On the stage, Boqi didn't want to say a word because she was afraid that she would vomit if she opened her mouth.

"Huh? You said you wanted to sing lead guitar before, but now you don't even want to sing backing vocals?"

“Well, I really can’t o(╥﹏╥)o”

Li Xi covered her head with her hands. She really couldn't understand the "Aine" in front of her.

Originally, Lixi thought she was just an amateur who loved to show off, but thanks to her, the band was reunited, so Lixi never planned to get rid of "Ain", but Ain's performance today has overturned her perception.

"I get it. Forget about the harmony. If Stray Cat doesn't come tomorrow, I want to prepare a backup plan. Can you take on the lead guitar part, not only the solo, but also the guitar harmony and rhythm?"

"Ah... No, no problem."

This is actually not very difficult for Pochi.

"Ano-chan has changed..."

On the way home, Takamatsu Deng was playing with the stone he found on the day he met Aine, and suddenly spoke without any warning.

Li Xi, who was walking in front to escort Gao Songdeng home, was stunned.

I thought it was referring to Pochi's level.

"Ah... That girl has definitely changed. Even if she leaves us now, she probably won't be rejected if she joins some famous band. Given her personality, she's likely to do that. After all, she loves to attract attention."

Riki was still looking at Pochi based on his previous impression of Aine.

But Gao Songdeng just shook his head.

"Ano-chan, she's very happy when she plays guitar... She wasn't like that before, she played guitar for the band, but now she feels a bit like when Lenai-chan plays guitar, she plays for herself."

Because Gao Songdeng's words lacked some preface language, Li Xi did not understand what Gao Songdeng wanted to say.

"Tomori, do you also think this guy will leave?"

Li Xi could only think that Takamatsu Deng wanted to say that Pochi would also change.

"..."

Takamatsu Deng looked at Lixi with confusion, not understanding why she associated this band with Pochi leaving home.

She simply meant that playing guitar wasn't torture for Pochi, and that was how Takamatsu Deng felt today.

And the other side

Long-term vegetarian did not separate from Pochi at the station but took her to a milk tea shop.

"...Ano-chan has really gotten better. I feel like it's a bit of a waste for her to be on our team."

"How, how could this be! For someone as naive as me to be willing to team up with me, I'm already bursting with gratitude!"

Pochi said excitedly to Nagasaki Suyo.

For Pochi, it seems that he is most comfortable when he is with Nagasaki Suyo. There is a soft atmosphere around her, which makes Pochi feel very comfortable.

"Are you the type to be so self-deprecating? There's no need to be so self-deprecating. I feel like your skills are already at a professional level, Ano-chan~~. Speaking of which, Riki is really something. Even though Ano-chan was so amazing today, you still said such excessive things."

Nagasaki Suyo was embarrassed at this point, and she even suspected that the "Aine" in front of her was doing it on purpose. However, she didn't show it, and continued to try to make her feel proud, and then began to dislike the band.

But her hidden meaning was completely useless to Pochi. Her understanding of social language was about the same as Takamatsu Deng's, and she could only understand the most superficial meaning of the words.

Although we consider the possibility of deeper meaning, it is generally completely wrong.

"I, I will do my best to satisfy Miss Lixi."

"what?"

Nagasaki Suyo didn't know that as a guitar expert, Pochi was mistaken for a rookie by Hongxia and Liang from the beginning, but she didn't mind this kind of self-deprecation.

Extra: The World of Lonely Rock

STARRY

Today was originally the day that Pochi was scheduled to work. According to the past, there would be a cute girl who never spoke and worked tremblingly in the drinking room, but today the situation was a little different.

"Welcome~, what would you like to drink? Coke without ice? Okay, I'll take a drink coupon from you. Please wait, Hongxia-chan will have a Coke~~. What would the person behind you like~~Draft beer? Excuse me, could you please confirm your age..."

Looking at Aine who was welcoming the guests warmly, Ijichi Seika walked to the door of the water room and secretly asked Hongxia who was making drinks.

"Is Pochi-chan a different person today? I thought it was Kita who came."

In Ijichi Hoshika's eyes, she couldn't notice that Pochi had been replaced. In her memory, Pochi's appearance had been automatically replaced by Aine.

Only those who have had sex with Chaoyang can resist this influence.

Hongxia complained about this in her heart.

[It is indeed a different person.]

However, an explanation was given on the surface.

"Pochi has been working here for a long time, and he even performed on stage. This is normal~~"

"It doesn't look right... She's already dragging her parents along with the guests..."

Ijichi Hoshika was sweating profusely -_-|| and pointed at Aine who was chatting.

"Eh? Did you come all the way from Aomori Hirosaki just to see the band? You're such a huge fan... I've wanted to go to Aomori too. I heard the apples there are delicious..."

Hongxia could only quickly run to Aine's side and whisper a reminder.

"Hey, Aine-chan, don't help Pochi make too many friends. When she comes back, she won't know how to handle all those relationships and her brain will just freeze and melt on the spot."

281. Nagasaki Suyo's unexpected surprise

Chaoyang in Ikebukuro came out of a Chinese restaurant burping.

After declining invitations from his friends to go to nightclubs and entertainment shops, Chaoyang began to wander around Ikebukuro for the first time in a long time. This was a habit he had developed when his Japanese was not very good in real life. He would come to Ikebukuro to find a Chinese person to cut his hair when he was on vacation, and he would also come here to Ikebukuro to get a mobile phone card and internet. However... it seems that there are not many Chinese people in Ikebukuro in this world.

And he also noticed something strange.

"Aren't there too many people carrying musical instruments on the street..."

It feels like every few steps you take in Chaoyang you’ll see someone carrying a guitar or bass.

"Have I landed in some kind of band music anime? I'm actually not that interested in music anime. I think I've only watched Lonely Rock in the last few years, and that was because of Pochi..."

"Forget it, I'm just sitting around doing nothing..."

At this time, Chaoyang was also near the subway station, and I planned to ask someone about the largest LIVEHOUSE nearby.

"Ah...Excuse me, could you please ask for directions?"

Just then, Chaoyang saw a girl with long brown hair in school uniform walking towards him with a musical instrument on her back. Chaoyang saw that she had a kind face and walked in an elegant manner, and thought she was a person who was easy to talk to.

"Ah? Are you having any problems?"

The person Chaoyang was asking was Nagasaki Suyo, who had just separated from Pochi. After being stunned for a moment by Chaoyang's words, she immediately responded with a smile and did not refuse.

Because of her habits, even if someone is a stranger, if the other person takes the initiative to interact with her, she will respond to the needs and expectations of others.

"Excuse me, I saw that you seem to be in a band, and I thought you would know the area better, so I'm asking you to bother me. Could you tell me about a famous live house nearby or one that's popular with people?"

Chaoyang touched the back of his head, looking very embarrassed, and kept bowing his head while speaking.

"Ah... I see. Let me see. If you're around here, the second CIRCLE location is called RiNG Large Livehouse. I'll take you there."

This is Nagasaki Suyo's habit, she is subconsciously willing to help others.

"How could I be so embarrassed? I can just use my phone's directions and go there myself. Thank you so much... Oh, there's a vending machine over there, anything you want to drink?"

"No need to worry about it, please be careful on the road."

Nagasaki Suyo bowed politely and was about to walk into the underground station, when Chaoyang's phone rang.

"Hello, this is Toyokawa Chaoyang. Ah, it's you guys. I said I wouldn't go. I'm not in the mood today. I'm just hanging up like that. It's so annoying. Just consider it my compensation for breach of contract. I'll reimburse your expenses today. Please don't go too far, or we'll lose our friendship."

"Toyokawa..."

Nagasaki Suyo, who was about to walk down the stairs, turned her head away immediately when she heard the sensitive words.

"The surname Toyokawa isn't uncommon, but...what if...what if...even if there's only a 0.1% chance of getting closer to Saki-chan. I've been asking Mutsu-chan to contact Ssaki-chan, but..."

At this point, Nagasaki Suyo felt a little distressed and confused about the cute, petite girl in her mind who looked like a doll. Why didn't she want to understand and help her? She was clearly working hard to reconcile them, so why didn't she want to help? She had even formed a band, and all she had left was to take Saki back.

[I can still rely on myself after all... I'll revive Crychik later!]

Just when Chaoyang finished the call and opened Google Maps to search for RING.

"...Ah~no~~~ I'm so sorry if I made a mistake, but do you know a girl named Toyokawa Shoko?"

Chaoyang's sight moved forward slightly, the friendly girl just now

"Ah... Toyokawa Shoko... Toyokawa Shoko, ah..."

Chaoyang didn't react to the name at first, but after repeating it twice, he remembered that it was the girl who was at his doorstep today, his nominal cousin.

"Are you talking about the cute girl with long blue hair and ribbons tied on both sides?"

"Ah, yes!"

Nagasaki Suyo was very excited inside, but she tried to appear elegant and decent on the outside.

【I didn't expect that we actually knew each other.】

"She, uh, that's my cousin... maybe."

[That's great! I didn't expect he's a relative. If I can establish a good relationship with him, I won't have to contact Saki-chan through Mu-chan.]

Nagasaki Sushi's new plan had already formed in his heart.

"I'm Saki-chan's friend and bandmate. I don't know if you've heard of me, but my name is Nagasaki Suyo. Ah, it's not appropriate to talk here. You wanted to go to the RING, right? I'll take you there."

Nagasaki Suyo, combing her hair with her hands, walked very naturally to the front of the rising sun.

Chaoyang originally planned to refuse. After all, she looked like a high school student and it would not be nice for her to come home so late. But since she was so proactive, he couldn't refuse, so he had to put the phone back in his pocket.

What's this girl up to? She's full of honorifics and wants to lead the way... Is this a honey trap? I'm overthinking it. She was just asking about Toyokawa Shoko, so she must have some connection to her.

"RING is in Higashi-Ikebukuro, it's closer this way~"

Warm and friendly Nagasaki Sushi leads the way

Nagasaki Suyo did not anxiously ask about Toyokawa Shoko's situation, but instead asked about Chaoyang's various situations and chatted with him to get closer to him.

"Is there any band you want to see at the LIVEHOUSE?"

"Ah... no, just looking around."

Chaoyang answered absentmindedly, still wondering what Nagasaki Suyo was trying to do.

"Is that so? Among the RING resident bands, Afterglow and Poppin'Party are quite famous, and many people come here just for them."

------------------------------------

Aiyinjia

"Ano? You're back~~"

After playing the role of Aine for a day, Pochi looked up the address on his National Health Insurance card in his wallet and finally walked back to his home.

The person who came forward was Aine’s mother.

She greeted gently.

"Ah... I, I'm back..."

Pochi still looked nervous after the whole day and hadn't fully put himself into Aine's identity, so he was often a little hesitant when answering.

Only after returning did Pochi have the time to take a good look at his home.

"Well…"

[It’s much better than my family’s conditions…]

Although both Aine's house and Pochi's house are single-family houses in Japan, there are differences between them.

Pochi didn't know much about building materials, but at first glance, both the exterior and interior of the house were more exquisite than his own.

[Come to think of it, I have a few designer bags in my room too… Hmm]

"Well, then, Mom, how much is our annual income?"
