People in Zongman are masters of copying romance novels

He had originally had no hope in life, but this couple gave him complete care and made him feel the feeling of family love.

Although these two people are busy with work on weekdays, they still give every bit of family love they deserve.

However, good times don’t last long.

In the second year after adopting the boy, the couple died in a car accident on their way home.

The last words the couple left for the boy were the words on the phone, "How about going home to eat Sukiyaki tonight?"

After learning that his adoptive parents had passed away, the boy felt that his life had suddenly fallen into darkness.

After taking three days off from school, in order to escape reality, he forced himself to go to school and try to forget the pain.

But the news that the boy was once an orphan was spread to his classmates.

The hemp rope is cut at the delicate point, and bad luck finds the poor.

Having just lost his adoptive parents, he was bullied and ridiculed as a "savage without biological parents."

The pain of losing family affection, being bullied, and being ridiculed as a savage.

These injuries were like a sharp blade, pushing him to the brink of death.

So, after losing all hope and unable to bear the pressure of living, the young man prepared to end his own life with his own hands.

then,

While looking for a rope to hang himself, the boy accidentally bumped into the refrigerator and saw the slightly spoiled Sukiyaki ingredients left for him by his adoptive parents.

Tofu, vegetables, eggs, beef...

And a sticky note.

The words on the sticky note were written by my adoptive mother.

[Sorry, we were busy with work today and didn't have time to get back. The Sukiyaki recipe is very simple. I have it in the recipe book in the cabinet. You can just follow it~]

[Even though we're not home, we still have to eat well! Remember to eat more vegetables!]

If the foster parents were busy working overtime that day, they would probably call the boy and tell him, "They left some food in the refrigerator."

Looking at the handwriting left by his mother, the boy, who was so sad that he couldn't even cry, burst into tears.

He thought that his adoptive parents had a car accident on the way because they were busy going home to have dinner with him.

He thought that if he were not there, his adoptive parents might be happily eating Sukiyaki together now.

Then the boy thought of the words "Eat well" on the sticky note.

So in the end, the boy gave up on suicide.

At the end of the script is a line marked as narration:

[For some people, life is painful, and leaving may be easier than living.

But persisting is often a choice.

At least, there was someone who made you eat well, loved you, and didn't want to see you commit suicide.

There are many choices, please find the fulcrum.

The chirping of cicadas in summer, the snowflakes in winter, and the smiles on faces.

So, please don't give up on your life, please try hard, try hard, try hard to live on.

......

After reading it, he took a deep breath, because after reading the entire script, the thoughts in Aoki's mind gradually became clearer.

But he didn't think about it carefully. He just paused for a few seconds and then opened the second attachment.

The second attachment is a video of about ten minutes in length.

There is no dubbing or soundtrack, but the graphics are exquisite and the smoothness is extremely high.

Without a doubt, this is the short film produced by KL Society: "He".

Even without dubbing and soundtrack, Aokisuke watched the short film again.

After he finished reading, he closed his eyes slightly.

KL's production quality is indeed very high.

The main storyline is clear, the intention is clear, and the emotions are well rendered.

But this is just a video without music or dubbing.

No wonder Nanasaki Uesugi was eliminated – with this quality, if they hadn’t found the perfect music to go with it, the producers of this short film probably wouldn’t have given up even if they were beaten to death…

The video on the phone screen was frozen at the moment it finished playing.

On the screen, there are subtitles that should be read by the narrator.

So, please don't give up on your life. Please try hard, try hard, try hard to live on.

Looking at the subtitles on the phone, Aoki Jie took a deep breath again, and then locked the phone screen.

Right now, he no longer had to think about which song to choose.

And the quality of this short film is indeed worthy of this song——

Mika Nakashima, "I Once Thought of Ending It All."

Chapter 159 This music...

There are about three weeks left until the deadline for KL's submission project.

There might still be time, but there was no need to consider whether or not to avoid Imai Takashi.

Two weeks is not enough for the closing band to perform "I Once Thought of Ending It All" perfectly.

Even after three weeks, Aoki Jie felt that it was somewhat inadequate.

But the deadline was there, and there was nothing he could do...

However, three weeks is more than enough time for the band to master the piece. Even though they cannot play it almost perfectly, they can still perform it to a good level. Judging from the current level of the band, they can still do it.

And now...

Aoki Jie was completely sure in his heart which music to choose. Now all that was left to do was to inform the other members of the band about this plan.

On weekdays, the girls from the band would take time out to practice at [STARRY] in the afternoon. Aoki Suke might not be there most of the time. If you want to meet the girls, you probably only need to go to the livehouse in the afternoon.

After making a travel plan in his mind, Aokijie called out the [Love Simulation Game] in his heart, opened the points mall, and exchanged a copy of the music score of "I Once Thought of Ending It All".

It was already eleven o'clock.

He hadn't had time to eat lunch yet, so considering this, he went out and headed back to the convenience store...

......

At noon, I bought a very cheap bento at a convenience store and had a simple meal.

After a short lunch break, at three o'clock in the afternoon, Aokisuke left the apartment and headed towards [STARRY].

Because I just came back from Kyoto and brought back a lot of local specialties. Thinking that we would meet later, I just picked up a bunch of things I bought in Kyoto.

After a bumpy ten-minute train ride, we arrived at Shimokitazawa Station, which I hadn't seen for a long time.

After leaving the station, I walked along the street for a while and arrived at [STARRY].

I pushed the door open, entered the store, and immediately heard a familiar voice.

The lazy and nonchalant one is the manager of Xingge.

"Sorry, our store is not open yet. Please come back after 6pm."

There is no need to think about it, Manager Xingge said this without even raising his head.

"Good afternoon, Manager."

Aoki responded without paying attention to the words of sending him away.

Aokisuke's voice is very recognizable. His clear and refreshing voice will definitely leave a deep impression on people.

So after hearing his words, Ichichi Xingge reacted.

[STARRY] Behind the bar, the store manager was stunned for a moment, then immediately looked up. After noticing that it was indeed Aokisuke, she raised her eyebrows.

"Wow, rare guest, you're back."

There was a hint of teasing in the words. Aoki was silent for a moment and chose not to continue the sentence: "Ah...well, I just came back from Kyoto and brought some local specialties."

He replied, and then walked to the bar and took out some of the specialties he brought. "These are matcha strawberry cakes I bought specially. I think they will suit your taste, Manager."

In Aoki's impression, Ijichi Hoshika's taste is very similar to his own. She also likes sweets and even likes sugar more than him...

Over there, Ijichi Hoshige's mood suddenly improved a lot, but she still denied it with a bit of tsundereness: "At my age... I don't really like sweets, but Aoki, you bought it..."

Aoki Jie ignored him and instead asked where Hongxia and the others were.

After being told that he was practicing music in the recording studio, he simply said something and went to the recording studio with his things.

When I pushed the door and walked into the recording studio, several girls were practicing the previous song "If I Could Turn into a Constellation".

After seeing Aoki Suke enter the room, several people stopped playing their instruments at the same time.

"Good afternoon, Senior Jie!" Kita greeted him.

"Good afternoon." Aokisuke responded, and then greeted Hongxia, Pochi, and Liang in turn.

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, then put aside the bag he had been carrying all the way.

"There are souvenirs in there, matcha desserts, good luck cherry bells and so on. Oh, and the marriage amulet that Kita asked for."

Because they bought a lot of desserts, Aokisuke was too lazy to distinguish them, so he just let the girls choose for themselves.

The girls rushed over.

"Ah...it's the same lucky cherry blossom bell that Hong Xia bought."

“I bought so many desserts!”

"Oh! Pochi-chan, look, this little matcha dango is so cute!"

"It would be so pitiful if he was eaten..."

Pochi-chan sympathized with the matcha dumpling that looked like a slime.

While the few of them were choosing, Aokisuke picked up his guitar.

I relaxed my mind a little, thought about it, and played a few times subconsciously.

After several people had chosen theirs, he spoke.

"It's been about a month since I last performed 'Fireworks', and then... a few days ago, I received a message from Director Masami Nagano—"

"The famous animation company KL Studio created a short film, but it was currently lacking a theme song, so KL Studio spent a huge amount of money to hold a submission contest..."

Several girls fell silent after hearing Aokisuke speak. Aokisuke's voice paused for a moment, so Hongxia subconsciously took over the conversation.

"So, should we try to participate?"

"Yeah." Aokisuke nodded.

"Huh?" Kita Ikuyo wondered. "Are there any requirements for themes for animated shorts? What about deadlines?"

"Well..." Kita's question hit the nail on the head, and Aokisuke responded, "The deadline is three weeks from now, and the theme requirements for the animated short film..."

“The theme requirements are [Please look towards a better future] and [Please strive to survive].”

Aokisuke spoke, then paused for a moment, picked up the guitar in his arms and put it aside, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened Line, and sent several files in the [End Band Chat Group].

"As for the music... I've already composed it. It's called 'I Once Thought of Ending It All'."

"Have I ever thought about ending it all?" Hong Xia repeated in a puzzled tone.

Ryo and Pochi simply took out their phones and opened the group chat.

And Kita——

After hearing the name of the music, she was slightly stunned.

After a slight hesitation, she took out her phone, opened the group chat, and then opened the file sent by Aokisuke.

The lyrics and music are eye-catching.
