People in Zongman are masters of copying romance novels

"Aoki-senpai, Ryo, is there anything you want to eat?"

As he spoke, he pushed the menu towards the two of them.

Aokisuke didn't have anything in particular he wanted to eat, but after taking a look at the menu, out of curiosity, he ordered a rather expensive portion of beef tongue.

Liang ordered some snacks.

After confirming that Pochi, Nijika, and Kita didn't need anything else, Aokisuke handed the menu to the waiter.

The waiter bowed and said, "I'll be right there, please wait a moment," and then quickly left the private room respectfully.

The service attitude is really good, and the food is served very quickly.

Perhaps to prove to customers that the ingredients are absolutely safe and clean, or perhaps to let customers understand the joy of doing it themselves, this barbecue restaurant is also one of the "self-service barbecue restaurants" currently on the market.

The ingredients were served very quickly. After we ordered, the waiter quickly returned to the private room with the ingredients.

Pork, beef, various vegetables, and the beef tongue that Aokisuke ordered out of curiosity.

The desserts and snacks that Miss Liang ordered did not arrive immediately, probably because they still needed to be processed.

Because the stove is preheated in advance, you can start baking immediately after the ingredients are brought in.

As the only male among the group, Aoki Jie originally planned to do the barbecue himself out of gentlemanly considerations.

But unfortunately, after watching three episodes of "Cooking++", Aokisuke has not yet learned any skills on how to grill meat well.

He picked up a piece of pork belly with a pair of tongs - he wasn't sure if it was pork belly, but at least Aokisuke thought it was pork belly.

After hesitating for a moment, he did not cut it with scissors. In Hongxia's slightly surprised look, he put it on the oven directly and without hesitation.

Hongxia was planning to interrupt, but before she could open her mouth, Aokisuke took action.

At the same time, Pochi-chan, who was on the innermost side and was about to reach out to take the kettle to pour water, was scalded by the splash of oil because of Aoki's actions.

The oil droplets are very small and will not cause burns.

However, those who have cooked but are not particularly proficient in cooking may know that even if you don’t get burned, the feeling of being burned by oil is definitely not pleasant...

She withdrew her hand quickly, somewhat confused, but looked at Aoki Jie with tearful eyes.

When his eyes met Pochi-chan's, he paused subconsciously and blinked.

Aoki Kei clearly read distrust in Goto Ichiri's eyes.

Without hesitation, he handed the job to Hongxia, then bowed decisively and apologized to Pochi-chan.

With Pochi-chan's response of "No, no, no, it's okay, I just got splashed", Aokisuke's first step in improving his cooking skills suffered a disastrous defeat.

......

Finally, it was confirmed that the piece of meat that was not cut at the beginning was not pork belly, and it was not even pork.

Beef brisket is completely different from pork belly.

In short, this barbecue was the same as last time, and Aokisuke was only responsible for eating.

In fact, although Aokisuke is not very good at cooking, he can still make simple Chinese dishes, such as scrambled eggs with tomatoes - etc...

Let’s not talk about how much it will be for now.

Hongxia was in charge of grilling the meat. Halfway through, the desserts and snacks that Liang had ordered were also brought up.

After eating for a while, Aokisuke suddenly thought about the special concert and broadcast.

Although all of this has been notified, the specific time has not been discussed with the girls.

He also told the specific time to several girls.

The first concert was still during the summer vacation, but the second concert and broadcast were already well within the school opening time.

But at this point, it would probably be completely fine to ask for leave - after the first special concert, not only would all the classmates be able to recognize a few people, but at least 80% of the classmates would know that a member of the band who left was their classmate.

Besides, if there is a reasonable reason, asking for leave is not a difficult thing...

I explained it briefly, and the girl had no objection.

Pochi-chan was a little bit stage-frightened when it came to a large crowd, but she had experienced this once before during the PVC performance, so she was able to overcome it for now.

There was no further discussion on this matter after that.

After the beef tongue was grilled, I tasted it and it tasted very good, worthy of being an expensive ingredient.

In the end, Miss Liang didn't eat much of the snacks she ordered, but she ate a lot of grilled vegetables.

It was around 9:30 when everyone finished their meal and paid the bill.

After leaving the barbecue restaurant, Xiduo went home first because his family was strict.

They had agreed to treat Miss Liang to ice cream, and Hongxia and Bochi-chan happened to be there too, so the four of them decided to return the same way and go to the ice cream shop again.

Aokisuke treated everyone, but since he had a smoothie, he didn't buy anything else for himself.

Miss Liang ordered a blue Hawaiian-flavored smoothie that he had just eaten, Hongxia ordered a bright orange sundae, and Pochi ordered a chocolate-flavored ice cream.

When I got the ice cream and walked out of the store, it suddenly started to rain outside for no reason.

The raindrops are not big, and in the early autumn when there is only a hint of coolness, they actually give you a comfortable feeling when they fall on your body.

But if you get wet for a while longer, you might catch a cold, and there’s no guarantee that the rain might get heavier later.

The tram station that Hongxia and Pochi were going to was not on the same route as the tram station that Aokisuke and Ryo were going to, so they said goodbye to them first.

Then I walked along the street for a while, and around ten o'clock, I arrived at the place where Aoki Suke and Yamada Ryo also had to turn off.

Putting the last spoonful of smoothie into his mouth, at the fork in the road, Yamada Ryo waved his hand gently.

"Goodnight, Suki-san."

Aoki nods and waves in response.

"Good night, Miss Liang from the Cat Party."

P.S. I refreshed my memory before watching this, and added an extra piece later to catch up with everyone. Please understand, I’m really sorry!!

Chapter 115: After the name change, the atmosphere suddenly became strange (1)

October 9th.

No longer busy with ensemble practice or anxiously waiting for the release of "Fireworks", No. 8 had a good day of rest, and Aoki Jie's life became visibly much easier.

Although I may continue to be busy in the future, at least I don’t have to maintain a repetitive life for now.

The weather was fine, and the temperature did not drop gradually. Instead, after one night, it suddenly became several degrees colder.

Of course, it is just an ordinary autumn temperature, but it is a little cooler compared to summer.

I slept very late last night, closing my eyes at around one o'clock. Because I had no other important things to do in the morning, I didn't go for a morning run for the first time in a long time, and woke up at nine o'clock.

After getting up, I washed and dressed. Considering that I had other things to do outside today, I took the trouble to take good care of my hair.

It's definitely time for a haircut.

While washing up, I started thinking about taking time to get a haircut.

Until the end, I still didn't decide on a time to go.

There's nothing important to do today, but I still need to go out.

One is about the rewards for the previous PVC project.

The winning prize is 600,000 yen, which needs to be collected at the PVC company. Aokisuke plans to go there and talk to the person in charge about matters related to the record.

This probably wouldn't take much time - there was no need to go to the PVC headquarters in Kyoto, the bonus could be collected at the Tokyo branch, and the same applies to the record issue; so both things could be done in about an hour.

In addition to going to PVC Records, the second thing is to end the band's online account.

The matter of 'ending the band and creating an online account' has been delayed for a long time. Most fans are urging them to do so. In addition, the special concert is about to begin, and they can accumulate more fans while taking advantage of the popularity. Therefore, Aokisuke is also ready to finalize this matter as soon as possible.

Speaking of concerts...

There are three days left until the end of the holiday, and only two days left until the first solo concert.

The venue for the concert had been decided early on, a fairly large gymnasium in Shinjuku District, and the show was set to start at 6pm.

As for the requirements -

Since both concerts were fully funded by the "Fireworks" production team, the primary goal was naturally to promote the currently released "Fireworks". Therefore, the special concerts tried to remove the band as much as possible and put the emphasis on the song "Fireworks".

Someone will take care of these things after tomorrow, so you don’t have to worry about them for now.

With all sorts of random thoughts in his mind, after washing up and cleaning the room a little, Aoki Jie went out with the packed garbage bag.

......

Collecting the bonus is definitely not troublesome, but it is not that easy either.

I took the tram to the PVC branch, briefly explained my purpose to the front desk, and waited for a while. Then the staff member responsible for these matters came to negotiate with Aoki Jie.

After Aokisuke provided his identification and signed the contract, he received the bonus.

The bonus will be transferred to Aokisuke's bank card within three working days, but unfortunately it cannot be withdrawn directly.

After finishing all this, I didn't leave in a hurry. As expected, I negotiated some issues related to the record and finally confirmed the deadline.

By the time we left the PVC branch, it was already 11:40.

They happened to have lunch on the way, and on the way back to the apartment, Aokisuke made a brief appointment with a few girls in the Line chat group. They were going to the livehouse in the afternoon to discuss the matter of creating a Twitter account for the band.

In the end, the specific time was set at two familiar points.

After a short break at noon, Aokisuke arrived at [STARRY] on time in the afternoon.

The other girls arrived earlier than him and were already sitting together chatting.

The store manager is not here today. I don’t know what he is busy with.

There were problems with the audio system before, and the ambient lighting was also broken, so maybe it’s time to purchase new equipment?

Qing Mujie didn't think about it, just said hello, walked to the table, sat down at his seat, and spoke.

"How was it? Did you come up with anything?"

This is asking about 'creating a Twitter account'.

Kita was very interested in this matter. After Aokisuke spoke, she was eager to respond.

"Senior Jie, do I need to create both a YouTube and Twitter account? Should I take some photos and upload them to my Twitter account?"

"Since we're going to start one, let's just start it together. As for taking pictures... I think that's fine."

Aoki Jie was somewhat uncomfortable with the title 'Senior Jie' and was stunned for a moment, but then he quickly reacted and responded.

But Hongxia, Liang and Pochi next to them were somewhat slow to react.

Pochi-chan was fine. After a moment of hesitation, she realized that Kita was calling Aokisuke.

Liang blinked, looked at Kita with some confusion, and then looked at Aokisuke with a little confusion.

And Hongxia——

After a moment of hesitation, she spoke directly with a questioning tone.

"Jie, Senior Jie?"

Maybe he was confused about the name, or curious why Kita suddenly called Aokisuke like that, and there didn't seem to be anything wrong with it.

But saying the words "Senior" so directly and with a hint of doubt made people a little unsure how to respond.

The air was silent for a moment.

Just before the atmosphere cooled, Aoki spoke up first, "It doesn't matter what you call me. You can call me whatever you want. Let's discuss the social media account issue first."

Changing the subject, he paused before continuing, "YouTube and Twitter accounts are pretty much the same. As long as you provide proof of identity and your historical achievements, you can get official verification. It might take some time, but before that, I can use the 'Suki-san' account to introduce the band's account."

Aoki had considered the issue of YouTube platform accounts before.

Unlike the time when there was only one person——

Now that he has joined the Ending Band, and since he is playing with the band and will be releasing an album later, most of the music will require the band's participation. After careful consideration, Aoki Jie decided to release some of his future music on the Ending Band's account.

I am currently active as a composer, guitarist, and keyboardist for the band, and I will put my identity as 'Suki-san' aside for now.

Of course, it’s not completely put aside.
