A band simulator, but all girl-heavy!

"...It seems, there seems to be a topic about Xiaokui."

"Eh?! Mine?"

Aoi pointed at herself in surprise and quickly took out her phone to check.

Among the related hot topics, in addition to the labels of several other bands, there is indeed content such as "優しい葵 (Gentle Aoi)", and many people even created a nickname called "地藏通の大天使".

The reason is very simple. A planning staff member who specializes in writing articles and music reviews about bands accidentally heard the conversation between Aoi and Su Shi and others when he passed by the band's rest area that day. He roughly recorded the content of the conversation and took a photo of the Mygo group at that time.

In addition, at the end of the performance that day, the official interview with Takamatsu Deng and others also confirmed this, and this matter became a hot topic and was widely circulated among the audience of the music festival that day.

Everyone seemed to agree that the band's talented violinist also had great expectations and goodwill when facing his competitors, and he helped Takamatsu Deng and others, who were in a slump at the time, to get out of the dejected atmosphere and successfully won the second place in the music festival.

She is cute, has a good figure, outstanding abilities, and a lively and cheerful personality. Who wouldn’t like such a person?

This kind of news made Aoi feel inexplicably ashamed. She quickly put her phone away, pretended to be nonchalant, smiled foolishly at everyone, and continued to show off her fries seriously.

After all, the people in the band didn't know about things like simulators, and after the performance, she ran to another unfamiliar band to encourage a group of strangers. If everyone really asked her about it, it would be difficult for her to explain.

Is she supposed to tell everyone that someone came to her in a dream and asked her to encourage everyone in Mygo, because this band will eventually become a competitor that promotes the growth of the end band.

I guess no one will believe it?

"Xiao Kui has become famous too...! There are still a lot of comments like, 'She's so cute, I love her so much'?"

Fortunately, no one questioned her, but unfortunately, Miss Kita, who was very keen on surfing the Internet, happily read the comments.

"[Girls who are gentle to everyone and as reliable as elders are usually called mothers.]"

"Aoi is the woman who can become my mother!"

"[If someone like that were put into a yuri work, he'd become a target of public criticism, right?]"

"Xiao Kui! Look, look! So many people are praising you!"

Kita's voice became more and more excited, and Aoi's head drooped lower and lower, like a student being publicly criticized by the teacher in class, almost burying her head in the table, with only her little red ears exposed.

"Stop, stop talking!"

Aoi's voice floated out softly, "I already know..."

Chapter 86: 115 million kilometers in length.

It was late at night, and the night sky of Tokyo was like a black curtain soaked in lights. Only a few dazzling first-magnitude stars could be vaguely seen. Apart from that, there was only the reflection of the city climbing up along the horizon.

Perhaps because no one was drinking, the celebration party ended very early and everyone dispersed and went home. As Pochi lived too far away and had to transfer many times, he decided to take the tram with Aoi.

Riding the train home in the dark, the two leaned against the window and watched the rapidly receding cityscape. Only then did Aoi feel a wave of exhaustion wash over her.

The excitement and happiness of the day suppressed all the tiredness and exhaustion, and it was only at this moment that they gradually took effect. My limbs ached, and my body felt as heavy as if it were filled with lead. Even my consciousness faded away with the slight shaking of the tram and the sound of the running rails.

Little Pochi is not good at chatting. After he made a rash decision to send Aoi home, he felt a strange feeling of excitement and regret.

On the one hand, the feeling of being alone with Aoi and sitting close to her was very intoxicating. She could intuitively feel her arms touching Aoi's soft body from time to time, and her beautiful beige hair would occasionally sway gently, brushing against her skin, leaving behind a charming air with a light floral scent.

But on the other hand, although she was sitting with Aoi, her mind was blank. She didn't know how to find topics to talk about, let alone how to have a pleasant conversation with Aoi. In the past, when they were together, it was Aoi who led the conversation, but at this moment, Aoi didn't say a word for some reason, just lowered her head and remained silent.

It was excruciating, utterly excruciating. She spent every second desperately trying to figure out how to start a conversation with Aoi. At the same time, she kept wondering if Aoi was being so silent because she was just too boring. Should she say something? But what if she said something and it didn't lead to any further conversation? Wouldn't that be even more awkward?

She racked her brains, even including some of the comedy variety shows and rakugo she had watched recently, but she never dared to speak. When she finally thought of a topic to discuss music, a sudden heavy touch on her shoulder instantly shattered all her thoughts.

Soft beige hair cascaded down Pochi's shoulders, blending with the long pink hair on one side of her. In her peripheral vision, she could faintly see Aoi's fair cheeks, her long eyelashes that closed steadily, and her pink lips between the hair. She could feel Aoi's quiet and slow breathing blooming in the air around her.

Little Bochi could feel that she had turned into a statue at this moment. The feeling of happiness instantly turned into a hard shell that wrapped around her tightly. Although it was firm, she could not move.

Aoi's weight was very light, but the weight pressing on her heart at this moment seemed to surpass the tram under her feet.

Aoi, seems to have fallen asleep... Is she too tired?

During the day, she worked so hard to comfort everyone, and took the initiative to share the pressure with everyone. Afterwards, she also went to comfort her former band members.

She is really hardworking and gentle...but will such a person like Aoi ever force herself?

What happened between Aoi and her former band? Aoi, ever so gentle, was willing to comfort them, to cheer them up and hope they would succeed, but she didn't want to return to the band. And, wasn't that the band calling out for Aoi on stage today? Did they want Aoi to return?

Will Aoi return to that band one day?

Although she was so nervous that she couldn't move, and even didn't dare to scratch her cheek when it felt itchy, such a strange fantasy emerged in Xiao Pochi's mind, and even drove a non-existent sense of crisis, making her dare not imagine such a future.

If it weren't for Aoi, she would never have been able to form a band.

Even though that band looked pathetic, Saotome Aoi was the only one she was absolutely unwilling to give up. Therefore, she had to make sure Saotome Aoi was willing to stay in the band.

As long as I can realize Aoi's dream and let the band continue to go further and higher, I will definitely be able to keep Xiao Kui...

Goto Ichiri tilted his head slightly, cautiously looking at Aoi's peaceful and lovely sleeping face. Even though he was thinking about such a serious topic, he suddenly reached out and gently poked Aoi's soft cheek, as if possessed by a ghost.

Very soft and elastic, like jelly, but full of warmth...

What a great touch.

She couldn't help but think.

But then, the long eyelashes like sunflower wings trembled slightly, and little Pochi realized how shameless he was doing. He quickly retracted his hand and turned away with a red face.

The train was still speeding along the railway, but it could not leave the night view of Tokyo behind, just like the burning little thought that once arose in Pochi's heart, it never dissipated.

……

After returning home, Aoi couldn't help but yawn and fell headfirst onto her soft big bed.

She had accidentally fallen asleep on the train with Pochi before. She had wanted to chat with Pochi and see if she was free to visit her home and go on a pilgrimage to the magnificent Eight Scenic Spots of Kanazawa, but it seemed that there would be no chance this time.

After being woken up at the station, little Pochi started to stammer for inexplicable reasons. Although she usually stammered as well, the difference was obvious. It was as if something unspeakable had happened. Her face was red and she lowered her head, as if she would melt if Aoi asked any more questions.

What happened?

She just felt that although little Pochi was very funny, if she continued to question him in that state, she might really melt away, so she finally gave up.

...Could Pochi have kissed me too? No way, no way. With little Pochi's guts, it's impossible.

It was already after dinner, and she had dealt with her mother's strict daily questioning. Although she occasionally skipped some extracurricular courses, she had completed them generally well. Therefore, when she lay down on the bed to rest, she finally remembered an important thing.

It seemed like she hadn't simulated in a long time.

Originally, she was just too exhausted from training and daily classes, but after the music festival, so many things happened that made her pay more attention to the existence of simulation.

Although some unpleasant things happened between Mygo and Crychic in the simulator, Aoi didn't hate the girls whom she regarded as friends after all. Now that she had joined the End Band, she couldn't help them by directly forming a band.

Then the only remaining method is to explore in the simulator and then try to help them in reality.

By the way... she also wanted to make up for the guilt of not being able to form a band with them in reality in the simulator.

Thinking of this, Aoi started the band simulator for the first time in a long time.

Golden Week continues, and at Lixi's urging, you've finally begun your original primary goal—intensive training. However, you'll only train briefly during the day before taking a break, still focusing on relaxation. Despite Lixi's constant complaints, everyone's mood is visibly brightening.

It was during this time, through the reflection of these fond memories, that you decided to begin writing new music for future performances.

Entering the song production phase...

Calculating member favorability...

Song settlement in progress...

Trigger a special plot!

One morning, amidst the refreshing morning light and birdsong, inspiration struck you and you wrote down the lyrics like an essay in your notebook. Then after breakfast, you handed it to Deng and told her that this was the first version of the lyrics you had thought of.

Gao Songdeng took the notebook with a nervous expression and began to read it carefully, with a crystal light flashing in his amber eyes.

"Is this... a song written by Xiaokui?"

She held the notebook in her hands, feeling its weight for a moment, her eyes fixed on the song's title.

"115 Million Kilometers of Film". 】

87

Chapter 87 A song written by everyone together.

"115 Million Kilometres of Film" was created by 'Official Higeman Dism', one of the most popular J-pop bands. The song is romantic and heartfelt, and the lyrics transform the heavy vows into many metaphors for intentions, deeply emphasizing the emotions contained therein.

A one-hour movie requires about 1.6 kilometers of film. 115 million kilometers of film is equivalent to about years, which is generally the length of a person's life.

There is no mention of a lifetime, but the title of the song has already told the whole story of a lifetime. It is like a confession at the band level, telling the companions loudly that we will be like this song, like 115 million kilometers of film, and will never stop until we finish this journey.

Our journey will be compiled into a wonderful movie from 115 million kilometers of film.

Aoi was very surprised when she saw this song. She had heard this song in her previous life and had some understanding of the Bearded Man Band, which was nicknamed the "heavy man band". She knew that they had declared on stage that they would form a band for life, but she didn't think this song was very suitable for Mygo at the moment.

Although Takamatsu Deng has also made similar declarations, her style is ultimately more inclined towards emotional hardcore songs, which is what we often hear as "Emotion". Most of her performances will show strong emotions, including but not limited to shouting out lyrics at the top of her lungs and directly reciting monologues.

This type of song is often full of emotional release, which is very inconsistent with the tender Japanese romantic style of Bearded Man, and does not seem like something that Deng could write.

However, after Aoi carefully looked at the lyrics displayed in the simulator, she roughly understood what was going on.

What she wrote was not the original lyrics of the Bearded Man Band, but a very fragmented original version that could almost be described as the "steel frame and foundation of the lyrics". She didn't even consider the rhyme of the lyrics. She simply wrote down her thoughts as poetry.

She finally understood the purpose of this 'special plot' in the simulator. It was probably to calculate the favorability of other members. If it was high enough, it would trigger bond support and provide a bonus for her songwriting, but in essence, she still had to write the song.

The lyrics, after being revised by her, are indeed very similar to the sunny and cheerful style of the bearded man.

[Deng expressed her excitement and joy to you. Such romantic lyrics undoubtedly overlap with the "lifetime" in her mind. Singing out the oath with lyrics is also her wish. She told you that she wanted to write this song no matter what, even though the current lyrics are full of blank spaces and verses of pure emotional output.

You also told her that you liked the song very much and promised to write a perfect version of it.

Perform song settlement...

Trigger a special plot! 】

Why else?

She almost forgot what the favorability levels of all the members were in the simulator last time, but she remembered that Su Shi's was over 90.

And that kiss that had left a deep impression on her...

Is he going to do something weird this time?

You thought the lyrics and title of this song were very meaningful and suitable for your band, so you told your thoughts to other band members at the beginning of the training camp that day.

You decide to work together on this song, proving your promise to be together forever. You and Deng will write and finalize the lyrical framework for the theme, while the others will add their own ideas to the lyrics, ultimately creating a collective composition.

For the band at that time, the meaning of this song is no less than the "promise of lifelong togetherness" for all members.

Everyone agreed with this decision and actively put forward their final ideas for the lyrics.

The song deduction has been completed and the final settlement is in progress.

Thanks to this bond support effect, inspiration bursts forth! Unlock the full version of the song. (After this session, a small amount of composition and lyrics skills will be added.)

Due to the great success of the songwriting, all members received a favorability bonus: Takamatsu Touma's favorability +6, currently 78, Chihaya Aine's favorability +4, currently 74, Kaname Rakuna's favorability +4, currently 64, Shiina Tatsuki's favorability +3, currently 60, Nagasaki Motoyo's favorability +2, currently 88...]

Ms. Su Shi's favorability is still increasing.

She was only eighty years old, yet she dared to come over and kiss her secretly in the middle of the night. Aoi couldn't imagine what she would do when she was ninety or even a hundred. Now it seems that too high a favorability is not a good thing, as it may arouse special emotions in certain characters.

It would be fine if everything was just a game, but the problem is that Aoi has realized that everyone is real. If any ambiguous behavior beyond friendship occurs, she will feel very uncomfortable and even feel like she has betrayed her friends.

Moreover, the higher the favorability, the more ominous premonition she had. It must be an illusion.

[In the end, the lyrics were completely written by you and Takamatsu Deng, and the composition and arrangement work was also undertaken by you and Shiina Tatsuki, who was studying composition. The initial version of the song was written before returning to Tokyo.

On the last day of the training camp, Aine suggested that everyone put all training aside for a while and relax. This time, even Riki agreed. Finally, after everyone's discussion, they unanimously decided to take the few tents left at your family's villa and camp near Lake Motosu in Fujikawaguchiko Town. They would then return to Tokyo by bus the next morning.

Your group happily took the Minobu Line to the vicinity of Lake Motosu. The weather was clear and in the distance, Mount Fuji, like a jade fan, sat on the clear surface of Lake Motosu. The reflection in the lake was connected with Mount Fuji, almost forming a perfect big diamond.

Aiyin was clumsily setting up the tent with Riki's dissatisfied help, Deng was busy helping out, Sushi was packing everyone's luggage, Lenai ran to a cool shade of a tree and drank the matcha soda you just bought for her, and you stood not far away, taking pictures of their figures, which became eternal as photos.

Bonfire, camping meals, hide-and-seek in the woods, naked-eye stargazing, bedtime stories...you had a very fulfilling night.
