In the music series, the male protagonist writes a self-help manual for the inner world

Before she collapsed from malnutrition and excessive fatigue, she still told others that she was doing very well. She was such a serious tsundere.

How could he possibly ask me for a job?

"Gui'an, I have learned some knowledge about musical instruments before."

"Can I teach Xiduo the basics of guitar theory?"

"For guitar beginners, just the most basic instruction is enough to meet their needs."

But if you think about it carefully, this makes sense. After all, teaching a guitar novice who has no knowledge of the basics of music theory is a very painful and torturous thing.

Chen Xinghua has a deep understanding of this.

....And he doesn't have extra time to teach Xiduo guitar now. He may be free on weekends and during lunch breaks at school, but he definitely doesn't have time on weekdays.

Because he also needs to take time out to attend the band's practice, and also take time out to deepen his relationship with Aine and Deng, so that he can more easily obtain information about Yuqiu.

However, the reason why Toyokawa Shoko took the initiative to ask Chen Xinghua for a job was because she knew that Chen Xinghua would try his best to give her money in the most reasonable way possible.

So instead of sitting there and waiting for him to rack his brains to give you money, it is better to take the initiative to find something that can help him.

At least in this way, it is Shoko Toyokawa who has the initiative, not Chen Xinghua.

"If Xiangzi could help me teach Xiduo the most basic music theory, it would be a great help and save me a lot of time and energy."

"As for compensation, I will pay according to the average salary of a musician teacher."

...Well, Xiangzi is also a student of Yuqiu, right? I'll ask her later if anything particularly strange has happened in Yuqiu Academy recently.

Someone is coming. Chen Xinghua pressed the power button on the side of his phone, completely drowning out the news about Toyokawa Shoko in the darkness.

"Hello, hello." Nagasaki Suyo looked at Chen Xinghua and said, great, I finally found him.

Chen Xinghua spread out the menu and did not respond to Nagasaki Suye's voice.

Because he didn't know Nagasaki Suyo, he thought Nagasaki Suyo was talking to her friend.

"Three cups of Earl Grey tea... maybe Deng doesn't like black tea."

"Two cups then."

Seeing that Chen Xinghua didn't respond to her for a long time, Nagasaki Sushi couldn't help but said, "Well, I'm Deng's friend."

Chen Xinghua looked up at Nagasaki Suye, a woman wearing a school uniform he didn't recognize.

But why did Deng’s friends come to talk to him?

"Is something wrong? Or are you here looking for the light?"

Nagasaki Suyo pulled out a chair from the table and sat down.

"I want to meet Xiao Deng's friends."

By the way, let’s take a look at what kind of person Xiaodeng’s friend is.

Is he a scumbag who seduces ignorant girls, or...

Nagasaki Suyo clasped her fingers, but her eyes scanned Chen Xinghua from head to toe.

A person's dress and appearance can reveal his or her personality to a certain extent.

His clothes are not particularly fashionable... Summer sportswear can't be considered fashionable at all, at most it can only be considered particularly convenient for movement.

There was no trace of makeup on his face... You know, some men who care a lot about their appearance will spend a lot of time and money on their faces, but he is not that kind of person.

Are you a practical person who doesn’t care much about appearance?

Chen Xinghua handed the menu to Nagasaki Sushi.

"Want to order anything? It's my treat."

Nagasaki Suyo fiddled with his fingertips. It seemed that he was very willing to spend money, but he would not spend too much time on clothes.

It turns out that it was Lixi's turn to run in the outfield today.

Nagasaki Suyo caught sight of a familiar figure.

"I want the old way."

Shiina Riki wrote down Nagasaki Suyo's request, and then stared at Chen Xinghua.

This guy, we just talked about lights, right?

Chen Xinghua placed his hands flat on the table.

"Then I'll have two cups of Earl Grey tea, one with extra sugar."

....What's wrong? You haven't left yet.

Chen Xinghua frowned and looked at Shiina Riki.

"Well, we've already ordered."

So could you please come back to the counter right away and bring up our order?

And Shiina Riki still stayed where he was.

"The lantern you were talking about was the Takamatsu lantern, right?"

Chen Xinghua straightened his back.

"Yes, who are you?"

So is this another friend of the lamp?

...Why are there friends of mine everywhere?

"That's very unservice-oriented." Nagasaki Suyo said with a smile.

Shiina Riki walked behind the counter with a reluctant look on his face.

"understood."

Chen Xinghua glanced at the screen that was lit up by the notification message.

....Is it coming?

"Um, is the shop assistant just now also a friend of Deng?"

50. Lifelong Band

Nagasaki Suyo supported her face with her hands.

"Lixi, Xiaodeng and I were members of the same band before."

But everything changed after Shoko Toyokawa quit "CRYCHIC" on that rainy day.

Xiangzi, where are you? Why did you quit the team? Why didn’t you reply to me? Where did you go?

Chen Xinghua put his phone aside.

"'CRYCHIC'? I think Deng mentioned that to me before."

“But it seems like this band is over.”

It’s not over yet. As long as I find Xiangzi, I will be able to bring her and everyone else back to revive “CRYCHIC”.

Nagasaki Suyo fiddled with her fingers vigorously.

As long as we find where Xiangzi is, everything will be fine.

Chen Xinghua wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"I almost forgot, my name is Chen Xinghua, and I'm a freshman at Xiuhua High School."

"Can you tell me your name?"

Nagasaki Suyo smiled and said, "Your name is Chen Xinghua, and my name is Nagasaki Suyo."

"Can I call you Xinghua?"

Chen Xinghua swallowed his saliva. How long would it take for the black tea he ordered to arrive? He was almost dying of thirst.

"casual."

"Then can I call myself Su Shi?"

The smile on Nagasaki Suyo's face remained unchanged.

"of course can."

"What were you talking about with Xiao Deng yesterday?"

Chen Xinghua stretched out a palm towards Nagasaki Suyo, signaling a pause.

Because his eyes caught the news about Kita.

"Sorry, I have something to take care of, please wait a moment."

Nagasaki Suyo said in an unusually gentle voice: "It's okay, I will wait for you."

Just like waiting for the other members of "CRYCHIC".

Chen Xinghua opened the chat software and typed in the content while saying to Nagasaki Suyo, "It will be dealt with soon. It won't take up much of your time."

Su Shi looks like a gentle person.

Focus on the things at hand first.

Kita, I have asked Xiangzi to teach you the most basic music theory, but I will try my best to spare time during lunch breaks and weekends to teach you more about guitar.

Just for the sake of helping Xiangzi, please promise me that she will teach you basic music theory after school on weekdays.

Because I will pay her according to the average hourly wage of hiring musicians to teach.

OK, sending it.

"It's taken care of."

Chen Xinghua breathed a sigh of relief, then nodded towards Nagasaki Suyo and said, "Yesterday, we were discussing with Deng about forming a lifelong band."

Nagasaki Suyo bit her lip, and the red blood flowed in her mouth in another way, making her taste buds taste like rust.

Talking about forming a lifelong band...are you talking to this boy and the pink-haired girl?

Why do you want to form a lifelong band with someone else, Xiao Deng, instead of forming a lifelong band with everyone in "CRYCHIC"?

Are you saying that you have abandoned Xiangzi and everyone in "CRYCHIC"?

Am I the only one who wants to revive "CRYCHIC"?

But “CRYCHIC” is obviously everyone’s name, why? Why? Why? Why? Why! Why!

Xiangzi, Mu, Deng, and Lixi are the same. Why don’t you miss “CRYCHIC” at all?

Xiangzi, didn't you say that everyone in the band shared a common destiny? But why was it that in the end, you were the first to abandon everyone?

Mu, as Xiangzi's childhood sweetheart, you should know where Xiangzi went, but why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you let me win Xiangzi back? Why didn't you let me win back "CRYCHIC"?

Deng, why do you want to form a band with others for the rest of your life?

Lixi, you never thought about saving "CRYCHIC". It's enough for you to stay by Deng's side.

Could it be that I was the only one who wanted "CRYCHIC" from the beginning to the end?

What is this!!!

"Su Shi, you don't look well. Did you not sleep well last night?" Chen Xinghua saw Nagasaki Su Shi's face turn from blood red to pale in an instant.

The smile on Nagasaki Suyo's face was gone.

"It's okay, I just thought about my dark past in junior high school, haha...haha, I just wanted to find a hole to crawl into."

This didn't seem like he was just thinking about his dark past. Chen Xinghua didn't think he was some naive person who couldn't read other people's faces.

Nagasaki Suyo's expression was as serious as if the house she had built with great difficulty was demolished by someone else.

So why did she become like this...was it because of what I just said?

"Yesterday, we were talking with Deng about forming a lifelong band."

Is this the sentence?
