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

"Ahaha, how could it be such a coincidence, Senior, the band you are talking about should not be the ending band I thought of."

Chen Xinghua didn't say anything, just walked silently.

"That shouldn't be the case, right?" Kitano's yellow-green pupils quickly shrank into a tiny focus.

Why did she feel that the ending band Chen Xinghua was talking about was the ending band she ran away from?

"Pochi-chan, Chen Xinghua." The iconic triangular yellow ahoge swayed out from the roadside.

It's like the opening of a classic horror game, when you see a paper illustration of a scary character and are worried that she might suddenly appear.

She suddenly appears from the corner you least expect the next moment.

Just like Ijichi Hongxia at this moment.

The frightened player may control the protagonist to fight back, or may control the protagonist to escape... or may be like Kita at this moment, frightened and stand still, motionless.

In fact, strictly speaking, Kita was moving. She was like a tropical resident who had fallen into the Arctic, shaking her body desperately, as if this could bring her some warmth to resist the cold.

"The runaway guitarist?" Hong Xia said with her head tilted in confusion.

"Xiduo, have you encountered any unexpected situation recently? That's why you haven't contacted us."

Kita once again realized how bad he had done.

It was obvious that she joined the band for Senior Liang, but when the time came, she suddenly ran away without any notice, leaving Hong Xia and Senior Liang alone on the stage in embarrassment.

It only takes a little thought to figure out how terrible a performance would be with just a drum and bass band.

But when Senior Hong Xia saw me again, she actually asked me if I didn't contact them because I had an accident, instead of directly scolding me angrily.

What have I done?

When a person encounters bad things, it does not mean that his situation will only be so bad, it may even be worse.

Kita was deeply aware of this because she saw Senior Liang walking out from the corner while drinking a drink.

So she directly apologized by kneeling down in a formal manner.

"I'm very sorry for causing trouble to everyone by my thoughtless actions."

"Please forgive me, I will do anything."

Chen Xinghua helped Xiduo up from the ground.

"Don't apologize yet, the ground is dirty."

"Go in and talk."

.....

A few minutes later, in the recording studio of the STARRY performance hall, a meeting called the Kita Review Meeting was in full swing.

Hongxia knocked the table hard.

"Xiduo, why did you suddenly run away that day?"

"Is it because of some unexpected situation at home?"

Chen Xinghua felt as if he saw the glass on the table move a few centimeters outward as Hong Xia knocked on it.

"Ok?"

Should I say that he is indeed my favorite drummer, he is so powerful.

However, as a drummer, you need not only great strength but also endurance. Otherwise, you will fall to the ground exhausted after playing a song at a concert.

I just don't know how long Hongxia lasts.

If you don't have enough endurance, you need to exercise more.

Kita put his hands together and kept bowing.

"Actually, it's because I mistook a multi-string bass for a guitar, so I bought a guitar instead of a multi-string bass."

"Hmm?" The triangular hair on Hong Xia's head shook. "No wonder you always find excuses to avoid practicing with us."

“If you play a bass like a guitar, you won’t get the same sound as a guitar.”

Chen Xinghua complained, "So our captain Hong Xia didn't organize a group practice before the band's first live performance?"

Hong Xia slammed the table, shocking Chen Xinghua so much that he subconsciously grabbed the glass in front of him.

"Oh, that. Kita, that guitar bag... that bass bag on your back, is that the multi-string bass you bought?"

"Can I go back now?"

"You got away with it." Liang complained coldly.

Xiduo glanced at Chen Xinghua.

"It's a black guitar. A kind person exchanged his guitar for my bass."

She had originally come here with her guitar bag to ask Chen Xinghua some questions about guitar, but now seemed not to be the time to ask about guitar.

"Xiduo, you can work on your guitar skills after joining the band." Hong Xia patted the table that was under a lot of pressure, "Because we are not the kind of band that puts pressure on us to get the members together today and make a commercial debut tomorrow."

Hong Xia still remembers that the band currently has a drummer, a bassist, a keyboardist, a lead guitarist, and only needs a rhythm guitarist and a lead singer.

If Kita rejoins, we'll have a rhythm guitarist and a lead singer all at once.

"So Kita..." Hongxia stretched out her hand towards Kita, her meaning was self-evident.

"Performing on the same stage with my seniors..." Kita felt suffocated just thinking about it. She felt that her singing and guitar skills were not up to the level of performing in Tokyo Dome.

"I can't do that with my ability!" Kita didn't grab the hand that Hongxia extended.

"If you don't know how, you can practice." Chen Xinghua said. His only requirement for Goto Ichiri to join the band is that he can't be too bad.

This badness refers to bad character, not bad technically.

If the band members’ abilities are not up to par, they can practice until they reach the level of an average band.

At worst, after I become famous in the music industry, I can just give the band more resources.

But if the band members have bad character, then it’s really not going to work.

59. Not every band is as easy and happy as the end of the band

"If you feel that your abilities are insufficient, then redouble your efforts in practice." Chen Xinghua looked at Xiduo calmly.

"If you keep staying where you are and saying you're not capable enough, you won't be able to change anything."

"If you can't sing, then practice. If you can't play guitar, then practice."

“Practice to a level that satisfies both myself and everyone else.”

“Escape won’t solve the problem, but working hard can.”

Tears of emotion welled up in Kita's eyes.

"senior."

Chen Xinghua nodded.

"Kita."

Liang covered his mouth and chuckled, "Are you guys performing a melodrama at 8 o'clock in the evening?"

"Liang, don't spoil the mood at this time." Hongxia frowned, then turned to look at Kita.

"We will all be waiting for you... because the band is a whole, and no one will abandon the whole of another."

“Everyone holds hands and moves forward together. This is what a band is.”

Goto Ichiri felt the atmosphere of the scene and wondered if he should say something similar to fit the mood.

(Alas, Pochi-chan, I was all by myself back then... all by myself! I even invited Kita to join the band, but why do you need help from others when it comes to you?)

(Alas, each generation is worse than the previous one.)

Is this me from another time and space? How despicable! Goto Ichiri thought to himself.

This scumbag will definitely cheat fans’ money to buy cigarettes and alcohol.

(This is called fan economy... Do you understand fan economy? They voluntarily buy me cigarettes and alcohol.)

It really was a lie.

Goto Ichiri raised her hand with a gloomy expression. She felt that her future might be bleak.

"I can teach Kita-san how to play guitar. Although I don't think I'm particularly good at teaching others, I am very good at playing the guitar."

"I can definitely teach Kita-san well."

Although Goto Ichiri's words seemed a bit inconsistent, her emotions still reached Kita's heart.

"And you have a band-aid on your fingertip. That must be proof of your hard work, right?"

"Everyone." Kita wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with emotion, "Thank you, I will work hard and will not let you down."

"Kitao." Liang suddenly put his arm around Kitao's shoulder.

Kita swallowed nervously. Sure enough, Senior Liang still couldn't forgive her...

"Lend me some money... I'm so poor lately that I have to eat grass." Liang stretched out his hand to Kita and shook it, as if wanting to ask for something.

"That's great... Senior Liang, how much money do you want to borrow?" Kita happily took out his wallet, as if he wanted to withdraw "friend's money" from it.

"Two thousand..." Liang said disdainfully.

"Senior Liang, please don't do this." Chen Xinghua's voice and Hong Xia's hand knife reached Liang's head together, stopping her from saying anything more.

"Cool." Hong Xia said loudly.

"This is a band, not a gang like last year."

With Liang's cry of pain, the band's relaxing and happy day officially began.

"Ok?"

Feeling the vibration in his pocket, Chen Xinghua took out his mobile phone and found that a person with a panda avatar had sent him a private message.

Who is this...Chen Xinghua doesn't remember adding the person with the panda avatar.

She also said she wanted me to be the backup keyboardist for her band.

Which band is theirs?

Wait...Oh. Chen Xinghua suddenly realized.

He seemed to have said before that he could be the backup keyboardist in Deng's band.

In other words, the person with the panda avatar is the one in the band group chat where the light was added before.

Then reply to the message.

"I'm free this weekend afternoon."

Chen Xinghua raised his head. Aren’t there more important things to pay attention to now than focusing on Deng forming a band that doesn’t even have a name?

"Is it the same guitar as Pochi-chan's?" Hongxia looked at the guitar Kita had just taken out curiously. "...This skull sticker is so retro, very similar to the stickers that rock musicians used to wear."

"Squeak." Chen Xinghua felt as if his heart was pierced by a sharp sword.

What's so retro about this skull sticker?

Well... he admitted that he just bought the skull sticker online without even looking at its pattern carefully.

"This is not the same model of guitar as mine." Goto Ichiri knew it at a glance, because the guitar that Kita has now is the same guitar that Chen Xinghua had before.

Recalling what Kita had said before, that he bought a guitar but ended up buying a multi-string bass, Goto Ichiri easily deduced the truth of the matter.

In order to give Kita a guitar to practice, his childhood sweetheart exchanged instruments with Kita.

(I was wondering why he brought a multi-string bass home the other day. I thought he was into collecting musical instruments like Xie Liang... Damn, this jerk still owes me a ton of money.)

(Pochi-chan, remember, you must never borrow from me in the future)

"Mine is a Gibson Les Paul Custom Rrissue 1968, and Kita's is a Gibson Les Paul Custom Reissue 1968."

Goto Ichiri's heart sank.

Suddenly I felt like I was being hunted by a minotaur.

The plot of swapping musical instruments...
