Tokyo: Idol Girls have absolutely no bad intentions!

Even when harassed by a Shibuya gyaru in a light jacket and sports bra, Ito did not abandon his professional ethics.

There was no insult or driving them away, only the need to endure the other party's verbal provocations.

In any case, this level of impact is not even as great as Asada's "Good morning".

"Hahaha~" Shibuya gya laughed without any attempt to hide it, leaning forward and pressing herself against Ito's bulky mascot costume, gently poking the bear's belly with her finger.

"Hey~ Bear, can I have a hug? Just one! You look so cute, it must feel so nice to hug you~"

Ito stood there, his heart completely unmoved, and he even felt a little like sighing.

I was pondering whether to continue ignoring it or to make a "baa" gesture with my bear paw, even though I probably couldn't actually do it.

It was so hot being so close. He took a step back to avoid the Shibuya girl's actions.

A white rabbit doll suddenly "popped" out from the side and hurriedly squeezed between him and the hot girl.

The rabbit Mori completely ignored the hot girl next to him and faced the brown bear Ito directly, gesturing anxiously with its two furry rabbit paws.

First, he pointed to the distance, then exaggeratedly made gestures of looking at his watch and stomping his feet, and finally put his hands together in a pleading manner.

Moriue seemed very anxious... but Ito still wanted to continue observing, which was unusual for Moriue.

So the brown bear Ito stood still, showing no intention of leaving.

After waiting for a while, Mori, the rabbit, couldn't stand this slow-witted jerk any longer. Mori, dressed in his mascot costume, frowned.

He then grabbed Ito's wrist, waved at the tactless woman, and quickly left.

The two dolls, a rabbit and a bear, gradually moved away from Shibuya Gyaru. They got closer and closer, with the rabbit still poking the bear's head with its paws, while the brown bear could only helplessly endure it with its head down.

A cowardly husband and a domineering wife were playing out before her.

Instead of getting angry upon seeing this, he smiled knowingly.

She held up the half-empty glass of clear sparkling water she had gotten from the bear, and gently shook it, the ice cubes making a crisp clinking sound.

Turning around, she walked towards booth number 40, her anticipation for that place growing even stronger.

Brown Bear Ito was bullied all the way to the backstage of booth number 40, where a makeshift changing room had been set up.

The tray containing drinks was placed to the side, Ito had taken off his brown bear headgear, and Mori was pulling on his ear, scolding him as if he were his girlfriend.

No matter what Mori-kami said, with his hair soaked with sweat and sticking to his cheeks, Ito's mind was always on Asada, who was performing on the stage.

"The muddy water of the rotten street is cold (the dirty water of the rotten city is cold)"

The song "Bustling, Our City" has reached its chorus, and Asada is in even better shape than he expected.

But this is not enough.

The number of listeners was increasing, but very slowly. After only a brief observation, Ito realized that the listeners from the surrounding booths were being drawn over.

But Asada's booth was in a remote location, so how good could the booths around her be?

Therefore, even if the performance is quite good, the effect is still only average.

The reason for choosing "The Bustling City" as the first song is primarily because it has been popular for some time now, and it can also serve as a great warm-up.

Although it had met Ito's expectations and he should have been satisfied, Ito saw things differently.

Do not!

It should be said that he felt it. He felt the dissatisfaction in Asada's expression when he was singing "Touch with your own hands, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, with these hands" while singing "この手で真かにtouch れたんだねえほらほら".

She is not satisfied, not satisfied with the current audience, not satisfied with the current stage!

"Yujin, are you even listening to me?!" Mori was equally dissatisfied with Ito's attitude.

"I'm listening," Ito replied, enduring the increased pressure on his ears, but he was still thinking about how to increase his influence.

Their group does have a lot of fans, and they're definitely a top contender at this open-air music festival, but it's no use.

The short promotional period is one reason, and the small number of local fans is another. A large portion of those who listen to their music in Tokyo are also fans of other bands.

To get them to abandon their preferred allies and come here, we need a bigger stimulus, a thoroughly crushing defeat!

"Fujikawa!" Ito called out to Fujikawa Kaze, who was trying to make himself as inconspicuous as possible.

"what's up?"

"Here you go." Ito tossed the brown bear headgear to the other person, then unzipped Mori's bunny suit.

"Yu, Hisuhito?"

“We have more important things to do, let’s leave this to them.” Ito also took off his brown bear uniform, then grabbed Mori’s hand and ran towards the changing room.

.......

"変わらないはずはないよ手ばして"

The guitar accompaniment stopped, but the charm and power of Asada's voice were fully revealed.

The song was very short. After "The Bustling City" was finished, as arranged by Asada and Ito, the next song was "The Empty Box," but...

She wasn't satisfied!

Almost without stopping, and without giving the audience any chance to react, Asada immediately began to pluck the strings.

"What is correct! What is stupid!"

The unique rhythm of "So Annoying" begins, and the flamboyant and distinctive vocals emerge, pushing the atmosphere back to a climax!

"ちっちゃにからA student (I have been a top student since I was a child)"

"気づいたら大人になっていた (When I regain my senses, I have become an adult)"

"ナイフの様な thinking circuit (full of blade-like thinking)"

Only Asada Sakura's voice is allowed on stage!

In the backstage dressing room, Ito had just taken off his sweat-soaked clothes when he heard that familiar, powerful melody and singing coming from the stage outside.

His movements suddenly stopped.

"気づいたら-sama になっていた——"

It's "So Annoying"!

"This is too reckless!" Ito scolded in a low voice, his brows furrowed tightly.

Although I had a feeling that Asada would not follow the plan, I did not expect it to happen so quickly.

I felt both helpless and deeply worried about this troublesome idol.

According to the song list he arranged for Asada, although it was impossible to keep the atmosphere at a climax all the time, it was enough to allow her to successfully complete the music festival performance while ensuring her vocal condition.

But this is only the second song!

She immediately jumped to "So Annoying," a song that is extremely taxing on the voice!

This song requires extremely strong explosive power and sustained high-pitched output. With Asada's current skills and physical reserves, singing such a high-intensity song continuously is simply overdrawing her voice!

Even if she is exceptionally talented and has a great physique, just like a Pokémon, she will definitely run into problems in the second half if she acts recklessly!

Thinking of this, Ito changed his clothes much faster, grabbing the punk-style outfit with studs and chains and putting it on, while anxiously shouting towards the door:

"Moriue! How much longer until Iketani and the others arrive?!"

Mori, who was outside the door, had obviously heard the singing on stage, but she only had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

"It will take at least sixty minutes; they need time to retrieve their instruments."

Sixty minutes...

Ito's heart sank.

He knew this was a necessary time-consuming process, and there was nothing he could do about it.

Having Rin Iketani and the others come to help out at the last minute, so as to share the pressure of the performance and push the show to a new climax, was a backup plan he had just come up with.

But an hour... Can Asada hold out for an hour on his own?

Asada's singing and guitar skills were not top-notch at this music festival; in fact, they were among the worst.

What truly sets her apart is her highly distinctive and penetrating voice, the immense impact of the emotions she pours into her singing, and the novelty of the songs Ito wrote for her.

But can these alone really sustain her through an hour of high-intensity singing?

Especially considering how willful and recklessly she burns herself out!

This is a further destruction of Asada's condition, a fundamental exploitation of all of his body's potential!

Ito quickly tied his boot laces and pushed open the locker room door.

Mori stood at the doorway, his face reflecting the scattered light from the exhibition stand.

His gaze instantly fell on the stage.

On stage, Sakura Asada is completely immersed in the music.

Sweat soaked her hair and clung to her cheeks, but she didn't care.

Her fingers danced wildly across the strings, the pick sweeping across the strings and producing a turbulent, distorted sound.

She screamed and shouted into the microphone, every note seemingly squeezed out from the deepest part of her chest, carrying a rebellious spirit that wanted to break through everything and defeat all!

The audience seemed to be swept up in an emotional storm, gradually transforming from initial surprise into a deep and enthusiastic fervor, waving their arms and dancing to the rhythm.

Ito stood in the shadows backstage, watching the figure on stage who seemed to be shining but also rapidly consuming himself, and felt as if his heart was being tightly gripped by something.

The plan was disrupted, and the risks increased dramatically.......

But now, it seems there's no other choice but to believe her.

“Alright…” Ito took a deep breath, his eyes fixed on that dazzling figure, staring intently at the stage. “Let me see just how far your sudden ambition can burn!”

"No problem!" (No! Everything is fine, I don't have a problem!)"

Chapter 232 "Open-air Music Festival Part Two (Supplement)"

"はぁ?うっせぇうっせぇうっせぇわ——!"

(Huh? So long-winded! Annoying! So noisy!)

It's a declaration, an accusation, a naked display of an unruly personality and a rebellious attitude to everyone!
