Onmyoji who mingles in the world of anime

Lan Qiansha stared at Tsuchimikado Tou, a hint of curiosity rising in her heart. Unconsciously, she took out her phone and secretly snapped a picture of Tsuchimikado Tou's profile, intending to ask Tang Keke about it later.

"It's about time to start." On stage, Tang Keke and Shibuya Kanon stood back to back, eyes closed, and whispered to each other.

"Mmm." Shibuya Kanon nodded gently, but she was extremely nervous at the moment. She opened her eyes, wanting to sing, but she couldn't open her mouth at all.

She wanted to reach out and grab Tang Keke, but she didn't have the courage.

Just as her breathing became heavy and she felt a slight sense of suffocation, she suddenly heard Tang Keke's mutterings.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay..."

Tang Keke trembled all over as she kept encouraging herself, but her voice grew louder and louder, which not only failed to ease her nervousness but also made her even more afraid to sing.

"Cocoa-chan?" Listening to Tang Cocoa's constant self-encouragement, Shibuya Kaon turned her head blankly and uttered a worried sound.

At this point, the audience below the stage also noticed that something was wrong with them. The performance, which had started, was not responding for a long time, and the control panel, not receiving any signals from them, naturally dared not play the background music.

However, Tang Keke and her group were not the first idol group to be nervous. In addition, they were still students and it was their first time performing on stage, so no one was impatient. Instead, they were very tolerant and encouraged them again.

Meanwhile, in an alley, a blonde girl wearing sunglasses was secretly watching them. When she realized they hadn't started performing, she said impatiently, "What are they doing?"

As she spoke, she put on sunglasses and walked out of the alley. However, she had only taken two or three steps when she suddenly tripped over a rope, and then all the stage lights went out, which surprised everyone.

Chapter 1322 The Match Ends

"I've messed up, I've really messed up." Heian Mingjin looked at the loosened power cord on the ground in a panic, immediately crouching down, frantically trying to fix it. "I've messed up, I've messed up..."

On the stage, Tang Keke and Shibuya Kanon were also at a loss, closing their eyes in a panic.

The audience below the stage were also buzzing with discussion.

"What happened?"

"Why did the power suddenly go out?"

"Has something happened?"

"What should be done about the competition? This is very unfair to the four groups of participants who come after us."

"If it can't be resolved, it will probably be delayed."

"What a pity."

"..."

Below the stage, Lan Qiansha looked at Tang Keke and the other person with a worried expression. Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration, quickly opened her backpack, took out the cheering sticks inside, and began to distribute them to the people around her.

"Please." Lan Qiansha said as she distributed the items.

However, she didn't have many light sticks in her bag, and they were used up after only distributing them to about ten people.

Those who had extra light sticks understood her meaning and began to share them with the people around them.

Even so, it's just a drop in the ocean; expecting to provide lighting for Tang Keke and her friends with just these light sticks is nothing short of wishful thinking.

Seeing this, Tsuchimikado Fuyu looked at her and said, "Do you need any help?"

“Of course!” Although Arashi Chisatsu was very puzzled about what kind of help Tsuchimikado Fuyu could provide, she didn’t have time to ask and quickly nodded.

“Come with me.” Tsuchimikado Fuyu nodded and then said to her.

After saying that, he led Raphiel and the others quickly toward the outside of the stage.

Arashi Chisara looked at Tsuchimikado Fuyu with suspicion, but ultimately decided to trust him and quickly followed him.

Soon, Tsuchimikado and the others arrived at the edge of the park and saw a group of vendors sitting together counting their money. They asked, "Do you still have any light sticks?"

"Of course there are more, but young man, it's a bit too late to buy this now. The performance is almost over, it's not worth it," one of the older women kindly advised.

"It's okay, just sell me all your light sticks and then help me distribute them." Tsuchimikado Fuyu casually pulled out a wad of cash and a card and said:

"However, time is of the essence. You should distribute the goods first. Tell me how much it costs, and if it's not enough, you can pay by card."

"Okay." Seeing Tsuchimikado Tou's generous manner, the group of middle-aged women knew his determination and had no doubt about his financial resources. They all stood up and started distributing their light sticks to the audience.

Raphiel and the others naturally went to help, leaving only Tsuchimikado Fuyu and one of the older women to calculate the prices.

"Thank you." Arashi Chisara never expected Tsuchimikado Fuyu's method to be like this, since buying light sticks from the vendors at the scene was much more expensive than buying them in the mall.

“No need. Coco and I are friends, and I don’t want her debut performance to end in failure.” Tsuchimikado Fuyu explained with a smile, “Besides, it’s all thanks to you for coming up with this idea, otherwise I wouldn’t know how to help them.”

"Anyway, thank you for the money..."

"Don't worry about the money. I don't lack it," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a smile. "You probably have more important things to do than worry about this."

Upon hearing this, Arashi Chisara nodded, then bowed slightly to Tsuchimikado Fuyu, before quickly returning to the audience to begin organizing.

Soon, with the concerted efforts of the audience, everyone raised their cheering sticks, instantly illuminating the entire competition venue.

Multicolored lights illuminated the stage, and Tang Keke, whose eyes were tightly closed, seemed to sense the dazzling light and slightly opened her eyes.

When she saw the rainbow-like halo below the stage, she excitedly turned around and grabbed Shibuya Kanon's shoulder, startling her.

"Xiangyin, look!"

Shibuya Kanon opened her eyes, turned her head in confusion, and immediately froze on the spot. Then, like Tang Keke, she exclaimed in surprise.

"So beautiful!" Tang Keke exclaimed.

"come on."

"come on!"

Offstage, the audience cheered them on, which gradually restored their courage to dance, despite their initial nervousness.

Then, Shibuya Kaon slowly grasped Tang Keke's left hand, making her instantly understand her feelings.

"I can sing!" Shibuya Kaon said earnestly under Tang Keke's expectant gaze, "Because I am not alone."

Meanwhile, Ping An Mingjin, who was busy and overwhelmed, saw the staff gradually arriving and hurriedly picked up two wires, as if she had no other choice, and stuck them together.

Let's just accept this as the case!

Surprisingly, she was right.

Just as Shibuya Kanon and Tang Keke began to sing, the entire stage was illuminated again.

The staff in the control room reacted quickly and pressed the button to ensure the background music played on time.

A shooting star streaking across the night sky.

They chase after becoming stars.

Shine!

(Little Star)

……

On the other side, Tsuchimikado Fuyu had also calculated the price with the older women and readily paid.

They didn't take advantage of Touya Mikado; in fact, they gave him a 20% discount because he helped clear out the inventory.

(Even with a 20% discount, they still made a killing.)

When Tsuchimikado Fuyu returned to the stage, he also saw the remaining two members of Mirai Star Group.

One of them was An Pingming Jin, who was squatting not far away, staring blankly at Tang Keke and the other person performing on the stage, and the student council president, Hazuki Ren, who was hiding not far away and peeking.

By the way, do all these student council presidents have this problem?

Ayase Eli is like that, and so is Hazuki Koi.

They were all initially firmly opposed to becoming academy idols, but after being recruited, they all changed their minds and became the most enthusiastic dancers in the group.

……

The Chiba Idol Festival ended quickly, and an awards ceremony was held immediately after the competition.

There were a total of eight awards at this ceremony, both large and small.

In addition to the champion, runner-up and third place winners, there are five special awards for newcomers.

"Congratulations to the idol team from Yuukoka Girls' High School, Kaka won the Newcomer Special Award. We hope you will continue to work hard on your idol journey."

"Congratulations to the School Idol Club from Chiba Municipal Academy of Foreign Languages ​​for winning the Newcomer Special Award. We hope you will continue to work hard on your idol journey."

"Congratulations……"

Soon, the special awards for newcomers were presented, followed by the most anticipated top three winners.

"Congratulations to the idol group Gokudo Girls for winning third place. Let's congratulate them."

The three brothers accepted the trophy with smiles on their faces, but after stepping off the stage, their expressions suddenly turned as if they had lost their parents, and they were extremely anxious.

Oh no, oh no! I really didn't get first place. I guess I'll have to go through intensive training!

But nobody cares about their feelings right now; everyone is still looking forward to the champion and runner-up.

"Congratulations to School Idol Sunny Passion for winning second place! Let's congratulate them!"

(I always felt there was something off about the translation of this team's name in the anime.)

"Congratulations to the idol group Heian-kyo for winning the championship with their beautiful dance and wonderful singing. Let's congratulate them."

Chapter 1323 Flower Viewing Season

On Sunday, Chiba welcomed its annual cherry blossom season.

This year, Tsuchimikado and his group naturally had planned a flower viewing event, and Winette and the others had been making plans for it for a week.

They had two potential locations in total. One was the cherry blossom forest on Mount Hakusan, which they had visited last year. Since everyone hadn't visited Usagi and Kikuri in a while, this was a good opportunity to go and see them.

The second one is naturally Hakugyokurou in Gensokyo.

After some discussion, everyone decided to go to Baishan.

However, unlike last time when only a few people from the club came, this time the whole family came, and there were a lot of people.

But when everyone arrived at the cherry blossom grove, they found that they couldn't find a suitable place.

Although they set off very early in the morning, when they arrived at the cherry blossom grove, there were already quite a few tourists there to admire the flowers. After looking around, they found that either the location was not good and they could not see the flowers, or the space was too small and they had to sit separately.

So everyone discussed it and decided to go up the mountain and have a picnic at the shrine with Kikuri and Usagi.

"So, this is your reason for coming to wreak havoc on my shrine?" On the top of Mount Hakusan, Kikuri looked at the group who were chatting and laughing as they prepared the barbecue grill, her face dark with exasperation.

Originally, Tsuchimikado Fuyu and the others only brought some bento boxes, but after deciding to have a picnic at the shrine, he simply opened the courtyard gate and had the shikigami help bring over the barbecue grill and ingredients.
