When I’m in a music show, I just want to make music seriously!

She used all her strength to respond to Sakagami Taku's question with a low and slightly hoarse voice: "Well, I guess I like it."

Sakagami Taku: "I saw you brought a guitar today. You also ordered heavy metal music at noon. The CDs on the table seem to be from popular heavy metal bands."

After hearing what Sakagami Taku said, Goto Ichiri's expression changed for a moment.

Someone actually noticed!

Goto Ichiri thought that no one paid attention to what she did. After all, no one had talked to her about it for so long.

But Sakagami Taku's next words almost made her want to find a hole to crawl into.

"But I think it's better not to order those death metal dishes while eating..."

Bang bang bang!

"I'm so sorry!" Goto Ichiri apologized by banging his head on the table frantically.

Seeing this, Sakagami Taku was frightened and quickly held her head with his hands: "Not really, not really."

He got straight to the point: "Well, a friend of mine has formed a band, but they're currently short of a guitarist, so I'd like to ask if you're interested in joining."

Band? Need a guitarist?

Goto Ichiri imagined himself joining a band and then shining brightly.

However, when he saw Sakagami Taku's handsome face and the natural way he spoke, Goto Ichiri felt as if his eyes were about to be blinded by the light.

No, no, no, joining a band made up of just your friends would definitely attract attention wherever you go.

Just thinking about being surrounded by a bunch of people made Goto Ichiri so nervous that he wanted to find a deserted corner to hide.

Looking at Goto Ichiri's expression, Sakagami Taku probably understood what she was thinking.

"Sorry, it was a bit sudden. I was just asking out of curiosity. If you have any ideas in the future, you can always come to me."

Taku Sakagami didn't say anything more, but just got up and left, leaving Ichiri Goto alone in the classroom.

Only at this moment did she suddenly realize that she had brought her guitar and placed CDs with her just to attract attention, perhaps to use this opportunity to join a band. Everything Sakagami had done just now was exactly in line with her idea.

Hashidou Madai! Does that mean I've just ruined my future career? I don't want that kind of thing!!!

9. Su Shi, how can you be so good at pinching?

Although he wanted to try to help Hongxia find a suitable teammate, Goto Ichiri's personality was indeed a big problem. Sakagami Taku felt that since he had decided to help, he must handle everything well and could not find an autistic child for Hongxia.

Three days later, news of Toyokawa Shoko finally came to Sakagami Taku's cell phone.

"Are you free tomorrow weekend, Taku? I've already found all the members for the band, and I want everyone to get to know each other. I've also already completed the previous contracts, so let's start this weekend."

"Okay, boss."

Sakagami Taku was brief and to the point. After seeing that Toyokawa Shoko had sent him a specific position, in order to leave a good impression on his future "colleague", Sakagami Taku even specially found some relatively new-looking clothes to use as formal wear.

The next day, Taku Sakagami got up early, printed out the lyrics and music he had prepared, put them in his backpack, and then went out.

However, just after getting off one stop at the subway station, Taku Sakagami happened to meet Shoko Toyokawa, who was accompanied by a girl with long light green hair. Her appearance was as delicate as a doll.

On the other side of Toyokawa Shoko, there was another beautiful girl with long brown hair. She was taller than Toyokawa Shoko and looked a bit like a Yamato Nadeshiko.

"Ah, it's Taku!" Noticing Sakagami Taku, Toyokawa Shoko smiled and waved to him, "Taku, here, here!"

Sakagami Takuya waved in response.

"Good morning, Mr. Xiangzi."

Hearing Sakagami Taku's words, the two girls beside Toyokawa Shoko looked puzzled: "Boss?"

"I told you not to call me that, Taku-kun," Toyokawa Shoko quickly explained to the two girls beside her, "This is the support musician I've been telling you about."

She pointed at Sakagami Taku, giving him plenty of respect and face. "Taku Sakagami is very accomplished in various musical instruments. I went to the Ring a few times to try out his performances. I saw him perform a few times, each time using a different instrument. The most important thing is that his performance was simply perfect!"

Upon hearing this, the brown-haired girl showed a surprised expression on her face: "It takes a long time just to practice a musical instrument. That's amazing."

Halfway through her speech, she realized something important: "Oh, excuse me, my name is Nagasaki Suyo, you can just call me Suyo. I've heard Xiangzi mention you to me many times before, and I'm kind of looking forward to meeting Sakagami-san. This is also my first time interacting with a boy."

As students of Tsukinomori Academy, they had never come into contact with many boys, so the appearance of Taku Sakagami still made them a little curious.

"It's our first meeting, just call me Taku." Sakagami Taku greeted the other person politely, and his attention was quickly drawn to the other person's words: "First time meeting a boy?"

Nagasaki Suyo explained, "Well, we're all students at Tsukinomori Girls' Academy. We've never been around boys before, and this is our first time forming a band with boys."

Only then did Sakagami Taku remember that Tsuki no Mori seemed to be an aristocratic girls' school.

Wow, these are all rich women!

His eyes immediately lit up.

I don’t know if it’s because Nagasaki Motoyo’s voice is just like that naturally or if she did it on purpose, but Sakagami Taku feels that it’s a bit too strangled.

Sakagami Taku immediately replied: "Well, I hope we can have a good cooperation."

His sights were fixed on another delicate and cute girl with long light green hair. The more wealthy women he met, the wider his prospects would be.

The latter also noticed his gaze, and just nodded politely, and said in a low voice: "Ruo Ye Mu."

Seeing the good atmosphere among the group, Toyokawa Shoko smiled and continued, "This is Wakaba Mu, my childhood sweetheart. We grew up together. She's always loved guitar and is very reliable."

"Well, hello." Hearing this, Sakagami Takuya roughly understood the other party's position. He asked curiously: "Can you tell me what position Suyo-san holds?"

As the founder of the band, Toyokawa Shoko also said: "Ms. Suyo is a bassist. She plays the double bass in the wind band. I saw her wonderful performance at the Tsuki no Mori Music Festival a few days ago, so I invited her."

Taku Sakagami: As expected of you, Mr. Xiangzi, the young lady really has a plan and lets the double bass player be the bassist.

Although Sakagami Taku really wanted to complain, as an employee, he had a very high level of awareness and was determined not to allow himself to be optimized!

It’s just that the positions for guitarist and bassist are gone, so he can even play rhythm guitar.

At this time, Nagasaki Suyo also asked curiously: "Can Taku-san play the double bass?"

She had heard Toyokawa Shoko talk about Taku Sakagami several times before, saying that he could play all kinds of musical instruments.

She was curious whether he could also play the instruments used in the band.

After all, there are some differences between those and regular musical instruments.

Sakagami Taku nodded: "Yeah, I know a little bit."

The double bass is mostly used in large ensemble performances and rarely in solo performances. Although Taku Sakagami knows how to play it, the high price of the cello and the difficulty of playing it alone have made him give up these instruments.

Nagasaki Suyo had only asked casually, but she hadn't expected Sakagami Taku to actually be able to play. She praised him generously, "That's amazing! Practicing these instruments takes time and effort. Taku must have put a lot of effort into music."

She was even a little curious about how Sakagami Taku's double bass skills were.

However, considering that this was the first time the two parties met, Nagasaki Suyo did not ask these doubts in her heart.

"...Sort of."

Do you believe me when I say I have been playing music for two lifetimes?

After a few pleasantries, Sakagami Takuya had a general understanding of the current responsibilities of the four people.

By chance, they met, and Toyokawa Shoko simply said, "There are two more people next, one is the lead singer and the other is the drummer. If Taku doesn't mind, you can join us."

"Well, I'd love to." Sakagami Taku certainly agreed. He was also very curious about what kind of team members Toyokawa Shoko had found.

He particularly remembered the girl with light green hair. There was no other reason. How could someone who could be a childhood sweetheart of the daughter of a wealthy tycoon be poor?

As the saying goes, you can't hang yourself on a tree.

The worst that can happen is that you become a slave to three families!

If you work for Boss Xiangzi, you may have the opportunity in the future to come into contact with wealthy and powerful tycoons and have more options for your career.

Afterwards, Sakagami Taku soon met the remaining two teammates.

One of them was called Takamatsu Teru, who looked like a shy and introverted girl. She was obviously surprised when she saw that Sakagami Taku was a boy. However, soon, because everyone's attention was on the music, the fact that Sakagami Taku was a boy was no longer so important. After all, music does not transcend national boundaries and gender.

As for the other black-haired girl, both of them seemed a little surprised when they met.

"Taku!?"

"Lixi!?"

As someone who moved around various working areas, Taku Sakagami naturally recognized the girl Shiina Tatsuki who worked at Ring at a glance.

Taku Sakagami had worked with him for a while before, but they were just ordinary colleagues.

Compared to Sakagami Taku's surprise, Shiina Riki was obviously more surprised.

This working god of war actually found a band and was willing to be a member of it?

This is so magical that it seems like a fairy tale.

You know, Taku Sakagami's reputation as the working god has long been spread in every place he has worked.

And now, what is it that attracts him to join the band?

10. As expected of you, Boss Xiangzi

The group finally arrived at a coffee shop. After placing their orders and briefly introducing themselves, it was finally Taku Sakagami's turn.

Taku Sakagami introduced himself confidently.

Shiina Riki finally couldn't resist the confusion in his heart and asked, "Why are you willing to join the band?"

To this day, she is still very surprised about this incident.

Anyone who has come into contact with Taku Sakagami's musical instruments knows that he has a high level of attainment, and even reached a professional level at one point.

The only pity is that he rejected all invitations from any band.

Shiina Riki remembered that this guy had said something strange like 'Can you afford my life?', but because his tone sounded like a joke, no one took it seriously and just thought it was just a random excuse for him to refuse.

Facing Shiina Riki's question, Sakagami Taku said seriously: "Love and dreams."

It is obvious that Boss Xiangzi formed a band because of his dream and love for music.

As for him?

Glancing at the wealthy women present, Sakagami Taku knew that talking about money with his boss at work would only hurt feelings.

However, after hearing what Sakagami Taku said and seeing his serious expression, Shiina Riki paused and believed it.

A hint of apology appeared on her face, and then she said, "I'm sorry, I thought you only cared about money..."

Sakagami Taku: “…”

How could such cruel words come out of that delicate and pretty face of yours.

And now I am a man who earns 2,000 yen an hour, which is completely different from you, an ordinary working girl in Ring!

After everyone finished introducing themselves, Sakagami Takuya had a general understanding.

The guitarist, bassist, lead singer, drummer and keyboardist are all present.

So what's the remaining vacancy - a rhythm guitarist or pianist or something like that?

However, the probability of piano use is not high.

There are only two performance halls nearby, and it is very troublesome to carry the piano on and off the stage, so it is not suitable for ordinary bands.

He felt that he would most likely play the rhythm guitar.

Now, it was the turn of the real core of the band, Shoko Toyokawa, to speak.

After everyone got to know each other, Toyokawa Shoko stood up and looked at them all, saying with calmness and confidence, "Everyone, thank you for inviting me here today. I've been looking forward to meeting you all. From now on, we're a band, a community with a shared destiny, playing music together."

After the words were spoken, everyone's focus changed completely.

Nagasaki Suyo is somewhat interested in the term "community of shared destiny", while Wakaba Mutsu is obviously more concerned about some practical things.

She asked, "What music will be played?"

"Good question," Toyokawa Shoko said, "Deng, Riki, and Taku, do you know the band Morfonica?"
