Girl band, because of the shining heart

"...Say something."

"what?"

The girl tilted her head, and was startled when she heard Jiuzhong Qianxiao speak, then took half a step back.

"I say, what are you doing standing so far away?"

"Eh? Huh? I just, kind of, grunt."

Hearing Jiuzhong Qianxiao's words, the girl suddenly became more nervous. She put one hand around the other's shoulder, her face flushed as she wanted to say something, but she accidentally bit her tongue. Then she looked at Jiuzhong Qianxiao with tears in her eyes.

......

Jiuchong Qianxiao was numb, but he didn't know what to say. It was the first time he saw someone so nervous. He didn't say anything or do anything, right?

I was just drinking coffee and playing with my phone in the practice room...hiss.

Thinking of this, Jiuzhong Qianxiao suddenly realized that this was not a practice room in a livehouse, but a lounge in the idol practice room of an agency. This cup of coffee was brought to him respectfully by a staff member before.

In other words, in the girl's eyes, she should be some big shot, and in fact she is a big shot. But looking at her nervous personality and the way she accidentally bites her tongue when speaking, she probably can't afford to offend someone like her.

Could it be some bottom idol?

No, generally speaking, idols who make it to their debut won’t get nervous that easily, and they won’t bite their tongues.

Could it be that he is not even as good as the idols at the bottom?

Jiuzhong Qianxiao pondered for a moment and then asked, "Are you an idol?"

When the pink-haired girl heard this, she nodded first, then shook her head.

"Idol Producer?"

"Ah."

"How long have you been an idol trainee?"

"Three years."

Oh, this should be the idol trainee that Bai Lu Qiansheng told him about. However, after three years of being an idol trainee, he still hasn't debuted, but he still persists. How can I say that? He is a very perseverant person.

Just as he continued to say something, someone else walked in.

The girl with silver-gray hair and double braids looked at the pink-haired girl standing beside her, and said in a daze: "Why is Cai standing so far away?"

The girl called Aya-san is the idol trainee Maruyama Aya who bit her tongue before and has been training for three years. She looked at the girl with silver-gray hair who had a puzzled look on her face, and signaled with her eyes to Kunou Chisho who was sitting on a seat nearby. After hearing someone coming in, she turned around.

"Eh? Excuse me, is this Jiuzhong Qianxiao?"

"Hmm? Ah, it's me."

"It's really you. You're really handsome. I've seen your movies and TV shows before. The samurai you played were really handsome, powerful, and very Bushido. I've always liked them. Oh, excuse me, my name is Wakamiya Eve."

"is it?"

Looking at Wakamiya Eve who was almost close to her face, Kunou Chisho could only pat her shoulder, indicating that she was a little too close.

After the other party took a few steps back, looking at the light in his eyes, Kunou Chisho asked helplessly: "Wakamiya-san, do you like samurai very much?"

"Well, I like Bushido very much, and I also like samurai. You played a samurai before, which fits my understanding of Bushido very well."

Wakamiya Eve's voice was full of longing and love. She really liked Bushido. She liked the movie about samurai that Chisato Kunoe had previously starred in with Chisato Shirasagi very much, especially the young samurai played by Chisato Kunoe.

"I really like a line in the movie, which is about protecting other people's smiles. This line makes me feel very samurai."

She said the most classic line in her memory, which was the line spoken during the last part of the movie when the young samurai hero played by Chiaki Kunou was fighting a fatal battle with the villain boss.

"And the OP and ED you sang and produced for that part of the movie are both very nice."

"Really? Thank you for the compliment."

Jiuzhong Qianxiao didn't know what to say. He actually wanted to say that one should not associate an actor's work with the actor himself, but looking at the longing look in Wakamiya Eve's eyes, he didn't say the words after all.

"Please sit down first. By the way, who is Cai?"

"Huh? Ah, my name is Maruyama Aya."

"Well, Maruyama-san, come and sit here too."

Originally, Maruyama Aya was watching the interaction between Kunou Chisato and Wakamiya Eve, with her head down, still thinking about something. When she heard Kunou Chisato calling her, she obediently said her name and sat next to Wakamiya Eve.

"...Can I ask why Maruyama-san looks a little scared of me?"

It was very strange. Chisato Kunou had always been a very friendly person, at least that's what everyone he came into contact with said. So when he saw that Aya Maruyama was a little scared when she saw him, he was a little curious why she had such emotions.

The previous speculation was directly overturned after Wakamiya Eve came in. Under the same circumstances, if Maruyama Aya was a little afraid of herself, then why did Wakamiya Eve dare to come up and attack directly?

This made him even more curious.

"Because, I thought someone like you wouldn't be here or anything like that?"

"What kind of reason is that..."

The corners of his mouth twitched. This was not a reason at all. It was more like a lie made up because he was afraid of something else.

"I just came here to help because I accepted someone's request. You don't need to worry about anything. I think you should understand, right?"

"Because you've acted in TV series and movies before, and the band you formed afterwards is also very good, so I don't know how to face you."

It's the inferiority complex that makes me feel inferior to even the bottom idols.

PS: I feel that according to Maruyama Aya's personality, she should not be suppressed. But on second thought, if she can be crushed by Hina, then it is no problem for Kunou Chisato to be crushed by her. After all, Kunou Chisato is much bigger than Hina. Hina is an unconscious pressure, but Kunou Chisato is a pressure wherever she is.

PS: Regarding the movie and TV series that Eve mentioned, just think of it as a modified Rurouni Kenshin.

PS: I actually wanted to move on to the HHW story after the PP part, but damn, KKR completed HHW in two days, so I can only postpone it a little bit. (KKR is really too strong)

PS: RAS and Dietuan were both launched in the second year, so it will probably take some time.

Chapter 31 Twin Branch Trigger

After a moment's silence, looking at Maruyama Aya who was lowering her head and looking a little restrained opposite her, and then looking at Wakamiya Eve who was looking at her with a smile beside her, Kunou Chisho rubbed her brows.

To be honest, he was a little surprised that these two people would appear in the same band at the same time.

After chatting for a while, Chisato Kunou learned that before joining an idol band, Wakamiya Eve worked as a model first, so her state of mind is much better than Maruyama Aya who is still an idol trainee.

After being an idol trainee for three years, the only things that can be praised are my hard work and perseverance. As for other aspects, I cannot be called an idol who can stand on my own.

At least it shouldn't be like now, where he can't even lift his head in front of me.

After a while, the remaining three people came into the lounge.

"Eh? It's rare to see Cai lowering her head like this, not daring to speak."

A familiar voice attracted Jiuzhong Qianxiao's attention. When he turned his head, he saw a girl with blue hair and green eyes. However, unlike his impression, the girl had short hair, while the girl in his previous memory had long hair.

Like, very similar.

So they are twins?

"? Ah, you're the one I saw on TV before? Um, Jiuzhong Qianxiao!"

Dark green eyes, thick black hair, and a handsome face. After just a brief recollection, the girl found the other person's name from her memory. Her eyes widened slightly. She didn't expect why Jiuchong Qianxiao would appear here.

"Hina, this is Kunou Chisho. I asked her to come over to help."

After hearing the girl's words, Bai Lu Qiansheng, who had not yet walked into the lounge behind her, patted her on the shoulder and motioned her to go in first. After taking a look, he found that it was indeed Jiu Zhong Qian Xiao herself, and then he started to explain to the girl called Hina.

"Is that so? I didn't expect that you, Qiansheng, could actually call him over to help?"

"Oh, by the way, my name is Hikawa Hina, please give me your guidance."

After talking to Shirahige Chisei, Hikawa Hina turned around and greeted Kunou Chisho with a smile.

"Ah."

Nodding, Jiuchong Qianxiao turned his gaze to the last person who came in.

"Yamato Mami?"

"Eh? Do you know me?"

After the memories overlapped slightly, Jiuchong Qianxiao also recognized the other party's identity. After seeing the other party stunned for a moment, he explained with a smile.

"During a previous performance, you helped fix the sound system, so I think you still have some impression of it."

During a previous performance, there was a problem with the drummer's audio connection. There was constant noise and no one knew the reason. Maya Yamato happened to be at that concert at the time. After communicating with the staff, she went backstage to help resolve the audio problem.

So Jiuchong Qianxiao still has some impression of the other party.

This is probably the impression of a very capable tech geek.

"Performance! At that time I just wanted to give it a try, but I didn't expect it would turn out to be the problem I was thinking about."

"No, I should thank you. When the problem occurred, the staff responsible for the connection was away. I was very grateful to you for helping me solve the problem."

Seeing Yamato Maya waving her hands, looking a little embarrassed, Kunou Chisho smiled and thanked her again.

After a brief chat, Bailu Qiansheng also talked about the reason why he asked Jiuchong Qianxiao to come.

"I see. Since we were lip-syncing to deceive the audience, we wanted to make it more realistic."

Jiuchong Qianxiao sighed, looked at Bailu Qiansheng in silence for a long while, and then looked at the other people.

"Let's not discuss the bass for now. How much do you know about musical instruments?"

Because a band cannot be without bass, but when playing music, most people don't care about the band's bass. Besides, since they are lip-syncing, they can naturally ignore the bass.

"I can play the guitar, but since I'm not allowed to play it, I just have to perform perfectly."

Hikawa Hina's idea is very simple. She can play the guitar, but since the agency said she doesn't have to play it, then she won't play it. As long as she acts as if she is playing the guitar, she will find it very interesting.

“I studied jazz drums for five years.”

Maya Yamato was originally a technician and support drummer at the agency, but because the agency could not find any other drummers, she officially joined the idol band after Shirasagi Chisei confirmed that her appearance was good enough to become an idol after taking off her glasses.

Besides, jazz drums are difficult to fake, and since she really wants to play the drums, we can naturally ignore her and not let her participate in the discussion.

"I had never been exposed to the instrument before. I only started practicing the instrument in the past week without interruption."

Eve Wakamiya probably had never touched a keyboard before. Before this, Chisho Kunou had seen the musical instruments shown to him by the staff of the agency. Eve Wakamiya's keyboard was not a standard keyboard, but a keyboard similar to a guitar.

Jiuchong Qianxiao had never touched that kind of keyboard before. After trying it just now, he quickly understood the difference between that kind of keyboard and a standard keyboard.

"I see, then the lead singer is Maruyama Aya-san? Your singing ability..."

To be honest, Kunou Chisato frowned slightly when she saw Maruyama Aya, who was still a little restrained after all her teammates arrived. If she was in this state backstage, what would she be like once she was on stage?

You have to know that once you stand on the stage, the pressure you face will be more than just what you face now.

"Why does Xiao Cai look so listless? I remember that Xiao Cai was always very energetic before."

Hikawa Hina turned her head with some confusion and looked at Maruyama Aya.

In her impression, Maruyama Aya should be the kind of person who is full of energy no matter what happens, but now, nothing is interesting anymore.

"Then let's play it and give it a try."

Kunou Chishao withdrew her gaze, hoping that Maruyama Aya and others would be able to perform well. If they went on stage and faced more people, what would happen afterwards was something she dared not even think about.

after an hour......

Putting the notebook on the table, Jiuzhong Qianxiao left the office.

how to say?

If the performance is based on failure, then it will be an absolute success.

Maruyama Aya was so nervous that she couldn't even lip-sync many parts of the lyrics.

And her four teammates.

There is no need to discuss whether Hina Hikawa and Maya Yamato already know how to play the instrument or not. They can just play it the real way without connecting it to a speaker.

Shirahime Chisei is an actor himself, so it is easy for him to perform by playing the bass seriously. However, Wakamiya Eve was a little beyond his expectations, as she had some talent and could at least perform decently.

After writing down the advice and instructions for each person in a notebook and placing it on the table in the lounge, Jiuzhong Qianxiao left.

He actually never thought that one day he would teach others to lip-sync.

If it weren't for Bai Lu Qiansheng's request, he wouldn't have come at all.
