People are in animation, but they can connect to reality

"Ah?" MMK hesitated. It would be bad to refuse a customer. She took out the CD from her backpack and handed it to Asagi. However, when Asagi handed MMK the money, MMK only took a small portion.

"I'll give you 100 this time."

After that, MMK packed up his backpack without looking back and turned to leave. Looking at MMK's back, Asagi knew he couldn't wait any longer, so he shouted,

"Please wait a moment, MMK-san."

MMK turned and looked at Asagi.

"Let's sign the contract, MMK. I'll give you the music and you'll be responsible for singing." Asagi shouted.

MMK waved his hand and did not answer.

"I'll be waiting for you here tomorrow night. I'll come to you with a new song then." Asagi shouted at MMK's receding figure. MMK gradually disappeared in the crowd without responding.

Chapter 7 Stolen?

After returning to the rental house, Asagi opened his mobile phone and searched for music scores. For this purpose, he specially bought a notebook of five-line music scores so that he could copy them more easily.

Everything else was fine, but Asagi was stumped by the choice of songs. With so many songs to choose from, which one should she choose? After searching for a long time, Asagi finally chose two good cherry blossom songs: Ayumi Hamasaki's "My All" and Naruto's "Blue Bird."

After meticulously copying the lines on the musical notation, Asagi checked the time. It was still early, too late to sleep. In his excitement, he tore off a few pages and copied "Streets Where the Wind Lives" and "Yearning Across Time and Space."

After finishing everything, Asagi Inu smiled, very satisfied, turned off the lights and fell asleep peacefully.

The customer service department was very busy. Toyokawa Shoko had just finished work and returned home exhausted. She opened the door and found the room was pitch black. She fumbled around expertly to turn on the light.

The incandescent light instantly illuminated the room. Xiangzi accidentally kicked a can on the ground, and the can fell with an unpleasant noise. On the floor directly in front of Xiangzi, a drunken middle-aged man lay there.

The man was disheveled and reeked of alcohol. He turned a blind eye to Xiangzi.

"I am back."

Toyokawa Shoko shouted softly into the air.

The next day, Xiangzi woke up to start a new day. After leaving breakfast for the man on the ground, she packed her schoolbag and walked to the entrance. She opened the door, and the bright warmth outside and the cold inside made her body tremble. She bit her lip and glanced at the man on the ground. A sparkling crystal flowed in the corner of her eyes.

She lowered her head, as usual,

"Safe travels."

Xiangzi spoke softly to the air.

Xiangzi boarded the tram. Today, he seemed to be leaving earlier than usual, so there was a shortage of seats. Xiangzi walked along the aisle, trying to find a place to catch up on some sleep.

Soon, she saw an empty seat and walked over to sit down. The boy next to the empty seat saw Xiangzi coming and consciously moved to the side to leave more space for Xiangzi.

"Thank you."

Xiangzi didn't care who the other person was, she just wanted to take a nap.

Asagi looked at Toyokawa Shoko beside him. Shoko had her eyes closed and looked very tired. He didn't expect that he and Shoko were on the same train.

Perhaps due to excessive fatigue, Xiangzi's body fell down and leaned on Asagi's shoulder. He looked at Xiangzi, who had a peaceful face while sleeping, his eyes slightly closed, his eyelashes long, and his breathing even. Asagi did not disturb Xiangzi.

Arriving at the station, Shoko woke up punctually, as if her biological clock had been set. Before Asagi could speak to Shoko, Toyokawa Shoko hurriedly grabbed her schoolbag from the seat and trotted away.

I remember that when she met Xiangzi on the first day, she also looked so flustered.

Asagi also stood up and left the platform. Unlike Xiangzi, he was leisurely and walked slowly. When he arrived at the classroom, most of the classmates were there.

Asagi pulled out the sheet music from last night and looked at the music on it, grinning foolishly and drawing strange looks from the people around him. Asagi didn't care; this was the music he had prepared for Momoka that night, and it was also the beginning of his business venture.

Video music bloggers are very popular now, and many traditional musicians have begun to switch to this profession. Although the upper limit of music bloggers is low, they can accumulate fans.

First, build MMK's fame and amass a large fan base. Then, find a few teammates for MMK and form a band together. Once they've made enough money, open a management company, expand operations, establish various subsidiaries, and launch a great ACG career. Bring your dreams to the world.

“Hehehehe…”

Asagi smiled foolishly. Kotobuki, who was standing beside him, looked at Asagi and showed a trace of worry at his silly state.

"Oh no. It's gone."

Asagi slammed his bag, his music was gone. He searched through the bag, even emptying everything out, but still couldn't find it.

He was stunned and stood there blankly, feeling like crying.

Qin Chui Qiyu walked over, squatted down to help him pick up the books on the ground, and then handed them to him and asked,

"Did you forget to bring something? If I have it, I can lend it to you."

Asagi took the book from Kotobuki Nana and sat down in his seat. Before he could thank Kotobuki for her kindness, the bell for class rang.

By the end of the afternoon, Asagi's mind was completely occupied with the two songs he had lost. These two songs weren't just any old songs; they were the very important "The Street Where the Wind Lives" and "Yearning Across Time and Space." Of these, "Yearning Across Time and Space" was even more crucial, as otherwise, the bond between Ergouzi and Ali would be broken.

"Did you lose it on the tram?"

Asagi thought back to what happened on the train. He dozed off and bumped into Toyokawa Shoko. There was a seat between them, with the space between them separated by their backpacks.

Accidentally put it in someone else's schoolbag?

"Maybe he forgot about home." Because he stayed up late last night, Asagi has been in a drowsy state today. He can't even tell whether he is really at school or dreaming.

He just felt confused.

Forget it, let me go home and take a look first.

Meanwhile, Toyokawa Shoko packed her schoolbag and went to the music room of the performance club. Toyokawa Shoko was in Campus B, so normally, she and Asagi would rarely run into each other.

The school is huge, and each campus is also quite large. Furthermore, the boundaries between them are very clear, with each campus having its own student union and clubs. While the school doesn't prohibit joining clubs across campuses, who would bother traveling to another campus to participate?

Unless there is a purpose, it will be troublesome.

Toyokawa Shoko came to the music room. During the time after school, she wanted to play the piano quietly for a while, because there was no place else for her except here.

Before her part-time job came, Toyokawa Shoko had nowhere to go. She sat down in front of the piano, opened her schoolbag and took out the piano sheet music. Inadvertently, a few pages of paper fell out of her schoolbag.

Toyokawa Shoko frowned. She didn't remember tearing up books. Instinctively, she bent down to pick up the pieces of paper and took a quick look. Unbeknownst to her, the paper in her hands was actually music sheet.

Toyokawa Shoko was instantly furious. Her music score had been torn up and deliberately stuffed into her schoolbag. Was this [80]? She had never expected to encounter such a thing. If she knew who had done this, she would definitely not let the other party down.

She opened her music score and wanted to put the papers back in the correct place, but she found that the format of the papers was different from her music score. They were not from the same notebook.

Toyokawa Shoko was stunned for a moment, confused as to what was happening. That was until she carefully examined the papers. Unfamiliar names appeared before her eyes: "The Street Where the Wind Lives" and "Yearning Across Time and Space."

Chapter 8 Did you compose the song?

Shoko Toyokawa thought she was familiar with most of the piano music in the world, but she had never heard of these two names.

"Maybe someone made this song secretly," she thought.

"But what do you want to do by giving it to me? Are you seeking my advice? We can talk about this face to face."

Although Toyokawa Shoko appears to be cold on the surface, she is actually not cold at all in her heart. She is still willing to help with this kind of favor.

"Are you not confident?"

She frowned, unable to think of how to deal with these two songs.

"Well, never mind. Since someone stuffed it into my pocket, I'll help out and find out who did it."

Xiangzi's fingertips gently touched the piano keys. The familiar feeling was like an old friend. She started practicing the piano when she was very young. At that time, she was the eldest daughter of a certain family, not the wage earner like she is now.

As Xiangzi's fingertips danced nimbly, the keys on the piano cooperated with her obediently, and the melody of "The Street Where the Wind Lives" began to sound slowly. The long and graceful melody, with a hint of sadness, was played softly at Xiangzi's fingertips.

Just like the song title, it passes through the day, through the night, through the stars. It dances through the quiet streets, whispering to the wind, telling you about your light brown hair and deep black pupils.

The faint lament softly hums a deep and sad emotion.

Xiangzi's fingers unexpectedly stopped, and a warm breath gently dripped between Xiangzi's hands. She wiped her eyes, tears welling up like a spring, unable to stop.

The sadness of the song is somewhat similar to Xiangzi's current life. From falling from heaven to the abyss, Xiangzi did not give up. She tried desperately to change and wanted to contribute her own strength to her family.

But no matter how hard she tried, no matter how strong she was, the goal she was fighting for disappeared. What was the point of her efforts?

The father he once was was gone, gone, and all that was left was a drunk. The house that was once filled with laughter was now cold and dark.

She has no extravagant hopes, nor does she miss the luxury of the past. All she desires is a warm home.

"That's outrageous! Why did you tell me such a song?"

Xiangzi's voice trembled, her head buried in the piano, holding back her tears, not letting them burst out. She wanted to cry loudly.

The melody on the score was only halfway through when Xiangzi lost the courage to continue playing.

As Xiangzi lay bent over the piano keys, she heard footsteps coming from the corridor outside. The footsteps gradually approached, and then the door of the music room opened, and a senior student walked in. The student was carrying some kind of wind instrument on his back, and it could be determined that he was a member of the wind band.

The wind ensemble is different from the music club. The wind ensemble plays more group instruments, most of which are classical.

"Hey, it's early."

The senior students saw Xiangzi was obviously stunned and waved to greet him.

"Are you a first-year student? Are you planning to join the club?"

The senior student looked at Xiangzi kindly. Since school had just started, many clubs were recruiting students, and many freshmen were constantly visiting various clubs, looking for ones they wanted to join.

The senior student looked at Xiangzi and thought she was a freshman who came to visit.

Xiangzi shook his head.

"I just came to rest for a while."

"Take a break?" The senior student looked at Xiangzi, then saw the piano in front of Xiangzi and her posture, and instantly understood.

"It's the piano, right?" the senior student smiled and walked up behind Xiangzi in a gentle voice. "Although this piano is in the wind band's activity room, it's the school's property and everyone can play it."

As long as it doesn't affect the club activities of the wind orchestra, it's fine.

Then the senior student came up to Xiangzi, took a look at the music on the piano, and was stunned for a moment, because it was a piece of music she had never seen before.

"Did you compose this music yourself?"

Generally, people who can compose their own music will have their own piano at home.

Then the senior sister hummed a few lines according to the melody on the music score. As soon as she opened her mouth, the gentle smile on her face froze instantly.

She didn't dislike the melody; on the contrary, it was so beautiful that it made her feel suffocated. It was like a senior who had played for many years and, through their own efforts, had finally gained a position in the club and received the club's praise.

Suddenly, a newcomer arrives, barely even having played the instrument for long, and already, with her sheer talent, she's already surpassing the veteran. The feeling of suffocation, of all my efforts being wasted, is overwhelming.

The senior student took a moment to collect herself, forced a smile, and gave a comment.

“It’s beautiful.”

Xiangzi stood up, grabbed the music and put it back into her schoolbag. Then she stood up straight, bowed formally to the senior students in the wind band, and hurriedly left the music room.

The senior sister was left alone looking at Xiangzi's back, feeling lost.

Meanwhile, Asagi sat on the train, still thinking about the lost song. He kept praying that the song wasn't lost, but simply forgotten and left in the rental house.

Back at the rental house, Asagi searched everywhere where papers could be hidden, but still couldn't find the two pieces of music.

Asagi didn't have much time left, but fortunately he still had "My All" and "Blue Bird" in his hands. Originally, "My All" and "Blue Bird" were songs prepared for MMK, and "The Street Where the Wind Lives" and "Yearning Across Time and Space" were just songs he liked to copy out.

Since it's lost, just think of it as giving back to the world.

After calming down, Asagi excitedly took [my all] and [Bluebird] to the place where MMK was performing.

Because they were constantly in a hurry and hadn't had time to eat, Asagi went back to the restaurant where Rupa worked. I have to say, the noodles there were really good. And Rupa was always smiling while serving us, and that sunny face gave people a comfortable feeling.

Besides, Rupa and the others are also fighting alone and are constantly looking for band members. If possible, Asagi hopes that Rupa and MMK can form a band together.

"welcome."

As soon as Asagi walked into the restaurant, Rupa greeted him with a smile. Asagi found an empty seat and sat down. Rupa stood beside him with a pen and paper for ordering, and said with a smile,

"Order, please."

Every time I see Rupa’s smile, I feel like all my worries can be put aside for a while.

"Same as yesterday."

Asagi also answered with a smile. After that, Asagi looked down at the time. At this time, MMK still hadn't arrived.

"Are you guys in a band?"

Before Rupa left, Asagi looked up and asked. Rupa was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded, slowly retreating to the kitchen.
