People are in animation, but they can connect to reality

When your fame spreads, it also means that my fame spreads. Although I haven't revealed my face or name. But, how could people in the same circle not find out about him as the "composer"?

The more excellent songs MMK and the others produce, the more mysterious the band becomes, and the more attention it will attract. Many people will then secretly inquire about the situation, hoping to find out about the "genius composer."

An unknown band released many excellent songs in a short few months, and the band became very popular. No one could sit still and remain calm.

"Whatever you want to do, even if you lose hundreds of millions every year."

Asagi laughed carelessly. Everyone took his words as a joke. Hundreds of millions? What a concept! They weren't money-eaters. No matter how much they lost, they couldn't possibly lose that much. Ah, bah, bah, bah, they wouldn't lose money.

“We’re not going to lose money.”

"That's it."

"Are you going to support us?"

The girls started talking about it. They accused Asagi of not trusting them, but they felt warm inside.

"Would you like to take this opportunity to get some sleep and have some sweet dreams?"

Faced with such a joke, Asagi naturally laughed along with them. Unlike the silence and quietness of other bands, the atmosphere here was much more relaxed.

"It would be great if I could sleep. I got up very early today and I'm a little sleepy."

"You need to sleep after eating. You are very similar to some animals." Ebizuka Satoshi still had a bit of a sharp tongue.

"And there's a lot to eat." 486 raised his hand high.

The girl looked at the lunch box on the ground. Asagi could eat almost as much as three girls by himself. Asagi wanted to refute this point, saying that it was because they ate too little.

Asagi couldn't understand the appetites of the Tokyo girls. How could they eat so little with such large bodies? Were they powered by electricity?

"You guys ate too little, I just ate a normal amount. Besides, I'm still growing, so it's completely normal to eat more."

"Okay, okay. It's almost time, let's go to the waiting area first." Miura Shiomi clapped her hands.

Everyone stopped fighting and nodded collectively.

Chapter 212 Almost exposed

When Asagi and the others returned to the waiting area, they found Toyokawa Shoko and the others already sitting on the chairs next to them. Asagi sat back down in his original seat.

"Please wait a moment, the second round of the competition will start soon." The staff of the organizer in front kept saying similar words.

Asagi noticed that Wakaba Mutsu's position had changed. In the last game, Wakaba Mutsu and he sat in the same row, but this time Wakaba Mutsu sat next to Toyokawa Shoko.

While looking for Wakaba Mutsu's location, Asagi happened to put on a masked girl with long golden hair. Asagi knew that the mask contained a very popular character, Sankaku Hatsuka.

In some ways, Asagi felt that Sankaku Hatsuka was much prettier than Toyokawa Shoko, especially her long golden hair and somewhat heroic appearance, which really attracted Asagi's attention.

However, Sankaku Hatsuka was wearing a mask, so Asagi couldn't see her face. The only place he could see Sankaku Hatsuka's face was on his phone.

Mikado Hatsuka's eyes met Asagi's, and she blinked, slightly stunned. This wasn't the first time she'd seen Asagi; she'd run into him here earlier. At the time, Mikado Hatsuka had thought Asagi was a potential fan, and she'd even waved to him.

After a brief pause, Sanjiao Chuhua gently waved towards Asagi again. Asagi was also stunned, somewhat baffled. Because he had the impression that Sanjiao Chuhua should not know him at all.

Asagi nodded in response to Sankaku Hatsuka's greeting.

Soon the second round began, and the remaining bands took the stage one by one. When it was MMK's turn, they stood in the same place they had just stood. This time, Rencai's expression was much more confident.

For the second song, MMK and the others chose Misaka Mikoto’s song [Only My Railgun]. Like [Bluebird], [Only My Railgun] has a fast-paced and exciting melody.

Rencai stood straight, her eyes fixed on the judges and the audience. This time, she didn't avoid their gaze. Her hand gently grasped the microphone, appearing relaxed and at ease.

She began to speak slowly, and then the rhythm began to break out like thunder and lightning. Asagi listened to the familiar melody and couldn't help but feel a warmth. It was one of the few familiar things he had left in this strange world.

"Excuse me, can I ask about your relationship with them?" As Asagi was lost in his memories, a strange voice rang out beside him. It was a voice he had never heard before, and he was very confused.

I turned around and found that it was Meowen, Yutenji Wakamu.

Is Yutenji Wakamugi a beautiful girl with long purple hair? "Beautiful girl" isn't quite the right word, is it? She's a university student, so "beautiful girl" would be a more appropriate term.

Yutenji Wakami leaned half-sideways, a half-smile on her face as she looked at him. Asagi struggled to describe the relationship between him and MMK and the others. Calling them teammates was hard for outsiders to believe, and he'd have to explain a lot. Calling them fans would make him seem overly enthusiastic, almost like a stalker.

Seeing that Asagi was hesitant, Yutenji Wakami didn't force him, "If it's not easy to say, you don't have to say it."

"Well, Meow Meng is really considerate."

"Hey? You know me?"

Asagi suddenly realized he'd let something slip. How foolish of him. Was it because hearing "Only My Railgun" earlier had made him lose his guard because he'd been lost in memories of his original world?

Why would such a problem arise? Asagi was a little nervous, his mind racing. Furthermore, he regretted it. He had always done well, so even if others had doubts, they couldn't find any evidence to hold against him. They just thought Asagi was a genius.

"Maybe it's because I'm a fan of Miao Meng." After thinking about it, this fan excuse is the most useful.

"I'm clearly wearing a mask," Miao Meng insisted. Because she was a "bad woman," and a very perceptive one at that. She could tell from the small details of Toyokawa Shoko's outfit during their first meeting that he was in financial trouble.

"How did you recognize me?"

Compared to Meow Meng's calmness, Asagi was sweating profusely. Facing Yutenji Wakami's questioning, Asagi decided to make a decision that went against his original intention.

"Actually, I'm a huge fan of Miao Meng Jiang. Not only do I watch her videos frequently, but I also know her height and measurements like the back of my hand. I've even studied some of her body language habits and subtle movements."

"You are so disgusting." Yutenji Wakamu showed a look of disgust and disdain.

"Probably." Asagi could only admit it. As long as he could cover it up, it would be fine.

"Well, as an idol, considering how hard you've worked, I'll give you a small reward."

"Ah?" Asagi was a little confused.

"Take out your cell phone." Yutenji Wakami said in a half-commanding tone.

"Uh." Asagi didn't know what Yutenji Wakami was planning to do. Was he planning to catch him or find something to hold against him? In short, he was a little confused about Yutenji Wakami's plan.

Yutenji Wakami took Asagi's phone and fiddled with it. Asagi's phone was clearly locked, so Yutenji Wakami couldn't have known that. Asagi was sitting, he couldn't see what Yutenji Wakami was doing.

"Hey, that's it."

Yutenji Wakami returned the phone to Asagi. Asagi was confused and had no idea what had just happened. However, Yutenji Wakami didn't ask him about recognizing her, and Asagi breathed a sigh of relief.

Yutenji Wakami wasn't as easy to fool as the uncle. Partly because the uncle didn't really care about Asagi's talent; he was just surprised and casually complained, not caring whether he could get an answer or not. Yutenji Wakami seemed to grasp this point and kept asking questions frantically.

Of course, Asagi could choose to ignore Miao Meng, but that wasn't a good solution. You can ignore her, but you can't stop Miao Meng from asking questions.

"What did you do?" Asagi took the phone, and it was intact. There was no sign that the lock screen had been unlocked.

"Hmm? Are you a foreigner?" Miao Meng showed a puzzled expression. She moved slightly closer, and Asagi instantly felt the pressure.

"Infrared dating mode, don't you know?"

"Ah! I forgot about it." Asagi suddenly remembered that there was such a scene here. Because this kind of thing rarely appeared in recent years, he almost forgot about this pattern.

"Oh, kids nowadays, is this the generation gap?" Miao Meng said helplessly.

"Woo woo..." sounded threatening. Asagi looked up, only to find MMK and the others had already finished their work and returned to the waiting room. However, they didn't look very happy.

The three little ones' faces showed vigilance and reproach.

Asagi's gaze flickered between Meow Meng and the three little ones. What were they staring at? It looked a bit dangerous.

Chapter 213 Entering the finals

"Stop, stop, stop! Get away from him!"

"Oh my, it seems like I've been mistaken for a bad guy."

"Hello, I am..." Just as she was about to speak, Miao Meng found herself stuck. She hesitated and looked at Toyokawa Shoko and then at Asagi.

She thought for a moment and realized she couldn't say her name, so she changed her approach and said, "I'm the drummer of Ave Mujica. I saw that you guys are really good, so I wanted to get to know you."

Then Miao Meng leaned close to Asagi's ear and whispered, "You didn't tell them my identity, did you?"

Asagi nodded. How could he say such a thing? This had almost nothing to do with MMK and the others, or rather, they didn't even know Meow Meng, except for this time.

"That's good."

Miao Meng smiled, showcasing her skills as a renowned blogger. "Actually, I've only been involved with bands for a short time, so my skills might be a little limited. However, when I saw you perform, I immediately fell in love with you. I've been trying to find a good opportunity, and since you guys are performing, I'm planning on getting some information from your friends."

"So that's how it is." 486 suddenly understood.

"Yes. Can I exchange contact information with you?" Miao Meng made a request.

MMK did not respond to Miao Meng. After a moment of hesitation, only Rencai and 486 responded to Miao Meng's request. Even Rupa, who was always known for his warmth, refused.

Miao Meng's words caused dissatisfaction among Toyokawa Xiangzi, who was standing beside her. Miao Meng's words seemed to imply that they were not as good as MMK. She glared at Miao Meng, but Miao Meng ignored Toyokawa Xiangzi.

"I hate that woman!" After Miao Meng left, Ebizuka Chi whispered to her from behind. Rupa patted Ebizuka Chi's head to comfort her.

"Hmph, you've attracted another strange woman, so greedy?" Ebizuka Satoshi suddenly turned around and glared at Asagi.

"Huh? Greedy? What does that mean? Why are you angry and take it out on me? This has nothing to do with me." Asagi looked aggrieved. What does this have to do with him?

Ebizka Satoshi ignored Asagi's words and turned back without paying any attention to Asagi. Judging from Ebizka Satoshi's expression, he was still angry.

"Hey, don't ignore me! You have such a bad temper!" Asagi became a little irritable.

Off to the side, the smiles on 486, MMK, and Rencai's faces froze instantly. They hadn't expected the cheerful and relaxed atmosphere just moments ago to turn into this. They were a little worried, their expressions becoming cautious.

"Haha, haha, that's it, Chi-chan. Don't be angry, Asagi, I apologize on her behalf." Rupa quickly spoke up for Ebizuka Chi. Seeing Rupa's apologetic expression with his hands clasped together, Asagi temporarily suppressed the urge to ask the truth.

"It has nothing to do with Rupa. But since Rupa said so, I'll pretend to forget what happened just now." Asagi didn't intend to argue with Ebizuka Satoshi to the end. After all, he had lived as a human for two lifetimes. But this statement was so strange. He hadn't lived for two lifetimes.

Moreover, he also knew Ebizuka Satoshi's personality. He was just like that, not considering other people's feelings too much. He would just say whatever he wanted to say directly. He also didn't hide his expression, and was almost a straight shooter.

He was just a little angry just now and almost couldn't hold it back.

Fortunately, his voice was relatively quiet, so it didn't attract the attention of the neighbors. Otherwise, who knows where Meow Meng would be gloating over the misfortune. Asagi's understanding of Meow Meng reached a new level: that guy was a sinister person.

"Why do you do this?" After Miao Meng returned to her seat, Toyokawa Shoko questioned Miao Meng with a stern face.

Miao Meng didn't take it seriously. "What's wrong with this? Does the captain even want to control my social circle? Next time, should I apply to you first before making friends? I can only make friends after you approve it."

As he spoke, Miao Meng laughed.

Obviously, such a thing is impossible. Toyokawa Shoko can't control it to this extent. She has no reason to interfere with Miao Meng's personal life.

"Didn't I tell you? Just leave your life to me. I'll take you to the top." Toyokawa Shoko knew what Miao Meng was thinking. This country girl was obsessed with money. Everything she did was for money. When Toyokawa Shoko recruited Miao Meng to join the team, she relied on the promise of a bright future.

To this day, the thing that Toyokawa Shoko regrets most is recruiting Meow Meng into the team. What was she thinking at the time?

"I can also say nice things," Miao Meng said with a smile, mocking Toyokawa Shoko. "Can you leave your life to me, Captain?"

Toyokawa Shoko seemed to be choked, gritted her teeth, unable to speak. She really wanted to scold Miao Meng, this short-sighted woman. Could she only see three meters away?

However, Shoko Toyokawa couldn't speak because she hadn't done it yet.

"Xiao Xiang."

"Xiangzi."

Wakaba Mutsu and Sankaku Hatsuka looked at Toyokawa Shoko with some concern and called out softly.

"Stop arguing! We're still competing."

In the end, it was Hachiman Kailing who stood up. She used her huge height advantage to oppress Miao Meng. Only in front of Hachiman Kailing did Miao Meng truly feel her own insignificance. So, Miao Meng shut up and sat down obediently.

The minor disturbance on Ave Mujica came to a temporary end.

During this brief period of silence, the remaining bands took the stage one after another. After all the bands finished their performances, the places for the finals would be announced.

The judges stood up, holding the manuscripts in their hands. The manuscripts contained the finalists they had just discussed. With a resounding voice from the microphone, the five teams that advanced were announced onto the field.

“Ave Mujica.”

“MY ALL”.

"Diamond Stardust."

Familiar names reached Asagi's ears, but he wasn't surprised by them. There were two other bands whose names Asagi was unfamiliar with. However, he didn't have the energy to care about them.

"The third round of comparison will begin soon. Teams that advance, please wait patiently where you are. Teams that fail to advance, please remain quiet and orderly." The voice of the chief judge echoed in the playground.

Many bands failed to make the finals, silently shedding tears as they hugged each other, comforting each other and making a stronger pledge.
