Girls' Wishing Tree

Li Xi took a deep breath and nodded vigorously. "I understand. I will come to participate in the recording. But I can't play with you for the time being. I want to invite a bassist. I will lift the block on you later. I will do my best to become the best drummer. When the time comes, please be sure to listen to my music again."

Before Takagi Sakura could do anything else, Li Xi left, taking the manuscript of "Big Events" with her.

Zhenxi was waiting for Lixi at the door. When she saw her come out, she immediately went up to her and said, "Lixi, how are you?"

"Thank you, Maki-sama, let's go back." Li Xi clenched his fists: "I understand what's going on. I will become the best drummer in Tokyo from now on."

"Huh? It's all well and good to want to be a great drummer, but can you tell me what happened?"

"This is a secret between Sakura and me."

Ying believes in the power of music, and she also believes in the power of music. Only the most soul-stirring music can fulfill Ying's wish, heal Ying, who already has two personalities, and leave her gentle and passionate side.

However, she would not say these words to Maki.

Chapter 62 Shrines, Festivals and Monsters: 22. Sakura’s second personality?

Takagi Sakura didn't chase after him because she knew Li Xi had already made a choice.

Although she didn't ask Li Xi directly, she knew that Li Xi would probably like option "D", which means "The girl will become a drummer in a band, and together with Hachiman Kailing, she will become a well-known band rhythm section. Not only has she been active in the same band for decades, she has also worked with Kailing on many occasions as a temporary worker in performances and album recordings, and has a very good reputation in the Tokyo music circle."

Sakura hardly understood what was happening, and Riki guided her through a certain choice. This was the first time the girl, whose options were provided by the system, took the initiative to guide her.

What Li Xi was thinking about was definitely self-consistent, but Gao Muying couldn't figure out what she was thinking in a short time. So even when the system prompted that the task was completed, she didn't feel any excitement, but instead felt a sense of powerlessness.

She had no idea how the system worked.

When will the options be provided, to whom will they be provided, and how will these options affect the lives of the girls.

She wanted to know, but she didn't know.

Even... she couldn't figure out what the system was trying to do.

She only had an immature guess, but it would take some time to verify it.

As expected, Li Xi unblocked her and sent her a message: [I want to recommend a bassist named Hachiman Kailing to participate in the recording. When you need us, contact me and I will call her.]

Hachiman Kairei... this name matched the options, but Takagi Sakura only felt a chill on her back.

A distraught Takagi Sakura sat at the counter of the grocery store. She still had 1670 Shining Points left, and she didn't want to use them to draw skills. The next stage seemed too far away.

At this time, Li Xi was communicating with Hachiman Kailing.

Shiina Tatsuki: [I'm going to continue practicing drums. Hailing, please join me for the recording session in a few days. Attached: Sheet music for "One Flower in the World."]

Hachiman Kairei: [Solved?]

Shiina Tatsuki: I have a friend who is very talented in music and a very kind person. I want to follow in her footsteps and get into a position where I can help her.

Hachiman Kairei: [I understand.]

Two days later.

Sakura Takagi invited Hina Hikawa, Momoka Kawahara, Tatsuki Shiina and Kairei Yawata to the shrine to prepare for the recording of the third episode of the guitar interview program.

Lixi and Hailing came very early. Although Lixi no longer ran away when he saw her, she also clearly felt that the relationship between her and Lixi could no longer return to the state before. Now, Lixi would put on a very serious attitude whenever he saw Ying.

Li Xi, who was sitting in front of the drum set, asked Ying, "Ying, can you practice with us for the guitar part?"

Although Ying didn't know why Li Xi suddenly made this request, she also wanted to listen to Hai Ling's performance.

The score was divided into rhythm guitar and lead guitar, and Sakura played the lead guitar part to match the rhythm group of the two.

When the song ended, Sakura and Riki were both surprised.

Ying was amazed at Lixi's playing and even more amazed at Hailing's bass. In a short period of time, Lixi had gotten rid of his emotionless drumming and had developed his own style when playing with Hailing.

And Hailing's bass playing was beyond her years. Ying felt that it was a bit better than her own intermediate bass playing, and the two of them had a very good understanding of each other.

Li Xi confirmed his inner thoughts.

Now the gentle Sakura’s instrument playing skills are indeed not as good as her second personality.

Compared to the guitarist who amazed everyone at the Sakura Festival, Sakura's basic skills are still there, but he no longer has that kind of spirituality.

Li Xi did not point out Ying's problem on the spot - she had already decided in her heart that she would use the best performance to help Ying solve the problem of dual personality.

She can't do that now, but as long as she keeps honing her skills, she'll be able to help Sakura one day.

Neither side discussed things too deeply, as Riki and Hailing practiced together a few more times on their own, while Momoka and Hina also arrived at the shrine.

"Today I'll only be doing the interview, so I'll ask you guys to form a makeshift band. Momoka, you'll handle the vocals and rhythm guitar. Hinata, I'll leave the lead guitar to you. These two, Shiina Tatsuki and Yawata Kairei, will be today's rhythm section."

The interview process went smoothly.

Hina and Momoka are both guitarists who have been in idol bands. One of them is very satisfied with PasPale, while the other is dissatisfied with the development of DiamondDust.

When they get together to talk about music, it creates a great feeling.

Li Xi, who was sitting aside and not appearing on camera, was paying attention to Ying's condition the whole time.

As expected, it was Sakura who was gentle and willing to communicate music and share emotions with everyone.

She talked to Momoka about her determination to drop out of school to make music, and talked to Hinayana about the process of joining PasPale and developing a sense of belonging to the band, and occasionally asked them to play a short piece in front of the camera.

"I won't be making a guest appearance today. Finally, the two guests who were interviewed, Ms. Tatsuki Shiina, and Ms. Kairei Hachiman will perform "One Flower of the World" for everyone!" After saying this, Sakura Takagi gestured for Tatsuki and Kairei to go to the rhythm section, and she adjusted the phone she was using for filming to include all four of them in the shot.

In this song, Momoka's interpretation and Ying's interpretation are two different directions. Ying's singing is more about encouragement and salvation, while Momoka's version expresses a kind of "rebellion".

Yes, rebellious.

The version she sang seemed to be saying that everyone should have their own persistence, and no matter how the outside world evaluates it, what you persist in will always be valuable.

Li Xi had no way to judge which version was better, but he gained a deeper understanding of musical expression.

The same song, two different people, expressed different meanings.

Music is not just about expressing notes accurately according to the score, but also about adding your own emotions to the expression.

It was just an accurate performance, like a puppet that looked similar to a human but had no human soul.

A good musician will give the "puppet" of the musical score a human soul. And the same "puppet" will present different "images" with different souls.

Takagi Sakura recorded three times as usual and was very satisfied with the results.

At the end, she handed out a few tickets to the Harvest Festival.

PasPale was a guest of the performance, so naturally she didn't need to give out tickets, but she gave Momoka two tickets, inviting her and Nina to watch the performance, and gave Riki four tickets, hoping that she could invite Deng, Maki and Hailing to the scene.

They all agreed readily, and Takagi Sakura felt a little relieved.

It would take a while to figure out what was going on with the system, so now she still had to make the Harvest Festival a success.

Chapter 63 Shrines, Festivals and Monsters: 23. Momoka Kaname’s Voice

Sakura Takagi made a lot of preparations for the Harvest Festival program, but the incident with Tatsuki Shiina happened in the middle, so it was delayed for two days.

But we still have to hurry up with the performance.

Agreeing on the order of performances and rehearsing require a lot of energy.

Sakura Takagi decided that Sumimi would open the show, followed by performances by DiamondDust and PoppinParty. During the intermission, she and Kaname Rakuna would sing "PreciousHeart", and Goto Ichiri would play "", and she would perform Kagura dance with the JKs from the Hanasakigawa Miko Club. The second half was left to the two bands HelloHappyWorld and PasPale.

The rehearsal went very well, and the entire live performance lasted an hour and a half. Sakura also made an agreement with Momoka Kawaharaki and Saya Yamabuki that if the audience called for an encore, Momoka would come out and sing "One Flower of the World" again, and Saya Yamabuki would temporarily serve as the drummer while she would play the bass.

Soon, the day of the performance arrived.

Due to the success of the Sakura Festival, LiveHouseDub, which can accommodate a thousand people, was packed.

Jing Qinrencai and Taoxiang sat together at the side of the second row.

Taoxiang invited her to watch the live performance, and she was very happy because it was the live performance recommended by her idol.

"Sumimi's arrangement and singing are both good, and she has the potential to become popular." Taoxiang judged the first band to perform.

Rencai curled her lips - she didn't like this kind of sweet music, she always felt that something very important was missing.

However, when watching the performance with Momoka, she would not refute, but she just did not wave the glow stick with Momoka.

After Sumimi finished her performance, Takagi Sakura walked onto the stage and said, "Now, let's welcome the up-and-coming idol band DiamondDust! They've changed their lead singer, and made a bold shift in their band's style!"

Renai's eyes widened instantly and she shook Momoka's arm beside her: "Momoka, DiamondDust is going to perform like this without you?"

"We've broken up peacefully. It's their freedom to find a new lead singer. How can they continue their activities if they don't?" Taoxiang's tone revealed a sense of relief.

"But...that's Momoka's band! Didn't Momoka say they'd continue with the music?"

"...Keep your voice down." Momoka made a "silence" gesture: "Continue making music in Tokyo. I didn't say I was going back to DiamondDust."

"The current DiamondDust is terrible." Renai lowered her head, clenched her fists, and spat out these words.

However, the atmosphere in the LiveHouseDub hall was the opposite of what Jinna had described. After Sumimi's performance, the atmosphere in the studio had already been heated up, and when DiamondDust came to perform, the four girls who jumped on the stage played a strong rhythmic music, further inspiring the audience's enthusiasm.

Their new lead singer even pointed the microphone at the audience and asked them to sing along with them. At this time, the camera also turned to the lead singer of DiamondDust.

Rencai collapsed on the chair, her eyes wide open, her mouth like a fish out of water trying to blow bubbles.

The lead singer wore stage makeup and dyed her hair, but she would never forget that face.

"Hina..." Nina squeezed out the name from her throat with difficulty.

Why did she become the new lead singer of DiamondDust?

When her classmate was bullied, Hina did not stand up with her, but instead became an "accomplice".

Nina's thoughts jumped from the Tokyo LiveHouse to the school far away in her hometown.

At that time, Nina and Hina were classmates and good friends.

However, when a classmate was bullied, Nina offered to stand up with Hina, but was rejected by Hina.

As a result, Nina insisted on being herself and became the target of bullying along with her classmates, while Hina stood by and watched, and even joined the ranks of the bullies.

She was the only one who was not qualified to join DiamondDust, nor was she qualified to replace Taoxiang.

Momoka noticed Nina's condition.

"Nina, what's wrong with you?" Momoka grabbed Nina's hand: "Are you feeling unwell?"

"DiamondDust, this shouldn't be the case!" Rencai suddenly stood up and ran out of the LiveHouse.

Taoxiang had no choice but to stand up and run out with her.

The members of DiamondDust didn't notice Momoka in the audience at first, but after Momoka stood up and ran after Nina, they noticed that the former lead singer was in the audience.

But on the stage they could only continue their performance. They had three songs scheduled, and they were only singing the second one.

Renai ran out of the LiveHouse, propped up her hands on her knees at the door, and breathed in the street air deeply.

There seemed to be a heavy atmosphere in the air, making her head feel a little dizzy.

"Hey, are you okay?" Momoka patted Nina's shoulder. "Even if I'm not the lead singer of DiamondDust anymore, there's no need to get to this point, right?"

"I don't recognize the current DiamondDust!" Renai suddenly stood up, and the back of her head almost hit Momoka's chin.

Taoxiang leaned back in surprise and heard Renai's hoarse shout.

At this time, the last song of DiamondDust today was played in LiveHouse.

Empty Box (Empty Box).

Under the neon lights of the LiveHouse sign, Nina's face turned from white to green, from green to blue, and then from blue to red, and then she shouted loudly: "I can sing too! I sing Momoka's songs better than Hina!"

Before Momoka could stop her, Nina started singing.

"Bai, long, common sense..."

Her voice was almost the cry of a wounded beast.

After singing a few lines, Renai began to attract the attention of passersby. She glanced at Momoka and bowed to the passersby: "I'm sorry for causing trouble to everyone!"

After saying that, Renai started running again and squeezed into the crowd.

Taoxiang didn't chase after him, but stopped where she was and thought about it.

She had originally planned to return to her hometown after recording this episode, but Rencai's voice today made her hear a new possibility.

A possibility to continue his musical dream - to form a new band with Jinna.

Nina’s voice is exactly the sound she needs for musical expression.

Rebellious, uncompromising, and with a touch of dreams.

Yes, Nina’s singing skills are not very good and her vocal range is not very stable, but this is a common problem for amateur singers.

The feeling when Renai sings is like a torch in the dark, which cannot be learned by anyone with good singing skills.

Taoxiang's heart, which had already "accepted its fate", was ignited with a new flame.
