Kikuri Hiroi pulled out her phone. "Guys, I have a big job!"

"Come out and assemble!"

Yes, just do it!

Chapter Thirty-Six...that's it.

Meanwhile, in Shinjuku, Tokyo, at Circle.

Roselia's performance went as smoothly as expected.

"FIRE BIRD" opens with a delicate piano accompaniment and the lead singer's beautiful vocals.

With the drummer's heavy slamming down, the reverberation of the bass and guitar culminates in Yuki Minato's soaring vocals.

The cheers from the crowd and the exhilarating atmosphere brought the audience's emotions to a peak.

This is a level of professional skill that even the top boss acknowledges.

After the performance, Narusawa Kaede and Yamada Ryo met Imai Risa, who hadn't had time to change out of her performance costume. Her bass had already been taken home by her boyfriend; she had come to find them.

"Sorry... not all the people in the group before us arrived, so the manager let us go first. We've kept you waiting."

After introducing herself to Yamada Ryo, Imai Lisa clasped her hands apologetically. This was understandable. She had invited him, but due to the sudden change of events, she had to keep her guest waiting...

Mingze Feng: "No, we had a lot of fun. The concert was amazing; both the melodious singing and the breathtaking music were very memorable..."

Ryo Yamada: "Very distinctive music, and the lead singer is still very...standard."

Just now, Yamada Ryo also raised a glow stick and waved it back and forth with Naruzawa Kaede.

"That's great..." Lisa Imai wiped away her tears with emotion. "Ah, I'll take you backstage. Don't worry, Ayako and the others are very easy to get along with."

She still had some concerns; she kept thinking that if she didn't go back soon, her uniquely talented teammates might tear down the rest room...

Imai Risa unconsciously quickened her pace, walking ahead of Narusawa Kaede and Yamada Ryo.

When Naruzawa Kaede heard Yamada Ryo say that she wanted to talk about girls, she told him not to eavesdrop.

[It was basically about girls whispering to each other, then about the bass, and then about performing on stage.]

Yamada Ryo tiptoed and took two quick steps.

"Imai-senpai, I have a question to ask..." "Just call me Lisa."

"Risa, how do you handle your relationships with your bandmates?"

"Hmm~ Hmph." Imai Lisa's gaze swept over the bass behind her, then drifted between Narusawa Kaede and Yamada Ryo.

Hmm... teenage boys and girls? Hehe, not bad...

[Senpai, stop keeping me in suspense... I do want to play with Kaede, but Nijika seems to care a lot about him.]

Behind the two, Mingze Feng was slightly taken aback.

Although he was very familiar with Ijichi Nijika's older sister, he and Ijichi Nijika had not yet met, even though he deliberately avoided her.

If Ichika found out he was only a middle school student...

"I'm betting my entire reputation, please stop bothering me!"

No, no, no, Ijichi Hoshika has no reputation to speak of, so it should be, "If Nijika knew, Watashi..."

"Xingge, you don't want Hongxia to know about us, do you..."

some type of.

Yamada Ryo waved his hand, "Hey~ hey—, if you keep spacing out, your senior will walk far away."

Lisa Imai made a cheering gesture from the front.

If you want to convey your feelings, let's play together. Music communicates emotions; let's communicate through the sounds of our hearts.

When the three of them arrived at the lounge, the situation was exactly as Lisa Imai had described; as far as the eye could see, it was a scene of utter devastation, if not complete chaos.

Roselia's group sat in the center of the room. Minato Yukina approached Imai Risa and handed her a flyer.

"We want to participate in the unconfirmed Rilot!"

She spoke with a confident and spirited air.

"Let's use this as a preview of next year's World Future Music Festival!"

He described world-class competitions with a nonchalant air.

"Please! Oh my god! Without Lisa, I can't convince everyone..."

It just ended up being a bit silly.

Guitarist: "We don't mean any objection, but didn't we agree to tutor you until you get into university by the end of the year?"

Drummer: "It's cool, but Yukina-chan, it'll be hard for you to graduate like this, you know? Aren't you going to participate in next year's competition?"

Keyboardist Rinko Shirakane: "Um... what everyone said makes... sense..."

Lisa Imai sighed, "Yukina-chan, you know it's really difficult for you to get into university right now, you know... really..."

"But... I promised Xiangcheng I'd give them a demonstration..."

Lisa Imai turned around, slightly apologetic. "It seems we need to discuss some things in our group... I'm really sorry... Ayako! Bring me the cookies I made, don't just keep eating them."

Naruzawa Kaede accepted a box of exquisite cookies. Ayako, a petite purple-haired loli, playfully tattled on Minato Yuki's seemingly cold but actually arrogant nature.

Next, we'll discuss matters within Roselia.

"It feels cool, everything is going by so fast."

"I'm so happy. Free tickets, and cookies made by Lisa-senpai... um, wasabi flavored..."

Mingze Feng turned on the water and handed it to her.

[And there's Lisa-senpai's secret... to treat your companions with love and understanding... unfortunately, I'm not very good at that...]

So far, you haven't been bad at anything, have you?

Whether it's tolerance or love.

You are observant, thoughtful, and possess the ability to love and the charm to be loved.

Yamada Ryo didn't continue browsing in that building; Narusawa Kaede accompanied her, following along. They strolled along the street, heading east, until they reached the nearby shopping district, passing bakeries, cafes, flower shops...

Yamada Ryo led him into a clothing store... The store was small and simple, and an elderly woman was minding it, wearing a thick brown cotton coat. As soon as the old woman saw Yamada Ryo, she greeted him:

"Xiao Liang, you've come to see me again?"

"Hmm..." Yamada Ryo held Narusawa Kaede's hand.

Naruzawa Kaede stopped beside her, a head taller than her. He held Yamada Ryo's hand with his left hand, and carried a bag of cookies in his right. His eyes flickered...

Mother-in-law, I brought it.

Is Xiaoliang at this stage too...?

It seems to be an elder whom Yamada Ryo acknowledges?

Ming Zefeng bowed slightly: "Good afternoon, Grandma. I am Ming Zefeng."

The old woman smiled kindly, "Xiao Feng, look at whatever you want to see..."

The conversation between the group came to an abrupt end, and Yamada Ryo then focused intently on picking out several sets of clothes and handing them over.

Mingze Feng: "......"

Do you want me to change into it?

[...I've always been interested in menswear, and now I finally have the chance to try it out.]

Am I not your clothes hanger?

“Just a few items, leave them with me, you can come anytime…” Yamada Ryo said meaningfully.

"okay."

While Naruzawa Kaede was changing clothes, the old woman came to Yamada Ryo's side and immediately noticed that the bass bag next to her was new.

"Was it a gift from your boyfriend?"

"Hmm...but he's not my boyfriend yet...it's a bit too early."

Yamada Ryo tiptoed gently, her body swaying back and forth. The joy she had hidden all along could no longer be contained; she seemed to cheer and jump for joy, like a sweet little bee.

The old woman asked, "Xiao Liang, have you thought this through carefully?"

“No,” Yamada Ryo said without hesitation. “I don’t want to miss out.”

"...That really has your unique style, Xiao Liang."

"R-san, how's this?" Narusawa Kaede asked, having changed her clothes, as she sat in Yamada Ryo's...

"Hmm, Mother-in-law, do you have this style in two sizes smaller? I want them both..."

She pressed down on Mingze Feng's hand as he was about to pay and said, "I'll pay."

As a return gift, there's also... well, that's all.

Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Truth of Anonymity

[Form a band and play together]

[To convey feelings through ensemble playing]

The future, freedom, and love.

on Monday.

He woke up at the Yamada house in the morning and was dragged to school by Yamada Ryo. It had been a long time since Narusawa Kaede had been there... He himself couldn't even remember how long it had been since he last came.

After all, wasn't it planned that I would repeat the third year of junior high school next year...?

After thinking about it, Yamada Ryo realized that if she were to be in the same grade as Kaede next year, her club plans could probably be put into action.

yeah.

Naruzawa Kaede saw everything he should and shouldn't have seen, but since Yamada Ryo didn't say anything, he couldn't bring himself to speak up either.

Pedestrians are heading to work on the road, while tall, lush green plants grow on both sides of the road.

At the school gate, after making a promise to meet Yamada Ryo at noon, Narusawa Kaede followed his memories back to the classroom.

But when he stepped into the classroom, the space, which was originally noisy with the drowsiness of the morning, seemed to freeze.

The classroom fell silent instantly.

More than twenty pairs of bright eyes stared at him, making Ming Zefeng somewhat puzzled.

He glanced at it briefly, uttering a string of nonsensical words.

This person...

He is...

[He beat that guy up and still came back, that's amazing!]

That's what happened.

Despite being stared at by so many eyes, Mingze Feng didn't feel nervous. He waved his hand and said, "Don't keep looking at me, everyone. Let's keep talking. How was everyone's last night... I mean, is the new teacher still a pervert?"

Being too relaxed led to a slip of the tongue, but the students should be doing well.

That's clearly not what you meant!

But as the school bell rang, the person standing on the podium again was someone I knew. It was the same new teacher I had met before, the one who had led Ichiji Nijika, who had become the new homeroom teacher.

This world is truly absurd.

There's not much to say about the lessons in the second and third years of junior high. If Mingze Feng were to repeat them, he could do it anyway. His memory is far better than before. He didn't feel it when he was practicing bass and guitar, but now that he's in class, he feels a sense of fulfillment as knowledge is poured directly into his head.

When the noon bell rang, it was naturally time for his appointment with Yamada Ryo.

As for the location, it is an empty classroom converted from a storage room, located in a corner on the fourth floor of the club activity building.

Because it's a storage room, it's only half the size of a regular classroom. But since only two people are sitting there, it feels quite empty.

"I've prepared honey milk... I saw some online discussions about boiling water and then cooling it down, are you interested?"
