The well-known song "Ode to Joy" achieved its landmark status in music history with just a few catchy, repetitive syllables. The techniques used in it are still widely used today.
Therefore, good music doesn't need to be too complicated.
Located in a county town in the north, there is a school with dozens of primary school students.
According to Ichiji Hoshika's account, with the closure of schools in the surrounding area due to the declining birth rate, many children's parents went to work in big cities years ago, and their parents have disappeared... With the passing of these children's grandparents, they are scattered in different areas.
Principal Huang raised funds from all over the place, and with the help of his own retirement pension, he established this school, bringing children together to receive an education—from primary school to middle school, and even the college entrance examination...
Bringing the charity performance to the school naturally earned the principal's approval.
The performance, which had only a few dozen children in the audience, was met with only scattered applause and occasional laughter.
Naruzawa Kaede was also on stage, playing the guitar, while Shimizu Eliza and Iwashita Shima played the drums.
It was rare for Kikuri Hiroi not to get drunk, and for once, the Sick Hacks played music that wasn't so ethereal. They covered a bunch of old songs from the last century, including "Coldstream Guard" and "Heal the World"...
The show is over.
Kikuri Hiroi wanted to donate some money.
Although she was the poorest person present, she was also the most generous. Ultimately, the reason this woman lived in near-absolute poverty was that she would spend her meal money on alcohol, and she didn't deserve any sympathy.
Although Kikuri Hiroi didn't have much money, her band did. After the performance fees were distributed, a portion was saved to maintain instruments and cover operating expenses.
Hiroi Kikuri feigned a pitiful expression and approached Iwashita Shima, saying, "Shima, can I borrow some money?"
"Don't borrow money for charity, you idiot."
Narusawa Kaede and Hiroi Kikuri are doing the same thing.
While Hiroi Kikuri was still trying to borrow money from Iwashita Shima, he had already gone to give...
With a face full of black lines, Ijichi Seika did the same thing as Iwashita Shima.
“Feng, you don’t have much money either.” Iji Zhixingge knew about Mingze Feng’s financial situation: besides food and drink, Mingze Feng only had tens of thousands of yuan on hand from the band’s support.
"Money can be earned back." Mingze Feng has this confidence.
“Yes, yes.” Hiroi Kikuri held the same attitude. “Shima, just one thing, don’t you believe me?”
Eliza Shimizu raised her hand, "Why don't you stop arguing? I have an idea."
They went and bought rice, cooking oil, and noodles, delivered them back here, and then drove off.
By this time, the sun had already set. Winter nights come early, and the sun would be setting in another two hours.
On the way back to Tokyo, the snow on the roadside was even more abundant, and before we knew it, it felt as if we had entered a snow-covered region.
Around three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun shone brightly in the sky. The snow covered the fields, and the sunlight made everything sparkle.
Several bare branches stretched backward.
The street signs in Tokyo shimmered with a crystalline light.
"It's snowing again!" Eliza Shimizu looked at the increasingly heavy snow outside the window, as if she had never seen snow before.
Ijichi Seika: "Normally, it wouldn't snow this heavily."
Shima Iwashita added, "The weather forecast says it will snow every few days... Kikuri, remember to wear warm clothes afterwards."
"Kikuri?"
"What are you thinking about?" Naruzawa Kaede shook Hiroi Kikuri, who was deep in thought, and she exclaimed "Ah!"
That old apartment building was really cold; with this much snow, it would freeze to death. I definitely have to go... I stayed at my senior's, Shima's, and Eliza's house a few days ago. Hmm, following the cycle, today...
"that..."
Naruzawa Kaede saw Hiroi Kiku looking over with a hopeful expression.
No, in my shabby place, I gave away the only two bedding sets last night. Do you want to move in and enjoy the breeze with me?
Coincidentally, neither Narusawa Kaede nor Hiroi Kikuri are people who care about these things.
"Kikuri," Iwashita Shima glanced in the rearview mirror, "you haven't done today's practice yet, have you?"
"How about we call it a day... Senior Xingge, you've worked hard too, and so has Feng-kun."
Promise me you won't be a clown! Senior Xingge has been watching you carefully trying to steal someone's partner, okay?
Iwashita Shiki and Hiroi Kikuri were taken away.
In the back seat of the car, Eliza Shimizu rolled down the window and waved her arm, saying, "Come visit me again later! Remember to text me back!"
Ijichi Hoshika and Narusawa Kaede stood side by side, watching them leave.
"...How are you feeling?" Ijichi Seika suddenly asked.
[Shima underestimates me too much. It's good that Kikuri has developed some ambition because of this.]
Since he couldn't guess or see what she was asking, Mingze Feng also asked:
Are you asking about everyone spending half a day together, or something else?
"Being glib and smooth-talking won't work."
"The only things you've tasted are saliva and lip gloss, right?"
"Don't change the subject every time this comes up." Ijichi Hoshika raised her hand, made a fist, and placed it on Narusawa Kaede's shoulder.
"Answer the questions properly." She narrowed her eyes.
Whether you're hanging out with three girls or flirting with Kikuto Hiroi, aren't you being a bit too much of a... central air conditioner...?
Ming Zefeng grasped her hand and joined their fingers together.
"...I feel like I owe you a date."
"Although our road trip plans were interrupted, there's still a lot we can do."
"Xingge, how about we go see the fireworks together tonight? Just the two of us."
Chapter Forty-Seven: Memories
Do I owe you a date...?
Sometimes I wonder, if you weren't so skilled, would we have had the chance to spend the rest of our lives together? No, that's not true either; we might never have had the chance to meet.
【Now……】
Ichika looked at the outstretched hand of Narusawa Kaede and made her choice.
She took his hand.
An exclamation mark appeared, and Mingze Feng raised his eyes and glanced at it.
[Where is the Moon 1: Ichiji Hoshika has made her choice, do you... dare to accept it?]
The road ahead is fraught with difficulties and long and arduous. Remember, once you've grasped something, don't let go. Grab as many as you can.
As for rewards.
It's decryption again... another decryption. The last decryption was about Kikuri Hiroi, which told the story of a modern soul pursuing her dreams.
What about this time?
Having learned from his previous experience, and knowing it would happen in an instant, Mingze Feng immediately accepted the reward.
*Ijichi Hoshika's random thoughts this morning*
Ichika Hoshika is no longer a fourteen-year-old girl. Although some people are hopelessly in love their whole lives, she's not one of them. She knows perfectly well what has happened over the past two weeks.
Initially, she was intoxicated. Alcohol, hormones, and dopamine were manipulating her body, while music, rock music, and an impulse were hypnotizing her mind.
Both her body and mind were telling her that she was in pleasure.
Maybe it's also because Naruzawa Kaede is good-looking?
She has been single since birth for 26 years. When the two embraced and kissed on the Ferris wheel, she was completely held in their arms.
Since her mother's death... no, since she started rebelling in middle school, she had never experienced such a warm embrace. And looking at Mingze Feng's face so close to hers, an even more unique sense of excitement welled up within her.
Physical contact can make people feel at ease and aid in psychotherapy, right? When trying to help Nijika overcome her trauma, Ichiji Seika researched similar studies. She combed Nijika's hair and held her hand to go to a concert. Did Nijika's feelings at those times have any similarities to hers?
Everyone who has ever had a girlfriend knows that when two people are close, they become closer and closer.
but.
Ijichi Hoshika is 26 this year. Although she still can't resist being affectionate, she is no longer the 14-year-old who pursued her budding feelings as a lifelong goal or suffered for the sake of saving face.
She is no longer the same as she used to be.
He has a stable life, a lovely younger sister, and runs his own livehouse. If nothing unexpected happens, this is how his life will be.
This kind of peace is quite wonderful.
But on that day, when a young man, accompanied by a junior he thought he would never see again, shattered the tranquility of Starry, everything began to change.
The regulars at these two shops are completely out of touch with the world.
Time seemed to have left no trace on Hiroi Kikuri, and Iji Tomo Seika knew that the other person had already gone down the path of pursuing her dreams and would never return.
The person has delicate skin and looks like a middle school student. But their behavior, way of speaking, and life experience are completely different.
From the very beginning, when she was drinking with Naruzawa Kaede, her calm demeanor and her style of moving towards Hirokikuri amidst her confusion were simply too captivating for Ichi Seika to look away from.
But the way Narusawa Kaede looked at Hiroi Kikuri from the very beginning was off, and very aggressive. From this alone, one can guess that he's probably been unfaithful...
Ijichi Hoshika was quite confident in her eyesight.
So when Mingze Feng said he wanted to win her over, besides getting goosebumps, she was quite looking forward to what he would do.
The moment she truly experienced this kind of affectionate advances was when Naruzawa Kaede launched a special offensive against her.
Ijichi Seika couldn't help but enjoy it.
This guy is quite likable.
So now, she's just indulging herself a little, a tiny bit.
So before that, it's okay to enjoy yourself a little.
[But if it's just a little indulgence... why would I want to introduce Narusawa Kaede to Nijika? Admit it, I want to continue.]
Yes... I want to continue.
But...
What can't be kept...
Neither of them had ever explored the other's private life... at least Ijichi Hoshika hadn't taken the initiative to find out, precisely because of this concern.
Ichika Saka sadly lit a cigarette, the filter just about to touch her lips...
She suddenly remembered that she had changed to strawberry lip gloss today.
"Ah, I wasn't just... my body was telling the truth..."
Ah, let me watch some videos...
This is a memory of strawberries with a hint of floral fragrance.
That is... before the benefit performance.
*Divider line*
The two walked down the road, their fingers intertwined.
Ming Zefeng frowned; this was quite a shock.
With her fingers very sensitive, Ichiji Hoshika felt Narusawa Kaede clench his fist and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Xingge... I won't let go."
Despite the sudden attack from Naruzawa Kaede, Ijichi Hoshika still turned half her face away.
"Tch, you think this is for elementary school students?"
"In my eyes, Xingge is like a college student who hasn't graduated yet."
Confused, Ichiji Hoshika asked, "Why?"
"I've already withheld your diploma; you'll never graduate from here in this lifetime."
"A teacher like you isn't afraid of encountering students with knives?"
