MyGO!!! I am the succubus Xiaoxiang?

"Stop making baseless accusations. What I'm saying is, if everyone thinks I can't be an actor, then I'll be one! Then I'll debut, and everyone will say I'm a rising star. Then I'll start a band."

"fraud!"

"Where did I lie to you? Didn't I become an actor? I just quickly retired to start a band."

“…You three!” Anwa Tendo looked at the Tsuzuki Shisen in front of him.

During those years, it was the perseverance of the four girls in one dormitory and their mutual encouragement that enabled An and Tiantong to persevere and become actors.

That's why everyone left and betrayed them.

"I can't be bothered to talk to you." Tsuzuki Shisen shook his head. "Your granddaughter is also planning to become an actress?"

"Ok!"

"Just like your parents, they demanded that you become an actor?"

"No, she just likes him."

"If it's something you like, I think you can tell. At least, I don't need to tell you. That pretentious attitude is a rotten thing that's passed down through generations!"

"..."

"Don't you know better than anyone how unpleasant it is to be forced to be an actor? And did you only like acting because you were forced to? You, the guy who was dry heaving in bed?"

"..."

"You're silent again."

"All you're good at is talking."

"Why am I so great? Because you understand everything I say! Lies don't hurt, but the truth is the sharpest knife! I'm just stating your thoughts, which is why you can never understand me. You're always putting on an act, even if it makes you want to vomit, you're unwilling to stop."

"That's why I hate you; you see right through me."

"So you knew your granddaughter wasn't willing, yet you still forced her to?"

"And what about you? Is your granddaughter really willing to form a band? What if she wants to study hard and go to university? Uh, the way you're saying 'really' suggests that your granddaughter is even more capricious than you are?"

Anhe Tiantong looked at the languid white-haired girl.

. . . . . .

"Phew, I understand. What kept me going and made me successful was my luck and passion, not my parents' demands. It was you three guys who told me about the love for acting. I won't keep pressuring Subaru anymore." An and Tendo sighed.

"But! She has to tell me herself. If Subaru, who I've been suppressing all along, takes the initiative to say what she loves, it must be something she feels is worth devoting her life to. Otherwise, just living off my past achievements and drifting through the entertainment industry is a kind of security, just like your LIVEHOUSE, isn't it?"

"Hmm." Tsuzuki Shisen shrugged, stood at the front desk, and took out a bottle of sake.

"Eh, I don't remember there being a receptionist." Rinrinko looked at this thing that clearly wasn't from the receptionist and was about to say something.

Tsuzuki Shisen glanced over.

She dressed up for the livehouse like the Queen of England going to a pub, while the other person brought her sake that she had been hiding for a long time.

"I don't want to drink?"

"Back then, we said we had to learn how to act drunk, like getting drunk after just two sips!"

“You buy a bottle of vodka, I’ll take two sips, you’ll take one, and the two people next door won’t dare to drink it!” Anhe Tiantong’s eyes seemed to be spitting fire.

The scene from back then is still vivid in my mind.

"Really." Tian Tong sighed, lazily sitting at the front desk and taking a sip of his drink. "Even in his old age, he's still so annoying."

"Let me hear your performance at the livehouse. Is it as you say, capable of touching everyone's hearts, and what you're pursuing?"

As the band members walked onto the stage one by one, Tian Tong smiled and took a sip of his drink.

Let's see for ourselves what our old friends, no, our old grudges, are striving for.

. . . . . .

"Clap, clap!" Xiangzi, who was at the front, waved his clapper to welcome Hailing's band.

"Why do I have to stand at the very front too?!" Li Xi asked Xiang Zi, arms crossed.

All I wanted to do was watch Hai Ling's performance from the sidelines.

It's still my work time.

Deng didn't want to come here because she was afraid there would be too many people. Su Shi had to take care of her mother, saying that her mother rarely gets a day off and she should take good care of her, so she declined her invitation. Then Ai Yin said she was going to check out a popular online influencer's post, so she also declined her invitation.

Ask Xiangzi.

Xiangzi said, "I've already received the invitation, so let's go together!"

Then Xiao Mu said, "Let's go together."

Rakuna also gets one.

So all of us came.

Then, when she was about to help with the work, Rinrinko told her that she had paid for her ticket to get in, not as an employee, so she couldn't go behind the bar and was forced to watch other people perform at Xiangzi's place.

Ah, really.

The key is.

Xiangzi is so flashy!

When Hailing came out, he kept waving the two clappers in his hands.

Pat pat, everyone's watching!

what! !

Hailing!

Hai Ling still saw it, that guy.

"Ha, didn't you say you weren't coming? Why did you come anyway?"

I already know what the other person is going to say!

"Hehehe! Keep it up!" Xiangzi shouted.

Everyone around looked over with smiles. She was lively and cute, and most of them knew Hai Ling to some extent, and many of them were even members of the band.

Of course I understand. How happy I am to have a warm-up audience member during my first performance!

"Do you know that, Lixi!"

"Ok?"

"Hai Ling said that she saw us, which is why she wanted to join the band!"

"Eh?"

"Unbeknownst to us, little by little, we've made more people look forward to the band, and more people choose to pursue happiness! So, isn't that amazing? We, and all those brave people who are moving forward because of us, are all amazing! So! Let's cheer for Hailing!"

"......Hey, that's why I hate arguing with you." Li Xi took the pat from Xiang Zi and started waving it.

"Hey, Hailing! Show me what you've got! Go for it!"

Although unwilling, Lixi waved and patted the ground, a slight smile playing on her lips.

But as he was taking pictures, he looked at Xiangzi.

call.

Have we reached the point where we can empower others?

It was clear before.

That's why it's completely useless for you!

Xiangzi.

As Li Xi gazed at Xiangzi.

Xiangzi was looking at everyone on the stage. As the closest person to Xiangzi, he was less than a meter away from the person on the stage.

You could also clearly feel their nervousness.

Moreover, when he called out to her, the other person actually took a step back in fear.

They seemed very afraid of being looked at.

It's like being a thief.

Moreover, everyone here who sold tickets or received free tickets was brought here by Hailing; you can hear everyone calling out Hailing's name.

Xiangzi saw it, and the drummer looked at Hailing with resentment, saying, "Just as I thought."

Eh?

Xiangzi squinted his eyes.

Before anyone could say they were ready, the drummer raised his hand and started clapping, then immediately got into the beat.

just.

What song is this?

It wasn't until the lead singer started singing that Xiangzi realized it was fireworks.

but.

Isn't that a bit much?

Lixi and Lenai, who were standing next to him, covered their ears in discomfort.

The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Even a layperson can tell something is wrong; if it's discordant, it will sound unpleasant.

However, for experts...

Knowing these sounds, go back and discern them, seek out these sounds.

Then something terrible happened.

For the average person, eating uncleaned pork intestines would be so disgusting that they wouldn't want to eat it again. But for an expert, it would make them think about how it was made, what seasonings were used, and what kind of taste it produced.

It wasn't until finally, when a benchmark was found, that it was barely acceptable.

It's not because we can listen anymore, it's because we've reconciled.

It's a little better than before; it's not so bad anymore.

. . . . . .

The song ends.

No one on stage spoke; they were just waiting for the next song, watching as the drummer prepared to raise his hand to continue.

Then I heard a sound from next door.

"Excuse me, let's stop for a moment!" Tsuzuki Shisen looked at the people on the stage and, hearing Tenwa's suppressed laughter beside him, spoke up.

"What are you guys doing? Are you even practicing? How can your teamwork be so bad!"

"The awful parts, well, never mind that. The most important thing is, listen to this, listen to this, the only accurate one in there is the bass!"

"The bass is the lowest frequency in the performance, and it's hard to hear clearly. And this drum! What is it playing from beginning to end? That's fine, you clearly understand that the bassist is accurate! You should use her as the basis for your performance. Although it's ridiculous to have the bassist lead the rhythm, it's the only way you can at least get a decent listening experience."

"The rest of you finally realized what was happening, and then you drummers became even more nonchalant, acting like 'whatever, let's just do whatever we want!' What does that mean? If you don't want to play the drums, why are you up here? Are you trying to steal the beat from everyone else and cause trouble?"

"If your upcoming performances continue like this, then everyone who has a ticket can come to the front desk later and we'll refund the price for each ticket!"

"RING wants to give people music that can touch their hearts and move them, not this kind of thing."

"I hope you guys can be a little more normal from now on. At the very least, even if it sounds bad, give me some rhythm. At least make it sound like a band!"

"Especially you! Drummer! You'd better get yourself dealt with!"

The drummer who was called out froze instinctively. He looked up, not out of shyness, but out of genuine anger, gritting his teeth as he looked at Hailing.

"Yes, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!" Hai Ling quickly bowed and apologized to everyone.

He placed the bass in front of him, but couldn't bend down; placing it behind him was also wrong, so he quickly put it aside and bowed to everyone to apologize.

"Um, I'm sorry, we'll definitely revise it properly in the future."

"Please believe in us, TTT!! We're so sorry, so very sorry!!"

However, the sincere apology from the bent-over waist and lowered head made Lixi unable to see that the gazes of the other members on the field were all focused on the drummer.
