Honkai Impact 3rd is not considered a small opening

Alicia led her easily to the music room. There were various pieces, well, not many. There were only a few pieces hanging on the wall. Among them, the large harp and piano in the center of the room caught An Yu's eye.

"Stop looking, don't touch anything here. I remember I touched it once before, and Eden spent a long time adjusting it."

An Yu nodded. He understood. It was a miracle that the idiot who casually tuned other people's instruments hadn't been beaten.

Then Alicia pushed open the door to the room and looked at the various musical instruments inside. An Yu was stunned for a moment. Eden... does he have a collecting habit?

It feels like there's a kind of everything.

"Tell me, An Yu, which one are you going to use? It doesn't matter if you break it. Although it sounds outrageous, these things aren't custom-made. We can buy an identical one and put it here."

He snorted softly, seemingly finding Alicia's question silly.

"When it comes to musical instruments, it has to be the guitar."

why?

Because of his good looks, An Yu thought that the coolest thing was to play a guitar while wandering around and traveling to famous mountains and rivers. She used to envy Da Bing's life when she read his books.

To be honest, An Yu sitting on the high stool with his guitar in his arms actually looked quite convincing, kind of cool.

Even Alicia was starting to look forward to it.

But as two minutes passed and the noise still hadn't disappeared, Alicia sensed that something was wrong.

"Can you really play it?"

"I've studied it, but I just haven't mastered it."

I was originally thinking that there might be some benefits to time travel, such as enhanced skills or photographic memory, like being able to recall all the things I learned in the past when I pick up a guitar.

But as it turns out, he was overthinking it.

The truth is, they really didn't have the means. It wasn't that his family was poor; they used to be considered well-off. It's just that in the countryside, there weren't many formal guitar classes available.

"Hmph? So even you, An Yu, have things you don't know. Well then, watch Alicia's performance."

After saying that, Alicia took the guitar. She had never studied it systematically before, but she was a natural talent. After learning from Eden for a few days, she had already mastered the basics.

At least I can laugh at An Yu for not being able to tune her properly, since she can still play it anyway.

An Yu was initially admiring her, but as Alicia's neck gradually rose, he suddenly realized something was wrong. According to the plot, shouldn't Alicia be the one mocking him soon?

“me, doe, lar, ray, doe, lar…” An Yu began to mutter to herself as she thought of this.

"Stop, stop, stop, An Yu, please stop messing with me."

Alright, the fooling around is over. Clutching her guitar, Alicia was ready to drag An Yu out to play.

However, before going out, Alicia checked An Yu's voice, and to be honest, it gave her a big surprise.

The song "Tomorrow Will Be Better" in particular filled her with joy, and she even felt a little reluctant to see it end.

She was full of confidence for today's performance.

Even if you don't have time to stand on a grand stage, performing on the stage of your own life at any time is another kind of beauty.

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush, because I chose the song."

Alicia puffed out her cheeks. She was quite patient at first, but An Yu's words made her a little hot-tempered. What did he mean by "I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush"?

What kind of nonsense is this!

As she spoke, An Yu began searching for the playlist, even hiding it from Alicia when she looked over. However, it was more like she was reciting it from memory than searching.

Although he can only memorize two songs, he can remember all of Phoenix Legend's old songs as long as you give him the tune.

Can't remember the tune? Um, are there really people who can't remember it?

What? You're saying the song is corny? What does that have to do with me, the lead singer?

"By the way, Alicia, are you sure no one can quit, right?"

"Yeah, whoever quits halfway is a puppy."

Actually, quitting isn't a big deal, but in order to have fun, they still have to make a vow, even though neither of them cares whether the other breaks it or not.

"Ding ding! A fiery song from another world!"

"You can hum a few lines. Even if it's a bit corny, it's still a way to perform for money. As long as it's something new, that's fine. And you definitely have to have fun."

"Crude?" Alicia took the lyrics, looked at them, which were completely unfamiliar, and hummed along with An Yu's tune. She felt... it was a bit corny.

But it does sound good.

"Where is this folk song from? I don't think I can find any background music."

Not to mention that it sounds pretty good, at least when I first heard it, Alicia thought it was really nice.

"My hometown is in China, but this era seems to have erased their presence. Only I still remember these voices."

Alicia nodded and didn't ask any more questions. Everyone has their own secrets, and she wasn't surprised. An Yu was even more mysterious than her. Sister Mei was born with knowledge, so it wasn't unreasonable for An Yu to have been to other worlds.

Humming her own lyrics, Alicia thought An Yu was getting better and better. Although these songs were a bit corny, they were catchy and easy to remember, and the song "Tomorrow Will Be Better" really caught her eye.

I'm really curious where An Yu learned it from.

Also, An Yu is such an honest kid. She just handed me such a valuable thing so casually. It feels like An Yu is more like a tycoon than Eden.

Clutching her draft paper, Alicia arrived at a fairly busy intersection with great interest, while An Yu, who described herself as shy and introverted, had already started greeting people.

Hmph, what a fake aloofness.

And it was under these circumstances that Hen, holding Gretchen, encountered the two children again.

An Yu sat leisurely to the side, occasionally taking a sip of mineral water.

Huh, An Yu didn't participate in this kind of activity? That's really strange. But just as Hen was about to greet An Yu, he heard An Yu cooperate with Alicia.

"My wife~"

Alicia: ...

"Aha~"

She sniffed, feeling a little helpless, but still subconsciously continued with the lyrics. She really wanted to play, and she was having a lot of fun right now.

Although she looks forward to everyone shining together, she also feels that it suits her to stand out on her own.

Trace: Joy

Pfft, I can't hold it in anymore, I have to record this and send it to my wife.

An Yu even had time to make a face at Gretchen.

But he didn't actually use his phone; he spent most of his time watching Alicia.

I initially thought these two kids were singing folk songs, but the ending, "Tomorrow Will Be Better," really surprised me for a while.

I wanted to say something, but in the end I didn't. I was just infected by the smile, and I know tomorrow will be better.

Then he took the lead and threw in a five-yuan note...

Chapter 28: Twenty-Eight, Married, and No Pocket Money

Looking at the five yuan on the ground, An Yu and Hen calmly stared at each other. But after others followed suit and started giving tips, An Yu gave up on scrutinizing them.

"Thank you all for coming. I wish you all a prosperous and successful year."

Although the thought of having unlimited money made her a little uneasy, everyone meant well, and An Yu's smile was naturally bright in the face of kindness.

About ten minutes later, while Alicia was still gulping down mineral water to soothe her throat, An Yu had already begun fighting with Hen for custody.

He's genuinely curious about children; he really likes these silly little gadgets.

But an evil adult stopped him.

"Look, you're in a hurry again."

"Xiao Anyu, calm down. You haven't even thanked me for the five yuan I gave you."

Holding Gretchen high, Hen clearly didn't intend to let An Yu hold her. It wasn't that the child was bad, but mainly that the child's imagination was too wild, and Hen wasn't sure if the child would cause trouble.

Moreover, judging from this situation, these two kids are probably just doing this out of pure love, because Hen didn't see a bowl or a hat around.

This is what made An Yu angry; she threw the mark on the ground, and others followed suit.

“I heard that your sister’s lab is having some financial difficulties lately, so I’m helping you out. Don’t underestimate these five dollars; it’s almost half of my daily allowance.”

"Marriage is terrifying. It's true, other people's wives are better, and you don't have to worry about your allowance."

Hen: Huh?

"No, what are you muttering to yourself?"

"I said, marriage is terrible, it's better to be single."

He's single and can do whatever he wants. Although his monthly salary isn't high, he still earns over ten thousand yuan a month, so his life couldn't be more comfortable.

"Ha, that's what people who have never been in a relationship think."

Hen stopped watching the show and helped An Yu and Alicia clean up the tips on the ground. He also took back his five yuan and an extra one.

"Speaking of which, how much pocket money do you get each month, An Yu? You seem quite carefree all the time."

It's not just about being carefree; why doesn't An Yu go to school? This is a question that has always puzzled Hen. To say that Mebius couldn't afford it would be a joke, but An Yu and Alicia, both teenagers, simply didn't continue their education.

"I don't have any pocket money. I'm already very happy that Sister Mei is willing to take me in. I definitely want to earn my own money."

"It's not like I can't support myself. Who else would hesitate for so long before buying a bottle of nutritional drink like you?"

But soon, An Yu touched her pockets and found she had no money.

His entire salary is in that card, and there's no online payment option here, meaning you have to pay in cash or by card.

Thinking of this, An Yu looked at Hen expressionlessly.

Did you just steal one?

“You gave me five dollars, and I took a fifty-dollar note, and you even took the five dollars back.”

"Alright, alright, here's five yuan."

"I really can't do anything with you," Hen said, taking out five yuan from his pocket and stuffing it into An Yu's hand.

"Tch, an adult who doesn't even have pocket money."

As she spoke, An Yu added two hundred yuan to her account, but no money appeared on her person...

Sigh, I'm doomed. I'm even more useless than this useless adult. I gave all my money to Sister Mei.

I feel inexplicably sad. No, what is all this about? I have unlimited money and I'm still out here performing, but in the end, I don't even have the money in my own hands.

Feng Ge's judgment range is really terrible.

Hen clearly didn't feel embarrassed. After helping the two little ones tidy up, he originally planned to continue strolling around, but after looking at An Yu, he felt that he needed to freeload some food and drinks.

At this moment, Alicia finally found out the profits, and her expression was somewhat happy.

"Wow, An Yu, we can really make so much money!"

"It's what you earned, it has nothing to do with me, but I do get some compensation for my intellectual labor."

Thinking of this, An Yu took a few banknotes from Alicia's hand; they were scattered and not much.

"So, if we develop in this direction gradually, do you think we can also become a big star and earn more money?"

Ordinary street performers can only earn pocket money from passersby. More sophisticated performers should earn pocket money from more areas, and the most sophisticated ones sell tickets, ensuring that everyone who comes to see the performance pays.

However... being looked down upon by ordinary people doesn't seem to align with Alicia's thoughts. The ordinary girl felt somewhat melancholy at this moment.

“I believe in you, Alicia. With your voice, you’re destined to be a big star. But I think in this chaotic world, fists seem to be more important.”

An Yu had great faith in Alicia. The reason was that before she transmigrated, she read other people's comments and Alicia seemed to be very powerful. Some even said that she was the number one person after the End.

Moreover, all sorts of words of praise can be used to describe her, but An Yu has not yet realized that she is invincible; she seems more like an ordinary human girl.

"Hehe, that's true. One big star is enough. But doesn't the hero have you, An Yu? I'll just be a pretty girl."

Alicia naturally longed for a glamorous life, but her past wanderings, coupled with her special identity, meant that deep down she longed to be an ordinary, beautiful girl.

It doesn't have to be ordinary, but it must be beautiful.

Hen watched the two little ones boasting to themselves, and to be honest, while he felt that the other was quite silly, he also thought that the two of them might actually be a good match.

Interrupting An Yu's increasingly confident expression, Hen pointed to the milk tea shop next door. An Yu stared at him, then looked at Gretchen, and nodded.

"Speaking of which, An Yu, are you still training lately?"
