“Ma Gui, hot sweat and cold sweat are two different things. You are just sweating because you are feeling guilty, which also shows that your exam results are terrible.”
Kuno Tachibana stood by the window, opening it a crack to let in a cool breeze.
"Miya, have you finalized your ensemble?"
"Yes, Minister Eto came to see the three of us. She said she wants to play Nelson's woodwind ensemble, but we don't know the specific piece yet. We'll wait for her to arrange it."
"Oh? It seems we're enemies now."
Kuno Tachibana waved his little fist at the air and said,
"It seems I need to thoroughly defeat you woodwind players and show you who the true king of the wind band is."
Mia Nagasawa remained completely unfazed, crossing her arms.
"Huh? I think the quality of the woodwind instruments in the Shenxu Wind Ensemble is several levels better than that of the metal instruments."
She added, "I won't add any three-year senior students."
Kurosawa Maki pouted, her face contorted in a grimace, her gaze fixed intently on Kuno Tatsuka as she spoke:
"There are just too many guys like Li Hua and Jin Ba!"
"Only three boys, right?" Kuno Tachibana said.
Kurosawa Maki spread his hands and cried out in extreme pain:
"The problem is there are fewer than six boys in the brass band right now! And our group makes up that many! Is that normal?!"
"What can we do? All the boys are gathered in the percussion and violin sections, there's not a single woodwind section," Kuno Tachibana said dismissively.
Kurosawa Maki paused for a moment, then raised her eyebrows, clenched her right fist and struck her left hand, giving him an "I know" look.
He quickly raised his hand to cover his eyes:
Nagasawa Miyabi said with a frustrated look, "What's gotten into you all of a sudden?"
Goto Yu's gaze kept shifting between their faces and the book on the table titled "Christmas Dream Festival! Do You Understand Anti-Japanese War!"
"Don't overthink it," Kuno Tachibana said.
"But...but she's really resistant to men's advances! Is that normal? No, once you think about it seriously, you'll realize that this isn't normal!"
Kurosawa Maki rested her hands on the chair, tucked between her legs. Because she was surrounded by friends, her posture wasn't very elegant, and you could even see the seams of her pantyhose.
"Your imagination is a bit too vivid. I just think the smaller size of the gold tube would be more powerful."
Kuno Tachibana looked at her like she was an idiot, then shook his head and said...
"And I have absolutely no interest in these little kids."
“You’re not that old, are you?” Nagasawa Miya said.
Kurosawa Maki chuckled, feeling that she was getting closer and closer to Kuno Tachibana's secret. As long as she could resist the male members of the observation team, she would definitely be able to find Kuno Tachibana's lover.
“Ma Gui, you have a very important task this time. The bass part is crucial. In order to prevent me from struggling, you need to practice as much as possible.”
"In 'Another Bottle of Champagne,' there are a lot of repeated eighth notes and dotted rhythms, and the staccato is also very strong. But it is precisely because of its high difficulty that I chose this piece."
"Although you need a steady F for some of the time, you can also add a sense of humor to the playing by noting the dynamic markings at the end of the score, such as loud to soft and soft to loud. I think you can do the best in this aspect."
"What names are you reading out here?" Nagasawa Miya was the first to lose her temper.
Kurosawa Maki pinched his chin and gave her a wicked smile:
"I am conducting an experiment on the micro-expression changes that occur when the other person hears a name that resonates with them."
"and then?"
"Tachibana is hiding his true intentions very well; we may need to observe him further," Kurosawa Maki concluded.
"I've already said it, I'm not dating anyone."
Kuno Tachibana gently poked Kurosawa Maki's cheek with her finger. "Besides, you all heard what I just said, right? If anything goes wrong, I, as the orchestra's principal, won't give you a hard time, okay?"
"You can fool Miya, but you can't fool me!"
Kurosawa Maki deliberately swallowed a big gulp, then handed over Kuno Tachibana's finger.
"I'm going to find your boyfriend!"
"What's the point of catching them?"
"I can laugh at you! Because I know just how bad the male band members are, except for Mr. Kitahara!"
Chapter 408, Section 407: In her presence, weakness is a good thing.
In the afternoon, Shinomiya Haruka arrived at Shin-Asahi High School.
She greeted the older man, Tomorrow, warmly, and even when she brushed past a teacher in the hallway, she could respectfully pronounce the teacher's name.
"I have this feeling that you know Shenxu better than I do?" Kitahara Hakuma led her to the club building.
Shinomiya Haruka kept looking at the surrounding scenery, although for Kitahara Hakuba, this was a rather boring sight:
"After all, there are many people a person can remember in their lifetime."
"Not to mention a woman like you."
"What do you mean by 'a woman like me'?" Shinomiya Haruka gave him a wary look.
“I prefer the positive connotation; it’s something I’ll remember for a lifetime,” Kitahara Hakuba said with a smile.
At school, Shinomiya Haruka would not voluntarily approach the back of Rokuhoku Hakuba.
While sharing her high-quality boyfriend with other women might be interesting, it's unnecessary and unnecessary for her.
Instead of going to the main music classroom, they went to the music classroom on the first floor.
Kitahara Shiro opened the door, glancing around the classroom. Nagase Tsukiyo, Isomoto Yuka, and Kanzaki Eri were gathered together.
In the corner, there was a brown upright piano.
Strangely, they didn't seem to be talking; they were simply sitting together.
Especially considering Isomoto Yuka's embarrassed face, which made him look like he wanted to jump into the river, it was clear how gloomy the atmosphere was between the three of them when he wasn't there.
"It seems this group consists of beautiful girls."
Shinomiya Haruka forced a smile, raised her hands and waved, saying...
"Well, it's a bit strange to introduce myself now, but I'm Shinomiya Haruka, who will be playing the piano today. Nice to meet you."
Seeing Shinomiya Haruka bowing deeply, Nagase Tsukiyo and Isomoto Yuka quickly stood up and bowed in the same manner.
"I am Nagase Tsukiyo, who plays the trumpet. Nice to meet you."
"Isomoto Yuka, euphonium, please take good care of me, Shinomiya-sensei."
Eri Kanzaki was a beat slower than usual; her long hair swayed gently as she bowed, but she didn't say anything.
Shinomiya Haruka had noticed it long ago, but she directly cast her gaze at Kitahara Hyakuma, raising her eyebrows slightly, as if to say—
"Can we really communicate effectively?"
Kitahara Hakuba clasped his hands together, a gentle smile playing on his lips, and said:
"Don't be afraid of Ms. Shinomiya. She is actually very gentle in private. As long as you don't make any basic mistakes, you won't be scolded."
Haruka Shinomiya crossed her arms and laughed heartily.
"The way you're saying it makes it sound like I'm a terrible person?"
Nagase Tsukiyo's gaze lingered on Shinomiya Haruka's body. Her wine-red cotton dress almost completely covered her lower body, revealing only her slender ankles.
Shinomiya Haruka didn't reveal much skin, but it was like the silent fragrance of a tuberose blooming in the twilight—a relaxed yet confident feminine charm that emanated from her very being.
"Ms. Shinomiya is getting more and more beautiful." Yuka Isomoto pursed her lips, but still managed to force a smile.
Compared to the happy meal they had at her house last time, the girl now appeared incredibly stiff.
Shinomiya Haruka stepped forward, reached out her hand to brush away the strands of hair from her forehead, and said:
"What's wrong? You're starting to be afraid of me again after not seeing me for so long?"
Ah, no, that
2
Yuka Isomoto's face flushed red, but it wasn't out of shyness, but rather from the tension of fearing that the incident would be exposed, causing blood to rush to her cheeks.
Her gaze involuntarily drifted towards Kitahara Hakuba. If Shinomiya-sensei found out that she and another girl had done *that* for Kitahara-sensei...
Everything would be ruined.
Shinomiya Haruka immediately caught her fleeing gaze, and following her gaze, looked back and said to Kitahara Hakuba:
Did you say bad things about me to her?
Kitahara Hakuba smiled calmly and said, "How could I dare?"
“Iso Gen is too nervous,” Nagase Tsukiyo said with a smile.
"Nase-san, aren't you nervous around me?" Shinomiya Haruka asked, a smirk playing on her lips.
Nagase Tsukiyo shook her head, her tone extremely calm and dignified:
"Perhaps it's because I haven't experienced Shinomiya-sensei's guidance, so I don't have much of an impression of it."
"Oh, speaking of which, you weren't in the orchestra when I gave my last instruction."
“Hmm.¤6~1=) Read 3 books=={web?§} ×μ first??× release¨” Nagase Tsukiyo seemed unwilling to say more about this, and simply nodded in response.
"The strongest trumpet player in the brass band."
"You're overly flattering."
"It wasn't me who said it, it was your Kitahara-sensei who kept telling me it," Shinomiya Haruka smiled.
"Hmm," Nagase Tsukiyo said after a moment's hesitation, then bowed to Kitahara Hakuba and said, "Thank you."
Kitahara Hakuma waved his hand.
"Shall we start now? Or should we wait a little longer?" As Shinomiya Haruka said this, her gaze fell on Kanzaki Eri.
The girl's uniform outlines the unique lines of youth, with the top cinched at her slender waist, naturally emphasizing the curves of her lower body.
