Chapter 126 Imperial Tea
Chapter 126 Imperial Tea
After school.
Today, Bai Qiu needs to go to Ochanomizu with the End Band and buy a guitar with Goto Ichiri.
Goto Ichiri received 30 yen in advertising revenue from her father's Guitar Hero account.
Her father borrowed her guitar and took it to an old shop for repairs.
So, on her father's advice, Goto Ichiri decided to buy her own guitar.
After the band finished their performance, the group headed towards Ochanomizu.
The group of one man and four women, carrying musical instruments, attracted the attention of passersby.
Because of the success of the performance on the cultural festival stage.
The atmosphere at the end of the band's performance today was quite good.
"If we're talking about music instrument stores, we definitely have to check out Ochanomizu."
Kita Ikuyo spoke excitedly, then asked curiously, "But why are there so many musical instrument shops here?"
Yamada Ryo quickly jumped out and answered:
"After the oldest professional orchestra in Japan was established in the Meiji era, music activities began to flourish in Tokyo...blah blah blah..."
"Many of the time-honored shops that are still around today opened at Yu Cha Shui, and then... blah blah blah..."
Bai Qiu sighed, "It feels like Liang can keep talking in one sentence."
Ichi Nijika nodded: "Yes."
Yamada Ryo, who is usually quiet, becomes very talkative when he talks about topics that interest him.
In this situation, the band ended their journey and went into a music store in Ochanomizu.
Everyone was about to go into the music store.
Goto Ichiri stopped walking.
She originally planned to shop online.
However, everyone says you have to go to a physical store to see it for yourself and try it out.
It's too late to regret now.
How to do how to do?
Just put on your headphones and pretend you're listening to music when you go inside.
That way, the shop assistants won't talk to her anymore, right?
Hey hey!
Bai Qiu waved his hand in front of his eyes.
"Yili, doing this will only make everyone pay more attention to you."
"Eh! Really?!" Goto Ichiri's face fell, and she looked at Shiraaki in surprise.
"Qiu Jun... haven't you gone in yet?"
Bai Qiu nodded, looked at Yi Li and encouraged him, "With everyone here, Yi Li doesn't need to worry."
Goto Ichiri nodded awkwardly.
Bai Qiu continued, "Just pick the guitar you like, and leave the rest to me."
Goto Ichiri's eyes lit up, and he felt his heart race.
Bai Qiu had just taken a step when she realized that the back of her clothes was being grabbed by Yi Li.
Bai Qiu smiled and walked inside.
We went into the music store.
Everyone started picking out musical instruments and accessories that interested them.
Only Ichi Nijika felt a little bored.
Because there's nothing related to drums here.
Is this what they call the drummer's lonely moment...?
Hongxia raised her finger and said, "How about I buy a few guitars or basses too?"
"Are you going to use your guitar and bass as drumsticks?" Yamada Ryo said.
Everyone imagined the scene of Nijigasaki playing the drums with a guitar and bass...
Bai Qiu laughed and said, "I'll check out the drum set shop next time."
Hongxia looked at Bai Qiu with teary eyes: "Qiu-jun...!"
At this moment, Yamada Ryo politely asked the shop assistant next to him.
"May I strike the string?"
The shop assistant smiled and said, "Of course, sir."
Kita looked at Ryo and asked, "Ryo-senpai, are you going to buy a new bass again?"
Yamada Ryo shook his head, his tone deep.
"No, I'm just a little interested in this bass."
This guy isn't going to...
Bai Qiu, who knows the plot, and Hong Xia, who is familiar with Liang, also know.
Liang is about to show off.
Sure enough, as Yamada Ryo's hand touched the string.
A rapid buzzing sound rang out in the music store.
Yamada Ryo exerted all his strength, his fingers trembling.
"Uh... if it's so tiring, why don't you just not do it?"
Seeing that Yamada Ryo would have collapsed to the ground if he hadn't been supported by Bai Qiu, Bai Qiu sighed.
"Cough...you...you don't understand...!" Yamada Ryo gasped for breath, using Shiraaki as a support without any hesitation.
"Yes, yes..." Bai Qiu waved his hand dismissively.
"By the way, can I borrow some money?" Yamada Ryo asked.
Bai Qiu's eyes lit up. "Okay."
Then, Bai Qiu smiled and handed the wallet to Yamada Ryo.
Yamada Ryo was taken aback.
She just asked a casual question, as usual.
Yamada Ryo's eyes widened.
She could hardly believe that Bai Qiu had actually given her her wallet.
Yamada Ryo decisively accepted it.
however……
The wallet was thin and light.
Yamada Ryo had a bad feeling and opened it.
Unlike yesterday's heavy wallet, Bai Qiu's wallet is empty today.
Bai Qiu looked at Liang beside her and the corners of her lips curled up.
He hadn't had time to replenish his wallet yet.
……
RiNG Live House.
In the practice room.
Shiina Riki looked at the sheet music in his hand with a serious expression, carefully considering whether there were any areas that could be improved.
Clang.
The practice room door was pushed open, and Chihaya Aine and the others walked in.
Everyone paused for a moment, then looked at Shiina Tatsuki with some surprise.
Although Shiina Tatsuki is usually the first one to arrive.
However, Shiina Tatsuki seems a little different today.
Oh...it's clothes.
Everyone found out.
Today, Lixi is wearing neither a school uniform nor RiNG's work clothes.
Instead, she wore a black inner layer, a white shirt jacket over it, blue shorts, and a belt around her waist.
Combined with Shiina Tatsuki's indifferent face, it gives him a slightly heroic air.
Shiina Tatsuki felt a little uncomfortable being stared at like that.
Shiina Tatsuki frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Nagasaki Motoyo asked in confusion, "Did Riki-chan not go to school today?"
"I've taken leave."
"Eh?!"
Upon hearing this, the other girls, who diligently attended school and at least dared not skip classes, all showed expressions of surprise.
"Are you taking leave?" Gao Songdeng looked at Li Xi and asked with some concern, "Is Li Xi feeling unwell?"
Shiina Tatsuki shook her head. "I'm fine."
Nagasaki Motoyo then noticed that Shiina Tatsuki seemed to be in poor mental condition, with heavy dark circles under her eyes.
Su Shi asked with concern, "Li Xi, what happened?"
"Skipping class?" Chihaya Aine opened her mouth in surprise, then smiled and teased, "I didn't expect Riki to be a problem student."
Shiina Tatsuki did not answer the two of them, but instead took out sheets of sheet music that had been printed out in advance.
"This is a piece of music."
Upon hearing this, everyone showed expressions of surprise and delight.
Only Nagasaki Motoyo seemed to have thought of something, and paused slightly in a daze.
"Oh, so he went to compose music."
Chihaya Aine exclaimed in surprise and curiously took the sheet music to look at it.
Ai Yin was stunned for a moment.
She seems to not quite understand.
Chihaya Aine then asked in confusion, "Isn't there a sheet music that explains where to press which part?"
Nagasaki Motoyo thought for a moment and said, "Aine-chan is talking about fingering charts, right?"
"Mmm!" Chihaya Aine nodded her chin and looked at Shiina Tatsuki.
“No,” Shiina Tatsuki replied, “Just follow along and play it.”
"Huh?" Chihaya Aine hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but ask, "Can't we add it?"
Shiina Tatsuki had already gone to her seat. "I can't add anyone else."
Chihaya Aine sighed and pursed her lips.
At this time.
The practice room door was suddenly pushed open.
Yoro Nai, whom I hadn't seen for several days, came in.
"Lena..."
"Little Lenai..."
"stray cat?"
Shiina Tatsuki exclaimed in surprise.
Lenai hummed softly, and then, to everyone's surprise,
She walked straight to the sheet music that Lixi had placed on the shelf and started glancing at it.
“Wait, stray cat, there’s no part for you,” Shiina Riki told Kaname.
however.
Yue Nai looked at the sheet music on her own. Soon, she walked to the side and began to play.
In a very short time, Rakuna improvised a guitar piece based on Shiina Tatsuki's new song.
Shiina Tatsuki's eyes widened slightly, then she said, "Let's add this part in too."
Immediately afterwards, Shiina Ritsuki walked up to Kaname and said seriously, "Stray cat, starting tomorrow, remember to come and practice."
Say it.
Shiina Tatsuki returned to her seat, packed her belongings, and planned to go home to rearrange the new song.
Seeing this, Nagasaki Motoyo was a little confused, and she looked at Shiina Tatsuki.
"Is Lixi going back? What about today's practice?"
"Cancel it, or you can practice first."
Shiina Tatsuki answered, already slinging her bag over her shoulder.
Immediately afterwards, Shiina Tatsuki walked past everyone and headed towards the door of the practice room.
Nagasaki Motoyo felt somewhat worried about Shiina Tatsuki's mental state.
"Wait, Lixi, is there anything we can do?"
Nagasaki Motoyo quickly walked up to Shiina Tatsuki and said, "If you have any, just tell us."
The other girls also looked over, their eyes filled with concern as they gazed at Lixi.
I have a feeling that Lixi isn't acting right today.
Shiina Tatsuki was blocked and paused for a moment.
"I can do it myself."
Nagasaki Motoyo looked somewhat disappointed.
Shiina Tatsuki was about to leave after bypassing Nagasaki Motoyo.
Nagasaki Motoyo couldn't help but murmur, "If only... Shoko had been willing to help back then."
