After listening to his explanation, Koshiro Akiko burst into laughter. Among the girls Iwahashi Shinichi has known since his time travel, she is definitely the one with the most bold smile.
Yue Lu Qiuzi smiled and apologized to him, "I'm sorry, I didn't know I caused you such trouble. I just wanted to look for you at first, but your reaction was very interesting, and I was attracted unknowingly..."
Iwahashi Shinichi looked like he had eaten a sour plum, "It's too bad."
"As an apology, I know there is a nice little bar nearby. Can you go there now?" Yuelu Qiuzi invited him.
Iwahashi Shinichi said nothing and looked at her as if waiting for something.
For three months, although they were in the same club, they were doing their own things independently of each other and never said a word. Now, he didn't believe that Yue Lu Qiuzi was waiting for him specifically just to finish these words. Invite him for a drink later.
"Okay," Koshiro Akiko admitted, "Actually, I want to discuss something with you and ask for your help, which is related to your excellent sense of voice... If possible, I hope you can listen to what I have to say and then decide. Agree or refuse."
Iwahashi Shinichi thought about it and thought it wouldn't hurt to listen. So Koshiro Akiko took him into a bar called "Bacchus" hidden among the small bars and restaurants in the alley.
They sat down at the bar and the bartender handed them two towels.
"Yue Lu Sang..."
As soon as Iwahashi Shinichi called out, she seemed to be amused by her name and stopped him, "It was my negligence. My surname is Yoshida and my first name is 'Miwa'. You can call me whatever you want."
"Yoshida-san." Iwahashi Shinichi follows the good deeds.
"Okay." Yoshida Miwa breathed a sigh of relief, "This makes me feel more at ease."
No one would call her "Yuelu-san" in the store, but when she was called that seriously outside, it felt arrogant and unrealistic. After all, the real "Yuelu-san" was a star with the title of Queen of Chanson.
Compared with Koshiji Akiko, Yoshida Miwa is ordinary, like a name that can be seen everywhere. Not only that, Yoshida Miwa told him that when she sang in another club, her stage name was "Eri Machiko", which she imitated. The former popular singer and actor Takakura Ken's wife Eri Chiemi.
"It's quite old."
Both Fubuki Koshiro and Chiemi Eri became famous in the 1950s.
"However, I really like singing, and I also like to respect the singers of this era." Miwa Yoshida said, "Iwahashi-san has such a good voice, must he be able to play the piano?"
"Fortunately, I can play some." Iwahashi Shinichi said modestly.
"I also learned piano when I was a child, but I was too playful and couldn't bring myself to practice. I gave up soon and never learned the piano." Miwa Yoshida started chatting. "Later, I also learned other instruments, but I didn't learn anything. I gave up as soon as I started learning, and I won’t change my mind even if I get scolded.”
That's probably because you lack a feather duster that can beat people. Iwahashi Shinichi thought to himself.
With a good feather duster, the vocals produced by the beating are high-pitched, sweet, mid-range, and low-pitched, strong. After listening to it once, the fever will be gone. If the fever comes again, beat it again, and beat it again, it is so transparent.
"I am impatient with things, except for singing. Even if others say, 'Stop singing, give up!', I still persevere."
So after graduating from high school, she came to Tokyo from her hometown of Hokkaido and sang in clubs for a year or two. During this period, she also wanted to debut as a singer. She sent audition tapes of her own compositions to several record companies, but there was no response from any of them.
.
After drinking two glasses of wine, Miwa Yoshida told him a lot about herself. Not long ago, he knew nothing about Miwa Yoshida, but now, a piano that was out of tune made two parallel lines
There is an intersection.
"Can you also compose music?"
"My father is a music lover, and I have a lot of records at home. I have been listening to them since I was a child. When I was in elementary school, I thought I might be able to do it, so I started trying to compose music."
Iwahashi Shinichi was shocked, "Can you write your own music in elementary school?"
What kind of Mary Sue setting is this? Sister, you are the one who traveled back in time with your past life memories, right?
"Well..." Yoshida Miwa smiled and explained, "To be precise, I used a tape to sing the melody that came to my mind a cappella. I couldn't learn to use music notation, and I didn't know how to play an instrument. This is still the case until now.
"
"That's very impressive." Shinichi Iwahashi praised, then thought that the level of composition also depends on the composition, so it's a bit early to start praising him.
When Iwahashi Shinichi was in high school, there was a male classmate in a certain class who was rumored to be a secret guitar master who was deeply admired by his female classmates. Everyone encouraged him to show off his skills, but the gentleman couldn't resist the kindness and he played a single note in front of everyone.
A song called "Hotel California".
He and his friends were shocked by this skill on the spot, and no one mentioned the guitar master again after that.
Thinking of this, Shinichi Iwahashi asked her tentatively, "Can I sing one of your songs a cappella?"
Mentioning this matter, Yoshida Miwa turned to look at him, "Actually, this is what I want to ask you for help with. You have a good sense of music, so after listening to my a cappella singing, I want to ask you to help me write it.
music score."
Miwa Yoshida told him, "The audition tapes I sent out never came to light. A few days ago, I met an agent from the underground music circle who said he could help me with another question. I gave him the audition tape.
As a result, he said, 'I don't understand what you sang at all. Can you prepare the music score?'"
Speaking of this, she asked in a very puzzled tone, "But, is there any need to say this? If I could write the music score, I wouldn't have given it to him directly from the beginning."
Iwahashi Shinichi made her tone laugh, "You are absolutely right."
"When I was worried, I heard them talking about you and thought you might be able to do it, so I shamelessly came over to ask for your help." Miwa Yoshida said.
"Would you like to help you listen to the score?"
In his previous life, because of his absolute sense of pitch, Iwahashi Shinichi helped others dictate chords. Although the two cannot be generalized, he should be able to do this.
But before that, he asked again: "I want to hear your a cappella singing first, is that okay?"
"Of course." Miwa Yoshida drank the remaining whiskey in the glass and took out her wallet. Just as she was about to pay for the drink, Shinichi Iwahashi refused, "I just got a bonus from the manager tonight. Treat yourself to a drink."
get."
"Should I ask for your help later?"
Iwahashi Shinichi shook his head, "Whether or not I want to help, I have to listen before I can make a decision."
"I know," Miwa Yoshida said reasonably, "Before you are admitted, you have to have an interview first." So she didn't insist anymore, and in the end she just paid for her own drink.
After leaving the bar, Miwa Yoshida said jokingly: "Iwahashi-san understands everything so clearly, be careful not to be considered cold-blooded by girls."
"If you can't tell the difference clearly, it would be annoying if girls think you have a soft personality." Iwahashi Shinichi replied.
Miwa Yoshida agreed, "That's true."
Speaking of interviews, there was no serious interview location. The two of them strolled onto a sparsely populated street. There was a park in front of them, the street lights were dim, and the lush branches and leaves of the trees cast dark shadows.
As if driven by the shadow of the tree, Miwa Yoshida suddenly quickened her pace and approached him. Tonight, she had always given Shinichi Iwahashi a boyish cheerfulness, but only at this moment when she was walking on the night road, she felt
Feminine scent...
He thinks too much.
After the distance suddenly shortened, Miwa Yoshida sang her own song a cappella with a hint of tipsiness.
It’s not that I’m afraid of co-writing, it’s that I’ve already planned it and arranged the interview.
However, after a moment of complaining, Iwahashi Shinichi immediately had no distracting thoughts. Because, he was wholeheartedly attracted by Yoshida Miwa's singing.
The voice of the celestial Miwa Yoshida cannot be related to this word, because her voice is full of fireworks. It is not a distant ethereal voice that seems to come from the clouds and directly hits the soul, but an urban voice that is close to you and full of emotion.
Her voice is rich and retractable, like the waves crashing on the shore. It is completely different from the traditional slender Japanese voice. From it, I can feel that she has a profound jazz background.
With a voice like this, it’s not an exaggeration to say that God will reward you with food.
In addition to her almost perfect singing skills, the song she was singing a cappella at the moment also surprised Shinichi Iwahashi. This song has a beautiful melody and is no less than any song on the market. She wrote it by humming the melody in her head.
The song that came out.
"Is this your original creation? Yoshida-san." After listening to her a cappella song, Iwahashi Shinichi couldn't help but asked as if he was confirming the fact.
"Yes, the name is "Shu 1 Degree No Lover" (Lovers Once a Week)," Miwa Yoshida said, and explained to him, "Because the melody came very smoothly, I was worried whether the melody I had heard was mixed up.
I carefully compared my music for a long time before this, and I was relieved after confirming that this was not the case."
"The lyrics too?"
Miwa Yoshida nodded, shyly but with a little pride.
"Yoshida-san," Shinichi Iwahashi stopped, "I'll help you."
