Shinichi Iwahashi came out of the person in charge's office and went to find Miwa Yoshida and Takaji Gomi.
When she saw him, Yoshida Miwa said: "It's been a long time since I've been there, Shinichi-san."
Iwahashi Shinichi showed the salary he received to Yoshida Miwa and Gomi Takashi, "Tonight's reward."
As soon as he saw the money, Yoshida Miwa forgot about what had happened to him for a long time, "That's great!" Like a money-obsessed man who was so excited when he saw the money, it was all for such a small remuneration.
Having said that, Iwahashi Shinichi was quite happy.
This amount of money is a little small, but it is the first money he has earned since he decided to embark on the path of music. Seriously, this is the first pot of gold.
Thinking about it this way, I still feel a bit reluctant to spend it.
...This is a bit of a benefit.
According to the agreement between Iwahashi Shinichi and Yoshida Miwa, the money he earned from the job he found was divided equally between them. Now Gomi Takashi came to help. In other words, Iwahashi Shinichi divided the money into three parts, leaving a small change.
It’s enough money to drink later.
How can we not celebrate our first successful performance?
Even if you don't celebrate, there's no reason not to invite the helpers to dinner.
However, Gomi Takashi did not accept his reward. "When I told Amaya-san before, I also said that I was here to help."
When he said this, Iwahashi Shinichi was not pretentious. He regarded him as a friend in his heart. He remembered this relationship and put the money together with his share and the change from before. "Then use it to go drinking."
As soon as Miwa Yoshida saw him, he joined in the fun and slapped the money into his hand, "to help finance tonight's drinks."
"Okay." Iwahashi Shinichi smiled.
Yes, the first pot of gold in my music career was spent on drinking.
From the exit of the backstage to the outside, the residual heat and sweat from the performance had not dissipated from the body, and the cold wind of winter made people shiver.
Just as he was about to leave, several girls suddenly ran over from the side, "Miwa-chan! Shinichi-san! Takaji-san!"
The three of them stopped.
"The performance just now was amazing!"
“I really enjoyed your performance!”
"Mei and Sang's singing is so great, I'm going to get goosebumps!"
"Shinichi-san looks really cool when he plays the keyboard!"
"Hsiaoji-san's guitar is also very attractive..."
The girls chattered all over the place and spoke very fast. When they encountered this situation for the first time, Iwahashi Shinichi and Yoshida Miwa were a little confused as to how to react.
Miwa Yoshida was also very loyal and hid behind him quietly, pushing him out to block his words.
Who told him to also be an agent? He had no choice but to deal with it. As he hummed and replied, he thought in his heart: Is this the first batch of fans?
I was just running around for a while, when suddenly something was stuffed into my hand.
He lowered his head and saw that a girl took off the ring on her finger and stuffed it into his hand.
"This..." Iwahashi Shinichi was a little confused.
"You're welcome, please accept it," the girl said. The girl next to her looked at it and laughed.
Shinichi Iwahashi turned to look at Miwa Yoshida, who laughed even harder.
I went to see Gomi Takashi again. This guy didn't smile... He was holding back his smile. What's the difference between laughing and laughing?!
Can't count on anyone.
Shinichi Iwahashi gritted his teeth and opened his mouth: "We are going back first. Everyone else, please go home early. And this, please take it back..."
The girl who was stuffing the ring put her hand back, looked at him with a smile, and ducked away.
The girl next to me laughed even harder.
"See you next time!"
The girls said hello to them and disappeared again.
"Congratulations, Iwahashi-san." Yoshida Miwa also added words of envy beside her.
"What kind of name are you calling 'Iwahashi-san'..." Iwahashi Shinichi complained to her, and looked at the ring lying in his hand. The ring setting was inlaid with tourmaline, which was not a valuable item. Therefore, it was
There is no unease like receiving expensive gifts from fans.
But, what if you take off the ring and give it to a grown man?
"Iwahashi-san can tell at a glance that she is a newbie who doesn't know anything." Gomi Takashi smiled a little bit, "After accepting the ring just now, if I invite her to drink, I will definitely be able to do it."
It's okay if he doesn't explain it, but when he explains it, his head is full of black lines and his head is full of luck.
"What a pity." Yoshida Miwa smiled as if she was gloating, "I missed a great opportunity."
When Iwahashi Shin saw her reaction, he simply stretched his hand forward and gave the ring to her, "Do you want it?"
Yoshida Miwa deliberately put her hands back, and then added fuel to the fire, "The ring that the fans gave to Iwahashi-san, what should I wear it for? One day, if your fans see it, they may scold me and say, 'What else?'
Come back!'
"..." Okay, you are awesome.
Iwahashi Shinichi glanced at her and had no choice but to put the ring in his pocket first.
After serving him as an appetizer, the three of them went into the alley near the station that was full of small bars and restaurants. They randomly picked one of the restaurants that was busy and occupied the short bar counter in one go.
After having two drinks, Iwahashi Shinichi told them both that the person in charge of the livehouse wanted to sign a contract with them to become a regular performing band, as well as the fact that it was discovered that this band was a temporary band.
"Congratulations, this is really a great opportunity." Gomi Takashi was really happy for them and said: "I really like your two performances. If you need support in the future, just call me. As long as the time is right.
Yes, you must participate, or I can introduce you to familiar musicians."
Shinichi Iwahashi said "Thank you" and asked Miwa Yoshida, "What do you think of Miwa-san?"
"If I say I still don't want to form a band, what will Shinichi-san do?" Miwa Yoshida asked, leaning on the bar with one hand.
Iwahashi Shinichi said without hesitation, "If that's the case, I have no choice but to reject it. Anyway, the contract hasn't been officially signed yet. But before that, I will definitely have to have a big fight with you and scold you."
A long-term contract is different from a one-time deal. He could persuade Miwa Yoshida to try to form a band, but if he couldn't persuade her, he would miss the interview and miss an opportunity that should have nothing to do with them.
But for fixed performances, she is the lead singer and core of the band. If he really doesn't want to, Iwahashi Shinichi can't tie her to sing.
"It sounds really scary." Yoshida Miwa's tone revealed that she didn't think so at all.
"So, you really still don't want to form a band?"
Miwa Yoshida smiled, "The scale of the performance is 250 people, so it's a rare opportunity."
She even used the words he said when he persuaded her to form a team to retaliate against him. However, saying this means that
Iwahashi Shinichi asked her: "Do you really think so?"
"It's not necessarily beneficial to lie to you. I'll just get scolded by you, right?" Yoshida Miwa gave him a pair of aggrieved eyes, as if he had just scolded her violently.
But in this way, I can finally give a clear reply to the livehouse and sign a contract with them.
At this time, several half-drunk office workers came in. Seeing this, the three of them were about to leave the store.
After paying the bill and leaving the bar, Gomi Takashi said goodbye to the two of them and left first. The two of them were left alone, and Miwa Yoshida put her hands in her coat pockets and followed behind him.
After walking in silence for a while, Yoshida Miwa broke the silence.
"Actually, it feels pretty good to perform as a band."
"Really think so?" Shinichi Iwahashi asked her.
"Of course." She said, "Especially when the audience who originally laughed at us started cheering, I felt a sense of accomplishment. It was the first time I felt such enthusiasm today. This performance was really great."
"Indeed." The pleasure of conquering the audience is wonderful.
"So, if I can sing like I do today, it doesn't matter whether I am doing solo activities or forming a band. I just want to sing and let more people hear my songs. If forming a band can really bring more success,
If there are more opportunities, it doesn’t hurt to form a team. Besides, I like your way of playing and trust you."
This was something she couldn't say in front of Gomi Takashi.
"In this case, I will sign a contract with Livehouse tomorrow." Shinichi Iwahashi said, "We are the only two official members for now, but we still need to find musicians. When the time is right, we can do another audition and recruit a full-time player.
Musician."
"Let me tell you first, I am very picky about my partners." Miwa Yoshida said, "So far, apart from you, I have only fallen in love with one musician."
"Is there anyone else besides me?"
Pedestrians who caught up from behind and passed by them turned around and took another look when they heard these words.
"You really dare to say that." Yoshida Miwa was amused by him.
All joking aside, Shinichi Iwahashi was quite interested in the musician, "Come and tell me."
Miwa Yoshida didn't show off, "His surname is Nishikawa. I've known him since I was in Hokkaido, and he's also in Tokyo now."
"Fellow fellow."
"That's right, a real fellow countryman who lives in the same city but in a different town. Nihya is what I call him. His full name is Nishikawa Takahiro. Before he came to Tokyo, he was already famous in the local area.
Famous."
Speaking of this, Miwa Yoshida smiled and said, "Nihya has been wearing shiny blond hair since she was in high school, and she has pierced eyebrows all over her body. I don't know how she has the heart to do this to herself."
"Because of his appearance, he is always regarded as a delinquent. When he goes to the shopping mall and encounters the police from the Juvenile Division, he is always the target of special attention."
"Is this kind of fame?" Iwahashi Shinichi smiled.
"That's it, despite his appearance, his personality is quite gentle." Miwa Yoshida blinked, "That kind of fame is only half of it. The other half, as a keyboard player, in a country like ours, is considered
It’s amazing.”
"Keyboard player." Shinichi Iwahashi was a little disappointed.
"Yes, I bumped into Shen Yisang's position." Otherwise, she wouldn't have hidden it.
"What a pity," Iwahashi Shin said, "otherwise, we would have dragged him in."
"However, if there is a chance, I can introduce you to meet."
"That's okay. We can also compete in piano skills then."
"That's not possible." Miwa Yoshida joked about him in turn, "What if you two get into a fight just to show off your skills in front of me?"... He's quite vindictive.
Another pedestrian caught up from behind and passed by them. Hearing these words, he subconsciously turned around and took a look.
