Yoshihara-senpai’s old friend’s name is Mido Hui.
According to Yoshihara-senpai, Mido Hui now works in a planning company and is mainly responsible for the coordination of music live. In other words, she is responsible for arranging which bands to perform on stage in nearby live houses.
On the first day of the fourth week, Raku Sakakibara made an appointment with her to meet at a coffee shop.
"I heard that Sakakibara-kun has only been practicing bass for more than a month?"
"I had a guitar foundation before, but now I'm just picking up my old skills."
"Having said that, judging from what Nao gave me, your technique is quite mature and much better than many bass players I have seen."
Just yesterday, the morning after the music was completed.
Yoshihara-senpai told everyone that her friend, who is now Mido Hui, needs a performance of theirs to see if they are worthy of being on stage. After all, an old friend can’t help too much. If you invite a team
If a band that can only play Little Star comes on stage, the audience shouldn't boo in unison?
So there is what Mido Hui is talking about now.
Coincidentally, Sakakihara Raku has just completed the first stage of the mission and upgraded his bass technique to Lv. 4 (Master).
It’s not surprising that someone like Mido Hui, who has frequent contact with music, discovered his master-level skills.
"It's too much praise." Raku Sakakibara said modestly.
Mi Duohui waved her hand and said with a smile: "No, no. Although there are many jokes about bass players on the Internet, passers-by think that they are the same whether they have a bass or not. But in fact, if a song does not have a bass backing, it will look very pale.
Weak. The key to bass is to make the band’s music more interesting and rhythmic, and Sakakibara-kun did a great job.”
As Yoshihara-senpai said before coming to meet, Mido-hui is a very well-spoken and obedient person. As a friend of her senior, she has no intention of embarrassing herself at all.
"Hmm. There are five people in your band, right?"
"Yes."
"Are they really all high school students?"
"Hmm."
"I see. I see, that's great. All the members of a rock band are high school students, and four of them are beautiful girls. This is a very eye-catching selling point. Okay, I think you guys
Fully qualified to perform on stage."
Sakakihara Raku was not in a hurry to be happy, because he could see that Mido Hui was thinking and had something else to say.
"I just wonder if Sakakibara-kun can discuss it with your band members and wear your school uniform when you go on stage to perform?"
"." Sakakibara thought it was some kind of target requirement, and he would have to make up the money if he didn't meet it, but he didn't expect it to be this.
"Miss Mido, do you want to emphasize the attributes of high school students?"
"Yes," Mido Hui laughed, "It seems that Sakakibara-kun also understands what I mean. To be honest, there are no bands composed of high school students who can perform in underground live performances at the moment. If you can participate, it will be very helpful to the organizers.
It’s also a new thing.”
This request is nothing to Sakakibara, and high school students are indeed the selling point of their band.
Things went quite smoothly after that.
Most matters have been settled.
"Then, next is the schedule——"
Sakakihara said decisively: "Miss Mido, can you arrange it for tomorrow?"...
"Tomorrow? So anxious?!" Mi Duohui thought seriously for a moment and replied, "But it's unlikely. Tomorrow's bands have already been arranged in order, and we have also notified the other party to come to the scene on time. The fastest.
We have to wait until the day after tomorrow. A band will be absent the day after tomorrow, and I happen to be looking for their replacement."
"Then just follow Miss Mido's arrangements."
"Well, then it's almost settled. The day after tomorrow, right? Nine songs, about one hour in length."
"One hour?" Raku Sakakihara raised an eyebrow.
"You don't think it's too short?" Midohui couldn't help but smile, "Sakakibara-kun is really greedy."
"No, no, it's too long. We don't have that many songs to play. And if we want to add more songs, we also need a certain amount of time to rehearse. It's too much at the moment, so it's a bit reluctant."
"I understand, let me think about it. How about half an hour for those six songs? You can give it more time and change it flexibly."
"That's okay."
"OK, then the matter is settled. The other thing is the salary."
"It's fine if Miss Mido pays you the salary."
"Sakakibara-kun is so polite."

When I got home, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.
A Ling has to work today, while Jiu Liuli and Qi Mingyue are continuing the details of Lanse's new song at the music studio.
With these two talented classical music girls helping to control the details, Sakakibara naturally put a hundred thoughts into it.
Raku Sakakihara couldn't help but feel excited when she thought that the band she founded together with them could go on a formal stage and play a new song composed by them.
The hard work over the past month will soon see real results.
And the relationship between Jiuliuli and Qi Mingyue is also getting better.
Everything is getting better, isn't it?
"I'm back."
Taking out the key and turning the door lock, Raku Sakakihara put on his slippers and walked into the living room as usual.
I took a cup from the kitchen and just went to the water dispenser to get a cup of hot water to drink. From the corner of my eye, I noticed a head sticking out of the corner of the bedroom corridor.
Amami no Yuki held her hands on the wall, her eyes always staring at Sakakihara Raku with pure eyes.
"What's wrong?" Raku Sakakihara put down the water glass, looked over and asked.
"Hungry."
"That's right, it's already seven o'clock," Raku Sakakihara glanced at the clock hanging in the living room, "What does Yuki want to eat?"
"Fried ice cream."
"Eat this again?"
"As Le said, once you write a new song, you can eat it every day."
Well, this is indeed the promise Sakakihara Raku made to her.
"Then you wait in the living room for a while, I will do it for you now."
"Hmm."
Tianhai Zhixue stood out from the bedroom corridor with bare feet. She had long black hair that fell to her waist, and was wearing the blue woolen pajamas she often wore. Her oval-shaped little face was exquisite against the backdrop of a pair of delicate eyebrows.
Small and very well-proportioned.
A pair of bare feet on the floor, coupled with her ethereal white temperament, made Raku Sakakihara think of the first time he saw her.
The Tianhai family’s bloodline is really outstanding, and the women are all beauties.
Sakakihara couldn't help but sigh again.
"Naizhiyuki, why do you always like to go barefoot?"…
"I don't like wearing shoes."
Weird hobbies
But I have to say that Amami Yuki's feet are the most outstanding among the girls' feet that Sakakibara has ever seen. The slender legs are close together, the feet are slender and soft, and the soles of the feet are on the floor, white
Her skin color is as pure and flawless as snow. The thin nails between her white toes are also like crystal clear emeralds.
Probably because of her temperament, she walks lightly and nimblely, as if she is stepping on soft feathers in a white snow scene.
She sat on the sofa in the living room, and Sakakihara couldn't help but glance at her little feet, only feeling that she must be very cold.
"Aren't your feet cold?"
"Cold."
"If it's cold, wear shoes."
Amami Nozuki silently looked down at her feet, then raised her head again and said to Sakakihara Raku: "I don't want to wear them."
".What kind of reason is this?"
Sakakihara went to her bedroom to help her take out the slippers, put them in front of her, "Put them on."
The snow of Tianhai blinked.
Sakakibara thought she was in a daze and didn't hear her.
"Put it on quickly."
"."
"Snow?"
"After all, it's Le's order." Tianhai Zhixue put on her slippers a little pitifully.
"."
Why do you say it as if I'm bullying you?
Sakakibara came to the kitchen and took out eggs, toast, bread crumbs and ice cream from the refrigerator. The toast was changed into a round shape, and then the ice cream was wrapped in dumplings, and finally it was wrapped in egg liquid and dipped in it.
Top with bread crumbs and fry directly in hot oil.
The key to fried ice cream is to control the heat. The ice cream must be the kind that is frozen solid.
After the pan is heated, the outside skin is crispy, but the ice cream inside has only melted a little.
Sakakihara Raku can do this perfectly.
He is completely confident that his current skills are many times better than those of other chefs.
Taking the freshly baked fried ice cream out of the small pan one by one, Raku Sakakibara brought the fried items to the waiting Amami Yuki.
"How was your day today?"
“Delicious.”
Sakakibara was happy to see that she was really comfortable eating and felt a lot more relaxed.
"Although I said those words to you the day before yesterday, if you want to eat, just tell me and I will still make it for you. If nothing else, I am absolutely confident in my craftsmanship." p>
"What is Le's dream?"
"Why do you suddenly ask this? I don't have a dream. I should say that I don't have a dream that is completely my own. If I have to say it, there was a time before when my dream was to be a househusband." Raku Sakakibara said with a smile, "Of course.
It’s just a dream, just a joke. I actually just want to eat soft food and do nothing, and then someone can come and support me. According to reality, this is a complete daydream, right?"
"Eating soft food?"
"Zhixue, you must not understand. After all, making money is very tiring."
"Are you tired?"
"That's for sure. Not everyone is a young lady like you, with a rich father doting on you."
Tianhai Zhixue carefully ate the deep-fried ice cream he made for herself, listening to his voice talking beside her. As the conversation continued, the story of his past came to mind...
For example, what would it be like to have no money? How uncomfortable he and Ah Ling were during the time when they had no money.
The snow in the sky and the sea are listening carefully.
He also talked about the recent band affairs and said that he was happy because the relationship between Qi Mingyue and Jiu Liuli had improved.
Tianhai Zhixue couldn't quite feel what made him happy. She could only see that his facial expression changed when he said this.
"It's finished."
"Are you full?"
Tianhai Zhixue just shook her head.
Sakakibara packed up what she had finished and said, "You're not full. Think of it as a dessert before a meal. It's not good to eat too much of this. Jiu Liuli, Qi Mingyue and A Ling will be back later.
I'll cook first."
“The food made by Le is also delicious.”
"As long as you like it." Sakakihara smiled at her, "Just sit down and rest. Anyway, you have nothing to do. Do you want to watch TV or something?"
"Ling's TV series will start soon."
"You want to watch it together when she comes back, right? Well, I'll open it for you first."
Raku Sakakibara picked up the remote control panel, turned on the 100-inch TV, and tuned her to Suzu's favorite channel. Then he carried the plate into the kitchen and started the last busy work of the day. p>
Amami no Yuki watched him busy, and soon after, he waited until Suzu Sakakihara came home after finishing her work.
She shouted "I'm so exhausted, I'm so exhausted" and didn't bother to take off the small bag on her waist. As soon as she got home, she got a glass of water, and then she lay directly on the sofa and watched TV with Tianhai Zhixue.<
/p>
TV dramas are still Suzu Sakakihara’s favorite love dramas.
The plot reaches a twist and turns, with the plot of confessing to the heroine.
In fact, Tianhai Zhixue doesn't even understand it. She just cares about what she said to the heroine, "I will be willing to cook for you all my life, so please stay with me."
"Bell."
"Huh?" Sakakibara Suzu hugged the carrot doll and sat on the sofa.
"What does this mean?"
"What, what, ah, you said the TV series was just a confession."
"Why. He will be able to cook for her all his life"
"Because it's a confession. As soon as the confession is made, the two start dating. Zhixue, don't you know about love? Why are you still asking this?"
"." Tianhai Zhixue did not answer.
This actually aroused Sakakihara Suzu's curiosity.
In her mind, although this little aunt is a blank slate, she does not understand the concept of communication.
For example, Zhixue knew that the smelly old man was in a relationship with Jiuliuli.
But she clearly understands, why do she still ask?
"Why does Zhixue care so much about this?"
"Because...you can eat until the meal is ready."
Got it.
Suzu Sakakihara understood instantly. It turned out that Yuki only understood the concept of communication, but did not understand the meaning of communication and the emotions contained in communication.
In other words, the girl Tianhai Zhixue has weak emotions. She knows emotions but does not understand them.
"So, Xiao Qi and Xiao Jiu can always eat the dishes cooked by Le Le"
Sakakihara Suzu's eyes widened when she heard this. What does this mean?!
Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu can always eat the food cooked by Le.
Isn’t this what envy means?…
Does this mean that my new friend must also like that guy?!
No, no, no.
Think about it carefully.
The biggest reason for Zhixue is that she likes the food cooked by her brother.
He is not that charming.
It’s not to the point where everyone loves it.
Sakakihara Suzu comforted herself like this, and she quickly felt relieved.
*
After dinner, everyone gathered together, and Raku Sakakihara discussed with them the performance the day after tomorrow. Everyone had no objection to wearing uniforms for the performance. Nanami Mingzuki didn't like it at first, but she didn't mean to refuse. p>
I would like to inform everyone that after training continues in the music studio tomorrow, Raku Sakakihara was the last one to take a shower and leave the bathroom.
He returned to the room and immediately saw someone lying on his bed, still covered with a quilt.
Seven or nine?
Sakakihara couldn't help but start thinking.
Seven doesn't seem to be in the mood today, but Nine has been very clingy to herself lately.
There is nothing wrong with coming to sleep with yourself at night.
With this thought in mind, Sakakibara opened the quilt directly, without even turning on the light, and lay down next to the girl inside.
I was just about to hug him, but the sound I heard next almost scared Sakakibara Rakuhun away.
"Happiness"
"Zhiyuki?! Wait, why are you here?" Raku Sakakibara quickly got out of bed, thinking what happened to his bed, why are you so attracted to women?
Someone secretly arranged a peach blossom array for themselves?!
Fortunately, fortunately I didn’t hug you just now, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to explain anything clearly.
Tianhai Zhixue just poked her head out of the quilt, as if deliberately imitating someone's tone, and said a sentence to him without emotion:
