Chapter 639: Dedicating My Favorite Story to You (Part I)
Time passed like sand, passing quickly through his fingers, and after Natsuyu stayed at Aragaki's house with Ayase for one night, another period passed.
During this period, the long-prepared performance of the Muses arrived as scheduled. However, unlike the previous ones, this time the performance was not held in the studio hall of Otonogihan Gakuin, but on a special stage in the playground.
On that day, all the members of the club, including Xia You, went over to see it.
After watching the performance, even Shiyu Kasumigaoka, who has always been uninterested in idol groups, has to admit that Muse's performance is very wonderful - whether it is dancing or singing, it has the magic to capture people's hearts.
In this regard, Xia You smiled and did not say anything, not at all surprised.
"The Pure Land of Bliss" can be popular all over East Asia in the previous life, which naturally has its charm, otherwise it would not have been possible to make so many people addicted to it like poisoning, and the cycle repeats until the ears are calloused. And in today's world, there is no reason why it should not be popular if the tastes of the audience have not changed much.
And as Xia You expected, after he recorded the performance video of the muse and uploaded it to Niconico, in just one day, the entire barrage network was detonated!
ββNo. 1 in a single day!
ββThe number one collection in a single day!
ββThe praise rate is the first in a single day!
It can be said that Muse's performance video has rubbed almost all of Nicoico's charts and reached the top. Anyone who opens the website will definitely see a message about the Muse or the Pure Land of Bliss.
With the passage of time, the popularity of performance videos has increased instead of decreasing, and there is a hot trend of radiating from Niconico. For example, on Twitter, the topic of the Pure Land of Bliss has been in the top five hot searches, and it continues to rise.
In addition, situations such as these are happening simultaneously on numerous online forums and websites.
Affected by this, the popularity of Muse ushered in a crazy rise and became popular throughout the Internet!
The charming singing voices of the nine young ladies, as well as the magical dance, have attracted countless melon-eating people for a while.
With their support for Amway, Muse's ranking in the LoveLive regional competition soared like a rocket, quickly surpassing many idol groups that were originally ranked in front of them.
- Its momentum is so strong that it is close to "A-rise" at the top of the list!
Of course, in the eyes of most people, it is not realistic for the muse to surpass "A-rise" in a short period of time.
On the one hand, the difference between the two people's previous popularity was too large, one in the middle and the other at the top of the chart, which was not easy to make up, and on the other hand, after seeing Muse's popularity skyrocket, "A-rise" seemed to have a sense of urgency, and hurriedly held a show and released their new single, trying to pull a wave of popularity to stabilize the situation.
In fact, in the eyes of most people, they were really clever and managed to stabilize the current "A-rise" leadership. Next, as long as you can not be overtaken by the Muses before the end of the regional competition, you can successfully qualify for the national competition.
However, in Xia You's opinion, they are still too naΓ―ve.
Too young, too simple.
Whether it's "A-rise" or anyone else, they think that even if this song and dance is popular, it will not be possible for Muse to reach the top of the list in a short period of time and win the promotion spot. After all, "A-rise" has a deep heritage, it is still last year's champion, and it has a large number of fans, which is by no means comparable to the muse of the new debut.
However, Xia You knew that "Pure Land of Bliss" did possess this kind of magic.
ββIn the previous life, this Divine Comedy was once popular in East Asia, and it was slaughtered in major community forums, which has fully proved its terribleness. In addition, the nine muses are all female high school students, and their appearance and figure are all high, and the "Pure Land of Bliss" performed by them is unlikely to be worse than in their previous lives.
It's only going to get hotter!
Of course, for the sake of safety, Xia You privately found some people to promote the muse, so as to promote their popularity.
And Xia You asked Muse to re-record a performance video of "Pure Land of Bliss", because the performance video he recorded at the scene before was too noisy and the lighting was not good, so that the audience could not truly appreciate the magic of this song and dance.
In addition, he also made a decision to promise the UP masters on Niconico - as long as they don't use "Pure Land of Bliss" for commercial profits, they can learn songs and dances freely.
There is a way that everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high, so that the radiation speed of "Pure Land of Bliss" will become faster and faster, and eventually it will be the same as in the previous life......
- Burning all over East Asia!
β
Recently, in addition to the complete success of Muse's performance and the popularity of "Pure Land of Bliss" on the Internet, a very important thing has happened, that is......
- Kanon's script is complete!
Carefully calculated, from the initial draft to the completion, Kanon took more than three months to write the script.
In terms of speed, Xia You thinks it's not slow.
After all, the person in charge of writing the script was only Senior Sister Shiyu from beginning to end. At most, he wrote the plan, and on the way, he was responsible for reviewing the manuscript sent by the senior sister to confirm whether it was qualified.
If you are qualified, everyone will be happy, and if you are not qualified, you will have to call back for Senior Sister Shiyu to revise it.
Therefore, Xia You really felt that Senior Sister Shiyu had worked hard. In the past few months, he has seen very clearly that in order to take care of light work and write a good game script, she has put in a lot of effort, and even the study time has been reduced a lot.
You must know that unlike him and Megumi Kato and Eiri Sawamura, Shiyu Kasumigaoka is a real third-year student, that is, a so-called graduate.
- In order to prepare for the university exam, her study pressure was quite heavy.
Fortunately, some time ago, Kasumigaoka Shiyu successfully won the guaranteed place of Toyonosaki School Park with her consistently excellent results, and she can go straight to the Waseda University Literature Department next year.
In this way, Xia You finally felt at ease. Think about it, if Kasumigaoka Shiyu fell off the list because he helped him make a game, then he didn't know how to apologize.
After all, he knows very well that being admitted to the Faculty of Literature at Waseda University is one of Kasumigaoka's long-held dreams.
Other than that.
As previously agreed, after the completion of the game part that everyone is responsible for, Xia You will fulfill any of their wishes.
And Kasumigaoka Shiyu, as a member who has already been completed, is naturally qualified to make a wish.
Originally, Xia You was ready to meet a super difficult challenge, after all, Senior Sister Shiyu's personality is too elusive, and God knows what funny wishes she will make.
However...... Things are surprisingly simple.
- Accompany her shopping.
This is Kasumigaoka Shiha's wish.
Seriously, when he heard her make this wish, Xia You really thought he had auditory hallucinations.
It's not right.
It's weird.
It's not a senior sister at all?!
I've worked so hard to write the script for so long, and I'm desperately trying to finish it before everyone, but the wish is so simple?
Xia You couldn't understand.
Xia You was incredible.
But something is wrong, weird is weird, since Kasumigaoka Shiyu has said so, then Xia You has no reason to refuseβand he can't refuse.
After all, God knows if she refused, Kasumigaoka Shiyu would change to the funny wish of [asking him to go out for a naked run] or [brushing her teeth for a week].
With the character of the senior sister, maybe she would really do this kind of thing to toss him.
Thereupon.
On Saturday, Xia You accompanied Kasumigaoka Shiyu to take a tram to Linshi early in the morning to go shopping.
In the process of shopping, he basically goes wherever Shiyu wants to go, and at best he plays the role of a bag worker.
But not long after he walked around, Xia You felt that something was not right, and for some reason, he always felt as if there was a gaze secretly looking at him.
However, when I looked back, I saw nothing.
Originally, Xia You thought it was just an illusion, but when he was watching a movie with Senior Sister Shiyu, he found a crying golden retriever sitting not far away, she wiped her tears with a handkerchief while watching the touching plot in the movie, and the black long straight girl sitting next to her showed a slightly helpless subtle wry smile.
- That's right, it's Eiri and Megumi.
In addition, there are also Ayase, Mahime, Mahaku, Rita, and Black Cat who are distributed in the seats throughout the movie theater......
Well, it can be said that all the members of the harem ...... Well, I mean the members of the community have gathered.
In this regard, although Xia You had a headache, he was not surprised. In fact, he had already wondered if this would be the case when he felt that there were always eyes staring at him along the way.
β¦β¦ I just didn't expect it to come for real.
And after the women were discovered, they were also very embarrassed, and they all bowed their heads and remained silent. Only Mahaku jumped over and hugged Natsuyo - but she was still a child in a sense, so she was negligible.
Especially Ying Lili, who cried and cried because the plot of the movie was too touching, which led to the revelation of her actions, she was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to get into.
To be honest, Xia You didn't mind being followed by them, even if he bumped into him in the movie theater, it didn't matter if he didn't do anything unsightly anyway.
But he didn't know if Senior Sister Shiyu minded. After all, today was a wish that she had spent months trying to earn.
β¦β¦ Obviously, she came first, but she was disrupted by others.
However, after Xia You tentatively asked, Kasumigaoka Shiyu was unexpectedly generous. She said, since you have come here, I believe that you will not be able to go back like this, so let's just go shopping together.
These words stunned the women, and they thought that the tracking action would definitely make Shiyu of Kasumigaoka angry.
And Xia You was also confused.
I'll go!
It's not right.
It's weird.
It's not a senior sister at all?!
According to Xia You's prediction, even if Senior Sister Shiyu is not angry with the girls, at least she will definitely poison him, or poison Ying Lili, right?
But there were none.
Kasumigaoka Shiba has always been calm.
Of course, if he wasn't poisoned, Xia You wasn't disappointed - if he was disappointed, wouldn't it really be a trembling m?
He just couldn't let go of it, and he always felt that something was wrong. After all, this is not in line with Kasumigaoka Shiyu's usual style of acting.
But it's always a good thing not to have a poisonous tongue, so he didn't think much of it.
In addition, since the person concerned, Kasumigaoka Shiyu didn't mind, everyone simply joined the ranks of shopping.
ββAnd today's date between the two has become a collective outing of the club.
After leaving the cinema, everyone went to a nearby shopping mall to pick out clothes, so picking, shopping around, and soon, an afternoon passed
After dinner, everyone was still a little unsatisfied, so Ying Lili suggested that they should go to her house for the night, and everyone would play poker or something.
And this proposal won the response of everyone.
Seeing this, Xia You originally said that he could come to his house, after all, the tram stop is very close to the villa, and it is only a few steps away. In addition, compared with the Sawamura family, the spaciousness of the villa is not far behind, enough for the women to stay together.
However, his well-intentioned proposal was unanimously rejected by the girls, citing fears of danger to chastity......
- Well, it seems that he has been thoroughly identified as a scumbag, and he may attack them at any time.
Seriously, being guarded to this extent made Xia You a little aggrieved. After all, he is a scumbag, he has never attacked anyone at night, let alone forced anyone, everything is what you want and I do.
And what happened next made Xia You even more aggrieved.
Talking and talking, somehow, the club proposed by Ying Lili became a house for all female members.
β¦β¦ Well, that is, he was left out.
As for the reason, they will have to sleep at night, and it is too much for him to stay there alone, so he should go home by himself.
Hearing this, Xia You was speechless and choked.
Even if you think about it with your knees, you know that Yingli Lili's topic of conversation must be to hack him.
But forget it, anyway, he is tired enough to accompany the girls to go shopping and carry his bags today, so it's not bad to go home and sleep like this.
However, just as everyone was making a decision, an unexpected guest appeared......
- Machida Enko.
Machida editor came to Kasumigaoka Shiyu, saying that there was something temporary to discuss with her, who was the author. And Kasumigaoka Shiyu didn't refuse, nodded and said yes, so the two left.
Seeing this, although everyone had some regrets, it was hard to say anything, after all, this was a serious matter that could not be delayed.
After the two of them walked away, Sawamura Eiri couldn't help but stomp her feet, and said dissatisfiedly: "It's really unsociable, Kasumigaoka Shiyu!"
"Well, if there's something, there's nothing you can do. No, Machida's editors came to her in person, probably because of something very important, right?"
The black cat looked very indifferent, she lowered her head and pressed her mobile phone, and while sending an email to her family saying that she was staying out tonight, she answered casually.
Seeing this, even though Yingli Li is still very dissatisfied, it is not good to lose her temper.
In addition, if she talked about it any more, wouldn't it seem that she was very rare for Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu to come over, so she decided to put it aside and find a new topic.
"By the way, before we go to my house again, should we go to the nearby supermarket and buy some beer?"
"Beer?"
When Mahime heard this, she immediately became a little interested. As a good girl in the eyes of her parents, she has only drunk wine a few times, and as for beer, she has never tasted what it tastes like.
Ayase stuck out her tongue and said, "Beer is not good at all! I used to drink my mother's beer secretly, it was spicy and bitter, and the taste was very choking!"
"Haha, that's what people who drink beer for the first time probably think, right?"
Rita chuckled, and the movement of her lips covered lightly looked coquettish and elegant. Then she thought about it and suggested:
"Then let's buy some fruit cocktails in addition to beer? In this way, those who can drink beer drink beer, and those who can't drink drink cocktails. β
"Ah, that's good!"
The women had no objections, so Ying Lili, as the host, clapped, "Well, then it's decided!"
Seeing that the girls were discussing the wine with great interest, Xia You was embarrassed, "Hey, hey, are you really okay? Don't overdo it." β
"As long as Xia Jun is not here, it's no problem. β
Rita said half-jokingly.
Xia Youden was dumbfounded.
Well, it's true, even if you're drunk, but as long as the girls stay at home, it's fine, but if he's there, it's hard to say.
β¦β¦ Thinking about it, if Ayase, Megumi, and Mahime were all drunk, Xia Yu was really not sure that he would not take the opportunity to take advantage of it.
Thinking about it, Xia You had nothing to say, so he could only wave his hand, "Okay, you can decide for yourself, I believe you are also measured." β
"Brother, remember to stay safe on the way back, and send me an email when you get home. β
Ayase admonished. In fact, she really wanted to go back with Xia You, but since everyone decided to stay overnight, she should not be an exception, so as not to ruin everyone's interest.
"Okay, I got it. β
Xia You nodded casually. Then he also told Mahime not to drink too much, and if she wanted to drink, she could only drink fruit cocktails, which would cause less harm to her body.
Speaking of which, as a qualified pianist, the first thing to do is to not drink at all, so as not to affect the dexterity of the fingers.
However, since Mahime does not plan to go in the direction of being a pianist, but plans to become a doctor in the future, it is not a problem to drink a few glasses of alcohol.
Megumi Kato, who was on the side, didn't say anything. She looked at Xia You, and then at the direction in which Kasumigaoka Shiyu had left, with a thoughtful look.
"By the way, Kasumigaoka Shiyu shouldn't be trying to do something bad, right?"
Ying Lili suddenly became alert.
Is it true that she is a golden retriever? Sometimes, her instincts are as sharp as those of a beagle.
Hearing this, Megumi Kato, who had been thinking about it before, smiled and said, "No, since even Miss Machida came to her, there must be something serious." β
ββ¦β¦ Well, that's what I'm talking about, I guess I'm thinking too much. β
Although there are still some people who can't let go, since even Megumi, who has always been sharper than anyone else and black-hearted, said so, then Ying Lili didn't delve much into it.
"Bye-bye. β
At the intersection, Xia You waved goodbye to the women, and only after seeing them go away did he turn around and leave.
Walking on the road, he suddenly remembered something, and took out a book from his shopping bag - this was bought and given to him by Senior Sister Shiyu when he happened to pass by a bookstore in the morning.
"Huh?"
However, when he took out the book, Xia You found that there was also a note posted on it, and he couldn't help but show curiosity on his face, so he picked it up and took a look.
I saw that it was written:
"Dedicate my favorite story to you. β
Since the plot of the story is very tragic, please be mentally prepared before reading. β
After reading the handwriting on the note, Xia You couldn't cry or laugh - giving him a book as a gift, which is very in line with the style of Shiyu's literary girl, but the plot of this book is very tragic, and she even has to be mentally prepared before reading, which is also very in line with her dark and withdrawn character.
But since this was given by Kasumigaoka Shiyu, and she also said that this was her favorite story, Xia You naturally couldn't help but be interested and prepared to go home and study it well.
But at this moment.
Suddenly, he received a phone call.
"-Huh?"
β
(There will be a change later)
