The tests of the cultural classes of the idols of the past generations are all similar, nothing more than a test of common sense and the basic elements needed to become idols, and perhaps it can be called difficult, and there is only that large amount of knowledge about the "predecessor group".

The experience of the test was not very good for Yuno Suzuki, who had always hated most things related to scores, and the exam was considered to be at the top of the list.

"Yuno, how's it going?"

"Well, it's so-so."

Endo Sakura looked at Yuno Suzuki, who was a little depressed, and smiled knowingly, like Yuno Suzuki, she was not very interested in exams, and she also belonged to the category of "scum".

But today's question is relatively simple, and she has answered them all, so she is in a good mood now.

The time for the reel is 10:20 in the morning, and the end of the test does not mean that the members can rest, they need to grab the tail of the morning light while they still have enough time to go to vocal lessons.

Now the members are familiar with going to be a vocal teacher.

The footsteps of the girls sounded in the corridor, and Haruka He followed behind the team, chatting with Yuzu Shibata next to her, while glancing ahead from time to time.

Yuno Suzuki's figure is very long, and even in the fourth phase of the long body group, her height is still outstanding.

So much so that He Xi Haruka could see the back of her head from a distance.

The long ponytail dangling He Xi Yaoxiang was itching in her heart.

“kakki？”

"Ah, sorry, I'm a little distracted."

……

Ikeko Shimada is a teacher with a strong style, and this trait is reflected in many ways, such as - she is never late.

But today is an exception.

The members of the vocal classroom waited until after 10:35, and did not wait for Ikeko Shimada to appear.

At this time, there was already a whisper of discussion in the classroom, and if it weren't for the sternness that Shimada Ikeko had left on the members in the past, I am afraid that they would be much louder talking now.

And when the door was suddenly pushed open, the noise magically stopped and disappeared.

However, after the discussion dissipated, a series of exclamations immediately resounded in the classroom.

"Ah!!h

The figure who pushed the door in was the one who pushed the door in, and she wasn't the Shimada Ikeko that the members had expected, but another figure they would never have guessed.

It was Ikuta Erika who came in.

"Mr. Shimada can't come today because of something, so ......," Erika Ikuta paused, "I'll substitute for you today." ”

The exclamation immediately turned into cheers.

Yuno Suzuki turned her head sideways, looking at Sakura Endo next to her in surprise, her excitement value was obviously exceeding the standard, she turned around, and found that Miyu Matsuo behind her was also looking excited.

The other members behaved similarly.

The heat of the scene made Ikuta Erika raise her eyebrows, in fact, among the members of Nogizaka, she was not at all a person with plenty of free time.

Most of the time, she has to be busy with the trip outside of Nogizaka, and it is almost impossible to run over and make a cameo appearance as a teacher like this in normal times, but today's situation is just a coincidence, and the timing of Shimada Ikeko's question is just right, or rather, the group of girls in front of her are really lucky.

Before she came, she was worried that she wouldn't be able to do well, after all, being a teacher for juniors was also a new experience for Ikuta Erika, but judging from the beginning, it seemed that the situation was okay.

"Everyone, please advise~" Ikuta Erika bowed slightly.

Flattered, the members hurriedly got up and saluted back, and they bowed much harder than Ikuta Erika.

After the touching drama of the seniors meeting each other, it is still an old-fashioned class plot.

Although Ikeko Shimada didn't come, she still did her best to prepare everything needed for Ikuta Erika to substitute teach, and her style has always been like this.

Therefore, as long as Ikuta Erika follows the process prepared by Ikeko Shimada, she can easily complete this class, after all, there is only an hour and a half left in this class.

The content of the teaching is also very simple, as usual, Erika Ikuta first arranges for the members to practice their voices, and then she uses herself as an example to give voice demonstrations to the members to standardize their pronunciation habits.

According to Ikuta's vision, after these two links, the lesson is almost over, and if she has time, she may use the piano in the classroom, or, by the way......

Ikuta Erika saw Yuno Suzuki in practice peeking at her again, she was not as serious as Shimada Ikeko, so she gave Yuno Suzuki a smile, which was not only playful, but also a little bright and full of charm.

"Now, Saku, Ikuta-senpai seems to be smiling at me."

"Oh, that's a smile on me!"

The morning passed quietly in practice.

Maybe it's Erika Ikuta on the side, and the members are in a much better state and momentum today than usual, so much so that when she announced that she was about to end class, the members showed a sudden look.

And then I started to give up.

They also probably expected that there would not be many substitute teaching experiences, and no one knew when the next time Ikuta Erika would come.

Everyone loves Erika Ikuta without a shelf.

"But, there's still a little time before class—" Erika Ikuta smiled suddenly, and she said as she walked to the piano in the corner, "I can probably play a song, do you want to listen to it?" ”

"Yes!" The voice that responded to her was neat.

Ikuta Erika smiled even more happily, she closed her eyes, and her fingers touched the keys.

There were many tunes that could be played, and after a little thought, she chose one of them.

The moment the melodious sound of the piano ripples through the room like a wave, Yuno Suzuki knows which song it is, and she can even hum softly along with the sound of the piano, even though the singing is so small that only a few members around her can barely hear it.

It's called "Around the Curtains".

At the end of the song, Sayaka Kakehashi was the first to applaud, she turned her head sideways, and then looked at Yuno Suzuki on her left.

"Yuno sings beautifully."

"Well, it's really out of class now." Ikuta Erika's hand left the keys, but her body did not leave the chair, she reached out and beckoned to the members, "Yuno, you come here." ”

Her affectionate tone provoked the members to cast a surprised look at Yuno Suzuki.

Yuno Suzuki looked left and right, and finally walked over with some unknown steps.

"Again... See you again, senior. She walked up to Erika Ikuta and said hello belatedly.

"It's a lot of hard work, Yuno just now." Ikuta Erika reached out and broke Yuno Suzuki's intertwined hands, then gently pulled them, and motioned for the other party to sit down with her eyes.

Yuno Suzuki blinked in confusion.

Erika Ikuta patted the empty part of the chair.

At this time, Suzuki Yuno understood, she hesitated, and finally sat down under the encouraging gaze of Ikuta Erika.

After she sat down, Ikuta Erika spoke softly.

"Shimada-sensei told me about you, she told Yuno the instrument you want to learn, have you decided?"

"Also... Not. ”

"What do you think of the piano?"

"Huh... Huh? ”

Yuno Suzuki snorted, she looked away unnaturally, and Ikuta's bright eyes full of expectations made her a little uncomfortable.

Ikuta Erika reached out and twisted Yuno Suzuki's head back, she looked at the pair of eyes, and through the small crystalline pupils, she saw the uneasiness in the faint light.

"Shall you give it a try?" She suddenly proposed, and although it was a proposal, the tone was somewhat commanding.

"Try it?" Yuno Suzuki didn't react.

"Come, give it to me." Erika Ikuta's voice is soft.

Despite her confusion, Yuno Suzuki held out her hand obediently, and then she felt her palm wrapped in another palm.

Then she began to know what it was like for her fingers to touch the keys.

Smooth, icy and seemingly thin, yet feeling full of weight.

And then the next thing, the members who were silently observing in the rear could also know, although they couldn't hear the conversation between the two, but now, they did see Ikuta Erika holding Suzuki Yuno's hand, and heard-

The slow, incoherent sound of the piano.

It's also called "Around the Curtains".

"How?"

"Very... Not bad. ”

Actually, Yuno Suzuki wanted to say that it was wonderful, but she forgot how to say it for a while, and the experience just now was a novel adventure for her, and the touch was probably similar to the strawberry shaved ice she could eat in the summer.

"So, is it decided now?" Erika Ikuta asked again.

"But can I?" Yuno Suzuki certainly understood what Ikuta Erika meant, she seemed to be asking the other party, but in fact she was asking herself.

Ikuta Erika looked at Yuno Suzuki, who was in a dilemma, and inexplicably remembered the previous Nishino Nanase, but she herself was thinking about Nishino Nanase from the beginning, or rather, thinking about what Nishino Nanase said to her before she came.

So, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Yuno Suzuki looked up, she didn't understand why Ikuta Erika was smiling.

"I can teach you, of course, I'm usually very busy, so under normal circumstances, I still have to come to Shimada-sensei." Ikuta Erika said suddenly.

"How can you trouble the seniors......"

"You just have to answer yes, or don't want to, okay?"

Erika Ikuta interrupts Yuno Suzuki.

"Yes." Yuno Suzuki's voice was a little pitiful with the small one.

"I can't hear it at all."

"Yuno wants to learn, senior!"

After Yuno Suzuki shouted loudly, she looked at Erika Ikuta with apprehension, she didn't hear Erika Ikuta's answer, but she saw her senior stretching out her hand.

The touch from the top of her head made her understand that it was Ikuta Erika touching her head, but she didn't understand why everyone always liked to touch her head.

The members are, and so are the seniors.

Then, she saw Erika Ikuta speak.

"Now, call the teacher."
