Anime Crossover Band, Rock Girl Won't Let Me Go

Chapter 305 End the band, win.

The flot was already packed with people.

The atmosphere was quite lively, with energetic music and conversations mingling together.

Ichiri, Nijika, and Kita curiously observed their surroundings and the several bands that seemed to be rivals.

Bai Qiu and Yamada Ryo, having visited this place several times before, did not experience any significant emotional fluctuations.

Anjing glanced at Hongxia beside her, who was eager to try but also a little apprehensive.

Bai Qiu was too embarrassed to tell Hong Xia.

He had previously seen that Nijigasaki's symptoms of hallucinating Suze had improved.

But those dazzling blond hairs, just like Chu Hua's, couldn't help but remind him of Chu Hua...

It's probably because I've been in too much contact with Chuhua these past few days.

Getting back to the main topic, Bai Qiu shook his head and began to analyze the current situation.

There are six bands performing here today, but only the top two will qualify for the festival.

The odds are 2 to 6, or one-third.

The bands that have made it to this stage are all exceptional; they are the best among their peers.

However, the End Band is no less formidable, and with two professional-level musicians, him and Boqi, they have a high probability of securing the next spot.

"Ah~ Xiao Hongxia, you guys... hiccup~ are here!"

Accompanied by the smell of alcohol and a subtle burp, Hiroi Kikuri, who was slightly drunk, greeted Bai Qiu and his group.

Holding a wine bottle that was indispensable to her, she barely opened her eyes, grinned sheepishly at Bai Qiu and the others, and said in a carefree manner:

"If you had told me in advance, I would have come to pick you up. After all, you are juniors I value!"

As he spoke, Hiroi placed his hand on Nijika's shoulder, seemingly wanting to use Nijika as a support to slightly prop up her swaying body.

"Huh? Hongxia, why are you avoiding me?"

Slowly peeking out from behind Bai Qiu, Hong Xia looked at Guang Jing with a slightly helpless smile on her face.

"Kikuri-nee, thank you for your kindness..."

"But the journey isn't actually that far, so I won't trouble you."

Even Ichi Nijika wouldn't want to smell of alcohol before the performance!

Moreover, looking at the drunken Hiroi, Nijika couldn't help but have doubts.

Will we be able to arrive safely if we ride in her car after the band ends?

Bai Qiu couldn't help but shake his head as well:

"Senior, don't drink and drive, and don't drive after drinking."

If they really wait for Kikusato Hiroi to pick them up, the band will probably be eliminated early.

I got a lecture from the younger generation...

Upon hearing this, Hiroi Kikuri awkwardly scratched her head, then changed the subject, smiling as she said:

"Haha, it feels like it's been a long time since I've seen everyone."

"Is that right?"

Hongxia blinked, somewhat puzzled.

Upon hearing Hiroi's words, Kita felt a sense of sympathy and subconsciously nodded in agreement.

However, she felt as if she hadn't seen Bai Qiu for a long time.

However, since they attend the same school, they should see each other often.

Why would she still have this misconception?

Kita Ikuyo frowned slightly, staring intently at Shiraaki, lost in deep thought.

Then her eyes lit up, and she clenched her fist and clapped her hands hard.

It must be because Bai Qiujun always spends time with Ai Yin and the others, and rarely takes the initiative to go to her class to find her!

Then she needs to take the initiative.

After chatting with the band for a while, Kikuri Hiroi had to leave first.

As the signature band of this live house, before the competition officially began.

The warm-up activity was naturally a song performed by Kikuri Hiroi's band, Sick Hack, for the guests.

Hiroi's band has three members.

Besides herself, the other two are drummer Shima Iwashita, who has black hair and gives off a very reliable vibe, and guitarist Eliza Shimizu, who has blonde hair and a figure far exceeding that of Nijika.

They were playing the band's first song, "The Ghost Is Alone."

After Sick Hack's warm-up act, it was the turn of the participating bands to take the stage one by one.

The closing band was the third to perform.

"Hello, everyone in the audience!"

"We are the closing band representing the stars in this competition!"

Kita stood confidently at the front of the stage, waving his hands and playfully winking at the audience below, before shouting loudly:

"Please enjoy our performance next."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ichiri, Kita, and Ryo, who were standing in the front row, turned around and looked at Shiraaki, who was standing in the back, and Nijika, who was sitting.

The five people's eyes met, and they exchanged smiles and encouraging glances.

Bai Qiu looked at Hong Xia, seemingly mouthing, "Let's begin!"

"Qiang Qiang!"

All that could be heard was Hongxia's drumstick striking the drumhead.

Kita's singing voice rang out at just the right moment, carrying his unique and distinctive melody.

Keyboard, guitar, bass—instruments with different timbres—are seamlessly integrated into one at this moment.

Today, the End Band is no longer the fledgling band it once was, where members performed independently on stage and lacked cohesion.

Instead, they became a mature band that could complement each other, with each member incorporating the other's essence.

……

The most nerve-wracking moment, the announcement of the rankings, only came after all six bands had finished performing.

Taking a deep breath, Bai Qiu and the others, like the other bands, held their breath and looked at the host on the judges' platform.

"Will we win?" Liang suddenly asked.

Bai Qiu: "I will win!"

Kita hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help interrupting:

"Um... Bai Qiujun and Liang-senpai, saying things like this at a time like this sounds like a death flag that's destined to lead to defeat."

"..."

At this moment, the referee, who was sitting in the very center, straightened up, stood up, and then smiled:

"First of all, thank you for your patience. Our referee team has selected the two best teams for today."

"I now declare—"

The bands that qualified for this music festival from the flot performance hall are End and SIDEROS. Let's congratulate both bands!

"Thank you also to all the bands who gave us such wonderful performances today."

As soon as he finished speaking, the chief referee clapped his hands, and thunderous applause immediately followed.

"We've advanced."

Bai Qiu also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they are very confident in their own abilities, their opponents are not to be underestimated.

In addition, the judges' preferences also greatly influence the scoring criteria.

And what if there's something fishy going on in the competition?

After all, you can't be sure about these things.

When Bai Qiu smiled and looked at Hong Xia and the others, she found that they seemed to be in a daze, and even Yamada Ryo's cool face showed obvious surprise.

"I've advanced!"

Among the girls, Pochi was the first to react.

Boqi looked at Bai Qiu and nodded vigorously, his face flushed with excitement: "Qiu, we are number one."

"Take a deep breath." Bai Qiu smiled.

"Um……!"

"I must...haven't misheard, right?"

Hongxia reached out and patted her soft cheeks, still somewhat incredulous.

"Qiu, could you please pinch me?"

However, when Hongxia tilted her head to look at Bai Qiu, she saw Kita excitedly pounce on Bai Qiu.

Perhaps due to excessive excitement, Kita subconsciously opened her arms and hugged Shiraaki, who was closest to her.

"Senior Hongxia, you heard right, we won! When we get to the music festival, we're definitely going to take lots of great photos!"

Kita Ikuyo's cheeks flushed slightly, and her tone was very excited.

Bai Qiu looked at Xi Duo with some surprise, but still said calmly, "I'll leave the publicity to Xi Duo."

Kita was probably just too happy to react like that.

"No problem, leave it to me!"

Kita happily narrowed his eyes.

Boqi and Hongxia's eyes widened slightly as they simultaneously thought...

Kita, so cunning!

Yamada Ryo's expression as he looked at Kita gradually became subtle.

Coming to her senses, Hongxia looked at Bai Qiu and asked somewhat anxiously:

"So Qiu, shouldn't you hurry up and head to Mygo?"

"Yes." Bai Qiu nodded, glancing at her watch. "It's time to set off."

He had already booked a car in advance, so he could leave immediately upon arrival at the door.

"Then you should set off quickly."

Hongxia gently nudged Bai Qiu and smiled tenderly:

"Everything's fine here now! Time's a bit tight, so let's not keep Aine and the others waiting."

"Okay, thank you, Hongxia."

Bai Qiu smiled.

Hongxia is always so gentle and genuinely cares about everyone.

That's why he's a Nijigasaki fan.

"Ugh!"

A sigh was heard.

The owner of the voice, Yamada Ryo, touched his chest and spoke to Bai Qiu in a sorrowful tone:

"So soon you're going to abandon us to see other women?"

Bai Qiu smiled helplessly and tried to chop Liang's head with a chop, but Liang nimbly dodged it.

……

Bai Qiu got into a taxi and headed to the live house where Mygo was located.

If the band successfully secured their spot at the music festival, then mygo will definitely be fine too.

He thought with some confidence.

Bai Qiu suddenly remembered something.

He had said things like he would lead the band to win first place at the music festival in front of both Hongxia and Lixi.

Then the problem is coming.

There can only be one first place winner, and there is only one prize of 100 million yen.

What should we do then?

Bai Qiu frowned and pondered for a while, but finally shook his head and decided to ignore it for the time being.

Let the future worry about it.
