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

Chapter 50 Guitar or Bass?

After school.

Bai Qiu, Goto Ichiri, and Kita Ikuyo walked on their way to the stars.

Bai Qiu, carrying her violin case, seemed lost in thought.

Yili carried a guitar bag, his eyes darting around.

Kita, carrying what she thought was a guitar case, frowned deeply.

Although I have made up my mind to properly apologize to Nijika-senpai.

But Kita still wondered if she could stay as the lead singer.

Not to mention that he injured all ten fingers while learning guitar, and in the end all he could make was make the "guitar" emit a low "humming" sound.

This made Kita Ikuyo realize that she probably didn't have much talent for musical instruments, and that her singing was only at the level of singing in karaoke.

The main problem is that her initial motives for joining the Rainbow Summer Band were impure.

"By the way, Kita, why did you join Nijika's band back then?"

Bai Qiu suddenly asked.

If Ryo was so engrossed in his own light novel, why did Kita join Nijigasaki's band first?

He was quite curious about that.

Kita paused, not expecting to be asked that question.

"Actually...it's because of Senior Ryo..."

Kita forced a smile and said, quite embarrassed.

As for Bai Qiu and Goto, who helped her pass on the message and helped her make up her mind to apologize to Hongxia.

Good boy Kita had no intention of hiding it.

The key point is that Kita Ikuyo has never hidden her admiration for Yamada Ryo!

"But Liang hadn't joined the band yet back then, had he?"

Bai Qiu looked at Xi Duo with a puzzled expression.

"Yes."

Kita nodded awkwardly, then said,

"I became interested in musical instruments after watching Liang's roadshow."

"However, Liang left the band later, but she still works part-time at Fanxing."

"I heard that Senior Hongxia is going to form a band and is planning to invite Senior Liang."

"So... I'll ask Nijika-senpai for help."

Kita's eyes lit up with excitement as he recalled the events of that time.

This way, I can not only meet Ryo-senpai whom I admire every day, but I might even have the chance to be in the same band!

Bai Qiu smiled and nodded. Xi Duo's move was a roundabout way to achieve his goal!

"But I didn't expect my guitar talent to be so bad. Even with hard practice, I still can't play the sounds in the videos."

Kita looked at his ten once soft and tender fingers and said, feeling both dejected and pained.

“You definitely can’t perform on stage like this.”

Bai Qiu glanced at Xi Duo's guitar bag and, barely suppressing a smile, hinted at something.

"Could it be a problem with the instrument?"

Suddenly, Bai Qiu's eyes lit up.

He could buy Kita's "guitar" first.

Because rather than letting Yamada Ryo buy it and then resell it later, Ryo regularly sells off instruments she doesn't need to get the money to buy new ones.

It would be better to buy it myself and keep it as a memento of Xi Duo's dark history, and at least earn some of Ms. Gui Lai Qu Xi's notes.

"The problem is with the instrument?"

Kita paused for a moment, then smiled and said,

"No way! This is a new purchase because I borrowed two years' worth of allowance and New Year's money from my dad."

"The sound that popped up is wrong, it must be my problem, boohoo!"

"What's that sound?"

Bai Qiu asked.

"A very low humming sound."

Kita answered immediately.

She wished someone knowledgeable about musical instruments could answer her questions, but unfortunately, no one around her understood.

Bai Qiu finally couldn't suppress her laughter.

In fact, before redeeming the [Basic Music Theory Knowledge], he was practically a complete novice.

However, I can still distinguish between the guitar and bass sounds.

Of course, I can also understand sheet music.

"what happened?"

Kita asked, puzzled.

Without waiting for Bai Qiu to speak,

Ichiri said hesitantly, "That sounds like a bass."

"Kita, you bought a bass."

Bai Qiu repeated.

"No way!"

Kita smiled and waved confidently.

"I'm not so bad that I can't tell the difference between a guitar and a bass."

As she spoke, Kita Ikuyo stopped and opened the guitar bag she was carrying right there in the street.

He then showed the two his brown "electric guitar".

"See? The guitar I bought has six strings, but isn't a bass only four strings?"

Kita said.

“Bass can also have six strings; this is a multi-string bass.”

Bai Qiu explained, and to make it more convincing, he looked at Goto Ichiri again.

"You agree, right, one li?"

“This isn’t a guitar, and…” Ichiri observed carefully before saying seriously, “and it’s a left-hand bass.”

Left-hand bass?

Hearing what Ichiri said, Bai Qiu took another serious look at Kita's "guitar".

In this case,

He seemed to understand why Kita's ten fingers were injured.

Generally, electric guitar players press the strings with their left hand and pluck them with a pick in their right hand.

Therefore, the fingers on the right hand are generally not injured or develop calluses.

"Eh?"

Kita seemed somewhat lost, his gaze wandering aimlessly.

She glanced at the two of them, then looked at her "electric guitar" again, and then looked at the two of them again.

Bai Qiu and Yi Li nodded affirmatively.

"Oh no, this is..."

The rest of the sentence wasn't finished...

Kita's eyes had lost their luster, and a grayish-white soul was spitting out of his mouth.

If Bai Qiu hadn't caught her in time, she would have fainted.

I looked through my bangs and wondered why I didn't seem to have been helped up when I fainted.

……

Fortunately,

Although the blow was heavy.

But compared to Pochi-chan, Kita Ikuyo recovered quite quickly.

Bai Qiu exclaimed, "No wonder it's called Yangjiao!"

However, Kita also looked gloomy.

Okay, now that he's even bought the wrong musical instruments, let alone becoming a lead singer.

Kita Ikuyo couldn't help but think pessimistically.

Seeing this, Bai Qiu comforted her.

"So, Kita, you are not without guitar talent."

"It's just that the direction of practice was wrong."

The mistake is quite outrageous.

"Yes, really..."

Kita forced a smile.

Kita's gloomy state seemed to have diminished his destructive power, giving Goto Ichiri the courage to speak.

"Yes, you can learn guitar with me."

Goto Ichiri surprisingly spoke up.

Bai Qiu looked at Yi Li in surprise; Yi Li actually had such courage.

"Eh? Really?"

A glimmer of light returned to Kita's eyes.

Bai Qiu also praised, "Yili's guitar skills are amazing!"

The exaggerated tone immediately made Goto Ichiri feel elated.

"No, there aren't any!"

Ichiri scratched the back of his head with one hand, his smile widening, "Hehehehe..."

however,

Kita's eyes quickly dimmed again.

"But I can't afford a guitar anymore."

Bai Qiu promptly asked, "If possible, could you sell me the bass?"

"Eh??"

Kita was surprised, delighted, and puzzled, and looked up at Shirai.

Goto Ichiri also looked at him strangely. Wasn't Bai Qiujun a keyboardist?

Bai Qiu thought for a moment and then began to explain.

"Actually, I'm quite interested in guitars and basses, and I'm planning to get one soon."

"And this is a rare left-handed bass! I'd really like to have it."

So, Kita should be willing to sell it to him now!

"really?"

Kita Ikuyo was skeptical.

"real."

Bai Qiu nodded firmly.

"If that's the case, Bai Qiujun, thank you so much!"

Kita was overjoyed and wept tears of emotion.

At the same time, I silently kept this kindness in my heart.

Next, the two discussed the issue of price.

They started arguing.

Bai Qiu wanted to buy it at the original price, since he wasn't short of money, and he also had a little ulterior motive—it was for the notes.

Kita insisted on a discount. In her eyes, Shiro had helped a lot, and the bass was already second-hand, so buying it at the original price would be a loss.

So the two of them discussed and discussed until they arrived at the entrance of Fanxing.

I listened to it the whole way.

Although she has been trying to minimize her presence and hope to be ignored.

But now, I feel like I'm superfluous.

Who understands this feeling?
