Clang!Bang!
Accompanied by a dull sound. Fireworks slowly floated down from the sky. It was Nijika who fired the salute prepared in advance.
"Wow!!" Hotaru, Hitori, and Ryo exclaimed in surprise, then clapped their hands.
"I'll help clean up later." Nijika pointed to the floor. The three shook their heads desperately and stepped back.
"You guys have to be so synchronized!" Nijika said unhappily.
Hotaru raised her hand: "I'll help clean up."
Nijika smiled: "Hotaru-kun is still the most reliable."
"Well, next is our band's first group meeting!"
...
Put down the instruments. Four people sat around a table. There were snacks and drinks on the table.
Ryo had already started eating.
"Too close!"
Seika leaned against the door, biting hard on the straw of the drink cabinet.
PA-san looked inside and saw Hotaru sitting next to Nijika.
"Ah, if you care so much, just come in with us!" She covered her mouth and laughed.
"Huh? I'm not interested!"
"Giggle…!"
…
"Ahem! First topic, we need to choose a captain."
Nijika gestured with her fingers and then looked at the other three.
And Hotaru, Hitori, Ryo, The three of them stared at Nijika.
"…"
"Huh…?"
"What does this mean?"
"You want me to be the captain?"
Nijika pointed at herself in confusion.
"Uh-huh!"
Hotaru and the other two nodded in unison.
Ryo said: "I leave it to you, Nijika."
Hotaru: "I think so too."
Hitori followed up: "Me, me too!"
"Ah? Don't you want to discuss this again?"
Nijika asked.
Hotaru and the other two shook their heads again.
Nijika was stunned.
Then... Nijika looked at Ryo, she was unreliable!
Hitori, emmmm... it doesn't seem to work either.
Finally, she looked at Hotaru.
"What about Hotaru-kun? Doesn't Hotaru-kun want to be the captain?"
Hotaru smiled and said, "I'm not very good at it," "In my heart, Nijika, you are the most suitable one."
The responsibility of a band leader is great. Not only do you have to organize and manage the band well. You also need to pay attention to the status of each band member.
And Nijika, so gentle, kind, careful, thoughtful, and lovely... She is definitely the right person for this position.
Other people are more or less unreliable. Although Hotaru felt that there was nothing unreliable about her at the moment. But as expected, Nijika will be the captain.
"I believe you, Nijika."
Hotaru encouraged.
"We believe in you, too."
Ryo and Hitori repeated.
"I see..."
Nijika blushed, a rare occurrence.
"Then... leave it to me!"
Nijika patted her chest.
"Although it's my first time as captain." "But I'll try my best." "If there's anything I didn't do well, please tell me at any time!"
Hotaru, Ryo, and Hitori applauded.
…
"Tsk!"
It seemed as if an inappropriate sound was heard.
Seika let go of the straw, which was already covered with teeth marks.
"You really know how to make girls happy!"
However, Nijika became the captain. Seika was still very satisfied, as she was also the captain back then.
PA-san: "Hehehe…"
...
"Then comes the second topic..."
"Uh-huh!"
Hotaru and the other two looked at Nijika expectantly.
"We need to come up with a band name."
Nijika said happily.
The band name is the band's face. Last night, she made sufficient preparations in this regard. She consulted a lot of information.
For example, we must avoid naming patterns that combine place names with people's names.
But to be honest. No one would have such a weird taste in naming.
Nijika looked at everyone expectantly. Generally speaking, everyone will have many different ideas at this stage.
Ryo put down the food and said first, "End the band."
Nijika: "Bond?" Hitori: "Bundle?"
Ryo shook her head.
Hotaru explained, "It means unity."
"Puff!"
Ryo burst out.
"Oops!"
"Ryo, what are you doing?"
"It all sprayed on Hitori's face."
Nijika hurriedly took out a tissue to help Hitori wipe it. It has been taken care of.
"Sorry, Hitori-chan." "I didn't mean to do that." "It's just hilarious."
Ryo said without any apology. Then she looked at Hotaru with admiration.
Back to the band name.
"Unity?"
Nijika was stunned for a moment, then she understood. Ryo is acting weird again.
"Don't use such puns!"
"Right? Hotaru-kun, Hitori-chan."
"I quite like it."
Hotaru said truthfully.
Ryo gave a thumbs up in satisfaction.
"Ah, yes!"
Even though Hitori felt it was strange, she was very happy to have a band. How dare I ask for a name!
"Ah? You guys..."
Nijika looked at the three people in surprise. Isn't it strange that she can't do it?
"Next topic."
Ryo said calmly, as if she wanted to decide on the name quickly.
The three of them looked at Nijika.
"Let's discuss this further, please."
Nijika pleaded.
"…"
There was a silence.
Hotaru had no choice but to say, "It seems... I can't think of anything else..."
"It seems so…"
Nijika couldn't think of a good name either. The ahoge on top of her head also fell down.
Do you really want to end the band? This is too hasty.
Nijika originally planned to discuss the band name for a long time! Clearly looking at the posts, other bands are arguing over this topic. When it came to them, they made the decision so quickly.
And... why does everyone just accept this name? Am I not the captain?! Why was I sidelined as soon as I became captain?
Wait, did the three of them discuss this in advance? The captain made a quick decision. The band name came up so quickly too.
Nijika couldn't help but doubt in her heart. Then, Nijika shook her head to clear away the strange thoughts.
"Then we'll temporarily call it the Ending Band." "It's tentative!"
Nijika made up her mind to wait for the lead singer to be found. This name must be overturned.
"Puff!"
Everyone looked towards the source of the laughter. It was Seika, covering her mouth to stifle laughter.
End of the band? What a joke. It seems that it is better to end it as soon as possible. She wanted to get this man away from Nijika.
Seeing them looking at her, Seika quickly suppressed her smile.
"Humph, I'm not looking at you."
Seika crossed her arms and said proudly.
Nijika explained, "My sister is like this."
…
"The third topic is that we are still short of a lead singer."
Nijika said seriously.
Without someone singing, the band wouldn't be a good one. You can't just play the same as last time every time.
Nijika took out a photo embarrassedly.
"Actually, if possible, I'd like to get the previous lead singer back."
"Puff!" x2
Hotaru and Ryo couldn't help laughing. Because what Nijika took out was the posthumous photo of Kita that Ryo took last time.
"There are really no other photos of this one!"
Nijika explained helplessly.
"Stop laughing..."
Woohoo, Nijika felt very sorry for Kita.
"This photo…"
I didn't pay attention last time. But this time the photo was placed in front of me. Although it is a black and white photo.
But Hitori discovered that the person in front of her was the girl with red hair and very conspicuous in school. It's a super popular one! A very popular character in school.
Hitori often saw her walking in groups with many girls from different classes. It was Hitori, a character she never dared to imagine becoming in her dreams.
I didn't expect that she would be ahead of me even in things like forming a band. Woo, I'm so unwilling...
"What's wrong? Do you know each other?"
"Ah, yes, from our school."
"Oh!"
A light ignited in Nijika's eyes.
"Then could you please ask Hitori to contact Kita?" "I can't get in touch with her at all." "I'm worried she might have had an accident."
"No, there was no accident."
Thinking of this black and white photo, Nijika quickly changed her words and covered her mouth.
"This…this…"
Hitori was so terrified that she couldn't speak. If she gets close to this kind of character, she will be burned to ashes in an instant. Ah, she was melting just thinking about it.
"Ah! Hitori, don't force it!"
Nijika was startled, then looked at Hotaru for help. They are all from the same school. If Hitori doesn't work, I'll have to trouble Hotaru.
Hotaru patted her chest and promised, "No problem, leave it to me and Hitori."
Hitori gave her a grateful look.
Nijika smiled happily. As expected, Hotaru-kun was the most reliable member of this band!
"By the way, is there anyone who can temporarily serve as the lead singer until a lead singer is found?"
Hitori kept shaking her head.
"If I were the lead singer, the band would become my own stage."
"Have you picked up your bass?"
Ryo: "…"
Nijika looked at Hotaru, who was the most reliable.
Hotaru: "We are a girl band, so of course we need girls to sing."
"It's not a girl band!"
It's all my sister's fault. Nijika looked towards the door, but Seika was gone.
It seems that before finding a lead singer, it is better to just play the instruments purely first.
