"One cup of matcha strawberry, four cups of hot cocoa, thank you."

"..." The clerk was a little dull.

"What's wrong?" Tianhai Jiuliuli asked.

"Ah? Hug, I'm sorry, I'm very sorry. I was distracted just now," the young boy behind the console was very shy, blushing and bowing his head to apologize again and again, "Can the guest please tell me his needs again...?"

”

"One cup of matcha strawberry, four cups of hot cocoa."

The clerk touched the screen of the console a little stiffly, keeping his face with a blushing face and lowered his head in front of Tianhai Jiululi, "Confirm, one cup of matcha strawberry, four cups of hot cocoa, right...?"

"Yes."

"...Tomorrow is Christmas, and all drinks in our store are currently on sale at 30% off, so the total is 2,450 yen."

Tianhai Jiuliuli took out a ten thousand yen note from the satchel on his waist and handed it to the clerk with his slender hand.

The clerk took it with both hands, gave change, and bowed his head to express his apology in the polite manner of the service industry:

"Okay, please wait here for a moment."

Tianhai Jiuliuli waited in the store for about ten minutes. During this period, while the clerk was preparing milk tea, she kept carefully observing her movements out of the corner of her eye, and she saw them all.

"...Guest, I've been waiting for your milk tea for a long time."

"Thank you."

Tianhai Jiuliuli took it politely, passed by a new customer who had just entered the store with some snowflakes on his down jacket, and left the milk tea shop.

The young clerk watched her leave at the counter. It wasn't until the smooth, flaxen hair completely disappeared in the crowd that he withdrew his gaze with a hint of loneliness.

"...What do you think, this is the last time, right?"

He murmured, and couldn't help but look at the place where the back disappeared. All he could see were passers-by walking outside the store.

......

Christmas trees all over the street, red decorations everywhere, discount billboards marked with eye-catching fonts, passers-by wearing red hats, the Christmas song "Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells"...<

/p>

Facing the upcoming Christmas, these elements have already fallen in the snow and filled the entire commercial street.

"It will snow tomorrow too, right? White Christmas!"

"Hmm... Well, I should be able to do this."

"Then, we agreed, you want to take me out to play."

"Where do you want to go?"

"Amusement park! Go see the ice withers! Go ride the Ferris wheel! Go ride the merry-go-round!"

"Really, why are you still like a child, playing this every year?"

"Huh... aren't you the same? Are you cold or not? Do you want me to hold you?"

"Well...promise!"

"Hehe..."

The conversation between the lovers at the intersection before the intersection made Tianhai Jiuliuli, who was waiting at the traffic light, look up at the snow and feel a trace of longing for it.

It’s been almost a week since he formed the band to practice their instruments, right? It’s been two days since the final exam. I wonder if he can take the initiative to invite himself out tomorrow?

It's obviously a romantic relationship, but he seems to rarely invite me to go out with him...

Of course I know that he has been busy learning guitar recently and laying a good foundation for bass. I am also very happy to learn rock related knowledge with him...

But what I want most is to be alone with him, to listen to him say nice things to me, to hold his arms and lean on his shoulders.

If...if you suddenly want to kiss...it's not impossible, just say a few words in your ear.

I... will probably agree...

Tianhai Jiuliuli crossed the intersection and walked on the street, blushing, thinking about these things in his mind, but his heart felt empty for some reason.

She felt that her brother did not like her as much as he did when he first confessed to her.

"Why?"

Probably because he has not completely forgiven himself yet - Tianhai Jiuliuli thought about it and could only blame himself for the mistake.

But she was not entirely convinced by this answer, because judging from his interactions with her during this period, he did not have any sense of distance from her because of past events. On the contrary, he was very proactive. When they were in a world together,

He always pulls me into his arms for a hug.

Tianhai Jiuliuli likes that feeling very much.

Compared to Qi Mingyue's state of never being able to get close, I don't know how much better I am, right?

Well, you shouldn’t feel negative and decadent!

Although he still has an absolute advantage against Qi Mingyue, in front of his twin sister, a twin sister whose face is exactly the same as his own, he still has to take the initiative and let his brother understand who is the one who wants to rely on and like him the most.

!

Tianhai Jiuliuli encouraged herself in her heart, carrying the milk tea she bought, crossing the street and entering an office building.

*

On the sixth floor, a room like a warehouse.

Putting aside the soundproof wall decorated in black style, apart from a bunch of messy wires and a bunch of brackets that don't know what to put, there are only a series of musical instruments left.

Tianhai Qimingyue sat expressionlessly in front of a bunch of musical instruments that made up the drum set, including bass drum, snare drum, toms, hi-hats, ride cymbals, and used simple 8 beats to get familiar with this instrument.<

/p>

She is very focused and serious, and she is meticulous about learning this instrument.

Kanbaru Raku is holding the guitar and is helping Kanbaru Suzu, who is also holding the guitar, to correct how to play the F major chord so that it runs smoothly.

Tianhai Zhixue sat quietly by the floor-to-ceiling window, eating bread and staring blankly into the distance where the world seemed to not exist.

The door to the room opened.

Kagura Raku saw Tianhai Jiu Liuli coming in from the door.

He smiled at her, put down his guitar, walked over and said a few words of care, took the milk tea she bought from her hand, and then distributed it to everyone one by one.

"Put it aside." Tianhai Qimingyue seems to be still familiar with the drum set.

"Oh, thank you." Although Kanbaru Suzu was very happy to drink milk tea, because it was bought by Tianhai Jiuli, she was a little confused whether she should say thank you to her.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"..." Tianhai Zhixue said nothing.

A band with absolutely no tacit understanding!

After practicing for so long, Kambara, who is well aware of the interpersonal relationships in the band, feels desolate in her heart.

"How is my brother's guitar practice going?" Tianhai Jiuliuli asked.

Kanbaru held his elbows and recalled with his eyes upward: "It's... OK, at least I've regained my previous level. I don't even remember how many years I haven't played."

"Six years," the short-haired Kamihara Suzuki, who was sitting on a small stool, squeezed milk tea in her hands and interrupted, and then continued, "I remember, brother, your guitar was originally picked up from the garbage dump. It was very old.

I studied by myself for a period of time, and then I broke down and stopped playing the guitar."

"I played pretty well back then." Kanbaru Suzu took a sip of milk tea and quickly added.

"Brother, why didn't you continue before?"

Kambara reluctantly explained: "Guitars were expensive, and I couldn't afford to buy them at that time. My life was much better since I was in junior high school, but later on I forgot about it because I was studying all the time and preparing for the entrance examination of Meide Junior High School."

Although Tianhai Jiuliuli understood what he said, it was still difficult to empathize with his experience of "having no money."

*

Generally speaking, everyone in today’s runto has a musical foundation.

Needless to say, Tianhai Jiuliuli and Tianhai Qimingyue.

The eldest lady in the boudoir never knew the music theory she had learned for many years since she was a child.

Jiuliuli is also a genius in classical piano, capable of holding independent concerts.

At their level, they only need to transfer years of music theory to different instruments, and the rest is just practice.

I don’t know if I should say that they are musical geniuses?

After seeing the two of them playing a rhythm or a song in a decent manner after just a few days of exposure to complicated instruments such as electronic keyboards and drums, Kambara's heart almost dropped.

No wonder they are called geniuses, they are really geniuses who can learn everything quickly.

If he hadn't had the foundation before and the music theory knowledge he learned when learning piano, he wouldn't be able to catch up with them in a rocket.

Although Ah Ling is a lazy person, she is not slow at learning, she is just lazy.

"Ahem, now that we've drank the milk tea, let's try playing together and find out how we feel."
