Does gravity make me stronger?

Page 115

Kaguya Shinomiya looked completely bewildered.

"what happens?"

Kaguya Shinomiya stepped aside, maintaining a distance of several meters from Akari Takamatsu.

She knew that band members often did unconventional things, but she had never heard of any band rushing down to the audience and engaging in a passionate argument with them before the performance even started.

Or is this the spirit of rock and roll?

"Hayasaka, could you please explain?"

Explanation?

I'm going straight to Wuhu!

While Kaguya Shinomiya was still contemplating life, Ai Hayasaka was already prepared.

Here it comes! This is a signature act of the band – a live showdown!

Even if I didn't watch any of the other shows, just seeing this scene would be worth the ticket price!

Seeing that Hayasaka Ai did not answer, Shinomiya Kaguya raised her voice slightly.

"...Hayasaka, I'm asking you a question."

"I'm sorry, Miss, I was just too engrossed in it."

"It doesn't matter. They clearly seem to have a conflict, but they still have to go on stage to perform. This not only wastes the audience's time, but also makes them seem very unprofessional."

Unprofessional?

wrong!

This is the stage where fate cannot be predicted!

I've been waiting for this set of teeth!

Despite her inner fervor, Hayasaka Ai maintained a poker face and explained, "Kaguya-sama, shipping musicians... no, musicians having disagreements on stage is also a characteristic of LiveHouses, you can't miss it."

"you sure?"

"Yes!"

Guided by Hayasaka Ai, Shinomiya Kaguya once again looked towards the center of the farce—

"You've finally arrived, Su Shi..."

“I…” Nagasaki Motoyo took a breath and said the lines she had already prepared, “I’m just here to see Shoko, not because I’m worried about you.”

She thought Gao Songdeng would scold her, and she could take this opportunity to apologize to Gao Songdeng and then return to the band.

but.

Takamatsu's next reaction, however, disrupted her plans.

"Yes, it's okay."

"Why aren't you angry at all?"

Hurry up and scold me, Deng. How can I come back if you don't scold me?

Nagasaki Motoyo understood that she was only thinking about her own selfish desires and had taken advantage of Takamatsu Akari's kind intentions.

If Gao Songdeng blames herself for this, her conscience will feel better. But if the other party doesn't blame her at all, how can she say what she has prepared?

That's incredibly shameless.

"Why should I be angry?" Gao Songdeng asked in return.

"...Didn't I already say that I only joined the band to take advantage of you guys?"

"It's okay to use them!"

Gao Songdeng shook his head and said calmly, "It doesn't matter if Su Shi doesn't like us or hates us, because we will accept everything about Su Shi."

Nagasaki Motoyo's mind went blank for a moment. She stared at Takamatsu Akari with her mouth slightly open in disbelief.

"lamp...!"

Takamatsu Akari's words were like a heavy hammer blow, instantly shattering Nagasaki Motoyo's defenses.

The lamp was so kind and innocent; in contrast, she, preoccupied with herself, was like a lump of mud, wishing she could disappear from the spot immediately.

In an instant, an overwhelming sense of guilt welled up inside me.

This left Motoyo Nagasaki, who was eager to return to the band, speechless.

"Someone like me..."

Nagasaki Motoyo's voice grew softer and softer until she fell silent, while Takamatsu Akari gently took Nagasaki Motoyo's hand.

"Su Shi is a very good person."

"No, someone like me doesn't deserve to be with you. Let me go."

"I will never let go, not in this lifetime!"

The emotion in Takamatsu Akari's tone startled Nagasaki Motoyo, and taking advantage of this opportunity, Takamatsu Akari forcefully pulled her onto the stage.

On the stage, Aine walked over and met Nagasaki Motoyo's gaze.

"Soyo, I'm sorry."

"Why should I say sorry? I should be the one saying sorry."

Just as she was about to say something, Aine put her finger to her lips and then asked Rakuna to hand her the bass.

"Give."

“I…” Nagasaki Motoyo bit her lip.

"Can the show begin?" Iji Tomoka asked from across the table, and Takamatsu Akari quickly gave an OK sign.

Nagasaki Motoyo looked around, then muttered to herself, "I just can't understand what you people are thinking."

"You're not the only one who doesn't understand."

Takamatsu gazed at the bewildered girl and softly murmured:

"I still don't understand?"

"Can't find the correct answer and the general definition??"

I've been trying to take advantage of you all, so why are you being so nice to me...?

As she played the music, Nagasaki Motoyo gradually began to sob.

At this moment, she was in a state of utter confusion. The band members' love for her and her guilt towards the band were mixed together, leaving her unable to find her way forward.

What should she do?

As if knowing the question in Nagasaki Motoyo's heart, Takamatsu Akari tenderly said, "Those words that can't be properly expressed?"

"Even so, what message do you still want to convey?"

"I am singing a hymn, singing it now, let it be conveyed!"

Can singing truly convey one's feelings?

Since that's the case, let's sing!

...

Below the stage, Kaguya Shinomiya listened intently to the performance.

To be honest, in terms of melody and arrangement alone, this song is actually very ordinary.

However, the five of them had an outrageous level of teamwork.

The guitar, bass, drums, and lead singer's voice are like a whole, without any sense of separation, forming a seamless whole.

Furthermore, for some reason, Kaguya Shinomiya's heart was pounding restlessly.

Because of the high-pressure education she received over a long period of time and the impact of her mother's death, Kaguya Shinomiya knew that although her abilities far surpassed those of ordinary people, her own emotions were much duller than those of others.

This is also why she prefers songs with rich emotions.

She hoped to awaken her emotions through songs, but without exception, all of them failed.

She could hear the emotions the composer poured into the Noh music, but she was more of an observer and couldn't truly feel those emotions.

But today.

At this moment.

A wealth of emotions, carried by the music, seeped into her being.

Anger, sadness, guilt, and gratitude...

Countless emotions surged within her. Having not experienced such a powerful emotional upheaval in a long time, Kaguya Shinomiya found herself almost unable to hold back her tears.

Am I about to cry?

Kaguya Shinomiya gently stroked her cheek, no tears falling, but an indescribable bitterness lingered in her heart, something that could neither be resolved nor erased.

On stage, Takamatsu Akari's recitation speed increased, and Shinomiya Kaguya's heart also tightened with the rhythm.

"I want to get it back, I want to express it, if that's allowed?"

"I don't want to give up like this."

"..."

"Am I reciting poetry?"

Her powerful voice resonated deep within Kaguya Shinomiya's heart, and the next second, tears the size of soybeans slid from her eyes and fell to the ground.

Kaguya Shinomiya didn't find anything particularly touching about the scene, but she just couldn't help but feel moved.

Perhaps that's the charm of a band.

From that moment on, Kaguya Shinomiya uncontrollably fell in love with this extraordinary band.

Chapter 134, Section 132: A Victory Celebration? A War Criminal Trial!

Music is the most comforting thing.

That statement was indeed correct.

By pouring all their emotions into "Poetry Beyond Bonds," and through the all-out performance and singing, everyone's pent-up frustration was fully released.

On stage, as the music gradually faded, the audience held their breath, with only their heavy breathing lingering in their ears.

Everyone stared at each other, speechless for a long time.

"Ai-yin..."

"Lixi..."

"Su Shi..."

“Lena…”

Gao Songdeng looked at everyone, wanting to say something, but every time he tried to speak, only sobbing could be heard.

It's hard to imagine that she completed the performance of "Poetry Beyond the Boundaries" under these conditions.

This is simply a miracle.

A moment later, it was the audience below the stage who came to their senses first and burst into loud cheers: "Encore! Encore! Encore!"

Encore?

Are you going to pay extra for the performance?

Ijichi Seika was both amused and exasperated. LiveHouses rarely have encores, and it wasn't a concert.

Then, she looked at Takamatsu Akari, who seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

This child is indeed quite talented; she's a beautiful gem. However, let's not put on a lesbian drama here. That's enough.

She decisively instructed the person in charge of the lighting station to turn off the spotlights to remind the girls who were lingering on the stage.

"Let's go back," Yoro said contentedly. Only then did the five of them realize what was happening and silently began packing up their instruments.

Seeing the five people's unwavering demeanor, someone in the audience began to wail and scream.

"Is that all? Just this one song?"
