- Chapter 238: Playing hard to get, RUNTO band was officially established
As the end of the semester approaches, all the students in the school are worried about the final exams.
But with the results of Tianhai Qimingyue, there is no need to think about it at all.
In her world, except for her sister who occasionally surpasses her, no one else can surpass her.
She had been wondering about something else for the past few days.
That is – why didn’t my brother invite me to join the band?
This made Tianhai Qimingyue think about it for a long time.
It stands to reason that the brother’s top priority is to resolve the completely discordant relationship between himself and his sister.
If he formed a band, he would inevitably involve himself in it.
She could understand that, but there was no reason for her to reconcile with her sister.
As long as Sakakihara Raku invites him, he will definitely refuse.
She had the ending figured out.
If he coaxes you to feel comfortable, then go in; if you feel uncomfortable, then don’t go in.
But now?
Don’t talk about joining the band.
I didn’t even see anyone after school every day.
what is this?
“Forget it, hang him for a few more days.”
Tianhai Qimingyue is very patient. Since you don’t come to me, I won’t pay attention to you.
Just live your daily life how you want to.
One day, two days, three days.
This is how things should have happened.
Tianhai Qimingyue can hardly sit down in the Literature Department. That guy still doesn’t show up. I wonder if the final exam will be in three days?
Why haven’t you come to yourself yet?
She put the book in her hand on the table.
I closed the door of the Literature Department in a rather unhappy mood.
Walking down the club building with light steps, Tianhai Qimingyue began to pace around the campus.
Playground, no.
Class 4 classroom, no.
Gym, no.
Not even the archery club on my sister’s side was seen.
There was no reply on the phone.
Tianhai Qimingyue stood outside the archery dojo and withdrew his gaze.
She couldn’t help but think, where did this guy go?
Tianhai Qimingyue was walking in school. There were some snowflakes today, and the bushes in the flower bed were covered with a thin layer of crystals. Her figure skipped the corridor of the teaching building. Many students along the way chose to avoid her after seeing her wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
Tianhai Qimingyue noticed the way those classmates looked at her.
There are likes, there are fears, and there are also concessions that I dare not face.
She was not surprised by this.
Arriving at the library, Xiaolin Xiyue, who was on duty today, sat at the oak reception desk reviewing her homework, tapping the end of her pen on her cheek, and thinking hard.
“Senior.”
“Is the minister here to borrow books?” Xiao Lin Xiyue raised her head and saw the upright Tianhai Qimingyue.
“No, I’m looking for someone.”
“Looking for someone? Ah, is it Sakakihara-san?”
“He is here?” Tianhai Qimingyue asked.
“Well, Sakakibara-san came to the library right after school. He even said hello to me when he came in. If the minister wants to find him, he can be found on the first floor.”
After learning that Sakakibara was in the library, Nanami Nanami glanced at the simple pendulum clock on the wall and began to look for a certain guy in various areas.
I saw him in the reference book area labeled d.
Raku Sakakihara stood in front of the bookshelf, glanced at the spines of the books arranged according to the fifty tones, reached out and picked out a book on the sixth floor to read.
He casually twitched his hand and tried to turn a page, and found a girl with flaxen hair standing on the other side looking at him. She stood under the fan-shaped glass window, and the light coming in from outside was a bit dazzling.
Sakakihara smiled at her stern face:
“good afternoon.”
Tianhai Qimingyue didn’t look good, “What are you doing here?”
Sakakibara closed the book, with the cover facing her, which read “Rock Chronicle”.
Tianhai Qimingyue followed his movements and looked at the cover of the book.
Sakakihara smiled slightly and said, “As you can see, I am seeking knowledge.”
“There are only three days until the end of the semester. Don’t you plan to review?”
“I have already reviewed what I should review, and now I will go home to take care of Suzu’s homework.” Raku Sakakihara opened “Rock Chronicle” and answered casually, “Nana Mingzuki, why did you come to me?”
What do I want from you?
You don’t know it yourself?
“It’s nothing, I’m just curious, brother, what have you been doing these days. Except at night, you can hardly see your shadow.”
“Preparing for the exam, helping Suzu prepare for the exam, occasionally running for exercise, and helping Zhixue’s video clips. It’s very ordinary.” Raku Sakakihara continued to flip through the book, with a smile on his lips.
He waited for three days.
Qi Mingyue might as well have taken the bait.
Tianhai Qimingyue could see from his expression that this guy was deliberately trying to appease her.
Forget it, she would just show off her cards.
“It’s been three days.”
“What three days?”
Tianhai Qimingyue said dissatisfiedly: “You formed a band, why didn’t you call me?”
Sakakibara wanted to laugh, but he held back, “I want to ask Qi Mingyue what you think first.”
“I have the right to refuse to answer.”
Sakakibara squeezed the book with one hand, closed the book, and said with a smile to Amami Nanamigetsu, who had his arms crossed: “Then I also have the right to refuse to answer.”
Tianhai Qimingyue didn’t care, and her expression didn’t change at all: “If you still want to continue the previous bickering, I’m happy to accompany you.”
“I don’t want to argue with you.”
“Then what do you want to do?”
Raku Sakakibara thought it was time to throw out the invitation to her, “How about joining our band?”
“.Would you have said it earlier?” Tianhai Qimingyue asked calmly.
“Then will you join?”
“Not joining.”
“That’s it!”
Sakakihara Raku felt that he was the most speechless one, “I already know the result anyway, why did I bother asking you three days ago?”
Tianhai Qimingyue said again: “Can you know the answer without asking?”
“I know, I completely know.” Sakakihara shook the book in his hand, “Just put the facts in front of me.”
“Then what are you going to do?”
“Do nothing.” Sakakibara smiled brighter at her.
“.” Tianhai Qimingyue was still faceless, “Are you going to use this to force me to compromise?”
“That’s wrong, Qi Mingyue, I’m not forcing you, I just don’t want to do useless work.”
“Don’t you try to persuade me?”
“I’ve thought about it, but I think it has little effect.” Sakakihara laughed again and shook the book in his hand. “It’s not as good as what I’m doing now. If you want to join Qi Mingyue, I welcome it, but you expect me to ask for help.” You, there is no way.”
The corners of Tianhai Qimingyue’s eyes raised, and her beautiful little face was full of confidence: “Last time you said you would never like me, what was the result?”
“This time is different.” Sakakihara showed no intention of compromise.
“.”
She actually knew in her heart that when she couldn’t help herself, she came out to look for him.
This battle without sound or start time was already lost.
Tianhai Qimingyue’s eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses were closed and then opened again: “It seems that brother has become smarter recently and understands that it is better to compromise and play hard to get.”
“Thank you for the compliment.” Sakakibara gave her the gentlemanly courtesy he learned from her.
“Okay, I can agree to join your band.”
“It must be conditional, right?” Sakakibara knew without guessing, because Qi Mingyue never let herself suffer.
“No.”
“I have to say it first, I will not agree to your conditions unless…” Sakakibara took a while to come back to his senses and said in surprise, “Wait, you don’t have any additional conditions you need?”
“No.”
“.true and false?”
“No means no.”
Sakakibara couldn’t imagine that Nanami Qimingyue would actually agree to him like this.
You know she is the most stingy kind of person.
You know, even Jiu Liuli gave her a lot of reasons before she agreed to join.
“Why?”
“Don’t you understand?”
The two looked at each other.
Eyes meet.
Everyone has their own reasons for joining the band.
Sakakihara Raku knows because he himself is like this.
Nanami Mingyue didn’t tell her reasons, but because of the look she gave her just now, Sakakibara already understood the reason why she agreed to join the band.
Tsk, not candid at all!
Amami Nanami took the lead to retract her gaze, turned her head in the opposite direction, and hugged her elbow with one hand, leaving only her beautiful side face facing Sakakibara Raku, “Actually, I didn’t intend to embarrass you too much from the beginning. If you come for two more days, I will take advantage of the situation. Agree, all I need is an attitude.”
Sakakibara approached her, bent down, and stretched out his hand.
“Wait a minute, you, what are you doing?” Tianhai Qimingyue turned back an eye.
Sakakibara picked her up.
“rise!”
“Eh! You-“
With her feet off the ground, all her body weight fell towards him. The girl panicked for a moment and could only use her hands to support his shoulders.
Because the center of gravity was on him, Tianhai Qi Mingyue’s belly quickly rested on his shoulder, and her upper body reached behind his shoulder.
“I just thought the way you looked at me was so cute, and I suddenly wanted to hug you.” Sakakibara covered her calf wearing black stockings with his left hand.
“You, do you call this a hug? You call this a resistance.”
This strange posture made Tianhai Qimingyue’s cheeks turn a bright red.
“Really? I heard that shoulder-to-shoulder resistance to your girlfriend will make you have special boyfriend power.”
“Where did you hear this nonsense?” Tianhai Qimingyue only felt ashamed. She had never been held up by someone on her shoulders before. “Okay, let me down quickly.”
“No, I feel like you’re quite light. Do you want us to go for a walk?”
“Aren’t you afraid of being discovered by your sister? Okay, let me down quickly. This is the library. If others see you, you will be laughed at.”
“Then how about another princess hug? I know Qi Qi likes this action.”
“Who likes your princess hug?”
“Would you like a kiss?”
“My mind is full of these things.”

[Forming a band is no empty talk! ]
——From the large oil pen characters on the calendar on the wall of Sakakibara Raku’s bedroom.
That being said, why can a band be called a band?
This is where construction is urgently needed.
The next day.
On the day before the final exam, after the family review time in the afternoon, Raku Sakakihara glanced at the girls in front of him one by one who had finally managed to get together.
Amami Kururi who is packing up her study supplies, Amami Yuki who is eating bread, Sakakibara Suzu who is as limp as a slug after reviewing, and Amami Nanamigetsu who continues to flip through the books.
The warm air from the air conditioner in the living room is blowing, and the 100-inch large TV is broadcasting variety shows.
In fact, if you observe carefully, you will find that the two girls who look exactly the same are sitting in different seats, and they did not say anything during the study time.
This is the current gap between the two
With this in mind, Sakakihara Raku knelt down directly above him, facing several people, put his fist to his mouth, and announced:
“Hmm, homework time is over. Now, let’s formally discuss things about our band.”
Sakakihara took out a dice with his backhand and placed it in the center of the table.
“In order to encourage everyone to speak actively, whoever rolls the dice will speak.”
“Why bother?” Sakakihara Suzu pouted and complained.
“Well, okay, the number is two, Aling, you have the floor.”
“What?!” Sakakihara Suzu shook her head and before she could react, “Why is it my turn to speak?”
Sakakihara pointed at the dice with two points on the face, “Anyway, it’s you, the name of the band, you start it.”
“Name it?! No, I’m super awesome, okay?”
“Quick, get one up.”
“Hmm.” Sakakibara Suzu touched her chin and had a flash of inspiration, “Sakakibara Suzu Band!”
The next second, there was a fist on her head.
“Hey, what are you doing!”
Sakakibara drilled her head hard and said with his eyes closed in a sullen tone: “Be more serious.”
Sakakihara Suzu slapped the fist on her head away and thought for a moment: “Hmm. The band was founded by Yuyuki-chan, so why not just call it the Fried Ice Cream Band!”
“.”
“.”
Sakakihara Suzu glanced around happily, but all she saw was silence. She muttered dissatisfiedly:
“How nice is this! How cute is the ice cream.”
Sakakihara crossed his legs and put his hands on his knees to remind: “A Suzu, which rock band have you ever seen calling fried ice cream? Look, no one supports you at all.”
“This name is okay.” Tianhai Zhixue spoke slowly.
“Haha, look, brother! Zhixue agrees! So, vote. Please raise your hands if you think my name is good.”
Suzu Sakakihara acted according to the opportunity and directly raised her arm to indicate voting in the most democratic way.
But obviously, apart from the two of them, the others were silent.
“What?” Sakakihara Suzu was immediately discouraged.
“Not everyone is as good-mouthed as you two. Let’s consider this name as an alternative.” Sakakihara commented and continued to throw the dice.
This time it was 5, Tianhai Jiuliuli spoke.
“Let’s give it a name.”
She thought about it first.
“It seems that a rock band can be named anything. When choosing a name, we still have to ensure a certain style. What is the style of our band?”
Everyone shook their heads.
Obviously, how can a band that doesn’t even have a name have a style?
“In this case, we can only judge based on identity or age. A little bit youthful, Sea of Summer?” Tianhai Jiuliuli spoke a very pure British-style English.
“Summer Sea? Well, it’s pretty good, just a spare.”
At 4 o’clock, Tianhai Qimingyue spoke.
“Blue shark.” Tianhai Qimingyue also has a British accent.
“Blue Shark Band?” Sakakihara looked at her.
Tianhai Qimingyue put on a “don’t understand” attitude, “Since it is rock and roll, there is nothing wrong with the Shark Band.”
Sakakibara Suzu jumped in directly, waved her hands and said: “Let me see, why not call them the Rabbit Band? If it’s rock music, the Cyberpunk Rabbits are also super cool, okay?”
“let me see”
Sakakibara Raku said, the Kururi one is more flavorful.
Summer Sea sounds quite youthful.
Blue Shark’s words may sound plain at first, but if you think about it carefully, plain is good, and it can be used.
Raku Sakakibara asked Amami Noyuki: “Does Yuki have anything to say?”
“No.”
“What about a name?”
“Won’t.”
“.”
Fine.
“Brother, you want one too! Don’t just let us talk.”
“Let me think.”
Sakakibara frowned and thought for a while, and he suddenly discovered that the Blue Shark Band of Amami Seven Moons was actually the simplest, most unpretentious, and most suitable rock band.
But it doesn’t seem quite right.
Sakakihara held his chin, lowered his head and pondered for three minutes.
“RUN TO.”
Tianhai Jiuliuli and Tianhai Qimingyue both looked over.
“Run to? What does this mean?” Sakakihara Suzu asked.
Sakakihara explained: “Actually, there is an abbreviation here. In fact, the whole name should be run to you. If translated, it can be called ‘Run to You’, which can be understood as starting towards you. As a band name, it has a lot of feeling,” Music that’s coming to you, a band that’s coming to you’. How about this?”
“.”
Everyone is thinking.
Sakakibara took the opportunity to add a few words to promote his thoughts: “I know that everyone sitting here has different thoughts on agreeing to join this band, but there is no doubt that we will find something here that has not been seen before. Things, we will try to take steps forward and run towards everyone’s hearts, so the name RUN TO is very good.”
Tianhai Jiuliuli nodded, and Tianhai Qimingyue reluctantly agreed.
Sakakihara Suzu felt that what her brother explained was indeed a little more meaningful than her own fried ice cream, so she nodded in agreement.
As for Tianhai Zhixue, there is no time when she disagrees.
After gathering the opinions of the five people, Sakakibara cleared his throat and said seriously:
“Well, our band is called RUNTO, or running band for short! Applause, applause!”
“Oh oh oh!” Sakakihara Suzu clapped her hands vigorously in support.
The name of the band was solemnly announced, and then came the responsibilities of the five people in the band.
Tianhai Jiuliuli is, without a doubt, the keyboardist.
Although it would be too different for a beautiful classical piano girl to be a rock keyboardist, this is indeed the instrument she can master the fastest.
Tianhai Zhixue, guitarist.
As a rock guitarist who has been living at home for nearly ten years, even though she only has more than 60 fans on the Internet, she is still the best choice to be the guitarist of this band.
The difficulty lies below.
The band now has three required positions remaining.
——Bass, drums, vocals.
There is definitely no problem with Ah Ling being the lead singer. She practices her voice every day and has the most experience.
Raku Sakakihara wanted to be a bassist because he had third-rate guitar experience and wouldn’t have to learn it from scratch.
The problem is, Qi Mingyue only plays the violin.
It’s not like a rock band can’t have a violin, there’s nothing wrong with that.
But if this happens, there will be no one left on the drum set!
“I’ll come, I’ll come, I’ll come!” Suzu Sakakihara raised her hands quite actively.
“If you become the drummer, what will you do as the lead singer?” Sakakihara couldn’t help but ask.
“Humph, of course it’s the angel who plays two roles, knocking and singing.”
“no.”
Sakakihara thought for a moment and shook his head.
Regardless of the fact that Ah Ling doesn’t know how to play the drum, playing and singing at the same time is really exhausting.
Tianhai Qimingyue interjected: “I don’t deny the possibility of a drummer being the lead singer, but as long as you know a little bit about music, you will understand how difficult it is to achieve a stable rhythm, interference in interpretation, and to drive the atmosphere of the scene at the same time. On the premise of having the qualities of a lead singer and a drummer.”
“That’s it, what do you think we should do? A rock band can’t be without a drum set, right?”
There really is no good solution for everyone, and they all have their own identities.
Sakakihara Raku said: “How about letting me come? Nanami Mingzuki can go to Bass.”
Tianhai Qimingyue pondered for a moment, then let go of his hand: “Forget it, I’ll do it.”
“Nanamigetsu, do you know how to play drums?” Raku Sakakibara couldn’t help but ask, because the confidence in Amami Nanamigetsu’s tone could not be concealed at all.
“No, but you can learn it. The most important thing for a drum set is rhythm, and I have been practicing this for countless years. Even if it is not exactly the same, the foundation is still there.”
“Then it’s confirmed, Qi Mingyue, you are the drummer.”
“Well, it’s not impossible to give up the drums and switch to the violin occasionally.”
“OK, then it’s decided! I announce that the RUNTO band is officially established today!”
Vocalist – A Ling.
Guitarist – Zhi Xue.
Keyboard player-Jiu Liuli.
Drum or violin – Qimingyue.
Bass – Ale.
The goal is to head towards the Tokyo Budokan! Become a famous young band!
At night, Sakakihara stared at the note posted on his wall, knowing that there was a long way to go in the days to come.
