"It turns out this is this place."

Turn off your cell phone when in Nanxiang.

The Japanese will always give the name of a holy place to places that can be seen everywhere, and then add superfluous meanings to them on their own initiative.

But it’s no wonder that the simulator will say “This is the closest you’ve ever been to your dream”.

To be on this stage must be something that Ichichi Hongka and the others have always dreamed of, right?

It is the place where dreams come true.

Thinking of this, Nan Xiangshi turned to look at Mi.

[This is the closest you will get to your dream. 】

[You have noticed that Kazuri Goto is very focused on arranging lyrics, Ryo Yamada is arranging music without slacking off, Hikaru Itachi is constantly working on new songs, and Ikuyo Kita is seriously improving his guitar skills. 】

[This makes you a little strange. The repertoire played by the band in the past two years has been enough to support them in completing a perfect performance in the Budokan. Why are they still writing lyrics and music in a hurry now? 】

[But you respected their decision in the end. 】

[Getting to this point is the result of the joint efforts of you and them. No matter who is missing, we can't reach this peak. You have already symbiotically coexisted with the ending band. 】

[The time was spent in the not-so-long arrangement of the venue, and soon it came to the end of the day when the band officially took the stage at the Budokan. 】

[The venue was decorated in pink, red, blue and yellow, and fans wearing clothes related to the band formed long queues at the various entrances of the venue. 】

[As the opening approaches, you finally finish all the work at hand. You put down all the materials and relieve yourself of all the fatigue. Sitting in the first row prepared for you by the martial arts gym - you want to watch them realize their dreams from the nearest distance. 】

[The waiting process is undoubtedly very difficult. You stand up and sit down, and look at the time from time to time, and even take the time to call Ijichi Hongxia. 】

[After confirming that there will be no 'car accident', 'sudden diagnosis of illness', 'death from overwork', etc., you sit down and continue to wait. 】

[The person in charge of the martial arts gym next to him joked that you really care about ending the band members. 】

[You just smile and brush it off casually, because you know how long they have been preparing for today. 】

[It’s just that you still haven’t figured it out yet. Why is Goto Kazuri writing a new song before his upcoming Budokan appearance? 】

[But this doubt disappeared after the band's performance officially started. 】

[They are fascinating on stage, whether it is the steady rhythm of the drums, the thick wall of sound formed by the bass, or the exquisite coordination of the lead guitar and the consonant guitar. 】

[The atmosphere at the scene was extremely enthusiastic. The shouts at the end of the band shook the entire Tokyo! 】

[The last trace of uneasiness finally dissipated at this moment. 】

[It turns out that before you know it, they have grown into a national rock band that can play independently without you. 】

[You completely relax and start to enjoy their performance like an ordinary audience member. 】

[It’s been a long time since you listened purely to their performance like this. 】

【In the long-term relationship, you can hear their changes in emotions from the sound of music. 】

[But what makes you confused is that Goto Ichiri's new songs have not been played for a long time, and everyone is still playing the songs that were played before the band ended. 】

[Playing, coming to the end soon. 】

[But at the end of this, Ijichi Hongka, who was sweating profusely, suddenly stood up. 】

[She told everyone that the next song will be sung by Ichiri Goto. This is a song of great special significance and she wants to give it to a special person. 】

In the simulator, memory floats.

The martial arts venue, which can accommodate 15,000 people, was packed with seats.

Ichichi Hongka, who was holding a microphone in his hand, stood up and announced to everyone that the next song would be sung by lead guitarist Kazuri Goto, who had never performed in public.

Nan Xiang felt worried.

In his impression, Goto Ichiri was still the timid little girl who cowered and hid behind him.

Can she really sing loudly on a stage with fifteen thousand people?

He raised his head subconsciously.

But he found that she was also looking at him on the stage.

Found it when I was in Nanxiang.

Her eyes sparkled.

Like fireflies in the summer.

Although weak.

But it does attract some people.

"The title of the song is 'I Don't Want to Die Lonely'."

Her voice on the stage was still weak.

But the next moment——

Buzz——

Guitars roar.

[You never noticed. 】

[The girl who has been hiding behind you, timid and never dared to speak, has been able to step out from behind you without even realizing it. 】

【at this time. 】

【She is watching you! Scream on stage! 】

【She is watching you! The guitar is screaming! 】

【She is watching you! She's screaming on her guitar! 】

[Off the court, you can no longer tell whether the guitar is shouting or she is shouting. 】

"Who can I be?!"

"What kind of person do I want to be?"

"I don't want to die in loneliness and failure!"

"I feel inferior to myself and feel sorry for myself!"

"The me who has always been clumsy and at a loss!"

"I don't want to die in loneliness and failure!"

The guitar has a tearing hollow sound.

It squeezes people's hearts.

On the stage, she only looked at Nanxiang Shi.

She didn't feel nervous.

Because her stage has only one audience.

The harsh sound waves trapped Nanxiang's feet that wanted to move.

Drum roll!

The bass bounces!

The song explodes!

Then comes the intense guitar SOLO!

She puts her lips close to the microphone!

【You have survived spring, summer, autumn and winter for me! 】

【For me who has always been clumsy and at a loss! 】

[For me who is so timid and about to die! 】

[I don’t want to die in loneliness and failure! 】

[I don’t want to die in loneliness and failure! 】

【I want to die with you! 】

【......】

The song ends.

There was silence.

The whole place was so quiet that the only sound was her thin breathing, leaning against the microphone.

next moment--

Thunderous applause!

Chapter 41. What is loneliness?

The rapid guitar solo is like a sudden rain in a clear summer sky, hitting everyone's heart.

Ichiri Goto's weak singing voice is completely inferior to that of Ikuyo Kita, who has appeared on stage many times as the lead vocalist.

But in the audience, no one could ignore the heart-rending emotion in his voice.

And from this song.

Nanxiang, who knew them best, heard the monologues and accusations of Goto Kazuri's struggles and regrets in his heart.

"I don't want to stop being depressed because of my timidity..."

"I've had enough of being alone..."

"can you hear me..."

"I don't want to live under a gloomy sky anymore. I also want to take the initiative to talk to others. I don't want to pretend to enjoy loneliness anymore!"

"Can you hear me?!"

Through her voice that was so thin that it had nothing to add.

"Can you see it?!"

It seems that I really saw it when I was in Nanxiang.

She saw other students chatting during class, but she could only sit on the desk in a daze.

She was sitting alone on the swing in the park.

She was huddled in the closet alone at night, sliding her finger across the screen of her phone.

When the band finished playing, Mu Ran looked back and looked at her back as they left.

She only dared to stretch out her hand and gently wave goodbye when their backs were turned.

All her life she has been trying to get out of the shadow of social fear.

"Isn't social fear fun?! Isn't it fun to watch me make a fool of myself because of social fear!"

She was roaring unwillingly.

I saw it when I was in Nanxiang.

Sweat dripped from the edges of her fair cheeks while playing.

scattered on the stage.

Like crystal stars.

really beautiful.

When the entire song falls.

There was silence.

A monologue that only belongs to her.

A song that only belongs to her.

It’s all emotion, no technique.

But that's exactly what makes it so exciting.
