69. Toru Watanabe, the traverser who interferes with human choices, you are the first
The light rain kept falling, making a fairly pleasant sound on the corridor windows.
Aoi Ichiki actively led the way, while Asako Hanada and Rin Kiyono talked about the general situation of the musical instrument department.
Tetsu Watanabe sat at the back, admiring Kiyono Rin's long, wavy black hair.
The four of them were on their way to the music club.
"...So the training of many members has been stopped recently." Hanada Asako said softly.
"That's it." Qingye Rin nodded, noncommittal.
As for Toru Watanabe, he didn't listen at all.
Although the music club is not as good as the baseball club and football club, it is definitely the first among cultural clubs.
Not only does the mobile classroom have a heavy door with sound insulation effect, but there are also small classrooms for each voice department for practice, with a total number of more than 80 people.
Compared with the Human Observation Club, which has only three members and uses the storage room (in the past) as a club classroom, it is like Kujo Miki's single-family villa or Watanabe Toru's rental house.
"So many people." Watanabe Tetsu said with envy.
"What's the use of having more people? I listened to their practice for two months, and except for the bass part, the rest are just a bunch of people." Rin Kiyono commented unceremoniously.
After speaking, she sighed and added: "It's a shame that they dare to set their sights on the national competition. They are as ignorant as Watanabe-san who tried to challenge me."
"Well."
Toru Watanabe, who was said to have no self-awareness, didn't care. He awkwardly cast apologetic looks at the two people in the instrumental club.
However, Hanada Asako and Ichimoku Aoi seemed to have been poked at their weak points, and lowered their heads in shame.
"Deputy Director Watanabe," Rin Kiyono said with an elder's attitude, "Although there are only two of us in the Human Observation Department, as long as we want to be a soloist, it is the minimum performance level of our department."
It seems that she has not recognized Kujo Miki's status as an official member.
Also, even if you are telling the truth, you still have to pay attention to the occasion!
Didn’t you see that the people in the music department around you looked at me unkindly?
Hanada Asako, who also noticed the gazes of the people around her, quickly said to the two of them: "Mai-senpai is in the small classroom of the bass part, please come with me."
The four of them left the large classroom of the Performance Department and walked into a classroom that was about half the size of the activity classroom of the Human Observation Department.
So luxurious!
Just a voice, why is it so luxurious!
You must know that before Kujo Miki joined the club, their activity space was only around a zelkova table!
In the small classroom, Asuka Mai was instructing three people to practice the euphonium. Two people sat in the corner, and the instrument they held was a tuba.
Watanabe Toru saw the No. 1 cello case with the name "Hanada Asako" written on it on the instrument stand.
"Senior Mai," Asako Hanada stepped forward softly, "Senior Kiyono and junior Watanabe want to visit, can you let them stay?"
"...Hmm." Asuka Mai responded without any emotion.
"Thank you." They thanked each other and sat on the stools in the corner.
Asuka Mai should be the leader of the bass section. In addition to guiding the first-year students including Ichiki Aoi, she will also organize everyone to play together.
Watanabe Toru glanced at Rin Kiyono who was listening to the music seriously, and decided to use his unknown 30% mysterious power.
This is to repay Kiyo Rin for helping him see through Kujo Miki's lies, allowing him to successfully get back together, and for hiding his confession that was all lies.
In addition, he himself also wanted to end this matter quickly.
'Ultraman who will use the system to help others capture girls, no, time traveler, Watanabe, you are the first and the last! Detector, open!'
The girl's information is displayed on the blue transparent panel.
[Character: Asuka Mai]
[Age: 17 years old]
[Intelligence: 7]
【Charm:8】
[Stamina: 6]
[Information: Lack of emotion; full of desire for things that bring a strong impact on the soul, currently obsessed with Watanabe Toru's smile]
[No relationship record, can be used as a guide]
"Huh?" Toru Watanabe blinked.
Asuka Mai's eyes, which looked like she had scooped up a handful from the clear lake in summer, were carefully looking at the music score on the stand, and her cherry-colored lips were pressed against the cold mouthpiece.
The euphonium's gentle, generous, melodious and soothing tone flows slowly in the small classroom.
'Infatuated with Toru Watanabe's smile?'
No matter how he looked at it, Toru Watanabe himself could not tell that the other party had such a hobby.
But the "detector" cannot make mistakes.
Is it because of lack of emotion? So even if you are obsessed, there will be no actual performance?
"Stop." Asuka Mai's melodious voice without any emotion sounded, "Continue practicing and play together again before the end."
"yes."
Everyone, including Ichiki Aoi and Hanada Asako, started practicing seriously. Asuka Mai put her euphonium on the chair and walked slowly towards the two people from the Human Observation Department.
"Feeling." She seemed to be asking about the level of the two's ensemble just now, but there was no question in her tone.
"Forget about the tuba and double bass, for the euphonium part," Rin Kiyono looked around, "if you, Asuka-senpai, play the solo solo, your chances of entering the Kanto Competition will be greater."
In the small classroom, only the sound of the plum rain could be heard in silence.
"Uh-huh," Toru Watanabe stood up awkwardly, "I'm sorry, my minister has strict requirements, and I didn't mean to say that other people's performances were not good."
Rin Kiyono glared at Toru Watanabe, but did not deny it. He just brushed the long hair on his shoulders neatly.
Asuka Mai was completely unaware of the awkward atmosphere in the small classroom at this time. After she nodded, she looked at Toru Watanabe with questioning eyes.
"That's all very good." Watanabe Toru said perfunctorily.
I don't know if it's because he has never studied acting, but he always feels that other people's eyes are even more unfriendly.
"Haha," Toru Watanabe smiled awkwardly, and pulled up Rin Kiyono, who didn't care about the unwelcome looks from everyone. "Sorry for disturbing you today, let's go first."
After Asuka Mai watched Toru Watanabe walk out of the small classroom, she walked slowly back to her seat. Then she ignored the embarrassed expressions of others and continued practicing without saying a word.
Two people from the Human Observation Department came to the corner of the corridor.
"Please pay attention to the occasion when you speak, my Minister Qingye!"
"You want me to lie?"
"That's not what I meant. I know you have your persistence, but in that case, you can just praise Senior Tomorrow for playing well by herself, isn't that enough?"
"Isn't that what I meant?" Qingye Rin sneered: "It has been two months since school started, and even those who have never touched a musical instrument are not at their level."
"That's their business." Watanabe Toru said helplessly.
"They themselves decided to aim for the national competition. Let alone not practicing seriously, they still blame the people who pointed out their problems?"
"this......"
"If I were the director of the performance department, they wouldn't even be able to sleep until they reach a level that I'm satisfied with."
"...It doesn't matter what happened in the instrumental department. I would like to ask, are there any level requirements for human observation? First of all, I must go to bed before twelve o'clock every day."
Qingye Rin chuckled and praised: "Don't worry, I'm quite satisfied with your level so far, whether it's submitting articles to the Arts Department or making up lessons for students with the lowest deviation scores."
"What about the future? If there is a task that I haven't completed, you won't let me sleep during the special training, right?"
"If this really happens, you must have already started working hard before I trained you, right?"
Although the see-through smile on Kiyono Rin's face made Toru Watanabe very unhappy, he still nodded.
Rin Kiyono smiled proudly and looked towards the bass section's small classroom.
she says:
"It doesn't matter what your current level is, the key is whether you are willing to work hard. If you are not good enough, you will blame the person who pointed out the problem... I take back what I said at the beginning, including the bass part, except for Asuka Mai-senpai
, the wind section is all a ragtag bunch."
Watanabe Tetsu was speechless.
He slapped his hand on his forehead: "Whatever you want."
Rin Qingye flipped her long hair with satisfaction and walked out of the corner: "Let's go back to our mobile classroom."
Watanabe Toru looked at her chic back.
It was not her turn as an unrelated person to criticize other people's affairs, but after being asked by Asuka Mai, she frankly expressed her inner thoughts. This was something Watanabe Toru both laughed at for her unsophistication, but also felt a little longing for in his heart.
Rin Kiyono is really a mirror.
If you are not ready to face your true self, it is best not to approach her.
'How perfect will I be in the future if I face the difficulties? Maybe if I don't do anything then, women all over the world will be rushing to be my girlfriend, right?'
"Unfortunately, I already have Kujo Miki."
"Watanabe-san, are you finally so insane that you are talking to yourself? The environment in my mental sanatorium is really..."
