His hobby is to repair things, and has developed quite a good skill towards it.... more>>

One day, while going to his "secret" scrapyard to gather some spare parts, he saw a girl playing an abandoned piano there. Somehow, the music had caused the junks to resonate, creating an illusion of a junkyard symphony. He was mesmerized by the familiar sounding melody, but he could not remember the tune. Just then, the girl noticed him, and called him a pe*vert/stalker. She then requested him to forget about the incident.

Back at home, Naomi realized that she is the piano prodigy Mafuyu Ebisawa, who had vanished from the music scene for some unknown reason. He met her soon again, with Mafuyu as the transfer student of his class. She declared to the class that there is no need to know her too well, since she will be gone soon. She had even snatched away an abandoned music shed that he had customized for his own personal use, in order to play her guitar. Not liking her cold personality and her sharp tongue, Naomi vowed to take back the music shed from her.

Somehow, things became such that he was roped in by a senior, Kyouko Kagurazawa, and childhood friend Chiaki Aihara, to start a music band. His mission was to get Mafuyu, the required forth member, into the band. However, he soon realized the shocking truth behind Mafuyu's reason for disappearing from the piano scene and playing the guitar. Knowing that, will he be able to forget about the melody he heard from the junkyard, or will he be able to help Mafuyu play the piano again? <<less

In a star system where soothing and comforting qualities are prioritized, she quickly made a name for herself at the small, rundown bar where she worked.

The imperial royalty, the wealthiest in the Federation, top military academy students, and scientific geniuses, among other high-quality males, all flocked to her.

Even the females, who were also of high status, became enamored with her singing.

Just when everyone thought she was merely a female singer with deep, resonant songs, she took her pipa and entered the battlefield.

Her powerful performance of Ten Directions Encircled instantly drove the males to retain their sanity while going into a frenzy.

Now, even though the Federation wanted to suppress her presence, no faction was willing to back down, all offering special conditions to recruit her.

A storm named Jiang Qin swept through the entire star system.

When they first met, Qin Yiyu saw Nan Yi holding a liquor bottle from the doorway, and thought he was there to collect debts.... more>>

But he actually said: “I’m forming a band, to participate in a competition. We’re missing a lead vocalist who can play guitar.”

Qin Yiyu: Oh, it would be better if he came to collect debts.

He agreed in the end, because he didn’t want to give up such a talented bassist.

— Later —

Nan Yi: Qin Yiyu is my target.

Qin Yiyu: (bulb lighting up) likes me.

Nan Yi: We can be friends.

Qin Yiyu: Understood, lip service friendship1. I don’t mind kissing you even though I’m a straight man.

Nan Yi: (inhale)

Qin Yiyu: He really loves me.

—-—

During the competition, no one had high hopes for this new band. Even the staff was talking about it backstage.

“The bassist sure is handsome, but you can’t rely on looks to eat. The drummer is said to have a temper so bad that he’s almost beaten people up. The keyboardist seems to be a bank employee who was fired. Coupled with a popular lead vocalist with a terrible personality who had been kicked out of his previous band, how can this kind of makeshift band win?”

Yet the four of them were right behind them.

Yan Ji: “Get it right, I wasn’t fired but resigned voluntarily, and it was an investment bank, not a bank.”

Chi Zhiyang: “What crap are you spewing! How is my temper bad!”

Qin Yiyu: “In such a long sentence, only the first four words are worth hearing. A person as perfect as myself, the only people who can insult me are either my close friends, or the reincarnation of the violin— a worthless thing.”

Staff: (embarrassed) (cold sweat) (speechless)

Nan Yi said coldly: “Excuse me, the grassroot band is about to go on stage.”
