Crossover Anime: I'm at Shuchiin Academy, and my surname is Uchiha.

Chapter 241 Let's go to the music festival!

"First of all, congratulations on the successful conclusion of your live performance. Do you have any plans for the rest of the summer?"

Nijika Ichichi slumped onto the table. "I'm so tired. There aren't any performances for a while, but just now an audience member asked us about our debut..."

Uchiha Ryo: "You guys aren't really planning to debut in the short term, are you? You still have two years of high school studies left."

Ichi Nijika shook her head.

"We don't really plan to debut anytime soon, but the Bond Band can't stay in Starlight Bar forever. After all, this is my sister's life's work."

A rolled-up poster hit Ichiji Nijika on the head; the store manager had somehow arrived backstage.

"What, you think my bar is too small, and your band can't gain enough popularity here to debut, right?"

Ichiji Nijika: "Hehehe, sis, I didn't mean that, it's just that we're still students... what are you talking about debuting now...."

The store manager chuckled, then unfolded the poster and slammed it onto the table.

"You four come over here and take a look. Are you interested in this?"

[Unconfirmed riot]

Ijichi Seika: "We are still in the registration phase. It's a small music festival that only young artists aged 10 to 19 can participate."

Nijika Iji, who was sitting to the side, took the poster.

"I've heard of that. I've heard that many emerging bands debut at music festivals like this. Even if they don't choose to debut officially, they can still accumulate a lot of popularity."

Kita Ikuyo: "Hmm... I think I've heard about it too. Shall we participate?"

Yamada Ryo: "I see... If anyone wants to appear, I'm fine with that."

All three of them turned their gazes toward the last member of the band.

Would Ichiri Goto agree to participate in something like a music competition? Given her personality, it would be difficult for her to remain calm at a music festival.

And indeed, when everyone's eyes were on him, Little Lonely fell silent.

If the band doesn't challenge itself after ending, it will only be able to slowly develop its career at Starlight Bar. Ichiji Nijika means that, if possible, she wants to prove the band's abilities. This is her dream, and since Hoshika-nee has offered this opportunity, she won't let it go easily.

Yamada Ryo is very easygoing; if the team wants to participate, he won't refuse.

Kita Ikuyo also wanted to participate. As a cheerful girl who loves excitement, she used to only be able to attend music festivals as a spectator. Now that she has a chance to stand on the stage, why not?

As a spectator, Uchiha Ryo couldn't say anything.

"Sister! Go participate! I want to see your performance live!"

Goto Jiri was just a child, and she naturally expressed her thoughts.

Little Lonely patted Erli's head, then glanced at Uchiha Rin.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm just a spectator; I can't help you with anything. You can decide for yourself whether or not to attend the music festival. I'm going to take this call."

Uchiha Ryo got up and left the backstage area, leaving only the four members of the Bond Band, Erri, and the shopkeeper.

Goto Ichiri picked up the poster, then took a deep breath and looked at everyone.

"Let's participate together!"

Ichiji Nijika smiled and said, "Little Lonely Girl! Let me make this clear, you're serious, right?"

Little Loneliness: "Of course!"

Ichi Hoshika: "Then you guys need to prepare well. It seems there will be an official live review by the competition organizers, and the videos will be uploaded for online voting. If you're only at the same level as today, be careful you don't get eliminated in the preliminary rounds."

Goto Ichiri: "Ah... okay."

"Also, the final competition is in the form of a music festival, where you'll be performing in front of thousands of people. Little Lonely, are you sure you can handle that?"

"....."

Kita Ikuyo: "Little Lonely One! Don't freeze! We'll cheer each other on!"

Goto Ichiri: "Ugh...ugh~"

Ichi Nijika coughed lightly.

"Now that we've made up our minds, we all need to get ready. First of all, there are still four months until the official music festival. During this time, we must make music videos for the songs and carry out a lot of activities."

Ryo Yamada: "But apart from the Starry Night live show, we don't have any other activities to do, right?"

Nijika Ichi: "You're right, relying solely on the monthly Starry Night performance isn't enough. Let's go do an outdoor performance!"

Ichi Seika tapped the table.

"You're making it sound like I'm not giving you a chance. But I did say that as long as you can pay the performance fees, I wouldn't mind giving you more shows."

Kita Ikuyo: "Wow! Look, the prize money for winning the music festival is one million yen!"

Yamada Ryo's expression turned serious.

"Come on! We'll definitely win the championship!"

Ichi Seika smiled.

"I can arrange a few more live shows for you right now, but on the condition that half of the prize money goes to me."

"That's impossible, sister. If we could get this money, we would use it to make CDs, records, and for promotion."

......

At the entrance to the Starry Sky, Goto Ichiri led Kojiri out, while Uchiha Ryo just finished hanging up the phone.

"You can rest assured to leave Yili to me. There are quite a few of us traveling, and we will take good care of her."

Uchiha Ryo: "You guys are out. Let's go, let's take Erli home first."

Little Loneliness sensed something!

"Um, I think I just heard my own name called, and why did they specifically say to take Erli home? What about me?"

Uchiha Ryo chuckled, "Little Lonely~ Aunt Goto has entrusted you to me. You'll stay with me for now, and I'll let you go home when we get back from our trip."

Goto Ichiri's expression froze.

"This...me!"

Goto Jiri pouted, "Jiri wants to go out and play too!"

"Although I really want to bring Niri along, Niri is still too young, and Aunt Goto is worried about her."

Xiao Er tugged at Uchiha Ryo's trouser leg.

"But if my sister can go, let me go and take care of her. Without me, my sister can't do anything outside."

Goto Ichiri was embarrassed. Although she wanted to refute Nuri's words, she was right...

"Brother Ling~ I want to go too!"

Bringing along Uchiha Rin (Niri) is not a problem, but Goto's parents just said that since this trip is to the beach, Niri is too young and needs to be watched over the whole time.

Helpless, Uchiha Ryo bent down and squatted in front of Goto Nuri.

"Well, Aunt Goto doesn't want you to leave home, Erli. How about we take you when you're older?"

Goto Natsumi: "Hmm... Dad also said that I can only go out and play freely when I grow up, but how long do I have to wait?"

Uchiha Ryo chuckled and tapped Niri's forehead with two fingers. "Niri, let's talk about it next time."
