Chapter 102 Running towards the night

Emotional vocals accompanied by heavy and clear drum beats opened Rika's first concert as a singer.

This song has never been sung before. It is a new song prepared by Chen Ling. It is now placed in the opening position. This is the change that Rika wanted to make before going on stage.

In fact, such changes played a role in deeply affecting people's hearts from the beginning.

The bluesy melody carries a strong sadness, and this song is about her confession.

She drew herself a cage of love.

'People are always chasing the figure of love'

'A lonely and boring life'

'A sudden burst of brilliance'

'Since the day you appeared in front of me'

'Even in loneliness and pain'

'I can bear it from now on'

It’s just loneliness, it’s just constant dealing with that family, so what if it’s painful?

As long as I have you, I can endure it. Your face in my memory will never be erased. Even if they are hidden in the darkness, I can find them.

'Previously violent and greedy'

'It's all meaningless from now on'

'Since the day you gave me love'

'Whether free or leisurely'

'A person will only have emptiness'

Spending time in a room without you is worse than going to a place with you as soon as possible and breathing the same air with you.

In the dark, countless fluorescent sticks are waving to my singing, facing the audience. I can't look back. I want to see if your face under the mask is touched by my singing and my heart. ?
  What's your expression now?

Are you as expressionless as me, or do you feel a little bit like you are loved?

You have such a stupid head, but even so, I will never tire of it.

'I won't leave you alone, absolutely not'

'Even if the ruthless reality cruelly separates you and me'

'It will only make us more attracted to each other'

'No matter how much effort is needed'

'I have deep confidence'

'I won't let you be alone'

This is a song dedicated to one person, and the audience of this song is only one.

Right behind me.

The vocals and accompaniment gradually disappear, indicating that this new song is coming to an end.

The next moment, suppressed applause spread throughout the space. Perhaps the song was too emotional, and more of the applause was just resonant.

This is recognition.

The lights gradually brightened, and the black Rika combination clearly appeared in the sight of all the audience, and cheers finally broke out.

The first new song is really able to touch everyone's heart, especially the audience who have experienced that kind of unforgettable love can empathize with it the most.

Lead singer Rika's voice, emotion, and singing skills give this song unparalleled appeal.

Of course, the lyrics and melody that are extremely suitable for the occasion are also perfect, which cannot be separated from the credit of the composer "Minano".

But what is he doing now?

Slowly moving his hands away from the keys, Chen Ling felt the feeling of his heart beating in his chest. Maybe it was because Rika's singing voice was so moving, but he always felt a little depressed.

Now, he was not nervous at all, all he could see was her back in front of him, fine dust flying in the dry air, and the song of Naomi Rika still seemed to be echoing in Chen Ling's mind.

For some reason, Chen Ling felt a little strange in his heart.

Maybe it's depression, maybe it's sour.

He stood there with an ugly green ghost mask on his face, and no one could see his expression clearly.

I wanted to say something, but this was not the time to speak.

The lights changed color again, followed by two previously released songs.

At present, some of the songs of Rika group are not suitable for calling, but are more suitable for listening carefully. Therefore, although the atmosphere is not too hot, it also has another kind of harmonious and soothing atmosphere.

After the three songs were over, it was time for a planned break.

In other words, the singer chatters and talks. After all, human physical strength is not infinite.

Wearing a mask, Rika Kaina bowed slightly and said hello to the audience.

"Mina-san, good evening."

She looked at the thousands of spectators waving light sticks in the audience, and she didn't feel too nervous. Today, there was only one person she wanted to sing for.

“It is my honor to take this opportunity to spend a pleasant and meaningful time with you all today.”

The girl wearing the white fox mask turned her face sideways and seemed to be looking at the audience sitting in the corner, but Chen Ling's mind moved slightly, and she had the illusion that she was being watched by Rika.

Chen Ling really admired Miss Lixiang for being able to remain calm on a stage of this size. If it were him, he would have stood there, hemming and hawing, his mind went blank, and he started to dig his toes on the ground.

Rika, as a singer, has only been in the past half a year, but she has already reached the point where she can fill all the seats at the concert, which makes Chen Ling sigh.

After a short interval, Rika Shona continued to speak.

"As we all know, we debuted only half a year ago. We are very lucky to be loved by everyone along the way."

Rika-chan, are you speaking on the podium? It was so grand.

"Now let me answer the most widely circulated question on the Internet: Why do Mr. Minano and I wear masks."

So you also know how to read the comment section?

"The answer is: I am too ugly... and Mr. Minano is too cool, so neither of us is ready to appear in public yet."

There were a lot of "Huh?" sounds in the audience.

This answer is exactly the same as when they participated in an offline program for the first time.

"Perhaps, I will consider meeting you in person in the future. For now, please continue to listen to our voices."

“We don’t have too many repertoire at the moment, but we’ll be doing a few cover songs next.”

As Rika said, the concert was not short and it would not be long enough to sing only their own songs, so they bought the copyrights of a few songs that Chen Ling thought were pretty good.

This is quite common, and Rika also sings in her own style. As long as she doesn't imitate others rigidly and remains the same, then it's still Rika's own stage.

The time of just over an hour was not long, and it was fleeting during the performance. During this period, Rika also sang a new song, but it was not the main song, and it was not as ear-catching as the famous songs.

It is normal to need to replenish water during a concert, so there is usually a place at the back of the stage specifically for singers to drink water.

On the current stage, Rika's position is next to Chen Ling's keyboard.

Chen Ling's water bottle was also placed on it.

After a song, Rika Rika turned around and walked towards Chen Ling. Their eyes met under the mask, and Chen Ling could clearly see Rika's thin lips slightly opening, taking a small breath, and calming her heartbeat.

After all, singing several songs in a row will always make you tired.

The black-haired girl wearing black long sleeves stretched out her hand as if to get her water bottle. The light above her head made Chen Ling's eyes dizzy.

Hey, which bottle is my water?

The next moment, Rika had picked up the water bottle closer to Chen Ling, opened her mouth and sucked the straw on the bottle mouth.

Well, Chen Ling remembered, this is his...

On stage, of course, you have to be more reserved when drinking water. You can't blow the bottle, it's too indecent.

Although he was still on the stage, Chen Ling's attention was only focused on the regular swallowing movements on the slender neck in front of him.

A bit...

Chen Ling, why don’t you be a curly-haired baboon who makes Q’s everywhere?
  Sister, you were careless on purpose, right?

She turned back to the center of the stage, the lights dimmed, and the concert was coming to an end.

Chen Ling suddenly picked up the microphone next to him and turned on the switch.

"So far, while we are developing, we have also received some doubts... Some people say that singers need to master various styles to be called versatile, but in fact, songs with their own style can last longer. Time is preserved in your hearts.”

His speech caused the audience to fall into silence.

"Yeah, of course I'm just saying this. The last song today is also the first song for Rika and us to bravely step out of our comfort zone and respond to everyone's doubts."

The spotlight instantly focused on the graceful figure in the white fox mask. She stood in the center of the stage, holding the microphone.

""Running toward the night""

The girl's low voice echoed over the stage, and the next moment, the ethereal singing penetrated everyone's eardrums.

'Like drowning and melting'

'Under the vast sky where there are only you and me' Chen Ling pressed the keys one by one, and the electronic piano sounds with strong rhythm weaved into a brisk melody that was completely different from the past, impacting the audience's hearing.

Rika's singing method is also different from before. It no longer focuses on singing and emotional expression. Her pronunciation is clearer and every sound is more accurate.

'For you who have lost your smile in these noisy days'

'Provide you with all the dazzling tomorrows you can imagine'

'Before falling into the night that never dawns'

'Here, take my hand. '

The black-haired girl Rika extended her right hand forward, as if to invite someone to drive with her in the dark night.

Will he?

'Even those who want to forget everything'

'Closed days'

'I will also melt it with the warmth of our embrace'

'There's nothing to fear 'til dawn comes again'

'Let's hug each other tightly'

The extremely modern electronic synthesis sound is like a car driving in the night, heading into the endless darkness.

The very upbeat rhythm and melody caused all the light sticks in the audience to follow the drumbeat, and there was even a cry that shocked Chen Ling.

Is this the innate cooking ability of fans?

Although the lyrics of this song are somewhat sad, the melody is not soft.

It is full of passion and determination, and the singing of Rika seems to be filled with determination to break through all obstacles.

'You say "enough is enough" and "tired"

'Despite me'

'Throw away the hand stretched out to you'

Maybe you think you haven't done this, but to me, your departure is nothing more than letting the darkness that is about to break above your head return to silence.

But I won't give up until you can hold my hand.

'You will cry for me in the days that remain the same'

'Gently leading to the end'

'Like drowning and melting'

'The stained haze finally dispersed'

Just like the hesitation between your eyebrows, it will no longer be a reason to lose your smile.

'I want to forget everything'

'In closed days'

'Hold the hands you hold out to me'

'The cool wind is like swimming in the night sky'

'Blow by'

The black-haired girl's eyes were blurred, as if she saw the person waiting at the end of the darkness.

'Don't let go of your tightly held hands'

Don't let go even if your hands are sweaty.

'The two of them are now flying towards the night'

Even if the dawn never comes, I will be happy with it.

……

Wuhu, pop the champagne~
  Chen Ling was sitting on the sofa at his home. There was a plastic bag on the table, which contained various kinds of wine that he had never seen before.

This time, it’s not just about opening the champagne bar at halftime. The first concert has ended successfully.

What is strange is that after the concert, the three female heroes did not choose to go to the izakaya to celebrate the party today, but moved it to tomorrow night.

The reason is that I am too tired.

Que, I understand that everyone is tired after a large-scale concert and wants to go home to rest and adjust.

So Chen Ling could only open the champagne himself.

In fact, the purpose of drinking is not to celebrate. This kind of thing is obviously more atmospheric when everyone is together. In fact... Chen Ling is a little worried now.

Because, hearing Sister Lixiang in such a scene, it was really difficult to calm down.

Are you worried?

Chen Ling didn't understand, he just felt a little dull in his heart. Of course, maybe it was just Rika's singing that was too contagious, but that didn't stop him from falling deeply into it.

Ruoda's apartment was empty except for Chen Ling himself.

After the eldest lady's performance, she went home first, which was her initiative.

Chen Ling sighed, sat up and took out these unknown drinks from the plastic bag. Anyway, the total was close to 10,000 yuan, and he didn't know what they tasted like.

Open the bottle, let’s get started!
  No matter how long it takes to spend a night alone, you can still feel this loneliness. Plus, after listening to Rika's songs today, I can only get drunk and stop.

Mixing different wines together and drinking them was a great test of his drinking capacity. Chen Ling took a sip from each bottle and felt that his head gradually became lighter.

Oh, worry!

I don't know how much time passed, but suddenly there was the sound of a key opening the door at the entrance.

Why didn't you ring the doorbell?
  The person with the key, me, who else is there...

Chen Ling drank himself a sip of sake, and now he felt that the wine was slightly bitter.

There were footsteps behind me.

He was a little tired and didn't even bother to look back.

"Hey, Rika, good evening~"

The voice was soft and lazy.

The black-haired girl came to his side and met Chen Ling's somewhat distracted gaze.

It seems like he was drunk.

She glanced at the many wine bottles on the table and frowned slightly.

"Ling, why are you drinking so much?"

Chen Ling looked at the cold but eye-catching face not far away in front of him. He always felt that he was particularly kind and beautiful today, making people not want to look away.

Her bright and mesmerizing back and singing voice came to mind again.

"I've been in Tokyo for so long, but I haven't tried any of these wines yet... I'm going to try them all today, out of curiosity."

"Really?"

Chen Ling grinned and did not answer.

There was a faint smell of alcohol on his body.

It's not that he was drunk and unconscious, but he just didn't know what to say.

He picked up the red wine and took another sip, then handed the bottle to the girl in front of him.

"rika, do you want a drink?"

Chen Ling paused.

"Hey, no, Rika can't drink yet..."

He took back the wine bottle and was about to put it to his mouth, but the eldest lady in front of him suddenly reached out and took away the red wine bottle.

"what?"

Chen Ling didn't notice what was going on, and his mind was a little slow.

Until a shadow is cast in front of my eyes, accompanied by a familiar fragrance.

He tried hard to focus his gaze, but his lips were suddenly pressed against a piece of soft and almost roughly. A warm, sweet but bitter liquid entered Chen Ling's lips from the softness, and the bright red liquid flowed across Chen Ling's chin. .

Chen Ling gradually opened his eyes and looked at the face so close.

The black-haired girl opened her eyes, and those dark and beautiful eyes were enough to make Chen Ling fall into the intoxication of the world.

　Reference song: "Running toward the night" - yoasobi
  　　This song is also one of my favorites, and it fits Rika's state of mind very well at this time.

　　Tonight's plot is a major climax of the book, marking that the love between Chen Ou and the eldest lady finally rushes towards the night with no future together.

　　If you enjoy watching it, please remember to vote and support me monthly. Of course, you are welcome to tip me.

　　Woo hoo hoo, I want to see the monthly ticket exceeds 1,000, Qiuli Gao, otherwise I will... let you see it~
