"You...how are you here?" came from Gein who suddenly stuttered.

"Why can't I be here?" Zhou Yu asked him back.

"I thought... the note you left meant..." Gein blinked in confusion.

"The meaning of the note I left is literally." Zhou Yu looked at the puppy in his arms, "I took Pan Bao for a full body checkup, and got vaccinated along the way."

"So you're not planning to distance yourself from me?"

Zhou Yu raised her eyebrows, "No, I don't plan to break up with you just yet—even if you just told me to get out."

"...That was a misunderstanding." Gein hesitated for a second, trying to forcibly turn the page, "I didn't even recognize it was you, why are you dressed like this?"

Zhou Yu's dress is very different today. He is wearing an oversized plaid shirt, a pair of ripped jeans with rolled up trousers, and a pair of white canvas shoes. His black hair is tied back, and his outstanding appearance is blocked by a baseball cap Come on, no wonder Gein didn't recognize anyone at first.

Hearing this question, Zhou Yu showed that subtle expression again.

"God, are you lame, Gein." Daniel, who was sitting by the side, couldn't help but said.

"Wait a minute..." The young man narrowed his eyes and finally found the key to the problem, "Are these all mine?"

Zhou Yu leaned on the sofa and didn't answer, but Gein had already seen the colorful head of John Lennon on the T-shirt from under the shirt he was wearing.

"Are you showing off to us?" Daniel couldn't help attacking him, "Honestly speaking, your act of pretending to be stupid is really low."

Gein couldn't help giggling, because the eclectic "draping" scene last night appeared in his mind.

If the outside has not been changed, can it mean that the inside has not been changed?

"Have you noticed that he is very similar to that dog?" Keyboardist Bowman suddenly said to the black drummer beside him.

Daniel looked at the man and the dog who were smiling foolishly, "...I want to hit him even more."

"It's not fair!" Nair, who had been standing behind Gein and seemed to have been ignored by everyone, suddenly said.

"Even if this gentleman is familiar with all of you, he can't choose the lead singer in such a hasty way." The boy ignored the suspicious sparks between Gein and Zhou Yu, and firmly said in the eyes of everyone, "I To come here from thousands of miles, at least one chance to sing.”

"Well... Joey, what do you think?" Old Morgan turned his head to look at Zhou Yu.

"Let him sing." Zhou Yu replied calmly, "After he finishes singing, you can choose between me and him."

"Oh, that's not kind, we've already decided it's you." Daniel shrugged, "I don't see why it's necessary."

"Don't kill the enthusiasm of the children." Boman elbowed him.

"That's still not fair, you already have preconceived opinions." Nair said.

"Then what do you want, kid?" Old Morgan asked, turning his head.

"I think the audience should be allowed to choose." Nair said, "We sing a song on the stage and give it to the public to judge. Each head counts as one vote."

Everyone at the scene was silent.

This is for the band to choose a lead singer that suits their own style, and it's not a singing competition. The members are not allowed to choose by themselves, but the audience is allowed to choose?

What the hell, anyway, Daniel has already eliminated this ignorant kid a hundred times in his heart.

"Yes." Only Zhou Yu sat on the sofa and agreed calmly.

"Since Joey thinks it's okay, let's make it so." Old Morgan nodded, "Son, what do you want to sing? Do you need an accompaniment?"

"It's an original song, and I can accompany it myself." Nair patted the guy behind him, looking very proud.

"Okay, the stage is there, when you are ready, you can go up at any time." Morgan said.

The boy walked over confidently.

Several band members came to the outside of the arena as if watching the excitement, and sat in the last row of scattered seats.

Gein squeezed next to Zhou Yu as a matter of course, and struck up a conversation with the dog in his arms.

"You can sing, why didn't I know?"

"Where did you come from just now?" Zhou Yu asked without answering.

"My house." Gein replied without thinking.

Then he belatedly felt something was wrong.

"No, I mean...he came to see the house and I just gave him a ride...nothing happened between us."

"Heh." Zhou Yu sneered back at him, "Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?"

"……Um?"

Zhou Yu didn't bother to talk to him.

Gein turned to the other side and asked Daniel, "What did he mean by what he just said?"

The black drummer also turned sideways, imitating his way and whispering, "Idiot, can't you see that the boy surnamed N on the stage looks at you differently? I can assure you that he is interested in you."

"You mean Neil."

"Otherwise? Who else has the surname N here, except "Nobody"?" Daniel made a cold pun.

Gein was a little puzzled, but Neil's performance had already begun.

As soon as the boy opened his voice, he attracted the audience.

His voice is very clear, with some nasal sounds, it sounds very immature and youthful, which is what people often call "the voice of first love".

It's just right for the song he sang.

"When I woke up, I remembered that it seemed to rain last night..."

"...a small unknown flower bloomed in the garden, reminding me of you..."

"...you in the distance, have you seen that rainbow..."

"Ah, winter will pass, and my spring has come..."

"Pack up your bags, bid farewell to your hometown, take the first train, and head for the distance with your dreams..."

When the chorus was sung, Neil began to look in this direction frequently.

"Did you see it?" Daniel pulled him back, "This is blatantly flirting with you, just like a peacock spreading its tail, do you understand what I mean?"

Gein couldn't sit still after being told by him, and couldn't help looking at Zhou Yu who was on the side.

The other party looked at the stage expressionlessly. To be honest, it was difficult for Gein to see his emotions from his expression.

"Are you angry, Joey?" he asked cautiously.

"Why am I angry?"

"Uh... because of me?"

"Oh?" Zhou Yu turned his head, "What did you do wrong?"

Here comes the problem, and I don't feel like I've done anything wrong.

Gein thought for a while and replied, "Don't be jealous of Nair, I have nothing to do with him."

"..."

Still owed.

Zhou Yu turned his head away.

"So you're really going to rent the loft to him?"

"Uh... if there are no accidents?"

Daniel showed an unbearable expression behind Gein's back.

"But I..." Gein still wanted to explain a few words.

"It's almost my time." Zhou Yu walked away from the chair.

Gein showed a depressed expression.

"My words are in vain, brother." Daniel inserted a knife at the side, "You really don't know how to read words and expressions."

……

After the song was over, Neil bowed on the stage, and then walked to Gein with small steps like a proud little rooster, looking at him expectantly, "How is my singing, idol? "

"Don't call me an idol." Gein scratched his face, embarrassed to say that he didn't listen carefully just now, "You sing very well..."

"Your voice is very talented and has a wide range. If you practice more, you can sing a lot of songs." Boman, who was the only one listening to the song seriously, commented pertinently, and relieved Gein by the way.

"Thank you."

Because after Zhou Yu left, there was an empty seat next to Gein, so Nair naturally sat in that seat and started chatting with them familiarly.

"Have you ever heard that little brother sing? How is he singing?"

"I've never heard of it." This is what Gein wanted to know, so he turned to look at the two people aside.

Only two empty stools remained.

The keyboard player Bowman and the drummer Daniel came to the stage at some point. One stood behind the keyboard and the other sat behind the drum kit, looking serious.

What the hell?Gein froze for a moment.

"Have they rehearsed in advance?" Nair panicked.

Gein hangs out with these two people every day, so he naturally knows that they don't have time to rehearse with Joey, and this can only be done on the spot.

But the problem is-

When did they get so in harmony.

In fact, no, after Zhou Yu spoke, both Daniel and Boman were a little surprised, and the accompaniment prepared in their hands failed to fall.

Zhou Yu didn't sing the popular pop songs from the audition just now, but sang a melody that no one had ever heard before.

The young man stood in the center of the stage, holding the microphone stand. The black peaked cap covered half of his face, and people could only see the diamond-shaped lips slightly parted, revealing the white teeth and a little soft tip of the tongue .

"Obviously you lit the fire first, how could you have the heart to extinguish it..."

The ASMR-like low and hoarse voice was clearly transmitted to everyone's ears through the microphone, as if receiving a message from a familiar person on an old-fashioned radio station, gradually becoming clear from the blur in memory.

Nair saw the person beside him who was sitting slack suddenly sit up straight, looking at the stage without blinking.

"You broke the door and left me naked..." The young man took off the hat on his head, covered his chest, held the microphone with one hand, and slowly closed his eyes.

"You brought me down and you brought me up again."

"You put your lips on my face and breathe into my chest."

"My soul drifted along, came to heaven with my imagination, and then you left me, oh~you left me~"

The melodious long sound is like a song, and even the ending sound is still very powerful, which can really be called the lingering sound.

If Nair is the new green shoots in the morning, then Joey is the melancholy scarlet rose at midnight. He never hides the strong emotions in his singing, nor does he fake the illusion of hope. Just be intoxicated by yourself.

But the emotional singing voice was so existential that no one could listen to him as background music. At some point, everyone in the bar stopped what they were doing and turned to look at him.

Perhaps this is the natural protagonist.

"You said that I don't understand what's in your heart, I just know that next time I will make you unforgettable."

After Zhou Yu sang this sentence, he suddenly let go of his hand, and the hat in his hand fell to the edge of the stage.

Immediately, some people rushed forward, everyone scrambled for the ordinary peaked cap, and some people just reached out and rubbed the young man's bare ankle secretly just to fish in troubled waters.

And Zhou Yu had already taken the wheat off the shelf and left that area.

Daniel took the opportunity to cut in on the drums.

"Baby, you think I'll let you go, you're just too naive."

"You try to hide it but I know, your heart already belongs to me."

"I make you drunk and dreamy, I make you feel like a new life."

"I'll put my foot on you, no matter how noble your words are."

"Forget what you think in your heart, tonight's night is still very long."

There is a repetition of rhythm and melody here, and Boman tried to add the sound of electric piano.

The thick drum beats and the light piano make the vocal part more three-dimensional, but there is still something missing. Behind each pause, there is a lack of foreshadowing and echo. If this part can be made up, it will would be the perfect song...

He knows how to do it, just like he wrote in the score, and add a few more muffled sounds that stop...

That was their first night.

Gein, who was sitting in the last row, stood up and started to run towards the stage like no one else was there.
