[Black Basket + April] Raiders

?The summer monsoon coming in from the Pacific Ocean brought continuous rain to the Tokyo area, and the originally hot and dry weather became cooler after the rain.After seeing Rifeng's strength, the members of the Diguang Playing Club began to train harder.The day of the show is getting closer, but Teiguang’s bottleneck has not yet been broken through, and the cooperation between the performers is still not tacit enough. Even though the repertoire has been performed many times, there are constant mistakes, and the state is good and bad.

"It's almost the day of the performance, and this level is not enough!" Ayase Mukari sat in front of the window and looked at the light rain falling outside the window through the glass window. The raindrops made a pattering sound when they hit the leaves .

"The running-in period has gradually entered the state." Ayase Hatsue held a book in his hand and sat in front of Ayase Mukara. Recently, his words have become more and more concise, and he spends his free time researching about symphony wind music conductors. This stuff is up.

"Although it's not obvious, I can also feel that everyone has begun to consciously cooperate with others." Kise Ryota sat next to Ayase Mu, with her hands on her chin.

"I heard that the conductor of the performance department seems to be coming to guide you recently, but I just heard," Ayase Hatsu finally raised his head and glanced at the two people opposite him, "Because he performed well last time, but he is now It seems that whether we will come to know if we are not in Tokyo probably depends on our performance in this exhibition.”

"It's really annoying..." Ayase Murui frowned, with a hint of listlessness in his tone, "I don't like this kind of conductor, who comes back when he practices well, and stays away when he doesn't practice well."

"There's nothing I can do if I don't like it. Maybe I won't be a conductor for too long." Ayase Chu said lightly with downcast eyes. He has no obsession with the position of band conductor. It all depends on how things will develop in the future. Will not force.

Ayase Twilight understood what he said, did not continue to speak, and continued to look at the rain scene outside the window dully.Kise Ryota was also silent, staring at the chalk writing on the blackboard in a daze.

The day of the performance came faster than expected, and it has not yet fully reached the height expected by Ayase. The team's cooperation has gradually improved, but it is not perfect.

As expected, Rifeng only sent the second team to participate in the competition, but what surprised Diguang was that their performance was better than the previous exchange, probably because they didn't take it seriously during the exchange.

Sitting on the stage, Ayase Twilight was in a very calm mood. No matter how she performed in this performance, it was not a bad thing for her.Even if the performance is unsatisfactory, then the conductor teacher who was originally planning to guide everyone probably won't come.

"Little Ayase looks very good." Kise Ryota smiled and looked sideways at Ayase Mulan who was sitting next to her.

"Well, no matter what the result is," Ayase Mume paused, glanced at Ayase Chu who was standing on the podium, then looked up at the bright lights on the stage, and smiled softly, "No matter the result is good or bad, I will are acceptable.”

Kise Ryota looked at her calm face, smiled slightly, and said softly, "Me too."

Ayase on the podium raised her hand and made a gesture to get everyone ready.Ayase Twilight and Kise Ryota picked up the saxophone in unison, closed their mouths on the mouthpiece, and locked their eyes on Ayase Hatsune's raised hands.

No matter what the result is, I am willing to accept it with you.

The beginning part went smoothly, but in the middle of the track, I don’t know if it was due to too much pressure or too many things in my mind. The solo of the flute group was wrongly beat. Because of the wrong beat of the flute group, the other groups were at a loss after being at a loss , resulting in a small mess in the middle of the track.It was not until the trumpet solo sounded that everyone re-entered the right measure.

Therefore, this show probably failed.

On the podium, Ayase Hatsune quietly waved the beat, smiling and looking at everyone in the audience with gentle and encouraging eyes.The eyes of Raiko Fujiwara, a third grader in the flute group, gradually blurred as she looked at the music score. Tears welled up in her eye sockets and fell down with a thud, hitting the silver flute.

Ah, that's the end of this performance. I obviously thought that the result would be acceptable, but my heart still felt a little sore. Brother, how about you, brother?Will you be sad, will you be disappointed with everyone, you obviously worked so hard and paid so much.Ayase Mukari looked up at Ayase Hatsue who kept smiling on the podium, and could play the melody without looking at the score.

Kise Ryota closed his eyes, trying not to pay attention to the gradually cooling eyes of everyone around him, and felt a slight pain in his heart.

At the end of the repertoire, the performance department of Teiko Middle School exited in an orderly manner.

Minister Zaharuhara's eyes were red, he tightly held Raiko Fujiwara's hand, and whispered in her ear, "Don't cry, don't cry out here."

Raiko Fujiwara bit her lower lip fiercely, tears rolling down like broken pearls.

The atmosphere of the whole team is very dignified, and everyone's mood is a little low.After the last player walked into the lounge of the Teiko Playing Department, Raiko Fujiwara of the flute group finally couldn't help crying loudly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, everyone."

With extremely apologetic crying, Fujiwara Reiko knelt on the ground, holding her own flute in her hand.

"Don't say sorry." Early Haruhara put down the clarinet in his hand, walked up to Fujiwara, hugged her shoulder, and buried his cheek in her shoulder, obviously to persuade her to enlighten her, before he said the next sentence, he But he couldn't help crying, sobbing softly.

Ayase bowed her head and thought for a while, then slowly walked up to them and patted their shoulders, "Don't say sorry, don't think this is our last performance! We still have a national competition next semester!"

"But... But why not talk about a national competition if you can't even do this kind of performance well!" Keiaki Kurosawa from the trumpet group said a little emotionally, his eyes were a little red.

"Do you think you are not doing well enough?" Ayase looked at him calmly, then looked around at everyone in the lounge, and then said, "Have you lost confidence in yourself in the Teiko performance club? Do you remember the enthusiasm when you came out of Rifeng Middle School that day? You may not feel it, but I can hear it most clearly when standing on the podium. The tacit understanding between you and the cooperation between each group. Give us more With a little time, we can do it too. Rifeng’s level, I have noticed that you have been in great shape these days. It was just a little accident tonight, so you were hit so hard that you couldn’t stand up? "

"Really, can we really reach the level of Rifeng?" Xiangzhu Caizi of the saxophone team asked softly with some expectation in her pupils.

Ayase smiled and nodded towards her, "This semester is coming to an end, if everyone is willing, I want to have a week of training during the summer vacation, are you willing?"

"Yes, the tuba group obeys the command arrangement."

"The euphonium group also agrees."

"The sax group agrees."

……

"Then," Ayase looked around at all the players in the waiting room again, "Please cheer up and look forward to the next national competition together. No matter how far we can go at that time, I hope more than the result." Everyone will never forget the time we spent working hard together in the wind instrument department."

The sky is full of stars, the day of the performance is a sunny day, if you don't think about the result of today, then such a day is actually a great day.

"Brother, I think you are now very serious about taking everyone further." Ayase Twilight said softly.

"Of course." Ayase first lowered her eyes and smiled. In fact, her heart was very painful. After paying so much for the performance, it ended like this. If there was no wrong shot by the flute group, tonight's performance should be quite good.

"Although I don't know how long I can go, but I don't regret joining the performance department at all, and I said this without some personal reasons," Ayase Twilight blinked at Ayase Hatsune, with a sly smile on his face, Turning to look at Kise Ryota who was walking on the other side, "Where is Kise? Will you regret it?"

"Of course not. The time I entered the performance department is probably the best time in my freshman year." Kise Ryota turned her face sideways and smiled seriously.

Ayase Twilight turned around and smiled, it's good like this, if everyone won't regret it.

"Where do you think is a better place to go for the summer training?" This semester's affairs are probably over, and Ayase is thinking about starting to plan for the summer and next semester, "Beach?"

"Well, the beach is nice." Kise Ryota thought about going swimming after training.

"I also agree with the beach, you can discuss it with Zaochun-senpai." Ayase Mukari nodded, the seaside scenery is very good, she likes it very much.

The moon was crooked, covered by clouds and lost its brilliance, the street was quiet, and the street lamps stretched their dim shadows very, very long.

After the performance, the brass band still practiced as usual, with an ensemble every two days.Everyone's lost emotions gradually recovered, and the experience at Rifeng and the experience of the Tokyo Wind Music Show were deeply rooted in everyone's hearts.

During the exam week, everyone has entered the exam preparation stage, and club activities have stopped.

After the stressful final exams, the first summer vacation at Teiko Middle School came. ?
