Entertaining Children

The addition of Xiao Yao solved the problem of the guitarist and made the band complete again, but there is only one week left until the school celebration performance, and the rehearsal time is still very tight, and the crisis of the band is still not completely resolved.

"Yang just joined us, and coordination is a big problem. We need more time to rehearse. But next week is the school celebration performance. The time is too tight, and there is too little time for school activities during the day. Only this There is simply not enough time for rehearsals, so starting today, we will practice extra at night. Do you have any questions?" Dean suggested to everyone.

As a team, we still have this collective consciousness. Everyone shook their heads and said that there is no problem with extra training at night, but at the same time, new questions were raised.

George said: "We have no problem with the time, but what about the venue? The door of the musical instrument room will be locked after school. We can't rehearse in the musical room at night, right?"

"Our garage is big enough." Dean frowned, gritted his teeth and said, "Go to our garage to practice at night."

"The neighbors will complain," Samion reminded Dean.

"Sammy!" Dean gave Sammy a dissatisfied look.

"What I said is the truth." Samion shrugged.

"I have an idea," Xiao Yao said, "There is a warehouse behind the supermarket where I work, and the space is large enough. Let's move the stacked goods and rearrange them, which should free up enough space for the band to rehearse. Moreover, there are a lot of things piled up in the warehouse, and the sound insulation effect is quite good, so it won’t disturb others. Mr. Johnson, the owner of the supermarket, is a good man. Let’s discuss it with him, and I think he will agree.”

"Yes, old Robert is a good man, we can ask him to help with this." Samien's eyes lit up.

"Agreed." The other three agreed.

"Okay, now that the time has been agreed and the venue has figured out a way, let's start tonight." Dean began to direct, "Sammy, you also used to work in Duobuy, you and Jan went to find it after school Old Robert, if he agrees, we will pull the instruments over. Mike, drive your dad's pickup truck out after school and help us pull the instruments, is there any problem?"

"No problem." Mike made an ok gesture.

"Then the next question." Dean waved his hand in satisfaction, and looked at Xiao Yao, "Yang, don't waste your time at school today, first familiarize yourself with the songs we are going to perform."

"Okay," Xiao Yao nodded, not listening to lectures and watching other things in class is no stranger to him at all. "Is there a sheet music?"

"Music score? Of course...no!" Dean looked at Xiao Yao and said, "The song we are going to perform is "Explosion" by the band "Daydream".

You can download it on your mobile phone and listen to it. There should be guitar scores picked up by netizens on the Internet. You can download it from the Internet and read it yourself. "

"The Explosion of Daydream? Why? Shouldn't the band perform their own song?" Xiao Yao looked at Dean with some doubts and asked.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Xiao Yao said this, the other four members of the band all looked at him in unison.

"Yang, are you mocking us?" George looked at Xiao Yao and said, "If we can write good songs ourselves, who would want to perform other people's songs? We are all still middle school students, and we haven't been able to write our own original songs yet." Come."

"Some middle school students can write their own songs." Xiao Yao replied in his heart, but wisely he didn't say it. It turns out that this is a band with no creative ability, no wonder the other members of the band are not very popular in school except the beautiful drummer Samien.

"What I mean is," Xiao Yao quickly raised his hands and said, "I can. Since I am now a member of the band, the songs I write are also the songs of our band."

"You...can write songs?" The rest of the people looked at Xiao Yao with their mouths wide open.

"Yes." Xiao Yao nodded.

"So, you can write a song to perform for us during the school day today?" Dean looked at Xiao Yao in disbelief and said.

"Of course not." Xiao Yao found that everyone looked at him as if he was looking at a monster, and quickly shook his head, "I wrote it before, but it hasn't been published. It just happens to be used for the band's performance."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Xiao Yao with normal eyes.

Samien asked curiously: "What kind of song? Can you sing it for us first?"

"Let's listen to it at night." Xiao Yao shook his head. "I need to recall some details of the song I wrote before. When I was in school during the day, I thought through the details of the song and wrote the score. Let's read the score during rehearsal at night." .” In fact, Xiao Yao hasn’t decided which song from his previous life to play with Goldfinger yet.

At this point in the discussion, the lunch break time has already passed halfway, but no one has had lunch yet. Now that the plans behind the band have been discussed, everyone left for lunch.

Xiao Yao spent two classes in the afternoon, and finally selected "immortals" by falloutboy in his previous life as the band's performance, and wrote out the performance scores of various instruments separately.

After school in the afternoon, as soon as Xiao Yao left the school gate, he heard two car horns. When he looked up, he saw Samion driving her second-hand car waiting at the school gate.

"Are you waiting for me?" Xiao Yao pushed the bicycle to the driver's window of the car and asked Samien who was sitting in the driver's seat.

"That's right," Samion nodded. "Didn't it be agreed that I would go with you to find old Robert and borrow the warehouse for rehearsal after school? I'll drive you there together."

"But my bicycle?" Xiao Yao looked at the bicycle he was pushing with some embarrassment.

"Just stay at school, and it won't be stolen." Samion glanced at Xiao Yao's bicycle and said unhappily. I also recalled the scene when Xiao Yao saw Xiao Yao's bicycle the next day after beating Joey.

Early the next morning after Xiao Yao finished beating Joey, Samien was about to drive Xiao Yao to school as usual, but saw Xiao Yao push a bicycle and go out.

"Where did this bicycle come from?" Samien asked Xiao Yao suspiciously.

"I went to the flea market to buy it after school yesterday." Xiao Yao replied with a smile, "So I will ride to school from now on, so I don't need to bother you."

"Why? Is it because you think riding in my car will cause trouble?" Samion looked at Xiao Yao very unhappy and said.

After Xiao Yao beat Joey, there was a rumor in the school: It was because Joey saw Xiao Yao going to school in Samien's car that day and was very upset, so he went to trouble Xiao Yao. As for Xiao Yao's actions, in Samien's eyes, it was obvious that she was troublesome and wanted to stay away from her.

"Of course not," Xiao Yao shook his head and said, "You can pick me up on the way to and from school, but when I'm going to "buy more" to do a part-time job, you can't let you pick me up by car? Because of the part-time job, I need a means of transportation , That's why I bought this bicycle. Since I have already bought a bicycle, I can just ride it to and from school, and I won't bother you."

"Whatever!" Samien turned his head, slammed the accelerator, and drove away.

Although Xiao Yao's explanation was very reasonable, since then, Samien was still very upset every time he saw Xiao Yao's bicycle.

Seeing Xiao Yao put his bicycle back into the parking shed on campus and walk out again, the corners of Samien's mouth slightly curved up.

"What is this?" Samien watched as Xiao Yao opened the co-pilot's door and got in the car. There were several sheets of paper stacked together and rolled into a tube in the schoolbag on the slant, and he was curious. opened the mouth. Immediately, he caught a glimpse of several parallel lines inside the paper tube, which looked like staves, and before Xiao Yao could answer, he asked again: "Did you really write out all the scores of the songs to be performed this afternoon? "

"Yes." Xiao Yao nodded.

"Can you drive?" Sammy asked.

"Yes." Xiao Yao continued to nod.

"Okay, then you drive, I want to read the music score." As Samion said, he began to unfasten his seat belt.

"But I don't have a driver's license." Xiao Yao smiled wryly.

"What?" Samien stopped undoing his seat belt, looked at Xiao Yao in amazement, and said, "You mean you don't have an international driver's license, it's just a document, why don't you do it?"

"No, I mean, I don't even have a Huaxia driver's license." Xiao Yao spread his hands, "Huaxia's law stipulates that the driver's license test can only be taken at the age of eighteen, instead of sixteen as stipulated by American law. I am only seventeen, so No driver's license."

"You said you could drive without a driver's license? Are you kidding me?" Samien looked at Xiao Yao dissatisfied.

"No, I do know how to drive. I have learned it, but I am not old enough to drive without a driver's license." Xiao Yao continued with a wry smile. Driving is a skill that Xiao Yao already knew in his previous life.

"****!" Samien patted the steering wheel unwillingly, and had no choice but to start the car. She dared not let Xiao Yao drive without a license.

After coming to "Buy More", Samien and Xiao Yao went to the black boss Robert Johnson and asked to rent the warehouse for band rehearsal. Whether it was the former Samien or the current Xiao Yao, they performed very well in the supermarket. Old Robert liked these two young people very much, so he agreed generously.

With the consent of old Robert, Samien immediately called Dean. After Dean received the news, he immediately arranged for the other two partners to start transporting musical instruments and equipment here. Xiao Yao and Sami En went directly to the warehouse and began to move the goods to clear the place for the band.

It didn't take long for Mike to arrive at the warehouse in a blue pickup truck carrying musical instruments and equipment. Then, three of Samien's girlfriends also drove over to help. Although the three of them didn't know much about the installation and adjustment of musical instruments, it was also possible for them to help move the goods in the warehouse.

There are a lot of people and strength. At about 6:30 in the afternoon, the goods in the warehouse have been re-stacked, freeing up a lot of space, and the various instruments and equipment brought by the band have also been installed and adjusted. .

"It's finally done." Dean exhaled, looked at the watch on his wrist, and asked everyone, "Everyone go home for dinner, and then come over?"

"There's a fast food restaurant next door, so why don't you just buy takeaway and eat it over there." Samion said, "Yang has already written all the scores of his songs, everyone can watch them while eating, familiarize yourself first, and start rehearsing immediately after eating .”

"Okay, I agree." Mike and George said immediately. They heard that Xiao Yao had already written the score, and they couldn't wait to read it.

"Then let's go buy dinner and let's talk about what we want to eat." The three girls who were not members of the band volunteered.

"Thank you, I want to eat fried noodles." Dean was the first to speak, and he ordered Huaxia food.

"I want fried dumplings." George followed closely.

Several people took turns reporting the food they wanted to eat. I don't know if it was because of Xiao Yao's relationship or Dean's leadership, but they all ordered Huaxia food.

"Well, I hope there are Huaxia restaurants nearby." The three girls sighed helplessly.

"Yes, go left when you go out, and there is a restaurant when you turn right at the third intersection. It tastes good." Xiao Yao reminded. He has already visited the nearby area, and Huaxia's restaurants are naturally the focus of investigation.

"Thank you." The three girls greeted each other, and they left the warehouse together, and went to buy dinner for everyone at the restaurant Xiao Yao mentioned. (To be continued.)
