Early in the morning on the weekend, Uchiha Ryo woke up Hana who was still sleeping in, and sent her downstairs to Yukino's house. He himself changed into a set of clothes and prepared to go out...
"Good morning, Ryo-kun! It's really not easy to call you out~" Hayasaka Ai, who had changed into casual clothes, complained helplessly.
"Is that so?"
Hayasaka Ai puffed up her cheeks. "I can't run to your place casually like Chitanda! Who makes me the maid of the Shinomiya family? I have to work every day. Fortunately, Kaguya-sama agreed to my leave."
Yukinoshita and Uchiha Ryo are neighbors, and Chitanda has been staying at Yukino's house these two days, but Hayasaka Ai can only complete her daily work at the Shinomiya house...
"So the weekend is my time!!" Hayasaka Ai raised her head and twirled in front of Uchiha Ryo.
Although it's a bit bad to praise herself, Hayasaka Ai is very confident in her appearance, plus the cute outfit specially chosen today.
"How does it feel?"
"Mn, very beautiful. But compared to fashionable casual clothes, I still prefer your maid outfit."
Hayasaka Ai nodded. "What is this, liking uniforms?"
"Don't underestimate uniforms! Uniforms are the dream of all men. It can be said that any man has a dream of uniform temptation!"
"So Ryo-kun is a maid?"
Uchiha Ryo chuckled. "My hobbies are very broad, others are also fine. I can't describe it well verbally, why don't we go buy a few new clothes."
Thus, in order to upgrade Hayasaka Ai's XP system for Ryo, the two planned to go to the shopping center for a clothing update.
So today's main task is to treat Hayasaka Ai as a dress-up doll?
"Let me say it first, I can't listen to you for everything. My own opinion is also very important!" Hayasaka Ai stated her bottom line.
"Of course, am I the kind of person who would make you wear indecent clothes? Or you say a category yourself, and I'll pick."
Hayasaka Ai fell into contemplation.
"Category? Not to brag, but I can handle many styles. If I really have to say a category... I want to wear the magnificent costumes of a movie heroine!"
As a maid, Hayasaka Ai has been instilled with the concept of being a lower-class person since childhood. It is enough for her to follow behind Kaguya-sama as a servant.
But how could Hayasaka Ai not have a dream of being a heroine! She also wants to be the heroine in a movie, held in the palm of the handsome male protagonist's hand.
"Movie heroine..."
The two soon arrived at the clothing section of the shopping center, and Uchiha Ryo was also seriously picking women's clothing that met his taste.
"Mn, this one!" Uchiha Ryo quickly found the outfit he liked.
Hayasaka Ai took a step back. "Um... Although I am a professional maid, I don't accept Cosplay. And do anime movie heroine costumes count too?!"
Especially this kind of bright costume with a 100% rate of turning heads. I'm not a magical girl! Why wear this kind of thing.
Uchiha Ryo adjusted the glasses that didn't exist at all. "What magical girl, this is genuine villain-type clothing. Bold combination with dark style, plus small devil tail and bat wings, it suits you very well."
"Dark style is very popular. Who said only those standing in the light are the real magical girls!"
"Suits me... my foot! Rather than wearing this kind, it's better to buy a traditional magical girl outfit. Anyway, I refuse to wear clothes with fabric not much more than a swimsuit."
"Alright then, you said it."
Thus Hayasaka Ai was forced to put on a yellow-themed magical girl outfit... And Uchiha Ryo, in the spirit of exploration that young people all have, began to constantly change Hayasaka Ai into different styles.
Gyaru Hayasaka, professional maid Hayasaka, pure junior Hayasaka, tied-up magical girl Hayasaka, captured elf Hayasaka, captive female hero Hayasaka, trapped female investigator Hayasaka...
"Wait a minute! Isn't half of them wrong?" Hayasaka Ai walked out of the fitting room, finally changing back into her own clothes.
Uchiha Ryo held his phone saving photos.
"Mn, indeed half of them are my bad taste, sorry."
Hayasaka Ai crossed her arms. "As long as you know!"
Uchiha Ryo took the clothes to the front desk and separated the last four sets of clothes.
"I don't want the first three, thank you. Pack these four to go."
"Thank you for your patronage!"
Hayasaka Ai: "Mn???"
Uchiha Ryo chuckled. "Right, the first three are all ordinary clothes. Only the last four meet your requirements for a movie heroine!"
Carrying four sets of movie heroine costumes, Uchiha Ryo sat on the bench with a refreshed face, while Hayasaka Ai beside him ate a crepe with an unhappy face.
"Go back and change?"
Hayasaka Ai rolled her eyes at Uchiha Ryo, then ate up the crepe in big bites. "I suddenly have an idea. Take the clothes and follow me. Let's go to Shimokitazawa!"
"You wouldn't be thinking?"
"Anyway, I have to wear them sooner or later. I'll see what it looks like when others wear them first."
.....
Thus, inside the STARRY live house in Shimokitazawa, the Kessoku Band on the weekend was creating their second song and releasing the MV for their first song.
"Yo, Bocchi-chan, we came to see you."
Hayasaka Ai walked in swaggering, and then saw Goto Hitori immersed in writing lyrics, writing something furiously.
Following "Guitar, Loneliness and Blue Planet", the band's second song, "Gloomy Goodbye" with lyrics still by Bocchi, is about to be born.
But before that...
"Bocchi-chan, our MV has over five hundred views on the website now! Mn? Hayasaka-san and Uchiha-san are here, please sit."
Ijichi Nijika quickly found chairs and greeted the guests to sit down, and then chatted with the familiar Hayasaka Ai about the MV.
Hayasaka Ai took the phone. "Really amazing, over five hundred views..."
Bocchi turned her head and smiled awkwardly. Actually, after the video was released, Ryo came over to urge her to constantly refresh the video with her phone, striving to brush up the view count herself, and earn some ad revenue by the way.
While praising the MV as really good, Hayasaka Ai suddenly changed the topic.
"After all, you haven't signed a contract yet, which means the MV is just played as a free video to attract traffic and followers. Why not shoot another style?"
Nijika tilted her head. "Other styles? what style can an MV have?"
Hayasaka Ai smiled. "For example, your costumes don't have to be so uniform, but perform a semi-plot style costume change!"
Kita Ikuyo, who was listening in, raised her hand. "I've heard of it! For example, those idol girl groups will also change costumes and sing the same song, and sometimes the effect will be better!"
Change costumes?
Ijichi Nijika thought for a moment. "But we don't have any costumes either. It's not necessary to buy them deliberately just for shooting an MV."
