After that, whatever you want to do will be very easy.

At that moment, Tomoyo walked over from a distance.

"Tomoyo, I've made the arrangements. Dad will be picking us up to go to Tokyo soon. Are you going to stay in Hikari-zaka Town?"

"No, I'll go to Tokyo with you."

"How about we meet up with our past selves, and chat for a bit while we're at it?"

"Do not."

Seeing the hesitation on her face, Masamune sighed inwardly.

In truth, Masamune could understand her feelings.

My dreams were shattered, and I drifted aimlessly for many years. I am indeed ashamed to face my past self.

"Let's go, Furukawa Bakery. Please lead the way, Tomoyo."

"Ah."

Chapter 375 Where are you going? I'll follow.

"Welcome... um!?"

As soon as Akio Furukawa finished speaking, he held his breath, feeling a sense of suffocation.

Standing outside the door was another version of herself and Sanae, dressed more "maturely" than the current version of herself and Sanae, but almost identical.

Aliens? Monsters? Aliens?

The movies and TV shows I've watched keep popping into my head, but more often than not, it's just a ridiculous idea.

Future people?

"Has technology advanced that much already? Time machines have appeared so quickly? Five years from now, or seven years from now?"

"Ten years from now." Future Akio Furukawa chuckled softly, stepped forward, and gently shook hands with his past self.

"Ten years later, I don't seem to have aged much."

The moment they shook hands, they suddenly felt an electric shock, and their memories flowed into each other's bodies simultaneously.

Immediately afterwards, a strong intuition that we were about to become one surged into my heart.

The two immediately let go of each other's hands and stood very far apart.

"So, when different versions of myself from different times come into contact with each other, they merge. But why does my intuition tell me that the merging is centered on you?"

Akio Furukawa unconsciously frowned slightly, then said again:

"Besides, aren't you being incredibly cold-blooded?"

“After my daughter got married, I deliberately maintained a relationship with her, which led to her death after childbirth.”

"I knew perfectly well that she was in poor health and that she was not like other normal families."

"I'm sorry." Akio Furukawa lowered his head and remained silent. "I didn't think things through back then."

"If you want to take Nagisa away, I just want to say: Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Upon discovering his ten-year-younger self looking wary, Akio Furukawa's eyes suddenly lit up:

"I was just thinking that I could see Nagisa one more time."

“However, now that you mention it, I suddenly thought of something: we could take Nagisa to the future, which would be equivalent to resurrecting her.”

"And then suddenly you have a daughter out of nowhere? Marry her off to a complete stranger? Impossible." Now, Akio Furukawa resolutely refuses.

Just then, another voice rang out from outside the shop.

"excuse me."

The group turned to look, and there stood Okazaki Shio at the door, curiously watching the two Furukawa Akios inside.

"grandfather?"

"Yes (X2)." The two responded at the same time.

The present-day Akio Furukawa glared fiercely at his future self. Although he disliked his future self and son-in-law, his granddaughter was innocent.

Moreover, Xiaoxi is very cute, and looks almost exactly like Nagisa when she was a child.

……

"President, I never thought we'd actually be able to gather all the time travelers."

"Yes, it is indeed very surprising."

"President, we only have 24 hours left. All the money we have is the new version of banknotes, which is useless in this 2006 timeline. What are we going to do? We can't all sleep under the overpass, can we?"

"No need for that. I'll explain it to you all once everyone is here."

In front of the Furukawa Bakery, more and more Musashino employees from the future gathered, and within just ten minutes, there were sixty or seventy people.

However, there is still a significant gap compared to the total number of CL's core creative team.

Sensing that no one else would be coming anytime soon, Masamune waved for everyone to gather around, and then said:

"Don't worry, everyone. I just called my dad in this timeline to explain the situation, and he's on his way with people."

"After that, the Hayase Group will arrange for everyone to go to their desired destinations."

"24 hours is both long and short. You can go wherever you want, but please keep it a secret, otherwise things will get out of hand."

"Although we can all go back after 24 hours, compared to 24 meaningless hours, I think this is a rare experience that we must cherish."

"Next, rest where you are, or go find the people who didn't come. Don't all gather together, and don't go too far."

"Yes, President!" everyone responded in unison.

As the crowd dispersed, only Mashiro and the other two remained by Masamune's side.

Upon seeing this, the Akio Furukawa couple, who were inside the store, quickly walked over.

"Thank you, President Hayase."

"You're welcome. What are your plans for the next 24 hours?"

“We’ll stay at the shop to help out, and when Nagisa comes home from school in the afternoon, we’ll see her and chat for a while longer.”

"Only met once? Aren't you planning to take her back to the future?"

Upon hearing this, Akio Furukawa hesitated for a long time.

Sanae Furukawa gripped the hem of her clothes tightly with both hands and said softly:

That would be too selfish.

"This world might just be an illusion," Masamune cautioned.

"…We will seriously consider it."

Akio Furukawa gently grasped his wife's hand and forced a smile as he said:

"There's still one day left, no need to rush into a decision."

"President Hayase, I have some information here. Just now, when I shook hands with my counterpart from this timeline, our memories simultaneously flooded into each other, and there was a feeling that we were about to merge."

"I see. This information is very useful. Thank you." Masamune nodded slightly.

"No, we should be the ones thanking them. No matter what, it's always good to see Nagisa again." Akio Furukawa paused, then said, "Let's go inside and sit for a while."

"No, you guys go ahead with your work. We need to have a short meeting to discuss what's to come."

"Alright, then we won't bother you any longer. Please feel free to come into the store and find us if you need anything."

"it is good."

After the Furukawa couple left, Masamune spoke again:

"I want to go home and see my family in this timeline. What about you? Since you've come all this way back to the past, is there anything you'd like to do?"

Rita glanced at Mashiro, smiled, and shook her head.

"In this timeline, both Mashiro and I are in England, so 24 hours is obviously not enough. Besides, we're only 7 years old now, two little kids, and there's not much to talk about."

"That's what I think too." Mashiro nodded slightly.

When she noticed that all three of them were looking at her, Tomoyo sighed softly.

"In many works, the purpose of traveling back in time is either to save people or to save the world."

"As for me, there's no one I want to save, and no place I want to go."

"So, wherever you go, I'll just follow."

This is true.

Masamune understood her thoughts perfectly; after all, this was just a short trip to ten years in the past, not a rebirth back to ten years ago.

They will leave in 24 hours, and making up for regrets is obviously not something that can be done in 24 hours.

"In that case, come home with me."

"Speaking of which, what do you think of Uncle Furukawa and Aunt Sanae's ideas? What would you do if you were in their shoes?"

“They’re all too kind,” Tomoyo sighed, glancing in the direction of the bakery. “Sometimes, being a little selfish isn’t so bad.”

"That's true."

Masamune nodded unconsciously.

If it were me, I would take Furukawa Nagisa away even if I had to steal her. Why bother with anything else?

"By the way, how are you feeling about the reward from K-On? Have you experienced any changes in your bodies?"

The production of CL was completed at the end of March and began airing on television in early April, while the production of K-On! 3 had just begun.

Therefore, the members of the K-On! 3 production team were basically selected from the best performers in CL.

Rita and Tomoyo are among them.

Mashiro, needless to say, like Masamune, has participated in every anime.

When she noticed him staring at her face while he was talking, Tomoyo felt inexplicably annoyed.
