In music anime, band girls won't be alone.

She didn't want to fall from one trough to another, not even halfway down a mountain.

She had to prove that she was capable of returning to her previous life and of climbing back to the summit.

She desperately needs success in her new environment to offset the setbacks she suffered while studying abroad.

She originally thought that it wouldn't be difficult to do these things.

She is quite confident in her competitiveness among her peers.

However, it now seems that apart from academic performance, she has little chance of gaining an advantage in other areas.

Even at Xiuhua High School, which places a greater emphasis on grades, her academic performance was not enough to garner her significant attention.

Unless she can consistently rank first in her grade in every exam.

Let's set aside whether she has the ability or not.

Even if it exists, it would require multiple tests to prove.

This will take a relatively long time.

This doesn't align with her desire to quickly prove herself.

So now, she's more focused on breaking through social barriers, getting involved in mainstream topics in the new environment, and then using that to become a central figure.

When she enrolled, the most talked-about event on campus was the school festival.

Organizing events is something she excels at.

When she was the student council president in junior high school, she often had to organize campus activities, which she was able to complete successfully.

Unfortunately, she missed the time to select the person in charge for the school festival.

Moreover, after reading Shirakawa Ze's proposal, she lost confidence and felt that she was not on the same level as him at all.

If you compete against them on the same stage, you definitely have no chance of winning.

What she didn't know was that even if she had been there, the homeroom teacher of Class A wouldn't have chosen her because she was too good at studying.

She wasn't discouraged when she missed the opportunity to be in charge, since the event hadn't started yet and there would always be a chance to showcase herself.

But reality dealt her another blow.

She discovered that everything about the event had been arranged by Shirakawa Ze, and she couldn't get involved at all.

Moreover, the students in the class also habitually rely on each other.

Even if I try to do something on my own initiative, my classmates will politely say, "Thank you, but it's not necessary."

She still didn't give up and began looking for other breakthroughs.

She noticed that everyone liked forming bands, and after school, the members of each band would usually hang out together, and their conversations during their free time were mostly about music or band-related topics.

So she started looking for bands that were short of members.

To be precise, it's a band that's missing a lead singer.

After all, the lead singer is the person who stands in the center during a performance, the most eye-catching, and the easiest to remember.

Unfortunately, there are no bands that lack a lead singer.

She temporarily put aside this idea and instead approached it from another angle—making friends with popular classmates to expand her influence and establish a strong presence.

This aspect hasn't been going very smoothly either.

Because the most popular person in the class is Shirakawa Ze, but this guy is different from the traditional popular contestants. He doesn't like to organize parties and usually hangs out with Takamatsu Akira whenever he has free time.

The worst part is that the other club only has him and Gao Songdeng, plus a club president who will never appear again.

On the one hand, he couldn't communicate much with others, and on the other hand, he couldn't join their clubs.

After all, such clubs don't give you any advantage in social situations.

The second most popular one is naturally Takamatsu Tou.

But this one is even more heavyweight.

In class, he rarely speaks to anyone other than Shirakawa Sawa.

Moreover, it's difficult to connect with her on the radio when you talk to her.

Or perhaps they're just too lazy to engage with you on the same wavelength.

The third most popular character is Goto Ichiri, who herself is unaware of her high popularity.

Chihaya Aine caught this.

She could tell that everyone in the class was actually quite interested in Goto Ichiri, but perhaps because they felt he was too mysterious and seemed like someone not to be trifled with, few people were willing to strike up a conversation with him.

But she wasn't afraid.

After trying to get to know him, she found that he was surprisingly easy to talk to, and their relationship progressed very smoothly.

However, the other person is not the proactive social type; in fact, one could say they are overly passive.

This has had a very limited impact on increasing her social influence.

Even though all three paths failed, she wasn't particularly upset. She encouraged herself and continued to try to find new ways.

until today.

After watching the performances of the End Band and the band that Gao Songdeng was in, she was completely lost.

She didn't even need to think to imagine how her three classmates who went to the live shows with her would describe the "spectacle" of those two shows when they got back to class the next day.

After hearing their stories, I'm sure all the listeners will regret not being able to be there in person.

Then the class's attention will completely shift to Takamatsu Akari and Goto Ichiri.

He became an outsider once again.

She sighed, turned over in bed, and felt an endless sense of confusion.

She pulled her phone out from under her pillow, glanced at the time, and saw it was already past 1 a.m.

She opened her social media app and looked at her friend list over and over again, only to find that she didn't know who to confide in about her current feelings.

She opened a video website, intending to watch some funny videos to ease her mood.

After all, she had to go to class tomorrow, and she didn't want to stay in this low mood, which would prevent her from sleeping and affect her performance in class tomorrow.

After scrolling through the posts of the bloggers she followed, she saw that Miaomeng had shared a trailer for the Pokémon series a few minutes earlier, along with the caption,

"Meow Meow, I've finally finished editing the first episode of the main series of Pokémon!"

"This is really not an easy thing!"

"Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow night at 8 pm!"

"Love you all, Meow Dream~"

As if possessed, she clicked on the other person's profile and then opened the private message chat box...

Volume 1: Chapter 132 Xiao Mu Rejects Su Shi

After staring at the private message chat box for a while, Chihaya Aine edited a few messages and sent them.

"Dear Miaomeng, I'm so sorry to bother you so late."

"But I really feel lost right now."

"I returned from abroad two weeks ago and transferred to my current high school."

"I am actively trying to integrate into my current environment, hoping to have a good start."

"But I always feel like something's missing, like I haven't really integrated into my current environment."

"Although I've made some nice new friends, I always feel like I'm hovering on the edge."

"I feel like I've tried my best, but I don't know why, I just can't reach my desired expectations..."

After sending the message, Chihaya Aine felt much better.

She didn't expect the other party to reply to her message, after all, the other party was now a video blogger with increasing popularity, and she didn't know how many private messages he would receive every day.

Therefore, she felt that her insignificant message would definitely be buried among a sea of ​​private messages.

That's why she chose to send this message.

After letting out a slow breath, as if releasing all the unhappiness in her heart, Chihaya Aine put down her phone, closed her eyes, and began to drift off to sleep.

"Buzz"

My phone suddenly vibrated.

Chihaya Aine was startled and quickly checked her phone.

Sure enough, it was a message from Miaomeng.

"Meow meow, good evening, little sister!"

"After reading your private message, I feel that our current state of mind is actually quite similar."

"Similar to you changing to a new learning environment, I am also trying out a new video style, which is like putting myself in a new environment."

"Even if the trailer's data is very good, I will still worry about whether it can maintain this data, and I will also worry about whether the new video style will be accepted by the audience?"

"It's normal to feel lost when facing an unknown new environment, after all, it's full of unknowns."

"Judging from what you told me, it's already quite good that you've maintained a positive attitude and made new friends, isn't it?"

"In my personal experience, if you feel lost, you might as well try setting a goal for yourself first."

"If you have a clear goal to strive for, at least you won't stray from the right path."

I hope my sharing has been helpful to you.

Goodnight, love from your Meow Dream.

Chihaya Aine stared at the information on the screen for a long time, then put down her phone and murmured softly.
