Joker's Band Game Story

Hearing everyone's commotion, Shuangshi realized that something seemed amiss.

Why is everyone so interested in my dating life?!

Isn't that obvious? Tsukimori is an all-girls school, and these young ladies rarely see men their own age. Now that they hear that the gentle Sawa has a boyfriend who looks like a prince charming, how can they not come and listen to the gossip?

In a daze, Souse found the photo of Amamiya, a photo taken in bed.

He wasn't wearing his glasses while in bed, exuding undeniable charm. He was turned to the side, looking at Shuangshi, with sunlight streaming in from the window behind him, making him appear exceptionally handsome.

This photo was taken that day when Amamiya was taking care of her. She thought it was beautiful at the time, so she asked Amamiya not to move and took a picture of the scene. Now, looking at this photo, the girls' shouts of "Hey!" are even louder.

After all... he really is handsome!

"Could he be a player?" "So handsome, I want him to dump me..." "He's so handsome, like a celebrity!"

Seeing that his friends seemed hypnotized, Shuang Shi quickly put his phone away: "Okay, okay, you've seen it already."

"Hey~ are there any other photos~? Any?"

"No~"

Shuangshi's brows furrowed involuntarily. Though he was still smiling, he was clearly no longer happy. Why is everyone so concerned about Ren?! Don't create more competition for me!

Unfortunately, Sosei underestimated the gossip level of Tsuki no Mori. The news that Sosei was dating a gentle and handsome guy spread quickly, and even some upperclasswomen had heard about it.

Perhaps this is the power of socialites; the description of Tsukimori Special Agent School is indeed accurate.

After being tormented by his girlfriends for half a day, Shuang Shicai sat down in a chair at noon, looking visibly relaxed.

She finally left behind those classmates who were giving her headaches.

Next to Sosei, Mu was calmly eating her bento.

Although she remained calm, her gaze kept glancing at Shuangshi beside her, after all, this was the first time she had seen Shuangshi act so...unladylike.

It's clear that she had a headache today because of what her classmates were doing.

"Is it with Amamiya?"

While Shuangshi was drinking water, Xiaomu suddenly spoke up, and her words almost made Shuangshi choke.

"So you found out too..."

"Ah."

Xiao Mu didn't say anything. After all, in Xiao Mu's eyes, the description of Shuang Shi's boyfriend was Amamiya Ren, and he also knew Shuang Shi, so it was normal for them to be together.

As for her concerns... indeed, the warmth of Amamiya made her feel somewhat afraid; it was sunlight she never dared to dream of.

'Should we go see Amamiya? It's been so long since I've seen him~'

'don't want.'

After suppressing a thought in her mind, Xiao Mu added, "There's not much time to go find him now."

Ah, yes, you're very busy right now.

Ignoring the voice in her head, Xiao Mu continued eating. She had indeed been very busy lately, so busy that she hadn't even had time to go to the horticulture department.

After school, she would go straight to the agency during club activities. These past few days have been the busiest time, and she has to make the most of every minute. Going to see Amamiya would only waste her already limited rest time.

No, she doesn't have much time to rest anymore.

She's been so busy with the band lately that she's been a bit overwhelmed. After school in the afternoon, she has to go to the agency to prepare for an interview, and then she has to do her last performance in front of the Budokan in the evening. As a band that is about to compete in the Budokan, they are very famous now, and they want to take advantage of this popularity to promote themselves quickly.

Even the advertisements outside have tags like "The craziest band in history! Coming to the Budokan in January!"

The thought of those advertisements suddenly filled Xiao Mu with a sense of unease, as if something was about to happen.

Xiao Mu instinctively clutched her chest, feeling a little uneasy.

"How are things going with Xiao Mu and her new band?"

Shuangshi suddenly asked, now she could talk to Xiaomu about the new band without any hesitation.

After all, she no longer cared much about Crychic; she had a new band and new people supporting her.

So now she can accept the fact that no one comes to Crychic anymore.

"do not know."

But Xiao Mu's answer made Shuang Shi look at her a few more times. "I don't know?"

Don’t know what?

Xiao Mu's answers are always so concise; sometimes, if you don't understand her thoughts properly, you simply won't know what she means.

Xiao Mu didn't intend to explain her answer. She just lowered her head, her fingers unconsciously fidgeting with each other, a small gesture that Shuang Shi often did.

"Really? You've already been playing with Xiangzi, so I guess that's fulfilled your wish."

"……Um."

Xiao Mu didn't say much, but she knew the truth: Xiangzi wasn't happy forming this band.

But she still intended to help Xiangzi because... Xiangzi felt he was about to break down.

If I don't help her, she'll only get worse faster.

But... even with me there, Xiangzi is still falling apart.

Well……

She couldn't help but think of Amamiya. If Amamiya were here, would Shoko have broken down more slowly?

Xiao Mu's feelings became even more complicated; she had a feeling that the future would have a bad outcome.

"Gui'an, Xiao Mu, so you've been here all along."

At that moment, a very ladylike third-year student walked over, and her eyes lit up when she saw Xiao Mu.

"Good day, Haru-senpai." "Good day, Okumura-senpai."

The two men rose and bowed to Okumura Haru, who returned the bow.

Haru Okumura noticed Sase Nagasaki and nodded slightly in greeting. She didn't know much about Sase and Mutsu, only that Mutsu often went to the gardening club to avoid Sase.

But she hasn't come to the gardening department recently, and when asked, she always says she's busy. However, seeing her with Sōse now means that their relationship has improved.

Seeing that Sōse's current mental state was completely different from what he had seen before, Okumura Haru felt relieved.

"You two are back to normal, congratulations."

"Thank you, senior sister."

Xiao Mu didn't intend to say much; she simply nodded slightly.

Several girls were chatting amongst themselves, and the three of them seemed to be getting along very well.

However, Shuangshi's originally relaxed environment was now filled with pressure, and she had to put on a young lady's demeanor when facing her senior.

After lunch break, she had to deal with her classmates, and it wasn't until school was over that she finally breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed completely.

"Shuang Shishi, you look so tired today~"

Aine, who had just brought over a drink, saw Sōse's relaxed appearance and couldn't help but sigh.

She could tell that although Shuangshi was sitting very ladylike, her body was obviously slouching, and she was leaning against the back of the chair instead of sitting upright with a certain distance between her back and the chair back as usual.

"is a bit."

Shuangshi responded with a smile, but her answer clearly revealed her exhaustion.

"Will Jin Yi Leng Yi Qi Ji Wu Jiu Si Jiu Ba Ling Meng Tian still rehearse?"

At this moment, Li Xi brought over the black tea that Shuang Shi had ordered and asked her if she could continue to participate in rehearsals today.

But Li Xi just couldn't bring herself to say anything caring; asking this kind of question was already her limit.

"No problem, the new song is almost finished, isn't it? I'd also like to hear Deng's new song."

Shuangshi glanced at the lamp next to her, who was playing with sticky notes with her head down. Those sticky notes were the ones that Lixi had given her last time.

However, when it came to gifts, she couldn't help but think of her hair tie, wondering why Amamiya would choose something like this for Ritsuki.

She didn't ask Amamiya, but the question did bother her for quite some time.

"It's all done. In that case, let's just wait for that stray cat to come back. I wonder where she's run off to again."

When Le Nai was mentioned, Li Xi sighed helplessly. She had no idea where Le Nai had gone to play again, and she could not find her at all.

She really is a free spirit, often coming whenever she wants, but she almost always comes to mygo's rehearsals, though she might be a little late sometimes.

After all, she doesn't like looking at her phone or wearing a watch. If she encounters something on the street, she'll get distracted, like when she sees her cat friends and tries to talk to them.

Speaking of Lena, she just walked into RiNG's coffee shop at that moment. She opened her eyes and looked at Lixi: "Matcha Parfait".

"Okay, okay, I'll put this on Liantou's head this time."

Li Xier Jiu⊙ wu⒊ 玐祁yiIII put this debt on Amamiya's head. After all, Amamiya had mentioned before that if Le Nai wanted to eat matcha parfait, he would put it on her tab. This time, Li Xier didn't ask Le Nai for anything, so he didn't think about buying her a matcha parfait.

But Sosei's eyes narrowed slightly. She had been wondering why Riki's way of addressing Amamiya had changed.

(PS: In this twelfth episode... what's the point of the twins being there besides creating conflict... it seems the twins are indeed useless.)

Chapter Twenty-Two: No Longer Believing in Xiangzi

Shuangshi cared about Lixi's opinion of Amamiya, and her eyes suddenly sharpened.

The number of philanderers has increased, and they're even from right next to you.

But she wasn't that worried, after all, Lixi's personality...

She can't even handle a lamp, how could she possibly handle Amamiya?

She didn't quite believe it.

So although she was a little concerned, she didn't say anything. She just took a couple more sips of black tea. Now that everyone was here, it was time to go to rehearsal.

Lixi quickly went to the dressing room to change his clothes, and then everyone started practicing the new song. After practicing for two hours, the group returned to RiNG.

"Everyone seems to be in a bad mood today," said Erjiuliao.

The group returned to the coffee shop and continued ordering food. Li Xi couldn't help but sigh, saying that their performance today was quite poor.
