I Am an Emperor in a World of Mixed Anime

Moreover, the voice sounded incredibly familiar.

"Are you coming or not?"

"No, I have to go home and take care of my younger sister later."

"Sister Xingge, are you sure it wasn't Hongxia who took care of you?"

"Mind your own business! Idiot!"

"bath?"

"Carry me."

Ichi Nijika's expression froze, as if struck by lightning, her face quickly turning deathly pale.

How could it be him?!

Isn't he Boqi's boyfriend? Why is he with his sister?

when……

Ijichi Nijika trembled all over. With her last bit of rationality, she went outside, gently closed the door, and held onto a hope that she couldn't even convince herself: what if that person just sounded like Pochi-chan's boyfriend?

What's the point of showing up and questioning at this point? It will only mess everything up and change nothing, right?

She backed down.

Torn between her older sister and her close teammates, she racks her brains trying to find a way to please everyone and prevent the situation from hurting anyone.

.........

That night, after a frank and open discussion, Ave Mujica reached a consensus, and the team atmosphere returned to its original harmony.

At the company's request, everyone sat together in the living room, each using a small notebook to recall and record their experiences with the band and friends, to be used as material for the later animations "Mujica" and "mygo".

Apart from some sensitive and private information that I am unwilling to disclose, there is nothing else I am hiding.

For the first time, Toyokawa Shoko realized that she didn't understand her best friend at all.

From Xiao Mu's words, she seemed to see a confused, helpless, empty, and shaky figure. It turned out that Xiao Mu had never felt happy about music and performance. She had only forced herself to give, to act, and to endure at her own request.

Toyokawa Shoko felt incredibly guilty for not noticing this sooner, even though Mutsu had noticed something was wrong with her shortly after she went missing.

As a result, when it was her turn, she couldn't understand Xiao Mu's true feelings...

The words he said to Su Shi more than a year ago have finally come back to haunt her like a boomerang.

It turns out that she was one of those people who had always only thought about herself.

She thought she had grown up and become a more mature and reliable Toyokawa Shoko, but in the end, all her achievements were pushing Komugi to an even more dangerous edge.

What has she been protecting all this time?!

Toyokawa Shoko suddenly felt a heavy pressure, making her feel suffocated.

Besides Miaomeng-san's dissatisfaction with the band's consistent appearance as masked puppets, Xiaomu's problems are equally noteworthy.

If it weren't for agreeing to the group's publicity plan this time, she would have had no idea that the Ave Mujica band, which she had personally built and thought was thriving, was actually already on the verge of collapse.

And she, all along, was completely unaware!

She couldn't even be sure if, besides Miaomengsang, who had just settled down, and Xiaomu, who had just been discovered to have serious psychological problems, there were other hidden, yet undiscovered, potential sources of explosive trouble waiting to explode at some point.

Toyokawa Shoko began to feel fortunate, fortunate that she didn't realize all this at the moment the building collapsed, and fortunate that she was once again on the verge of danger when that bad guy pulled her back and saved her, giving her another chance to turn things around.

Ding-dong-

The doorbell rang, startling Toyokawa Shoko out of her reverie and causing her to snap out of her daze and get up before anyone else.

"I'll go open the door."

Even if it was just for a moment, the girl felt ashamed and guilty and wanted to escape from the scene.

As a result, when she opened the door, Toyokawa Shoko was devastated to find that standing in front of her seemed to be another troubled girl.

In the world of girl bands, everyone seems to have some issues, and she is completely surrounded by troubled girls.

Looking at Ijichi Nijika standing dejectedly at the entrance of their dormitory, I had no idea what had happened to Nijika that had caused the once cheerful and sunny Nijika to become like this.

Ichi Nijika's lips trembled slightly, and finally she managed a forced smile.

"Sorry to bother you so late, I forgot my keys and there's no one in the dorm, so could I stay here for now..."

Ichi Nijika's voice grew weaker and weaker as she spoke.

She wasn't sure why she shouldn't hurry home now.

Perhaps she was afraid that taking the tram home wouldn't be as fast as her sister taking the bus home?

It's also possible that she hasn't figured out how to face her older sister yet.

Toyokawa Shoko remained silent for a moment, then took her hand and led her into the living room.

In the living room, everyone was concerned about Hongxia, who looked to be in a bad state, especially Miaomeng-san, who was closest to their band.

No matter how much people asked, Ichiji Nijika only said that she had forgotten her keys and refused to tell anyone about her sister and Higashino Akira.

Especially considering that the man's other girlfriend was also present.

There was nothing else to do but arrange for her to stay overnight. After all, given Nijika's condition, it would be difficult to let her go out alone.

"It's alright, you'll feel better after a good night's sleep. Hongxia, why don't you go to my room and rest for a while? Tomorrow will definitely be better."

Despite being devastated by the unexpected news, Toyokawa Shoko, as the leader of Ave Mujica, forced a smile, gently hugged Nijika, held her head to her chest, and softly comforted her.

Despite being a year younger than the other person, she was as tolerant as a mother.

Since her mother's passing, the girl, who had always treated others with a similar gentleness, experienced this feeling for the first time. She couldn't help but press her face closer to the other person, burying her face in their chest and hugging the blue-haired girl tightly.

Beside her, from an angle unnoticed by the other girls, the blonde-haired Hatsuka Mitsuko secretly gritted her teeth, jealous that this guy who had suddenly barged in was enjoying such gentle comfort from Shoko, and being hugged so tightly. Was she being polite?

Everyone's blonde, so why is he only hugging her?

Xiao Xiang was even prepared to allow her to stay overnight in his room.

That was an experience she had never had before. She only dared to sneak in and enjoy being surrounded by Xiao Xiang's scent when Xiao Xiang went out!

The initial effects of the triangular vinegar were very strong.

Just as she was about to suggest that the blond-haired guy who had run over from outside to gain Xiaoxiang's sympathy could sleep in her room, she suddenly seemed to think of something, her pupils contracted slightly, and her eyes widened.

Xiao Xiang's room was occupied by this blond-haired guy.

Where will Xiao Xiang stay tonight?

I can't exactly sleep in the living room, can I?

There are only a few rooms in the dormitory. Hai Ling and Miao Meng are no threat at all. Only he, her 'childhood sweetheart,' has the best chance with that green-haired childhood friend who grew up with Xiao Xiang.

A one-in-half probability!

What if we try to try again?

Sanjiao Chuhua's heartbeat quickened slightly, and her breathing became a little heavier.

Suddenly, I didn't feel so much dislike for that blond guy anymore.

Sanjiao Chuhua blurted out somewhat urgently, "Xiao Xiang, it's getting late, why don't you sleep in my room tonight..."

However, at the same time, Ruoye Mu also extended an invitation, "Xiang..."

The two spoke almost simultaneously. Before Sankaku Hatsuka could finish speaking, she froze, turning her head in disbelief to look at the usually quiet green-haired cucumber.

The Cucumber Sword Saint didn't even look at her; he was just quietly watching Xiangzi.

Seeing this, Toyokawa Shoko looked somewhat troubled, her gaze lingering between Hatsuka and Komu. After hesitating for a moment, she finally couldn't bear to leave Komu, whose psychological state was in greater danger, and fixed her gaze on Komu.

"Okay, thank you, Xiaomu."

As he spoke, Xiangzi turned to Chuhua and smiled, "Of course, thank you too, Chuhua."

Upon hearing this, Mikasa opened her mouth, a forced smile appearing on her face. She looked somewhat lost and dejected, not much better off than Ichiji Nijika. "N-nothing...it's nothing."

Upon witnessing this scene, Toyokawa Shoko instinctively felt uneasy.

After a moment of silence, he spoke with common sense, "Why don't we have Chu Hua come along too?"

After she finished speaking, she looked at Xiao Mu with an inquiring gaze, after all, it was Xiao Mu's room.

Fortunately, Xiao Mu did not object; she simply nodded slightly with a blank expression.

Although she was disappointed that she wouldn't be sharing a bed with Xiao Xiang alone, it was better than nothing. Sanjiao Chuhua smiled with delight and readily agreed.

Night was falling.

The girls gradually stopped writing their memoirs and went back to their bedrooms to rest.

Toyokawa Shoko lay on Komu's soft bed, with Komu sleeping obediently and quietly on her left and Hatsuka on her right.

Although she had tried her best to turn her back to Chu Hua and give Chu Hua some space.

But it was completely useless.

Toyokawa Shoko couldn't help but regret that she shouldn't have been soft-hearted back then, otherwise she wouldn't have had to experience this suffocating feeling of being coiled around by a giant python.

Chu Hua's sleeping posture is terrible.

Teacher Da Xiang kept sighing.

Completely unaware that behind her, Chu Hua, who was tightly hugging her, silently curled up the corners of her lips.

Triangle Chuhua: Thanks to the End Band for their support.

Because of the gap in their social status and her own timidity, fearing that she would scare the girl away and make it difficult for her to approach her again, Mitsumi Hatsuka maintained maximum restraint and dared not take any further steps.

That's fine, if I could hug Xiao Xiang.

The following morning, when the members of Ave Mujica got up one after another, Ijichi Nijika had already left the dormitory and returned to her home in Shimokitazawa.

The girl went home with a heavy heart, only to find that her older sister, who had said she would come back to take care of her, had not returned at all and had not come home all night!

For a moment, Ichiji Nijika couldn't help but get angry. She puffed out her cheeks and sat quietly on the sofa waiting.

We'll wait and see when my sister comes back.

Is this really that important?
