Both are unread.

Are you busy...?

Lan Qiansha pursed her lips.

The rain has clearly stopped, but the weather is still stubbornly refusing to clear up.

Seriously...

Arashi Chisara put away her phone.

Independence, confidence, courage.

We can no longer rely on...

The phone in her pocket vibrated slightly, and Lan Qiansha paused, taking the phone out again.

【Feel sorry】

It's all my fault for not noticing.

Shibuya Kanon sent two messages.

Lan Qiansha seemed to sense something and suddenly turned her head.

On the other side of the corridor, a familiar figure is rushing towards you!

Shibuya Kanon, panting heavily, stood in front of Arashi Chisato, her hands resting on her knees, panting heavily.

"Kane..." Arashi Chisa's eyes widened. "Why are you here?"

"Hahaha..." Shibuya Kanon gave a weak laugh and straightened up. "I just rushed here on a whim."

Gazing at her childhood friend, Shibuya Kanon's eyes were deep. "When I called you, I felt something was off about you. When I saw the stage, I realized the unease in my heart, and then I thought, Chi... maybe I'm just as uneasy as you are."

“So I came,” she said, taking Arashi Chisato’s hand. “Well… maybe I misunderstood, but I wanted to see you.”

Holding Arashi Chisato's hand, Shibuya Kanon said what she had always wanted to say, "I just want to tell you one thing: I've always respected you. You work tirelessly, and you never get discouraged or depressed when you encounter setbacks, so..."

Arashi Chisato lowered her eyelids slightly and pulled away from Shibuya Kanon's hand, "I still can't do it..."

She turned her back to Shibuya Kanon and said, "I have to work hard on my own."

Shibuya Kanon stared blankly at her retreating figure. "Huh?"

“I must leave you and work hard on my own until I can be confident.” Warm tears welled up in her eyes, and Lan Qiansha realized her weakness. “But when you came, I still felt relieved.”

"Xiao Qian..."

"You're not wrong, it's my weakness that's wrong." Wiping away her tears hastily, Arashi Chisara turned to face Shibuya Kanon. "I wanted to be independent, to do what you couldn't do here today..."

When Shibuya Kanon saw Arashi Chisato for the first time, she was a little at a loss.

Helplessly averting her gaze, Lan Qiansha whispered, "Don't let my appearance fool you, I'm actually very competitive."

“I’ve thought about that too.” Shibuya Kanon moved closer to her. “I’m always receiving your help. When I can’t sing, when I fail, it’s always you who helps me.”

That's because...you're here.

“Then we’re all the same,” Shibuya Kanon smiled. “We’ve worked hard together, watching over each other, observing each other. Back then…”

When they were all young.

On stage, even little Arashi Chisa made this declaration:

I want to do what Xiangyin can't do. Just like you love singing and can be passionate about something, I want to find something I'm passionate about too!

“At that time, I felt…you were so cool!” Shibuya Kanon’s eyes shone. “I must learn from you, I must sing with an unparalleled voice—thank you. It is because of your words that I can sing like this now.”

Shibuya Kanon stretched out her hand and made a victory sign.

The warm sunshine shone on me, and before I knew it, the sky had cleared up.

Arashi Chisara's eyes trembled. She had always wanted to be someone who could help Shibuya Kanon, just as Shibuya Kanon had helped her.

Kelan Qiansha never expected that from the very beginning, she was the strongest force supporting Shibuya Kanon...

The sun was there, never extinguished for a moment.

All we have to do is clear away the clouds.

Their fingertips touched, then they raised their hands high, and the two girls shouted in unison, "Go for it!"

The next moment, Arashi Chisara threw herself into Shibuya Kaon's arms, tilting her head up in her embrace, "Wait for me to come back."

"I wish you great success," Shibuya Kanon said, watching her retreating figure. "Chii."

The chairperson of the board of directors of Yuuka Girls' High School put down the winning poster and looked at the other piece of paper brought by the champion.

The sun sets in the west, on a stage by the sea.

"Thank you everyone!" The enthusiastic audience thanked them after the performance. "Now, let's welcome our guests for today! Our most anticipated group right now—Kizuka Girls' Academy Idols!"

Amid cheers from the audience, the curtain slowly rose.

Four girls appeared on the stage.

"I'll stay by your side forever~" Lan Qiansha began, her red eyes reflecting the flowing light.

I will never leave you.

Your gaze remains constant.

It gives me the courage not to give up.

The dynamic dance steps incorporated elements of samba. Led by Arashi Sensato, every movement was filled with passionate energy, and the melodious singing resounded, dancing in the sea breeze.

"Wow! W ...!"

The cheers from the crowd have already proven their success.

This is... the power of four people.

"Although it's not the first time I've seen it," even the usually demanding Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't help but exclaim, "both the dancing and the singing are impeccable."

“Hmm…” Eriri looked at the dazzling stage, “After seeing them train, watching their performance on stage gives me a different feeling.”

"It's roughly like..." Kato Megumi used the analogy, "Looking at the draft first, then seeing the final version?"

"Knowing their initial hardships, seeing their continuous growth, and witnessing their shining moment," Kobayashi Sora said, gazing at the stage. "This sense of participation is unparalleled."

In fact, they could be used as models to create light novels, comics, games, release albums, and hold concerts.

Kobayashi Sora's thoughts gradually became active. Before, she only wanted to prepare for the game's music, but after participating in it and witnessing their difficulties and efforts, hardships and struggles, Kobayashi Sora had more ideas.

Simply creating game music doesn't seem to be enough to unleash their potential.

If the method is appropriate... Kobayashi Sora shook her head.

Let's talk about these things later.

Now, just enjoy it.

Chapter 176 Unable to Refute

On the morning of the second Saturday of August, the sky was cloudless.

After finishing my trip to Kozushima Island, it was finally time for the summer doujinshi convention to begin.

Actually, today is already the second day of the doujinshi convention.

"So why did you come today?" Kato Megumi asked Kobayashi Sora curiously.

Kato Megumi wore a white shirt with puffy sleeves, also known as bubble sleeves, paired with a blue flared skirt and a light green scarf. Overall, she was completely out of step with the majority of otaku.

She's like that energetic girl who gets dragged from the pedestrian street to a comic convention by her boyfriend.

"The book about the voyage from Hashima will be sold today. It's a sort of spying trip," Kobayashi Sora replied. "Don't be fooled by how heartless Iori sounds. He still cares about his sister, so he might come back today. If we have the chance to make contact, we can gather some interesting information."

“That’s true…” Kato Megumi looked at the dense crowd, from the venue to the plaza, there were people everywhere. “There are more customers here than in the previous six days. I feel like the event will be over once everyone has entered.”

“This has indeed happened before. After continuous improvements, including the order of entry and the internal structure of the venue, we can now basically guarantee that everyone can enter before noon.” Kobayashi Sora took Kato Megumi’s hand and walked in another direction. “But there’s no need to queue today.”

As the largest doujinshi convention, it attracts over 550,000 attendees each time it is held. On the day of the event, many hotels near the venue are fully booked, and the overnight highway buses and trams in the days leading up to the event are also fully booked.

Because a large number of people use their mobile phones inside the venue, major internet companies will install temporary antennas at Tokyo Big Sight.

On the last day of the event, express buses, overnight trains, and Shinkansen leaving Tokyo will be packed.

Due to the large number of participants, numerous security issues arose. For example, some people would queue overnight outside the venue, which would disturb the surrounding residents or cause harassment from biker gangs. Therefore, queuing overnight outside the venue is explicitly prohibited.

Some cosplayers have also complained about being harassed and blocked by other participants outside the cosplay area, who then demand that they take photos with them. Taking photos with cosplayers outside the cosplay area is also prohibited.

This is what it means to be overcrowded.

To allow members of the participating clubs to prepare for setting up stalls and selling notebooks before the event starts, the organizers will issue tickets that allow them to enter the venue earlier than regular participants.

In other words, it was the club's admission pass for Aki Tomoya's trip to the sea from Hashima.

Of course, not everyone will use this to prepare a stall.

Some people also use this method to buy copies of popular club books first.

There have always been people buying and selling admission passes online at high prices. Some people also set up shell clubs to participate in doujinshi conventions with the aim of obtaining club admission passes, and then take the opportunity to buy up the passes and inflate prices to make a profit, such as... Kobayashi Sora.
