Aspiring to be a girl in a band

"I see."

Su Shi nodded to Arakawa Kirika.

Arakawa Kirika happily got up from Sose's lap and walked towards the door.

But suddenly, Arakawa Kirika turned back.

She pinched Su Shi's cheek with her fingers, as Su Shi was still in a daze.

Su Shi glanced at her listlessly.

Arakawa Kirika looked into Suze's eyes and said very bluntly.

“I… I think I might like you a little, Ms. Su Shi.”

……

Even after Arakawa Kirika completely disappeared, Su Shi was still unable to recover from the shock she had just experienced.

The thought that she would have to do things that would hurt everyone made her even more upset.

Recalling Arakawa Kirika's words when she left.

She clenched her teeth.

I think I might like you...

Who would be happy about such pointless talk?

"It's rare for that guy to be late."

Li hope crossed her arms and looked at the rain outside the window, feeling a little uneasy.

"As expected, Soyo, is she still angry? It's all my fault. I shouldn't have sung 'Spring Shadow' that day."

Deng sat blankly in his seat, staring at the wall in front of him, his eyes somewhat dazed.

As usual, Aiyin comforted the lamp.

"It's okay, I don't think Su Shishi is really angry. She even smiled at us when she left that day, so Deng should cheer up too, right, Le Nainai?"

Lena looked at Aine's face, thought for a moment, and then nodded.

"Really... what time is it?"

Lixi paced back and forth indoors. Although Aiyin had been trying to calm everyone down, Lixi just couldn't calm herself down.

Because of... her current situation, she couldn't help but think of that scene from the past.

Even the pattering rain outside the window was so similar.

“There are no memories here. Aine, what about you? Weren’t you closest to her? Has she replied to you?”

Upon hearing this, Ai Yin's expression became somewhat awkward. She first pretended to look at her phone screen before speaking.

"...and didn't reply to me either."

Thus, an atmosphere of unease began to fester.

The lamp's expression grew increasingly sad; even she realized how ominous this was.

……

The practice room door was suddenly pushed open.

Almost simultaneously, everyone looked towards the doorway.

Nagasaki Motoyo's expression was as if she had made a firm decision, carrying an unquestionable resolve.

Her hair, wet from the rain, was now clinging tightly to her skin.

Water dripped continuously from the hem of her skirt, falling onto the wooden floor and shattering into pieces.

"Are you... alright? Why didn't you use an umbrella? You're all soaked."

Li hope leaned forward first, her brows furrowed. The accusations she had prepared were swallowed back, and instead, she uttered words of appeasement.

Because at this moment, Su Shi's expression was so tragic, it was as if...

Like those girls in romance dramas who are seduced and then abandoned.

This pitiful demeanor completely shattered the impression that Nagasaki Motoyo usually had in everyone's minds.

Aine immediately walked up to Suze and then... took off her coat.

"Su Shishi, why don't you put on my coat first? You'll catch a cold if you keep going like this."

Su Shi looked up at Ai Yin, her expression... somewhat subtle.

Because she came with the mission of harming Aine, she felt a stinging pain in her heart at Aine's kindness.

Aine, however, failed to understand Su Shi's true meaning. She simply felt that Su Shi's gaze was rather strange compared to before.

"Su Shishi, don't worry about me. I'm not cold at all, look."

As Ai Yin spoke, she deliberately walked to the bedside and reached out to catch the rainwater outside the window, to prove that taking off her clothes had no effect on her.

Compared to Lixi and Aine, Deng immediately lowered her head in fear after glancing at Su Shi.

Because Deng noticed that the current Su Shi... and Xiang Zi back then are so similar.

Therefore, the lamp was somewhat hesitant to face the situation.

Faced with Aine's kindness, Su Shi simply took another deep breath, then gently folded Aine's coat and handed it back to Aine.

Seeing this, Aine also lowered her head.

Su Shi was so gentle just now, but... it was precisely that appearance that made Aine a little... scared.

Su Shi walked to the center of the practice room and bowed deeply to her teammates present.

"I'm sorry... I have to leave... the band."

Su Shi never expected that the two simple words "exit" would be so difficult to pronounce.

She was finally forced to do the same thing as Xiangzi.

However, her feelings were completely different from Xiangzi's at that time.

If she could, she... wouldn't want to leave the band, nor would she want to become the bad guy who hurts everyone.

There was no earth-shattering shock, because the few people present, to varying degrees, had this premonition.

But tears still welled up in the corners of Deng's eyes, much to her dismay.

"Why... is it because I sang 'Kasuga Kage'?"

Looking at the lamp's reddened eyes.

Su Shi quickly looked away.

She told herself that she couldn't be soft-hearted at this time.

I cannot answer that myself.

"Anyway... that's it, I'm leaving now."

Su Shi knew very well that she had to leave the team quickly and decisively. Every second she lingered there would weaken her resolve.

So she deliberately put on a stern face, turned around and prepared to leave with a firm attitude.

But Li hope grabbed her wrist.

"I can quit, but you need to explain yourself first," O^罢呜丝捘捌起妻明明。

Compared to Deng, Lixi was clearly not someone who was easily swayed by emotions, so she went straight to the heart of the matter.

"...Didn't Deng apologize? We can also promise not to play that song again, or you can go apologize to Xiangzi. What...is there that you absolutely have to leave the team?"

Lixi's intuition told her that Su Shi's application to leave the team was too abrupt, making her suspicious.

She still clearly remembered the expression Su Shi made after glancing at her phone yesterday.

That was clearly fear.

Who... could make Su Shi show such fear?

Self-explanatory.

So she had to get to the bottom of it.

Su Shi's steps were halted, but she quickly came up with a solution.

"The reason is simple: I've never felt happy playing in a band."

Su Shi turned her face away, her tone icy.

"That reason... doesn't convince me."

Li hope's attitude was also very firm.

So Su Shi immediately took her phone out of her bag with her other hand and prepared to press the dial button.

Who are you going to call?

Li hope frowned and prepared to reach out to grab the phone.

But Su Shi was prepared and managed to evade it.

Su Shi replied with a cold face.

"If you are being harassed, of course you should call the police."

This was the most compelling excuse Su Shi could think of in her desperation.

"You rascal."

Lixi was indeed angry.

Although she attends a prestigious school known for its quirky and unconventional schools, and she herself is someone who frequently skips classes.

But... she really hates being called a delinquent.

Because of his anger, Li hope unconsciously increased the force in his hands, which made Su Shi's brows furrow with pain.

Ai Yin, standing to the side, was a little confused. She first looked at... the lamp that had been completely pierced.
