Do I really have a thing for female voice actors?

She wasn't angry, but she was a little annoyed by Aoki Hina's seemingly indifferent but actually accusatory attitude.

It's because she always only says half of what she means and always hides her true feelings. No matter what she says, others have to guess and speculate.

How could she tell whether she was concerned about her or giving her a warning, signaling her to stay far away from Tazaki Toru?

The air conditioner inside the room was continuously releasing warmth, as if trying to ease the strange atmosphere between them.

Hina Aoki gently rubbed her fingers, fiddling with her nails, and suddenly said:

"This year is almost over."

Rin Tachibana didn't understand what those words meant, so she secretly glanced at Hina Aoki's profile and found her staring blankly ahead, seemingly looking at something.

A long time passed.

"I know what Rin-chan is thinking. She must think I'm here to question you, saying that you're getting too close to Tazaki-kun! Your shoulders are practically touching, and you should get away from him!"

"Is that right?"

Rin Tachibana's eyes widened immediately, her expression as if her thoughts had been completely exposed.

That expression was tantamount to admitting it.

Aoki Hina looked helpless: "I'm not that childish."

“I’ve known all along that Tazaki-kun is that kind of person. He can’t let anyone go. Yesterday, you must have been the one who kept bothering him and caused him trouble again.”

"I... I didn't pester him," Tachibana Rin continued stubbornly, sounding unconvinced.

A brief silence fell over the room once again.

“Hey, Rin-chan.”

"When Christmas comes, I think..."

"I want to confess my feelings to him."

"Eh?"

Rin Tachibana's mouth was slightly open, completely at a loss for words.

Suddenly, Hina Aoki slowly turned her neck, her bright, beautiful eyes revealing an unparalleled seriousness and composure, disclosing her resolve.

"Rin-chan, you're my best friend, you..."

Will you cheer me on?

"........."

216. Since things have come to this, let's get breast augmentation first.

When Christmas comes, I want to confess my feelings to him.

Why...why would you say something like that?

Lying alone on her bed in the bedroom, Hina Aoki recalled her earlier conversation with Rin Tachibana.

Until recently, Mingming was still enjoying her current state.

It's not that I necessarily want to take things further with him, so why did I suddenly change my mind?

This is mostly based on some clues.

Perhaps it was because he learned of Mika Kohinata's existence and understood the significance of that ordinary girl in Toru Tazaki's heart.

Or perhaps, recently, Tachibana Rin's attitude towards Tazaki Tooru has undergone a subtle change.

Hina Aoki is a girl who is good at reading people's expressions and moods. In particular, she spends all day with Rin Tachibana, so she is most sensitive to the changes that are happening to Rin.

But ultimately, it's due to Hina Aoki herself.

Feeling threatened, aside from himself, he might also extend kindness to other girls in places she doesn't know about, making him a target of unwanted attention.

Isn't Ms. Kondo a perfect example?

Thinking of this, Hina Aoki felt a sense of unease, fearing that she would repeat the same mistake.

The moment I learned that "Spring Shadows" had been taken away, it felt as if something had been ripped out of my body.

Hina Aoki didn't want to experience that feeling a second time.

The reason she expressed her stance to Tachibana Rin was both to test Tachibana Rin's reaction and to strengthen her own resolve, cutting off any way out for herself.

That being said, Hina Aoki never fights a battle she can't win.

If by Christmas Day she still sees no hope of winning, she will decisively adjust her plans.

After all, cats are agile.

Once you fail, there will be no second chance.

In any case, the most important thing now is to find out what state Toru Tazaki is in.

In addition to that, there is another very important thing.

She needs to arm herself with external power.

Although Ms. Aoki is naturally beautiful and has an idol-like appearance, as a girl, she believes she has a slightly fatal flaw.

She got up from the bed, walked to the full-length mirror, and looked at the slender girl in the mirror, striking poses back and forth. Aoki Hina made up her mind.

Starting today, let's find a way to enlarge our breasts.

Okay! That's decided!

……

……

Tazaki Toru, of course, had no idea what the two female voice actresses living in his house were thinking of him at that moment.

Despite the warm sunshine and cold wind, Toru Tazaki arrived at the recording studio to watch the members of Ave Mujica practice.

He hasn't been composing these past two days, so listening to the band members practice has helped him to some extent replenish his inspiration.

This band still doesn't have a lead singer.

According to Mr. Fujita, another audition will be held at the end of the month, and with the end of the year approaching, the pressure on them is palpable.

The auditions, which lasted for several months, still failed to select a candidate, which was far beyond the scope of the project.

If a suitable candidate is still not found in the next audition, the project team will likely lower the requirements and select a suitable candidate from among the previous outstanding candidates.

In Tazaki Toru's opinion, Sasaki Riko has a very high chance of winning.

Aside from being slightly over the age limit, the rest of the vocals perfectly match Ave Mujica's lead singer.

Unlike MyGO when they were first formed, Ave Mujica's members practiced quite smoothly and quickly got along well with each other.

In particular, Ms. Takao, who plays the keyboard, possesses a superior playing technique that far surpasses any female voice actress that Toru Tazaki has encountered so far.

Moreover, it is an exceptional quality that is almost unparalleled.

With such a professional playing the melody written by Toru Tazaki himself, Toru Tazaki naturally had no complaints.

Only occasionally could one sense that Ms. Yonezawa, the drummer, was casting a slightly resentful glance at her.

To this, Toru Tazaki could only respond with a slightly embarrassed smile.

Toru Tazaki admitted that the intensity of the drum kit in Ave Mujica's arrangement was indeed slightly excessive.

But this is just the beginning. If Sasaki Riko can actually pass the audition and land the role...

As agreed with Sasaki Riko, Tazaki Toru also had to submit the song that Kobayashi Koko couldn't play at all.

Who knows what kind of expression Miss Yonezawa will make then?

Now, Toru Tazaki has a good understanding of the members of Ave Mujica, and he arranges music with each member's playing level in mind.

It won't be so difficult that they can't play it, nor will it waste their talents.

All the arrangement techniques that couldn't be used in MyGO were transferred to Ave Mujica.

Tazaki Toru is genuinely happy with this job.

As for whether the drummer is happy or not, he can't say.

To avoid appearing biased, Toru Tazaki would also prepare gifts for the Ave Mujica members after their practice sessions.

For this reason, he recently got a membership card for the bakery in front of the train station, which occasionally gives him some new products.

Most of the portion that isn't distributed equally among everyone ends up in the stomach of Ms. Watase, who is a rhythm guitarist.

As the youngest member of Ave Mujica, Watase is like a younger sister to the other members, often receiving their pampering and care.

Inside the lounge.

Ms. Watase was enjoying her cake.

Despite using an ordinary guitar, Ms. Watase is a natural left-hander, and at this moment she is holding a plastic fork in her left hand, stuffing cake into her mouth one bite after another.

With each chew, his round cheeks bulged out, like a constantly inflated ball.

The voice actresses around me were discussing things related to the band, such as the details of the performance and a certain topic that they couldn't avoid during every practice session.

When exactly will our lead singer arrive?

Ms. Watase's eyes only light up slightly when the topic of team building activities comes up, which means she'll get to eat something delicious again.

"I heard that there will be an audition for the lead singer at the end of the month," Ms. Takao suddenly mentioned.

As the center of this band, Ms. Takao is incredibly excited to see what kind of lead singer her band will have.

"Hasn't this been held many times already?"

"I hope they can be selected soon. MyGO next door has been practicing with five members for a long time."

"Their team's lead singer is Ms. Yang Gong, who auditioned last time. She has a very distinctive voice."

"That's true."

What do you think of her singing skills?

"Um... her voice is really nice."

This answer is completely irrelevant.
