Gravity Girl Shining

(And you, Hibiki.)

Although they were afraid of exposing their relationship and did not say anything extra, Toyokawa Shoko's eyes conveyed everything, and Uehara Hibiki was not polite either.

("Wait till tonight!")

Soon, Toyokawa Shoko bid farewell to the two and disappeared into the hallway. Uehara Hibiki and Nagasaki Suyo walked side by side to MyGo's practice room. Seeing Suyo's head bowed in thought, Uehara Hibiki gently took her hand and asked her what she thought with a gentle look in his eyes.

"Sushi, what are you thinking about? Is it Xiangzi?"

"Well, I was thinking, Xiangzi... seems to have changed a lot. We've obviously reconciled, but... we've also become distant."

Nagasaki Suyo's voice was soft and sentimental, with a hint of nostalgia, as if she was reminiscing about times gone by.

"But in the end, it's not just Xiangzi. I've changed too. I'm no longer the same person I was when Crychic was first formed, nor am I the same person I was when MyGo was first formed. We've both changed, so some things are destined to be irreversible."

Uehara Hibiki could see a hint of sadness flash across Nagasaki Suyo's eyes, but soon, as their hands overlapped, the sadness in Nagasaki Suyo's eyes was replaced by determination.

"However, I will try my best to mend our friendship. If it can't be mended, then we can start all over again. Even after all that has happened, I still want to be friends with Xiangzi."

Uehara Hibiki nodded, a hint of relief in his eyes.

"I believe you will reconcile."

"Ok, I know."

Nagasaki Suyo smiled and leaned her head on Uehara Hibiki's shoulder.

"And thanks to you, Xiangzi and I didn't break up completely. We reconciled and had the possibility of starting over. Thank you, Xiang."

While Uehara Hibiki was enjoying the girl's tenderness, Nagasaki Suyo also quietly leaned close to his ear and whispered.

"So, I forgive you, you philandering fellow. Don't think I can't see that when Xiangzi looked at you, the look in his eyes... was exactly the same as mine back then."

Nagasaki Suyo then regained her gentle smile, but in her heart, the friendship with Xiangzi needed to be repaired, and perhaps in the future, it could take on a new form.

The above are the identities of Hara Hibiki's harem members.

Just like that, the two of them walked into the practice room. Despite Uehara Hibiki's repeated warnings, no one remembered to lock the door when he was not there. It was such a sad story.

Pushing open the soundproof door, Shiina Riki was seen sitting in front of the drums, adjusting the equipment, Chihaya Aine and Takamatsu Touma were chatting, and Kaname Rakuna was quietly savoring a small cake in the corner. Seeing Uehara Hibiki and Nagasaki Suyo walk in hand in hand, Shiina Riki was the first to attack.

"You're so slow! You're the last ones to arrive today. Lenai arrived earlier."

Of course, there was no anger in her words, but rather a sour taste.

Although everyone knew that yesterday afternoon was Nagasaki Suyo's turn for a date.

However, it was not until this time today that the two of them came together, which means!

Chihaya Aine walked over to Nagasaki Suyo with a wicked smile, put her arm around her, and pulled her out of Uehara Hibiki's arms.

"Okay, Soyorin, tell me quickly, did you guys…"

Nagasaki Suyo's cheeks turned red instantly. Although it was the truth, how could she say it out loud!

"Aine, stop talking nonsense!"

"Ah! Soyorin blushed! It's true, you guys didn't wait until morning..."

"Shut up!"

Sure enough, in the face of Chihaya Aine's offensive, Nagasaki Motoyo was completely unable to maintain her elegant mask. She was instantly defeated and began to counterattack the hateful pink-haired girl!

Watching the two of them playing around, Uehara Hibiki smiled and walked over to Shiina Riki, and a kiss put an end to all the complaints. Then Uehara Hibiki walked over to Takamatsu Tomo and whispered, "Tomo, I've already arranged it. Xiangzi will also come to watch the live show tonight."

"Well, then I will also work hard to let Xiangzi see my happy self."

Chapter 155: Toyokawa Shoko is sure to win.

(lyrics)

Can my confused voice be conveyed to you? (Can it be conveyed to you?)

Don't forget the day when you insisted on setting off even though you were afraid and shrinking back (Don't forget)

I haven't discovered so many.

Emotions I had never known came pouring out of me.

This depressed and unreliable me (this me)

Even when I was in trouble and couldn't grow, you always gave me affirmation (with your affirmation)

I recall that it is because of you that I exist.

"Thank you!"

……

Takamatsu Deng's singing finally ignited the enthusiasm of the entire audience. Everyone could feel that the passionate emotions in this song came from her gratitude to someone.

After the LIVE ended, the night was as dark as ink, covering the bustling city of Tokyo. Street lights lit up one by one, and the light of the street lights shone on Takamatsu Deng and Toyokawa Shoko. The two walked side by side on the familiar streets, their steps neither hurried nor slow, as if they were chasing after memories of the past.

On the overpass in front of Gao Songdeng's house, the two paused, leaning against the railings and watching the stream of cars below. The continuous stream of car lights resembled a flowing silver ribbon, a scene that looked exactly like the one in their memory. In the vast city, the huge changes in the two girls seemed so insignificant.

"The city hasn't changed, but we... have changed."

Takamatsu Deng's face held a hint of exhausted satisfaction, a look she always had after every live performance. Even though her body was exhausted to the point of breaking point, her spirit was still vibrant. This time, facing Toyokawa Shoko, Deng was the first to speak, as if foreshadowing a change in their status.

"Well, we've all changed a lot."

Toyokawa Shoko wanted to lie, but she couldn't in front of Tomo. Takamatsu Tomo seemed to possess some kind of special talent, able to detect the subtle changes in everyone's heart. She was not good at expressing it, but she was very good at understanding it. And with Uehara Hibiki's encouragement, Takamatsu Tomo gradually emerged from the shadow of her past and began to realize a new self.

This was originally a responsibility that Shoko Toyokawa took on and then gave up without authorization.

Fortunately, the days of tears and apologies are over, and the two who have reconciled are about to create a new future.

So, instead of “I’m sorry”, it’s…

"Thank you, Deng. For writing such a song for me."

In response to Toyokawa Shoko's thanks, Takamatsu Deng just shook his head, looked at the traffic under the overpass, and started singing again, as if they were back to a year ago when the two of them were singing here.

……

(lyrics)

Being touched by warmth is you.

Even that night when I was alone and crying (that night)

I must have achieved who I am today (I have achieved who I am today)

I recall that it is because of you that I exist.

"Thank you!"

……

Gao Songdeng did not sing these few short lines of lyrics as hard as she did on stage. She just protected her tired voice and sang softly.

Takamatsu Deng will never forget the day when Toyokawa Shoko introduced her to the world of music. It was the first time in her life that she had a close friend who resonated with her soul and had the opportunity to express her inner feelings.

Even though Uehara Hibiki's help to Takamatsu Touma was from 1 to 100, the initial help from 0 to 1 came from Toyokawa Shoko.

Therefore, this song "A Meeting of Sounds" is Gao Songdeng's gratitude to two people, two equally important people in her life.

There are no extra words to embellish it; Gao Songdeng's singing is the cry from her heart.

Toyokawa Shoko's eyes widened slightly, a warm feeling surged in her heart. She stared at Deng's clear eyes, her voice trembling slightly.

"Deng, I... I'm really touched. It's great that you're happy now, so... I'll also make my own cry, so please look forward to it."

As she spoke, tears of emotion flashed in Toyokawa Shoko's eyes, causing her to quickly turn her head and look under the overpass to prevent the lights from noticing anything unusual.

"Since you wrote such a song for me today, I have to repay you. When my band finishes the first single, I will let you listen to it as soon as possible."

A hint of determination flashed in Toyokawa Shoko's eyes, and she tried to make her tone cheerful.

"Besides, I also want to write about you and Hibiki."

Gao Songdeng's eyes were suddenly filled with anticipation, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

"Really? I'm looking forward to it! Xiangzi's music must be great! I want to continue listening to Xiangzi's inner cry."

The two chatted on the overpass, their topics ranging from details of their live performances, their experiences on stage, to memories of the past. It was as if time had flown back to their carefree days. They reminisced about their practice days together and their dreams, their laughter softly echoing in the night air, warm and natural.

The sad memories were covered by laughter, the scars were healed, and both of them looked forward to weaving a new future.

……

Meanwhile, in the shadows beneath the overpass, Uehara Hibiki and Sankaku Hatsuka leaned against the cold wall, silently watching the two on the bridge. Uehara Hibiki put his hands in his pockets, his gaze passing through the gap in the bridge railing, falling on Xiangzi and Deng, a flicker of satisfaction in his eyes.

But at the same time, he could feel Chu Hua's silence beside him, a depressing and heavy silence.

"Jealous?"

This time, Sanjiao Chuhua's silence became a definite proof, and she could not deny it.

Once again tracking Toyokawa Shoko, and once again being captured by Uehara Hibiki, Sankaku Hatsuka no longer cares what dirty side he reveals in front of this accomplice, as long as he can hide everything from Shoko.

Her eyes were fixed on the overpass. Her extraordinary perception allowed her to easily hear the sounds on the overpass. Xiangzi and Deng's laughter was like an invisible knife, piercing her heart.

Mikado Hatsuka, Toyokawa Shoko's childhood sweetheart (self-proclaimed).

But in fact, to Shoko Toyokawa, she was just an ordinary friend.

Not distant, but not close either.

Sankaku Hatsuka lost to Uehara Hibiki, who was Toyokawa Shoko's lover; she lost to Wakaba Mutsu, who was Toyokawa Shoko's true childhood sweetheart; but she also lost to Takamatsu Tomo. Although they had known each other for less than she had, Takamatsu Tomo completely entered Toyokawa Shoko's heart, and the two became close friends with a resonance of the soul.

Completely defeat Sanjiao Chuhua.

Or maybe she didn't even officially join the competition.

After all, Sanjiao Chuhua is one of the culprits who caused Toyokawa Shoko such a tragedy. She always faced Shoko with lies and never dared to reveal her true face.

Just like now.

As a boyfriend, Uehara Hibiki just took the initiative to leave some space for Deng and Xiangzi to be alone. He could walk out of the shadows at any time and say hello to the two people on the overpass.

As the stalker, Sanjiao Chuhua just curled up in the shadows behind Uehara Hibiki, secretly peeking at Xiangzi.

"I have no right to be jealous. This is all my fault."

"Here we go again. It's all your fault again. Although you admitted everything else, you kept these secrets to yourself."

Uehara Hibiki sighed, his tone gentle but firm.

"Chuhua, why don't you believe me? I can solve all your problems."

"No."

Sanjiao Chuhua's rejection was just as swift and unconditional as before. She had once entrusted the secret to someone she trusted, but the result was that Xiangzi fell into even greater misfortune.

Therefore, she had already made up her mind to keep this secret completely.

Uehara Hibiki looked at the triangular Chuhua in the shadows, but he had no intention of digging into the matter. Although he had many tricks to find out the secret, that would go against Chuhua's own wishes, which was contrary to his aesthetic of love.

"It doesn't matter. I'll wait until the day you speak up. Until that day comes, we'll still be accomplices. I'll help you and hide everything from Xiangzi."

The price to pay is Sanjiao Hatsuhua's dependence on Uehara Hibiki.

Perhaps one day, this dependence will turn into love between a man and a woman.

In the end, Sanjiao Chuhua voluntarily stepped into the web woven by Uehara Hibiki. She just comforted herself again and again, not to indulge in happiness under Uehara Hibiki's offensive so early.

……

On the overpass, Shoko Toyokawa looked at Hibiki Uehara waving at her from under the bridge and couldn't help but smile. But then, when she saw Deng's face showing an expression almost the same as hers, the question that had not yet been asked seemed to have an answer.

As early as last month, when Uehara Hibiki wrote the song "Angel's Four-Leaf Clover," Toyokawa Shoko had already noticed that there was another girl in Uehara Hibiki's heart. Combining Toyokawa Shoko's observations with the information she occasionally got from Chihaya Aine, that person could only be Deng.

At that time, facing her indirect questioning, Uehara Hibiki also admitted it very straightforwardly. To be honest, this actually calmed Toyokawa Shoko down. If it was another thief, it would be fine, but if the opponent was Deng, as Deng's soulmate, Toyokawa Shoko would not admit defeat, but she would not be angry either, after all, it was Deng.

Now, Gao Songdeng's answer was completely within her expectations. And this fact, which she had anticipated long ago, could not hinder her determination to proceed.

When she decided to pursue her own happiness, Toyokawa Shoko had already made up her mind to hold on to all happiness, not just the band, but also her lover.

Taking a deep breath, Shoko Toyokawa stopped avoiding and started her offensive.

"Light, do you like the sound?"

"Yes, I like it."
