Gravity Girl Shining

"Then why did Xiangzi say he wanted to quit Crychic? Is there any inconvenience? Can you tell me?"

"..."

Shoko Toyokawa clenched her teeth. Her excessive self-esteem did not allow her to tell the truth.

She was afraid and pitied.

She didn't want to face the lost happiness.

She worried that her tears would make her weak again.

"Sorry, this is for my personal reasons. I can't tell you for the time being."

"So, Xiangzi, can I do something for you? I really want to help you."

Nagasaki Suyo stretched out her hand, she wanted to do something.

From the day Crychic disbanded, she felt that she should do something, but she never knew how to do it.

But faced with that well-intentioned helping hand, Shoko Toyokawa backed off.

An unconscious step back left the hand suspended in the air.

Looking at the astonishment and hurt on Nagasaki Suye's face, the soft-hearted Xiaoxiang couldn't hide the sadness in his heart.

The goddess who never made mistakes in front of Nagasaki Suyo bent her always straight back for the first time.

"I'm sorry, Sushi. My withdrawal from Crychic is entirely my own fault. It has nothing to do with you. This is all my fault."

"No, Xiangzi, I was wrong too. I just wanted to..."

"I have something urgent to do, so I'll take my leave now."

On the long downhill slope, Shoko Toyokawa's pace was a little faster than usual.

Nagasaki Suyo chased in vain, but was powerless due to the difference in physical strength and could only watch Toyokawa Shoko disappear at the corner below the slope.

I just want to find you.

Then get back to the good old days.

……

After walking half of the usual distance in one breath and making sure she had gotten rid of Su Shi, Toyokawa Shoko's cold shell finally broke, revealing the sadness inside.

With tears blurring her eyes, Shoko Toyokawa leaned against the wall and took out her cell phone.

She never blocked Nagasaki Suyo.

Toyokawa Shoko carefully read every message that Nagasaki Motoyo sent her in the notification bar of her mobile phone, but she was ultimately thinking of escaping and did not dare to click on it to mark the message as read.

It seems that as long as I do this, I can forget it and pretend that nothing happened.

Just as she didn't dare to read Deng's notes at first, Su Shi's text message was also a torture for Toyokawa Shoko.

Crychic used to be so happy, and the time when we got together was so beautiful.

A delicate and sensitive lamp, her lyrics are a cry from the heart, her voice a secret medicine to heal the soul, moving and captivating Toyokawa Shoko, whose heart, having lost her mother, is as dead as a puppet. The song "Spring Shadow" is Toyokawa Shoko's elegant cry, the reason for her tears.

Mu, who persevered in silence, was the other half of Toyokawa Shoko. No matter what she did, Mu would always stand by her side, and no matter what situation Mu faced, she would always protect him. Whether it was joy or pain, the two of them always endured it together, never parting.

Li Xi, impulsive yet kind, is truly honest and thoughtful. Though seemingly impulsive, she possesses a meticulous mind, observing everyone's moods. Though seemingly impatient, she possesses a patient perseverance, constantly pushing herself forward. She is a most trustworthy companion.

Finally, gentle Su Shi, elegant Su Shi, reliable Su Shi.

She is not a close friend of the soul, not a destined partner, not a trusted partner, but Nagasaki Suyo is recognized, loved, and desired by Toyokawa Shoko.

A noble and kind person.

And that motherly tenderness.

For Shoko Toyokawa, the encounter that day was also her destiny.

But, on that rainy day.

All the happiness is washed away, and all the beauty is melted away.

Shoko Toyokawa is a willful self-sacrificer.

When faced with suffering, she chose to hide it from others, silently sacrificed herself, and left herself covered in bruises, but was extremely resistant to the care of others.

But when the suffering became more than she could bear, Toyokawa Shoko finally fell into the abyss of oblivion and completely escaped from everything about Crychic.

They flowed into the river with the rain, winding around, but eventually turned around and blocked Toyokawa Shoko's path to pursuit of happiness, becoming a new obstacle in her pursuit of happiness.

This great river is called "Sadness"

Toyokawa Shoko, with love as motivation, refused to forget and stopped her numb life of endless decline.

But when she tried to move towards the future, she found that she was trapped in the past by sadness.

……

On the tram, Nagasaki Suyo looked at her phone numbly.

Shiina Riki urged her in the group.

"You didn't come to RING, and you didn't reply to my messages. Where are you now?"

"Why? What happened?"

"The lamp is asking you a question! Why don't you speak?"

The three minutes have already passed, and it is too late to go to RING. I will definitely be late today.

It's bad.

and……

Although he was able to talk to Xiangzi for a rare occasion, he failed to make any meaningful progress. Xiangzi eventually left, and he didn't even have the courage to keep him.

Just watched her leave.

Nagasaki Suyo was angry at her own incompetence.

Having missed this opportunity today, will Xiangzi pass by that ramp next time?

Or would she change her route and disappear once more, forcing Nagasaki Suyo to repeat her futile search?

Dark clouds covered Nagasaki Suyo, making it impossible for her to see where the road beneath her feet led.

The phone rang again.

It was a private message from Uehara Hibiki.

"Did something happen?"

Nagasaki Suyo looked at the read messages on her phone and silently typed "Sorry, I'll be there soon."

Even after suffering a huge blow, Nagasaki Suyo still wears the mask, and she can no longer take off the mask on her own.

In the MyGo band, she is still the gentle and reliable Nagasaki Suyo.

Just like in the old Crychic.

Even with a mask on, tears still filled my eyes.

"Don't force yourself. Just tell me if you have anything."

The more you are cared for, the more heartbroken you feel.

Nagasaki Suyo really wanted to tell Uehara Hibiki.

Don't be so nice to me.

……

The phone rings again.

But this time the writer was Toyokawa Shoko.

"Xiangzi!"

Nagasaki Suyo couldn't help but stand up from her seat, and with trembling fingers, she opened the private chat with Toyokawa Shoko.

In nearly a year, thousands of messages were all read in an instant.

The chat box, which was always one-way, finally received a reply.

"Sorry, let's talk again next time."

The clouds dissipated and the moonlight returned.

"Are you free this weekend? I want to have a good chat with you."

"Well, I see."

Chapter 72: Today is the day of Nagasaki Suyo's defeat.

"Clang clang! Everyone, look at my and Xiang's performance costumes!"

In the practice room, Chihaya Aine and Uehara Hibiki stood back to back, striking a pose that they thought looked handsome.

Both of their clothes had a large area of ​​blue, the same hue as the lights, but now it looked...

It's a bit like a couple's outfit.

Not happy, not happy.

"Hmph, it's not bad."

Looking at the two of them standing back to back, Shiina Riki couldn't help feeling a little jealous. As for Takamatsu Teru, she was already thinking about the performance costume she had left at home.

"I want to join in, too. Do you want us to practice in our costumes from now on?"

"No, that would make the performance clothes too dirty. For regular practice, just wear casual clothes. But this skirt, Aine, you really like the asymmetrical design."

Shiina Riki looked at Aine's blue short jacket and white double-layered skirt, both of which were deliberately cut to be asymmetrical, as if she was inspired by Deng's skirt last time.

But this is not what she really wants to complain about. After all, asymmetry is also a very popular style.

The point is, this jacket is a little too short, and the waist is exposed.

However, this is the effect that Chihaya Aine wants.

Ever since their last date, she realized how much her waistline could hurt Hibiki. Just now, when she was secretly changing clothes in the bathroom, Hibiki, the naughty guy, had touched her to his heart's content.

"I just like this style. If you don't like it, I'll make it less asymmetrical for you later."

Chihaya Aine said as she bumped into Uehara Hibiki with her back.

"Xiang, do you want to say something too?"

"No need. I trust Aine's taste in clothes. Besides, Li Xi has such a beautiful figure, no matter what design she wears, she will definitely look great."

"There's no need to say that."

After being praised in person, Shiina Riki immediately lowered his head and behaved himself.

"Hehehe, then the next one is Lenai. Lenai, after practice today, let's go to the commercial street and see what style suits you."

"Buying clothes? I'm so tired, I don't want to go."

“There will be matcha cake.”

"Go."

The cat girl is still as easy to understand as ever. In a sense, as long as you are willing to spend money to buy food, training a cat is not difficult.

Especially for a wealthy woman like Aine.

However, Uehara Hibiki is really starting to worry about Lenai's health. After joining the band, she has perfectly circumvented the pocket money limit set by her grandmother. She acts like a spoiled child here and trades things there every day, and she never stops eating all kinds of sweets. I hope her physique that can't gain weight is real.

Otherwise it would be funny if the white cat turned into a big orange cat.

"But with Xiang dressed like this, he looks just like an adult."

Nagasaki Suyo looked at Uehara Hibiki, and the emotions in her eyes changed little by little.

"He's already very loud, and now he's dressed so maturely. As a captain, he's really reliable."

"Yes, I am the captain, the pilot captain!"

Uehara Hibiki looked at the pilot jacket on her body and was satisfied with it no matter how she looked at it. Aine's fashion sense was really amazing. In one word, it was cool.
