Chihaya Aine is a member of the team Zero

"Is there anywhere you want to go today, Xiaomu?"

Toyokawa Shoko happily took small steps and walked to Wakaba Mu's side.

Wakaba Mu looked at Toyokawa Shoko, who had turned back into the white moonlight in front of him.

Do not!

For some reason, Ruoye Mu felt that today's Toyokawa Shoko was even better than her former white moonlight Toyokawa Shoko.

"Hmm? What's wrong, Xiao Mu?"

After realizing that Wakaba Mutsu was just staring at her in a daze, Toyokawa Shoko walked up to Wakaba Mutsu and shook her hand.

"Ah! I'm fine."

After hearing Toyokawa Shoko's words full of concern, Wakaba Mu came to his senses and quickly waved his hands to indicate that he was fine.

"How about we find a quiet place to drink some tea first? I've already gotten some clues about what you asked me to investigate last night, Xiaoxiang."

Wakaba Mu thought it would be better to first talk to Toyokawa Shoko about the information he had at hand.

"I know about the falling stockings..."

"Then let's go to the coffee shop that we've been going to more often recently."

Shoko Toyokawa also knew the priorities of things, and she would have plenty of time to spend with Wakaba Mutsu in the future, so there was no need to rush.

At this moment, Ruoye Mu did not answer, but just nodded his little head slightly to express his opinion to Toyokawa Shoko.

After Toyokawa Shoko and Wakaba Mutsu reached a consensus, they set off towards the coffee shop they had been visiting frequently recently.

On the road, Shoko Toyokawa passed by a girl with pink hair through a wall of people.

This pink-haired girl successfully activated the Ultra Capsule through her bond with everyone and transformed into Infinite Zero, defeating Chihaya Aine, K Fushigi and Absolute Tartarus.

"Um?!"

In the consciousness space, Zero suddenly made a sound of surprise and doubt.

"What's wrong, Cero?"

Rushing to Nagasaki Sushi's "Duplex High-Rise, Sea and River View" on the top floor

Chihaya Aine, who was at home on the first floor, asked immediately after hearing her partner's voice.

"I sensed a breath similar to the Shield of Paraji from that blue-haired girl just now..."

In the consciousness space, Zero gently stroked the ultimate bracelet on his wrist.

"Isn't the Ultimate Bracelet formed after Ultraman Noa gave you the 'Shield of Paraji'? If you sensed it correctly just now, the other party couldn't be Ultraman Noa, right?"

Chihaya Aine, who has seen some of Zero's memories, naturally knows the origin of the important item "Shield of Paraji".

"It's also possible that she has recently come into contact with something related to Ultraman Noa..."

With insufficient information now, Zero can only make some guesses with a higher probability.

"Then should we turn around and go back to ask that blue-haired girl?"

Chihaya Aine asked.

"No need. The other party's aura has disappeared. Perhaps it's because of the aura of the blue-haired girl. I can't use Ultra Telekinesis to detect her location."

In the consciousness space, Zero shook his head and said that there was no need to continue investigating the matter.

"But if you can't detect it using Ultra Telekinesis, wouldn't it be more abrupt and easier to find if there's a vacuum in your perception?"

Chihaya Aine was a little confused about this.

"It's not just a vacuum zone. It's like someone has drawn a no-travel line on my Ultra Telekinesis. After stretching a distance in the direction the blue-haired girl left, it can no longer extend forward."

In the consciousness space, Zero spread his hands helplessly, indicating that he had no other choice.

"I have no choice but to leave it like this."

Chihaya Aine silently kept this in mind and turned and left.

In Nagasaki Suyo's home on the top floor of a "duplex high-rise, overlooking the sea and the river", the Earl Grey tea that had just been served was emitting a faint steam, and the amber surface reflected Nagasaki Suyo's expressionless and delicate cheeks. Corresponding to this was Nagasaki Suyo's clear voice, which was not as clear as usual, which made Chihaya Aine, who was sitting opposite and laughing dryly, feel a little pressured.

"So, please explain, Soyorin. We were supposed to discuss the band's future together, so why are there only two of us?"

Although Nagasaki Suyo was already overjoyed to be able to be alone at this time, she still had to suppress her excitement and pretend to be expressionless on the surface.

"Ah, well, Lenai-chan has been acting like a stray cat, and Rikki can't be disturbed while she's working. As for Xiao Deng, well, anyway, she can't come for various reasons~"

The smile on Chihaya Aine's face was almost unsustainable, especially when she was about to tell Nagasaki Motoyo that she had actually made an appointment with Takamatsu Touma to go stargazing together that night.

"poor."

"Wait a minute, did I hear that?"

The Earl Grey tea on the coffee table was just the right temperature for drinking. With her eyes lowered, Nagasaki Suyo leisurely picked up the Earl Grey tea in front of her and took a sip. She slightly suppressed the corners of her mouth that wanted to rise wildly, and then she added slowly.

"In the final analysis, it's you, Aine-chan, who has been throwing yourself into battle without hesitation, disregarding everyone's feelings. If Mr. Seven hadn't sent you the Ultra Capsule in time during the last battle, you might have been a corpse by now, you know?!"

The more Nagasaki Suyo thought about this matter, the angrier she became.

"Under the circumstances, it's normal that there hasn't been any progress on the band front, right? Besides, Aine-chan, have you been practicing guitar lately?"

"Well, ah, how do I put this matter..."

Looking at Nagasaki Motoyo's delicate expressionless face, Chihaya Aine was sweating profusely as she tried to explain that she really wasn't going to fight recklessly.

As for Zero, who made Chihaya Aine live a life of chaos almost every day, he had already curled up in the deepest part of his consciousness space.

"It's not because we're forming a 'lifelong' band. Since we've decided to be together for such a long time, I think we still need to carry out some band activities."

Chihaya Aine gave two bitter laughs and then expressed her own opinion.

"I really didn't expect you to think about things in the future."

Nagasaki Suyo took another sip of the Earl Grey tea in her hand.

"Hasn't Soyorin ever thought about spending a lifetime with me? A lifetime, a lifetime?" The fingertips of Chihaya Aine's right hand covered her cherry-colored lips. Her slightly exaggerated expression and sweet voice could be called artificial, but in Nagasaki Suyo's eyes, she was already quite cute. This is what is called "Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder."

"Aww, so sad."

Chihaya Aine rubbed her eyes, as if she was about to burst into tears.

"The length of a lifetime..."

Nagasaki Suye's heartbeat suddenly quickened, and she immediately stopped talking, holding the teacup.

But Chihaya Aine, with puffed cheeks and rubbing her eyes, was still humming and peeking at Nagasaki Suyo in front of her. Finally, under pressure, Nagasaki Suyo put down the teacup in her hand, turned her head and said:

"I just haven't imagined what it would be like to be old. And considering your current situation, Aine-chan, let alone getting old, I don't even dare to think about next year!"

When Nagasaki Suyo mentioned this, her beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly.

"Ah, I haven't thought about it. Oh, that would be a very, very long time."

Chihaya Aine naturally didn't intend to touch this bad luck, so she immediately chose to avoid the main point and speak lightly.

Slowly, Chihaya Aine's voice became softer, which was different from the impression Nagasaki Motoyo had of her.

So when Nagasaki Motoyo looked up at Chihaya Aine with some concern, she saw the big pink-haired dog with its face in its hands, also looking at her with a beautiful smile.

The clear sunlight poured in from the floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing Nagasaki Suyo to notice the flying crystal dust, but what concerned her most was Chihaya Aine's beautiful cheeks, which seemed somewhat transparent in the sunlight.

The bright smile that emerged made Nagasaki Motoyo feel as warm as the sunshine, and the pair of gray eyes that seemed to reflect and embrace everything were filled with Nagasaki Motoyo's own figure, as if reflected in the rippling water, clear but blurred by the ripples.

"Some cheating."

Nagasaki Motoyo was actually a little dazed. After she came to her senses, she wanted to avoid Chihaya Aion's sight, but if she turned her head now, it would seem as if she was feeling guilty. Nagasaki Motoyo suddenly felt a little regretful and looked up at Chihaya Aion.

"so"

With her right hand gently pressing the index finger of her left hand, Nagasaki Suyo tried her best to make her expression and tone less embarrassed.

"If Aine-chan is just here to discuss something I can't accept, I won't compromise."

At the critical moment, Nagasaki Suyo managed to calm down through familiar movements.

"No, no, I didn't come to Soyorin to discuss such a serious matter. It's really important. Really, really."

As she spoke, Chihaya Aine's tone returned to its usual cheerfulness, and even the tone at the end of the sentence was familiarly rising.

Chihaya Aine brought a sweet breeze and warmth, and sat down next to Nagasaki Motoyo at lightning speed, then took out a notebook from her shoulder bag that looked quite familiar to Nagasaki Motoyo.

"Even if you don't use this superhuman speed to sit next to me, I won't run away..."

Nagasaki Motoyo felt a little helpless about the fact that a figure flashed before her eyes and Chihaya Aine sat next to her.

"Hey, am I not a little anxious?"

Chihaya Aine touched her head sheepishly and showed her most iconic and somewhat silly smile.

"Let's not talk about this for now, I'm going to get down to business!"

Chihaya Aine opened the notebook in her hand, and then handed it to Nagasaki Suyo as if presenting a treasure.

"Since we're going to play in a band, we should have some songs of our own, right? What style would be best for this song? Although it depends most on Xiao Deng and Rikki's inspiration for lyrics and arrangement, this question is really bothering me."

Chihaya Aine wants the band to have a new song that belongs to all five of them.

"Rather than the style of the band's new song, I think Aine-chan should first be concerned about what our band is going to be called..."

Nagasaki Suyo discovered that people really feel thirsty when they are silent, so she picked up the Earl Grey tea on the table and took a sip.

"Can't you just pick one of those names I thought of earlier?"

Chihaya Aine flipped through the notebook in her hand and showed the contents to Nagasaki Suyo.

Several old friends including "UnKnown", "Ano Nie" and "Anna Yu" all appeared, and Chihaya Aine even designed team logos for these names.

Regarding Chihaya Aine's naming taste, Nagasaki Suyo just wanted to stroke her forehead and sigh.

"I reject them all~"

Nagasaki Motoyo smiled and rejected Chihaya Aine's series of band names.

"Hey! Since you want to deny the name I gave you, Soyorin, then come up with a nice name for me!"

Chihaya Aine was a little angry when her taste in naming was rejected for the second time.

"Aine-chan, I saw a quote online a while ago that I really liked: 'Does it have to be able to cool a refrigerator if I'm going to evaluate it? I'm giving it to you now, unopened...'"

Nagasaki Motoyo's blue eyes, as blue as the sky, were now hidden behind her smiling slits.

Although she said this, Nagasaki Suyo still looked at the notebook full of colorful labels with a smile, as if the dislike she had just felt about Chihaya Aine's naming taste was just an illusion.

Nagasaki Suyo felt inexplicably disappointed that the band didn't have a name yet.

However, Chihaya Aine, who was completely unaware, lifted her pink hair and tucked it behind her ears to reveal her fair and beautiful cheeks, while she placed her fingertips on the notebook to indicate her ideas to Nagasaki Motoyo.

Volume 1: Chapter 134 Five exclamation points represent everyone

Her thoughts were drawn to the person beside her. Nagasaki Suyo, who had to suppress her fluctuating emotions, felt helpless. She leaned over and looked at him carefully for a while. She sighed as usual for Chihaya Aine's taste, then slowly said:

"I didn't expect to be bothered by something like this. Besides, it's better to discuss the band name with everyone, right?"

"How about adding five exclamation points to the end of whatever the band's name is?"

The inspiration in Chihaya Aine's mind exploded like the Big Bang and the creation of heaven and earth.

"exclamation mark?"

Nagasaki Motoyo was also stunned by Chihaya Aine's sudden idea.

"That's right! The five exclamation points represent everyone in our band!"

Chihaya Aine said this while drawing five exclamation marks on her notebook.

"But if that's the case, it would be hard to make those five exclamation marks look good, right?"

For some reason, after hearing Chihaya Aine say that the five exclamation marks represented the five people in the band, Nagasaki Motoyo thought that the five crooked exclamation marks looked quite handsome.

"If you think it's hard to handle, why not just shrink it or hide it?"

After sighing, Nagasaki Suyo opened her mouth and offered her suggestions.

"Eh? No way, I already said the five exclamation points represent everyone in the band!"
