Mygo? Bandori Girls? The goal is The Idolmaster!

The most important thing is that no one smiled and touched her head, saying: This child is really good at joking, just like her father.

No one teased her, saying: This child's acting skills are amazing, she has perfectly inherited her mother's skills.

Wakaba Mu felt a little happy. She felt respected and free, and felt her own "existence" - Saki and Kaname Rana always dealt with things objectively and watched over her, and never directed their anger at her parents.

The only problem is that Kaname doesn't know how to teach her; she just plays the guitar freely. How does she do that? Even the magic cat wouldn't know.

But Kaname didn't refuse. She grabbed Wakaba Mu's hand and said firmly, "Come and play the guitar."

Can't communicate through language? Then use music to communicate, and you will definitely be able to understand each other.

Just like before, she didn't know how to tell her grandmother about the frustrations in her heart, nor did she know how to tell her to give up the guitar. It was Saki's singing that made her clear her mind and made her think, "Yes, this is what I want to say," and finally she successfully reconciled.

Although she was also lectured by the two together, she just had to go to school and learn to integrate into society in order to protect the home that would exist for her whole life.

"But, I'm really happy." That's what Kaname thought. Having regained her precious home, she'd rediscovered the meaning of playing the guitar, though she still didn't understand her grandmother's words: "True belonging is something you have to find yourself; inherited belonging is ultimately short-lived."

In comparison, she prefers what Saki said: It is precisely because there is a place to return to that carries memories that we can embark on the journey better.

Yao Le Nai dragged Ruo Ye Mu into the space and let this strange doll girl choose the guitar,

Play with the other party; seeing that Ruoye Mu didn't choose, she directly handed a guitar to Ruoye Mu.

Holding the seven-string guitar in her arms, Ruoye Mu's breathing became heavy. What a coincidence, she also played the seven-string guitar.

Saki consoled her, "There's a saying: 'A teacher can only lead you in, but it's up to you to practice.' There are teachers in this world who aren't good at teaching, leaving students to figure things out on their own. Mu, would you like to try this kind of self-cultivation? Or do you want to find a teacher who's good at teaching?"

"I..." Wakaba Mu opened her mouth. She looked at Saki, who was concerned, and then looked at Kaname Rakuna, who was playing the guitar by herself. She really wanted Saki to help her make a decision, because this was the life she had always lived:

Whether it was her parents, Xiangzi, or other people in the family, they would help her make decisions, and she just had to obey.

But during their recent interactions, Wakaba Mu deeply understood one thing: [Saki is different from Xiang. She won't interfere in my affairs and will only let me make my own decisions, so...]

After a long while, Ruoye Mu made a decision based on his own consciousness and said weakly, "...I want to play it."

She had finally found a peer who could sing with the guitar, so of course she couldn't let it go.

Most importantly, Kaname seemed free and at ease, always hanging out at various livehouses by herself, which meant she had no ties. She didn't need to worry about her becoming Kaname's apprentice and causing trouble for Kaname, so it seemed like there was no teacher more suitable for her than Kaname.

The first lesson in life that the Ruoye couple taught her was: Don’t cause trouble for others!

Thinking of this, Wakaba Mu made up her mind. She looked at Saki and her voice became firm: "I will play it."

Chapter 102 101. The Thoughtful Girl

After playing the guitar for a while, Yao Lenai let out a long sigh: "Satisfied."

Although she is still in the process of searching for her lifelong destination, for Kaname Lenai, just being able to play the guitar is a good thing.

Because her "owner" and grandmother both told her: as long as she works hard and keeps playing, she will definitely find the most suitable home for her in this magnificent new era.

I just played a little too much today and I'm a little tired.

Kaname didn't care about her image at all and yawned loudly.

In contrast, Wakaba Mu's mood was not so good. She heard the beautiful singing of Kaname's guitar in the ensemble, and also heard the longing sound of the guitar in her hand.

[As expected... the guitar didn't sing.]

The problem that had always troubled her resurfaced; she still didn't know how to make the guitar sing.

Wakaba Mu was a little scared. She was worried that Kaname Lenai would call her a "boring girl". After all, Kaname Lenai had started yawning. She was also worried that Saki would look at her with disappointment, so she didn't dare to look up.

The girl held her guitar, saying nothing.

Feeling sleepy, Kaname Rakuna didn't think about anything. She put her precious guitar back into the guitar case, walked to Saki out of habit, and leaned straight over to her.

Although Saki made her feel uncomfortable when she first met him, after listening to the song "So I Gave Up Music," she realized that the discomfort was actually because Saki shared the same emotions as her. She never hated Saki, she just hated the unspoken, unbearable feeling that was weighing on her chest.

Since then, Kaname has always liked Saki and she wants to play guitar with Saki; if possible, she hopes that this period will be for a lifetime.

It's a pity that Saki wanted to do something else and didn't respond to her invitation to a lifetime, even though she had been so serious about delivering the matcha parfait...

As for the light green-haired girl's suggestion of making the guitar sing, she actually had some idea of ​​how to do it. But she was tired and needed to rest, so she decided to talk about it later. More importantly, she trusted Saki.

Since Saki could understand that she was troubled by unpleasant emotions and even composed a song to express those feelings, then Saki could certainly understand this girl's desire to make the guitar sing and find out the reason.

Lenai had full confidence in this, so she chose to go to bed immediately.

She thought: [If this is the case, can I let Saki stay? ]

She closed her eyes and hugged Saki.

Wakaba Mu's guitar skills were very strong and she was very focused when playing, but her emotions and thoughts were bound up, and she couldn't devote herself to the performance and express her inner voice.

This is the true reason why "the guitar wants to sing, but the player can't make it sing." At least that's what Lenai thinks.

But Rakuna didn't say anything. She just hugged Saki and was about to fall asleep.

Saki had originally wanted Rakuna to help Wakaba Mutsu solve the problem, because both children needed care and were the type to worry about. If the two of them were together, they would probably be able to take good care of each other.

I didn’t expect Lenai to choose to go to sleep directly…

Seeing Wakaba Mu immersed in negative emotions, Saki had no choice but to speak: "My personal feeling may not be quite right. If I am wrong, please don't be angry, Xiao Mu."

"I think Xiaomu's playing was so hesitant that he couldn't really put his emotions and true thoughts into the performance. That's why he felt like he couldn't make the guitar sing. It was because Xiaomu's feelings were still hidden inside, not being expressed."

After hearing Saki's understanding, Wakaba Mu raised his head in surprise, and at that moment he thought, "Oh my God, this is talking about me." He felt a sense of happiness and satisfaction as if he had found a soulmate.

She never imagined that after meeting someone who could sing with a guitar several times and even mustering up the courage to follow him, the result...

Was the person who could understand her thoughts and find out the reason by her side from the beginning? That would be too surprising, right?

If Ye Mu didn't think about why Saki didn't recommend herself for the job in the first place, she would stare at Saki closely, her voice trembling with excitement, "What should I do?"

"This is a very complicated matter, and everyone's situation is different. I'm not sure if what I'm thinking is right. I mainly wanted to let Lenai come and see. After all, her senses are very sharp, and she might be able to help Xiaomu solve the problem independently. But Lenai...she does have a bit too much freedom."

Saki laughed, looking helpless.

The child is still young, and when he is tired from playing, he just goes to sleep. There is nothing she can do about it. She can't force him to wake up, right? ^Q@袂∮爾∮ba∝6-±姨<>吴∞⑨<馓≥{０}⊙7；∷

Another thing is that it is one thing to roughly guess the cause, but it is of course another to talk about the solution.

Saki is not Wakaba Mutsu, so how can she know what Wakaba Mutsu is thinking?

You can’t just say something outrageous like, “Actually, all you need to do is open your heart. If you can’t do that… maybe there’s something wrong with you mentally,” right?

Although this possibility is very high, and Wakaba Mu's personal performance also points to this, what exactly caused Wakaba Mu to close his heart?

Was it a childhood accident? Was it family issues? Or a combination of both? Different causes lead to different, even drastically different, solutions.

To deal with this kind of thing,

All operations need to be carried out with extreme caution.

Judging from the current situation, if Ye Mu obviously couldn't explain the reason to her, she naturally couldn't act rashly.

"Speaking of which, Xiao Mu, are you having fun playing guitar with Xiao Lenai?" Saki adjusted Lenai's posture, then leaned down so that his eyes were at the same level as Wakaba Mu's, with only encouragement on his face.

She wanted to hear Ruoye Mu's true feelings, even if they were unpleasant. No, it should be said that it would be better that way.

The reason why Ruoye Mu was unwilling to speak was obviously because he had said something wrong and was blamed or even scolded.

Regardless of the impact this factor has on Ruoye Mu, she must do her best to overcome it. Perhaps, as she grows and changes, Ruoye Mu will be able to tell her the real reason for closing her heart, and then they can work together to find a solution.

Saki was looking forward to it.

Looking at the gentle girl who was full of expectations, Ruo Yemu opened his mouth, slowly lowered his head, and said nothing.

Saki immediately understood Wakaba Mu's silent answer: "In other words, he's unhappy."

In Saki's opinion, as far as the answer of "yes" or "no" is concerned, Wakaba Mu is actually quite easy to understand: looking at her intently means "yes", and keeping his head down and saying nothing means "no".

If Ye Mu was an honest child, she would not lie; but at the same time, she was a thoughtful child. She knew that a negative answer would make people unhappy, so she simply kept silent and answered with body language.

She didn't care whether others could understand her answer or not. At least, silence is less hurtful than denial, right?

After hearing Saki's judgment, Wakaba Mu lowered her head even lower. She stared at the tip of her shoes, her mind full of nervousness and panic. She was worried that her answer would make Saki feel uncomfortable, and she was also worried that Saki would simply ignore her.

Negative emotions intertwined and converged, turning into a terrifying cloud that seemed to be baring fangs and claws, hanging over the girl's heart.

Chapter 103 102. Sincerity and Response

I messed up again, once again...

Wakaba Mutsu lowered his head, not knowing what expression to use when facing Saki.

It's true that she's unhappy, and she won't lie. But this attitude seems to deny Saki's concern and Lenna's company, doesn't it? This doesn't seem good.

If Saki gets angry and stops caring about her, it seems natural, right?

Because Saki had nothing to do with her in the first place. Both Shoko and her mother, Minami Mori, had asked Saki to take care of her without her permission, but Saki had never had that obligation, had she?

Thinking of this, Ruo Yemu became even more scared. She had finally seen the dawn of making the guitar sing, and she really didn't want to miss it!

At this time, the voice in her heart said: (Xiao Mu, I have always been Xiao Mu's companion. Xiao Mu is so sad, and I am sad too. So, why don't you let me handle this matter. I also want to help Xiao Mu.)

Wakaba Mu opened his eyes wide and his pupils began to shrink.

But it was at this moment that Ruo Yemu felt a warm hand falling on her back and gently stroking it; at the same time, a warm and soft embrace came towards her.

Saki took the initiative to lean on Wakaba Mu's shoulder and comforted him softly, "I can understand how you feel, Mu. It's not that you're unhappy playing guitar with Lena, but you're unhappy because you can't make the guitar sing, isn't it?"

Wakaba Mu's breathing stopped for a moment, and her pupils instantly returned to normal size. She felt Saki's warm embrace and had a strong urge to hug Saki.

Although she was already hugged by Saki, this alone was not enough. This was a one-sided kindness. She wanted to respond to Saki's kindness and express her gratitude.

"Honesty is a virtue, and I think Xiaomu did the right thing. However, if Xiaomu could have thought about my suggestion a little and expressed his thoughts, it would have completely eliminated the possibility of anyone getting hurt."

"Although Lenai can completely understand what Mu meant, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't say anything, others may not be able to understand. So, if you encounter a similar situation next time, please speak your mind, okay?"

"Xiao Lenai, I, and everyone who truly cares about Xiao Mu will stand by Xiao Mu."

Wakaba Mu's hands trembled slightly as she carefully raised them and slowly embraced Saki. Then, as if relieved, she murmured, "Yeah."

She felt an indescribable tremor in her heart, and her eyes began to ache. She hadn't felt this way for a long time.

After a long moment, Wakaba Mu let out a long sigh and uttered a thankful voice: "Thank...thank you. It's great to meet Saki."

Saki continued to caress the girl's back and praised her, "Good girl, good girl."

Human beings' ability to self-regulate is actually very strong. As long as the person is not knocked down in one breath, he or she can adjust himself or herself fully and thus develop a certain tendency. Therefore, there is no need to say too much at this time, you just need to prove that you are standing by the girl.

Space was originally intended to be Leuna's home, so Saki quickly returned this magical cat to Tsuzuki Shifune, who had been watching for a while, and asked the grandmother to take good care of her own granddaughter.

Seeing Kaname Rakuna and Wakaba Mutsu's reliance on Saki, and also seeing that Wakaba Mutsu was full of worries, the white-haired old man with a touch of highlights on his forehead didn't say much, but just reminded: "Don't try to handle everything by yourself. If you need anything, we adults are here for you."

"Eh~ But why do I remember that a certain lady boss couldn't even manage her own granddaughter?" Without Yoruka's "restraint", Saki can give it his all: his pretty eyebrows are slightly raised, pretending to be puzzled; his free right hand covers the corner of his lips, as if to hide his smile.

To be frank, it's completely ironic. Anyway, it's okay to randomly criticize someone for not respecting the elderly and loving the young.

But Saki wasn't that kind of person. She immediately adjusted her mood and demeanor, and replied with full energy, "Don't worry, I'm not the type to push through anything. I'm sorry to bother Lenai and the boss lady today. Go to bed early. If you feel exhausted, it's okay to close for two days."

Tsuzuki Shifune was just about to say a few words to Saki when she was met with a wave of concern from Saki. She couldn't even lecture or thank him. She could only laugh and scold, "You kid."

What surprised the two was that before leaving, Wakaba Mu took the initiative to hold Saki's hand and asked Saki to wait for her for a while. Then she took the initiative to thank Kaname Rakuna and Tsuzuki Shifune: "Thank you for today, Rakuna, and the boss lady."

The way she spoke was very stiff, but she was trying very hard.

Wakaba Mutsu followed Saki's advice and tried to embrace the world and his true self.

Tsuzuki Poetry Ship looked serious as always, but there was a hint of tenderness in his words: "Well, you're welcome to come and play next time."

In fact, I wanted to say something like "Runa, this kid..." and wanted the girls to treat Runa as an ordinary girl and make friends with her, but she is a serious, strict person who is not good at expressing emotions. In the end, she kept everything in her heart.

Saki sent Wakaba Mutsu back to the Wakaba family's mansion without saying a word along the way.

But before parting, Wakaba Mu grabbed Saki's hand again and asked, "Saki, um, about holding on..."

Inexplicably listening to the poetry boat of Tsuzuki

Speaking of this matter, Ruo Yemu took it to heart.

Although she couldn't even handle her own affairs, she was worried because Saki cared about her and encouraged her so much. She wanted to thank Saki and repay Saki. Even if Saki was facing something that she was powerless to do, she wanted to do her best.

She wanted to thank Saki, that was all.

Saki showed her kindness, and she returned it with kindness, which she took for granted.

"Well, it's about work-life balance. I'm trying hard to adjust. When I can't hold on any longer, I'll take a day off to rest."

"Speaking of which, Xiao Mu, although the boss lady always has a serious look on her face, she is actually a gentle person at heart. Although she is not good at expressing herself, she did something that made Xiao Lenai very angry and sad..."

Saki explained briefly and then began to divert Wakaba Mu's attention. She didn't want to reveal anyone's secrets, but simply said that she had done Space a great favor, so she could naturally joke with the seemingly serious lady.

"I'm a burden to Saki." Hearing Saki say this, Wakaba Mu began to blame herself. She felt that she was a bad child for being a burden to Saki.

Seeing Wakaba Mutsuki in an inexplicable mood, Saki gave him a big hug without saying a word, patting his head and back, and at the same time comforting him: "It's not Mutsuki's fault. Rather, I'm very happy that Mutsuki cares about me so much. Mutsuki is such a good child."
