For the peace of the Lonely Band, please sacrifice yourself!

"Instead of sitting here scratching your head and wondering if your classmates have secretly won the exam, you might as well use your brain and legs to work. The get out of class has been over for ten minutes now. Based on my understanding of the school canteen, I guess your favorite lunch, fried noodles and strawberry yogurt, which is also the most popular lunch in the canteen, is now almost gone."

As the ringtone in the Bluetooth headset sounded on time, Mochizuki Shuo straightened up. He rubbed his brows and rolled his eyes at Mu Yan Zhenren who was about to turn into sad ash. "Okay, then you guys continue. I have something to do. Bye."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yueshuo's handsome face, which looked like Pan An, revealed an expression that showed he wanted to be lazy but had no choice because of his responsibility.

"Where...is he going?" Master Mu Yan tried clumsily to change the subject.

"Nonsense, of course I'm going to find my junior schoolmate, otherwise I'd be lonely and miserable like you, eating cold and dry bread to survive?" Jojima Sata sneered and looked over with disdain, as if he was ashamed to be in her company. He then stretched and turned around leisurely.

Although he was very unhappy, it seemed that what they said was not wrong. The depressed Mu Yan Zhenren gritted his teeth, but he could do nothing but sulk alone. He looked up and saw the back of Jojima Sata leaving in a cool manner. He couldn't help but frowned and asked curiously: "......No, what about you, what are you going to do then?"

"Of course I'm going to the cafeteria to eat with my girlfriend. Otherwise, why would I be sad with you two in this empty classroom?" Jojima Sata gave him a 'look at you idiot' look in response.

"Not....you....me....her.....!!!!!!"

Master Mu Yan just stared in amazement as his 'former best friend' held the hand of the girl at the door, and the two of them walked away from his sight, talking and laughing. Only the adolescent boy with a broken heart and empty tears fell to his knees on the ground, shaking uncontrollably.

........

Perhaps because the day after tomorrow is Halloween, in the music room, Kita Ikuyo, who had just finished piano practice, excitedly blinked her golden eyes that seemed to spread light, and approached Goto Ichiri, asking expectantly, "Ichiri-chan, what are your plans for tomorrow?"

"Ah... Mingtian?" Goto Ichiri seemed a little confused about the situation.

"Yeah, because the day after tomorrow is Halloween, according to custom, there will be a big parade on the night of October 10st, so my friend and I plan to wear Halloween costumes to participate!" Kita Ikuyo blinked and invited warmly: "If Ichiri-chan doesn't have other activities tomorrow, would you like to spend it with us?"

Welcoming Halloween?

The following picture suddenly appeared in Goto Ichiri's mind:

As the clock struck twelve, the bright moon that should have been hanging high in the night sky disappeared for some reason, and the night returned to darkness, with no one able to see one's hand in front of one's face.

The colorful lights on both sides of the street swayed in the cold evening breeze. The colorful lights intertwined together, illuminating the hanging objects and streamers in the streets and alleys. The streets that should have been crowded with people were not crowded with a single person. Only the roars of unknown animals eating echoed.

The light from the street lamps filtered through the fog that drifted across the street, casting disturbing shadows.

Blue lightning suddenly fell.

A ferocious red light appeared in the darkness.

The costumes of the crowd became more terrifying and distorted, with tattered zombie costumes and bloody facial makeup, as if they had just crawled out of the grave, vampires in black and red cloaks, baring their sharp fangs and laughing hideously, and mentally ill patients in exquisite purple suits, their eyes full of fanaticism and madness.

‘Squeak~’

They didn't know what they stepped on, but the next moment, they all looked at Goto Ichiri who made the sound.

Alas! ! ! ! !

So scary, so scary, so scary, so scary, so scary!!!

"Forget it, I want to accompany Erli..."

Goto Ichiri shook his head in panic.

"What about Senior Mochizuki?" Kita Ikuyo turned to look at Mochizuki Saku who was eating his bento with relish.

"Sorry, I have something to do tomorrow and can't accompany you." Wang Yueshuo shook his head.

"OK then."

Kita Ikuyo said this with some regret, but in the blink of an eye she became lively and cheerful again and went to Goto Ichiri to ask for advice on guitar techniques.

........

October 10st, Halloween Eve.

At seven o'clock in the morning, Mochizuki Saku had his bedroom door knocked on by Mochizuki Rin, who was dressed as a 'little witch'. The girl lifted her ink-black hair, revealing her pointed little fangs, and greeted her with a smile, making a threatening gesture.

"trick or treat!"

"Are you a child?"

"Is there a child as cute as me? QVQ!"

Mochizuki Rin stretched out a finger on each hand and put it on both sides of her cheek, tilting her head to act cute.

"Uh..." Wang Yueshuo's words were stuck in his mouth, and a sense of absurdity suddenly arose in his heart.

"Hehe~ I'm much cuter than a child! I'm the most well-behaved and obedient sister!"

Mochizuki Rin tilted his head back and hummed twice in joy.

Chapter 12: Urgent, urgent, urgent, family crisis, hurry up!

Breakfast was the usual candied date porridge and boiled eggs. In order to satisfy his own appetite, Wang Yueshuo even used the electric baking pan to make three hand-pulled pancakes, peeled the eggs, rolled them in the pancakes and flattened them, then happily ate a bite of the pancake and drank a mouthful of the stomach-warming porridge. It was such a wonderful thing.

"It would be nice if there were some more pickles." Wang Yueshuo muttered casually, and suddenly remembered that there was a small jar of cold bamboo shoots and a small plate of cold kelp in the refrigerator. He hurriedly got up and took them, happily putting them into the wraps.

When I took a bite, the taste was not far from what I remembered.

It tasted okay, but it didn't taste like pickles after all. Wang Yueshuo shook his head and planned to buy a few bottles of Chinese pickles online after dinner so that he could have a good and full breakfast in the future. He could also buy a few more bottles of Fuling pickled mustard tuber, Lao Gan Ma, and chili oil.

Would you like to buy one or two boxes?

Speaking of which, even though he has lived in this world for almost 19 years, Wang Yueshuo still prefers the food of China in his previous life, and even his habits are mostly from his previous life. Sometimes he suddenly feels that what he is doing now seems to have been done many times, with a strong sense of déjà vu, and he can even imagine what will happen next, and the subsequent development of things is almost the same as he imagined.

"Brother, brother!" Mochizuki Rin's shout pulled Mochizuki Saku back from his increasingly sad and heavy thoughts. "There will be a Halloween performance at Iris Park at 7pm!" The girl pushed the screen of her mobile phone in front of her brother's eyes, and her gray-brown eyes reflected the colorful lights and a huge parade car.

It is now the end of October. The blue sky has been setting since 4 or 5 pm. By 7 pm, it is still dark and windy. Without lights, you can't see your hand in front of you. Focus on the new moon and read the above activities and tips carefully.

“Activity 1: Magic Pumpkin (i.e. Pumpkin Digging Competition)”

"The pumpkins are provided by the organizers. Participants use the tools provided to process and transform the pumpkins in any way. After completion, they will be displayed on site for everyone present to see. Some leaders of each association, guests, and the organizers will serve as judges to determine the first, second, and third prizes and give them awards."

“Activity 2: Night parade of ghosts and monsters with lanterns (parade performance)”

"'Women in strange costumes are especially pretty, and men in unusual costumes are even more handsome'. Participants can design all kinds of strange costumes by themselves, and they can have fun in various ways without any safety risks. Cosplayers invited for Halloween will also board the 'giant pumpkin car' to perform and parade."

“Activity Three:….”

"It sounds interesting." Wang Yueshuo finished browsing and gave an objective evaluation.

"Right, right! How about we go take a look together tonight, unnie!" Mochizuki Rin was a little excited. It was her first time to participate in the Halloween celebration at Iris Park in Tokyo. Just seeing the pictures of the decorations displayed on the organizer's announcement ignited her strong interest.

"If you want to go, I'm fine with it." Wang Yueshuo didn't care. After all, it wouldn't take much time to finish his holiday homework and review his lessons. Going out with his sister for Halloween could be a good way to pass the time.

"Um...it seems...I probably can't go." Mochizuki Rin said suddenly. Her fingers holding the phone trembled slightly. She was envious at first, but then turned to regret. She looked at Mochizuki Shuo and said with some gloating: "Sister Mio and Sister Ritsu are coming to our house to play,

————Also, Mom will be back tonight."

"That's a good thing."

It seemed as if there were deafening firecrackers blasting in Wang Yueshuo's ears, and his brain was unable to react for a moment.

"Wait, what did you say, Mom's coming home tonight————???"

The boy's face turned pale from the expected joy at the beginning, as if he was tied up by a ruthless capitalist boss and forced to work overtime for a month without a pay raise. His clear and bright eyes also ended up being dim.

"Puchi~" Mochizuki Rin covered her mouth and chuckled, her obsidian eyes flashing with a look of amusement, "Brother's dream of sleeping in the same quilt with my arms around me tonight is over! Hehe." Mochizuki Rin laughed happily, and when she saw the sad look from her sister, her smile became even brighter.

Wang Yueshuo rubbed his eyebrows and his left eyelid suddenly twitched.

I always feel like...something big is going to happen...

Mochizuki Saku thought about it and suggested: "How about... you reject Mio and the others, and then the two of us sneak out to play?" "I don't think that's a good idea." Mochizuki Rin replied immediately.

Although it sounds like your idea is tempting, it is more interesting to be a spectator and have fun than to act in a drama by yourself!!!

Mochizuki Saku looked up at Mochizuki Rin: "When will they come?"

"Sister Mio said she's on her way here. It might take another half an hour?" Mochizuki Rin answered uncertainly.

"It's not too late." Wang Yueshuo breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and returned to the bedroom.

Mochizuki Rin was left alone, not knowing what was going on, blinking her eyes with a look of curiosity.

Do you have any solution to this problem? Let me see!

..........

October 31st, late autumn.

The orange-red leaves gently drift down the street, like a series of sunset photos, or a series of flowing paintings, rendering the romance of the city in late autumn. The sun shines through the gaps in the leaves onto the street, with a tranquil color tone, and the soft warm light dapples on the boy's lazy face.

The sky was high and vast, the wind was gentle and the clouds were thin, and Wang Yueshuo was feeling high and proud. His cheerful mood was shattered by a gust of cold wind. He hid half of his face in the collar of his jacket and quietly quickened his pace.

The autumn streets are covered with layers of fallen leaves, which are warm and soft, making people's hearts become softer involuntarily. White canvas shoes step on the golden fallen leaves, and the crisp "trampling" sound is mixed with the faint fragrance of the season, which is refreshing.

"Have you arrived at the station yet?"

"Not yet. It will probably take another five or six minutes."

The girl on the other side of the screen looked up and made a judgment.

"That's great. I can catch up soon."

"To be honest, it would be more relaxing to stay at home. I wanted to go to the supermarket to buy vegetables and meat when I came here." Akiyama Mio complained.

"It's a holiday, why don't we go out for a walk? I think Lu thinks so too." Wang Yueshuo was also helpless.

The tiger at home is too ferocious. Isn't it just torture to take you two little girls with you?

Chapter 13: Are we going to eat hotpot later?

It was still early in the morning, and the street lights on both sides of the street were gradually going out. More and more workers in suits were walking hurriedly, and vehicles were passing by in an endless stream.

Akiyama Mio put her hands in the pockets of her windbreaker, looked at the street in the distance, then looked up at the morning sun, feeling inexplicably happy.

As the saying goes, a day's plan begins in the morning, the ancients were right.

Feeling refreshed, with clear thoughts and her brain working exceptionally smoothly, Akiyama Mio felt that she had a full day to think about what to do in the evening and the future. The fleeting inspiration that slipped by from time to time was grasped by the girl and turned into one of the components of the next song for the after-school tea party.

Not far away, Wang Yueshuo waved his arms: "You came so early, I almost didn't make it." From the sound of his voice, he seemed to be complaining.

Humph, isn't it you who changed my plan midway?

Originally, it would have been better to hold today's event at your home. It would have been convenient and would have given me more opportunities. Thinking of this, Akiyama Mio's eyes became more resentful.

The cool girl stretched out her fingertips and gently lifted the cascading black hair that was brushing against her face, as if she had lifted up a clear stream, flowing over her shoulders and across her face, lightly and gracefully.

But considering that you took the initiative to invite me to the Halloween parade, I'll forgive you.

The dark brown eyes, like the autumn lake water, appeared exceptionally clear and bright, reflecting the handsome face of the boy walking towards him from afar. A gentle smile was revealed under the elegant makeup, like a gentle deer in the woods, making the latter feel warm and comfortable, and subconsciously wanting to get closer.

Wang Yueshuo: "Good morning, have you had breakfast?"

Akiyama Mio: "Good morning, we two just came here after eating."

Tianzhong Ritsu: "Ahahaha~Saku! I bought some hot oden at the nearest convenience store at the last stop. Eating a juicy radish on such a cold day is truly the ultimate bliss in life!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she raised the oden with a few skewers in her hand. In the paper cup were bamboo rolls, fish tofu, white radish and other things.

Wang Yueshuo took a look at the attire of the two young and beautiful girls and his eyes lit up.

The sunlight shines through the leaves onto the road, the warm tones make people feel tranquil and soft, the orange-yellow fallen leaves dance like colorful butterflies, Akiyama Mio with long straight black hair wears a camel-colored trench coat, blending with the surrounding scenery, as if she is a part of this season, the collar of the trench coat is casually turned up, revealing her delicate neck line.

Her well-developed breasts made the white lined sweatshirt raise up a perfect arc, like the undulating snow-capped hills. The hem of her windbreaker was just below her knees, revealing a pair of flawless, straight, slender legs like jade. Her delicate and soft feet were wearing a pair of brown patent leather women's short high heels, which made a 'pa pa' sound as they stepped on the fallen leaves.

Tianzhong Ritsu wore a loose sweater with an interesting English sentence embroidered on it, a pair of washed blue jeans on the lower body, and a pair of black high-top canvas shoes on her feet. She looked cute and a little naughty. The whole look gave Mochizuki Saku a feeling of full energy, which was very consistent with her personality.

The brown hair was gently blown by the autumn breeze. The girl had a pretty face and bright eyes. Her jeans were close-fitting and comfortable, showing off her slender and graceful legs. Her shoes stepped on the fallen leaves, making a rustling sound, as if accompanying the end of this autumn.

The arrival of two young and beautiful girls added a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere to the street, making the end of this autumn even more beautiful.

Mochizuki Saku reluctantly withdrew his gaze and took the handbag from Akiyama Mio with a smile, "My car is nearby, let's go."

"Where's Rin-chan? Is she also in the car?" Tianzhong Ritsu blinked and asked curiously.

"No, she said that there have been a lot of new game updates and activities recently, so she wants to use all her free time to collect materials and conquer new dungeons." Wang Yueshuo shook his head. He had no way to deal with this internet-addicted girl.

"Okay then." Tianzhong Ritsu nodded, 'I see', "So where should we go next?"

To be honest, Wang Yueshuo didn't have a clear idea about this matter. After all, his original idea was to lie down at home and rest for a day to gather his energy to seek inspiration for the band's next hit song "The Peach Blossom Spring in the Dreamland".

Because of the recent academic pressure, the boy hated going out and shopping and just wanted to stay at home. But when he heard that Akiyama Mio and Tianaka Ritsu were coming to his house to spend Halloween, he was overjoyed and felt extremely happy.

Unfortunately, my mom is coming back tonight.

So, I have to run!

Not only does it have to be smooth, but it also has to be smooth beautifully, without any flaws, so Wang Yueshuo gritted his teeth and hardened his heart to send his sister, who was willing to be his 'wingman', home as bait to deal with his mother who would become extremely excited during every holiday.

So, I guess that's it, right?

Things were developing steadily according to Mochizuki Saku's plan, and the boy felt relieved.
