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

"What is your position?"

"Keyboard player."

"......"

Mrs. Mochizuki knew the news she wanted to know. She thought about it for a while, then raised her head and asked, "One last question. Will forming a band affect your studies?"

"No." Wang Yueshuo said firmly, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He felt as if he was two or three years younger, full of strength and vigor. If his parents did not support him in forming a band, he would have to make major changes to his plans for the future Crystal Palace.

"As for academics, I've already received news from the piano department at Tokyo University of the Arts and am just waiting for the interview notification, so you don't have to worry, mom," added Mochizuki Saku.

"So you want to continue pursuing music?"

"Well, my current plan is to further my studies in piano." Mochizuki Saku nodded.

Mrs. Mochizuki looked at the young man in front of her, who was so graceful, so eloquent, and as warm and radiant as the sunrise, and could not help but curl the corners of her mouth into an elegant and gentle smile. Her beautiful dark brown eyes seemed to contain a pool of clear water, reflecting the treasure that made her proud for the rest of her life.

"When will you bring the girls from your band home? Let mom meet them." After talking about what she was most concerned about, such as Mochizuki Shuo's further studies, the lady smiled and returned to the most popular and interesting topic of love, while holding up her face.

"Ah, about that... um, I'll ask them when they have time."

"Hehe, Ichiri-chan and the others will definitely be happy to see their mom!" Mochizuki Rin cheered while watching the fun.

"Ichiri...chan? Oh, you mean the girl from the Goto family?" Upon hearing the familiar name Ichiri, Mrs. Mochizuki looked nostalgic. The little figure with long pink hair who always followed Mochizuki Saku appeared in her mind. Suddenly realizing something, she turned around and asked with a smile, "Is your brother in a band with her?"

"Yeah! With Sister Hongxia, Sister Liang, and Kita-chan~" Mochizuki Rin added happily.

"Haha, I'm really looking forward to the day when I can meet them." Mrs. Mochizuki also narrowed her eyes.

Looking at the two women at home who were singing in unison, Mochizuki Shuo took a deep breath and felt that he needed to think carefully about inviting everyone from the band to visit his home.

Chapter 53: Moon-Moon Yogurt

"Hey, Wangyue, can you lend me your summer homework for me to copy?"

As Mochizuki Saku was walking on the way to school at Xiuhua High School, a familiar voice hurriedly passed by his ear, followed by a hand resting on his shoulder.

"Go back to class and get it yourself."

Mochizuki Saku knew without even a second thought who the person who suddenly appeared was, and he casually shook his shoulders and shook the hand away, "Oh, it's really unlucky. The first person I see at the beginning of the school year is you, a bastard." He turned his head, squinted his eyes in doubt, and looked at Jojima who appeared in his sight.

"? What do you mean!" Jojima was instantly furious, grimacing and reaching out to strangle Mochizuki Saku's neck.

"Hehe, I'm just telling the truth." Wang Yueshuo sneered disdainfully.

"Ah! Good morning! Mochizuki-senpai!"

As soon as Mochizuki Saku broke free from the confinement of Kaesong Island, he heard a sweet voice that sounded like white porcelain plum soup in midsummer and the clinking of broken ice against the wall. The next moment, the owner of the voice, the energetic figure of Kita Ikuyo, came to his side, approaching at a speed slightly slower than him.

"Good morning, Kita-chan. You're so lively so early in the morning."

"Hehe~ Senior Mochizuki doesn't seem to be in much spirits." Kita Ikuyo smiled while covering her mouth as she looked at Mochizuki Saku who was yawning lazily.

"Ah, a normal reaction on the first day of school..." Mochizuki Saku shook his head helplessly, "Back to school syndrome."

"Didn't you sleep well last night and stayed up late again?" Kita Ikuyo blinked and asked curiously.

"Ah, I came to practice the song. I didn't pay attention to the time. It was almost two in the morning when I finished practicing."

"You can't do that." Kita Ikuyo raised a finger and warned seriously: "I heard from the doctor that staying up late for a long time will not only accelerate the aging of the skin and reduce immunity, but also cause endocrine disorders and have a serious impact on eyesight. A friend of mine in junior high school stayed up late to play games and use his phone, and his eyes became nearsighted."

"Okay, okay, I understand." Wang Yueshuo nodded repeatedly.

"Emmmm..." Mochizuki Saku's performance was really unbelievable. Kita Ikuyo frowned and pondered for a moment, then suddenly an idea came to her mind. A meaningful gleam flashed in her golden eyes, "How about this, I will urge Senior Mochizuki to go to bed! I will call you on video at around 10:30 every night to remind you that it's time to go to bed, how about that?"

I am such a little genius! Kita Ikuyo thought to herself.

Not only can I see Senior Mochizuki at night and chat with him late at night, but I can also integrate into his daily life without realizing it, making my sleep reminder an important part of his daily life that cannot be ignored!

When she thought of this, the girl's delicate little heart began to beat wildly.

"Ah, you don't need it?" Wang Yueshuo was shocked.

This feeling....why does it feel like I'm a weak husband whose schedule is strictly regulated by my strong wife?

"This is too much trouble, Xiduo."

"No, no, the most important thing now is Senior's health!" Kita Ikuyo hurriedly shook her head. This was a precious time to chat with Brother Mochizuki who was in a state of sleep at night. She was happy that she couldn't come, so how could she find it troublesome?

Before Mochizuki Saku could politely refuse, Kita Ikuyo took the lead and said, "How about this, let's try it tonight. If Mochizuki-senpai really finds it troublesome and feels that his life is restricted and uncomfortable, then you can refuse, okay?"

Ah this......

Kita Ikuyo's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her clear eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, appearing foggy. Her pitiful look made Mochizuki Saku feel that ruthlessly rejecting the girl's request would be a sin that would bring him punishment from heaven and hell, and his soul would suffer torment and torture, so he had to nod in agreement.

Great!

Kita Ikuyo's little heart instantly jumped with joy.

"Um...Senior Mochizuki, I almost forgot to ask, who is this?" The girl quickly noticed that there was a stranger next to Mochizuki Shuo. The joy on her face instantly disappeared, and she elegantly brushed the red hair behind her ears.

"Oh, I'm just an ordinary classmate." Mochizuki Saku finally remembered Jojima, the guy who was just watching the fun and eating lemons. He looked at Jojima who looked dumbfounded and explained, "He came to me to borrow his summer homework."

"Hello, senior." Kita Ikuyo bowed slightly politely.

"Ah, good morning, Kita-chan." Jojima was not a slow person. He could see with his two big eyes that the relationship between Mochizuki Saku and Kita Ikuyo was extraordinary. He also had some guesses of his own in his heart. The love story between the sunny and cheerful junior and the cold and sarcastic senior instantly occupied his mind.

"Hey, Senior, do you know me?"

“Haha, there are few people in Xiuhua High School who don’t know the name of Kita-chan…” Jojima praised her generously, “After all, you are a sunny, cheerful, and trustworthy junior with nicknames like [Shuihua High School’s Takamine Haitang] and [First-year Goddess]. You are very popular among the student body.”

"Although this is the first time we met, I can tell from her performance that their praise is not empty words. She deserves such praise."

"Ahaha... I'm not as great as you say, senior." After being praised so highly by Jojima, Kita Ikuyo blushed a little embarrassedly and scratched her cheek. Her gray pleated skirt swayed in front and behind her knees in the wind.

"Oh, by the way, Kita-chan, have you had breakfast?" Seeing that their conversation was becoming awkward, Mochizuki Saku pulled out a box of strawberry yogurt from his schoolbag.

"Ah, I've eaten it, but thank you anyway, Senior Mochizuki!" Kita Ikuyo took the yogurt handed over by Mochizuki Saku, glanced at the familiar red, blue and white cover on the yogurt box, and felt happy.

Brother Wangyue, do you still remember that I like to drink this brand of yogurt?

"It's okay to eat it. Yogurt helps digestion."

"Hey, hey, hey, Wangyue, I haven't eaten yet. Do you have any yogurt? Can you give me a box of it?"

"Who are you?" Mochizuki Shuo raised his eyebrows, looked at Chengdao who was offering his hand for free, shook his head and sighed: "Sorry, I don't know you, so I can't... Hey, you can't argue so you have to fight, right?!"

"You are such a double standard!"

"Who told you not to be a young, beautiful and gentle girl?" Wang Yueshuo retorted nonchalantly.

"Can any beautiful girl drink Mochizuki-san's yogurt?" Jojima smiled maliciously and spoke in a delicate voice.

"Get out of here right now! And don't even think about cheating my homework!" Mochizuki Saku looked nauseated, and the breakfast he had just eaten was almost vomited out by Shirojima's pretentiousness.

Chapter 54: Butler Cafe

".......I believe that the efforts of all students over the past two years will eventually bear the most beautiful fruits during the common examination. Let us applaud ourselves for our hard work. Okay, that's the end of the summary." Standing on the podium, Hasegawa Kaede, the head teacher of Class 1, Grade 3, wearing black-framed glasses, closed the notebook, put one hand on the desk, and said lazily:

"Next, let's talk about the Xiuhua Campus Festival that will be held at school next month. Now is almost time to decide on our class activities at that time. Since it's the class meeting, why don't we discuss what everyone wants to do."

I almost forgot about the campus festival.

The Xiuhua High School Campus Festival is held for two consecutive days from October 1st to 2nd every year. It is usually planned and prepared by the Student Union and distributed to each class and club, requiring every student to participate in at least one activity. Of course, participating in the activities will also give students extra credits as usual.

Xiuhua is very flexible in this regard. If a student cannot participate in activities due to physical or psychological reasons, he or she can participate in the logistics department prepared by the Student Union, or report to the class teacher to ask for leave.

"This is the last campus festival for everyone at Xiuhua. I hope you can participate as much as possible. Please cherish the time you can still play with your classmates and leave behind beautiful memories of your high school years at Xiuhua High School."

Hasegawa Kaede asked the class monitor to record on the blackboard and solicit activity themes from other classmates.

"How about a haunted house? I think our class did that last year as well."

"I've already been to the haunted house~ I think the best thing is food, octopus balls, egg fried rice, and fried noodles, how about that? They're easy to make and not likely to fail!"

"I suggest opening a dessert shop! Selling desserts like macarons and crepes!"

"Ah, Mr. Hasegawa!" Muren raised his arms high.

Mochizuki Saku held his chin up, looked at Jojima Sata who stood up with his chest and head held high, and announced loudly:

"I want to open a maid cafe!"

“Ah————Ah————!!!” This is the boy who is in awe.

“Huh?????????????” This is the girl with a look of disgust on her face.

Female students took the lead in launching a wave of opposition————

"Hey, you guys haven't watched too much anime, have you?!"

"This is not the second dimension! Please return to reality!"

"Kimo!"

"How...how can you say that! This is the last school festival for all the students in our Class 2! We must create a different memory...hey!" Shirojima slapped the wooden table repeatedly, and the pair of big eyes under his brown hair burst into dazzling light. He turned his head to look at Mu Yan who was lying on the table and laughing wildly. That was the mastermind behind his instructions. Suddenly, he felt a sense of betrayal as if he had been deceived by the world.

"Master Mu Yan, you actually betrayed me!" Jojima Sata's eyes were bloodshot.

"Puchi——hahahaha..." Masamune Mu Yan slammed the table and laughed wildly, but he soon received the beast-like gaze from his class teacher who made him sew his mouth shut consciously. He could only blink his eyes frantically to express his happy mood.

"You are really a first-born." Wang Yueshuo took a breath and praised.

"Don't you, Mochizuki, want to hear a girl elegantly lift her skirt and say to you: 'Welcome home, Director'?!!!" Hearing Mochizuki Saku's voice, Kijima Souta was like he had found a fellow conspirator. He exhaled hot air and stared at the boy with lightning eyes.

"I'm sorry, Jojima...it's time for you to learn to be more mature." Mochizuki Saku sighed bitterly, avoiding the gaze of his 'best friend' and silently activated his skill - Holy Cut.

"Even you...?" Jojima Sata's eyes went dark, and he suddenly felt that living alone in the world was really bleak, with devastation everywhere and the whole world as his enemy. He helplessly grabbed the school badge on his chest, and looked at the head teacher Hasegawa on the podium desperately. As if he had found a life-saving straw, he suddenly spoke:

"Hasegawa sensei! You must understand me, right?!"

"???"

Hasegawa Kaede really didn't expect that he would be involved in this. He coughed twice, raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet for a while so that he could say a few words. He supported his hands on the podium and looked around, feeling as if he was reviewing his troops on a battlefield.

"It's good to have your own hobbies, but....it shouldn't affect reality too much."

"Sensei!"

It hurts, it hurts too much!

Souta Kijima just felt like a clown being entertained by everyone. His handsome face seemed to be wearing a mask of pain, and instantly wrinkled into a chrysanthemum.

“Sensei! Although maid cafes are not feasible, I think butler cafes are quite promising! If we send Mochizuki and the others to wear the black and white butler uniforms, they will surely shine at the school festival!” A female classmate raised her hand and stood up, pushing her red-framed glasses on the bridge of her nose, and expressed her opinion in a melancholy and frustrated manner.

"Ah?" Mochizuki Shuo, who was just a bystander, had a confused expression.

"Mochizuki-san will look super handsome in the butler uniform!"

"I really want to hear Mochizuki say, 'Welcome back, Princess!'"

“Some people understand.”

"I support!"

"Am looking forward to!"

The female students immediately started chattering.

"Heh... ignorant woman." Jojima Sata reluctantly let go of his hand, looked at the lines on his palm, recalled the junior school girl Kita who had a close relationship with Mochizuki Saku on the way to school in the morning, then raised his head and glanced at the female classmates in the class, he felt that there was a world of difference between the two.

"It doesn't make sense..." This kind of thing sounds very troublesome. The well-behaved and lazy Wang Yueshuo just wants to watch the show and doesn't want to get involved in this matter at all.

"Alright, alright!" Hasegawa Kaede knocked on the podium:

"We use a very democratic voting system."

...

In the end, Butler Café was adopted by Hasegawa's homeroom teacher with a score of 20 votes and submitted to the school as the theme for the school festival of Class 1, Grade 3.

"Now that we've decided on the Butler Café, what about the clothing issue?" asked the attentive teacher.

"We can borrow from a nearby clothing store. I know a clothing store and I'm very familiar with the owner there. I can ask her to prepare enough clothes for the boys in our class!" The culprit who made Mochizuki Shuo stand in front of everyone raised his hand again.

Moon New Moon: ???

Why do I feel like she came prepared?

"Okay! Then I'll leave it to you to prepare, Hashizaka!" Teacher Hasegawa liked students who were well prepared and nodded with satisfaction.
