After saying that, she looked at Ito Rin again and discussed the next plan.

Hiroi Kikuri did not hesitate for long.

She put down the cheap wine she had already finished, and counting on her fingers, she told them about Youyouko in her eyes.

"She is a proud and withdrawn child."

Hong Xia smiled. She already had a lot of experience in dealing with such people: "It seems my sister is not alone."

There is also a gap between tsunderes and tsunderes, just like the store manager's tsundereness does not affect her frenzy when she deals with others.

During the days of rejuvenation, Hiroi Kikuri sat at the table and told them the details. Ito Rin wrote down what she said and thought about how to respond.

By the time she finished speaking, the paper in front of her was already filled with words.

[1. I have a tsundere personality and want to have friends but don’t want to take the initiative]

【2. Loves music and feels it is her second life】

[3. He seems to have a paranoid obsession with being number one, so his grades in school are also good]

[4. I admire the unreliable Hiroi-senpai very much]

……

The original fourth article contained a lot of positive modifiers, but Ito Rin deleted them consciously for the sake of rigor.

And her impression of Yuyuko gave Ito Rin a sense of déjà vu.

The first one is like Pochi-chan, and the second one is related to Ryo who said that bass is a second life.

The rock world is indeed a circle, and everyone has similar parts.

Moreover, he also found some clues.

"Sister Hiroi, are you sure she is holding our record and not just saying it casually?" Ito Rin wrote and drew on the paper to confirm.

"Of course, looking for Pochi-chan is an excuse, but she really cares about you guys ending the band. She probably sees you as an equal competitor."

"You were lying when you said before that we don't have to worry about Miss Youyouko during the competition," said Ijichi Hongxia.

"Hey, it's just a white lie!"

"How come I can't see even a trace of kindness?" Ito Rin's voice rose a few degrees, and said, "I've thought of a plan. Wherever she is, we'll go see Yuyuko now."

The efficiency was so high that Hongxia looked at Ito Rin.

"Tell me about the plan so I can be prepared."

The stars gradually became lively. Ito Rin cleared her throat proudly and was about to tell her great discovery: "The core of the problem lies in one thing. Miss Youyouzi really regards us as opponents."

"What's the difference? Aren't we rivals anyway?" Ijichi Hongxia didn't understand what he meant.

"A true opponent is an enemy who doesn't want to lose. Since Youyouzi is such a competitive person, she must have a stronger desire. As for the fact that she kept listening to our records, she must have realized that they couldn't defeat the Ending Band!"

There was a hint of pride in Ito Rin's voice.

Just one record defeated a strong competitor.

Ijichi Hinikaka still looked confused. She looked at Hiroi Kikuri, then turned to Ito Rin.

"If she wanted to beat us, shouldn't she train harder? Why would she choose to isolate herself from her teammates?"

"People are different. When you realize there is no hope of winning, it's normal to give up on yourself. Sister Hiroi, what do you think of my speculation?"

"That does make sense." Hiroi Kikuri had to admit that his reasoning was very powerful.

At this point, Ito Rin had no motivation to act.

"Now that we know what's wrong with her, I'll leave it to you, Sister Guangjing, to take action. If we go over and try to persuade her, it will be mistaken for a mockery."

After handing the matter over to Hiroi Kikuri who was reluctant but unable to escape, Ito Rin and Nijixia left Fanxing early.

They had thought they would go out today, so they asked for leave early, and now they don't want to waste this time.

"The reason you don't want to go is probably because you hate creating an opponent for yourself?" said Ijichi Hongxia.

She knew Ito Rin and guessed why he suddenly lost motivation.

"I hope to have good opponents, but I hate having many rivals on the road to competition." Ito Rin acquiesced to this.

It has not been confirmed that Riot will be the last large-scale competition they can participate in. By next year, the seniors who will be entering their third year of high school will have much less time to play in the band.

He wanted to leave everyone with a perfect ending.

Ichichi Hongxia hid in the yellow scarf: "Do you also have times when you are not confident?"

"It's because you don't have confidence in yourself."

"Don't worry, I still have self-awareness."

The returning chill made her huddle a little deeper into her scarf. In the distance, an unknown rock band was singing their popular songs with all their might.

On February 10th, the weather was unusually sunny.

Sitting in the classroom, Ito Rin could feel the uncontrollable restlessness in the class.

Valentine's Day is only a few days away, why are you getting so active now?

And Shiraki and Nakamura, don't think that people will give you chocolates just because you dress up nicely.

Ito Rin saw that her two friends were about to be infected by the atmosphere in the class. In order to prevent them from falling into the whirlpool called love, she personally explained to them the lies of Valentine's Day.

"Do you think Valentine's Day is a holiday to help you fall in love?" Ito Rin waved her fingers in front of them.

"What else? Didn't you receive so many chocolates last Valentine's Day?" Bai Mu looked serious, wearing handsome clothes that he had gotten from somewhere.

"And quite a few of them are my favorite chocolates." Nakamura also looked jealous.

Many of the girls sitting around them turned their heads to check on Ito Rin's condition.

Ito Rin remembers very clearly the chocolates she gave last year, and several boxes of them were from female classmates in her class.

Of course, such serious things could not be given away directly, and most of them were placed in his cabinet. However, since he had no intention of falling in love at the time, he chose a private time to return them all.

He could still vividly remember the expressions on the girls' faces when he asked them out one by one.

Speaking of which, the issue of chocolate on Valentine's Day is really unfair to boys.

It was inconvenient for him to refuse the gifts from the other party, and he had to return the favor afterwards. In the end, he spent all the money he earned from working that month and only got more chocolates than he could finish.

"No, no, no, the reason I got the chocolate has nothing to do with Valentine's Day." Ito Rin, who was the Chocolate King last year, talked about Valentine's Day in a tone that made the boys jealous.

"If they really have feelings for each other, they would have confirmed their relationship before Valentine's Day. If they don't have feelings for each other, no matter how many gifts you give them, you won't win their heart."

Bai Mu didn't believe him. Last year, this man was telling them that dating was a waste of time.

"So, Ito, is Valentine's Day useless? I've also seen many couples confirming their relationship on this day!" Nakamura tried to comfort himself with the help of other people's cases.

"Yes, I have personally seen many couples who successfully confessed their love." The girl in the front row spoke up for Valentine's Day.

Ito Rin smiled and looked at Shiraki and Nakamura, "What about you two, do you have someone you like and want to confess your love to, or are you just waiting for a girl to give you chocolates?"

"Of course... chocolate."

After thinking about it, Baimu still couldn't find a suitable person to confess to, and his tone became listless.

"Will there really be girls who will give us chocolate?" Nakamura said doubtfully, "Why not do this? We go and confess to a girl. If she refuses, we can act pitiful and ask her to give us some chocolate."

"What if the other party agrees?" Ito Rin admired his imagination.

"No way, how could anyone agree to this? Absolutely not. I can get a piece of chocolate for free this way."

Just like that, he denied himself, and made the girls in the class who originally wanted to give him giri chocolates completely give up the idea.

"Oh, now I remember. Ito's girlfriend is Yamada from Class 2. She hasn't been to class for a few days. Is that okay?" The girls asked about topics of interest, wanting to know if he had anyone to accompany him on Valentine's Day.

"I know that. She just has some things to deal with." Ito Rin shook her head.

"Yamada-san will definitely give you your birthday chocolate. Will anyone else give it to you?"

Ito Rin, who was distracted, could not hear the rest of the words clearly, but he had deep doubts about Ryo-chan giving him chocolate.

If I remember correctly, last year on Valentine's Day, he didn't even get a piece of the most ordinary chocolate from her.

The atmosphere of the approaching Valentine's Day is not only pervasive within the campus. Walking down the street, you can see that the shops along the way have already put up signs, preparing to make a fortune on that day.

This restless season cannot affect some people among the stars.

After school, Ito Rin arrived at her part-time job early and was able to avoid the topic of Valentine's Day.

If we talk about people who resist this festival, Pochi-chan is ranked first, and the store manager will definitely be in the top three.

Before Valentine's Day, she was already sharpening her knife and looking at the couples in the store.

Ito Rin walked up to her, looked at Sister Xingge with a stern face, and tapped the table.

"Manager, give the order. I will kick all the couples out right now."

"Then please leave first."

Chapter 85: There Are Not Many Good Men Like Me

Ito Rin, who volunteered but was rejected, suddenly felt that she was not loved anymore.

Hongxia and others rushed over, and the lack of people in the past few days was finally discovered.

In the past, Yamada Ryo was responsible for writing music, so her taking leave during part-time work did not attract much attention. But now that most of the work has been done and she is the only one who has not come, she has become noticeable.

"Why didn't Senior Liang come again?" Xiao Xiduo said depressedly.

When Senior Yamada occasionally takes leave, she feels a little secretly happy because she can be alone with Ito Rin.

If they hadn't met the other members for such a long time, they would inevitably worry about what Shan-senpai was doing.

Ijichi Hongxia, who was studying the chocolate nearby, looked up.

"Not only did he not come to work, he also hasn't been to school for a few days."

As her boyfriend, Ito Rin was surrounded by gazes. He had expected this and could only smile bitterly and said, "Why are you all looking at me? I can't turn into a living Liangjiang."

Because the expression is serious, such words will not give people a frivolous feeling.

"You must know more than us, right?"

“I don’t deny that.”

"She asked you to hide it from us?" Hong Xia frowned deeply.

"It depends on one's own interpretation. What she meant was that she didn't want everyone to worry, but if she didn't say anything, it would only make people more worried."

"Then why are you still hesitating? Tell me now."

"What happened to Liang-senpai? We are all very worried about her."

Ito Rin smiled at them and said, "If I say she doesn't have any serious problems and just wants to be alone at home and quiet, will you feel relieved?"

Ijichi Hongxia glared at him first, then looked at the others and said in unison: "No."

Now he didn't need to find any other excuses.

"If she takes leave again, I will start deducting her salary." The store manager, unwilling to be left out, joined in their discussion.

"By the way, store manager, normally you would deduct our wages for even a little slacking off, why are you so tolerant now?"

"I mean the deduction of wages from previous jobs."

"…She only worked two days this month. Are you going to let her off? That's really too much."

"Ha, being thrifty is a basic skill for a store manager." The store manager's voice revealed his shrewdness.

"Don't be stingy with your employees' hard-earned money."

"If you oppose the store manager, be careful or I'll deduct your salary."

She put her hands on her hips and was very skilled in using the punishment that workers hated the most.

"Forget it, I won't bother with you guys." Ito Rin put her hands in her pockets and moved closer to the tense classmate Hong Xia: "Ryo-chan is fine, she just hasn't been in a good mood recently, so she took a few days off from school to rest."

Pochi-chan didn't say anything, her big eyes were full of envy.

"Senior, what is the reason for this kind of leave?" She asked in a low voice, wanting to know if there was a time limit for this method.
