Although, just tell me if it’s rock and roll enough!

...even though dad is not dead yet.

It had been several days since the operation, but my father still looked half-dead, lying on the bed with his eyes closed, as if he was sleeping soundly after being drunk.

Living alone is not lonely. After all, when my father is awake, we don’t communicate much. We are clearly in the same room, but we feel like strangers.

After clocking out, the girl left with her small bag.

Pushing open the door and looking at the empty room, the girl had an expressionless face.

He casually put the discounted lunch box he had bought near the expiration date into the microwave, walked into his room, and started playing the electronic keyboard once again.

The next day, Xiangzi got up early and went to school. After finishing a day's classes, the girl rushed to her workplace.

After living in silence for two days, one afternoon, the cell phone unexpectedly sent a text message. Xiangzi, who had just returned home from school, became alert and checked the content of the message.

The girl sighed, then raised her head firmly and headed towards her destination.

……

"You are so hypocritical. It is your freedom to play if you want to."

The girl lowered her head and closed her eyes, her tone as cold as if she was keeping people at a distance. She actually thought of using her childhood sweetheart. Xiangzi once thought that her former teammate's behavior was very ugly.

Inside the park, the blue-haired girl was about to leave, and Nagasaki Suyo hurriedly said, "But Kasuga Kage is the most important person in crychic..."

"Are you still clinging to the past? That's really ugly..."

In the past, my father was still alive. A little further back, my father had not yet been abandoned by the family. That was the past.

But now, my father is in a coma and his presence in the family is a thing of the past.

With cold eyes, the girl carried her bag without even looking back. Today, she had more important things to do.

Xiangzi really wanted to leave without looking back. If it weren't for their childhood sweetheart, she didn't want to meet this former band member who was entangled with her. Thinking of this, the girl left this place of trouble.

"Wait a minute!" Xiangzi's departure hurt the girl's nerves. After a moment of stagnation, Nagasaki Suyo immediately turned around and shouted, "Don't go!"

"That's not the case. I really value you all and I like you all very much!"

The anxious voice of pleas for retention did not stop the girl, "No!"

Su Shi didn't care about the bag on her shoulder slipping off, nor did she care about the other girl present. She quickly ran towards Xiangzi and grabbed her arm tightly...

"Please, if it weren't for Xiangzi and the others, I would..."

The blue-haired girl threw her hands away, "Let me go."

In front of that man, she had thought about doing this kind of thing. She humbly begged her father, begging him not to degenerate, but in the end she did not do it - because after every disappointment, everything told Xiangzi that humility was useless.

Only a strong and heartless puppet will not be happy, but will definitely not be sad.

The girl suddenly knelt down and pleaded in a low voice: "What do you want me to do to make you come back... As long as I can do it, I am willing to do anything!"

"..."

There was silence.

"How much awareness do you have to say such a thing?"

The tone was bone-chillingly cold. He had never heard Xiangzi speak like this before. Su Shi looked up blankly and met the girl's icy eyes.

"You are just a student. Can you bear the responsibility of other people's lives?"

Image: "(It's coming)", Location: "Images/1720473037-100408515-111870276.jpg"

"'I'm willing to do anything' is such a heavy word. Don't say something you can't do."

The weak girl from before is dead. She died at the moment when she signed the family consent form for her father, died at the moment when she took the electronic piano from the yellow-haired boy’s hands, and died on the afternoon when everything changed.

It's over... crychic is over...

"But, I really..."

Su Shi was still begging for something, but Xiangzi shook his hand away, and his fantasy was shattered in an instant.

"You are this person..."

"My mind is full of thoughts about myself..."

Image: "(Comfortable)", Location: "Images/1720473133-100408515-111870276.jpg"

"Eh!"

There was no response, Su Shi stood there in a daze, and Toyokawa Shoko walked away slowly without any intention of looking back.

Say goodbye to the girl who took advantage of your childhood sweetheart and bombarded you with text messages on LINE...

The past is past, and the future...

After hailing a taxi, the girl whispered to the driver: "Livehouse Ring, thank you."

……

"That uncle hasn't come for a few days..."

The waitress was standing behind the service counter, with her work badge hanging on her chest, which read - Shiina Tatsuki.

Relying on his status as a waiter, he repeatedly asked for guidance from the other party when practicing the drum set, and the other party gladly accepted it.

With sloppy clothes that smell of alcohol and a carefree personality, he is clearly the type of person who would be easily disliked if he walked on the street. However, for a drummer, this kind of personality is very suitable for this position.

Those who control the rhythm of music are always bold and careful.

The band that was doing the recording and performance had already entered the building. Apart from her, the entire hall was empty. After a while, when the band that came in to work finished their work, Shiina Riki also went off work.

The girl thought so and stretched subconsciously.

"Ding……"

The door opened, and there were guests coming at this time. Li Xi quickly stood up straight, as if he had not been slacking off just now.

"Hello, may I ask..."

When Li Xi's eyes met the guest's, they instantly became sharp.

"Xiangzi? What are you doing here?!"

The culprit who destroyed ceychic and caused rifts among the band members, why is he back now?!

Hurting the band members once wasn't enough, are you going to hurt them again?!

"If you want to say something to me, please get out of here immediately. I don't welcome a guy who breaks up a band midway."

Shiina Riki hugged his waist and tried his best to mock the blue-haired girl in front of him. She was a bad woman, so don't be fooled by her.

"No, I'm not here to cause you any trouble."

Xiangzi took out a photo from his wallet and placed it in front of Lixi, saying in a cold tone, "Do you know the man in the photo?"

"The man in the photo..."

Li Xi took a quick look at the photo and saw that it was the uncle who had been coming here for the past few days. He was about to say that he knew him, but then he remembered that he didn't know the relationship between the two, so he kept silent.

The two sides stared at each other, as if there was an electric spark between them. After a long stalemate, neither of them gave in.

"I keep it confidential to any of my clients, and I'm not going to talk to someone who broke up a band."

"..."

Xiangzi's eyes were still cold, as if she would just stand there until she knew the answer.

A few minutes later……

"I'm really impressed by you. Okay, I know this uncle." Li Xi waved his hand. "About two weeks ago, he suddenly appeared here and performed a song by a second-hand band. Then he taught students here temporarily to make money."

"What else?" The girl's tone was flat, as if she was speaking like an emotionless robot.

"And... no, there's nothing else. He hasn't been here for a long time."

"No, there's something you're hiding from me that you haven't told me yet."

The girl's decisive tone made Li Xi very unhappy. She didn't have a good attitude when she spoke: "Hey, hey, this is all I can say. Now it's your turn!"

Is this the attitude of asking for help? Can you speak a little better? I haven't even settled accounts with you about the band!

Xiangzi was obviously frightened by Lixi's momentum. He took a step back, then immediately walked forward and looked at Lixi.

"He's my father!"

Volume 1 Wow! : Chapter 17: Xian'er, Toyokawa Shoko, and the Musician System

Although Shoko's withdrawal from the team made Shiina Tatsuki very unhappy, it has to be admitted that no matter where she is, Shoko Toyokawa always embodies the elegance of an aristocratic lady, which is a temperament that only those born in a good family can have.

But... when he thought of that drunk and smelly uncle... whom Xiangzi said was his father... Shiina Riki really wanted to overlap the two people's appearance, but he never succeeded.

"Is this true that the uncle is Xiangzi's father..."

Li Xi couldn't accept the thought that such an uncle would raise such a daughter. She thought that the uncle was the kind of person who had seen through the world and traveled around the world relying on his music knowledge. He didn't have a family, let alone a daughter.

But, but!

Not only does the other party have a daughter, but her daughter is one of the girls she is most familiar with - Xiangzi!

Reality, isn't it amazing?

Lixi was stunned. The news was so shocking that her brain crashed for a moment and refused to process any information.

Xiangzi narrowed his eyes and looked at the stunned girl in front of him. She obviously knew more information, but she just hadn't revealed it yet.

Li Xi muttered to himself, his mind still confused, but he subconsciously said: "Wait a minute... So, how did you find this place?"

"A few thugs came to my father and wanted to recognize him as their teacher... It was through their stories that I learned that he had been here before."

Gangster students? Li Xi thought of the gangster band that was harassing the uncle at the door. They should be the gangster students that Xiangzi mentioned.

Li Xi immediately asked: "So, you came here for..."

"Sorry for disturbing you."

After understanding what happened to her father here, Xiangzi saw no point in confronting the former drummer. Instead, she interrupted him and bowed slightly to express her apology.

Shouldn't I hate my father? Why should I walk the same path he once walked?

Sadness and self-mockery flooded into the girl's heart. The girl's sorrow was as deep as the sea. Through her amber eyes, the sorrow flowed like a river.

"and many more!"

Li Xi, who was no longer in a daze, stopped the girl and shouted sternly, "Something is wrong. It's very wrong. Until now, you haven't told me why you came here!"

"Besides, where's your father? He hasn't been here for a few days. And what about that ragtag band? They haven't been here for a long time either!"

I can't just be passing by here, right? I have my photos ready, and I have my reasons for coming here ready. But it's unnecessary to just come in and ask, "Has my father been here?"

It’s not a lost kitten or puppy, so why are you just asking if they have been here?

A bad thought came to my mind, "Did something happen to the uncle?"

"I'm sorry, but I can't answer that question."

Xiangzi's purpose of coming here was simple - when she heard the yellow-haired student say that her father had been here, she was afraid that her father had committed a crime here.

She came to take a look specially, and if there was any debt dispute, she could handle it on the spot.

But...looking at Lixi's reaction, it seems that father is quite popular here.

This former band member has always been straightforward and speaks her mind, and when she stopped making negative comments about her father, Xiangzi already knew that she had no place here.

Resolutely refusing to ask further questions, the girl left the hall in confusion. Her head was dizzy and she walked unsteadily, as if her feet were stepping on cotton.

At this moment, a hand grabbed the girl's arm. Xiangzi turned around in surprise, staring at the owner of the hand with empty eyes.

"I say! Toyokawa Shoko, that's enough!" Li Xi shouted, "I don't care what happened to the uncle, you have to continue to be strong. Where is the arrogant young lady?"

"I will still investigate the matter of quitting the team, but during this time, take good care of that uncle. He works very hard to make money!"

Recalling that uncle, whether he was the one with his head buried in the guitar case after the performance, or the one who taught students everywhere and shouted "500 yen, you will learn it until you learn it", and his miserly look especially when paying for the seat fee, Lixi was a little moved.

He is clearly just a wandering musician, why would he need so much money?

It turned out to be for Xiangzi...

"Thank you."

The girl Xiangzi raised her head with a trembling voice, and said with determination in her eyes, "I will."

This time Xiangzi was really ready to leave.
