One hundred ways to resist the Bandoli women

"I don't have any plans to join a band for now, but I do plan to be a supporting musician. I can play any position anyway, so I plan to earn some pocket money."

"I see... That's really amazing."

Although she didn't get any news about Deng and Xiangzi, Nagasaki Suyo was still quite satisfied that Katsuto did not officially join another band.

Then, it’s like it’s given away for free when you top up your phone bill.

"Does any of you know where Lixi is?"

“Greek milk.”

"Wagaranai."

"That's it."

Finally, they ended the conversation in this way.

Nagasaki Suyo had a club activity with the wind band, so she said goodbye and left quickly, leaving only Wakaba Mutsu and Katsuto in the garden.

Wakaba Mutsuki remained silent as usual, and Shengren took the initiative to speak.

"You can't do this, Mu."

Shengren knew Mu's position very well.

She couldn't possibly betray her childhood playmate, but she didn't want to disappoint Nagasaki Suyo.

Perhaps it was also an atonement for what he had said before: "I never felt happy playing in a band."

Therefore, she was caught between two people, and was neither here nor there.

"..."

"I think you should make it clear - tell Soyo clearly and don't let her have any overly rosy illusions."

As the saying goes, the higher you fly, the harder you fall.

The greater the expectations at the beginning, the greater the disappointment in the end.

"Although Soyo's mental state worries me a little... But to be honest, I'm also very curious about Xiangzi's situation."

As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat.

But even so, human curiosity has never stopped.

He was a person who was always polite, gentle, and always smiling. You two were originally good friends.

But suddenly one day, she changed, became distant, and said in a painful manner, "I want to quit the band."

Would you just say "Oh" and let her go?

Coincidentally, Shengren really thought so ()

After all.

Although the band was formed by Toyokawa Shoko, without her hard work, Crychic would not have been born.

But what really attracted everyone in the band—

The truly irreplaceable, irreplaceable, truly absolute core—

Just lights.

As for Li Xi, Soyo, Mu, and even he and Xiangzi, they are just parts of the lamp.

As long as Deng keeps his mentality stable, Crychic will continue to exist even if Xiangzi quits.

...So Xiangzi’s words are unforgivable.

Ahem, I got a little off topic.

Even if we accept this reality, won't we still be curious?

Don't you really want to know what happened to Toyokawa Shoko?

"..."

"But I don't plan to let Mu be the messenger to contact Xiangzi."

Shengren's words made Ruoye Mu's eyes, which were originally fixed on the cucumber, shift sideways.

"I will find Xiangzi myself - and then investigate her current situation myself."

"..."

Ruoye Mu remained silent.

"Why, don't you believe me, Mu?"

Shengren smiled brightly.

"I, Ushiromiya Katsuto, have never failed in anything I want to do."

"Then why did you come here?"

"..."

Wakaba Mu's questioning made Shengren fall silent for a moment.

Mu misunderstood.

She probably thought that she was sent to this aristocratic girls' school because she failed in her resistance.

That's not the case.

As mentioned before, Katsuto understood the significance of coming here and accepted it.

Although he could refute it, but...

A red-haired figure flashed in his eyes.

All I can say is that this was done quite badly.

Totally don't know how to handle it.

Hey.

Chapter 8: Udai Palace

"Thank you for your patronage—"

Shopping street, Yamabuki bakery.

After seeing off the last customer, Shengren hung a "Closed" sign on the door and locked the shop.

"Shanan, clear the table; Chun, sweep the floor, I'll make dinner."

"Got it, Katsuto-nii-nii!"

While directing the younger brothers and sisters of the Yamabuki family to close the shop, Katsuto himself went upstairs to the kitchen.

Saya Yamabuki's mother, Chihiro Yamabuki, suffers from severe anemia and was often hospitalized for treatment in the past two years.

As of this year, Chihiro Yamabuki's condition has improved, but she still has to go for a checkup every two weeks.

When Yamabuki's father, Yamabuki Wataru, accompanied Yamabuki Chihiro for a follow-up examination, and Yamabuki Saya happened to have a part-time job, the bakery had to be left to Katsuto.

Fortunately, Yamabuki Saya's younger siblings, Yamabuki Jun and Yamabuki Sanan, have grown up a little and can do some work.

Otherwise, unless Shengren grows four hands and two mouths, or has three heads and six arms, or can pluck some hair and blow it to create a clone, he can handle the whole store by himself.

While humming a song, Shengren took out the ingredients that had been transferred from the freezer to the refrigerator and processed them - slicing and shredding them, while making a fire -

The field expands, subdues demons and controls the chef!

After a while, the sumptuous dishes were prepared one by one.

"Wow, it smells so good."

"Hmm, it smells really good."

Yamabuki Wataru, Yamabuki Chihiro, and Yamabuki Saya came back one after another, and when they saw the fragrant dishes on the table, they smiled with satisfaction.

"I'm gonna start now!"

The six of them put their hands together and started today's dinner.

“It’s great to have Shengren.”

Yamabuki Qianhong said with a smile.

"He is obedient and capable... Where did we find such a treasure?"

"Auntie, you are too kind..."

Shengren scratched his head sheepishly.

"Hey, don't be too modest. Excessive modesty is pride."

Yamabuki Watashi also said.

"It would be nice if Shengren was really our child..."

"Yes."

"That way, Shanan and Jun will be very happy too."

When Yamabuki Saya heard her parents' opinions, she also joined in.

Shengren listened and his eyes moved slightly.

"Uncle, aunt, what are you talking about? Sister Sha Ling is not my sister? Chun and Shanan are not my brothers and sisters?"

He slapped his chest.

"I have been in the Yamabuki family for three years. I have long been a pure Yamabuki family member."

Today, the Yamabuki family's dinner table is still full of laughter.

"Oh, yes, Katsuto."

Yamabuki Saya suddenly remembered something.

"When Kasumi and I were working part-time, we saw a friend of yours on the shift schedule."

"my friend?"

Shengren couldn't help but wonder.

"Yeah, yes, her name seems to be - Shiina... Rikii? I remember she was not in the same band as you?"

"Yeah. By the way, although it's written as Stand Hope, her name is pronounced Taki. She might get angry if you call her Rikii."

"Is that so... Are you going to meet her tomorrow? She has a shift tomorrow."

"No, thanks." Shengren shook his head gently.

"bad relationship?"

Yamabuki Saya looked at Katsuto's face and guessed.

"No... there is just no need to meet."

Yes.

There is no need for Katsuto and Shiina Tatsuki to meet for the time being.

Even if we meet, there is nothing to talk about.

"Besides, I'm also going to find something to do..."

"Really? Katsuto is also planning to work part-time?"

"Well, I'm going to be a support musician."

Shengren said as he continued to eat his meal.

"I'm a jack of all trades. I can play guitar, bass, drums and keyboards. It would be a shame if I didn't become a support musician... Then maybe I'll find something else to do."

"Do you want to keep yourself so busy?"

Yamabuki Saya frowned slightly.

"Did you encounter any troubles?"
