Why play in a band if you don't form one for life?

However, along with the excitement came an irresistible heaviness.

How will she explain the matter of Miss Marina then?

No matter how many happy times they had spent together, Shizi's heart would still ache when she thought of that day. If Poppin'Party and the others knew the news, what would happen to them who were originally carefree?

And who was the sixth person? Would she know him?

As I was thinking, my eyes had been fixed on those six spots of light for a long time.

A knock on the door suddenly woke her up.

"(This voice... is Yuki's, right?)" Shizi guessed. She stood up, stuck her chopsticks into the noodles that were already a little lumpy, and went to open the door.

It was Yukina after all.

"Come in." Shizi took a step forward. Yukina walked in and closed the door behind him, saying without further ado: "How far is Poppin' Party from us?"

"Not far away." Shizi returned to the table and continued to sit down and eat noodles. "Take a look around, broadcast it, and I think we'll find it."

"Okay." Youxina nodded, but didn't sit down. "Do you need me to pass on Ms. Marina's message?"

Shizi paused for a moment while holding the chopsticks, then continued stirring the noodles: "Thank you, but this is our responsibility."

"Then..." Before Youxi could finish his words, there was another knock on the door.

"Xiao Shizi? Are you there? Are you awake?" It was Hong Xia's voice.

"Asleep?" Youxina tilted his head.

"Nothing." Shizi put down his chopsticks and went to open the door.

As soon as Hongxia showed up, she said hurriedly, "Yukina-senpai said we should gather at the exit after eating, just like the previous times when we welcomed newcomers...Ah, Yukina-senpai is here." She saw Yukina-senpai looking out the window idly at the back.

"OK, I'll go after I finish eating." Shizi said. She was about to go back, but turned around and said, "Sorry, I haven't finished eating this for a few times, and I'm a little hungry... Do you have any leftover fried eggs?"

Hongxia smiled and pointed at the dining cart that had not been pushed back yet.

ps: I really don’t know if the next chapter and the one after that will be released… If they are not released on time at 18:10, kick me qwq

Chapter 11: Watching Genius Lu Japanese Food

There wasn't much left on the dining car, and it looked like it was just enough for one person. Shizi looked at it and suddenly regretted his thoughtless request.

Even though there were almost unlimited raw materials, Hongxia always maintained the habit of cherishing food. She would cook only as much rice as needed and there would never be any leftovers.

The remaining ones were probably Hongxia's own breakfast. Although Xiduo ate less today, others probably ate a little more, so the amount left for Hongxia remained the same.

Shizi's face was a little stiff. There were still two or three fried eggs left. If she took them, she would feel very sorry for Hongxia. If she didn't take them, Hongxia would definitely see that she was being considerate of her, and she would be considerate of herself in return, which would still be unfair to Hongxia.

"Then..." She seemed not to notice and reached out to a plate. At this moment, some strange noises came from the other end of the corridor.

Shizi immediately withdrew her hand, her face falling: "It's broken again..." She turned around and said to Hongxia and Youxina, "You go first, I'll fix it," then ran away in a hurry.

Only after running around a corner did Shizi breathe a sigh of relief.

She had, of course, made all these noises herself.

"(The entire airship is under control, it's so convenient...)" Shizi found an empty room and stayed there for a while, "(There's still half a bowl of noodles left... I'm sorry...)"

Guessing that everyone else had finished eating and gathered, she also walked out and headed for the exit.

Everyone was indeed here, loosely gathered around the exit, and Ryo had already picked up Bess.

The hatch hadn't opened yet. Several people made way for Shizi.

Shizi held the hatch handle and warned the others, "Be careful." She twisted it hard, and the strong wind from outside immediately rushed in. Outside was the mountain in late autumn. The sun painted the hillside into layers of golden red, and no human figures were visible. The height of the airship had been lowered a lot, almost flush with the higher mountain top.

Shizi looked at the map in his head with one eye and looked outside with the other. He composed words in his mind and announced to the outside of the window: "Hello, this is Roselia-The End Band-RAS-Sei Sho Music Academy Joint Fleet. Please answer if you can hear me."

She repeated this sentence over and over again.

"Surprisingly quite serious." Liang helped her to amplify her voice while complaining to the people around him, "I thought she would do something else by the way."

"When did she leave this impression on you...and, after all..." Hongxia scratched her face with her fingers.

Shizi's expression now looked a little complicated. She was looking forward to meeting him in the next second, but also hoping not to meet him.

The airship gradually drifted towards the depths of the mountains.

“…If you hear me, please answer.” The girl’s voice echoed in the mountains, forming layers of echoes.

Only the monster responded.

"It should be nearby..." Shizi's whisper was also amplified in the mountains. "Don't say this... Hello, this is..."

Listening to Shiko's repeated words, Sayo began to get anxious for no apparent reason.

She didn't understand where this emotion came from. As for waiting, she had waited for many things before, but she had never been so impatient.

It was as if something very important was nearby, but she didn't notice it and was about to miss it... She finally couldn't help it and took a step forward, not caring about being cautious and sticking half of her head out of the door.

"Hear...Saya?" Shizi tilted his head, not understanding why the other party was like that.

Sayo ignored it. Her sight passed through the gorgeous layers of autumn colors, the almost transparent sky, the discordant animal shadows that sounded like noise, and finally locked onto a tiny green dot the size of a bean.

The same blue color as her hair.

Her pupils trembled, and before she could make a sound, the green color instantly appeared in front of her, magnified into a familiar and extremely missed figure: "Sister——!"

Before anyone could react, Hikawa Hina suddenly appeared in the air in front of Sayo, opened her arms and rushed towards her, and the next second...

Lisa covered Yukina's eyes.

Hongxia tried to cover Liang's eyes, but her hands were ripped open.

Rinko covered Ako's eyes.

MASKING covered LOCK's eyes.

PAREO covered CHU?'s eyes and also covered his own with his pink and blue braids.

LAYER... She didn't have anyone's eyes to cover, so she turned around and found that Hua Lian had covered her own eyes, but she still secretly opened a crack.

Shizi reached back and was about to cover Ichiri's eyes, but her hand collided with Kita's. She turned her head and said, "Ichiri, you can't look... Kita, you too! You're young, you can't look!"

"What about you?!" Kita closed his eyes with a blushing face and tried to cover Shizi's eyes.

"I am the only adult here! The age of the soul!" Shizi said while looking at Saya and Hina with a mixed expression of shock, confusion and no regrets in his life.

"Eh...what on earth happened?" Yili didn't see anything and was confused.

Shizi pondered for a long time and uttered two words:

"Soundcheck."

"Try..." Ichiri didn't understand what he said at all. She still tried to break free from the grip of Shiko and Kita.

On the other side, Lisa could no longer hold on.

"Lisa, this is..." LAYER looked at Lisa at a loss.

"Everyone, everyone, everyone! Go away! Go away!" Lisa tried to use her body to block the two people who were testing each other's guitar training results, and waved her hand to drive away the crowd. With this signal, everyone left as if fleeing. "You too... please go to the room, hey..." Lisa glanced behind her and hurried away.

The hatch was still open, and the cold wind allowed Sayo to barely maintain her consciousness.

"Hina..." She forced herself to break free from the other's grip, however, her eyes were already filled with a desire to play the guitar.

Hinata's face came closer again: "Sister... I've been practicing guitar... Let's go to the room and play to our heart's content."

Saya hesitated for a long time, but in the end her love for music overwhelmed everything. She nodded with difficulty.

After being apart for such a long time, both Hina and Saya have made leaps forward in their guitar skills. Naturally, it is impossible to demonstrate all the progress they have made in a short time.

In Sayo's room, the two tuned up and officially began to practice. Sometimes they used a pick, sometimes they played with their fingers. Although they were a little awkward at the beginning, the tacit understanding between the sisters soon made up for it. The two of them sometimes strummed the strings, sometimes pushed the strings, and sometimes rubbed the strings. Hina tried various chords in the low position, but she was not satisfied and went to the high position. Sayo cheered up and tried to use the prelude of "Determination Symphony" to make the other party surrender, but how could the little genius next door be defeated so easily? With a casual strum, the muffled sound turned into an overtone. In order to let her sister understand the gap between the two, she was inspired and changed to pressing the strings with her right hand and strumming with her left hand, having a lot of fun.

The match between the two seems to be a foregone conclusion. However, Sayo has already seen the chance to win! Hinata has been using the sky as a blanket and the ground as a bed, and has neglected the maintenance of her musical instruments. This is the only flaw!

Relying on their familiarity with each other, Sayo brought some lubricant and personally taught her sister the importance of maintaining her guitar!

Outside the door, the audience had gathered without my noticing.

ps: This chapter is considered a success if you can pass it

ps: Shao Ge's mobile version has been sent... Although I have only watched the TV+ movie version and have never played the mobile game, I still express my condolences qwq

Chapter 12: Strumming, just strumming (Happy birthday to Claudine Nishijo~)

"What exactly happened in there?" Even if Yili was slow-witted, he could tell something was wrong.

"Sweeping the strings." Shizi insisted.

“Strumming… Yeah, that’s good.” Youkina nodded with satisfaction, “As expected, this should have been done a long time ago.”

"Indeed." Lisa also looked relieved.

Hong Xia looked at them in horror: "Could it be that you..."

Ako had already fallen into confusion. She held Rinko's hand and said, "Hey, Rinko... So there is such a thing?"

Rinko, for various reasons, found it difficult to answer this question. She turned her head away: "Um...Pareo, what are you doing..."

PAREO pulled the pink and blue ponytails over, crossed them to cover her eyes, and then pulled them over to block her ears: "Don't look, don't listen... Don't look, don't listen... Don't look, don't listen..."

Hua Lian kept shaking her: "Little Pareo, little Pareo, wake up..."

"Don't look, don't listen..."

"Aren't you going to check?" Shizi's voice suddenly sounded behind the two of them.

"Huh?" Hua Lian's DNA suddenly moved.

PAREO screamed, "I won't listen, I won't listen! Ayana must be telling the truth, it must be true!"

Shizi held PAREO's shoulders like a devil and whispered in her ear: "Although I can do it... I love you the most, I love you the most, I love you the most, I love you the most, I love you the most..."

She uses the Japanese voice.

"No--!"

Shi Zi recited it with greater joy.

The room was not soundproofed, and Ricai could hear the noise outside. She raised her head, somewhat dissatisfied.

"There are a lot of people here~" There was a golden light flashing in Rinna's eyes, and she seemed to be planning something.

Sayo raised her head with difficulty: "Hina...what are you going to do?"

"Nothing." Hinata pressed a headless slide, "Just a reminder, they still have things to do."

She leaned over again and purred.

Outside, Shizi was halfway through reciting when Yamabuki Saya's voice suddenly rang out from behind him: "Um... I don't think it's a good idea for us all to gather here, right?"

Lisa quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, let's go back to our room and give them some private space..."

"Eh..." Shizi pouted in dissatisfaction, "Puff-Puff-"

"It's useless to object." Hongxia patted Shizi's head, "Go back."

"PAREO, you want to stay here too, right?" Shizi turned his head, "right?"

"Don't look... don't listen... don't look... don't listen..."

"Okay, don't bother others." Kita grabbed Shiko by the collar and dragged her to their room. Ichiri followed. The three of them entered Kita's room.

Kita's room is just like its owner, full of girlishness and fashion. Kita's care for the atmosphere of the room can be seen from various small details. The only discordant thing is a small box that peeks out from under the bed.

Kita nonchalantly kicked the box deeper into the cave.

"Just ask," Shizi raised his hand, "Why did you drag me here? My butt hurts."

"Then why don't you just stand up..." Kita let go of Shiko, causing the latter to fall to the ground with a slight "ouch".

Shizi rubbed his head and got up, only to see Kita mumbling to himself dully: "But...yes, why did I bring you here?"

Shizi blinked: "Kitano, have you developed the attribute of being an idiot without my knowledge? And Ichiri, you are..."

Yili stood at the door, feeling uneasy: "I followed you here without you noticing... Xiao Xiduo, your face is so red..."

Shiko heard this and turned to Kita. Just as Ichiri said, Kita's face was as red as her hair, and it seemed that you could still see the faint steam on her head.

"What's wrong?" Shizi stood up and waved his hand in front of Kita's eyes, "Can you see it? What is this?"

Kita ignored him and murmured, "Now that I think about it, they, the famous idol Hikawa Hina, were actually with her twin sister..."
