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

"Huh?" Kasumi blinked, "Does the bakery sell this?"

"No." Sa Ling smiled, "Kasumi, aren't you tired of bread yet?"

Kasumi nodded like a little animal, "After all, it's the bread from Yamabuki Bakery!"

"Thank you for your patronage." Saaya said, "So what would Kasumi like to eat? And Shiko?"

"Well... the sandwich is good, and we can't give up the butter bread. The baguette..." Kasumi held her head and it seemed that it would take a while before she could give an answer.

Shizi looked at her with a smile and said, "Excuse me... do you have such a thing as French fries and bread?"

She clearly saw the corners of Sa Ling's mouth twitch: "I've only heard of fried noodle bread... I'll try it."

"How about using French fries as the raw material?" Shizi suggested.

Saya's ability is to use various items as raw materials and turn them into edible bread. Different raw materials can make different breads, and if you sing to the bread while making it, the final product will change according to the song, such as "Yes! Bang Dream! Bread". Before coming here, Poppin'Party used such bread to fill their stomachs.

It is precisely because of this that Sha Ling needs Shizi's help.

"Shizi, can you make French fries?" Sha Ling asked.

"Simple things like this... should be fine, right?" Shizi was unsure. "If that doesn't work, try using potatoes. By the way, Sa-ling, you shouldn't need a kitchen to use your abilities, right?"

"Bread tastes better when it's heated up. Is there a big enough oven over there?"

As they were talking, several people had already arrived. Kasumi jumped in and said, "Wow! It's so big!"

"After all, we have to provide food for so many people." Shizi lifted the curtain and walked in, "Sha Ling, let me show you how to use these things..."

After Shizi finished teaching, Shaling asked for chocolate, potatoes, beef jerky and other ingredients and started preparing.

She took the chocolate first.

Kasumi came over and said, "I'll sing this song!"

She turned back again, "Xiao Shizi, come too!"

Shizi was already prepared to watch from the side: "I want to come too?"

"It will be more fun if we sing together." Kasumi took Shiko's hand without further ado, "By the way, do you have a guitar?"

Shizi smiled helplessly: "Although there is no Random Star, there are several others. Do you want to get them?"

Kasumi seemed to be a little depressed: "Then we'll talk about it later. Little Shizi, pay attention and sing along with me: "My Heart is a Chocolate Snail"!"

“Oh, I can sing this.”

"Eh?!" Kasumi's eyes immediately sparkled, as if she could see stars in them, "Can Shiko-chan do it too?"

"In a sense, I became a fan of Popipa since SPACE," said Shizi.

"Thank you for your support." Sha Ling reminded the two, "Well, can we start? They are still hungry."

However, what she saw was Shiko being held in Kasumi's arms, her face flushed.

"Uh...uh...uh!"

"Thank you~ ummm ummm~" Kasumi rubbed her head against Shiko's face.

"...Okay, shall we start?"

The whole process of Saya baking bread is more like karaoke than cooking in Shiko's opinion. Saya puts her hands on the raw materials, and Kasumi and Shiko keep singing. In the singing, the raw materials slowly swell into the shape of bread. Occasionally, Saya also sings a few songs herself.

Saya sang mostly Poppin'Party songs. Kasumi not only sang Poppin'Party songs, but also other bands' songs, and some of them even Shiko had never heard of.

Shizi's songs are more mixed. In addition to the songs of the ending band, she also sings songs of other bands of Bang Bang, songs of other Erou projects, and other anisong that are not too shameful.

Not long after, Sha Ling pushed the full food cart and the three of them were on their way back. The lights in the corridor were not turned on, but the bright starlight outside the window was enough to illuminate the way.

"Ah~ I feel better after singing~" Kasumi's throat didn't seem to feel tired at all.

Shiko's mood also improved a lot. She was filled with happiness when she heard Kasumi singing for the first time in a long time.

But looking at Kasumi's smiling face, there was still a shadow in her heart.

Because of Hina's interference, the part where they introduced themselves to each other was skipped. Also skipped was something that the band had to tell them personally - the news of Ms. Marina's death.

Hinata should know about this, but do Kasumi and the others know about it?

It seemed as if one could see stars in Kasumi's eyes.

However, the starlight quickly dimmed. She suddenly stopped laughing, lowered her voice, and leaned close to Shizi's ear: "We already know what you want to say."

"Eh? Got it?" Shizi's face changed, "You mean..."

"Yes, it's about the fact that Ms. Marina has passed away." Kasumi's expression was also difficult to maintain. When she mentioned this matter in person, her eyes seemed to be a little moist, but she quickly held it back.

She whispered to Shizi and slowly explained: "When I was a child, I heard the beating of the stars."

“Looking back, it was still an incredible day. The whole night sky was in rhythm, and the melody of the stars was transmitted to my heart, and it still echoes to this day.”

"It was because of the encouragement from the stars that I got to know Arisaki, Saaya, Satomi, and Megumin."

"Then, after coming to this world, I heard the beating of the stars again." Kasumi reached forward and grasped a ray of starlight. "This time, they had a clearer meaning. They kept telling me something about the future."

"Whether it's Ms. Marina's matter or our meeting, I already knew about it."

Kasumi's face no longer had the liveliness from before, instead she looked a little melancholy.

"Besides, Hinata-san also told us that she had seen Ms. Marina's body in real life."

When Shizi heard the news, he felt relieved: "Is that so? Well, it can be considered as returning to one's roots."

She stopped and said, "Sha Ling, you go first, we have something else to do."

"OK~" Sha Ling pushed the food cart away.

Then, Shizi turned around and said, "Kasumi, I need to give you something."

Chapter 15 Mocha's favorite episode

Kasumi tilted her head, "What?"

Shiko said nothing, leading the way, turning a corner and returning to the dormitory area. Kasumi followed half a step behind. Shiko took the handle of her own door, pulled it open, and walked in: "Come on."

"Oh..." Kasumi's head entered the door before her feet, "Excuse me... Wow, so cute."

She saw paper figures hanging all over Shizi's room.

Shizi didn't know why, but suddenly felt uncomfortable all over, so she quickly tried to divert the other person's attention: "Ahem...um, Ms. Marina left something for Popipa."

When Xiangcheng heard this, she immediately became serious. Shizi took out a wooden box from a hidden corner of the cabinet and gently dusted it. She cleaned the box regularly, but it was inevitable that it would be covered in dust.

She hesitated for a moment, but then faced Kasumi's eyes with determination and held the box in front of her: "When there are only five of you, open it one by one."

Kasumi opened her mouth slightly, stared at the box in Shizi's hand, and took it solemnly.

"Can't Hina-san watch it either?" she asked.

Shizi sighed helplessly, "When Ms. Marina left this letter, she didn't know that Hinata would come. If she knew, she would definitely stay."

Kasumi nodded, and the two of them walked back to the bar in silence.

When they were almost there, Kasumi suddenly said, "It feels so bad that I don't even want to talk."

Shizi turned around and saw that even though a long time had passed, she still couldn't let go of the sadness.

"Having this feeling means that the relationship between us and Miss Marina is sincere." Shizi comforted.

Kasumi glanced at her and said, "Yeah. Thank you."

Shizi suddenly felt that in Kasumi's eyes, in addition to sadness for Miss Marina, there was also an indescribable emotion.

I could already hear the noise coming from the bar. Looking around, everyone was having a great time eating.

"Saiya's bread is really delicious." Kasumi suddenly changed the subject, her eyes full of energy again, "You should try a little of each!"

When the two came back, Hongxia saw that they both had natural smiles on their faces.

"Little Shizi - come on, if you don't come, Liang will eat all your bread!" Hongxia waved to Shizi. While she was talking, Liang was still eating with big mouthfuls.

Shizi ran over quickly: "Here I come!"

Kasumi looked at her back.

The encouragement of the stars will tell her news of the future.

Therefore, I already knew that I would meet Shiko at this moment. At the same time, I also knew that "Hina-san would do something bad."

Moreover, she could hear that Shizi was the only destined heroine who could possibly resolve this incident.

"Come on, little Shizi."

Kasumi's right eye had turned emerald green without her noticing.

"Wow, my French fries and bread!" Shizi held down Liang's evil hand to prevent her from further destroying the fruits of her labor.

Liang gave up dejectedly: "It's delicious."

Shizi took one contentedly and took a big bite: "Hmm...delicious."

As expected of a product from Yamabuki Bakery, the bread is soft, the fries are tender, and the aroma of wheat and potatoes is irresistible.

Liang watched her eat: "Like it?"

"Hmm..." Shizi swallowed the food in her mouth. "Originally, I only liked her normally, but after knowing that the Glacier Twins also liked her, I became a big fan. The same goes for Onigiri."

“Carbs.”

Shizi looked down and saw that Liang's right eye had turned green without her noticing, and he was looking at her normally. She looked around and saw that everyone's right eyes had turned green without her noticing.

She sat down with an unchanged expression, and chewed the same thing again, "What a pity! Japanese food is not here, so we can't eat such good French fries and bread anymore."

After hearing this, Sha Ling also remembered: "Yes, why don't I give those to her. I wonder if she can still eat more..."

"No need!" Hina suddenly appeared behind Shizi and took a few breads from the plate, "I'm already here!"

"Hey..." Shizi raised his head, "I wanted to ask before, what is the principle behind this?"

Hinata thought for a moment and said, "Just a beep? Anyway, I can come anywhere as long as there are souls."

“Eh——” Shizi gave up thinking.

"Beep?" Hong Xia tilted her head.

"Ijichi-san, you don't have to think about the onomatopeia for Hinata-san." Arisaki reminded, "I'm used to it..."

"So, French fries are more important than my sister?" Shizi whispered, "Little Shizi~ cry!"

Hinai responded in a low voice: "Sister wants to eat too." She took enough French fries and bread, and added some freshly fried French fries: "Well, I have something else to do, bye~" She pretended to leave.

"Saya wants to eat too...how to eat?" Shizi, who was used to seeing the second creation against the sky in his previous life, responded instinctively.

Hina stopped walking. She looked at Shiko, her eyes crackling and lighting up.

"Yes! This is how it can be done!" She suddenly nodded gratefully to Shizi and disappeared with an armful of food.

Shi Zi was stunned.

Well, it's really scary for you to think about this with this expression... And why did you understand it so quickly... Could it be that you have also fantasized about it subconsciously...

She herself couldn't help but imagine Saya's current state. As she thought about it, her face turned red, which was noticed by Ichiri beside her.

"Shizi?"

"It's okay...it's okay! Haha, speaking of this, it's not good to only eat French fries and bread! Well, do you have any other bread to recommend?" Shizi looked towards Popipa.

“Everything is delicious!” Kasumi was the first to respond.

"Me too." Sha Ling followed.

"That...that...chocolate snails..." Rimi said softly, pointing to the pile of snails in front of her.

Duohui swallowed a large mouthful of food: "Hamburger meat sandwich."

"It's just a hamburger..." Arisaki complained, "But, yokan bread or something?"

"Hmm..." Shizi rubbed his chin and looked at the bread on the table, "Then... I'll eat some of them, okay?"

She picked one from each plate. However, when she got to the plate near Satomi, she was shocked: "What is this? Can you put rice in bread? I thought fried noodle bread was outrageous enough!"

"If you like French fries and bread, don't complain about this..." Arisaki said calmly, "This is what Satomi likes to eat."

"Satoshi?" Shizi turned to look over. Didn't Satomi like chocolate snails?

Seeing Shizi looking at her, Rimi shrank her head shyly: "To be precise... it's 'sometimes' me."
