People are in the music show, but the Yorozuya

After all, firstly, Onuma Sota had nothing to do with her past, and secondly, the band's affairs did not touch her bottom line of dignity.

The only things she really wanted to hide, the things she didn't want to tell anyone, were her father's failure in managing the company, which led to huge debts, and the fact that she and he left the Toyokawa family, and that her father was now drinking every day.

So she told Otonashi Sota about how she met Takamatsu Teru in the past, formed a band, and finally quit the band due to some personal reasons.

After saying these things, Shoko Toyokawa obviously felt a lot more relaxed.

"Oh, no wonder you're avoiding Su Shi. It's because he wants to reunite the band, but you don't have that intention, right?"

Although it is a story that has been heard once, the last time it was told from Xiaomu's perspective, and this time it was told from Toyokawa Shoko's perspective, which still brought a lot of fresh experiences to Otonashi Sota.

"Yes, as for a band...it's not that I don't want to form one, but I wouldn't form a band just for fun with students."

Toyokawa Shoko nodded and told others her expectations for the future for the first time.

She had kept many things in her heart for a long time, but now, she felt that in front of Otonashi Sota, it might be an opportunity to talk about it.

"I understand what you mean. You want to bring your talent to a stage that suits you better, right?"

Otonashi Sota picked up the water cup and shook it towards her.

"That's fine, sister. Water flows to the lowest places, and people strive for higher places. Given your music's critical acclaim, I think it's the right thing for you to have your own plans for the future."

"Well, thank you for your understanding, senior."

Shoko Toyokawa suddenly felt much more comfortable, but also a little sad.

In fact, if she wasn't forced by life, why wouldn't she want to play the band friend game with her friends? After all, she was just a girl who had just entered high school.

Oh, if I were rich, I could keep everyone around me.

"But I think if you have the chance, you'd better make things clear to her. After all, Tokyo is so small. Do you want to hide from her forever?"

"No, Otonashi-senpai, you don't understand how persistent Sushi is... If I could just explain it clearly, she would have let me go long ago."

Toyokawa Shoko smiled bitterly and said,

"In fact, in the first month after the band disbanded, Sushi sent me messages every day and also came to me privately to try to get me to return to the band."

"But I've told her countless times, both online and offline, but she still won't give in, so I can only hide and ignore her."

"Tsk tsk, that girl's obsession is so deep? It seems I underestimated her."

Otonashi Sota couldn't help but click his tongue, where did this yandere girl come from?

To be honest, if Nagasaki Suyo wasn't obsessed with the band, he would have suspected that there was something wrong with her sexual orientation.

Isn't this Toyokawa Shoko a little prettier, a little prettier, and a little cuter?

Is it necessary for Nagasaki Suyo to chase someone so closely?

When Naruto pursued Sasuke, it was about the same level, right?

Oh, this is the bad Konoha friendship!

"I say, Toyokawa, why don't you just follow Nagasaki Suyo and go back to Konoha with her? Otherwise, if this continues, I feel like she'll open your box sooner or later, break your legs, and bring you back to the band."

Otonashi Sota said.

"...Although Su Shi is very persistent, she wouldn't go to the extent you described, right?"

The corners of Shoko Toyokawa's mouth twitched slightly, and she couldn't help but complain.

After all, Su Shi is the well-educated Miss Yue Zhisen. How could she do something that would damage her image?

(PS: Nagasaki Suyo is really interesting. When I asked her if Kasuga Shadow sounded good, she said it didn’t have the rhythm of Toyokawa Shoko.)

Chapter 34: Roadside refresh and eating grass

"Did you know I have a way to keep you safe from Nagasaki Suyo's harassment?"

Otonashi Sota held his chin with his hands crossed, a wise gleam in his eyes.

"really?"

Upon hearing this, Toyokawa Shoko immediately looked at him with curiosity and surprise.

"It's simple. You just tell her that the reason you left the band was because you wanted to play professionally. If she wants you back in the band, she has to beat you on Valorant first. How about that?"

Otonashi Sota said seriously.

Toyokawa Shoko: “….”

Well, it was a waste of her emotions to have expected anything from this guy just now.

"Don't think I'm talking nonsense. Think about it, why does she keep pestering you? Isn't it because you can't tell her why you're quitting the team?"

"Since you can't tell me your reasons, then you need a perfect excuse, a legitimate reason that no one can refuse."

"...legitimate reason?"

Toyokawa Shoko admitted that she couldn't help but be curious again.

"Yes, that's a legitimate reason."

Otonashi Sota smiled faintly.

"The reason I, Otonashi Sota, have been able to roam the world safely and soundly in this life is because I have a legitimate reason that no one can refuse."

"For example, when I was late for school because I stayed up late, when the teacher asked me about it, I would say that I saved a dog that was almost killed by a car on the road, and then the rich second daughter in the car was moved by my selfless act for the dog and insisted on getting out to date me.

But our school prohibits dating, so I rejected her with all my heart, but she kept pestering me. In the end, I resisted the temptation and returned to school, so I was late.

".....ah?"

Toyokawa Shoko was stunned by what she heard. This Onuma Sota, was he trying to make fun of her?

Putting aside the question of why someone would have to make an excuse for being late for school, even if you did, couldn't you at least make something plausible? Like, say, being sick or having a fever? What the hell is this story? Why don't you just write a novel?

Toyokawa Shoko tried hard to suppress the urge to complain, mainly because recently whenever she complained, Otonashi Kanata would pat her on the shoulder with a satisfied look and say, "Toyokawa Shinpachi, your complaining skills have really improved."

So who is Xin Baji?!

"Well? Was it useful? If you need it, I have hundreds of legitimate reasons that will definitely make that Nagasaki Suyo give up."

Otonashi Sota said with a smile,

"For example, the reason you left the team was because you awakened the power of light and became the successor of the Light Bond, and you had to fight against alien beasts to protect the lights of thousands of homes.

Or maybe he remembered his memory of being a pharaoh three thousand years ago, and he had to find someone to play cards with in order to find his original name and return to the underworld..."

"...No, no need. Anyway, I'll leave Su Shi's matter to you, Senior and Hong Xia and the others. I believe that if she can't find me in Fanxing, she will give up in a few days."

Listening to Otonashi Sota's reasons, which were one more outrageous than the other, Toyokawa Shoko felt that her complaining spirit was about to be aroused.

In order to avoid becoming a real complainer, Toyokawa Shoko had to end the topic quickly to prevent Otonashi Sota from getting crazy again.

But it must be said that after being teased by Otonashi Sota, she felt that the things that were weighing on her heart didn't seem so heavy anymore.

So if she is really found by Su Shi, should she say that she came to Wa solo, or say that she is the heir of light?

-----------

The time has come to the next day, today is Saturday, and because Otonashi Sota has always adhered to the principle of not working on weekends, Toyokawa Shoko will not come to the store to work these two days.

Of course, Teacher Daxiang feels very sorry about this.

After all, you can't find a job anywhere else that's as easy and well-paid as the one at the Yorozuya.

As a worker, she wishes she could work 996 every day without any rest all year round.

But this reckless spirit was severely stopped by Otonashi Sota.

Just kidding, he came here to enjoy life, not to work.

I think a senior person in the working world once said: Work is not about striving for value, it is labor in exchange for remuneration. Taking a break from work is how you strive for value for yourself.

It's a pity that when Otonashi Sota told this theory to Teacher Daisho, he was looked at as if he were a fool.

Later, Otonashi Souta thought that there was nothing wrong with this theory, but the problem was that he seemed to be the boss himself...that's fine.

Anyway, we should have a rest this Saturday and Sunday!

So today, Otonashi Sota slept soundly until almost noon, and only got up lazily from the bed when he felt hungry. After a simple wash, he went downstairs and prepared to go out for breakfast and lunch.

However, not far after he walked out of the store, he saw a familiar figure squatting on the lawn by the roadside.

Otonashi Sota walked closer and took a look, then gasped in shock.

I saw our cool tomboy Miss Liang grabbing a handful of wild grass and stuffing it into her mouth.

No, sister, are you really going to eat it?

I thought you were just talking nonsense for show, but it turns out you were serious?

Otonashi Sota didn't have time to think about it, he quickly took out his cell phone from his pocket and took a picture.

The sound of taking pictures immediately caught Miss Liang's attention. She followed the sound and saw Otonashi Sota taking pictures of her with his mobile phone.

Yamada Ryo's eyes suddenly lit up, but he didn't stop him from taking pictures. He just waited for him to finish taking pictures, stood up from the ground, and stretched out his white and tender little hand towards him.

"Photos cost 3,000 yuan each. Thank you for your patronage."

"Give it."

Otonashi Sou generously took out three thousand and put it in Miss Liang's hand.

He felt that the three thousand yuan was well worth it to be able to see the performance art of a beautiful girl eating grass up close.

“The boss is awesome!”

Miss Liang's eyes lit up and she happily stuffed the money into her pocket.

"So why are you eating grass here?"

Otonashi Souta asked curiously.

"Because I went to a music store last night and bought some things I liked, my wallet is empty."

Yamada Ryo commented calmly,

"I originally wanted to come to you today to see if I could get a free meal, but when I got to your shop, I found it was closed. Then I was hungry, so I found some edible weeds nearby to fill my stomach."

"I see. But are you sure this grass is edible? It won't upset your stomach, right?"

Otonashi Sota said with some doubt.

"No problem. I'm an expert at identifying various edible grasses."

Miss Liang gave a thumbs up and looked very proud.

Although I don't know what to be proud of.

"So are you full?"

"not yet."

Yamada Ryo touched Bian Ping's belly and cast an expectant look at Otonashi Sota.

"That's perfect. I know there's a bigger meadow over there. I'll take you there and I guarantee you'll have enough to eat."

Yamada Ryo: “….”

No, buddy?

(PS: The bravest moment in Takamatsu’s life was not when he sang Kasuga Kage in front of Toyokawa Shoko, nor when he first performed on stage in his costume, but when he said to Chihaya Aine, “Let’s form a band for life.”)

Chapter 35: Stealing Lin is Coming

Of course, taking Miss Liang to eat grass was just a joke, and Otonashi Sota wasn't really that bad-tempered.

Since Miss Liang came to him specifically to have a free meal, how could he not give her face?

In fact, Otonashi Sota is very happy to treat his friends to a meal. After all, he is not short of money. It is more interesting to eat and chat with friends than to eat alone.

So after asking Miss Liang for her opinion, Otonashi Sota took her to a nearby ramen restaurant.

I can only say that Miss Liang still has some moral integrity and did not really treat him as a sucker.

"Otonashi, what are you doing today?"

While waiting for the ramen to arrive, Miss Ryo asked Otonashi Sota what his plans were for the day.

"Hmm... Let me think about it. After dinner, I'll go back home to watch a movie, play some games, and then go to RiNG to see a band performance in the evening. That's about it."

Otonashi Souta thought about it and said.

On his days off, unless he has any special plans, he usually stays at home, and sometimes he goes out traveling.
