The little penguin must tell her past experiences in person, even if... it will remind the girl of those painful memories.

When you go to the hospital for treatment after suffering an injury, the first step is to clean the wound. If you don't expose the wound, it will be buried deep in your heart and slowly deteriorate.

"call……"

Sakuragawa Aki sighed slowly, without showing any strange expression on his face, and suppressed the trace of pity that arose in his heart.

"I remember... Deng seemed to have formed a band in the past."

"……Eh?"

Chihaya Aine turned her head, her light grey eyes slightly widened, and she looked at him with a dazed expression.

The boy leaning against the window had a tall and slender figure, his arms folded across his chest. The sunlight cast a golden tinge on the ends of his jet-black hair. His black eyes, as calm as lake water, were quietly looking at the two girls with a quiet and indifferent expression.

Although they had only known each other for a short time, Chihaya Aine, who had outstanding social skills and observation skills, already had a general understanding of his personality traits.

This handsome boy usually doesn't have big mood swings. At first glance, he seems a little cold, but after in-depth communication, you can find that he is actually very gentle at heart, and he knows how to communicate with others. His ability to read people's expressions should be no less than yours.

This didn't sound like something that would come out of the other person's mouth. There was no way he hadn't noticed Dengjiang's strange reaction just now.

Then why...

Looking at Takamatsu Deng who was beginning to look nervous again, Chihaya Aine began to think quickly in her mind.

To embarrass her? To prevent the girl from getting too close to him?

This possibility only surfaced in her mind for a moment before she quickly dismissed it.

Not only was the possibility too low, but her kind heart was unwilling to accept this result. The other party would not be such a deep-minded person. There must... there must be some deeper reason.

Gao Songdeng pursed her cherry lips, with a hint of nervousness and uneasiness on her little face. Her fingers were intertwined in front of her chest, and a few strands of short gray hair hung from her ears, like a wounded cub.

Chihaya Aine let out a light breath and continued speaking as if she hadn't noticed anything.

"Huh? So Deng-chan was in a band before. I wonder what kind of band it was? Did you have any original songs?"

She spoke as if she didn't notice anything unusual, but her tone began to become very gentle, and her sweet voice was like a soft whisper in the ear.

"The band...is no longer playing." Takamatsu Touma's voice trembled slightly, and his watery eyes trembled slightly as he whispered.

"Why? Was it because the previous band was unhappy, or did something happen? Did the band members have a quarrel with each other?"

Sakuragawa Aki slowly walked over, from the side of the little penguin to the front, gazing at the beautiful amber eyes with a slightly gentle gaze.

"No...it's not like that. It's my...problem."

Gao Songdeng seemed to be afraid to look him in the eye. He lowered his head slightly and muttered.

"It's my fault... that the band broke up."

Chapter 20: Too Hard

[The introverted girl reveals the pain buried deep in her heart to you. Past memories keep coming back to her. Her current state is very unstable, but you can sense a hint of abnormality in her words. It seems that the truth of the matter is hidden. You decide -]

[1. Continue to ask questions and get to the bottom of the matter. I'm determined to find out who made the mistake.]

[2. Stop asking questions and comfort Gao Songdeng.]

[3. Shift the topic to Chihaya Aine, who was standing nearby, and prioritize soothing the pink-haired girl.]

[4. Bored, I went straight back to the classroom to chat up a red-haired girl.]

…………

Why are you still asking this? You really think I don’t know the truth, human-like system.

Do you know what a multi-round player is?

By the way, why do I feel that this option is becoming more and more like the selection branches in a galgame? Maybe in the end, I can enter everyone's personal line...

I'm a firm harem fan.jpg

Never mind, why bother with so much? It's just a tool to gain +3 experience.

'Choose two.'

There is no need to continue questioning the little penguin here. This matter cannot be rushed. The real intention of this questioning is not to untie Xiao Deng's knot in her heart. In fact, the real purpose is directed at... Chihaya Aine.

Spare ㈨60㈠2⑥贰⑦○

She must be aware of the little penguin's abnormality in advance, so that she can start to slowly heal Takamatsu Deng's emotional trauma.

Moreover, Yuqiu now has a big problem.

What is different from the plot is that there are not many people playing in bands in the class, only two or three groups are playing, which is far from the situation where "all the classmates are playing in bands, only Takamatsu Deng is not in the band."

Chihaya Aine's original intention of wanting to form a band was to "fit in". Since the whole class was playing, I naturally had to form or join a band too.

She was a little vain, and because she wanted to stand in the center of the stage as the lead singer, she rejected her classmates' invitation and chose to form her own band.

Even though I ended up playing just the backing guitar in a girl band, not even the lead guitar, and even had to constantly withstand pressure, and occasionally faced the risk of being optimized...

...Wait, when I think about it this way, it is indeed a bit too tragic.

I always feel a little guilty about it, so I'll treat her to a meal some other day as compensation.

So, to sum up, he had to give the girl a little push from behind. Since external conditions did not allow it, he could only create the conditions.

Although he didn't know whether Chihaya Aine would still end up joining Mygo if he didn't intervene, since he chose to intervene, he naturally had to take some responsibility.

The scene around him slowly returned to normal. Gao Songdeng stood there at a loss, with a sad expression on his little face and muttering words of self-blame.

"It's me... I didn't sing well, and the band... disbanded."

Sakuragawa Aki glanced at Chihaya Aine who was trying to appear calm. The girl was quickly thinking of words that could comfort her.

Unfortunately, she currently had too little information, and had no way of verifying Takamatsu Deng's statement that "it was all her fault". She could only try her best to appease the other party.

"Is that so? Then you must be very sad."

Chihaya Aine tried her best not to meet Takamatsu Deng's eyes to avoid putting further pressure on her, and just spoke in a gentle tone.

"But, isn't it okay if we just work hard next time and avoid making the same mistake again?"

Gradually, her expression became serious.

“Even if you fail once, you must believe that you can start again. Otherwise, life is so long that you will eventually give up.”

Miss Aine was truly agitated, as this sentence was already subtly directed at her.

"Eh?"

Gao Songdeng looked at her blankly, and the sad expression on his face began to disappear gradually.

……not good.

However, at this moment, Sakuragawa Aki did not feel that everything was fine at all.

On the contrary, he knew very well that this little single-celled penguin had completely failed to understand the full meaning of the other party's words.

She simply activated the keyword extraction function and captured the word "restart" from the other person's mouth!

Ⅰ澪弌⒉2叭⒊○⑼/

I'm afraid it will take a lifetime to start from now on!

In that case, no matter how great Aine-chan is, she would probably be frightened by the sudden huge gravity and be at a loss.

If the little penguin is hit again by then, all the previous comforts will be in vain.

“Deng, I may not understand your past.”

Sakuragawa Aki slowly walked up to Takamatsu Deng, attracted her attention, stared into her light golden amber eyes, and asked with a gentle and serious expression.

"But... do you feel happy about forming a band?"

The dark pupils calmly gazed at the girl in front of him. Her petite and cute figure was reflected in the clear pupils, and seemed to emit a soft halo under the sunlight.

"Joining the band... do you regret it?"

"……Eh?"

Gao Songdeng stared at him blankly, opened his mouth slightly, but no sound came out.

At this moment, all kinds of memories from the past came to her mind, happy, sad, fearful, happy, uneasy, touching, reassuring...all kinds of memories mixed together, making her mind a mess for a while.

"It's ok."

Sakuragawa Aki stretched out his hand and placed it on the girl's head. The soft touch of hair appeared on his fingertips. He gently rubbed the little penguin's short gray hair and spoke slowly.

"Even if I can't answer it right now, it doesn't matter. Just like Aine-san said, life is very long. There's no need to rush into making decisions."

Slimming: ba yi si jiu ling san qi jiu ba

"...Okay, lunch break is almost over, and we have to go back to the classroom."

Sakuragawa Aki smiled faintly, looked at Chihaya Aine who was standing beside her, and spoke in a slightly cheerful tone.

"Aine-san is transferring here on your first day. If you're late by accident, it won't be good for your classmates and teachers."

"Ah! It's already this late."

Chihaya Aine reacted quickly, cooperated with him to open her phone and take a look, then took Takamatsu Deng's hand, and her tone became energetic again.

"Deng-chan, hurry up, or you'll be late."

"Eh? Ah... um."

Takamatsu Deng looked at Sakuragawa Aki in a daze, and then was pulled by the pink-haired girl obediently and walked quickly towards the classroom.

Her thoughts were a little confused, and she couldn't think of the answer to the question Qiu had just asked her.

Sakuragawa Akize locked the door of the Astronomy Department behind them, and then used his long legs to slowly follow behind the two of them.

The three of them hurried all the way and finally returned to the classroom before the afternoon bell rang.

"Phew~ Safe, safe."

After Chihaya Aine returned to her seat, she immediately lay down on the table, feeling lazy and not wanting to move.

The little penguin in the front seat had the least physical strength and was breathing a little rapidly at this moment.

"You're really working hard, you're worthy of being an excellent student." Sakuragawa Aki, who had the best physical strength, leaned casually on the chair, looked at the pink-haired girl with a smile, and said in a leisurely tone.

“…Whose fault do you think it is?”

Miss Chihaya Aine said this a little angrily, and added a new attribute to him in her mind.

Bad taste.

Chapter 21 Is Being in a Band for Life Too Heavy?

"--So, you're deliberately trying to expose the scars in Deng-chan's heart?"

Downstairs in the Hanegaoka teaching building, in front of the vending machine, Chihaya Aine folded her arms across her chest, her beautiful light gray eyes slightly narrowed, quietly looking at the boy who was bending over to get a drink.

"Well... more or less. After all, you saw Deng's reaction before."

Sakuragawa Aki took out the max coffee he had purchased and looked back at the pink-haired girl behind him.

"What do you want to drink?"

“…Strawberry juice.”

Chihaya Aine wrinkled her nose cutely, played with a strand of pink hair that fell on her chest with her fingers, and continued speaking.

"So, you're just thinking of using me to get more information about Deng-chan's past?"

"Using something is too harsh to hear."

Sakuragawa Aki took out the strawberry juice and handed it to the girl. Seeing her take it, she smiled slightly and spoke slowly.

"Actually, Deng and I only spoke to each other yesterday."
