There are always girls in bands who want to date me

"Do you want to eat too?"

"…Thank you, I'm not hungry yet."

"Speaking of which, thank you so much. If it weren't for this meal, I would probably have fainted from hunger on the side of the road."

“—Pfft, hahaha.”

"?"

Sakuragawa Aki looked at the blonde girl opposite him whose shoulders suddenly began to tremble and who was trying hard to suppress a smile, and tilted his head in confusion.

"Ah, sorry, sorry, it's just that you reminded me of a good friend. Um... Come to think of it, you and she give off somewhat similar vibes."

"is it?"

"Well, she often goes hungry and has to borrow money from others to eat."

"... Doesn't that sound bad?"

"Ah, it's not what you think. It's all her own fault."

Ijichi Hongxia smiled and waved her hand, her body swaying slightly, as if she felt a little relaxed, and her golden side ponytail swayed slightly at her shoulders.

"Um, my name is Ichichi Hongxia, what's your name?"

As soon as the girl finished speaking, she noticed that the young man's gaze seemed to pause slightly, and then he looked at her thoughtfully.

"...Um, my name is Sakuragawa Aki."

After a moment's silence, Sakuragawa Aki spoke slowly.

"Um... Sakuragawa-kun?"

"Just call me by my name. There's no need to be so formal. After all, you're my savior."

"No, don't use that language. I just treated you to a meal. It's not that serious."

"But, because you wanted to treat me to a meal, you got wet too..."

The blonde girl in front of Sakuragawa Aki had one shoulder of her shirt soaked by the rain, leaving transparent water marks on her white T-shirt, and her pair of white shoes were covered with mud spots.

The two of them just jogged all the way to this restaurant. Ijichi Hongka was holding the bag of ingredients, while Sakuragawa Aki followed behind, holding an umbrella for her.

However, although the bag full of food was well protected, a small umbrella obviously could not do more, and half of the girl's body was still drenched by the heavy rain.

"Besides, it's causing trouble for the store clerk."

The two people sat on the chairs, all wet. I guess the restaurant staff would have to clean up again after they finished their meal and left.

But what was strange was that although he had said before that they could just eat at the door, the waitress still argued with him and even pulled them into the restaurant in a somewhat forceful manner.

Also, for some reason, the clerk's face seemed to be red...

"It doesn't matter. It looks like the rain won't stop for a long time anyway. I'll always get soaked when I get home. It's actually thanks to Qiu Jun that these ingredients were perfectly preserved."

Ijichi Hongxia waved her hand and a full-of-energy smile appeared on her face.

"Ah, as for the salesgirl..."

As she spoke, she secretly glanced at Sakuragawa Aki who was concentrating on eating. Her gaze paused slightly when it met that face, and then she added in a low voice.

"...There should be no problem."

"I'm full, thanks for the treat."

"Qiu Jun, are you really full? You can order another one, you're welcome."

Ijichi Hongxia looked at him with concern, her tone full of sincerity.

"I know boys tend to eat bigger, so don't mind me."

Ah, is she an angel?

Put your hands together, Rainbow Gate~

"No, I'm full. Besides, I've already eaten two servings."

The two servings of curry rice fed by Hongxia Mama are so fragrant~

"Really? That's good."

After confirming that he was not just being polite, Ijichi Hongxia felt relieved.

The two said goodbye to the shop assistant who was still blushing and returned to the eaves outside.

"It seems like it won't stop for a while." Looking at the dark clouds in the sky, Yidi Chi Hongxia murmured.

Sakuragawa Aki didn't respond. He had never even been to Japan in his previous life, so how could he know when the rain would stop here.

Even this name was improvised based on his name in his previous life.

It should be said that it was a good thing that the system gave him the ability to speak Japanese.

"Speaking of which, where does Qiu Jun live?"

Ijichi Hongxia tilted her head, a hint of curiosity on her face.

You've asked the right person.

"You may not believe it, but I've actually... lost my place to stay."

"Eh?"

As if she didn't understand what he said, Ijichi Hongxia's red eyes like red crystal widened slightly, and a slightly silly expression appeared on her cute little face.

Well, is it because the remarks were too childish that we were completely out of sync?

What a pity. I wanted to be more tactful.

"Sorry, I'm actually homeless right now."

“诶诶诶？？”

…………

——Time returns to the present.

Sakuragawa Aki and Yamada Ryo were walking side by side, each holding a large bag of drinks in their hands.

This is an industrial product that is placed in a beverage machine. Generally speaking, a large bag can be used for a long time.

"...Huh, come to think of it, for this kind of physical labor, shouldn't the boys be more responsible?"

"Miss Liang, be careful or I'll report you to the Gender Equality Association."

As if due to lack of physical strength, Yamada Ryo walked very slowly, while Sakuragawa Aki matched her pace and walked leisurely.

"But...but you...look like you still have some energy left...huh..."

Slowly, Yamada Ryo's body began to sway from side to side. He looked very exhausted, and even his words became intermittent.

"That's true. If Miss Liang could act a little more convincing, I'm afraid even I wouldn't be able to bear the inner torment and condemnation, and would be soft-hearted and help you."

"……fraud."

Seeing that his acting skills were exposed, Yamada Ryo immediately returned to his usual cool demeanor, walking normally with the drink bag in both hands.

You scumbag woman, are you really just pretending?

"Actually, at the beginning, I wanted to help Ms. Liang share some of the burden."

"Oh? Why did you change your mind later?"

“Because I imagined it.”

“…Imagination?”

"I struggled forward, carrying a heavy drink bag in both hands, while Miss Liang walked leisurely with nothing in her hands, occasionally making a soft, mocking sound."

Sakuragawa Aki glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and said calmly.

"Every time I think of a scene like this, I feel my fists hardening."

"I wouldn't do anything that extreme."

Yamada Ryo slowly looked away and added in a low voice.

"……perhaps."

The two walked slowly for a while, and Sakuragawa Aki spoke again to break the silence.

"In fact, I think the main contradiction in this matter is that one party needs to endure a lot of physical exertion, while the other party does not have to pay anything. This is a typical result of uneven distribution."

"That makes sense, so what you mean?"

"So I thought about it. If I carry Miss Liang on my back and she carries two large bags of drinks, wouldn't both of us have contributed?"

"That makes sense." Yamada Ryo turned his head and silently rolled his eyes at him. "But if the store manager knew we did something stupid like this, we'd be in big trouble."

"That's right."

…………

The air became quiet again, with only the sound of crisp footsteps echoing in the empty corridor.

"...Why did you approach Hong Xia?"

After a long silence, Yamada Ryo whispered these words.

"That's really not like you, Ryo-senpai."

Sakuragawa Aki smiled slightly.

"Shouldn't you tell me at this point what your purpose is in approaching Hong Xia...?"

“…They’re all the same.”

"Yeah, that's true. Let me think..."

Sakuragawa Aki narrowed his eyes slightly, looking leisurely at the dimly lit aisle in front of him. After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke.

"My answer should be... coincidence."

①○ 辷㈡⑵仈彡澪⒐/

"Oh, that's how it is."

After hearing his answer, Yamada Ryo still seemed to have no big reaction, and just responded calmly.

…………

To be honest, his encounter with the girl named Ichichi Hongxia was indeed a coincidence.

At first, he was thrown into a foreign country with a confused look on his face, and he didn't even know the way around.

After studying with the human-like system for a long time and finally understanding the current situation a little, two options suddenly popped up in front of me.

[To Shimokitazawa]

【To Ikebukuro】

This was his first option after traveling through time.

Looking at it now, it is indeed a very important choice.

He chose to go to Shimokitazawa, met Ichichi Hongka, and by chance came to work at "Fanxing".

Now that I think about it, Ikebukuro must have been that one.

『RiNG』Livehouse.

This is where the legendary black-haired pressure monster Shiina Riki works, and it will also be the future venue for Mygo's activities.

So the option on the first day is to choose the initial working location?

So, why do I have to work?! Can't I just be reborn as a wealthy second-generation kid with no worries about food and shelter? After fighting my whole life, can't I just enjoy myself a little bit?!

The reason why he chose Shimokitazawa is very simple.

——Close.
