There are always girls in bands who want to date me

This ability to connect emotionally with others is unique to little penguins.

Even if Aine encounters setbacks, she will always try to move forward. Even if she suffers a blow, she will adjust and encourage herself.

These are all deeply engraved in Gao Songdeng's heart, and are the direction and goal she wants to work towards.

So, Aine-chan didn't escape!

This is the truest emotion in the little penguin's heart. She is very grateful to Ain for her contribution to the band, and also grateful for her leading her and encouraging her to move forward.

It is precisely because the little penguin has also experienced similar emotional struggles that he can understand Chihaya Aine's feelings, her pain and sadness at this moment.

On the road ahead, there are not only endings, but also new beginnings!

The disbandment of Crychic once left everyone lost and confused.

Li Xi who is slowly groping for his way forward, Su Shi who is running around for his former 'family', and the little penguin who is curled up in place and unable to move.

It was Aine and Akira who suddenly barged in, stretched out their hands to pull Takamatsu Deng up from where she was, and spoke softly to her, "How can you stand still because of a temporary failure?"

People always have to move on.

So, just like the little penguin who had been emotionally encouraged before, Chihaya Aine could naturally also receive encouragement from the little penguin.

She took a deep breath and held the paper handed to her by the little penguin tightly in her hand.

"Lost...?"

Chihaya Aine raised her head slightly, looked at Sakuragawa Aki who was smiling beside her, and then looked at the little penguin in front of her.

"Then... let's move forward together and get lost together." The girl showed a relieved smile on her face, as if she had finally let go of the heavy knot in her heart.

"Ok!"

The little penguin nodded heavily, and couldn't help but feel happy when he saw Aine-chan in front of him who had finally regained her energy.

"Hmm... So, are you planning to keep this well?"

Sakuragawa Aki nudged Aine-chan lightly with his shoulder, pointed at the paper she was holding tightly against her chest, a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he lowered his head and whispered teasingly into the girl's ear.

Seeing that Aine-chan was able to let go of her worries, he finally felt relieved.

“…Really? If you know, then don’t say it out loud~”

Aine-chan puffed out her cheeks slightly, a blush appearing on her fair and pretty face, as if she was feeling a little shy. "Qiuqiu, that idiot... has such bad intentions."

Facing the girl's whispered accusations, Sakuragawa Aki shrugged, saying that he was "innocent".

"Well...but."

Sakuragawa Aki looked at the paper written on the back of the photocopy, thought for a moment and said.

"Since Xiao Deng has written something on it, wouldn't it be more memorable if we both wrote something on it?"

"Hmm... That's a good idea~"

Chihaya Aine blinked her light gray eyes, thought for a moment, and suddenly became interested.

She asked the little penguin for a black gel pen, moved closer to Sakuragawa Aki, and searched for a blank space on the paper, looking thoughtful.

"Hmm...what should I write?"

"Since you haven't thought about it yet, let me write it first."

Sakuragawa Aki blinked lightly, took the gel pen from Aine-chan's hand, and placed the paper on the back of her hand.

"Qiuqiu, what are you going to write?"

Chihaya Aine held Sakuragawa Aki's shoulder with one hand, stood on tiptoe, and looked at the place where he was writing with curiosity.

On his other side, the little penguin also came over, its little head with short light gray hair pressed against his chest, a hint of curiosity on its delicate little face.

With his eyes slightly lowered, he felt the fragrance and soft bodies of the two girls beside him. Sakuragawa Aki smiled slightly and wrote a short word below the word "Lost Child" written by the little penguin.

『友达（Friend）』

"..."

Qian/Xun Jiu㈥○①②⑥２⑺○

Chihaya Aine gently pulled his sleeve with one hand, raised her light gray eyes slightly, and looked at the very handsome face of the boy next to her, with a serious expression between his brows.

The girl clenched her slender fingers slightly, and felt a warm current emerging from deep within her heart, like a flower field under the spring sunshine.

"Autumn……"

The little penguin beside him also raised its head silently, looked at him with its big amber eyes without blinking, and whispered softly.

"Well, that's OK."

Sakuragawa Aki handed the gel pen to Chihaya Aine and then said with curiosity on her face.

"What about Aine? What do you want to write?"

The pink-haired girl blinked gently, a soft halo shimmering in her light grey eyes, and her fair face looked crystal clear under the dim blue light of the aquarium.

She deliberately took a big step back, her movements like a cute little pink rabbit.

Then, Aine-chan took the gel pen and quickly used her arm to support it, writing a word on the paper.

? ?

Looking at the girl's actions, Sakuragawa Aki and the little penguin couldn't help but look puzzled.

"...So, what did you write?"

Chihaya Aine turned the tip of the pen and held the paper tightly against her chest with one hand, as if at this moment, the A4 paper copy that was printed out and could be seen everywhere had become an invaluable treasure.

A beautiful smile appeared on the girl's face, her long pink hair fluttered, a slightly charming blush appeared on her cheeks, and her two cute little canine teeth glowed slightly under the soft light of the aquarium.

"Secret~"

Chihaya Aine said in a sweet voice.

…………

In the city under the night sky, stars are shining, neon lights are a little dreamy, and cars are speeding on the road, like winding strips of light.

——An open-air cafe that has closed down.

Nagasaki Motoyo and Shiina Tatsuki were sitting on the steps not far away, with their hands around their knees and their heads slightly lowered, with five school bags scattered around them.

Before, as Chihaya Aine broke through the defense and ran away, the few of them naturally didn't have time to even take their schoolbags with them.

0 million yuan

Just then, three figures slowly walked towards them.

"...Lixi."

She heard Nagasaki Suyo's soft call in her ears, and the black-haired girl with a depressed and lost expression on her face raised her head slightly.

I just happened to see three people walking side by side.

"Hey~Qiuqiu, I told you it would be better if we held hands."

Chihaya Aine, who was walking in the middle, complained softly. One of her hands was tightly holding Takamatsu Touma's small hand, while the other hand was empty.

"……don't want."

Sakuragawa Aki put his hands in his pockets and said with a look of disgust.

"Three people holding hands and walking down the street looks so silly. Are they elementary school students?"

"Wow...Qiuqiu, you big fool~"

While chatting and laughing, Sakuragawa Aki and the other two came to the side of Nagasaki Suyo and Shiina Riki.

"..."

Chihaya Aine pursed her lips, her expression seeming a little nervous.

“Aine.”

Sakuragawa Aki gave her an encouraging smile and gently touched her shoulder.

The other little penguin also looked up at her, his little hands slightly clenched, and a hint of warmth came from his palms.

"I...we're going to participate in the Live!"

Chihaya Aine took a deep breath and spoke loudly.

She no longer wanted to escape and wanted to muster up the courage to continue walking with her friends.

Even if you get lost, keep moving forward!

Chapter 113: I've never held Tou Mo Ling's hand! ?

It was still the familiar road, the familiar dim street lights, and yellow and black metal railings erected next to the crisscrossing railway lines as a sign of no entry.

The whistle sounded slowly, and the outline of the tram gradually became clear, slowly passing in front of the two of them.

Sakuragawa Aki carried his schoolbag in one hand, yawned lightly, and felt the power filling his body, which made him feel a little strange.

Ever since he obtained [Physical Fitness Level 3] from Aine-chan, the physical strength he had consumed in chasing Aine and carrying her back has been restored at an extremely fast speed, and even the slightest feeling of fatigue has been swept away.

He clenched his fists slightly, and clear muscle contours appeared on his forearms.

Although he has not yet achieved the extremely exaggerated and obvious muscle effects of bodybuilding stars, he can now see some signs of long-term training.

It's interesting that just [Physical Fitness LV3] can improve so significantly. What if I get [Strength LV3] next time?

The natural body?

The breeze brought by the passing train blew the girl's long black hair. Shiina Riki covered the long hair floating by her ear with one hand, turned her head silently, and glanced at the boy next to her who was somewhat interested.

It was late at night.

Before, after the band members reunited, they had a brief exchange and then went back to their respective homes due to time constraints.

Sakuragawa Akira and Shiina Riki still took the tram and got off at the "Kishimojin-mae" station with the little penguin. They were then sent to the Chiseidō Bridge to say goodbye to the girl.

Along the way, Brother Lixi seemed a little silent and kept walking in front silently.

However, Sakuragawa Aki was no longer surprised by this. After all, when the three of them chatted on weekdays, it was Brother Li Xi who spoke the least.

Feeling the breeze brushing against her cheeks, the girl with long black hair pursed her lips and spoke to the handsome boy next to her with a little hesitation.

"...Did you guys say anything before?"

Sakuragawa Aki raised his eyebrows and looked at her with some surprise.

Instead of asking what we said to Xiao Deng, you asked what we said to each other? Big drum team, your focus seems a little off.

Could it be that he has changed the person?

A little flustered by his gaze, Shiina Riki quickly lowered his eyes and spoke with some stammering.

"I, I'm just curious, why did that guy suddenly change his mind, and... why is that guy holding hands with Deng!?"

"That's really not frank, Li Xi." Sakuragawa Aki shook his head and sighed softly.

However, this sentence seems to be sincere, especially the last question.

Maybe the drum team members were silent all the way because they were questioning their lives after what they saw.

8

Why did my sneaky Zero come back holding hands with that stinky pink-haired guy after chasing him out?

Even I haven’t held the lantern’s hand yet! ?

Something like this (laughs)?

"The reason for holding hands... well, it's normal for close friends to hold hands~" Sakuragawa Aki smiled teasingly.

"……what?"

He ignored Li Xige's expression of complete disbelief, blinked slightly, and said meaningfully.

“As for what we discussed earlier and why Aine changed her mind, wouldn’t it be easier to just ask her directly?”

The reason why the arrogant drum player asked this question was naturally that he was a little concerned about what happened to the pink-haired girl, but he was a little embarrassed to say it out loud because of his face.

After all, the main reason for the previous quarrel in the band was because of himself, and Ms. Nagasaki Motoyo disappeared, so now that everything is over, the drum team members will naturally feel a little guilty.
