There are always girls in bands who want to date me

And now, the last band member has finally appeared, and he's actually taking the blame for himself!?

Is this some kind of blame-sharing meeting?

Isn’t it amazing? It will give you a little shock even to normal people. Sakuragawa Aki on the side supported his chin with one hand and sighed slowly.

None of them look like humans!

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, he had to change the subject.

"...Hmm, so Mu-san, you came here today to look for Toyokawa-san?"

(nod)

Xiao Mutou nodded slightly.

She didn't seem to feel unfamiliar with Sakuragawa Aki, perhaps because of his friendliness, or perhaps because he made her feel very comfortable.

It wasn't a cold, masked question, but one that was calm with a hint of concern, as if he was considering the issue from her perspective.

The words were neither overly intimate nor distant.

It feels like... the former Xiangzi.

However, Xiangzi has a very kind and warm attitude, and he...

"But it looks like Toyokawa-san doesn't want to see you, right? After all, you caused such a commotion at the school gate earlier, there's no way she didn't notice."

Sakuragawa Aki tapped the table lightly with his knuckles and spoke thoughtfully.

"The side door of Yugaoka is far from the shoe cabinet. Normally, students don't choose to go that way. It seems that Fengchuan is deliberately avoiding you."

"So, what are your plans for the future, Mu-san?"

He looked at the delicate little face of the green-haired girl, lowered his eyes, and asked softly.

"..."

Ruoye Mu was silent for a moment, his eyes lowered.

If Xiangzi really didn't want to see her, then she had no other choice. Coming to the school to block the door was already the limit of what Xiao Mutou could do.

Miss Suyo could go straight to Saki's hometown without caring about anything, but Mutsuko couldn't do that because she knew that if she did that... it would make Saki unhappy.

It is really difficult for Xiaomu to be caught in the middle and suffer from both sides. He has to take care of Su Shi's emotions and not make Saki unhappy.

At this moment, Chihaya Aine asked curiously.

"Speaking of which, Mutsu-chan, why did you come to see Toyokawa-san? Is there something important?"

"Because, Su Shi..."

Xiao Mutou muttered something and then stopped immediately.

I probably shouldn't tell Xiao Deng about this, especially since Su Shi's new band members are here...

However, it's too late.

When she said Nagasaki Suyo's name, the little penguin and Aine-chan looked at her with very surprised expressions.

Feeling that he had said something wrong again, Wakaba Mu lowered his head, a trace of depression appeared on his delicate little face, and he fell completely silent.

Billion○㈠弍２ノ╲⒊澪⒐捌

As expected, once I speak, I become...

Sakuragawa Aki shook his head. This was actually also his contribution, after all, he was also deliberately guiding the topic.

This little guy would say things like "I've never had fun playing in a band", "It won't last long", or "Saki, move". He basically said anything and was truly a master of intelligence.

You can always trust Chief Intelligence Officer Xiao Mutou!

"...Su Shi, do you want to see Xiangzi?" the little penguin murmured softly.

This simple-minded girl didn't think much about it. She just felt that Nagasaki Suyo must have something to say to Xiangzi, and there must be something important that she wanted to convey to Xiangzi.

However, when these words fell into Chihaya Aine's ears, it was completely different.

The clever Aine-chan has now connected all the clues.

Classmate Su Shi is from the same school as Xiao Mu in front of her, and she also asked her to contact Xiangzi. In this way... it seems that all the former band members of Xiao Deng are gathered together?

The pink-haired girl turned her head and glanced at Sakuragawa Aki who was standing beside her with a very calm expression, and opened her mouth slightly.

…No, I can’t ask Qiuqiu here, at least not in front of Dengdeng…

Aine-chan took a deep breath, a sweet smile on her face, and said to the girl with long light green hair in front of her.

"Sorry, Mu-chan, for asking you such a strange question. Um...actually, Suyo-san is also a member of our band."

"Ah."

Ruoye Mu, who was still immersed in his recent gaffe, nodded calmly.

She had already heard this news from Nagasaki Suyo, including the fact that she was trying to form a band with Takamatsu Touma and Shiina Riki.

She is also happy for Su Shi that she was able to "come out" of the shadow of Crychic's disbandment.

"Hmm... So, Mutsu-chan and Toyokawa-san have a good relationship? They knew each other before forming a band?" Aine-chan asked again.

"Saki, it's my childhood sweetheart."

A hint of softness flashed across Wakaba Mu's doll-like calm face.

"Oh, I see."

But if we were childhood sweethearts, why can't I contact her now? Not replying to messages? Breaking up?

Several guesses flashed through Aine-chan's mind.

"Mu-san, you've been talking about Toyokawa-san." At this moment, Sakuragawa Aki on the side smiled and interrupted the conversation between Aine-chan and Mu-san.

He spoke thoughtfully to Wakaba Mu beside him.

"Why don't you talk more about yourself? Although Deng isn't very good at expressing herself, I think she's also concerned about Mu-san's recent situation."

"mine……"

Ruo Yemu lowered her eyes and did not continue speaking. She picked up the mango juice in front of her and took a small sip.

There is so much to talk about with her.

The daughter of renowned actress Minami Mori and comedian Takafumi Wakaba, she has been incredibly eye-catching since birth, appearing on various variety shows and earning widespread recognition and adoration...

However, those were not hers, those... were not Mu's.

The only thing that belongs to "harmony" is the guitar.

Ruoye Mu pursed his lips, lowered his head slightly, and replaced his answer with the silence he had always maintained.

When faced with questions she couldn't answer, she could only choose to remain silent.

However, the next words from the boy next to her made her raise her head, her light golden eyes slightly widened, staring at the other person blankly.

"...Xiao Mu, when was the last time you felt happy?"

Sakuragawa Aki held his chin with one hand, his handsome face full of calmness, but his tone was full of meaning.

Chapter 131 Give Me Some Time to Grow

As Sakuragawa Aki finished speaking, the three girls present looked at him with a little surprise.

Everyone was silent for a moment.

"...Qiu, Qiuqiu, what are you talking about all of a sudden!?" Chihaya Aine smiled awkwardly and immediately spoke to make amends for him.

She clasped her hands together and spoke to the girl with long light green hair beside her.

"I'm sorry, Mu-chan, what Qiuqiu meant was... uh, he hopes you can always be happy."

If you ask a young girl if she feels happy right away, you will definitely be considered a weirdo!

Moreover, she's a cute girl like Mu-chan...

But, thinking about it carefully, could it be that Qiuqiu is... fascinated by this girl!?

Aine-chan quickly compared herself with the other person in her mind, and then felt relieved.

What? I’m obviously very cute, but Qiuqiu has never asked me if I’m happy.

The pink-haired girl puffed up her cheeks slightly, but she quickly put this little emotion behind her.

Because she found that the delicate girl in front of her did not seem to change her attitude after being comforted by her.

His light golden eyes drooped slightly, and Ruo Yemu lowered his head calmly, thinking silently.

The other party's seemingly unintentional words really touched her heart.

How long has it been since I felt happy?

Was it when I was watering cucumbers yesterday? Or was it when I was playing guitar alone in the basement last week? Or was it when I was having fun with everyone from the original Crychic?

No, it seems...it seems even farther away.

That was, in the beginning.

When she first touched the guitar, it should have belonged to her, to the personality of 'Mu', the only time it was not mixed with any impurities... She was happy.

But after that, no matter how hard I tried, no matter how many times I practiced...

'Mu', none of them could make the guitar sing.

"Guitar……"

A hint of confusion appeared on Ruoye Mu's calm little face. He lowered his head slightly and murmured softly.

"Eh? Guitar?"

Chihaya Aine looked curious. They were clearly talking about happiness or unhappiness, so why did they suddenly turn to the guitar?

Oh, yes.

The light grey eyes blinked slightly, and the pink-haired girl belatedly remembered.

Xiao Deng is the lead singer, Rikki is the drummer, Su Shi-kun is the bassist, and Toyokawa Shoko is the keyboardist...

Then, the Xiao Mu in front of me should be the guitarist!

So that's how it is. From this perspective, Xiao Mu and her are really destined to be together. They are both guitarists in the same band, and... they are both very cute~

Hehehe~

Chihaya Aine's eyes suddenly softened when she looked at the green-haired girl.

How dare you, a T4 guitarist, get involved with Mutsuko Mi-chan, a T1 guitarist!?

Even if we don’t talk about the metaphysics of guitar songs not singing, he didn’t make a single mistake when he performed on stage!

Well, of course if you play it wrong, it’s all over and you’ll have to start over.

By the way, what the hell is this debuff? Do all of you talented guitarists have to have some obvious flaws?

The unruly and self-willed cat, the little Mutou who can't play a wrong note, the extremely socially anxious Pochi-chan, oh, and a mature older sister who can't form a commercial band at all.

It can be considered as a top-level torture for teammates.

Looking at the pink-haired girl's conceited expression, Sakuragawa Aki sighed helplessly.

This pink-haired Aine-chan is still the best. Except for not being able to play the guitar, she is basically perfect (laughs).

"Hey, Mu-chan, do you want to play guitar?"

Chihaya Aine asked with some interest.

“…Huh? Guitar…”

There was a hint of hesitation on Wakaba Mu's little face. After all, she was not able to make the guitar sing.

Besides, I didn’t bring my guitar with me today.

"Let's go to the practice room and play guitar. It's okay. If Mu-chan wants to play, you can use mine~"

Chihaya Aine said in a sweet voice with a lovely smile on her face.
