Guitar Hero also wants to play Kasuga Shadow!

It's just... I feel a little envious...

"Um……"

Although this is my first time at Pochi's house, and I had been keeping my head down and not observing Pochi's house, but... since Xiangzi and Pochi said so, I just have to agree...

Pochi, who was standing by, was a little worried when he saw Mu was silent. He turned to look at Mu's pink guitar that he had brought back and said, "Um... Mu, let's play guitar."

"Play guitar?"

It had indeed been a while since he had played guitar. When he heard the words "play guitar," Mu finally reacted. "Now? Won't it... disturb others?"

I play the guitar in the basement which is used for entertainment. There are soundproofing materials all around, so I can play however I want without disturbing others.

But at Pochi's house...if I play it like this, people downstairs will definitely hear it. Is this really okay?

"it's okay no problem,"

Pochi handed her Mu's guitar, "My family...really likes my guitar playing..."

"Oh."

Mu took the guitar, Pochi's words echoing in his mind.

My family members... can also enjoy playing guitar by themselves...

My memory is a little fuzzy, but it seems that since Xiangzi gave me this guitar, I have never heard any praise from my father...

"Eh? Where's... my guitar?"

After returning Mu's guitar to her, Pochi also looked for his guitar where he usually put it, but there was no trace of the guitar.

"Did Erli take it away?"

After visiting Pochi's house several times, I have some understanding of her family.

"There is... there is a possibility..."

Although Erli didn't really like playing guitar, it wasn't impossible for him to suddenly fall in love with it. "I...I'll go look for it."

Pochi closed the door, and only Xiangzi and Mu were left in the room again.

"Mu..."

After a brief hesitation, Xiangzi asked, "Do you have any ideas of your own?"

"My own... thoughts?"

Mu, holding a guitar, tilted his head and looked at Xiangzi, not quite understanding what his idea meant.

"If that man really remains the same and continues to force Mu to do things he doesn't like, will you go back?"

"I……"

I don't dare to face Xiangzi's eyes. I wish I could be as strong as Xiangzi one day...

Thinking of this, he lowered his head and shifted his gaze to the guitar in his arms, "I don't know..."

"Ok."

Xiangzi, who had never dealt with such a matter before, also felt that this matter was a bit out of line, or... should he really tell Mu's mother, tell Mori Minami? But the idea of ​​asking adults for help really made Xiangzi dislike it.

"But...I want to be with Pochi..."

I thought Mu would just lower his head and not say anything more, just like before, but this time, Mu carefully spoke out what was in his heart.

Wanting to be with Pochi... Toyokawa Shoko was a little surprised, or perhaps not surprised at all.

I know exactly what kind of person Pochi is, and I do feel safe when I'm with her, but...

Mu will be staying at Pochi's house for a while. If Mu is going to be with Pochi as he said...

It's not as simple as 'being together' literally?

Shoko Toyokawa raised her head and looked at her childhood friend who had his head lowered and seemed no different from usual. She had no way of knowing what Mu was really thinking.

But even so... I'm a little envious, or rather...

envy……

"Erli, did you play my guitar?"

Mom and Dad were cooking when Pochi came downstairs and asked Erli who was playing with Jimmy Hen.

"No~"

Erli looked up at his sister on the stairs, then remembered that he hadn't touched it, but his father had picked it up and played it today for some reason. "Oh, Dad does play the guitar, but he's terrible at it."

"dad?"

Why did Dad suddenly want to play guitar? With this thought in mind, I walked to the sofa and saw my guitar on the sofa.

Although he was a little confused, he didn't plan to ask at this time. Instead, his father heard the commotion and came out of the kitchen. "Yili, do you know... how Dad's band disbanded?"

"Eh?"

My dad suddenly started talking to me like this, and it was a topic we hadn't discussed much before. I was interested in writing about it, but...

"Why, now... talking about this?"

"Because although I don't know what happened, I still have some understanding of Mu's father, which may be of some help to Mu."

Goto Naoki took off his apron and said, "Well, Ichiri, do you want to listen?"

Some help to Mu...

"Yeah, I have to listen."

Chapter 284 Our Fathers.

"Actually, Dad... started learning guitar very late."

Goto Naoki sat on the sofa, looked at Michiyo in the kitchen and smiled, then she went back to her work in the kitchen.

"Speaking of this, Dad once said..."

Pochi also sat next to his father, holding his guitar. It should be okay to let Xiangzi and the others wait for a while...

"Oh? Did you tell me that? I don't even remember. Anyway, I only started learning guitar when I went to college."

Goto Naoki scratched his head. His easy-going appearance made Pochi compare him with his harmonious father, but the result was very obvious. After all, he still liked his own father.

"After I went to college, I shared an apartment with two other people, one of whom was Mu's father. Under the influence of the other guy, I started playing in a band."

"Another guy..."

Pochi looked at his father reminiscing about the past, and what Mu's father had said before, Xiangzi's father also knew them...

"The other person, is his name... Makino Kurasuke?"

"Huh? Ichiri, how did you know?"

He tilted his head and looked at Yili beside him with some confusion. He should have never said that.

But then I thought, "Oh, it was Mu's father who said that, right?"

"Well...but..."

Pochi nodded, then immediately shook his head, "That Mr. Makino... is actually Xiangzi's father."

"what?!"

Goto's father's exclamation attracted the attention of Erli and Michiyo in the kitchen.

"it's okay no problem,"

After the explanation, I carefully digested what Pochi said.

Xiangzi... is Kurasuke's daughter...

Although we haven't been in touch for a long time, it's because I'm used to this guy's surname being Kurasuke that I'm not so sensitive to the surname Toyokawa... If Xiangzi's surname was Makino, I would definitely ask what Xiangzi's father's name was.

But there was no point in thinking too much now. The question now was, "Xiangzi, does she know about this?"

"Um,"

Pochi nodded, "Yeah, I just found out."

Xiangzi also knows...

But Xiangzi does seem to have some of his shadow.

What's up with that guy Kurasuke now? Why did he even change his last name? Cutting off contact might be a bit too radical. Should I ask Xiangzi about her father?

"Want to form a band?"

The man who was reading a book suddenly spoke and turned to the person who was also reading a book next to him.

"Huh? Why are you forming a band?"

The man who was interrupted looked unhappy and looked at the man in front of him who seemed to be familiar with him.

"Because, it's cool?"

"Why a question?"

"Because, it's cool?"

"Tsk..."

The man who proposed the idea did not give up. He turned to look at the man who was also reading a book on the other side and said, "What about Naoki? He will definitely understand, the band."

"Eh? Me?"

Although I was reading, my attention was always on them.

After all, we are just classmates who attend the same university. We found someone to share a house with online and met each other. We have only known each other for a short time, so we are not particularly familiar with each other.

But the man in front of me—Makino Kurasuke—seems a little too familiar...

But...I don't really hate it...

"The band..."

I closed the book and began to search for my impression of the band in my mind: drinking, perming their hair, playing with women? It seems that the stereotype is just like this.

He turned to look at the guy next to him. He had dark blue hair and was quite handsome if you had to say. However, "I didn't expect Kurasuke to be this kind of person."

"Hmm? Which kind?"

The blue-haired man showed a puzzled expression, but then he quickly realized, "Hey! I'm not playing in a band for some weird purpose!"

"Oh? Then why are you in a band?"

Naoki supported his head and to be honest, he was indeed a little tired from reading.

In order to get into college, I didn't have much fun throughout high school. Now that I'm in college and have some extra free time, I really should try to find something to do.

"Because, it's cool?"

……

"After all this time, you don't have any experience?"

Masao, who had been dragged to the music store for no apparent reason, looked unhappy. "How can we start a band without any plan?" It seemed like this guy was just acting on impulse.

"What do you mean by inexperienced? I can play the piano!"

"Is a keyboard necessary for a three-person band?"

"The keyboard is the soul!"

"Um……"

It was my first time in a music store, and I didn’t know much about anything.

Or, why would someone who knows nothing about musical instruments come to a music store? Goto Naoki also wanted to ask himself this question, "Do you have any musical instruments to recommend?"

"Recommend? Since you don't know anything, just go with your gut."

The man named Kurasuke came over excitedly, very motivated by this thing that interested him.
