"Hiss, it seems to be getting hotter."

Shoko Toyokawa closed her eyes, blocking her vision to make herself more sensitive to temperature.

Hmm...it seems to be getting hotter.

uncertain.

Touch it again...

Is this...is this how real people socialize?!

Too... too rocky!!

Chapter 13 The Drummer of the Band

"Gui'an."

Nagasaki Suyo greeted the other classmates politely as usual, and then caught a glimpse of the light green behind the crowd.

"Well, you guys go first, I have something to do."

After saying goodbye to the other classmates, I walked over to the stupid doll.

"Hello, Xiaomu."

"Um.."

The puppet lowered its head, as if it had done something wrong, and didn't dare to look directly at the other person. Nagasaki Suyo noticed this and narrowed her eyes. "It's really useless..."

"Has Xiaoxiang contacted Xiaomu?"

"Um..."

"Oh, so how is Xiaoxiang doing now?" With her hands crossed, Nagasaki Suyo gave a classic smile.

"She...felt like she was fine."

"Really."

Feeling okay...does that mean I'm not doing well?

"Does Xiaomu know where Xiaoxiang is?"

"..."

Wakaba Mu opened her mouth but lowered her head in silence, not knowing how to answer. Although Xiangzi asked her to tell Su Shi that she had moved, she still couldn't say such a lie.

"As expected, Xiao Mu can't be relied upon at times like this."

"After the club is over, I'm going to meet the new band members. Um... I already have two guitars, but Xiao Mu wants to come? *

"I'm not going..."

"Is that so..." Nagasaki Suyo narrowed her eyes, thinking back to that rainy day. 'I've never felt happy playing in a band before'...

...

It was rare for Shoko Toyokawa to not listen carefully, or rather, she couldn't listen at all.

When the bell rang for class in the afternoon, I was still rubbing Pochi's face. When I came to my senses, I found that Pochi's face was already red and steaming, and he couldn't even speak.

And now Pochi is drowning in the ocean of knowledge again. I wonder if Toyokawa Shoko glances back to observe her state. It’s better to say that Pochi’s dazed look is a bit cute.

The situation remained deadlocked until school was over in the afternoon. After a fierce ideological struggle, Shoko Toyokawa prepared to apologize to her while playing the piano.

"Wave..."

Before he turned his head and uttered the first syllable, he caught a glimpse of the gray-haired figure at the back door of the classroom. He quickly stopped talking and stared at his empty desk, which had already been cleaned, pretending to be busy.

"Hey~ Pochi~" Chihaya Aine called out to Pochi at the door, saying that she was going to the ring with her. Although Takamatsu Deng beside her didn't plan to go, she also wanted to walk with Pochi for a while.

Hearing someone calling his name, Pochi finally came to his senses and looked outside. "Oh...oh." He quickly gathered his things, put his guitar on his back, and stood up.

As soon as I took a step forward, I found that Shoko Toyokawa was still sitting there.

"Xiangzi... aren't you going to play the piano?"

"No... no." Toyokawa Shoko didn't look up, pretending to be busy. "If Pochi has something to do, please leave first."

"Oh...oh." Xiangzi...is really busy...thinking so, he walked out the door.

"Pochi, you're so slow~" He pretended to be angry.

"Yes, yes...I'm sorry."

"Haha, Pochi's reaction is still so funny."

Takamatsu Deng ignored their conversation and looked at the blue-haired girl sitting there.

'How is she doing?'

He never even asked for the most basic concern. Every time he saw her, he treated her like a stranger and even quickened his pace to wait for him.

"It was all my fault back then..."

"Deng...are you thinking about the past again?" Goto Ichiri looked at Deng, who had become depressed, and took her hand. "Shoko-kun, you are a very powerful person..."

"Hmm?" Deng didn't react to what she wanted to say.

"He's always so organized, always making plans for himself, and he's a brilliant student. I can't compare to him at all..." Looking up, Deng's expression grew even more puzzled. "So... So, Xiangzi will definitely take care of himself. We... shouldn't worry so much."

"I see..." Takamatsu Deng understood what Pochi wanted to say, "So Pochi-chan wants to comfort me..."

Even though I don't know what happened, even though I'm not used to comforting others, am I still clumsily caring about myself?

At this point, Gao Songdeng took a last look at Xiangzi who was still sitting there, squeezed Pochi's soft hand, and said, "Then let's go."

"Uh-huh."

"Eh~" Chihaya Aine on the side looked at the two people holding hands with interest. When did their relationship become so good, from joining the club, to feeding at noon, to now.

What? This feeling of being left out...

"Ai...Aine?" Pochi turned around and looked at Aine who was still standing there in confusion.

"Here it comes." Aine stepped forward and took Pochi's other hand. "Pochi's little hand is so soft." She played with it for a while.

“Eh…eh?!”

"Hehe, I'll hold your hand more often in the future."

...

In the classroom, Toyokawa Shoko watched them leave through the window and couldn't help asking herself, 'Do you also want to stand beside them like that? ...'

After realizing what was happening, I was shocked by my own thoughts. Toyokawa Shoko, are you still so weak? Longing for these unrealistic things.

At this point, Shoko Toyokawa patted her cheeks, stood up, and faced her work today.

...

After sending Touma on the train home, Pochi and Aine came to the entrance of the ring.

"Let me see, Sushi-san told us to wait for her in the coffee shop inside."

"Coffee...coffee shop." I recalled my last experience at Yuze Coffee Shop.

"What's wrong, Pochi-chan doesn't like coffee shops?"

“Neither…nor.”

"Then let's go in~" He took her hand and walked towards the coffee shop.

Chihaya Aine looked around the coffee shop with curiosity, and after finding a seat with Pochi, she opened her phone to take a picture.

"Oh!"

"Eh!..." A glass of water was slammed down on the table, startling Pochi.

"Ahh~ The person I don't want to see shows up." Chihaya Aine raised her head and found that it was the black-haired girl who had quarreled at the door that day.

"Why are you here?" Shiina Riki looked at the pink-haired girl who had been bothering Deng a few days ago with an unhappy face, and then looked at the other pink-haired girl who was looking at him timidly on the side. Is this... his sister?

"I come whenever I want!"

"Tsk, whatever you want."

"Ahhh~ I'm so angry!"

At this time, the door of the shop opened, and Shiina Riki saw the familiar chestnut hair and walked forward, "I told you I won't..."

"Gui'an, little Pochi and little Aine." He glanced at Lixi, "And little Lixi."

"Tsk..."

"Eh? Do you know each other?" Chihaya Aine looked at them in surprise.

And Pochi was trying hard to recall this name that he seemed to have seen somewhere - Lixi.

"Yes~" Nagasaki Suyo also sat down, "Lixi, we want to order."

"Tsk...what do you want?"

"I'll just stay the same. And this is not right~"

"Eh~ what's the old way?"

"Hot Earl Grey tea."

"That sounds great. I want the same thing. Where's Pochi?"

"Eh...eh?" Pochi, who was still trying to recall, was interrupted. "Then...then the same to me."

"Three cups of hot Earl Grey tea." Shiina Riki said as he walked backstage.

"Well... today we should talk about the band, right?"

"Yeah, we need to consider the instrumentation and stuff. We have to decide on the members first. I'll play bass, and Pochi and Aine will be on guitar."

"Yeah, I'll be the lead guitarist."

"We still need a keyboard player," Li Xi came from the backstage with water, "I already have a candidate for the drummer..." As he said this, he looked at Li Xi who was standing beside him.

Oh! Oh, Shiina Riki! The drummer from my old band! Pochi suddenly understood.

"What." Shiina Riki was as cold as ever.

"We're going to form a band together. Li Xi should come too."

“Eh?!” Aine slammed the table in protest.

"I do not."

"Why?" Nagasaki Suyo seemed to know that Riki would refuse, and immediately asked.

"Huh?" Li Xi didn't expect to be questioned even after expressing his attitude.

"Mr. Sushi, I don't want this person!" Everyone else temporarily ignored Aine's opinion.

"What will you do if Xiao Deng also wants to be with you..."

Chapter 14 It’s No One’s Fault...

"Deng won't join." Shiina Riki was surprised when he heard Deng's name.

"Why?" Nagasaki Suyo kept asking, leaving Pochi and Aine confused.

"The lamp is injured!"

"Hurt..." Hearing this word, Nagasaki Suyo also felt a real pain in her heart, "Everyone is hurt..."

"Hmm?" Chihaya Aine looked at Suye and Riki who had fallen silent, then looked at Pochi who seemed to want to say something but didn't, "What's going on..."

"Humph.."

Shiina Riki didn't want to pay attention to this bad joke and let Deng rejoin the band...the beautiful memories of crychic came to his mind again.

"Little Lixi..."

You were the one who invited Deng to join the band, and you were the one who abandoned the band. So where are you now?! Toyokawa Shoko!

"Lixi!"

"Huh?!" He realized that the cup in his hand had overflowed and flowed onto his hand. "I'm so sorry, Senior Saaya!" He bowed deeply. He had been working for a long time but still made such a low-level mistake.
