I shouldn't be a burden to Crychic because of my own problems. Now that I can't return to Crychic, I just need to support them silently from the audience... That's all...

Her gaze remained on the stage, watching everyone from Crychic and Triangle Hatsuxia playing so devotedly, comforting herself in her heart.

Maybe what Su Shi said in the note was right. Xia has replaced my position in the band.

At this moment, Toyokawa Shoko suddenly felt the phone in her pocket vibrate. She was slightly startled, then took the phone out of her pocket and saw an unfamiliar number on the screen.

She answered the phone with some confusion and put it to her ear.

"Hey."

"Excuse me, are you Toyokawa Shoko, the daughter of Toyokawa Kiyoshige?"

There was a female voice on the other end of the phone. Shoko Toyokawa had never heard of this voice before, but the other party said her own name and her father's name.

"Well, it's me."

"Ah, Mr. Toyokawa Kiyoshi is in the police station because of drunkenness. Could you please come and take him back now?"

Eh?

Is my father in the police station now?

Toyokawa Shoko's expression froze instantly, her brow furrowed. Her hand unconsciously clenched around the phone, her knuckles turning slightly white.

"Okay, I know."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Why at this time...

Shoko Toyokawa had originally planned to go backstage to find everyone after Crychic's performance to congratulate them on their successful performance and explain why she had not been training during this period.

But now, she has to leave in the middle of the show to pick up her decadent, alcoholic father.

The tears that had finally stopped began to flow again.

"Chuhua, I have something to do and I have to leave first." Toyokawa Xiangzi's face was dark, and she didn't look directly into the other person's eyes. "Please apologize to Xia and the others for me."

After saying that, she turned around and ran towards the door of the livehouse, tears falling in mid-air.

Normally, a band wouldn't notice this tiny movement in the dim audience while performing, but two people in Crychic kept their attention focused on it.

So, Sankaku Hatsuka and Nagasaki Suyo watched Toyokawa Shoko run out of the livehouse in tears. However, Takamatsu Touma was too engrossed in his singing to pay attention to anything else.

Nagasaki Suyo's eyes followed Toyokawa Shoko's back until she disappeared at the door of the livehouse.

Her brows furrowed slightly, and she looked at her teammates helplessly, only to find that everyone was immersed in the performance of "Haruhi Shadow".

Only Sanka Hatsuka lowered his head slightly, and Nagasaki Suyo, who was standing behind him, could not see his expression clearly.

Everyone was deceived by him!

He asked Xiaoxiang to watch Crychic's performance just to show Xiaoxiang that he had completely replaced her position in Crychic.

He even changed the score of "Spring Shadow" without authorization and completely removed Xiaoxiang's part.

That’s why Xiaoxiang ran out crying so sadly!

Nagasaki Suyo bit her lips tightly with her teeth, her expression was a little distorted, full of anger at Sanka Hatsuka's behavior and her unwillingness to be deceived.

However, she didn't want to ruin the live performance and didn't want to affect Xiao Deng who had finally mustered up the courage to sing, so she could only lower her head and continue playing.

Nagasaki Suyo never imagined that playing bass would be as torturous as it is now.

………………

"...

(Please never let go from now on)

"Never, never let go"

As the last note faded in the air, Crychic's performance officially ended, and the audience burst into warm applause and cheers.

Takamatsu Deng panted slightly, beads of sweat oozing from her forehead. She bowed to the audience, looking somewhat exhausted, and then walked backstage from stage right, accompanied by Shiina Riki.

Ruoye Mu walked up to Sanjiao Chuxia, who was obviously in a bad condition, and gently pulled the corner of his clothes.

"Xia, it's over."

Yeah, it's over.

It's over between Xiaoxiang and I.

The scene of Toyokawa Shoko running out of the livehouse in tears kept replaying in Sanjiao Hatsuka's mind. Shoko's back was so resolute, as if announcing some irreversible ending.

His heart felt like it was being tugged at by something, the pain so severe that he could barely breathe. If it weren't for the lingering professionalism in his heart, he would have dropped his guitar and run after her.

Should I have never joined Crychic from the beginning...

Seeing that Sanjiao Chuxia didn't respond, Ruoye Mu silently took his right hand: "Xia, move."

"Ah."

Sanjiao Chuxia nodded and followed her backstage like a zombie.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Backstage, the next band politely greeted a few people and went on stage.

Shiina Riki wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and hugged Takamatsu Deng with emotion.

"Light! You sing so beautifully!"

"Really? That's great..."

She gently stroked her chest, feeling the rhythm of her heart beating violently in her chest, and a faint blush appeared on her face.

I shouldn't have disappointed Xiaoxiang...

"Why……"

Nagasaki Suyo, who was the last to walk into the backstage, had a gloomy face.

Takamatsu Touma and Shiina Riki, who were still moved by the performance just now, were stunned for a moment.

Nagasaki Suyo suddenly became excited, and her face, which was distorted by anger, was shown to the four people without any concealment, which was very different from the previous impression of her as a "sister with a quiet atmosphere".

Her voice suddenly rose, and the suppressed emotions completely burst out at this moment.

"Why are you playing Kasuga Shadow!?"

………………

ps: "Why do you want to play Kasuga Shadow!?" CG has been collected.

(The CG alienation version of "Xiang, Mobile" is also collected simultaneously)

ps2: I clearly said that I would update at a more peaceful time, but it’s still very dark. I still have to wait for 8am tomorrow QWQ

Ask for a ticket~

Chapter 70 I Want to Quit Crychic

"Why are you playing Kasuga Shadow!?"

"what?"

The joyful atmosphere of the perfect and successful performance was suddenly shattered.

"Didn't you tell me not to change Xiaoxiang's music?"

Nagasaki Suyo said this as she walked towards Hatsuka who remained silent.

"You didn't promise anything like that."

Shiina Riki was obviously a little angry at her unreasonable behavior of pouring cold water on everyone, and took the initiative to take over the conversation.

Moreover, although it was Mikado Hatsuka who proposed the request to modify the score, it was she who finally agreed and carried it out.

Hearing her words, Nagasaki Suyo was stunned for a moment, recalling that no one seemed to have agreed that day.

……

"Okay, okay, don't quarrel over this."

"Even if I need to make changes, I can't do it right away. One song isn't enough for a live performance anyway, so I'll just practice with other people's songs first."

……

When she had an argument with Shiina Riki over this issue, Sanka Hatsuka took the initiative to mediate, but she did not openly take sides and simply brushed the issue aside.

Just now on the stage, it was Sanjiao Hatsuka who took over Wakaba Mu's lead guitar position and took the initiative to play Kasuga Shadow.

Is this also part of your plan, Triangle↓Early Summer↓!

"Everyone has been deceived by Xia."

"what are you saying?"

Nagasaki Suyo turned her head to look at the distraught Sanjiao Hatsuka beside her, gritted her teeth and decided not to believe him anymore.

"This is all Xia's conspiracy. He wants to monopolize Xiaoxiang, so he deliberately separates everyone from Xiaoxiang!"

"Eh?"

"Xiao Xiang, she just ran out crying. Do you know how much this hurt her?"

It was as if Crychic was saying to Xiaoxiang, "We don't need you anymore."

From the very beginning, we were all fooled by him. Even though I was on guard, I fell into his trap unintentionally.

"I hate your pretended gentleness the most!"

Nagasaki Suyo's voice was cold and sharp, like a sharp knife, piercing straight into Sanjiao Hatsuka's heart.

"So Su Shi, is this how you've always viewed me?"

Sanjiao Hatsuka, who had remained silent since stepping down, finally spoke.

He raised his head and looked at Nagasaki Suyo, his eyes filled with complex emotions - pain, disappointment, and a hint of relief.

Forget it. What happens next has nothing to do with me anyway, and there’s no need for me to stay in Crychic any longer.

"Hatsuka..." Gao Songdeng looked at his expression and stretched out his hand with some worry.

However, Sanjiao Hatsuka took a step back and shook her head at her.

"I want to quit Crychic." His tone was very calm, as if he was talking about something that was not important at all. "That's it."

After saying that, Sanjiao Chuxia left the backstage with her guitar on her back, leaving behind a dead silence.

Gao Songdeng's hands froze in mid-air, her eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief. She didn't understand why the live performance, which everyone had been preparing for so long and had successfully concluded, had turned out like this.

Toyokawa Shoko left in tears, and Sanka Hatsuka quit the band - all this happened so suddenly, as if a beautiful dream was shattered in an instant.

Everything is back to square one.

Gao Songdeng lost all his strength, his legs softened, and he collapsed to the ground. His amber eyes lost their luster, and tears silently slid down his cheeks and dripped onto the floor.

"I've had enough... I don't want to... do live shows anymore..."

………………

Outside the police station.

Toyokawa Shoko followed her father out of the police station. The night breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness. Her eyes were still red, and although the tears had stopped, the sadness and disappointment in her eyes had not diminished in the slightest.

"Why do you drink?" Shoko Toyokawa's voice trembled slightly.

"Xiangzi..." Fengchuan Qing said with his head lowered, his steps staggering a little, "Dad will try his best..."

His face was tired and decadent, and he still smelled strongly of alcohol. He looked extremely haggard, which made his words seem even more absurd and unbelievable.

"Father……"

Just as Toyokawa Shoko was about to say something, her phone suddenly vibrated twice. She took out her phone and found that Nagasaki Suyo had sent her two messages.

Nagasaki_Soyo: Xiaoxiang, are you okay?

Nagasaki_Soyo: Can we meet? I want to apologize to you in person no matter what.

Shoko Toyokawa was a little confused and didn't understand why, when she had left without listening to the whole speech, Nagasaki Motoyo had to send a message to apologize.
