Mygo, the band legend of Tokyo handsome guy

"Alright everyone, let's have some tea to calm down~"

Hongxia is a soft-spoken and adorable girl. A gentle angel. But at times, she can be so serious that it makes people feel inferior.

As for whether the Light Music Club should be called the Light Music Club, that was left unresolved.

It is worth mentioning that in the last monthly exam, thanks to the enhancement of his [Academic Ability], Mingze Feng far surpassed Liang, who was in the middle and lower ranks of the class, and was on par with Ijichi Nijika in terms of ranking.

Therefore, replanning Liang's tutoring was put on the couple's agenda.

Yamada Ryo lamented, "We're in the Light Music Club, right? You two, after the Tea Club, have you caught the scourge of after-school tutoring again?!"

So, do you still want tea?

Shouldn't the department head have the final say on club activities?

With gentle words, an energetic smile, a teaching style that is both profound and easy to understand, and the elegant tea-making and serving gestures reminiscent of a Yamato Nadeshiko, both Narusawa Kaede and Yamada Ryo toned down their demeanor somewhat when interacting with Ijichi Nijika.

The bento boxes they ate for lunch were all made by Ichiji Nijika.

Yamada Ryo suggested, "How about we install a stove in the classroom?"

Mingze Feng replied, "It would be nice to have a hot meal."

"Is it really good?"

Ichi Nijika forced a smile.

Sawako poked her head out from under the table: "If you want to heat it up, a microwave will do."

Ijichi Hongxia shook her head.

She couldn't keep up with the train of thought of these three absurd guys. Sometimes, Ichiji Nijika felt that it was a miracle that the three of them, master and apprentice, could come together.

But honestly, it's already ridiculous that the light music club has turned into a tea and snack club and an after-school tutoring center.

Since joining the club, Ichiji Nijika has never seen either of them pick up an instrument.

Instead, the classroom was filled with all sorts of strange objects.

The trinkets Sawako gave her and the various posters Yamada Ryo brought showed that Ijichi Niyatsu and Yamada Ryo shared a similar taste in rock music.

There are times when Naruzawa Kaede goes to the TV station for work, or performs with SickHacK after their reunion, leaving only the three women in the music club.

It's rare for someone to be unable to come for two consecutive days, such as going out on a date with another girl the day before yesterday, having a performance yesterday, or going to the TV station today.

Ichi Nijika was making tea on the side.

Sawako remembered the live performance she had attended yesterday. She had even taken a picture of two people embracing and kissing each other at the very end of the show.

Finally, unable to contain her curiosity, she pulled Yamada Ryo aside and whispered, "..."

"Ah Liang... how far have things progressed between you and Mingze?"

"This is a matter of privacy..."

Ryo Yamada said she was playing video games, then turned her back to Sawako.

Mingze Feng usually plays, but he's not here today, so she plans to give it a try.

Sawako then jumped in front of Yamada Ryo.

"Oh, so you two did that kind of thing?"

"..."

Yamada Ryo turned around again, his back to Sawako.

Actually, the teacher is worried about you.

Sawako Yamanaka sighed. Thinking back, she remembered the person who hadn't paid her debts, and her student, who was anything but endearing.

Have you ever seen Feng's performance?

"Of course I've been there."

"You've seen it, haven't you? It's a regular feature at the end of SickHack's shows."

"..."

Ryo Yamada put down his game console.

She raised her pair of gloomy, lifeless eyes, her aura and gaze sharpening.

"Teacher, can I now assume that you are trying to sow discord between me and Feng?"

"..."

The words that Yamanaka Sawako was about to say were swallowed back by this inexplicable aura.

Ryo Yamada in this state is truly different.

Sawako Yamanaka and the girl looked into each other's eyes.

"Liang, you're not in a normal relationship right now..."

"I know."

"You trust him a lot..."

"Of course."

"..."

"Does your family approve of your relationship?"

“Feng has parents everywhere. As for mine, to be honest, I don’t agree. But I’m not going to listen.”

"How to do?"

"He supports me, I support him."

Yamada Ryo stared into Sawako's eyes.

Those bright, energetic, and sparkling eyes stirred up an indescribable emotion within Sawako.

Sawako's lips trembled, and she swallowed the words that were about to come out.

Yamada Ryo remained calm.

She was surprised by her own calmness as she spoke these words. She simply and naturally voiced her thoughts aloud.

For her, Feng's matter was more important than Bass... no, it had become more important than Bass.

So no matter what the other party says, she has no intention of changing.

She'd heard those words from many people—her parents, relatives, relationship programs, music radio...

Those grand principles have their reasons—

"We must persevere."

"Varied?"

While Yamada Ryo was still in a daze, he looked down and saw that Sawako's glasses lenses reflected the bright colors of sunlight.

Sawako Yamanaka gently placed her palm on the back of Ryo Yamada's hand. A kind and gentle smile appeared on her face.

Yamada Ryo felt as if he were seeing his mother.

"Please persevere."

As Sawako spoke, she sighed.

"Actually, as a teacher—I've been heartbroken many times. When he told me he liked rock music, I vowed to become the most rock 'n' roll girl, only to be told I was going too far; when I found out the boy I liked wanted to be a teacher, I became a teacher, only to realize... what I was like back then..."

As Sawako spoke, her eyes were filled with memories.

Yamada Ryo's lips twitched slightly, and she said, "But you, teacher, are still single. How do you manage that?"

Sawako's face contorted, her cheeks flushed, and she clenched her fists. Her face showed a mixture of seriousness, repentance, pain, and anger. All the positive emotions in her heart were swept away by Yamada Ryo's half-sentence.

—How did this guy survive and grow so big?!

All I heard was her yelling, "What do you know about this called focusing on cultivating feelings?!"

Such a familiar voice.

Yamada Ryo narrowed his eyes, "...Now that you mention it, I remember."

"What are you thinking about?"

"It's nothing."

DEATH DEVIL – a professional band that disbanded a year ago. Lead vocalist and guitarist Katherine was known for her fast playing, tapping, and even playing the guitar with her teeth.

And iconic, ultra-alternative clothing.

Others might not recognize it.

However, Yamada Ryo has this ability to judge people.

In addition, the other party's announcement before the disbandment mentioned that the lead singer went to become a teacher.

Sawako did indeed become a certified instructor last year.

Perhaps it was because she had discovered a little secret that Yamada Ryo's mood improved considerably. She looked at Sawako and lectured her, "Just blindly trying to please the other person won't lead to good results, you know? Both of you need to have personalities that the other person likes."

“I can’t teach you this,” Sawako frowned. “Where were we?”

Yamada Ryo said softly, "Focus on cultivating relationships."

"No, no, no, it's further ahead..."

"Teacher, you said, 'You must persevere.'"

"right."

"I agree with what you said, teacher."

Yamada Ryo chuckled, "If you don't do it, you'll definitely regret it."

"Yes, yes..."

Sawako's gaze was gentler than ever before.

Even if we don't necessarily end up on the right path that everyone points to.

I believe that you will eventually reach the happiest destination for each other.

Ding--

As the microwave oven chimed, Ichiji Nijika walked over carrying a tray.

Ichi Nijika tilted her head slightly, her side ponytail swaying gently as it hung straight down.

The scene before me inexplicably evoked a sense of motherhood and daughterhood.

Sitting in the chair, Yamada Ryo smiled calmly and firmly, while the teacher squatted in front of her, smiling as she held her hand.

"what's the topic?"

Sawako answered cheerfully, "It's the future~ What does Nijika want to be in the future?"

"Actually... I want to form a band."

"Tell me more, the teacher has experience in this area!"

Nijika blushed slightly, set out the tea and snacks, and sat down, scratching her head.

"It might sound ridiculous, but I do practice. I practice drums at the shop, and sometimes I can't help but use the tabletop as a drum during lessons..."

Sawako raised her hand high, her cheeks puffed out with sweets: "Um... I can't pretend I didn't hear you~"

"Haha...of course, the progress is still very slow."

Ichi Nijika smiled.

"But actually, a long time ago, I had a favorite band and met a boy who loved music, and he was really handsome..."

As Ichi Nijika spoke, her nose tingled with emotion. She took a sip of tea to hide her feelings and continued, "I think those drummers who play on stage are really cool. They can express all their emotions through music, whether it's joy or sorrow, and they can tell things that are hard to say in words. That's how it is, isn't it?"

Yamada Ryo nodded and picked up the game console on the table again.

Sawako lay face down on the table, and the table shook slightly when her chest pressed against it.

"It's often said that music is a tool for conveying emotions, and that's certainly true."

"..."
