MyGO!!! I am the succubus Xiaoxiang?

"Huh, really? Will the one at the very front fly out?"

"No! Because those in the front have experience and will run quickly, and no one will deliberately bump into each other, except sometimes!"

He answered instinctively.

"Hey, it's so cute!" Xiangzi thought for a moment and said, looking at the lamp in front of him.

It looks like a bunch of penguins.

And what the lamp said was really cute.

"cute?"

The lamp looked at Xiangzi, at the other person saying those words to him.

Yes, am I cute?

Today's Xiangzi is different.

It seems so close.

And I like penguins.

"Xiangzi."

"Ok?"

Can I still tell you about penguins?

"Sure, if you find any cute penguin compilations, you should definitely let me know! Of course, I don't like penguins, I just think they're cute."

"Hmm!!!" The lamp nodded.

Looking at Xiangzi, who was examining the bandage.

It took me a while to remember what I wanted to do.

Did I want to apologize to Xiangzi?

Eh?

But?

Didn't you say you were going to apologize?

Deng looked at Xiangzi, who was sitting next to him, looking at his collection of penguin band-aids and stones.

The two of them hadn't sat this close together in a long time.

An apology? What?

The lamp seemed a little lost.

but.

As expected, I still had to say it.

"Xiangzi."

"Hmm?" Xiangzi was still looking at the stone, casting a little light onto it.

Indeed, the light shining through these stones seems exceptionally beautiful.

It turned out to be the case.

No wonder they're being collected.

Xiangzi didn't like collecting stones.

just.

Xiangzi understands that everyone has their reasons for liking something.

Since these things all have their merits, why not learn to understand and appreciate the beauty of these hobbies?

In this way, you can also appreciate the beautiful things that others find!

It's like the other person helping you collect treasures.

Go even further!

What you thought was beautiful! Now I find it beautiful too!!

This is the beauty that I, Xiangzi, see!

Besides, his fondness for lamps is just a bit odd, not outrageous.

"sorry."

"Huh?" Xiangzi suddenly heard the girl next to him apologize.

"I'm sorry about Xiangzi's amnesia."

"Oh, you mean this?" Xiangzi looked at the other person, realizing that this was what they were talking about.

"It's okay."

Xiangzi replied.

"After all, I went to see it myself. No one dragged me there. I just ran away and got hurt. How can you blame me?" Xiangzi said.

"But."

"If that's how you put it, then I should apologize."

"Eh? Why?"

"Deng-kun," Xiangzi sighed, seeing Deng's eyes immediately darken after he called him Deng-kun. *Don't make that face.* It makes me feel so guilty. If I were a bad person, I'd make your eyes light up and then dim down every day, then light up and then dim down, and I'd really torment you!

"Look, you're feeling down again. You're just called 'Light-kun,' aren't you? Calling you 'Light-kun' is perfectly fine with me, because I don't have any memories of you."

"So, if we're talking about punishment, it has already happened, hasn't it?"

"Light, I'm really looking forward to being called Light. Those beautiful memories, those past memories, are still in my heart, aren't they? But I can't remember anything anymore. It's like those beautiful memories are just illusions. I want to share them, to talk about those beautiful things, but I can't say them anymore."

"And when someone wants to be with me, wants to say something, their unfamiliar gaze must be very uncomfortable, right?"

"So, I'm sorry."

"lamp."

"I'm sorry, I've forgotten all those beautiful memories, the memories of you looking forward to me calling the light, the memories of looking at each other and unconsciously smiling. I'm sorry."

"terribly sorry."

"Xiangzi!" Deng looked at Xiangzi, his eyes becoming watery.

Xiangzi, Xiangzi, those memories of waiting for Xiangzi to call out to his lamp.

Countless times, while passing by.

They hope the other person will call out to them or signal for a light.

After the school was disbanded, every time I passed by it...

They both hoped the other would call out to them.

Never.

Is Xiangzi still angry because he disbanded CRYCHIC?

I didn't dare call out to the other person.

Those beautiful memories have come to an end.

but.

"What's wrong, Lantern?"

It felt like I had bullied her.

Xiangzi thought to himself.

"But, but."

It's just a feeling.

I don't know why, but I feel like crying.

The lamp wiped away its tears.

"Student Deng," Xiangzi said, turning his head.

"Huh?" Deng immediately realized why he had to call his classmate again.

It was a light just a moment ago.

Did I do something wrong again?

"Hey." The lamp, which suddenly turned teary-eyed, startled Xiangzi.

It didn't say it wouldn't be called a lamp anymore, it just...

"Light! Light!" Xiangzi shouted hurriedly.

It got better again in a flash.

Could it be that the girl who seems so incomprehensible is actually a very easy-going girl?

But it looks so eccentric?

Xiangzi shook his head and looked at the lamp.

"The lamp, though, the beautiful memories of the past have faded away."

"But, may I ask, would you be willing to create new memories with me?"

"It may disappear again, or various problems may arise."

"But would you be willing to create new memories with me?"

Even if they disappear or are forgotten, as long as new memories keep emerging, and those memories connect little by little, they are enough to make beautiful memories that one remembers for a lifetime.

"The lamp is willing to be my friend, to create those beautiful things with me again, and to give birth to new memories."

"To be with me through life and death, Ikkyu?"

“Every moment in a continuous sequence, called a lifetime of memories.”

"A lifetime, made up of every single moment, bit by bit?" the lamp murmured.

He looked up at Xiangzi.

Looking back on the present.

The band has fallen apart, a situation both familiar and disorganized.

After saying she was boring, Rakuna stopped showing up and Suze stopped coming to train.

Lixi and Aiyin argue every day.

I don't know what to do anymore.

Do you want to create wonderful memories?

Can it really be created?

The way they looked at each other.

Deng asked instinctively.

"If, if everything disappears, if everything breaks again."

"Then go again on your own initiative, just like now!" Xiangzi looked up, and before he knew it, Deng's hand had already taken his.

"Just like now, let's take the initiative to pull each other together and create something new. Even if forgetting comes chasing after us and sadness gets in our way, as long as we don't want to give up, as long as we still want to create a future, then let's take the initiative and set off!"

“Proactive!” the lamp murmured. “If you want a lifetime, then those moments in the past that are called a lifetime are the memories of a lifetime.”

"Hey? What's wrong? Deng?" Xiangzi looked at Deng, who suddenly pulled him outside.

"You haven't."

"I'm willing, now, and in the future. Right now! I'm going to take the initiative!" Gao Songdeng shouted without turning his head.

"Let's go! Let's go! Together, for a lifetime!"

If you don't want to stop again, if you want to live a lifetime.
