Volume 2 Mygo!! Chapter 2 Tokyo and London

"Long time no see, Little Lamp~"

The flaxen-haired girl smiled and ordered a drink, but she had already forgotten about the lantern's taste preferences. After all, not everyone has the sense of responsibility that Yuzuki has to try to remember everyone's preferences.

“Soyo…”

Deng couldn't help but reach out, wanting to make some physical contact with Su Shi. She didn't know how to solve the problem, so all she could do was entrust her trust to her companion, hoping that her companion would solve... the problem she wanted to solve.

Su Shi took on this responsibility and gently patted Deng's shoulder to comfort the girl with dark circles under her eyes.

"Has Xiaodeng not been resting properly lately? She looks terrible..."

Is it because you miss everyone at Crychic that you haven't been able to rest properly? You're such a good girl... Don't worry, Xiaodeng.

I will definitely bring Crychic back.

"Eh, lately I've been... closing my eyes."

Then I'll think of Jieyue.

She thought of the happy Yuzuki, the Yuzuki who smiled at her, the Yuzuki who questioned her, and the Yuzuki who cried her heart out to her.

Su Shi gently pulled her into his arms to comfort her, whispering words of solace in her ear.

"This isn't Xiaodeng's fault."

These were all Chika Yuzuki's fault, but she knew that Akari valued Yuzuki highly. Therefore, she couldn't say those words to her face.

"No...it's all because of me. It's because of me that Yuzuki got bored, that Yuzuki and Riki argued, and that Xiaoxiang and Yuzuki both left the band!"

The lamp found a suitable outlet for her venting. In her eyes, Su Shi, who knew everything, should know that it was all her own fault.

But Su Shi would never accept such a confession, no matter what.

Even if it really was Deng's fault, seeing his pale face and dark circles under his eyes, Su Shi would give up forcing Deng to repent because of her soft heart.

Moreover, it wasn't the light's fault at all.

It's all that woman named Chika Yuzuki's fault.

You're living a comfortable life, aren't you? Yuzuki? Isn't it easy being the only one who left us all behind?

Xiaodeng and Xiaomu are unhappy because of you, and Xiaoxiang and Lixi have left because of you.

And yet, you haven't said even a single apology to them.

It's really unforgivable.

With a smile, Su Shi hugged the lamp, which had stopped crying, and gently wiped away the tears from her eyes.

"Okay, Little Light~ Get some rest when you get home. Tell me about anything else on Line, okay? Soyo will take care of everything."

Soyo... will handle everything...

The lamp gently bit its lower lip and let out a short, soft hum.

"Ah."

Su Shi will solve everything, I believe in Su Shi…

She stood up, leaning on the lamp, and slowly walked towards the station. Nagasaki Motoyo was still pondering the entire logic behind the keyboardist named Chika Yuzuki's actions.

Because there were simply too many inconsistencies, she decided to start working on another hypothesis.

However, before making any assumptions, there is one last thing to prepare.

"Little lamp~"

The sweet voice easily broke down Deng's defenses.

"Has Xiaoyue not contacted Xiaodeng at all?"

His icy blue eyes narrowed slightly, trying to determine whether the lamp's next answer was a lie.

The exhausted gray-haired girl gently shook her head.

No lies.

"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaodeng... Before you get off the bus, you can lean on me and take a nap, okay?"

This is a reward for good children.

Su Shi smiled and hugged Deng's head, placing her on her shoulder.

Hmm… Yuzuki herself must know that she hurt the fragile little light. And she has never even apologized once…

This is not in line with Yuzuki's personality; she is a very gentle person... Even if she sees Kodama as an enemy, she wouldn't be so indifferent.

That leaves only two possibilities. The first is that Yuzuki has encountered unprecedented difficulties, to the point that she has no way to continue contacting Kodama.

But... what difficulties could Yuzuki possibly encounter?

Su Shi couldn't understand it.

If she encounters difficulties, wouldn't it be better to tell us? We can all work together to help Xiaoyue find a solution... Or does she simply not care about us at all?

That's not right either. If she didn't care... Yuzuki wouldn't have done so much. Those lunchboxes from those days couldn't be sustained by just saying "I care"... Yuzuki was also searching for something in Crychic.

Like me, she was searching for a warm home... but in the end, she left because of Lixi...

Is that so? Yuzuki... left because of Riki, so what did Riki do? What is the direct connection between Sho and Yuzuki, who left first?

Why does Xiaodeng keep saying it's her fault?

But it's okay, I've already found a clue. Next... once Xiaodeng gets home and rests, I'm sure I'll get more clues from her.

With a sly yet bright smile, Su Shi gently patted the girl who was sleeping soundly in her arms.

"Little lamp~ We've arrived at the station."

……

As for the other hypothesis, Su Shi kept it deep in her mind. It was a hypothesis she wouldn't consider unless absolutely necessary; right now, she was more inclined to believe that Yuzuki had encountered some difficulty that even she couldn't tell everyone…

And Xiao Xiang is likely helping her solve this problem.

This also explains why it was impossible to contact either of them.

Su Shi opened the refrigerator, took out some coffee beans, and began to make a strong, bitter coffee. She hoped that these few cups of coffee would help her get through this night, which she would need to talk to the lamp for a long time.

She's not a night owl, but sometimes... people have to learn to compromise.

She is trying to compromise.

If you don't know what to eat, you can just grab something from the fridge.

Ok…

Surprisingly, we found several large dates. She doesn't like overly sweet things, so she probably wouldn't have bought these...

Is this for Mom? But Mom doesn't like it...

She suddenly remembered something.

Continuing to search in the refrigerator, they found some lily petals that had already dried out.

These are the ingredients for a lily and jujube soup, and this lily and jujube soup... has already been sent out, to that person's hands.

Although she had long forgotten that person's evaluation, Su Shi still made a decision.

She could never make a soup like that again in her life. At least not until Yuzuki explained what had happened and obtained everyone's forgiveness.

Seriously... Yuzuki.

You really are a troublemaker... Or is this the real you? Are you just like this, someone who enjoys causing trouble for others?

Never mind, that's not important... Little Lamp came to find me.

……

The gray-haired girl sat blankly on the edge of the bed, clutching her phone. A short rest improved her mental state a little, but only a little.

What does Su Shi want to ask me?

How should I answer? What if I don't know? What if I'm unclear and ambiguous? Will it cause more problems for Su Shi...?

Anxious, fearful, and afraid that she would fail again this time, the girl swallowed hard.

I wanted to take a few konpeito from the candy jar on the table to relieve my anxiety, but then I realized that I had already eaten the last candy yesterday.

She even squandered Yuzuki's final gift...

The lamp was breathing softly, lying on its back on the bed, covering its eyes with the back of its hand.

This will allow her to quickly adjust her mindset.

Because there are things that must be done and questions that must be answered seriously.

Feeling the slight vibration in her palm, she sat up again.

I looked at the message Su Shi sent on Line.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, she began to answer Su Shi's questions.

Why does Xiaodeng think it's her own fault that everyone is stopping coming to Crychic?

His fingers tapped out responses on the screen, one by one, belonging to Takamatsu Akira.

"Because I invited Riki on the same day that I invited her in the same month."

Su Shi excitedly saved the message and then continued to ask questions.

"If I remember correctly, Lixi chose to go out with Xiaodeng that day? And it was because I suggested that Xiaodeng go to Lixi... right?"

Seemingly to support her point of view, Su Shi quickly found the post that Deng had made on WeChat Moments.

The scene shows Deng laughing happily, and Lixi looking somewhat absent-minded.

That's right, it was Nagasaki Motoyo who suggested that Kotomi invite Riki when she couldn't find anyone else to play with.

"Uh...yes."

Great, it's connected now.

"Because Riki didn't agree to Yuzuki's promise, Yuzuki and Riki had a fight... which led to what happened that day, right?"

The lamp blinked. Su Shi's general idea was correct, but she needed to help Su Shi fill in many details before...

such as…

"It's because that day, Yuzuki decided to confess to Riki... but Riki chose to go with me... so Yuzuki thought it was me..."

Confession? !

Su Shi was stunned for a moment.

Mu's words, which she had never believed, echoed in her mind again.

Yuzuki likes Riki.

But... how could this be?! No matter how you look at it, there's no way Yuzuki could like Ritsuki!

"Wait a minute! Is Xiaodeng sure she asked Lixi to confess her feelings on the day of the moon?!"

This is crucial information and its authenticity must be verified.
