As Ruoye Mu and Gaosong Deng were pulling at each other, the blue-haired girl's pupils immediately contracted when she heard the name Motisi!

"Tomori, how did you find out about Metis...?"

At that moment, not far from the group, Toyokawa Shoko turned the corner and was about to approach the entrance of Tsukimori Campus.

Why doesn't Mu Zimi reply?

My message?

She looked down at her phone, which hadn't responded, and looked frustrated.

Faint shouts came from afar, and curiosity prompted Toyokawa Shoko to look up. But in that one glance, she saw a scene that she would never forget for the rest of her life.

The person closest to her was Mu Zimi, and Xiao Deng was tightly tugging at Mu Zimi's sleeve, her face full of heartache and pain. Not far from the two of them, Chu Hua stood quietly; she was her childhood sweetheart whom she had just reunited with at noon.

Most importantly, Su Shi, Li Xi, and Ai Yin, as well as most of the people from Mygo, were all by Chu Hua's side.

Toyokawa Shoko's eyes widened, her heart churning with a storm of emotions, a complex mix of feelings surging within her.

"Little Lamp...why are they here?!"

Toyokawa Shoko murmured to herself, a hint of unease and anger flashing in her eyes!

Volume 2 continues! Chapter 152: Explosion, explosion, explosion!

Moon Forest is a place that holds painful memories. If possible, Toyokawa Shoko thought it would be best to never see it again. However, Mutsuko's delayed reply to her messages forced her to come here in the end.

However, she never expected to see Deng, Chu Hua, Ai Yin and others here.

"What exactly... do they want to do?"

Various speculations surfaced in Toyokawa Shoko's mind, and she felt a growing sense of unease.

She no longer wanted to be associated with the band or with her past memories, but the past kept finding her, like an inseparable shadow.

Why can't we just let her forget everything?!

His bangs obscured his golden pupils, his backpack slumped limply over his shoulder, and he stopped walking.

My emotions are like a raging torrent, yet I can't find an outlet.

There can be no outlet for her emotions, because that's something she, Toyokawa Shoko, herself has sealed off.

All that could be seen was Mu's pained expression, and the culprit seemed to be Xiao Deng.

Without thinking twice, Toyokawa Shoko ran at top speed, her footsteps echoing as she approached Wakaba Mutsu and Takamatsu Akari.

"Tomori, what are you doing?!"

A familiar voice suddenly rang in his ears. Gao Songdeng stared wide-eyed and looked up, only to find that the person was Xiangzi.

"Xiangzi..."

Before Takamatsu Akari could finish her rambling, Toyokawa Shoko forcefully blocked Wakaba Mutsu's path, looking at Takamatsu Akari with obvious hostility.

"Mu Zimi, are you alright?"

She turned back and glanced worriedly at the pale-faced girl, her expression full of concern, but when she turned back again, her expression returned to one of distance and threat.

"Xiangzi!" "Xiaoxiang!" "Xiaoxiang!"

The unanimous calls echoed from nearby, and Toyokawa Shoko frowned slightly, a vague sense of dread creeping into her heart. But for Mutsuki's sake, she…

We must stand here.

"Chuhua, why are you with them?"

Toyokawa Shoko's gaze was like a sharp, cold arrow, piercing straight into Mikasa Hatsuka's heart.

"Xiao Xiang, um, it's a misunderstanding. I came to find Ruoye to help me set up Ave Mujica..."

Triangle Chuhua was sweating profusely, somewhat surprised and doubtful, never expecting that Toyokawa Shoko would actually appear here.

After learning about Xiaodeng's memories, she clearly understood what the members of Crychic meant to Xiaoxiang: nightmares, sadness, and taboo pasts that could not be mentioned.

"Is that so, Mutsuko?"

“Yeah, Saki… but I rejected her.”

She rejected Hatsuka? Toyokawa Shoko's expression was slightly taken aback. Actually, she had come to see Wakaba Mutsu today for Hatsuka's sake. She wanted to hear Wakaba Mutsu's opinion on forming a band.

But now, things are going to get complicated; it seems like the unexpected always comes first.

"I'm sorry, Little Lamp."

Mikasa glanced at the Mygo members, then turned to give Hachiman Kairin a look that seemed to go on, before stepping across the boundary line between Takamatsu Akari and Toyokawa Shoko.

"..."

Hachiman Kairin did not move immediately, but turned around to look at where Shiina Tatsuki was. Unfortunately, the black-haired girl was not looking at her, but instead cast her gaze at the blue-haired girl in the distance.

"Hai Ling, come over here? Xiao Xiang is also a member of Ave Mujica whom I invited, right?"

Seeing that Hachiman Kairin was taking a long time to arrive, a hint of anxiety flashed across Mikasa's face.

Although speaking like this clearly implied that she was trying to get Hai Ling to take sides, the situation was urgent, and she couldn't think about that anymore.

"..."

After hesitating for a moment, thinking about something, Hachiman Kairin finally turned around and moved closer to Xiangzi and the other two.

At this point, the game became four against four.

"So Tomori, why are you all standing here? Time and time again, didn't I already tell Chihaya-san to stop bothering me?!"

After saying that, Toyokawa Shoko shifted her gaze to Nagasaki Motoyo and noticed that Motoyo had a somber face. She sighed inwardly and did not mention the Asukayama Park incident.

"Huh? You want me to bother you? Xiangzi, don't get too cocky. Tomori has been looking for Mu the whole time. What does it have to do with you?"

Sensing Shoko's obvious hostility towards Takamatsu, Shiina Tatsuki's brows furrowed coldly. He took a few steps and stood firmly beside the gray-haired girl, his chilling aura directly confronting Toyokawa Shoko.

"Xiangzi, we can't let Xiaomu go on like this anymore. If this continues, Xiaomu will break down... I want to help Xiaomu!"

Although seeing Xiangzi's indifferent expression reminded her of that cold afternoon when the group disbanded, and her heart clenched... for the sake of everyone's happy future, Gao Songdeng did not intend to... run away!

"Help? All I saw was you hurting Mu Zimi!"

Seeing is believing. Toyokawa Shoko couldn't fathom how the way Takamatsu Akari had just pulled Wakaba Mutsugu could be the help she was talking about. It had no credibility whatsoever!

"No, that's not how it is, Chuhua, why don't you talk to Xiangzi about it?"

Gao Songdeng turned his head and looked at Chu Hua, who was closest to Xiangzi. In this situation, only Chu Hua could talk to Xiangzi!

That future, the terrifying future of Xiao Mu becoming Metis!

"Eh?"

Startled by Takamatsu's sudden mention, Mitsumi Hatsuka, who had intended to observe the situation, was taken aback and hesitated for a moment before speaking up. However, seeing Takamatsu's pitiful expression, as if she was about to cry, she hesitated for a moment before explaining.

"Hmm, Xiao Xiang, calm down. Xiao Deng didn't mean any harm..."

"You're going to side with them too, Chu Hua?"

"what?!"

The blue-haired girl's low, suppressed voice surrounded Sankaku Hatsuka: Why did Xiaoxiang say that?

The boomerang came so fast! Just now, she had subtly made Hailing choose a side, and now it was her turn!

"No, don't make things difficult for Chuhua, Xiangzi. I came here with Chuhua on my own initiative. If you have to blame someone, blame me."

Before Misaka Hatsuka could respond, Takamatsu Akari gritted her teeth, suppressed her aggrieved and sad expression, and patted her chest as she spoke to the girl in front of her.

Disobeying Xiangzi, arguing with Xiangzi... This was something Gao Songdeng could never have imagined before, but now she had an irrefutable reason. It wasn't just for herself, but for Xiaomu, for Mujica...

Even for the sake of auspiciousness

son!

"I don't know what Xiao Mu went through from now until the disbandment of Ave Mujica Hotel, but I know that this period is the last chance to save Xiao Mu!"

"Save Xiao Mu? Are you kidding me..."

A golden glint flashed in her eyes, and Toyokawa Shoko's first reaction to these words was...

Bored.

Help, rescue—when did these heavy words become so easily uttered?

Does Tomori want to carry the burden of Mutsuko's life? Does Akari, just an ordinary high school girl, understand the responsibility and meaning of the word "save"?

Moreover, before Xiaodeng, she had made a promise to take on Mu Zimi's life, how could she let Xiaodeng take it away?

Despite not having been in contact with Takamatsu for several months, Toyokawa Shoko had to admit that Takamatsu Takamatsu had grown a lot since the Crychic era.

At least in the past, Gao Songdeng would never have been able to debate with her like this.

"Thank you for your kindness, Tomori, but I will keep an eye on Mutsu's condition!"

What's said is said, and only she can bear the weight of Mu Zimi's life. She absolutely cannot let Xiao Deng take Mu Zimi away!

"Chuhua!"

"Hey, Xiao Xiang?"

"I want to form ave mujica."

"Uh, eh???"

Triangle Chuhua responded, then widened her purple eyes.

At this crucial moment, Xiao Xiang agreed to form Mujica?

"Anyway, thank you for your concern for Xiaomu, but... we have nothing to do with you anymore."

To let go of the past, you must bury it.

For whatever reason, she should never have any further contact with Gao Songdeng and the others.

Mukomi and Hatsuka, these are the only friends she can still contact, and she can't let Tomori take them away from her.

“We are all bound by fate. Now that we’ve formed Ave Mujica, I will be responsible for every member. So you can let go of Muji’s situation!”

Upon hearing Toyokawa Shoko's words, Shiina Tatsuki could no longer maintain her composure. A surge of anger welled up inside her, and she walked straight up to Toyokawa Shoko, intending to grab her by the collar.

"Shiina-kun, don't be impulsive!"

Mikasa Hatsuka reacted quickly, immediately interrupting Shiina Tatsuki's actions. She watched the black-haired girl with worry and vigilance, hoping she wouldn't do anything reckless.

"A community of shared future? Don't you find it ridiculous to say that?"

Shiina Tatsuki wanted to think, but there was no angle that could provide a reasonable reason for Shoko to say this at this moment. What right did Shoko, who had ruined Crychic, have to say this?

“Crychic disbanded, so be it. I have nothing to say about it now. If you want to form a new band, that's your business. But saying things like that in front of us, did you even consider Tomori's feelings?!”

Leaving aside Su Shi, whose expression was unclear in the distance, let's talk about Tomori, who is standing in front of Xiangzi right now. Everyone knows what Crychic means to Tomori!

"Consider? Consider what? You guys have already moved on, and even formed a new band. So why can't I form a new band too?!"

Toyokawa Shoko spoke with righteous indignation, even with a hint of anger.

At this moment, in a subconscious state that Toyokawa Shoko herself was unaware of, she actually felt a bit of jealousy towards Takamatsu Akari and the others.

"...Incomprehensible." Seeing Xiangzi's appearance, Shiina Ritsuki was greatly disappointed and lost the desire to continue arguing.

"..."

Toyokawa Shoko remained silent and did not continue speaking. Immediately, the eight people present fell into an eerie silence.

"Well, then, shall we stop here for today? Toyokawa-kun."

Unable to bear the terrible atmosphere any longer, Chihaya Aine said with a forced smile, while taking the right hand of the dejected Takamatsu Akari and gently leading the little penguin aside.

Toyokawa Shoko's gaze followed Chihaya Aine the entire time, but she only showed displeasure and didn't say anything.

"Ah, Chihaya is right. Everyone, calm down. Sho, shall we leave?"

Seeing that Aine had taken the initiative to lighten the mood, Mikasa Hatsuka opportunely stepped in and spoke to Toyokawa Shoko.

"Wakaba-kun, Hachiman-kun, shall we discuss the matter of forming Ave Mujica?"

She was silent for a moment, her gaze lingering on the four members of Mygo for a brief instant, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.
