She sighed softly, then turned and nodded to Wakaba Mutsumi and Hachiman Kairin, signaling them to go first.
"..."
Hachiman Kairin glanced back at Shiina Tatsuki, but Shoko turned away directly in front of her.
Xiangzi turned around without the slightest bit of lingering affection.
She exchanged a glance with Ruoye Mutsu, sighed, and then silently followed Xiangzi's steps. The three of them walked towards the other end of the road, their footsteps echoing clearly in the empty school gate, with Sankaku Hatsuka following at the very back.
Just as they were about to disappear around the corner, Mikasa suddenly stopped and glanced back at the four members of Mygo. Her gaze lingered on Akari Takamatsu, her lips pursed, unsure of what to say.
"Feel sorry."
"Sankaku Chuka said softly, almost inaudibly, then she turned and left, her back view appearing exceptionally resolute."
As dusk fell and the sun set, a cold wind swept through the streets, bringing a slight chill to everyone.
The four members of mygo stood rooted to the spot, the atmosphere still heavy. Shiina Tatsuki clenched her fists, her eyes filled with anger and resentment, but she said nothing more, only taking a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
Nagasaki Motoyo stood silently to the side, her expression still blank, as if none of this concerned her. But her gaze would occasionally drift in the direction Toyokawa Shoko had left, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.
Chihaya Aine was still holding Takamatsu Akari's hand, feeling the coldness of her palm, and her heart ached. She gently squeezed the girl's hand, trying to convey some warmth and comfort.
"Tomorin, it's okay, I'm here," she said softly, her tone tinged with helplessness and heartache.
I only came to find Wakaba and wanted to help her, so why did it turn out like this?
Don't be discouraged by Toyokawa's words!
At this moment, Gao Songdeng lowered her head, her expression hidden by her bangs, making it impossible to discern her emotions. However, her slightly trembling shoulders betrayed the turmoil within her.
Chihaya Aine wanted to continue offering comfort, but Takamatsu Akari seemed to have adjusted her emotions and raised her head again, preventing her from speaking.
"I...I'm fine, Aine, don't worry about me."
The gray-haired girl exhaled a long breath, trying to show that she had adjusted her posture.
"Tomori, really?"
“Really, Lixi, and Su Shi will probably be even more upset than me.”
Takamatsu Akari turned around and looked at Nagasaki Motoyo, who hadn't spoken since the beginning, with a look of heartache on her face.
The immense sorrow that even she could feel... Su Shi couldn't possibly be unaware of it.
"I'm sorry, Kodama," Nagasaki Motoyo suddenly turned her face away and apologized.
Why should Su Shi apologize?
"It's my fault... that Xiaodeng is in this situation."
Although she never said she wanted to reconcile with Xiao Mu, the observant Xiao Deng discovered her true desire and worked tirelessly for her. But what was the result?
When Xiangzi arrived, she was filled with fear and couldn't utter a single word, leaving Xiaodeng to bear all the pressure.
She felt she had to apologize to Xiaodeng.
"I...I'm sorry everyone."
Unable to bear the inner torment any longer, Nagasaki Motoyo turned around and fled in panic.
Volume 2 continues! Chapter 153: Takamatsu Todora, the womanizer, so what?
The fleeing bassist kept moving further away from everyone, and Su Shi's back looked very lonely in Takamatsu's eyes.
"soyorin!"
Chihaya Aine blinked worriedly, her gaze following the direction the girl had left.
This is the first time Soyorin has shown such a vulnerable side in front of everyone, aside from the Shi Chao Ban stage!
"Aine... I've come to bring Su Shi back. You and Li Xi wait... We're coming back!"
Gao Songdeng hesitated for only a moment before her mind immediately compelled her to stop and rush towards the end of Su Shi's escape route.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry again.
Gao Songdeng didn't understand why everyone seemed to always be saying "I'm sorry."
The street scene around her changed rapidly, and the cold wind that came her way grew colder as the speed increased, but no matter how cold it was... it could not extinguish the burning passion in her heart.
"So what if we run away? Su Shi... Everyone runs away from this, there's no need to apologize."
Su Shi may feel guilty because she hurt others, but wasn't Su Shi herself also hurt?
Making yourself suffer is really going too far!
"Su Shi, no, don't run away!"
Nagasaki Sosei remained silent and continued running, but somehow she turned her head back midway and saw Takamatsu Akari with a serious expression. It was worth noting that the distance between the two was rapidly closing!
"Hey, Little Light, when did your stamina become so good?!"
If it were Aine chasing her, that would be one thing, and she would be caught up with, but why does Kodama seem to be faster than her?
In my memory, Xiao Deng was always depicted as someone exhausted, but why does he look completely different today?
"Probably because I often... chase people!!" Takamatsu Akari shouted in response.
Her footsteps were swift and powerful, and before long she caught up with the exhausted Nagasaki Motoyo.
"Huff...huff...I surrender, Little Lamp, don't chase me anymore, I'm not running anymore."
The two hadn't run very far, but even so, they were still about seven or eight meters away from the entrance of Tsukinomori School. At this point, they reached the intersection of a street and alleyway.
"Su Shi, you haven't been exercising much, that's why I was able to catch up with you."
"It's because Xiaodeng can run too fast, okay? I'm not trying to win a long-distance running championship, why would I need to train..."
The two stood there resting, panting heavily, but Takamatsu was clearly in better condition, the flush on his face quickly fading as he rested.
"Su Shi, so... why did you run away?"
"And why should I say sorry?"
"Because I really should say it."
The girl with flaxen hair gripped her shoulder bag tightly with her left hand, her right hand awkwardly holding her elbow, her eyes darting down without looking at the serious-looking Takamatsu Akari.
"So, does Su Shi think that I... have caused trouble for everyone?"
Seeing Su Shi's evasive gaze, Gao Songdeng was not angry, but instead walked to where Su Shi was in sight.
When everyone encountered Xiangzi again, their reactions were all different. Aine was confused, Lixi was angry, she tried to have a conversation with Xiangzi, and Su Shi was... the saddest one.
It's understandable that she wanted to escape because of her sadness; that's how she had been in the past, so she would never, ever blame Su Shi.
Nagasaki Motoyo didn't immediately answer Takamatsu Akari's reply. Instead, she twisted her body and shifted her gaze elsewhere again. However, Takamatsu Akari continued to move her position with a determined look, even squatting on the ground like a crawling penguin, so that her small face could be seen in front of Motoyo.
"Su Shi...why aren't you looking at me?"
"Why should I look at the little lamp? Can't I just talk without making eye contact?"
"Then why can't we communicate by looking at each other's eyes?"
"Because I don't want to look at the little lamp right now."
"But I want to see Su Shi."
Hearing Takamatsu Akari's very straightforward words, Nagasaki Motoyo was slightly startled, but she still turned her face away, her cheeks slightly flushed: "It's not a big deal if I don't watch it for a while, is it?"
"Even for this short while... I want to look at Su Shi and have a proper conversation."
The eyes are the windows to the soul. Only by looking closely at the other person can we convey our thoughts and feelings. Besides, Su Shi's eyes are naturally very beautiful!
She could still feel a focused gaze fixed on her. Nagasaki Motoyo knew that if she didn't respond to Takamatsu Akari's request, Takamatsu Akari would probably continue to be stubborn.
"Sigh." She sighed, finally making up her mind, and turned her beautiful, clear eyes to Gao Songdeng. In just a moment, their eyes met.
Xiaodeng has a pair of bright amber-orange eyes. Under her gaze, the color is like the afterglow of the setting sun shining on clear amber, appearing rich. Anyone who looks into Xiaodeng's eyes cannot help but feel power and warmth.
"So, what does Xiaodeng want me to say?"
"I have no hope, I just want to hear Su Shi's true feelings."
"Telling the truth, it's not that easy."
"It's precisely because it's not easy... that's why we need Su Shi to say it, because Su Shi has always been, always been very cunning."
"When I went to Su Shi's house before, and when we kissed, I had to keep taking the initiative before she would tell me the truth. And even when she did tell me the truth, it was only a tiny bit of the truth."
Gao Songdeng didn't think there was anything wrong with taking the initiative; in fact, she was happy to do so now. But Su Shi was always like this; she was really, really too cunning!
"Yes, Little Lamp, I am a fox who lies all the time, dares not reveal the truth, always uses a mask to disguise myself, and likes to deceive people."
"There's a huge contrast between you and the frank Aine and the straightforward Riki, so catching up with you was a mistake."
Nagasaki Motoyo's expression was calm, but when she talked about her 'flaws', she spoke so quickly, as if she had memorized them in advance, that Takamatsu Akari's expression was slightly taken aback.
“I didn’t say that about Su Shi.”
"I think I am, that's why I want to tell everyone, right..."
"!"
Just as Nagasaki Motoyo was about to say "I'm sorry," Takamatsu Akari's right hand moved with lightning speed, sealing her mouth shut, leaving her only able to make strange muffled noises.
"Waaah—Ugh, Little Lamp, what are you doing?!"
Nagasaki Motoyo blushed slightly at Takamatsu Akari's inexplicable behavior and quickly took two steps back.
"Because Su Shi is going to say sorry, and I... don't want to hear those three words."
"If Su Shi doesn't want to talk about it, it's okay to avoid it."
"Because even if Su Shi keeps running away, I will not give up, I will..."
He kept taking the initiative until Su Shi was willing.
If Su Shi doesn't want to say it, then she will say it.
"Although I never thought Su Shi had any of the shortcomings mentioned above, even if Su Shi thought that way, I would not hate Su Shi. I never felt that Su Shi had wronged me in any way."
"But I was once the culprit who wanted to break up the band, Little Lamp."
"That band... didn't disband, Su Shi?"
“I even hid behind the scenes and had Xiaodeng help me reconcile with Xiaomu.”
"I... am willing."
"..."
A strange question-and-answer atmosphere was created between the two of them. Nagasaki Motoyo recounted her crimes, but Takamatsu Akari simply answered each one without any emotional fluctuation.
This made Nagasaki Motoyo angry. She really couldn't understand what kind of thought process Takamatsu Akari had!
"Xiaodeng, I've said so much, why aren't you angry? You clearly..."
"You should be angry with me!"
The girl's tone was initially harsh, but quickly softened, and her beautiful lake-blue eyes lost their luster, appearing very sad.
Little Lamp, why aren't you angry? Why are you still so gentle and accepting of her completely?
This strange feeling was something Nagasaki Motoyo hated the most.
Those who do wrong should be punished and given due judgment, but that judgment has been delayed.
It was Xiaodeng who stopped the guillotine from beheading her.
"Angry? Why would Su Shi think I'm angry? I've never been angry with Su Shi before!"
Gao Songdeng was momentarily bewildered, not understanding what Su Shi was saying.
"Because I did something wrong!"
Now, facing the still somewhat clumsy and adorable gray-haired girl, Nagasaki Motoyo clenched her fists, finally unable to maintain her previous facade.
"You don't know how to read the room, and you're always so stubborn. That's not right of you, Xiaodeng. If it were Aine, she probably would have noticed by now, right?"
"I've hurt everyone time and time again, shouldn't I be punished? Besides, I always deal with problems passively and don't communicate with you properly. Like you said, I'm cunning, aren't I, Xiaodeng?!"
