"Here's the beef rice you ordered!"

The young girl stammered out her polite opening remarks to the guests.

After hearing this, Igor Muneo frowned.

“What’s wrong with working? Wait, what’s wrong with Nina’s tone and demeanor…”

"It's over!"

An and Subaru covered their heads with their hands.

Not to mention that Nina in her original form is somewhat socially awkward around strangers, this quiet form of Nina is even more introverted than the original!

Working a job?! This is going to kill Nina! Why now of all times?!

"Waaah, um, I'm sorry..." Takamatsu Akari seemed to be on the verge of tears.

Does she think she's really going to mess this up?

"What did you do wrong that you need to apologize for?"

At this moment, Igor Muneo's expression became even more serious, even exuding the air of an educator in a superior position.

"Say it, you stutter? Dad?"

What you say and what you actually do are two different things... Takamatsu felt that he had done his best.

I need to work... When I get back, I must ask Lixi for advice on how to do it!

"You did nothing wrong, so why apologize? You weren't like this before. Think about how you used to argue and talk back to me."

"Debating, talking back..."

A thought flashed through Takamatsu's mind; she knew that what Igor Muneo was referring to was probably the action that Nina would normally take.

Yes, think about what Nina did, I am Nina now!

Gao Songdeng's brain was working quickly, and as she thought about it, she suddenly remembered the movements that Nina had taught her.

"Since Nina's father said that Nina did nothing wrong, then the corresponding action that is not wrong is..."

Thus, the complete picture of Takamatsu Akari's inner world was revealed.

"So what if I stutter? As long as the food is delivered, that's all that matters! I... I didn't do anything wrong!"

Takamatsu Akari put down her plate and gave Igor Muneo a pinky finger!

“Eh——”

Kawara Momoka exclaimed in surprise, then immediately jumped up from her seat and grabbed Takamatsu Akari's hands.

Igor Muneo looked puzzled, while simultaneously raising his little fingers with both hands and observing his hands, trying to understand the meaning of the gesture.

"What's wrong, Kawaragi-kun? That gesture..."

"It's okay, it's okay, hahaha, there's nothing there!"

"This gesture means 'hello' at Yoshinoya!"

"Yes, yes, mmk is right, this is Yoshinoya's special 'hello' gesture!"

MMK is the first interpretation, and An and Subaru are the second-tier interpretations!

"Oh, is that so? Our Jingqin family rarely eats out. I didn't expect Yoshinoya to be such a trendy brand."

Jingqin's mother covered her face and exclaimed in surprise.

Not trendy at all... Momoka Kawahara thought to herself.

"In short, you still don't meet the requirements, Nina."

Izuru took out the beef rice from the plate one by one, then quickly shook his head at Takamatsu Akari, indicating his dissatisfaction.

"So you need to practice a lot from now on. You know, from now on, you'll be facing other people's customers, not me. You need to work hard!"

"Dad... I understand! I will definitely be a good waiter!"

Although Gao Songdeng was still somewhat confused, it seemed that Nina's father's words implied that Nina was allowed to stay?

"Ah, we'll help Nina get familiar with Yoshinoya's operating procedures as soon as possible, so please don't worry!"

Rupa smiled, while standing discreetly behind Takamatsu Akari.

"This girl has... a lot of flaws, no, but I'll watch her correct them!"

The petite girl also stood beside Takamatsu Akari, her face flushed with a faint blush.

Volume 2 continues!: Chapter 158 Roasted Lamb?

After a hearty meal, outside the Yoshinoya house, Takamatsu Akari watched Iseri Muneo and Iseri's mother leave until they disappeared at the end of the road.

"Phew, finally perfectly resolved, but Nina, you rascal..."

Before Takamatsu Akari could even feel happy, An and Subaru put their arms around her shoulder and pulled her into the arms of the black-haired girl.

"Tell me, why?"

"Bring your aunt and uncle to us! If I weren't so resourceful, Nina, do you know you'd really have to go home?"

An and Subaru looked at Takamatsu with a fierce glint in their eyes, a hint of intimidation in them.

"Yes, if we fail, there's really nothing we can do to stop you from going home, you know? Can't you think things through properly?"

Ebizuka Tomokazu said coquettishly, standing next to Takamatsu Akari, looking at her with an annoyed expression.

We finally found a lead singer who was barely satisfactory and pleasing to the eye. Before they even get to perform at the Budokan, the lead singer can't just run away!

"I...I didn't mean to drag everyone down...it's just that Nina's dad offered to come, and most importantly, I felt that with everyone's help..."

"I'm sure I can stay."

Takamatsu knew she hadn't experienced the same long-term companionship with everyone, both thorny and gentle, as Nina had, but since it was Nina's band...

She believes that the bond between the thornless and the thornless is no less than that between the members of Mygo. If Nina from the dream were here, she would definitely believe in her teammates too!

"Hey, don't apologize. I didn't really mean to blame you. Seriously, can you not apologize so formally? Ash is getting embarrassed."

Everyone knows Ash's personality; he's stubborn and won't listen to reason. But right now, 'Izumi no Kane' is in a very soft and glutinous state, leaving Momoka Kawahara unsure of what to say.

"I, I'm not embarrassed at all!" The short-haired girl turned her face away.

The crowd chattered amongst themselves, filling the area in front of the Yoshinoya store with a cheerful and delightful atmosphere.

Just when Takamatsu thought the incident was over and she was about to fall back into that dark world, that feeling didn't come. She waited in place for five or six minutes, and she was still inside Nina's body!

"What, what's going on?"

Takamatsu's eyes widened, and a bead of cold sweat slowly dripped from his forehead. The dream had taken another turn!

"What's wrong, Nina?" Rupa noticed the dark red-haired girl's unusual behavior immediately.

"No, it's okay, thank you for your concern, Rupa-san. I... I might need to rest for a while."

Takamatsu Akari shook his head, then gave a forced smile.

"..."

Kawara Momoka also noticed 'Isai Nijina's' strange expression, but unlike Rupa, she chose not to speak up.

"Ahem, now that the lead singer rescue plan has been a complete success, shouldn't we start preparing for the live performance at the Grassland Music Festival?"

The Grassland Music Festival is a major project that Wuciyouci is currently busy preparing for, after all, it's a battlefield where they will directly compete with Diamond Star!

They can't lose to Diamond Star, and they even want to steal all of their viewers.

Making bold statements to her former teammates only to have them fizzle out and fall short in the end would be unacceptable. Momoka Kawahara thought to herself.

"I will prepare well... everyone."

Takamatsu searched her memory and nodded cautiously in response.

Nina, from the thornless and thornless group, is in charge of vocals and lyrics... exactly the same role she had at Mygo.

After saying goodbye to everyone, Gao Songdeng, having become more familiar with the place after a few visits, no longer needed to remember Nina's memories to return to Nina's home.

"What should we do? It seems like we can't go back?"

Back in her bedroom, Gao Songdeng was somewhat agitated; the current situation was a little tricky for her.

If there has to be any change, it's that after the last dream ended, she had a debate with Mr. Future. Could it be that the inability to end the dream is Mr. Future's punishment for her?

“Nina’s future has improved, and I have helped Nina as you wished, so why… won’t you let me leave, Mr. Future?”

Takamatsu looked at the ceiling, muttering to herself, as if there really was an object floating in the air in front of her.

Even if you trap me in a dream and try to make me compromise, I will not... let you control me.

Even if he were to return to the wooden door in the pitch-black world, Takamatsu would still not turn it on.

Even if there is a truth behind the wooden door, a secret about the dream world, Takamatsu Tamamo prefers to find it herself!

She called out several times, but unfortunately there was no significant change or fluctuation in the air. Fortunately, she was the only one in the apartment at the moment; otherwise, if there were any other people, Gao Songdeng would look no different from a patient!

"The Grassland Music Festival, I remember Kita talking about it a long, long time ago, when we first got together."

Recalling the scene of the first meeting between the three of them, Gao Songdeng couldn't help but smile. To this day, they have come a long way together and continue to move forward.

Blank Space and Catharsis

This is a song that Nina will create and perform at the music festival.

If she can't return to reality now, then she can only take over Nina's responsibility and write lyrics for the Thornless Band.

"Nina writes lyrics with so many words, and sings them so fast... Can I do that?"

Gao Songdeng opened the memo app, which was filled with lyrics written by Nina all by herself.

"All are nameless".

"A Glimpse into the World, the Voice of Decay"

"The Bustling City"??

"All Nameless" and "A Corner of Vision" are both songs that have been created and successfully performed live. As for "Bustling Around, Our City," the lyrics are almost finished, about three-quarters of them are already written!

"The remaining heartbeats covered the entire night."

"It enveloped us before it was completely shattered..."

His eyes lingered on the lyrics, and after reading them all, Takamatsu Akira silently closed his eyes.

“Nina’s lyrics for one song are almost twice as many as the lyrics I wrote.”

Although she has the ability to write lyrics quickly, that ability is limited to "mygo".

Only Nina herself could write the lyrics for MMK's music that truly complement the song "No Thorns, Yet Thorns".

Furthermore, her singing style is completely different from Nina's. If she were to sing a song by the Thornless Band, she probably wouldn't be able to breathe at all!

"No, no, we must find a way to leave this dream."

For her own sake, and for Nina's sake and the band's sake, she cannot stay here any longer.

But now that she's settled back into a peaceful routine, where can she find a breakthrough and change?

Gao Songdeng pondered deeply, and then a very bold idea came to her mind!

Volume 2 Continues with Mygo!: Chapter 159 The Timeline Where Mygo Doesn't Exist

The dream is another timeline, a timeline in which the three of them never met. So, how is Takamatsu Akari doing in this timeline?

In Kita's dream last time, she told the band members that she could be friends with Takamatsu Akari from that other world...

So what is Nina's situation in the dream world?!

Takamatsu's heart began to pound, and she immediately took out her phone and entered her phone number.

Regardless of the timeline, the phone number should be the same, right? Takamatsu Akari stared expectantly at the screen, already quite impatient.

I stayed.
