"Actually, Riki doesn't need to worry too much!"

"Because in Tomorin's eyes, Riki is also a very outstanding person~"

Smilingly responding to Riki's concerns, Chihaya Aine turned to look at Takamatsu Akari's face, who was once again lost in thought.

Despite Rikki's repeated claims that he's just an ordinary person, his concern for Tomorin and his dedication to the band are evident...

That performance and that sentiment absolutely do not lie.

"I, I'm not buying your act."

She turned her face away haughtily, but Shiina Tatsuki's lips couldn't help but curl up.

The tram stopped and started, and around seven o'clock, Gao Songdeng and his friends finally arrived at the entrance of Fanxing.

"Excuse me~"

Upon knocking on the livehouse door, four young girls and two very beautiful adults were already prepared on stage.

"Finally, it's here, tomorin!"

Kita Ikuyo, who had been waiting idly on stage, suddenly had her eyes light up and ran off the stage in an instant.

"So this is the friend that Kita was talking about? Hmm, although it's an hour and a half later than the scheduled review time, it's still acceptable."

Ichiji Hoshika checked the time on her phone and spoke.

"Senior Xingge, please deduct the reduced revenue from the livehouse due to the time constraints from my salary. I'm really sorry!"

Kita Ikuyo looked apologetic and clasped her hands together.

"No need for that. It's only a little past seven now, and there's still some time before the live show starts."

With a simple wave, Yi Zhidi Xingge remained calm.

"Oh, isn't this Chihaya Aine No. 3?"

As the images of An and Subaru flashed through his mind, and then he looked at Kita Ikuyo in front of him, Shiina Tatsuki suddenly felt a strong sense of déjà vu.

"So Tomori prefers girls like this?"

Silently watching Takamatsu Toki's starry face, Shiina Tatsuki found the answer in his heart.

"Guitar, loneliness, and the blue planet?"

Looking at what Tomori posted

As soon as the lyrics arrived, Shiina Tatsuki began to read them one by one, while at the same time, the performers on stage began to play.

The sudden evening rain made me so fed up with not having an umbrella.

What does the mood of the sky have to do with me?

What clothes should I wear when the seasons change...?

In the exhibition hall, the sounds of their instruments and Kita's vocals echoed continuously. Looking up at the radiant girl on the stage, Chihaya Aine felt encouraged.

"Everyone is amazing, especially Kita. I never imagined she was both the lead vocalist and the guitarist..."

Thinking about Ryuna-chan's behavior and her own actions, Chihaya Aine felt a pang of guilt.

"As expected, all my previous efforts were just dabbling. I need to train hard and not let Tomorin down."

To be honest, the moment she heard that Lena was going to join the band at the coffee shop, she wanted to run away. After all, her skill level was worlds apart from Lena's!

But Tomorin stopped her.

"One day in the band, I'll make Tomorin take notice of me!"

Turning her head to look at the gray-haired girl beside her who was looking up, Chihaya Aine made up her mind.

"Phew, that was a close call! I really owe it to Pochi-chan! I thought the review process was almost not going to pass."

Beyond the starry sky, a red-haired girl stood before the crowd, a look of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing feelings, reflection, and a sense of wonder).

"Kita is not bad either. You can't reach this level without practicing every day."

Listening to Kita Ikuyo's words, Ichiji Nijika smiled broadly.

This band's performance at the audition was a huge success! It's all thanks to Pochi-chan's awakening and Kita's hard work.

"I think I've worked very hard."

At that moment, Yamada Ryo added with a serious expression.

"Yes, yes, Liang also deserves credit."

Smilingly agreeing to Yamada Ryo's request, Ichiji Nijika then turned to look at the three guests who had come from afar.

Aden Takamatsu, Aine Chihaya, Riki Shiina.

"Hongxia's performance today was as good as ever."

With a blush on her face, Gao Songdeng praised softly.

"Today? Did Xiaodeng see my performance before?"

With a slight look of surprise, Ichiji Nijika couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

If a girl like Ru Deng appeared in the stars, it was impossible for her not to remember her.

"Perhaps you've forgotten, Hongxia?"

Seeing Nijika's puzzled expression, Chihaya Aine laughed and walked forward.

"That's true. Sometimes there are too many people on the planet, and I probably do forget."

No longer wanting to get involved in this matter, Ichiji Nijika took out her phone.

"Since Akari, Aine, and Riki are all Kita's friends, why don't we go celebrate together? Since we're all in bands, we're bound to have a lot in common!"

"Ryo plays bass, I'm the drummer, and Boqi-chan is... wait, what happened to Riki?"

After smilingly introducing the roles of the band members, Ichiji Nijika turned around and saw Shiina Tatsuki looking uncomfortable.

"It's nothing, I... I just felt a creepy gaze on us? I felt a little uncomfortable."

Looking around at the street, Shiina Tatsuki didn't notice anything unusual.

"Me too, I have a little too."

Feeling uneasy, Takamatsu Akari leaned closer to Aine's shoulder, and she also felt a bad feeling in her heart.

"Hey, is there? Is there?"

Listening to tomorin and rikki's frightening words, Chihaya Aine also looked around like the two of them, but unfortunately she didn't sense anything at all.

"Could it be some kind of cat or dog?"

Kita Ikuyo walked toward the bushes beside her with a puzzled look, but before she got close, a flaxen-colored figure suddenly darted out of the corner of her eye and disappeared in an instant.

"It looks like a brown kitten ran away? Shiina-san must be talking about this, right?"

Looking puzzled at the street corner to her left, Kita Ikuyo bent down slightly and picked up a tuft of hair.

It's probably fur left behind by the coffee-colored kitten when it ran away in such a hurry.

"Hmm...probably so."

Shiina Tatsuki nodded slightly, as if deep in thought.

"Is Riki under too much pressure composing lately? Is that why she's become a bit paranoid? This is Tokyo, you know, the safety here should be pretty good, right?"

"Besides, there are so many of us. Even if there are criminals, they shouldn't just randomly come up to us, right?"

With her hands naturally resting on Shiina Tatsuki's shoulders, Chihaya Aine whispered in her ear.

"Um, don't come up here so easily."

"I think I'm overthinking it."

Shiina Tatsuki coughed twice, then blushed and pulled away from Aine's hand.

"Since things have come to this, shall we go eat? Yukita, why don't you tell us about the local cuisine in Shimokitazawa?"

After a long and tiring journey from RING, Chihaya Aine patted her empty stomach and all she wanted to do was eat!

Li Xi's words were ultimately just a minor incident, and everyone immediately resumed chatting and laughing as they walked towards their desired restaurant.

Just as Aine and her group were about to disappear at the end of the road, a beautiful girl with a cold and aloof expression quietly peeked out from the street corner.

Nagasaki Motoyo gently bit her teeth with her fingers, her face cold, her lake-blue eyes filled with incomprehension and anger.

Despite being so cautious along the way, she was almost discovered by Shiina Tatsuki.

"I was disguised very well, so why could they sense it?"

Since Li Xi started opposing her, she has found that she has been completely defeated in her confrontations with Li Xi and has never won!

"So that's the reason? Lamp, Lixi?"

Watching the girls' laughing figures disappear into the distance, Nagasaki Motoyo felt a strange bitterness welling up inside her.

"Since they've already found new band members, why invite me to join? And what about the stray cats?"

She pursed her lips, a sense of powerlessness rising within her.

Although she didn't personally enter the starry sky and didn't know what happened inside...

But what about those newly emerging girl bands?

One bass bag, two guitar bags, and the last one didn't bring a bag; it might be the drummer, or...

Keyboard warrior!

Considering that Riki was already a drummer, Nagasaki Motoyo felt that she was increasingly finding out the truth of the matter.

"Why can Aine still laugh? Doesn't she know she's the one most likely to be eliminated?"

Nagasaki Motoyo stood calmly in place, but her mind was already in the midst of a frantic brainstorming session.

"Yeah, she was just doing it casually... playing in a band and stuff was just a way for her to show off."

In the quiet of the night, Nagasaki Motoyo would lie in bed and think about what the band meant to her now. After reviving Crychic, she would definitely apologize to everyone properly...

But now, what have Deng and Lixi done?

The band's training ended, and then they went to Shimokitazawa to get close to other band girls.

"Looks like I was too naive."

I thought she was the prey waiting to be caught.

She was a wolf, but in the end, Deng and Lixi became hunters in the blink of an eye. All her hard work was nothing compared to her former teammates.

Overwhelmed with thoughts, Nagasaki Motoyo desperately wanted to catch up, but at this point, none of that mattered anymore.

"Since Xiaodeng, Lixi, you're treating us like a substitute, then this fake band..."

"I'll end this!"

"Crychic must be revived!"

The girl's face darkened, but then she quickly changed her expression, revealing a bright and cheerful smile.

……

"Ache!"

For no apparent reason, Chihaya Aine suddenly shivered.

"Aiyin, Wh-what's wrong? Did you catch a cold?"

Inside the booked restaurant, seeing Aine's actions, Takamatsu Akari asked with concern.

"No, no, I don't know why I suddenly sneezed."

Scratching her head sheepishly, Chihaya Aine looked thoughtful.

It must be that the cat hair from the coffee-shaped coffee cat that Kita-chan picked up just now got onto her nose, right?
