"The part about the experience and reflections on the activity is clearly fictional... yet it gives people the feeling of a real record."

"Although it's fictional, you can tell that Chizuru put a lot of effort into writing it."

"So...I've always been very grateful to Chika!"

If it were someone with a lot of scheming, China might have thought it was sarcastic or flattering.

But Deng was too pure; she was genuinely just expressing her love for the article and revealing her inner thoughts without reservation, which China could see.

However, what makes the article's structure clear and its content interesting is not my own effort, but the countless high-quality papers collected in the AI language model.

This dedication, though not for myself, earned me the recognition of the lamp.

Although I felt somewhat ashamed...

However, when emotions are woven from lies, the one who suffers is the one who suffers, while others are happy...

Then let's continue to keep it a secret.

It's definitely not because I enjoy this kind of unearned praise, it's definitely not...

Qiannai glanced at her phone; Wayhome was still receiving rave reviews, and the streaming revenue was pouring into her pocket.

...Okay, that's true.

But if you can transcribe the song exactly as it was, then you have to rely on your skill to copy it!

However, the reason why Akari didn't see the "AI feel" in this article is because Chinatsu's own aura is too strong—she is both the composer Akari likes and resembles Akari's friend.

Or perhaps the AI-generated text just happened to resonate with her?

Wouldn't that make someone a cyborg...?

Anyway, let’s eat first.

……

Buckwheat noodles, strawberry banana crepes, hamburgers, French fries...

The food at Haneoka Cafeteria is plentiful, and there are also many fried foods.

But as long as it tastes good, that's all that matters.

The lantern was behind Chinatsu, and after Chinatsu ordered and picked up her plate, the lantern followed Chinatsu.

However, after China chose a seat, Tamamo stood three meters away from her.

Chika sat down opposite Shoko.

The food Xiangzi had just picked up fell back onto her plate. She glanced at the light out of the corner of her eye, then stared at Qian Nai.

"Is he having another manic episode?" Xiangzi thought to himself.

I wanted to say something, but I couldn't find the words.

Wanting to change seats would seem too pretentious.

It's impossible to simply get up and not eat, which would be a waste of food; the only option is to eat faster.

"Sis, eat slowly, don't choke," Qian Nai said warmly.

"sister……"

The lamp standing to the side was a little confused. Before, she thought that because Toyokawa Shoko and Toyohashi Chinatsu had different surnames, they just looked alike.

"Xiao Deng, why are you still standing? There are empty seats here."

China stood up, took the lamp's plate to her side, and then pulled the lamp to her seat.

"Okay, sure..."

A little embarrassed, Deng slowly sat down next to Qiannai, while Xiangzi, who was diagonally opposite her, continued to eat silently with her head down.

The three of them remained silent, simply eating their meal; the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

Then it was Chika who spoke first, praising the food she ate at Haneoka Cafeteria for the first time, saying that the taste was surprisingly amazing.

He responded with a soft "hmm," but seemed a little awkward.

I don't know why, but I suddenly asked a question.

"How was the food at Xiaojiana's old school?"

China looked up and pondered for a moment.

The original owner used to study at Tsuki no Mori.

The food at a prestigious school must be excellent.

"The food at Tsukimori is pretty good," China said, mentioning her old school.

She didn't really care that the news of her transferring from the prestigious school to Yuqiu spread.

This matter may cause a variety of mixed opinions about her, but it is as easy to break through as a paper window.

If someone wearing Haneoka's school uniform is seen by a student from Moon Forest on their way home, the news will spread from Moon Forest to Haneoka.

Moreover, if someone really makes a joke about Chinatsu's family situation, is it the joker's fault or Chinatsu's fault?

When China casually mentioned the school she used to attend, it made Shoko across from her stop eating and their eyes meet.

"China, you didn't mean anything by it, but the listener took it to heart."

"Huh??" The lamp sat up straight like a startled squirrel.

I wasn't talking about you.

Xiangzi turned his head to the lamp and said.

You're not the kind of person... you need to be wary of.

Xiangzi silently added a sentence in his mind.

Then he continued to emphasize this to China.

"Be mindful of your own privacy, and others' too."

"Many things that you may think are insignificant could become leverage against you if others find out about them."

Xiangzi seemed to be implying that she shouldn't reveal her affair.

“That’s true,” China replied.

Soon, Xiangzi finished her meal and said something before she got up to leave.

"Don't forget about the lunch break."

She meant going to the brass band club to test Chinatsu's level.

"...??"

Lamp realized that Chika and Shoko had made an appointment.

She had also planned to take Chinatsu to the Astronomy Club during her lunch break...

Chapter 22 Stars and Moon

China watched Shoko leave, then glanced at the lamp sitting to the side. She put small pieces of food into her mouth, chewing slowly, lost in thought.

As expected, it still doesn't quite work...

This time, bringing the light to Xiangzi's table was just a spur-of-the-moment attempt to bring them together; there was no detailed plan.

She thought that since the two of them were having a strained relationship because of the band, could they talk about their daily lives outside of the band, so that she could help Xiangzi and Deng start a conversation?

It did indeed work out, although it was only one-sided...

In Deng's opinion, she didn't know why Xiangzi had unilaterally withdrawn.

But when the two met, they looked as if something had gone wrong.

If we could learn more about Crychic, we might be able to find a way to remove the barriers between the two.

After all, the two of them were separated by a wall when they went to school, and seeing each other after class was a very ordinary thing.

Now, Chika, who knows both of them, finds it hard to bear the awkward atmosphere of them meeting each other without saying a word every day.

In short, let's try to comfort the lamp first.

Chika placed a piece of meat on Tama's plate: "Tama, this sweet and sour pork is quite delicious."

"Thanks……"

Just now, Tama was thinking of inviting Chinatsu to the astronomy club, but it turned out that Shoko also had something to do with Chinatsu.

Furthermore, Xiangzi didn't explain anything clearly, only telling Qianna, "Don't forget about the lunch break."

Deng felt that Xiangzi didn't say anything because he was there.

Those things should only be kept secret by her most trusted younger sister, Chika.

When Xiangzi left Crychic... he didn't explain the situation.

However, when Crychic disbanded, Lamp always felt it was his fault.

Just as Xiangzi said back then, the lamp was the one that needed the most practice.

Even without Xiangzi's encouragement and supervision, one should still be able to sing...

The lamp had only chewed the pork tenderloin it had put in its mouth two or three times, and before it even entered its stomach, it began to feel ashamed again.

When she came to her senses again, Akari suddenly remembered that she should give China a "return gift." These were some small details of becoming human, which she was slowly learning.

So she also picked up a piece of meat from her plate.

"China, the fried meat strips at the cafeteria are also delicious..."

Just as Akari was about to place the meat on Chinatsu's plate...

China grabbed the hand holding the chopsticks and pointed them toward her open mouth.

"Little...Little Chinatsu?"

As the lamp watched the fried meat strips being bitten into China's mouth with her chopsticks, the lamp seemed to be watching.

After that, China avoided eye contact, chewing silently, her cheeks slightly flushed.

This was sudden, without warning, and seemed to have no connection to what happened afterward.

But it did leave a deep impression on me.

Especially when the other person's face and figure are so familiar.

There was no mania, no depression, but that's how it was done.

China felt that she should take more initiative even under normal circumstances, so she did this courage challenge.

"Yes, it's really delicious."

China picked up the remaining vegetables and meat, leaving nothing behind. She rinsed the remaining rice in the bowl with boiling water and drank it, not leaving a single grain.

"Little Chinatie, you're so thrifty."

Deng sighed, and suddenly felt motivated to start eating.

She didn't know that it was actually China's obsessive-compulsive disorder that forced her to do this.

However, since it can help the light out of its sluggish state, Chizuru will not reveal the truth for the time being.

……

"Xiangzi needs to see me, I'll be going now."

After the meal, China, who was walking ahead, said goodbye in this way.

When she turned around, she saw that the lamp looked somewhat worried, as if it had something to say but was too embarrassed to say it.

"Xiao Deng, what's wrong?"

"nothing."

Akari was hesitant to reveal her intention to take China to the Astronomy Club.

If Chika agreed to his request but rejected Shoko… Tohru didn’t dare to think about it.
