We agreed to be in a band for life, what the heck is Dragon Raja?

This thought suddenly arose in Toyokawa Shoko's mind.

She didn't intend to explore any secrets in her grandfather's study; she simply wanted to see if there were any photos of her grandfather and grandmother together.

After all, his maternal grandmother had passed away long ago, and he had never seen what she looked like.

Even in her memories, her mother, who had always been very kind to her, never mentioned anything about her mother, only expressing some sadness at her mother's death from illness.

“Mother…Grandmother…”

Once the thought arose, it lingered in my mind.

Toyokawa Shoko stroked the doll depicting her mother one last time, then turned and walked upstairs.

Tapping.

Toyokawa Shoko walked up the stairs.

Her maternal grandfather, Toyokawa Sadaharu, did not live on the same floor as her, and since she had always thought of him as a very serious person, she rarely came here before.

Toyokawa Shoko glanced back discreetly, keeping a close eye on her surroundings.

no one.

Some of the maids were preparing dinner, while others were cleaning downstairs. She was all alone on this floor.

Toyokawa Shoko breathed a sigh of relief.

She walked to her grandfather's study, carefully pushed open the door, and tried not to make a sound.

however,

squeak-

The wooden door hinges were a bit old, but even with a slight turn, they still made a low sound as the door opened.

If the door continues to be opened, the creaking sound will definitely get louder and louder.

then,

Shoko Toyokawa gritted her teeth, turned sideways, and squeezed through the gap.

As she slowly moved inside, the doorknob brushed against her chest. She then pulled in her stomach slightly before finally entering completely.

"Finally got in."

Toyokawa Shoko breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked toward the study.

The desk is made of cypress wood with rounded, gentle edges. Various documents are piled on it, half of which are neatly arranged, while the other half, which contains items resembling books and letters, is placed more casually.

In a corner of the study, there was a small vase with two nearly wilted white chrysanthemums.

There are some calligraphy works from the University of Tokyo on the wall, but no photos.

It looked no different from an entrepreneur's study, with no trace of anything unusual.

Toyokawa Shoko walked around the study, looking at everything. She walked from the bookshelf at the edge of the study to the desk and then looked at the documents on it.

The titles of most of the documents were related to the Toyokawa Group, such as "Spokesperson Selection Plan," "Corporate Restructuring," and "First Quarter Board Resolutions"...

Toyokawa Shoko tried her best not to move the document, and then looked at its contents.

"It's nothing..."

She gently pulled open the drawer under the table to see if there was anything inside, but found nothing.

"nor."

There were no decorative items like photo frames on the table or in the drawers; most of the items were printed documents on white paper.

Toyokawa Shoko glanced at the door that had been opened a crack, and suddenly thought she heard footsteps approaching.

"time to go."

She moved.

Although she was in her own home, she didn't want the maid to know that she had entered her grandfather's room.

Just as Toyokawa Shoko was about to leave, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a letter on the coffee table next to the sofa.

"This is……?"

She looked down.

The sender's name was Tachibana Masamune, and the mailing address was the former Koga Garden of the Metropolitan Government. There was no other information.

"There's no time..."

Toyokawa Shoko looked at the stamp affixed to it. It had a postmark, but it didn't have a date like those official documents from companies.

She reached out and rubbed it; the envelope had been torn open, and the letter inside had been taken by her grandfather, leaving only an empty shell.

Toyokawa Shoko didn't pay much attention to what was written in the letter.

If she knew that Tachibana Masamune was in Tokyo, but instead chose to send a letter to Toyokawa Sadaharu, she would surely be puzzled.

But she only glanced at it briefly, and then squeezed out of the room again in the same way she came in.

"call."

Toyokawa Shoko breathed a sigh of relief and straightened her clothes.

Despite her best efforts to tuck in her stomach, she inevitably bumped into the door latch due to her development and almost managed to open the door.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly and prevented this from happening.

"Ugh……"

Shoko Toyokawa pretended nothing had happened and returned to her room.

She sat back down at her desk and composed herself.

"By the way, Nagumo-kun... are you aware of this?"

He was the first person to meet Gao Songdeng, and he was the one who kept helping Deng to have the courage to go on stage and sing.

If there were anything wrong with Takamatsu, he should have been the first to know.

However, during band practice, Gao Songdeng, who had previously been somewhat reserved in expressing himself, did not show any unusual behavior.

and……

Toyokawa Shoko recalled everything that had just happened.

All of this sounds a bit far-fetched, and if I told it to someone else, they probably wouldn't believe it.

Toyokawa Shoko sighed softly, then gently folded the pencil drawing on her desk.

She intended to put it in a drawer or in a hidden compartment.

But then I thought, what if the servants who come in to clean see it? Although they are strictly forbidden from rummaging through things, it's not impossible, so it's better to put it somewhere closer to me.

So, Toyokawa Shoko tucked it into a book in her handbag.

After doing all this, she combined the melody in her mind and began to compose the music for "Spring Shadow".

…………

Shoko Toyokawa is composing music for "Spring Shadow".

the other side,

Not long ago, on a tram.

Nangumo Ugetsu is on the same tram as Wakaba Mutsu.

After leaving Nagasaki Motoyo, the two of them were alone on their way home this time.

The tram was quite crowded today. When Nanon Ugetsu first stepped onto the tram, it was already packed.

So he and Wakaba Mutsu stood together near the back door and waited.

bang-

Swish!

The tram continued its journey.

After passing a station, Nanon Ugetsu looked at Wakaba Mutsuki.

At this moment, the guitar bag was still on her back, and sometimes Ruo Yemu had to turn her body slightly to prevent it from blocking the passengers behind her.

Nan Yun Yu Yue's heart stirred.

"Mu, give me the guitar bag."

He reached out and touched behind Wakaba Mutsu.

Ruoye Mutsu paused for a moment, then obediently slid the guitar case off her shoulder and handed it to her.

The two formed a slightly encircling shape and then placed the guitar bag between them.

Nanon Ugetsu and Wakaba Mutsu each extended a hand to support it, preventing it from falling.

"Thanks……"

Ruoye Mu said softly.

Nanyun Yuyue smiled and said:

"fine."

He looked at Wakaba Mutsu, who had been looking down at his guitar case. When he noticed that Nagumo Ugetsu was looking at him, he looked up and met his gaze.

Nan Yun Yuyue looked into her eyes.

Although the girl's expression was indifferent, her eyes were fixed on him, as if she wouldn't look away from him either.

Nan Yunyu suddenly felt a surge of competitiveness, so he focused his gaze even more intently, a slight smile appearing on Ruo Yemu's delicate face.

Wakaba Mutsu was stunned.

Her eyelashes drooped down, then lifted up, then drooped down again.

After an unknown amount of time, Wakaba Mutsumi whispered:

"Do you still want to go see a movie?"

Movie?

Without a second thought, Nan Yun Yuyue replied, "Okay."

He naturally remembered that the last time they were at the Wakaba family mansion, the piece they practiced was "Princess Mononoke".

When Nangumo Ugetsu heard Wakaba Mutsu playing this song, she remembered that the old movie was going to be re-released, and couldn't help but sigh, "I must find time to go see it if I have the chance."

Because she was going to Inuyama's agency to sign a contract this weekend, Nanon Ugetsu wasn't sure if she could complete the process in one day, so she didn't discuss it with her this weekend.

He originally planned to wait until the contract process was complete, then find a day when the band wasn't practicing, and then go see a movie.

Unexpectedly, today, Wakaba Mutsu brought it up on his own initiative.

Nan Yun Yuyue pondered for a moment, then said:

"Let me think if there are any movie theaters nearby that are close to Moon Forest..."

"Toho Cinema? Songzhu Cinema? Further away, there seems to be a United Cinema that just opened."

He looked at Wakaba Mutsu.

Unexpectedly, Ruoye Mu shook her head and said softly:

"The movie theater... is too crowded."

Come to my house.

The moment she uttered those words, in her mind, Metis suddenly laughed out loud, as if she was happy that Wakaba Mutsu had followed her advice.

Nan Yun Yuyue nodded:

"No problem, but... is no one ever home?"
