The members of the Butterfly Band are all still in their first year of high school, but the lead singer, Mashiro Kurata, did not attend Tsukimori Junior High School before, but transferred to Tsukimori in high school.
Therefore, she had already parted ways with her former classmates, which made her feel even more strongly about this song.
Like Nanon Ugetsu, Ruoye Mutsu also thought of Crychic as she listened.
Will it last?
Ruoye Mu thought to herself.
Chapter 141 The Wakaba Family Residence, Movie, Why is there music?
"Phew... Using the radio station's speakers to sing the graduation song is still a bit too risky."
"Huh? Didn't you come up with this idea?"
"Fortunately, the song ended perfectly, but... the chairman will definitely have a talk with us."
"It's alright, all the students in Moon Forest will support us."
"Thank goodness... When I was setting up the equipment before school today, I accidentally rang the bell for the first class earlier than I had set. Luckily, nothing went wrong."
"If we get caught, we'll probably have to come up with a whole new strategy to sing for the graduating seniors..."
"Thanks to Xiaobai's quick reaction."
"Let's pack up the equipment and go have lunch."
"it is good."
…………
…………
The midday incident passed quickly, and the afternoon classes at Tsukimori were the same as usual: language studies, physical education... Before we knew it, school was over.
As soon as the school bell rang, the classroom emptied out in no time.
Nanon Ugetsu put away the cover of another book, placed it in the drawer, then stood up and looked at Wakaba Mutsu beside her.
This time, Ruoye Mu was a little slower than usual in packing her things. It took her two or three minutes to put her textbooks and other belongings into her bag.
Her expression was unusually tense, and she seemed a little hesitant.
"let's go."
Ruoye Mu said softly.
"it is good."
The two followed the same route they took when entering the school that morning: they walked out of the classroom and slowly made their way from the stairwell to the school gate.
Nanon Ugetsu was talking about school matters, and Ruoye Mu would occasionally chime in, but most of the time she listened quietly to Nanon Ugetsu until the two reached the gates of the Moon Forest.
"Let's take the tram instead."
Nanon Ugetsu turned to look at Wakaba Mutsu, who nodded.
This time, there were only two of us on the way home.
Originally, Toyokawa Shoko would be with them, but that rainy night was too traumatic for her, and she couldn't get over it in a short time.
Therefore... for a long time, the line of people going home after school may consist of only the two of them.
Nan Yunyu was a little worried, but thankfully, before school ended, he checked on Toyokawa Shoko's situation by phone and learned that she had returned home, which put his mind at ease.
"After spending time with Xiao Mu... I still have to go spend time with Xiao Xiang."
Nan Yun Yuyue suddenly felt that she was quite busy.
Just then, the two arrived at the tram stop. A moment later, the tram rumbled into the station from afar and stopped in front of them.
Nan Yun Yuyue got into the car first, followed closely by Ruo Ye Mu.
The tram suddenly lurched, and Nanon Ugetsu was worried that Wakaba Mutsu would fall, so she reached out and supported her arm until Wakaba Mutsu was holding onto the railing before gently releasing her hand.
"Um……"
Ruo Yemu gave a soft "hmm" and then followed Nan Yunyuyue to a spot for two, where they sat down side by side.
Bang, bang, bang—
The tram sped off into the distance.
Outside the train window, the scenery along the road changed as usual, but their feelings were completely different from when they took the tram home in the past.
At that time, Crychic had not yet been formed, Toyokawa Shoko had not yet seen the bloody reality of the Dragon World, and even Mortis was still busy dealing with the nightmare fragments of the Dream Eater and had not told Wakaba Mutsuko about her half-blood identity.
Of course, at that time, they hadn't met Takamatsu Akari or Shiina Tatsuki yet...
The truth of the world at that time was so profound and unpredictable, and they seemed so insignificant in the face of the unknown. But when they stepped into the crack of another world, they felt the capriciousness of fate.
Just like Kiyotaka Toyokawa, who graduated from Kassel College, from his childhood life in an orphanage to being approached by the Kassel admissions team, and then meeting Mizuho Toyokawa in Tokyo... will he ever think about his final destination?
In Greek mythology, each of the three Fates weaves their own destiny, which even Zeus, the king of the gods, cannot interfere with.
How difficult is it to see through the illusions of the world and find an ideal place to belong?
Nan Yun Yu Yue is lost in thought.
He looked at Wakaba Mutsu, who was looking down at his palm.
The girl's soft arms brushed against his sleeve, and her calves pressed against his right leg, warm and very gentle.
Gradually, Nan Yun Yu Yue calmed down.
After a while, the tram passed several routine stops, and dozens of passengers got on and off. People sat down next to Nanon Uzuki and Wakaba Mutsuki; they were about the same age as them and appeared to be high school students from other nearby schools.
As Ruoye Mu watched them chatting and laughing, a question suddenly occurred to her.
—Will I still be in the same class as him in high school?
Today, while listening to the senior students of the Butterfly Group sing their graduation song in the Moon Forest, she didn't think about this. Previously, her only concern was whether the two of them would still be in the same school in high school, but she hadn't considered the issue of being assigned to different classes.
Yeah, in high school... they'll be divided into classes again...
Although it's true that the two of them will be in the same school, it will be too difficult for them to sit together in the last row, so close to each other, like before.
Ruoye Mu became worried again.
But... is there any way?
She didn't know if it was too much to worry about this issue now, but when she raised her eyes slightly and looked at Nan Yun Yuyue beside her, she couldn't help but start thinking about it again.
Moon Forest...
Ruoye Mu felt that only at school could she find the long-lost peace.
As I was thinking, the tram arrived at its destination.
The two got off the tram, and led by Wakaba Mutsuki, Nagumo Ugetsu walked with her toward the Wakaba family residence.
On her way home, Ruoye Mu's pace quickened involuntarily.
Nan Yun Yuyue asked curiously:
"Xiao Mu...aren't your parents home today?"
Wakaba Mu nodded.
Nan Yun Yuyue felt a little strange.
Since he escaped that family dinner with Ruoye Mutsu last time, he has come to the Ruoye family home several times since then, mostly to play guitar with Mutsu. This time, however, it was mainly to fulfill his promise to watch a movie.
But lately, every time Wakaba Mutsu lived in her house, only the maids were there; her parents were never home.
What exactly are Takafumi Wakaba and Minami Mori busy with?
I can't possibly be taking on commercial performances and advertisements every day during this period, can I?
Not long ago, Nan Yunyu saw an advertisement featuring Mori Minami endorsing the Toyokawa Group. All I can say is that 'TG-W' truly lives up to its reputation as a classic in the Japanese advertising industry; it's incredibly catchy. He was completely captivated for 15 seconds before he could close the advertisement introducing the Toyokawa Group's business.
As usual, Wakaba Takafumi has been hosting several television programs that he was originally in charge of.
The ratings were no different from usual, still ranking among the top of similar programs in Japan. However, there were no breakout moments. On the other hand, Minami Mori's value increased significantly once again thanks to her endorsement of the Toyokawa Group.
Even if you're busy, surely you can't be so busy that you don't even have time to go home?
Thinking of this, Nan Yun Yuyue probed further:
"Do they need to work at night too? Do they have to leave home at this hour to go to the entertainment company?"
Ruoye Mu shook her head:
"No."
"Mori Nami came back the day before yesterday."
She paused and continued:
“Longwen, a week ago.”
Nan Yun Yuyue instantly understood her meaning, and then her heart was filled with turmoil.
Wakaba Mutsu's father, Wakaba Takafumi, hasn't returned home for a week.
According to Wakaba Mutsu, Mori Minami did come back once, but left again soon after.
The parents' careers are mainly based in Tokyo, but the child is like a left-behind child... Are all celebrities this busy?
However, given the family atmosphere in Wakaba Mutsuki's family, perhaps this... would be better.
Nan Yun Yu Yue sighed inwardly.
He pretended to be calm and looked at the scenery along the way.
There was a miniature garden that had been created by the roadside, with winding paths paved with blue bricks. Several plants whose names I didn't know leaned their branches, their bright red petals curling up in the blazing sun.
The scenery in this villa area is even more meticulously maintained than some parks.
The Wakaba family residence is located in one of the most prestigious areas in Tokyo, and its surrounding environment is naturally much better than most villa-style courtyards.
As top figures in the Japanese entertainment industry, Wakaba Mutsumi's parents naturally have substantial incomes and are fully capable of purchasing such a villa in Tokyo as their home.
However... just like most celebrities, the actual time they spend living in the villas they buy is less than the time they spend with the maids they hire.
However, Wakaba Mutsu would silently return home every day, silently adapt to everything, silently listen to the melody from the guitar in the basement, and finally silently fall asleep until he went to school in Tsuki no Mori the next morning.
The maids in the house rarely spoke to Wakaba Mutsugu; they would only look for him during mealtimes.
On ordinary days, she is alone in the basement.
Day after day, year after year.
Wakaba Mutsu had already adapted to this kind of life.
At the same time, she gradually realized that the maids in the house were all handpicked by her parents and had always been responsible only to them, and she had no way to influence her parents' decisions.
Therefore, at home, they would naturally be obsequious to Takafumi Wakaba and Minami Mori, but towards Mutsuki Wakaba, they would only maintain the same attitude as her parents treated her.
After all, Takafumi Wakaba and Minami Mori are the current masters of the household, while Mutsu Wakaba is just an only daughter without any power.
Even if she might become the head of the Ruoye family in the future, it's hard to say how long it will be before we see that day.
By then, they might not even still be staying at Wakaba's house; they might have already been taken over by another owner.
These maids knew perfectly well who paid their wages.
Ruo Ye Mu didn't blame them. She knew the root cause lay with her parents, and these maids were simply adapting to the rules of survival here.
But to her relief, none of the maids were of mixed race.
This was the conclusion she reached after deliberately observing and activating her spiritual vision and bloodline.
Motis had mentioned to her before that these maids were indeed ordinary people, not spies planted in the house by Mori Minami, but she was only relieved after confirming it herself.
The two were lost in thought, each contemplating things unrelated to tonight's movie, yet these thoughts were inextricably linked to their lives.
Ruo Yemu pulled herself out of her thoughts first, because at that moment, the two of them had already arrived at the villa's door.
"doorbell……"
Just as Nan Yunyu was about to press down, Ruo Yemu gently reached out and grabbed his arm.
Her fair wrist hovered in mid-air, while her other hand pulled a key from her waist.
