The lady can hear my voice

Shiina Riki was a little embarrassed, "I'll treat you to lunch later..."

Hachiman Kailing shook her head, obviously not caring much.

-

I came to the familiar hospital and saw the familiar doctor again.

As soon as Shiina Riki sat down, the doctor's first words were.

"Girl, where's your boyfriend? Did you break up?"

Shiina Riki's face immediately turned red, "I told you last time that he's not my boyfriend!"

Hachiman Kailing stood aside, listening to the conversation between the doctor and her with great interest.

The doctor touched Shiina Riki's wrist and asked her several times if it hurt.

Shiina Riki always said that he didn't feel anything.

The doctor nodded with satisfaction.

"It looks like he has recovered well. He is indeed a young man."

Shiina Riki: "Then why do I feel like... I can't exert the same strength as before?"

"Exerting strength? Are you still an athlete?"

"No... I'm a drummer."

The doctor suddenly realized.

"Band, right? That's great. My niece also said she wants to join a band, but I haven't seen any movement from her recently."

Shiina Riki: "Doctor, so I..."

"It could be a neurological problem, or it could be a psychological problem. Anyway, from what I can see, you have recovered quite well, and... you started playing drums just one month after your recovery, right?"

Shiina Riki nodded.

"I started doing strenuous exercises just one month after recovery, and now I don't have any injuries, which is very good."

"…Okay, thank you, doctor."

-

After leaving the hospital, Hachiman Kailing looked at Shiina Riki's distressed expression and couldn't help but ask.

"You're recovering well now, but you're not very happy?"

Shiina Riki lowered his head slightly.

"Yesterday, our band performed again."

Hachiman Kailing: "I know you have been invited to the Saitama Music Festival. I have found your names on the official website. Congratulations."

Shiina Riki: "...That's not the point. The main point is that I feel like my performance has been getting worse and worse recently."

"I originally thought it was because my hand had not fully recovered, but now I realize that's not the case..."

Hachiman Kailing: "Missing your boyfriend?"

Shiina Riki: “Huh?”

Hachiman Kairin: "The boyfriend the doctor mentioned just now, is that Niijima-san?"

Shiina Riki glared at her, "Don't say such nonsense!"

"I was obviously talking about the performance."

Hachiman Kailing also said seriously: "I know you are talking about the performance, but it is obvious that your mind is in a mess now."

"If it's not a problem with the hands, then there must be something wrong with the heart."

"Are you in love with Niijima-san?"

Shiina Riki heard Hachiman Kailing tell the naked truth in a cold tone.

His expression changed.

First she was angry, then shy, then guilty and sad, and finally she gave a dull response.

"Well, a little bit."

She actually admitted it.

Hachiman Kailing felt that just watching the changes in Li Xi's expression within the past minute was like watching a two and a half hour long youth love movie.

Did not expect ah.

Could it be that classmate Li Xi would also develop romantic feelings for someone?

Hachiman Kailing was silent for a while and then spoke.

"Why not just ask him out right now and confess your feelings to him."

Shiina Riki: “Huh?”

"What on earth is going on in your mind?"

"How can I confess to him now?"

After hearing this, Hachiman Kailing felt like complaining.

So it means it's not possible now, but it may be possible later, right?

Looking at Shiina Riki's red face and angry appearance, Hachiman Kailing felt a lot of emotions in her heart.

Never mind. I'll help you one more time.

-

For lunch, Shiina Riki chose a relatively quiet Western restaurant.

Looking at the sunlight shining through the treetops outside the window, Shiina Riki's eyes seemed inexplicably melancholy.

Hachiman Hailing handed over the menu, "I've already ordered, it's your turn."

"Oh, okay..." Shiina Riki nodded, ordered a bowl of pasta at random, and handed the menu to the waiter.

When the food was almost served, Hachiman Kailing suddenly stood up.

"Mr. Li Xi, I'm going to the bathroom."

"okay."

Shiina Riki continued to look out the window, and five minutes later, a familiar male voice sounded in her ears.

"Lixi?"

Wearing casual clothes and simply dressed up, Sora Niijima smiled at Tatsuki Shiina.

Shiina Riki turned around, and when he saw that it was him, his whole body stiffened.

"I heard from Hachiman-san that you had something urgent to talk to me about. What did you want to tell me?"

Sora Niijima had just rushed here because the place where Tachikawa Shiina was eating was not far from the supermarket he went to.

Shiina Riki was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that he had been tricked by Hachiman Kailing.

She blushed and patted the seat next to her awkwardly.

"Sit over here."

Sora Niijima smiled and sat down with her.

Shiina Riki explained: "Hai Ling is sitting opposite me, and she will be back later, so..."

Sora Niijima: "I know."

Shiina Riki was somewhat unhappy with the fact that he could remain calm and composed in front of her.

Then he continued, "Why are you leaning so far away? Do you want to sit on the floor?"

"..."

"Closer."

"so?"

Shiina Riki grabbed his hand and bit her pink lips.

"here."

At this time, the distance between the two was only 30cm.

Shiina Riki was a little more satisfied, so he asked, "You've been very busy lately, haven't you?"

Sora Niijima: "...It was two days ago, but not now."

Sora Niijima decided to just sit back and do nothing until the end of the live show.

Things have their priorities, and he currently plans to focus all his energy on mygo.

Shiina Riki: “Oh.”

Sora Niijima: “……?”

Shiina Riki bit the straw and took a sip of his ice water, then noticed that Niijima Sora was looking at him again.

Her face turned even redder: "Why are you looking at me?"

Niijima Sora: "...Um, Riki, don't you have anything else to say?"

Shiina Riki: “…Yes, but I need to think about how to say it.”

"it is good……"

"Waiter, can you bring me a glass of ice water too, please? Thank you."

Shiina Riki looked at his profile, thinking about what happened yesterday and Nagasaki Suyo who suddenly became normal during this period.

"null."

"Ok?"

"Before, Su Shi was actually not very cooperative with us. Did you talk to her alone about something?"

Upon hearing this, Sora Niijima nodded and said, "I had a good chat with her."

"really."

Shiina Riki: "After you talked to her, she suddenly became a lot more normal, and our band practice was able to get back on track."

“So actually, the last performance was able to reach that level thanks to you.”

"Thank you."

Niijima Sora couldn't help but be dazed when he heard Li Xi say such frank words.

Shiina Riki continued to drink sips of ice water, trying to lower the inexplicable heat at the moment.

"And then there was yesterday."

"Yesterday... I was actually the one who performed the worst, and it was Lenna who got criticized instead."

“At that time, I should have stood up.”

“But I didn’t do it.”

"Luckily I have you, Sora."

Shiina Riki said this and sighed softly: "From the formation of our band to now, you have always been the one who has protected us from wind and rain. For this, I am very grateful, but also very ashamed."

Sora Niijima: "Richi..."

Shiina Riki: "So, this music festival live can be regarded as a gift from us to you."

“It will definitely perform well.”

"Just keep an eye on us."

Sora Niijima looked at Shiina Riki's determined eyes and responded with a smile.

"it is good."

After Hachiman Kailing came back, Niijima Sora had already left.
