Her eyes were calm and her smile was faint.

"In that case, let's listen to what songs he left behind."

"After listening to it... maybe, it will change something."

Toyokawa Shoko had no objection, but was also a little surprised by her change of attitude.

But considering that Su Shi was still in a period of mental sensitivity and on the verge of collapse, it was normal for her emotions to fluctuate drastically from time to time. He did not think too much about it, but just kept a close eye on her to prevent her from doing anything dangerous.

Under the supervision of Toyokawa Shoko, Nagasaki Suyo did not make any suspicious moves. She just went back to her room calmly, took out her laptop, sat next to her, and began to read the data in the USB flash drive.

The USB drive was very clean, with only two folders in it, and the file names read:

[To everyone] and [To Xiangzi].

-

The epilogue of Su Shi is coming to an end, and what follows will be the flashbacks of other people to complete the story of the physical bombing group.

Volume 167: Chapter Chapter Nagasaki Suyo. Part

Nagasaki Suyo remained silent, her expression did not change, except that her lips were pursed a little tighter.

——Until the end, Xiangzi was still the most unique person in his heart.

No matter how much she likes him, even if she can do anything for him... as her "most important friend", Nagasaki Motoyo can only be a "member" like Kazumu-chan and the others, and will not receive any different treatment.

She once accepted this unfairness and decided to bless the love that did not belong to her.

But now, things are different.

'As long as I wake up from this nightmare first, as long as I return to reality first and tell Ming Hai - only I guessed his thoughts, only I am willing to die for him. "

"Perhaps, I can also become his 'special'."

Nagasaki Suyo's mood became more and more anxious, but she knew that she couldn't be impatient, nor could she show any abnormality.

——After all, the medicine hasn’t taken effect yet.

"Mr. Sushi?"

Seeing that her mouse did not move, Toyokawa Shoko asked in confusion.

"I just don't know which song to listen to first." Nagasaki Motoyo shook her head and calmly let go of the mouse. "You decide. After all, there is a song that belongs only to you."

"…Then let's listen to another song first."

Toyokawa Shoko didn't think much about it and directly clicked on the folder "For Everyone".

There is only one video file in it, titled "Daytime", which should be the name of the song.

After clicking play, a sad piano prelude sounded first, and then the picture turned from dark to bright, and the figure of Minghai sitting in front of the electronic piano gradually became clear.

Both girls subconsciously held their breath, staring at his angular and handsome profile in trance, with uncontrollable sadness and attachment welling up in their hearts.

"Mr. Ming Hai..."

"Ming Hai..."

Toyokawa Shoko raised her hand slightly and tried to touch his face, but was blocked from the screen by the cold screen.

Unlike the portrait that she always holds in her hands and uses as comfort every day, Ming Hai in the video is colorful and vivid, as if he had never died and just lived in a different world from them.

Just seeing the corners of his mouth slightly raised, so many memories came to her mind like bubbles, but were frozen into slag in the cold and cruel reality, scratching her heart like broken glass scattered by a spotlight.

A warm yet tingling feeling came from my chest, which caused a crack to appear in my heart that had been pretending to be strong and freezing all unnecessary emotions. Transparent tears slowly seeped out from the sad crack.

"No... I can't cry." Coming back to her senses, Toyokawa Shoko quickly wiped the tears from her face, closed her eyes and took a deep breath to calm herself down, "If I cry... Narumi-kun will be disappointed. He obviously wants me to live well..."

The emotional dam must never collapse.

Otherwise... she didn't know how long she could hold on.

If it weren't for what Ming Hai said at the end, perhaps the current Toyokawa Shoko would be a different version of Nagasaki Suyo?

——She actually has no right to condemn Su Shi.

Toyokawa Shoko, who seemed mature and strong to outsiders, was nothing more than an empty shell who survived as a normal person by relying on the expectations left by her deceased lover.

“…What a big reaction.”

Nagasaki Suyo watched coldly as she looked at her awkward expression of wanting to cry but not wanting to.

Although she was a little shaken at the beginning, she had already decided to meet Ming Hai, so there was no need to be too sad or nostalgic.

After all, if she waits a little longer, she will be able to hug the living Ming Hai tightly in reality.

At the same time, Ming Hai in the video ignored their meaning and spoke slowly as the progress bar moved forward.

“Sometimes you hurt someone unintentionally without realizing it…”

His eyes gazed into the distance, and his slender fingers fell on the piano keys as lightly as raindrops.

The beautiful and slightly sad melody dances with the ethereal and magnetic voice, ebbs and flows in this quiet living room, plucking the hearts of the girls.

"Only after you lose something do you begin to realize the mistakes you made..."

"We can never go back to the days like we used to be."

“No matter how dazzling the past was, we must take steps towards tomorrow.”

"Even if it's snowing heavily."

The drum beats become increasingly stronger and the emotions become increasingly full.

His fingers were still flying on the piano keys, but his eyes slowly turned to the camera and he smiled at the possible audience.

"If you live for someone, you won't be able to say all the right things, right?"

Nagasaki Suyo was stunned for a moment and unconsciously clenched her hands on her knees.

"If we meet again on a certain street, can you remember my name?"

"By then, there will surely be a spring breeze blowing, right?"

Toyokawa Shoko's eyes were dazed, and past memories flashed through her mind again. She could only bite her lips to endure the sobs rushing out of her throat and the tears filling her eyes.

The music changes from sad to happy, from sorrowful to inspiring.

It was as if after leaving, I was trying to push them out of the abyss of sadness and let the rainy sky usher in a new day.

He sang so loudly.

"Transform into a brand new self and start your life all over again!"

“We are still marching forward on this closely connected and ever-expanding road.”

"..."

"We can never go back to the days like we used to be."

“No matter how much you miss the past, you must take steps towards tomorrow.”

"Even if it's snowing heavily."

The song was only four and a half minutes long, but it quickly came to an end as the two listened quietly.

"People are always slow to understand what is in other people's minds."

"Even so, we still love and are loved, knowing that living on is a predetermined destiny."

"..."

"Farewell to everything with pure whiteness, the falling snow!"

"Please bury it all, just for today."

"Hide them all—"

His fingertips slowly stopped as he cried out in a pleading voice, and he closed his eyes, immersed in the lingering aftertaste of the sound.

The accompaniment then faded away and everything returned to silence.

After a while, Ming Hai turned sideways to face the camera, his eyes were a little complicated, but he smiled with emotion.

“I don’t know if you can see this video.”

"But no matter what...even if I leave, don't be too sad, and don't do anything stupid for me."

"The night will pass sooner or later, and the day will rise sooner or later."

“So, this song is for you.”

Ming Hai laughed heartily.

"If my death and my name do not disappear with my departure..."

"Please live your life well and keep moving towards tomorrow."

"It doesn't matter whether I exist in this world or not, but it would be a pity if you lovely guys and the smiles on your faces were gone."

“Xiangzi, Sushi, Deng, Mu, Lixi… I am really happy to know you and to meet [CryCHIC].”

He read each person's name carefully and gently, then slowly stood up and walked in front of the camera.

"I hope we can meet again one day in the future."

He said this softly, and the picture finally stopped at his slightly drooping eyes, like the brightest star in the night.

The video ends here.

The living room fell into silence. The two of them lowered their heads in silence, as if they were recalling the song "Daytime" and the words he had just said.

The sound of rain falling outside the window was like snowflakes breaking into ice.

I don’t know how long it was before Toyokawa Shoko rubbed her forehead, squinted her eyes and sighed softly.

"If only I could see this video earlier..."

Even if it cannot heal the pain caused by his departure, just this song and this sincere confession can give them the courage to cheer up and move on.

The darkness that came from him can only be illuminated by him.

Su Shi was not the only one who collapsed because of Ming Hai's death - it was said that Deng had locked herself in the room and had not come out for a long time. Riki had not contacted anyone since then. Even Mu began to be absent-minded, staring into the distance in a daze from time to time. She would not answer when asked what she was thinking about.

Ming Hai is like the heart of [CryCHIC]. When his heart stops beating, all his organs begin to fall apart and can never return to their original state.

——Perhaps it was because he knew this that he left this video?

If they had seen it earlier, they would have been able to walk out of this abyss of despair filled with pain sooner.

"Mr. Suyo, do you understand now? What Narumi-kun wanted to express is the hopes and expectations he placed on us."

Toyokawa Shoko raised her head and looked seriously at Nagasaki Motoyo beside her.

“Like I said in the hospital that day… until the very end, he hoped that we could live well and let the music of [CryCHIC] resound in the hearts of people all over the world.”

"Even if it takes years, or even a lifetime, to come to terms with the fact that he's gone, that doesn't matter."

"--most importantly, live to remember his name and the words he said."

"Then, look forward to the day when we meet again in the future."

Her voice was soft, and her palm covered the cold back of Nagasaki Suye's hand, trying to use the warmth of her palm to warm her heart and soothe her spirit that was on the brink of danger.

"..."

Nagasaki Suyo still had her head down, her long hair hiding her expression. She sat on the sofa like a doll, motionless and silent.

He neither rejected nor approved of her offer of comfort.

——Maybe she needs some time to silently digest this complicated feeling?

Toyokawa Shoko thought so, smiled helplessly, and did not urge her to react. Instead, she held the mouse again as if to change the subject, uploaded the video to the orchestra's shared cloud file, and posted it in the group.

"I hope everyone can cheer up as soon as possible after watching this video."

"Then let's go and pay respect to Ming Hai-kun together."

Toyokawa Shoko whispered softly, hiding the loneliness in her eyes with a relieved smile.

"…After all, there are still many things I haven't told him."

Whether as the leader of [CryCHIC] or as Ming Hai's wife-to-be.

She must take responsibility to help everyone regain their spirits, face reality, and get out of the shadow of this accident.
