Classic soul swap, but a musical

Don’t take the tram. I’m already using Mu’s body. He’s not going to school. It would be better to ask the driver to take him there.

With the air conditioner in the car on, Aragaki Ai felt like she was coming back to life.

When Mu learned that the destination was a bookstore, he couldn't help but feel a little confused and asked.

"Love.....Do you often go to this bookstore?"

"No, not often."

Ai Aragaki took out her cell phone and immediately typed on her notebook, denying the fact that she came here often.

He really doesn't come here often. He always goes to the small bookstore near his rental house, and the owner of the store knows him.

But I will also go to big bookstores and pick out some books to read.

Xiao Mutou's voice sounded a little lost, with a sense of emptiness.

"Oh."

"I often go to bookstores." Aragaki Ai continued typing, "So I didn't lie to you."

The scenery outside the window kept receding until it reached the door of the bookstore. Aragaki Ai really didn't think that bringing a girl to the bookstore for a date would increase her favorability.

But since Mu wants to go to the place he often goes to, let's satisfy her a little.

After all, Mu had satisfied him these past two days.

The car parked in front of the bookstore attracted a lot of attention. It is certain that such a luxury car will attract attention.

Aragaki Ai used Wakaba Mutou's body to get out of the car, attracting more people's attention. If it was Mutou himself, he would probably have started to act like an ostrich and ignore these gazes.

He looked back at them one by one, and would look away from anyone she targeted.

There were a few people who wanted to strike up a conversation, but when they saw this look, they lost interest.

The door of the bookstore opened automatically, and there were several signs at the door, as if there was some kind of event going on. One of the signs had a picture of a seal and several other animals on it.

He didn't care, stepped in, and began to look for books he hadn't read.

I randomly looked at two rows of books, all of which were famous books that I had read a long time ago. The only downside of famous books is that they are too famous.

Following Ai's gaze, Mu noticed these books for the first time, thinking that when Ai left, she would buy the books he had read.

Those books were ignored.

Don’t look at these.

Next is the light novel section. Aragaki doesn’t even bother to read them. Most of them are just toilet paper. It’s okay to read them for your own entertainment, but don’t defile the little Mutou.

He quickened his pace and was noticed by Mu.

Next are the reference books, which are of even less use. After going around in circles, I still end up going back to those classics.

How to increase favorability?

Just as Aragaki Ai was thinking, Wakaba Mu discovered that he had been standing there for a long time, and through his eyes, he could see a book.

In fact, he was just in a daze, but Mu misunderstood and thought that Ai liked the book.

"Love... do you want to buy it?"

"What?" He was suddenly brought back to reality and finally looked at the book in front of him.

“No, I don’t recommend this book.”

"Oh." Ruoye Mu took note of it silently.

Love this book or not.

After casually walking around twice, Aragaki Ai still couldn't figure out how to gain favorability. After he walked in, a figure not far away caught Aragaki Ai's sight.

Why didn’t you notice it just now?

A girl with short gray hair squatted in front of the bookshelf, her arms wrapped around her knees, her eyes fixed on a popular science book about marine animals, without turning the page.

"Do you want to go say hello to her?" Aragaki Ai took out her cell phone and typed on it.

"......"

No one knows about Xiao Mutou’s troubles, only Aragaki Ai knows that she is silent now.

She hesitated for a long time, but finally decided.

"...Just say hello."

Hearing her voice, Aragaki Ai almost laughed out loud, and immediately understood what she was thinking.

She felt it was not good not to say hello, but she was also afraid that he would chat with Gao Songdeng for too long and ignore her.

He hummed softly, walked to the side of the little animal, squatted down with her, and looked at the same popular science book with her at eye level.

"tomorin, why are you here?"

"Alas...mutsumi..."

She finally noticed the person next to her and made a slightly panicked sound.

"Don't worry." Aragaki Ai comforted her.

"I...this bookstore is having a promotion where you can get free Band-Aids when you buy a book," she explained.

Volume 1: Chapter 32 Do you have any good male friends?

"Is that so?" Aragaki Ai thought it made sense. "Then do you want to buy it?"

"Yes." She closed the book. "I'll go check out."

"Well, see you tomorrow night."

Ai Aragaki looked at her receding back and used the detection device for today.

[Name: Takamatsu Tomo]

[Skills: Vocal Music lv3, Poetry Composition lv4, Extreme Concentration lv7]

Very good, just as he thought.

But it’s not songwriting, it’s poetry writing.

It's fine without gravity skills.

Aragaki Ai withdrew his gaze. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he seemed to hear Xiao Mutou breathe a sigh of relief. When he came to his senses, he could no longer hear it.

"Xiao Mu, is there any book you want?"

"..."

Ai Aragaki felt that she really needed a book on the art of language, or some kind of communication master.

He looked around again and actually saw two books, but after thinking about it, he decided not to buy them.

An hour has passed, and the affection between us hasn't grown at all. Perhaps this kind of thing really can't be rushed.

The bookstore is quite large, with two floors.

Ai Aragaki finally squatted in the classic book area, preparing to choose a book as a commemorative gift for Mu today.

After choosing for a long time, he finally chose Natsume Soseki's I Am a Cat. When he went to the front desk to check out, he was offered a free book cover.

"Love... do you want to see it?"

"No, it's a gift for you."

Ai Aragaki took the book wrapped in a book cover and placed in a gift bag from the clerk, thanked him, and prepared to leave the bookstore.

Mu was silent for a while before speaking.

"Give it to me?"

"Well, I haven't given you any gifts yet, right? This is a commemoration of our first date." He said casually.

Does this situation count as a date?

I'm afraid it will be difficult.

But little Mutou was very happy, and his voice was so high that it reached the sky with just one word "hmm".

She noticed the title of the book, I Am a Cat.

What does love imply?

This was the first time Ai gave her a gift, so it must be hinting at something.

She was feeling a little uneasy, and it took her a long time to thank Ai.

"It's okay, you're welcome. It's your money."

She didn't expect this kind of reply. The phone screen went black the next second, but Ruo Yemu still felt that this was a gift chosen by Ai for her and it was a gift from him.

【Wakaba Mu’s favorability increases by 2】

When I was about to leave, it started to drizzle at the door. The heat just now was swept away and it became refreshing. Behind me was the air conditioning of the bookstore, and in front of me was the drizzle.

At this temperature, pantyhose are just right.

This little rain was nothing to Aragaki Ai, but he was unwilling to take risks with Mu's body.

"Want to walk around some more? Or should we just go home? It's already raining, or is there somewhere else you'd like to go?"

Words kept popping up on the screen, but Ruo Yemu looked through it without moving his eyes.

"No, I went home to play the piano."

Half an hour later, Ruo Yemu sat on the piano bench in the basement again. He felt that this was the most comfortable time.

No need to talk, no need to communicate.

There is the sound of the piano, his breathing, and his heartbeat in my ears.

If only days like this could continue forever.

Ruoye Mu couldn't help but think so.

There was not much time left for Aragaki Ai to play the piano, only more than an hour.

The next day, he went offline to work again and ran to Xiao Mu's body to practice the piano, playing the piano non-stop.

After nearly two days, the favorability is still 64 points, just sixty points more.

The piano progress has also been stuck.

It seems like everything is not going well.

Crychic's rehearsals also did not go smoothly.

Sunday night was still a cloudy day with a gray sky.

crychic encountered the same situation as in the animation, Takamatsu Deng couldn't sing.

"Huh?" Shiina Riki couldn't believe it. Nagasaki Suyo, who was the one most likely to have problems, not only had no problems, but performed well and had even memorized the score. The lead singer, who was the least likely to have problems, couldn't sing a single word.

Holding the drumsticks, she watched Nagasaki Suyo and Shoko comfort Takamatsu Deng, and then looked at Wakaba Mutsu standing in the corner.

Sure enough, it was just as Xiangzi said.

It was the first time I saw Ruo Ye Mu so quiet. He didn't say a word and just played his piano.

Completely different from the person I met the last few times.

But, that statement...how could it be possible? She still didn't quite believe Xiangzi.

A person has two souls, one of which is a man. It sounds like a setting made up by a person with a middle school syndrome.

Maybe I'm in a bad mood today.

With the comfort of Xiangzi and Nagasaki Suyo, Takamatsu Deng finally agreed to sing.

Unfortunately, the sound is still too small.
