Let me see your shine!

Hua Lian rushed towards Xiangzi with tears in her eyes:

"What's going on? It's not true that you're going to drop out of school, is it?"

Mahiru and the others also came over.

Xiangzi said, "I feel that I can no longer learn anything here, so I have to return to Kyoto to inherit the Senka-ryu."

Her good idea was to retreat in order to advance, and to make Futaba admit defeat by dropping out of school.

"Why, why!"

Hua Lian said reluctantly.

Chunna said, "It won't be too late to inherit the family business after graduation, right?"

Mahiru also advised: "We have worked together for so long, I don't want Xiangzi to leave."

Xiangzi secretly revealed a charming smile.

Nana asked, "What did Futaba-chan say?"

…The problem is that Futaba didn’t come to see Xiangzi.

So she could only force herself to say, "This has nothing to do with Shuangye. It's my own decision."

It wasn't until we returned to the dormitory that Futaba came over and asked:

"Are you serious?"

Xiangzi, who was packing her luggage with her back to her, smiled secretly and said:

"It's no use trying to stop me."

"It's just one failure..."

"Huh? I don't understand what you're saying. Futaba, just stay here and have fun. Get along well with Chloe."

"Do you have money for the trip home?"

"Don't worry about it."

"Can you ride the Shinkansen?"

"I know. You don't have to send me off."

"That's no problem."

Futaba asked and left.

"……what?"

Xiangzi was confused.

She looked back and saw Futaba was gone.

"Humph!"

She puffed out her cheeks and continued packing.

The barrage of the small broken station has also been opened:

"Le, Futaba is ignoring her."

"Well, let's go back to Gotham. Batman said he won't fight you anymore."

"So tsundere."

"Tsundere is outdated. Wake up."

"Why go back to Kyoto? I suggest you do it in front of Futaba, Shisha, and make her regret it."

"I suggest that if you don't know how to make a suggestion, don't make one."

On the other side, Futaba returned to Claudine's room and lay on the bed.

Claudine, who was sitting on the ground reading a book, said:

“So Xiangzi is serious?

...Well, this might be a good opportunity."

"Eh?"

"Xiangzi hasn't figured out yet that this school isn't one where you can just get in with the mindset of 'accompanying someone.'"

She said nonchalantly, "Besides, Futaba squeezed into the eight protagonists based on her strength, so you can be alone without any problems."

Futaba heard her words and fell into memories.

When they were in middle school, the two of them were lying in the Japanese-style room and chatting.

Futaba asked, "Seito Music Academy?"

"It's a school that teaches acting. You can learn not only Japanese dance but also various other types of dance."

Xiangzi said, "I want to hone my dancing skills there and become the best in the world."

"Eh……"

"So Futaba, you have to come too."

"what?"

"The taxi fee is 500 yen."

"The fare has increased?!"

"Humph……"

"Humph……"

After Futaba finished thinking about it, she hummed softly and fell asleep.

Xiangzi was the same and fell asleep unhappy.

the next day.

Futaba didn't try to persuade her to stay, so Xiangzi changed into casual clothes in a huff and prepared to leave.

Everyone was reluctant to see her go and came to see her off. Hua Lian even exaggeratedly lay on the ground and hugged her legs, not wanting her to leave.

Xiangzi loudly showed off her Shinkansen ticket for noon, trying to lure Futaba out, but no one came out.

Instead, Maya came over and said:

"I'll feel lonely because I feel the same way."

"what?"

“In order to keep up with the people who are chasing me, in order to support the people who are chasing me, I have to maintain a sense of mission to be the best version of myself.”

The camera showed Futaba and Claudine in the room.

Maya smiled and said, "I hope you take good care of yourself when you return to Kyoto."

Xiangzi left the dormitory amid Hualian's miserable crying.

As she walked towards the Shinkansen platform, she waited for Futaba to persuade her to stay.

But no one came until she reached the platform.

The audience of the small broken station issued a barrage again:

"Oh, why bother?"

"Batman really said he won't beat you anymore, come back."

"Futaba didn't come to stop it. This is really bad luck."

"These two are such fussy people."

"But Karen is really sincere."

275 The Promised Revue Opens

Time passed slowly, and Xiangzi was waiting on the Shinkansen platform.

She listened to the train announcement and looked around, but didn't see Futaba.

"Why……"

She finally couldn't bear it anymore.

In the close-up, tears welled up in her eyes: "Do you really not care if I leave? Why don't you come after me?"

"Ha ha."

In the next shot, a panting Futaba appears behind Xiangzi:

"You were the one who said you wanted to drop out of school, right?"

Xiangzi showed a happy expression, but quickly suppressed it.

She turned and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Because it feels like you're on the verge of tears."

"Huh? Are you stupid?"

Xiangzi was anxious: "Because nothing can be done when I'm not here, are you scared?"

"Who on earth is the one who can't do anything? You clearly weren't planning on going back. I know you were just putting on an act for me."

"Then why are you chasing me breathlessly? It's obvious you're here to keep me!"

"Xiangzi, you are so stubborn!"

"Futaba, you traitor, heartless ghost, and big fool!"

The people around were watching them quarreling in surprise.

Some people also complained on Twitter:

"What kind of couple's quarrel is this?"

"You two should get married soon."

“I got it. I got it.”

Then, both of their cell phones rang rapidly.

Giraffe's notification has arrived.

The selection is about to begin.

Everyone was excited:

"coming!"

"Selection!"

"I understand."

"I bet 5 yen that Futaba wins."

"Then I'll bet on Xiangzi."

"There's really no mention of Karen in this episode."

Bah!

A cross-shaped light like starlight illuminates the screen, and two people wearing Revue costumes stand on the stage.

Xiangzi stood in front facing the camera, while Futaba was behind her, kneeling on one knee facing the left.
