The social phobia substitute will not dream of the band girl

With one hand covering her skirt, Enka was held by Ping and easily climbed over the fence.

"Is that okay, Koito? ...Or would it be better if I carried you over there, or even on my back?"

On the other side, Toru's eyes widened slightly, as if he had discovered a new world; Hina's eyes rolled around, and no one knew what thoughts were coming to her mind; Higuchi Enka's face was as cold as the moon, and she wished she could send Hirayuma to the resurrection match with a moon punch.

"I-I can do it!"

"Well... come on then."

Pingxin held it here, Toru and the others took it there, and Koito easily crossed the border—

By the way, Toru unexpectedly got a pure white one, and Hinana also surprisingly got a mature black one with lace and a bow. As for Enka... I'll definitely get a chance to check it out myself later~

After everyone had passed, he was the only one left. Ping Xin took a step back and then jumped directly. To avoid the effect being too exaggerated, he stepped on the railing to gain leverage and successfully climbed over the wall.

When landing, I even made a gesture to praise the sun, hoping to meet again on time tomorrow.

Asakura Toru gave a thumbs up: "Oh - Nice."

Hinana clapped her hands happily: "Ahaha~ 10 points!"

Koito also observed the atmosphere and said, "Um, well... Shin-chan is very athletic!"

"...Aren't we here to find the ball? Let's go."

Enka saw him land and turned away, being the first to act.

......

...

..

"What a surprise... There's no water in the swimming pool."

Pingxin was very disappointed that the opportunity to show off his skills, which he had been looking forward to, was gone.

"Ahahaha, seriously, this isn't good... diving—splash~"

"Ahaha~ Plop~!"

But if it's like this, it might be even more interesting—

"Asuka Ma F. Hirashin, attack now!... Plop~"

Enka and Koito stood by the pool and watched the three of them fooling around.

"Tōru-senpai, freestyle~"

"Oh, not bad... then, backstroke~"

"Hey, this is dangerous, huh?"

Ping Xin raised his hand to catch one, then slid over to catch the other.

"You're here, aren't you?"

"Right~?"

Haha, there's really nothing I can do about you guys~

Koito, who was standing above, instead spoke anxiously to warn, "Really... this is very dangerous!"

After hearing this, the three people below stopped playing the empty swimming game and immediately changed to elegant dancing.

"It only takes about a second to reach the moon. The world beyond the dimension is so vast~ Time can only be measured in seconds, even defying common sense~"

"...nothing does what, and something is born ~only for us, it all seems to come from you and me~"

"...whether it's colored toilet paper or transparent sound and color, the aesthetics are based on the premise of when they will fade."

"...If I could reach the moon by closing my eyes for about a second, my present would expand infinitely~ If I could reach that eternal love, the meaning of life would be far deeper than the moon~"

"If I could just keep passing by people for a hundred years, I'd already gotten used to it. Time, too, would be exploring the things that never stop."

Ping Xin is dancing, Toru is also dancing——

The two danced together in a dry swimming pool, in a pool full of stars, and under the moon.

Dancing in the eyes of the crowd, rippling in his heart, flowing in her heart.

"...By the way, how about adding this song to your cover roster? Your previous covers were pretty well-received, so it's probably how many people got to know you guys... What's up?"

Aside from Toru Asakura who was still in his arms, the other three looked at him with different expressions...

Wait, Tou is in my arms?

"...No, why didn't you remind me?"

"Hmm—why on earth is that~?"

Toru was released by Pingxin with a smile, then turned around in place and finally performed a not very standard but very cute kneeling.

"Ahem... oh right, there's also the cute and lyrical '回る空うさぎ/The Moon Rabbit Spins in the Sky', which is more suitable for Koito; as for 'ミカヅキ/The New Moon'... I'll give it to Enka; and for Hinana, the playful and cute 'サーチライトと月灯り/Searchlight and Moonlight' is more suitable—"

I've tried so hard to change the subject, can't you just let me go?"

"Um... no~"

Tou smiled and hugged him.

"No~!"

Hinana dribbled the ball and hit someone.

"...It would be great if you could focus all your energy on your creation. I've never felt so eager to lecture someone."

Haha, Enka’s mother is really strict.

"Ah, the ball... found it!"

Koito, the only normal person who didn't go astray.

"To be precise, it's not creation, but 'memories'... Never mind, this is fine~"

Ping Xin announced that the matter was over, and everyone started playing football happily.

Didn’t we come in to look for the ball?

"Well, come on... I feel like I can play a good game now."

It was still a transparent ball, but this time it did not turn into a meteor but was bound by gravity.

"By the way, when is swimming class...Hina!"

"Ahaha~ Got it~!... Koito, come answer~!"

"Eh? Hey hey hey—wait... I caught it."

Koito was so anxious that she jumped up and ended up stopping the ball with her chest. It seems that it is not a steel plate. Everyone applauded her. Oumei fell down~

"1. Generally speaking, swimming lessons are in June, right?... Enka-chan!"

"...Good pass. To be precise, it should be in the second half of June, around the 20s... You're asking this because you want to see us in our school swimsuits, right?"

Enka powerfully kicked Hirashin in the face—

Good news, this shot is pretty accurate.

Bad news, ordinary mail is also quite accurate.

Since no referee called the police, he just caught the ball and spun it on his fingers.

"No, I just suddenly remembered that I think I took swimming lessons for the first time... What was I doing at that time last year?"

No, forget it, it's almost time for this year anyway~

"Come to think of it, I'm a little curious. After all, aside from comics... I've never seen anyone wearing a school swimsuit in person. This is a specialty of the East Country, so I have to try it... and appreciate it."

Ping Xin couldn't explain it, so he bounced the ball twice and passed it directly to Toru.

"...Now I have to go pick up the ball again."

"...Go to the moon?" Tou asked back.

"No, no, it wasn't kicked that far, was it?"

Ping Xin used a crescent-shaped knife-like hand to hit Tou on the head.

Unharmed, this kid is so terrifying!

"But if Toru wants to go... then let's go up there one day. Maybe we can catch a rabbit~"

Ping Xin stretched. Anyway, he was the only one in the current version, so landing on the moon was easy. The only trouble was that Tou couldn't be too far away from him when playing.

"Hmm...will there be, Bunny?"

Toru Asakura looked at the clear yellow full moon in the sky.

Will there be such a day?

Chapter 72: Going to work and picking up a steel maid

After school, I just go to work.

Today is not 2+1, it's 2+2 inside and outside the band, Ikuyo Kita is here to help——

"One day when I was in Shimokitazawa, I saw my senior's street performance and it was love at first sight... The slightly different atmosphere, the slightly androgynous appearance, everything about him made me say 'Ah~'!"

"Ah~"?

"And the most important thing is the way you hold the instrument!"

Kita Ikuyo clasped her hands together, feeling extremely happy even just thinking about it.

"Ah, I understand that. When I hold it, I always feel like the instrument is in control of my hands."

Is it because of the difference in personality that you are different from Liang-senpai or [senpai]?

"Yes, the instrument will take over the main theme!"

Kita Pika Pika's eyes looked at Goto Ichiri, as if he had found a like-minded person. It seemed that he was quite addicted...

I originally thought it was someone who wanted to talk to me about something, but it turned out to be just Liang’s little fan girl. I worried for nothing.

Ping Xin, who had given himself an invisibility buff, walked behind the two of them and even poured himself a bottle of drink, leaning against the wall and drinking it.

If you have nothing to do, why not listen to some gossip?

Looking at the hustle and bustle on the stage, Kita saw his own aspirations in this colorful fantasy.

"...Ever since I heard Ryo-senpai's performance, I've been following her activities. But a while ago, she suddenly left her previous band...After she ended the band and started recruiting members, I couldn't help but want to join."

I see...

Ping Xin nodded, thinking that this kid might be able to be tricked into being the lead singer.

Although the team currently has the very friendly Ijichi Hongka and the impeccable appearance of Yamada Ryo, they still lack someone like her who can stand out and attract attention.

There is light before there is shadow. Just like when Ping Xin was singing on the stage before, he had to attract extra attention, so that the guitar hero would have time to "transform" and appear on stage.

Goto Ichiri was still marveling at Yokaku's drive, but Kita Ikuyo was still producing——

"After all, speaking of a band... isn't it like a second family? We spend more time together than our real family, chasing the same dream together. It feels like an incredible relationship that goes beyond just friends and lovers!"

Ping Xin nodded. He could understand this principle...

You know shit!

When I think about it, I've never even formed a band. Even when I performed on stage [over there], I played pre-recorded music of different instruments. Isn't that too pathetic?!

The ordinary cola made his throat hurt, and he drank two more cups. At this moment, only free stuff could bring him back some happiness.

"I've never fully participated in club activities, so I'm really looking forward to this kind of activity."

I understand...

Goto Ichiri can fully understand this feeling of longing, friendship, bond, hard work, sweat, achievement... People can live without these things, but they cannot live without the heart to pursue them.

"...Yes, that's why I want to join the band and become the daughter of my senior! A relationship deeper and closer than just friendship...!"

"Pfft!... Ahem, I thought someone with common sense would finally find a way to make it 2:2. I didn't expect you to be one of them!"

Usually at times like this it's a sisterly relationship, right?

What's wrong with my daughter? You are only one grade apart. Are you also studying at Trepp?
