"..."

He watched the other person walk out of the elevator with a smile. After the elevator door slowly closed, Nagasaki Shoyo restrained the smile on his face and a thoughtful expression emerged on his face.

"Is the person living here someone Izumi-kun knows?"

She frowned slightly, and when the elevator made a 'ding' sound, she temporarily stopped thinking and walked out of the elevator slowly...

When I met Quan, I found that in this apartment, many objects with a sense of life had appeared in a short period of time. The originally simple entrance door was now decorated with vases and soft carpets. A pair of home shoes that fit her size were also neatly placed at the door.

The style didn't look like what she would wear. After hesitating for a while, she put on the indoor shoes and walked into the living room. She saw Quan sitting in the living room, holding the handle and staring at a large LCD screen, seemingly playing a game.

Nagasaki Sose frowned subconsciously. She was curious about what Izumi was doing in the apartment. When she found out that Izumi was playing games, she couldn't help feeling disappointed.

Hearing the noise, Izumi, who was originally concentrating on the game, stopped the game and turned around to look at Nagasaki Soyo who had entered the living room behind him.

"Would you like something to drink? I just prepared some tea today."

"……It will be all right."

Nagasaki Soyo, who was originally a little disappointed with Izumi, didn't care so much when Izumi put down the game and greeted and entertained her first. She pursed her lips, watched Izumi go to pour tea, and stood quietly in the middle of the living room looking at him.

“There are a lot more furniture. Aine doesn’t know you’re here, so she won’t be able to stay here at night, right? Isn’t that a bother?”

Quan, who was pouring tea, slowly raised his head after hearing Nagasaki Shoyo's question, glanced at Nagasaki Shoyo who was standing in the living room, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"No, I only come here occasionally. I guess I use it as a secret base. Normally, I won't come here unless there is something going on."

Nagasaki Sōse didn't understand.

She frowned and looked at Quan who was pouring tea in confusion. She couldn't understand what kind of thinking he had in mind to rent such an expensive apartment as his secret base. It would be enough to just use it for the two of them to talk and meet, and go to a coffee shop.

"Well, that's basically it for the apartment. Shuangshi, why did you come here today? Have you finalized the weekend plan?"

"...Well, she has agreed. I can go shopping with her this weekend, but the time and place have not been determined yet. The specific time and place can only be determined after we meet tomorrow."

After pouring the tea, Quan walked towards Nagasaki Souse and gestured to him to sit down on the sofa first.

Faced with Quan's invitation, Nagasaki Shoyo did not refuse and sat down on the sofa silently. Then she watched Quan holding a cup of tea and sitting down on another sofa next to her.

"Then it looks like things are going well. We can start implementing our plan by the weekend. We will leave her with some misunderstandings. Later, after arousing Ms. Toyokawa's suspicion, once the two of them have communicated, she should be misled in the direction we want her to think, as I expected."

Looking at the worry-free Izumi in front of him, Nagasaki Shoyo felt a little concerned.

"Are you sure that everything will go as you expect and there won't be any problems?"

She didn't know why Quan was so sure that things would develop as he imagined.

"I am not sure."

But after she asked the question, Quan, who seemed very confident, gave an uncertain answer.

"But compared to failure, I think the plan will be implemented smoothly. After all..."

Chuckling at Nagasaki Soushi, Quan did not explain the source of his confidence.

But in Nagasaki Shoyo's eyes, she seemed to see that Quan was telling her, "There is no other choice except this method," which made her purse her lips and choose to remain silent.

"After the plan succeeds, Xiangzi will just feel sympathy for me, and maybe feel guilty, but...what should I do after that? If she finds out that we were just deceiving her, she will still leave, right?"

"Then it has nothing to do with me. Forcing someone to stay after leaving is not a good thing... I would like to preach to you, but this is your own business. You have made up your mind to do it, so the consequences will naturally be borne by you. But I think if the other party knew all this, she would probably hate you."

Leaning on the sofa, Quan looked at Nagasaki Shoyo who was lost in thought. Quan, who even knew all this, could threaten him by telling Toyokawa Shoko...

"The person who suggested me to do this in the beginning was Quan Jun, right?"

"But now, I am just telling you what is possible."

"Tell me after everything has already begun?"

"It's not too late to stop now. After the weekend, it will become harder to end it."

Nagasaki Shoyo pursed his lips and felt a little tired in his heart.

She has nothing now. Even if the plan fails, the result will not be worse than it is now.

"...I have no objection. Let's proceed like this."

The story of Toyokawa Shoko is a knot that Nagasaki Soyo cannot get rid of.

After learning the reason for Toyokawa Shoko's change, she also realized that the current Toyokawa Shoko no longer had the mood and energy to carry out band activities, and could no longer return to the time in her memory. That gentle and friendly Shoko no longer existed.

She didn't know whether Xiangzi, whom she had won back with lies, could still fill the emptiness in her heart as before, but the feeling of loneliness gnawing at her heart was unbearable for Nagasaki Shoshi.

Even though what awaits her is a shattered ending, she still wants to try to win back Xiangzi, even if it is only to relive the fulfillment she once had.

Nagasaki Shoyo's answer did not surprise Quan much.

"Just now when I was coming here, I met a girl in the elevator. She was wearing the Miyamasuzaka school uniform. Do you know her?"

When Quan was about to talk to Nagasaki Souyo about the weekend and confirm the details, Nagasaki Souyo suddenly started talking about other things.

"Miya Masuzaka... ah, the one who lives on the floor below?"

When hearing Nagasaki Soyo's question, after thinking for a while, Quan quickly remembered the girl he met last time.

"The one with long purple hair and a ponytail?"

"Ah."

To be honest, Nagasaki Soushi did care about that girl to some extent, but he didn't care too much. He just simply didn't want to continue talking to Izumi about Toyokawa Shoko, so he wanted to use this girl to change the subject.

"I only met her once, also in the elevator, and we talked briefly, but I can't say that we knew each other. I only knew that her last name was Asahina."

"Miyamasu-zaka is often mentioned in the same breath as Tsuki-no-mori, but this is the first time I've been so close to a student of Miyamasu-zaka."

Quan doesn't care much about these things and has no interest in them.

"I don't know much about these things. Whether it's Miyamasaka or Tsuki no Mori, they are places I can't enter."

After hearing Quan's answer, Nagasaki Soyo was also stunned for a moment.

"Izumi-kun, do you want to enter the Moon Forest?"

"…I don't really want to, but if I have a chance to go in and take a look, it would satisfy my curiosity. As a normal boy, it's normal to be a little curious about a girls' school, right?"

Izumi, who had always been in an ordinary school, was indeed curious about the big girls' schools with a long history like Tsukinomori and Miyamasuzaka. She was curious whether the girls in these girls' schools were really the big girls that people imagined, and what the environment and facilities were like.

"Normal boys..."

Looking at Izumi in front of him, Nagasaki Shoyo was a little surprised. He didn't expect Izumi to say this.

"Don't I look like a normal boy in your eyes?"

"...No, Quan Jun is a healthy male high school student no matter how you look at him. There is nothing wrong with that. But...I have never seen Quan Jun talk about love affairs."

Picking up the tea in front of him, Nagasaki Shoyo had no doubt whether Quan had added some sleeping-aid drugs to the black tea in the cup, and took a sip.

"Are we going to move on to the love story session?"

"A guy like Quanjun should be very popular, right? Why don't you have a date yet?"

"Although there are many answers, but... doesn't Shuangshi also have no one to date?"

“Because I was rejected.”

Looking at Izumi in front of her with a smile, Nagasaki Shoyo recalled the scene when she was rejected by Izumi before. The reason why Izumi rejected her at that time is still vivid in her mind.

'I think he already knew it at that time.'

"That's really a shame."

Looking at Quan's reaction that seemed to have nothing to do with him, Nagasaki Shoyo couldn't help but frown, but then he thought of an interesting thing and asked with a smile.

"I'm a little curious. If you had to choose one person to date, among Toyokawa Shoko, me, Deng, and Shiina Tatsuki, who would you choose to date?"

"Isn't there another guitarist with long light green hair?"

When seeing Quan mentioned Wakaba Mutsu, Nagasaki Shoyo was stunned for a moment, but still added Wakaba Mutsu with a smile.

"Xiao Mu? Then, if we add Xiao Mu, which one would you choose?"

"All."

Without any hesitation, in response to Nagasaki Shoyo's question, Izumi gave an answer that left her speechless.

"Izumi-kun...you are really greedy."

After a moment, she forced a smile and replied.

"Since it's an if, then it doesn't matter if it's a greedy answer, right? But if it's serious, Ms. Shiina has to be eliminated first. Being frank is a good thing, but it will still be troublesome to get along with her on a daily basis."

"..."

Regarding Shiina Tateki, Nagasaki Shoyo felt that he could understand Izumi and reach a consensus on the issue.

"So, does Quan-kun actually like me?"

Seeing that he was not excluded, Nagasaki Shoyo recalled his previous rejection and could not help but ask with a smile, observing the expression on Izumi's face.

However, under Nagasaki Soyo's gaze, the expression on Izumi's face gradually restrained. He clasped his hands on his legs and looked at Nagasaki Soyo in front of him with a playful look.

"Now, we are alone in this apartment. Nagasaki-san, you are the weaker party, so it would be better for you to pay attention to some things."

"..."

For a moment, Nagasaki Soushi's heart trembled, and she felt as if she was being targeted by a hunter. Facing Izumi's gaze, she couldn't help but avoid his gaze, showing weakness.

Just as Quan said, there were only her and Quan in the room at the moment, and Quan was a healthy male high school student. In terms of physique alone, she was no match for Quan.

For a girl, it is unsafe for a boy to be alone with her.

"Why would I...?"

At this moment, Nagasaki Soyo vaguely remembered the differences between himself and Izumi, and wondered why he trusted Izumi so much and came to this apartment so frequently during this period of time.

'Is it just because he is Aine's brother? Or is it because of the image he showed in the past?'

Quan found it interesting to see Nagasaki Soyo, who was sitting opposite him, suddenly become silent, nervous and restrained.

"But compared to Shuangshi, I'm actually more interested in Ms. Fengchuan."

Before Nagasaki Shoyo could figure out why she was so confident in Izumi, Izumi's words interrupted her thoughts and made her look up at the Izumi in front of her...
