I have pure love with them

251. Waiting for Toyokawa Shoko

Ijichi Kouka and Yamada Ryo did not keep the three people waiting. After the message was sent to the two of them, they appeared in the private room not long after. With Izumi's introduction, they got to know Kita Ikuyo.

"Ah...what a beautiful person."

When Kita Yuyo's eyes fell on Yamada Ryo, her eyes were instantly attracted by Yamada Ryo's cold expression. She seemed to be touched in her heart and couldn't help but look at him twice more.

However, Yamada Ryo did not care about Kita Ikuyo's gaze. Instead, his eyes fell on Izumi and he walked in front of Izumi.

"I didn't bully Boqi, please delete the photo."

"..."

Looking at Yamada Ryo who was walking in front of him, Izumi felt helpless about the other party's nerves. He couldn't help but sigh, and then answered with a smile.

"I deleted it that day and didn't keep it."

"..."

Yamada Ryo nodded slightly, as if he believed what Izumi said, and walked silently to the side of Ijichi Hongka and acted like a wooden man.

"What picture?"

Ijichi Kouka heard the conversation between Yamada Ryo and Izumi and was also a little curious. She looked at Yamada Ryo beside her and asked about the photo.

"nothing."

"Hmm...that's suspicious."

Seeing that Yamada Ryo was not going to tell her, Ichichi Hongxia did not ask any further questions.

"Are you the Kita-san that Chihaya-kun introduced? Nice to meet you. I'm Ichichi Nijika, and I'm in the same band as Bo...ah, Goto-san. Thank you for your guidance!"

"Kita Ikuyo, I'm in the same school as Chihaya-kun, please give me your guidance!"

Seeing that the cool girl with a strong personality did not communicate with her, Kita Ikuyo felt a little concerned, but during the communication with Ijichi Kouka, she felt that she was a person with a good personality.

'There shouldn't be any conflicts within a band, right?'

While Kita Ikuyo was thinking, Goto Ichiri sat in his seat, looking at the people who were talking. He wanted to say something to show his presence, but he didn't know what to say and fell into a dilemma.

Although most of the people in the room at the moment were people Goto Ichiri knew, as long as there was an unfamiliar person, Goto Ichiri would not have the courage to speak up...

Although Goto Ichiri no longer had the courage to speak, the matter of the band's lead singer still had to be moved forward, so Izumi took the initiative to serve as a bridge of communication between Kita Ikuyo and Ijichi Kouka, helping the two to understand each other.

But in fact, both of them are talkative characters, and Quan didn't play much of a middleman role. The two of them were already basically familiar with each other and started talking eagerly.

"Now that you are familiar with it, it's almost time for the 'Test' to begin. Kita-san, why don't you sing a song you are familiar with?"

Seeing that the relationship between the two was becoming close and they were about to forget the purpose of today, Izumi took the initiative to speak and drew their attention to the main topic of today. Only then did Ijichi Kouka and Kita Ikuyo react in a daze.

"...Then, I'll sing 'Love Fortune Cookie' first."

Even though most of the people she met were strangers, Kita Ikuyo did not show any shyness. She took the initiative to pick up the microphone and requested a very famous song...

It can't be called professional, but it fully meets the requirements of being the lead singer of a band.

After listening to Kita Ikuyo singing, everyone requested other songs that she was not so familiar with, and most of them gave high scores. It was then confirmed that Kita Ikuyo would join the band.

"I will work hard!"

Kita Ikuyo was very happy when facing her future bandmates.

It wasn't just that she met new friends and joined a band, but more importantly, she had a channel to get closer to Quan!

"Then to celebrate the new member joining the band, everyone - cheers!"

After confirming that Kita Ikuyo was willing to join the band, Ijichi Kouka picked up the juice and cheered.

Others also raised their juices and touched them lightly in the air. Kita Ikuyo observed Izumi beside him out of the corner of his eye and couldn't help but imagine the idea of ​​getting closer to Izumi in the future.

"This is a historic step for the relationship between Chihaya-kun and I!"

Since everyone was underage, they were all drinking juice, so no one got drunk.

In order to promote the relationship among everyone, everyone sang many famous songs together. After the time was almost up, Ijichi Kouka and Yamada Ryo had work at 'starry', so they left first. Goto Ichiri and Kita Ikuyo were temporarily preparing to go home, and tomorrow, Goto Ichiri would lead Kita Ikuyo to 'starry'.

Afterwards, the group left the private room together.

After watching Ijichi Kouka and Yamada Ryo leave, Izumi walked the two girls to the station. Goto Ichiri was going home outside Tokyo, which was a different direction from the other two, so Izumi and Kita Ikuyo walked her to the train first.

"Chihaya-kun."

When there were only two of them left, Kita Ikuyo looked at Izumi beside her and couldn't help but call out to him as he was about to leave.

"Ok?"

Izumi, who had already said goodbye to Kita Ikuyo and was about to leave, stopped and looked back at the girl when he heard the girl calling her name.

"I will try my best!"

"...Well, come on. I'm looking forward to your performance in the live show. I'll be cheering for you from below then."

"Ok!"

Faced with Izumi's encouragement and expectations, Kita Ikuyo felt full of strength. After saying goodbye to Izumi, she got on the tram and prepared to go home. After that, she went to find out what she should do as the lead singer of a band.

"…Well, it's over, for now."

After watching Kita Ikuyo leave, Izumi stood there for a while and then walked towards the train.

It was still early, and it was not yet time for Toyokawa Shoko to get off work. After getting on the train, she went to Tokinoya's house first and met Tokinoya Miura, whom she hadn't seen for a while. She took care of her for a while on behalf of her brother and mother until Tokinoya Satomi returned home.

'At this time, she should have almost finished get off work and gone home.'

After recalling the last time she met Toyokawa Shoko, Izumi felt that it was about time, so she smiled and said goodbye to Tokinoya Mion and Tokinoya Satomi.

Under the sunset glow at dusk, he followed the path he remembered and walked towards Toyokawa Shoko's residence...

252. Shuangshi made a huge sacrifice for you

"..."

Stopping and looking at the boy who was leaning against the wall not far in front of her, staring at his cell phone, Toyokawa Shoko's already gloomy expression became even more gloomy at this moment.

Neglect?

Her eyes stayed on the boy, Toyokawa Shoko pursed her lips, and after thinking for a moment, she came to the boy who was waiting in front of her door.

As if she didn't notice the other person, after walking in front of him, she slowly stopped, wearing white three-fold socks, with her fair legs standing side by side, she slowly turned sideways and looked at the boy beside her.

"What's going on again? If it's something related to Nagasaki, don't tell me anymore. I'm not interested."

Restraining her gloomy expression, Toyokawa Shoko looked at Izumi expressionlessly.

"What a cold reaction. She obviously cares so much about you."

Toyokawa Shoko had no interest in commenting on Izumi's remarks. In her opinion, she had already made her thoughts and opinions very clear. Nagasaki Soyo, who kept pestering her, was the one who was truly disrespectful and causing trouble for others.

Toyokawa Shoko remained silent. Recalling their previous encounters and Toyokawa Shoko's cold reaction, Quan did not expect to have any more in-depth communication with the other party. He silently reached into his schoolbag and took out a thick envelope.

"for you."

"..."

The scene that often appears in TV dramas gave Toyokawa Shoko an inexplicable sense of déjà vu. She did not reach out to take the envelope handed to her by Quan, but frowned and looked into Quan's eyes.

"What do you mean?"

She didn't know whether the content of the envelope was exactly what appeared in the TV series, but compared to that situation, she was more concerned about the reason why Quan took this action.

"No, there's nothing special about it. Shigaraki just asked me to pass this to you. If you don't want to accept it, you can return it to her yourself. Maybe it will make her give up completely?"

Walking up to Shoko Toyokawa, Izumi, who was holding the envelope, answered with a smile, reached out and held Shoko Toyokawa's fair and smooth hand, and placed the envelope in Shoko Toyokawa's palm.

The girl wanted to break free, but she was too late to react to Quan's actions. When she wanted to retract her hand, the thick envelope had already been stuffed into her hand.

"Wait, wait a minute! Why would I--"

After placing the envelope in Toyokawa Shoko's hand, Izumi pushed the envelope into her arms, and before the other party could react, he slowly took two steps back, keeping a distance from Toyokawa Shoko.

"Well, my mission is over. Shuangshi has made a great sacrifice for you. Please be a little considerate of her."

Just as Toyokawa Shoko was about to return the envelope to Izumi, she saw a strange smile on his face. She was stunned and then frowned, feeling uneasy about Izumi's remarks.

"Sacrifice...what does that mean?"

"Hmm? Well, it's not a big deal. Maybe Shuangshi likes it very much. For Shuangshi, she just wants to feel 'fulfilled'. As for how to become 'fulfilled', it's actually not that important, isn't it?"

Seeing the emotions fluctuating on Toyokawa Shoko's face, Izumi couldn't help but laugh, then he chuckled and spread out his hands.

"For details, you should ask her yourself, if she is willing to tell you?"

Feeling that the atmosphere was about right, Izumi turned and left, leaving Toyokawa Shoko standing there in a daze, thinking about the meaning of Izumi's words. When she became aware of the weight of the envelope in her hand again and her consciousness returned to reality, Izumi had disappeared in front of her.

"..."

Biting her lip, she looked down at the envelope in her hand. She was silent for a moment. She did not open the envelope to see what was inside, but just put it quietly into her bag.

"A familiar weight... As expected, it's that... What on earth did Shuangshi do?"

My mind is in a mess, like a tangled mess.

She stood alone under the street lamp for a long time, until the evening breeze made her body feel cool, then she slowly walked towards the house...

[I have finished here. What happens next is up to Ms. Toyokawa.]

After returning to his home, he chatted with Aine for a while, then returned to his room and sent a message to Nagasaki Soyo.

Nagasaki Soyo was alone at home, sitting in the living room in a daze, not even knowing what he was thinking. After hearing the message alert tone, he slowly picked up his mobile phone.

"..."

When she saw the message sent by Quan, her scattered eyes regained some spirit.

[Quan Jun, what did she say to Xiangzi...what did she do?]

Generally speaking, Nagasaki Shoyo could understand Izumi's course of action, but even though she understood it, she still hoped to get more specific and accurate information so that she could react better after meeting Toyokawa Shoko.

For her now, what she cares about is not keeping Toyokawa Shoko, but she feels that deceiving Shoko in this way makes her feel more... fulfilled.

Her heartbeat quickened, and the guilt and uneasiness in her heart made her temporarily forget her loneliness and solitude.

"If it was Xiangzi, would he be able to see through the deception of Izumi-kun?"
