The soft voice and the lost expression on the girl's face made Quan's gaze towards Takamatsu Deng become subtle. He was somewhat curious about what Takamatsu Deng wanted from him, so he leaned his body slightly and put his face in front of the girl.

"Didn't find it?"

"I have no idea……"

Gao Songdeng pursed her lips, not daring to meet Quan's gaze. After Quan let go of her hand, she placed her fair and delicate hands on her knees and clenched them involuntarily.

Looking at Takamatsu Deng who was gradually emitting a sense of loneliness and loss, Quan, who was sitting on the bed, slowly stretched out his hand and gently placed it on the girl's shoulders, causing the unsuspecting girl's body to suddenly tense up.

"Relax."

The gentle voice sounded in her ears, making the nervous Gao Songdeng stunned for a moment. After pursing her lips, she relaxed her body as Quan said.

With one hand gently on the girl's shoulders, and the other hand around the girl's front, he gently held the girl in his arms, just like when he held Aine when they were children. Izumi gently hugged Takamatsu Touma, and slowly exerted force to hug her tightly.

Feeling herself being hugged tightly, a hint of surprise flashed in the girl's eyes.

"This feeling... the feeling of being embraced..."

Sense of security.

Gao Songdeng found the feeling he was looking for. His fair little hand fell on Quan's arm. His eyes slowly closed, and the feeling in his dream suddenly overlapped.

Holding her Quan, feeling her gradually accelerating heartbeat and rapid breathing, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"The lights... everything, just leave it to me, okay?"

"..."

The girl in his arms trembled slightly and struggled slightly, but it was only a symbolic struggle. In Quan's arms, she gradually gave up thinking, as if she had fallen into a spider web, and was gradually eaten away by warmth and peace of mind...

……

Chihaya Aine, who was in her sleep, dropped her hand to her side.

"..."

An inexplicable feeling of emptiness came over her the moment her hand touched the bed sheet. The sleeping girl frowned, subconsciously realizing that something was wrong.

'Cold...no one?'

Subconsciously, she still remembered that Takamatsu Deng was staying at home and should be by her side, but her arm did not touch anything, which made Chihaya Aine realize something. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at her side with sleepy eyes.

The empty bed seemed to confirm something to her, waking Chihaya Aine up from her dream all of a sudden. She opened her lips slightly, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

But facing the empty bed, she seemed to have nothing to say. She stared silently at the bed where Gao Songdeng was supposed to be lying. She slowly sat up and was about to get up and go to the bathroom to check, but she seemed to hear some movement.

Hesitantly stopping the action of getting up, the girl slowly looked at her wall, then silently lowered her head and put her ear against the wall.

"Maybe... I heard it wrong?"

The warm cheek pressed against the cold wall made Chihaya Aine feel a little uncomfortable, but soon, this discomfort was replaced by a strong shock. The faint whimpering sound made her suddenly open her eyes and she instantly covered her mouth with her left hand to prevent herself from making any sound out of fear.

"..."

She began to wonder when exactly Takamatsu Touma and Izumi would develop to this point.

'Why……'

Biting her lips tightly, Chihaya Aine began to regret inviting Takamatsu Deng to her home tonight. Lying alone on the cold bed, Chihaya Aine's eyes gradually became confused. She wanted to move her ears away, but it seemed as if they were sucked in and she couldn't calm down.

After everything quieted down, she pursed her bitten lips, lay down sullenly, and wrapped herself tightly with the quilt.

But even after closing her eyes, she could not fall asleep. She remained in a light dream state. Around midnight, Chihaya Aine heard the door open and footsteps approaching her bed.

"..."

When the other person lay down on the bed, the lighter weight compared to Izumi made Chihaya Aine know that it was Takamatsu Deng who came back. She remained silent and pretended that she knew nothing.

……

In the early morning, after getting up, Izumi saw his sister in the living room. He noticed that she looked a little haggard, but when their eyes met, they both kept silent tacitly.

"I'm going back..."

"It just so happens that I have to go back to the apartment as well. I'll take the lamp back with her."

"..."

Looking at the two people who were in perfect harmony, what could Chihaya Aine say? She could only force a smile and watch them leave together.

When the two left the living room and the door was closed, she stared at the door in front of her and fell into silence. Just as she was about to go back to her room to rest for a while and get some sleep, she happened to make eye contact with her mother.

"..."

The mother and daughter looked at each other and seemed to sense similar emotions in each other's eyes.

Tired.

But because the situation was too complicated, even family members found it difficult to speak. After looking at each other for a moment and exchanging glances, Chihaya Aine lowered her head with a tired look on her face and went back to her room.

“…I can’t sleep.”

She lay down on the bed, closed her eyes and rested for a while, but found that she couldn't fall asleep, so she got up and went into her brother's room.

She came to the edge of the bed, picked up Quan's pillow, and hit it twice viciously. Then she angrily threw Quan's quilt, lay down on the bed weakly, with a sullen face, and let out a weak sigh.

……

After leaving home, the two walked on the road. Takamatsu Deng and Izumi remained silent, but the girl's eyes kept looking at Izumi and her body kept getting close to Izumi.

Quan was naturally aware of the little movements of the girl showing her desire for closeness. Looking at the girl's fair face, he slowly spoke.

"If you didn't get enough rest yesterday, would you like to come to my place and rest for a while?"

Now, Takamatsu Deng has sobered up a lot. While she longs to stay close to Izumi, she is also worried that her relationship with Izumi will be known by other people, especially Nagasaki Shoyo. Suddenly hearing Izumi's question, she turned her gaze to Izumi.

The concerned look made her eyes evade for a moment, and she was silent for a moment before she slowly opened her mouth to answer.

“I’m fine… But, Aine seems to have noticed.”

Although Chihaya Aine had tried her best to pretend that she didn't notice anything in the early morning, Takamatsu Deng was a very delicate person and could easily see Chihaya Aine's embarrassment from her reaction.

At this moment, Chihaya Aine was not there, and Takamatsu Tomori was a little worried, not knowing how to deal with his relationship with Aine next.

"But... since she didn't talk to you about this, it means she doesn't know how to deal with it. Before she takes the initiative to talk to you about this, just pretend that you both don't know."

"..."

Takamatsu Deng fell into silence. She felt that it was not good to hide the truth, but she was also very clear that once she opened her mouth, the relationship between the band would be easily affected.

The previous band disbanded, and now it can be said that it has no obvious relationship with her, but if what happened with Izumi is known to Nagasaki Soyo, then once 'Mygo' disbands, it will have an inseparable relationship with her.

"If you feel too much psychological pressure, it's okay to treat what happened last night as a dream."

The moment he finished speaking, Gao Songdeng instantly clenched his hands, raised his head and looked at Quan beside him.

"I!"

"I want to be with Izumi forever!"

The girl stopped and looked at Quan in front of her with a firm gaze. Her straightforward words stunned Quan for a moment.

Feeling the gazes from all around, Quan's eyes fell on the girl in front of him. He smiled, put his hand on her head, gently stroked it, and led Takamatsu Deng to the tram station.

After comforting him gently for a while, Takamatsu Deng got on the train.

"..."

After watching Takamatsu Deng's figure disappear, the train clanged away. Izumi, who was standing on the platform, slowly walked to a bench nearby and sat down. After thinking for a moment, he put his hand on the handrail and looked up at the blue sky in the distance.

"It has planted a mine with great destructive power."

He didn't expect that something like this would happen when he went home for the night, and Gao Songdeng's affection for him was a little puzzling to him.

Thinking about it now, he began to doubt whether the other party had had some idea about this since the first time he entered his room in the middle of the night.

"we'll see."

After returning to his apartment, he went into the bathroom, took another shower, put on clean clothes, and tidied up his room. Then he left the apartment and took the train to Yokohama.

After buying an exquisite gift of Japanese confectionery on the way, Izumi came to visit Goto's family.

Because it was a holiday, the Goto couple were both at home. They were a little surprised to see Izumi visiting. They had not heard about Goto Ichiri before, but they warmly welcomed Izumi into the house and told Goto Ichiri who was hiding in the room.

Before Goto Ichiri appeared, Izumi, who was being entertained, was chatting with the Goto couple in the living room. After Goto Ichiri appeared, Izumi went to the girl's room.

Thinking of the topic that the Goto couple had just talked about, Izumi, who had entered the girl's room, couldn't help but reach out and gently wipe the non-existent beads of sweat from his forehead.

"I've been busy with band stuff for a while now, and I haven't updated my videos for a long time. The number of subscribers is gradually decreasing, and the number of video plays is also starting to decrease. What should I do?"

The two sat in front of the computer, listening to Goto Ichiri's questions. Quan opened the girl's account and looked at her video data.

"Just keep updating normally for now. You can also gradually reveal your identity to your followers to attract some attention to 'Ending the Band'."

"..."

Goto Ichiri looked a little hesitant. She was worried about whether her online supporters would continue to follow her after knowing her real identity.

"Specifically, you still have to make the decision yourself. I'm just giving you a suggestion."

"..."

While the two were chatting, Goto Jiri suddenly broke into the room and sat in Izumi's arms. She couldn't understand what her sister and Izumi were talking about, but she felt very comfortable sitting in Izumi's arms, as if she had a brother.

Although there is "child psychology", Izumi does not have a thorough understanding of children's psychology in this aspect. He just lets Goto Jiri sit in his arms and chats with Goto Ichiri about Halloween.

As it was getting close to night, the Goto couple tried to keep Izumi at his place for the night.

"..."

Such enthusiasm made Quan feel a little uncomfortable. He found an excuse, left Goto's house, took the train back to Tokyo, and returned to his apartment.

Because Nagasaki Soushi had been contacted in advance, the other party did not wait in Quan's house. When Quan pushed the door and entered his apartment, the house was pitch black.

He turned on the light, made himself a cup of tea, went into the bathroom, filled the bathtub with hot water, then sat on the sofa and browsed through his unread messages.

【. 】

The message sent by Gao Songdeng was the most special, with only one symbol.

Perhaps he wanted to talk to Izumi about something, but he didn't know what to talk about, which made Izumi think of the original Goto Ichiri.

[Tomorrow, is that okay?]

But now Goto Ichiri has become very bold.

'At least that's the case with me.'
