I have pure love with them

But on the recruitment board, either they were recruiting bassists or drummers, and there was no sign of recruitment for guitarists and lead singers.

"Is everyone thinking the same thing?"

After staring for a while, she didn't see Chihaya Aine recruiting guitarists and vocalists, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

When forming a band, it turns out that everyone prefers to be the one that attracts attention.

"go home."

The classmates who came with her have already gone to the recording studio, and she was left here alone without finding a suitable recruit. There was no point in staying here any longer, and with that clerk with a bad attitude, she had no interest in staying here anymore.

She turned and left the recruitment board, and just as she was about to leave, she happened to run into someone she met yesterday, walking towards her.

"what."

"Ok?"

Having agreed with Chihaya Izumi to meet at 'RiNG', Nagasaki Shoyo arrived at the meeting place early. She was thinking about how to talk to Izumi and ask him about Shoko to get more information, when a pink-haired girl suddenly stopped and made a surprised sound when passing by her, which made Nagasaki Shoyo stunned for a moment.

'Pink hair?'

Before Nagasaki Soushi could react, Aine recognized Nagasaki Soushi as the person who cared about her yesterday, and took the initiative to express her gratitude to the other party.

"Hello, thank you for yesterday."

He hadn't thought about what happened yesterday yet, and his mind was full of Chihayazumi's Nagasaki Soyo, with a reserved and gentle smile on his face.

"Thank you for your concern."

'care?'

The scene he saw at the intersection yesterday and the story of the girl in front of him instantly came to his mind, and Nagasaki Shoyo's face showed realization.

"Ah... it's you."

She smiled at the pink-haired girl in front of her, and when Aine saw that she had also recognized her, she couldn't help but complain.

"I was being scolded by a stranger and I was confused."

Thinking back to Shiina Riki's personality, Nagasaki Shoyo smiled slightly.

"That's right, but she probably means no harm."

Nagasaki Shoyo’s answer made Aine stunned for a moment, and then she became embarrassed.

"Ah...I'm sorry. I think I said something bad about your friend."

Nagasaki Soyo, who knew Shiina Ritsuki's character well, didn't think that Aine had offended Shiina Ritsuki in any way. Compared to what she had just said, it was completely true. She gently comforted the girl in front of her, her eyes resting on the girl's long hair. The cherry pink hair color made her think of that man, as well as the conflict between Shiina Ritsuki and the other party yesterday, which made Nagasaki Soyo particularly curious about her.

"It's not good to stand here, let's go have a cup of tea together."

The naive Ainin was immediately deceived by Nagasaki Souse's deceptive and gentle appearance. Upon the active invitation of this Miss Tsukinomori, she immediately developed a strong liking for her and went to the cafe at her invitation.

After sitting down and being served by the waiter, Aiyin didn't know what to order, so she asked Nagasaki Souyo for advice.

"Black tea, it's delicious. I personally like it very much."

Aiyin flipped through the menu and was a little surprised when she saw the various drinks on it.

“There are many kinds.”

The price of tea is 600 yen, desserts are cheaper at 360 yen, and the price of main dishes is basically 550 yen.

It seems that the price is not very expensive.

"You keep using honorifics towards me, but I thought we were probably in the same grade."

"Are you a freshman?"

Chihaya Aine, who was holding the menu, was stunned for a moment and looked at Nagasaki Soyo opposite her.

"Yes, he's from Grade 1."

"You look so calm, I thought you were a senior..."

Nagasaki Sōyo smiled slightly.

"Can you tell me your name? My name is Aine!"

"Aine, my name is Soyo... Nagasaki Soyo, I may have misunderstood, but...Aine, do you know a boy named Izumi?"

136. I won’t let the band end!

Although he could ask for the surname, he could not ensure that if the other party had the same surname, they would definitely know Chihaya Izumi, even if they had the same hair color. So after some inner thought, Nagasaki Shoyo directly asked the girl in front of him if she knew the person called "Izumi".

But after asking the question and looking at the surprised expression of the girl in front of him, Nagasaki Shoyo knew that he was not wrong. The girl in front of him was related to Chihaya Izumi!

"Izumi... Could it be 'Chihaya Izumi'?"

Suddenly meeting the eldest lady of Tsuki no Mori, and hearing her brother’s name from her mouth, Aine couldn’t help but feel strange.

With his hands crossed and supported in front of him, Nagasaki Shoyo smiled at the girl named 'Aine' in front of him.

"Yes, I heard him talking about his sister before. When I saw you, Aine, I felt that you were somewhat similar to him. Could it be that... you are Quan's sister?"

"Ah... yes, I'm his sister."

She thought she had made a new friend, but she didn’t expect it to be someone her brother knew. Aine couldn’t help but grumble in her heart that she had never heard her brother talk about knowing Miss Tsukinomori.

"Um, Shuangshi, what is the relationship between you and my brother?"

"He and I are friends."

Without any consideration, Nagasaki Soushi gave her answer. Aine was a little surprised at the speed of her answer, but she felt a little relieved in her heart.

"Actually, I had an appointment with him here today, but he just sent me a message telling me that he had some problems and would come a little later. I didn't expect to meet his sister here. It feels amazing."

Carefully observing the girl in front of her, Nagasaki Shoyo previously only thought that her hair color was the same as Izumi's, but now that she knew that she was Chihaya Izumi's sister, the girl's face seemed to gradually overlap with that person. Her eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at the girl in front of her with a smile on her face.

"Eh? Quan... Will my brother come over later?"

"We agreed to meet at 16:30. He should be here in a little while. Didn't Quan talk to you about me?"

Looking at the girl in front of him with a smile, Nagasaki Shoyo tried to begin to understand the girl in front of him.

"Hmm... well, I've never been particularly interested in his interpersonal relationships, so I don't know much about them. As for Shuangshi's affairs, I haven't heard him talk about them either... Have you known each other for a long time?"

"We've only known each other for a while."

"How did you meet?"

Aine was somewhat surprised that her brother knew the eldest daughter of Tsukinomori, so she was very interested in how they met.

"The process of getting to know each other? Tell me——"

When Nagasaki Soushi was about to talk about how she met Izumi, someone whom Aine didn't want to see came to their table with two cups of tea and placed the tea in front of Aine without saying a word. The rough movement made the teacups make a series of noises, but when he placed them in front of Nagasaki Soushi, the movement was much smoother and there was no sound at all.

"Thank you, Lixi."

"Humph."

Before leaving, Shiina Tachibana gave Aine a fierce look, causing Aine's body to shrink involuntarily. After Shiina Tachibana, she could not help but complain to Nagasaki Soyo.

"What a bad attitude..."

"Why do you have conflicts?"

Seeing the tit-for-tat between Shiina Riki and Aine, Nagasaki Soyo, who almost forgot his original purpose, remembered what happened yesterday again. Looking at Chihaya Izumi's sister in front of him, he asked her the reason for the conflict between her and Shiina Riki.

Shiina Riki gives people the impression of being a little cold and aloof, but she would not target someone for no reason. This is the first time she has seen someone react so badly to someone.

"I do not know either."

After taking a sip of the black tea, Aiyin felt that the taste was a bit bitter, so she picked up the sugar and added it to it.

"I was talking to my friend and she rushed over to me and asked, 'What's the matter?', 'Are you really her friend?', 'Have you invited the Light Group to form a band?' and so on. She suddenly got angry at me. It was really inexplicable!"

Taking a sip from the teacup, Nagasaki Shoyo suddenly heard a familiar name from Aine's mouth. She looked at the girl in front of her with a heavy yet steady gaze.

"The lamp you are talking about, is it Takamatsu's lamp?"

"...Yes, we are in the same class. Do you know her?"

Nagasaki Soyo's question gave Aine a strong sense of déjà vu, just like the other party's question "Do you know Izumi?" just now, which gave her a bad premonition.

Putting down the teacup, Nagasaki Soushi clasped his hands together again and supported them in front of himself. While looking at Aine with a smile, his gesture had some different meaning, which made Aine, who noticed a little difference, feel a little nervous in her heart.

"I am her friend."

After answering Aine's question, Nagasaki Shoyo's eyes fell on Aine, looking at the gray and white school uniform she was wearing.

"I see... She's in Hanegaoka."

The five-member band, Mutsu Wakaba and she were in the same school, Tachibana Shiina worked at 'RiNG', Nagasaki Shoyo's whereabouts were unknown, and the only people missing were Tomo Takamatsu and Shoko Toyokawa...

But now, she knew where Takamatsu Tomo was, and the only person whose whereabouts were unknown was Toyokawa Shoko.

"So sweet!"

Too much sugar was added to the black tea, and Aiyin choked after drinking it, and couldn't help coughing.

"How did you two meet?"

"Do you want to form a band with Xiao Deng?"

Ignoring Aine’s question, Nagasaki Shoyo stared at the girl in front of him, and he was very concerned about what Aine had just said.

"Well, I invited her but was rejected."

She smiled awkwardly, not caring that Nagasaki Soushi did not answer her question. She covered Yingrun's little mouth with a tissue. After recovering from the sweetness, she answered Nagasaki Soushi's question and thought of a possibility.

"Um...were you and Deng-ta in the same band before?"

"Play the bass. Did Xiao Deng say anything to you?"

Facing Nagasaki Shoyo's repeated questions, all of which were related to Takamatsu Deng, Aine suddenly felt a sense of heaviness, smiled awkwardly, and did not answer.

Although she talked a lot with Takamatsu Deng, the content was probably not what the Miss Tsuki no Mori in front of her expected.

"That's it."

Aine’s silence was also an answer to Nagasaki Soushi, and she lowered her eyes.

"Um... how good is Shuangshi's bass?"
