"no!"

Asagi and Nina both denied Iori Ryoune's speculation.

"Forget it, I'll wait outside for a while. Remember to call me when you've dealt with it." Jingqin Liangyin ignored Asagi and Nina's rebuttal, waved her hand and walked out.

As the door closed, the room suddenly fell silent. Asagi and Nina sat facing each other, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.

If only it were MMK sitting here instead of her, Asagi thought. MMK had a straightforward, uninhibited side to his personality. Seeing Nina like this, MMK could hold her in his arms and comfort her softly.

These are things Asagi can't do.

"Tomorrow, I'll go back with you." Asagi thought about it and made a decision. He could only bite the bullet and endure the scolding at school once more.

"Aren't you going to school?" Nina wiped her tears and asked Asagi.

"Don't talk about me as a dropout." Asagi left after saying this.

After saying goodbye to Renai, he walked out of the room. Renai's sister, Jingqin Liangyin, was standing in the corridor outside, looking at the street outside. Her figure was hidden in the dim light, and she looked unreal.

When Asagi came out, Jingqin Liangyin turned around and looked at him. Asagi nodded gently at Jingqin Liangyin and said goodbye.

After returning home, Asagi sent a message to MMK and 486 saying "Everything is fine". Asagi didn't want them to worry too much, and he also knew Nina's thoughts and her stubborn temper.

Even if her family disagreed, she would definitely find a way to escape. However, sometimes she would get carried away and her brain would short-circuit, leading her to make completely opposite decisions.

After Asagi left, Jingqin Ryune returned to the room. As soon as she entered, she saw her sister Jingqin Nina sitting there, grinning foolishly. She was holding a group photo in her hand. Jingqin Ryune saw several unfamiliar girls and a boy in the photo, the Asagi from before.

There was a large, water-pen-written English line at the top of the photo: "MY ALL." Also, the girl in the photo was surrounded by various musical instruments. Jingqin Liangyin wasn't a music person, so she couldn't name any of them.

However, this should be the band that Nina is in. However, there is no instrument next to Asagi in the photo. He is just standing in the middle of the girls, sitting on a high stool surrounded by the girls.

This was the only thing that Jingqin Liangyin found strange.

Didi, didi, didi

Jingqin Liangyin was just about to say a few words to her sister when Nina's phone suddenly rang. Nina picked up the phone and saw a friend request message flashing on it. Nina swiped to the message bar and saw a familiar profile picture appear in her eyes.

Hina? Renai exclaimed in surprise. She took a closer look and saw that the applicant's information had been verified by the software, indicating that the applicant in front of her was Hina herself, not a fake.

Looking at Hina's application, Nina instinctively puffed up her lips, wanting to refuse. However, she couldn't do that. Looking at Hina's profile picture, Nina finally lost her temper and approved Hina's request.

"Can you come out for a moment? I'm downstairs."

After accepting Hina's application, a message popped up in her chat. Attached to the message was a picture. When Nina opened the picture, she suddenly felt a tightness in her chest, a suffocating feeling.

Because that kind of photo was taken facing her door, and the shooting angle was the street downstairs.

Jinna rushed out and leaned over the railing at the edge of the corridor to look down. Hina also noticed Jinna and looked up at her. Their eyes immediately met.

"Hi..." Hina waved at Nina.

"Hmph..." Seeing Hina, Renai immediately became furious. She turned around and went back to her room, slamming the door shut. The door made a dull thud.

"I knew you would come out."

"Why are you here?"

After a while, Renai appeared in front of Hina obediently.

Chapter 184 Kumamoto

On Thursday, Asagi got up early in the morning to clean up. He simply washed up and ate something casually.

Last night, he looked up the distance from Tokyo to Kumamoto. He was shocked to learn how long it would take. He thought it would only take a few hours to get to Nina's hometown, but it actually took 11 hours.

Asagi couldn't help but wonder if his phone was broken. He didn't remember Japan having such a large car. This meant they would have to spend the entire day in the car.

Since he had said that he would go back with Nina, Asagi had no choice but to grit his teeth and persevere. He heard that Nina's father was a teacher, about 40 years old, and such a person would hardly be deceived by Asagi.

However, Asagi was not without confidence. He knew that Nina's father really loved Nina, but he just didn't know how to express it, let alone how to love her.

Asagi knows this type of father all too well. On the one hand, they are very stubborn, but on the other hand, they love their children deeply. They always think that what they give to their children is the best, so they always want their children to walk on the path they have planned, meticulously.

However, once a violent conflict occurs between them and their children, the only thing they can do is to compromise with their children.

After preparing some daily necessities, Asagi picked up his travel bag and walked out of the room. He might stay overnight in Kumamoto today, as it would probably be around 8pm when he arrived in Kumamoto.

This time is exactly the same as when Nina came to Tokyo.

Dongdongdong, Dongdongdong, Dongdongdong

Asagi stood outside Nina's door and knocked. The door opened from the inside, and Jingqin Suyon appeared in front of Asagi. She was wearing a loose shirt, her hair was messy, and there was a toothbrush in her mouth, and her lips were covered with white foam.

She lazily watched Asagi invite him inside.

"Nina hasn't woken up yet." Jingqin Liangyin went back to the sink and brushed her teeth. She didn't seem to notice what she was wearing.

"Because we had guests last night, Renai slept very late." Jingqin Liangyin mumbled something because she was still brushing her teeth.

"Guest?" Asagi was a little confused, but he didn't intend to ask any further questions.

"Have a seat, I'll wake you up." Jingqin Liangyin quickly ended the fight and walked into the bedroom. Asagi heard a loud noise coming from the bedroom, as if something hit someone.

Immediately afterwards, Renna's screams were heard from the house.

When the door opened, Nina came out in a daze with tears in her eyes. When she saw Asagi suddenly appear in the room, Nina's brain immediately went into a short blackout. She froze in place, blinking and staring at Asagi.

It wasn't until Rencai looked for a long time that she realized something was wrong.

"Why are you here?" Nina pointed at Asagi and shouted.

"Yeah, why are you here?" Just when Nina was at a loss, Nina's sister Jingqin Suzune also joined in. They pointed at Asagi and asked at the same time.

Asagi watched in silence. "You were the one who opened the door for me, and now you're acting like that?" Is teasing the younger generation the only joy of adulthood? At least Asagi had seen plenty of characters like that in anime.

"Did you forget? I said I would accompany you back to Kumamoto tomorrow?" Asagi explained helplessly.

Jinna's expression suddenly showed sudden realization. She suddenly stood at attention and gave Asagi a not-so-standard military salute, then smiled awkwardly to ease her previous gaffe. Asagi was no longer surprised by this.

Kumamoto City (くまもとし) is located in central Kyushu, Japan. It's the island's third-largest city and the seat of Kumamoto Prefecture, the prefectural capital and the prefecture's largest city, with a population of approximately 74 (as of April 2016, 4). The city boasts neat streets, numerous buildings, and a modern feel. Kumamoto Castle, one of Japan's three most famous castles, is located here.

Asagi didn't pay much attention to these things, but he saw another keyword online: Kagoshima. Kumamoto City is located at the center between Fukuoka City and Kagoshima City. He remembered that the heroine of Makoto Shinkai's "5 Centimeters per Second" lived in Kagoshima, and Asagi used to like watching that anime.

He only watched it twice because of the tone of the story. If he watched it too much, his stomach would hurt.

There's no anime in this world. I wonder when I'll be able to share the stories of my original world with this world. Right now, he's laying the foundation, accumulating knowledge. The most difficult step in anything is the initial accumulation.

Once the foundation is solid, the building will soon rise. I'm really looking forward to the summer music festival season. Asagi and MMK are waiting for this wave of popularity to take off. A bigger stage, broader channels for publicity, a place to attract more attention from professionals, a festival where they can meet many bands.

Asagi sat bored on the Shinkansen, watching the scenery flash by outside the window. During this long journey, the only thing that changed was the monotonous scenery outside.

Jingqin Ryoune and Jingqin Nina sat across from Asagi, their heads bowed, their thoughts etched indistinctly. Nina, in particular, looked a bit uneasy.

"Asaki-kun? Can I just call you by your name?" In the middle of the conversation, Ichinose Ryon took the initiative to talk to Asaki.

"Please feel free, Suzune-san."

"Can I ask how you and Nina met?" Jingqin Liangyin didn't care at all that Nina was right next to her. She asked Asagi directly, ignoring Nina's dissatisfaction.

"Hmm..." Asagi thought for a moment. Should he say he knew them from anime? Did he see the band Cry Girls and get to know the heroine, Nina? If he said that, he'd probably be considered a psychopath.

"We met in a band. There's a singer in our band that Nina really likes, and Nina happened to meet that singer when she first arrived in Tokyo. Coincidentally, Nina arrived too late and missed the real estate agency's business hours, so the singer took Nina in for a night."

"The singer found Renna's voice beautiful, so he invited her to join the band as the lead singer."

Asagi briefly described the story of Nina and MMK, and how MMK invited Nina to join the team. Jingqin Suzune was a little disappointed because she didn't hear anything interesting from Asagi.

"What's the name of your band?"

"MY ALL." At this time, Rencai answered dissatisfiedly.

"Oh." Jing Qin Liangyin nodded, and then started searching on her mobile phone.

People don't deliberately remember things they are not interested in, and Asagi is well aware of this. So when Jingqin Ryone couldn't remember the name of the band, Asagi didn't care at all.

Chapter 185 Depressing Atmosphere

Rencai lives in a very traditional family. People generally think that things like family rules only exist in large families with a long history. Ordinary families just have some family customs.

Ninai's father, Icera Muneo, was a man who received a traditional education. He liked this kind of regular life, but this was incompatible with Ninai's ideas.

It was already 9pm when Asagi stood in front of Nina's house. They had to get off the bus in Kumamoto and take other means of transportation to get to Nina's house.

Iinori Ryone walked in front, and Nina followed behind with her head lowered. Asagi walked side by side with Nina. My elder sister, Iinori Ryone, walked to the door and knocked gently.

"I am back."

Soon a middle-aged woman's voice sounded from inside the house.

"please wait for a moment."

The door opened, and a woman who looked about 49 years old walked out. She was only slightly surprised to see Jingqin Liangyin, as she had not expected Liangyin to come back so soon. But when she saw Jinna standing behind Jingqin Liangyin, the slight surprise on her face instantly turned into shock.

The woman covered her mouth with her hands in surprise, tears welling in her eyes. She was so excited that she couldn't express it in words, and she was even more surprised that Rencai had obeyed her sister and returned home.

"I'm back." Nina lowered her head, looking reserved. This look was strange, like a child who had done something wrong. Is Nina always like this at home? Asagi was a little confused, and he looked at his sister Iori Suzune. But Iori Suzune looked much more natural, as if Iori Suzune was the child of this family, while Nina looked more like she was picked up.

"Hello, Oh Basang." Asagi stepped forward and bowed to greet Nina's mother.

"Oh, who are you?" The woman was a little confused when she saw Asagi appear. She looked at her eldest daughter beside her in confusion.

"This is a friend of Nina's and a member of Nina's band, I think. He came back with her because he was worried about her."

The woman quickly pulled her eldest daughter aside and asked in a low voice.

"Are we really just friends? It's not that kind of relationship."

“They said no.”

"You believe this?"

"I have no evidence."

The mother and daughter were talking quietly to each other. Jing Qinzong, who was in the room, saw that his wife had not come in for a long time and became suspicious. He got up and walked out of the room.

Jingqin Zongnan came outside and saw Jingqin Liangyin and her daughter Jingqin Renna, and just said calmly,

"come in."

Asagi saw only a serious and unsmiling expression on the father's face. It seemed that the father was not very good at communicating with his daughters.

Jingqin Ryoune and Nina walked in, and Nina's mother greeted Asagi.

"Excuse me." Asagi said softly.

The living room of Jina's house is not very big, at least it looks a bit crowded to Asagi. There is a partition on the side of the living room, which is separated by a sliding door.

Asagi followed them in obediently. Nina's father felt something was wrong today. He turned around and suddenly saw a strange figure, Asagi. Iqin Muneo's face suddenly froze, and he tried hard to think about who Asagi was.

Their family had rules, and boys were rarely allowed to enter their home. His eldest daughter was always obedient, so he didn't have to worry about her. His youngest daughter, Renai, had a stubborn personality, but she didn't have any friends of the opposite sex.

"Who is this?" Jingqin Muneo pointed at Asagi and asked.

"This is Nina's friend," Nina's mother replied. Asagi bowed slightly to Icera Muneo, expressing his apology for disturbing her.

Iqin Muneo nodded, but Asagi knew that hell would come after dinner, and he had to have a long talk with the adult in front of him.

At dinner, Asagi was arranged to sit with Nina, Iori Muneo sat alone on one side, and Iori Ryon and Nina's mother sat opposite. Asagi was a little nervous. Nina's father suddenly attacked at the table, and he was a little uneasy.

Everyone was very quiet at the dinner table, their heads bowed, their mouths drooping as they ate their food. Asagi looked up and accidentally saw the family rules on the wall: "Don't talk while eating!" Iqin Muneo sat there with dignity, and her older sister, Iqin Ryune, who had always seemed lively, became very well-behaved, and the talented person bowed her head and remained silent.

This atmosphere made Asagi feel a strong sense of pressure. Even eating a meal required such careful consideration. What kind of repressive family environment must this be? No wonder Nina developed such a fiery personality.

On the contrary, it was her elder sister Jingqin Ryone who Asagi looked at with surprise. Jingqin Ryone's ability to withstand pressure was really too strong, this kind of person was very powerful.

After dinner, it was time for Nina and Asagi's interrogation. Nina's father walked into a separate stall, dimly lit, seemingly unlit. Through the glass above the sliding door, Asagi saw him, his back to Nina, chain-smoking relentlessly. In just a moment, Asagi saw him chain-smoking several cigarettes in a row, with no sign of stopping.

"Tell me what you think." Renai's mother spoke on behalf of the father in the cubicle.

Asagi knew that this was a torture moment. Although Nina could get out of the house without her, Asagi still wanted to ease the situation in Nina's home.

"I'm in a band," Renai said, head down.

"band?"
