Do you like humans that much, Chihaya Aine?

　The cute little blonde girl jumped out from somewhere, her hands on her hips, smiling as always.

　"If you want, you can even go to space!"

　"The universe doesn't need it."

　Aine was terrified. Could the String Scroll Group, which possessed such technology, really be from Earth? It was truly terrifying to contemplate.

　"By the way, Senior Xin."

　"Why does the live show have to be held in the sky? Wouldn't it be more convenient on the ground?"

　Although Aiyin admitted that it was cool to hold a live performance on the sky stage, this kind of extravagance was like holding a live performance for a few people alone on a luxury cruise ship.

　Um...yes, kids, that's how kkr does it! Because that's what she actually did.

　"Of course it's to see Ultraman."

　"Eh?"

　Ai Ne was surprised, and Genmaki Kokoro continued to explain.

　"Because after each battle, Ultraman always

　It flew away into the sky, so Ultraman must be looking at the Earth from space."

　"As long as we fly to the sky and hold a live performance, Ultraman will definitely see us, and our singing will be heard by Ultraman."

　"This, this, this...this is too romantic!"

　Chihaya Aine originally wanted to say childish, but Genmaki Shin is just an innocent child who will never grow up. So what if she is full of innocence and childish dreams?

　"So everyone, please do your best and let our singing reach Ultraman."

　Xian Juanxin, a girl full of childlike innocence and fantasy, this is kkr, an eternally innocent child.

　The M78 band did not spend too much time rehearsing. The rehearsal was mainly for the preparation to adapt to the new stage. As long as they were familiar with it once or twice, there would basically be no problem.

　The live performance on the Sky Stage was scheduled for three days later. In fact, the live event took less than a week to hold. It can only be said that the efficiency of the Xianjuan Group is so terrifying.

　After the rehearsal, the members of the M78 band did not disband immediately. Instead, they took the agency's business car and went to the film and television base again.

　Because of the commotion caused by the Five Emperors last time, the MV for the M78 band was not completed, and the film and television base was closed for a few days for repairs. Now Aine and the others have to finish their work at the agency first.

　"Suddenly I feel like I'm busy as a member of society."

　"Are you busy? I have to balance my part-time job at RING and have free time."

　Part-time worker Riki had some objections, as Chihaya Aine clearly looked like she was idle all day long.

　"Teach me, drummer, teach me your time management skills."

　"There is no such thing, Captain Aine."

　The two chatted for a while, and soon they arrived at the film and television base to complete the shooting of the rest of the MV.

　This time, nothing unexpected happened. If aliens and monsters attacked again, even Aine wouldn't be able to handle it.

　The filming went quite smoothly and we didn’t have to stay up late to work overtime. By around five in the afternoon, the filming of the MV was completed.

　Now it was time for everyone to go home. Even the usually active Aine didn't clamor to invite everyone to dinner, because she was really exhausted after a busy day.

　But when they were disbanding and going home, Toyokawa Shoko called Chihaya Aine.

　"Chihaya Aine, how much do you know about Mu's affairs?"

　"Huh? Why are you asking me this all of a sudden?"

　"The last time we went to the Monster Friends Club, you, Chuhua, and I met Metis."

　Metron is not included in the list because she is an alien. Both Aine and Shoko know this very well, but Shoko does not know about Aine's side. She just thinks that Chihaya Aine is a girl full of curiosity, so she has heard more gossip.

　"I don't know much, Xiaoxiang, is there anything you want to tell me?"

　"No... not really."

　Toyokawa Shoko shook her head. If Chihaya Aine didn't know much, it would be better not to involve her. However, there was one thing she still had to tell Aine.

　"After that day, Chuhua rarely contacted me. This is very abnormal."

　"Isn't this normal? She's an idol, and she's usually so busy with work. They only contact each other when it's something important, right?"

　Aiyin felt very strange. Who would contact and greet each other all day long? Not everyone is Nagasaki Suyo.

　"But after that KTV party, Chuhua and I have been in touch every day, so Chuhua has been acting very abnormally recently."

　"It's you two who's not normal. You're too close."

　Aiyin didn't know where to start complaining, so she just continued to listen to Xiangzi.

　"I took the initiative to ask Chuhua if she had encountered any difficulties or troubles, but Chuhua didn't tell me. She said everything was fine and she was just a little busy with work."

　"Isn't this normal? Xiaoxiang, you're worrying too much."

　"But I asked Li Xi, Chu Hua has been completely absent-minded and worried at school recently. She must have encountered something that she is reluctant to talk about."

　"I thought about asking Lixi to help me find out about Chuhua's situation, but you know Lixi's language skills are a bit extreme."

　"But Chuhua has been actively avoiding me recently, so I'd like you to help investigate this situation and help me find out the reason."

　"OK! Leave it to me then."

　Hearing there was work to be done, legendary investigator Chihaya Aine was forced to take action.

　Mikado Hatsuka studies at Hanasakigawa and is a classmate of Riki and Hailing. Since Aine has helped Ms. Hatsuka before, she and Hatsuka do have some contact information.

　Aiyin originally wanted to send a message tonight to ask Chuhua if she was free and ask her out for a talk.

　But Aine was really too tired. Even the invincible Ultraman would collapse from exhaustion. It would be better for her to go home and rest early today.

　But why would Sanjiao Chuhua, who has such a good relationship with Toyokawa Shoko, actively avoid Shoko? It feels a bit strange.

　Volume 1: 115. Tickets to Sky Live

　The next day, the two of them met at a coffee shop. Aine took action today on what she had promised Toyokawa Shoko the night before. Her EX ability to take action is no joke.

　"Chuhua, here, here."

　Arriving at the agreed place in advance, Aine was dressed normally, but her upper body shape was a little subtle today, with some undulating curves on some parts that didn't exist.

　It seems that Hikawa Hina was broken down by the slander yesterday, and Aine seemed to have taken some time to prepare before going out today, which was perfect.

　"Aine, what do you want from me?"

　Chuhua was dressed in disguise as usual, with a black hat, mask and sunglasses. Last night, she received a message from Aine asking her out today, and she was a little confused.

　"Actually, it's about Xiaoxiang. You seem to have very little contact with her, and Lixi also said that you seem worried and listless. Xiaoxiang is very worried about you, so I asked for your help."

　Aiyin asked directly and to the point. It was not her style to be hesitant. Besides, Chuhua herself knew that her behavior had been strange recently.

　"Is that so... Xiaoxiang is really worried about me."

　Chuhua didn't know whether to be happy or worried. She had been deliberately avoiding Toyokawa Xiangzi recently. Xiangzi also took the initiative to ask about her, but Chuhua avoided the question with other topics.

　"Chuhua, have you run into any trouble? Tell us and we'll help you find a solution."

　"No...nothing."

　Ms. Chuhua refused to tell even Toyokawa Shoko, let alone explain it to Aine, but it was rare that Chihaya Aine took the initiative to ask her out, so Chuhua couldn't just avoid the topic.

　"Please don't worry, Xiaoxiang. I've just been a little busy lately. Maybe work has affected my mood."

　"So that's how it is. I'll tell Xiaoxiang."

　Aiyin lowered her head and took a sip of black tea. Her intuition told her that Chuhua was lying, but it was really rude to ask too many questions. Others also have their own privacy.

　"By the way, Chuhua, do you know about the Live on the Sky Stage?"

　"I know. Congratulations on having this opportunity to show your talents. Xiaoxiang must be very happy."

　"I can't say I'm happy. Chuhua, you know what happened recently. Xiaomu's matter gave Xiaoxiang a headache."

　When Aine turned the topic to Wakaba Mu, Sankaku Hatsuka suddenly fell silent.

　Aiyin immediately realized that Chuhua's recent strange behavior might have something to do with Xiaomu, so she asked tentatively.

　"Could it be that the little girl named Metis has come to see you?"

　"Did Metis look for you too?!"

　Ms. Chuhua was surprised. She never expected that Chihaya Aine would encounter the same thing as her.

　"Sure enough, I knew your attitude was weird, Chuhua."

　"Please, please don't tell Xiaoxiang about this. I don't want her to worry. She's already very sad."

　"Okay, I know."

　It is indeed not easy to tell Xiangzi about this matter. No wonder Sanjiao Chuhua avoided this matter. If Xiaoxiang knew about it, I am afraid Xiangzi would blame himself again.

　"Chuhua, what did Metis say to you?"

　"this..."

　Ms. Chuhua hesitated. It was obvious that what Metis had told her could not be explained to outsiders. She hadn't even told Xiaoxiang, let alone Aiyin.

　"Can I not tell you? This involves my privacy, but..."

　Ms. Chuhua thought about it and decided to tell Chihaya Aine the most important news because she felt that Aine was someone she could trust.

　"That being called Metis, her target is the Toyokawa family."

　"The Toyokawa family? That's unlikely."

　Chihaya Aine was stunned. Was Kirieloid really just playing house and pretending to be in Hidden? Shouldn't her goal be to conquer the world, rule over humanity, and defeat Ultraman like her?

　"I'm sorry, that's all I can tell you. I'm leaving now."

　Ms. Chuhua hurriedly got up and left. She was also very kind to help Aiyin pay the bill. Obviously, Chuhua couldn't reveal too much information.

　"Strange, then why would Metis say such a thing to Chuhua?"

　Aine felt even more confused and wondered whether she should consult the invincible external brain, Mefilas. She could only say that this evil alien was really useful and could easily get any news or intelligence.

　Chihaya Aine never hesitates to do what she thinks of. She asks first, but Mefilas's attitude is a little ambiguous.

　"Ms. Aine, I must keep this information confidential. After all, the Toyokawa family is my partner. Selling out information about my comrades is extremely disrespectful and immoral."

　"Huh? How come you are also connected to the Toyokawa family? Could it be that the true identity of the Toyokawa family is the universe?

　Human?

　"No, the Toyokawa family is just an Earthling consortium. However, my office was invested and opened by the Toyokawa family. You don't want to offend the major shareholder behind the scenes, do you?"

　"You think so highly of Earthlings? Tell me the truth, Mefilas, are you planning some strange scheme?"

　"Want to know the answer? Then I'll tell you after the Sky Stage Live is over."

　"Can't you just tell me now?"

　"No, the ritual before revealing the answer is essential. It's like reading a detective novel. Spoilers are a heinous crime."

　"ok, I get it."

　After Aine and Mefilas argued for a while, the matter came to nothing. Even though Mefilas was a bit mean, he wouldn't try to trick her, right? Maybe?

　The Sky Stage Live will be held in two days, so let's make the final preparations now.

　At Haneda Academy, Chihaya Aine is still a student. No matter whether she is performing on a world-class stage or transforming into Ultraman to fight monsters, she still has to go to school when it is time to go to school.

　"Aine, you guys are amazing! The M78 band is going to perform live on the Sky Stage, right?"

　"It's really amazing. We really want to go see it too."

　Aine's small group in school, the traffic light trio, showed envy and expectation to her, and Aine would not disappoint her good friends' expectations.

　"Hehe~ Then go and have a look. This is for you!"

　Chihaya Aine took out three special live tickets from her bag. They had a pink teddy bear with Michelle's pattern on them.

　"Aine? What is this?"

　"Tickets to Sky Stage Live."

　"Eh? Really? Are you really going to give it to us?!"

　"Yes, my dad has to go to work, and my mom asked me to give it to my friends, so I can only invite you guys."

　"But what about the lights? Don't you keep a ticket for the lights?"
