She had originally thought that Su Shi was just angry for a moment and would return after a couple of days when his emotions had calmed down. But his current silence and lack of contact seemed like a resolute decision, giving her a bad feeling.

"For Su Shi, 'Spring Shadow' may be very important. Since we can't wait for her, let's take the initiative to go to her house to find her and bring her back."

Aine raised her head and asked Shiina Ritsuki, who seemed to be the most familiar with Suye, "Ritsuki, do you know where Suye's home is?"

Li Xi glanced at her and shook his head.

"do not know."

"Huh? I thought you two were really good friends, you really don't know..."

Aine said in surprise.

Li Xi said calmly, "Although we've known each other for a long time, we've only met at RING. We haven't gotten close enough to visit each other's homes. I only know that she goes to school at Yue Zhisen."

"Moon Forest..."

Aine stroked her chin thoughtfully, then suddenly her eyes lit up and she clapped her hands and said, "Okay, then let's meet at the entrance of Tsuki no Mori after school tomorrow. We must catch Suyo!"

Li Xi was dumbfounded and said, "Are you serious? This person goes to an aristocratic school. If you squat at the school gate, be careful that the security guards will think you are a suspicious person and chase you away!"

"We have to try at least. Without her bass in the band, our practice hasn't made any progress. We can't keep wasting our time in the practice room like this, can we?"

Shiina Riki thought about it and finally nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then let's meet at the entrance of Tsuki no Mori after school tomorrow. I know someone in Tsuki no Mori who should be able to help us..."

Before she finished her words, the door of the practice room was pushed open with a click.

Everyone was stunned and turned around to look - the person they were just talking about actually appeared at this moment.

Nagasaki Suyo just stood quietly at the door, but... her usual gentle smile was gone, and her eyes were calm, almost indifferent.

Aine didn't think much about it. Her eyes lit up and she ran over and stood in front of her with a happy face.

"Su Shi, great! You're finally here! You haven't come yet, and you didn't reply to our messages... We were all so worried about you!"

Su Shi glanced at her calmly, then looked around at everyone and said slowly:

"I came here today to talk about something."

"I want to—quit Mygo."

As soon as the words fell, the practice room fell into a brief silence.

Su Shi hadn't been here for such a long time, and when he came, he immediately said he wanted to quit...

Gao Songdeng stared at Su Shi in a daze, as if something had occurred to her mind. Her body trembled slightly, as if a nerve had been hit.

When Shiina Riki saw Deng's pale face, she frowned instantly, her face darkened, and she took two steps forward and grabbed Su Shi's collar.

She said coldly, "Su Shi, what do you mean by this? There should be a limit to joking!"

"Wait, calm down!"

Aiyin quickly grabbed Riki's arm and forcibly pulled the two apart, trying to defuse the current tension. "Everyone...can you all just talk it out first?"

Su Shi straightened his tangled collar, his expression still cold: "It's exactly what I said. I'm quitting Mygo. It's your freedom to continue forming a band. I'm not going to be involved anymore."

"Why... why did you suddenly stop forming a band? Is it because we sang 'Haruhi Shadow'?"

Gao Songdeng's voice trembled as he carefully apologized to Su Shi, "Su Shi, I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have sung that song. I will make it up to you, so please don't leave, okay..."

"Deng, you did nothing wrong, you don't need to apologize!"

Shiina Riki looked at Nagasaki Suyo with a cold expression and said in a deep voice, "Is it because Xiangzi didn't want to come back that you felt there was no point in forming this band and decided to leave?"

"……You can say that."

Su Shi glanced at his face and said lightly.

"Eh? Xiangzi...what does this have to do with Xiangzi? What do you mean by 'Xiangzi doesn't want to come back'?"

Aine was still confused at this moment and didn’t understand what they were saying at all.

"Su Shi, didn't you agree with everyone to form a lifelong band? We..."

Deng was unwilling to give up and still wanted to keep her, however, Li Xi had also broken up with Su Shi at this moment, which directly interrupted her fantasy.

"That vow was a lie! From the very beginning, Su Shi never thought about forming a new band!"

She pointed at Su Shi and raised her voice, "Everything she did was to revive CRYCHIC!"

"This girl said that Aine and Lenai were unwanted. She used you to keep Deng and me. She was going to let Xiangzi and Xiaomu come back and kick you two unnecessary outsiders out!"

The air seemed to be frozen.

Aiyin's eyes widened, and the words Su Shi had said to her flashed through her mind:

"Can we start over and reunite as a band? Me, Xiao Deng... and Li Xi."

Aine understood everything.

Ah, from the very beginning, I was not included.

At that time, Su Shi was talking about "reorganizing" the band, not forming a new band.

Gao Songdeng was very surprised. No one had ever said such words to her.

"Lixi...are you and Sushi aware of this matter?"

She confirmed with a trembling voice, "Why didn't you tell me?"

Li Xi avoided Gao Songdeng's sight with some guilt, and whispered: "Su Shi told me privately that after Xiangzi comes back, we can reorganize CRYCHIC. I know you miss Xiangzi very much, so I didn't refuse her, but I didn't expect..."

Li Xi paused, then suddenly turned and glared at Su Shi, "I didn't expect she only had eyes for Toyokawa Shoko! Now that she sees Shoko isn't coming back, she's not planning on reuniting the band!"

"That is to say, in her heart, we are not important at all. We are just tools she uses to bring Xiangzi back!"

"..."

Nagasaki Suyo's eyes moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but she did not defend herself at this moment.

"Whatever you say, it's fine. Anyway... I'm quitting the band."

After she finished speaking, she turned and left without any intention of staying.

"and many more--"

Gao Songdeng reached out his hand to chase after him, but was blocked by Li Xi.

"She can leave if she wants to."

Li Xi said in a deep voice, looking coldly at Su Shi's leaving back, "Anyway, her mind was not on the band from the beginning."

Li Xi turned around and gently held Gao Songdeng's shoulders.

"It doesn't matter. She's gone."

She tried to calm the atmosphere with a rational tone, forcing a faint smile as she consoled him, "Isn't it just that we're missing a bassist? I know a really good bassist. I can call her over, and we can still form a band..."

However, before she could finish her words, she noticed that Chihaya Aine had quietly walked to the corner of the practice room and squatted down to organize her bag and music folder.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Li Xi frowned, having a bad feeling.

Aiyin continued to pack her things without even turning her head, her tone carrying a sense of calmness that was more about mourning than despair.

"You don't need me anymore, right? If that's the case, there's no need for me to stay here."

“Aine…”

Takamatsu Deng opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but no sound came out. His throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he could only watch Aine's back.

Chihaya Aine stood up, put on her backpack, and walked towards the door of the practice room.

She did not rush to push the door open, but paused for a moment in front of the door, looked back at Gao Songdeng, and smiled calmly.

"I'm sorry. Actually, I don't want to force myself anymore."

She whispered her final goodbye.

The reason why Aine stayed in this band was because of her lifelong commitment to the Touma group and because of Nagasaki Suyo's friendly attitude.

However, now the promise is false, and Nagasaki Suyo's attitude towards her is also a disguise. She has been treated as a pawn to be kicked out from the very beginning of the plan.

In that case, she should obey their wishes and leave on her own initiative.

She no longer has any regrets about leaving the band.

Chihaya Aine turned and left. The breeze brought by the door swept through the practice room, making the air seem to be a little cold.

Gao Songdeng's eyes were still fixed on the door, his expression blank and his heart empty.

At this time, Kaname Lenai also stood up, put his guitar on his back and walked towards the door.

When she passed by Gao Songdeng, she stopped and a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

"...boring woman."

After saying that, she walked away.

Judging from her appearance, she probably won't come back.

In the blink of an eye, the practice room that originally had five people gathered now had only two people left.

The same scene, the same picture, the same plot appeared after the same performance, but she... still couldn't change the ending.

Gao Songdeng knelt weakly on the ground, and his knees hit the ground heavily with a dull sound.

She lowered her head, her shoulders trembling slightly, and tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes.

"It's like this again... That's why I don't want to reunite the band..."

Chapter 260: Our band has not disbanded!

"Huh? Sushi, you've already quit Mygo?"

When he received a call from Nagasaki Motoyo, Hoshikawa Taku was stunned for a moment.

He originally thought that Su Shi had not responded to him for a few days because after calming down and weighing the pros and cons, he still wanted to stay in Mygo, stay with Takamatsu Deng and Riki.

Unexpectedly, after thinking about it, she came to the conclusion that "I can't live without Xiaoxiang" and chose to quit decisively.

"I'm not kidding, I'm quitting Mygo."

Su Shi said calmly, "Li Xi had a falling out with me at the time and told me that I wanted to kick Aine and Lenai out."

"If nothing unexpected happens, there's a good chance that Aine has left as well."

Hoshikawa Taku wants Aine, Nagasaki Suyo wants Shoko, and the two of them trade with each other, each getting what they want.

"Your goal has been achieved. When can I team up with Xiangzi?"

Nagasaki Suyo urged.

Hoshikawa Taku said slowly, "Don't worry. I told you, Xiangzi's teammates haven't been found yet, so it's impossible for you and Xiangzi to team up alone."

Just when Su Shi thought that Taku Hoshikawa was deliberately writing her a bad check to delay time, Taku Hoshikawa changed the subject.

"But... I'm having a concert at the end of this month, and there's a band that needs a bassist and keyboardist to back me up."

"I already have a candidate for bassist, but if you insist... I'm not against replacing him with you."

What Taku Hoshikawa was talking about was naturally the band "Thornless".

Xiaozhi and Lupa are of course the best candidates. If they can get along well with Jinna, Momoka and the others, they can form a complete version of [Thornless].

But from recent observations, it seems that they are still obsessed with their old band [Extension Line] and are only here to help out for a short period of time. They have no plans to form a long-term band with Renai and the others.

In this case, the only thing we can do is to find support personnel for them.

Originally, Taku Hoshikawa's intended candidates were Shoko Toyokawa and the "legendary mercenary" Hachiman Kailing, and he had already made arrangements with Kailing in advance.

But if Su Shi really wants that position, then let her be the bassist.

Su Shi was of course extremely happy about this. She became excited and asked impatiently, "When does the concert start? I'll get ready now!"

"Don't worry, we won't be able to confirm until the end of this month. Until then, just wait patiently."

After comforting Su Shi, Hoshikawa Taku then called Aine.

He pretended to be clueless and said to Aine with his usual easygoing attitude, "Hey, Aine, Xiaozhi, Lupa, and Meowth all want to hold a celebration party for you. I wonder when you're free?"

On the other end of the phone, Chihaya Aine had just returned home.
