Girl idols are meant to be exploited!

"Here, this is freshly shot."

Taku Hoshikawa did not waste the remaining shots and shot down another panda doll.

"Who is this for?"

Yidizhi Xingge frowned slightly and asked with a hint of doubt.

"This was won with your money, so of course it's a gift for you."

Hoshikawa Taku said matter-of-factly.

“…For me?”

Yidizhi Xingge was slightly startled.

She didn't expect that she would also receive a gift. Her heart beat inexplicably faster and her fingertips curled up slightly.

She really wanted to accept it, but her personality made it difficult for her to accept this gift calmly.

In the end, she took the panda doll and said, "Okay, then, consider this a gift for Hongxia. I'll take it and give it to her later."

Although she said this, Hoshikawa Taku noticed that her hands were tightly holding the doll and she didn't seem to want to let go at all.

Hoshikawa Taku laughed in his heart but did not expose her.

After playing with air rifles in the haunted house, the relationship between the two seemed to have quietly become closer.

In the following time, Hoshikawa Taku and Ijichi Hoshika participated in several classroom activities together.

Originally, Hoshikawa Taku thought that this kind of cultural festival had nothing to do with him, but in the process of accompanying Ijichi Hoshika, he gradually became interested in it and enjoyed the atmosphere of the festival.

It turns out that the reason he felt bored was because he lacked a companion.

Ijichi Xingge's mood also gradually changed from boredom at the beginning to joy. After following Hoshikawa Taku around the teaching building, he went outdoors again, tasting various snacks and experiencing various small games arranged on the spot.

She seemed to have returned to the time when she was in college a few years ago, a carefree time when she felt happy no matter what stupid things she did.

Holding takoyaki and tempura in hand, after taking a bite, Ijichi Hoshige sighed: "This cultural festival was actually quite good. The reason it was boring was because I didn't have the mood before."

She paused, turned her head and looked at Hoshikawa Taku, and said in a slow tone: "Hoshikawa, thank you for accompanying me. Otherwise, I would have been bored staying in school until the band started performing."

As she spoke, she brought a string of fried food to Taku Hoshikawa's mouth, and Taku Hoshikawa didn't hesitate and took a bite.

This is how the two of them ate each other along the way.

Hoshikawa Taku was a little surprised that Ijichi Hoshige actually thanked him so sincerely, which showed that she really enjoyed the time they spent together.

After a quick thought, Hoshikawa Takuya, holding two cold drinks in his hands, smiled and responded: "I want to thank you too, otherwise I wouldn't have any fun either."

"I originally thought the world was boring, but actually it's just me who's become boring. If there's a similar event next time, would you like to come out and hang out with me?"

Yidizhi Xingge was slightly startled.

Her heart beat uncontrollably faster as she tried hard to think about the meaning of this sentence.

What does Taku Hoshikawa's invitation mean? Is it a "date"?

Is he treating me as a "partner" to have fun with, or is he trying to give me further "hints"?

While she was thinking, Taku Hoshikawa put the cold drink to her lips, and she subconsciously leaned over and took a sip.

During the time that Ijichi Hoshige and Hoshikawa Taku were together, she felt that the two got along very well. She was happy every minute and there was not a single boring moment.

She is not a young girl anymore, so she can naturally feel her "good feelings" for Taku Hoshikawa, and she hopes that their relationship can go further.

If she were a few years younger, she would definitely choose to confess without hesitation, even if there was no way to go further, she would not hesitate.

But... she is almost thirty now, and she no longer has the decisiveness of her youth.

She began to hesitate, worried that she might have misunderstood him, worried that he didn't really have that intention...

In the end, Ijichi Hoshige gave a very ambiguous answer.

"…if there's a chance."

This sentence is neither proactive nor exclusive, it is just a polite remark.

Just like saying "I'll treat you to dinner later", if the other party doesn't bring it up again, there will basically be no follow-up.

Ijichi Hoshige wanted to "escape", but Hoshikawa Taku didn't give her a chance.

"Xingge, the opportunity is now."

He decisively invited her, "There's an open-air music festival in a week. A band I'm in charge of will be participating, and I'll be there. If you're free, would you like to come?"

What Taku Hoshikawa said was really a complete "straight shot".

Since she doesn't take the initiative, I'll take the initiative myself.

Hoshikawa Takuya is looking forward to the opportunity to take his relationship with her to the next level.

Yidizhi Xingge's heart was pounding, and she also realized that maybe her wishful thinking was not just one-sided...

She clenched the panda doll, took a deep breath, and finally nodded slowly.

"...Yes, I do."

Chapter 132: How many female singers are there in the band circle?

"You're so slow... Mr. Hoshikawa said he would gather at the gym. Why hasn't he come yet?"

Aine looked down at the time again anxiously.

Aine and Satoshi have already met up with Lupa and Hiroi at the gymnasium, and the band's performance will be held there in a while.

When they met, she told Taku Hoshikawa the news, and he replied, "I'll come over after shopping for a while."

However, more than an hour has passed, and I didn't expect to see him yet.

Mr. Hoshikawa doesn't have such a bad sense of time that he would miss Pochi's performance, right?

Hiroi Kikuri, who was sitting next to her, was not anxious at all. While drinking the beer she had bought with Hoshikawa Taku's money, she said nonchalantly, "Relax, there's still some time, right? As long as it's before the performance, right?"

"But if you arrive late, you might not be able to get a front row seat..."

The stadium is the highlight of the show, with performances taking place on stage all day long.

A drama club performance is currently going on on the stage. The audience isn't large, but it isn't small either. There are already three or four hundred people gathered here, and the flow of people is still increasing.

Aine was worried that if Hoshikawa Taku arrived too late, he wouldn't be able to get a front row seat to cheer for Pochi.

Xiaozhi pushed his glasses up and calmly analyzed, "Actually, I don't think you need to worry about this at all. The drama club's performance is very attractive, with both sound and color. After their performance is over, many people will leave."

"Pochi and the others' closing band isn't very famous. I think what we should be worried about isn't that we can't get to the front row, but that there won't be any more audience members outside of the front row."

The corners of Aiyin's mouth twitched, and she smiled bitterly: "Xiaozhi, you are too unconfident about ending the band, aren't you?"

"I'm talking about the dilemma that most new bands will encounter. The first show that Lupa's band and I played was like this. Maybe now that it's a cultural festival, there will be more audiences, but not much more."

"unless……"

Ash paused, "Pochi uses the 'Tuba' from Guitar Hero."

A band that is popular and a band that is not popular are two completely different things.

Although Xiaozhi's words were cruel, they were also true.

As they were talking, Aine glanced out of the corner of her eye and finally saw Hoshikawa Taku walking into the gymnasium.

She breathed a sigh of relief and was about to wave and say hello, but she found that there was a blonde girl following Hoshikawa Taku.

The two of them had a great conversation, smiling brightly, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. They looked as close as a couple.

"……what?"

Aiyin couldn't help but put down her hand and asked curiously, "Why is there a girl with Mr. Hoshikawa? Could she be his girlfriend?"

Hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look.

Hiroi Kikuri had the biggest reaction. Her face changed and she quickly put down the beer in her hand and turned to look.

When she saw the "blonde girl", her eyes instantly changed from worry to relief, and then she smiled broadly and said:

"Don't worry, that person is the owner of the [Starry Sky] Performance Hall, Hong Xia's sister! She can't be Xingchuan's girlfriend!"

"Why isn't it possible?"

Aine was curious.

"Hoshikawa Taku and her have only met a few times. The two of them have only spent less than a few days together. It must be a coincidence that they came here together."

"Besides, that Ijichi Hoshige is a sister complex. She's completely focused on cultivating Hong Xia and running the Fanxing Livehouse all by herself. She doesn't have the energy to find a boyfriend!"

After saying this, Hiroi Kikuri lowered her voice and said mysteriously:

"If she wanted to find a boyfriend, she would have done so a long time ago, but she's almost 30 and still doesn't have one. Rumor has it that her sexual orientation might be a little different from the average person... She and the sound engineer at the store are very close, so it's very likely that they're in that kind of relationship..."

"This isn't just my speculation, but it's something everyone in our circle is spreading. You can easily find out about it!"

After speaking, Kikuri Hiroi also made a clarification statement.

There is no evidence to support what Hiroi Kikuri said, but this rumor is actually quite widespread in their band circle.

After all, Ijichi Xingge is a standard beauty. If she wanted to find a boyfriend, she would have found one long ago, but she has been single until now.

The most likely possibility is that she likes to "play with women".

Of course, Hiroi Kikuri had a lot of contact with Ijichi Hoshika, and she knew that this was most likely a "fake medicine."

The reason why Ijichi Xingge doesn't find a boyfriend is largely because she wants to take care of Hongxia and is worried that she is not taking good care of her.

But...it's hard to say whether it's true or not?

After all, there are quite a lot of female singers in the band circle, and she can't say for sure.

Aiyin looked at the two of them again with a half-believing and half-doubting feeling, but no matter how she looked at it, she still felt that the atmosphere between them was quite ambiguous, not like that of ordinary friends.

However, after all, I am not familiar with Ijichi Hoshika, and since her old acquaintance Hiroi Kikuri has said so confidently, I should not make random guesses.

Maybe they are just good friends.

She didn't think any more and waved towards Xingchuan Taku: "Mr. Xingchuan, here, here!"

Hoshikawa Taku also noticed a few people at this time. He asked Ichichi Xingge: "They are my friends who came with me. Do you want to go over and say hello with me?"

Ichichi Xingge took a look and found that they were all girls, and frowned slightly.

She shook her head gently: "Forget it, except for that guy Guangjing, I don't know the rest of them. I'm going to the backstage to find Hongxia and the others. If you want to see me, come find me backstage."

"Well, I'll be there. See you later."

Holding the panda doll and the Notsuchi snake, Ijichi Seika walked towards the backstage.

Hoshikawa Taku separated from her and came to Hiroi and the others.

Aiyin couldn't wait to get closer to Hoshikawa Taku, her eyes gleaming with curiosity. She asked eagerly, "Mr. Hoshikawa, what is your relationship with that person just now?"

Although Hiroi Kikuri said with certainty that the two of them could not be boyfriend and girlfriend, Aine was still very curious and wanted to hear Hoshikawa Taku's personal response.

"We're just friends. I ran into her in the teaching building and followed her here. The band's leader, Hong Xia, is her sister."

Hoshikawa Taku downplayed what happened between the two of them, as if they were just casual acquaintances.

"I'll just say it!"

Hiroi Kikuri said very proudly, "You still don't believe me!"

"what did you say?"

Aine was about to speak when Hiroi quickly covered her mouth: "No, I didn't say anything!"

It would be fine if she told the story of Ichichi Hoshika in private, but if Hoshikawa Taku informed on her and brought the matter to Ichichi Hoshika, she would definitely be "retaliated"!

"Hiroi-senpai didn't say anything, he just introduced Ichichi Seika's identity."

Aiyin also understands the ways of the world and knows what to say and what not to say.

Hiroi breathed a sigh of relief; she almost lost her source of income.

"You really didn't say anything?"

Hoshikawa Taku was a little unconvinced and stared at Hiroi Kikuri.

"It's nothing really, we were actually talking about ending the band's show!"

Hiroi quickly changed the subject, "The band isn't very popular after it ends, what if there are no audiences?"
