You are the first one to get into Triangle, then who am I?

Sakiko: Why do you have to apologize to me? Didn’t Crychic play well?

Sakiko: If you have anything to say, just say it here.

Seeing the message sent by Toyokawa Shoko, Nagasaki Suyo seemed to be able to imagine her standing in front of her with a cold face, using a ruthless tone to distinguish herself from everyone in Crychic.

When she thought of that scene, her nose couldn't help but feel sore, and she quickly typed a reply.

Nagasaki_Soyo: We weren’t originally going to play “Kasuga Shadow”. It wasn’t the second song we were supposed to play, and I didn’t want to play it myself.

Nagasaki_Soyo: Mikado Hatsuka started playing without my permission, and I really can't do anything about it...

Did the performance go wrong because of a last-minute change in the repertoire?

Seeing these two pieces of news, Shoko Toyokawa frowned slightly.

Although she didn't finish listening to Kasuga Kage and didn't know what went wrong with Nagasaki Suyo's performance, she was a little angry at the other party for only putting the blame on Sanka Hatsuka.

Especially when she was already in a bad mood, the message she sent out was a bit stingy.

Sakiko: Don't blame others, you are the one who needs practice the most.

Nagasaki Suyo stared at the short message on the mobile phone screen, her fingers trembling slightly.

Has Xiaoxiang been deceived so deeply? Even so, he doesn’t think it’s his fault!

Having "witnessed" Sanjiao Chuxia's methods, she was filled with grief, but the next piece of news rekindled her hope.

Sakiko: Let's gather tomorrow night at the training room that Crychic has been using. I have something to say to you.

Tomorrow is the last chance, Xiaoxiang must wake up!

………………

PS: Soyo got carried away when he saw Xiaoxiang running away, and didn’t realize that his guess actually had many loopholes (

ps2: This is the problem with sending messages. You can’t hear the tone across the screen.

ps2: Temporarily weaken the early summer state for a few chapters, and then this volume can be ended, and then let others (donuts, cucumbers) take the points

Chapter 71: Night of the Black Knife (?)

The evening sky was covered with thick dark clouds, as if a black curtain was pressing down on the city, making it difficult to breathe.

The air was filled with a damp chill mixed with the fishy smell of earth, as if even breathing had become sticky and heavy.

Inside the training room, everyone at Crychic had no intention of training at all, and the atmosphere was terribly heavy.

Shiina Riki looked at Takamatsu Deng who was curled up on the floor and couldn't help but sigh.

"Su Shi, are you sure Xiangzi will really come?"

"Xiaoxiang sent a message yesterday saying she would definitely come."

At this moment, Nagasaki Suyo was standing by the window, looking at the rain outside with some worry.

As long as Xiaoxiang comes to the training room, I will expose Xia's conspiracy. Once Xiaoxiang knows the truth, he will definitely return to Crychic again!

Not long after, the door of the training room was opened, and a girl with blue hair walked in from outside - it was Shoko Toyokawa who had finished her day's work.

As soon as she heard the sound of the door opening, Nagasaki Suyo immediately went to greet him.

"Xiaoxiang! Great, you're finally here."

"Well, here I come, Sushi."

Toyokawa Shoko nodded and looked around the training room, but found that Sanka Hatsuka and Wakaba Mutsu were not there.

Well, if Xia really sees me next time, I will still be a little shy.

So, Shoko Toyokawa walked to the big mirror, faced everyone in Crychic, clapped her hands, and drew their attention.

"I'm here to talk about something today." She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "I want to quit Crychic."

"Eh?"

"what?"

"Eh?"

Before coming here, Shoko Toyokawa had simulated this scene in her mind many times, and everyone's reaction was as she expected.

Next, Su Shi will probably ask me worriedly what happened...

"no!"

Nagasaki Suyo suddenly screamed, instantly disrupting the process she had planned in her mind.

"Xiaoxiang, you can't quit Crychic!" She grabbed Toyokawa Shoko's shoulders and looked into her golden eyes with a pleading look on her face.

"I finally exposed Xia's conspiracy and made him quit Crychic on his own. If even Xiaoxiang leaves Crychic, Watasi!"

Ever since she made up her mind to expose Mitsuka Hatsuka's "conspiracy" in front of everyone yesterday, Nagasaki Suyo's mind has been filled with his words "I want to quit Crychic" and his look of complete despair.

So when she heard Toyokawa Shoko say the same thing as Sanka Hatsuka, she immediately became nervous.

However, after hearing what Nagasaki Suyo said, Toyokawa Shoko's face instantly turned cold.

"Xia's conspiracy?"

"Sankaku-san deliberately played Kasuga Kage to make you cry and run away. His gentleness was all an act. He joined Crychic from the beginning just to make you quit the band so that he could have you all to himself... That's what Sushi said yesterday."

Shiina Riki took the opportunity to repeat what Nagasaki Suyo said yesterday.

In fact, yesterday after Nagasaki Suyo left with Bess, a blonde girl who looked very similar to Sanka Hatsuka came to the backstage and found them, and explained to them the reason why Toyokawa Shoko left.

Thanks to the blonde girl's explanation, Takamatsu Deng felt a little better. Otherwise, she might not have been seen in the training room today. (Floor lamp.jpg)

After returning home, Shiina Riki didn't tell Nagasaki Motoyo about this incident. She was also a little worried that she wouldn't see him in the training room today. (Nagasaki's passing.jpg)

"How could Xia have such a purpose!"

Besides, even if I don't do this, I feel no different from being monopolized these days.

Toyokawa Shoko even hoped that Sanka Hatsuka would take the initiative towards her.

"But, after you talked with Xia that day, you never came to training again..."

"That's because something happened suddenly at my home, and I forgot to tell you before I left." She shook her head helplessly.

"Mikanaka said the same thing at the time," Shiina Riki added.

Nagasaki Suyo's heartbeat became rapid, and her chest seemed to be pressed down by something, making it difficult for her to breathe.

The scene of Sanjiao Chuxia leaving kept replaying in her mind, and a strong sense of guilt and pain surged in her heart.

"Then Xiangzi, why did you quit Crychic today?"

"This is also related to what I said before about what happened at home."

——Ms. Toyokawa Shoko selectively reveals everything——

"So from now on, I am no longer the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa family. I need to study and work hard for my life."

No longer clinging to that pathetic and meaningless self-esteem, Toyokawa Shoko smiled with relief.

"So... Xiaoxiang isn't coming to practice... isn't it because I didn't sing well..."

The single-threaded Deng Takamatsu only noticed this incident, which was also what she cared about most.

"Of course not, Xiao Deng."

Shoko Toyokawa walked up to her and squatted down, her tone very gentle.

"I've always thought you sang really well, Xiao Deng. And in this live performance, I'm sincerely happy for your huge improvement, not only in your singing skills, but also in your courage."

At this point, I can't really say that my absences from training were largely due to a quarrel...

"Thank you, Xiaoxiang."

Toyokawa Shoko gently patted Takamatsu Deng's shoulder with a gentle smile on her face, but a trace of imperceptible loneliness flashed in her eyes.

She stood up and glanced at everyone present again - Takamatsu Deng, Shiina Riki, Nagasaki Suyo, and Wakaba Mutsu who was not present.

"I'm really happy to have spent this time with you all, I'm not going to lie. But today, my time as Crychic's keyboardist comes to an end..."

Toyokawa Shoko's voice was low and calm, yet it carried a resoluteness that could not be ignored. Her gaze lingered on each person's face for a moment, as if she wanted to imprint this moment deeply in her mind.

Takamatsu Deng's eyes were red and tears were welling up in them; Shiina Riki gripped the drumsticks tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force; Nagasaki Suyo lowered her head, her face pale, her lips trembling slightly, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't make a sound.

“Xiaoxiang…”┭┮﹏┭┮

"Xiangzi..."

"Xiao Xiang, please... don't go..." Nagasaki Suyo suddenly hugged Toyokawa Shoko's arms, her voice choked with sobs, "I've already lost Xia... I can't lose you again!"

"How long are you going to make trouble?"

Shiina Riki walked straight to Nagasaki Suyo and pulled up her collar.

"If you've done something wrong, go and apologize instead of crying here and trying to keep Xiangzi, who shouldn't be here, by this way!"

………………

ps: This chapter is set on Sunday, and Chuxia and Xiaoxiang work at Leblanc from Monday to Friday, so they did not meet face to face to resolve the misunderstanding.

ps2: The misunderstanding will be resolved soon! Now the main purpose is to let others gain some points, and then strengthen Soyo's future offensive (by the way, give a hat to Saki

Chapter 72: If I go home now, I will be discovered...

Shiina Riki walked straight to Nagasaki Suyo and pulled up her collar.

"If you've done something wrong, go and apologize instead of crying here and trying to keep Xiangzi, who shouldn't be here, by this way!"

"But, I really..."

"Suyo." Toyokawa Shoko broke free from her hand and sighed softly, "My decision to leave Crychic will not change. There's no need to beg anymore."

She still couldn't bear to see Nagasaki Suyo like this, but if her attitude was not firm enough at this time, it would only make the other party have unrealistic hopes.

What's more, Nagasaki Suyo also angered Sanka Hatsuka and left.

"Even though I've quit Crychic, we're still friends, right? Sushi, if you miss me, you can send me a message like you did last night."

"Oh, but sometimes I'm busy with work and may not be able to reply in time."

The once noble young lady has now become an ordinary girl who has to struggle for life.

Nagasaki Suyota wanted to give up her own money so that Toyokawa Shoko could stay and form a band with everyone else instead of working. But if she really did that, then their friendship would be truly over.

"That's all. Lixi, take care of everyone."

Crychic can continue to operate without me. I hope they can find new teammates.

After saying that, Toyokawa Shoko turned and walked towards the door, her steps firm and resolute. Nagasaki Suyo subconsciously wanted to grab her hand again, but finally stopped.

"click"

The door to the training room was closed.

The room fell into deathly silence, with only the sobs of Nagasaki Suyo and Takamatsu Deng echoing in the air.

Downstairs, Shoko Toyokawa opened her umbrella and looked back at the glass window of the training room, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

"Goodbye, everyone." She murmured softly, her voice almost drowned out by the sound of rain.

Shoko Toyokawa turned around and walked into the rain. Her back looked so thin in the rain.

(On the way back, Xiaoxiang remembered that Xia and Mu were not there at the same time: That’s not right!)

………………

"So, Xiaoxiang ran out crying because her father was taken to the police station for drinking?"

The light appeared in Sanjiao Chuxia's eyes again.

Although it was not something to be happy about, at least he knew that Toyokawa Shoko ran out crying not because of his sudden performance of "Kasuga Shadow".

"That's right." Sanjiao Chuhua nodded at him. "I wanted to go find you guys to explain later, but I found that you were not in the lounge."

She waited in the Crychic lounge for a long time, and when she found that no one had come back, she went backstage to look for everyone. However, at that time, only Shiina Tatsuki, Takamatsu Teru and Wakaba Mutsu were left.

"Really? Xiaochu, you wouldn't lie to comfort me, would you?"
