Band heavy girl? Please stay away from me

Toyokawa Shoko was about to continue, but she suddenly remembered that her original purpose was to ask Mashiro for advice on how to invite Rin to join her band...

So, if I were to invite Lin to join the band right now, what would be the chances of success?

If you use coercion and inducement, maybe the price will be quite high?

but!

Even if Shimizu Rin might agree, it would only be out of pity for her.

This does not reflect one's own awareness at all.

If Xiangzi's awareness can only lead to wrong answers like last time...

If Rin rejected my invitation and broke off our friendship...

Toyokawa Shoko never wanted to see such a tragic future...

No!

Don't be impulsive now!

Before I've made sufficient preparations and tried my best, I must not be so frivolous and rash as to invite Rin to join the band.

At least......

At least come up with a plan that is sure to succeed!

I must let Lin see my own enlightenment!

The determination not to lose to anyone!!!

Toyokawa Shoko thought so.

Her eyes became more resolute, her hollow voice gradually improved, and her whole person seemed to be injected with new vitality and looked brand new.

"I wanted to know more about Rin, so I asked Mashiro-senpai about her family situation. And so I...learned about Rin's past."

"I'm sorry! Rin, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have been so irresponsible as to confine Rin to CRYCHIC!"

Shoko Toyokawa became more and more excited as she spoke. She subconsciously wiped all the dust off her palms with the hem of her skirt, and then excitedly held Rin's sweet and soft little hands.

The sudden apology obviously caught Rin off guard.

Could it be that...sorry, taking the initiative has become a popular term nowadays?

but.

Shimizu Rin thought about the apology that Toyokawa Shoko had just said, and her expression remained calm.

It was as if everything Xiangzi said had nothing to do with her.

It was exactly the opposite of what Xiangzi thought.

Since Rin Shimizu is already a mature guitarist with rich experience, and the combined age of her two lives is far greater than that of Xiangzi, she naturally doesn't care about CRYCHIC's past.

If she just stagnates, is trapped by memories of the past, refuses to face her own shortcomings, and shirks responsibility, then how can she pursue her guitar dream?

Ideals cannot be realized just by talking about them!

So, Shimizu Rin nodded slightly, accepting Toyokawa Shoko's apology:

"Well, I see."

After all, Shimizu Rin is an outsider who traveled through time and space, and she is mature in mind, unlike Nagasaki Soyo who wants to resurrect CRYCHIC.

Even though there had been wrong decisions before, it was far from enough to break Lin's determination.

For Rin Shimizu, perhaps she had already completely let go of this short-lived band in her heart as early as the day she left CRYCHIC.

No memories of CRYCHIC could shake Shimizu Rin's will, whether good or bad.

Guitar, Rin is serious!

"How can it be okay?... It's obviously because of me that Rin..."

Toyokawa Shoko muttered to herself in astonishment.

The confusion in her golden eyes grew more intense, and the girl looked dazed, like a broken doll.

At first, Xiangzi had thought that Lin might not accept her apology. On the contrary, she had fully anticipated it.

Rin might get angry and even stop paying attention to herself as an irresponsible bastard.

But what's going on now?

Even if Lin had just slapped me hard in the face, or insulted me in any way, I could have endured it!

Accepting my apology so graciously...

So... Rin doesn't care about me at all?

"Boom."

Shoko Toyokawa fell to her knees weakly, but her hands still refused to let go.

He tightly grasped Shimizu Rin's right hand, trying his best to retain the unmoved white-haired guitarist.

This situation...seems familiar?

Qing Shui Lin seemed to see a flaxen figure in a trance.

Xiangzi's actions at this time were exactly the same as that man's, and his expression was even worse.

And Toyokawa Shoko, who was kneeling on the ground, no longer cared about her messy cheeks and hair. There was only a dazzling pure white left in the world.

Even the moon needs the sun's light, not to mention that she is no longer the moon, but a homeless junior high school girl...

"Don't go! Please!"

"what?"

Familiar words will eventually be inherited by someone.

Shimizu Rin didn't know why Xiangzi suddenly knelt down. In her eyes, she had already accepted Xiangzi's apology - in this case, Xiangzi's emotions should have eased, so why did he suddenly break down and kneel down?

So what should I do next?

The white-haired girl's ears were buzzing, and her confused thoughts made it impossible for her to calm down and think.

The situation is becoming increasingly chaotic.

Rin Shimizu had no choice but to try to help Shoko Toyokawa, who was kneeling on the ground, up from the rooftop floor.

"not like this......"

"Xiangzi, get up from the ground first."

But after Shimizu Rin tried hard, she was surprised to find that she couldn't even help Toyokawa Shoko up.

Xiangzi had been crying for a long time, so he should have run out of strength long ago.

Besides, this isn't Asukayama Park, so Xiangzi shouldn't have any special bonuses, right?

"I'm not leaving. Xiangzi, can you get up from the ground first?"

Qing Shui Lin said helplessly.

She didn't expect that during her lunch break today she would have such an unprecedented experience.

The girl already had the urge to pick up her guitar and run away.

If this continues, something will definitely happen!

It seems...I need to resolve this confusing situation before Xiangzi utters those classic quotes.

"If Xiangzi doesn't get up, I don't think there's any need for us to meet in the future."

"..."

Shoko Toyokawa stood up silently without hesitation for a moment. She did not dare to take any possible risks in this regard.

Followed by.

Xiangzi lowered his head like a child who had made a mistake.

The tangled blue hair made it impossible for Qing Shui Lin to see her expression.

Qing Shui Lin couldn't remember how many times he had seen this dejected and distracted look...

Fortunately, Xiangzi didn't cry, otherwise it would only make things more difficult and troublesome for Lin. He comforted her softly:

"I never meant to blame Xiangzi... But can you tell me why Xiangzi felt it was all your fault?"

Perhaps the intimidation just now worked, or perhaps Xiang girl's consciousness returned to a higher level in her mind.

Shoko Toyokawa's behavior finally became much more normal, and she no longer imitated the unexpected style of a certain great bassist.

Then, Toyokawa Shoko told Shimizu Rin everything she had learned from Mashiro - since the senior was willing to tell her this, Rin should not mind, right?

In addition, Xiangzi did not choose to relay Mashiro's last few words asking about Xiangzi's enlightenment to Rin.

As she had thought before, Xiangzi planned to wait for a suitable opportunity in the future, make sufficient preparations, and then invite Lin to join the band to prove her awareness.

Qing Shui Lin had sorted out the cause and effect of the matter at this point, and smiled with relief, like a breeze blowing into the girl's heartstrings, like a spring breeze:

"No, Xiangzi, it's actually no big deal."

"I chose to join the band myself, so I naturally have to bear the risks associated with that choice."

Toyokawa Shoko shook her head in frustration: "But if I hadn't..."

"Shoko, I, and everyone at CRYCHIC, these things, no one could have predicted, right?"

"The disbanding of CRYCHIC simply means that we are not suitable to form a band together in the future. It has no other derivative meaning."

Without giving Toyokawa Shoko a chance to refute herself, Shimizu Rin continued her story:

"Maybe I regretted joining CRYCHIC, but! I really had fun playing guitar with everyone. I...maybe I just couldn't stand CRYCHIC's attitude towards music and chose to leave the band."

"As for my family...it's no longer important. The time to be sad is long gone."

"Haven't I come all this way safely now? Am I not still living a wonderful life?"

"You should decide your own life, don't you, Xiangzi?"

The golden sunlight of the midday sun tilted down and fell on the white-haired girl's head as if by fate, lifting up a layer of golden and shining coat.

A touch of pure white sparkles against the backdrop of sunlight.

Standing next to the white-haired girl.

Shoko Toyokawa forgot her past troubles. She stood there blankly, trying to remember the precious scene in her eyes for the rest of her life.

After a long while, Xiangzi spoke quietly:

"I...yes, that's what it should be."

Qing Shui Lin nodded when he heard this: "That's good."

Later, the white-haired girl in the sunlight smiled and looked at Xiangzi, who had a complicated expression in front of her.

As always, she stretched out her fair and tender hand:

"There's still some time. Xiangzi, have you had lunch?"

"Ate."

"How about listening to me play a song?"

"it is good......"

Faced with Lin's invitation, Xiangzi could no longer refuse.

At this moment, Xiangzi may care more about this shining white-haired guitarist than Xiao Gudu.

......

......

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye it was time for Tsuki no Mori to finish school.

Apart from the unexpected encounter with the crying Xiaoxiang during lunch break on the rooftop, nothing else happened to Shimizu Rin today.

And she spent her breaks quietly arranging music.

I estimate that in two days, the final arrangement of Subtitle will be completed.

The future is expected!
