Band heavy girl? Please stay away from me

"That's not right. Since the friend Xiao Sushi mentioned has already left the band, she must have her reasons. Maybe she has some unspeakable secret."

"Let me ask again, does Xiao Sushi know why she left the band?"

"I don't know." Nagasaki Suyo shook her head dejectedly.

Whether it was Rin Shimizu or Shoko Toyokawa, Nagasaki Motoyo had no idea about the specific reasons why the two left the band, and simply attributed it to conflicts within the band.

The girl stubbornly wanted to resolve the conflict, but she couldn't see the road ahead clearly, and wandered around alone in a daze.

Kiritani Touko noticed the loss and confusion in Su Shi's eyes, sighed softly, and said with a gentle look:

"I don't know why my friend left the band, but blindly trying to keep her won't work. Not only will the situation not get better, on the contrary, it might even make Su Shi feel even more distant from her."

"Instead of continuing to ask such annoying questions, I think Xiao Sushi should normalize your relationship with your friend first. Put aside the band matter and just be friends living a normal life without having to think too much about it."

"Become normal friends?" Nagasaki Suyo murmured, with a hint of doubt on her face.

"But she and I knew each other because of the band... If it weren't for the band that brought us together, maybe I would have been stuck in the audience, looking up at her playing the guitar?"

If Toyokawa Shoko had not brought Nagasaki Suyo into the band CRYCHIC, Suyo might never have gotten to know Shimizu Rin, and the lives of the two girls would never have been connected.

"But what does it matter? Isn't Xiao Sushi acquainted with her now? So let me ask you, does Xiao Sushi want to get to know your friend better?"

"Of course I do!"

Without hesitation.

Nagasaki Suyo recalled her experiences and realized that life has warm tones after all, and the girl's warm tones are closely related to a white-haired man.

This tempted Su Shi to want to know more about Rin, not just the guitarist Shimizu Rin, but the real Shimizu Rin, nothing else.

"Wait until you understand her and know why she left the band, Xiao Sushi. Only then can you truly help her and resolve the conflicts in the band, right? If you don't try to solve her problems, how can she possibly change her mind?"

Toruko Kiritani patiently advised the girl. Although she could not understand the confusion of the girl in front of her, her method of resolving the conflict was definitely not wrong.

How can we resolve the conflict if we don’t know the reason?

If the conflict can be resolved simply by relying on the friendship and bonds within the band, why would the other party quit the band?

There is no doubt that they encountered a problem that they could not solve, and the people in the band were unable to digest this contradiction, which led to the disintegration of the band.

Understanding and resolving conflicts, this sentence works no matter where it is used.

Besides...

Toruko Kiritani then added, "And didn't you tell me, Sushi-chan? Your friend is still willing to communicate with you. Although she might be annoyed by this, your relationship isn't so bad that you two won't even talk to each other. There's still a chance to make amends!"

"Remedy?! Then what should I do? Please tell me, Kiritani-senpai!"

When Nagasaki Suyo heard that there was still a chance to repair her relationship with Rin, her eyes flashed with hope, and the decibel of her voice suddenly rose several degrees, and the girl's inner excitement overflowed.

"I'll make amends! Don't worry, as long as Yusei can conquer her, it'll be fine."

"Eh?!"

"Become a close friend with whom you can talk about anything. Create many wonderful memories with her from now on. Let her realize how much you cherish her. For the time being, don't bring up the band again. Let her relax. I'm sure that this will bring Xiao Sushi closer to her, right? Until we meet again?"

Toruko Kiritani expressed her thoughts without any pressure. She had no idea how her words would be understood by the girl in front of her... But Nagasaki Suyo's reaction finally returned to normal at this time.

She nodded solemnly, looked resolutely at the encouraging senior in front of her, and then promised:

"I will try my best to become friends with her. Thank you, Kiritani-senpai, for your guidance!"

"Hehe, it's not a big deal anyway. When you're in your girl band days, you should just be happily playing in the band. It's better to resolve conflicts in a timely manner."

Having said this sincerely, Toruko Kiritani was very glad that Suyo could "understand" what she meant, and tried to resolve the conflicts between the girls and reduce disputes between them.

After hearing this, Toruko Kiritani couldn't help but become interested. She looked at Nagasaki Suyo, who had a determined look on her face, and asked:

"Then let me ask again, what is Xiao Sushi going to do next? How are you going to treat this friend?"

"I...I will learn everything about her, her life, her hobbies, her behaviors, and become her real friend, not just a verbal nickname."

Nagasaki Suyo hesitated for a moment, and the surging emotions occupied the girl's mind, forcing her to directly reveal her true thoughts, without concealing her excitement and anticipation.

She knew that Shimizu Rin was willing to call her a friend, but that was all. She was completely unable to go further. Her relationship was neither light nor heavy, and she could only leave a faint mark in Rin's life.

Rin might admit that he was a friend with whom he had nominally played in a band, but Rin probably wouldn't be willing to chat with him, go out with him, play music with him again, or even share life like normal friends.

This was not what Nagasaki Suyo wanted to happen at all. She longed to feel needed, and if that person was Rin... surely this feeling would be especially strong?

After all, putting aside various factors, from a subjective perspective, if Su Shi could feel needed by a special girl like Rin, surely these feelings would be stronger than those of ordinary people? After all, Rin is special... If he could obtain this specialness, then the emptiness in his heart might be filled, right?

"Yeah, that's right."

Kiritani Toruko nodded with satisfaction, seemingly pleased with Nagasaki Suyo's transformation. However, she had no idea what kind of consequences her enlightenment would bring to Shimizu Rin in the future...

However, before the subsequent twisted story happened, Toruko Kiritani looked at her "masterpiece" and laughed out loud with relief.

Looks like I saved another girl, right?

After the persuasion was over, Toruko Kiritani asked casually in a normal tone, "So what will Suyo-chan do next?"

"My words..."

Nagasaki Suyo subconsciously glanced in the direction of the RiNG training room, pondered for a moment, and shook her head in relief.

"Nothing, I'll probably go home soon."

At first, Nagasaki Motoyo had planned to take advantage of today's free time to follow Rin and Ichiri all day, trying to find out the secret between the two, and by the way, verify whether Rin really wanted to abandon CRYCHIC and form a new band.

But after talking with Toruko Kiritani, Su Shi suddenly felt cheerful - friends have secrets from each other, and if she wants to be Rin's friend, it is naturally impossible for her to know everything.

She is not Lin's mother, and she has no right or obligation to care about so many things. She should have left the other party some private space.

In today's Su Shi, as long as Lin is not hiding something that she cannot accept at all, she can accept it calmly and express her understanding.

Maybe?

Now I have made up my mind...

"Well, I'll be leaving first then."

"Okay, goodbye, senior."

Nagasaki Motoyo said goodbye to Touko Kiritani who left with satisfaction, took one last glance at RiNG's training room, then turned and left the hall.

We'll meet again in the future...don't worry...

"Now I should go check on Xiaoming's news. I wonder how Xiaoming's group is doing? Should I ask Xiaoming tonight? It just so happens that I haven't chatted with Xiaoming in a while because of Xiaomu's recent situation."

The girl walked on the street, looking at the bustling city with sidelong glances, burying the loneliness deep in her heart, and finally embarked on the journey home.

......

......

Time goes back to not long after Takamatsu Deng escaped. Shimizu Rin looked helplessly at the anxious Toyokawa Shoko in front of him and complained:

"If you really cared about the lights that much, you should have chased after them instead of standing here hesitating like this."

"But I don't know whether I should meet Deng now. After all, I once promised Deng that we would form a lifelong band, but now I have quit CRYCHIC..."

Xiangzi shook his head softly, pursed his lips, and the confusion in his amber eyes was about to burst out.

"So what? Since Xiangzi knows that the problem with the lamp is caused by you, what do you want to do?" Lin waved his hand and glanced expressionlessly in the direction where Takamatsu Deng escaped.

The figure in my memory was completely invisible.

"I......"

Toyokawa Shoko looked at Shimizu Rin in embarrassment, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.

And Qing Shui Lin seemed to have anticipated this scene, and helplessly acted as a psychologist again, and then gave her advice:

"Well, come to think of it, how could Xiangzi possibly give an answer now? But if Xiangzi really cares, I do have two suggestions."

"If you, Xiangzi, had been firm in your heart and resolved to meet Deng, and explained clearly why you quit CRYCHIC, Deng wouldn't be like this now."

"Either they will never see each other again, or Xiangzi will completely withdraw from the world of the lamp, waiting for the lamp to wake up on its own, or meet her own salvation."

Perhaps Rin was exaggerating a bit, but this was undoubtedly what she was thinking.

From an outsider's perspective, Lin's advice might seem a bit condescending, but if you calm down and think about it carefully, you will find that her words make perfect sense.

What's more, given Xiangzi's current situation, Lin didn't expect her to wake up. She couldn't even take care of her own life, so how could she spare the energy to care about the people around her? Naturally, she had very little energy left.

In response to this, the girl sighed softly:

"After all, Xiangzi, you are not a god. It is impossible for you to give an answer to a confused girl, nor can you easily make promises. In the end, the lamp has to continue to move forward on its own."

In the girl's view, salvation in life is not about waiting blindly, but about getting it through one's own efforts. At least, this is how Rin has come along.

"...Well, what do you think I should do now, Rin?"

"Huh? How would I know that? But since we can't catch up with the lights now, we might as well go home. It's getting late, and I have to go back and take care of some things first."

Shimizu Rin responded casually.

Unexpectedly, Xiangzi listened to Lin's words this time and did not continue to pester her. He said goodbye to Lin and disappeared around the corner of the street alone.

When Qing Shui Lin was about to leave, he accidentally noticed that something seemed to be missing next to the street lamp. The location was where Takamatsu Deng had been hiding just now.

"what is this?"

When Shimizu Rin walked closer, she found a bunch of keys with round-headed penguin pendants lying quietly on the ground next to the street lamp. They were small and cute.

Obviously, when Rin saw the familiar penguin, she knew that it must be something that Takamatsu Deng dropped when he fled in a hurry.

"This is troublesome. This is the key... I have to find a time to return it. Or give the key to Lixi? Let Lixi return the key to Deng? But I just had a conflict with Lixi before..."

Rin Shimizu completely believes in Shiina Ritsuki's support for Takamatsu Tomo. If she gives the key to Ritsuki, the key will definitely return to Tomo's hands. However, she is worried that Shiina Ritsuki will take this opportunity to continue to bother her, so Rin is a little hesitant now.

After careful consideration, it turns out that...

"I'd better give it to the lamp myself. Send a Line message to the lamp first."

Shimizu Rin shook her head slightly, then took out her cell phone, opened the Line interface, scrolled down a distance, and found Takamatsu Deng, with whom she had hardly ever chatted.

[Deng, you lost your keys. Do you want me to bring them to you now? Or should we pick them up somewhere in a few days?]

As for the former lead singer of CRYCHIC, Rin Shimizu has even less interactions with Takamatsu Deng than Riki. At least when Riki is maintaining Deng, Rin can still have fun for a while, but when facing Deng, she rarely has anything to do with him.

She does have personality, but unfortunately, her level and love for music are not yet enough to attract Rin's interest.

Moreover, the occurrence of this phenomenon is inevitable.

Because Deng only uses singing as a form of expressing her inner feelings. Although it is essentially similar to a guitarist who can express his inner voice through playing the guitar, Rin was unable to feel Deng's determination to music from her singing.

It feels like...

It seems okay not to sing?

But how can this be possible? !

Lin doesn't play the guitar just because someone needs her or to express her feelings. Playing the guitar has long become the meaning of her life, and she will never be shaken by conflicts with her bandmates.

Even when she was at her lowest point in her previous life and her musical career was at its darkest, Shimizu Rin still chose to continue playing the guitar. Even though she was hungry, had no place to go all day and night, and suffered setbacks, the girl did not even think about whether she would regret it later.

Because she felt that this was what she should do.

"Let's go home first."

Qing Shui Lin put away his phone and walked towards his home.

Although he said he might give the key to Deng, how could Rin really run so far to deliver something? The time it took to go back and forth was enough for Rin to shower and go straight to bed.

Instead of doing this, it would be better to wait and return it to Deng later. After all, Deng is not alone like herself. There will definitely be someone in Deng's house who will open the door for her. There is no need to rush to get her key back.

Going back to deal with Rautism's affairs is the most urgent matter. Other matters can be put aside. Lin's ambition to make money cannot be delayed.

Although it may take some time for Rautism to become profitable, this does not prevent Shimizu Rin from imagining that she will make a fortune from Rautism in the future.

When that time comes, Lin vows to eat her fill every day, then replace Santa's guitar strings with the best, do the best maintenance, and continue to conquer bigger stages to play her guitar!

Later, the girl disappeared into the night.

at the same time.

At the Takamatsu family, Takamatsu Deng, who escaped from the restaurant door, ran back home without stopping. After running such a long distance, the girl just gasped a few times and there was no abnormality in her body. She looked as if she could continue running.

When Gao Songdeng returned to the door of her house, she reached into her trouser pocket. After a few seconds, the feeling of the empty pocket made Deng's expression dim again.

I don't know when the key fell off...

The girl's expression showed a bit of anxiety, and she was obviously thinking about where she might have dropped the key, but after trying hard, she still couldn't remember.

Finally, by calling his mother, the lamp successfully entered the house in a short time.
