Without staying in the living room for too long, Takamatsu Deng behaved like a junior high school student - she hardly communicated with her parents, retreated straight into her bedroom, and quickly closed the door.

Coming to the desk, Gao Songdeng lowered his eyes and stared at her notebook, silent and dazed. Time stopped briefly at this moment.

“Ding ding…”

The voice that had not been heard for a long time appeared again. Later, Gao Songdeng took out her mobile phone from the pocket of her sweatshirt with a dull expression.

"Is this... news about Rin?"

Gao Songdeng looked at it again in surprise. After confirming that it was correct, she clicked on the message curiously and began to feel inexplicably nervous.

Rin...what could be the reason you're looking for me?

Is it because we just bumped into each other?

Thinking of this, Lin's news appeared directly in Deng's eyes, and the girl suddenly showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

"It turns out that the key was picked up by Rin..."

"Should I go get it back?"

Gao Songdeng asked herself this question, but when she thought of her limited edition penguin pendant on the keychain, she felt a strong reluctance in her heart.

This is something the girl waited in line for a long time to buy... but it's no longer available...

If it's Rin, there shouldn't be any problem meeting her, right?

Takamatsu Deng couldn't help but recall the time when she asked Shimizu Rin for advice on singing. Although Rin acted like an outsider in CRYCHIC, she was always very serious when it came to music.

When I first joined CRYCHIC, I had many shortcomings in my singing skills. In order to ease the awkwardness during performances, Shimizu Rin once offered to teach me singing skills, but...

In the end, I still messed up...

Not only did Xiangzi fail to satisfy CRYCHIC's performance, but his own singing skills were also unable to respond to Rin's teachings, which led to Rin's withdrawal from CRYCHIC due to disappointment in himself.

In Takamatsu Deng's eyes, Rin and Shoko's withdrawal were all due to her problems, so the girl has felt particularly confused in recent times, even surpassing her previous state before joining CRYCHIC.

At least the lamp didn’t feel pain before, but now it has a short memory in CRYCHIC, where beauty and pain coexist, making the lamp sink deeper and deeper until it is confused.

But no matter what, the key should be taken back, not only because of the penguin pendant on the keychain, but also because Deng wants to express his apology to Lin in person.

After all, Deng only needs to tell her mother and she will get a new set of keys tomorrow, so she doesn’t have to worry about losing the keys at all.

[Hmm... Is Rin free tomorrow? ]

After replying to this message, Gao Songdeng subconsciously covered his chest, where his heart was beating.

When inferiority and gratitude are intertwined in a person, she will have a very special and complex emotion - even the girl herself cannot clearly explain what kind of emotion it is.

"It would be nice if we could meet..."

-

Reward paid: 2.5

78. A Lifetime Promise

The sky was as black as ink. The white-haired girl returned to her small house in the dark night. She was exhausted and casually threw her small leather shoes into the corner.

Dong dong, Lin took off her slightly wet white knitted socks, threw them into the basket next to the shoe cabinet, and walked into the living room with her bare white and tender pink feet.

A layer of white mist immediately appeared on the floor where the girl stepped, which just revealed the outline of her feet, which were delicate and small, and inexplicably itchy.

After a few seconds, Lin lay down on the sofa, closed his eyes, and buried his head in the pillow, as peaceful and quiet as a corpse.

“Ding ding…”

The sudden ringing of the cell phone woke up Qing Shui Lin who was taking a nap. The girl struggled to support herself with her arms and stretched out her slender hand to barely touch the cell phone.

It’s so late...whose news could it be?

Did Xiao Gudu encounter some problems? Or did Deng reply to his message?

Confused, Shimizu Rin unlocked her phone screen, quickly opened the message bar, and saw Takamatsu Deng's name suddenly appeared in her eyes.

Obviously, Deng probably saw his message just now - and now she came to ask him about the keys. This bunch of keys must be of great significance to her, and it is probably related to the penguin pendant on the keychain.

as expected:

[Hmm... Is Rin free tomorrow? ]

"Tomorrow, that's not impossible."

Lin nodded slightly, then tapped his fingers quickly, and replied after a while:

[Yes, would you be available to come to RiNG's door around 12 noon tomorrow to pick up your key? If not, I only have time in the evening.]

A concise and quick response.

Considering that she has to go to RiNG with Xiao Gu Du to practice Rautism's new song tomorrow, Shimizu Rin does not plan to find free time to meet Deng.

Instead of simply returning the key and handing it to the light and leaving, it would be better to just do it at the door of RiNG. This way, it will not interfere with Rin and Xiao Gu Du's training, and it will not waste too much time.

Shimizu Rin can also check Deng's mental state by the way, so that she won't really become a small chandelier. Not only Deng's life, but the lives of some girls may also be completely ruined, and they will wander in the abyss of guilt for the rest of their lives.

Rautism is about to open, Starry's solo guitar performance is about to be scheduled, and the arrangement of many new songs is being prepared, all of which are taking up most of Shimizu Rin's daily life.

What's more, Shimizu Rin was worried that Takamatsu Touma would learn from Xiangzi, just like the crying Xiangzi before, and control her for the whole night, wasting precious time for no reason to compose the music score of Rautism.

Soon, while Qing Shuilin was worried, the phone screen lit up again, and a paragraph of words appeared clearly in the girl's sight.

[Okay, I will be at RiNG's door on time tomorrow. Rin will definitely come to see me, right?]

【Don't worry, I will definitely arrive earlier than the light. 】

Qing Shui Lin replied casually, breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and patted his chest lightly.

She and Xiao Gu Du were originally practicing in RiNG's training room. When the time came, they would come out to return the key and then resume training.

There was no need to worry about the lights unfolding due to gravity. Moreover, when the two girls were in CRYCHIC, the autistic lead singer rarely chatted with Lin, and it was obvious that the two band members did not have a deep relationship.

The only thing that might have concerned Takamatsu Deng was probably the time when she was in CRYCHIC and Rin couldn't stand her poor singing skills during the band practice and took the initiative to teach Deng?

However, as Deng's singing skills gradually improved, Shimizu Rin stopped teaching him and let him explore his own style and grow freely. Unexpectedly, this move led to an accident.

What still surprises Qing Shui Lin is that since he stopped teaching Deng, the communication between him and Deng has become increasingly rare. Whenever Deng looks at him, he often has a pitiful expression, and the reluctance in his eyes often makes people puzzled.

I shouldn't have done anything bad to this penguin girl, right?

Could it be... just because I had snuck in a few cups of matcha parfait earlier? But would this be an unforgivable crime?

To be honest, isn’t it the most comfortable and enjoyable thing to eat your own matcha parfait while watching the girls having fun?

"Never mind. After I return the key to Deng tomorrow, this matter will be over. There's no point in thinking too much about it now. Deng can't possibly write a song for me in the future, right?"

The girl shook her head and was about to sit up and take a comfortable bath when her cell phone started to make a noise again.

Lin stopped in her tracks and turned back with a puzzled look on her face, wondering why someone would contact her.

But Lin thought again, maybe there might be some temporary problems with the lamp, and it might not be able to reach RiNG at noon tomorrow, so the time and place need to be changed?

When Shimizu Rin was about to discuss with Deng, she unexpectedly found that this time her phone did not show a message from Line, but a private message from a loyal fan received from the "Desperate Guitarist" account.

Still the familiar online name [Long-term vegetarian]

This is a heavy fan who makes Shimizu Rin feel very troubled and difficult on the Internet, and she is also the same in real life.

Because the true identity of this loyal fan is actually CRYCHIC's former bassist, Nagasaki Suyo, a girl who can cause trouble to others if you are not careful.

[Xiaoming, I saw your official updates this morning... I'm curious, so I wanted to ask Xiaoming, would you be willing to chat with me?]

"Ah...what is she going to do now?"

Qing Shui Lin frowned slightly, subconsciously wanting to turn off her phone and ignore the message from Su Shi, but the next second, Lin suddenly realized a serious problem - she had already clicked on the message, and the message in the chat box had become read...

"hiss......"

The girl stared at the two dazzling "read" words on the screen, and suddenly felt a headache, and her heart suddenly became conflicted.

Now Rin can no longer fool Sushi by saying she didn't see it...

I guess Su Shi has already seen this read message and started looking forward to his response, right?

And based on the image of the "Desperate Guitarist" account in the past, it would definitely reply to the message of this enthusiastic fan, Nagasaki Motoyo, so as not to violate its professional ethics... But now the situation is completely different...

If I ignore it... Su Shi will probably come back to ask me about it later, right? Just like the great perseverance Su Shi showed in resurrecting Crychik.

After all, you can hide for a while, but not forever. It is impossible for Shimizu Rin to ignore Nagasaki Motoyo for the rest of her life as a "desperate guitarist", otherwise the subsequent backlash will only be more serious.

Shimizu Rin is not worried about this. In her opinion, it is impossible for Nagasaki Suyo to detect her true identity with her level, and she herself has no intention of revealing her identity. Considering all these factors, Rin does not think that this "misunderstanding" will have much impact on each other.

"The Desperate Guitarist" is, at best, just an average online guitarist. Even if she plays guitar beautifully, how could anyone possibly remember her? Isn't it said that the internet forgets things? There's no need to worry about opening the box, right?

Ever since.

Shimizu Rin expressionlessly began her "business" as a "desperate guitarist," her fingers sliding leisurely as she quickly typed out words that she would never normally say.

"Of course I do. What's the problem, Vegetarian Sister? I'm free now, okay?"

If Lin said such shameful words in front of Su Shi, she might evaporate on the spot like Xiao Gu Du, right?

Life is life, work is work, and Rin never confuses the two, so she has no objection to the sunny sister image created on the Internet.

Anyway, it's not the real self, so it's up to Rin to decide how to use her virtual image on the Internet. For Rin, the easier it is to attract popularity, the better, and the more money she will make.

“Ding ding…”

[That's great! I'd like to ask how far along Xiaoming's group is with preparations? I've been wanting to hear Xiaoming's new music lately, so I wanted to ask about it here and also urge him to update. I hope Xiaoming doesn't mind.]

Lin was forced to sit back down on the sofa, crossing her legs impatiently. The girl tilted her head back, her upper body leaning against the back of the sofa, her white hair scattered in the air, and she supported the phone with both hands, holding it above her face.

The girl's lazy look at this moment is completely different from when she was playing the guitar.

Of course not! I'm glad that Vegetarian Sister is looking forward to the group's new song. The group's name has been decided, but it may be a while before the new song is released. They are still in the training stage.

"Well, then Su Shi should be satisfied, right?"

Lin sighed softly. After all, the girl earned part of her tuition and living expenses through the Internet, so she naturally knew what others wanted to hear from her, including Nagasaki Suyo.

Among the five girls in CRYCHIC, Xiangzi and Su Shi left the deepest impression on Rin. Whether it was Su Shi's perseverance or Xiangzi's indirect softness, these brought Rin many unforgettable memories, which she even didn't want to think about.

[So Xiaoming has already decided on a name for the group. Could you tell me in advance? I'll be the first one to cheer you guys on!]

Qing Shuilin paused and thought for a moment:

[Rautism, I hope Sister Vegetarian will continue to support us in the future~]

According to the plan, Rin and Ichiri will announce the formation of an online idol group called Rautism in a few days. Telling Su Shi the name of the group in advance is nothing more than a joke and does not constitute any loss of profit.

"Well, I'll support Rautism forever! But... have you ever considered joining a real-life idol group? If you're ready, please let me know. I'll be there to cheer you on as soon as possible!"

"what?"

Su Shi's question once again surprised Qing Shui Lin.

Is this... ready to be unboxed?

Qing Shui Lin sat up from the sofa in an instant, her fingers trembling slightly, and a trace of panic inevitably flashed across her face.

If possible, she naturally hoped that this secret would not be discovered by Su Shi, so as to save her a lot of trouble and avoid unnecessary entanglement.

[Haha, Rautism doesn't have any plans for the time being. We want to focus on making some progress online first, and then make our online debut. If we do it in real life... it might not really fit our Rautism style.]

「Is that so...Okay, it’s okay. I’m really looking forward to Rautism’s new song~」

【Thank you, Vegetarian Sister, for your anticipation. 】

Qing Shuilin breathed a sigh of relief.

If Nagasaki Suyo continued to question her, Rin was worried that her tone would get out of control like before, and Suyo might notice that something was wrong.

However, considering how much Su Shi cares about his life now, this worry can be completely avoided.

For the person she cares about, no matter what the other person does, she will automatically add a thick layer of filter to it. She will not easily destroy the image of the other person in her heart and become a staunch supporter.

This has long been proven in CRYCHIC historical records.

Not long after.

“Ding ding…”

News about Su Shi followed.
