"Deng, am I important to you?"
Shiina Riki is waiting for an answer.
When Shimizu Rin, who was watching the show on the side, heard Riki's question, alarm bells went off in her heart, and she quickly pulled Goto Ichiri back.
Did gravity suddenly activate?!
When did it come?
Before Lin could figure out the cause and effect.
Not long after.
Takamatsu Deng, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke loudly, her voice even louder than when she was performing:
"Important! Lixi is important!"
Deng gave her answer decisively.
but!
"Tsk..."
This was obviously not the answer Li Xi wanted.
The emotions in the girl's eyes became more and more complicated, tangled into a filthy quagmire, dragging her into this cage from which she could not escape.
Since I am important...
Then why would Deng abandon himself and form a band without his own?
The lamp refuses to tell me anything...
Am I so unreliable?!
Or......
As a person without any talent, I can only stand in the shadows and watch those so-called talented geniuses enjoy everything?!
Obviously I have tried so hard...
"Lixi!"
Unexpectedly, this time it was no longer the autistic lead singer Takamatsu Deng who ran away, but the powerful drummer Shiina Tatsuki who escaped first.
After all, it's just words, and there's no persuasiveness at all, not to mention that the target is Shiina Riki, a girl who is prone to self-deprecation.
The girl with long black hair gritted her teeth and ran straight towards the street behind her, ignoring RiNG's work. Her back revealed a sense of loneliness.
Lin watched this scene calmly, knowing in his heart that there must have been some misunderstanding between Li Xi and Deng, which led to today's outcome.
"..."
Without saying a word, Takamatsu Deng raised his legs and chased after him, but his speed was obviously slower than Shiina Riki. From Rin's perspective, Deng was unlikely to catch up with Riki.
Unless Li Xi deliberately wanted to be caught up by Deng, just like a pink-haired girl who ran towards the rooftop during a chase, she was clearly trying to be bad.
"Rin, what should we do now?"
Goto Ichiri reached out and gently tugged at the hem of Rin's skirt. The worry in her eyes seemed to have subsided a little as Riki and Deng left. At least she no longer curled up her head.
Hearing this, Qing Shui Lin fell into deep thought.
Although Rin didn't know the specific reason why Shiina Riki ran away, she knew that she must be involved, and it might even be related to the unreliable idea that Riki had mentioned to her before - to form a new band without Xiangzi.
The girl was well aware that Lixi's idea was undoubtedly a shock to Deng at the moment. The band Deng had always claimed would be a lifetime band had just disbanded, so how could she, someone so sensitive, possibly recover so quickly? It was no surprise that Deng was somewhat resistant to the idea of immediately forming a lifelong band.
However, the current chase is definitely a problem that needs to be solved.
"Well... Ichiri, you should go home with the two guitars first. I have to go and take a look. I'll come back after they've resolved their issues. Remember to apologize to Mr. Goto for me. If I can't make it in time, please don't wait for me."
Rin handed the guitar case in his arms to Goto Ichiri with a serious face, and there was no trace of joking in his serious tone.
Obviously, the girl was serious.
"Eh?! But they..." Goto Ichiri's face was filled with surprise. He subconsciously hugged the guitar that Rin handed to him, and stammered to try to keep Shimizu Rin who was warming up.
"It's okay... After all, they are my friends just like Ichiri. I have to go over and see them now."
"Ah, it's a friend... Well, go ahead, Rin, I'll tell Mom and Dad!"
Goto Ichiri, who was originally worried, was relieved of the accumulated entanglement in her heart when she heard Rin say "friend", and silently made way for Rin.
If it's a friend...
I guess this is what we should do, right?
If it were me... I would also try my best to do this for Rin.
At this moment, although Qing Shuilin was puzzled by Xiao Gudu's sudden change of expression, it was not the time to think about these things - the light in the girl's eyes was almost invisible to her back.
"Then let's meet again at Little Lonely's house."
In a hurry, Shimizu Rin blurted out Goto Ichiri's future nickname, although it had not yet appeared in this world.
However, Shimizu Rin had already run some distance at this time, and she had no time to pay attention to so many things. She just kept chasing after Takamatsu Deng's back.
Only Goto Ichiri was left standing there in a daze, muttering over and over again: "Little Lonely...are you talking about me?"
"Is this...a nickname Rin gave me?!"
Goto Ichiri suddenly raised her head, stars twinkling in her eyes. The sudden joy made the girl fly up inexplicably at this moment, and Ichiri walked in the opposite direction with a light-hearted step.
This was the first time in the girl's life that she was given a nickname.
Even the most unpleasant nicknames can be readily accepted by Goto Ichiri, a socially anxious person. Moreover, in the girl's cognition, giving nicknames is a sign of good relationship and one of the rights that real people can have.
It perfectly matched Goto Ichiri's expectations and was the title she had always dreamed of.
What's more.
"A little loneliness..."
Just the sound of this nickname makes it seem like it fits me perfectly! Rin must have put a lot of effort into coming up with it, right?!
Absolutely amazing!!!
The haze that had accumulated in the pink-haired girl's heart was suddenly swept away. She threw everything about Shiina Riki behind her and was completely immersed in the joy of having a nickname.
It was not until he was almost hit by a car while walking on the road that Goto Ichiri came to his senses. He forced himself to suppress his inner joy and hurried home with brisk steps.
"I must share this good news with Mom and Dad! Hehe, for the first time, the Tokyo Band Queen has a new nickname!"
There was no one around her, and there were not many pedestrians on the street because it was past dinner time. The deserted environment allowed this socially anxious girl to enrich her imagination again - she imagined her future junior high school life, no, it should be high school life.
The lonely life in junior high school is completely beyond my ability to change, but maybe... I can change my current situation in high school and become a super popular person in school?
Hehe... With my superb guitar playing skills, becoming a famous celebrity should be easy, right?
However, as for high school... I guess I have to change schools. I can't let my reputation from junior high spread to high school...
Furthermore, the girl didn't want to see any of her former classmates in high school. She just wanted to stay away from them and completely put aside her previous social anxiety life.
"High school...Rin should still be attending Tsukinomori Academy..."
Goto Ichiri felt discouraged when she thought of the extremely high admission threshold of Tsuki no Mori Academy. Although she wanted to attend the same high school as her only friend, with her family conditions, she probably could not meet the minimum requirement of Tsuki no Mori, a school for young ladies.
As for Goto Ichiri's academic performance... I can only say that it is completely incomparable to the girl's guitar, and he obviously can't follow the old path of Kurata Mashiro.
"If I let Rin tutor me!... But I don't think that would work..."
Shimizu Rin can barely be considered a top student, but from her performance in class and her usual attitude towards learning, it can be seen that she cannot be one of the top students.
The reason why the white-haired girl is called a top student is entirely due to her pure talent and previously accumulated experience.
If Shimizu Rin studied hard, she might be able to reach the top level in the country, but! The girl clearly has no such ambitions. She has devoted her life wholeheartedly to playing guitar, and as long as she studies, she is content with just enough to get by.
"I can't go to Tsuki no Mori... should I find a school closer to Tsuki no Mori? Hmm... I'd better discuss it with my parents later..."
Goto Ichiri sighed, and with Santa carrying her guitar case on his back and holding Rin in his arms, he hurried home.
Let’s put aside the serious issue of junior high school admission.
The nickname he unexpectedly got from Rin today was enough to make Goto Ichiri happy for the whole day.
Moreover, Goto Ichiri couldn't help but think of a possibility:
If I'm the only friend Rin calls by a nickname, does that mean I'm actually Rin's most important friend?!
The possibility exists.
The smile on the girl's face grew even wider.
This was probably the period in her life when she smiled most sincerely.
so good.
Before this, the girl would never have thought that all the beautiful things now were actually caused by a small quarrel on the Internet not long ago.
Life is interconnected.
......
......
At the same time, Shimizu Rin chased the running Takamatsu Deng for several blocks and almost lost him several times. Fortunately, a kind passerby reminded him.
After being followed all the way, the breathless Qing Shui Lin accidentally came to the famous Adult Bridge - the overpass that connects the lives of young girls with each other.
And above the adult bridge, stood a confused gray-haired girl.
Qing Shui Lin looked around and searched, but she didn't see the familiar girl with long black hair and teardrop mole.
It is obvious that Takamatsu Deng did not catch up with Shiina Riki, but instead came to this adult bridge.
"The lamp is actually lost... It seems that Li Xi's problem this time is really serious... However, I have to deal with the lamp first."
Shimizu Rin looked up at the Takamatsu Tou on the overpass, a look of determination appeared on her cute little face, and then she walked towards the steps of the overpass.
I don't know.
What she has to deal with is not only the psychological problems of the two girls, but also the subsequent developments are beyond imagination.
The curtain of one-on-three is about to open.

81. Write a Lifetime Song for Rin (Additional Compensation)
The overpass was exceptionally quiet at noon, perhaps because everyone was eating at the time. There were only two girls left nearby - as if this was a stage designed specifically for girls.
Takamatsu Deng stood on the bridge, motionless, his face expressionless, just relaxing as usual... So, Shimizu Rin relaxed a little.
Despite the high-pressure atmosphere around Takamatsu Deng, the white-haired girl quickly walked to Deng's side and gently patted Deng's shoulder.
Unlike Xiangzi who cried on a rainy day, Shimizu Rin did not think that Takamatsu Tou would choose to do something stupid because he could not accept reality.
After all, although Takamatsu Deng felt confused at the moment, she was far from despairing of the world, or rather... in this era of big girl bands, there are only a very small number of people who can truly despair of life.
However, just in case, Shimizu Rin still chose to stand less than an arm's length away from Takamatsu Deng, leaving herself enough room to react - no matter whether Takamatsu Deng in front of her wanted to jump or run, Shimizu Rin was sure that she could grab her, or be taken off the overpass with Deng.
"Deng, were you okay just now?" Lin asked softly.
"Yeah...it's okay."
Lin's experience at CRYCHIC taught her how to communicate with the lead singer in front of her, as well as the topics she liked and some sensitive points she was reluctant to talk about.
It seems that Rin can perfectly defend against Deng, but apart from the strength of force, in this aspect, Rin and Deng are completely incomparable.
As Rin's voice carried on the breeze into Takamatsu Deng's ears, the girl subconsciously shrank back, but when she thought that it was Shimizu Rin beside her, Deng quickly calmed down, and the thought of running away again disappeared.
If it's Rin...it's never too late for me to run, right?
No matter how panicked he was, Takamatsu Deng was sure to at least get rid of the frail white-haired guitarist. Except for some special circumstances, Rin basically could not catch up with him.
Even dealing with the opponent is not a problem...
But it is impossible for Takamatsu Deng to really do such excessive things to Rin now. Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. If he really did that, it is still unknown whether they can still be friends in the future. After all, the matter is not serious enough to be irreversible.
On the overpass, two girls stood by the fence. Gao Songdeng still had his head lowered, his eyes slightly drooped, not daring to look at the white friend who appeared beside him.
Even though he could hear the concern and care in Lin's voice, he couldn't convey what was in Deng's heart.
Although the gray-haired girl was able to write lyrics that expressed her inner feelings in her notebook and convey her feelings through singing, she was ultimately not enlightened at that moment.
