Band heavy girl? Please stay away from me

The girl could not see the so-called team spirit in the band CRYCHIC at all.

When the band's founder Shoko Toyokawa quit, the entire band suddenly fell apart. It seemed that they were only forcibly connected by a bond and had no ties to the band.

Indeed, if Shimizu Rin had been willing to step forward at that time, she could indeed replace Xiangzi and perfectly become the new pillar of CRYCHIC, binding the other girls closely to herself and continuing to maintain the operation of the band.

But this is really too troublesome.

There are even many risks of the group breaking up. What Rin is pursuing is a band that can develop stably.

It’s not a gravity-defying band that’s at risk of exploding at any moment.

"I......"

Shiina Riki didn't know whether it was because she was not good at speaking, or because she couldn't think of anything to refute Rin, or because she agreed with Rin's statement, but her calm reaction in the next few minutes was beyond Shimizu Rin's expectations.

Originally, Rin thought that Shiina Riki would be hysterical and make a scene, but she didn't expect that Riki would be so docile now?

"I don't know."

"I didn't expect you to understand in such a short time. Anyway, you will understand it slowly in the future."

After taking the last bite of matcha parfait, Shimizu Rin reluctantly let go of the glass and leaned back in the chair listlessly.

"But now that I've said this, Mr. Lixi should understand why Deng Wunian was reluctant to tell you at the RiNG gate, right?"

"Well... Deng wants to form a lifelong band, and I... I can't make any promises to Deng because I don't have the talent..."

Shiina Riki said dejectedly. The girl's confused tone made Qingshui Rin feel overwhelmed. Rin quickly waved her hand to disperse the dark clouds in front of Riki:

"Why did you come back to this point?"

Now it was Rin's turn not to understand.

How could anyone care so much about so-called talent?

She had just talked about so many things, how did Li Xi manage to get back to herself after all this rambling? How should one deal with someone who is causing trouble on both sides?

"Isn't it? If it's really as you said, Rin, if I had enough talent, I could probably keep everyone in CRYCHIC when Xiangzi quit, and then the band wouldn't disband, right?"

Shiina Riki clenched her fists tightly, her body bent, her eyelids drooped, and the confusion and unwillingness in her pupils almost engulfed the entire girl.

If my talent had won everyone's trust, admiration, and belief in myself from the very beginning, would I really be able to maintain this band?

Looking at Rin's expression, the girl's face was inevitably full of astonishment, and shock overflowed in her pupils. She looked at Shiina Riki who was in deep thought in front of her with disbelief.

Hard to imagine.

Lin couldn't understand why the reasons she was discussing for the band's disbandment turned into the possibility that if she had talent, the band would not have disbanded in Lixi's ears.

She wondered if the person in front of her wasn't Nagasaki Suyo? Why was Li Xi's concern so unique?

"...Why did Li Xi suddenly think of this aspect? Wasn't what we just discussed the sufficient reasons for the disbandment of CRYCHIC?" Rin couldn't help but ask.

"Couldn't this be the reason why CRYCHIC disbanded?" Li Xi asked back.

long silence.

Qing Shui Lin smiled with relief, closed his eyes peacefully, and lay his upper body on the table, motionless, muttering:

"What a hassle..."

Troublesome woman...

Previously, Shimizu Rin felt angry because she couldn't reason with Nagasaki Motoyo, and now, the girl felt speechless because of her personal misunderstanding with Shiina Riki.

"It's really useless to say so much... Li Xi, are you free this afternoon?"

"I think so... After I got home at noon, I contacted my senior at the RiNG store to ask for leave. I don't have anything to do now."

"What's wrong, Rin?"

Shiina Riki recovered a little of his excitement, then looked curiously at the serious-looking white-haired girl in front of him, and his heart began to beat.

"If you have nothing to do, come with me."

After saying that, Shimizu Rin supported herself on the table with both hands, quickly stood up, then reached out and picked up her Santa from the seat beside her, looking at Shiina Riki with a firm gaze.

"What are you going to do?" Li Xi stood up immediately.

It happened that he had nothing to do this afternoon, so Shiina Riki didn't mind chatting with Rin again - the conversation between the two of them just now really made Riki feel a lot better, at least he didn't feel suffocated like when he ran home at noon.

"Go to Moon Forest and show you something."

"Huh? Today is the weekend, Tsuki no Mori Academy should be closed, right? And I'm not a student of Tsuki no Mori, how can I get in?"

"Don't worry about that. I have an insider in the Moon Forest. It won't be a problem to get you in."

Hearing the girl's confident tone, Shiina Riki couldn't help but feel a little shaken. Why did Rin take him to the Moon Forest to see something? What could it be?

This curiosity drove Li Xi to agree, and he followed Zero honestly. The two walked out of the cafe together, and then walked side by side towards the direction of Tsukinomori Academy.

Walking on the streets.

Rin turned to look at the silent girl beside him.

Smile.

"Lixi."

"what happened?"

The girl's smile made her heart tremble, and a tingling feeling came over her.

"Lixi, can you treat me to dinner later?"

"Huh? Why?"

Li Xi immediately responded with a helpless look.

It has always been like this.

Although Rin asks for food from all five members of CRYCHIC equally, she asks Riki for food significantly more often than the other members.

Li Xi still can't understand it.

But! If we really talk about the number of times, the one who treated the most guests was Toyokawa Shoko, the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa family.

Xiangzi would never refuse Rin's request, and would often thoughtfully bring many desserts to Rin, treating Rin in an extremely special way.

In this way, Rin thought that at least Xiangzi could have enough food to eat after leaving the Toyokawa family, not only because the girls had performed on the same stage before, but also because of this warm feeling that Rin could not adapt to.

"Because I didn't bring my wallet."

"Then how did you pay for the second cup of Matcha Buffyrin in the cafe just now?"

"......"

Rin was silent for a moment, then turned his head away quietly, determined not to pay any attention to Shiina Riki beside him.

"I know. I'll treat you."

"Ah."

Then again.

After all, Rin and Riki are friends, so it is impossible for them to break up over something as small as food. Of course, apart from the troublesome aspects of forming a band, the rest of their time together is relatively normal.

"Thank you."

"...Why are you suddenly saying this?"

"Nothing, let's keep going. I've already contacted the seniors in the academy, and we need to get there quickly. We can't wait too long."

Qing Shui Lin shook her head gently, her eyes fixed on the end of the road ahead. She seemed to be thinking about something, her pupils were deep, and a different light flashed frequently.

"So what are we going to see?"

"Li Xi will know when the time comes. It's just a quick thing anyway."

Qing Shui Lin acted as a riddler skillfully and successfully aroused the other party's expectations, which made his steps lighter.

After a while, Rin and Riki arrived at the gate of Tsukinomori Academy together. With the help of seniors in the academy, the two girls successfully slipped in.

"Go to my classroom and get something. We need to leave quickly after we get it. The seniors only give us half an hour to register."

"it is good......"

Now that they have entered Tsukinomori Academy, Shiina Riki forced himself to suppress his curiosity and followed closely behind Shimizu Rin.

Finally, the two girls arrived at the classroom door.

"If you just want to get something from the classroom, Rin can come in by yourself. Why bring me along?"

"Of course, let you, Li Xi, move the things. Look here." Qingshui Lin then pointed to a basket in the corner of the classroom, which was filled with various equipment and props.

"These props need to be delivered to the door of our class's arts department classroom. I left too quickly after school last time and accidentally forgot about it."

"Huh? You!"

Having said that, Shiina Riki finally had no choice but to pick up the heavy basket, following closely behind Rin, observing the white-haired girl's every move.

The two girls came to where Rin was sitting.

"So what are you going to get?"

"Here, this is it."

After a while, Qing Shui Lin took out a thick notebook from her drawer. Her name was written on the book, and the slightly damaged cover was enough to show how long it had been used.

"Let's put the equipment away first, shall we? After we leave Moon Forest, I'll explain to Li Xi what's inside."

"it is good......"

Without much hesitation, Shiina Riki followed the girl holding the basketball hoop, returned the equipment first, and then returned to Tsukinomori Academy along the same route.

The two girls walked onto the street, finally unable to contain their curiosity. Shiina Riki turned to look at the notebook in the arms of the white-haired girl next to her:

"so?"

"Here are some random lyrics I wrote a while ago."

"Rin can also write lyrics?"

Shiina Riki's eyes widened. It was obvious that she didn't expect that there was someone so well-rounded who could play the guitar, arrange music, and now even write lyrics?

"Of course, isn't Li Xi very concerned about the talent you mentioned? Now here is a good opportunity to prove it. You can try to compose a piece of music using the lyrics in this notebook, and then let me see the finished product that Li Xi composed to see if the talent that Li Xi cares about is really that important."

Shimizu Rin casually waved the notebook in her hand, then handed it to the dazed Shiina Riki without any reluctance.

The lyrics in this notebook were almost all written casually by Rin in her spare time. The original manuscripts of the truly popular original songs of "Desperate Guitarist" had long been locked up at home for safekeeping. These insignificant lyrics were perfect for Shiina Ritsuki to practice.

Besides, Rin didn't have much time recently. She was busy practicing Rautism and preparing for Starry's performance. Rin no longer had the extra energy to write the music for the lyrics in the notebook.

"How did Rin know I could compose music?"

Shiina Riki took the notebook handed to him by Rin in a daze, flipped through it quickly, and was immediately shocked by the delicate lyrics inside. He stood there in a daze.

"Maybe it's because I often saw Li Xi composing music in the corner during breaks in training? Even though it was break time, he still tried to compose his own music."

"Lixi is really working hard."

Rin chuckled.

Words that come from the heart often touch people's hearts the most.

"I......"

Shiina Riki looked at the notebook in her hand with a complicated expression. The confusion in her eyes was instantly swept away, leaving only endless complexity. Her violently beating heart made her head a little dizzy.

Can my efforts be seen by others?

"Although these lyrics were not written by Deng, Lixi can try to arrange them. I believe that with Lixi's ability, he can write the most suitable music for them."

"Why? To trust someone like me..."

“You don’t need a reason to believe.”

Familiar words.

Different occasions, two different people, but the same trembling heart.

At least in Rin's understanding, if one wants to prevent a girl in a band from causing trouble to her, it is best to find something for her to do to divert her attention - just like the lyrics Rin wrote for Li Xi now, trying to get Li Xi to shift some of her attention to the arrangement.

After all, CRYCHIC had just disbanded. Apart from Li Xi's part-time job at RiNG and his homework for the college entrance examination, Li Xi should have quite a bit of free time, and it was more than enough for him to occasionally take some time out to compose music.

Then, Rin continued:

"I did it because I wanted to... Since you care so much about talent, Li Xi, can you prove it to me if you can?"
