Chihaya Aine raised an eyebrow in confusion, then looked in the direction she was looking.

He immediately spotted Kazami Naruto standing at the entrance of Haneoka, and a brown-haired girl laughing and talking to him.

"……ha?!"

Gradually recovering from his astonishment, the pink-haired man uttered a shout that was difficult to understand.

"That's... Su Shi-chan?"

"Wait! Why is she with Mingming?"

Chihaya Aine's "Fox Spirit Radar" seems to be starting to ring out!

She had initially thought that Kazami Mei was busy with something today because of her 'part-time job,' but it turned out that she had a date with Nagasaki Motoyo, the bassist in the band. How did the two of them end up together without her even realizing it?

Chihaya Aine had absolutely no idea about this!

I'm so tired, so alone

"Why, why would Su Shi..."

The stinky pink hair is incomprehensible.

its not right!

Chihaya Aine was in a dream, but she didn't sense any feelings between Motoyo and Kazami Mei beyond friendship.

Nagasaki Motoyo, who is as gentle as a mother, is one of the people in the band who she trusts the most. She is even less dangerous than the minor character Riki. Who would have thought that she would see her with her boyfriend?

"what--"

It was only then that the pink-haired girl suddenly remembered that Nagasaki Motoyo had asked her for Kazami Naru's contact information before.

Because the gentle Nagasaki Motoyo said that "we should keep in touch with everyone," I took this opportunity to get Chihaya Aine's phone number, and then naturally asked her if she had Kazami Mei's contact information.

Without much thought, Aine gave it to her directly...

"...Could it be because of me?"

Chihaya Aine suddenly felt her little head buzzing.

Could it be that I unknowingly helped my 'suspected' love rival?

"No! We have to go up and check the situation, no matter what!"

"Dengdeng, let's go see what's going on!"

Realizing she couldn't keep watching like this, Chihaya Aine was about to chase after them when she found that Takamatsu Akari was still standing in the same spot. Feeling anxious, she immediately panicked.

"Dengdeng, what's wrong with you...?"

Takamatsu was still staring into the distance, but her gaze seemed somewhat different from before.

Chihaya Aine followed her gaze and a look of surprise appeared in her eyes.

Standing in the distance is a stunningly beautiful girl.

She had a head of deep blue spiral hair that cascaded down like a waterfall, and her long, flowing pigtails, tied up with black ribbons, were smooth and glossy. She was slender and graceful, with beautiful curves, and every movement seemed to naturally reveal her elegance.

Her exceptionally beautiful appearance perfectly showcased her youthful radiance.

"That girl... I remember she's Toyokawa-san, and she was a member of Touka's band before? Her name is... something like CRYMACHINA?"

With her exceptional memory, Chihaya Aine gradually recalled a group photo she had seen on Nagasaki Motoyo's phone, in which the beautiful blue-haired girl stood smiling next to Takamatsu Akari.

I heard that the band broke up because of some conflict.

Come to think of it, I seem to have met her once before.

Shoko Toyokawa stood ramrod straight, holding her bag in both hands, her stunning amber eyes fixed on the distance—

"Xiao Xiang..."

Gao Songdeng frowned, suddenly feeling somewhat at a loss.

Seeing Toyokawa Shoko again after a long time, the already insecure Xiaobideng could only stare blankly at her in the distance. As long as she closed her eyes, she seemed to be able to recall the day CRYCHIC disbanded, with Toyokawa Shoko, soaking wet, frowning and with an extremely cold look in her eyes.

[Mingming is the worst person. What have you been doing all this time?]

From that moment on, I was 'lost'.

However, after meeting Ming, he found his direction again.

"I can't... do it the same way as before."

Takamatsu's eyes were still filled with intense insecurity and sadness, but even so, she forced herself to raise her head and look in Xiangzi's direction.

It was at this moment that Takamatsu suddenly noticed.

Toyokawa Shoko seemed to be looking at something as well.

"Xiao Xiang?"

Is Xiangzi looking at Su Shi?

"No, Xiangzi isn't looking at Su Shi-chan..."

Perhaps it was the doubts in his heart that made Gao Songdeng's inferiority complex dissipate a little.

From this direction, Takamatsu could clearly see Toyokawa Shoko's furrowed brows. Her gaze didn't seem to be fixed on Nagasaki Motoyo, but rather on the other people nearby.

It's almost like watching Kazami Naruto...

Takamatsu pursed her lips slightly, as if she had recalled something.

If I remain unable to speak my mind as before, and if I continue to run away from important matters as before, then no matter how many times I try, I will not change anything. I must make up my mind.

"..."

After hesitating for a moment, she made up her mind and walked in the direction of Toyokawa Shoko.

"Hey? Wait a minute, Dengdeng!"

Chihaya Aine was stunned.

She truly had no idea that Takamatsu Akari would actually run towards that 'Toyokawa Shoko'!

Even from that distance, Chihaya Aine could sense that Toyokawa Shoko was quite formidable, yet it was Kotori, with her innocent and gentle nature, who took the initiative to go to her.

However, Nagasaki Motoyo on the other side was already preparing to leave with Kazami Naruto.

Chihaya Aine was extremely anxious, feeling like her little head was about to split open. She could only stand there looking left and right, completely unable to make up her mind and having no idea what to do.

Should we chase after Mingming, or help Dengdeng?

"Seriously, what on earth is going on?!"

"I don't care anymore!"

Chihaya Aine shook her little head like a rattle drum, seemingly trying to shake off all the distracting thoughts in her mind.

No matter what, we can't let Dengdeng have contact with that Toyokawa Shoko alone!

What if Dengdeng gets bullied by the other party?

"Su Shi probably doesn't have any 'other' thoughts either. After all, she didn't show anything in the 'dream,' so she should be fine..."

For the time being, she decided to trust Ms. Aine of Nagasaki Motoyo and gritted her teeth to give up the idea of ​​chasing after Kazami Naru.

No matter what, we can't just leave the little light unattended, can we?!

Not far away, Toyokawa Shoko didn't notice what was happening here. She just frowned and stared intently at Kazami Mei, whose figure was gradually disappearing in the distance. Her eyes were full of doubt and a trace of inexplicable anxiety was hidden in them.

She had a bad feeling when she saw Nagasaki Motoyo, but she didn't expect her to be waiting for Kazami at the door.

What is their relationship?

Feeling somewhat anxious, Toyokawa Shoko took a deep breath as she watched the two figures gradually disappear.

No, she had to find out what was going on.

As she gradually lost her composure, Toyokawa Shoko began walking towards the school gate, while simultaneously picking up her phone and dialing a number from her contacts.

After a series of busy tones, the dialed number was finally answered by someone.

[...Xiao Xiang?]

On the other end of the phone came a calm yet somewhat gentle voice.

"Hello, is this Xiao Mu?"

"I just saw Nagasaki Motoyo walking with Kazami. Do you know what's going on?"

Shoko Toyokawa's somewhat anxious tone seemed to silence Mutsuko Wakaba on the other end of the phone.

At this moment, Toyokawa Shoko was completely unaware that she had lost her composure.

This unnatural expression of emotion revealed her hidden thoughts, and it was precisely because Ruoye Mutsu noticed this that she fell silent.

However, compared to Toyokawa Shoko's little scheme...

What Wakaba Mutsu was more worried about was Kazami Naru, who was staying with Nagasaki Motoyo.

Su Shi has formed a band with Ming.

When asked by Toyokawa Shoko over the phone, Wakaba Mutsu casually offered an explanation, but that one sentence left Toyokawa Shoko speechless.

"Yeah, I know."

"Thank you for telling me, Xiao Mu."

After thanking her softly, Toyokawa Shoko touched the screen and slowly hung up the phone.

She seemed to recall the messages that Nagasaki Motoyo kept sending her, and even after she blocked her, Motoyo didn't seem to give up. This persistent harassment had gradually turned Toyokawa Shoko's guilt into annoyance.

Seeing Kazami Mei forming a band with her now, Toyokawa Shoko's emotions were hard to calm down.

But what does that have to do with her now?

She wasn't related to Kazami Naruto at all; at most, she could only be considered a 'friend' with whom he helped each other.

Thinking about this made Toyokawa Shoko even more agitated, and she even gripped her phone with more force in her right hand.

"Xiao Xiang!"

The sudden sound made Toyokawa Shoko freeze, and she immediately turned around to look behind her.

Suddenly, a girl with short gray hair appeared behind her.

There seemed to be a hint of melancholy in those somewhat dim amber eyes. Xiangzi, who hadn't expected to run into Takamatsu Akari at this moment, was also taken aback, but her expression turned cold the next moment.

"What's matter?"

Toyokawa Shoko's curt and dismissive response seemed to have shackled Takamatsu Akari's growing courage, leaving her standing there bewildered.

"Xiaoxiang, I..."

"I have other things to do, so I'll take my leave now."

Toyokawa Shoko gave a curt reply, then turned and left with her shoulder bag slung over her shoulder.

She had no intention of having any further interaction with Takamatsu.

Because every time she sees her former CRYCHIC teammates, she feels guilty and remorseful, but she has to force herself to appear tough and indifferent, otherwise all her previous efforts will be in vain!

Toyokawa Shoko must never become weak again.

"Wait a minute! Aren't you going a bit too far?!"

As soon as Chihaya Aine walked over, she saw Toyokawa Shoko give Takamatsu Akari a cold look.

Although the pink-haired girl didn't know the specific reason why CRYCHIC disbanded, she knew that this blue-haired, cold-faced girl in front of her suddenly ran over and said she wanted to quit, and without even giving a reason, she cut off everyone else.

Toyokawa Shoko seemed a bit too selfish in Aine's eyes.

Xiao Di Deng, who was already filled with melancholy and sadness, finally mustered up the courage to come and talk to Toyokawa Shoko, only to be shut down by her cold and harsh words. Isn't that a bit too much?

As a friend, of course, I, the pink-haired guy, can't just stand by and watch!

"We have nothing to say."

However, Toyokawa Shoko remained frowning, her beautiful face as cold as ice, seemingly devoid of any warmth. Her aura of keeping people at arm's length startled Chihaya Aine, causing her to take two steps back.

Just as Toyokawa Shoko was about to leave, Takamatsu Akari, who was looking down with a sorrowful expression, spoke softly—
