"Because I'm not wrong..."

"It's not like we're wrong...right, Momoka?"

Nina raised her cheek and looked at Momoka. Momoka, who seemed lost in thought, came back to her senses and nodded quickly.

"Ah... that's right."

The commercialization issue that I was most worried about became almost insignificant under Lin You's influence. Also, survival... in other words, the issue of money, was all taken care of by him, so there was no need to worry at all... right?

The faint moonlight floated down from above and sprinkled on Taoxiang's shoulders.

She looks up.

The moon emerged from behind the clouds, casting a silvery glow. A timely breeze blew, ruffling Momoka's silver-gray hair, causing it to drift and occasionally touch Subaru's long hair.

The atmosphere is quiet.

It's like the Budokan after the LIVE ends.

It wasn't like the five of us were just getting together for the first time...

At this time.

RUPA spoke first: "Ah, speaking of which...what is the relationship between Momoka and Lin-kun?"

Jinai repeated, "It's a 'keeping' relationship..."

"Eh…………"

"That's really rock 'n' roll, Momoka?"

"........."

Xiaozhi stared at Momoka with a scrutinizing look, as if he was wondering if forming a band was the right decision.

Taoxiang covered her face and stopped talking.

……

Shimokitazawa, Setagaya-ku, Tokyo.

livehouse「STARRY」——

"Oh my goodness, Yuu! You're so slow! Kita-chan's been waiting for you here for ages, huh?!"

Hong Xia frowned slightly and scolded in a soft and sweet voice.

Of course she wasn't angry, she was just trying to lighten the mood. Seeing Youxi behind Lin You, she smiled sweetly again:

"Ah... Yuki is here too? Good evening, Yuki!"

Yuki: "Hongxia! Ciallo~(∠?ω

"Ah… C-Ciallo?"

Hongxia didn't understand.

Lin You pushed aside his disruptive sister and sat down next to Hong Xia. He looked at Xi Duo, who seemed to be trembling with fear, and said directly:

"In that case, I'll just ask directly - Xiduo, are you willing to form a band with us for life?"

"Ah... ah?"

Volume 145: Chapter Xiduo, I want to tell you about my Shenghongxia!

"Well then, Ms. Kita Ikuyo—"

Lin You said in a deep voice, took a sip of MAX coffee, raised his eyes again, looked into the girl's bright, slightly troubled yellow-green eyes, and continued: "...Are you willing to give the rest of your life to me?"

Paji——

Hong Xia raised her fair little hand, made a knife-like gesture, and gently tapped Lin You. Frowning, she said:

"Alright, alright, stop playing, You..."

"Didn't you always say that you wanted Kita-chan to come back as the lead singer?"

"Come on, let's properly welcome Kita-chan to the club!"

is that so?

Lin You nodded at this, trying to recall his previous memories - "Come back, Kita Ikuyo, my proudest belief!"

Oh, it seems that it is true.

"Cough cough..."

Lin Youka coughed and straightened his sleeves. Yuki, standing beside him, reached out a small hand to smooth out the wrinkles at his brother's collar and adjust his tie. For a moment, the Sobu High uniforms looked like perfectly tailored suits.

"Xiduo, welcome to join our "End Band"!"

"Ah, ummm!"

Kita nodded in cooperation and smiled.

Lin You then said, "We want to form a band for life?"

"what……"

Kita looked embarrassed.

Hong Xia frowned and said with full authority: "You!"

"Sorry... I've used this combo so many times that I've got it by muscle memory." Lin You said apologetically.

"...?"

Hear the words.

Kita just sat upright with a slightly happy smile.

Perhaps it was a little hard to accept that the keyboardist and vocalist, who was so reserved and cool on stage, seemed quite easygoing... but also gentle in this recording studio.

Just like last night, I made some weird jokes, but I don't mean to blame you at all?

"Well... I can't play the guitar, and I've been a runaway before... Can I really join the "End Band"...?" Kita said again.

"Kita-san... Uh, that! Ahem! Ahem!!"

Pochi stammered, trying to say something encouraging. But she seemed allergic to such positive words, and before she could even utter a single word, she coughed for a long time.

Kita patted Pochi gently to help her breathe more slowly, her movements caring and careful, but Pochi seemed to tremble even more violently in the face of such a warm and beautiful gesture.

It seems that Hongxia's calm, gentle, and motherly care makes it easier for Pochi to accept her. It will probably take her some time to get used to Kita's presence.

At this time.

Liang said, "Yudai, just join."

"Senior..." Kita was moved by what he heard.

"Anyway, no one can go against You's decision..." Liang said again.

"Ah...?" Kita tilted his head.

Could it be that Yuu-senpai is...the leader of the band!?

She looked at Lin You somewhat nervously.

"No... Hong Xia is the captain." Lin You corrected.

"Eh hey... there's no such thing as a captain. Yuu is actually the backbone of the band, and Pochi-chan was also the main contributor today!"

Hong Xia said modestly.

Look—Sheng Hongxia is humble!

Lin You must emphasize: "Hong Xia is the god who will end our band!"

"Yuu...you're here again...!"

Hongxia was a little shy.

He always praises himself so bluntly, it's too exaggerated, what a god...

Even though I've never done anything remarkable. Hongxia felt her face flush. Yu was the one who ended the band... "God," because of him, STARRY's popularity has skyrocketed, and it seems like I can realize my dream too...

...and take my sister's share along with me.

and so……

"Why do you keep saying such weird things..."

Lin You was very pious. He raised his hands, looked up and said, "Because the sacred Hongxia loves every ordinary one of us."

"How are you ordinary?!"

"what……"

Hear the words.

There seemed to be a hint of surprise in Lin You's eyes.

So... in Hong Xia's eyes, I'm not ordinary at all? The "bold promise" I made at the opening ceremony - to become someone special - might have come true.

Then who can help me fill in the gap of my identity as an "ordinary high school student"?

Lin You suddenly became depressed.

"Yu?"

"Mosimoxi?"

Snapped--

When the call failed, Hong Xia put her hands together and clapped them lightly.

Lin You: “Ah.”

Hong Xia: "Okay, okay, I'm back to my senses. Let's get down to business, okay? - About the ending of the band's future direction!"

She placed her hands on the table, moved her delicate hips forward, and leaned forward slightly. A faint, energetic and lovely smile appeared on her face, and she continued:

"First of all, welcome Kita-chan again! Everyone applaud! Clap, clap, clap..."

Ryo and Pochi clapped their hands in unison.

aside.

Yuki took out a firework from somewhere, pulled it open, and it exploded with a bang, bursting into colorful flowers.

Congratulations! Congratulations!

"Thank you, thank you..."

Kita pursed his lips and spoke with a slightly trembling voice.

What's going on...isn't there anyone who blames me for running away?

"I'm the runaway guitarist..." Kita emphasized.

"But, if it weren't for Kita-chan, we wouldn't have met Pochi-chan, right?" Hongxia said directly.

"I... can't play the guitar at all. I can only make a 'bang bang' noise." Kita blushed a little, suppressed his shyness, and continued to vent.

"Is there a possibility...Xiduo, actually, what you bought was...a bass." Lin You said with difficulty, as if trying to suppress his smile.

He looked towards Kita expectantly.

really.

The girl smiled and shook her head.

Kita said confidently and cutely:

"Huh? How is that possible... I'm not that ignorant. I can still tell the difference between a bass and a guitar!"

She pulled out the multi-string bass she had mistakenly bought.
