The girl fell to the ground trembling and seriously injured, almost losing her soul.

"I asked my dad for two years' pocket money and New Year's money in advance..."

thump.

The girl "died" on the spot.

Liang came over, poked Kita's cheek with his hand, and said regretfully:

"Yudai, passed away again."

Hong Xia: "Don't keep killing Kita-chan!"

……

Moon stars are rare.

Today's STARRY band hadn't finished their performance, but the hall was still bustling with activity. Qian Shu had been temporarily crowned the "girlfriend" of this livehouse (a self-proclaimed title), busying herself behind the bar. As for the manager—

"That brat... wouldn't he do anything to Hong Xia in there, right?"

Xingge muttered and walked towards the recording studio.

Today seems to be the day when the band welcomes new members, so something like that won’t happen... No, it should be said that it shouldn’t happen at any time.

The tsundere, sister-con shop manager kept a stern expression on his face as he peeked out from the recording studio door.

She faintly heard the ethereal sound of a piano swaying in the recording studio.

what is that?

Deep, quiet, beautiful... a profoundly ethereal melody. It seemed to carry an infinite sadness and melancholy, yet also a sense of freedom...

Xingge caught a glimpse of Lin You's profile, her handsome features, her deep eyes immersed in the music, and her slender ten fingers moving up and down on the black and white piano keys.

The melody was so stunning that Xingge had to let go of her prejudice against Lin You and listen to this performance that seemed like a show of skill—she had no choice but to do so.

What is he playing...

A grand and magnificent piece of music, played for a few high school girls...

""You will know you're reborn tonight——"

--Ding.

The rhythm and emotions build up layer by layer, and suddenly, at a staccato point, it stops abruptly.

Gone?

Gone! ?

As if the climax moment was strangled, Xingge rushed in through the door.

“—Hey!…Why did you stop so suddenly!?”

"Wow... Onei-chan?" Hongxia seemed startled. She patted her delicate chest, frowned slightly and said, "Don't make such a loud noise suddenly..."

"Uh……"

Xingge pursed her lips.

He frowned and walked towards Lin You. He looked down at Lin You, who was sitting at the keyboard with a handsome posture as if playing the piano, and asked, "Why did you stop?"

Lin You: "Next is the payment part."

Xingge: “?”

Lin You stood up slowly and patted Xingge on the shoulder. Xingge gave him a resentful look in return. After a moment, he muttered in annoyance, "Don't touch me suddenly."

Too arrogant.

If you're so arrogant, of course I won't play or sing for you for free, right?

Lin You said:

"Look... Kita has also been 'reborn'."

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Xingge turned her beautiful red eyes towards the red-haired girl beside her. Because of her melancholy mood, her beautiful eyes instead had the aura of a gangster boss.

"You're alive," Kita said weakly.

Xiduo, who is just a "little angel", is completely unable to compete with the "big devil" like Xingge...

"Ou Nei-chan!...Don't be mean to my teammates!" Hong Xia said at this time, holding Kita's hand, and then smiled lightly, "But...actually, I also want to listen to the whole song, You?"

"...Since Hongxia wants to hear it, there's nothing I can do."

What if Xingge heard it for nothing? What a shame...

Lin Youxin said that if she performed the song "Call of Silence" again in its entirety - the melody of less than three minutes, with its ups and downs, would definitely not be enough to show the epic story of the giants and Ymir.

but.

It was enough for Lin You to appreciate the girls’ astonished expressions.

This is what he expected to see. Perhaps... at this moment, Kita is still feeling guilty and hesitant?

So--

"Kita, can you talk to me alone for a while?"

In the blank space after the song ended, Lin You spoke.

"what……"

Xiduo nodded slightly, then followed Lin You out of the studio. The remaining girls looked at each other in bewilderment.

Liang: "Bullying within the team?"

Pochi sighed and retreated into the mango box.

Hongxia reached out and tapped Liang,

"You wouldn't do that, Ryo! Don't talk nonsense!"

In fact--

"I'm sorry, Yuu-senpai! I didn't dare to say it directly in front of Ryo-senpai just now... Actually, I still have a crush on you, so my motives for joining the band are not pure!"

Just walked out of STAARY.

Walking up the stairs, the outside air hit him. The early summer breeze was slightly cool, and the night breeze seemed quiet and pleasant. Before Lin You could take in the night view of Shimokitazawa, the girl behind him suddenly "confessed."

"Xiduo...is this what you think?" Lin You said in response.

Kita lowered his head upon hearing this.

As if feeling guilty, her red hair took on a hazy, unreal quality in the dim night. Perhaps due to her emotions, it wasn't as shiny as it looked indoors.

The girl whispered, "I feel like a band is like a second family. We might even spend more time together than with a real family. Everyone's working towards the same dream, and that's a wonderful thing that transcends friendship and love... Since I've never participated in club activities, I've always longed for this kind of thing..."

Lin You: "So?"

Kita: "So I want to join the End Band and become Ryo-senpai's daughter!"

This is really... a rather subtle statement.

Does Kita sometimes have this weird side? But it makes it seem more real.

Lin You couldn't help but smile, but instead of blaming him, he said:

"Actually...me too. I want Hong Xia to be my mother!"

"……what?"

It seems a little different, right?

Kita seemed confused and tilted his head slightly.

She has no romantic feelings, she just simply admires the handsome senior...

Lin You continued, "The reason I joined the Ending Band was actually because I was targeting Hong Xia."

"Senior Hongxia?"

"Yeah... Don't you think Hong Xia is simply the perfect girl? Gentle, pure, considerate, reliable..." Lin You said slowly and seriously:

"Hongxia has a calm and tolerant temperament, just like an angel. She makes me feel safe and friendly. Every time the ensemble ends, Hongxia always smiles at me and says that this time it's all thanks to me..."

"She's so cute, she's so beautiful..."

"But Hongxia is just a delicate girl with her own worries. Hongxia told me that her sister used to have a band, but gave it up for her. She wanted to bring her sister along to become a popular band and make STARRY even more famous..."

"..."

Kita listened quietly.

At first, it felt subtle, even outrageous. It was a little strange, right? It was a little strange to abruptly "confess" to a girl you were just with, right in front of her.

Is it like preaching?

Madam, could you spare a moment of your time? I'd like to tell you about my guiding light and my savior—Saint Hongxia!!!

So weird...

But... the more Kita listened, the more sincere it seemed.

The look on his face as he told his story and expressed his love was more affectionate than any movie the girl had ever seen.

In the outline of the night, the girl couldn't help but look up, lost in thought, her eyes fixed on his handsome profile, almost merging with his affectionate eyes...

Kita shook his head.

The affectionate senior is so beautiful...

...I almost had some unnecessary thoughts.

Senior You really likes Senior Hong Xia, he must be a very loyal person, right?

The simple Kita didn’t understand - Lin You’s eyes were so beautiful, even when he looked at dogs he was so affectionate!

"...I don't have a dream, but I can protect Hong Xia's dream."

Lin You said softly, raised his head and looked at the night sky of Xia Beize.

Clouds drifted by, and moonlight streamed down upon STARRY. A faint clamor seemed to reach my ears; it was another live performance in the livehouse.

"My joy is to make her dream a reality in this world. So, it doesn't matter if I don't show up. As long as she is the one who depicts the dream, it's enough."

"........."

Kita pursed his lips, his eyes flickering slightly, somewhat moved.

So... Yuu-senpai really has no intention of becoming the lead singer? Also, Yuu-senpai really likes Nijika-senpai...

It seems so.

It turns out that Momoka-senpai from the band called Shinkawasaki is not his girlfriend?

Kita felt that he had figured everything out.

She bit her lip lightly and said, "I...will support You-senpai!"

"Ah...really?"

Hearing this, Lin You lowered his head and looked at the red-haired girl beside him.

"Yes!... However, I don't have any romantic admiration for Ryo-senpai, which is different from Yu-senpai..." Kita said again.

Sixteen years old.

A girl who has not yet experienced her first love seems a little shy when touching on such a topic.

Kita shook her head gently, her red hair swaying slightly in a side ponytail. The girl then whispered, "And... Yu-senpai... if I join the band, do you mean... that I should be the lead guitarist?"

"Correct."

Lin You nodded.

After receiving a positive answer, Kita immediately said, "But... my level is so poor, and I want to be the most conspicuous guitar vocalist... won't it ruin Hong Xia's dream?"

can you?

For Yu Linyou, he definitely doesn't think so.
