A band simulator, but all girl-heavy!

The night was completely taken over by silence.

All that could be heard around were the friction sounds of the girls' pajamas and bedding, and their soft and lovely breathing. Apart from that, the chirping of insects gradually drifted in through the window, like a night concerto orchestra, playing this sleep-inducing serenade.

Aoi closed her eyes and gradually fell asleep.

In her dream, she felt that she had turned into a dazzling yellow dwarf star, which was at its most powerful and dazzling time. It was blooming its own light in the universe and illuminating the planets it had captured.

However, an incredible scene occurred. Planets whose masses could not possibly reach the standard to produce such activity suddenly twisted into black holes one after another, and competed to swallow her into them...

When she dreamed of this, she had actually woken up. The only thought in her confused mind was "How could I have such a strange dream that goes against scientific common sense?" But soon, she discovered something strange.

She didn't open her eyes, but she could feel a pair of hands pressing on both sides of her body. The squeezing sensation gently pulled the quilt on her body, bringing a clear and faint touch.

In addition, there was a warm and sweet breath that gently brushed across her cheek like a warm breeze, and a strand of hair that still smelled of shampoo gently brushed across her cheek, touching her skin.

Aoi was undoubtedly startled. Anyone who wakes up from a dream and finds someone lying on top of them would be extremely shocked, but for some reason she did not open her eyes. Instead, she tried desperately to hide the fact that she was awake.

If anyone has ever experienced someone staring at them while pretending to be asleep, they would probably be able to understand how she felt at that moment. Although she was pretending to be asleep with her eyes closed, her consciousness was clearer than ever before. She could hear all the movements around her and feel all the touches around her.

Because of the lack of vision caused by closing her eyes, her brain made up for it for her. She clearly imagined in her mind that a girl in the band was leaning on her sides with her hands, right above her, staring at her with burning eyes.

Aoi almost forced her eyelids to tremble, and began to wonder who would do this? Was it to play a prank or scare people? Who in the band?

If it was from this direction, was it Aine? No, because she was lying next to Aine, her hand could just touch Aine's arm, and she could also feel the warmth radiating from the girl, so it couldn't be Aine.

Lenai was lying there quietly, and Deng and Lixi didn't look like the kind of people who would do such a thing.

Could it be...

While she was still thinking hard, she felt her cheek being poked slightly by an external force. Someone's index finger poked her cheek tentatively, as if afraid of waking her up. It was light and gentle, and it gently rotated on her skin, which even felt a little itchy.

This Su Shi... is this really a prank? It's late at night, if Aoi was a little more timid, she would definitely have a heart attack.

Aoi finally felt relieved and was about to open her eyes to give Su Shi a surprise.

But the next moment, she was stunned.

Because the long hair fell slowly and spread a little on her neck and shoulders, the warm breath suddenly came closer, and before she realized what this meant, a pair of soft, warm lips with a moist touch gently pressed against her lips, leaving a deep kiss reluctantly.

She could clearly feel her lips being touched, the warmth and smoothness of being wrapped around them, and she could also feel the light suction left behind by the other person after the kiss, which was as light as an embrace, and a subtle "chirp" that quickly melted into the air.

The light yet aggressive breath belonging to Su Shi almost hit her in the face, occupying her soul and her mind at that moment.

It wasn't until Su Shi gradually left and carefully returned to her bunk that Aoi finally realized what had happened. Her blank brain seemed to have triggered a huge explosion, which exploded in her mind.

What's going on? Did Su Shi just kiss her?

This, how is this possible? Is this a dream?

Haven’t you woken up yet?

The girl only felt her cheeks burning like a boiling kettle, but she still didn't have the courage to open her eyes and peek. Her heart was pounding in her chest, causing her whole body to gradually begin to heat up.

Just like Su Shi's obscure and silent kiss, Aoi was also timid and confused, and for a moment she was completely unable to acknowledge the existence of that kiss.

[Unlocked Nagasaki Motoyo's special personal story: 'A Kiss I Don't Want to Tell'.]

Aoi, who was outside the simulator, felt numb all over.

When she first complained that everyone was being mean, she was just joking and no one would take it seriously, just like good friends who would verbally attack each other but no one would care.

But...

Huh?? Sister, you are really a bitch?

PS: I haven't been feeling well these past two days, and I've been a bit stuck. I feel like my work and rest schedule is driving me crazy, so I'd like to say sorry to everyone.

I will try to adjust my sleep schedule tomorrow, I'm so sorry!! I also hope everyone will continue to support me and give me more votes! Thank you~~~4

44: Just lie to your sisters

"Su Shi~ I might be going on a business trip for a few days. You have to take care of yourself at home alone, okay?"

Her mother's voice came through the door of the room and reached Su Shi's ears, who was still wrapped in the quilt. Then came the sound of high heels gently stepping on the entrance floor and the click of the door closing gently.

Like a gust of wind, she took away everything before she could respond, leaving only silence and loneliness in the room.

Su Shi slowly turned over in bed, her sapphire eyes looked around the empty bedroom in a daze, she lowered her eyelids in silence, and chose not to get up.

She couldn't help but raise her right hand, staring blankly at her slender white fingers, but it seemed as if she had returned to last night's dream through the reality before her.

No, this is no longer a dream for her.

All of this is a projection of reality, perhaps something that will happen in the future, or perhaps something that has already happened in a parallel world...

In that world, Xiao Kui successfully led the new band to set goals. Although the girl named Aine always prevented her from being alone with Xiao Kui, overall they lived a very happy life.

Then, with the arrival of the Golden Week in that world, at Xiaokui's suggestion, their new band decided to embark on a three-day hot spring trip, and do some training during the trip to improve everyone's ensemble skills.

Riki was originally the opponent, but he switched sides after finding that Deng seemed to be very supportive. Lena was directly bought over by Xiaokui with matcha parfait and soba noodles, and Aine was even more supportive of this activity.

So, the group easily decided on their destination - the Saotome family's only Japanese-style villa in Shimobe River, Minobu-cho, Minamikoma District, Yamanashi Prefecture. The Aoi family's driver drove a van with all the luggage and musical instruments loaded, and then passed through the high-rise buildings and entered the world of Yamanashi Prefecture full of mountains and green forests.

She remembers everything...

She remembered that before leaving, Aoi took a handheld camera and said she wanted to record a vlog of this hot spring trip as a memory of their band's beautiful beginning.

She still remembered that when everyone was in the car, she and Aine were fighting for the seat next to Aoi, but in the end, Lenna snatched it away without saying a word.

She still remembered that Mount Fuji gradually emerged in the view of the mountain road, and Aoi encouraged Deng to lead everyone to sing together, letting everyone's singing float towards Mount Fuji.

She remembered the sky in Yamanashi Prefecture, so blue it was almost transparent, the trees there with their new green leaves in late spring, Xiaokui's house nestled along the path of the Shimobe River, and the deer startled by the clear water flowing in the first-floor hall.

She remembered that Xiaokui took out the yukata that her mother had treasured here, and asked everyone to put it on and take photos around the room.

She remembered that Xiao Kui had her beige hair tied up high and was wearing a beautiful yukata with a sunflower pattern. Her slender white neck was no longer hidden by her long hair, revealing her elegant figure. She was charming, like she was strolling under the Sumida River Fireworks Festival. Even without fireworks, her smile was colorful, dazzling and pleasant.

They barely had any training that day, because when they first arrived everyone was preoccupied with playing. Xiao Kui and Aine were clamoring to go see the hot springs, Lenai couldn't get up from the soft sofa after sitting in the car for too long, and Deng was attracted by the surroundings and kept staring out the window.

Later, even Lixi couldn't do anything about them. After all, she really wanted to walk around the neighborhood with Deng.

The first day ended almost in laughter and fun. We went to the snack street near Shimobe River Street together and tried the Yamanashi specialty Minobu mantou. Aine also bought a lot of local souvenirs. In the evening, we went to a nearby hot spring resort to soak in the hot springs.

It's as beautiful as the crychic memories of having Xiaokui, and even slightly better than that memory.

However, she felt that something was slowly happening to her heart.

It was obviously beautiful, obviously happy, and obviously moved to the point of wanting to cry, but while soaking in the hot spring, looking at Xiaokui sitting in the steaming hot water, her graceful body revealing a vague outline through the misty fog, she felt an irresistible thought in her heart.

I wish I was the only one by Xiaokui's side at this moment.

She wanted to banish this thought, to try to reject it. It was wrong after all. Hadn't she always dreamed of returning to the crychic good old days? Returning to a harmonious and happy community?

Such happiness and beautiful memories must be created by everyone together.

Why is it that only Xiaokui is fine? Without everyone, what are all her efforts so far worth?

Is it because Xiaokui is so beautiful that she can overshadow all other memories?

Su Shi couldn't figure it out. She was stuck in a dilemma that she couldn't break free from. She was greedy for the warmth that Xiao Kui brought her. She wanted to use Xiao Kui to create the "home-like" band atmosphere she had always dreamed of, but she also hoped that Xiao Kui would only look at her.

is this okay?

No, no! Of course it's good, of course it's great... She did this entirely for the band, so that everyone can return to such a beautiful past. She didn't work so hard for herself.

Xiao Kui gave her strength and motivation, so it was normal for her to rely on Xiao Kui a little.

But...why would she do such a thing?

Just like everyone who thinks of shameful memories, they can't help but want to completely erase this memory from their mind. Her brows suddenly jumped and she clenched her hands tremblingly.

She did things in her dream that she never dared to think about.

Since it was a training camp, everyone slept on the floor in the same room. Because of the noisy pillow fight in the evening, everyone was a little tired and fell asleep quickly.

Aoi's left and right were occupied by Aine and Lenai respectively. In the dream, Su Shi was next to Aine. It seemed that she was unwilling, or out of the afterglow of the day's excitement, she carefully walked past Aine and approached the sleeping Aoi.

Xiaokui's sleeping face is peaceful, and her delicate and cute facial features become even more charming in this quietest moment. Her pink lips are slightly open, and from time to time you can hear some delicate murmurs, which is very cute.

She originally just wanted to see Xiaokui, really just wanted to see her.

Somehow, she felt that Xiaokui's cheek was really soft, as soft as jelly, so she stretched out her finger and subconsciously poked it lightly, feeling the warmth brought by the soft and elastic skin.

Xiaokui didn't wake up.

At that moment, she thought she was being controlled by the demon in her dream.

She just thought Xiaokui was really pretty, and every inch of skin on her pretty face touched her aesthetic taste. It was pleasing to the eyes at ordinary times, and at this moment it was like a cat's paw scratching her heart.

She was just curious about what Xiaokui's cute, moist lips felt like. It must be like this...

Otherwise, why couldn't she resist pressing her lips against his?

The soft feeling with a hint of the unique fragrance of sunflower has not dissipated yet. The feeling of dizziness and burning cheeks when she just got up once again flooded into her mind. She couldn't help but touch her lips, her face bright red.

This isn't right, this isn't right! Is this even reality? Her feelings for Xiaokui are pure and innocent. She simply feels that Xiaokui is gentle and kind, like a real sunflower.

She just...

She just likes Xiaokui very much.

How can you desecrate the pure and clean Xiao Kui with such a thing...

Su Shi hurriedly lifted the quilt, slowly got out of bed, stared blankly at the messy sheets, and hesitated for a long time before making a decision.

She gathered the sheets and nightgown and put them in the washing machine, put them away, and hung them out to dry before slowly packing her things and getting ready to go to school.

She could hardly bear it any longer, she wanted to see Xiao Kui...8

45: Kita, Kita!

Band Simulator, Band Simulator...

What exactly is this simulator for? Isn't the core purpose to let her join a band and become a legend as a member?

Isn't this how the "gold finger" game should work? Overcoming previous setbacks through trial and error, successfully simulating increases her experience and instrumental skills, ultimately helping her become a talented band member in real life...

Isn't that the normal route? An alternative system that helps her advance triumphantly! A pastime tool that creates beautiful memories of youth.

She was so convinced at first until Su Shi secretly kissed her in the simulation.

At this time, when I looked at the 'like' in Su Shi's favorability, I gradually felt that something was wrong. At first I thought it was just the kind of like between good friends, but good friends probably wouldn't sneak up on you and kiss you while you were sleeping.

Is this a dating simulator disguised as a band, or is it a band cheat? How can it trigger a true love storyline? While there's always been a fanbase for girl band anime these days, those projects are supposedly limited to friendship. There's no way they're actually having a love affair in the original story, right?

Did she make a wrong choice? Did it cause the relationship between the band to deteriorate? Was she being too nice to Su Shi and the others?

But...it's just a simulation game, so it shouldn't have any impact, right? As long as I avoid increasing Su Shi's favorability, it's fine. Besides getting a kiss, there doesn't seem to be any significant loss, right?

Although she was so shocked by the plot last night that she interrupted the simulation on the spot, after waking up the next day, Aoi let it go and classified the matter as unimportant.

This kind of thing would be a bit dangerous in real life, but it's very popular in the game. Who doesn't have a little vanity? Being liked by others is not a bad thing, especially when the person who likes her is a gentle, cute and beautiful girl.

So, Aoi put the experience of the simulator behind her, thinking that she had just had a strange erotic dream, and went to school happily.

It was still a peaceful day. I played the role of "Saotome Class Leader" on campus, listened to the lectures carefully, socialized seriously, and then waited for the school bell to ring.

After school, the rest of the time is Aoi’s band time!

She immediately left the class and went to the agreed location, where she found two senior students waiting there. They chatted with each other and then rushed to the 'starry' that Hong Xia mentioned.

"By the way, Xiaokui, do you have good news today?"

The three of them were walking on the way to their destination. The afternoon sun was still bright, but it was gradually tinged with a layer of dimness. The sun was hanging in the upper part of the sky like a big light bulb with gradually running out of power, and the shadow of the building was basically cut diagonally into an elongated shape.

Hong Xia walked in the middle of the three people as usual, her ahoge twitching as she spoke, a bright smile on her face as she chattered excitedly to Aoi, "I've discussed this with my sister! As long as we can find a guitarist, we can arrange a performance at the livehouse soon!"

Yes, that guitarist will run away before the show, forcing you to go out and pick up a better guitarist.

Aoi complained silently in her heart, but still showed a surprised expression on her face. She covered her mouth with her hands and agreed with Hongxia like a little girl who had never seen the world.

"Really? That's amazing, Ijichi-san~! It's really rare to see a band our age performing directly at a livehouse!"

She definitely didn't mean to be ridiculous! Although she had performed on stage countless times in the simulator, it wasn't real after all.

"It's nothing special. Thanks to my sister's concern."

Hong Xia puffed out her chest with great satisfaction, a smug smile on her face.

"Well, there really aren't any great ones. A few years ago, there were a few really great student bands like Poppin' Party, Roselia, and Afterglow. They were all very famous. High school girl bands are a common topic now."

Liang pinched his smooth chin and responded to Hong Xia's modest words without mercy, "In this era, perhaps we need to strengthen the rock elements to stand out."

"Don't bother with your words!"
