In the music series, the male protagonist writes a self-help manual for the inner world

Chen Xinghua sighed. He didn't expect that this woman was so important and actually wanted to bring back a band that had already died.

Based on the time when the last tweet he saw from the 'CRYCHIC' social account was sent out, Chen Xinghua deduced that this junior high school band was already dead.

The band's last tweet was sent half a year ago.

"Does that mean I, Aine, and Rakuna are no longer necessary or even needed?"

Nagasaki Suyo did not answer Chen Xinghua's question.

But in this case, no answer is already an answer.

"cut……"

Chen Xinghua's tone became more and more contemptuous, "...It really is."

He used to think that Nagasaki Suye just didn't want to make friends with Deng's friends, but now it seems that this woman is not ordinary.

If necessary, this woman might do something to hurt Aine and Lenai so that they can smoothly withdraw from Deng's nameless band and make room for Xiangzi and Wakaba Mu.

By the way, is it true that high school bands must consist of only five people? Is it not possible to form a multi-person band of six or even seven people?

"What are you going to do next?"

Nagasaki Suyo's body felt a little weak, and she knelt down on the ground from the stairs.

But she still grabbed what she thought was a lifeline.

Because Nagasaki Sushi felt that since Chen Xinghua did not directly express her despicable thoughts in front of everyone, she chose to explain it to her in private.

This proves that there is room for recovery.

He must have wanted to gain something from me, so he chose to say it in private.

"Well, it depends on the situation."

Chen Xinghua met Nagasaki Suye's blue eyes that were filled with fear, confusion, and tension.

As expected, she wanted to get something from me. At this moment, a tiny amount of vitality was injected into Nagasaki Suye's slightly soft body.

...There's still room! There's still room.

"What do you want, money or..."

Nagasaki Suyo was speechless for a moment, because she noticed that she didn't seem to have much to give to Chen Xinghua.

Money? Although her pocket money was at the level of a young lady, it was only at the level of an ordinary young lady. It was not at the level where a month's pocket money could buy a person's life.

And Chen Xinghua didn't look like he needed her money.

The musical keyboard and effects pedals he brought into the practice room were obviously very expensive and did not seem like something an ordinary student could afford.

"Please don't tell Xiao Deng or Li Xi about this... As long as it's something I can do, Vatasi, I'm willing to do anything."

Nagasaki Suyo's tone was very pleading.

Connections? Resources? Although she was a student at Tsukinomori Girls' Academy, only the daughters of politicians, entertainers, chaebols, and other high-ranking figures, or top talents who won awards in major competitions, could attend.

But he was just a student, and a student who was able to transfer to such an aristocratic school because his mother became rich.

She really didn't have any connections or resources to provide to Chen Xinghua.

After all, Nagasaki Soyo is just a student, a student who can neither shoulder the responsibility of other people's lives nor even his own life.

...Could it be the body? This thought occurred to Nagasaki Suyo as she lowered her head and looked at her chest, which was much broader than Chihaya Aine's.

Men like big things.

Chen Xinghua frowned. Seeing that Nagasaki Suye was about to collapse on the ground, he knew that her psychological defenses were almost broken.

If it was a negotiation expert, no, even if it was just a person with normal IQ, as long as he was willing, it would be easy to get a lot of things from her.

So what should I get from her... maybe just information.

Including information about why Deng confused the concepts of band and friendship, and information about Xiangzi's life before bankruptcy.

These questions may be answered by the story of 'CRYCHIC' told by Nagasaki Motoyo.

Chapter 120 Why rebuild CRYCHIC?

"Why are you rebuilding 'CRYCHIC' with the help of a band called Lantern, Nagasaki Suyo."

Chen Xinghua said to Nagasaki Sushi seriously, "Answer me seriously, please take every word I say seriously."

He deliberately emphasized the tone of the word "serious".

If he didn't answer the questions seriously, he would definitely destroy the possibility of "CRYCHIC" being resurrected. This was the thought in Nagasaki Motoyo's mind.

So Nagasaki Suyo quickly calmed her mind and prepared to answer Chen Xinghua's question with all her strength.

…Why go back to “CRYCHIC”.

"I'm doing this for everyone."

"Answer my questions seriously."

Chen Xinghua knocked on the railing in dissatisfaction. "What do you mean by 'for everyone'? Besides you, who else wants to revive 'CRYCHIC' like you do?"

Let’s not talk about the green-haired girl Wakaba Mutsu, whom Chen Xinghua doesn’t know, let’s talk about Toyokawa Shoko, Shiina Tatsuki and Takamatsu Tomo, whom Chen Xinghua knows.

According to Chen Xinghua's knowledge, these three people from the old 'CRYCHIC' did not seem to have any intention of reviving 'CRYCHIC'.

Toyokawa Shoko, who spent most of her time studying and working, didn't seem to have it. Shiina Ryuki, who thought that "Kasuga Shadow", which belonged to "CRYCHIC", could be played by people who were not members of the band "CRYCHIC", didn't seem to have it. Takamatsu Touma, who formed a band with people who were not members of the band "CRYCHIC", didn't seem to have it either.

"Answer my question seriously, Nagasaki Suyo-san."

"No one asked you to rebuild 'CRYCHIC'."

Chen Xinghua's cold words caused real damage to Miss Nagasaki Motoyo.

No one asked her to rebuild 'CRYCHIC', this was all just her own idea... right?

"Absolutely not. Everyone needs 'CRYCHIC'!"

Nagasaki Suyo whispered firmly, "Xiaodeng, Lixi, Xiaoxiang, and Mu, everyone absolutely needs CRYCHIC."

Nagasaki Suyo must refute Chen Xinghua's remarks, even if this may lead to things developing in a direction that is not favorable to her.

Because once the reason of 'rebuilding 'CRYCHIC' for everyone' is revealed.

Then everything that Nagasaki Suyo has done so far to rebuild 'CRYCHIC' is false, it is all for her own satisfaction, and it is all done only for herself.

"Xiao Deng, Li Xi, Xiao Xiang, Mu... Miss Nagasaki Suyo."

Looking at Nagasaki Suyo's face filled with anger, Chen Xinghua's expression remained indifferent, so indifferent that it would scare Nagasaki Suyo.

If he showed even the slightest bit of anger, annoyance or even disgust, Nagasaki Suyo would not be so scared.

But why is it so calm, the kind of calm that is enough to completely swallow up Nagasaki Motoyo, a high school girl.

“Since you think all members of ‘CRYCHIC’ need ‘CRYCHIC’, did you forget to add another name after the names of those who need ‘CRYCHIC’?”

Chen Xinghua said slowly.

"What should I add? How about Nagasaki Suyo?"

"Did you forget to add it, or did you not want to add it?"

Nagasaki Suyo read the thing that frightened her the most from Chen Xinghua's calm black pupils.

"Do you think that by not adding your name, you can cover up your selfish behavior?"

"……I."

Nagasaki Suyo's spirit returns to reality.

Chen Xinghua lowered his head and looked at Nagasaki Suyo whose figure was getting smaller and smaller.

Her plan would never succeed as long as she left a vacant spot for Toyokawa Shoko in the band she was trying to rebuild, 'CRYCHIC'.

Recalling the 'CRYCHIC' group photo he had just seen on his phone, Chen Xinghua realized in an instant that it was impossible for Toyokawa Shoko to return to 'CRYCHIC'.

Because in that photo, Toyokawa Shoko is wearing the same Tsuki no Mori school uniform as Nagasaki Suyo and Wakaba Mutsu. Judging from the time the group photo was released, it was when Toyokawa Shoko was still a junior high school student.

This means that Toyokawa Shoko attended Tsukinomori when she was in junior high school.

Anyone who can become a student of Tsuki no Mori Junior High School must be either rich or noble.

Because Tsukinomori Girls' Academy is an aristocratic girls' school, if students from ordinary families want to enter the high school department, they can also say that they have some kind of strong talent.

But the junior high school section... I'm afraid only the rich and powerful can get in. After all, there are very few people who can show their talent in elementary school.

This is in conjunction with the information that Shoko Toyokawa had suffered from malnutrition and excessive fatigue from working part-time, as well as the information that Shoko Toyokawa had enrolled in Hanaoka Girls' College.

It's easy to draw a conclusion...that is, Shoko Toyokawa's family has fallen on hard times.

With her family in decline, it was impossible for Shoko Toyokawa to return to the band 'CRYCHIC' which was just a playful affair.

'CRYCHIC' doesn't have to worry about money, but Toyokawa Shoko does.

Even Deng's current band is similar in nature to 'CRYCHIC'. It is not a professional band that can earn money to solve Xiangzi's life difficulties or even her strong self-esteem issues.

Therefore, it is impossible for Shoko Toyokawa to return to 'CRYCHIC' or join Deng's band.

Because Chen Xinghua knew very well that Toyokawa Shoko was a person with a very strong self-esteem, and would spit out the food fed to her by others when she was about to starve to death.

...This is not an exaggeration at all, because Toyokawa Shoko really made herself so malnourished and overly tired that she almost met death.

I asked her to use my money to solve her financial problems and then go form an amateur band with a group of high school students.

Shoko Toyokawa certainly couldn't accept this solution.

Even when I tried to find a suitable reason to give her the salary, she refused to do so and still tried to work hard to relieve the pressure on her self-esteem, let alone accept this even more extreme solution.

Really, can’t you be a little more shameless like Senior Liang?

Chen Xinghua inexplicably felt sorry for Toyokawa Shoko.

If Liang-senpai were in the same situation as Toyokawa Shoko, she would definitely borrow money from me without hesitation, and then say that she would pay me back after she made money from selling CDs.

"If Xiaoxiang were here, Xiaolixi wouldn't have to work so hard to compose music."

Nagasaki Suyo weakly gave evidence, "Because Xiaoxiang will easily solve the composition problem that has troubled her for a long time."

"When 'CRYCHIC' was still around, that was it."

"Boring."

Chen Xinghua gave this evaluation. This woman's understanding of Shiina Riki was not even as good as his own, who had only known her for a few weeks, or only four days according to the actual contact time.

Is Shiina Riki's hard work composing music because it's difficult? Is it because she wants to prove herself, to prove that she's not just an appendage of her sister?

After all, Maki Shiina's achievement of serving as the head of the wind orchestra club of Hanaoka Girls' Academy and winning first place in a regional orchestra competition is quite significant.

121

Chapter 121 I know what Xiao Lixi wants.

Now Nagasaki Sushi's heart is even colder than when Chen Xinghua discovered her true identity just now.

Because if her ideals are denied, she will become a clown with only herself in her mind.

…Is she really the only one who wants to rebuild 'CRYCHIC'?

"certainly not……"

Nagasaki Suyo shouted, "Ritsuki needs Shoko badly."

...I also need Xiangzi very much.

"Lixi is under so much pressure because we put everything in the band on her. Arranging the music, booking the recording studio, and organizing rehearsals for everyone are all done by Lixi."

"If Xiaoxiang were still here, he wouldn't let this happen."

“Because when ‘CRYCHIC’ was still around, all these things were done by Xiaoxiang.”

After saying that, Nagasaki Suyo covered her chest and gasped for breath, like a college student who had just finished a 1,000-meter run.

"You are really..."

Chen Xinghua lowered his head and looked at Nagasaki Suye who had been kneeling on the ground for a long time without getting up.

"I never understood the teammates I used to be with day and night."
