My second life is a bit strange?

The two followed the map to the mobile animal station. As soon as they entered, Amamiya Ruo felt herself being stared at by many eyes, with the pigeons all eyeing the fries in her hand.

She quickly packed the fries into her bag and followed behind Feng.

"Meow."

A black cat crouched on the ground, licking its paws.

Amamiya Ruyu immediately stopped moving, squatted down and rummaged through her bag, finding a cat toy, a toy mouse, a toy salted fish, and a laser pointer.

Why do you carry these things with you?

"Because... there's a cat on my way home, and I usually play with it for a while."

Seeing that the kitten was ignoring her, she pouted and waved the cat toy in front of it, which immediately caught the kitten's attention. The kitten reached out to grab it and meowed.

Amamiya Ruyu seemed to have forgotten about Kaede's existence and started imitating her as well.

"Meow~"

Chapter 172 Amamiya Dew Wants to Be Touched

"I also have a black cat like that at home."

"?" Amamiya looked at him in confusion. She had been to her brother's house many times, but she had never seen a cat.

"I misspoke, it's a friend's house," Feng quickly explained. He also squatted down, took the cat, and even stopped playing with the cat toy, running straight to his side and sniffing at his shoes.

Then it happily rubbed against him, meowing incessantly. Feng reached out to pet it, and the cat enjoyed it so much that it raised its butt and its tail high.

Amamiya was so shocked that she didn't even notice the cat toy she was holding fell to the ground, and she lowered her head in disappointment.

Other cats gathered around Feng, some even lying on his shoes and taking a nap.

"The cats really like my brother."

"I've been loved by small animals since I was a child."

Feng picked up the black cat, rubbed its little head, and purred contentedly.

Amamiya, her face flushed, covered her head, startled by what she had just thought of.

How embarrassing.

The image of being patted on the head last time is still vivid in my mind.

Feng saw that she was staring blankly with her head down, not even hearing him speak.

"What's wrong?"

"No... I didn't want to be petted on the head by my brother like a kitten."

As soon as Amamiya finished speaking, she covered her mouth with her hand, accidentally revealing what was on her mind.

Feng put down the cat in his hands, affectionately placed it on Amamiya's head, and gently stroked it. The warmth of his palm and his gentle eyes made Amamiya squint her eyes comfortably.

They played around there for a while and then went to the restaurant to eat something.

Next to the restaurant was an arcade, much larger than those in the city center. Amamiya looked at the claw machine, which contained a rabbit plush toy wearing a hoodie.

【want to! 】

Want to come play?

"Ah."

Feng exchanged a lot of game coins, inserted one, manipulated the machine, accurately hooked the doll and successfully grabbed it, but it quickly fell down.

"What a pity, let's have Xiao Lu instead."

They had to try more than ten times to finally get the doll out, and afterwards, no matter where they went, Amamiya would hold the rabbit doll in her arms.

"I had so much fun today!"

The sky was completely dyed orange-red. Amamiya stood in front, and Kaede put her arm around her shoulder from behind, raising her phone to take a group photo.

"There will be fireworks later, let's go find a good spot." He took Amamiya's hand and walked towards the tourist area. The sky gradually darkened, and various colorful lights came on.

Fireworks burst into bloom in the sky, and they stopped going up, as the area was already crowded with people.

Gazing at the colorful fireworks filling the sky, she was filled with joy and wanted to say something, but the words that came out of her mouth changed.

"Thank you for inviting me to come over, brother."

"Let's come together again next time, and invite Xiao Gui along."

"...Um."

Actually, she preferred to come with her brother alone. Feng didn't know if it was just his imagination, but Xiao Lu seemed a little depressed.

Happy times are always short, like fireworks in the sky. After they fade away, a strange sadness lingers in your heart.

It was quite late when they got home. Kaede noticed that Amamiya's heels were red from being rubbed raw by her shoes: "It must hurt a lot."

"Fortunately."

He crouched down and gestured for Amamiya to lie on his back: "Let me carry you."

"Thank you."

Feng lifted her thigh with his hand, feeling her warm breath in his ear. After a brief silence, Amamiya whispered in his ear.

"Brother, are you free after the end of the year?"

"Ah."

"Can you come to the library with me? I have exams at the beginning of the semester and I want to go there to study. There are a lot of questions I don't understand and I want to ask you."

"Sure, let's go together then."

"Thank you."

Amamiya smiled happily. Being pampered by her brother like this was a very happy thing. The gentle evening breeze blew away her already little unhappiness.

...

On the day of Goto's performance, Kaede arrived at the exhibition hall as promised. Hearing some noise backstage, she pushed open the door and saw a Gundam made of wooden boxes standing there.

"Class monitor, you're here."

Goto's voice came from inside.

Maple stepped forward and looked him over, then lifted the cover on his head: "I didn't expect your cooking skills to be so good, Pochi-chan."

“This was made for me by my dad.”

"That's something your uncle could do."

It seemed the rehearsal wasn't going well. Nijika was talking to everyone about the problems they had just encountered, while Goto and Kita, after listening to the rehearsals of other bands, had completely lost their confidence.

Kita even suggested putting effort into other areas: "Rock, paper, scissors, the loser smashes the guitar."

"Um... well, let's just forget about it." Goto hugged her guitar and hid far away; it was her precious treasure.

"Don't worry, the atmosphere is great today," Feng reassured them. "I just came from the front, and there were quite a few couples there."

However, this statement only dampened Goto's spirits.

"Did I say something wrong?"

Hongxia stood next to Feng with her hands on her hips and sighed, "Senior Baiyin, please don't worry about them."

"Then I'll wait for you to come on stage. I won't disturb your rehearsal."

After Feng left, Hongxia gathered everyone together: "Boqi-chan, you know the meaning of this song, right?"

"Hmm." That night, after dropping Kaede off at home, Goto couldn't wait to sneak into his room, open the bottle, and take out the paper inside—a sheet of music.

"A promising young man?"

Goto couldn't wait to grab her guitar and hide in the cupboard, where she tried playing a few pieces. The guitar solo she played once again deeply impressed her.

[The class monitor is amazing!]

It's like light suddenly appearing in a dark world, something to be longed for.

Humming the lyrics, "Don't leave me alone..."

I wonder what the class monitor who wrote this piece has to do with his past.

"Today is also my sister's birthday, and I want her to see the best performance."

Nijika's voice pulled her back from her memories, and Goto extended his hand: "Let's make this our home ground together!"

I don't want to let my class monitor down.

[Christmas or couples? We set the mood!]

"Boqi said something really cool! I spent ages memorizing the lyrics for this song!"

Kita craves recognition and wants to show those who say she sings badly what she's made of.

"Um!!"

The four people put their hands together and walked confidently onto the stage.

Feng sat with the boss, while Xingge was somewhat worried about her younger sister and the others, and was distracted while chatting.

With a snap, the lights immediately dimmed, and cheers erupted inside.

Their previous performances had earned them some fans, but most people chose to remain silent and observe. For regulars at this exhibition hall, Goto and his team were completely unfamiliar.

Before the curtain was even drawn back, the intro began, and the powerful drumbeats immediately heated up the atmosphere.

Chapter 173 Bai Yinfeng Wants to Train

Each band had to play three pieces, the first two of which were original compositions by Ryo and Goto themselves.

The fans were quite excited about the first song, until the third one.

“Promising young people? I’ve never heard them play this before.”

Xingge rested her chin on her hand, and seeing her sisters perform as expected, she felt relieved.
