Akane Kurokawa found it strange.

She was certain that Yu didn't have a fever or any other illness, but Yu seemed unusually excited today.

In her impression, You should be a more composed person, right?

Moreover, during PE class, she wanted to ask Yu to help her warm up and do sit-ups, but Yu refused without even looking at her and instead randomly found a boy who, in theory, shouldn't know her very well to team up with.

It's really strange.

She probably didn't do anything wrong, or do anything that would make Yu hate her, right?

After school, on their way to Ring in a group of four, Akane wanted to discuss the day's events with her best friend, Masuzu, to see if they could clear up her doubts.

But then you suddenly realize that Zhenliang, who is usually very lively and proactive, is not only very quiet for some reason, but also deliberately walks the furthest away from Kamiya Yu. Her deep blue eyes, like the sea, seem to have suddenly turned into a dead sea, staring blankly at the world.

"real……"

Akane blinked, her doubts growing, and hesitated before speaking, but was immediately interrupted by Yukino Yukinoshita, whom she wasn't very familiar with yet: "Speaking of which, this is my first time going to a LiveHouse. I'm finally starting to feel like I'm part of a band."

"He spoke?!"

Almost simultaneously, Kamiya Yu and Kurokawa Akane exclaimed in shock.

Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes twitched slightly: "How rude of me. I'm not a particularly taciturn person, I just didn't want to speak up before."

In the past, she would definitely have been extremely aggressive and launched a sharp-tongued counterattack against Kamiya Yu and Kurokawa Akane, even if the two of them had only made an unintentional mistake.

But when she thought about what Natsukawa Masaki and Kamiya Yu had done last night to take care of her feelings, her unyielding sharp tongue was completely suppressed at this moment, and she could only express her opinion by rubbing her forehead.

It doesn't feel as good as... Mu, cute.

Kamiya Yu thought subconsciously.

Thinking this, he took a good look at the girl in front of him for the first time. She had long, straight black hair, just like Li Xi.

Xiangzi's influence was immense.

Even though he released himself three times last night, he was still too energetic today, and the way he looked at girls' bodies was a hundred times more frequent than usual.

Upon closer inspection, Yukino Yukinoshita is also a very beautiful girl. To be honest, in terms of face and temperament, if we disregard personal feelings, she is prettier than Ritsuki.

However, she is the cold type, and her breasts are very small, almost non-existent.

Most importantly, she was just a tool.

So no matter how beautiful she is, Kamiya Yu would only give her a 10 out of 10. As for Riki? Best friend, forever, she'd be at least a 90.

Obsessed with rating, Kamiya Yu was unaware that Riki, who had arrived at the LiveHouse ahead of time in Ring, was about to make a major decision.

Volume 1: Chapter 83, Section 82. Akane and Yukino's xenophobia, Motoyo is resented.

What piece are we going to practice today?

In the practice room, Yukino Yukinoshita asked curiously.

She was indeed full of curiosity about everything about LiveHouses and bands; everything here was unknown to her.

Of course, there are many things in the world that she doesn't know, and she won't be interested just because they are unknown. She knew about bands and live houses before, but she never had the idea of ​​going into depth.

What motivated her to improve wasn't the band itself, but everyone in the band.

"Let's just find something to keep our skills sharp for now... But before that, Yukinoshita, could you please go outside and get a drink? Thank you."

A term of address that conveys a sense of distance.

But this time, it wasn't that Kamiya Yu was repeating his old tricks after his previous failure; rather, he was simply changing his tune depending on the wind.

Even a blind person could sense the aloofness emanating from Yukino Yukinoshita. Even Akane, an outgoing person, only dared to call her "Yukino-san" for the time being. Besides, since he was of the opposite sex, it was more conservative to call her by her surname, so at least there would be no mistake.

Startled by the sudden order, Yukino Yukinoshita was taken aback for a moment, but she immediately realized something, nodded slightly without saying a word, and went out.

Seeing this, Akane couldn't help but worry: "Could it be that Yukino-san misunderstands and thinks we don't consider her a friend?"

 Although she didn't notice the panda incident yesterday, she did notice Yukino Yukinoshita's slightly out-of-place behavior.

The way things are now, it's easy for newcomers to overthink things, right?

“There’s no misunderstanding. Besides, if we don’t get rid of them, some things will be difficult to handle.” Kamiya Yu shook his head as he spoke, taking out an unopened panda sticker from his bag and quickly placing it on Yukino Yukinoshita’s spot.

"A gift?" Akane was taken aback.

Before she could say anything, Yukino Yukinoshita had already returned with a plate containing four drinks. She immediately noticed the sticker that had appeared out of nowhere. Although she wanted to pretend to be surprised, she ultimately lacked the talent and could only silently and as if she hadn't seen it at all, quickly putting the sticker away in front of everyone.

The first gift in life that comes from outside the family.

Not wanting to reveal the turmoil in her heart, Yukino Yukinoshita said, "I ran into Shiina outside, and she said that if we have time, we can go to their practice room."

As she spoke, she hadn't sat down since she came in, assuming that Kamiya Yu would get up and go over soon.

"Hmm? I see, I understand now. Let's start practicing."

However, to her surprise, Kamiya Yu simply nodded thoughtfully and then began practicing.

This left not only Yukinoshita, but also Kurokawa Akane and Natsukawa Masuzu completely bewildered.

Akane couldn't help but ask, "Aren't we going?"

It's obvious to anyone with eyes that You values ​​Lixi.

"No need to rush. Since Lixi is saying this, it means she doesn't want to interfere with my important business. She's just afraid that if we leave too quickly after practice, she won't have a chance. That's why she's informing me so early." Kamiya Yu waved his hand smugly. These people are making a big fuss over nothing.

How dare he question his decision regarding Lixi?

If there are three people in the world who understand Li Xi the most, one is her parents (Erxuanyi), and the other is her sister.

Therefore, Kamiya Yu could proudly say that he was the third person, second only to the other two.

Of course, he may still be quite a bit inferior to those two.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Akane completely turned into a mindless, overreacting machine.

She pursed her lips and looked at Kamiya Yu, suddenly feeling a little uncomfortable... even though he was already her ex.

Why is it that Yu's understanding and closeness with her and Zhenliang, and their current teammates, is not as deep as her understanding and closeness with Lixi and the others?

It would be great if we could change it.

Perhaps, if they can demonstrate the unity and cooperation of this new band during their live performances, they can move in that direction.

Thinking this, Akane's slender, white fingers touched Shoko's keyboard, and she began today's training. She was extremely serious and devoted all her energy to it, even more so than when she was performing on stage.

Unfortunately, the quality of music will not evolve rapidly because of such idealistic thinking.

In this four-person band, the technical levels are clearly defined. Natsukawa Masuzu is a standard professional level, and after being provoked by Hai Ling, she has brought out all her talents and is rushing towards becoming a top-notch professional like Hai Ling. She can lead an entire amateur band by herself, which is outstanding.

Secondly, there's Yukino Yukinoshita. She's already halfway to becoming a professional, and with enough practice, it's inevitable that she'll take the other foot in too.

While Kamiya Yu is a step behind Yukino Yukinoshita, the gap isn't huge; after all, his drumming skills are almost on par with Ritsuki's.

As for Akane Kurokawa, she has a very promising future and enormous potential for improvement.

Fortunately, as a professional actor, Akane has strong teamwork skills. By actively cooperating with others, Akane's keyboard skills, which are really terrible compared to the others, were finally concealed to some extent, which increased the band's progress in getting along.

As the day was drawing to a close, Kamiya Yu nodded with a hint of satisfaction and said, "Let's call it a day. Everyone did a great job."

Although Akane is an amateur among amateurs, she is not an unambitious slacker. She has always been working hard to catch up with everyone. As for Natsukawa Masuzu and Yukino Yukinoshita, if they were to be counted in C-group, they would be second only to Shoko and Mutsuko.

A makeshift operation? Half a Galactic Battleship!

If Akane had been in C-group, it would have been perfect. Riki could have used the pressure on Akane to release his inferiority complex towards Shoko, and Akane would have worked even harder under the pressure, creating a perfect perpetual motion machine.

Unfortunately, he wasn't as good at putting pressure on people as Li Xi.

All I can say is praise.

"..."

Hearing the praise that extended to everyone, Natsukawa Masuzu, who was putting her bass back in her bag with her back to the captain, paused for a moment, wanting to see Kamiya Yu's expression as she spoke, whether she was really saying it to everyone, or just feeling embarrassed to exclude Akane in front of her.

But in the end, he didn't do that and just continued to quietly tidy up the bass by himself.

Immersed in the emotion of being recognized, Akane didn't notice the strange atmosphere in time. However, Yukino Yukinoshita had already hesitated several times before speaking, but her way of speaking was comparable to Shiina Tatsuki's, so she didn't know how to resolve the situation at the moment.

Before they knew it, practice was over. They were heading to Shiina Tatsuki's practice room to see what was going on.

"Tsk!"

The one who opened the door was Nagasaki Motoyo, whom Kamiya Yuu would call Evil Number One. She was born before the pink-haired Aine appeared, and was Shoko's only supporter who was his lifelong rival. Fortunately, she hadn't fallen to the point of becoming Makoto, otherwise he would have personally dismantled Crychic to prevent Shoko from falling into his clutches.

"Where's your gentle mother persona?"

Seeing that Su Shi was making no attempt to hide his desire to stab him to death, Kamiya Yu hesitated for a moment, then stepped aside to reveal the three girls behind him.

Except when she's with him, Su Shi is usually very nice.

But for some reason, perhaps out of hatred for the house, Su Shi didn't even give Chi Yin and the others a friendly look. She just snorted and said indifferently, "Come in. Li Xi-chan has been waiting for you for a long time. I really don't know why she still has her eye on a damned traitor like you."

"It's probably because she likes me at least ten times more than she likes you," Kamiya Yu smiled.

Then my foot got stepped on.

Kamiya Yu looked down at the stinky foot that was not only not smelly but also smelled of lavender, but his expression remained unchanged as he smiled at Suze: "Excuse me, what are you doing, elegant young lady Nagasaki Suze from Tsukimori Noble School?"

“I’m not angry,” Su Shi replied with a smile.

Is this an irrelevant answer?

If Xiangbao were here, he would make this evil brown-haired man understand what cruelty and heartbreak truly mean.

Yu Kamiya is furious!

"I will let Lixi uphold justice." It's a pity Xiangbao isn't here, so Lixi will have to fill in for now and take on the role of deterrent.

Upon hearing this, Su Shi withdrew her foot almost instantly, looking as if nothing had happened: "Are you referring to the time yesterday when you knocked me unconscious by hitting my bumper car?"

Kamiya Yu wasn't afraid. After all, this guy was the real gentle character in Crychic, and even she would find it hard to bear to symbolically hit him a couple of times.

But Lixi is different.

If this despicable fugitive were to report her, she would truly be smashed into a biscuit by Riki-chan.

Then she'll become Su Shi-chan.

"How rude." Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't help but frown her beautiful brows as she looked at Nagasaki Motoyo's behavior.

Since the sticker incident, her sense of belonging to her band has increased dramatically in an instant.

This may be what she has been searching for all along, the real thing she has been dreaming of.
