In music anime, band girls won't be alone.

"I think...it's okay."

Seeing that Takamatsu had spoken up, Nagasaki Motoyo was secretly pleased, then looked up at the girl behind the counter.

"What about Lixi? How does she feel?"

Shiina Tatsuki nodded in agreement.

Besides the fact that key figures have already given their approval, she herself also hopes that the band can be revived.

However, her purpose was not to return to the warm atmosphere of family, but for two other reasons.

The first point is that she wants to continue forming a band with Gao Songdeng and see him continue to stand on the stage so that more people can hear his songs.

The second point is that she wanted to prove herself through the band, to prove that she was able to stand on stage because of her own ability, not because of her sister's fame.

After seeing that both of them agreed, Nagasaki Motoyo glanced at Shirakawa Sawa without revealing her thoughts.

Seeing that the other person had already looked away and was feeding the cat with snacks, seemingly unconcerned, he turned his gaze back to the two girls in front of him.

"Dengjiang, Lixi, today was a little rushed."

"How about we schedule our meeting for next Tuesday, which is the day after tomorrow at 5 pm?"

"I can take advantage of these two days to go and find Xiao Xiang and Xiao Mu. It would be great if we could all get together."

Takamatsu Akari and Shiina Tatsuki exchanged a glance and nodded.

Volume 1: Chapter 64 Aren't you going to kiss?

After receiving affirmative answers from both of them, Nagasaki Motoyo was overjoyed and felt that the great cause of revival was within reach.

However, she has to keep a straight face and not show too much emotional fluctuation.

She maintained her smile, her gaze gently shifting between the two people in front of her, before continuing to speak.

"Since we're going to sit down and talk, we'd better find a quieter place, wouldn't you say?"

How is Yuzawa Coffee Shop?

The two of them didn't have many requirements in this regard, and naturally had no objections.

After confirming the time and place, Nagasaki Motoyo relaxed, her eyes filled with emotion as she looked at the two girls in front of her.

"It's great that everyone is willing to sit down and have a good talk."

"Then let's meet at Yuzawa Coffee Shop at 5 PM on Tuesday."

Gao Songdeng nodded as he looked at her, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Nagasaki Motoyo picked up her teacup, took a sip, paid the bill, said goodbye to everyone, and left.

She didn't want to start by discussing too many topics, since they had just ended their period of isolation and she didn't yet fully understand the other person's psychological state and thoughts.

So, just to be on the safe side, let's stop here.

If we continue to expand the topic, I'm not sure if we'll touch on the other person's sensitive points or sore spots.

Furthermore, time should be allowed for the other person to have a psychological buffer and to explore themselves.

Stepping out of RiNG, Nagasaki Motoyo felt she could barely contain her excitement.

She wanted to contact Toyokawa Shoko and Wakaba Mutsu as soon as possible so that the five of them could be reunited and they would be one step closer to rebuilding CRYCHIC.

At this moment, Shirakawa Ze was somewhat surprised, as he genuinely sensed the change in Takamatsu Akari's heart.

Unlike ordinary people, although the other person's personality is gentle and sensitive, their emotions are intense and turbulent.

It's actually quite difficult to persuade Nagasaki Motoyo, and it's easy to cause her to have significant emotional fluctuations.

However, she chose to accept it and opted to allow everyone to communicate face-to-face first.

Shirakawa didn't know how long the other person took to complete this psychological transition, but it must have been extremely difficult.

He understood that no matter how much warmth, kindness, and positive feedback the outside world gave to the other party, it was only a supporting and guiding role and could not replace the other party in making decisions.

Therefore, he understood that it was not an easy thing for the other party to make this decision, which was different from before.

Shirakawa looked at Takamatsu Akari, who was standing silently with her head down, and felt that she should give her plenty of encouragement at this moment.

Because the other person is likely trying to justify themselves at this point. After all, they have changed their usual behavior and logic, so even if they think they are right, they still need encouragement and affirmation.

Shirakawa Sawa reached out and gently grasped Takamatsu Akari's hand.

The girl's body trembled suddenly, snapping her out of her reverie. She looked up at the boy beside her and saw the certainty and determination in his eyes.

In that instant, the girl realized that the other person understood her and supported her.

“Ze-jun…”

Takamatsu murmured softly, looking into the other person's eyes.

At this point, no further words are needed; a simple exchange of glances is enough to convey their feelings.

She looked into the other person's eyes and felt she gained more strength.

"Aren't you going to kiss me?"

Suddenly, they heard Yoro Nai's voice in their ears.

Takamatsu blinked in confusion, then saw the cat approach, its curious eyes fixed on her and Shirakawa Sawa, and asked again.

"you."

"Aren't you going to kiss me?"

Shiina Ritsuki, who had been holding her breath behind the counter, immediately frowned and looked at Kaname Rakuna.

"Stray cat! Don't speak!"

Just like a single-threaded CPU needs time to process and switch to another task after finishing one, Takamatsu Akari realized that what Rakuna was saying was referring to her and Shirakawa Sawa. She was immediately overwhelmed by shyness and lowered her head, her face turning bright red.

In addition to feeling the temperature on her face rising, she also felt the temperature of her surroundings rising, which made her feel uncomfortable.

It was incredibly uncomfortable.

“Um… Ze-kun…”

Takamatsu spoke in an extremely low voice.

"I want to go back..."

Shirakawa Ze nodded.

"Then I'll take you back."

Takamatsu Akari nodded, greeted Shiina Tatsuki, and then the two of them got up and left together.

As she walked out of RiNG, listening to the sounds of cars passing by on the road and the chatter of pedestrians, the girl's emotions gradually calmed down.

Then she realized that Shirakawa Ze hadn't let go of her hand.

Not only did they not let go, but their fingers are now intertwined?

Gao Songdeng felt the temperature on his face rising again, and even his CPU was about to burn out.

“Ze-jun…”

She called out softly, her voice full of shyness.

Shirakawa Ze turned to look at her.

"What's wrong, Deng-chan?"

Takamatsu lowered his head, avoiding the other person's gaze, and opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

After a while, she shook her head, her voice soft.

"It's okay..."

The entire journey was speechless.

The two walked slowly to the middle of the overpass next to Takamatsu's house and then stopped.

The girl watched the cars passing by under the overpass, remained silent for a moment, then looked up at the boy beside her.

"Ze-kun... thank you."

"If it weren't for you... I probably wouldn't have had the courage to face it..."

Shirakawa Ze smiled and squeezed her hand.

"Actually, the most important thing is that Deng Jiang works hard enough."

"It's like the struggle that must be endured before a butterfly emerges from its chrysalis."

"Dengjiang persevered in the end."

Takamatsu Akari continued to look into the boy's eyes.

"But... if it weren't for Ze-kun, I wouldn't have had enough strength to keep going."

"I don't know if I can keep going..."

"Although I don't know what the future holds, nor what the decisions I make today will bring, and although my heart is still full of confusion..."

"However, I will continue to work hard and keep moving forward!"

Shirakawa Ze lifted their clasped hands.

"Then I'll walk with you."

Ripples appeared in Takamatsu's bright eyes, like the surface of water rippling under the bright moonlight. She gripped the boy's hand tightly and nodded solemnly.

Looking into the girl's sparkling eyes, Shirakawa Ze felt an overwhelming surge of emotion and knew he had to do something.

"Deng-chan..."

He called out softly.

Takamatsu blinked, looked at him, and waited for him to continue.
