I push the kid!

"For a long time, your only pleasure was to watch the gentle sunset.

"I learned this new detail on the morning of the fourth day, when you said to me..."

The narration ended here, and Hoshino Ai, who played the little prince, continued, saying, "Let's go watch the sunset!"

"Watch the sunset?" A dialogue that deviates from the original plot.

Hoshino Ai was stunned, but she quickly reacted: "Yes! Let's go watch the sunset!"

"But we have to wait..."

"What are you waiting for?"

"Wait until the sun goes down."

"I thought I was back home..." She expressed her disappointment.

The judges stared at her, seemingly unhappy with the remark, but the show went on.

The narrator reads: "Everyone knows that noon in the United States is dusk in France. If you can reach France within one minute, you can see the sunset. Unfortunately, France is too far away. On your little planet, you only need to move your chair a few steps. In this way, you can see the sunset whenever you want."

"One day, I watched the sunset thirty-three times..." At this point, Hoshino Ai realized that she had said the line wrong, it should be forty-three times.

But the change of tone feels much more abrupt than just reading along with the wrong lines.

She went on, "You know, when a person is feeling really sad, she likes to watch the sunset."

The judge noticed her mistake, closed the script in his hand, and walked a little closer:

"But, wouldn't it be better to appreciate the beauty of the sunset in the sky if we admire it with a happy mood?"

This sentence was not in the script, and Hoshino Ai couldn't think of what to say for a moment.

The judge's expression did not change at all. "So, you felt very sad when you watched the thirty-third sunset?"

"Yes..." Hoshino Ai said blankly. But there should be no lines at this time.

Thank you all for your rewards, monthly tickets, and recommendation tickets.

Chapter 57

57.

Halfway through the time, the second act begins.

Sheep, bushes, roses, nails, Hoshino Ai just recited the lines.

When she should have turned pale, she just glanced at the ground calmly.

When she should blush and her heart beat fast, she simply covered the side of her face with an unnatural expression.

Later, the lights went out and Hoshino Ai should have sobbed on the night-like stage, but she failed to do so.

After the script was over, the judges shook their heads and looked at her meaningfully.

Hoshino Ai's eyes wavered, she slowly lowered her head, knelt on the floor, and whispered "I'm sorry."

There was a slight sound coming from the audience, I couldn't tell whether it was a sigh or encouragement.

But at this time, no matter which one it was, Hoshino Ai couldn't hear it at all.

She walked down the other side of the stage, where only Sanae Takamine was waiting.

The narration voice sounded again, probably because Mai Watanabe started performing after her.

But Hoshino Ai lost the strength to look back.

Like some kind of announcement to remind her that you acted terribly, the voice next to her exploded in Hoshino Ai's ears like continuous thunder.

But she seemed not to feel it, and looked as if she had not yet come to her senses. She just walked forward a little bit, and even her steps were smaller than usual.

The lights from the stage shone from behind her, casting her blurry shadow on the wooden floor.

The phantom was cut into pieces by the gaps between them.

After leaving the stage, Hoshino Ai looked exactly like a stray cat that was soaked by the rain.

"Xiao Ai." Sanae Gaofeng called her.

Hoshino Ai didn't hear it.

"Little Love?"

"Hmm, eh?" Hoshino Ai stopped and stopped right in front of Takamine Sanae.

She turned her body around, clasped her hands together, and put on a very forced smile: "Sorry, sorry, I was a little distracted just now! What's wrong?"

Sanae Takamine stared at her with an indescribable expression of surprise, her lips slightly parted as if she wanted to say something.

In the end, he didn't utter a single word.

The smile on Hoshino Ai's face froze visibly.

At first she could still force herself to laugh out loud, but afterwards even the slight smile on her lips completely disappeared.

She looked at Sanae Takamine, and her eyes were as if she was witnessing a wave strong enough to drown her rushing towards her.

"I'm sorry..." Hoshino Ai didn't know what to say.

"Xiao Ai..." Gao Feng Sanae called her name again.

"I seem..." Hoshino Ai turned her head, lowered her eyes, and her gaze stopped on the gap in the floor more than half a meter away.

Her voice was somewhat sad, yet also sounded as if she was laughing.

Only this kind of sound can make people most sad.

She said self-deprecatingly: "What? I'm totally incompetent. I'm totally holding B Komachi back."

"..." Sanae Gaofeng blinked silently.

She didn't know what happened to her just now. But at this moment, her eyes softened unconsciously.

She stretched out her hand, wanting to hold Hoshino Ai, but suddenly she heard a thumping sound in her ears. She turned her head and saw Watanabe Mai walking down from the stage.

The stairs made a lot of noise when the girl's low heels stepped on them.

"Xiao Ai!" Mai Watanabe jumped down from the second to last step.

Hoshino Ai looked up at her: "Watanabe..."

Before she could finish her words, Watanabe Mai ran over and hugged her, burying her head in her right shoulder.

Before Hoshino Ai could react, in less than half a second, Watanabe Mai started crying.

"Finally! It's finally over!"

"Idiot, there's also Ninomiya." Sanae Takamine came over and rubbed her head and said.

Chapter 58

58.

"I know, I know." Mai Watanabe said in a choked voice.

She hugged Hoshino Ai into her arms. Hoshino Ai stood there at first, then suddenly came to her senses and slowly put her fingers on her shoulders.

The two could feel each other's heartbeat through their clothes.

Hoshino Ai remained in that position, while Watanabe Mai wiped her eyes with her hands, then released her hands around Hoshino Ai's neck, and the two of them kept a distance of several dozen centimeters between them.

"Xiao Ai, how are you?" Mai Watanabe asked. They looked at each other.

White light shone in from the edge of the drawn curtain, dividing Hoshino Ai's face into two parts, black and white, with a clear boundary.

She avoided his gaze and raised her slightly curled hands to the height of her chest. She lowered her eyebrows and said thoughtfully, "I..."

"You're wrong, that's not what I'm asking." said Mai Watanabe.

"Ah?" Hoshino Ai looked up at her.

"Compared to other things." Mai Watanabe raised her voice unconsciously, "I'm worried about you!"

Hoshino Ai was stunned, then smiled skillfully and waved her hand: "No, I have nothing to worry about..."

"You're lying!" Mai Watanabe interrupted her, "You're lying. You looked like that just now on the stage."

That look? Like a dusty stray cat abandoned in the rain...

Standing on the long-awaited stage, performing "The Little Prince", which he had always said he loved best, he suffered a miserable defeat.

Hoshino Ai breathed heavily: "That's because..."

"Everything is fine!"

"Ok?"

Mai Watanabe hugged her again: "No matter what," her voice seemed to come through the eardrum, "please don't blame yourself, okay? We B Komachi, we are a complete B Komachi, we should advance and retreat together!"

Hoshino Ai felt that she was being hugged too tightly, but she didn't want to break free.

"...Watanabe." Takamine Sanae murmured beside her.

There was a flash of light in the field of vision, and Ritsuko Ninomiya lifted the half-open red curtain and came down the stairs.

Mai Watanabe turned her head, Sanae Takamine also looked over, and Hoshino Ai faced that side and was the first to say Ritsuko Ninomiya's name.

When Ninomiya Ritsuko was called, she just kept her hands on her heart, as if she had just escaped from a desperate situation.

She looked around at this moment, as if to confirm her current location.

Then he scanned the faces of the three people in front of him in turn, scanning back and forth twice, but said nothing.

Mai Watanabe looked at her suspiciously: "Ritsuko?"

“……” Ninomiya Ritsuko looked over in silence.

Takamine Sanae sighed and reminded, "Ninomiya, it's over."

"Ritsuko, it's over!"

"It's over..." she repeated.
