When I’m in a music show, I just want to make music seriously!

The road was icy and slippery, and she slid down the slope for a distance.

"what!"

Shoko Toyokawa subconsciously stretched out her hands to protect her head and body, but the pizza and bread in her hands were damaged.

After a few slips and tumbles, the bread and pizza were smashed to the ground and scattered all over the floor.

Shoko Toyokawa's hands were bleeding due to the friction from sliding down, and even her knees hit the stones on the side of the downhill road. Finally, she stopped because she hit a lamppost.

However, at this moment, Shoko Toyokawa's attention was no longer on the pain in her body.

Bread, pizza.

She quickly stood up in pain and wanted to check the condition of these two things.

However, when Shoko Toyokawa walked over, she found that when she fell, her hands subconsciously wanted to protect her body, causing these two things to be pressed under her and slide down for a distance. Now the entire road was littered with bread crumbs and pizza remnants, and even Shoko Toyokawa's clothes were stained with a lot of them.

When seeing this situation, tears welled up in Toyokawa Shoko's eyes.

The street at this moment was like the broken house, with debris thrown all over the floor by my father.

The pizza was leftover from a customer while she was working, and she had planned to save it for dinner.

And bread, bread...

Shoko Toyokawa bit her lip and said nothing. She squatted down silently and picked up the debris on the ground with her hands and cleaned it up. At this moment, she found that her hands were bleeding.

But she found that she no longer had the energy to care about these things. She just woodenly picked up the bread crumbs on the ground, as if she wanted to piece all the broken things back together.

This bread was originally intended to be given to Taku Sakagami. She even specially selected the style that he liked. Although it was not expensive, it was also the money she squeezed out from her hourly wage at her part-time job.

But now, all of these are broken and scattered all over the ground.

She could only clean up the mess by herself and swallow the bitterness.

However, at this moment, Shoko Toyokawa suddenly noticed some movement behind her. She turned around and found that for some reason, Taku Sakagami had also appeared here.

There was surprise and a hint of fear in Shoko Toyokawa's eyes. She quickened her movements, wanting to leave this place quickly.

At this moment, Sakagami Taku silently helped her clean up the leftovers.

Finally thrown into the trash can.

After all this was over, Toyokawa Shoko lowered her head, not knowing how to face Sakagami Taku. She opened her mouth, wanting to say thank you, but Sakagami Taku spoke first, with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "Your hand is still bleeding, how are you?"

"No, it's okay..." Toyokawa Shoko subconsciously put away her hands. She said intermittently: "I, I can handle it myself..."

She wanted to leave here and didn't want Sakagami Taku to see her current state, so she wiped her tears with her other hand.

But soon, she remembered that she owed Sakagami Taku's hourly wages. Although the bread was gone, as for the money:

"By the way, I owed you..."

She subconsciously reached into her pocket to take out the money she was going to return to Sakagami Taku, but the latter's voice came over: "Let me be clear in advance, if you plan to use your bloody hands to return my salary from a few days ago, I won't take it."

Hearing this, Toyokawa Shoko paused as she was reaching into her pocket. The money was in her right pocket, and her right hand was also injured. She could take it with her left hand, but it was too awkward. Besides, her left arm was a little painful, making it inconvenient for her to move.

She pursed her lips and froze, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Looking at Toyokawa Shoko's miserable state, Sakagami Taku sighed and said, "Come with me, treat the wound briefly, and then return the money to me."

"..."

41. I actually missed the beautiful girl’s legs!

The apartment that Taku Sakagami rented was not far from where he worked.

After all, attendance is a considerable expense, and he must reduce all his expenses.

Taking Toyokawa Shoko, who had been silent all the way, back to his residence, Sakagami Taku opened a very small room that looked like a grocery room in front of Toyokawa Shoko's somewhat disbelieving gaze.

After entering the house, I found it was even smaller than I had imagined. It would be more like a bedroom than a house. There was a bed, a barely separated toilet, and no other extra space beside the bed, just enough space for people to walk.

Clothes and two guitars with their backs wrapped around them were hung on the wall.

When she came here for the first time, Shoko Toyokawa couldn't help but take a few more glances.

She didn't understand why Sakagami Taku worked so hard and earned so much money, but he still lived in a place like this.

Taku Sakagami led her to sit on the bed, went to the top of the bathroom to take out a small medical kit, and then took out alcohol.

Taku Sakagami had no idea what was going on in Toyokawa Shoko's mind right now.

Just now, when this guy wanted to pay him back, Sakagami Taku was so scared that he stopped him quickly.

If there was blood on the Japanese yen, he would probably be mistaken for a robber when he paid the bill.

"Hold on, your hands are too dirty."

As Sakagami Taku spoke, he carefully wiped all the dirt off Toyokawa Shoko's wound with alcohol-soaked paper.

"hiss!"

Shoko Toyokawa wanted to pull her hand back in pain, but fortunately Taku Sakagami controlled herself.

Although I don't know how she got injured, looking at the mess on the ground and the scratches on her hands, it's not difficult to guess that she slipped and fell.

This is also why Sakagami Taku slowed down when walking down that slope. He had suffered a lot of losses there.

Moreover, because Shoko Toyokawa's hands were in contact with the ground, they were covered in dust. If they were not washed with alcohol, the wound would easily become infected.

Hearing the other person's cry of pain, Taku Sakagami finally finished cleaning. He had originally planned to use a Band-Aid, but found that the wound was a bit big and not enough, so Taku Sakagami simply bandaged it with some gauze.

Then he said directly to Toyokawa Shoko: "What about your knee? You were limping just now. Are your knees injured? Let me take a look."

"No, it's okay..."

Sakagami Taku's voice was a little impatient: "Is it okay that you just limped?"

Faced with Sakagami Taku's strong words, Toyokawa Shoko bit her lips lightly and timidly pulled open her pantyhose.

Soon, Taku Sakagami discovered that she also had a scratch on her knee, but fortunately the broken area was not large. He opened the box of Band-Aids, but soon the air froze for a moment.

The entire box is filled with pink Band-Aids of various colors, with cute little animals and girly patterns painted on them. It looks like they were bought by girls.

Only then did Sakagami Taku remember that Hongxia had accompanied him to buy these things.

Now that things have come to this, what else can we do?

He glanced at Toyokawa Shoko and found that her attention was not here, so he pretended nothing had happened and put a Band-Aid on her wound.

After finishing all this, Sakagami Taku helped her pull down her pantyhose and tidy them up.

Um?and many more.

Did I just do something extraordinary?

Taku Sakagami suddenly realized that he seemed to be facing the legs of a super beautiful girl.

And the other party doesn't even have any defense against me.

He didn't even take advantage of the chaos to do a few sneaky touches just now!

After finishing all this, Taku Sakagami got up, heated up some water in a kettle, took out a disposable paper cup, and poured a cup of hot water for Shoko Toyokawa.

Although this little house is not big, it has everything you need.

What's more, Hongxia would sometimes come here to play, and Sakagami Taku was quite experienced in entertaining guests.

Seeing that Toyokawa Shoko's emotions had stabilized and her tears had stopped flowing, Sakagami Taku asked, "How are you? Are you feeling a little better?"

Shoko Toyokawa held the paper cup in both hands and just nodded.

Sakagami Takumichi said, "That road is a slope. Be careful when walking on it in winter. It's very slippery with ice. I've fallen there several times before, and once I almost broke a bone."

Shoko Toyokawa didn't drink the water, but just held the cup on her knees and looked at her reflection in the water.

Emotional outbursts are often not caused by a single reason or a single event.

Rather, it was the countless pent-up emotions that finally burst out due to a breakthrough.

These were just things that she "didn't notice" when she was commenting on them, but at this moment, it seemed as if the whole world was against her.

Seeing her in a daze, Sakagami Taku stretched out his hand: "Give me back the money, these bandages are not counted as your money."

Mentioning this, Toyokawa Shoko finally came to her senses. She placed the water cup on the small stool at the end of the bed, then took out three thousand yen from her clothes: "This is the salary I owe you before. This is all I have on me for now. The remaining three thousand yen..."

Sakagami Taku took away two thousand yen: "Pay back this much for now, and return the rest to me when you have it."

This is what Hongxia likes to do whenever he is short of money. Sakagami Taku now leaves some money for Toyokawa Shoko for his own use.

He wasn't so blind as to not be able to see Toyokawa Shoko's current situation.

Something must have happened that made her need money so urgently.

Come to think of it, I haven't searched online for information about Toyokawa Group for a long time.

Toyokawa Shoko was obviously a little surprised by Sakagami Taku's actions. She was silent for a moment before she whispered, "Thank you."

"nothing."

Gu~~~

As she spoke, Shoko Toyokawa's stomach rumbled again.

She had worked all day and was planning to go home for pizza, but after all this trouble, she was obviously even hungrier.

She covered her stomach in panic and was about to say something when Sakagami Taku interrupted her:

"I have some noodles here, and I'm going to cook noodles later anyway. 50 yen, how about I make you dinner?"

Thinking of the bread bag he picked up on the slope just now, Sakagami Taku had never seen Toyokawa Shoko eat it. In the past, when he was eating and drinking for free at CRYCHIC, he often asked Toyokawa Shoko to give him one.

Although I don’t know if she bought it for herself, there were indeed some extra noodles at Sakagami Taku’s house, which was just enough for the two of them.

Of course, I still have to make some money from these fifty yen, just as the bandaging service fee I just provided.

"I..." Toyokawa Shoko instinctively wanted to refuse, but thinking of the other uses of the money she had, she finally said, "...Sorry to bother you."

"nothing."

At this moment, she looked like a girl who was bullied, sitting beside Sakagami Taku's bed, feeling dejected and powerless.

The only sound in the entire house was the sound of Taku Sakagami turning on the induction cooker and starting to cook noodles.

After a minute, Sakagami Taku finally remembered something: "Oh, if it's convenient for you, there is a dining table next to the bed. Take it out and help me put the things on it and put it at the end of the bed. Make room for me to eat noodles."

Before, Sakagami Taku lived alone and could just sit on the bed and eat at the table. But now there are two of them, so obviously they have to take out the food so that they can sit opposite each other and eat together.

Upon hearing this, Shoko Toyokawa also moved the movable table beside the bed to a position closer to the end of the bed so that the two of them could sit and eat.

But soon, she discovered that there were some papers on the table.

Toyokawa Shoko looked over subconsciously.

It would have been fine if she hadn't looked at it, but when she did, she realized there was a song written on it.

Watching this song, Shoko Toyokawa's eyes were full of disbelief.

The tears that had been suppressed with great difficulty seemed to be about to appear again in the next moment.

This piece of paper is full of scribbles and corrections, which shows how much effort the creator put into it.

However, this was not the reason why she could not take her eyes off it. What was more important was that the music scores of all the people in the band were marked on it, and those marked names were the members of CRYCHIC.

In other words, this is the song Sakagami Taku wrote again after his first live performance. Unfortunately, it was completely finished before he had time to perform it...

42. Toyokawa Shoko, please don’t spit on me.

Taku Sakagami had no idea that Shoko Toyokawa had seen the second song he had written earlier.

Originally, we did plan to have CRYCHIC give it a try during their second Live to see if they could successfully practice the coordination.

However, who would have thought that the band disbanded before the song was released.

But for Taku Sakagami, this is no big deal.

The quality of the song here is nothing more than being played in a different place, and it doesn’t matter to whom it means anything.
