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

It was like she hated her former self.

Toyokawa Shoko's voice was low, but full of sincerity: "I know that my sudden departure has caused a lot of trouble to everyone..."

Shiina Riki followed up, "It's not enough that someone just ran away for no apparent reason, but you didn't even bother to give an explanation? And why did it take Taku to call us over? Couldn't you have contacted them yourself?"

Hearing these words, Toyokawa Shoko took the initiative to explain: "I, I'm afraid that if I invite you, you will choose to ignore me because you hate me..."

Shoko Toyokawa was also in great pain during this period.

Thinking about the small house she saw when she went to Taku Sakagami's house that day, and looking at everyone's worried eyes now, she realized that she was the most selfish in hiding all this, and leaving without permission made those who really cared about her worry.

But now, she knew she had to face the matter head-on instead of continuing to cause trouble for others because of her weakness.

Nagasaki Suyo quickly said, "How could that be? No one knows what happened to Xiaoxiang."

She was also very worried about Shoko Toyokawa's situation during this period, so she kept asking Sakagami Taku and Wakaba Mutsu if they had any news about Shoko Toyokawa.

At this moment, Gao Songdeng, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke: "What do you want to say..."

Her voice wasn't loud, but as she spoke, the surroundings gradually fell silent, which made everyone curious.

When Shiina Riki saw Takamatsu Deng's expression and reaction, he stopped saying those harsh words.

Compared to Takamatsu Tomo and the others, she actually doesn't care about what happens to Toyokawa Shoko. She only cares about whether Sakagami Taku and Takamatsu Tomo have been affected by this incident and their lives have changed.

And Nagasaki Suyo was waiting for Toyokawa Shoko's explanation.

Shoko Toyokawa raised her eyes and looked at everyone present.

Before coming in, she was still worried about many things. However, it was not until this moment, when she heard Shiina Riki's angry words, that Toyokawa Shoko realized how much harm she had caused to others.

Thinking of this, Toyokawa Shoko's face was full of guilt, and she even shed tears of self-blame. She lowered her head and then bowed deeply: "I'm really sorry for leaving the team suddenly before. No matter how you scold me or say anything about me today, I am willing to accept it. I'm really sorry for making you worry, really..."

Her voice gradually choked: "I'm really sorry."

After she finished speaking, Gao Songdeng looked at Toyokawa Shoko who lowered her head. She was a little confused.

I don't understand why Toyokawa Shoko left, why she suddenly came back now, and why she is crying.

"But what Xiaoxiang said before..."

"I said all that out of selfishness. It has nothing to do with anyone else. It's because I've been afraid and avoiding problems that this happened. All the problems are my fault."

Toyokawa Shoko held the hem of her skirt tightly and continued, "I don't ask for your forgiveness, but I hope you will give me a chance to explain."

Having said that, the girls were not so heartless because of these things. They all asked curiously: "What happened?"

Taku Sakagami took out Shoko Toyokawa's cell phone at the right time.

Don’t ask why it was Shoko Toyokawa’s, because his phone was too slow. If it took the PPT a long time to load at the critical moment, the atmosphere that was hard to create would be ruined by his phone.

Nowadays, anything about Toyokawa Group can be found almost instantly with a simple search on the Internet.

Taku Sakagami randomly clicked on a news interface and showed it to everyone.

The others didn't pay much attention to the affairs of this group at the time, but when they saw this information, their expressions changed slightly.

They all showed disbelief in their eyes.

Toyokawa Group suffered a loss of 168 billion?

For these girls who had just entered high school, 168 billion was an astronomical figure.

Although Nagasaki Suyo is also a young lady, her family's house is only worth a few billion. This loss figure is enough to buy more than a dozen houses in her family.

"this is......"

Nagasaki Suyo covered her mouth in surprise. Looking at the number and the date above, she suddenly understood why Toyokawa Shoko rarely came to training during that period.

After seeing this news, Shiina Riki's originally somewhat hostile look faded a little.

Gao Songdeng looked at the news and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

A gloomy look fell on Toyokawa Shoko's face. She whispered, "My father lost a lot of money in business and was kicked out of the group. I wanted to take care of him, so I missed some of the band training during that time. Plus, a lot of things got mixed up at once, and I didn't know what to do..."

Having said this, she stopped hiding and evading like before, and instead gritted her teeth and said, "But! Even so, I know that it was my cowardice that caused these things and made everyone worry for such a long time. I will not avoid this fact."

As she spoke, she bowed again and apologized:

"I'm really, really sorry. I really wanted the band to continue. I had so much fun spending time with everyone. I also wanted to realize the dreams that Taku talked about..."

Her voice was filled with pain, regretting her previous misdeeds. "But, what's happening now won't allow me to continue being so willful... We clearly agreed to step onto the world stage together, and we clearly all put in so much effort... But in the end, because of me..."

When the truth of all this was revealed, Shoko Toyokawa thought she would be scared, uneasy and worried.

However, at this moment, there was no such emotion swirling in her heart.

Instead, there is pain and discomfort.

CRYCHIC is over and in the past. What is lost cannot be returned.

Even if everyone explained everything, she wouldn't have the energy or financial resources to start a band again.

After hearing this, everyone fell silent.

There was a hint of loss on everyone's face.

When the truth came out, they actually knew that CRYCHIC had become a thing of the past.

Shoko Toyokawa's family has lost so much money that it is impossible for them to continue forming a band.

They couldn't possibly say something like, "It's just a huge loss, what does it have to do with whether you join the band or not?"

The changes in the family were something no one could have predicted.

"So that's why..." Nagasaki Suyo's voice broke the silence, her voice a little dejected: "You didn't reply to my text messages before, I thought..."

She looked at Toyokawa Shoko crying with mixed feelings. She didn't know why, but it was as if her happiness could have continued, but because of certain things, she had to face reality.

Sakagami Takuya said at the right time: "With so much loss, the Toyokawa Group is in urgent need of adjustment. Xiangzi's living expenses are also in trouble. Not only does he need to work part-time to make money, but there are also many other things that need to be repaired. So, it is impossible to continue playing in the band."

Shiina Riki didn't say anything harsh again. Even if it was her, facing someone else's family changes, she would never say something like "What does it have to do with me?"

Even so, she still had some dissatisfaction, but her voice was much softer than before: "Why didn't you say this earlier? When Tuo followed you to quit the band, he also said something similar. We are not fools. No one will force you to form a band just because you have no money and no time."

In her opinion, if this matter is explained clearly, everyone will be able to accept it, just like when Taku Sakagami quit the band, he also clearly explained the reason in the group.

Hearing this, Toyokawa Shoko choked up and said, "I, I'm a little scared... I'm afraid that if I tell you, I'll lose everything. I'm afraid to face your worried eyes, afraid that you'll care about me..."

"Huh?" There was a look of confusion on Shiina Riki's face.

What's there to be afraid of?

And didn’t Tuo quit because he had no money?

Is this guy an idiot!?

When something like this happens, isn't there anything we can do?!

It’s like Taku has no money.

The most regrettable thing for Shiina Riki is that she is not a rich woman, otherwise she would definitely keep him as her mistress - that's not right!

This matter is different from supporting Taku Sakagami.

Thinking of this, Shiina Riki crossed his arms over his chest and turned his head away: "Really, why don't you just say it nicely."

At this moment, Gao Songdeng also asked: "Isn't it because of my singing problem..."

"How, how is that possible!" This time, when this question was raised, Toyokawa Shoko was obviously a little emotional. She raised her eyes, tears in the corners of her eyes: "Deng has always worked very hard. Everyone knows this. I was just overwhelmed by the pressure at that time, so I said those words. If it weren't for Deng's lyrics encouraging us, we wouldn't have gathered together."

The only thing she didn't want to be misunderstood was this. Those were just her angry words, and she was overwhelmed by the pressure.

"But..." Takamatsu Deng was still a little hesitant.

"Can't I sing even if you don't sing?" Sakagami Taku was speechless. Why did this guy still think it was his problem?

Even Sakagami Taku couldn't stand it anymore: "The lead singer doesn't have to be fixed. If he's not good enough, we can switch. How could someone quit the band just because the lead singer is not good enough?"

How could this possibly make sense? If Gao Songdeng can't sing, then he should quit and become the lyricist.

After hearing what Sakagami Taku said, the last trace of resentment in Takamatsu Deng's heart finally disappeared.

In the past few months, she always thought that it was because of her that Toyokawa Shoko left the band.

Nagasaki Suyo also said in a complicated tone: "If that's the case, if you want to form a band again..."

"If you want to continue, that's fine, but I'm afraid it's unlikely for Xiangzi and I." Sakagami Takuai answered this question:

"Xiangzi and I are both very short of money right now, and we both have our own plans. She lost 168 billion, which is not a small amount. We're not rich, and even if we were, no one would solve such a big problem for a friend. As for me, I need a stable job to pay for rent and daily expenses, and I don't have much time for band practice, so I apologize."

After hearing this, the girls knew the result.

It is understandable that if something like this happened in anyone's family, they would suddenly feel stressed, quit the band, and want to be alone.

Shiina Riki finally sighed: "Oh, I get it. If Deng can accept it, I have no objection. There is nothing we can do about this kind of thing. No one can predict it. But if there is a next time, I hope I can say it directly instead of disappearing inexplicably."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Then his eyes fell on Gao Songdeng.

As someone who was explicitly mentioned by Toyokawa Shoko as someone who still needed to practice her singing skills, and as the team's lyricist and lead singer, everyone would of course be the first to listen to her ideas.

Facing everyone's gaze, Gao Songdeng spoke in a halting tone: "I, I don't know... But, but if Xiaoxiang really left because of difficulties, just like Li Xi said, there is nothing we can do."

Investigate?

Gao Songdeng didn't know what to pursue.

Are you reminiscing about the happy times you had together in the past?

Or should we investigate why Shoko Toyokawa left on her own after what happened?

For Gao Songdeng, none of this matters anymore.

An important person left the band and couldn't come back due to family reasons. As a teammate, she couldn't say anything to blame them.

Moreover, even though the person was right in front of her, there always seemed to be a distance between them that could not be reached. She didn't like this feeling, as if something was blocking her chest.

But she still tried hard: "Xiaoxiang, you have always been my friend, and this will not change. I, I have never been angry with Xiaoxiang."

"Light..." Tears of emotion appeared on Toyokawa Shoko's face.

Gao Songdeng was at a loss when facing the crying Toyokawa Xiangzi, and then he comforted her awkwardly: "This, this is not Xiaoxiang's fault. Just tell me, I, I can understand."

"Thank you, Deng." Toyokawa Shoko wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then looked at Nagasaki Suyo: "Where's Suyo?"

Upon hearing this, a look of obvious disappointment appeared on Nagasaki Suyo's face.

In the past few months, she has been waiting for news from Toyokawa Shoko almost every night, and even kept asking what happened to Sakagami Taku and Wakaba Mutsu.

It's impossible to say that I don't care.

She once thought that if they encountered any difficulties, they could solve them together, and then team up again and happily participate in the Live.

But now that she really knew the truth, Nagasaki Suyo found that she could no longer do it.

"I..." Nagasaki Suye put her hand on her chest and said softly, "As long as Xiaoxiang is fine, it's fine. As for the band, even if there is no chance in the future, just like Taku said, we are still friends. And Xiaoxiang's case is indeed very special. Next time if there is anything, just tell everyone clearly."

"Yes! There will definitely not be a next time." Shoko Toyokawa nodded.

Nagasaki Suyo is not someone who likes to blame others. As long as nothing happens and there are no misunderstandings, parting ways amicably may be the best choice.

But she cared more about one important thing.

She looked at Ruoye Mu: "Xiao Mu said at that time that he had never been happy..."

If the happiness during that period was also false, that would be what would really make them sad.

"Let me explain this." When it came to this, Sakagami Taku was almost fainted with anger.

Wakaba Mu, this idiot, can't even express the main point clearly. If he hadn't asked her out if she knew everything about Toyokawa Shoko, Sakagami Taku really wouldn't have understood what she meant by that sentence.

Sakagami Taku: "To put it simply, my sheet music is customized according to each of your abilities, and Mu's sheet music is actually a bit more difficult than all of you. She's the lead guitarist, so she needs to put in more effort. When she said she was never happy, she meant that she couldn't play her best guitar, which made her very dissatisfied. That's why she didn't enjoy playing in a band. Don't worry, next time I have a good sheet music, I'll let her know how much fun it is to play guitar."

Sakagami Taku: I've never met anyone who's so good at talking in my life.
