"Your mother is on my side."

"Ugh?"

The elegant and calm Miss Tsukinomori, Nagasaki Suyo, lost her composure in front of Uehara Hibiki for the first time.

……

After briefly explaining the situation, Uehara Hibiki hung up the phone.

This street is located in a residential area, so aside from the locals, few people usually pass by. However, if you continue straight ahead in this direction, you'll reach Mejiro Station on the Yamanote Line. Ms. Nagasaki, perhaps trying to take a shortcut, ended up passing out drunk.

It just so happened that Su Shi said she was still in Tsukinomori participating in club activities, so it wouldn't be slow to take the tram, only about ten minutes.

But before that, we can't just leave Ms. Nagasaki lying on the ground. Although it is May, the temperature still drops significantly after dark. Ordinary people are at risk of catching a cold, let alone someone who is drunk and asleep.

After a quick check of his breathing and pulse rate, he confirmed that there was no danger and he was just drunk, and Uehara Hibiki couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The knowledge was originally prepared for Xiangzi's father, but I didn't expect it to be used here.

I carefully helped Ms. Nagasaki up. She didn't seem to be completely drunk. Although she couldn't stand completely on her own, at least someone could help her so that she wouldn't collapse.

He covered her with his coat again and waited for Nagasaki Suyo to arrive.

Soon, the familiar figure appeared.

However, she was no longer the elegant lady she usually was. Nagasaki Suyo looked around in panic like an ordinary high school girl.

"Shigasaki-san, this way."

Seeing Uehara Hibiki standing on the street and waving at her, and the woman he was supporting, Nagasaki Suyo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She completely abandoned her usual manners, slung her bag over her shoulder, and ran over quickly.

"Mother! Are you okay?"

"Su Shi? Is that Su Shi? Mom, I set off a big firework today! The boss said..."

As if awakened by her daughter's voice, Ms. Nagasaki wanted to say something, but under the influence of alcohol, her words eventually turned into vague mumbling again.

"Your mother has been like this for a while now, occasionally speaking a few words, but she can't be woken up. She's probably just drunk, and there's no health problem."

Uehara Hibiki supported Su Shi's mother and calmly explained the situation.

Finally, Nagasaki Suyo calmed down a little and bowed solemnly.

"Thank you, thank you so much, Uehara-kun."

"It's okay, let's take Auntie home first. It's going to get colder after dark."

Seeing Su Shi so serious, Uehara Hibiki didn't say much, but when he was about to let go and hand Ms. Nagasaki to her daughter.

The center of gravity has shifted significantly.

Different from the super strong lady Toyokawa Shoko.

Although Nagasaki Suyo is also a young lady, her strength is only that of an ordinary female high school student, or maybe even a little worse.

It seemed difficult for her to support a drunk adult.

Uehara Hibiki helped Ms. Nagasaki up again, and looking at the bewildered Nagasaki Suyo, he realized a key problem.

"Shigasaki-san, when will your driver arrive?"

That's right, although the Tsukinomori school rules prohibit students from taking private cars to and from school, Ms. Nagasaki is an adult, and Su Shi should at least notify the family driver when she comes to pick her up.

"There's no driver in my family. It's just me and my mother living together."

Wait a minute, a young lady without a private driver... Your family isn't really bankrupt, is it? Or are you also running away from home to be with your mother, Toyokawa Shoko 2.0?

However, there was no time to find out about these gossips. In the current situation, the weak girl Nagasaki Suyo could not be relied upon, and Uehara Hibiki had to bear it all on his own.

"Then I'll help you support your aunt. Nagasaki-san, where is your home?"

"Roppongi."

Wow, I almost crossed half of Tokyo.

Uehara Hibiki was really shocked this time. To go to and from school from Roppongi to Tsukino-no-Mori or RING, Nagasaki Suyo had to take detours and transfer on some of Tokyo's busiest lines every day. Her commuting route was hellish.

Besides, it was inconvenient for two people to transfer back and forth while supporting a drunk person.

"Then let's call a taxi."

Uehara Hibiki subconsciously began to calculate how many days of food expenses this train fare could cover. If Nagasaki Suyo really went bankrupt and had no money, he would have to bear the consequences himself.

The two men supported Ms. Nagasaki on both sides and slowly walked to the main road, where they quickly hailed a taxi.

Just looking at Nagasaki Motoyo sitting in the back seat and struggling to straighten her mother, Uehara Hibiki felt that he still couldn't leave.

"Shigasaki-san, I'll go back with you. It's really inconvenient for you to go alone."

In response to Uehara Hibiki's proposal, Nagasaki Suyo was silent for a while, then nodded.

"Please get in, Uehara-kun. Driver, please go to Roppongi Hills."

Sitting in the front row, Hibiki Uehara looked at the Nagasaki mother and daughter leaning against each other through the rearview mirror. What was a bit strange was that Hibiki Uehara always felt that Ms. Nagasaki had a stronger girlish look.

Although I always joke in my heart that Su Shi is the mother of the band, but when sitting with her biological mother, she can still smell like a mother.

Absolutely.

However, before today, Uehara Hibiki really didn't know much about Nagasaki Suyo.

Different from the rest of the band.

Deng and Lenai both have unique radio waves, and aligning their frequencies can bring them closer. Aine is an extrovert and actively moves closer to them, while Riki's weaknesses are too obvious.

Only the eldest lady of Tsukinomori has always maintained elegance and reserve, and always kept an appropriate social distance from Uehara Hibiki, which is impeccable.

Today is also the first time that Hara Hibiki has come into contact with information about Nagasaki Suyo outside of school and the band, which is a good opportunity.

If he didn't go to Su Shi's house, he would be late when he returned. It would be better to inform Xiangzi in advance and ask her not to wait for him in the supermarket.

……

The taxi arrived at the destination quickly and safely. Although it cost several thousand yen, it was worth it as I spent money to buy time.

But Su Shi’s home.

Uehara Hibiki looked up at the tower before him, dozens of stories high. The night lights seemed to reach into the depths of the universe. Speaking of this tower, he and Aine had specially looked down from the Sky Tree that afternoon. He had never expected Suze to live in such a famous place.

Helping Ms. Nagasaki into the lobby, Uehara Hibiki was stunned the moment he entered. He'd seen indoor bonsai before, but to have a tree nearly two stories tall planted in the middle of a lobby was truly new.

Next up is the exclusive VIP elevator. Accessed with a card, it ascends directly from the ground floor to the 45th floor, with no intermediate stops. Not only is it spiritually valuable, it's also incredibly practical, perfectly solving the elevator challenges of high-rise buildings. The only cost is money.

Speaking of this kind of high-rise residential building, the entire 45th floor should be owned by the Su family. It can only be said that it is worthy of being Miss Yuezhisen. Although it is not as good as the historical heritage building that Xiangzi used to live in, it is still very exaggerated.

However, after actually entering the house, Uehara Hibiki realized that he had underestimated the financial resources of the Nagasaki family.

It is not a one-story building, but a duplex.

But problems also followed. Looking at the spiral staircase at the end of the living room, Uehara Hibiki was also stunned. Although this design is beautiful and saves space, but...

Nagasaki Suyo was a high school student and was really unable to carry her mother on her back.

Although Uehara Hibiki is not lacking in strength, it is okay for him to walk a few steps with support, but it is a bit too much to carry him directly.

After looking at Su Shi, the other party didn't hesitate too much and just let go of his hand helplessly.

"Thank you for your hard work, Uehara-kun."

Yes, sir. But this is my future mother-in-law, so it's not hard.

Finally, under the escort of Uehara Hibiki, after overcoming one difficulty after another, Nagasaki Suyo successfully helped her mother to the bedroom on the second floor.

She had to walk the last part of the way by herself.

Uehara Hibiki returned to the living room and stretched his muscles a little. He felt a little uncomfortable because he didn't go to the supermarket to fight for lunch boxes today.

But it’s not a bad thing to relax for a day every now and then.

Uehara Hibiki looked at the furnishings around him. They were all very formal and extremely exquisite, but lacked a sense of life.

It's like a model home.

"Uehara-kun, thank you for your help. Thank you for helping me so much."

Not long after, Nagasaki Suyo came down from the second floor. The accident tonight caught her off guard, and there was a hint of worry in her perfect smile.

"Nothing, Shigaraki-san. I won't bother you anymore."

"Wait a moment, Uehara-kun, you should sit down and rest for a while. You've worked hard on the journey."

Nagasaki Suyo looked at the clock. It was almost nine o'clock.

"Why not stay for dinner?"

"No, it's really not necessary. You still have to take care of your mother. It would be too much trouble for you if I stayed."

To be honest, if Nagasaki Suyo was really surrounded by people at home, Uehara Hibiki would not be polite. But according to her description and the atmosphere of this family, apart from her mother who often worked overtime and went on business trips, Nagasaki Suyo was actually the only one living alone in this luxurious house.

Washing clothes, cooking, tidying and cleaning.

Although she is a young lady, she possesses the skill of Housework Lv.2.

She also had to take care of her mother tonight, and staying for dinner would only cause trouble.

It seemed that she could see that Uehara Hibiki was determined to leave, so Nagasaki Suyo had to make a final attempt to keep her.

"Please stay, at least for a cup of tea, while I clean your coat. I'll also pay for the taxi fare."

This reason was sufficient, so Uehara Hibiki smiled and agreed to her request.

I just watched Nagasaki Suyo brewing black tea with a smile.

Uehara Hibiki suddenly realized that perhaps in this respect, she was very similar to herself before she met Shoko.

If there is no one worth accompanying and no precious memories accumulated, the place you live in is just a house, not a home.

Even if it is a high-rise duplex, you can overlook the sea and the river.

But the more spacious the mansion is, the more memories it needs to fill it with in order to dispel the endless loneliness.

Uehara Hibiki thought of the wish that belonged to Nagasaki Suyo, [Home]

Now, after taking off the image of the perfect young lady, Nagasaki Suyo's weaknesses have been exposed in front of Uehara Hibiki, no longer concealed.

"Uehara-kun, please have some hot Earl Grey tea."

Nagasaki Suyo herself didn't realize that there was a hint of joy in her tone.

Home is everyone's most private home. In interpersonal communication, people often refuse others to enter their personal space.

But for a lonely person, she will unconsciously yearn for someone to enter her heart.

For Nagasaki Suyo, this person was the former Toyokawa Shoko.

But today, another person broke into her life in an unexpected way.

“Very delicious tea, better than RING.”

"Thank you, Uehara-kun. My skills are not as good as Rinrinko-senpai. Also, Earl Grey tea is more suitable for cakes. Please use it."

Nagasaki Suyo remembered that Aine once complained about Uehara Hibiki's huge appetite.

Very naturally, Nagasaki Suyo served tea and then handed over cake. Even if she couldn't stay for dinner, her idea of ​​taking care of people would not change.

"Shigasaki-san is really caring."

"No, I'm just repaying Uehara-kun's kindness."

"If there's anything I can offer in return, I'd rather we call each other by our first names."

"Ugh?"

Looking at Nagasaki Suyo's surprised expression, Uehara Hibiki took the cake.

"After all, we are the only two in the band who still call each other by our last names, which always feels a bit awkward. MyGo is a lifelong band and will become a home for all of us in the future. There's no need to be so polite among family members."

MyGo is home?

Nagasaki Suyo's breathing began to quicken. No, it shouldn't be like this. Her home should be Crychic.

During the days of Crychic, everyone was so happy, and resurrecting Crychic was everyone's common wish.

MyGo is just a show.

I have been working so hard to revive Crychic, and I believe everyone else must be thinking the same.

As long as I see Xiangzi, I will definitely be able to persuade her to come back. Li Xi and Deng... Although I can't tell them the truth now, they will definitely understand me and leave Uehara Hibiki's band in the end. As for Mu, she will definitely obey me.
