Due to her family's financial difficulties, Shoko Toyokawa could no longer continue playing in the band and decided to leave. She had no intention of disbanding CRYCHIC and still hoped that the remaining four members could continue their activities after her departure.

But her words hurt the sensitive inner lamp, angered the irritable Li Xi, and... finally killed Ruo Ye Mu.

Invincible, Ms. Ruoye, I just thought about it before, and it turns out that you really don’t like the band.

Thinking about it, it would be strange if the band didn't disband because they said something like that at that special moment.

It is both fortunate and unfortunate that Shiina Ritsuki did not go directly to Hanaoka High School and entered Hanasakigawa. It can be seen that she cares about Takamatsu Deng Deng, but it can also be seen that she hates Toyokawa Shoko.

fate.

"Besides what he said during the disbanding, has Takamatsu-san displayed any similar behavior? From what I've heard, Takamatsu-san has always felt guilty, so there might be other triggers."

Originally, Uehara Hibiki just asked casually without any hope, but Shiina Riki gave a new answer.

"I want Deng to blame myself... Actually, after CRYCHIC's first live performance, Deng was reading the audience comments and there was a negative comment that made Deng feel bad."

"But we also explained to Deng at the time that there is no such thing as a perfect review. Deng should also understand this."

"Indeed, it's just a small matter after all, and the lamp will soon stop paying attention to it."

"You really don't care?" Uehara Hibiki interrupted their reminiscing. He knew there was some misunderstanding between Takamatsu and Toyokawa Shoko, so he was trying to deduce the cause from the effect. "In fact, after the first live performance, Toyokawa Shoko didn't go to rehearsal. I think Takamatsu-san will connect the two things."

"what?"

Shiina Riki typed a question mark. She couldn't understand how such a strong attitude could affect her. A bad review could have such an impact. The empathetic Nagasaki Soseki wanted to know the answer. "I see. Back then, what did Deng think?"

Nagasaki Soyo naturally wouldn't think that Xiangzi would hate Deng for such a thing, but Deng's personality could indeed lead to such a misunderstanding.

That’s great. The problem of Dengxin can be solved, CRYCHIC is resurrected, and great progress has been made.

As long as Deng is willing to come back, Lixi will also come back, and with Xiaomu's support, the four of them will surely succeed when they go to persuade Xiangzi.

Nagasaki Shoyo suppressed his inner joy and made a timely suggestion. "If that's the case, as long as we can have a good talk and help Deng clear up the misunderstanding, what do you think, Lixi?"

"Indeed, as long as it can help Deng..."

"No."

Uehara Hibiki interrupted their conversation. "I can't agree to your request without Takamatsu-san's consent."

"Huh? You think you're human?"

Shiina Riki slammed the table and stood up angrily.

Uehara Hibiki calmly finished his cup of tea. "My friend, Takamatsu Deng, you're the former teammate she cut ties with."

The truth was like a sharp knife. Shiina Tateki sat down dejectedly, and even Nagasaki Soyo looked embarrassed.

"I will try my best to persuade Takamatsu-san, but like I did before, she took the initiative to cut off contact with you. I am not clear about her attitude towards you, and I have to be responsible for my friend." Although the truth is a bit hurtful, a misunderstanding in Dengxiangjian is awkward enough, so it is better not to add a new front out of thin air.

Uehara Hibiki took the bill and stepped forward to pay, adding, "Don't even think about going to Yuqiu to find Deng. If I see you, I'll report you to the teacher."

With even her backup plan blocked, Nagasaki Souyo's smile grew increasingly forced, and she could only place her hopes on Li Xi beside her. Unexpectedly, the girl simply closed her purple eyes.

"Since Deng is unwilling to contact us... I respect Deng's idea."

Shiina Riki! You backed down at this time?

Nagasaki Shoyo felt a tightness in her chest, having worked so hard for CRYCHIC. But her personality kept her from saying anything harsh, so she just nodded in obedience.

…………

Same guitar case, same half-price lunch box, but tonight it’s original sound, don’t be weak.

In order to protect Takamatsu Deng, he has to break through Toyokawa Shoko's minefield in advance today.

He took the initiative to knock on Shoko Toyokawa's door, but was naturally rejected.

Yu Uehara Hibiki was forced to resort to underhanded tactics.

"Mr. Toyokawa Shoko, you don't want Takamatsu Touma, Shiina Tatsuki, Nagasaki Soyo, and Wakaba Mutsu to know that you live here, do you?"

Outstanding effect.

Shoko Toyokawa opened the door a little and quickly came out, fearing that Hibiki Uehara would see what was happening inside the room.

Girl, I don't mean to look down on adolescent boys. There are pornographic books all over the floor. Where are you going to hide them? You can't be a middle school student who is still doing cosplay.

Uehara Hibiki opened the door and extended his hand as a gesture to invite someone in. The coerced girl frowned and walked into the neighbor's room.

"Eat?"

Uehara Hibiki's way of opening the topic was still simple and unpretentious. Seeing that Toyokawa Shoko was unmoved, he poured her a cup of hot water.

"Eating more and drinking more hot water is good for your health."

"What do you want to do? Are you investigating me?"

Uehara Hibiki held out her phone, revealing the photo from the CRYCHIC account. "I did investigate, and it's not just because of you, Takamatsu-san. She'll be blocking the door to Class B tomorrow looking for you."

Shoko Toyokawa's body stiffened for a moment, but she immediately resumed her indifferent disguise.

"It doesn't matter. I won't talk to her."

"If you ignore the light, I will grab your arm and force you to listen to it, even if it means choking you."

Having never imagined a way to negotiate, Toyokawa Shoko looked at Uehara Hibiki with grievance as he rolled up his sleeves and flexed his muscles. Everyone was verbally abusing each other in social situations, so could you just take action directly?

"Just kidding. After all, I don't want to be expelled." Uehara Hibiki looked at the angry girl and laughed out loud.

"I'll stand at the door of your class. If Takamatsu-san whispers something quietly, I'll shout it out loud, making sure you can hear me. I'll check the school rules. Loud noises in the hallway will only result in a reprimand. As for how intimate and affectionate Takamatsu-san writes in his notes, even if it's poetry recitation, I'll still shout it out. Anyway, I'm thick-skinned. I wonder what about you, Toyokawa-san?"

When a scholar encounters a soldier, he is confused.

Toyokawa Shoko is a former eldest daughter. Although her pride has been smoothed by life and she has to work part-time every day, she is still a face-saving person. She is repeatedly poked in the soft spot and her defense is directly broken.

"What are you going to do? Are you going to persuade me to go back to CRYCHIC? Don't be ridiculous, I'm just..."

"I'm not trying to persuade you to change your mind." Uehara Hibiki knocked on the table, signaling for silence. "You're free to quit CRYCHIC, and I certainly can't interfere. But there are good and bad ways to quit. You hoped CRYCHIC would function normally after you quit, right? But in the end, it died tragically, and everyone was hurt."

Toyokawa Shoko was silent. She knew her responsibility and that her words would hurt Deng if she wasn't calm enough.

She did not regret leaving CRYCHIC, but her sadness on that rainy day was genuine.

Seeing the girl wilting, Uehara Hibiki slowly came up with all the inferences.

"The lead singer works too hard. It's such an understatement, a normal person might just laugh it off. But Toyokawa Shoko, you know Takamatsu-san's character, right? She only knows how to blame." Uehara Hibiki tasted the sadness overflowing from the girl's heart and began to eat voraciously.

, the beautiful girl is in pain, so delicious.

"You want me to do it?"

Cheer up, Shoko Toyokawa! She seems to never be defeated. No matter what happens, she can always face it with strength.

"Don't do it. It's better not to express your true feelings. After all, you want Deng to be happy, don't you?" Uehara Hibiki delivered the final blow. "I can carry Deng into the future, but if she goes, the scars you left behind will never disappear."

"I hate men."

Shoko Toyokawa took a sip of hot water and then turned and left.

But before she walked out of the room, Uehara Hibiki's words caught up with her again.

"Actually, I was also lying when I recited the poem loudly just now. After all, not only Takamatsu Deng, but Toyokawa Shoko is also my friend Uehara Hibiki. I also hope that you can be happy."

Tears blurred her vision and Toyokawa Shoko did not answer, for she was worried that her voice would be heard as unusual.

The door was closed again, but her mood turned into a +10 progress in the game, which was fed back to Uehara Hibiki.

"Poor girl."

Without opening the system panel, Uehara Hibiki finally remembered, having been alerted by a silent system notification in the afternoon. As expected, Nagasaki Soyo and Shiina Tatsuki had joined the Shining Package. At this rate, Wakaba Mutsu was likely to be in trouble.

In this case, is the system hiding the main plot and asking me to reorganize CRYCHIC?

Chapter 12 I wish you happiness

While this idea might seem a bit shockingly clever, the system currently recognized four Shining Girls, all of whom were members of CRYCHIC. Furthermore, the two popular bands Poppin'Party and Afterglow were already registered in the system.

It is reasonable to infer that the system's hidden task is for Uehara Hibiki to help the five members of CRYCHIC reconcile and release the brilliance...

Well, Uehara Hibiki threw the idea out of his mind. As the saying goes, a broken mirror cannot be mended. It is extremely difficult to force several people to stick together. He would not do it unless the system gave him more money.

Let's draw cards now. Maybe we'll draw some clues related to Crychik. I hope you two don't make any troublesome wishes. So first, beautiful Lixi.

It’s amazing that he can actually draw basic skills. Uehara was shocked, but then he was deeply scared.

Also, in the afternoon, if Shiina Riki really got impulsive, even though she had thin arms and legs and didn't look like she had much muscle, with her physical fitness she could beat him up.

Is the second dimension powerful? Where is biology going?

But thankfully, I'm happy to accept your skills. As for the newly acquired personality series items, they seem to be used to craft basic materials, just like the emotion series. I'll check out the crafting module later.

Then, Kasuga Kage was chasing me, and Uehara Hibiki was almost speechless.

Is this a Kasuga Kage causality item? Does every C-group member get one? Just take a look. After CRYCHIC disbanded, Tatsuki Shiina rearranged Kasuga Kage's music, removing the keyboard part. His dedication speaks volumes.

Uehara Hibiki couldn't help but click his tongue and continued to hit Nagasaki Suyo ten times in a row.

Although there are three blue and three green characters, and although there are two skills, the skill levels are too low, and their functions are unclear. ...

Kasuga Shadow is actually pursuing me?

Uehara Hibiki entered his memory with grief and anger, and relived the CRYCHIC LIVE in the first person.

In conclusion, Kasuga Shadow has a good song, Deng is indeed an excellent lead singer, and Nagasaki Suyo really can't see the toes.

The more I think about it, the more I get off track. Let me do some housework first.

…………

Time flies, and it's lunchtime again. Takamatsu Deng walks out of the classroom, holding her notebooks, with a determined look on her face. Uehara Hibiki follows closely behind, as if to see her off.

"The wind whistles and the Yi River is cold, brave man..." Uehara Hibiki quickly corrected himself. "Once the beautiful girl leaves, she must return."

Coming to Class B next door, Takamatsu Deng, completely devoid of her usual shyness, rushed in headfirst. Luckily, Uehara Hibiki rushed over and grabbed her shoulder. Having learned from her previous experience, Deng's energy should be channeled where it's needed, leaving Uehara Hibiki to handle smaller matters.

Standing at the back door of the classroom, I happened to see Toyokawa Shoko sitting by the window. Upon seeing the two of them, she gave me a very complicated look. Okay, I didn't just pretend I didn't see it. After all, I had prepared myself for the night yesterday, and I should be able to have a calm conversation now.

"Toyokawa-san, please come out." Uehara Hibiki didn't give her much time to hesitate and waved with a smile.

Taking a deep breath and making thorough mental preparations, Toyokawa Shoko also stepped onto the battlefield.

"Deng, there are other students here, let's go to the Astronomy Department."

Oh, Toyokawa Shoko actually took the initiative to go to the base camp and fall into the trap. It seems there is a way.

The three of them left the classroom in silence. It was only because of the estrangement that the two of them walked on either side of Uehara Hibiki, and at first glance, it looked like the scumbag was hugging them left and right... but it was only a matter of time. Uehara Hibiki was not afraid of gossip, and despite the curious gazes of the classmates, the three of them walked to the Astronomy Department.

First, the pros and cons take their seats.

Then, Uehara Hibiki locked the door, took out the key, and completely cut off Toyokawa Shoko's escape route unless she dared to jump out the window.

Facing Uehara Hibiki's small gesture, Toyokawa Shoko just turned her head away deliberately, tacitly approving his action. Uehara Hibiki leaned against the door, gave Takamatsu Deng a thumbs-up, and her lips trembled, giving silent encouragement.

Come on, lights!

Then, Gao Songdeng launched an attack.

"Xiangzi, I want to apologize to you. I'm sorry!"

It was the first time Hibiki Uehara had heard Takamatsu Touma speak so loudly. Her face flushed, and she handed over the notebook she had treasured. Toyokawa Shoko simply took the notebook coldly, opened it, and pretended to examine it. Hibiki Uehara swore, using her newly acquired observation skills, that Toyokawa Shoko hadn't read a single word of the notebook.

What are you doing?

You accepted it to express your forgiveness, why don’t you read it?

Uehara Hibiki was a little confused, but it was better not to ruin the atmosphere.

"Xiangzi...are you willing to...forgive..."
