The guests teased little Ruoye Mutsu with every word they said, like they were teasing a child.

“But it’s so cute.”

"That's right. But Mutsu-chan is really cute."

"..."

Katsuto has known Wakaba Mutsu for some time.

Although I don't understand what kind of person Wakaba Mutsu is, I have learned to read Wakaba Mutsu's mood.

She is not happy.

She didn't feel even a little happy about everyone's praise.

Then, there was the expression of Wakaba Mutsu while holding the guitar.

Although there was still no obvious change on his face, he could read it.

Wakaba Mutsu likes guitar.

Again.

Why guitar?

...No, maybe not the guitar.

If you speculate here.

Is it because Mu feels that her appearance was given by her parents and does not belong to her; and the guitar is the only thing that belongs to her?

Ahhh.

Got it. Got it.

When he came to this conclusion, Shengren almost had an epiphany.

My understanding of Ruoye Mu finally reached a new level.

So, there is a new interpretation of the sentence "I have never felt happy playing in a band"...

"I'm sorry, Aunt Minami, I want to go and have a word with you."

"Oh, go ahead."

There was still a smile on Mori Minami's face.

But this smile was too obvious.

Shengren ignored her and walked straight to the door.

Knocked on the door.

"Mu, can I come in?"

"..."

Katsuto waited for a while.

With a slight sound, Ruoye Mu, who was dressed in casual clothes, came and opened the door for him.

He followed Ruoye Mu silently into the basement.

Then, Ruo Yemu sat back on the chair beside the stairs, holding the guitar and playing quickly.

Shengren sat on the side and listened quietly.

Made an evaluation.

"...No, where's my heart?"

"!"

Ruoye Mu paused and the pick in his hand fell directly to the ground.

“I still like Mu’s performances at that time.”

I was talking about, of course, the playing of Kasuga Shadow.

"...Is there any difference?"

Wakaba Mu asked.

"Yes... Can't you feel it? In fact, you were also enjoying the performance at that time, and your guitar was also happy at that time—"

"..."

Wakaba Mu fell into silence.

But Shengren did not stop talking.

"The joy that belongs only to Wakaba Mu."

Not as the daughter of Mr. Wakaba and Minami Mori.

Not as Toyokawa Shoko's childhood sweetheart.

"I can tell - music is the best reflection of a person's inner world."

"why?"

Maybe Wakaba Mu himself didn't realize why he was questioning Shengren.

"Because I used to be like that."

Shengren answered decisively.

"I can't feel the meaning, and my heart is empty... Although I can use something to numb myself temporarily, the doubts and emptiness in my heart still exist."

His emptiness is far greater than that of Ruoye Mu.

So, he could hear it.

"You are not playing with the same feeling as I am."

"..."

"The song of the lights also sings about your feelings that are difficult to express."

"..."

"Well, in my opinion, this is not something that is difficult to express."

Shengren spread his hands.

"Let me say this, though I don't think it's necessary to say it."

He stood up, walked to Ruoye Mu and squatted down.

"Wakaba Mutsu is my important friend, not because she is the daughter of Mr. Wakaba and Minami Mori, not because she is Toyokawa Shoko's childhood sweetheart."

Not because of the looks she inherited from her parents, or even because of her guitar skills.

"I am willing to help Mu and be friends with Mu, just because you are you, that's all."

Taking in Wakaba Mutsu's pupils that were like an earthquake, Shengren smiled lightly and stood up.

"Well, I'm going back. As I said before, if you encounter anything you can't handle, you can call me."

As he said this, he came to the stairs and prepared to go upstairs.

And just then.

"Help Xiang, help Soyo."

Ruoye Mu's voice sounded behind his head.

Chapter 192: Master Ruoye

Today is a day worth remembering.

At this moment, at this moment.

After more than half a year...

After nearly a year of struggle, Shengren finally solved the core mystery and reached Wakaba Mutsu's heart.

If this is a chess game called Wakaba Mutsu, then the winner at this moment is already qualified to be the GameMaster of this game.

cough cough.

The joke is limited to imagination.

Katsuto stepped onto the stairs and pulled his foot back.

He returned to Ruoye Mu's side.

Squat down.

Looking down at Wakaba Mu's face from the side and below.

smiling.

"..."

Ruo Ye Mu wanted to look away, but Sheng Ren's warm and kind gaze held her tightly, making it impossible for her to escape.

"Tell me about it."

"...I can't speak."

Ruoye Mu said in a low voice.

"As soon as I speak, things will get worse..."

"It's okay... Even if things get bad, I'll pull it back."

"..."

Shengren's eyes were full of confidence.

A reliable winner...

At this moment, Wakaba Mu recalled what happened at Yuze Cafe that day.

When he was at a loss as to what to do because of the quarrel between Shengren and Xiangzi, Shengren gave him a reassuring look.

Then, the problem was solved.

"So tell me what's going on in your mind, Mu. Tell me."

If Ye Mu couldn't escape.

She didn't want to escape either.

Just sinking into the void.

(King Crimson!)

Then, Shengren finally understood everything.

He finally figured out the cause of the Kasuga Shadow Incident.

First, Nagasaki Suyo put pressure on Wakaba Mutsu, and Wakaba Mutsu went to find Xiangzi and told Xiangzi that Suyo cared about her.

If Ye Mu went to find Xiangzi, there would be some meaningless dialogues.

Next, Nagasaki Suyo discovered that Toyokawa Shoko was in Hanegaoka for some reason (probably Chihaya Aine) and blocked the door.

Then, after repeated harassment from Nagasaki Suyo, Toyokawa Shoko could no longer bear it and went to find Wakaba Mutsu.

Wakaba Mutsu told Toyokawa Shoko that Nagasaki Suyo was forming a band and invited herself, which Toyokawa Shoko interpreted as "Is this revenge on me?"

So she decided to go find Nagasaki Motoyo and talk it out.

Wakaba Mu asked if they wanted to go to Tsuki no Mori, which broke down Toyokawa Shoko's defense, and then he told her that she could see it on Live.

The story ends with the sound of the song "Haruhi Shadow".

After hearing the whole story, Shengren couldn't help but sigh.

"Hey, Soyo, Soyo."

You will understand it after you sort it out again.
