Why play in a band if you don't form one for life?

Sha Ling smiled silently.

"It's rare for me to be frank." She waved her palm in front of Arisaki's face teasingly, "I like Arisaki the most, too. The same goes for Satomi, Megumin, and Kasumi."

Arisaki raised his head, looked at Saaya, and they couldn't help but laugh together.

I don’t know who you are laughing at.

The Revue had just ended.

After the performers left, only the scenery remained on the stage.

Shizi stood at the gap in the wooden board, stroking the rough surface.

"Hum~Hum~Hum~Hum~" She hummed the tune softly.

Nana appeared from behind the wooden board: "I heard music from far away."

She was repeating the lyrics from her previous Revue.

Shizi stopped humming.

"Before, my biggest impression of this song was that, besides the level 26 Hanazono Denki, this was my last FC character song." Shizi didn't care whether Nana could understand it or not, "Yeah, it's a good song."

She turned and headed for the exit, and Nana followed her in silence.

Chapter 35 Behind the Scenes

"We travel light, with a pair of lightweight shoes that can go a long way, and a pen and a notepad in our pockets. That's all we need." Shizi paced in the corridor, solemnly muttering, "Abandoning luxury, eliminating pride, using the sea as our stage, passion as our boat, and raising the flag of ambition, we, the 99th batch of students of the Stage Creation Science, will..."

"I don't remember when you became Shengxiang's student." Nana interrupted her monologue.

Shizi regretfully explained: "I just always thought this sentence was very cool, so I found a chance to say it once..."

"..." Nana glanced at her and smiled slightly, "I'm not a complainer. No matter how stupid Shiko-chan is, I won't complain."

"You've already complained." Shizi didn't know what he was happy about.

The two walked into the park. Shizi stopped and said, "Let's separate here. Nana, you know what I mean."

"Hmm?" Nana tilted her head, "What do you know?"

“Hehehe,” Shizi covered his eyes like some villainous boss, “That’s it… The first act has ended, and the second act has not yet begun. It’s our turn. It’s mygo.”

"Hmm..." Nana understood a little, but she was just teasing Shizi, "I still hope you can explain it more clearly."

Shizi's body stiffened, and he twisted his neck at an angle that violated human anatomy, staring at Nana with a dull look: "Nana. Understanding is necessary."

However, she saw Nana pointing her phone at her and taking a picture.

To be honest, the aura that Shizi just created was very good, but unfortunately because of her height, she had to look up at Nana, which made her lose all the atmosphere and even look cute.

Shizi herself was obviously aware of this, and she coughed dryly and straightened her neck with a click: "Anyway, before Saaya finds Kasumi, let's prepare a perfect stage for them."

Nana saluted: "Yes, sir~"

In the pavilion of the park, Shizi was holding a book and reading quietly.

There were footsteps. It was Sha Ling.

"Shizi, have you seen Kasumi?"

Shizi came back to his senses from the book and turned his head: "Ah? Ah. It seems to have gone that way."

She pointed in the direction of the airship's rear.

"Thank you." Sha Ling thanked him and went over there.

It shows that the son should concentrate on his books again.

Shortly after Sha Ling left, Shizi's body suddenly disintegrated and turned into iron T shapes.

Lisa walked down the hallway.

Revue finished the game and won, feeling very comfortable, she wanted to go to the stern of the boat to breathe some fresh air.

There are three roads leading to the small platform, two of which are outer corridors surrounding the entire ship, and one is the main road inside. Lisa walked on the road on the right, but found that the intersection of the roads was cordoned off.

Shizi was standing there, and when he saw her, he raised his hand and made a "hush" gesture.

She was a little curious, so she walked over carefully and asked with her eyes: "What's going on?"

However, Shizi didn't look at her, but looked behind her.

Lisa felt a chill on her back and turned around immediately. She saw Nana standing behind her. She looked at her apologetically and made an "OK" gesture to Shizi.

Shizi understood, waved his hand, removed the cordon at the intersection, and took the other two people and hid in the dark.

Not long after, Kasumi came over from another intersection.

Her temperament was different from usual, which made Lisa a little suspicious.

Kasumi didn't notice the three people, but climbed the stairs, opened the door, and entered the platform.

Lisa still didn't know what was going on. She looked at Shizi and was about to speak in a low voice, but Shizi pointed in another direction, and the hair accessories on her head flashed faintly. Lisa saw through the layers of walls that a block of color in the distance was slowly moving towards this side.

That's Saaya.

Lisa suddenly realized something, nodded, stood up, waved to the two of them, and slipped away.

Shiko and Nana are still waiting.

This place was not a popular place to begin with, and after Lisa left, no one came here anymore.

Sha Ling appeared at the central intersection.

Nana looked at Shiko, who gestured to indicate that it was okay, and stared closely at Saaya's actions, waiting quietly.

Sa-ling climbed the steps and put her hand on the door handle.

At this time, flames were dancing in Shizi's left eye and frost was dancing in his right eye.

Kasumi stood on the platform, waiting for Saaya to arrive.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew in the face, and Kasumi's hair flew up and floated backwards.

At this time, the door opened.

When Saaya opened the door, she saw Kasumi turning around with her hair flying.

Shiko and Nana high-fived each other briefly.

The astronauts cannot directly control the wind, but they can still create a temperature difference and induce a directional strong wind.

It's just a stage device.

Shizi looked into the distance again and found that the color block belonging to Arisaki was approaching. She stood up with satisfaction, stopped the wind, and left quietly.

"Aren't you going to continue watching?" Nana followed behind and asked in a low voice, "I thought you liked watching this kind of thing."

"I like it," Shizi replied, "but it was one thing to be in the stands before, but now I'm hiding on the side and peeking... I always feel that it's not very polite."

Nana nodded, quite satisfied.

Shizi stopped at a place where he could not hear the conversation over there but could monitor the intersection. He snapped his fingers, and a copy of himself appeared in front of him. The light of personality quickly flashed in his body, and he turned and left.

"But I definitely want to watch the replay." Shizi leaned against the wall, unable to suppress a silly smile, "Virtual personalities are so convenient, they can even record videos."

Nana stared at her blankly. "(Is this the end of your politeness?)" Although she didn't say it out loud, she was complaining in her heart.

"Hehehe." She suddenly covered her mouth and laughed, and even tears appeared in the corners of her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Shizi looked at her.

Nana opened her eyes and wiped away the tears from her eyes: "Nothing... I just think it's great to have a little Shiko like this."

"Ah?" Shizi's expression twitched, "Okay?"

"Compared to... that time." Nana said softly.

The smile on Shizi's face disappeared.

"At that time?" She looked into Nana's eyes, her heart suddenly tensed, "What exactly was it..."

There was a flash of knife before my eyes.

The last thing I saw was Nana’s apologetic look.

Shiko's clone wandered around the airship and finally met Satomi and Tae at the bar. They happened to be sitting together eating dessert.

Seeing Shizi, Duohui called out: "Shizi~"

Shizi poured a glass of juice and sat down next to them.

"Did you go to see our live before?" Rimi said with some anticipation.

Shizi scratched his head and said, "I'm sorry, I was looking at other people the whole time... um, I was looking at Sa-ling."

"Sa Ling? What's wrong?" Duohui tilted her head.

Shizi considered his words carefully: "It's hard to say specifically, but... you guys should pay more attention to her today."

Rimi's eyes flickered, as if she understood something.

"Yes. Thank you for telling us." Rimi stood up and pulled Duohui, who still didn't know what was going on, "Let's go, Xiao Huihui, don't ask anymore."

Shizi sipped the juice quietly.

On a whim, she started trying to mix drinks.

Chapter 36 Countdown

"Position 0!"

On the stage, buttons flew up and landed next to Shizi.

Today's Revue is over.

Shizi let out a long sigh.

Every revue is so wonderful, but so short.

She shook her head and got rid of the feeling of regret.

There was still a lot of time left in the audition, so she could watch it for a long time.

The two people on the stage were covered by the curtain, and they must have returned to the airship. The giraffe beside them also left at some point. Nana was not there the whole time, and she was watching another stage today.

Now, it's time to work.

She walked down from the audience, through several intersections, and into an area under the stage.

This was a dark area, and it was hard to tell how big it was. There were no lights, but the ground was covered with red spider lilies that looked like wicked fire, emitting a strange fluorescence.

Shizi walked forward, the flowers swayed, and all the sounds were swallowed up by the space itself, even Shizi's own heartbeat. She stopped at the only gap in the sea of flowers.

This is the "Road of Fire" she created.

Learned from the Garden of Eden, replicated here, the miracle of reversing life and death.

"First of all, let me remind you," Giraffe warned Shizi and Nana when the Audition just started, "Although you have the ability to leave this space at any time, don't try."

"Why?" asked Shizi.

"If you leave, you will reveal the aura of this place, and now is the audit period." The giraffe lowered his head, "Even if it's just a little bit, the aura here is too obvious. I'm afraid His true body will come directly."

Shizi asked, "It will be OK after the Audition is over?"

“Not necessarily.” The giraffe’s tone did not change at all. “After the audit, my presence is still here. In the eyes of a being of my stature, this presence is also very obvious. But I don’t know how He will react to this.”

"That is to say," Nana concluded, "it is possible that we will face the final battle after leaving this space."

"The final chapter ends so quickly..." Shizi sighed, "But it seems that there is really nothing to prepare for in the world outside."

"There will always be an ending." Nana comforted, "We have done our best for a perfect ending."

"I still want to try to do more." Shizi lay on the back of the chair.

The sea of red spider lilies where she is now is what she calls "doing a little more."

Just one last bit.

Shizi started working.

Originally, she had already fully understood the principle of the Fire Road, and with her ability, it would not take much effort to copy it. Before entering this place, Shizi had already set up their "resurrection points" in several places in the desert.
