Their restricted abilities are refreshed every week.

"It's delicious, Suho-kun, you're a good person."

Ogurimao's eyes lit up, and then Suho Yuki saw that the other party's favorability had increased by 10 points on the modifier.

what?

Yuki Suho stared blankly at Oguruma finishing up ten times her appetite in just a few minutes - including half a bottle of ghost pepper.

"Sixty percent full, just right."

Oguruma touched his slightly swollen belly and looked at Shirakawa Haru who had only eaten half of it.

Chapter 6: You Won't Meet a Guitar Hero Around a Dark Corner

It is almost a formula of my philosophy that the deepest spirit must also be the most frivolous.

-Nietzsche

-

"Haru-kun, your relationship with Oguri-san is definitely not that simple."

"Are you doubting my personality, Yuki?"

"Oh, our President Qing's charisma is truly extraordinary~"

After lunch, Shirakawa Haru and Suho Yuki walked side by side in the empty corridor.

——Since Oguruma still needed to go back to the dormitory to take a shower and change clothes before leaving, Shirakawa Haru suggested taking away some information left in the student union and sorting it out first to avoid trouble after school starts.

"Alas, I've said it so many times, strong people are attracted to each other..."

Baichuan Qing closed his eyes and shook his head. Just as he was about to sigh, he suddenly felt himself bumping into a low wall.

Oh my god, how come there is a timing man at the corner of the school during summer vacation——!

Without time to sigh, Baichuan Qing quickly opened his eyes and stood firm, then he could see the true form of the "wall".

——A pink creature with a big, thick, black box on its back and yellow, blue and yellow dots on its head!

Just as Yuki Suho exclaimed, Shirakawa Haru quickly made an absolutely correct judgment.

Let’s not talk about the pink creature that has already started to twist and scream.

The most important thing now is to prevent the big black box that probably contains musical instruments from falling to the ground!

——This is the same as when a cyclist falls off his bike and the first thing he does is to care about his bike instead of calling an ambulance; when a fisherman falls into a river, his first reaction is to throw the fishing rod onto the shore.

Amidst the trembling screams of the unknown pink creature, Shirakawa Haru stretched out his right hand in a flash, clasped his five fingers together, and firmly grasped the extremely heavy black box.

Two centimeters before it hit the ground.

"sorry Sorry sorry……"

"It's really dangerous..."

Before Baichuan Qing could breathe a sigh of relief, his attention was attracted by the sound made by an unknown pink creature.

If you listen carefully, you will find that it is a strange piece of music composed of a series of "I'm sorry".

Even with Baichuan Qing's knowledge, he couldn't help but fall into a brief contemplation.

——What is this, some niche and novel heavy metal rock?

"Classmate, your guitar is fine."

Shirakawa Haru squatted down in confusion and handed the guitar bag in his hand to the pink-haired girl who was still twitching and saying sorry.

"Ah, thank you..."

The moment her hand touched the intact guitar bag again, the girl visibly breathed a sigh of relief and recovered from her distorted state.

But the moment she looked up and saw the smiling Shirakawa Haru, she began to tremble all over and began to say "I'm sorry".

This is probably the subconscious reaction of the super Yin corner encountering the invincible Yang corner.

"Looks like I've met the Pro Max of Social Anxiety, Onii-chan..."

Yuki's soft whisper came from his ear, making Shirakawa Haru stunned for a moment, then he restrained his excessive smile and spoke softly to the pink-haired girl who collapsed on the ground:

"Actually, I should be the one saying sorry, classmate... I was just distracted by the sight of the textile bag you were carrying and the badge on it."

As soon as these words were spoken, the girl regained consciousness and looked at Shirakawa Haru with an expression that could not be suppressed.

So Baichuan Qing paused and said the answer that the other party was expecting:

"——Classmate, you are in a band, right?"

"Ah! Ugh! Ouch, hehe, that one was accidentally discovered..."

"Bravo."

Shirakawa Haru sighed, and then saw the girl revealing an unconcealable nympho smile.

——This is too easy to deal with.

The two of them thought of this at the same time, and then Shirakawa Haru praised each other again, and finally pulled her up from the ground.

"My name is Shirakawa Haru. Classmate, you can call me Shirakawa or Haru. What's your name?"

"I, I, I, I... My name is Goto Ichiri... Shirakawa-kun, are you also in a band?"

——Can you still play in a band if you have this level of social anxiety?

The band is amazing, right?

“Even though I don’t play it, I listen to it every day.”

"Actually, I envy those who can play in a band. They can stand on the stage and shine, and receive the cheers and support from the audience..."

Shirakawa Haru curled the corners of his mouth gently, and noticed Goto Ichiri's pocket moving constantly, revealing a corner of the Line page on his phone.

——Thought you met someone like you, would you like to add me as your friend?

——But if I didn't take the initiative, she would never say this request.

so,

Social anxiety is trouble.

Thinking of this, Baichuan Qing pretended to be hesitant and handed over the phone:

"Want to add me as a friend, Goto-kun?"

"Ah... OK! Thank you very much!"

Looking at Goto Ichiri, who became so light and elated as if he was about to grow a pair of wings and fly into heaven just because he added a stranger "like-minded person", Shirakawa Haru didn't know what to say.

Finally, I asked the question I wanted to ask at the beginning.

"——Goto-san, are you here at school now? Is there anything you need help with?"

The girl in the pink tracksuit looked up blankly upon hearing this: "Ah... didn't they say that school starts this afternoon?"

"Then I think you got the time wrong, Goto-san." Shirakawa Haru showed her the calendar on his phone: "School starts in a week."

"Ugh?"

Goto Ichiri was stunned.

Goto Ichiri stiffened.

Steam erupted from Goto Ichiri's head.

"Yes, yes, yes, I'm sorry, I made a mistake—!"

In the stretched-out and out-of-tune apology, Goto Ichiri's legs turned into wind wheels and disappeared from Shirakawa Haru's sight in a flash.

In a flash, the school corridor became quiet again.

It was also the first time that Suho Yuki had seen such a pure social anxiety. She was stunned for a long time before jokingly saying, "Because of President Haru's charm, she also became a friend of the band girl."

"..."

"Yuki, social anxiety is really troublesome."

Bai Chuanqing lowered his eyes and sighed tiredly: "I can't be as taciturn as her, but I can't be too sunny either. I need to pay attention to her expression and actions to judge her true thoughts. I need to talk, but I can't say too much..."

"If this goes on, I'm going to become a male mother."

Suho Yuki raised an eyebrow. "So, President Qing is saying that you really hate people who are afraid to say or do anything, but you're embarrassed to point it out directly because of the other person's face?"

"——It's normal for someone like Haru-kun to dislike someone who dares to try and isn't afraid of failure."

"Rather, quite the opposite."

Baichuan Qing shook his head and bit his words seriously:

"Besides me, who else would have the mind and energy to hold on to a dark corner of life where I dare not take the initiative or refuse anything, and test the tentacles of this world?"

He shook Goto Ichiri's gloomy profile picture on Line, patted his sister's head, and chuckled:

"You have to give others courage, Yuki."

Yuki Suho stood there with a slight smile on his lips.

First, look at Shirakawa Haru, who makes no secret of his aversion to social anxiety like Pochi-chan, and then listen to his affirmative answer without hesitation.

——The interweaving of two completely different feelings touched Yuki Suho's heartstrings.

Ah, yeah.

——Precisely because I hate abnormalities, I must lend a helping hand.

——Precisely because you don’t want to see it, you should smile even more.

This is the Shirakawa Haru that she knows and likes.

Isn't this the reason why I fell in love with my brother from the very beginning?

He hated his sickly self and his asthma, so he ran away from home in the name of playing, went to one big hospital after another for examination, and looked for one famous doctor after another.

At that time, Shirakawa Haru spent all the money he earned, which was enough for an ordinary person to live a carefree life, on her without any hesitation.

When he came back, he was kicked out of the house by the furious Zhou Fang family and treated like disposable garbage.

——She only heard this later by accident.

Yuki Suho thought that if her favorability towards Shirakawa Haru could be quantified by a modifier, it would probably have exceeded 100 by now.

Ah... I'm so happy to like someone like Qing...

Although I want my brother to be happy too, why do I always want to have such a brother for myself?

"What are you standing there for? Let's go faster. Don't let Xiaoli wait for us."

Yuki Suho nodded with a bright smile.

——But as a selfish person like me, am I really qualified to say the word "love" to my brother?

The little devil in her also laughed, a happy smile.

——Precisely because I don’t have it, I become more greedy.

"Here you are, President Qing~"

The girl followed behind Shirakawa Haru in small steps.

Sister Yuki Suho's performance today was also perfect.

Chapter 7 modifier, start it for me!

"Oguri-san, which one do you want to eat?"

"All."

"Ugh?"

"All."

Looking at Yuki Suho who was standing at the door in a daze, and Oguruma who had already walked into the ice cream shop and came out holding an ice cream that was almost as tall as a person.

"Souho-kun, Taiyo-kun, here you go."

Taking the vanilla ice cream that he hadn't eaten for who knows how long, Shirakawa Haru couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
