"I know~ Her singing voice is very touching."

"Right, right! That's simply... it's... it's the cry of my heart!" Li Xi was not sleepy at all when talking about this. He was so excited that he couldn't organize his words clearly.

"Yeah, that's right. I can't do that." How much does Li Xi like her...

"I told you! The lights are amazing!" Li Xi's mood improved visibly, as if he was being praised.

"Then, what about the girl next to her?" She's not a member of your previous band, right?

"She? She is the new transfer student in the class next to Deng." The topic shifted to other people, and Li Xi immediately lost interest.

"Transfer student? So they're so close, they're even holding hands." Sankaku Hatsuka couldn't do such an intimate gesture herself, "But I heard that holding hands is quite normal in Yuqiu's place. Friends who are close to each other sometimes hold hands."

"Huh?!" This was the first time Shiina Riki had heard this. "Holding hands, doesn't... doesn't it just mean... that?"

In the eyes of traditional Japanese girls, holding hands is a bit too intimate.

"I don't think so." Sanjiao Chuhua finished his tea and stood up. "Not yet?" He emphasized the pronunciation. "And I have something else to do, so I have to leave first."

"Oh...oh..." So, not yet. Shiina Riki suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, looked up and said goodbye to Chuhua, "Goodbye then."

"Bye-Bye."

What? Chuhua, you’re a pretty nice person.

Take out your phone, search for sumimi, and follow...

Chapter 25 Why...

"I...I'm back." It was the first time that Pochi brought someone home, and when he opened the door, his tone of voice when he greeted people inside lacked confidence.

He pushed the door open, looked back at the lamp, which was also a little reserved, and said, "Come in."

"Yeah." Pochi's house isn't as big as Xiangzi's...

When visiting his friend's house again, Gao Songdeng couldn't help but recall the last time Xiangzi invited him to her house. At that time, he was really shocked when he stood in front of such a huge mansion.

But... after Xiangzi left, he went there to look for her, but the door was never open to him. Shaking his head, he put aside the memories that were etched in his mind and followed Pochi into the door. "Excuse me."

"Dong dong dong."

The sound of hurried footsteps reached the ears of the two. Takamatsu Deng was still confused, while Pochi had already looked towards the stairs out of habit.

"Sister! Why are you back after going out to play..." Before she could finish the sentence "so early", Goto Jiri turned around and yelled towards the house: "Mom! Sister brought someone home!"

"It's not kidnapping!?"

"That's..." Takamatsu Deng looked at the child who looked exactly like Pochi, "A smaller version of Pochi?!"

"No...it's just my sister..." Pochi scratched his head, "My sister...is a little too lively."

"Lively..Pochi?"

"I..I'll probably never be this lively in my life." Pochi said as he led the lantern to his room, "I..I'll make you some tea."

I still have this common sense. The tea for entertaining guests is right here...right here...I have no idea where it is!

"Mom, where are the tea leaves?" After searching for a long time, I still couldn't find them. I had no choice but to ask for help, but after searching around, I couldn't see my mother anywhere. "Didn't Erli say that my mother was at home?"

In the end, I had to return to my room empty-handed.

But he found his mother hiding at the door of his room and eavesdropping, "Mom, what are you doing?"

"Shh..."

I saw her signaling to be quiet and looked inside following her gaze.

"Listen to me, listen to me, my sister looks so cool when she plays the guitar." Erli puffed out his chest and praised his sister, as if he was the one being praised.

"Woof woof!" Jimmy Henry also echoed from the side.

"Yes...is that so." It was the first time that Gao Songdeng faced such a familiar little girl, and he was obviously not used to it.

"But my sister is playing guitar in the closet now and won't let me watch."

"Wardrobe?" Why play guitar in a closet?

"Yes, it's here." Erli said as he was about to open the closet door, "My sister's secret base."

"Wait...wait a minute!" Pochi finally couldn't stand it anymore and closed the closet door. "There's...nothing to see inside."

"Sister is stingy!"

As Pochi came in, Takamatsu Deng also saw Goto's mother at the door and said, "Sorry...excuse me."

"It's okay, it's okay." The mother smiled and waved her hands. After all, this was the first time her eldest daughter brought a child home. "You guys play. I'll make you some tea."

"Erli, listen carefully! There are scary things in the closet. Don't open it carelessly!"

"Sister is lying again. There is nothing strange in it."

"Eh? You...you went in?" Although...although there was indeed nothing in there, wouldn't this highlight his own darkness? Most people would definitely not be able to stay in a closet with nothing in it for a whole day.

"Go in, it's uncomfortable to sleep in there." "Woof woof!"

"Gu..." I feel so sorry that my secret base is not so comfortable!

"Pochi, you have a really good relationship with your sister." Takamatsu Deng couldn't help but say this as he watched the two of them interacting. "You talk more than usual, too."

"Well...after all, they are family."

"Sister is such a hassle!"

"Gu..."

"The tea is here, be careful, it's hot." Goto's mother came in with a few cups of tea and placed them in front of everyone. "Come to think of it, I don't even know the child's name yet."

"My...my name is Takamatsu Deng." Deng stood up upon hearing that and introduced himself awkwardly.

"Hmm..." This kid doesn't talk much, no wonder he's such a good friend of Yili. "Okay, you guys go have fun, I won't bother you for now." Then he turned to look at Erli, "Erli, come here too, I need your help with something."

"Eh~ what what?"

As the door closed, only Pochi and Deng were left in the room.

"Eri, so cute..."

"Yeah... Everyone says Erli took away my sister's vitality spring, that's why I'm so gloomy..." Sure enough, everyone thinks Erli is cuter.

"No...that's not right! Pochi is cute too." Noticing Pochi's depression, Takamatsu Deng hurried to comfort him.

"Really?"

"Yeah. Speaking of which, I came to Pochi's house to listen to guitar."

"Yes... yes." Pochi picked up the guitar placed aside, then met Deng's expectant eyes and felt a surge of pressure. "Uh... I'll try."

As his hands moved, the guitar produced a melody. Deng, who knew nothing about musical instruments, only felt that it was amazing, and then there was a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"Uh..." Although she wasn't looking at the light, her eyes did bring her a lot of pressure. In this case... Although she was more focused, she still played a few discordant notes in succession.

"It still doesn't work..." Pochi stopped playing, feeling even more worried about the rehearsal to come.

"Is it...my problem?" Even I could hear the mistake I made just now, and it would be even worse if it were performed live.

"No... no matter who it is, as long as they're watching..." Just watching? What if no one is watching? Turning to look at his closet, "I have an idea."

Gao Songdeng watched Pochi open the wardrobe and go in, and thought he should go in too, but he didn't expect to be locked outside the door.

"that's it!"

Pochi's voice came through the closet door, and I understood what she meant. If no one saw me, would I be able to play properly? But this way...

Then came an impromptu sound check.

"No problem!" Hehe, as long as no one sees me, it's fine! What should I play next? I don't know what Deng likes, especially since she doesn't even know Sumimi... No! At a time like this, I should definitely play that! Come to think of it, the rhythm should be...

A powerful melody rang out, and Takamatsu Touma was transported back a year. The last time he heard this melody was at that live...

But why would Pochi remember that? Just because he glanced at his notebook? It had been so many days, how could he still remember it?

As the rhythm progresses, scenes from the past surround me, and then with that sentence,

"Obviously the thing that needs the most practice is the lamp, but what have you done so far?"

With this rebuke, the beautiful memories ended.

"How...how is it? I've only played it once, so I'm not very proficient."

"Have you played it once?" Gao Songdeng took a deep breath and suppressed his emotions.

"Yeah, at school."

School? Playing at school? I've never seen Pochi take out his guitar at school before. "Where? How come I don't know?"

"It's the music class after school." Pochi in the closet couldn't see Deng's expression and said it without any awareness.

Music classroom... Although Xiangzi has been avoiding her, she still knows her regular movements. "Is it... with Xiangzi?"

"Eh? How do you know?"

Really...

Xiangzi...it turns out he just doesn't want to see me...

Gao Songdeng raised his head and tried hard to hold back his tears, "I... I'm leaving first..."

"Eh?!"

Pochi opened the closet door and stared blankly at the empty room.

Did I... mess up?

Chapter 26 Weakness

"Xiao Mu, can you come out and see me tomorrow?"

It's another weekend, another weekend when I'm alone at home.

When she is alone, Nagasaki Suyo doesn't like to turn on the lights, because if she turns on the lights, she will see how empty the house is. She has to go downstairs to pour herself a glass of water and face the loneliness in the house.

A big house is really good for nothing except being big...

No...that's not right. This is the living standard that my mother worked so hard to earn. I can't deny her efforts just because of my own hypocrisy.

But...it's still so lonely...

I lay down on the bed, put my phone aside, looked up at the unchanging ceiling, and wondered how I was going to get through this weekend that was only half over.

"Ding Dong." The phone alert sounded.

It should be Mu's reply. After all, apart from her, there would be basically no one else who would contact me, and I basically had no contact with my classmates and the wind band on weekends.

When I opened my phone, what caught my eye was not the familiar cucumber flower avatar, but another annoying name.

"Pochi..."

...

"What what what what what should I do..." Pochi was a beat slow to react and only then realized that he should chase after him, but when he got outside the door, the light had already disappeared without a trace.

"Sister, what's going on?" Erli, who heard the noise, also walked out of the house with Jimmy Henry. Seeing his sister standing at the door in confusion, he asked, "Did they have a fight?"

"Wang Wang!"

"I...I don't know either, but no matter what, we have to find her first."

"Hehe~ It's times like this that require the help of professionals~"

"Professionals?"

"Go on, Jimmy Hen! It's up to you!"

"Woof?" Jimmy Henry just tilted his head and didn't make any other movements.

"This...this kind of thing is too..."

"Jimmy Henry is so useless!" Erli shouted and chased after Jimmy Henry, and they started to play together.

"Hmm..." Pochi turned his gaze back to the people at the intersection, "The lights...are they okay?"

To be honest, I really shouldn't have played Kasuga Shadow on impulse... After all, it was their shared memory. The last time I played it in the music classroom, Xiangzi's reaction was almost the same as Deng's.
