MyGO? The string value monster craves the band girl!

Chapter 56 I thought my tears had dried up

"Misaki-chan... Wei-chan really didn't lie to us. Xinxin had actually restrained herself at school..."

Sitting on a beach chair next to the outdoor swimming pool, Kanon watched Genmaki Shin swimming back and forth in the lane at the speed of a swordfish without showing any signs of fatigue or slowing down. She didn't even bother to drink the lemonade in her hand, and whispered with Misaki beside her.

Having just come out of the pool after a swim, Seta Kaoru, wrapped in a bath towel, reached out to smooth over her bangs and sighed in a poetic and romantic tone:

"Hakanai (Dream)~~~"

Kitazawa Ikumi, who was still in the pool, swimming on her back at a healthy pace in the lane next to Genmaki Shin, looked at the figure of Genmaki Shin who was crossing her path at a sprint speed again, unable to suppress the worry in her heart:

“Xinxin…”

During this time, even if Xinxin felt like playing in the pool, it was just a more casual way of exercising, like swimming competitions with others or playing with a ball...

It's not like now, sprinting repeatedly at a speed faster than an Olympic champion.

Finally, under the worried and nervous gazes of his companions, Xian Juanxin, who had continued to swim for many rounds, grabbed the ladder beside the swimming pool, showed a bright smile to everyone, and raised his scissors hands high.

"Yeah~"

With red eyes, Xian Juanxin climbed up the ladder and walked straight to the locker room with her back to everyone.

"Sure enough, you should eat watermelon after exercising!"

The man in black, who was guarding in a dark place out of sight of the five people, received the instructions and immediately brought several plates full of watermelons to the round table on the beach next to them.

"Everyone, we're having a barbecue party tonight!"

Entering the single dressing room separated by the public corridor, Xian Juanxin locked the door as soon as she entered.

Sitting on the bench, Xian Juanxin did not take the bath towel that had been prepared in a conspicuous place in advance. She just lowered her head and watched the water droplets dripping down her golden hair.

"I thought... my tears had dried in the swimming pool."

Xian Juanxin's voice trembled slightly as she talked to herself. After choking for a moment, she finally couldn't help but cover her eyes.

"Good... No one noticed just now! As expected, with your face soaked with water after swimming, you can't even see your tears."

"But if I cry again now... wouldn't it be a waste of everyone's time just going to the pool..."

"It feels like... even though I just swam for a long time and my tears wouldn't be noticed if they fell into the pool, there are still some left that are slowly overflowing."

Xian Juanxin wiped her eyes roughly with the back of her hand, picked up the bath towel beside her and began to wipe her body.

"We can't linger here any longer. Everyone will probably be here soon. Misaki and Kanon were already worried about me before we came to the pool."

After wiping off the water droplets on the surface of her body, Xian Juanxin did not blow dry her hair in the locker room, but quickly changed into a brand new shirt and casual clothes from the closet.

With his hair wet, Xian Juanxin quickly walked to the passage on the other side of the locker room and said to the man in black guarding the end:

"Please unlock the door to the dressing room of our hospital."

"Please ask the makeup artist to touch up my makeup after I return to my room and rest."

"Yes, Miss Xin!" the man in black responded immediately.

A moment later, the four people who struggled out of the watermelon pile came to the door of the locker room. Before they opened the door, they saw the man in black pushing the door out.

"Everyone, Miss Xin is a little tired and has returned to her room to rest. Please do as you please, but please give Miss Xin enough time to rest."

Hearing the black-clad man politely reject their request to visit Genmaki's heart, Misaki lowered her head and said in a deep voice:

"We understand...thank you."

After receiving the reply, the man in black nodded and left, but he was still worried about Xian Juanxin in his heart.

Miss Xin does not completely avoid makeup. When performing large-scale or joint live performances, she will wear some light makeup out of respect for her partners and the audience.

But as far as she could remember, it was the first time that Miss Xin asked to wear makeup during her daily life when she was not performing.

Xian Juanxin's unusual voice and the fleeting, slightly haggard expression just now replayed in her mind, but due to their duties, in the absence of Miss Xin's parents and brothers, they could not do anything extra without Miss Xin's explicit instructions.

In the room of the cruise ship, Xian Juanxin slowly dried her hair in front of the dressing mirror.

Her fingers gently slid half a circle around her lower eyelid. The obvious signs of redness made Xian Juanxin finally give up the idea of ​​"self-healing" and she tiredly raised her hands to support her face.

As the person closest to Xianjuan Wei, she certainly knows her brother best.

Many things are buried deep in the heart, and even the heart cannot see them; but once they are put into action, they are obvious.

Her brother pays more and more special attention to some of his friends in the bands he made in Circle. Although he basically concentrates on his studies, he will also show his presence more without disturbing their lives too much. In her eyes, his thoughts are like flashes, and she is the person who has the most information besides Genmaki Yui herself.

She has always been aware of this and has never expressed any objection.

Because my brother will get married sooner or later, right?

If my friend could be treated the same way by her brother as he treats her, she would naturally be very happy.

With her brother taking on the responsibility of the future Xianjuan family, she just needs to be happy all her life and do what she wants, and her parents and brothers will protect her.

She didn't want her brother to lose his smile because of emotional matters. If her friend himself had no objection, then what reason did she have to object?

If I have to choose only one girl, my brother and the other girls will lose their smiles, right?

Compared to what others think or what laws and regulations stipulate, of course, the happiness and joy that comes from the heart is what matters most.

But when what she had always known would happen sooner or later came true and her familiar life and way of getting along were about to change, Xian Juanxin still felt confused.

And... the feeling of having the half of my heart that originally belonged to my family torn apart.

If the person my brother likes is my friend, then at least the part that belongs to him can be patched up and glued back, right?

"But... why did Xiaomu come first? We haven't played together in years..."

Xian Juanxin murmured, and she adjusted her mentality quickly and her voice returned to normal.

“I thought the first one would be Yukina, Liza, Rinrin, Saaya, Megumin, etc…”

"Why... I thought I knew my brother's preferences very well..."

"But it's also good... If they choose my friends, at least the time I spend happily with my brother and everyone else won't be reduced too much!"

----

Tokyo, Genmaki family estate.

Just as Xianjuanxin understood him, Xianjuanwei could roughly guess Xianjuanxin's mentality when he heard her voice suddenly change at the end of the phone call.

"It might be a little strange for you, but this is something I'll have to do sooner or later..."

"It's just that I interrupted my studies a few months earlier than expected, and the priority of spending time with people has changed a little..."

"When I first decided to be a pure love warrior, I had no intention of becoming one. I originally wanted to start with girls like Youxina who are already in college and have as much free time as I do, but now plans have changed."

Knowing that his words must have ruined Xianjuan's mood, Xianjuan, who was a little emo and kept drawing abstract paintings on a piece of paper, received a call from the man in black after a while.

"Master, according to what Miss Chihaya said about her interest in film and television, the two directors you requested to contact have already agreed to our conditions and invitation."

Breaking free from his original emotions, Xianjuan Wei breathed a sigh of relief and replied:

"Okay, when we sign the contract with Aiyin tomorrow, we'll lower the salary. Her family doesn't need that little bit of money. The important thing is not to scare her away first. The bigger things are coming later."

"And...never mind, I'll say this myself."

After hanging up the phone, Xian Juanwei started Line.

"Xiao Mu, have you returned home safely?"

"Ah."

"That's good. No one's home today. I'm afraid of ghosts, but I won't be afraid when I find you to sleep on my bed later."

"?"

"Don't you know, Xiao Mu, that ghosts won't attack if there's more than one person in a room?"

"I'm not afraid of ghosts."

"I'm afraid."

"...You used to be the one who took the lead in breaking other people's mechanisms in the haunted house."

After a few seconds, Ruo Yemu sent another message.

"You weren't scared at all the last time you watched a movie."

"I'm getting scared again now. The more I think about it, the more scared I get. There's less traffic at this time of night. I can get there in an hour."

On the other end of the network signal, Wakaba Mutsu, who had the same feeling as Aine that morning that "this person is really hopeless", put his phone aside.

Now that things have come to this, let’s take a shower first.

Chapter 57: Did you not bring pajamas? Did you want to wear mine?

In the darkness of night, through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the room, Ruo Yemu lifted a corner of the curtains and looked towards the door.

The boy who had sent her a message three minutes ago got out of the car alone, and then looked up at the lighted room on the second floor.

Xianjuan Wei waved to Wakaba Mutsu, who was half exposed, through the floor-to-ceiling windows and curtains. At the same time, the servant of Wakaba's house opened the door for him.

When Xianjuan Wei was changing shoes at the entrance, Wakaba Mutsu, wearing light blue pajamas, also came down from the second floor.

"Good evening, Xiaomu, I'll be staying here tonight." Xianjuanwei smiled and nodded slightly at Ruoye Mu.

Standing at the end of the stairs, with his palms resting on the handrail, Wakaba Mu looked at Xianjuan Wei, who was dressed in black, white and gray, so simple that it looked like it was automatically generated by a game. He was silent for two seconds, then tilted his head and asked doubtfully:

"Wei Jun, why didn't you bring your pajamas?"

"You want to wear mine?"

The servant beside her said quickly, "Miss, we just received your instructions and are ready..."

Ruoye Mu tilted his head and glanced at the servant who was eager to explain. Although his eyes were not related to words like "ferocious", they were so calm and indifferent that the person who looked at him couldn't help feeling guilty.

The servant, who was still a little anxious and worried about causing misunderstanding to this special "guest", was stunned for a moment by the look of her young lady, which she rarely showed. Then she regained her composure and quickly retreated.

The young lady had asked them to prepare the pajamas just now, how could she have forgotten about them so quickly...

Xianjuan Wei, who had changed into slippers, exchanged glances with Wakaba Mu. He then looked up and down at Wakaba Mu's pajamas and said regretfully:

"Thank you, Xiao Mu. Unfortunately, I probably won't be able to fit into it."

"It's ok."

Ruoye Mu nodded as if nothing had happened, then his eyes narrowed slightly and his voice became more cheerful:

"It'll be fine if you change into a dress."

Seeing that Xianjuan Wei finally showed an expression of sweat, Wakaba Mu, who felt that he had turned the game around, took Xianjuan Wei to the living room.

"Warm milk, please?"

On the coffee table, several boxes of milk were being kept warm in a water bath.

He said "hmm", sat on the sofa and opened the carton of milk.

Ruoye Mu sat on the sofa beside him and also sipped the milk.

"I have to go to school tomorrow, so I set my alarm very early. Is that okay, Weijun?" Ruoye Mu asked while maintaining a calm expression.

Xian Juanwei nodded, not minding at all: "It's okay, my alarm is at 4:30 in the morning."

Ruoye Mu: "..."

Xianjuan Wei saw that the milky white liquid that was constantly pumping in the straw held by Ruoye Mu suddenly stopped pumping, and the straw turned back to its original translucent color.

"So, what time does Wei-jun go to bed at night?"

"11:30 to 1:30."

"You won't live long like this."

"It doesn't matter. I just rescheduled my frail old age to a younger age when I'm in the best health and can enjoy the most fun."

Xianjuan Wei put the milk back on the coffee table, turned sideways and looked at Ruoye Mu and said:

"Come to think of it, when I first watched crychic's dynamic video, Xiaomu's guitar playing was already very good."

"I've had an impression of Xiaomu's guitar before. It was when you were little and you were so flustered even pressing the strings."

Wakaba Mu nodded and asked:

"Do you, Wei-jun, want to hear me play?"

Pointing to the entrance to the underground room, Ruo Yemu said calmly: "Then let's go to the practice room."

However, Xian Juanwei raised his hand and pointed to the second floor:
