like.

I love this taste, the taste of this kiss.

The sweetness is just an illusion created by black tea, and the floral fragrance is simply because you've just chewed pastries made from flower petals and haven't rinsed your mouth yet.

But it's in this flavor.

Yet they retain the same unchanging essence.

It's her scent, it's his scent.

I want to do it.

I want to do more.

-

Stars.

Underground passage, lower level, shop entrance.

Ichi Nijika has forgotten how she got through it all.

She skipped school.

Although it was already after school, she had indeed skipped school. She left before the school bell rang.

It should be ringing now.

Then let it ring.

Will the Light Music Club change because she's not going?

Will not.

Just like yesterday, she waited all night but Naruzawa Kaede and Yamada Ryo didn't show up.

Ichi Nijika felt a lump in her throat.

The place where those two people were was the Light Music Club. She was just an outsider who happened to be in that classroom.

Ichi Nijika stared blankly at the shop entrance for a moment.

Perhaps it was because the school was closer to here, or perhaps it was because it was her sister and her shop that she instinctively came here.

But if we arrive this early, the door probably won't even be open.

It's 3:30 PM, and Xingge should still be home. She usually spends her time at home reading some strange and unusual shoujo manga.

"...well?"

"Wasn't the door locked...?"

Ichi Nijika wiped her nose with her wrist and saw the unlocked door and the sign that the store was not yet open for business.

With a gentle push, the door creaked open.

Ichi Nijika's heart pounded.

Was it my sister who arrived early? Or a thief? Was it a burglary?

She looked at the bright sky, then at the open shop door. Her heart pounded.

After experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions, Ichiji Nijika took out her phone, gripped it tightly, and brought up the emergency call page.

No matter what, this is all she has left.

No one could stop her from going down.

"..."

There was nothing unusual.

The only light source was where Xingge usually sat. On the lit computer screen, there was only one open folder.

**Video recording of a private cabin**.

Ichi Nijika frowned, sensing that something was amiss.

Chapter 93 Hongxia is Broken / Xiangzi's Mission

The basement was dimly lit, without a single light. Under the starry sky, the silence was so profound that you could hear a pin drop.

Ichi Nijika slowly moved forward and stood in front of the computer behind the bar.

The air became thick and stagnant, making it difficult to breathe.

In the pitch-black basement, all that remained before Ichiji Nijika's eyes was the glowing computer screen.

The folder marked "Secret Hut" had a unique, alluring feel that also made Ichiji Nijika wary.

She had experienced this feeling when she first arrived at the activity room. And that's why, when she opened the door a crack, she witnessed a scene that was hard for her to accept.

Nothing happened in the starry basement.

My sister must have been to this shop before.

As Ichika thought about it, her gaze was fixed on the name 'Private Cabin' on the folder on the computer screen.

She hates the name.

This name reminds her of the activity room of the Light Music Club.

There was no longer a place for her in the activity room for the Light Music Club.

That's why she came here. To the Stars.

So, what exactly did my sister save on the computer in the store?

Do you want to look at springs in the store?

Ichika licked her lips. She raised her hand and covered the mouse. As the cursor moved on the computer screen, the small white triangle landed on the folder.

Wait...

Let's turn the volume down first.

Let's just mute it.

As she moved the cursor back to the folder, with each click of the left mouse button, Ichiji Nijika's heartbeat quickened with each mouse movement.

The computer screen was very bright, bathing Ichiji Nijika's blushing face in its light.

'Seriously, what am I doing?'

'Having just gone through all that, you still have the leisure to do this?'

However, perhaps it is precisely because I saw so many things, so many things I didn't want to see,

That's why Ichi Nijika chose to escape here.

Because she was still running away from it, she opened this obviously unusual folder, which might contain her sister's little secrets.

So, what does Xingge usually watch?

many.

Her gaze was drawn to the folder overflowing with video files, and Ichiji Nijika quickly scanned it, spotting numerous names. She then scrolled to the bottom of the file list.

Weekly Summary (April 4.20th)

......

5.07 Four people

Among the numerous documents, the titles even indicated the names of multiple individuals.

Then an entry caught Ijichi Nijika's eye.

5.08 Hiroi, Eliza, Maple...

"well...?"

Once the human eye detects a keyword, it triggers a chain reaction.

As she scanned the area, Ichiji Nijika instantly discovered more and more of that name.

4.27 Eliza, Maple

4.23枫

4.29 Hiroi, Kaede

What is this?

Ichi Nijika licked her lips.

This is a band performance, right?

Yes, that's SickHack's performance at Stars.

Didn't I get to know Sister Xingge quite well last time at CriCle Feng?

The performance, yes, it was the band's performance on Starlight.

Last time, in May, didn't she see it too? When SickHack was performing on stage, Sister Xingge was squatting in the corridor leading to the stage, her hands clenched into fists.

Yes, that's it...

"Maple and her older sister became friends."

"My sister and Feng have become friends."

That's definitely it.

Clenching her teeth, Ichiji Nijika could hear them chattering. The intermittent clanging of her teeth tormented her pounding heart, thump, thump...

Ichi Nijika felt a wave of dizziness and nausea.

She felt she should retreat.

That's enough, Ichiji Nijika told herself.

If you keep watching...

What if we actually see something?

Yes, let's just give up like this.

In a daze, Ichiji Nijika saw the rain from that day again, and that figure from behind. Perhaps from that day on, two strangers had already drifted further and further apart.

Can you catch up...?

The mouse cursor moved to the video file from May 8th without permission. It was a video file titled with the names of three people. Ichiji Nijika stared intently at the file's title, focusing on the character "Maple".

Her eyes were bloodshot and filled with determination.

Ichi Nijika held her breath, staring intently at the screen, her hands trembling uncontrollably. Her index finger gently...

"Who's there?"

Shouts erupted behind him, loud and clear as thunder.

Ichi Nijika was so frightened that her whole body trembled, her heart pounded, and in her panic, she even dropped the mouse on the ground, making a few thuds.

"Yes, it's me, sister..."

The sound of Ijichi Seika's footsteps approached, and Ijichi Nijika subconsciously turned around.

At that moment, Ijichi Seika, who had come up behind Ijichi Nijika, saw the computer screen light up.

And then there's the screen that appears as it loads.

A blonde, a purple-haired, and a blonde-haired girl are hugging each other. The three hair colors and the three sizes are all tied together. The three of them are holding the same thing, kissing each other, and there isn't a single piece of clothing on their bodies.

"..."

Ijichi Hoshika's mind went completely blank.
