Crossover Anime: A Musical Anime - Lighthearted and Enjoyable

So, Hailing skipped class, right?

"Hailin, did you skip class?"

Bai Qiu quickened his pace and walked up to Hai Ling. Before Hai Ling could greet him, Bai Qiu asked this question first.

“Yes.” Hachiman Kairin nodded calmly, pointing to her school uniform: “But I only missed the afternoon.”

To Bai Qiu, Hai Ling's tone suggested a hint of regret for not skipping the morning classes as well.

"Don't talk about not going to school so casually..."

Although Bai Qiu had heard Li Xi say that Hanasaki River's passing requirements seemed low, he still asked:

"By the way, Hailing, are your grades okay?"

"It's not a big problem."

Yawata Kairin shook her head and answered without hesitation, "I can just borrow Riki's notes before the exam."

"I can rest assured that."

Bai Qiu smiled upon hearing this and decided not to delve any further into the matter.

Seeing this, Hachiman Kairin blinked thoughtfully.

If she had said earlier that her grades weren't good, would Bai Qiu have offered to tutor her?

Yawata Kairin suddenly felt a little regretful and answered too quickly.

However, considering the important matters at hand, she didn't dwell on it any longer and instead said:

"Bai Qiu, let's talk somewhere else."

"Okay," Bai Qiu agreed.

Considering that Hailing had sent him alone.

If Aine or Akari accidentally sees him and Hailin at the school gate, the two of them probably won't be able to leave so easily.

Chapter 364 Accompanying Hailing to Leave the Team

"What do you want to drink?"

"Coke is fine."

Yawata Kairin took Bai Qiu to a McDonald's, asking him what he wanted to drink while simultaneously ordering a family meal by scanning a QR code on her phone.

Bai Qiu stood aside, thinking inexplicably that being kept by Hai Ling felt pretty good.

After picking up their food, the two found an empty two-person table and sat down.

Bai Qiu naturally wouldn't stand on ceremony with Hai Ling.

He skillfully tore open the ketchup container, squeezed it into the box, and casually picked up a fragrant golden fries, dipped them in the bright red ketchup, and ate them.

However, Hachiman Kairin did not start eating immediately.

She picked up her cola and sipped it slowly, then stared intently at Bai Qiu across from her with admiring eyes.

They didn't try to hide it much.

Hai Ling's lips curled up slightly, clearly indicating that she was in a good mood.

She seemed very interested in observing Bai Qiu's eating habits.

This was also the first time she had eaten out alone with Bai Qiu.

"Hailing, aren't you going to eat? Why are you staring at me like that?"

At this moment, Bai Qiu looked up, smiled strangely, and asked, "Could it be that I have ketchup on my face?"

"That's not true."

Yawata Kairin simply smiled as she answered the second question.

"That's good."

Bai Qiu was relieved and a relaxed smile appeared on her face.

However, the next second, taking advantage of Hailing's momentary lapse in attention, he suddenly stuffed a French fry into Hailing's slightly open mouth.

Bai Qiu's movements were so sudden that Hachiman Kairin had no time to react.

Her mouth was stuffed with fries, and her eyes widened as she stared at Bai Qiu in astonishment.

She clearly hadn't expected Bai Qiu to do such a thing to her.

"Hailing, you eat too."

Bai Qiu's voice followed, and he looked at Hai Ling with a teasing expression, saying logically, "This is your treat, you can't just watch me eat."

Yawata Kairin put the fries into her mouth and chewed slowly.

She wondered if she should retaliate as well.

However, Bai Qiu asked with some curiosity at this moment:

"Hailin, what do you want to discuss with me?"

After a moment's hesitation, Hachiman Kairin gave Bai Qiu a deep look and had to abandon her previous idea. She then said in a serious tone, "I plan to leave another band."

Bai Qiu opened her mouth, somewhat bewildered.

“Other bands?” he repeated involuntarily. “Do you mean those part-time bands?”

Yawata Kairin nodded seriously.

Bai Qiu breathed a slight sigh of relief.

For a fleeting moment, he thought Hailing was going to withdraw from Mujica, which really startled him. If that happened, Xiangzi's galactic battleship would crash.

"All of them?" Bai Qiu asked tentatively.

"All of them," Hailing answered earnestly.

Bai Qiu paused for a moment, somewhat surprised.

It's worth noting that Hailing plays bass part-time for more than thirty bands.

Leaving so many bands all at once is a really hard decision to make when you think about it.

No wonder Hailing approached him to discuss this matter.

Furthermore, what if this matter is not handled properly, and we lose a reliable bassist like Hailing, and more than thirty bands disband as a result?

Why would someone suddenly make such a decision?

Looking at Hai Ling's face, Bai Qiu asked with some confusion, "Aren't you going to quit being a mercenary?"

Upon hearing Bai Qiu's question, Hachiman Kairin tilted her head back slightly, seemingly in thought, before answering after a moment:

"Mujica is doing quite well now, and also, Mujica has a lot of training time."

“I don’t have enough energy to continue working as a part-time bassist like before, so I think I’ll just stay in Mujica from now on.”

"Finally, it's for everyone's trust."

After listening to Hai Ling's explanation, Bai Qiu nodded thoughtfully.

To be fair, if Hailing wanted Mujica to be her final destination and made such a decision, he would naturally support her wholeheartedly.

"Hailing, what do you need me to do?"

Bai Qiu asked next.

Since Hailing sought his help with this matter, she must need his assistance in some way.

It was a rare occasion for his good friend Hailing to seek his help.

This shows that Hailing trusts him a lot.

If there's anything he can do to help, he will naturally do his best.

But... quitting the band...

Bai Qiu frowned slightly, suddenly feeling a little regretful. As of today, he had no experience leaving a band, only joining one.

"Just come with me to quit those bands."

Yawata Kairin quickly voiced her request, after all, she had already made her plans.

"Is that all?"

Bai Qiu asked in confusion.

"Yes, that's all."

Hachiman Kairin nodded calmly, then added with a hint of teasing in her voice:

"But it won't be a one-day process to get a refund. You'd better be prepared to go to many places with me."

Bai Qiu didn't think much of it and readily agreed with a smile.

"Okay, I'll accompany you."

"With your words, I feel relieved."

Yawata Kairin smiled slightly and responded.

Chapter 365 The Normal Way to Leave the Team

Over the next week, Hakushu and Hachiman Kairin began their plan to leave the team.

He and Hailing visited many live houses in different locations.

Sometimes it happens in the morning, sometimes in the afternoon, but most of the time it happens at night.

This is perhaps because everyone has their own things to do during the day, and these band members obviously only have time and energy at night.

Fortunately, there wasn't a need to run around to more than thirty bands.

This is because Hailing has some part-time band members, and in fact, they haven't had any organized training for a long time, let alone live performances.

The group chat was also quiet and deserted.

This can be interpreted as the point where "no one is coming anymore."

There was no way to arrange a meeting with a band that was practically defunct. Hailing naturally gave up on the idea and simply explained in the group chat that she would no longer be a part-time bassist.

Everyone expressed their understanding, and after exchanging a few polite words, Hailing quietly left the group chat.

Bai Qiu felt that she was a bit tired these past few days.

Overall, however, Hailing's departure from the band went quite smoothly.

After all, we're all normal people. Hailing is just a part-time bassist. If she doesn't want to continue, she should just explain it clearly.

Many bands felt regretful when they heard that Hai Ling was leaving and tried to persuade her to stay.

It is evident that Hailing enjoys a fairly good reputation in the mercenary world.

And so, time has come to this day.

The weather was quite nice a few days ago, but it started raining today.

However, both Hakushu and Hachiman Kairin arrived at the agreed-upon live house on time.

The two put away their umbrellas, their hair and clothes still damp from rushing through the rain, but upon seeing each other, they both smiled faintly.

Bai Qiu wiped the rain off her clothes with a tissue and asked:

"Hailin, if I remember correctly, this is the last one, right?"

"Yes, this is the last one."

Upon hearing this, Hai Ling's expression turned serious, and she said softly, "This band is called Disruption."

Bai Qiu nodded slightly, without saying anything more.

He followed Hailing's steps until they arrived at the outside of a recording studio, where Hailing stopped.

Bai Qiu tilted her head to look at Hai Ling, encouraging her with a relaxed smile:

"Just like with the previous bands, I just need to explain the reasons clearly, and they will understand."
