Shimokitazawa is not a region, but a train station.

This connects the way out and the way in.

Moving forward from here leads to the glitz and glamour of Tokyo, a city where money flows in every day; leaving from here leads to a life unchanged for decades, where the distant smoke rises from the fields.

Here, however, are dilapidated old theaters and constantly opening modern mobile phone shops.

Hailing walks on the road.

Watching the gradual change.

Once upon a time, the dilapidated stage plays that now stand before us were the mainstream, while cinemas were the real challengers.

Nowadays, fewer and fewer people go to see stage plays. They have gradually become something unattainable, something that is too profound for most people to understand.

At that time, expensive movie theaters were already everywhere.

even.

I watched as the ivy climbed up the movie theater sign.

The livehouse over there, however, was brand new.

A new generation replaces the old.

Will I be replaced too?

If, if I really did that?

Hailing thought of it.

But what should I do?

It's been a week, and not a single person has come to be the lead singer.

I've always believed that as long as everyone sees the potential of my band, we'll definitely succeed.

but.

Hailing stood against the entrance of STARRY, too afraid to go in.

"Hmm?" Hailing suddenly looked into the distance.

A green-haired girl slowly walked over, her back to the sunlight.

Poker face.

However, Hailing understood that the other party was not happy.

For no particular reason, Ruoye Mu was always unhappy when she wasn't by Xiangzi's side.

Hailing still remembers the last time she and Xiangzi took Xiaomu home.

The closer Xiao Mu got to her home, the less she talked, no matter how much Xiangzi teased her.

His steps grew smaller and smaller, while the part of Xiangzi he was holding in his hand grew larger and larger.

do not know why.

Hailing felt like a child being sent to kindergarten.

Especially when Xiao Mu got home, she turned around and said, "See you tomorrow."

It's like reminding your own mother to come pick you up little by little! As fast as possible.

. . . . . .

Although I don't understand why, perhaps Wakaba Mutsu doesn't like her home.

Hailing guessed.

However, the most outrageous thing right now is probably...

Why didn't the other party come with Xiangzi?

"Xiang arrived first, without waiting for me," Ruoye Mu said, her cold words seemingly devoid of any feeling.

However, the tightly gripped hem of clothing did not appear to be so calm.

After all, Xiang wasn't waiting for him.

Don't you want yourself anymore?

. . . . . .

While attending an acting class, I watched the time, counting down second by second.

It was 367 seconds before the end of get out of class when Xiangzi sent a text message saying that she had gone ahead and that he should come over after class.

. . . . . .

Xiang didn't wait for him.

That moment.

I glanced instinctively at the doorway, but there was no familiar face.

Her breathing was labored, and the teacher next to her asked if she was alright.

Every time, with a few minutes left before get out of class ended, Xiangzi would wait for him downstairs, wait for him to look over, then turn back to wave, make faces, and chuckle.

I always thought it would always be like this.

However, I didn't see it for a moment.

If only Ye Mucai could remember, it had always been like this in the past, and he had always been all alone.

A person, without saying a word, returns home.

I don't have to speak all day, it's very relaxing.

Because nobody wants to listen to what you have to say.

Nobody cares what it's like to watch other people's performances. You don't understand the feeling of those performances; you don't comprehend it. You're just imagining things from watching others.

The teacher's portrayal of someone who loves but cannot have is like a little dog on the roadside, wanting to eat the sausage in its own hand, then lying down and barking, before looking at the sausage it has finished eating and whimpering sadly.

Nobody wants to watch their own performance, the little dog they think they are.

It can even bark by itself.

Nobody wants to hear it.

My mother would only say that I need to understand the teacher, how could I say that the teacher is like a dog!

Do you even realize how amazing the teacher your mom found for you is?! What would the teacher think if they heard that?

Because if you say it, you're wrong.

So, there's no need to say more.

You don't need to tell anyone.

until.

"By the way, Xiao Mu never tells me what the teacher looks like in class."

"Hey, are you putting on a show for me?"

"Wow, it's kind of cute, like a puppy."

It's easy to have someone willing to listen to you, but it's hard to actually say what you're saying.

He uttered each little word slowly, tentatively in a low voice, until he told the story every day, and Xiangzi laughed heartily.

You think this will last forever.

Until she tells you she has something to do and can't come.

You suddenly realize that these past few months have been every single moment you can remember in your entire life of over a decade.

Looking at Wakaba Mutsuka by the window, the teacher felt inexplicably sad, as if the world was lonely and no longer loved her.

The teacher didn't know why, but just looking at the girl's back, that's what she felt.

When get out of class ended at some unknown time, the other person ran away.

The teacher looked at his reflection in the window.

I saw those eyes reflected in the window.

. . . . . .

Ruoye Muku looked at Hailing beside her, wanting to slip away and go inside to find Xiangzi.

However, the other party grabbed her.

Wakaba Mutsu stared at himself.

If the only way to get through this was to kill himself, Wakaba Mutsumi might even consider it.

Hailing realized this.

but.

There was a reason why I held Xiao Mu back.

"I've made up my mind."

"Ok?"

"I still want to try. Even if a new bassist does manage to steal the spot, I still want to try. At least, MUJICA shouldn't stop here, right? If it really happens... no, it won't happen, it definitely won't, so..."

“He Xiang said.” Ruoye Mu looked at the other person.

Okay, I understand. So, why are you stopping me?

Go tell Xiang not to stop me here!

"I... I want to act first and ask questions later. I'm afraid that when I see Xiangzi, I won't be able to say it. I can't bear to."

"..."

Hailing said.

Not only that.

He even told Wakaba Mutsu that it was also to alleviate his guilt and increase his insurance coverage.

Even if Xiangzi was really angry.

If Ye Mu had known about it, she wouldn't have taken the blame alone.

Just like Xiao Mu told herself.

Ruo Ye Mu didn't speak, but looked at Hai Ling, then pulled her leg back and looked at the other person.

Hailing took out her phone and posted it on Twitter.

"I'm leaving the band MUJICA. Thank you for your support."

Looking at the message that was sent, it was clearly fake.

However, Hailing always felt a pain in her heart.

"Snapped!"

The door to the rehearsal room downstairs was opened.

A girl rushed out, stepped on the steps and cried out involuntarily, then fell to the ground.

"Xiangzi?"

"Xiang!"

"Hailin, Xiaomu, why are you two like this?" The girl lying on the ground looked at the two guys who rushed over and hugged her in an instant, and then pulled Hailing with her hand.

"Please don't leave the group, okay? Don't worry, someone will definitely become the lead singer! Someone definitely will! So, so please don't leave the group, okay! Unnie!"

"Please don't leave the team!"

"Hai Ling!"

"Didn't we agree that we're a community with a shared future? Why?"

"Xiangzi, let me explain!" Hailing was just about to say something.

Just found out.
