Can Lixi look at me alone?

Lixi reached out and patted her head.

After washing her fingers, the pink-haired girl returned to Lixi's side and ate something casually. The way she ate, which was completely different from her usual way of savoring food, made Lixi feel a little unfamiliar.

Is it hard to eat?

She felt that although it wasn't particularly delicious, it was still quite good.

But why is Yuzuki being asked to eat so carefully? She has a very small appetite... she only ate a few bites...

"Yue, shall we go have lunch?"

Hailing, who appeared at the right time, glanced at Lixi out of the corner of her eye and saw that he had eaten part of his lunch. Judging that Jieyue might not have finished eating lunch yet, she stood at the back door and began to wait.

Unexpectedly, Hai Ling was so cooperative. The pink-haired idiot was stunned for a moment, then greeted Li Xi and left with Hai Ling without waiting for her reply.

……

"Is that okay?"

Shiina-kun, you're going to bully me even more...

Hai Ling glanced behind her and, noticing that Li Xi wasn't spying on them this time, quietly asked the girl beside her.

The answer is.

"It's okay, Riki-chan... maybe she doesn't like me. If she sees me as a nuisance... she'll be happier to dump me on someone else. Then I won't have any reason to keep bothering her."

Hai Ling looked away at the somewhat... humble? attitude. She really couldn't figure out what the relationship between the two was, but since she had already joined in, she had to try her best to help Jie Yue.

"Does Yuzuki really like Shiina-kun?"

That's a question I've asked before.

Yuzuki winked at her.

"I like it very much, I like it to the extreme."

She likes him so much that she feels like dying if she can't see Riki-chan.

Does she like Shiina Ritsuki, or the heart and love that Shiina Ritsuki never returned to her?

Yuzuki doesn't care about these things. She just needs to help Riki-chan with the band's relationships, cook for Riki-chan, and take care of her daily life. If she could, she would be willing to start with every little thing and spend her whole life with Riki-chan.

But Lixi knew nothing about any of this, not even a little bit.

We're both girls, wouldn't confessing to Riki-chan scare her?

She knew that this was the rule of the world.

Hai Ling squeezed her soft, smooth hand and told her to buy whatever she wanted.

As the girl finished paying and was about to head back to the classroom with her bread, she felt something being stuffed into her pocket. A carton of chocolate milk was being stuffed into her other pocket by Yuzuki.

"This is Hailing's reward."

Jieyue smiled at her, while Lixi had a dark expression on her face all afternoon.

Even with her dark face, Li Xi is still so cute...

Li Xi-chan is so jealous of Hai Ling and me going out to eat... So cute!

"I'm sorry, Riki-chan... I'll spend the whole afternoon with you today~"

The drummer, feeling a bit better, poked her head.

"No need, just remember to practice with me after school."

Okay, practice~

"Okay, Riki-chan..."

Is it right to use Hai Ling?

Yuzuki didn't know.

Maybe it's right, maybe it's wrong, but Hailing didn't say anything... right...?

Give me some votes! Give me some votes!

Volume 1 Crychic!!!: Chapter 46 Attacking Teacher Da Xiang

While contemplating whether to go home and grab the keyboard, Yuzuki followed Riki down the street.

The drummer suddenly asked a question out of the blue.

"Yuzuki, which high school are you planning to go to?"

high school?

So I'm a middle school student now...

Yuzuki blinked her clear eyes and gave Riki a gentle smile.

"I don't know yet, does Riki-chan have any plans?"

Li Xi paused slightly in her steps.

"I'll probably choose a good school for further education..."

But Yuzuki, are you really sure you can pass the entrance exam?

Lixi didn't ask the question; she felt it was somewhat inappropriate. After all, she knew about Jieyue's physical condition... It was no different from making fun of someone else's physical defects.

"Wow, that's amazing. As expected of Riki-chan."

Unlike usual, Yuzuki walked into the practice room carrying a lunchbox. Today, it wasn't them who arrived first, but Akari.

"Little Juzuki! And Little Lixi... Good evening!"

Somewhat surprised that the lantern had taken the initiative to greet her and Yuzuki, Riki nodded to encourage her courage.

"Good evening, lights."

Good evening, little lamp~

Yuzuki patted her head.

Lixi had gotten somewhat used to this scene; the popularity of the guy next to her was practically squared compared to her own. Therefore, it was normal for him to be liked by Deng…

Wait a moment...

It seems like nobody dislikes Yuzuki...

Yeah, it's just me who doesn't like it.

"Konpeito... I brought it. Yuzuki can use it to make a wish..."

What are they wishing for? What are these two talking about...?

Lixi, who was regaining her rhythm by waving her drumsticks a couple of times, ignored their pretend play.

Somewhat helpless, Yuzuki hadn't expected her lie to last so long, so she had no choice but to take the candy jar and sit down with her.

What a... easily fooled little lamp.

Just like yesterday, I made a wish on a piece of candy.

"I hope Xiaodeng can sing out loud and boldly!"

It was Xiangzi, who came rushing over after smelling the odor, that made Jieyue a little annoyed.

Almost unable to suppress her smile, Yuzuki and Deng together explained Yuzuki's lie from yesterday to her and Sumu.

Xiangzi and Su Shi immediately understood what Jieyue meant. They exchanged a glance; Su Shi saw confirmation, while Xiangzi saw a plea.

Their relationship has always been like this.

It has always been...

It's not equal.

"I want to hear Little Lamp sing!"

They made the same wish, but one of them did it to obey the other…

But what does it matter? Just like Yuzuki likes Riki, Suze likes Crychic.

Shoko Toyokawa, the leader of Crychic, is someone who listens to everything. Yuzuki Chika, the glue that holds Crychic together, constantly smoothing and connecting everyone's relationships.

I love the three little members of the Crychic family…

Su Shi smiled gently, just as gently as Jie Yue.

She felt joy, ease... and happiness at Crychic.

She wanted to do her best to protect the integrity of the crystal, just like Yuzuki... to be a less powerful adhesive.

But... she's not as good as Yuzuki.

They lack Yuzuki's gentle personality, can't match her willingness to give to others, and certainly can't match Yuzuki's keyboard talent...

Su Shi hoped that she could be needed in Crychic, instead of being Xiangzi's follower as she is now.

She felt that her purpose should be to bring everyone in the band together, but... no one needed her at all.

But this is good too... if one day Yuzuki needs me...

"Soyo? Time to eat."

Yuzuki patted her on the shoulder, gesturing for her to swallow the stardust carrying her wishes.

"Ok!"

The taste was just as Yuzuki had described it—sweet and delicious.

.

After seeing that everyone had eaten the candy with their wishes, Yuzuki connected the microphone she used for practice to the speakers.

"Keep going, little lamp! The stars in the sky will help you."

Xiangzi interjected.

"That's right, that's right, we're all here too."

Yuzuki pouted, barely managing not to push Shoko away. After handing the bass and guitar tabs to Soyo and Komu, she waited for them to prepare for practice.

"Hey! Didn't Yuzuki bring her keyboard?"

Xiangzi finally realized that there was no keyboard lady missing here.

"Yeah, I didn't bring it... so it's still at home. But Xiaoxiang trusts my keyboard, right...? So how about I take a break today~"

If you dare disagree, I'll just start typing nonsense on your keyboard.

The smiling pink-haired girl felt a tap on her head.

Looking back, someone struck me twice more at just the right moment.

"Who's playing a trick on me! Honestly..."

It wasn't Xiao Mu; Li Xi-chan wouldn't be that gentle. It was probably Soyo, and there's definitely that damned Xiao Xiang.

Unable to suppress her laughter, Su Shi pulled up her wrist to apologize.

"I'm so sorry~ It's all because Yuzuki is too cute, I couldn't resist..."

Fine, I forgive you.

After a brief eye contact with those beautiful, icy blue eyes, Yuzuki patted her bass guitar urgency on.

"Soyo, hurry up and practice, honestly..."

Li Xi's voice suddenly appeared behind Jie Yue, causing her body to tremble slightly with excitement.

"Yuzuki is right, Soyo, hurry up and practice. And Akari, get into the zone quickly too."

After familiarizing herself with the sheet music, Mu, who didn't need to worry, began to wait.

……

There's good news and bad news.
