"...Let's call it a reconciliation, I suppose. Although we said those things and it was a bit awkward when we met, she remembers and likes the time we spent in the band, and that's enough," Su Shi said softly.

"That's good!" Ai Yin nodded in satisfaction.

"Aiyin, have you ever been told that you're always meddling in other people's business?" Su Shi asked casually.

Aine smiled and said, "No. I won't interfere in other people's affairs unless they are people I care about. Don't think of me as some kind of great or sacred person."

“Nobody thought that way,” Su Shi added.

"That would be perfect."

Lixi didn't interrupt. She thought Aine was amazing, but there was no point in bringing it up again.

“Su Shi,” Li Xi changed the subject.

"what?"

"Here, take this."

Lixi placed several sheets of paper on the table.

Sheet music... This is... Su Shi's expression changed slightly. She saw the name on the sheet music—"Walking with the Azure Sky." Clearly, it was Li Xi and Ai Yin's band... It was a piece by MyGO.

Su Shi narrowed her eyes: "What do you mean by that?"

"Means nothing."

Yu Guangzhong's Ai Yin looked surprised.

That must be Li Xi's arbitrary act.

"If it doesn't mean anything, why did you give it to me?"

“You can play it, or you can burn it,” Lixi whispered.

“I don’t play. I have no intention of joining your band.”

"You can play it without joining, or burn it if you don't want it."

Su Shi picked up the sheet music: "I don't want it. Don't give me this confusing stuff."

She tried to shove it back to Lixi, but Lixi immediately took a few steps back, showing no intention of taking it.

She then turned to Aine, who nonchalantly looked out at the scenery, seemingly oblivious to everything that had just happened.

The two of them gripped the paper tightly.

"The decision is yours," Li Xi said.

""

"Or will you play 'Spring Shadow'?"

Su Shi took a breath: "Absolutely not!"

I can't play it.

Absolutely not.

Chapter 36 Compared to C-Team, it's still our GO-Team...

After chatting for a while, Su Shi picked up her bag and prepared to leave.

As for the sheet music for "Walking with the Blue Sky," she hesitated for a moment but still accepted it. Hearing Ai Yin say that it was written by Li Xi truly surprised and impressed her.

But she can't play it.

At least Su Shi made this decision with a resolute expression.

Aiyin also doesn't plan to stay here any longer. After returning, she still has to practice the piano and do her homework. Thinking about it this way, her daily life is quite fulfilling.

Lixi will have to continue working here.

“rikki”.

"What are you doing?" Lixi replied casually as she washed the cup.

"If you give Soyorin the sheet music now, will she be able to play it?" Aine asked curiously.

The fact that Su Shi was coming to see them meant that her chances of joining MyGO were pretty good, but Aine still felt that she should wait a few more days.

"It can be played."

Lixi put the cup down: "She's the type who, even if she's not interested, will still do it properly."

"I see, so we do have a tacit understanding after all..." Aine nodded nonchalantly.

"Ah, now that you mention it, Soyorin does seem to have a hard time saying no to people."

"Should I call it pandering? I don't quite understand, but... you see, the personality she's showing now is quite different from how she usually appears, isn't it?"

As for this, Aine already knew about it thoroughly during her first playthrough.

Ai said, "That must be a sign that they trust us!"

"It may just be something we have no other choice."

"Since we've already been seen, we might as well stop pretending—that's the feeling?"

"Ah."

Li Xi said softly, "When she's at Crychic, she doesn't show any disgust or annoyance."

Aine didn't take it to heart: "People have many facets, and I sometimes act very differently too."

"I know, but... if you can't even show your true self, then the so-called community of shared destiny will eventually collapse because of something else. Even if that guy does nothing."

However, this conclusion is only drawn by working backward from the result.

Li Xi changed the subject: "So, does that mean I've won over Su Shi?"

"Hmm... I guess so?"

But Su Shi kept being stubborn.

When will it soften?

"I'm really curious about what you guys talked about when you met that guy."

Ai Yin only told Li Xi the general process; she didn't mention the details, including Su Shi's outburst and angry words, or her subsequent crying. This made Li Xi quite curious.

Ai Yin just gave an awkward smile: "Let's not ask about that. If Soyorin finds out, I'll definitely be in trouble."

"Is that so? Then forget it. I don't want to dig into it anyway."

Li Xi looked serious.

"The next one will be the lamp, right?"

"That's not right."

Li Xi was displeased: "Huh? Why isn't it a lamp?"

Ai Yin put her hands on her hips and said smugly, "Don't worry about Riki! I have my own way. Anyway, Soyorin is still being difficult and can't officially join the band for the time being. I want to invite another guitarist to join the band first."

Another guitarist?

Is that the girl named Kaname Rakuna?

Why not bring the lights in first? The lead singer is clearly the most important person.

Li Xi was a little anxious, but so far Ai Yin had done a good job.

Even Su Shi, who was determined to revive Crychic, now has a chance to join the team. She herself can't play the role of recruiting people, so she can only take a deep breath.

"Alright, it's up to you."

Ai Yin patted her chest: "Mmm, leave it to me!"

"...If you need anything, feel free to call me, although I can't guarantee I'll be of any use."

"The two sentences you said give off such a contradictory feeling."

The first sentence gave people a sense of reliability, but the second sentence caused the momentum to collapse completely.

Li Xi avoided eye contact: "No, not really."

I was just telling the truth, she thought.

Aine shook her head: "Riki helped me too. Without you, I probably wouldn't have been able to get through this. You always say you're not good at comforting people, but actually, just chatting with others and sharing their attention is enough."

"is it?"

"Of course. And Riki giving Soyorin the sheet music was quite unexpected. I think some things can only be done by those of you who went through the Crychic era together—"

Ai Yin smiled and said, "--It's something I, someone who hasn't shared the same experience, can't do."

Why would I say something like that?

It must be because of jealousy.

Aine was absentmindedly thinking about how to revive MyGO, but in doing so, she learned more about Crychic and became more aware of its influence on Akari, Souse, and Riki.

Especially Su Shi. The fact that she acted so sad shows just how much she loves Crychic.

It's good that she can openly say she wants to revive Crychic, so she doesn't have to step on any landmines.

But I still felt a little uneasy.

It's just a little bit.

Lixi didn't know what to say: "That's not true."

"I also want to rest for a few days and think about my future plans."

"...so."

Ai-yin casually remarked, "Riki, your brow is furrowed."

“—Compared to Crychic,” Li Xi said hesitantly.

"Ok?"

Lixi remained silent for a long time before finally finishing his sentence: "MyGO suits me better than Crychic."

This is probably meant to comfort me. Although I'm still as clumsy as ever.

"It's clearly not even formed yet?" Aine laughed.

"I'm being long-winded. I'm serious, because in the past I could see the whole picture from the very beginning."

"You can see the whole thing at a glance?" Ai Yin tilted her head. "What do you mean?"

"It means that you can only swing the same drumsticks as yesterday."

"...Riki, have you become eccentric like Tomorin?" Aine asked in surprise.

“That’s not true. If you can’t understand, that’s fine. I just want every time I swing my drumstick, I’m striking a different tomorrow—I don’t want things to be taken for granted, I don’t want things to stay the same.”

Ai Yin always felt that Li Xi was surprisingly insecure about himself.

But she wouldn't just blurt it out without thinking; confidence isn't something that can be cultivated by simply saying a few words. She couldn't even say that she had complete confidence.

"Let's cheer each other on!" Ai Yin said with a smile.

Lixi nodded: "Mm."

After saying goodbye to Lixi, Aiyin left RiNG.

She was about to go straight home when she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye.

"soyorin?"

Su Shi leaned against the wall, gazing at the passing vehicles.

"Didn't you go home?" Ai Yin asked.

“I didn’t say I was going home.”

"So where are you now?"

Su Shi hesitated, then started walking slowly, as if inviting her to follow.

Ai Yin thought that he probably still had something to say, so she followed him and walked side by side.

Suddenly, she noticed a strange color on Su Shi's hair, as if something had gotten on it. Although she couldn't see what it was, Aine still reached out her hand without hesitation.

Just as her fingertips were about to touch her hair, Su Shi grabbed her hand nervously.
