What kind of chat group is this?!

Witnessing the dead come back to life would certainly be hard for Mu to accept.

"Let's bring Mu in first. Also, what are you doing here?"

"It's... Xiangzi, the boy who revived Ruihui... You should have his contact information, right? I'd like to meet him to express my gratitude."

"Yes, but he's not here right now. He'll probably be back tonight. I still need to clean out his room."

Her words were very cold, and she even seemed to dislike seeing the man in front of her. If her mother hadn't been there, she would have kicked him out immediately.

Toyokawa Shoko had a lot of complaints about her father, Toyokawa Seikao. If Lin Mo hadn't reminded her, she wouldn't have realized that her father spent more money on alcohol than she earned.

While his own band's collapse certainly had its own issues, the problem stemmed more from his unfortunate father.

Toyokawa Shoko's parents quickly realized that it was "come back," not "come over."

The two words have completely different meanings, meaning that this man is now living in the Toyokawa family home.

"Okay...okay."

A subtle silence fell between Toyokawa Kiyoko and Toyokawa Shoko, a silence that was not broken until Toyokawa Mizuho appeared.

"Mu is fine, she'll wake up soon. When did Mr. Lin move in?"

As a parent, Mizuho Toyokawa felt it was necessary to ask some questions to clarify things.

It would have been better if this matter hadn't been brought up, because once it was, Toyokawa Shoko's tone turned even colder.

She seriously suspected that if she hadn't asked, this guy would have continued to spend the night in the park.

"If I hadn't asked him today, that guy would probably have spent the night in the park again when he got back."

Upon hearing her daughter's words, Toyokawa Mizuho couldn't help but ask a question mark.

She couldn't understand why a being capable of bringing the dead back to life would live in a park.

While Toyokawa Shoko chatted with her parents, Lin Mo returned to his own world.

Before he left, he sealed DIO and Father Pucci in a bottle he bought at random and brought it back with him.

He walked down the street, watching the cars come and go, aimlessly wandering around for a while before turning around and entering a shop called RiNG.

This is a small livehouse that mainly rents out practice spaces, live stages, and musical instruments. There is also a coffee shop in the lobby reception area.

Currently, most of our clients are teenage girls in bands from several nearby schools.

He came here for only one purpose: to absorb some youthful energy.

There were plenty of empty seats, so Lin Mo found a window seat and sat down.

"A rare moment of peace and quiet..."

He sighed, then let out a sigh.

"Welcome! How can I help you?"

The head waiter walked up to him and interrupted Lin Mo's daze with a soft question.

Lin Mo glanced at the waiter. Although he saw that the waiter's nameplate read "Shinji Rinko," he still mentally regarded the head waiter as a human-eared version of Naritaji.

"Thank you for your recommendation. I don't have any particular preference or dislike. The only thing I have to say is that I don't want to drink hot drinks on a hot day."

Chapter 24 Lin Mo, you schemed against me!

Before long, an iced Americano was served. Lin Mo stared quietly out the window, the afterglow of the sunlight shining through the glass onto her.

He ordered his coffee, then realized he had no cash, so he sent a message and waited for Toyokawa Shoko's "rescue."

He inadvertently caught sight of a brown-haired high school girl outside the glass window; the girl's light blue eyes met his gaze.

I don't know why, but the other person exudes an amazing widow vibe, a little resentful, a little starved for love, and a very gentle feeling.

No... this feeling can no longer be described as that of a simple widow; it should be described as that of a widow who lost her child early and then her husband.

Of course, his 24k gold-plated eyes could see that this girl simply had this kind of temperament, rather than having actually experienced these things.

Oh, it's Nagasaki who passed away... no, it's Nagasaki Motoyo, that high school widow who could say "One-gai".

After exchanging glances with Lin Mo, Nagasaki Motoyo had a strange feeling, so she walked in, even though she hadn't planned to enter RiNG.

Under normal circumstances, Nagasaki Motoyo would never have acted this way because of a single glance, but she could sense that one glance had attracted her.

Perhaps it's because like attracts like; she felt that she and he might be destined for each other, so even just having a few words together would be nice.

Shiina Riki, who was behind the bar, watched as her old teammate walked in, then stared straight at the boy sitting by the glass window.

"what?"

She couldn't understand the situation, so she stared straight at that spot.

Lin Mo was also unable to understand the current situation.

He had only one thought on his mind: if he made eye contact, he would fight.

It's just a pity that he doesn't have any cards on him right now.

Nagasaki Su Shi Mai II Lin Er 1 Shan Ling Ba Er walked over with relatively elegant steps.

Lin Mo sensed that a samurai duel was about to begin; he could see the unwavering determination in Nagasaki Motoyo's eyes.

He took a sip of coffee, and Stand The World and Stand Zaun Warrior both appeared.

"Honey, may I sit across from you and chat for a while?"

Nagasaki Motoyo felt she had been a bit rash, but she knew she would regret it if she didn't communicate with the other party now.

"of course can."

Although he didn't know what the girl in front of him was thinking, he was naturally happy to have someone come to cheer him up.

Toyokawa Shoko will be coming over to pay soon. If he can chat with Nagasaki Motoyo a little longer, he might be able to see "Onegai" soon.

He began, "Madam, shall we exchange names? Or perhaps we could simply chat as if we've met someone with similar interests on the street?"

Lin Mo's voice was quite gentle, sounding like the first melting of snow, or like soft spring rain and gentle breeze.

Nagasaki Motoyo didn't think for long before giving her answer: "Let's exchange names."

She has absolutely no habit of spontaneously conversing with just anyone; in fact, she's quite introverted.

However, the attraction of the boy in front of her had exceeded the limits of her rational control.

"My name is Nagasaki Motoyo, I am sixteen years old, and I am a first-year high school student at Moon Forest Girls Ichiji Motoyo Academy."

"I'm Lin Mo, nineteen years old, a working professional. What would you like to talk about?"

Nagasaki Motoyo ordered a coffee and said, "In that glance I made just now, I noticed a hint of sorrow and confusion in your eyes."

Lin Mo did not deny it. He said, "Don't you also have something on your mind between your brows?"

Nagasaki Suyo was silent.

She seemed to have lost her composure, asking such inappropriate questions right off the bat. She should have maintained a more respectful distance.

"Feel sorry..."

She apologized, but he stopped her.

“Don’t worry about it, Nagasaki,” Lin Mo said. “Some words are hard to say to people you know too well, but to strangers, it’s just a story of a chance encounter. And my worries have already vanished when you’re about to talk to me.”

"Eh?"

Nagasaki Motoyo was flattered by the unexpected words. Lin Mo continued, "Humans are social animals and need a certain social routine. I feel extremely lonely here, as if I have been abandoned by the world. Your arrival has brought some warmth to this cold afterglow."

Shiina Tatsuki, who was observing his old teammate from a distance, frowned upon hearing these words. How could this person be like the legendary gigolo?

Could this guy be lying to Su Shi because he doesn't have money to pay his bills, so that Su Shi will pay for him?

"You are ridiculous."

Nagasaki Motoyo's ears turned slightly red; the other person's relatively straightforward language made her feel a little embarrassed.

This is a gentleman.

Nagasaki Motoyo made this judgment.

With Lin Mo's speech preceding hers, Nagasaki Motoyo also gained courage.

She said softly, "In that case, I was right. You and I both long for companionship. But I'm troubled because my home is shattered and can no longer be reunited."

"Of all the things in the world, the past can be the most painful," Lin Mo said. "If you are willing, I am willing to be your confidant and listen to the lamentations in your heart."

"It's not even a lament..."

Nagasaki Motoyo took a deep breath, biting her lip lightly, unsure how to begin talking about the Crychic bombing incident.

Finally, she spoke up: "I have a friend..."

The classic line is "I have a friend".

Lin Mo had no interest in making sarcastic remarks at the moment; he listened intently to Nagasaki Motoyo's story.

As the story unfolds, the friend that Nagasaki Motoyo refers to gradually becomes Nagasaki Motoyo herself.

From elementary school to high school, all the big and small things I experienced, as well as my inner loneliness, longing for companionship, loss, sadness, fear, and the feeling of not fitting in with the people around me when I was in school, were all poured out at this moment.

During the storytelling, Lin Mo, sitting opposite Su Shi, softly echoed, agreed, and comforted her.

All kinds of emotions were embraced and received, and the emotional feedback was warm and caring.

Nagasaki Motoyo couldn't understand why the person in front of her would show such warm care to a stranger.

But at this moment, it doesn't matter anymore.

After recounting everything, Nagasaki Motoyo, whose heart had been heavy, suddenly felt relieved, but at the same time, a sense of greed began to creep into her heart.

Hypothesis.

It's just a hypothetical situation; if the other person were a family member, I wouldn't feel lonely.

As she spoke, she unconsciously gripped the coffee cup tightly with her hand, never letting go, as if the cup would shatter like a cricket if she did.

"The pain in your heart will not be erased by the passage of time; it will only take root more firmly in your heart, like a tree that grows stronger. I hope that my listening can loosen the thorns in your heart."

Then, Lin Mo spoke up: "Throughout the entire story, none of you were at fault."

"But what I'm curious about is... you know that your keyboardist is in trouble, and the surname Toyokawa is quite famous in Tokyo. At the slightest hint of trouble, information about it will be all over the news and newspapers. Didn't any of you check it online?"

Nagasaki Suze slowly uttered a question mark. Lu Yiqi Yin Er put the silk in her hand. Oh... why didn't she look it up herself?

I can only say that back in my third year of junior high, I would never have thought about checking the news.

Just as Nagasaki Motoyo was about to say something, she saw a figure she had been looking for for a long time through the glass window.

Shoko Toyokawa walked into RiNG and her breath caught in her throat when she saw Tatsuki Shiina behind the bar and Motoyo Nagasaki sitting opposite Lin Mo.

Buhou! I've fallen for their trap!

"Excuse me, I'll be right back." Nagasaki Motoyo moved like a rabbit, grabbing Toyokawa Shoko's hand: "Shoko!"

"Ah...um..."

Xiangzi was instantly numb, not knowing what to say, and could only stand there like a fool.

Shoko Toyokawa, arrest him with dignity!

——To be continued

Chapter 25 This is practically my godfather (Please add to your favorites!)

The chat group's live stream suddenly started, and Toyokawa Shoko's bewildered expression appeared on the chat group's interface.

[Not a chuunibyou cook]: Is this Xiangzi? The one holding Xiangzi's hand is...

[Worldline Destroyer]: The brown-haired one is called Nagasaki Motoyo, and the black-haired girl with a beauty mark on her face wearing a waitress uniform is Shiina Tatsuki. Both of them are Toyokawa Shoko's old teammates.

[AAA Rin's Gemstone Wholesale]: Based on my understanding of Xiangzi, it's absolutely impossible for her to contact two people at once, so what happened?

[Worldline Destroyer]: It's when I'm drinking coffee and realize I don't have any money on me, so I call him to come and rescue me.

[AAA Rin's Gemstone Wholesale]: Shouldn't you pay first and then be served the food?

[Worldline Destroyer]: This is the kind where you order first and pay later.

【Not in prison 0721】: Poor Xiangzi met the wrong person.

[Worldline Destroyer]: I think so too.

【Not in prison 0721】: I'm talking about you.
