“Because of that song…” Just as Izayoi was about to continue explaining, she suddenly looked startled, her eyes instantly turning into beady ones as she followed the newly appeared figure.

A man pushed open the wooden door and walked in, saying in a muffled voice, "Good evening~"

"Good evening~~~" Jing Qinrencai replied stiffly.

"If you're too noisy at night, the neighbors will start yelling at you again," the man warned.

"What, are you going out now?" Momoka Kawara asked, turning around.

But before receiving a reply, the other party closed the door again.

"What...what was that just now..." Jingqin Rencai asked in a trembling voice.

"Who was that just now...?"

"It's my boyfriend! It's my boyfriend, right!?" She leaned forward, her face filled with disbelief, her gaze shifting back and forth between the closed door and Momoka Kawaharaki. "Living together... living together is too early...!"

Momoka Kawahara gave her a flick on the forehead, ruthlessly interrupting, "Be—Calm—Down!"

"It's my roommate, we share an apartment!"

"How could I possibly rent such a big house by myself!"

Jing Qinrencai was thrown backward, falling over along with the high stool, but she immediately got up and continued to press for details: "But! Wasn't that a man just now?!"

"Yeah! But his girlfriend is a guy, so he'll probably be staying at his boyfriend's house next!" Momoka Kawara explained nonchalantly.

"Boyfriend?" Jingqin Rencai looked puzzled, as if she'd encountered a problem. After a few seconds, she tapped her left palm with her right, as if suddenly realizing something. Then...

"How terrifying! Tokyo is so terrifying!!"

She covered her eyes, looking utterly terrified, pulled up the hood of her sweatshirt, and bounced to the sofa to lie down.

Sakurakoji Saiya showed a relieved expression and dropped his disguise. Although the possibility was slim, he really couldn't stand it if the other person found out his gender and then fell in love with him.

“Of course,” Momoka Kawara said with an expression that seemed to say, ‘Isn’t that obvious?’ Then she added, “Since we live in different rooms, our schedules are different, so we rarely see each other.”

“But…” Jingqin Rencai still couldn’t accept it.

"By the way, you should really consider sharing an apartment, right? If you're alone, you'll find yourself busy with part-time jobs and such without even realizing it." Momoka Kawara put her guitar against the wall and went back to the kitchen.

How much is the rent?

"fifty thousand……"

"Are you working?"

"We will play, but it's not finalized yet..."

"Is everything alright? Like this?"

“I have savings, and I also took some money with me when I left home.”

"What? It's easy. Then do whatever you like. Here, as long as you have money, you can do anything..."

"What do you know about me based on that alone?!"

"?" Kawahara Momoka finished wiping the dishes and turned around in confusion.

"Please don't try to make things easy..."

"Hey! STOP!" Just as she was about to activate the gravity field again, Sakurakoji interrupted loudly.

The two were startled and turned to look at him simultaneously, wondering why he, who had been pretending to be dead for so long, would suddenly speak.

Sakurakoji had no choice but to intervene. If he didn't stop it, another extreme chase would be staged, and he didn't want to stay up all night to do that.

“Ms. Momoka, I think what you just said was a bit arbitrary. Even if Ms. Nina has some savings, it doesn’t mean she has an easy life, does it?” Sakurakoji Sai looked at Kawaragi Momoka. “Coming to Tokyo alone at this age takes a lot of courage, doesn’t it?”

There was no way he could persuade the other person. To ease the situation, the only option was to get the more reasonable person to back down, a situation commonly known as bullying the honest person.

"Ah, ah, that's true. After all, it's impossible for someone who dropped out of high school to come here alone." Kawara Momoka realized that she seemed to have said something wrong and looked back at Iori Nina. "I'm sorry, Nina, I was too harsh just now."

"No, no..." Jingqin Rencai realized that she had been a bit too irritable just now, and her mood dropped.

"So, what does Nina-san want to do in the future?" Sakurakoji asked, taking over from Kawara Momoka, as she steered the conversation forward.

There's nothing I want to do.

"?" Momoka Kawahara asked, puzzled, "Isn't there anything you want to do?"

"I didn't come here because I wanted to do anything specific, it's just that everywhere..."

"It's just that there's nowhere for me to go, because I don't want to admit defeat, I don't want to admit that I was wrong." Sakurakoji Saito chimed in, smiling at the two who were looking over, his eyes meeting Ii Serina's, "Right?"

“…Yes, speaking of which, I did talk to Mr. Cai Cai about it.” Jingqin Rencai nodded. “It wasn’t my fault, but it made it seem like I was the one who did something wrong. I don’t want to lose to that kind of atmosphere.”

"I see. Then I'll say it again, I'm sorry." Based on these words alone, Momoka Kawahara seemed to understand and apologized again.

Faced with the two silent individuals, Sakurakoji, while acting as a mediator, thought of that woman. If she were here, she would probably be playing this role.

That's really impressive, 486-kun.

Come quick! I can't hold on any longer!

"By the way, why did Ms. Momoka return to Asahikawa? Did the band disband? I really love Ms. Momoka's songs." Sakurakoji asked a new question with a regretful tone.

"Well, um, it's just a common argument that ends badly." Kawara Momoka said with a hint of melancholy.

"Does 'arguing' refer to Diamond Star?" Ishigami Renna couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, when we disbanded, we discussed who should keep that song, because the other members said they would continue to make music."

"So you gave it away?" Jingqinrencai added.

"Anyway, I can just write new good songs." Momoka Kawahara's pretty profile seemed unconcerned, but she immediately contradicted herself, giving a wry smile, "That's what I thought back then..."

That's what I thought back then, but reality turned out to be much more complicated, and now I'm left with nothing but going back to my hometown... Haji Xiang, you rascal...

"Pfft." Jingqin Rencai couldn't help but laugh.

"What?" Momoka Kawara frowned unhappily.

"Isn't he just a nice guy?" Izare Nina buried her face in her arms and said in a muffled voice, "But I think he's really cool!"

"I also think Momoka looks really cool!" Sakurakoji agreed.

"What!?" When the two of them said that, two blushes rose on Kawara Momoka's handsome and beautiful face, and then she puffed out her cheeks slightly and let out a dissatisfied snort.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!!" x2

The two rubbed their cheeks, which had been ravaged by the attack, and glared at her angrily, but were met only with a gesture of crossing their arms and turning their heads away, implying that she deserved it.

"Well, let's talk about it tomorrow. Let's go to sleep first tonight," Sakurakoji Sai suggested.

"That's true, it's so late, I'll go get you some bedding."

After glancing at the time, Momoka Kawaharaki snapped out of her embarrassment and ran to the cupboard to start rummaging through it. After a few minutes of hard work, she finally found two usable sets of bedding.

"Sorry, we don't have many sheets here, so someone might have to sleep on the sofa."

“It’s okay, I’ll sleep here,” Sakurakoji Saiki quickly replied.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Nina, you can sleep with me."

Kawara Momoka made a makeshift bed on the floor with a sheet, handed Sakurakoji Nata a blanket to use, and invited Iori Jinna.

"Eh, are we just going to sleep like this?" Serina's eyes turned into beady eyes again, her gaze sweeping over Sakurakoji Saiki and Kawara Momoka.

"Is there a problem?" Momoka Kawara tilted her head.

And you're asking if there's a problem? Mr. Talent is a man too! —Even though he's so handsome, is it really okay for everyone to spend the night in the same room?!

In her heart, Izayoi screamed, but seeing that the two of them didn't care at all, she could only swallow the words she wanted to say.

"no problem……"

How terrifying! The men and women in big cities are so mature, it's scary!!!

"I'll turn off the lights, is that okay?"

Hi~ x2

This was a sleepless night for all three of them.

For Jingqin Rencai, this was the first time she had ever spent the night at someone else's house, and the person was none other than her idol, who was thousands of miles away, and there was a man in the room! With so many things happening at once, it was really hard for her to fall asleep.

For Momoka Kawaharaki, the thought of leaving the city where she had lived for three years tomorrow filled her with memories and a sense of melancholy.

For Sakurakoji Saiki... drinking too much coffee really affects his sleep!

Volume 1: Daily Life of Attracting Bees and Butterflies: Chapter 64 I Want to Report This, Momoka Actually!

"Are you leaving?"

Sakurakoji opened her eyes on the sofa, looked at Kawara no Momoka who had packed her things and was about to leave, and asked softly.

Kawahara Momoka, who was tiptoeing away from the room with her back to it, was startled by the sudden sound. She looked towards Sakurakoji Sai, who was still lying on the sofa and had woken up, and looked somewhat helpless.

"Sorry for waking you up."

"So you've decided to go back to your hometown?" Sakura Koji looked up at her light gray eyes, his tone gentle.

He couldn't very well say that he woke up the moment she got up, but had been pretending to be asleep until now to avoid embarrassment.

“Well, after all, nothing will change if we keep going.” Momoka Kawara crossed her hands, her eyes calm and serious. “I’m sorry, even though you gave me so much support, I still have to give up.”

Even if he received the funding from Sakurakoji's talent, it would only allow him to drift aimlessly for another month or two, which would be meaningless.

Sakurakoji didn't condemn or try to persuade her; he simply watched her quietly. Before making this decision, she must have gone through countless internal struggles, but reality was cruel, cruel enough to wear down her once boundless passion.

He doesn't plan to persuade her to stay now, but that doesn't mean he'll do nothing. Everyone has their own job, and she won't be able to leave in the end anyway.

"That's alright. Since it's your decision, I can't say anything. But I hope that whatever decision you make in the end, you can follow your heart. That's the kind of Momoka I like." Sakurakoji smiled meaningfully.

"Well then, have a safe trip, and see you later."

"Likes and such..." Momoka Kawahara scratched her head, a little embarrassed, and was also puzzled by his next sentence, "See you later?"

"Alright, I'm leaving now. The moving company will come to help with the luggage later, Sayonara."

She turned around with feigned nonchalance, waved her hand, then paused as if remembering something and added, "Also, if Nina wakes up, I'd appreciate it if you could explain things to her for me."

Hearing the wooden door close softly, Sakurakoji looked at the profile of Ino Serina, who was still in a deep sleep due to insomnia and whose little face was occasionally wrinkled, and murmured softly, "I can't do that, because I'm leaving too."

"Also, I want to report this! Momoka actually dared to sleep with a fan!"

What's most infuriating is that the object of that affection wasn't him.

After lying down for a minute, he carefully stood up from the sofa, stretched, and stepped over Jingqin Rencai's body.

Upon arriving at the kitchen, two white slips of paper were placed on the outer countertop, one for him and the other for Jing Qinrencai.

Sakurakoji glanced at the contents of the note, smiled slightly, and then put his own copy into his pocket. Looking around, he tore a piece of paper from the notebook beside him; it had been torn before, presumably the same one Kawaharaki Momoka had used.

After writing down instructions on how to pack the quilt into a box after Jingqin Rencai woke up, he left a few lines blank and added at the end: "I'll leave the rest to you. See you tonight."

So, about five minutes after Kawara Momoka left, he carefully pushed open the somewhat difficult-to-open wooden door, quietly left, leaving Iori Jinna alone there.

……

Jing Qinren felt something moving on her nose; her brows and the skin on her face wrinkled, feeling something furry and itchy.

Finally, she couldn't take it anymore! She suddenly opened her light blue eyes and was startled by the huge forest of hair in front of her. She straightened up abruptly, tilted her head back, and bumped into the sofa.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch—but it doesn't seem to hurt that much?"

She rubbed her head and looked at the culprit that had disturbed her sleep.

"What? It's you."

The little gray creature looked at her and meowed, seemingly in response to say good morning.

Somewhat bewildered, she stood up and looked around, only to find that there was no one there. The figures of her two companions from last night had also vanished.

"Mr. Talent? Miss Peach Blossom?"
