Does gravity make me stronger?

No, I didn't think it sounded that good when I first heard it.

Ah, fickle men.

Ignoring the system's complaints, Hachiman took out his phone and searched for "Haruhi Kage" on a search engine. The next second, thousands of results appeared on the screen.

Springtime is the animal breeding season! Use Sun Shadow brand feed to increase litter size!

The movie "Springtime Film" is about to be released; buy one get one free on the IMAX version.

There were very few results for the music category, and Hachiman scrolled through several pages on the screen before finally finding what he wanted.

Please enjoy our new song, "Spring Shadow"! (Original song by the band)

This post was published a year ago on Little Bluebird's music-focused social media channel. Clicking on it reveals that the post was made by a female band called 'Crychic'.

"Crychic? Crychick! A crying fledgling?"

The name Crychic is puzzling, but that's probably the band's tradition. There are all sorts of band names like AKA and SNH that don't make any sense, so Hachiman didn't pay much attention to it.

In addition, he simply browsed through the social channels and was about to click on "crychic's" personal channel when he was attracted by another post.

'The Guitar Heroes you follow has posted a new update'

Has Boqi-chan updated?

Hachiman quickly opened YouTube, clicked on Guitar Hero's personal channel, and saw the latest post which read:

'I'm so happy to be performing at a LiveHouse today and to have received so much support. #LivePerformance #OriginalSong'

In addition, a photo of the guitar that Goto Ichiri always carries with him was also included.

Although it was just a small performance at RiNG's cafe, Goto Ichiri was very satisfied with her performance today and still posted it online, managing to ride the wave of popularity.

After the post was published, people quickly replied in the comments section.

Music is the only thing that cannot be let down: When will Guitar Hero be updated? I want to see new songs!

Wang Xiaoju: Guitar hero, I love you, I want to have your babies!

Most of the comments were mindless praise of Goto Ichiri, but a few of them caught Hachiman's attention.

Top Instructor: Oh, Guitar Heroes actually did a live performance! Which livehouse was so lucky?

Hachiman frowned, clicked on the netizen's profile, and saw the self-introduction: "Brothers, it's almost time for dinner again!"

Scrolling down, his feed is full of photos of him with underground idols, and judging from the clues in each of his posts, this guy must be a pretty fervent fan.

[Isn't this great? That Pochi-chan also has such a die-hard fan. We'll give him a good popcorn-making session.]

What a monstrosity!

Ordinary enthusiastic fans are fine, but these kinds of fanatical fans are dangerous.

For example, what he said in the comments section just now seemed like he was trying to get information out of Goto Ichiri, trying to find out which performance hall she was performing at.

It's one thing to know, but what if he goes to the scene to open the box?

It's ten or even nine parts malicious intent.

Thinking about all this, Hachiman responded in the comments section of the other person's post.

I love Chiba; yeah, yeah, I also want to go to that LiveHouse so I can meet the guitar hero!

Wang Xiaoju: Holy crap, there's a box of little devils here, everyone hurry up and take it down!

Music is the only thing that cannot be let down: I've reported it!

Before long, a bunch of righteous keyboard warriors took over his comment section and occupied the moral high ground to harshly criticize his attempt to open the box.

Even the private messaging interface, which only pushed system messages before the account was created, was almost bombarded by them.

The young hero, Guitar Hero, is terrifying!

Hachiman didn't take it seriously, simply placing his phone aside and resuming his exploration of the world of knowledge.

A short while later, the platform sent a notification message: Your account has been banned for one day for posting inappropriate remarks.

"Done!" Hachiman smiled.

Although his account was suspended for a day, the account called "Gold Medal Lecturer" also seemed to be hesitant to continue probing in Goto Ichiri's comment section.

Hachiman knew that Goto Ichiri would read every comment carefully, and by the time she read this far, she would probably understand his intentions.

Goto, next time you'll have to protect your own privacy!

I must say, Hachiman, you really excel at this kind of strategy where you kill a thousand enemies but lose eight hundred of your own.

Thank you for the compliment.

【…】

...

Meanwhile, in the rehearsal room of the RiNG performance hall.

Shiina Riki sat behind the drum set, arms crossed, with a sinister expression on his face like the calm before a storm.

Everyone else was too afraid to approach, except for Takamatsu Akari who went up and whispered a few words, but it was to no avail; Shiina Tatsuki remained in that low-pressure state.

With a "bang," the practice room door was gently pushed open, and the last member of the band, Yoro Nai, walked in.

Shiina Tatsuki quickly stood up and shouted, "Hey, I'm telling you, stray cat, do you know what you've been doing this afternoon?"

Her tone was so intense that Chihaya Aine, who was practicing the piano alone nearby, tensed up in fright.

"what happened?"

Yoro remained as unmoved as ever.

"Did you distribute our sheet music to someone else?"

"Ah, um."

"And then you even played it again in the coffee shop?"

"Ah."

"You..." Shiina Tatsuki clenched her fists and stepped forward angrily, "Do you know that this is our song? How can you just let others watch it!"

"But didn't you already abandon it?"

Rakuna's cold words struck right to the heart of Shiina Ritsuki.

I haven't abandoned it, it's just that playing "Spring Shadows" isn't appropriate right now...

Shiina Riki knew that Rakuna couldn't possibly understand her inner thoughts, so she just bit her cherry lips and remained silent.

This scene is titled: "Yao Rana's three sentences made Shiina Tatsuki sound the retreat and stop the attack."

Seeing the atmosphere in the practice room fall into an awkward silence again, Nagasaki Motoyo stepped in to calm things down, saying, "Everyone, please stop arguing. Let's practice properly first. We'll stick to the original plan for the piece, okay?"

"casual."

Shiina Tatsuki casually tossed out a sentence and returned to the drum kit, seemingly entering a state of self-isolation.

Chihaya Aine watched this scene quietly, feeling a slight pang of envy.

Although I knew that Shiina Tatsuki was a fan of strength, I still didn't expect her respect for strength to be so sincere. When she grows up, will she be able to take over the game?

“The performance is next week, why don’t we all play together first?” Nagasaki Motoyo suggested.

"..."

No one answered, but Nagasaki Motoyo still said with a smile, "Since no one is saying anything, I'll take that as your agreement. Then we'll play together again in ten minutes."

Chapter 59, Episode 58: Honkai Impact 3rd Actual Demonstration PV

The next day, as soon as Hachiman entered the classroom, his gaze fell on a little pink-haired boy. So early in the morning, the gravity on that kid's head was truly blinding.

22-> 31

It had dropped significantly a few days ago, but why has it started fluctuating wildly again recently?

As for her guitar skills, Chihaya Aine should have improved a lot after being coached by Goto Ichiri. Could it be that she has problems with her interpersonal relationships again?

It's unusual that Hachiman showed such a strong interest in Chihaya Aine and Takamatsu Akari's band.

Chihaya Aine is a social butterfly, a fact that Hachiman greatly admires.

This child is a transfer student, but he gets along very well with the girls in the class, clearly possessing exceptional social skills far exceeding those of ordinary high school students.

however.

Even such a talented person cannot survive in a band. What is the reason for this?

After thinking it over and over, Hachiman could only come up with one guess: Could that guy named Riki really be a stress monster?

"How's the band doing?" Hachiman asked, leaning closer.

"Ah, it's Hachiman Hikigaya."

Chihaya Aine listlessly raised her head, her voice weak and feeble.

"As for the band, it's nothing."

If there's nothing wrong, I shouldn't be so troubled, right?

So he opened up.

'Ugh, Riki's still not satisfied, and Soyo's acting seems really weird too...'

'If I told Hachiman, that pushover would definitely help me again, but Hachiman has already helped me so much, I can't trouble him any further.'

Chihaya Aine is actually thinking of me, I'm so touched (fake crying).

"Did you have a conflict with the members?"

"Huh? How did you know?" Chihaya Aine asked, looking surprised.

"Just a guess. If the band members are so difficult to get along with, why would they stay?"

Hachiman asked a probing question, and the other person began to think about it seriously.

'Hmm, Hachiman is right. I don't necessarily have to put all my eggs in one basket.'

'However, since entering high school, I haven't accomplished anything, so it's not time to give up so quickly.'

'Besides, the atmosphere in the band wasn't always that unpleasant.'

At this moment, Chihaya Aine's mentality is like that of a team on the edge of the playoffs. They know that their chances of making it to the playoffs are slim, but they are unwilling to just give up like this. So, before the final result comes out, they put in their best effort and keep working hard.

Even if they make it to the playoffs and are eliminated in the first round, it's still better than a team that doesn't even make it to the games.

What? You're saying that reaching the round of 16 is better than staying at home?

You're right.

Chihaya Aine: "How should I put it? You don't want to give up so easily, do you?"

Unaware of the specifics, Hachiman could only shake his head helplessly and return to his seat: "Is that so? Well then, good luck."

During lunch break, Takamatsu Akari cautiously arrived at Hachiman's secret base alone, where she was leisurely squatting on the steps in front of a door in an Asian squatting posture.

"Is there something you need?" Hachiman asked, sipping his MAX coffee. He looked up and met Takamatsu Akari's gentle gaze.

Then, Takamatsu Akari smoothed out her skirt and silently crouched down about 50cm away from Hachiman.

"The performance is about to start, and I'm very nervous."

"Hmm, there's still a little over a week left, how's the band doing?"

I just asked Chihaya Aine this question, but since I don't have much in common with Takamatsu Akari, I can only ask it again.

"not too good."

Takamatsu Akari lowered her head and then took a step toward Hachiman, closing the distance by about 20cm.

The distance between the two is now only 30cm.

61-> 52

Feeling a little uncomfortable, Hachiman decisively moved 20cm to the side, bringing the distance back to 50cm.

52-> 61

then.
