"What's wrong? You look listless."

"do not bother me."

Li Xi said without looking up.

"You seem very anxious. Did something go wrong? Perhaps I can help you resolve your troubles."

Hailing suggested.

"..."

Li Xi was silent for a while, then replied in a dull voice: "No need."

Hai Ling said calmly, "I understand. I'll tell Tianna-san about your situation when I meet him."

"Wait! What do you mean?"

Li Xi suddenly raised his head and knocked the drink bottle off his head.

Hai Ling was quick to catch the flying [Melting Blancmange! Citrus Flavor] and said, "Judging from your reaction, could it be that your troubles are related to Tenna-san? Are you afraid that he'll find out?"

"Tsk!"

Li Xi raised his eyebrows and warned in an unhappy tone: "Don't do unnecessary things, Hai Ling!"

"That's what I said."

Hai Ling persisted, "Let me guess again, are you worried about Tenna-san and Toyokawa-san's relationship?"

"So what?"

Li Xi glared at his friend, his fair cheeks gradually turning red.

"This is really difficult."

Hai Ling touched her chin and sighed, glancing at the empty seat of Chu Hua who didn't come to class today.

"I told you not to worry about it."

Lixi lay back down again. When she thought of the scene of Tian Nalin and Xiangzi kissing, her heart felt so blocked that she even lost her appetite.

Hai Ling seemed to see through Li Xi's condition, pursed her lips and said: "Are you going to suffer alone like this?"

"..."

Li Xi buried his head in his arms and remained silent.

Seeing this, Hai Ling had to encourage him: "I think if you take the initiative to pursue Tianna-san, the chances of winning will be very high."

"No, it's my own business if I like him. It has nothing to do with him."

Li Xi's muffled voice came again.

"I see."

Hai Ling nodded in sudden realization, "Is this what they call 'I like you, it has nothing to do with you'... I see."

Seeing that Li Xi was silent again, Hai Ling advised: "At least eat well and stay healthy. I remember you said you wanted to form a band for life, didn't you?"

Hearing this, Li Xi sat up straight and said, "Hai Ling, you are so annoying today."

"Really? Thanks for the compliment."

Hai Ling smiled brightly and turned back to her seat.

Seeing her leave, Li Xi sighed helplessly, took out the honeydew melon he had bought, and started eating it with the [Melting Milk Jelly! Citrus Flavor].

Chapter 13: Mu's Theory of Happiness.

In the afternoon, at the entrance of Yuezhisen campus.

Tian Nalin drove here and waited for Ruoye Mu to come out of school.

However, after a while, he still didn't see the girl's slender figure, but instead saw another acquaintance.

Tian Nalin got out of the car and greeted the other party, "Good afternoon, Sushi."

"Mr. Tianna, why are you here?"

A glimmer of hope emerged in Su Shi's heart.

"I'm here to pick up Xiao Mu. Have you seen her?"

Knowing that they were not looking for him, Su Shi lowered his head to hide the sadness in his eyes, "No, Mr. Tianna, Xiao Mu left alone after class."

"But I was at the door the whole time and didn't see her at all."

Tian Nalin wondered.

"It's probably at the Gardening Club. I'll go check it out for you, Mr. Tianna."

"Thank you for your help, Sushi."

Since the new chairman of Yuezhisen has stipulated that mobile phones are not allowed on campus, most students currently keep their phones in lockers instead of carrying them with them, so Su Shi needs to find him to pass on messages.

Tian Nalin returned to the car and waited patiently for a while, but received the news that the person was not found.

This made him think that Ruo Yemu had already left the campus, so he took out his cell phone and called him to confirm the situation, but the call was never connected.

So Tian Nalin called Xiangzi again to inquire about the situation.

"Hey, Xiaoxiang, are you free to talk?"

"Sure, Tenna-kun, Deng and I are in the Astronomy Club."

"It's like this, Xiao Muren seems to be missing. Could you please ask Aunt Ruoye if she has sent someone to pick him up?"

"Okay, I'll ask now."

Xiangzi immediately hung up the phone and did as he was told, only to receive feedback that the Ruoye family had not sent anyone to answer the call.

When Xiangzi relayed this news to Tian Nalin, the latter felt a pang of anxiety.

"Really? Xiaoxiang, are you sure they're not lying?"

"Tenna-kun, there's no need for Aunt Wakaba and the others to hide anything."

"Then Xiaoxiang, try calling Xiaomu's cell phone. I can't get through here."

"I will. Also, you might as well go to the house and check it out, Tenna-kun."

"I see."

Tianyi Nalin understood what the other party meant. Tsukinomori Academy and Chihayacho Residence are both in Toshima Ward. The two places are very close to each other. Xiaomu might have gone back directly.

Seeing him end the call, Su Shi asked with concern, "Mr. Tianna, still no news about Xiao Mu?"

"Yes, I'm going to go home first. Su Shi, do you want to come with me?"

Su Shi hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "I'll wait at the door for a while. Xiao Mu might still be in the school."

"Okay, I'll be leaving first. Remember to contact me as soon as you have any new news."

"Ah."

Su Shi looked at the departing white van and prayed in her heart that her friend was okay.

After a while, Tian Nalin drove back home, but still couldn't find Ruoye Mu. Logically speaking, the girl should have reached home by now, even if she walked.

Tian Nalin called Xiangzi again, and when he learned that the other party's call was also not connected, he suddenly became anxious.

"It's over, Xiao Mu must be in trouble."

"Tena-kun, calm down. Xiaomu might just have been delayed on the way or forgot to bring his phone. The security in Tokyo is not that bad."

Xiangzi comforted him.

"Alas... the accident I'm talking about might be Xiao Mu's own actions, just like what happened last night."

Tian Nalin held his forehead and explained.

"Do you have any basis for saying that?"

Xiangzi asked curiously.

"When I took Xiaomu to school this morning..."

Tian Nalin repeated the simple story again.

"Tenna-kun! Why didn't you tell me this earlier?!"

Xiangzi exclaimed in shock, and his angry look scared Gao Songdeng who was standing next to him.

"I'm just afraid that if you knew, you'd be mad at Xiaomu. Besides, we really didn't do anything."

"Tenna-kun, you really are..."

Xiangzi took a deep breath to calm himself down, "I always hide things in places like this."

"Alright, alright, let's talk about these things later. The most important thing is to find Xiao Mu first."

"I understand. I will inform the Toyokawa and Wakaba families."

Xiangzi hung up the phone and said to his friend, "Sorry, Deng, Mu seems to be in some trouble. I have to go first."

"Xiaoxiang, if there is anything you need my help with, please let me know."

Gao Songdeng clenched his right fist and placed it on his chest.

"I will, Deng, don't worry, just go home and have a good rest."

Xiangzi smiled and comforted softly.

……

Shinjuku District, on the top floor of a 100-meter-high building.

An office worker in a suit and tie was lying by the rooftop fence, smoking, overlooking the bustling commercial street below, thinking about where to go shopping tonight.

Suddenly, he saw a beautiful girl with long light blue hair who looked as delicate as a doll appear on the rooftop of the Mitsui Building opposite.

Then, under his incredulous gaze, the girl stepped directly over the fence and stood on the edge of the rooftop.

Seeing this scene, the office worker came to his senses. He immediately took out his mobile phone and called the police to report that someone had jumped from the building.

Soon, crews from major television stations arrived before the police. Like hyenas smelling blood, these specialized professionals, once they heard about the hot news, ran faster than anyone else. Some even flew in helicopters to film the scene.

After all, the fact that the daughter of a famous comedian and actress jumped off a building in public is enough to make headlines.

Seeing them arrive, the girl began to hum an unknown song like a heroine waiting for the stage to be set.

(My only daughter keeps sowing seeds)

(For the past that will not change, for the future that will never come)

(Do you find this fruitless behavior ridiculous?)

(If that’s the case, then you are a happy person…)

The melody of this song is obviously melodious and cheerful, but when sung by the young girl's tender voice, it somehow makes people feel the sadness at the core.

As the song progressed, the girl danced gracefully on the edge of the rooftop, her light and graceful movements like a beautiful white swan. People were both fascinated and frightened, worried that her slender figure would be blown off at any moment.

(Even if it's just one night of tenderness, that kind of love)

(For that girl, this is eternity)

(Do you find this fruitless love relationship ridiculous?)

(If that’s the case, you’re a happy person, right?)

After a frighteningly graceful dance, the girl stopped moving and began a monologue with an expressionless face, looking towards the empty space in front of her.

([3]...an unstable number, [3-1]...a standard formula)

(The question is not about the nature of the individual, but only about the number of symbols.)

(The world seeks a stable structure and must quickly decide which ones are redundant...)

After saying this, the girl looked up at the sky and continued to sing in a sad, hymn-like tone.

(Why do people fall in love but cannot meet in the right season?)

(Ah…Dad…Mam)
