Guitar, loneliness and the blue sea

"Oh, it's a bit annoying not to talk about this anymore."

Liang sat up, she didn't like heavy topics.

"So, you want to do something together? The three of us."

She stretched out her right hand that usually played with the bass strings and touched Eiri's wrist.

"Eh eh?"

Inri swallowed her saliva.

Do you... do you want to do it?

...

on the balcony.

Kasumigaoka Yusuke held the phone to his ear, looking at the sea against the sun with his eyes, his brows furrowed.

In fact, he had talked a lot with Ryo before Eri-ri came and guessed her intentions.

"I see...there is such a thing." He murmured.

"It turns out that the four of them didn't want to go to college at first, but they just didn't take the rock and roll road, so they took the ordinary road..."

No matter it was Pochi, Nijika, Ryo, or Kita, none of the four of them mentioned this matter to him, Yusuke, no, no one mentioned it to anyone.

Hiroi Kiuri accidentally let it slip when she was drunk at Kasumigaoka Shiu's house.

"Yeah, but that's normal. How many people in this country say, 'Let's play rock and roll after high school,' and how many of them actually realize it?" Shiyu said on the other end of the phone.

"I can only say that the road to deviance has never been so easy."

Yusuke smoothed his messy hair in the wind and couldn't help but sigh.

"There are countless people who want to draw comics, write novels, play football, and become idols, singers, and movie stars."

"Most of them just think about it, and most of them will be turned into boring social beasts by society." Shiyu said sharply, "And there are some people who are worse off. They obviously have the ability to do that kind of thing, but maybe because of There are various objective conditions and problems that force you to give up. Imagine that you are happily playing rock and roll, and suddenly your parents call and say, "You are already a grown-up, please find me a job quickly." The so-called dream is Isn’t it just shattered?”

We are so lucky, sister.

Yusuke thought so.

“So, is that why you chose to end the band?” he asked. “To help them get there?”

"I have to admit that there is this factor." Shiyu replied, "But I am not a philanthropist. I have said it before, right? I think they have great potential, so this can be regarded as an investment."

"Invest...?"

"What's your choice? Yusuke?" my sister asked.

Yusuke turned his head and looked at the two girls in the room. They seemed to be doing something small on the bed.

"Do you believe in their dreams?"

...

151 foreign friends

Kasumigaoka Yusuke put down the phone, rubbed his sore eyes, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Well, it’s still the same, just take it easy first.

You can think about things in the future slowly.

He turned around and when he opened the sliding door, he saw Eiri and Ryo rolling over each other vigorously on the bed. Their freshly washed hair was scattered and the white sheets were rolled up on their bodies.

"Um..."

Seeing him come in, the two women stopped what they were doing.

"Well, what are you doing?" Ying Lili asked coquettishly.

Yusuke leaned on the table nearby and opened a bottle of mineral water.

"It's okay. You two keep fighting. I like to watch women fight best."

"It's just playing." Ryo said, "Eiriri wants to play."

"Nonsense! It was obviously you who invited me..."

Ying Lili sat up and pulled her bra under her T-shirt.

"Why are you invited?" Yusuke asked curiously.

"Ahem—" Yinglili quickly covered Liang's mouth, "I didn't do anything... I was just bored, just having fun, pillow fights and stuff like that."

"Oh! Pillow fight!" Yusuke became interested, "Can I play too? I'll go to the almighty boss to order some pillows..."

"Yusuke, I'm hungry." Yamada Ryo suddenly said to him.

"Oh..." Yusuke took out his mobile phone, "Well, do you want takeaway-"

"...So, I'm going out to eat."

What he didn't expect was that Liang put on his slippers, picked up his wallet and walked out!

"You and Ying Lili should have a good rest."

"and many more--"

Yusuke raised his hand to stop her, but he didn't have time.

"This guy..." He laughed angrily.

Looking back at Ying Lili, she was almost doubting life.

"How can there be such a person in the world who lets his boyfriend live alone in the same room with another woman and goes out to eat by himself..."

Eiri's three views have been constantly refreshed since she met Yusuke and his group, and now she is very tired.

"Well, if there is such a person in the world, it must be Yamada Ryo, right?" Yusuke said with a smile, "But that's okay, we haven't had a serious chat for a long time. There are a lot of things you want to say, right?"

"That's true, but why do you still want to stop her?" Yinglili discovered a blind spot.

"Because it was my wallet she took."

"What kind of person is Yamada?"

The girl with twin ponytails said loudly that she really couldn't figure out what Ryo was doing.

But she also understood that she was helping herself.

"Don't you understand?" Yusuke asked, "She's actually pretty good."

"Oh, I know, I know, I definitely can't let go when she's here..."

Yusuke smiled knowingly.

Yinglili actually admitted this matter frankly.

There has really been a lot of progress.

"Well, after all, you are not familiar with her yet, and I have only known her for two months. In comparison, as I said before, I have known you for 17 years."

Yusuke sat next to her and tried his best to assume a less ambiguous posture.

But in Ying Lili's eyes, it's still very suggestive.

She was sitting on her knees in the middle of the big white bed, her shorts slightly rolled up due to the play she had just had with Liang, revealing her jade-white thighs and exquisite jade feet.

Yusuke Kasumigaoka, who has a strong determination, doesn't have any special thoughts. After all, in his eyes, Eri is more like a sister than a potential love partner.

but...

He could see through her thoughts. She didn't have much power, so it was easy to see through her.

You came all the way here just to do that kind of thing, right?

But she was confused.

If she really wanted it...

"Eiriri." Yusuke said softly.

"Ok?"

"Would you like to try it on?"

Eiri turned her head, and there was a ring-shaped object between the index and middle fingers of Yusuke's left hand.

Her heart was beating so fast that she couldn't even say the iconic 'eh'.

Yusuke just looked at her like this, with no sadness or joy in his expression.

"Usually... in anime, this happens when girls ask boys this question, right?" Finally, she whispered.

"Ah, a plot that I love to see. Then the boy thought repeatedly between succumbing to desire or keeping the relationship healthy, and finally refused. Some viewers thought he was very manly, and some viewers thought he was not manly enough..."

Yusuke kept smiling and tried to make the atmosphere as relaxed as possible.

"I can only say that although this kind of plot is cliché, it is not groundless..." Ying Lili said.

She never looked at him, she didn't dare to look at him.

"...You understand, right? I don't want to do anything to damage our relationship, even if it's possible. If it goes too far, it won't end well."

"I don't want to either."

"So... put that thing in your hand... We never did it when we were dating, and it's even less possible now."

Yusuke happily threw the thing on the bedside table.

"You have really matured, I am very happy."

"What about you? Are you mature enough to ask such a question?" Ying Lili turned around, finally glanced at him, and raised her golden eyebrows.

"It's not so much that I've matured, it's better that I've become more diplomatic and given you the choice."

"Very irresponsible, really tasteless, not like a man."

She scolded him, but smiled.

The two looked at each other.

As before, there are no barriers.

So much the better.

Is it really the best?

Did a relationship of 17 years fall apart after just one fling?

The two of them started thinking about the same problem at the same time.

...

"So what did we do in the afternoon? We ate McDonald's takeout and then played the girl-building game all afternoon."

In the evening, when the two idiots Kitahara Iori and Imamura Kohei, who returned to PaB's residence, asked about their love today in an interrogative tone, Kasumigaoka Yusuke said this.

Of course, he left out all the minutiae.

"You really didn't do anything?" Kitahara Iori didn't believe it.

"I didn't do anything." Yusuke spread his hands, "The relationship between me and that child is like the relationship between you and Chisa. I can't do anything, right?"

"Ha, I understand." Iori understood instantly.

But Imamura Kohei on the side couldn't sit still.

"Why! Someone can! Lying on the same bed with a beautiful girl! Playing galgame!"

He knelt on the ground, tears of blood streaming from his eyes.

"Oh God! Lalazi! This is not fair...Why am I not Kasumigaoka Yusuke..."

"You have dived three times in the open waters of Miyako Island. You have no right to complain, right?" Iori complained.

"And what we are playing is not a galgame." Yusuke corrected, "It is "Shine! Youjun Girls". Eiri is very interested in a character named Mejiro McQueen in it..."

"That makes no difference! You bastard, your life is too good, isn't it? Would you like to live a little harder life?"

Imamura Kohei clenched his fists.

Yusuke shrugged off his anger.
