Scratching her head in embarrassment, the girl smiled sincerely:
"But, I'm sorry...I'm very tired now and can't sing any more—"
"There is really no other way. Well, if necessary, let Brother Mochizuki next to me sing, right?"
"......Eh?!"
Hearing Xu Yuhuai's sudden words, Mochizuki's whole body was filled with excitement——
Almost subconsciously, the young man's voice was cold and direct:
"Daba."
"Ah... Brother Mochizuki can't do it~"
Looking at Mochizuki mischievously in front of him, Xu Yuhuai's originally sobbing voice was suddenly enveloped in a faint joy:
"Okay then - um, Kurihara-nee-san, is that okay?"
"Daba."
Almost completely in sync, Kurihara Saki also made a big "×" sign:
"Mochizuki and I have no talent for music at all, and we are even tone-deaf in singing, so we shouldn't show our embarrassment in public."
"Yeah...that's it~"
The girl's jade-colored eyes turned slightly, and a touch of playfulness appeared at this moment:
"It's really cunning to say that... But since you have no intention of going on stage, I can't force you--"
"That's it, the concert is over!"
The girl's voice was loud and clear. When she finished speaking, she seemed to glance at Mochizuki secretly, and her smile showed a hint of shyness:
"I'm going back. Mom will be worried if I go back too late..."
"it is good!"
The audience of enthusiastic Showa men passing by applauded enthusiastically, stirring up the atmosphere——
At this point, this street concert, which had a lively atmosphere like a concert, has truly come to an end.
...
Watching Xu Yuhuai get into the car with a short-haired woman dressed in a suit and a lawyer, waving goodbye to him with a smile, Mochizuki and his group slowly strolled through the peaceful streets.
"...It's over."
Watching the concert end and the noisy streets returning to all directions, Yuya Tsugawa, the son of a bicycle dealer, couldn't help but chuckle:
"What an incredible performance - I didn't expect that so many of Mr. Slothfish's songs would be performed like this. As a fan, I really had tears in my eyes."
Saying this, Tsugawa Yu gently touched Mochizuki's shoulder with his elbow:
"Really, Li? As a die-hard fan, are you moved?"
"...Well, of course I'm touched."
Responding with some embarrassment, realizing that Kasumi Takegami was still around, Mochizuki answered subconsciously:
"If the sloth fish were here, they would definitely be happy too——"
".......is that so?"
It was beyond Mochizuki's expectations.
The puppy-eyed young president, who had always been quite calm and said nothing, couldn't help but narrowed his eyes slightly:
"Mochizuki-kun...it seems a little uncomfortable that you are still hiding the matter, right?"
"........"
It was just when Kasumi Takegami finished speaking.
Mochizuki, Tsugawa Yu and Kurihara Saki stopped at this moment.
The autumn wind stirred up the golden color, and Mochizuki turned around with sweat on her cheeks——
Looking back at dusk, I saw that man was under the golden autumn sun.
The atmosphere in all directions seemed to have changed slightly.
"...I never expected Mochizuki-san to have such an expression~"
Looking at Mochizuki's somewhat complicated expression, Kasumi Takegami's eyes glowed amber, her mouth pursed slightly, and her smile swayed slightly along the hem of her skirt:
"Why, did I guess wrong about the identity of Teacher Sloth Fish?"
"...I'm not a sloth fish."
Mochizuki shook his head, trying to fool him with word games——
Unexpectedly, Takegami Kasumi just shook her head slightly. After a short silence, a smile appeared in her furry eyes:
"Since you're not... I can understand that sloth fish are two in one?"
Stop talking.
The girl's slender fingers pointed gently at Kurihara's mother, who was sitting in a wheelchair and being pushed forward by Mochizuki:
"Let me guess...the sloth fish is actually Mochizuki-san and Xiaosaki, right?"
"...little orange."
Seeing Kasumi Takegami's expression as if she had seen through everything, Saki Kurihara was also a little surprised:
"How did you know about this-"
"It's very simple."
As if she saw what Kurihara's mother wanted to ask, the girl, who had always looked a little tired but was quite relaxed now, lifted up her slightly curly short hair and her amber eyes sparkled:
"It's actually not difficult to come to this conclusion. You just need to pay attention to it... I am a future cartoonist and I will not miss such details."
".......Feel sorry."
Kurihara Saki and Mochizuki Ideal, who always felt that they had done something wrong, could not help but slightly droop their heads:
"We didn't hide it on purpose...we didn't mean to treat Little Chengzi as an outsider——"
"alright......."
Seeing his friend, who had always been mature and gentle and always sat in a wheelchair, lower his head like this, Kasumi Takegami also waved his hand gently:
"It's okay, I won't blame you for hiding something from me -"
"Being inseparable is not evidence of a good relationship. People can actually enjoy the right amount of loneliness and distance, and find happiness outside of social contact... I think this is the original intention of you making music together. That’s probably the reason why you hid it from me.”
That's it.
Gently raising his thumb, the little president with dog eyes smiled like this to the young girl:
"I didn't expect that you have gained more than [-] fans along the way, and you have also helped listeners like Xu Yuhuai's sister to get out of the haze. You have added a lot of color to my boring and peaceful daily life——"
"As friends, I'm proud of you."
"Thank you for your hard work over the past year."
"........"
As if he felt unbelievable, Kurihara Saki looked at Kasumi Takegami in front of him, who turned his back on the rising sun and bowed to him. His voice was also a little complicated:
"...No, it's not that great, little Chengzi——"
"do not worry about it."
He waved his hand gently, saying nothing.
The little president with dog eyes closed his eyes slightly, raised his head, and said in a very gentle voice:
"Honestly, after knowing that you are sloth fish, I feel a lot more relaxed -"
"My idol is right next to me. What could be happier than this?"
That's it.
President Dog Eyes walked slowly and sideways:
"But... I'm still a little bit unwilling-"
"Obviously I am also with Mochizuki-san, but in the end I did not achieve the same results as Saki-san."
"........Um?"
It was as if I heard some special meaning from Takegami Kasumi's words.
Mochizuki's expression was somewhat surprised:
"President Takegami, what do you mean-"
"I think I'm going to start chasing, too."
Thoughts fell.
Looking at Mochizuki Ri in front of him... the young president's tone instantly filled with high spirits:
"I will definitely...I will definitely make Mochizuki-san a hero! Whether it's the Shonen Jump Rookie Award or a popular serialized work, I will accept it with you——"
"So... please stay with me in the coming days~"
".......Eh?"
For a moment, Mochizuki looked confused.
But soon, he reacted:
".........no problem."
A bright smile appeared at this moment.
"It's a promise, I will always follow the teacher's teachings."
"A word is settled!"
Kasumi Takegami wasn't quite sure what kind of mood she had when she extended her little finger.
She seems to have handed over her loneliness and bravery to the long road, and handed over her faint youthfulness to the not-too-distant future——
But...at this moment, the girl was no longer confused.
Linking their fingers, looking directly at Mochizuki, whose identity was revealed, Kasumi Takegami's heartbeat was beating fast.
"Next, please give me your advice."
The young man spoke slowly, while shaking his two little hands that were pulling each other:
"Pull the hook, hang yourself...No change is allowed for 100 years."
"Ok!"
Under the cherry blossom tree, the hearts of young girls seem to be getting closer and closer.
And looking at the two people who were so eager.
I don't know whether it was because of the lingering charm or the feeling of friendship... Kurihara Saki just chuckled twice, then took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the scene in front of him.
50. The road of cartoonist: start!
Mochizuki Ri, the hidden slash youth of Momoyama Garden, the emperor of the Internet, and a social terror in reality. He is always missing when he is in school, and he is not even found in club activities. According to common sense, he is just a dispensable person— - But obviously, as the thirteenth seat of the shadow of the comic club, this man still silently started his own practice in a corner where no one can see.
Some time has passed since that street charity performance. Facing the small miracle that comes from life, the young man felt really relieved——
However, relief is relief, Mochizuki's entertainment journey must continue to move forward.
"...The painter has improved very quickly."
A few days later, in the evening, Takegami Kasumi gently held her chin and looked at the "One Punch Man" comic manuscript that Mochizuki handed to her. There was also a faint admiration on her usually lazy expression:
"Although it's not yet beautiful enough to be called beautiful, it's still pretty good——"
That's it.
There was a hint of curiosity in the expression of the little president with doggy eyes:
"...How is it? Isn't your popularity pretty good recently?"
