Young people with light music will not encounter lonely rock music

The two of them were going in the opposite direction to Kita's homeward direction, so under the streetlights that were surrounded by mosquitoes and made an annoying buzzing sound, the boy and girl walked side by side on the dim path.

Although silence itself was the norm when walking alone with Ichiri Goto, the silence in the air now made Kotobuki feel suffocated inexplicably.

I feel a little uneasy.

Gotou lowered his head and walked while looking at the cracks in the asphalt road.

"I always feel like the band has become a little strange." Goto Kazuri suddenly said in a low voice.

"Huh?" Kotobuki Hikaru's voice was too soft to hear.

"How should I put it... Although I understand that the atmosphere will definitely become tense when we are about to face a life-and-death test, but..."

Some are hard to tell.

Don't know what's wrong.

"Even the atmosphere around Hikari has changed." In the end, Goto Kazuri concluded with such inexplicable words.

The girl turned her head and raised her eyes.

As a sociopath, she was very sensitive to changes in the atmosphere, so she felt it clearly.

"The light from before is more reassuring..."

Goto Ichiri tentatively stretched out his hand.

"One mile..." Qinbukiguang's mood was as chaotic as insects surrounding the street lamp.

Wanting to do the same as before, try to grab his sleeve.

But when my fingertips just touched...

"Kotobuki-kun! Koichiri!"

A familiar voice came from behind.

Gotou Ichisato was interrupted by the sudden voice and immediately put down his raised hand.

Chapter 51 Reasons to work hard

In the deserted dark streets, the white fluorescent vending machines are one of the few light sources, which is particularly attractive.

Goto Ichisato, who was just about to get warm, was interrupted by a sudden voice behind him. His face was slightly panicked, and he hid his hands in the sleeves of his pink sportswear randomly. The pink color on his cheeks appeared in the darkness. Not easy to see clearly.

Da da da......

Shoes made crisp footsteps on the cold ground, which was particularly noisy in the silent night.

The young girl carrying her instrument turned around and saw Ichichi Hongka, who was wearing an extra coat than she was in the practice room, running over with a smile full of vitality.

As a drummer, Ichichi Hongxia was in good physical condition and didn't even out of breath when he ran over.

"Hongxia?" Kotobuki Hikaru asked. "Is there a problem?"

"I'm sorry, I stopped you all suddenly." Hongxia Yiji glanced at the duo in sportswear in front of her.

His eyes stayed on the position of their hands for a moment, then immediately moved away.

"Coke and juice?" Ichichi Hongxia said.

"Um...what?" The two of them were confused.

dong dong——

Without waiting for Goto Kazuri and Kotobuki Mitsuru to question, Ichichi Hikaru quickly produced two cans of drinks from the vending machine nearby.

"Here you go." Itachi Hongxia handed the Coke to Gotou Kazuri.

"thanks..."

"And Kotobuki-kun." Juice pointed in Kotobuki's direction.

"Thank you." Qinbuki took the jar numbly.

Itachi Hongxia hesitated for a long time before the vending machine, and finally chose a refreshing energy drink.

"If you two are accommodating because of me, then I want to say sorry."

Itachi Hongxia opened the can of energy drink and faced the white fluorescent light, leaving only a profile of her expressionless face.

"Huh?" The two looked at each other with expressions of confusion.

"Well, if you think about it, the two of you originally joined the ending band just because of the atmosphere, right?"

"Ah..." Recalling the scene when they first met Itachi Hongxia in the park, both of them felt nostalgic.

"Speaking of which, I haven't asked you why Kotobuki-kun and Koichiri are willing to join the Ending Band or why they want to form a band.

Goto Ichiri's expression changed, and he turned his eyes slightly.

Should I say that I just wanted to be a popular figure?

However, practicing guitar for several years without stopping for such an insignificant reason is something I can brag about.

but......

Goto Ichisato involuntarily turned to the right and looked at Kotobuki Hikaru's expression under the street lamp.

If it's your current self.

The reason for wanting to join the band must have changed.

"In my words... I just want to form a band." Kotobuki said with a smooth expression.

Thinking about it carefully, it was only when Kotobuki Mitsuru graduated from junior high school that Tsumugi graduated from high school that he really had the idea of ​​forming a band.

Because I want to be like Tsumugi-san.

Gentle and elegant, extremely reliable...

I want to catch up with Sister Tsumugi who has left me and gone far away with her band members. Perhaps that is why I want to chase after Sister Tsumugi.

The young man abandoned his high-profile self.

I straightened my hair, changed my clothes, and threw away my guitar and my wild and unruly self.

I just want to be like Tsumugi-san...

That's why he wanted a band like Sister Tsumugi, a band that could have several, where they could have afternoon tea together, play together, and work hard together.

I just want to be treated the same as Sister Tsumugi in front of someone.

However, it is obvious that his current situation has nothing to do with what he expected.

"Kotobuki-kun really wants to form a band... However, I feel that it would be such a waste for Kotobuki-kun, who is so skilled and excellent, to stay in a band like ours that can't even officially perform on stage. "Yidizhi Hongxia said a little embarrassed.

Anticipation comes with some fear.

As if out of fear, when the young man realizes the truth, he will choose to leave here.

"Besides, Koichiri chose to stay because of Kotobuki-kun." Hongxia's eyes shifted to Gotou Kazuri

"Eh-ohhhh..."

Gotou's face turned red.

I don't know what to say.

I don’t know whether I should confirm it or deny it.

After a long time, she finally calmed down.

"Well..." the girl said in an imperceptible voice and nodded.

"After all, it was because of my persuasion that she came." Kotobuki Hikaru also agreed.

But for some reason, two strange and even resentful gazes came together.

Yijizhi Hongxia didn't know for a moment whether he was really stupid or pretending to be stupid.

"Actually... I also want to form a band with everyone." Kotobuki said awkwardly.

Unknowingly, the originally silent and depressing atmosphere completely disappeared due to the arrival of Ichichi Hongxia.

"Because I am very happy when I am with everyone."

It's very embarrassing to say this to people in reality.

"So, I wanted to keep the closing band going."

"I see...that's good." Yi Jizhi Hongxia sighed reassuringly, as if she had relaxed a heavy burden.

"As for Hongxia, why did you form the band?"

"Well......"

When asked this question, the well-spoken Itachi Hongxia suddenly fell silent.

"This question... is so embarrassing." Hongxia smiled. "My dream is bigger than being on the stage of the Budokan, and it's even further out of reach."

"Hey, it turns out that Hongxia has such a lofty dream." The young man stopped asking.

"So, I have to keep it a secret for now!"

Yijizhi Hongxia put her fingers in front of her lips, making a gesture of confidentiality, then waved her hands and returned to the original route.

"Then, I'll take care of you tomorrow!"

Da da da......

The sound of shoes on the asphalt gradually faded away.

The silent street returned to the silence of just two people not long ago.

"Let's go back."

Kotobuki Hikaru said, turned around and continued walking towards the station.

"Light."

Gotou Issato's voice rang in his ears.

The boy's sleeve was also pulled by Goto Ichiri, who was still standing on the spot.

"Ok?"

Kotobuki Hikaru turned around.

Then I saw a picture of Goto Kazuri who mustered up all his courage and tried to look determined.

"Are you just choosing to join the Ending Band to realize your dream?"

"..." Kotobuki Mitsuru was startled by Goto Ichiri's sudden serious question. "Um..."

"In that case..."

The girl made up her mind.

At the same time, he took the initiative to hold Qinbukiguang's hand without any explanation.

"I will definitely work hard for tomorrow's assessment!"

Goto Ichisato raised his head and shouted with all his strength.

It was the first time for Kotobuki Mitsuru to see Goto Isato looking so determined.

Goto Kazuri, who seemed weak and could be bullied, was actually like this now, as if he was a samurai who regarded death as a returning warrior.

"Absolutely, I will never let the band disband like this!" Goto Kazuri tried so hard that he closed his eyes when he spoke.

"Then, come on."

Kotobuki Mitsuki pulled Goto along and walked toward the station.

Chapter 52 Telephone

Sometimes I really don’t want to go home.

Especially when you live alone.

The young man pushed open the empty British-style solid wood door. Even without turning on the lights, the hall seemed a little bright due to the moonlight coming in from the huge floor-to-ceiling windows.

This kind of weather is a bit too hot for boys to wear sportswear and jackets, but the 24-hour air conditioner blows away all the heat from Qinfeng's body in an instant.
