No matter which of these two songs Xiangzi chooses, as long as Xiangzi performs well, she should be able to win the championship, because Xiangzi has already made a breakthrough last night. If she is not inferior to Maki in strength, as long as the songs are not too bad, Xiangzi's awareness and performance will definitely beat Maki and win the championship. After all, the biggest opponent, Arima Kousei, was unexpectedly eliminated.

Preparing this song for Xiangzi was actually out of Lu Yu's selfish desire.

because......

Xiangzi is still the most handsome during the Bai Yueguang period. Since she still can't untie her knot, let him help her untie it.

This could be considered the last gift he prepared for Xiangzi before leaving.

Play Kasuga Shadow and go back to your friends, Toyokawa Shoko.

"Is that so? Then you should prepare more delicious food. Xiangzi must be exhausted."

"Well, then, Kazusa, you just wait here for Xiangzi. I'll go back and get ready."

"Oh." Without noticing that Ruyu's tone was a little strange, Touma Kazusa nodded.

Walking silently to the exit of the auditorium, Lu Yu looked at the girl playing on the stage for the last time.

More than half a year.

He and the other person have been through too much. Like Hoshino Ai, Xiangzi left a mark in his heart.

Shoko, おめでとう (congratulations).

Then, さようなら (goodbye~).

"9.5!"

"9.5 points!"

"Contestant Shoko Toyokawa scored an amazing 9.5 points!"

“Congratulations to Toyokawa Shoko for winning the 114th Hamamatsu International Piano Competition Youth Category Championship!!!”

Won!

The body was shaking and tears were forming in the corners of the eyes.

Looking at the cheers from the thousands of spectators sitting in the auditorium, Toyokawa Shoko could no longer hold back.

She won, she won!

Champion, champion of the Hamamatsu International Piano Competition, she did it.

Hesha sister, Luyu, did you see it?

I won, I won!!!!

Looking at the audience, Toyokawa Shoko saw Touma Kazusa who was also covering her face with tears in her eyes. She waved to her teacher, and when she noticed that Shoko was greeting her, Touma Kazusa quickly wiped away her tears and excitedly responded that she was the student she was most proud of.

"Congratulations to Toyokawa Shoko. At this moment, do you have anything to say, Toyokawa Shoko?"

After taking the microphone handed over by the host, Xiangzi calmed herself down. She now had so many things to say to someone, so she wanted to end the interview quickly and go find Lu Yu.

"Thank you very much..."

Although I really want to leave quickly, I still have to go through the ceremony.

Acceptance speeches and prize presentations, the Hamamatsu International Piano Competition is no joke and these important steps cannot be omitted.

During the award ceremony, Xiangzi saw her friends. Everyone heard about Kasuga Shadow, so under Soyo's organization, they gathered together in the evening and came to the competition site.

The game is over, and backstage, the five people who were once right are gathered together again.

"Xiangzi!"

"Sakiko!"

"Xiangzi."

"Shoko-chan."

"Everyone..."

Looking at the four people in front of him, Xiangzi had a lot to say.

She no longer needs to hide those things. The Kasuga Shadow that Lu Yu chose for her is telling her that she should be brave.

“Thank you for coming to the venue.”

"Soyo, Mu, Lixi, and... Deng."

Xiangzi could explain. She no longer needed to hide the burden on her shoulders and the misfortunes at home from her friends.

"Feel sorry."

"I'm really sorry."

Xiangzi bowed deeply to the four people.

"Sakiko!"

Seeing Sakiko like this, Soyo couldn't help it, she hugged Sakiko and said, "Sakiko, it's okay, everything will be fine."

"Well, everything's going to be fine."

Wiping away his tears, Xiangzi looked at the four people in front of him: "Everyone, can you give me some more time?"

It was important to explain to his companions, but Xiangzi did not forget that there was something more important.

Touma Kazusa had already told her via text message that Ruyu had prepared a celebratory banquet and was now waiting for her to return.

"Sakiko, is this Mr. Sagiba's side?" Soyo immediately guessed what Shoko was referring to.

"Well, he's prepared a celebration party, soyo, and everyone, shall we go together?"

Gao Songdeng asked: "Hey? Is it okay?"

Toyokawa Shoko nodded heavily: "Well, let's all come together."

The celebration banquet will be delicious if everyone eats together.

Right, Lu Yu?

......

Everyone came to a huge mansion. When they opened the door, they saw a large table of exquisite dishes and various items that had been prepared long ago placed in the living room.

Streamers, delicacies, snacks, drinks, and turned-on lights. Luxurious and exquisite, everything for the celebration banquet had been prepared long ago.

The only thing is a little strange.

At home...

nobody.

Volume 1: Chapter 69 Goodbye, Toyokawa Shoko

"Heron Feather?"

Looking at the celebration banquet that had already been prepared, Xiangzi gently called Luyu's name.

no respond.

"Hey, Lu Yu, where are you?"

Walking to the table and looking around the room, Touma and Saya felt a little strange.

Did Lu Yu go to the toilet?

I looked towards the bathroom; the door was open and empty.

"Heron Feather?"

"Hey, Lu Yu!"

"Are you taking a break?"

"Wait a minute, I'll go call him. He stayed up late last night, so he should be catching up on his sleep."

After calling Ruyu's name a few times, Touma Hesa ​​went upstairs to the second floor and came to the door of Ruyu's room. Recalling Ruyu's somewhat strange behavior at the competition today, Touma Hesa ​​now understood. This guy hasn't recovered from staying up late last night, right?

"Hey, Ruyu, don't sleep anymore. Xiangzi and her friends..." Touma Kazusa said as he pushed open Ruyu's door carelessly.

"???"

However, after entering the room, I found that the room had already been cleaned.

Personal clothing, belongings, computers, and some other small items have all disappeared.

"???"

what happened?

Picking up the phone, Touma and Sahiro called Sagiba's number.

"Hello, the number you dialed is unavailable. Please try again later."

"????"

No number available? Did I dial the wrong number?

Taking out his cell phone and confirming that the number was correct, Touma Kazusa called again, but the result was the same.

No number available.

"????"

After walking out of the room, Touma and Sa returned to the first floor.

"Well, Xiangzi, please treat your friends to dinner first..."

As she spoke, she came to the door, changed her shoes and put on her coat. Noticing Touma Kasa's actions, Toyokawa Shoko asked, "Kasa-sister, what's wrong?"

"Nothing, Lu Yu seems to be out, and his phone is unreachable, I'll go look for him..."

"Is it turned off?"

"It seems...right?"

No number? Powered off?

Touma and Sa couldn't tell the difference, but it was clear that the call was not going to work. That guy, why was he running around at such an important moment? I'll have to give him a good scolding when I catch him.

"I'm so sorry, everyone. Please eat first." After smiling at Soyo and others, Touma Kazusa walked out the door.

After Touma and Sa walked out the door, the five people in the room looked at each other.

"Sakiko, did Ms. Kazusa go to see Mr. Sagiba?"

"It seems so..."

Lu Yu went out? If I go with Sister Sha to look for him, I think we'll find him soon.

Not noticing anything unusual, Toyokawa Shoko entertained everyone. Since Sagina, Touma and Kazusa, who were adults, were not there, she became the host. The celebratory banquet was already prepared, and her friends had come from far away, so she couldn't let anyone down.

I can't just wait here for someone, anyway...

Let’s celebrate a little first!

"Everyone, let's not wait for anyone."

Inviting the four people to sit down, Xiangzi smiled and poured each of them a drink. As Xiangzi's actions progressed, the atmosphere gradually became better.

"Sakiko, let me help you!"

"You are the guests, so let me do it."

"Sakiko, what are you talking about? We are best friends, right?"

Four drinks, three glasses of red wine. Although minors are not allowed to drink, if Toyokawa Shoko feels that she should be able to try a little bit of alcohol today!

"Although Mr. Sagiba and Ms. Touma haven't come back yet, everyone, today is the day Sakiko wins the championship! Cheers~"

"cheers!"

"cheers."

"Ah."

As a contestant who creates atmosphere, Soyo consciously becomes a host-like presence.

Soyo was very happy. After hearing the song Kasuga played by Xiang, she was really happy.

It seems to have been slightly adapted, but that is Kasuga Shadow.
