Band members, girls with fermented bean curd, step forward!

Page 7

A black cube was placed where Renna had just been sitting.

“Let’s go find her,” Chen suggested. This was a perfect opportunity to win over the little girl and get her into the band.

First, win over the little girl, then the little girl wins over Momoka, and a band is formed.

"Seriously, what a troublesome brat. I wish you were as easy to manage," Momoka retorted.

"Let's go, let's catch up with Nina, or it'll be too late."

Without responding to Tao Xiang's words, Chen led the way and ran out the door.

"Wait for me, I haven't changed my shoes yet!"

Finally, on a pedestrian bridge, they caught up with the water spinach clinging to the railing.

"Jingqin, you forgot your phone!" Chen shouted, panting, as Rencai turned to leave.

Rushing to her side, blocking her path, and preventing Nina from escaping again.

Chen took his phone out of his pocket and showed it to Rencai.

"Jingqin, I don't know what happened in your family."

Chen carefully stroked the prickly hair of this young lady.

"However, you bravely took your first step, and your courage and determination are beyond question, so there's no need to doubt yourself."

"I'm pretty much the same as you. I even came without a single penny. I relied on Sister Taoxiang for my meals today. Miss Jingqin is much more capable than me."

"Just like Momoka said, I hope to officially become friends with Ms. Iishi."

Chen handed Rencai's phone to her and extended this invitation to her.

First, affirm the older sister's experience, then vaguely mention your own experiences to help her empathize.

If this series of moves still couldn't appease the little girl, he was truly at a loss.

"No, no!"

Nina was very excited about Chen's approval.

In her eyes, Chen, who was a year younger than her, was braver to make such a decision.

Moreover, she was absolutely certain that his situation was even worse than hers.

After all, not having a single penny is not a situation that most people encounter.

"I would love to be friends with Chen!"

"Yes, I'm also very happy to be friends with Nina."

Rencai blushed slightly at Chen's direct change in address.

"He just called me by my name?! I guess Chen is from Donghuang and doesn't know the customs of the Sakura Empire."

"Yes, Chen, please guide me."

She didn't correct Chen's way of addressing her.

Chen, who was familiar with the customs of the Sakura Empire, didn't have many thoughts on this. He just felt that calling her "Miss Iishi" was too awkward, so he took this opportunity to change it to a more pleasant way of addressing her.

Tao Xiang, who had been watching the whole thing like a doting mother, gave Chen an approving look.

"Nina, I'm sorry. I didn't know your life and made that judgment about you... I apologize."

After Nina had been calmed down, she offered her apology.

"Hmm, it's okay... but why did Momoka-nee leave the band?"

Nina still hadn't given up on her questions.

"It's nothing, we just had a fight and parted on bad terms."

Momoka gestured helplessly for Chen and Rencai to follow her. It seemed that Rencai wouldn't settle down until she got an answer.

We talked as we walked.

Finally, they arrived at a small park, where the three of them sat down on the recreational facilities.

"When the group was about to disband, we talked about who would get the song. I thought I could write even better songs in the future, so I used that as a reason to leave the song to them."

Peach Blossom looked up at the starry sky, reminiscing about the past.

"Isn't he just a simple nice guy? But I still think you're really cool, Momoka..."

Nina found Momoka's reasoning somewhat amusing, but it also aligned with Momoka's expectations of her.

"A happy ending indeed!"

Seeing that Nina and Momoka had cleared things up, Chen stretched and stood up from the slide, ready to go home and sleep.

He remembered the way back, so he decided to go back to the house first. Although for a college student, staying up this late was just child's play.

However, for the first day of my transmigration, I was still quite exhausted.

He wanted to go back and properly sort out his feelings.

Suddenly, two forces came from behind Chen.

"Where do you want to go, Chen?"

Momoka's voice sounded somewhat dangerous. Turning around, Nina also glared at her new friend, her cheeks puffed out.

"Since we're already out, let's not go back tonight. Let's go to karaoke!"

She tightened her grip on Chen's shoulder.

"No, singing so late? I need to go home and rest! Besides, I can't sing Japanese songs, and you wouldn't understand Chinese songs anyway. I won't bother you, I'll be going now."

Chen's shoulders slumped, freeing him from Tao Xiang's clutches, ready to make a quick getaway.

Nina then grabbed his arm, preventing him from leaving.

"Young people should be energetic. Isn't staying up late normal? You've been enjoying your gossip, now it's our turn to collect the interest!"

"Corporal Rencai!"

"exist!"

"Exiting the prisoners, let's go to karaoke!"

"Yes, Commander Taoxiang!"

In the end, Chen was still brought to this karaoke bar. Looking at Renna and Momoka excitedly selecting songs, all he wanted to do was take a nap.

Although the singing in the private room was very loud, Chen still drifted into a half-asleep state.

Momoka was complaining that Nina only liked old songs, and expressed surprise at how Nina had come to listen to her music.

The two sang with great enthusiasm, but gradually, as their energy waned, soft snoring could be heard.

The two looked towards the source of the snoring and fell silent.

How can this person fall asleep in such a noisy private room? Is it some kind of superpower?!

It can only be said that anyone who has had experience at Donghuang High School can do this.

During breaks, no classmate will be quieter just because you're sleeping; you'll just go to sleep.

"Hey, wake up! Wake up!"

Tao Xiang shook Chen's shoulder helplessly.

"Huh? I wasn't asleep, you guys sang really well."

Seeing him subconsciously praise the peach flavor of herself and Nina, she felt both annoyed and amused.

Tao Xiang pulled Chen up and made him sit up straight.

"Alright, get up! You're already here, so sing one song!"

"Seriously, this is so troublesome..."

As Chen connected to the screen in the private room via Bluetooth, the intro to the song began.

His voice followed.

"The King of Fishermen still wants to remain the King of Fishermen~"

The harbor has vanished, its whereabouts unknown...

Hades 3 seems to be VIII Bartholomew's rework complete

The end of Chapter 6

The gradually brightening light pierced through the sun, which was obscured by clouds, bringing a sliver of clarity to Rencai's drowsy mind.

Where is she?

Looking at the unfamiliar room, it took her a while to process what had happened yesterday.

A gray cat darted into her line of sight and meowed at her as she woke up.

The moving company workers had already begun their work, moving the packed boxes to the trucks parked outside.

In the huge house, it seemed she was all alone; there was no sign of Tao Xiang or Chen.

There was a note on the table.

"Good morning. By the time you see this message, I'll have already left home. The moving workers should be here by now. I'm going to settle my wages from working here, and then take one last look at the places I left my mark in Kawasaki before coming back."

The guitar is for you. Actually, I wanted to give it to Chen, but he said it was better for you to keep this gift, so I left it there. Please accept the guitar. Ultimately, it's fine whichever of you uses it.”

Why must separation and reunion be so close?

A faint sadness lingered in her heart.

She took out her phone to check the time; the real estate agents should be at work by now.

Unfortunately, the weather turned bad; it started to drizzle on her way to get the keys.

The moving company that Nina had booked before arriving in Kawasaki had already arrived downstairs.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'll open the door now!"

She ran into the house and took out the gift that Tao Xiang had left for her.

"Give me the middle finger!"

Looking at the words on the guitar, she could almost see Momoka encouraging her.

No, I can't give up!

She came here because of Tao Xiang, and she knew that Tao Xiang didn't want to admit defeat either!

She picked up her blue and white guitar and rushed out of the room.

In the temporarily empty room, only her apology to the workers remained.

"You're really willing to give your guitar to Nina?"

Momoka was amazed by Chen's generosity; she couldn't understand how Chen could make such a decision to give away something that was considered a sacred relic by fans.

"Of course, there's something that only she can do; I've lost the ability to act impulsively."

They were at Kawasaki Station, and Momoka wanted to wander around, so she dragged Chen out of bed early in the morning.

At Chen's request, Qi Lin and Wu Si Liu Pa Qi Qi stayed there.

"Maybe Momoka will change her mind about leaving because of Nina?"

Tao Xiang was somewhat disdainful of Chen's words.

Only she knew how long it took her to finally decide to return to her hometown.

Besides, Nina hadn't even gotten up when they left, so how could they possibly find them?

The bright red coat reflected the restless nature of this country girl from Kumamoto who appeared in Chen and Taoxiang's line of sight.

She had searched every place she had visited the previous night, but received no response.

Her last hope rested on Kawasaki Station—the place where she first met Momoka and Chen.

Despite the rain, the Phoenix Kawasaki duo had already set up their instruments, and it looked like they were about to perform.

Mustering her courage, Nina rushed up to the two of them, bowed to their surprised faces, and then began to pour out her emotions.

"Momoka...Momoka! Going home now would be admitting defeat! If you admit defeat, it's really over!"
