From this day forward, I will take responsibility for myself and will no longer run away from it.
Even though the future is uncertain, I still want it—
"Hold onto your regrets too—"
【We also want to say——】x5, the emotions of the five people resonated at this moment, and the musical instruments played out their complex emotions to the fullest.
Music is the external expression of emotion, and at this moment, Ying01QiK is V(nine$) like`98, they are all they can do—
"You see, this choice was not a mistake." x5
"I feel alive...Alive."
"What have I protected, and whom have I hurt, that I've been able to live to this day?"
To find the truth in everything.
"A struggle against the absurdity of this world—"
“You see—”
"This choice was right—" x5
"Cause I'm still alive"
"(still alive)" x4
I feel alive with this pain.
Takamatsu Akira was breathing slightly out of breath when the audience erupted in thunderous cheers.
"Wow, that's amazing! Teng Teng, that's really amazing!" Aine excitedly grabbed Taro's arm, thrilled by her friend's performance.
"Thank you so much everyone!" Gao Songdeng shouted his thanks, bowed, and finally left the stage.
The audience's applause and calls for an encore were endless. But they still didn't stop their pace.
Backstage……
"We...did we do it?" Takamatsu looked at everyone uncertainly. "Just now...I felt like I could sense everyone's emotions or something..."
"Me too—!" Li Xi excitedly hugged Gao Songdeng's shoulder: "And, the performance just now was really amazing! I was so moved!"
"Thank you..." Gao Songdeng said softly, a little embarrassed, "I feel like... I don't remember it at all."
"Really, the light's back on." Xiangzi laughed, wiping away the tears on his cheeks.
"Hehe... Now I feel like I've come to like the lyrics of 'Lighthouse Girl' that reveal her inner thoughts."
"Thank you..." Takamatsu Akari said softly.
"Buzz..." Ruoye Mu felt her dress pocket vibrate. She picked up her phone, looked at it, and said to everyone, "Everyone, my brother is waiting for you backstage."
"Mr. Momoi?" Su Shi stood up straight, somewhat surprised. She was a little jealous that Momoi Taro always contacted Mutsu when he needed something. But after all, they were siblings, and there was nothing she could do about it.
"Hmm..." Wakaba Mutsu nodded.
"Alright, everyone, after you put your instruments away, let's go find Taro-senpai together."
Chapter Sixty-One, it's time to participate.
The audience erupted in thunderous applause as the girls finished their performance.
The blonde girl wearing a baseball cap couldn't help but smile when she saw Xiangzi's beaming face.
Let's applaud their wonderful performance.
"That's so nice... Shoko looks so happy." Misaka Chuka (the older sister) murmured as she looked at Toyokawa Shoko on the stage.
She couldn't help but sigh softly. Xiao Xiang, being with her would only bring her misfortune...
Is it really okay for me to be this selfish?
Misaki Hatsuka kept asking herself this question in her heart. When the curtain fell, she glanced at Momoi Taro, who was also in the audience, in the distance from the corner.
With another soft sigh, she took out her phone, snapped a picture of Momoi Taro's back, and then left the audience.
She knew it was time for her to leave.
So, Misaka Chuka lowered her baseball cap and turned to leave RiNG.
After a while, the Mygo members, having put their instruments away, finally came to Momoi Taro's side.
“Big brother…” Wakaba Mutsumi was about to say something when Momoi Taro waved his hand to interrupt her: “Wait until other people’s live performances are over before you talk to them—”
Hearing him say that, Ruoye Mu could only nod silently and stand beside him.
After the live performance ended, a group of people left.
"Tama, that live performance was really great!" Kasumi exclaimed excitedly, snuggling up to Takamatsu Akari. "And the lyrics! They were so moving!"
"Uh... thank you..." Takamatsu Akari said softly, and Kasumi hugged Takamatsu Akari without any hesitation, pressing her face against hers and rubbing against her.
Li Xi's eyes widened in shock. On one side was her senior, and on the other was Deng. She couldn't intervene because of her position, but she couldn't just stand by and watch either.
"Hey! Kasumi! Don't do that! Can't you see how upset other people are? And it's so embarrassing!"
Fortunately, just as she was thinking this, the blonde girl with twin tails pulled Kasumi out of the way.
"Is that so?" Kasumi looked at Takamatsu Akari, whose face was slightly flushed, with a puzzled expression, then turned to Tae: "What does Tae think?"
"Hmm..." Tae tapped her lips with her finger, making a thoughtful expression, and said, "As for me, no problem. Kasumi can hug me for as long as she wants."
"Huh? Why did the topic jump to this? Isn't this what we're talking about now?"
Group/Teasing ① Fin Liu Yiyi San Er Er Cuo Er “Yu Saki, how scary?”
"What's scary about it! It's you guys who are scary!" Arisa felt her blood pressure rising.
"Well, well~ let's get down to business first, okay?" Saya ran out to smooth things over, and Aine and Taro were used to it.
Arisa clicked her tongue almost imperceptibly, then put on a gentle, serious smile and said to Takamatsu Akari, "I'm sorry~ my Kasumi has caused trouble for everyone."
"No...it's nothing." Li Xi suppressed the urge to retort and looked at Momoi Taro: "Taro, you said you had something to discuss with us, what is it?"
"Regarding this matter..." It was Kasumi who spoke, gesturing to the chair over there, and said, "I see, let's sit down and talk about it slowly~"
As she spoke, she flashed a big smile, bringing the slightly tense atmosphere back to normal.
……
The entire Poppin'Party group, along with everyone from Mygo, plus Taro Momoi and Ayane Chihaya, sat around RiNG's table.
"Taro-senpai, could you tell us what you need to discuss with us?" After ordering, Xiangzi looked at Momoi Taro curiously. In her memory, her senior rarely told others that he had something to talk about.
"Actually, it's more like I wanted to invite you to discuss something in detail," Kasumi said slowly.
Taro frowned, crossed his arms, raised his chin, and said calmly, "I'll handle this."
Kasumi shut her mouth, and everyone else focused their attention on Momoi Taro. Taro said calmly:
"I called you all here not for anything else, but because our Dong Brothers group's live performance is about to start, right?"
"Yes! I'm all set to buy the tickets!" Xiangzi made no attempt to hide his excitement: "I'm already so excited for Desuwa!"
"Then you don't need to buy tickets anymore," Sha Ling said with a smile.
"What does this mean? Please explain it to me." Xiangzi looked at the other person in confusion.
"In other words, I intend to invite Mygo as the final opening act," Taro calmly explained his purpose in calling them over.
"Huh? Us?" Takamatsu Akari repeated Momoi Taro's words in a daze.
“Isn’t this a bit risky?” Li Xi said worriedly. “After all, I know that everyone from Afterglow, and Roselia… everyone from Poppin’Party will be attending that live event.”
"Can we...?" Lixi's concern stemmed from the significant skill gap between them. Taro shook his head slightly and calmly replied:
"Haven't you actually participated a few times already? Whether it's Afterglow or Poppin'Party, haven't you already performed together?"
"Just now, Takamatsu's lyrics really moved me deeply!" Kasumi reached out and took Takamatsu's slightly uneasy hand, placing it in her own palm.
“I really love the lyrics to Xiao Deng’s song.” She said sincerely, “So I’m really looking forward to performing with everyone from Mygo.”
"...Teng, what should we do?" Lixi looked at Gaosong Deng, waiting for her to make a decision.
"What do you all think?" Gao Songdeng instead sought everyone's opinions.
"I want to go!" Xiangzi slammed his fist on the table and stood up, extremely excited: "I absolutely don't want to miss the opportunity to perform with senior Taro."
“Me too…” Wakaba Mutsu said calmly, but her gaze was unusually firm: “My brother is my goal, so I don’t want to avoid it.”
"I agree too~" Su Shi smiled and raised her hand, frankly expressing her opinion, but she did not explain her reasons.
"Then... I'll participate." Gao Songdeng replied softly. If possible, she would like to write a new song first before going, but everyone is so enthusiastic. As for a new song, she can always find a way if she tries her best.
"Then it's decided~" Saya maintained her gentle smile: "Then, is it alright to have the band meeting tomorrow at noon?"
"Eh?"
Dong, in the final episode, I have to face it.
Takamatsu walked along the road in a daze, her mind still a little hazy from Sha Ling's last words.
"Then it's decided~ So, is it okay to have a band meeting tomorrow at noon?"
"me?"
Gao Songdeng stared blankly as he pointed his finger at his own nose.
“Of course~” Kasumi leaned in without any hesitation and said, “The little lamp is the core of Mygo, isn’t Mygo the lyricist?”
"The most important thing at tomorrow's band meeting is to work together to write a song that we can all sing together when we finish!"
"So, everyone who writes lyrics has to come." Kasumi's smile didn't bring Takamatsu any warmth; instead, it made her a little scared.
In the end, I vaguely agreed to it...
"Light, light!" Li Xi's voice brought Gao Songdeng back to reality. She opened her eyes and looked at Li Xi.
"Is the lamp alright?" Lixi asked, looking at the other person with concern.
