"The first day of the Asuka-senpai's vacation celebration meeting, now—start!"

Yoda Yuxi raised his cup and took the lead in shouting.

"Oh——!"

Asuka Saito was huddled in the middle of the crowd, holding his forehead, trying to make a happy appearance and clinking glasses with everyone.

Hongbai's busyness has come to an end a little, and she also has to fulfill the punishment decision of the operation at that time and take a break for a while. Fortunately, the operation was also regarded as retaining some leeway, and did not say the real reason with other members.

The external reason is a slight panic disorder of overstress - to be honest, Saito Asuka doesn't think it's completely made up.

When the news was announced in the group, many members were a little worried about her condition.

Yuki Tian is the most worried - I don't know why, since the last time I was at TBS, she felt that Asuka-senpai was a little weird, and she has been a little worried since then. Now, sure enough, she found out that she had psychological problems, which made her even more worried.

Therefore, originally Xiaoniao only asked her alone today, and having a meal together was a short goodbye.

But with Tian Youxi, he deliberately brought a few fourth-term students who had just finished recording music nearby, and they were all of the same age and were quite familiar, so they planned to hold a small farewell party together.

She wanted to use this form of a small dinner party to relax Asuka's seniors on the one hand, and on the other hand, she could also paraphrase her words and let her talk about her troubles.

- Azuka-chan, let's feel the vitality of young people!

……

The barbecue rattled, and Asuka Saito stared at the crackling oil flowers, a little distracted.

Young people are indeed energetic, and although most of them are just reaching the age of drinking, only Haruka Kaki can have a drink or two with them.

The other girls, although they were just drinking Calpis, seemed to have a feeling of "everyone is drunk if they are not drunk", and they soon let go very much, laughing and mingling.

In fact, originally, she and Yoda usually don't look like predecessors, and they always frolic together.

It's just that today, or lately, she hasn't been in the mood for a while.

One second he was still smiling and rolling in Sakura's arms with Tian Yuxi, and the next second out of the corner of his eye, he saw the little bird buying drunk alone in the corner of the table, and Brother Xizi on the side was also holding a cup on one side, not daring to come forward to talk, so he was half real and half pretended, making a drunken look, and rubbing against the bird.

"Asuka-senpai, why are you drinking alone-"

Saito Asuka was suddenly hit by a small piece of something, coupled with the chirping of warblers and swallows in his ears, his heart suddenly became a little nameless.

"It's noisy!"

Even if she drank very little, she was actually a little drunk, so she slammed the glass on the table with the strength of the wine, and after such a voice and a loud noise, the whole small box suddenly fell silent.

Yoda Yuxi was also awakened suddenly—she had never seen a bird like this, and she moved away from the bird with some embarrassment.

In fact, Asuka Saito himself was a little scared of himself, and he felt a little embarrassed when he looked at the juniors of the fourth phase with a frightened face and a face that he didn't dare to come out.

"I'm sorry... I'm a little drunk......" She suddenly felt like throwing up, stood up, and pushed open the door to the box.

"You guys play first, I'll take my leave first." Then he snatched the door out.

Rushing into the somewhat cold street, the bird clutched his knees and retched several times at the ground, and then breathed heavily as if he was deprived of oxygen.

- Breathing in the first breath of cold fresh air, the chill coming from her body reminded her that she ran out without a coat.

It's just that at this time, she was too embarrassed to go back to get it, so she could only hug her body and sit on the curb under the eaves.

The shop I chose today is in Sugamo, which is a well-known old people's area in Tokyo, and at eight or nine o'clock, it has become the most crowded place in Tokyo.

Asuka Saito sat in the corner with her knees crossed, tilting her head to watch the cars on the street, and the sound of a family arguing next to her made her a little dazed - not long ago, she was still in a warm barbecue restaurant, listening to everyone's laughter.

At this time, the sense of security brought by the corner of the wall and the loneliness brought by the cold hit at the same time. She suddenly felt something strangely funny, and poked at her own strange laugh.

- It's like a brief encounter between her and Qiu Yang, just a little bit when it's warm, and in the days that follow, she is preparing to rely on the peace of mind in this memory to finish the rest of the idol road alone.

But on New Year's Day, he was standing there, but he was talking and laughing with other girls, and she really didn't even have room to step forward and question.

From beginning to end, is you the only one who is sad?

So people really still don't like someone all the time?

"Hahahaha......" The little bird finally couldn't hold back, and still laughed out loud.

Laughing and laughing, tears fell down in large chunks - she finally collapsed, for so many days, she shrunk in a hard shell, and didn't tell anyone about herself, even, Mai, who seemed to know something from the operation, came to ask her, and she said that she just wanted to rest.

Asuka Saito sobbed silently, staring blankly at the flashing signs across the street.

Suddenly, as if he had made up his mind, he took out his mobile phone and skillfully pressed down a string of numbers.

The phone rang three times and was quickly connected.

……

……

Nana Hashimoto didn't finish the women's meeting at home, and it was almost nine o'clock. She always feels that she is not too young at the end of the party, and she will feel very tired if she plays a little late.

When she was slumped on the sofa, she suddenly remembered that when she was about to part today, Mai deliberately pulled her aside and whispered a few words.

……

"Nanamin, you have to be careful...... I'm really worried about you. ”

"Huh?" Nana Hashimoto was a little confused.

Mai Shiraishi nodded at Qiu Yang, who was on the side, helping Nanase Nishino and Erika Ikuta with their bags. He stood a little stunned at this time, and only nodded and shook his head mechanically in the face of the topic of pigeons and flowers.

"Did you say Qiu Yangsang...?"

Nana Hashimoto didn't understand, and then felt a little unimpressed.

"Don't worry about Mai, Qiu Yangsang is really single-minded about Asuka, and he won't have any thoughts about us, I can assure you."

Seeing that the other party didn't understand what he meant, Mai Shiraishi was a little speechless. She stared into the eyes of Nanami Hashimoto for a long time, and only gently hugged her forward, patting her back wordlessly.

"It's nothing, maybe I'm thinking too much, I just hope Nanamin can be happy."

- Forget it! Since Nanami hasn't realized it yet, let's let it be!

Nana Hashimoto didn't feel a little inexplicable, but she still hugged Mai Shiraishi very obediently and obediently.

"-Mai should be happy too!"

……

"なぜ人は人は人も目の前にある......"

Just as she was recalling Mai's words that seemed to be meaningful, the mobile phone rang suddenly, and she picked it up and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.

Basically, she knew her number, and there were always no strangers, so she answered with some confusion.

"Hello?"

“……”

There was no one on that side talking, only the faint sound of the wind and the sound of cars.

Normally, such a call is always suspected of harassment, and Nana Hashimoto would not hang up directly, but this time, a strange intuition made her not do it.

"Asuka-chan...?" Her voice softened.

"Nana Min ......" for a long time, and only then did a cry come from there.

……

The first phone call with Asuka was brief, except that Asuka Saito kept sobbing and apologizing, and seemed to be a little drunk, and some of the words didn't match the afterword, babbling about his recent sadness.

In the end, before hanging up, she tried very hard to pretend to be in a casual tone, and really just mentioned it in passing:

Qiu Yangsang ...... How is he lately......"

Nana Hashimoto was silent, she needed to tell Asuka that they were still having dinner together?

After a moment's hesitation, she said:

"Qiu Yangsang has also been very depressed recently, he knows the identity of Asuka's idol, and it is difficult to accept it for a while, but I will also try to enlighten him."

Hearing that Qiu Yang was very affected by his own affairs, Asuka Saito knew that this was very bad, but he still felt some psychological comfort.

"Then ...... Please, Nanamin. ”

Nanami Hashimoto didn't know what the weight of this sentence was, but he just agreed.

"Hmm."

"Today's call ......," Asuka Saito was a little speechless.

"I won't tell Qiu Yangsang." Nanami Hashimoto also knows it.

"Hmm."

……

I hung up the phone, and suddenly the phone received a message prompt again.

Nana Hashimoto didn't think it was a bird and something he wanted to tell her, so she picked it up and looked at it, and she was a little surprised.

"From Nanase Nishino: Nanamin, do you have any contact information about Qiu Yangsang, I may want to ask him some professional questions."

……

……

The bird hung up the phone, and suddenly a piece of clothing was draped over him, which brought warmth to the heating room at once.

When she turned around, she saw Youtian Yuxi, who was standing with some dodgy eyes, scratching her head and being a little embarrassed.

"That...... I let them go back through the other door, and I'm a little relieved that Azuka-senpai is going to come and see you......"

He Tian Yuxi was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to face the little bird that he might have provoked just now.

Moreover, as soon as he came out just now, he heard that Asuka-senpai seemed to be chatting with Hashimoto-senpai, and he didn't dare to disturb him. But by chance, I seem to have heard a lot of things that I shouldn't have heard.

"I—I didn't mean to eavesdrop...... I can pretend I don't know......"

Yoda was staring at the crack in the ground, moving her toes a little at a loss, and suddenly she was hugged by Asuka Saito.

"Woo woo woo yoda-chan ......"

Asuka Saito buried his head in Yoda's shoulder, as if he had finally lost his nerve in front of his juniors, and began to cry loudly.

"I didn't mean to hide it from you, Asuka, I also want to talk to you, I'll tell you all tomorrow, okay......"

"I'm not trying to kill you, but I really can't control myself, Azuka, I'm really sad, I'm so sad......"

Yuki Tian stretched out her hand with some effort, gently stroking the hair of Asuka's senior, and she felt unspeakably uncomfortable in her heart, she did feel that Asuka Saito was under too much pressure, but she didn't expect that there were factors other than work behind it.

"It's okay, it's okay, Asuka-chan isn't sad, okay......"

was comforting, and Tian Youxi also suddenly thought of an idea - she happened to go back to her hometown to rest for two or three days after a while, and it happened that Asuka could also go back with her, so she should take a period of vacation.

"Azuka-chan, do you want to go back to Shikashima with me?" She tried to ask.

"Hmm..."

Asuka Saito just whimpered softly, as if she was falling asleep on her shoulder.
