After a day of chaos, it was not yet eight o'clock, but Osono Yang was already sleepy - he couldn't sleep at this time, and at night, there was an invitation from the mysterious man.

What he didn't know was that Miku Kanemura, who originally invited him, had no intention of attending at all due to various reasons at this time. And on the other hand, after accepting the favor this afternoon, she didn't dare to admit to Dayuan that she had asked him to meet on the rooftop in the evening, so she simply released the pigeons.

"-Hmph, let that guy go up and blow the cold wind for a minute, it's a small punishment!"

Xiao Sushi thought like this in his heart, and he was timid and vicious.

"-What are you doing...... The mysterious ......"

Therefore, after taking a bath, Da Yuanyang, who was still in the dark, said hello to a few friends in the second phase, and said that he wanted to rest early at night and went to the rooftop.

"......Uhh It's cold. ”

Now the season is already the tail of summer, and the night is very cold, and the hair is still wet, and the big garden shiveres as soon as I open the door of the rooftop.

"Who, such a mysterious place, you have to say something on the rooftop......"

Although he complained like this in his heart, to be honest, he could vaguely guess whose behavior was doing it - and sure enough, there was a figure leaning on the railing not far away, with his back to him, overlooking the neon night of Tokyo.

"- Tieshou, what's the ......?"

Da Yuanyang took the initiative to say hello as he walked closer. But it wasn't until he was only about a few steps away that he noticed that the "Hirate Yurina" in front of him seemed to have too long hair.

“…… Huh! ”

The other party seemed to be startled by his sudden voice, and let out a soft snort, which in turn startled Dayuan - what, obviously you asked me out, but it turned out to be like "how can there be anyone here".

However, this soft voice made him a little familiar.

Squinting his eyes and bringing his face a little closer, he recognized the identity of the girl in front of him. It's just that the slightly unexpected candidate made him a little afraid to confirm it.

—Nagahama...... Mulberry? ”

……

……

"Huh? I haven't dated you......"

"Ah, is that so......?"

This kind of denial made Osono a little confused - in this way, he was released by the pigeon, and then happened to meet Nagahama-san who was released on the rooftop?

At this time, he was only glad in his heart, and he didn't take off the guard of false voice when he mistakenly thought it was a tie.

"Poof......

Although he was suddenly frightened by himself and interrupted by himself to be alone, Nagabin Ningliu's voice was still gentle and soft, without any annoyance. At this time, she tilted her head and smiled shallowly at herself.

"It's always funny, like a boy picking up a boy...... Sauce you. ”

"What......"

I have to say that Nagahama-san is worthy of being able to make the operation of the existence of a group around her, and feel this soft response up close, even if she can't see her face clearly because of the night, but this wonderful sense of atmosphere has already made Dayuan's cheeks crimson.

What's more, she is different from other predecessors, not only remembering the nickname she used when she introduced herself on the show, but also calling out very easily.

- Is this the girlfriend power......

Osono suddenly thought that if he could ask Nagahama for a lesson or two, maybe his idol path would be smoother - after all, although he always talked about how to do it and implement it, he still had to please the rice as his first goal, right?

"-Yo-chan, are you also worried?"

The girl in front of her, as if she had acquiesced, what he just said "someone to ask" was a lie, and asked softly while looking at the distance from the railing again.

“…… I said I was asked to do it......"

Da Yuanyang looked at the girl's slightly messy hair blown by the summer night breeze that was slightly drying, and he was a little stupid, and he could only repeat it stupidly for a while. It took half a beat to catch the "small flaws" in Nagahama's words.

"—'also'...... Nagahama-san, is there any trouble? ”

When he asked this, he felt that he was abrupt - the other party was the senior in his own group, so it was too carried away to ask like this. Thinking of this, he hurriedly added.

"Sorry, I just ...... by the way"

"-Yang sauce was very active when he recorded variety shows, I watched it!"

The girl suddenly said this without a clue, interrupting his apology.

“…… Huh? ”

"The previous group is on the list."

She tilted her head again, smiled at him and added.

"Why do you suddenly say that......"

"There's nothing special, it's just that I thought of it suddenly, and then I said it."

Nagahama turned his back and leaned against the railing, looking up at the dark night sky—not to mention the stars, even the moonlight was dim.

"I always feel like I have a special feeling when I talk to juniors......"

"Hmm...... I think so. ”

Osono seems to have gradually gotten used to Nagahama's way of speaking - strange to say, when I saw her on TV before, I always felt that she was very organized and restrained, not like such casual.

However, it is probably just like what she said, the first time she faced a junior in the strict sense, and the first time she was a senior, she was also groping for the balance of getting along.

"The words of everyone in Kanji, because of the awkwardness at home when I was selected, plus the part-time job, it seems that I have not been able to integrate into the feeling - you also saw it...... Sorry for the smile you made in the lounge. ”

"No, no, not at all."

Da Yuan waved her hand, to be honest, if she hadn't mentioned it at that time, she would have forgotten about it if she didn't care too much about it.

“…… If you are with you on a peaceful holiday, it is clear that they are from the same generation, but they seem to be afraid of me, which also makes me ...... Not so natural. ”

When Nagahama said this, he smiled embarrassedly.

“…… So I thought, everyone in the second phase of the peace holiday should have no special relationship, right? It's just ordinary seniors and seniors, and they should be able to get along naturally. ”

"Well, definitely."

Changbin Ningliu's words, Da Yuanyang listened to it in his ears, and he was also a little distressed - the hard work of part-time work, he can understand it without having to say it in detail from his predecessors. It's just that......

"—I'm leaving."

“…… Huh? ”

Just when Dayuan was about to say a few words, similar to how we would comfort and comfort Changbin in the second phase of life, the other party suddenly whispered.

"Leave...... refers to ......"

He stammered in fright, on the one hand, he thought of bad words at once; On the other hand, he quickly realized, is this something he can know?

"Next month, I'm going to cancel the part-time job of Hiragana 欅saka and go full-time to the kanji 欅坂."

Nagahama Ningliu turned his face to look at him from the posture of facing the sky on his back, and the tear stains on his cheeks were very clearly glowing with colorful light under the glow of neon.

"If nothing else, everyone will be notified in a few days."

"How could it be ......?"

Osono Yang was a little dumbfounded, and he didn't know how to interface for a while, shouldn't he be, the first one in Hiragana?

Soon, he began to think about it again, what should the Hiragana Sakazaka that was established for Nagahama-san go after Nagahama-san left?

“…… Hiragana Akizaka will still exist after that, and I've confirmed this with the operation repeatedly. ”

The girl seemed to see through his thoughts, and added softly, her voice slightly choked.

"Although, knowing that I have just recruited someone, I also want to go down with everyone, but because it is really difficult to juggle it...... So, I'm sorry. ”

She bowed to him very standardly, such an apology, Osono Yang also understood, probably the matter of staying in the kanji 欅saka should be Nagahama-san's own choice of "choosing one of the two" - but this is also normal, who would choose them as the underdog.

"Nagahama-san doesn't have to ...... like this"

Da Yuan hurriedly gently supported the girl - not to mention that there is no need to apologize, even if he needs to apologize, it should not be himself who should accept this apology.

"I may be overbearing when I say that, but it's okay...... It's been a hard year. ”

These words seemed to puncture the girl's tear ducts at once, and she held back, but still opened her arms towards him, trembling her lips, and said softly, "Is it okay?" ”

Then, the moment he nodded, he threw himself on the shoulder and sobbed with restraint.

"I, I'm not ...... It's just that I think everyone in the second phase is really great, and I think it's okay to ......."

"Alright, alright......"

Listening to Nagahama's fragmented explanation, although Osono Yang was a little difficult to empathize with and confused, he also gently patted the girl's back and comforted softly.

Nephrite was warm and fragrant in his arms, feeling the softness of the girl pressing on his chest, coupled with the wisps of incense that drilled straight into his nose, he was difficult to suppress, and reacted slightly, so that he could only pout his ass slightly, bearing the girl's weight in a funny posture.

"Hey! Isn't that good...... It's obviously ...... in this atmosphere."

He didn't know who he was talking to, but he was shaking wildly in his heart.

“…… Yikes! ”

When Nagahama wanted to let go of the hug and get up, he subconsciously held on, probably because of the unstable center of gravity, and the two of them went forward and backward, and one was about to fall to the ground.

"-Danger!"

Almost instinctively, Da Yuanyang reached out and dragged the girl to him to protect her. I landed on my back - but fortunately, there was a slight cushioning movement, and there was no sharp pain in my back.

“…… Nagahama-san, are you alright? ”

Looking at Changbin Ningliu, who fell in his arms, with an embarrassed face, his expression was a little wooden at this time, staring at a place in a daze, Dayuan thought she was stupid, and hurriedly asked out loud - if the team's big top is smashed into dementia, it will be difficult for a newcomer to redeem himself......

"Eh, Yo-chan, you're ......"

Her expression grew horrified, and she pointed to the ground.

“…… I? What's wrong with me? ”

Dayuan followed the girl's gaze, only to realize that his wrist on the ground was twisting in a strange shape—exactly where he had been clutched this afternoon.

Immediately afterward, there was a sharp pain, which slowed down by half a beat.

"Pain, Pain, Pain, Pain......"
