"Aoki-san is quitting the idol team?"

After hearing Yui Hirata explain her intentions, Aoi Hoshikawa repeated her words and exchanged glances with the others.

"I think I've heard her talk about it before."

Li Wu recalled the last time they met Ryoko Aoki on the rooftop, and heard her leave a declaration that she would not be an idol.

However, at the time, he thought that it was just a casual and perfunctory lie in front of their group of "outsiders", but he didn't expect that it seemed to be serious now.

"You can't quit the team because you don't think you're a real partner, right?"

He muttered to himself, looking up to see Yui Hirata's expectant eyes.

“…… Do you want to come with us? Aoki is probably in the classroom now. ”

The other party is now calling by the full name of Ryoko Aoki, and it seems that he is indeed very serious about questioning the captain who suddenly announced his retirement.

If you leave it alone, I don't know what kind of mess she'll make.

It was the end of noon, and there weren't many people in the hallway of the school building, so that their makeshift group of five stood out.

From time to time, students passing by glanced back, especially Yui Hirata, who was a fresh face, and attracted a lot of curious eyes.

"Don't get into a fight with her outside."

When he walked outside the classroom, Li Wu found that the other three girls suddenly distanced themselves at the same time, and poked out three heads at the top of the stairs according to their height, looking lively.

This made him immediately have a bad premonition, and quickly reminded him.

"We're not going to fight!"

Yui Hirata quickly shook his hand and watched him enter the classroom of Class B in the first year.

As soon as he entered the door, Li Wu captured the line [Subhuman Race (Mimicry)] in all kinds of words.

He walked up to the blonde girl who was reading a book at the desk, and said in a tone that he had met by chance: "Aoki-san, I just saw your friend looking for you outside. ”

Ryoko jerked inward as if she was startled by his accosting, and then raised her head and looked around blankly, as if to make sure she was the other side of the conversation.

Since that little ...... at the Echo Cafe After the big party, she seemed to have been deliberately avoiding herself, and the last time she met on the rooftop, she controlled her gaze not to meet him.

Li Wu felt that he didn't have any murderous spirit to let everyone know the cold, and he could only understand that Ryoko Aoki was extremely worried that his alien identity would be exposed, so he was wary of him after the temptation in the café.

In short, he just helped Yui Hirata with a word, and after saying that, he walked back to his seat with a normal expression, and after a while, he saw Ryoko walking out of the door with a hesitant face.

Then there was a subtle sound of conversation, which gradually rose in tone and amplified in volume.

After a burst of movement of big beads and small beads falling on the jade plate, one party ran away with a whimper, and the other side came back with a cold face.

The classroom was filled with lively chats, as if no one had noticed what was happening outside.

"Everyone is quite gentle."

Li Wu sighed, "But isn't this still a quarrel?" ”

It's the first time he's seen someone in reality say an idol anime-style dialogue, what "what are we going to do with our dreams?" "Is the valley more important than me?" "A woman like you, I'm going to fix you!" ”

Oh, the last two sentences didn't actually say anything, it was the voice of Hirata who ran away for his tears.

After school, for some reason, Shiratori Maki was late as the president, and only the remaining four members were left to gradually become a sub-base of the Otherworldly Survival Preparation Club, and even a lot of personal belongings were gathered on the rooftop.

"So in the end they didn't make it?"

The disc sits cross-legged on a chair and rocks back and forth like riding a wooden horse, revealing smooth calves.

She rarely asked questions about topics that she didn't usually care about, and after receiving an affirmative answer, she sighed: "People can't fully understand each other. ”

"You're just here to say that......"

Sure enough, it is not easy to believe that the brain circuits of light will work properly.

As if waiting for them to talk about it, the door to the rooftop slammed open.

Ryoko Aoki walked out a little annoyed, and shrank back when she saw Li Wu.

"Thank you so much for your continued help."

She bowed first, "But please stop interfering in our internal affairs." Xiao Wei will not come here again in the future, if she still wants to force you to do something impractical, please refuse her directly. ”

After she finished speaking, she planned to take it to the rooftop door, and after thinking about it, she added: "There is ...... Well, when will you be able to use up the rooftop? ”

"We'll have to wait until we get revenge on the student council."

Hoshikawa Aoi subconsciously answered, and then reacted, "Wait a minute! Do you really want your idol to retire? ”

Hearing these words, Ryoko grabbed the door frame and switched her center of gravity back and forth.

"That's no way around it."

She squeezed out a feeble smile, "I can't sing anymore." ”

Can't sing it instead of not wanting to sing.

Noticing the difference, Li Wu asked, "What does that mean?" Do you have an aphonia or something like that? ”

It was clear that she was still able to speak normally, so Ryoko shook her head.

"It's not the physical symptoms, it's just that when I try to squeeze the music out of my throat again, the rhythm is disrupted and disrupted."

I don't know if she told her two companions about it, but now she showed a relaxed look when she talked to a group of classmates who didn't know much about it on the rooftop.

"It's like staring at a word for a long time, so much so that I don't know the familiar text. The familiar notes are now unfamiliar. I've sung the lyrics thousands of times and forgot how to sing them when they reached the tongue level—this kind of state will only create a lot of performance accidents, right? ”

It's obviously depicting the horror experience she has experienced, but Ryoko has no fear at all, and instead calmly narrates the reasons why she no longer wants to be an idol like a third-party audience.

"It sounds like it's a psychological symptom caused by nervousness and work stress."

Li Wu commented.

"If only it were that simple."

Ryoko retreated back to the stairwell in a daze, "But I know that's not the case, it's the price I should pay......"

By the time she said the last few words, her voice was almost swallowed up by darkness.

"What do you mean by price?"

"Classmate Li Wu, I think you should pretend not to hear it at this time."

Hoshikawa Aoi made the same complaint as Airisa before.

So it's so strange to say that these girls are not obedient, isn't it a virtue of conversation?

As a result, even Ryoko Aoki walked a few steps backwards as if she was frightened, and then turned around and ran away.
