Chapter 233 Try to work hard towards something that you don’t even know whether you love!

 "Happy, do you want to do it?"

"Ah, there is no other way but to do it."

"But, this is my first time..."

"Me too. But there is no way, this is something that has been decided, and this is not something you proposed on your own initiative?"

"Happy, too much."

"Why did I go too far? I obviously agreed to your request."

"But why did Le have to agree last night?"

"Because I made my decision at that time, and my uncle agreed after knowing it."

As he talked, Kanbaru couldn't help it any longer, and asked the plain little face of Amami Zhixue at the other end of the dining table: "By the way, why are our conversations so strange? We are not discussing how.

Recruiting people for the band?"

"I'm talking about the band, it's really weird."

"..."

Kanbaru Raku didn't intend to keep the topic on this meaningless joke for too long. Recently, Lao and Amami Zhixue sat together to eat in the cafeteria at noon. Many classmates were already speculating whether he was a scumbag.

He continued: "So, when it comes to this, our division of labor is clear, right? In order to successfully form a five-member band, Zhixue, you go pull A Ling, and I will handle Jiuliuli and Qi Mingyue."

"Hmm."

"Any questions?"

"Le needs to take care of Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu at the same time. Can the body bear it?"

"You have to eat even if you can't bear it."

"Can it really be tolerated?"

"..."

*

The end of the term is approaching.

I will officially enter the second grade in April.

Club activities are closed, two classes will be added in the afternoon, and the entire school is fully prepared for war.

Kagura Raku doesn't have to worry about any problems with his grades. After all, he has never fallen out of third place since the first month of this semester. Except for the two top-level players Tianhai Qimingyue and Tianhai Jiuliuli, he has always been stable.

Ranking among the top three.

When walking on campus, people often say hello to him.

Most of them are girls, and they often say hello "Kamihara-kun" or "Kamihara-san" with a smile.

Kanbaru can feel the other person's gaze on her, and the feeling of wanting to talk but not daring to do so.

Why?

Is it because I insist on running at noon recently and gained a lot of fans in school?

This made him always hear Tianhai Qimingyue venomously talk about him when he met Tianhai Qimingyue by chance in the student corridor in the afternoon: "When the influential person on campus comes in front of me, I don't even know how to open my eyes for reading."

Kanbaru didn't want to always get used to Qi Mingyue's bad temper, and he didn't offend her.

Besides, he didn’t even know what he had done.

"Isn't it the beginning of the month yet?"

"At the beginning of the month? Don't worry, I've taken good care of my menstrual period, and I'm still waiting for you to buy me new sanitary napkins."

"A girl who wants me to buy two packs of sanitary napkins a month, Qi Mingyue, do you think she has an endocrine disorder?"

"It seems like you don't have any physiological knowledge. About 15 tablets is normal. During the days of menstrual period, you have to change one tablet almost every two to three hours."

With such a large amount of bleeding, no wonder Qi Mingyue didn't feel right in those days.

I have a bad temper.

"Brother, do you understand why some men are annoying?"

"Huh?"

"It's because most men think that only women have endocrine disorders," Tianhai Qimingyue raised her eyes, "In fact, men have much more serious problems than women. They generally suffer from adrenal gland disease, leading to infertility."<

/p>

...Do you think I don’t know that women can be infertile?

Tianhai Qimingyue seemed to have seen through what he was thinking, and then said: "Infertility is the second most important thing, and the most important thing is that it will lose its function."

She also specifically looked down on Yuan Le's pants.

It’s true that every time I talk to Qi Mingyue, I get really angry at her venomous tongue.

But she has a wide range of knowledge, and I can't even compare to her.

Kagura Raku doesn’t want to talk about endocrine disorders with her anyway.

No matter how venomous you are, are you still my girlfriend?

Tianhai Qimingyue let go of the hand holding the book, held up the gold-rimmed glasses with one hand, and moved her hair behind her ears: "I heard that someone always eats alone with a girl at noon recently? It smells good, right?

?"

Kanbaru finally understands why Qi Qiu wants to venom at him.

Vinegar jar...

Just a little jealous...

"I was talking about business."

"We talk about business in aunt's bedroom every night? Is there someone who is not satisfied with being my brother?"

Kanbaru knew that Qi Mingyue was just making excuses. How could he go to someone's room every day? Even if he did, he would just ask about the video editing.

I have to say...jealous women are really scary.

"What do you think?" Kanbaru asked with a smile as she tapped her shoulder with her fingers.

"If you have any evil thoughts and want to stab you in the back, I won't be the first one."

Tianhai Qimingyue said a simple sentence, ended this topic, and walked towards the teaching building.

Kanbaru watched her confident figure disappear around the corner of the stairs.

No more chatting?

He hasn't found a chance to talk about the band yet.

But it’s okay, Qi Mingyue was originally scheduled for later.

Let’s get Jiuliuli in first.

Kanbaru thought about this and walked in the opposite direction.

......

The next day.

In mid-December, which was only a week away from Christmas, at five o'clock in the afternoon, the sky suddenly cleared up. The blue sky, which had not been seen for many days, made me feel much better.

During school time, many female students held books, chatted with their friends, and walked towards the school gate with smiles. They had clean long hair, slightly rippling pleated skirts, and schoolbags and shoulder bags of different sizes.

In addition to the girls showing off their youthful and beautiful legs under their pleated skirts, the corridor was also filled with the laughter of boys hugging each other and secretly observing who among the girls was more beautiful.

It seems like all the stress accumulated throughout the day has been released.

After sorting out the books on the noisy campus and carrying his shoulder bag, Kambara stepped onto the student corridor outside the classroom. At the door of the classroom, he said goodbye to Nishijima and Fujino and walked out of the teaching building.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

The cold winter wind and sunshine hit the face at the same time, making people feel so comfortable that they couldn't help but pull the scarf around their necks.

This action also made the girl's fragrance on the scarf enter the nose.

Kagura Raku glanced at the scarf around his neck.

It is said that the fabrics given by girls have an inexplicable fragrance, and now it seems that it is indeed the case.

After walking out of the school and passing through the ginkgo slope in front of the school gate, Kanbaru entered a book cafe.

The heating in the store made him consciously loosen the zipper of his coat, and he soon saw Tianhai Jiuliuli smiling at him from the innermost side of the window.

"Ruri is here so quickly, five minutes earlier than the agreed time." Kanbaru untied his scarf and coat, put them on the backrest of the seat, pulled out the chair, and sat down in front of Tianhai Jiu Liuli.<

/p>

"I came here in advance and ordered two cups of coffee." Tianhai Jiuliuli smiled and pushed the cup in front of him towards Kambara.

If you look closely, you can see that it’s Kambara’s favorite flavor.

"Liu Li looks very happy? What happened?"

Tianhai Jiuliuli showed him another small note that came after payment, which said payment was 0 yen.

"Yesterday you said you wanted to go out to review your homework alone, so I took a look at this store. They happened to be doing an event, and Lejun's cup of coffee is free."

"Free coffee?"

"Yeah."

Jiuliuri is not short of money at all, and he is not happy at all because he saved more than 1,000 yen.

The reason for her happiness is another.

She will only be happy because he took the initiative to ask her out.

"It's just about going out and sitting alone, don't be so happy..."

"Eight...ga."

Kagura Le, who was suddenly scolded as "idiot", couldn't help but look at Tianhai Jiuliuri, who had a slight resentment on his face.

I just heard her say with some dissatisfaction:

"Lejun, don't you think about it, how long ago was the last time we went out alone...?"

Last time?

The last time seemed to be before A Ling’s birthday.

It's been almost a month, and the date was interrupted by Qi Mingyue.

......

No wonder Jiuliuli felt a little complaining.

"Well...this is indeed my fault. Does Liuli need my compensation after returning home?"

"Compensation for what?"

"Of course I'm going to help you squeeze your shoulders, legs, and feet."

"It's all embarrassing things..."

"Why is this embarrassing?"

"Isn't it shameful to have your feet pinched? Do you have to...take off your clothes to be ashamed...?"

"Why did you suddenly talk about stripping off? Is there any connection?"

When Kambaraku answered like this, Tianhai Jiuliuli realized that the more he thought about it, the more he went wrong.

After realizing that he was smiling on purpose, I glanced at him complainingly, and tangled my hands in front of the pleated skirt, making a slight squirm.

"Will Liuli be tired outside like this?"

"Huh?" Tianhai Jiuliuli stirred it twice with a silver spoon and was about to drink coffee.

"Just maintain your gentle image to the outside world. I saw you chatting with other students yesterday afternoon. You were very confident and had a perfect image in front of them."

"Ah? Well... there are some." Tianhai Jiuliuli's eyes suddenly became evasive, and the silver spoon stirred the coffee in the cup.

"The real Jiuliuli is actually a girl who gets jealous easily, right?"

"If Lejun knows... he should talk less to Qi Mingyue..." Tianhai Jiuliuli seemed to have breath in his mouth.

"One more thing is that Liuli is not very frank sometimes. Just tell me when you are jealous. Why do you have to wait until now?"

Kagura Raku held one of her little hands, and the touch was more delicate than a hard-boiled egg.

"...I didn't say you could hold it..."

"Wouldn't it be nice to think of it as your reward for me?"

Tianhai Jiuliuli blushed and retracted her hand in a panic. After experiencing an awkward moment of being at a loss, she closed her eyes and straightened her waist to adjust her mentality.

Kanbaru patted the seat next to him and said, "Liu Li, come sit here."

"Huh?"

"Come and sit here with me."

"...What does Lejun want to do...? This is outside..." Tianhai Jiuliuli raised his head and glanced at the coffee bookstore, observing the surrounding environment.

"Liu Li, just come here." Shen Yuanle just re-invited Jiu Liuli again.

Tianhai Jiuliuli doesn't know his specific purpose, but if you want to ask if you want to sit next to him, then you definitely want to.

So the girl looked around for a few times to make sure that no one around was looking at her. Tianhai Jiuliuli sat next to Kamihara Le. She lowered her head slightly and lifted the flaxen hair next to her ear with her hand.

Revealing a side face as beautiful and delicate as glass.

"What to do...?"

Tianhai Jiuliuli wore black stockings today. She is already very tall, and her legs revealed straight and smooth lines under the pleated skirt.

"Why do you say it so strangely?"

Kanbaru Raku really didn't want to do anything bad, but Tianhai Jiuliuri himself acted like he was going to do something bad.

My face is red and I don’t dare to look at anyone.

"Ruri, can't you relax a little?" Kanbaru turned around, opened her shoulder bag, and took out the teaching materials.

Tianhai Jiuliuli shook his head: "Isn't it because Lejun asked me to sit next to you before, either to kiss or to hold hands..."

"That's what happens when I ask you to sit on my lap."

"There's obviously someone sitting next to me!"

Kanbaru laughed and put the textbook on the table and said, "I've always felt that Liuli is particularly cute when she's angry."

"I won't be happy with such a compliment..."

"But you're actually very happy, right?"

Tianhai Jiuliuli was exposed, and her heart skipped a beat in embarrassment, "...it feels like every time Lejun says I'm cute, it's when he wants to kiss me."

"Why are Liuli thinking so much? I asked you to sit here just so you could review your homework with me. You don't really want me to kiss you, do you?"

"...No."

"It's not cute not to be candid."

"There is no..."

"...Okay, okay, Liuli, you're right." Finding her glaring at him, Kanamehara quickly agreed to her idea.

Tianhai Jiuliuli answered hurriedly beside him, seeing him reaching out to take his teaching materials to his side.

The girl inexplicably noticed his profile.

It seems that he has become much more handsome...

‘Lejun has been exercising recently, right? Will your figure get a lot better? Will you feel more secure when you hold her in your arms?’

Tianhai Jiuliuli didn't know what she was thinking, and her face lowered again.

Kanbaru spent a long time sorting out the lessons to be reviewed today, and suddenly found that Tianhai Jiuli was still in the same state of red ears, so he asked:

"Could Liuli be thinking, 'It's okay to kiss me when you get home'?"

"...No way." Tianhai Jiuli's ears turned even redder.

"Liu Li likes kissing so much?"

"No, no!" Tianhai Jiuliuli closed his eyes and pushed Kaname Yuara's face away. This time, he probably had a little more strength and pressed Kaname Yuara's head against the glass window.

"..."

My girlfriend is a bit strong.

"Hug, sorry."

"It's okay, let's review first. Your grades at the end of this semester will determine your class placement next year."

"Yeah, okay."

Tianhai Jiuliuli is definitely a person who makes a clear distinction between business and private matters. Once he enters the learning state, he enters the meticulous recognition mode. If some over-the-top topics are involved, the two will discuss with each other for a while and jointly give their own solutions.

Then compare them with each other and unpack the problem-solving ideas step by step.

She is very patient and can express her opinions clearly every time. If Kanbaru makes a mistake in any step, she will remind her tactfully and then give her own method.

"Like this question, the quadrant is expressed as..."

Kagura Raku feels like she is a girlfriend, a teacher, and a sister.

With such a patient girlfriend, we can make progress together and learn together.

There's nothing more comfortable than this, right?

After studying for an hour and a half like this, not to mention that he had already refilled two cups of coffee, Kanbaru almost forgot about the real thing

Tianhai Jiuliuli was still immersed in studying, "Cukawa Hakumura's most famous work is "The Symbol of Depression" and he also wrote "Modern Views of Love". He is an absolute critic of the traditional concept of marriage, and he also dared to criticize the backwardness of past society.

So labeling him as a feudal scholar is a fallacy..."

"Liu Li," Kambaraku interrupted Tianhai Jiu Liuli and put away his pen, "Let's take a rest first. It's almost seven o'clock."

Tianhai Jiuliuli put down the pen in his hand and looked at the sky. It was indeed almost dark.

"Okay, it looks like it's almost time to go home."

The two of them packed up the textbooks they had studied, paid the bill, and walked out of the bookstore.

......

Under night.

Kanbaru Raku and Tianhai Jiuri were walking on the street together, her pleated skirt swaying slightly beside her.

"Liu Li."

"Huh?"

"Actually, there is one more thing I want to say to you today."

"What?"

"Let me put it bluntly, I want to get you into the band."

"Band?" Tianhai Jiuliuli expressed confusion.

"Yes, the band." Kanbaru smiled at her gaze, "How about it, do you want to join our band?"

"When did Lejun join the band? Piano? Or orchestra?"

"No, it's a newly formed rock band."

"Is it related to my aunt?"

"Well, Zhixue is the founder, and I am the second to join."

Tianhai Jiuliuli only felt strange, "Why did my aunt suddenly want to start a band?"

"Ah, well, you know, she is the kind of person who likes rock music very much, so it's not surprising that she suddenly said, 'Let's create a band together!'"

"It's weird..." Tianhai Jiuliuli commented in a low voice, "But it's true that my aunt likes rock and roll. She has been learning it since very early and insists on it every day. She probably hid her desire to create a band.

My true thoughts for a long time."

"But why did Lejun join this band?" Tianhai Jiuliuli asked again.

"This is a long story."

......

Kanbaru explained as he walked, telling Tianhai Jiuri one by one what he understood yesterday - his passion to find a path through the band, to feel love, and to feel the motivation to work hard.

"I understand..." she said after listening carefully.

"How about it, Liuli? You can come too. We can perform together and practice together in the audience. It doesn't matter even if we are rejected by the world. We will work hard together until we are recognized by the world."

After Tianhai Jiuliuli heard this, she picked up the shoulder bag that was hanging in front of her skirt. She raised her sky-blue eyes that were shining brightly under the street lights and looked into the sky.

"Well, what Le Jun said just now makes me feel very much. If you stick to a certain path or something... you will have an idea of ​​​​joining, so——"

"So...?" Kanbaru waited for her answer.

"I refuse."

"..."

Kagura Raku was surprised by Tianhai Jiuliuri's answer.

Tianhai Jiuliuli smiled, her streamlined flaxen hair shining brightly under the light, and she said: "In Lejun's vision, he must be pulling everyone over, right?"

"That's right."

"Then Lejun must want to recruit Qi Mingyue to join the band, right?"

"Definitely."

Tianhai Jiuliuli withdrew his gaze and looked squarely at the tree shadows stretched by the street lights not far ahead:

"So, Lejun, I have no reason to join... In recent days, I have been trying to deal with the relationship with Qi Mingyue in life, but the more I get along with Qi Mingyue, the more I realize how much she hates me.

...It’s right for her to hate her sister. After all, I took away a lot of things from her since she was a child, and——"

Tianhai Jiuliuli's eyes were focused on Shenyuan Le:

"I took away the thing that she valued most for more than ten years."

After a while, Tianhai Jiuliuli continued to walk forward with her head lowered, as if she had not said anything just now.

Guilt, hesitation, reluctance, and not wanting to admit defeat to her sister... Kanbaru saw these emotions from Tianhai Jiuliuri.

Jiuliuli has definitely relaxed her attitude toward Qi Mingyue.

——This is something Kanbaru is sure of.

It is also the only effect of asking them to go for a morning run together.

Kanbaru did not immediately persuade Tianhai Jiureli, but waited until she walked to a food stall selling hand cakes and asked her if she wanted to eat something first. After receiving a definite answer, he ordered another hand cake for her.

Wait, while continuing:

"Jiu Liuli told me before that she wanted to get along well with Qi Mingyue in life, right?"

Tianhai Jiuliuli was silent for a long time, then looked at the stall owner packing hand cakes, and replied in a low voice: "Yes, and I have tried it, but Qi Mingyue doesn't want to reconcile with me, not even a little bit."

"How does Jiu Liuli see Qiming Yue? Now." Shen Yuanle took out the money, took it, and handed it to Tianhai Jiu Liuli.

"I don't know what to say either."

Tianhai Jiuliuli held the hand-made pancake filled with meat and intestines in both hands, and the lights of the vehicles driving on the street on the right made the green hair around her ears shine brightly.

Not only the hot breath exhaled from the mouth, but also the thin down on the girl's cheeks are reflected clearly.

After the girl took a careful bite of the hand cake, she continued to whisper:

"Qi Mingyue...Lejun, I don't want to give you up to her, Lejun, but I do want to be sisters with her...at least, not to be so quarrelsome. After seeing each other when we got home, we both

It’s the indifference of turning a blind eye.”

The dispute between Qi Mingyue and Jiu Liuli.

In the end, Jiuliuli was the first to be convinced.

Maybe it’s because Jiuliuli couldn’t talk to anyone but herself at home.

Qi Mingyue is used to being alone, but Jiu Liuli is not like this.

"So Liuli-chan still wants to reconcile with Qi Mingyue, even if it's very little."

"Hmm."

"But you consider that there will be various factors in the band, and because of my relationship with Jiu Liuli, Qi Mingyue will become even more unhappy when she joins the band and sees us staying together - Jiu Liuli, you are afraid that we will further irritate you

Seven Bright Moons."

"Lejun turns out to understand my thoughts..."

Kanbaru took away his portion of the hand cake, left the stall with Jiu Liuli, and continued talking after walking on the street:

"You don't need to worry about this Jiuliuli at all. You have to understand that if we maintain a relationship on the surface, we are already irritating Qi Mingyue. If she wants to fight with you, she will definitely be mentally prepared accordingly."

"Lejun is saying that Qi Mingyue won't be hurt more just because we are in the same band? I'm afraid that our actions will make her uncomfortable. She is a jealous person to begin with."

"Then let's be more restrained. And Jiuliuli, you really don't need to take this too seriously. Didn't you say that you won't soften your attitude when it comes to feelings? So show your identity as your girlfriend in front of Qi Mingyue.

On the contrary, this is your legitimate reaction. Qi Mingyue can't beat you, doesn't that mean she has no ability?"

"Lejun is right..."

"Ahem, that's a bit too much, but it's true. Liuli, didn't you say that love and life should be separated as much as possible? You and Qi Mingyue are rivals in love, but they may still be good sisters in life. It's like they cherish each other.

The opponent is average."

Tianhai Jiuliuli hesitated, "I don't know if I can do this myself."

The two of them walked onto the overpass, and the neon lights and advertising photos of Shirogane Takanawa Shopping Street were colorful.

"Jiuliuli, not knowing whether I can do it is not a reason for rejection."

Tianhai Jiuliuli glanced at Kaname Yuara's determined face.

"It's because I don't know if I can do it, so I have to do it! If I don't do it, who knows if I can't finish it? It won't help if I keep wandering in confusion."

"...then Lejun, can you explain why we want to join the band."

"Be firm in your beliefs."

"Huh?" Tianhai Jiuliuli blinked.

"You and I are both people without any goals, let alone any way forward. Try to think about it, how long has it been since the last time we said we would try to find our goals at this stage?"

"It's almost three months."

"That's right, Jiuliuli, it's been almost three months? And what are we doing now?"

"Just...just spending every day."

"That's right, we can't find the direction in the confusion. We obviously have time to be confused, but we don't use this time to actively try something we haven't touched before. This is like the 'Emperor's New Clothes'. We are doing it in the same way

Use your own unique right to deceive yourself.”

Tianhai Jiuliuli listened carefully to his firm words.

"A road is placed in front of you, and you have no direction, but you are still hesitating whether to participate?! Do you want to participate?! This is so ridiculous! They say we are looking for a goal, but at the end of the day, we are just where we are.

Step!"

Kanbaru smiled lightly, and his calm words revealed inexplicable confidence and determination.

He stopped, and Jiu Liuli also stopped.

"And we should not be the 'Emperor's New Clothes', but should have the courage to face the true self. Instead of letting ourselves live in the 'Emperor's New Clothes' that is whitewashed by lies and false excuses, it is better to face our naked selves. What?

I don’t have any...and then I bravely take the first step towards the unknown, even if I may be laughed at, even if I don’t even know whether I love this path."

On the overpass with air-conditioning and neon lights in December, with colorful billboards reflected behind him, Raku Kambara stretched out his hand towards the girl:

"So, Jiu Liuli, in order to stop ourselves from being confused, and in order for us to find what we want, let's try to borrow this band, a thing that we don't even know whether we love, and work hard towards the Tokyo Budokan

!"
