“Class A of Grade 3…Class A of Grade 3…”

Walking in the corridor, looking up and carefully counting the class cards, Nakagawa Shin stood out among a bunch of seniors in the third year of high school. Not only was the color of his tie different, but also because he was the only male student among all the students coming and going…

Last year, Yuqiu announced that it would be transformed into a mixed high school, and I heard that they admitted a gifted boy in the first year of high school last year, but for some reason, that gifted student didn’t come to school for a year… In fact, that gifted student was Nakagawa Nobuyuki.

Because Yuqiu has a long tradition of girls’ schools, almost no boys choose to study here. Therefore, Nakagawa Nobuyuki, who is walking in the corridor, naturally receives a lot of attention and discussion.

Suddenly, Nakagawa Nobuyuki stopped in front of the door of an ordinary classroom.

This is Class A of Grade 3…

On the way, Nakagawa Nobuyuki almost memorized the names and appearances of everyone in Afterglow, so there was no possibility that he would not recognize anyone.

“…Hello, senior, can you please call Uehara-san from my class for me?”

Nakagawa Nobuyuki immediately stopped a senior high school student who was leaving the classroom and asked in a gentle voice with an exceptionally businesslike customer service smile.

Uehara-san…is the captain of Afterglow, so at a time like this, we definitely need Uehara-san to sign first.

It should be said that the business model that he developed while working as a customer service representative has become a very important skill for Zhonghe Xin…

“…Oh, oh.”

At this moment, the short girl in front of him, with a dazed and slightly red face, turned around and went back to the classroom, which was the best explanation.

“Feimary, yes, someone is looking for you.”

At this time, Nakagawa Nobuyuki naturally looked at Uehara Himari, who was still holding a math textbook and had a confused look on her face.

…Yes, this is Afterglow’s Himari Uehara, I was not mistaken.

She searched quickly in her mind… Although she was a little confused, Uehara Himari still blinked her eyes and slowly walked towards the direction of Nakagawa Nobuyuki.

I don’t seem to know this boy either…

Uehara Himari was about to speak, but Nakagawa Shin would never let her speak first. Immediately, Nakagawa Shin put on a very sincere and enthusiastic attitude and said:

“Um… hello, Uehara-senpai. I’m a new transfer student to Class A of the first year… my name is Nakagawa Nobuyuki, you can call me Nakagawa or Nobuyuki… Anyway, good afternoon, senior.”

“I’m really sorry to bother you so suddenly…but…Uehara-senpai, can you sign an autograph here? I’ve always been a fan of Afterglow.”

As he spoke, Nakagawa Nobuyuki, who looked like a ten-year-old fan of Afterglow, handed over the blank notebook in his hands with both hands, naturally emitting a signal of expectation.

With this attitude, even Afterglow’s ten-year-old fan, Tatsuki Shiina, would feel ashamed of himself… this guy’s acting skills are really great.

“…Fans?”

Uehara Himari felt happy instinctively, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised in a cheerful arc, but then she bit her lips tightly as if she had thought of something.

“Ah.”

Nakagawa Nobuyuki thought that his reaction was too exaggerated and aroused suspicion, so he restrained his expression a little.

No…what if someone suddenly asks me what songs Afterglow has, wouldn’t I be doomed?

Although I could explain that I was asking for it on behalf of a friend… but that would definitely be embarrassing…

You know, the emotional value that [your fans asking for your autograph] and [someone asking you for your autograph on behalf of your fans] bring to people is different!

Thinking of this, Nakagawa Nobuyuki immediately recalled what Shiina Riki, a true ten-year old fan, had said at the time…

Calm down first and think about what Shiina would do…

What was Shiina watching at the time…what was the name of that competition…

“I also watched the GBT competition two days ago! Everyone’s performance was wonderful…”

“That…! Moka-senpai’s performance is very different from before. It’s… very confrontational!”

Fortunately, Nakagawa Nobuyuki has a good memory and can still remember what Shiina Riki said at that time…

“GBT… Thank you, thank you for your love…”

After hearing that word, her cheerful eyes dimmed slightly, and Uehara Himari forced a smile. It was really hard to imagine that this was the little sun-like Himari…

“But…we might…”

“…No, it’s nothing. Thank you for your love, Nakagawa-san!”

She shook her head quickly, interrupting the words she hadn’t said yet. Uehara Himari bit her pale lips tightly, forced a smile and said thank you.

There was a slight hesitation as I put pen to paper.

Swish swish.

However, he still signed in big letters on the signature board, as if nothing had happened.

“Thank you, Uehara-senpai. Um, I feel like Uehara-senpai is not very happy today.”

Nakagawa Nobuyuki took his notebook and thanked him in a clear voice… Of course, Nakagawa Nobuyuki also noticed that Uehara Himari’s expression was obviously not right.

…Could it be that Afterglow is actually a little bit taboo about signing autographs? Otherwise, why would he show such an expression when signing his own autograph… And Shiina Riki himself didn’t dare to come…

“No, nothing… nothing, I’m just a little tired lately… Haha, the exam is coming up soon, I must study math well.”

Realizing that she was almost exposed, Uehara Himari immediately shook her head. The dry smile on her face now looked even more embarrassed.

No matter how you look at it… having Uehara Himari tell her fans in person that “Afterglow is over” is… still too cruel.

“Thank you, Uehara-senpai…! By the way…what about the other seniors?”

Even though he knew there must be something fishy going on… but since they weren’t that familiar with each other, Nakagawa Shin had no reason to keep asking. Doing so would make him seem a little ungrateful. He just needed to play the role of a pure little fan.

“Everyone……”

Uehara Himari subconsciously clenched the gel pen in her hand.

Everyone, we should go to the rooftop to have lunch together now.

“Everyone… Tomoe went to the dance club, and Tsugumi should be in the student council now… I don’t know about Moka…”

“Lan’s words…”

Just as Uehara Himari said this, she was suddenly interrupted by a cold voice.

“…let me move aside for a moment.”

Nakagawa Nobuyuki and Uehara Himari were chatting at the door of the classroom, naturally blocking the entrance and exit.

At this time, the voice coldly asked Nakagawa Nobu to give way a little…

“Hello, Mizuki-senpai, I’m a fan of Afterglow… Can I get your autograph here–“

“No time.”

The girl with fiery red hair highlights put her hands in her pockets and said two words coldly. Without even glancing at the notebook in Nakagawa Nobuyuki’s hand, she walked out through the empty seat vacated by Nakagawa Nobuyuki.

The atmosphere was somewhat stagnant.

“…Um, Nakagawa-san, Ran is…in a bad mood today…”

Uehara Himari clapped her hands with a dry laugh and quietly made excuses for Mizukuri.

“…”

Nakagawa Nobuyuki stared at Mitakeran’s back silently for a few seconds, and suddenly, a unique smile appeared on his face.

“Um… Uehara-senpai, please be sure to talk to everyone in Afterglow. I’ve always wanted to collect everyone’s autographs…!”

While saying this to Uehara Himari with a smile, Nakagawa Nobuyuki clasped his hands together, his attitude becoming even more sincere.

“Tomoe-senpai and Tsugumi-senpai, if it’s not too much trouble… can I come next time?”

When Uehara Himari saw that Nakagawa Nobuyuki did not show any special expression because of Mitakeran’s indifference, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

…Lan, why do you do this?

“…No problem! I will definitely tell Tomoe and the others when the time comes…Um, Nakagawa-san, can you add me on Line…? When the time comes, I’ll send you a message when Tomoe and the others are free!”

Feeling a little apologetic, Uehara Himari pursed her lips and gently took out her cell phone.

“That’s great, thank you so much, Uehara-senpai…”

Ding.

Another Line contact was added to Nakagawa Nobuyuki’s phone.

PS.

The old group breaks in! ! !

The first is Afterglow, the master of flower arrangement, Mitakeran, who committed the sin of arrogance…

To be honest, I would like to call this the most strange and abstract bombing script, it is really weird.

But don’t worry, I have made arrangements for this! Don’t worry about abstract and unreasonable places!

Chapter 312: Lan-chan’s Signature Challenge~

…didn’t catch up?

Mei Zhulan, with her hands in her pockets, silently shifted her gaze and glanced back quietly at the corner of the corridor.

…It’s good that I didn’t catch up.

Not seeing the boy holding the blank notebook, Mizukami, who had been clenching her fists tightly, finally loosened her hands, leaned against the solid wall, and breathed a sigh of relief.

…Please, from now on, hate Afterglow… No, hate me… Then, even if you know we’re disbanding… you won’t feel sad, right?

At this moment, the originally rosy lips were suddenly clenched with pearly teeth, which lost their original blood color…

–

“…Then, I took Xinxin to find the music classroom, and then I saw Xiangzi playing the piano!”

Chihaya Aine gently put her knees together and talked seriously about how she, Nakagawa Nobuyuki and everyone else met.

On the other side, the silver-haired high school girl was still sitting alone in another corner of the rooftop, staring blankly at the distant sky.

Actually, there is really nothing much to say, but this is actually the common topic among everyone.

The first topic was actually Deng suddenly asking Xiangzi, “Why did you form a band with Xin after disbanding Crychic?”

If the former Toyokawa Shoko had been faced with this problem, he would have just turned around and ran away quickly… However, the Shoko now is no longer the Shoko of that time.

Therefore, despite the bitterness in her heart, Toyokawa Shoko still clenched her fists tightly and tried to reply with a smile.

“Light… Anyway, I don’t have the courage to answer that question yet… Can you give me a little more time?”

“… I, too, am grateful to everyone for their crychic…”

Then, the topic slowly went off track from here.

The first thing that happened was that the topic shifted to Nakagawa Nobuyuki… because Xiaodeng opened her eyes wide and asked Xiangzi expectantly:

“…Well, since Nobuyuki is in our band, can we continue to perform live together in the future?”

Who are you all? There’s no need to ask.

Toyotsuchikawa Shoko’s hesitation lasted only a few seconds…the next moment, an extra-vigorous nod became the best answer.

After that… I forgot what we talked about, anyway, the topic suddenly turned to how I met Nakagawa Nobuyuki…

“…At that time, Xinxin and I came over from that side and heard the music coming from this side. As soon as we opened the door… we saw Xiangzi-san.”

“At that time, I invited Xiangzi to play in a band… but Xiangzi looked super cool at that time…”

The pink-haired girl, who was holding the lunch box in one hand and chopsticks in the other, paused abruptly when she said this.

…Come to think of it, can I ask classmate Xiangzi about this now… ?

I have been curious about this before. According to Soyorin… Xiangzi came here because he was dating Xinxin, so why did he call Xinxin “Nakagawa”?

And, and, and! Obviously, Xinxin came here with me? Even if I’m really dating Xinxin… doesn’t this timeline match up at all?

…If it’s Xinxin, of course I can stop asking so many questions. I can’t make things difficult for Xinxin…But if it’s classmate Xiangzi, I still want to know why.

Blinking her bright grey eyes, Chihaya Aine squinted slightly, and suddenly put on an exceptionally innocent look, and asked Toyokawa Shoko in a low voice:

“…Wait, speaking of this…I remember that at that time, Xiangzi still called Xinxin “Nakagawa-san”…? Why did you change your name later?”
