Omnibus Anime: A Person in a Music Anime, Relaxed and Happy

She actually snuck up here to wait for her, really.

Yui Hirasawa's lips curved upwards.

When did Little Qiu become tsundere?

A swift gust of wind blew past Yui Hirasawa's ears, lifting her bangs.

"Ah, it's Yui. I'm in a hurry right now, goodbye!"

Yui Hirasawa looked behind her; the hallway was already empty.

"An... earthquake?"

Goto Hitori looked up, muttering in confusion.

So she decided to poke her head out to see what was happening.

However, two sets of hurried footsteps sounded from above the stairwell.

Goto Hitori was terrified.

She quickly retracted, then trembled in unison with the stairs.

Goto Hitori hugged her head, praying, Don't see me, don't see me...

Why was she hiding in a place like this?

Didn't she already form a band and should be practicing happily with her bandmates right now!

As expected, what happened a few days ago...

was all her delusion!

Thinking this, Goto Hitori fainted.

In the blink of an eye, Takamatsu Tomo was the first to run out of the school building, with Bai Qiu close behind.

"Tomo, wait for me!"

"Listen to my explanation!"

Bai Qiu continuously closed the distance between himself and Takamatsu Tomo.

Takamatsu Tomo's small frame didn't run very fast.

Hearing the voice behind her, Takamatsu Tomo looked back.

It was Bai Qiu catching up.

A flicker of struggle crossed her eyes; Takamatsu Tomo didn't dare to face him.

To avoid being caught, Takamatsu Tomo took a deep breath and tried to speed up.

However, running all the way down from the fifth floor had already exhausted a lot of her stamina.

She was already feeling breathless but kept running desperately.

As a result, she lost focus from looking back, and Takamatsu Tomo didn't notice the ground beneath her feet.

There was a small rock she loved.

But the small rock tripped her.

This directly caused Takamatsu Tomo to stumble, and she was about to fall to the ground.

Bai Qiu saw it too, and of course, there wasn't enough time to rush forward and catch her.

He could only watch anxiously.

Takamatsu Tomo also closed her eyes in fear, but fortunately, her subconscious used her arms to cushion the fall.

With a "bang,"

Takamatsu Tomo slid to the ground.

Bai Qiu also caught up, stepped forward to help her up, and asked anxiously, "Tomo, are you okay?"

Takamatsu Tomo's gaze shifted evasively; she seemed unwilling to speak.

Bai Qiu followed her gaze to her pink knee and noticed a small bloodstain seeping out.

"Band-aid, band-aid."

Bai Qiu patted himself, but there wasn't one.

The band-aid Takamatsu Tomo had given him, he hadn't carried it with him but had left it at home.

Feeling a bit awkward, Bai Qiu asked, "Tomo, do you have a band-aid?"

Mentioning the band-aid, Takamatsu Tomo instinctively pulled one out of her pocket.

Bai Qiu's eyes lit up, and he happily took it.

However, Takamatsu Tomo still looked very disappointed.

Bai Qiu tore open the band-aid with a cute pattern while explaining:

"Tomo, I didn't mean to laugh at you just now."

Takamatsu Tomo responded briefly.

Bai Qiu then said, "I just think we can't be in the club forever."

Why not?

Takamatsu Tomo's eyes darkened. Though she didn't say it aloud, her head drooped further, and her feet tucked in.

It seemed she didn't want Bai Qiu to help her put on a bandage anymore.

Bai Qiu noticed, and found Akari a bit cute.

Stopping what he was doing, Bai Qiu looked up at Takamatsu Tomo and smiled, "But, think about it,"

"When we graduate, won't we automatically leave the Astronomy Club?"

Takamatsu Tomo looked up, appearing a bit dazed.

Is that right?

It was like how the senior students graduated, which was why the Astronomy Club was empty.

Seeing that Takamatsu Tomo's attention was captured, Bai Qiu struck while the iron was hot, "After graduation, we won't be able to stay in the school's Astronomy Club."

"We can't exactly come back and hog someone else's activity room, can we?"

"There are other people who love stars too, you know."

"Oh, right. Akari, if you go to university, universities also have Astronomy Clubs, and their equipment might be even more advanced."

"Is... is that so?"

Takamatsu Tomo thought it over carefully and felt Bai Qiu's words made a lot of sense. She wasn't as dejected anymore.

So Qiu didn't hate the Astronomy Club; he was just considering the reality of graduating.

"Mhm! When have I ever lied to you?"

Bai Qiu nodded affirmatively.

"So, 'forever' might not be possible."

"But for the three years we're in school, I don't think I'll leave the Astronomy Club."

"What do you think, Akari?"

Bai Qiu blinked and looked at Akari.

Light rekindled in Takamatsu Tomo's eyes, and she said earnestly, "Then... the Astronomy Club, for three years."

Chapter 26: Treating Akari to a Meal, Watching Liang Eat Grass

"Yes, yes, I swear."

Bai Qiu said playfully.

But Takamatsu Tomo seemed very happy when she heard this, nodding heavily.

"Akari, please straighten your leg."

Since it was to be applied to her knee, Bai Qiu said this to prevent the bandage from coming loose when she stood up later.

Takamatsu Tomo seemed to just realize now that Bai Qiu was crouching in front of her legs, about to help her put on a bandage.

Takamatsu Tomo couldn't help but feel a little shy.

But she still obediently turned sideways and straightened her calf.

Then, upon noticing the pattern on the bandage, Takamatsu Tomo's attention was immediately drawn again.

"This is the sixth installment of the Marine Life Series."

"There's also the Reef Manta Ray, Ocean Sunfish, Oarfish, Whale Shark, Blue Whale, Fin Whale... patterns."

As she spoke, Takamatsu Tomo took out several new bandages from her person.

Her hands lay limply before Bai Qiu.

Takamatsu Tomo looked at Bai Qiu, appearing very expectant.

Seeing Takamatsu Tomo suddenly become enthusiastic again, Bai Qiu couldn't help but chuckle, "Akari's back to normal!"

"But you're the one who needs a bandage right now."

Hearing this, Takamatsu Tomo's cheeks flushed, and she looked a little embarrassed.

"I... caused you trouble just now..."

Bai Qiu shook his head, then perfectly applied the bandage to Takamatsu Tomo's injured knee.

"Thank you..."

Seeing that Takamatsu Tomo was still holding so many band-aids, Bai Qiu had no choice but to pick out a few more.

Takamatsu Tomo immediately beamed a smile again.

Bai Qiu felt that Takamatsu Tomo was quite easy to appease, as long as you were willing to accept her strange gifts.

Akari suddenly running off earlier had truly caught him completely off guard.

The two stood up, and Bai Qiu asked again, "Does anything else hurt?"

After all, Akari hadn't been willing to speak earlier, so he could only observe her surface for any injuries.

Takamatsu Tomo gently shook her head.

"That's good then."

Bai Qiu was relieved.

Suddenly, Bai Qiu noticed the diary lying open beside them.

It seemed to have fallen on the ground when Akari fell.

Seeing Bai Qiu pick it up, Takamatsu Tomo subconsciously opened her mouth.

And Bai Qiu had already unavoidably seen a few lines.

"A heart burdened beyond endurance, wavering, trembling eyes, in this world."

"I am always alone."

"In a spring where only wilting is known, I pass each year blandly and indifferently."

Bai Qiu didn't read any further.

The lyrics were very evocative, but these first few lines, Bai Qiu felt, were very negative!
