Riki and Rikki Return to the BanG Dream! World

She really liked this pendant, and she even received it with Riki. She cherished it, so how could it have disappeared the very next day?

"Did you lose the pendant?" Riki asked the anxious Shiina Riki. "It's okay, we can just get another one at Haicheng Zoo later. It's not very expensive."

It's really not expensive.

Shiina Riki paused, glanced at Riki, and whispered, "But that's the pendant we got together; the numbers on the back are consecutive."

Riki was taken aback. He had previously thought that Shiina Riki casually hang up the pendant. He didn't expect her to be so serious, even checking the date and serial number.

Rikki truly possesses a remarkable character.

Just like Riki's noble and quiet kindness—she deleted all the movies from her roommates' computers for their health.

"Let's go look for it together, following the same route we took," Riki said.

"... No need, it might have already been picked up by someone else, it would be a waste of time," Shiina Riki said, arms crossed.

"Perhaps the other party is of noble character."

"What if the other party is a bad person?"

How could you think so badly of people?

"That's a perfectly normal thought!"

Optimist Riki: It will be alright.

Pessimist Rikki: It will be lost.

Panda Pendant: What happened? Where am I??

Riki took Shiina Riki's hand and said, "If I say I'll go find him, then I'll go. I don't want my panda to be missing its other half."

Shiina Riki immediately looked up at Riki, her eyes widening in surprise for a moment. Seeing him holding her hand, she softly replied, "Mm."

The scorching summer sun had flushed Shiina Riki's face, making her fair skin glow. She held Riki's hand as they walked along the forest path, looking up at Riki. Sunlight filtered through the leaves and fell on him, making him look beautiful.

Shiina Riki suddenly felt her heart beating a little fast.

"Have you been here before?" Riki asked.

"Yes, I have been there."

Did you go into the bushes?

Do you think I'm a child?

Riki and Shiina Riki retraced their steps, searching high and low, left and right, but still couldn't find the Panda Pendant. Shiina Riki advised, "Forget it, it's not worth much anyway."

"What was your response to what I just said?" Riki asked.

"That was just now, and we've already searched everywhere, so let's not waste any more time."

"Okay, let's ask the people at the secondhand bookstore one last time."

Riki walked over to a classmate who was setting up a stall and asked, "Have you seen a cute Panda Pendant, about this size?"

Riki her thumb and forefinger to indicate the size of the microcosm.

The classmate looked up and shook his head. "I didn't see it, but if you're talking about the souvenirs from Haicheng Zoo, about 3cm tall and 2cm thick, made of one piece of plastic, Huahua on the panda Huahua from Haicheng Zoo, a cute and realistic limited edition pendant from Haicheng Zoo, then I did find one."

No, that precise?

"May I ask?" Riki asked.

"It is indeed the blueprint I designed for the Panda Pendant at Haicheng Zoo." The classmate nodded.

You were just waiting for me to ask, weren't you?

You're pretty good at putting on airs.

"Speaking of the transformation of our Haicheng city, it sounds a bit familiar. Could it be that it is a homophony of Huahua, a giant panda that is popular on the Internet? Is there any way to form Huahua..." Lu Yi pondered.

"Hey, you can't just say things like that!"

He got angry.

"However, the name 'Cao Cao' was indeed prepared for this; we'll just have to wait for Huahua."

That's enough. I've shown you all how to exploit traffic.

This lousy school will ruin Haicheng sooner or later.

"Here, don't lose it next time. This is a limited edition first release; it won't look like this again. Your girlfriend is lucky," her classmate said.

Riki took it and handed it to Shiina Riki.

As for being called his girlfriend or something, that's a trivial matter and doesn't need to be taken seriously.

Shiina Riki was stunned to find it again. After a long pause, she looked up at Riki and smiled, "Thank you, Riki. Listening to you was the right thing to do."

Rikki's assessment is accurate.

Watching Shiina Riki hang the Panda Pendant back on her phone and tie the string into a tight knot.

"Wouldn't it be difficult to change it like this?" Riki asked.

Shiina Riki said, "Then I won't change it, because... I like this one."

I like it.

There's nothing we can do about that.

Sad news: Riki, a well-known freshman at Haicheng University, appeared to be in pain while taking a nap at 2 PM today. She only napped for half an hour and is otherwise in good health.

"Why do I keep dreaming about failing to ascend to the dragon throne?" Riki clicked her tongue, then got up to see that the door across the hall was also closed.

It seems Rikki also has the habit of taking a nap, no wonder he's so physically strong.

The door opened, Shiina Riki yawned as she walked out. She paused for a moment upon seeing Riki, then finally recognized her. "Oh, it's Riki."

"Yes, it's Riki."

Shiina Riki was still not used to this time travel. She was in her own room, but when she opened the door, she was in Riki's house.

However, there is only one true heroism in the world: to love life even after recognizing its harsh realities.

Rikki is clearly that kind of hero.

"Since we're all awake, let's film a video together," Riki said.

"What you're saying doesn't make any sense, but whatever, just so you know I won't pretend to be anything." Shiina Riki preemptively warned.

"Let's keep it simple and cook something," Riki said after thinking for a moment. "Just like what you made for me this morning."

"We've run out of sausages, so we'll have to use something else." Shiina Riki walked into the kitchen, picked up an apron, and put it on.

"Rikki is really good at cooking, quite different from what I remembered," Riki said.

"Ha, isn't it normal for teenage girls to know how to cook?" Shiina Riki squinted. "Are you mocking me?"

That's a dangerous thing to say; it could draw warnings from domestic feminists and male sympathizers.

However, since Rikki was a foreigner, they didn't dare to scold her.

It seems that Japan's move away from Asia and towards Europe has its advantages.

"Adolescence isn't a magic bullet, unless you're a high school student," Riki sighed.

They become useless once they get to university.

"Aren't you going through puberty too? What do you take your youth for?" Shiina Riki asked, puzzled.

"Great Teacher once said, youth is a lie, a sin. Those who sing praises of youth are always deceiving themselves and their companions..." Riki said spiritedly.

"A person who would say something like that must have no friends," Shiina Riki frowned.

Apologize for the famous works of anime and manga!

No, Rikki is also from a famous novel.

With the two supreme beings locked in a fierce battle, Riki truly had no way to intervene.

Riki chatted with Shiina Riki while taking pictures of her cooking.

"I'm good at cooking only because my parents have to go to work in the mornings, and my older sister is lazy. If we didn't take care of her, she would probably starve to death, so I have no choice but to cook," Shiina Riki said.

"My sister used to be the head of the Brass Band Club and even won first place in the regional competition. She's really amazing, unlike me. I also started playing musical instruments when I was little, and I thought I was pretty good back then. But when I saw my sister win awards, I realized I was nothing special. It was even more so after I met Sakiko, and now there's you."

Riki said tactfully, "Rikki also has his merits."

"Where?" Shiina Riki asked.

Flesh.

"Tsundere," Riki said.

"Huh? Are you mocking me?"

"Don't panic, look at the pot!"

Riki finished filming the video, and Rikki also prepared the meal, which was just enough for a dinner.

That evening, Shiina Riki picked up Riki's computer and watched their anime.

"The band is more complicated than I imagined..."

Fortunately, there was Riki.

Just then, there was a knock at the door, and Riki peeked out.

"Rikki, are you free?"

"What's wrong?" Shiina Riki, putting down her laptop.

"Do you remember that annoying girl in front of the concert hall yesterday? The one you hit on the head with Kobe fadeaway jumper?" Riki said.

"Oh, that person? Do I remember her?" Shiina Riki frowned; she disliked that girl.

"Their school and our school are holding an exchange event in the concert hall, and I need to participate in a performance there. However, the atmosphere is quite tense. Could you join me? If we don't have any girls participating, the other side might make excuses."

Shiina Riki was taken aback. That magnificent, golden concert hall?

Can she go?

"My skills aren't good enough, are they?" Shiina Riki hesitated, knowing that if she went up there, she would only be held back by Riki.

"Then it's settled!"

Before Shiina Riki could say anything, the door closed.

Shiina Riki hesitated. Could she really do it?

That girl was annoying, but she was much more capable than her.

What to do...

Shiina Riki lay on the bed, looking very distressed, staring blankly at the Panda Pendant in her palm for a long time.

How could she possibly do what her sister and Sakiko couldn't?

But Riki asked her for a favor.

Shiina Riki, remembering how that girl looked down on Riki, sat up in annoyance.

"Then let's do it!"

Chapter 120 Riki and Rikki Return to the Bang Bang World

Early in the morning, Riki saw Shiina Tatsuki Shiina Riki got up.

"You look terrible," Riki said.

"After all, we're going to perform in a place like that." Shiina Riki rubbed her temples. She had been so nervous last night that she couldn't fall asleep. Heaven knows why Riki had such a normal expression.

Rikki began to envy Riki's thick-skinned nature.

For her, this was just as incredible as performing at the Tokyo Dome.

"You'll get used to it. I was very nervous at first too. I was even thinking that if anyone dared to laugh down there, I would jump down and beat them up with my bare hands," Riki sighed.

"... That was a joke, wasn't it?"
