"It's my fault."
"So... so many people..." Although it was not the first time to see such a huge flow of people, this time was different. Umi Sonoda was going to distribute flyers here as a distributor. Umi Sonoda couldn't help but tremble nervously.
"That's why I chose this place. I want to promote the live by distributing this, and if I try to do it loudly, I'll get used to it soon, right?"
Umi Sonoda controlled himself a little, and then closed his eyes.
"The guests are all vegetables, the guests are all vegetables, the guests are all vegetables..."
Umi Sonoda opened his eyes suddenly, and the endless Fantasy that had been in his mind just now appeared in front of him.
Everyone's heads turned into vegetables.
Seeing this scene, Umi Sonoda seemed to have had a stroke, his legs went limp and he sat on the ground.
"Are you having any difficulties?" Honoka Kosaka asked Minami Kotori.
"No, it doesn't matter to me." Minami Kotori looked behind Honoka Kosaka, "But, Umi she just..."
Honoka Kosaka followed Kotori's line of sight and found Umi Sonoda squatting in front of the gashapon machine in the shadow.
With a bang, Umi Sonoda opened the gashapon. "Ah, I seem to have found a rare species..." She said in a depressed tone.
"Has she always been like this..." Senba Gari pointed at Umi Sonoda who was playing Gacha while looking at Minami Kotori and Honoka Kosaka speechlessly.
"Ha... haha..." Minami Kotori smiled awkwardly.
"Umi!!"
"Ah... Sui... Honoka..." Umi is obviously a little guilty.
"Sigh... Honoka, I think this may be too hasty. After all, there are strangers here, so Umi may not be able to adapt to it. How about we move to a place with more acquaintances." Senba Gari said at this time.
"Great idea!"
Then, Honoka Kosaka brought Umi Sonoda to the school gate.
"Is it okay if you stay here?"
"Well, here..." Umi Sonoda still said in a slightly panicked tone.
"Then let's get started~" After saying that, Honoka Kosaka ran to the students passing by and distributed flyers, "μ's will hold its first live show, please pay attention!"
Umi Sonoda looked at the flyer in her hand, and then looked at Honoka Kosaka, Minami Kotori and Senba Gari enthusiastically distributing flyers. At this time, a person happened to pass by her.
"That... that..."
Because the voice was too low, the other party did not notice that Umi Sonoda walked directly out of the school gate.
Minami Kotori "Please take it, thank you very much"
At this time, a classmate walked up to her. Umi Sonoda mustered up the courage to stretch out her hand and shouted with all her strength.
"Please!"
Honoka Kosaka "Please pay attention to μ's first live"
The girl with two pigtails tied with a red bow did not take the flyer, but looked at Umi Sonoda with troublesome eyes.
"No need."
Then, the girls also walked out of the school gate.
Minami Kotori "Please take care of me"
Umi failed twice in a row, and she sighed in embarrassment.
"Please take care of me." When Senba Gari gave a leaflet to a girl, he looked up and saw Umi Sonoda sighing, so he walked to Umi Sonoda and said.
"Honoka and the others have already sent out a lot of flyers. If they don't work hard, they will fall behind. This is not the Umi Sonoda little classmate I usually see who is serious about everything."
"... But Honoka she may be used to helping in the store all the time. My words..."
Minami Kotori "Please take care of me"
"And Kotori is also working hard."
Minami Kotori "Please pay attention to μ's first live"
"Now, Umi, let me tell you, in fact, everyone has something they are worst at doing. Whether it is you, me, or someone else, please stop talking and listen to me. But so what, since you are not good at it, then work hard to change it, and turn what you are not good at into Those who are good at it, look at Honoka and Kotori, they have been working hard, ah! Please pay attention to μ's first live." At the same time, Senba Gari handed the leaflet in his hand to a girl.
"Working hard... to change..." Umi Sonoda stared blankly at Honoka Kosaka and Minami Kotori in front of him who were handing out leaflets in his hands. Then he looked at Senba Gari who was also handing out leaflets next to him, so he grabbed the leaflets in his hands and said firmly.
"Okay! Umi Sonoda, you can't lose to this idiot Honoka!"
Then Umi Sonoda immediately ran in front of Senba Gari, handed out leaflets to the students, and said in a loud voice, "Please pay attention to μ's, which will hold its first live!"
"That..."
"Huh?" Honoka Kosaka looked at the source of the sound. Hanayo Koizumi was standing next to Honoka Kosaka. "You are from..."
"Yes, the concert... I will... go and see it." Although he spoke hesitantly and his voice was not loud, Hanayo Koizumi also expressed his thoughts.
"Really?" Honoka Kosaka said in surprise.
"Are you really coming?" Minami Kotori put his arm on Umi Sonoda's shoulders and ran to Hanayo Koizumi, while Senba Gari followed behind them. Then Umi Sonoda handed the stack of leaflets in his hand to Hanayo Koizumi.
"Then, whether it's one or two... all of these..."
"Umi." Honoka Kosaka glanced at Umi Sonoda.
"I know..."
"Have you always wanted..."
"Ha... haha..."
Eli Ayase looked at the five Senba Gari at the door of the teaching building for a while, then left with a somewhat depressed expression.
Before starting
In the evening, Honoka Kosaka invited Umi Sonoda and Minami Kotori to his home. Umi Sonoda first came to Honoka Kosaka's home.
[Loneliness of the cutterなさ わかるだけど](Although we are all people who understand what it means to be lonely)
A-RISE's new song is playing on Honoka Kosaka's laptop.
"Ah... Sure enough, there is a difference in the beauty of the movements." Then, Honoka Kosaka stood up and imitated a few movements.
"This? This? Or this?"
Beep beep beep, there were several sounds coming from the mobile phone.
"Oh!" Honoka Kosaka immediately lay down and looked at the computer.
"What's wrong?" Umi Sonoda asked
"The ranking has gone up!"
"People who saw the flyer must have voted for us!"
"It's really fun."
"I've been waiting for a long time." Minami Kotori also came to Honoka Kosaka's house, carrying a bag in her hand.
"Ah, Kotori, come and have a look."
"Huh?" Minami Kotori looked at the computer screen and said, "Wow, that's amazing."
"Um..." Honoka Kosaka looked at the bag brought by Minami Kotori, "Could it be that it's clothing?!"
"Well, we just did the final processing in the store," Minami Kotori said as he picked up the clothes in the bag.
"Excited and excited~" Honoka Kosaka looked at the bag expectantly, while Umi Sonoda swallowed a little worriedly.
"Qiang~" Minami Kotori lifted the hanger and took out a pink dress.
The appearance of the dress is very similar to the previous one designed by Minami Kotori, but after all, it is the real thing, and everything is much more detailed than the design. There is a bow tied on the chest of the dress, and there is also a bow on the back of the waist, and the neckline is made of white fabric.
"So cute!" Honoka Kosaka praised, "Just like a real idol!"
However, Umi Sonoda showed fear in his eyes, as if he had seen a bacterial carrier.
"Really?"
"So awesome, so awesome~Kotori"
"Although there are some differences between the actual thing and the design, I still want to imitate it as close as possible."
"Very good~" Honoka Kosaka praised.
Umi Sonoda kept blushing and looked at the skirt in fear "...Kotori"
"Huh?" The two looked at Umi Sonoda.
"The length of the skirt of that skirt..."
"Ah?" Minami Kotori looked at Umi Sonoda in confusion. However, Minami Kotori immediately remembered what Umi Sonoda said to her when she was designing the clothes.
'Listen, the skirt must be at least knee-length! Is that clear?!'
Minami Kotori, who was frightened at the time, also agreed to Umi Sonoda's request, and now...
"I should have said, it must be at least knee-length, otherwise it won't be worn!" Umi Sonoda stared at Minami Kotori with extremely scary eyes, and grabbed Minami Kotori's shoulders with both hands.
"Because there is no other way, we are idols..." Honoka Kosaka advised from the side.
"There's no rule saying that because you're an idol, your skirt must be short!"
"Having said that..."
"But now if we talk about changing it, it's really..."
"Yeah!" Honoka Kosaka agreed.
"It's really despicable to do it first and then play the song! In that case, I would just sing in uniform alone." After saying that, Umi Sonoda picked up his school bag, opened the door and prepared to leave.
"Eh?!"
"How could this be?"
"It's your fault in the first place!" Umi Sonoda said dissatisfied, "It's like colluding with each other without telling me."
"Because... I want it to be a success." Honoka Kosaka said this without any joking. "I have been working hard to create lyrics, memorize dance steps, and prepare costumes. I thought it would be great to have three people together. It would be great to work together. I have always thought like this!"
Hearing this, Umi Sonoda also felt a little guilty.
At this time, Honoka Kosaka ran to the window, opened the window and shouted outside.
"I've always thought so!!!"
"What are you doing?!"
"Well, I should have the same idea." Minami Kotori said to Umi Sonoda with a smile.
"Huh?"
"I also want the three of us to work together to make Live a success."
"Kotori..." Umi Sonoda glanced at the two of them and sighed helplessly, "You are always like this... so cunning."
Then, Umi Sonoda looked at Honoka Kosaka, "I understand."
"Umi..." Hearing this, Honoka Kosaka showed moved eyes, and then Honoka Kosaka jumped up high, "I like it the most!!"
Honoka Kosaka gave Umi Sonoda a big hug.
"Oh--" Honoka Kosaka put his face against Umi Sonoda's face.
That night, the three of them came to the shrine and made their wishes for their live performance tomorrow.
"Please bless the live to be successful, no, be a big success!"
"I hope you won't be nervous..."
"I hope everyone can be happy..."
"Please take care of me!" Honoka Kosaka closed his eyes tightly, placed his wish on the gods, and waited for the gods' answer.
Honoka Kosaka opened his eyes, turned around and looked at the night sky.
All the stars in the night sky are shining with their own light, and the moonlight reflected by the full moon is also extremely pure.
"It's tomorrow, I'm really looking forward to it."
The three of them held hands under this reply.
We will never leave.
