At the end of the song, facing the applause of the whole box, Kyoko gave a slight salute, then silently put down the microphone and sat back to her original position.
“Singing so well.”
Zong Gu leaned closer, as if he was whispering, only she could hear the sound.
“…”
Kyoko's face turned a little farewell, her cheeks were still red.
"Thanks."
The two high school students spoke shyly one after another, and then never touched the microphone again, leaving all their time to several adults.

("New Treasure Island")
Noma Nan sang loudly at the voice. Soya looked at the MV on the projection screen, then looked at her again, and continued to flip the menu on the table.
Their set meal is drinks and food requires an order of à la carte.
“It’s all fried food.”
"Um."
“Try the fried chicken fillet here.”
Kyoko nodded, then reached out and flipped the menu, pointing to the dessert on another page.
"The strawberry jam cream waffle here is also very good, and students from Zong Gu should like it."
"Is that right?" Zong Guduo looked at it twice. The strawberry jam was brightly colored and looked very attractive. "Then let's have one too."
The few people in the private room came directly after work, and there were staple foods such as fried rice and pasta on the menu. Soya decided to order some to taste the taste first. If you are satisfied, it would be okay to solve the dinner here.
He and Kyoko ordered a few foods each, but the adults who were singing only had a piece of French fries to eat and play with.
"Miss Noma and the others will have to go to other places in the future..." Kyoko reminded.
"I see."
Zong Gu picked up the phone on the wall and conveyed the needs here to the waiter.
Not long after, a few drinks were delivered first, followed by fries, chicken fillets, waffles and other foods.
"I said..."
Noma Nan held a piece of chips in his mouth and raised his eyebrows, "This is not a dim sum shop or a cooking house."
"If you are hungry, you might as well go to the 'true flavor' restaurant in the corner to have a bowl of ramen - Soya and Kyoko will sing another song."
Zong Gu looked at her and took a bite of the waffle with strawberry jam and cream. His mouth kept moving, but he just didn't say anything.
"How is it?" Kyoko asked.
He nodded, "I like it very much."
The two looked at each other and laughed.
The neglected Noma Nan said nothing, and grabbed a few more French fries and stuffed them into his mouth.
Two microphones were passed back and forth in the hands of four adults. After singing this for more than an hour, Noma Nan whispered something, and the other three nodded one after another, and then said that they were leaving first.
"If we are not here, Soya and Kyoko can let go and sing as much as possible."
“…I’m not interested in singing. So is Kyoko.”
"Is that so, I'm sorry."
Zong Gu looked at the witches who had stood up and asked, "Are you going to have a drink next?"
"Yes, go to Izakaya." Noma Nan nodded, "But you can't bring you both. If you don't plan to continue singing, just go home early."
"Um."
To be on the precaution, Soya asked, "Where is Miss Noma's izakaya?"
Noma Nan blurted out, "Qizumi Pavilion."
“…”
It's really a coincidence.
She continued, "Reiko has been there several times and said that the store manager there is good craftsmanship. And I remember that the izakaya was run by Kirino's classmate, right?"
"yes."
Zong Gu nodded, "But in recent days, the Fengquanting has been closed."
“Hey, why?”
"A relative of the Kirino family died, and their family went to Kanto to mourn."
“…”
Noma Nan was stunned and looked at each other with the other people.
"Then there is no way, let's change the other one."
"That's all."
After leaving the karaoke, the driving Noma Nandon planned to send the two students back first, but finally changed his mind.
"I can't get off the car. Soya, you are responsible for sending Kyoko home."
"...You are too irresponsible, and you are the deputy teacher Noma."
"Because I believe in Sonoya."
Noma Nan held the steering wheel, and the few people who got on the bus quickly put on their seat belts, "There are all people here, and everyone knows that you are actually very good at fighting. There will be no problem with safety or something."
"This is not the same thing."
"Anyway, Kyoko is handed over to Soya. Send her home or take her home, you can do whatever you want. Bye~"
After saying that, she stepped on the accelerator and left.
It was not until the two men who were holding umbrellas disappeared in the rearview mirror that the Hanai Matori on the passenger seat retracted his gaze.
"By the way, Anan has made a matchup too deliberately."
"There's no way."
Holding the steering wheel, Noma Nan sighed, "Our Miss Kyoko is serious and awkward. The warm water cannot melt her ice."
"I think Sonoya is quite gentle."
"That might be what attracts Kyoko, and it's not the same as the external force that matches them."
She looked ahead, "The two people are attracted to each other, and they have their own persistence or stubbornness. At this time, I need to push them with enthusiasm."
"Anan." Reiko Kobayashi, who looked younger, leaned out from the back seat, "I am optimistic about Soya and Miss, but I still think it would be better to let it go."
"You get out of the car."
"Hate!"
Hanai Matori smiled and looked up at the neon lights in the distance.
"However, since I met Soya, Kyoko has indeed smiled a lot more than before."
"yes."
Noma Nan looked serious, "That's why I don't want Kyoko to miss Soya."
"The girl who falls in love with him is not just our eldest lady."
......
The karaoke location is not close or far, and it takes about half an hour to walk to Sugawara's home.
It was drizzling, but fortunately Soya and Kyoko both brought umbrellas.
The fancy and simple umbrellas were each tilted to one side, as difficult to tolerate as each other's colors, but the people below were getting closer.
"After that being said, is Tamako staying at home alone?"
"No. Mother is at home today."
"Is that true?" Sogo nodded, "That's good."
The eldest daughter is excellent in ability and can stand alone early. The Sugawara couple rarely interferes in specific social affairs on weekdays, and they focus more on social activities and socializing as clergy. Soya often visits the Sugawara family, but they never see them.
After them a few times.
"It was also my mother who asked me to come with Miss Hanai and the others." Kyoko said.
“It’s okay to relax occasionally.”
She glanced to the side, holding the handle of the umbrella and moved a few times, "This is not relaxation..."
Sonoya smiled.
The two of them walked in the alley, and the sound of cars came from behind. He stopped and gave in to the side.
Kyoko stood behind him.
The lights illuminate half of his face from far to near.
"Student Zong Gu..."
He looked over.
Kyoko looked at him, "Will Soya leave Kinki in the future?"
“…”
Zong Gu was stunned and nodded.
"meeting."
The car passed by and the lights disappeared.
"Although hope is slim, I have to look for their traces."
"That's right." Kyoko had known the answer to this question for a long time, "This is the most important thing..."
And she doesn't want to think about the problems after this for the time being.
Zong Gu, who also realized this, felt embarrassed.
The red taillights gradually drifted away, and the two continued to move forward. More than ten minutes later, Soya stopped outside Sugawara's house.
"I won't go in and disturb you."
Kyoko nodded and looked at him.
"Good night."
Without saying anything, she probably couldn't sleep well tonight, Zong Gu thought.
"Although I haven't found my future goal yet, I used to want to be a doctor... but before leaving Kinki, I want to complete all my studies from high school to university."
“…”
Kyoko opened her mouth and pinched her hands together.
"There are many years left..."
"yes."
Zong Gu nodded and looked at Yuzi who was peeking behind the door.
"Since it has been so chaotic for so many years, let the world wait a little longer. What's more, I'm not a savior who can save the world with just one move."
Kyoko frowned, but the corners of her mouth also raised.
