It's hard to imagine that Ichiri Toudou, with her personality, would be brave enough to stand on the roadside handing out flyers or doing a street performance.
If so, he must be dreaming.
"Let's not talk about that, Hachiman. We're planning to find a place to design the band's uniforms."
Hongxia waved her hand, dispelling the gloomy atmosphere: "So, how about we go to Boqi-chan's house this weekend?"
"Hmm, Hachiman, wanna come?"
Goto Ichiri looked intently at Hachiman, her eyes filled with anticipation.
"Let's forget about this..."
Just as Hachiman was about to speak, he saw Goto Ichiri curl up in fear, as if he had been shot in the knee.

'As expected, how can a lizard like me expect others to want to come to my house?'
The girl's sorrowful thoughts entered her mind, forcibly pushing back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
I feel like refusing here would really hurt Goto's feelings...
After hesitating for a few seconds, Hachiman finally asked in a low voice, "What exactly is the time?"
"It's okay, Hachiman, I'm not sad at all... Hey, are you coming?"
Completely surprised that Hachiman would agree, Goto Ichiri looked astonished.
"Well, I don't have anything to do in the morning anyway, so I might as well go for a walk."
"really?"
"real."
Is it really true?
"It really is true..."
"Yay!" Goto Ichiri nodded happily, then shared the good news of being able to bring her friend home with her parents.
Finally, it was the first time she had invited friends over to her home, so she was extremely excited.
The next day.
Hachiman got up very early, changed out of his school uniform, tidied up all the clothes that needed washing and put them in the laundry basket, and then took out a clean white T-shirt and black trousers.
Since you're visiting someone's home, you should at least be mindful of your image.
In fact, he had already visited the Goto family once.
In my memory, Goto Ichiri's family members were very warm and welcoming, and she also had a cute little sister and a kind-hearted dog.
However, due to time constraints, he had to get home before the last bus, so he left without saying goodbye properly.
After leaving the house, Hachiman went straight to the train station.
Since the Goto family lives in the Yokohama area, they have to take the train all the way to the last stop and then transfer to a bus, which takes about two hours.
According to Goto Ichiri herself, she chose such a far-away school location simply to avoid her junior high school classmates.
Such obsession is something even Hachiman, with his countless dark histories, would envy.
Because it was early on a weekend morning, many seats on the usually crowded train were empty. Hachiman randomly found an empty seat, sat down, and put on his headphones.
The train travels on the tracks, occasionally making a clanging sound.
He didn't know how much time had passed before he looked up and looked around after the loudspeaker announced that the station had been reached.
"arrive?"
In a daze, I saw the train stopped at an unfamiliar station in Yokohama.
Following the crowd getting off the bus, Hachiman stretched and then glanced at his phone.
"It's 9:15 now, an hour and a half has passed since we set off..."
Hachiman was ashamed.
No wonder Goto Ichiri looks so listless every day, wasting four hours commuting. I really don't know what to say.
After exiting the train station, Hachiman followed the location that Ichiri Goto had sent in advance in the group chat. At the middle of the journey, he happened to meet Kita and Nijika, who had come with him.
"Good morning, Hachiman!"
Hongxia's smile was as warm and comforting as ever. She was wearing similar casual clothes to those worn on the day of the group photo, except that she had a small white round hat on her head.
Kita was dressed very ladylike, wearing a cream-colored shirt with a dark blue skirt and round-toed leather shoes, with a black strap carefully tied around her ankle.
Walking with these two beautiful girls even improved my mood considerably.
While enjoying the feast for their eyes, Hachiman also gave them a friendly nod:
"Good morning, where is Yamada-kun?"
"Oh, she said her grandmother is seriously ill, so she can't come."
Judging from Hongxia's nonchalant attitude, it's likely that her grandmother's serious illness was just an excuse for Yamada Ryo to stand her up.
The three reunited, maintained their parallel line, and continued walking forward.
"It's so hot..."
As they walked, Hongxia fanned herself with her hand and said casually.
"Well, summer is almost here."
Hachiman glanced at Nijika's fair legs under her short skirt and thought to himself that he wished he could wear shorts too.
Wearing long pants in this weather is definitely a bit stuffy.
You just want to see her legs, don't you?
You're talking nonsense, I didn't.
The system's witty remarks were always so incisive, making Hachiman's body even hotter.
"I didn't expect Pochi-chan to really live so far away. Kita-chan, what time does Shuka High School usually start school?"
"It's 8:30." Kita took out some change, bought three bottles of mineral water from the vending machine next to him, and handed them over one by one. "Poch-chan usually gets up around 5 a.m., and she's going to keep doing that for three years..."
"Stop talking, just thinking about it is extremely painful." Hachiman made a "stop!" gesture.
"Oh, after all, it's Pochi-chan."
Because of the temperature, the three of them were not in high spirits and could only walk slowly in the shadows on the side of the street.
It took about another twenty minutes to reach our final destination.
What lay before them was a typical detached house, nothing particularly noteworthy.
However, a long banner hung below the second-floor window that read: "Welcome back to the end of the band's tour."
what is that?
I hope I haven't come to the wrong place...
Hachiman suddenly felt that he needed to re-evaluate his assessment of Goto Ichiri's level of social anxiety.
Hongxia went up and carefully checked the address; it was undoubtedly the Goto family's.
So the three of them had no choice but to ignore the banner and carefully press the doorbell.
"Poch-chan, we're here?"
"Horse, horse, horse, right away!"
Fortunately, Goto Ichiri's trembling voice soon came from inside the house, which relieved Nijika and the others.
With a creak, the door opened.
However, Goto Ichiri was nowhere to be seen.
The three exchanged a glance and walked in on their own.
"Poch-chan, we're coming in."
As soon as they opened the door, they suddenly heard a "bang," and colorful floral fragments fell all over their shoulders. The three of them froze on the spot.
"Welcome!"
Goto Ichiri jumped out from behind the door, wearing clown sunglasses and a red nose commonly seen in comedies, and the ceremonial cannon in her hand was already turned on.
"Everyone, come with me to my room..."
Hachiman, Kita, and Nijika: "Ah, um."
After the three went upstairs, the living room door was opened.

"Honey, I didn't expect that Ichiri-chan would actually bring her friends back. Could it be that she'll rent a friend?"
"I don't think so. They seem to get along very well, and that boy from last time was there too."
The couple exchanged a few words and decided to focus their attention on Hachiman.
"No matter what, we need to find out what that boy thinks of our Ichiri-chan today!"
"Yosh, Operation Ichiri-chan's Wedding, initiating!!!"
...
Second-floor bedroom.
Hachiman sat upright and solemnly.
Although this wasn't his first time entering a girl's bedroom, he still couldn't hide his nervousness.
What he didn't expect was that Kita and Nijika sat up straight just like him, which made him look rather comical.
After calming himself down, Hachiman finally had time to look around.
He looked around and had to admit that Goto Ichiri's bedroom was decorated very differently from Nagasaki Motoyo's.
This tatami-floored bedroom is very quiet. The only larger pieces of furniture are a desk and a guitar, and there isn't even a small toy to be found.
The only thing worth noting is the many strange little decorations on the wall.
For example, there are some incomprehensible talismans and strange pendants, resembling a wizard's collection room.
Besides, there was a stack of photos scattered in the corner. Hachiman looked closely and realized that they were group photos taken last time.
But why are there so many?
Turning my gaze away, Hachiman's voice was barely audible.
"that?"
After entering the room, Nijika and Kita remained silent.
The situation was incredibly suffocating. Goto Ichiri himself didn't say a word, and the four of them just stared at each other, not knowing what to say.
Do you have anything to say?
Who should start?
What should I say?
Rainbow Summer, my little angel, please save me!
Having no other choice, Hachiman turned to Nijika for help.
Fortunately, Hongxia seemed to have recovered from her initial shock and then said, "Ahem, Pochi-chan, your house is so rock and roll."
"Hehe, is there? You all sit down, I'll go downstairs and get some drinks."
After saying that, Goto Ichiri went downstairs.

"Hey, what's with all the tension?!" Hachiman clicked his tongue and couldn't help but complain.
He's a guy and he's already sorted things out, so why are you two girls so distracted?
Lily dolphin?
Are you so captivated by other people's private rooms that you can't bear to leave?
