Crossover Anime: A Musical Anime - Lighthearted and Enjoyable

Page 51

Because it was a weekday.

There were very few guests.

This was exactly what Bai Qiu wanted to do.

He likes to go to the cinema when there are fewer people, so that he feels like he has the whole place to himself.

The planetarium was dimly lit, with only the oval planetarium and some star-shaped decorations emitting a faint glow.

Led by Gao Songdeng, Bai Qiu arrived at her usual seat.

Gao Songdeng sat on the outer side near the aisle, and Bai Qiu sat to Deng's left.

Later, with Xiaodeng's help, Bai Qiu learned that the soft chairs here could be adjusted so that the whole body could lie flat.

Slowly opening my eyes, the vast starry sky above came into view, with stars appearing and disappearing faintly.

At this moment, it feels as if the entire universe is twinkling for you.

In addition, pleasant light music could be heard from time to time, and there were occasional broadcasts of relevant astronomical knowledge.

"Thank you, Lantern."

Bai Qiu turned her head and spoke to the lamp that was right in front of her.

Gao Songdeng's cheeks flushed slightly, and she gently shook her head.

“I’m very happy that Qiu Jun came here with me.”

"That's good."

Bai Qiu smiled with satisfaction.

It seems that coming here with Deng was definitely the right decision.

Just then, a broadcast announced that the astronomy program was about to begin.

The two stopped talking and focused on admiring the starry sky.

At that moment, another person wearing a baseball cap and black sunglasses entered the venue.

There were plenty of empty seats in the venue, but she seemed to have a specific purpose in mind and headed straight for a certain spot.

Then, they arrived at Bai Qiu's row of seats.

Sanjiao Chuhua frowned slightly, as if there was an extra person present than usual.

The dim lighting made it difficult for Chu Hua to see people clearly, but she didn't mind and sat down to Bai Qiu's left.

However, there seems to be something wrong with the seat in this location.

No matter how hard Sanjiao Chuhua tried, the chair just kept making "clicking" sounds and just wouldn't lie flat.

The strange noise coming from beside her ears quickly caught Bai Qiu's attention.

Bai Qiu looked to the side, "This chair is like this..."

Then, Bai Qiu put what she had just learned to use, turning the button in the way Gao Songdeng had taught her.

Instantly, the seat transformed into a recliner.

The two looked at each other.

The light from the rotating planetarium shone directly onto their faces.

Dark gray eyes met deep purple eyes.

Their breaths hit each other's faces.

It's that same person from last time!

Both of them froze for a few seconds, feeling their hearts race.

Bai Qiu, who was visiting this place for the first time, couldn't help but complain in her heart: why are the seats designed so close together? What's the difference between this and lying down together?

Could you please give our guests some privacy?

Fortunately, the planetarium's lights moved away in time, making it impossible for them to see each other's facial expressions.

"Thanks……"

"Excuse me……"

Two voices rang out almost simultaneously, and then both of them quickly turned their heads.

As if nothing had happened, they admired the starry sky.

Bai Qiu took a deep breath to calm her fluctuating emotions. The last time her heart was beating this fast was when she met Toyokawa Shoko while buying an electronic keyboard.

Then he looked at the light on his right and saw that she was so engrossed in the glittering starry sky that she hadn't noticed what had just happened, which made him feel inexplicably relieved.

Although the triangular Hatsuka on the side still maintained her calm demeanor on the surface, she felt something was amiss in her heart; her attention was no longer on the stars above her head.

That racing heart feeling I just experienced... it felt so familiar...

Sanko Chuka subconsciously placed her right hand on her chest, feeling her heart pounding, her mind filled with countless thoughts.

This feeling of familiarity... only arises when one comes into contact with autumn.

About an hour later, the planetarium's loudspeaker announced the end of the program.

"This concludes our stargazing event. Please leave in an orderly manner, and watch your step as you exit..."

At the same time, lights also came on on the walls on both sides.

After Gao Songdeng got up from the recliner, he excitedly turned his head to look at Bai Qiu.

"Autumn is the story of Altair and Vega."

"Just like you said last time!"

Perhaps because she was a little excited, Gao Songdeng's face was flushed slightly.

"Yes, I'm a professional."

Bai Qiu replied somewhat shamelessly. As a Chinese, he could easily recite several different versions of the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meeting on the Magpie Bridge, which were certainly more detailed than those in the Japanese planetarium.

Then, Bai Qiu looked at Gao Songdeng and smiled:

"Deng, let's go outside and talk."

Gao Songdeng nodded quickly, like a chick pecking at rice, and followed Bai Qiu toward the exit.

Neither of them noticed that behind them, Mitsumi Hatsuka was staring intently at their backs with an incredulous expression.

What did that Gao Song classmate just say? Qiu, that boy's name is Qiu... Is that true? Is it the Bai Qiu I know?

In addition, Sanjiao Chuhua also knows Gao Songdeng, after all, the other party used to be the lead singer of Xiangzi Band, and Sanjiao Chuhua has been following Crychic.

And... there's also the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.

Qiu had told her this before...

Watching the two figures gradually disappear into the distance, Mikasa Hatsuka silently clenched her fists, unable to let go of her feelings for a long time.

Chapter 45 Shiina Riki

We left the planetarium.

Bai Qiu and Gao Songdeng chatted about the stars as they slowly made their way towards the station.

Seeing Gao Songdeng's excited expression, Bai Qiu felt a little reluctant to ask about the next topic.

However, if we don't figure it out, the Takamatsu light might turn back into a small off light tomorrow.

So, seizing the opportunity, Bai Qiu asked the question that had been bothering her.

"Does Deng have a band?"

Gao Songdeng looked up, slightly taken aback; she hadn't expected to be asked this so suddenly.

After a brief silence, Deng nodded slightly.

"There used to be a band."

Then, the lamp's little head didn't lift up again.

Sure enough, whenever the band is mentioned, Takasatsu Tōdō becomes noticeably dejected.

[Stimulates Gao Song's memories of the band, +200 notes]

Uh… Bai Qiu’s lips twitched. Although he was really short of musical notes lately.

But he really didn't intend to earn musical notes from the lamp. After all, given her dejected state, deliberately provoking her would easily make him feel guilty.

Of course, having something is better than having nothing... and this way I might be more motivated to help her.

But when Deng said "before," did he mean that he had withdrawn now? Or that the group had disbanded?

"So, was Deng's bad mood yesterday also because of the band?"

Bai Qiu asked next.

Gao Songdeng responded in a low voice, and recalling Xiao Xiang's cold gaze made her shrink back in fear.

Low pressure began to emanate around the Takasō lamps.

Bai Qiu quickly patted his short, light gray hair in a comforting gesture, as if soothing a small animal.

"Could you tell me more about the light?"

Takamatsu seemed to have mustered up a bit of courage as a result, and slightly raised his head as if to say something.

However, at that moment, an uninvited guest barged in.

"Who are you?!"

"What do you want to do to the lamp!"

Suddenly, a girl with long black hair appeared between Bai Qiu and Gao Songdeng.

She stood protectively in front of the lamp, glaring angrily at Bai Qiu.

The two looked at each other.

Bai Qiu was somewhat surprised because it was so sudden.

Then he looked at the girl in front of him, who was only a centimeter taller than the lamp, and the beauty mark under her left eye was very pretty.

And like the blonde short-haired girl I'd seen twice before, she also had rare purple eyes.

However, these eyes seemed to be filled with hostility.

While Bai Qiu was observing Shiina Riki, Shiina Riki was also observing Bai Qiu.

She was working part-time at RiNG and was wiping glasses.

Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure not far from the door—it was Deng!

The lamp hung its head in disappointment, with a man standing in front of it.

Shiina Riki felt that the light was definitely being bullied.

So, disregarding her work, Lixi rushed over and stood in front of the light.

Now that he could clearly see the face in front of him, so beautiful it could deceive, Shiina Ritsuki felt inexplicably annoyed.

Li Xi isn't someone who's obsessed with looks; she's not interested in pretty faces like that.

On the contrary, she felt that Bai Qiu must have used her face to deceive the innocent, kind and lovely Deng.

Moreover, he must have just touched the head of the lamp!

Li Xi subconsciously looked at Bai Qiu's hand.

Unforgivable! I really want to take his hand...!

Bai Qiu was now certain that she had completely misunderstood and was full of hostility towards him!

However, judging from the other party's appearance, they also knew Deng, so Bai Qiu spoke up.

"You may have misunderstood. My name is Bai Qiu, and I am a friend of the lamp."

Shiina Tatsuki unconsciously chuckled.

"Light, is that what you called?"
