Chapter 44 Planetarium
Chapter 44 Planetarium
on Tuesday.
Early in the morning.
End the band group chat.
Ichi Nijika sent word that she was ill and reminded Shiraaki and Yamada Ryo to take care of their health.
In addition, the end of the band's training may need to be postponed for a few more days.
So Bai Qiu said with concern: "Hongxia, rest well at home. If you need any help, you can ask me."
I gained some goodwill towards Nijigasaki.
Yamada Ryo then asked Nijika if she wanted to go to her family's hospital.
Goto Ichiri suspects that Nijika was infected by him.
…………
After school.
Planetarium.
To cheer up the dejected Takasatsu, Bai Qiu invited her here.
Originally, Hirasawa Yui also planned to come along, but when she discovered that Yui couldn't even read sheet music, Akiyama Mio had no choice but to teach her herself.
Takamatsu Akari was also planning to go to the planetarium. She usually goes to the planetarium or aquarium when she's in a bad mood.
She had originally planned to invite Bai Qiu, which would be a good opportunity for the Astronomy Department's club activities. Of course, she could write the club report.
However, the sensitive lamp was particularly worried that Bai Qiu might not have time, as he seemed quite busy, so she kept hesitating.
Fortunately, Bai Qiu spoke up.
The two hit it off.
Bai Qiu is buying tickets now.
Takamatsu waited patiently to the side like a little animal.
It's an annual pass, meaning you can enter anytime during the year without having to buy it again.
A rare, faint smile graced Gao Songdeng's face; this was the first time someone had been willing to accompany her to the planetarium.
"Let's go, Lantern."
After buying the tickets, Bai Qiuchao smiled at the lamp.
"Okay..."
Gao Songdeng nodded hesitantly, then snuggled up to Bai Qiu like a little penguin.
Enter the planetarium.
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...
Sanka Chuka subconsciously placed her right hand on her chest, feeling her heart pounding.
That was the feeling of my heart racing that I only experienced when I was with Qiu and Xiangzi.
……
About an hour later, the radio announced the end of the program.
"This concludes our stargazing event. Please leave in an orderly manner, and watch your step as you exit..."
Meanwhile, the planetarium also lit up.
Gao Songdeng had just gotten up from the recliner when he excitedly spoke to Bai Qiu.
"Autumn is the story of Altair and Vega."
"Just like you said last time!"
Excitement caused Gao Songdeng's face to flush slightly.
"That's right! I'm a professional."
Bai Qiu replied shamelessly that, as a Chinese, he could easily recount several different versions of the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meeting on the Magpie Bridge, in more detail than a planetarium.
Then, Bai Qiu said with a smile,
"Let's talk outside."
Takamatsu nodded quickly, and the two walked happily toward the exit.
Therefore, they did not notice that behind them, Mitsumi Hatsuka was staring intently at them with an incredulous expression.
What did Gao Song just say? Aki, that person's name is Aki... Is that true?
Yes, Sanjiao Chuhua knows Gao Songdeng, after all, she used to be the lead singer of Xiangzi Band.
And... there's also the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.
Xiao Qiu had told me 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.
