“Our pregnancy will be discovered. Even if we find someone to help us give birth, we will still risk being blamed. Yue may not acknowledge the child, and the outside world will generally regard us as bad women who have been forced into this situation.”
"Mu has experienced the power of public opinion, and I have also been implicated. When I was dating Yue, everyone should be able to understand the trouble of being envied by others."
Toyokawa Shoko's point of view was naturally for everyone, not just for herself.
“Xiangzi is right. If Yue doesn’t accept it, she’ll have to be a single mother.” Shiina Riki listened to her analysis and shook her head in frustration.
"It's alright. Even if Yue doesn't accept the child, he'll still consider your feelings and not make it public. He does love you, so he'll take your feelings into account."
Nagasaki Motoyo keenly sensed that Shoko had her own agenda and was unwilling to do anything that would threaten her position.
“It’s better to raise Yue’s child than to marry someone else.” Shiina Tatsuki thought about the worst-case scenario. As long as they didn’t cause trouble, it was impossible for the news to be exposed.
Perhaps many years later, the elders of the Yagami family will agree to let the child return home? Who wouldn't want more children in their family?
Especially boys.
"What's your opinion, Oden?" Nagasaki Motoyo smiled sweetly, having roughly guessed Shoko's purpose.
"I...I will learn how to be a mother."
Takamatsu's voice lasted a long time.
"Then let's put it this way—"
Toyokawa Shoko waited until the lamp finished speaking before speaking. She interrupted Su Shi and asked very seriously.
"We can decide our own destiny, but can a mother arbitrarily add the risk of not having a father to a new life?"
“It takes awareness to carry the burden of other people’s lives. It’s too difficult for us to be both a father and a mother. How can we decide the future at this age?”
Both Riki and Tama looked at Toyokawa Shoko, as did Mutsu, whose attention was focused on the guitar.
"Xiangzi is indeed the kind of person who can say such things, after all, he has already experienced the life of carrying others on his back."
Nagasaki Suyo chuckled.
Meeting the gazes of the group looking over, he said in an extremely mocking tone, "If Xiangzi doesn't want to, he can just unilaterally reject my plan. There's no need to use the pretense of doing it for Deng and Lixi's good. Just like the previous plan, wasn't it to let Deng and Lixi test the waters first?"
"In Xiangzi's heart, family has always been more important than himself, which is why he repeatedly tried to stop me from searching for traces of Yue, fearing that he would take his anger out on her..."
Toyokawa Shoko stood up angrily.
"Enough, Su Shi. I also want to get back together with Yue, more than anyone else. But as the eldest daughter of the family, I have to be careful about my relationship with the Yagami family, which is why I didn't participate in the last operation."
“Xiang…” Both Deng and Lixi were startled.
Even Li Xi, who was most eager to take the lead, backed down, and the two of them were caught between Su Shi and Xiang Zi, who were going all out.
"Really? But I heard Yue say that Xiangzi wants to run for prime minister and has been trying to get his help."
"The method of getting pregnant won't work for you, right? That's why you're so eager to deny it, ignoring Lixi and Deng's consent. You could have let them do it, and you could have thought of another way, right?"
"Actually, the Bitter Cry should have ended long ago, but Xiangzi, for her own purposes, pulled in Lixi and Deng, used Mulai as a messenger between me and Liang, and revived the Bitter Cry in order to get me back."
"That's not true! I also considered the feelings of Tama and Riki." Toyokawa Shoko clenched her fists.
"Is that so? But without Lixi and Deng, Xiangzi alone can't move me, right? That's why you have to use the excuse of considering their needs to rebuild Kulaixi Cry."
"Xiangzi, you're only thinking about yourself."
Nagasaki Motoyo adjusted the little red hat on her head.
I got it from Misa Amane. It's really useful. It makes my thinking much more agile. Everyone close to me has one.
The lamp and Lixi's silent gaze were burning hot.
Toyokawa Shoko felt like she was being roasted over a fire.
She did indeed have the idea of taking advantage of everyone.
They were determined to do it, since it would benefit them as well, but Su Shi pointed it out mercilessly.
"No...that's not how it is. Ku Lai Xi Ku is our home, we're going to be a band for life..."
Toyokawa Shoko covered her face, large tears falling between her fingers.
It looks like he's explaining to the people around him, but it's more like he's trying to convince himself.
"If suffering and crying are more important, why run for prime minister? Once you're prime minister, you won't have time to play in a band, will you?"
Chapter 135: Nagasaki Motoyo
"During the days of forming the 'Bitterly Crying' group, everyone taught me many things I didn't know before, and we all grew..."
Shoko Toyokawa choked back tears as she defended herself.
“Xiangzi isn’t that kind of person,” Lixi also spoke up for her.
Takamatsu lowered his head deeply, and Wakaba Muku looked at Su Shi with pleading eyes, hoping she would stop talking.
"Then why spend time on the band right before the election? They say it's their last performance before disbanding, but wouldn't it be more normal to do this after the election is won?"
"I can't bear to part with the band, which is going to participate in the election and then spend time playing before the election. Even if it's just as a memento, the four of you can still maintain the nominal 'bitterness and tears,' right?"
"Xiangzi's words are contradictory."
Nagasaki Motoyo's voice wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear amidst the breathless sounds mixed with faint sobs.
"That's enough. Xiangzi only wanted to part amicably at first. It's not a big deal to put on a show to attract the public. Isn't it normal that he won't have time to play with the band after winning the election? Xiangzi also has to do things for the family."
Shiina Tatsuki stepped forward at an unexpected time.
"Moreover, as members of the 'Bitterly Crying' group, shouldn't we help Shoko if she wants to run for prime minister? When Kita was running for representative of Shimokitazawa Ward, we and the neighboring band, the Kintai Band, also tweeted our hope that she would be elected."
Because of a poem called "Returning Home" in the textbook, Kita Yuyo has been nicknamed "Returning Home" since junior high school. Before she joined a band, her dream was to become a civil servant, and perhaps she could suggest deleting the poem after she got promoted.
"Su Shi, don't be angry, and Xiang, don't be sad."
Gao Songdeng looked left and right, then took out a piece of paper to wipe Xiangzi's tears.
Wahaha Mutsu, who had been silently watching from the sidelines, stopped muttering to himself, "Sho is going to break."
"Sorry, Xiangzi and I never really get along."
Nagasaki Motoyo's expression was complicated.
"I'll whisper sweet nothings to Yue in my ear, after all, I'm one of those who suffer and cry too."
...
"Do you think Xiangzi would be a better candidate for prime minister? What are your reasons?"
"Xiangzi is not afraid of authority, upholds filial piety, and has experienced the life of ordinary people, so he knows the world of the lower classes and has a large fan base..."
After a blissful encounter, Nagasaki Motoyo spoke in a languid tone, praising Shoko's words.
"This is what Xiangzi told you, right?" Yagami Light had already heard her say about the reconstruction of Kulai Xiku, and thought she came here to put Misa Amane on the cuckold's horns.
Unexpectedly, it was an internal recommendation.
"They've found out! I knew Xiangzi was unreliable."
Nagasaki Motoyo stuck out her tongue. When they were dating, Yagami Light was an excellent lover who almost never had outbursts of emotion.
"Actually, I have already decided to support the Chitanda family."
Those adorned in silk robes are not silkworm farmers; even Light Yagami, as Kira, would respect reasonable procedures.
Only by achieving global unification in his name, abolishing competition and military attrition among nations, can he be qualified to slow down and reduce excess to make up for deficiency.
"The Chitanda family? The agricultural cooperative is making fruit prices so high!"
Motoyo Nagasaki wasn't very knowledgeable about current affairs, but she did know some things about the Chitanda family, an agricultural clan.
"That wasn't decided by the Chitanda family. On the contrary, if a family that loves the land and agriculture is made prime minister, they will seek benefits for the corresponding people."
At this point, Light Yagami couldn't help but laugh.
If he hadn't supported the Chitanda family, Chitanda Eru, who had just graduated, might have formed a band and debuted to revitalize the economy of Kanagawa Prefecture.
"Yue still really likes those people who farm."
Nagasaki Motoyo shuddered as she thought about the blisters on her hands from working in the fields, and the stark contrast between her skin under her clothes and her bare skin after returning to her room under the scorching sun.
She didn't deny the farmers' point of view; on the contrary, it was precisely because she had experienced their lives that she knew how difficult their lives were.
"Workers and farmers are the creators of the world. Their sweat has built skyscrapers and fed countless people. Even if Toyokawa were prime minister, he might not have done as well as Chitanda."
Incorruptible officials have different priorities. Just as some advocate war and others peace, Light Yagami naturally wants to protect the rights of the majority of people who are struggling, not those who have already become rich.
“But…” Nagasaki Motoyo was unwilling to give up.
People who want nothing often end up wanting more.
The situation with Deng and Lixi is easy to handle; as long as she gets pregnant and gives birth first, it won't have much of an impact.
"Let her be nominated for the UN Security Council."
Light Yagami casually decided the fate of Shoko Toyokawa.
"The early Kira needed to be blindly followed, but the current Kira cannot be overly deified. What is needed is someone like Xiangzi to convey a concept."
He poked his finger into Nagasaki Motoyo's slightly open mouth, gently pinching and playing with her slippery tongue, which caused her to cough slightly.
Light Yagami explained, "Kira makes mistakes too. Some people take Kira's words as gospel and think that those who have been punished by Kira should be avoided and sever ties. This is wrong."
"Xiangzi perfectly embodied both filial piety and the principles of being a decent human being; she was actually more suited to be a member of the United Nations Board of Governors."
In previous chapters, the UN Security Council member, who was found to have protected others during an interrogation by Ichiji Nijika, has already stepped down.
"Can Xiangzi become the one who connects with Kira?" Nagasaki Motoyo almost bit his finger.
Given the influence of the Yagami family, if they were to fully support him, Xiangzi would indeed have a chance to be elected.
The Yagami family controls almost all of the modern, lucrative industries, with a vast network connecting all parts of the world.
"If you're elected, that's good; you'll be in the first batch of board members."
"Then why can't Kira be overly deified?" Nagasaki Motoyo had only a vague understanding; she didn't know much about current affairs.
“Kira used to need a dictatorship to unify the world’s voice and do what He wanted. Now there are people with adolescent syndrome who have followed Kira.”
"In the future, there will be a group of absolutely reliable people who will take over Kira's rights and continue and carry forward Kira's ideals."
Light Yagami is quite open-minded, or perhaps he simply lacks the power to change his mind, but the world is now developing in the direction of the ideal world he envisioned.
"We will live in the ideal world that Kira created."
He kissed her, and Nagasaki Motoyo responded passionately.
The imprint of one's thoughts cannot be concealed. An official can be so cold-blooded as to refuse any requests for privileges or protection from relatives without hesitation, even for the smallest act of willfulness.
This is abnormal in itself. One or two people could be explained, but there are hundreds of thousands of such people, scattered all over the world.
There has been much speculation from the outside world, and these claims have been verified.
—There are brainwashed adolescents with adolescent syndrome working for Kira.
Chapter 136: Kitagawa Sea Dream
Light Yagami guessed correctly; Motoyo Nagasaki did indeed want to collect his fluids to help Akari Takamatsu and Riki get pregnant.
He went along with it, letting Su Shi act as he pleased.
Nagasaki Motoyo isn't stupid; if she really wants to do something, she'll wait until she's born with a immunity from death.
It is speculated that the girls who have been touched will not awaken their abilities, but a new ability user will be created.
That is, patients with syndrome syndrome.
Light Yagami decides to take the initiative to get to know his exes.
Perhaps there are those who have awakened but remain silent.
After returning home, Light Yagami reviewed Shoko Toyokawa's application for a seat on the UN Security Council. Given this connection, he was able to ask whether she had awakened her abilities.
"Director Xiao Xiang?"
Misa Amane cut up a plate of cucumber salad with sugar and fed it to her boyfriend from time to time.
"Xiangzi has a high probability of having a syndrome."
It's also possible that the diagnosis of syndrome is based on the popularity of the character.
"Won't Yue get back together with her?"
Misa Amane has a slightly snacky taste; she bites into a cucumber and makes a crunchy sound.
