Tokyo girls have a big problem

Chapter 264 Staying Home Today

Stepping into the living room, the scene was startling; the four members of the Sunny Day Band instinctively stood up.

"As for."

Before Aoyama Risa could finish speaking, Miyako Yaeko instructed, "Sit."

Her tone made everything seem reasonable, and it was only right that the others stood up to greet her.

Ono Mizuki said that the pretty waitress had already knelt down to set the table for her—a kneeling service for everyone.

Fortunately, kneeling service is only found in high-end hotels, inns, and restaurants. Where Aoyama Ri is working part-time, it's relatively low-key—no, it's more humane—so you don't have to kneel to serve food.

Start eating breakfast again.

No one spoke.

"How have you been lately?" Miyako asked Aoi.

"Too hot," saw Ai reply.

“You didn’t get tanned.” Miyako looked her over. “At first glance, you’re still the fairest, like snow.”

"If you come, you won't be me anymore."

"I've recently learned to be humble."

"You've learned to praise others too."

—What's going on with these two?

Is the relationship good or bad?
After dinner, Miyako followed Ai back to her room. Her luggage had been delivered, and the two of them were probably going to divide up the territory.

"Where do you want to go today?" Aoyama asked.

The Ono sisters and the band members would most likely not discuss this matter in front of Miyako Yaeko, so he wanted to gather their opinions first and then bring it up himself.

“It’s not okay to go out every day,” my wife, Mingxiang, said thoughtfully, arms crossed.

“Even when you’re in school, you get a day and a half off each week,” Bess Sakurako said.

"We plan to practice all day at the hotel!" drummer Mengshi declared, as if making a vow.

“Hmm!” F. Rino played the role of WoWanWonder.

Aoyama Osamu overestimated the band girls and underestimated Miyako Yaeko.

"Are you serious?" he asked to confirm.

The four of them nodded at the same time.

Aoyama looked at the Ono sisters.

“Actually, we’re a bit tired too,” Mika Ono said.

“Last night, my sister and I were saying that the lavender season is over, so we might as well skip Hokkaido this summer vacation, watch the fireworks in Kyoto, and then go back to Tokyo to study and prepare for the cultural festival. We’ll go again when it snows in winter.” Mizuki Ono’s voice was cute, but her tone was serious.

It should be true.

Going out under the scorching sun every day really makes you want to stay indoors all day.

“Then let’s rest at the hotel today,” said Aoyama Risa.

He then looked at Elsa Tianyu: "Extra training today?"

“No.” Elsa Tenyu refused.

Two hours a day was enough for her, and besides, training couldn't foster their relationship. At that time, Aoyama Rin was a complete devil.

"Alright!" Akika stood up briskly. "Although we were forced into this, it's a good opportunity for intensive training. Let's all do our best today!"

"Yes!"

"it is good!"

Unlike before, Mika Ono now responds as well.

They immediately went to the practice room to begin today's training.

Elsa Tenyu also left the dining table, picked up her bamboo sword, walked into the courtyard, and wielded it under the shade of a tree.

She deserves any honors she receives.

"And you?" Aoyama asked Ono Mizuki.

“I have to perform a scene for each character, so I’m very busy,” said Mizuki Ono. “Riki-san, come practice my lines with me.”

"Then I want to play the male lead."

"You're the one who's with me, not the other way around!"

What do you want to act in?

"Of course, it's the female lead!"

“Then aren’t I the male lead?” Aoyama asked with a smile.

“Hmm~” Ono Mizuki made a sound that she was unwilling to admit, but had to.

She immediately changed the subject: "I'll send you the script!"

"Okay, I'll go tell Aoi and the others that we won't be going out today," said Aoyama Rido.

"it is good."

Aoyama Ryo arrived at the entrance of 'Seiran'.

The wooden doors of the 'Knot' Inn are very new, like a newly painted picture, unlike those famous old inns that are hundreds of years old.

Those old hotels were expensive, but the facilities were outdated, and you had to unlock the door with a key and then turn a rusty handle.

He knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

"Enter."

Which of the two is the owner of this room?
Aoyama Risa thought he could sow discord and then watch the show.

Just in case—specifically, just in case with the system—he still spoke first before going in.

“It’s me,” he said.

"Come in," said Miyako Yaeko.

Seeing that Ai didn't object, Aoyama Ryo went inside.

As expected, there wasn't much to see; not even a bra or pantyhose that had been forgotten to be put away were there, which was quite disappointing.

With a little precaution, the [Talent: Anime Accident] won't work?
Is this all the power a talent can have?
—tsk
"I'm taking a break today," said Aoyama Risa.

Miyako smiled slightly, clearly understanding why.

“Don’t worry about me,” she said. “I’m not the student council president during the summer vacation.”

“I will talk to them,” Aoyama Rido said.

"Oh, right, Aoyama-kun, that book," Ai said, as if remembering something.

"A book? A gift from Miyako-san?" Aoyama asked, puzzled.

“I was killing time on the way here, and when we got to our destination, I didn’t want to take it anymore. Since you’re not a servant, I said: ‘Here, take it.’” Jian Shang explained in a flat tone.

Aoyama Risa looked at Miyako Yaeko.

"I really mean it," the stunningly beautiful girl said with a smile.

"It's just a book. I won't accept anything else," Aoyama said, feigning a bit of anger.

This little thing won't affect his mood.

He used to work part-time, and some people took care of him because he was young and handsome, while others bullied him because he was young and good-looking. He experienced a lot.

Miyako glanced at Mikami Ai; if it were any other club president, that glance would probably have scared them half to death.

She glanced back at him without a care in the world.

"Where do you plan to sleep?" Aoyama asked curiously.

"Do you want to join?" Jian Shang Ai asked, looking at him.

"Ok?"

“We were arguing about who should sleep in the closet, and your arrival is just in time,” Miyako Yaeko said with a hint of a smile.

"Goodbye." Aoyama Ryo left.

A second later, he poked his head out again: "Let me know who won and who lost, thank you."

This time he really left.

This also resolved the conflict between the two stunningly beautiful girls; they could fight however they wanted, but they couldn't let others watch them.

As she passed through the living room, Mika Ono muttered to herself into her phone, like a young nun with flowing hair chanting scriptures.

In the courtyard, Elsa Tenyu wiped her sweat and continued to swing her sword.

Aoyama admired her greatly, but he was also afraid. Kendo was Elsa Amayu's way of life. She had such great perseverance in kendo, and she would not show him any mercy in love.

"Wait a moment, I'll be right back." Aoyama Risa headed to the practice room.

The girls have already started tuning their instruments.

“Hold on for a moment,” Aoyama Risa said loudly. “Miyaeko said that we don’t need to pay too much attention to her. She’s not the student council president during summer vacation.”

"Really?!" Drummer Mengshi exclaimed in surprise.

"If you take that seriously, you're being too naive," Bess Sakura said, sounding like someone who'd been there all along.

Everyone looked at her.

Sakura, wearing a bass guitar, said, "The bottom line for those in positions of power's 'Don't worry about me' is 'Don't make me angry.' Depending on the person, for some, the bottom line of 'Don't worry about me' is even 'Don't make me unhappy.'"

She glanced at everyone and said, "Even if you don't understand the psychology of those in positions of power, you can at least judge by appearance, right?"

"What do you mean?" Aoyama asked. "Miyayo Yaeko doesn't seem like a good person?"

“You can say that, but I can’t,” Bess Sakurako said.

Miyako Yaeko certainly doesn't seem that approachable.

That head of enchanted black hair seemed alive, ready to swarm and ensnare any offender as soon as they appeared.

“But there’s one thing I’m sure of,” Bess Sakura strummed the strings a couple of times to test the feel, “the student council president said that, so they won’t bother us during summer vacation.”

“I’m confused,” F. Rino said, puzzled.

“Me too,” drummer Mengshi said. “Senior, you just said we shouldn’t take her words seriously, but now you’re saying she won’t cause us any trouble—should we trust the student council president or not?”

“When I was little, I followed Mikami Ai around and had indirect contact with this young lady from the Miya family, so I know her fairly well,” Bess Sakurako said.

"Hmm." Akika Wagatsuma gestured for her to continue.

"When you agree to something from someone you love, you need to distinguish whether she is joking or serious. If she is serious, she will not turn it into a joke just because the conditions are unfavorable to her."

Aoyama Ryo thought it was fairly accurate.

He admired Bess Sakurako; at such a young age, she was already able to see through others.

At the same time, I feel sorry for her. At the age of learning to ride a bicycle, she already needs to see through other people.

As long as the girls want to continue, Aoyama will do everything in his power to keep the band going and give them an island to escape the outside world.

"Where's Miyako Yaeko?" he asked with a smile, seemingly oblivious to what was happening, still chatting idly.

"She will always keep her promises, but if she suffers a loss, she will make the other party pay a hundredfold afterwards!"

"A hundredfold return?" Mika Ono asked.

"It's a hundred times harsher than the Code of Hammurabi, which advocates 'an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.' Littering will result in execution!"

"Okay!" Akika Gasai's tone was as if she had lifted herself up. "Let's start practicing!"

"Thank you for your hard work." Aoyama Ryo left the room.

Aoyama returned to the living room and sat down next to Ono Mizuki.

"Brother, I've sent you the script." Ono Mizuki couldn't wait any longer.

"Which section?" Aoyama asked.

"Here," Ono Mizuki leaned closer and pointed, "We'll start with supporting roles to hone our acting skills, and then suddenly become the lead!"

"Do you really want to be the main character?" Aoyama asked.

"of course!"

“Okay, I’ll help you!” Aoyama Riya lifted himself up.

"Hoo~~" Ono Mizuki was a little nervous.

In the forest school episode, she was completely a 'tree' character, but this time, she wants to get a role with lines and make her official debut.

Suddenly, Aoyama thought of something: "Mizuki, there aren't any kissing scenes, right?"

"How could there be kissing scenes in a school stage play!"

"It appears in many novels, comics, and animations."

"You should still get a job. If you don't, you become unrealistic," Ono Mizuki said. "No kissing scenes!"

"And what about hugs?"

"nor!"

"Holding hands?"

"."

“I understand. I will definitely not let you be chosen as the female lead. You can play the role of ‘Tree’ for the rest of your life!” said Aoyama Rika.

"It was just holding hands!"

"You're not boyfriend and girlfriend, but you're holding hands. Don't you think that's indecent?"

"That was acting!"

"There are too many cases where fake relationships have become real, like Nicky Wu and Liu Shishi!"

"Huh? Who is that?" Ono Mizuki asked in confusion.

“Gen Hoshino and Yui Aragaki,” said Osamu Aoyama.

Why are Gen Hoshino and Yui Aragaki also called Wu, Wu something?

"That's not important. Are you still nervous?"

"I think you just didn't know how to explain it, so you said it on purpose to ease my tension, right?" Ono Mizuki said irritably.

"You actually doubt my love for you?"

"Humph!"

After playfully bickering for a while, the two began rehearsing.

The title of the play is "If I—".

Aoyama read his lines aloud: "'Yao, what do you plan to do?'"

Ono Mizuki said, "'If I win the national championship, I will confess my feelings to Aoyama-kun.'"

Aoyama Riko pondered, "This Aoyama-kun, could it be me?"

"elder brother!"

"Hmm," Aoyama Osamu continued, "'Does winning the championship really have to be the goal?'"

"'Of course not, but wouldn't falling in love before the national competition affect your performance? On the contrary, not confessing your feelings can motivate you!'"

"Is this a veiled criticism of the wind band?"

"Aoyama Ri!!"

"Okay, okay, 'Don't let yourself regret it.'"

Ono Mizuki said, "'Hmm!'"

"He'll definitely regret it. Let me see. See? He regrets it. There's even a crying scene," said Aoyama Risa.

"Ouch!!!" Ono Mizuki stood up angrily, taller than Aoyama Osamu.

"Not only did you fail to get Aoyama-kun, you also lost the national tournament. No wonder you're crying! Stop fighting! Stop fighting!"

Ono Mizuki unleashed a flurry of punches at Aoyama Risa.

In the courtyard, Elsa Tenyu couldn't help but sheathe her sword and watch. Aoyama Risa, whom she could never normally touch, was now completely suppressed by Ono Mizuki, who could strike wherever she wanted.

So this is the strongest sword – family affection.

As long as he marries Aoyama Ri, he can beat him like this, right?

Elsa Tianyu walked into the living room, returned to her bedroom, took a shower, changed her clothes, and went back to the living room.

“I’m free right now, is there anything I can do for you?” she said.

"Huh? Is that okay?" Ono Mizuki asked cautiously.

“Mm.” Elsa Tianyu nodded.

"Well—I'll send the script to my senior. Oh, and it'll be a secret, okay?"

"it is good."

Because she had an extra person to practice with, Ono Mizuki couldn't help but laugh out loud while handing out the script.

Aoyama Risa held his phone in one hand and rested his cheek on the other, watching from the side.

I remembered a small incident from the past. When Ono Mizuki was still a child, the school assigned homework to draw a family portrait.

She drew Ono Mika wearing flowers, herself holding a rabbit doll, and Aoyama Osamu carrying Master Roshi's turtle shell.

After finishing the drawing, he held it up with both hands and laughed, "Hee! Hee! Hee!"

Aoyama Risa couldn't help but smile.

When we moved, I took that painting out and reminisced about it.

“Okay, let’s continue. This scene features exactly three people,” said Mizuki Ono.

"Hmm." Elsa Tenyu also noticed how cute Ono Mizuki was; she wished she were her younger sister.

"Brother, you say 'brother' first? Brother!!"

"Huh?" Aoyama Risa came back to her senses.

"What are you thinking? Let's begin!"

"Is this how you ask for a favor?" Aoyama Risa said slowly.

"Hmm—" Ono Mizuki let out a sound of suppressed anger.

Aoyama Osamu ignored her and said into her phone, "'If I get a university recommendation, I'll confess to Mikami.' That must be Mikami Ai! What's wrong with your drama club?!"

“That’s where the humor is! Mind your own business!” Ono Mizuki said.

"Aoyama-kun, you've already received your university recommendation," said Elsa Amayu.

“That was a line!” Aoyama Rido said.
