Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

Matsueda Asami didn't think much of it; instead, she said with relief:

"Hey, it seems you're quite lucky, Kamishiro-kun."

"I actually ran into a junior high school classmate here."

Tachikawa Sanae smiled and said:

"Perhaps, this is fate!"

"I never expected we'd meet here again, Kamishiro-kun."

Shiro Shiro was somewhat surprised.

These coincidental encounters with Tachikawa Sanae over the past few days have truly baffled him.

Let's leave it at that, starting with the tram ride to school.

Since everyone is a student, it's normal to run into each other on the way back to school.

As for the piano competition, it was just right.

After all, Sanae Tachikawa's cousin was the previous champion.

To run into each other again today would be too much of a coincidence.

The coincidence is so strange.

But perhaps he's just overthinking things.

Kamidai Bai Feng asked:

"By the way, Tachikawa-san, what brings you here all of a sudden?"

Sanae Tachikawa pointed to her cousin's parents and her own parents, who were eating nearby, and said:

"Didn't my cousin get second place in the competition yesterday?"

"So today, our parents took us out to relax and unwind, and also as a way of repaying us for our hard work in studying during this period."

Kamidai Bai Feng suddenly realized:

"Oh, that's it."

"That's really good."

"After all, winning second place in that kind of piano competition is really impressive."

"It's time to celebrate."

“Yes, that’s right.” Sanae Tachikawa nodded and smiled in reply. Although she wanted to say something more, she felt it wasn’t appropriate to disturb their family gathering, so she waved goodbye and said, “I’m just here to say hello. I should head back now. Goodbye, Kamishiro-kun. Goodbye, Auntie, my sister, and my teacher too.”

"Bye-bye." Shiro Shiro waved goodbye to her.

"Bye-bye!" X3

The three of them also bid farewell to Sanae's stance.

But after she left.

Erina Kamishiro thought to herself with a sarcastic tone.

Goodbye, Kamishiro-kun! Goodbye, Auntie, Sister, and Teacher too?!

Ha ha! ! !

Who are your sister and aunt?

They really know how to freeload!

Although Ayaka Sato also felt something was off, she didn't think too much about it and simply asked out of curiosity:

"Bai Feng, could this Tachikawa-san be one of your best friends from junior high?"

"Why do you seem to have a very good relationship with Bai Feng?"

Matsueda Asami and Kamishiro Erina also looked at him with curiosity.

Shiro Shiro shook his head and said:

"so so."

We were classmates for a period of time in junior high school, but we basically weren't classmates again after that.

I haven't talked to her much; generally speaking, we're probably just ordinary classmates.

Ayaka Sato inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief and smiled:

"So this is ah."

"It's quite normal to chat for a bit when you bump into someone on the street."

Erina Kamishiro had an "I knew it" look on her face.

Matsueda Asami exclaimed in surprise:

"It seems you were quite popular in middle school, Kamishiro-kun."

"When we ran into our junior high school classmates, they even came up to say hello."

Kamidai Bai Feng smiled awkwardly and said:

"It's alright."

He knew that his predecessor in junior high school was basically an ordinary person, neither particularly popular nor unpopular.

But forget it.

Anyway, it's all in the past.

"Where do you plan to go after you've eaten?" he asked.

Upon hearing this, Erina Kamishiro and Ayaka Sato suddenly snapped out of their daze and quickly checked the time.

They realized with a start that it was already past eleven, almost midnight, and quickly gave them instructions:

"Let's eat quickly, the park performance is about to start!"

"Yes, if we don't grab a good spot now, the tourists will block our view and we won't be able to see the performance at all!"

Ayaka Sato blinked:

"It seems like there was such a thing."

"But I haven't been here for a long time, so I don't know if the park performances have changed."

Jindai Bai Feng suggested:

"In that case, let's eat quickly and then go take a look."

-

It was close to midnight.

Shiro Shiro and the others arrived on the streets of Universal Studios.

At this time, many tourists were already standing on the street waiting for the park performance.

Looking around, both sides of the road were filled with people.

Even far into the distance, the area was filled with people.

However, they were lucky enough to find a good spot where all four of them could stand and watch.

Even so, Erina Kamishiro couldn't help but complain:

"Luckily we arrived a bit early, otherwise we probably wouldn't have been able to get a good spot to watch the performance later."

Ayaka Sato nodded and said:

"Well, indeed."

"Luckily I jogged over, otherwise I would have ended up like everyone else, unable to find a good spot to watch."

"But speaking of which, I wonder what will be different this year."

The petite and adorable Matsueda Asami also jumped up excitedly.

"I don't know, but I've heard it's different every year."

"Anyway, I plan to take pictures this year as a souvenir of our trip."

Erina Kamishiro finally realized what was happening and exclaimed with delight:

"I'd like to take a picture and share it with my friends!"

Not a moment.

It's already midnight.

The surrounding streets started playing cheerful background music right on time.

At the end of the street, a group of dancers dressed in gorgeous costumes gradually came into view.

Their faces beamed with undisguised joy, and every movement and expression was infectious.

To the rhythm of the music, they twirled and jumped, spreading a joyful atmosphere to everyone present.

Behind these dancers, one giant parade vehicle after another slowly drove by.

These vehicles are beautifully designed, like dream trains that have stepped out of a fairy tale world.

The staff on the bus were dressed in various cartoon mascot costumes. They waved and danced, interacting with the tourists below, making people feel as if they were in a dreamy fairy tale world.

The whole scene was filled with laughter and joy, and both adults and children were infected by this happy atmosphere.

Everyone couldn't help but clap along with the music.

Erina Kamishiro, Asami Matsueda, and Ayaka Sato were also infected by the joyful atmosphere, and they all smiled and swayed gently.

Although Shiro Kaede wasn't among them, he was still affected by the joyful atmosphere and felt much better.

Halfway through the garden party.

The background music suddenly became faster-paced.

The dancers smiled and waved, gesturing to the tourists that they could come and dance with them.

Some dancers and staff dressed as cartoon mascots would even come up to tourists and invite them to join the dance.
