Chapter 228 Flawless

Kato Megumi wore her hair in a ponytail.

When Kobayashi Sora lowers her head, you can see the elegant curve of her nape.

Against the backdrop of her black hair and bathed in the hazy light of the aquarium, Kato Megumi's nape seemed to possess some strange magic, calling out to Kobayashi Sora.

Kato Megumi seemed to notice his gaze and bit her lower lip slightly, looking somewhat flustered.

The next moment, she pushed away Kobayashi Sora's arm and warned in a low voice, "There are children here."

So... what if there were no children?

Kobayashi Sora held Kato Megumi's hand and walked with her along the marked route.

In order, they are brightly colored fish that live in warm waters, and wondrous creatures that live in the deep sea.

The lighting in the jellyfish area was dim, and the light, floating jellyfish drifted in the water like floating cotton candy.

There were many couples taking pictures around. Kobayashi Sora took out her camera, turned off the flash, took a few steps back, half-squatted, and raised the camera. "Hui."

"Hmm?" Kato Megumi turned her head when she heard the call, and Kobayashi Sora pressed the shutter at that moment.

This is a little trick for taking photos. Compared to a carefully posed expression, this kind of subconscious reaction feels more natural.

"Hmm..." Noticing his little scheme, Kato Megumi's eyes darted around, and she beckoned to Kobayashi Sora.

Kobayashi Sora immediately understood when she saw the couples taking photos together around her.

He stood next to Kato Megumi, raised his camera, and counted, "One, two, three."

chirp~

Kato Megumi kissed him on the cheek without warning.

Kobayashi Sora's eyes widened, and her hand instinctively pressed the shutter.

"Don't delete this one," Kato Megumi whispered in Kobayashi Sora's ear.

I won't delete it if I don't want to.

Who's afraid of who?

"What did I tell you?" Kasumigaoka Utaha raised an eyebrow. "This is what you call researching."

She has completely come to terms with it.

Dog food smeared on my face.

There was nowhere to hide.

There's nowhere to hide.

Anyway, there's no way to resist.

Then just enjoy it.

By using Kobayashi Sora and Kato Megumi as inspiration, both the setting and the plot were ready.

Eriri snorted softly and turned her head to look to the side.

So...

That's how couples get along.

So, you see.

All of the previous thoughts were just wishful thinking and illusions.

With your loved one right beside you, how could you possibly want to be just friends with her?

Not to mention maintaining distance.

Continuing along the route, a corner of the aquarium was packed with people.

There are about fifteen Humboldt penguins in the tank that recreates the rocky shore.

It seemed like a penguin show was about to take place, as a zookeeper wearing a wireless microphone emerged from the depths.

The group went over and listened to the zookeeper describe the characteristics of Humboldt penguins.

The main difference is that each animal has a different pattern on its belly, while siblings or parent-child pairs may have similar patterns.

The man picked up a penguin so that the person on the other side of the glass could see it more clearly.

Compared to most penguins in the world, Humboldt penguins prefer to live in warmer regions, and their feathers have become particularly short to adapt to the warmer climate.

The story also includes a funny anecdote about two penguins.

Humboldt penguins are monogamous, with both partners taking turns incubating the eggs.

The zookeepers had been puzzled because a pair of penguins had a very good relationship but had never had a baby.

The main problem is that it doesn't lay eggs.

Once they enter the breeding season, they, like other penguins, begin collecting pebbles to build their nests together.

They collect the most pebbles and build the largest nests.

But it just won't lay eggs.

After some investigation, it was discovered that both penguins were male.

The zookeepers also tried to introduce penguins of other sexes, but they were unable to separate them.

In the end, all we could do was let it be.

Love is a matter of personal freedom.

We often tell it as a joke.

Until one day, they began to incubate a rock of just the right size as an egg.

As time went by, the other penguins started raising their babies, while they took turns incubating the eggs.

Although it's a little heartbreaking, it's still good news.

This means they have the ability and patience to care for the baby.

So the zookeeper gave them an egg from a penguin that had a habit of crushing its own eggs.

They take turns watching the eggs during incubation; while one incubates the eggs, the other goes to collect more pebbles and food.

Soon, the little penguin hatched.

The zookeeper gave a shout and threw the small fish into the water.

The penguins jumped into the water together and rushed forward like bullets, looking almost like they were flying.

The zookeeper pointed to one of them, which was the penguin with two fathers.

Kobayashi Sora seems to understand why the ticket seller said, "Couple tickets are not limited by gender."

“I feel like I could write a short story about this,” Kasumigaoka Utaha said thoughtfully. “Childhood friends, innocent and carefree—both are boys.”

"Are you a devil?" Eriri was speechless.

Readers will go crazy if they see this.

Eriri thought for a moment.

Who knows where they'll go crazy?

Others may not know, but at least her mother, Sayuri Sawamura, would like it very much.

After leaving the aquarium, the next stop is the shopping street.

Just like Kobayashi Sora said, when you're unsure where to go, a multi-functional setting like a shopping street is a good choice.

Coffee shop, restaurant, shopping mall, arcade...anywhere is fine.

Eriri looked at a general store located on the outskirts of the shopping street.

The rather old wooden house has open glass windows, and the shelves at the front of the shop are filled with pure Japanese-style gifts such as washi paper crafts and kaleidoscopes.

It evokes a sense of being detached from the world and independent.

Eriri approached, holding a sketchbook, about to draw a quick sketch.

My gaze paused for a moment, and I noticed that the store displayed ukiyo-e T-shirts and ninja merchandise, which are popular with foreigners.

Ah, this...

Eriri stopped writing and went into the store to take a look.

The counter inside the store displays gacha prizes and other otaku-related merchandise, such as card games and board games, for seasoned otaku.

Goodness, this place is full of hidden talents!

“Not bad.” Kasumigaoka Utaha looked around. “It’s a very suitable scene.”

"Huh?" Eriri turned her head. "This place feels so out of place, doesn't it?"

"Clearly, this is a collection of gifts and otaku flag merchandise primarily targeting foreign customers." Kasumigaoka Utaha's lips curled up. "Doesn't that mean... this place is the perfect stage for a foreign otaku heroine to make her entrance?"

Eriri had a bad feeling.

If this plot continues to develop...

"Simply put, the story begins with the arrival of the half-Japanese, half-British otaku heroine, Kawamura Spada Kirari, at this store," Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled. "The 'loser-type' heiress, Kawamura Spada Kirari, unable to suppress her desires, pretends to buy a ukiyo-e T-shirt before heading straight to the otaku section, where she embarrasses herself in front of the male protagonist..."

"I knew it!" Eriri's anger surged. "You didn't even change your name!"

"It's been revised several times."

"What's the difference between this and not changing it at all!"

“That’s true.” Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded. “Then we won’t change it.”

"Change it!"

Chapter 229 The Last Time

Under Eriri's strong protest, the group changed positions.

About fifteen minutes north of the station, there is a river about ten meters wide flowing along the road.
