Aspiring to be a girl in a band

But Aine was not discouraged, because she knew that Wuhua... her Wuhua would definitely have a way.

Let me give you a demonstration first.

Arakawa Kirika gently said this to Aine, and then continued to lead Aine to the end of the line.

Unfortunately, at the very end of the line was a couple...?

Are they a couple?

Arakawa Kirika looked somewhat puzzled.

In his opinion, the two men's style of dress had a unique aesthetic.

Why are there so many strange characters written on the exposed arm? And why are there incomprehensible patterns drawn on it?

Also, why do you have to pierce so many holes in your ears? There are so many earrings that they can't all fit on your earlobes anymore. In the end, you can only pierce them into the cartilage of your ears.

As for the makeup on her face, it was even stranger. But fortunately, Arakawa Kirika understood that people's aesthetic standards varied greatly, so she didn't dwell on the other person's makeup too much. It was just that the strong smell of cosmetics made her feel very uncomfortable.

……

Arakawa Kirika, who had originally intended to pat the other person's shoulder, immediately withdrew her hand and then reluctantly kicked the other person's shin.

"Fog Flower!!!"

Aine, watching Arakawa Kirika's actions, was so frightened that her heart jumped into her throat.

Arakawa Kirika, a classical young lady, didn't know, but Aine certainly did.

The two people in front of me looked like biker gang members.

Eh?

Wait a minute.

Aine suddenly realized that she didn't seem to need to worry about Kirika at all.

……

"what?"

One of the women, dressed like a young delinquent, was the first to make a move.

After all, Arakawa Kirika no longer possesses the "cold-blooded aura" she had in her early days.

With her deliberate restraint, as long as she doesn't speak, everyone would probably think of her as a well-behaved girl...

And that's exactly what the young delinquent girl in front of him was thinking.

She quickly gave her male companion a wink, and then the two of them started working together.

“Honey… what’s wrong with you? You… woman, how dare you kick my darling? This isn’t over, you have to pay for it.”

Normally, this young delinquent would probably have used a very offensive term.

But when the word "bitch" was about to come out of her mouth, the young delinquent suddenly felt a sense of impending doom, which made her subconsciously change her words.

Her male companion quickly put on a pained expression, almost collapsing, repeatedly saying things like "It hurts so much."

Well……

Arakawa Kirika fell into deep thought; she certainly knew what was happening before her.

It's just a staged accident.

She glanced at the clouds on the horizon. She didn't have time to waste on such things. The sun was about to set, and the most important thing now was to hurry and catch the last rays of its light.

So she opened her suitcase.

"This is for medical expenses, and also, give me your seats."

Eh?

When the male companion saw how easily the staged accident had yielded profit, he immediately considered pushing his luck, but... he was stopped by his female companion.

Just because Arakawa Kirika glared at her earlier.

"Well... here, the seat is yours. Thank you for your great kindness."

The bosozoku man with the pompadour hairstyle was completely baffled by his female companion's sudden change in attitude and even her dragging him along, but he kept quiet and chose to listen to her.

"Wait a minute."

Arakawa Kirika turned around and called out to the young delinquent.

The delinquent girl quickly slunk back and stood ramrod straight in front of Arakawa Kirika.

In a very short time, she realized that the girl in front of her was definitely not someone she could mess with. Now she was very glad that she hadn't uttered that habitual derogatory term from the beginning.

"You smell so bad it makes me want to vomit. Remember to buy some good cosmetics."

Arakawa Kirika handed over two more banknotes with a look of disgust.

"Oh...oh..."

The young woman, feeling like she'd been granted a pardon, quickly bowed and thanked her companion profusely as they fled the scene.

...This matter was mentioned briefly.

Next, Arakawa Kirika used the same method, paving the way with money.

She moved up about 20 places before she finished handing out the small stack of money in her hand.

Then she turned to look at Aine, and took out several stacks of money from her suitcase and placed them in Aine's hand.

"Have you learned it? Now it's your turn."

Ai-yin looked a little confused, and it took her a while to come to her senses.

Is Wu Hua suggesting that she... buy the right to cut in line?

This is...so awesome...!

Ai Yin said that even when playing games, she wouldn't dare to spend so extravagantly on in-game currency.

This was the first time in her life that she had so directly experienced the power of money.

Aine took the money from Arakawa Kirika's hand, and then, with an excited look on her face, began to imitate Kirika's act of throwing money around.

……

The crowd began to stir.

Because everyone at the front of the line noticed that someone behind them was paying to cut in line.

Most people would just mutter "foolish and rich" in response to this behavior.

But when the opportunity to make money comes up in front of them, probably no one can refuse. They might even put on a fawning smile and say, "Thank you, boss."

After all... just by letting that girl go in front of him, he could get several Fukuzawa Yukichi cards without even having to start from the beginning.

They've made a fortune!

Finally, Arakawa Kirika got her wish and entered the Ferris wheel's cable car before sunset.

She even had some money left in the suitcase, so she simply gave it all to the staff member who opened the door for her.

……

"how do you feel?"

Arakawa Kirika and Aine sat facing each other, and Arakawa Kirika asked first with a light laugh.

"Of course...it's absolutely wonderful."

Aine couldn't hide the flush on her face; the thrill of such extravagant spending was even more addictive than gambling.

Before today, the biggest thrill Aine, an ordinary high school girl, had ever experienced was getting two yellow cards in a pay-to-win mobile game.

But while enjoying herself immensely, Aine also felt a bit troubled.

I have a feeling... if I stay with Kirika all the time, I'll pick up some really bad habits...

Volume 1: Chapter 218 Reversed Ending

As the cable car slowly ascended, Aine's emotions became increasingly difficult to calm.

Is it because I've returned to being alone?

"What a useless person I am..." Aine thought to herself.

It's unbelievable that I'm still nervous about things at this point.

It took her a while to compose herself before she slowly looked up in the direction of Arakawa Kirika.

Mist Flower... What is she looking at?

Aine noticed that Arakawa Kirika's eyes were fixed on the window, so she followed her gaze in that direction.

...Speaking of which...

I don't think I've ever really watched a sunset properly.

Ai Yin stared at the sun, half of which had already disappeared below the horizon, and momentarily lost in a daze.

She seemed to sense that even as it was about to sink, the half-remaining sun was still working hard to give its last bit of warmth to the earth.

As time slowly passed, the clouds in the sky turned orange-red.

It was indeed a beautiful view, but...

Aine withdrew her gaze and looked back at Kirika.

If possible, she would prefer that Wuhua's gaze linger on her more.

"By the way, why did Wuhua have to be in such a hurry to get on the cable car? And it was all so expensive."

Aine finally asked the question, her expression a little guilty, because she felt guilty for disturbing Wuhua's enjoyment of the scenery with her "bad intentions".

Upon hearing Aine's words, Arakawa Kirika slowly snapped out of her reverie, then rubbed her eyes listlessly... and then, looking quite tired, leaned back against the cushions inside the cable car.

Eh?

Ai Yin was taken aback at first, then thought to herself.

Wuhua...is she hungry?

Aine remembers that Mizuka only showed this soft appearance when she lacked [energy].
