I'm here to form a band, what do you want to do!

This is a common sight in fireworks displays, where vendors use goldfish to lure passing tourists, but the nets used to catch the goldfish are actually made of paper.

"Ito-san, it's time to prove yourself. If you can catch some goldfish, you can save a ton of money!"

"Look at me!"

They really started catching goldfish, and even Ito Rin caught one with the first net, causing Yamada Ryo to shout with excitement.

"Hongxia, I'll sell this to you!"

Is this saving money? You clearly want to make some money!

When Hongxia was educating Yamada Liang, a few muffled sounds were heard in the distance, and sparks like meteors rushed into the starry sky, exploding into fireworks and flowers, and making people's faces red.

The fireworks display has begun.

Amid the crowd's exclamations, Ito Rin turned around and saw Hong Xia looking up at the starry sky.

Under the gorgeous fireworks, her pretty profile is particularly beautiful.

"I'm going to the bathroom."

Ito Rin found an excuse, turned around and walked in another direction, and took the remaining octopus balls with her before leaving.

There was no time to queue up because Nagasaki Suyo was already sending messages.

Just as the fireworks were blooming, he finally returned to another place. Nagasaki Suyo was in the same posture as when he left.

She was also looking up at the fireworks, but her expression was indescribably lonely, and the strength of the fan in her hand was much weaker.

Ito Rin followed her gaze. Although her position was not very good, she could still see the exploding fireworks, so it was not due to this reason.

To be honest, if you really just want to watch the fireworks, the best place to sit is outside the venue. Just bring a plastic mat and have a picnic on the grass outside. You don't have to endure the crowds inside and you can still see the fireworks in full.

"It's not that interesting. You might as well practice bass." Ito Rin handed her the octopus balls.

Nagasaki Suyo looked away and smiled at him.

"Fireworks are all the same. What really matters is who is by your side. I am very happy right now." Her calm tone revealed an irresistible enthusiasm.

Feeling uncomfortable, Ito Rin could only touch her nose and sit next to her.

Fireworks in the night sky create new patterns.

"It tastes good, Ito-kun. Open your mouth."

What happened just now happened again. Ito Rin was fed again. Looking at her gentle expression, she had an indescribable feeling.

…I just want to raise him like a child!

But I have to admit, it feels pretty good.

Volume 1: Chapter 86: The Gears of Destiny Turn Again (5k)

The waterfall of fireworks in the sky suddenly burst into life, dazzling the eyes, and cheers rang out all around.

Ito Rin looked at it in surprise. She didn't expect it to be so grand.

Nagasaki Suyo, who was sitting next to him, stared quietly, her snow-white and delicate face reflected clearly.

Nagasaki Suyo suddenly came to her senses: "Take a picture."

She stuffed the cell phone into Ito Rin's arms, stood under the fireworks with her clothes lifted up, and her long hair was draped over her shoulders, sparkling with bright fireworks.

"Ah? Here you come." Ito Rin hurried to take a photo.

Fortunately, although his reaction was hasty, he was experienced and managed to take many photos of Nagasaki Suyo wearing a yukata under the fireworks before the end of this round of fireworks.

The moment the dark night was illuminated by fireworks, Ito Rin seized the opportunity and pressed the shutter.

The gentle Nagasaki Suyo, with her hands in front of her body, showed a smile like a Yamato Nadeshiko. Even though everyone knew it was a disguise, her beauty was still heart-warming.

Ito Rin put away her phone: "Should we go somewhere else next? It seems there is nothing fun to do there."

"Yeah." Nagasaki Suyo nodded: "But I still want to walk around a bit more. I haven't been out like this for a long time..."

"Tsuki no Mori isn't that strict, right? Chihaya-san should be able to accompany you."

"Aine, let's sit down first!" Nagasaki Suyo, with her back to Ito Rin, suddenly spoke in a faster tone, pulled Ito Rin, and sat back on the chair.

"Eh?"

I was pulled back to the chair, and before I could say anything, I heard a dissatisfied voice behind me.

"It's all because of the lights. The fireworks are actually over. I was planning on taking a photo like this!"

"What are you talking about? It's obviously you who wasted time waiting in line to buy things."

"But I bought the lamp." She answered as a matter of course.

"you!"

Very good. Is there anyone else besides Chihaya Aine who can speak like this?

Also, it's no wonder that Nagasaki Suyo reacted so quickly, appearing in such a place at such a time.

Ito Rin turned her head to look at Nagasaki Suyo. They were too close to each other and her brown hair was blown into his face. Nagasaki Suyo pretended to be calm, hoping that he didn't notice. She grabbed her hair and smiled at him.

He also laughed, looked at her, and made a move to stand up.

"Don't!" Grabbing the boy's arm, Nagasaki Suyo's voice contained a pleading tone.

Ito Rin couldn't help laughing this time.

Nagasaki Suyo glared at him and whispered, "Well...let me explain."

"Aren't you going out?" Ito Rin said, "It's not too late now, go meet them."

"I……"

"Since you want to form a band, then don't hide it." Ito Rin said with a smile.

After all, she was a very gullible girl, and when he said that, an expression of excitement appeared on her face.

Ito Rin pushed her up, almost reaching Aine and the others. When she looked back, the boy had already retreated, leaving her with an encouraging smile.

Come on, go!

His eyes expressed this.

Nagasaki Suyo sighed helplessly, reached out her hand, and patted Chihaya Aine's shoulder: "What a coincidence."

Chihaya Aine turned around in confusion when someone patted her shoulder, and her mouth opened wide when she saw it was Nagasaki Motoyo.

"Soyo, why are you here too? Didn't you say you had something to do when I called you?"

"I came to see you after finishing my work. I didn't expect to be so lucky. I saw you as soon as I came in." Nagasaki Suyo said while rubbing her hair.

Shiina Riki looked at her suspiciously, not believing what Nagasaki Suyo said.

But I couldn't find any fault with it, especially after seeing Deng smile, I just pretended nothing happened.

"Woman, you have a different smell." The wild cat who was eating a sundae stared at her and suddenly spoke.

"..."

When they bumped into each other, Ito Rin had already left, running towards where the band was going to finish.

When they got there, everyone else was still immersed in the lively activities, only Yamada Ryo was staring at him, his eyes fixed on him.

"Senior, I'll be shy if you look at me like that." Ito Rin unscrewed the cup in her hand and said to the suspicious Yamada Ryo.

"You've been away for too long."

"There are too many people on the streets, especially in the bathroom. You don't know that you have to queue up to go to the bathroom. Tokyo is simply terrible." Ito Rin said the excuse she had prepared long ago without changing her expression.

I don't believe she can go to the men's bathroom to check!

As expected, Yamada Ryo showed an expression that could be described as extremely disgusted.

"You missed the fireworks."

"There's still a chance." Ito Rin remained calm.

Hongxia over there also noticed his return, but in front of so many people, she couldn't strike up a conversation as naturally as Liang.

"It's time to go." Hongxia looked at her phone. It was her sister urging her to go back.

The grandest fireworks show has ended. Although I feel a little regretful for not having more interactions with Ito Rin, the band’s team building was a complete success.

A few people left with the crowd and arrived at the entrance before the road became crowded.

When they arrived at the station platform, they all took different trains. Kita and Pochi-chan were going in the same direction, while Ito Rin and the other three were going back to Shimokitazawa.

Watching them get on the empty train and then looking back at their carriage, even Ito Rin frowned.

The platform was crowded, and most of the people were boarding the train back to Setagaya. It looked like a huge ordeal.

"Walk back?" he suggested.

The distance is neither far nor near, the only thing to worry about is that the store manager will not be able to wait.

Ijichi Hongxia glanced at the platform full of people and agreed with Ito Rin's suggestion in her heart.

"Ito, charge out!"

Yamada Ryo is a man of action. He has already grabbed the corner of Ito Rin's clothes, intending to use him as a human shield to rush out of the crowd.

"Wait for me!"

"..."

Mr. Yamada, what a strange name this Ito is. Don’t give your classmates nicknames randomly.

"Senior, hold on to me," he said.

Ijichi Hongxia carefully grabbed the corner of his clothes, her heart was beating for a long time, but she finally gave up the idea of ​​hugging him.

The light bulb next to me is too conspicuous.

"I'm leaving now, don't let go."

"Got it, Ito!"

"...If you call this name again, you'll have to take the train!" Ito Rin really couldn't stand Senior Yamada.

Noticing the strange looks around her, Hong Xia blushed, lowered her eyes, tugged at the hem of her clothes, and whispered, "Ito?"

"Senior, please don't let this scumbag lead you astray."

"Don't worry." Yijizhi Hongxia comforted him, "But if we don't set off now, the crowd will disappear."

"When gentle people tease, their power of destruction is even greater."

Ito Rin had such an epiphany.

So he no longer hesitated, and relying on the physical strength improved by continuous running and exercise, he squeezed out a path through the crowded crowd on the platform.

After leaving the station, the air around me became much fresher.

but……

Ito Rin looked at the torn clothes with a headache, not knowing who to blame.

"It's because it's too crowded." Yamada Ryo pretended it had nothing to do with her and stuffed the fragments into her pocket.

"That's a good excuse. Remember to compensate me for my clothes."

"Ito, you can check it as you like. All the money you find will be given to you." She opened her arms, and her blue shirt swayed gently, showing that she was clean-cut!

"You're amazing, Yamada-senpai, to be able to act like a deadbeat with such a tone." Ito Rin took off her torn coat.

"No money~"

"It's okay. I accept mortgages or delayed payments. As a good-natured person like me, I definitely won't ask you for interest. But I seem to have forgotten the price of the clothes."

"No matter how much I talk, I don't have any money in my pocket. How about you lend me some first, and I'll pay you back when I have money."

"Yamada-senpai, I have a question for you."

"That's enough, you two!"

Hong Xia stopped them from continuing their nonsense, took Ito Rin's clothes, and found the broken pieces from Liang's hands: "I'll try to see if I can fix it. Ito should be able to accept it, right?"

"no problem."
