Tokyo Love Story

"Initial D" was successfully released in mid-August. Although it has not been released for a month yet, in terms of revenue, it has already made a lot of money. During this period, on-site interviews on entertainment programs You can basically see Akutagawa Aoki's figure in it, and the director's phrase "I'm just filming a story" has become a favorite phrase among many movie fans.

"Double Head, Due North", which is almost tied with "Initial D", has reached its peak. It has opened up the gap between the two third places and the second place on the Hot Songs List, and firmly occupied the first place on the Hot Songs List with an overwhelming advantage. It is obvious to the naked eye that "Double Head, Due North" should be far ahead this year.

Under the enthusiastic response of the market, the broken "Initial D" was like a butterfly that flapped its wings in the Atlantic Ocean and caused a hurricane in a certain state, creating a butterfly effect.

In other cultural fields, works with a similar style to "Initial D" have all experienced a small climax recently.

Book fans in Beichuan also seized this opportunity and promoted "Norwegian Wood", "Love Letter" and "Listen to the Wind Sing" in the form of tap water.

The aroma of wine has never been afraid of deep alleys, and I am even more worried that under such publicity, the alleys do not exist at all. The store has been moved directly to the most conspicuous location in the CBD in the city center.

As it should be, the publicity has achieved quite good results.

Starting from the third day of the promotion, the daily sales of these three books hit a new high and broke the daily sales record of physical books. Many print media began to report on these three books again, and at the same time, industry leaders also began to recommend these three books on their social media.

But for Kitagawa Che, in real life he is not that mysterious singer, nor that famous author 'Kitagawa', but just an ordinary person who enjoys his current plain and leisurely life.

Just like the old song he sang before time travel, he once asked in the darkness and over and over again, only then did he realize that being ordinary and calm is the truth.

As for Baiyuan Shizhi's problem, he confessed to Beiyuan Rinyin after he got home, just as he said in front of Baiyuan Shizhi.

Compared to what he had imagined, the eldest daughter of the Beiyuan family did not react so strongly. She just pinched him hard with dissatisfaction, pouted her lips in dissatisfaction, and said that she needed compensation from him. After that, he took her out to play alone for two days, and the matter was over.

"Speaking of which, does Ah Che still remember the fireworks display we went to see together last year?"

Beichuan's house, in the living room.

Sitting on the sofa, Tsugumi Seina stuffed a small dessert made by Kitaen Rinone into her mouth while starting the conversation in a natural tone.

For her, once the summer vacation comes to an end, her daily life will become busy.

Compared with the relatively relaxed first year of high school, as a teacher in the second year of high school, she has a lot to worry about.

Firstly, she needs to make a unified collection of the students' career choice lists. Secondly, based on the admission rate of Shirakawa High School, under the premise that the vast majority of students will choose to go to college, the school's teaching rhythm, first of all, Just like the exact words she relayed to Beichuan Che and the others before, they will be caught even more strictly.

But the problem is that paying close attention to the pace of teaching affects not only students, but also teachers.

In other words, it is not just the students who are arrested, but also the teachers.

This also means that her pressure will increase. After all, she is not only a teacher, but also a subject teacher.

"Are you talking about the fireworks display on the Sumida River?"

Beichuan Che, who was watching TV, took over the conversation.

He was deeply impressed by last year's Sumida River Fireworks Festival. After all, such a viewing position is rare.

"Yes." Rina Toshima bent down, took out a piece of tissue, wiped her hands, and then revealed her true purpose, "Are we going too this year?"

She really wanted to go.

It was a fireworks display. When they went together last year, she already felt it was quite romantic.

This year, it’s the same!

"But the question is, hasn't it already been held this year?" Kitagawa Teru whispered to Rina Toshimaru, "The Sumida River Fireworks Festival is held on July 29th every year, and it is already the end of August and it has ended. Miles."

This large-scale fireworks display will not be postponed unless there are special circumstances, let alone be held again temporarily for someone.

Hearing this, Thrush Chengli fell silent reluctantly, with a hint of embarrassment in his eyes.

She said she was deeply impressed by the fireworks display, but it seemed that she was just impressed by the fireworks all over the sky.

As for the specific date when the fireworks display was held, she had no memory at all.

"As for the fireworks display, there will be one recently."

Kashiwamoto Shiori, who had been watching TV, also joined the conversation.

She had no intention of teasing Rina Toshima. On the contrary, she also wanted to go to the fireworks display. She had even considered mentioning it to Kitagawa Cheru before, but after careful consideration, she gave up the idea. .

After all, from her current position, it is difficult for her to say such a thing. She is already a senior in high school. No matter what, she should calm down in the last six months.

But.

Since someone has already mentioned it, she can always help.

"For example?"

Beiyuan Rinyin, who was sitting next to Beichuan Che, brightened her eyes and became interested.

The three of them just went back to Beiyuan's house a few days ago. At the dinner table, although the family was enjoying themselves, she still had a complicated mood that she couldn't explain when she went back there after staying here for a long time.

It’s not that she felt unfamiliar, unhappy, or restrained, but she simply felt that something was wrong. Then, after dinner, her mother took her to the study and mentioned some embarrassing things.

Thinking about it now, her heartstrings were twitching uncontrollably.

Now, if I can go to a fireworks display, it can change my mood.

"Uh, let me think about it." Kashiwagen Shiori took out her phone, clicked on the memo, and read the contents on it, "Myoken Taisai, um... this is from the 16th to the 22nd of this month, it has passed.

"Furthermore, the Sagamihara Summer Fireworks Festival...well, this is over, it's on the 20th.

"The Tokyo Otsuka Awa Yuna Festival is held on the 26th and 27th, but the fireworks display is only held on the eve of the 26th, which is tomorrow, Saturday."

In fact, if possible, she personally hopes to go not too far away.

When this kind of fireworks display is held, there will definitely be crowds of people around. If it is too far away, the traffic will be very congested. By then, getting back and forth will be a big problem.

For example, she thought last year's fireworks display was very good. Both the scale of the fireworks display and the distance from Beichuan's home to the viewing location were very suitable.

But if it is too far, it will give people an indescribable feeling of fatigue.

"Is this the only place?"

Beiyuan Rinyin tilted her head. She was not very interested in festivals and the like.

She knew better that her fiancé was not very interested in such activities.

It is best for a fireworks display to be the purest fireworks display, and this is the most appropriate.

"Also." Baiyuan Shizhi reminded Beiyuan Linyin, "If this is the case, it will be relatively far away.

"The Shonan Hiratsuka Fireworks Festival is also on August 26th. It is located in Hiratsuka City, Kanagawa Prefecture, about 40 to 50 kilometers away from us. Considering the traffic congestion on that day, it may take more than an hour to get there."

Such a fireworks display will definitely cause traffic jams, and the closer you get to your destination, the more likely it will be.

——Even if you go early.

"On the 26th, we start school on September 1st. How about staying there for one night? Can we come back calmly the next morning?"

Beiyuan Rinyin tilted her head and made a suggestion.

She personally doesn't like to be in a hurry and crowded with people. Of course, if Che wants to go and come back the same day, there is no problem.

"It's okay, it's okay, what about you?"

Kitagawa Che nodded, he didn't care, it was mainly other people's opinions.

It’s only over fifty kilometers. Taking into account the possible traffic jams, in the final analysis, it’s just over an hour. Compared with the day before the crossing, where you have to drive for three or four hours and be busy from morning to night. This is simply not too easy.

"I have no problem." Tsugumi Seirina raised her hand, "If possible, I would even like to call one more person."

"Miss Ai?"

Bai Yuan Shizhi took up the conversation with some curiosity.

"No, she has to go to work on the 26th."

Rina Tashigi frowned. Her best friend's rest time has always been a mystery to her. When she is at work, she may be resting, and when she is resting, she may be at work.

In short, in the second half of each year, it is really difficult for their rest times to be synchronized.

Hearing this, Bai Yuan Shizhi fell silent.

At this moment, she inexplicably felt the heavy responsibility of being an adult.

"Is it Xue Sha?"

Beiyuan Rinne looked at Rina Tashisei and guessed.

In her impression, they were the only people Rina Toshima took care of.

"Yes."

Rina Toshima nodded slightly and gave an affirmative answer.

Compared to them who always get together, Xue Sha's side seems much deserted.

If possible, she hoped to bring Xuesha with her.

"No problem, just call her and ask her."

Kitayuan Rinyin first turned her head and glanced at Kitachuan Che, and after receiving an affirmative look from her fiancé, she nodded.

She actually knew that her fiancé had no opinions on this matter, but just like her mother told her, she had to protect her man's face in front of others.

These small details are silent bonus points.

"Oh, I'll ask later."

Tsugumi Makina raised her eyebrows, threw the toilet paper she used to wipe her hands into the trash can, then picked up the remote control and turned down the volume of the TV a little.

"For accommodation, is it easy to book a place?"

Baiyuan Shizhi frowned, with a bit more worry in his eyes.

The Shonan Hiratsuka Fireworks Festival is quite famous.

"For this, just leave it to me."

Beiyuan Rinyin blinked.

This kind of thing is just a phone call away.

Although Beiyuan Co., Ltd.'s main business is custom-made clothing, it does not mean that it has nothing to do with other fields.

"Then, the accommodation problem is solved, and the rest is just a small problem." Baiyuan Shizhi glanced at the phone first, then raised his eyebrows and looked at Kitagawa Che with a smile, "The next step is How did it pass?"

If you want to call Morishima Yukisa, then one car is definitely not enough, you need to take two cars.

After all, there seem to be only two people in the family who can drive, one is Rina-san, and the other is Kitagawa Teru.

When she asked this, she was actually asking knowingly.

"Let's go by car. How else can we go there?"

Beichuan Che glared at this girl with a bit of laughter.

How could he not understand what she meant.

He originally planned to drive there, but if he really had to change transportation, the subtle looks from passers-by on the road, even with his thick skin, would be enough for him to drink.

"Then thank you for your hard work, Che~"

Baiyuan Shizhi winked playfully.

"uh-huh."

Beichuan Che shook his head helplessly.

What can he say at this time?

He couldn't say anything.

"or……"

As if she suddenly remembered something, Rina Toshima raised her eyebrows and looked at Kitagawa Che and Kituan Rinne.

"Ok?"

As if they had been well rehearsed, Kitagawa Cheru and Kitaon Rinne looked back at Toshimaru Rina in tacit understanding.

"Are we going today? Then, I'll ask Xuesha right away."

Rina Toshima hesitated for a moment, then expressed her thoughts.

It had been a long, long time since she had gone on a short trip.

Today is already the 25th. If we set out tomorrow on the 26th, there will probably be a traffic jam visible to the naked eye.

So instead of being stuck in traffic tomorrow, why not leave early, leave later, and enjoy a traffic-free trip.

"It's okay, but wouldn't it be a bit..."

Beichuan Che hesitated.
