I live my life in Tokyo

The next day, the three of them worked in different places. Mai Sakurajima took the agency's business car to the shooting location early in the morning, while Kaede Sakakibara and Chizuru Ichinose took the subway to the studio. Chizuru Ichinose seemed to have not slept well last night and kept yawning.

Kaede Sakakibara was in high spirits. In order to dispel the boredom on the train, he went online on Twitter.

"Shocked! World Shining will hold a concert at the end of summer vacation! Please cast your precious vote to decide the location of World Shining's next concert!"

This shock has a certain taste.

It was called a vote, and there were only two choices, Sakakibara Kaede knew, one was Osaka and the other was Kyoto.

Osaka is in front and Kyoto is behind. If Kyoto is there, it will definitely delay and prevent Osaka from getting the first place.

The young man knew that the company wanted to hold a concert in Osaka, which was bigger, more modern, and more convenient for living, making it suitable for living there for a week or two during rehearsal.

After thinking about it, Sakakibara Kaede pressed the Osaka option.

"Wow, the situation now is... fifty-fifty. I didn't expect Kyoto to be in the lead temporarily." Sakakibara Kaede was slightly surprised, but knowing the result, he still felt a little sorry for the Kyoto citizens who voted and others who voted for Kyoto. . . . The location has been decided above, and this dynamic is like a fish hook, which can drive a lot of heat in the pond!

Sakakibara Kaede liked and left a message, which was considered as participating in the event with his official account - he hadn't logged into his official account for a while, and as expected, it became empty. Apart from the content he reposted a few months ago, his official account has been urged to update by fans more than once.

The young man curled his lips and immediately took out the electronic version of the photo he got when taking the final makeup photo from his mobile phone. He thought about it, then clicked send and sent it to Miss Nanakusa.

She should know what kind of dynamics Sakakibara Kaede is thinking.

Sakakibara Kaede knew that Nanakusa Hazuki sometimes understood what he wanted to do - she said that she had a sister who was a few years younger than him and had experience with younger siblings.

The young man was treated as a younger brother, but he didn't feel anything. Miss Nanakusa was gentle and tolerant. It was a blessing to have such a sister.

Chapter 21 Summer Swimming Pool

"Sakakibara-senpai, um, where will World Shining hold its concert?"

After finishing his morning work, Kaede Sakakibara just walked into the campus. Several students from the wind orchestra seemed to be squatting here with him. When they saw him, they immediately raised the corners of their mouths, revealing their beautiful dimples.

He coughed and put on some adult dignity, "Where did you choose?"

"It must be Kyoto."

The students were talking about their choices and ideas, and most of them chose Kyoto, which was normal. As they talked, they walked towards the teaching building. Many students passed by them along the way, and they all cast envious glances at them.

"But there are too few people in Kyoto. There's nothing we can do even if we canvass for votes." The female student from the trumpet section looked a little dejected. Canvassing in school might not be a problem, but this vote was conducted across the entire network. Not to mention that there are more people living in Osaka than in Kyoto, many people living in Kyoto also voted for Osaka, thinking that they could take this opportunity to travel.

The young man heard the girl's thoughts and sighed in his heart. No matter how many votes he got, the concert would definitely be held in Osaka. But he didn't tell the truth. The world of adults is more dirty. They are all young and lively, and the world should be better.

"Okay, you guys should go practice too. Aren't you going to perform together for Mr. Taki today?"

Several girls left with a smile. Compared with Takisho's cold attitude, Miura Yuuma was more lively and could easily lead the atmosphere. The students in the wind band had no schoolwork to do during the summer vacation. After fully devoting themselves to music, the results of their performances were indeed much better than the previous rehearsals.

"Well, how are you going to spend the Obon holiday, Sakakibara-senpai?"

Seeing that the person talking to him was Xiaolu, who was familiar with him and played the double bass, Sakakibara Feng nodded his chin and said, "You don't have work that day. If nothing unexpected happens, you should be resting at home. Your wind band has been too tense recently. Take advantage of the holiday to relax."

"Ah, let's go play in the swimming pool~"

Xiaolu came to the classroom door, bowed to Sakakibara Kaede with a smile, and began to practice on her own.

Last year's Ullambana Festival was meaningless as he was busy with his master's tasks day after day and had no time to rest. This year, he can take a break from his busy work.

A swimming pool, the kind with a water slide?

Kaede Sakakibara didn't bring a swimsuit when she came to Kyoto, but she should be able to buy swimming trunks near the swimming pool, so it's not a big problem.

"Eh? Swimming pool?"

During dinner, Sakurajima Mai put down her chopsticks and curiously repeated what Sakakibara Kaede had just said.

"Isn't tomorrow the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday? Several classmates from Kitauji High School have made an appointment to go to the swimming pool to play." Sakakibara Kaede said vaguely while chewing food.

"Are you sure they didn't invite you?" Sakurajima Mai looked doubtful. "Those high school students are at an age when their minds are filled with sweet dreams. How could they not invite you to play in the swimming pool with them?"

Why does this sound a bit sour?

"No, my students and I are just seniors and juniors, and we are not particularly close."

Sakakibara Feng spread his hands innocently, "I just heard that they were going to the swimming pool, and they didn't invite me... And I'm a college student, and I'm going to the swimming pool with a few female students who are just in the first year of high school. Isn't this a bit..."

"Humph, who knows? Maybe you're secretly thinking about it."

Mmp, this is unacceptable.

Sakakibara Kaede had a gloomy face as his calf was kicked again by Sakurajima Mai, and the toes left marks on his leg.

The young man obviously didn't know the famous saying that you can't reason with a jealous girl.

"Swimming pool, Mai-san, do you want to go?" Chizuru Ichinose, who had been watching the show silently, whispered, "I prepared a swimsuit before coming to Kyoto this time..."

Sakurajima Mai pouted, "I brought it too, let's go tomorrow."

"Hey, hey, hey, why did you forget about me?"

The young man shook his head and sighed, feeling like he couldn't get through another day. He barely squeezed into their chat room and said, "I didn't bring a swimsuit, so I may have to go buy one near the swimming pool tomorrow."

"It's just a public swimming pool, there are too many people and too many eyes." Sakurajima Mai held up her chin and thought, "It's better to have more people. If it's just the three of us going out to play, others might think of something... Although I really want them to think of something."

The girl tapped her red lips, "After all, Feng-san, you want to start a harem~"

"What, I'm starting a harem?"

"You don't have a harem?"

Sakakibara Kaede covered his face with his hands. He took a deep breath as Sakurajima Mai looked at him with a rubbish look. This feeling, is he really not living in the second dimension?

Or was he dreaming and went to the wrong set? When did this inspirational youth anime turn into an inspirational youth harem anime?

"I'll go ask the guys in the studio if they'd be interested in going to the pool."

"Then I too..." Mai Sakurajima and Chizuru Ichinose spoke at the same time. They were stunned for a moment, then smiled at each other.

They were all ready to ask the actors in the crew.

As expected, Kaede Sakakibara washed the dishes and made plans to leave tomorrow. Mai Sakakijima did not have the devilish intention of asking Kaede Sakakibara to continue pushing the classmate line tonight. Instead, she let him go and let Kaede Sakakibara go to bed with gratitude and praise for the beauty of Mai Sakakijima. He finally went to bed before midnight today.

The result of the contact was unexpectedly good.

The next day, the three of them went out with their bags. The swimming pool was far from their home and they had to take the tram to get there.

Sakakibara Kaede has arranged to have a few voice actors here, and the number of people accounts for an average proportion. The rest of them took advantage of the holiday to return to their homes in Tokyo and plan to rest there. Mai Sakurajima and Chizuru Ichinose have the largest number of people in the crew. They are all actors, and they all understand. Although there is an old saying that people are afraid of fame and pigs are afraid of being fat, there is also an old saying that wealth and honor will not return to their hometowns, like a brocade robe walking at night.

We are all in the entertainment industry, and who doesn't have a little vanity? If we are recognized by others when walking on the street, we will be in a good mood for the whole day. We go to the swimming pool together just to see how well-known we are in front of the public. If someone comes up with a swimsuit and asks for an autograph, we will probably laugh in our dreams tonight.

Sakakibara Kaede might have had such thoughts when he first entered the entertainment industry, but now he still feels that being low-key is more important, no, it should be more important to be low-key.

The old is replaced by the new, and Sakakibara Kaede has been in the entertainment industry for about two years. During this period, there have been many newcomers who have made a big splash, but Sakakibara Kaede is very patient. He works just for his dreams and to find something to do. Before, he had the idea of ​​​​numbing himself with work, and money and fame were second to none.

The main colors of both Sakurajima Mai and Ichinose Chizuru are white. The only difference is the color of the decorations. The two walked side by side. They only wore sunglasses and no masks, which frequently attracted the attention of many passers-by.

Kaede Sakakibara, who was walking behind, suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. He didn't wear a mask either, but naturally he didn't get as much attention as the two girls.

The swimming pool covers a large area and is surrounded by parks, making it a great place to relax and have a picnic. Sakakibara Kaede looked at the figures and thought that some of them might be students from Kitauji High School.

"Well, let's go buy swimming trunks for Feng-san before the gathering." Sakurajima Mai glanced at the time on her phone. There was still some time before the gathering. Her tone was unquestionable and she sounded like the hostess of a family.

"The swimming merchandise is there, Feng-san, let's go,"

Ichinose Chizuru pulled on Sakakibara Kaede's sleeve.

What else could the young man say? Everything had been arranged by them.

Kaede Sakakibara doesn't swim very often. Even when he is exercising, he rarely chooses swimming as a way to consume physical energy. Although there is a swimming pool in the gym in the tower, he still does more aerobic exercises, stretches his muscles, does abdominal exercises, etc. Sometimes, when he feels like it, he will even practice kendo in the sky garden on the top floor of the tower.

Several couples can be seen in the swimwear shop. They are playing the amazing play that is often played in the two-dimensional world, where they change clothes and then pull open the curtain. Sakakibara Kaede took a glance and then looked away, starting to pick and choose.

He doesn't have many opportunities to swim, and to be honest, he doesn't know much about swimming trunks, it's just a matter of tightness.

After comparing the swimming trunks in front of the mirror for a while and confirming that the size was correct, the young man bought them immediately.

Mai Sakurajima was a little disappointed. She had originally hoped that Kaede Sakakibara would go try on clothes, and then surprise him by sneaking into the fitting room and taking the opportunity to get intimate with him.

I didn’t expect the young man to be so straightforward and buy it directly.

When they returned to the swimming pool, the three met up with other large groups. They were all in the same circle, and even if they had never met before, this was an excellent opportunity for socializing. Some people had already started chatting with each other before the three arrived, and some even went straight into the swimming pool and started enjoying it.

Regarding this point, after all, this is not a spring outing organized by elementary school students, no one can fall behind, and everyone is free to move.

Sakakibara Kaede greeted several familiar-looking actors, and they all laughed when they saw the young man. Some even pointed at him and Sakurajima Mai.

"Let me tell you, I saw Sakakibara-san and Sakurajima-san talking at the station that day, and you still didn't believe me."

"Yes, yes, Sakakibara-san and Sakurajima-san have always had a good relationship. Do you understand or not?"

Sakurajima Mai's face turned from sunny to cloudy.

There were neither too many nor too few people in the swimming pool, and it wasn't so crowded that it could be described as dumplings. There were many young people, mostly high school students, and some young couples who brought their children to play in the water.

Sakakibara entered the locker room, hesitating for a moment, and put his sunglasses in the locker. Today's weather was hot, after changing his clothes, he took a shower and then headed for the swimming pool.

Summer is a season that makes men and women passionate, and it is also a season when they can freely show off their figures.

Unlike high school girls who are determined to be beautiful and fashionable by wearing short skirts and black stockings even in the middle of winter, in the summer, they can fully show off the gracefulness and beauty of their bodies.

Men may think it is dispensable or unimportant, but this meaning is more important to women.

Sakakibara Kaede stretched lazily towards the sun. He was neither too thin nor too fat. Sakakibara Kaede used to be too thin and weak. He had to gasp for breath for a long time after running on the playground. Since the young man started to exercise with kendo, his body became more symmetrical, he had abdominal muscles, and his energy and spirit became more and more high.

Sakurajima Mai and Ichinose Chizuru usually don't see these things. The former immediately thought that Asakura Toru and Higuchi Madoka had taken many hot springs with Sakakibara Kaede. Now, they saw everything, didn't they? !

The two of them blinked and looked at each other for a long time, and finally decided to step forward and say hello.

"Yo..." Sakurajima Mai looked fierce, she put one hand on her waist and greeted.

She wore a thin white T-shirt on the outside, so thin that Sakakibara could clearly see the color of her swimsuit.

Black and mature.

Chizuru Ichinose did not cover herself up. She looked pure and bold in her white swimsuit.

"Feng-san, have you forgotten something?" Mai Sakurajima came barefoot to Kaede Sakakibara, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped on Kaede Sakakibara's feet without any hesitation.

"Forgot something?"

Staring at each other, Chizuru Ichinose coughed lightly, "Really, compliment me! Senior Kaede has played the part-time worker line so many times that you've forgotten the scene where the male protagonist and the part-time worker go to the swimming pool together!"

The young man suddenly realized that this was what was being talked about.

"Both of your swimsuits suit you very well. They are beautiful."

Sakakibara Kaede praised sincerely.

Mai Sakurajima rolled up her hair that fell to her shoulders and turned her eyes to the side. Her face was slightly red and the corners of her mouth were raised, revealing a shallow curve.

Chizuru Ichinose stammered and hummed twice, then walked up the stairs and entered the swimming pool first.

"Let's soak in the water for a while, just like taking a hot spring bath." Sakakibara Kaede invited Sakurajima Mai, "If you just stand here in this weather, you'll get sunburned."

"Well, let's go."

Mai Sakurajima smiled slightly and accepted the young man's invitation. The two of them walked down the escalator into the swimming pool, feeling the icy cold water gradually rising over their ankles, reaching their abdomen, and soaking into their chests.

It is indeed comfortable, just like soaking in a hot spring in cold weather, it is indeed more comfortable to soak in a swimming pool in summer. In fact, the best place to go is still to go to the beach, but the swimming pool, as a lower-level alternative to the sea, is everyone's first choice.

"By the way, where are your students?"

"Why do you ask this question?"

Sakakibara Feng snorted. He would not fall into the trap and ask this question. Is it you who has the problem or me?

"I just want to ask." Sakurajima Mai changed the T-shirt covering the outside before going into the swimming pool. Sakurajima Mai looked very mature. Perhaps it was because of her aura, she did not look like she was one year younger than Sakakibara Kaede, but rather like he was the same age.

Sakakibara Kaede stood on tiptoe and began to search, when suddenly a foot kicked towards him from under the water.

The young man sneered. He had already expected this situation. Moreover, the water flow slowed down Mai Sakurajima's movements. Kaede Sakakibara lightly squeezed and pinched one of Mai Sakurajima's legs in his hand.

ridiculous.

Chapter 22 Five Women and One Man.jpg

Mai Sakurajima's lips curled up slightly, and she glanced at Kaede Sakakibara's face scrutinizingly.

"It feels like Senior Feng has been very courageous lately."

"No, it's just the same as usual."

The young man put down Sakurajima Mai's feet, leaned against the edge of the pool and looked up. He did not stretch his body and float on the water in a big letter shape. There were many people in the pool, so this behavior was a little immoral.

"Under normal circumstances, Senior Kaede won't touch my body." Mai Sakurajima imitated him and leaned against the edge of the swimming pool. She looked at Chizuru Ichinose who went into the water and soaked her whole body to cool down. "I always feel that Senior Kaede now is a little different from before."
