The lady can hear my voice

"Are you right?"

"Correct."

"Ah~ I'm a little tired. I want to take a rest. Hey! Sora, I want to eat those marshmallows over there too~" Chihaya Aine said coquettishly.

"Just now, I saw Qianhua-chan eating so deliciously. I am a little greedy too."

"Okay, I'll buy it for you."

"Hmm~"

Chihaya Aine looked at Niijima Sora's back, thinking about today's unique experience and the extremely gentle look he had given her just now.

It turns out that we should just keep the status quo for now.

And there are some things...I want you to tell me first...

065 Do you like Sora Niijima?

Sora Niijima came to the small stall, looked at the staff in puppet costume, and said with a smile: "I want a strawberry-flavored marshmallow and a glass of lemonade."

"..." The staff member wearing a puppet costume nodded stiffly.

Sora Niijima looked at the other person carefully and asked, "You are playing Lingna Belle now, right?"

Lingna Belle continued to nod, but made no sound.

It seems that the staff wearing puppet costumes are not allowed to make any noise.

So as not to spoil the children's fantasies.

Sora Niijima was still staring at the staff member. He pondered for a while and asked, "I want to buy the same peripheral dolls as Lingna Belle. Are there any stores nearby that sell them?"

The staff nodded again.

"Okay, thanks. I'll go get one and come back later for the marshmallows and lemonade."

After Sora Niijima left, the staff member's movements seemed less stiff.

……

“Aine, this is for you.”

Sora Niijima was carrying a small bag containing a doll of Lingna Belle.

I happened to get a discount with my Supreme Card, but even so it still cost 20,000 yen.

It turns out that things in amusement parks are designed to rip off customers.

"This is... Lingna Belle?!" Chihaya Aine took the bag happily.

"Well, a souvenir for you."

"how much is it?"

“Never mind the price.”

"No, tell me now."

"20,000 yen."

"Um...Okay, I get it. When is your birthday, Sora?"

"Um... December 12st."

"Eh, so far? Wait, are you actually younger than me?"

"I will be 17 after my birthday this year."

Chihaya Aine felt a little regretful, "I thought I could really be your sister."

“Then…Aine-san?”

"Pfft, be good, Sora-chan~"

"This marshmallow is so sweet! How on earth does Chika-chan manage to keep eating it?"

"That's why she's chubby."

Sora Niijima and Chihaya Aine were talking and laughing as they walked towards the exit of the amusement park.

And after they entered the crowd, their figures completely disappeared.

The staff member who was wearing Lingna Belle just now withdrew his gaze.

"Saki-chan, it's time to hand over your shift now. You've worked hard today."

"It's okay. Thank you so much for today, Sister Lingzi."

"I should be the one thanking you. If you hadn't temporarily covered for me, I wouldn't have been able to go on a date with my boyfriend."

When Toyokawa Shoko heard this, her expression stiffened again.

"This is your reward for today. Oh, by the way, you must have sweated a lot after being stuck in this puppet costume all day. You can use the bathroom over here to wash yourself before leaving."

"Okay, thank you Sister Lingzi."

"it's okay no problem."

Toyokawa Shoko, wearing Reina Belle's doll costume, walked heavily towards the staff's locker room.

After entering and taking off the hood, Shoko Toyokawa looked in the mirror. Her wet hair stuck to her face and her face was covered in sweat.

She smiled wryly.

"A date?..."

"I thought... Niijima-san was with Deng..."

"It seems I still know nothing about him."

-

After taking a shower and changing into her private clothes, Shoko Toyokawa carried her bag, walked out of Disneyland, and prepared to take the bus home.

9:30 in the evening.

When Toyokawa Shoko got off the bus, dragging her exhausted body and preparing to go back to rest, she saw the familiar green-haired girl near her home.

It's Wakaba Mutsu.

Wakaba Mu waited for Toyokawa Shoko for more than three hours. She was ready to go back if she didn't see him at 10 o'clock.

As a result, I encountered it now.

"Mu?" Toyokawa Shoko was a little surprised.

Looking at Toyokawa Shoko's condition, Wakaba Mu asked, "I'll treat you to dinner, can you help me with a life talk?"

"Eh?"

……

In an ordinary Chinese restaurant nearby, Shoko Toyokawa was eating the ramen in front of her in small bites.

Originally, she was planning to just eat a rice ball to get by, but Mu had something to ask her, so she decided to eat a little.

"Saki, did you change jobs?"

"Well, a lot of things happened, so I changed it."

"You look very tired."

"You'll get used to it, it's no big deal."

“……” Ruo Yemu put down the cup of oolong tea in his hand.

"Saki, you are so strong."

"Eh?"

"So what do you want to talk to me about?"

Wakaba Mu lowered his eyebrows and asked, "Saki, if you want to resist, what will you do?"

“Resistance…?”

"Ah."

"...Mu, although I support your resistance, have you considered the way out?"

"The retreat..."

"For example, what will happen after the rebellion? Have you anticipated this?"

Ruoye Mu: "..."

Toyokawa Shoko put down her chopsticks and said softly, "The fact that you asked me this question shows that you have reached the limit of your patience."

"If I were to resist, I would just choose to leave that home."

“Then find a place that can accommodate me and live there.”

Wakaba Mutsu looked at Toyokawa Shoko's extremely tired expression and replied in a faint tone.

"I see."

"But Saki, you're the same as me, right?"

Toyokawa Shoko: "Maybe, but I haven't found a place that can accommodate me."

"Mu, you must pay attention to safety when the time comes."

"Ah."

Afterwards, the two girls walked out of the restaurant, and Toyokawa Shoko still paid for her own meal and did not really let Wakaba Mutsu treat her to a meal.

Her principles and determination in this regard are truly unmatched.

However, this is also a symbol that she regards Ruoye Mu as her friend, although their relationship is not very close now.

But Toyokawa Shoko always treats her friends equally.

Apart from……

"Saki, do you like that Sora Niijima?"

Toyokawa Shoko, who was about to say goodbye to her, froze when she heard this.

"..."

Wakaba Mu: "The last time I saw you live, you cried."

"..."

"But later, you took the initiative to confess your situation to Soyo and the others."

"It means you're not crying because of them."

Toyokawa Shoko slowly clenched her hands into fists, and her expression suddenly turned cold.

"No, you're wrong."

Ruoye Mu was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Xiangzi's expression change, he immediately chose to apologize.

"sorry."

"It's okay... I'll be leaving first, please be careful on the road." Although Toyokawa Shoko has always been a lady with a habit of speaking and using extremely standard formal terms.

But this time it was obviously more distant.

Wakaba Mutsu stood there, watching Toyokawa Shoko gradually go away, and fell into deep thought.

Was Xiangzi angry just now because he said something wrong, or was he just covering it up?

-

The reasons why Toyokawa Shoko was angry were not the two reasons that Wakaba Mutsuki thought.

It's just the anger caused by pure self-loathing.

You know that the other person already has someone in his or her heart, but you still have wishful thinking about him or her.

I really have a short memory.

Before walking into her home, Shoko Toyokawa looked up at the night sky slightly.
