My childhood sweetheart is Nishimiya Glass

Chapter 403 A Date with Chicken Zilla
The third pair, Tsuna and Shoko, were also being watched by onlookers who were eagerly awaiting the host's announcement of their answers.

After all, they were the first to start writing.

The host exclaimed in surprise upon seeing their answers: "Both of them chose broccoli! They've successfully advanced to the next round!"

As soon as he finished speaking, murmurs broke out among the onlookers.

The host's eyes lit up, his curiosity piqued. He darted closer to A-Gang, a professional smile on his face.

"Couples from Group Three, may I ask you a question?"

Tsuna looked at the microphone, which was almost touching his mouth and still had a slight odor, and pulled Shoko back a little, nodding speechlessly.

How did you guys confirm the answer so quickly?

Tsuna was about to speak: "We...—"

"...That's because they've been childhood sweethearts since they were one year old!"

A crisp voice, like a thunderclap from a clear sky, rang out from behind Tsuna and the other two, and at the same time, a slender hand landed on Shoko's shoulder!

Tsuna and Shoko turned around almost simultaneously upon hearing the familiar voice.

But Ayumi Ajitani had somehow nimbly slipped next to Shoko, standing on tiptoe and resting her chin on Shoko's shoulder.

With a smile that curved her eyes, she addressed the host and the audience, and with those words, she cleanly and decisively shut Tsuna up!
Shoko exclaimed in surprise, "Ayumi-chan!? What are you doing here?"

"If you can go on a date, why can't I?" Ayumi Azurani replied with a smile.

Seeing that they had started chatting and his curiosity had been satisfied, the host wisely moved on to the next group.

He also used quirky remarks to draw the audience's attention, keeping their eyes glued to him.

"A...a date? Who are you with...?" Shoko's eyes widened involuntarily when she heard her say that.

Upon hearing this, A-Gang quickly looked around, but apart from the two couples who had participated in the competition, there was no one else around.

"Dang...dang...dang!"

As if by magic, Ayumi Ajitani excitedly dubbed the voice while pulling a pure white doll out of her small bag.

The doll has two plastic eyes standing guard on either side, and a half-eaten tongue droops comically out of its wide-open mouth.

He had a silly grin that suggested he lacked common sense.

Her eyes sparkled, and her voice rose excitedly at the end:

"Of course, it's a date with my Chicken Zura!"

This is a super exclusive limited edition, only available this year for White Valentine's Day!!!

The chicken-themed doll also has white candies as a Valentine's Day decoration.

"..." Tsuna was speechless.

He felt he was overthinking things; with her silly appearance, she didn't seem like someone would want her.

And the dates were just an excuse; the real reason to come here was to buy that ugly-cute doll...

Shoko seemed used to this, a slightly helpless smile curving her eyes as she asked gently:
"Only you?"

“No,” Ayumi Azurani shook her head, putting the doll away.

"And there's Takagi-chan, but we ran into Nishikata-kun along the way, and we cleverly got separated."

"..." Tsuna was momentarily speechless.

While the three of them were chatting, the other three groups also finished quickly. Apart from the middle-aged couple, the other two people gave different answers.

"Alright, alright! Now, couples, please return to your original positions. We're about to begin the second question!"

As the host's voice rang out, Ayumi Azurani waved to the two of them and quickly walked to the side to cheer them on.

"In the first round, apart from the childhood sweethearts and the married couple, everyone else missed out on the grand prize. I don't think any of them will make it to the end." "I agree. It's just too difficult, and the questions are random, unless they can communicate in Morse code."

"Me too!"

"No wonder the store manager was so generous; apparently, no one can win this grand prize!"

"But to be fair, I still think that middle-aged couple has a good chance of winning the grand prize, or at the very least, answering five questions correctly."

"I wonder how many of those five couples will break up after they're done playing around. It's kind of funny."

While the people around her were chattering about the couples participating in the competition, Ayumi simply pursed her lips and quietly listened.

"Second question! Please write down your girlfriend's birthday! It needs to be accurate to the month and day!"

The first few questions were just appetizers; the host didn't want to ask anything too difficult right from the start.

As the host finished speaking, everyone thought for a moment and then began to write.

The last group stopped writing after two minutes of revisions, and everyone's answers were immediately announced.

Groups 1 and 2 were eliminated, while the answers from Group 3, including those of Tsuna and the middle-aged couple, were saved for last as the grand finale.

The answers for groups 4 and 5 were correct, but they still missed out on the grand prize.

"Tianjian! What do you mean!? I clearly wrote July 3rd, why did you write January 4th? Huh?"

"I just told you about my birthday a few days ago! You've already forgotten?! Which ex-girlfriend's birthday is this?"

The audience's favorite part, the impromptu performance, is here! After the host announced the answers of the first four groups, the second group started arguing.

"Honey, I don't have any ex-girlfriend. You're my first love, I swear!"

"Ah…!"

The woman rolled her eyes at her boyfriend, already starting to doubt his words.

"Don't argue, don't argue, arguing won't solve anything!"

"That's right!"

"Arguing won't solve anything, fighting will! Might makes right, sisters!"

"..."

The noise from the onlookers grew louder and louder. Finally, the girl stepped on her boyfriend's foot and squeezed out of the crowd, leaving the scene, with boys chasing after her trying to stop her.

"Quiet down, everyone! Quiet down, there was a little accident just now, let's continue!"

After the onlookers left, the host quickly brought the topic back on track.

As expected, both Tsuna and his companion, along with the middle-aged couple, passed the test; it was simply too easy for them.

Tsuna and Shoko exchanged a glance and smiled at each other.

…………

The atmosphere never cooled down thanks to the host's humorous remarks, and more and more people gathered.

The third question eliminated one team, and the fourth, fifth, and sixth questions eliminated another team. Unless the second group, which had the first argument, ran away, there are now only three groups left.

The high school couple in the fourth group felt their chances were slim, so they left early. There were too many people, and they were starting to feel nervous and embarrassed.

The remaining two, Tsuna and the middle-aged couple, did not miss a single one.

This was what shocked the host the most, because there was only one giant plush bear prepared...

The onlookers also started placing verbal bets on the two, and Takagi and Nishikata were attracted by the excitement, and they even successfully met up with Ayumi Ajitani.

"Okay! Question number seven! Please write down the current heights of both parties! Both of their heights!"
