Tokyo: Am I the only male tenant?

Everyone was going to watch the fireworks soon, so why were their luggages getting heavier?

"Don't do that! Please, don't do that again! Please, this guy, please talk to them properly!"

"Hahaha, if I still remember it next year, I'll consider it, but I don't think it's likely."

Hearing the store manager's cries of grief, several people set out again.

As time went by, the crowd gradually grew and it was already crowded. What's more, Chie Hoshino and Sachiko Matsumoto were carrying so many things, making it even more difficult for everyone to walk.

"The fireworks are still a while away. How about we store our things first? It would be uncomfortable to watch the fireworks with these things in your arms, right?"

"Sosuke is right, Sister has too much on her hands."

Ginjō suggested, and Hoshino Chiaki echoed it, saying a few words to the culprit's sister.

Chie Hoshino herself did not look dejected. Instead, she was scratching her head with a happy look on her face.

"Ahahaha, it's not that exaggerated."

"Eh? Really, I wasn't praising you, okay? Come on, I'll get half for you, let's go, is Sachiko okay?"

"Ah! Um... no... I, I'm fine..."

When asked suddenly, Matsumoto Sachiko hugged the otter stuffed toy in panic, wondering what she was thinking about...

Chapter 415: Sweeter than Qianqiu?

"What's wrong, Sachiko?"

Ginjo Sousuke noticed something was wrong with her and asked.

"Um, can I not store the otter in my hand for now?"

Matsumoto Sachiko hesitated for a moment, then answered him.

"Huh? How old are you, Sachiko? Do you still want to watch the fireworks while holding a toy doll?"

Chie Hoshino had an incredible expression on her face and asked in an exaggerated tone.

"Huh? Is it that weird?"

Perhaps there were too many children running around in the venue, which made Matsumoto Sachiko's mentality become childish.

"Of course it's weird, I feel like only elementary school students would do that."

Hoshino Chie responded pointedly, seemingly without any regard for her feelings at all.

"If you carry something this cute around, it might get dirty. Wouldn't that be even more pitiful?"

Compared to Chie Hoshino's straightforwardness, Ginjo's words sounded much gentler.

"Well...that's right..."

Matsumoto Sachiko nodded at him.

"If it gets dirty, you'll be sad, and you won't be able to enjoy the fireworks, right? So just be patient and store the otter first. It will be inconvenient to move around with such a big thing in your arms."

"Yeah, Sosuke is right. I'll listen to you and keep the child."

Ginjo Sosuke seems to be born with a special filter, and women of all ages cannot refuse what he says.

"We don't all have to go over to check in. It feels like a waste of time. Let's just split into two groups for now."

"Chie should continue to visit the stalls with Sachiko, and I'll take Chiaki with me, and then we'll call each other later to reunite."

If I bring Chie Hoshino with me, she will probably stop to take a look at every stall on the road. The fireworks display might start before she finds a locker.

So considering the issues of time and efficiency, Sosuke Ginjo made this suggestion.

"Yeah, I agree. There are still many stalls waiting for me over there."

Tempted by all kinds of delicious food and amusement rides, Chie Hoshino agreed immediately without thinking too much.

Matsumoto Sachiko and Hoshino Chiaki also nodded without any objection.

"Okay, then the task of taking care of Sachiko will be temporarily handed over to you, Chie."

"Don't worry, if there are any weird boys trying to do anything bad, I will kick them away."

Chie Hoshino placed her hands in front of her chest, one in front of the other, and instantly revealed the temperament of a karate master, making the two girls next to her laugh out loud.

"Just don't use too much force. If anything happens, call me immediately."

Although he was the youngest among the group, the tall and calm Ginjō acted like their parent.

"I see. I'll leave Chiaki to Sousuke. Don't let any strange bugs get close to her, okay?"

Chie Hoshino also reminded Sousuke Ginjo to take care of her sister.

"Okay, keep it on me."

Ginjo Sousuke answered simply.

"Haha, see you later then."

Before leaving, Chie Hoshino put her hand on Ginjo's shoulder and whispered, "Don't be too partial to Chiaki."

Without waiting for Ginjo's answer, she quickly walked towards her sister again, still in the same tone, whispering in her sister's ear.

As a result, after hearing this, Chiaki Hoshino quickly pouted and patted her arm.

The two sisters would occasionally fight like this, but the reasons for the fights had changed from various trivial matters in the past to now gradually becoming all related to Ginjo.

"Let's go, Sachiko."

Chie Hoshino made a playful face at Ginjō and her sister, then took Matsumoto Sachiko's arm and continued to stride towards the stall.

"What did Chie tell you?"

Ginjo was a little curious about what the two sisters had just whispered.

"It's nothing. You know my sister. She's never serious."

Chiaki Hoshino smiled helplessly at Ginjo.

Not long after the group operation began, Yincheng and his team found a few coin-operated lockers placed behind the stall.

Fortunately, there are still empty cabinets here, which saves a lot of time in looking for them at the next location.

It seems that they can easily meet up with the other two people, but Chiaki Hoshino seems to have some little ideas of her own.

"Now that we have stored our things, let's just take a stroll around the area, Sosuke."

"Anyway, there's still some time before the fireworks display, so my sisters won't mind."

This was the first time that Chiaki Hoshino had the chance to be alone with Ginjo since returning from Okinawa, so she naturally didn't want to let it go easily.

"Okay, seeing how excited Chie was just now, she probably forgot about the reunion."

No man would refuse an invitation from such a beautiful girl.

"Yeah, let's go, Sousuke."

This time, it was Chiaki Hoshino who took the initiative to hold Ginjo's hand, because when she turned around and looked around, she found that she and Ginjo were nothing special.

There are many couples holding hands in the bustling crowd, and the proportion of women wearing yukata being held hands is even higher.

"That's it."

Hoshino Chiaki narrowed her eyes slightly and looked up at Ginjō, a quiet murmur spilling out from her open and closing lips.

The two walked slowly forward and found that the venue had become even more crowded than before.

According to Chie Hoshino's previous research, the number of spectators at this summer event will exceed 500,000, and the terrifying crowd will stretch for several kilometers.

The numbers sound a bit empty, and only when you are actually in it can you feel its horror.

They walked hand in hand for not long before Ginjō stretched out his arm and held Hoshino Chiaki in his arms, because in a crowd of this size, they could be separated at any time.

Just as Ginjo had expected, Chiaki Hoshino's yukata outfit would easily cause a commotion, and sure enough, he soon felt that many of the men and women passing by were looking at them.

Looking at the couple secretly, the man was obviously stunned by Chiaki Hoshino's beauty, and he also showed an envious expression to Ginjō.

The female companion who followed closely behind him had an unhappy look on her face and looked like she was about to explode.

Yincheng could probably guess his future fate and could only silently express his condolences in his heart.

"The sun is about to set, but there are lights here, so it's very bright."

"Yes, that kind of mobile lighting is often used during school festivals, although it is not a formal floodlight."

Chiaki Hoshino nodded in agreement and raised her hands in front of her eyes, looking at the LED lighting, then looked around.

"Speaking of which, fireworks displays and school festivals have a lot in common, like there are a lot of stalls and a lot of people coming to participate."

"That's right, but in terms of atmosphere, this place is better."

"That's true, because Sousuke won't be able to accompany me during the school festival."

Chiaki Hoshino looked at Ginjō happily, gave a shy smile, and tilted her head slightly. Her hair was fixed with a hairpin, so the amplitude of her hair movement was less than usual.

Ginjo has been feeling the freshness brought by her outfit today. After she puts on the yukata, this cute move really has another kind of charm.

“But looking at the vendors here, they feel very different from the layout in school.”

Ginjo followed Chiaki Hoshino's gaze and looked at the vendors not far away with some confusion.

"If it's a school festival, there will be stalls on both sides of the road."

Perhaps to avoid obstructing the audience from enjoying the fireworks, the stalls were located in the opposite direction of the fireworks display, in a row on the side of the embankment.

"I see. Chiaki is really observant."

"No, because I often participate in exhibition activities, so I am more sensitive to this kind of things."

Faced with Ginjo's straightforward praise, Hoshino Chiaki seemed to have the illusion that she would be sucked into those gentle eyes looking at her.

Was this also the atmosphere of the fireworks display? Her heartbeat now sounded like fireworks popping up into the sky.

Chiaki Hoshino couldn't help but look away from Ginjō and look at the vendor.

"Let's go get some food in line, Sousuke?"

"Okay, what would you like to eat, Chiaki?"

"Well... let me think about it..."
