The blue hairs scattered and rippled slightly in the air. It looked like the attacker was about to fall flat on his face.
Taro swiftly reached out and grabbed the attacker's arm, pulling him forcefully. The attacker crashed into his arms.
The person who arrived was none other than Hikawa Hina. Taro calmly looked down at her in his arms, his gaze completely unwavering.
Although the two are very similar, both Hina and Taro maintained their usual expressions.
Momoi Taro's calm demeanor, Hikawa Hina's nonchalant smile... The two stared at each other in silence, until finally, Hina broke the silence with an even brighter smile.
"Hehe, are you captivated by the adorable little Ricai?"
Taro didn't react to her teasing words, released her arm, and ordered, "Jump rope 3000 times."
"Haha, Taro really doesn't hold back! I'll owe you one for now, I have to see my sister later." Hina chuckled, hands on her hips. "As always~. But, I wish you could at least react to Hina's cuteness."
"You've used this trick four times already." Taro raised his head, his expression unwavering. But when he heard that Hina had made an appointment with Saya, he raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Well then, I'll come up with even better ideas next time." Hina didn't seem to have any particular emotional fluctuations. "Speaking of which, where is Taro going so late?"
“Someone asked me to meet them.” Taro glanced at his phone and replied, “Sumi’s Mitsuba Hatsuka.”
After meeting Misumi Hatsuka (the younger sister), Taro was still willing to add a modifier to his address.
"Ah, I've heard of them!" Hina exclaimed in surprise, "A really popular idol group lately..."
Seeing Taro glance at his phone, Hina also craned her neck to look, then exclaimed, "Oh no, we're going to be late—"
"...Don't you and Saya live together? Why is there a risk of being late for your date?" he asked, a little puzzled. Then he bent down, picked up the felt hat from the ground, and put it on the other person's head.
In Taro's memory, this kind of thing seemed to have happened several times before.
"Of course it's because I just finished work and rushed over. I have all sorts of jobs too, don't I?"
"Speaking of which... Taro seems to have been coming to live shows all the time, but why has he never come to a fan handshake event?"
"Isn't this a very simple principle?" Taro raised his head and said matter-of-factly, "I'm not a fan of yours at all, so naturally I won't go to the handshake event!"
“That’s true,” Hina replied without getting angry, in the same matter-of-fact tone, “We are rivals!”
"There's no need to repeat things that are taken for granted."
"That's true. Well then, I'll go now. My sister is waiting for me."
Hina straightened her hat, waved to Taro with a strange smile in her voice, and quickly tried to leave.
Taro didn't intend to dwell on it, and in order not to be late, he quickened his pace.
……
Two people who should have gone their separate ways are now walking on the same path.
The two walked on in silence, exchanging glances. Then, as if on cue, they entered a fast-food restaurant…
"...When you said you had made plans with Saya, I had a feeling it was going to happen." Taro's voice was calm, but Hina could detect a strange confidence in it.
She pursed her lips and said nonchalantly, "I thought of that when you frowned. Taro's expression is as easy to read as ever."
"Let me make this clear first: if you interrupt my date with my sister, even if it's Taro, I'll get angry—"
Taro remained noncommittal, pushed open the door, and went inside with Hina. As soon as Hina entered the fast-food restaurant, she glanced around.
She saw someone with the same hair color as herself. Her eyes lit up, and she shouted loudly in that direction, "Sister—!"
The Japanese food vendor's shouts attracted the attention of most people in the restaurant, including someone with the same hair color as her—Hikawa Sayo.
"Hina!" Saya rushed over and grabbed Hina's hand: "Don't do this in public. As a celebrity, I hope you can have some self-awareness."
"Ugh—I got scolded by my older sister." Hina lowered her head dejectedly, and Saya then apologized to the others in the hall.
After Saya finished negotiating with the others, Taro finally spoke up, "Saya, it's been a long time."
Saya was slightly startled when her name was suddenly called. She turned her head and noticed Momoi Taro. She had been so focused on Hina that she hadn't noticed him.
She forced herself to remain calm and said, "It's been a long time, Mr. Momoi."
"Yes, but there will be plenty of time to see each other after that."
“Yes, I’m looking forward to it.” Saya nodded slightly to him, insisting, “It’s not good to just stay at the door all the time, why don’t you come in first?”
"No, I have an appointment." Taro refused decisively and then left.
Saya pulled Hina towards their seats, and Hina asked in confusion, "Sister, what did you mean by that just now?"
"About the joint live performance, I told you about it before, right?" Saya sighed.
"Oh, that's what it is. I'll go cheer for you, sister!" Hina smiled, took Saya's hand, and sat back down with her.
And Momoi Taro... also found someone to ask him out...
Dong Yin O8 Shiqi is Wu (Six) Chapter Thirty, Triangle Hatsune
She still cried out... Miku Miku sat down in the fast food restaurant with a hint of unease.
Before Taro arrived, she waited for him with a mix of trepidation and anticipation.
Choosing this place to meet was naturally a decision Hatsune Miku made.
The layout of the shopping street is different from other places. Even at night, there are quite a lot of people coming and going here.
This can prevent their conversation from escalating, since most people would restrain their emotions in front of others.
Although... Momoi Taro isn't that kind of person, this is mainly to prevent himself from getting emotional.
Before Taro arrived, Misaki Miku had already fallen into deep thought...
How much did Momoi Taro actually know about the things between my sisters, for example?
Is the "Triangle Hatsuka" thing actually a matter between two people? Also, is it true that I am not the Triangle Hatsuka, but my sister is?
More importantly, does he know about his relationship with Xiao Xiang?
Having more or less intelligence can make a very significant difference.
But for Miku Miku, it was almost a complete mystery. She ordered a hamburger set meal and waited anxiously for Taro to arrive in the store.
The appointment time with Momoi Taro was 9:30 pm, but it was already past 9:20 pm and Momoi Taro still hadn't shown up.
She anxiously looked at her phone and muttered to herself, "Why hasn't it appeared yet..."
Just then, she seemed to sense some commotion at the door, so she looked up and saw two blue-haired girls standing in front of the door, seemingly talking about something.
The girl with shorter hair was recognized by Hatsuka; she was none other than Hikawa Hina, a member of the popular idol group Pastel*Palettes.
So, is the person next to her Hikawa Saya? Misaka Hatsuka only glanced at her twice before lowering her head; she wasn't particularly interested in other people's private affairs.
Moreover, she was thinking about the most important thing in her life, so she had to prepare her thoughts for the conversation to come.
She murmured softly, "Mr. Momoi, I'm so happy to have you here today..."
Just as Misaki Miku was preparing her speech, and not long after the commotion at the door subsided, Taro Momoi's calm voice rang in her ears.
"Why do you want to see me?"
Misaki Miku looked up in surprise, and sure enough, Momoi Taro was sitting right in front of her. He had appeared in front of her without her noticing.
Hatsune's eyes lit up slightly. She leaned forward, placed her hands on the table, and said somewhat urgently, "Mr. Momoi, you've arrived. I have something I want to discuss with you."
Taro reached out and stopped Hatsuka, then reached into his pocket, pulled out a photo of Hatsuka and a pen, and said, "Before we begin, I'd like to ask you to sign your name."
"An autograph...?" Taro's unexpected action calmed Hatsune down a bit. She realized she had indeed lost her composure. She composed herself slightly and asked politely:
"Who is this for?" Misaki Miku was certainly not so arrogant as to think that it was Momoi Taro who wanted her autograph.
“Aine…Chihaya Aine,” Taro said calmly, arms crossed.
Miku Miku smiled slightly and wrote on the photo, "To Chihaya Aine, wishing you all the best in playing the guitar—Miku Miku."
She then returned the pen and photo to Taro. Then, straightening her posture, she said seriously, "Mr. Momoi, I called you out because I have a question for you..."
"Is it about Chu Hua? / You didn't tell Xiao Xiang about our situation, did you?"
The two men uttered completely different sentences. Taro paused slightly, then raised his head and asked, "What does this have to do with Xiangzi?"
"...No, don't worry about it." Hatsune regretted that she had been too hasty and revealed her bottom line to Taro.
Taro looked at her thoughtfully and asked softly, "Sanka, is there anything you want to ask about Hatsuka?"
"No..." Hatsune still didn't have the courage to face the matter of Hatsuka. All she wanted to know was whether Toyokawa Shoko knew about it.
Now that she had gotten the answer from Momoi Taro, Hatsune felt much relieved, and so she tried to state her core demand:
"Mr. Momoi, between us... it's a matter between her and me, is it possible not to tell Xiaoxiang?"
Hatsune was really scared, and she wanted to avoid even something as simple as mentioning Misaki Hatsuka's name.
"Well, if Xiangzi doesn't ask."
Upon hearing Taro's answer, Hatsune was initially delighted, but then she was taken aback. What did he mean by "if Shoko hadn't asked"?
With a sense of unease, she asked softly, "Mr. Momoi, what does it mean if Xiaoxiang doesn't ask?" She stared intently at Taro, waiting for his answer.
Taro crossed his arms, raised his head, and said with an unquestionable attitude, "I can't lie. If Xiangzi asks her about the things between the two of you, I will tell her."
Unexpectedly, after hearing Taro's words, Hatsune Miku grabbed Taro's arm, somewhat agitated, and pleaded:
"Please, please, this is the only thing you absolutely mustn't tell Xiaoxiang. If Xiaoxiang finds out, I'll be in big trouble!"
The slightly louder sound attracted the attention of everyone in the fast food restaurant. The intense atmosphere made Hatsune immediately realize that something was wrong in the air. She lowered her head and covered her face with her baseball cap.
She was a little apprehensive. If her secret were discovered, it might cause a huge commotion. She could only pray that there weren't any private investigators or reporters involved...
What drove her to despair even more than these unknowns were Momoi Taro's resolute words:
"If it's not going to work, then it's not going to work. If Xiangzi asks me, I will definitely answer truthfully."
After saying that, Taro stood up, raised his head and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving."
After speaking, he paused slightly, and seeing that Chu Hua seemed to have no intention of continuing the conversation, he left the restaurant.
Everything was messed up... Hatsune slumped into a chair, resting her head on her arm to cover her face.
Despair enveloped her heart.
If this were a Conan movie set, then Taro would... well, it seems even if Hatsune Miku had murderous intent, she couldn't do anything about Taro.
