Junior High School
The thoughts in his mind became clearer and clearer, and he explained the whole process word by word, honestly and without exaggeration. Inujuan Ji didn't want to play tricks on Hinata Aoi and use any means to trick her into coming.
He also didn't know whether Hinata Aoi had plans to go to the fireworks festival, but Nishimiya asked him to ask since he had the contact information, and he completely respected Hinata Aoi's choice without any reason.
Line after line of text was transmitted to the mobile phone screen. Hinata Aoi looked at the words that explained the exchange of contact information since graduation from elementary school. She felt a little funny, but also felt the heavy care between the lines.
No wonder she sometimes felt that Goujuan was a little more reserved around her. It was obvious that she was just continuing the way they got along in elementary school. She even wanted to be closer to Goujuan in every way in order to stay away from other people... It turned out that Goujuan consciously became the monkey in the story of killing the chicken to scare the monkey.
Maybe if she told Goujuan now that she wanted to break up with him, Goujuan wouldn't even ask her why. He would just look at her with the hurt look that he had expected, and then beg her to say no.
But after going through so much, she could no longer give up on Goujuanji so easily.
As for Xigong's invitation, she should have refused it. Without any external constraints, she should have refused any invitation. This was the way to practice her idea of not connecting with others, not affecting others because of her own situation, and living an ordinary life.
But now she was confused for a moment...
It doesn't matter just this once, right?
I lost the desire to refuse, and the scale automatically fell to the side of agreement before I could decide which way to tilt, and my fingers also gave an affirmative response.
After saying goodbye to Kageyama Tobio who had just been attacked by Oikawa Toru, Hinata Aoi went to meet up with Inumaki Tsuchiya and the others.
Nishimiya Glass felt strangely nervous upon seeing Hinata Aoi, and waved her hand in a flustered greeting. Her younger sister, innocent yet straightforward, looked directly at Hinata Aoi with a scrutinizing gaze, wanting to analyze whether this girl, praised so highly by her older sister, was truly worthy of this award.
It was really because Nishimiya's eyes were so penetrating that Hinata Aoi noticed it before she even got close and looked back at her.
The younger sister shrank back at being looked at, then stubbornly stretched her neck to look back. Nishimiya noticed and quickly pulled her behind him, introducing her using sign language:
"Long time no see, this is my sister, Yuzuru Nishimiya... Shall we go?"
In this awkward atmosphere, the four of them rushed to the temple fair together.
The few of them were very quiet along the way, occasionally making sign language gestures to each other.
Nishimiya finally lost her patience and awkwardly tried to find a topic to talk about with Hinata Aoi. Hinata Aoi, who had already decided to go out and have fun, didn't need to make excuses and even took the initiative to ask about Nishimiya Shoko's recent situation. The team was speechless for a while and the harmony within them was unusual.
The further we walked, the more pedestrians there were on the street, and it became noisier.
Nishimiya Yuzuru realized that he was the only healthy person in the team, and suddenly felt the burden on him was heavier. He let go of his sister's hand and wanted to run to the front of the team to charge, but was stopped by the quick-eyed and quick-handed Hinata Aoi and sent back to Nishimiya Shoko.
"There are more people here, keep an eye on my sister and don't let her get lost."
Nishimiya nodded seriously and held Yuzuru's hand tighter.
Goujuan's eyes fell on the sisters' clasped hands with some envy, and he stole a glance at Hinata Aoi's profile, but suddenly he felt a warmth on his fingers.
If other children have something, your own children should of course try their best to satisfy it. Hinata Aoi didn't notice the reddening of Gojuan's ears, nor did she see Nishimiya giving Gojuan a thumbs-up. She just walked forward, avoiding the pedestrians.
When you walk to the entrance of the temple fair, you will see dazzling colorful lights on every stall.
Since no one was very hungry, they went to the game stalls first. After looking around, they saw Yuzuru's eyes shining brightly at the shooting stall, so they chose the one with the most variety of gifts and lined up.
Standing next to Yuzuru, who volunteered to communicate with the store owner, Hinata Aoi quickly paid and handed the toy gun to her sister.
Yuzuru subconsciously turned around to look at his sister, took the gun and turned around to put it into Nishimiya Shoko's arms.
Seeing this scene of sister and sister respecting each other, Hinata Aoi raised her other gun to indicate that she could play with one more. She and Gojumaki had practiced at the shooting range before, so she had no great interest in this game and only paid for two guns.
The distribution was balanced. Encouraged by her sister, Nishimiya Glass was the first to step onto the "battlefield". With her sister's encouragement, she felt as if she was carrying the hope of the whole village. However, she still couldn't control her shaking hands. After finally hitting the target with two shots, the wooden sign only shook slightly, but did not fall down.
The level was too poor, and Nishimiya felt that he had wasted Hinata Aoi's money and was too embarrassed to play again.
Seeing that Nishimiya didn't like this game very much, Gojuan first glanced at Hinata Aoi who was instructing Nishimiya's sister how to play with the gun, then turned around and pointed at the wooden sign representing the potted plant that Nishimiya had tried to hit several times but failed, and asked her if she liked it.
Nishimiya was much more relaxed in front of Gojumaki and nodded in agreement without much hesitation.
Goujuan didn't hesitate and paid the money to get the gun. There was no reason for him to let his benefactor teacher who taught him sign language go home disappointed. After testing the accuracy of the shot, he started to think about shooting wherever he wanted. However, some wooden signs were more difficult to take down and it took several shots to take them down.
Nishimiya watched on, stunned, having forgotten she was playing. Hinata Aoi's body blocked her view, bringing her back to her senses. Obediently, she was half-held while adjusting her shooting stance and angle, her face flushing as she smelt the refreshing, pleasant scent of laundry detergent.
After getting the spoils from the store owner, Goujuan and Nishimiya looked at this scene with red eyes of envy, while the store owner looked around and was confused about the relationship between the characters.
Who are they really meant to be with? Is it really that complicated for kids these days to make friends?
Seeing that Nishimiya successfully took down the wooden sign with her own efforts, Hinata Aoi was very satisfied with her teaching results. She asked Yuzuru for the gray rabbit doll that she had used during the demonstration without any embarrassment, and even asked the store owner for a bag to put it in.
Looking at the bag Hinata Aoi was carrying, Goujuan immediately associated it with the big bag of souvenirs he had received before.
That time, he didn't even get to see Hinata Aoi, and received a thoughtful gift and cold words from Gojo Satoru. But now, he can go to the temple fair with Hinata Aoi and watch her bring gifts to others.
Uncontrollable joy climbed into his heart. Goujuan pulled at his mask to suppress his smile, and walked out of the crowd surrounding the stall to watch the fun and offered to catch goldfish.
He was so skilled at catching goldfish that he treated it like catching koi, bringing good luck to his friends.
The passersby who had just gathered around the shooting stall were attracted by the sight of a few children picking up gifts as if they were buying goods, and they also wanted to try it.
Now Goujuanji is on a "killing spree" at the goldfish stall, and he even seduces the clumsy guys into thinking that he can do it too. They go to the edge of the pond and have a "fight" but get nothing.
Some unlucky passersby who were deceived twice by Goujuan's relaxed attitude began to think that Goujuan and his friends were hired by the store owners with their own money.
There were also people who humbly asked Goujuan for advice, and Goujuan really wanted to teach, but communication was not smooth. Even with Yuzuru acting as a translator, he was unable to explain his techniques clearly.
Just a "whoosh" and a "pop" and the goldfish is in the bowl. Ultimately, it still depends on the feel of the touch.
Passersby who didn’t understand after listening twice were too embarrassed to ask again, and just said “Oh”, “I see”, “I understand”, and went on to figure it out on their own.
Perhaps because the translation was too tiring, Yuzuru's stomach started to growl.
The others also felt a little hungry, so they split up into two groups and lined up to buy food.
Hinata Aoi and Inumaki Tsuchiya went to buy okonomiyaki and octopus dumplings, while Nishimiya took his sister to queue up to buy apple candy.
"Oh, sorry!"
In crowded places, collisions are inevitable. The clear and bright female voice on the other side couldn't conceal the brightness in her voice even when she was apologizing.
Wearing the same pink and white yukata as Nishimiya Shoko, Egiro Mika clasped her hands together and apologized to Nishimiya again.
There were so many people at the temple fair that they decided to split up into two groups to queue up for the purchases. However, Kuroo Tetsuro would be on his own, while she would lead the grinding team.
It was impossible to speak in front of those popular stalls, so it was better to follow her to the dessert stall where there were more girls and children to buy apple candies and chocolate bananas.
Mika is a pet of her own, and she doesn't expect that Ma Mo will be able to overcome his fear and become a social cow one day. She is just thankful that he is healthy and has fewer fevers.
After the collision, Yuzuru went to check on his sister and found that she was fine and her clothes were not dirty. He then replied:
"It's okay, we bumped into each other, no need to apologize."
The deliberately low and serious voice made him sound like a little adult. After listening to Yuzuru's words, Mika couldn't help but pinch the child's face, and a motherly smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Good boy, what grade are you in?"
Mika was entertaining the child, but Mo Mo could only stand by, at a loss as to where to look.
My sister is still here, how dare you, Mika?!
His game console was also confiscated by Mika before he entered the temple fair. Now he doesn't even have anything to distract himself... It seems that sooner or later he will be forced to fight to the death by the two young followers of the community!
Looking at Grinding's pupils shaking, scratching left and right awkwardly, wanting to do 800 fake moves in one second, Nishimiya Glass was not embarrassed at all.
It was not until Yuzuru was embarrassed and jumped into his arms that he smiled and hugged his sister and said goodbye to Mika and the others.
Discovering that they were heading to the same destination, Mika insisted on treating the Nishimiya sisters. Nishimiya Naoko waved her hands repeatedly but could not resist Mika's enthusiasm. She could only take the two apple candies and leave the stall as Mika waved and watched her go.
The Nishimiya sisters who were fed did not dare to say in front of the stall that they wanted to buy more, for fear that the strange but enthusiastic girl would give them all the money.
After buying some other food stalls, Nishimiya and the others went to the designated gathering point to meet up with Hinata Aoi and the others.
After dividing the food in his hands, Xigong took out the two apple candies.
"Hinata, you take one, and my sister and I will share one."
Before buying the candy apples, Goujuan made it clear that he didn't need to bring his own. Hinata Aoi didn't hesitate and took one from Nishimiya.
"Thanks."
Candy apples are not easy to eat. If you open your mouth wide and bite directly, your teeth will slip on the candy coating, and the eating process will not be very pretty.
First, lick a hole in the sweet sugar coating, touch the real flesh, and then take the first bite. The rest can be easily chewed together, becoming sweeter and more fragrant in your mouth and then swallowed into your stomach.
"It's delicious."
Hinata Aoi had eaten half of it and couldn't finish it anymore, so Gojuan saw it and took it away. He found a dark spot, pulled down his mask, and finished it in a few bites without wasting any food.
Every lunch they had together ended like this.
Hinata Aoi's appetite is not small, but her mother thinks her daughter is growing up, so she feeds her more.
Hinata's mother would not allow leftovers to be served on the table again, so in order to avoid waste, Goujuan, who had a better appetite, had to eat more.
Seeing such a natural movement, Nishimiya felt that his surprise was an exaggeration.
I felt that Hinata and Gojumaki had really become good friends.
With a hint of melancholy and envy, Xigong withdrew his gaze and continued to look at the sky, waiting for the fireworks to appear.
The gorgeous fireworks are about to bloom before our eyes, from grand to dim, and this summer is about to come to an end.
