Chapter 115 Chapter 115 Aquarium Appointment (Part 2)...
The chubby penguins can perfectly heal the human soul!
Now Yuyin wanted to take this sentence as the truth. Even though she could only wear tight and uncomfortable protective clothing and could only interact with the penguins carefully for a short while accompanied by the keeper, she felt that her tense and exhausted mind from the days of guarding missions had been completely sublimated.
Of course, when she turned her head and saw Jingwu next to her, and saw him pulling at his protective suit with an expression of disgust but having to endure it, Yuyin couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh secretly.
In order to restore the Antarctic ecology, the penguin house is equipped with temperature control equipment to maintain a suitable low temperature. In the summer, tourists wear cool clothes. To prevent them from freezing, they must put on protective clothing specially prepared by the venue before entering the penguin house. This clothing is designed for cold protection and its appearance is naturally not very beautiful. Not only does it look very bloated, but it is also worn over the original clothes, which naturally makes tourists feel uncomfortable. It makes tourists feel like another large and bulky penguin.
To use Jingwu's usual catchphrase to describe it, it would be "too unglamorous", so Yuyin was not surprised at all that he showed such a disgusted expression.
Atobe Keigo was always keeping an eye on her, and he immediately caught sight of Tamane's smirk.
If this had happened to someone else, like when he was out with the guys like Oshitari, he would have immediately lost his temper if they had dared to laugh at him. At this moment, he could only smile helplessly, pretending he hadn't noticed, and comfort himself in his heart that being able to make a beautiful woman smile was worth wearing such plain clothes.
According to the regulations, each passenger has a fixed amount of contact time with the penguins and it cannot be too long, so when the time is almost up, the keeper next to them will remind them, and in the end Yuyin can only wave goodbye to the penguins reluctantly.
She thought regretfully, why did it feel like the passage of time changed as soon as she entered the penguin house? Otherwise, it didn't feel like much time had passed, so how could time be up so quickly?
Atobe naturally noticed her reluctance to leave and quickly suggested, "If you like penguins so much, why don't we make an appointment to enter again later?"
"No," Yuyin shook her head firmly, even though she was fascinated by the penguins. "Jingwu, you have plans for today, right? I won't disrupt them. If you want to see penguins, you can come back later when you have time."
Tsuchiya did have a detailed plan for today's entire day at the aquarium and surrounding amusement parks, but the activities he planned for the day could actually be changed flexibly. It would be fine to add a penguin house, as long as it did not affect the final and most important arrangement in the evening.
After hearing Yuyin's refusal, Atobe didn't insist anymore, but just paid attention to the fact that she loved penguins. He was thinking about whether he should build a small penguin breeding house at home, apply for documents and get a few penguins to raise. It seems that there are also species of penguins that live in temperate regions?

When we came out of the penguin house, it was already lunch time.
Of course, Keigo Atobe would not choose to settle for the fast food in the park. He turned around and took Yuyin to a high-end restaurant near Tokyo Bay.
After lunch and a short rest, they were taken back to the park by the Atobe family's special car.
On the way back, when the vehicle passed the bridge, Yuyin looked out the window and keenly noticed that there were signs of damage in several places on the bridge. One of the places was particularly damaged, and a maintenance warning sign had been hung on the outside. The marks were obviously caused by the explosion.
"Excuse me, what happened on the bridge?" Yuyin casually asked the driver in front.
Because a main road was cordoned off for repairs, other vehicles had to squeeze into several other lanes. The bridge already had a lot of traffic, and now it became even more congested. The driver of the Tomokazu family's private car held the steering wheel and drove the luxury car, which could reach a speed of up to 240 kilometers per hour, at the speed of a single person walking. He still looked focused and didn't relax at all.
Hearing his young master's distinguished guest in the back seat ask a question, he finally snapped out of his thoughts and replied, "The news reports say there was a serious pileup on the bridge last night, and a large truck exploded!"
Speaking of car accidents, although it was not his own experience, the driver felt a sense of fear and was even more grateful that he did not have the misfortune to encounter such a thing.
"But fortunately, although it was such a serious accident, there were no casualties. It can be considered a blessing in disguise." The driver's tone was still relatively happy when he mentioned that there were no casualties in the accident.
Listening to the driver's story, Yuyin vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a thing. There seemed to be a report about a truck explosion causing a power outage on the east coast line. When she was at home, she used to turn on the TV and listen to current affairs news while eating in the evening or morning. Of course, the Atobe family did not have this habit. Atobe herself preferred to read economic newspaper news, which caused her to be one step behind the driver who was always paying attention to the road conditions.
Thinking of the bullet holes on the bridge that she had seen briefly before, Yuyin fell into deep thought. That kind of power was not something that an ordinary gun could produce. If she remembered correctly, it should be the special marks left by the AWM sniper rifle bullet.
Thanks to her years of experience working in two official agencies, Scepter 4 and the Special Ability Agent Department, she, a psychic mage, has some knowledge of guns and ammunition.
Then the news report packaged a serious incident that was very likely related to a sniper rifle as an explosion caused purely by a car accident. The reason behind this is worth pondering. Judging from Yuyin's many years of experience in official work, it is likely that it involves a confidential incident that cannot be disclosed to the public.
"Is there any problem?" Seeing that Yuyin looked a little strange, Jibe couldn't help but ask.
Yuyin shook her head slightly: "I hope I am overthinking it."
She turned her head to look at Atobe. This "accidental car accident" happened near the aquarium and amusement park. She couldn't help but think too much about it. She just hoped that the location was really just a coincidence and had nothing to do with her or the mission to protect Atobe, but she still had a vague concern in her heart.

In the afternoon, more and more tourists came to Dongdu Aquarium. During the summer vacation, many parents brought their children, or couples went out for dates, and they would choose this place. There were so many people in the park that it was almost shoulder to shoulder.
There is also a separate dolphin performance hall in the aquarium park, which holds a total of five performances a day.
Originally, seeing that Tamane liked penguins so much, Tezuka guessed that she would also like dolphins, so he made an appointment for the afternoon show in advance. However, when Tamane heard that it was a dolphin show, her face changed instantly. She took Tezuka's hand and said in a low voice that she didn't want to watch it.
"Keigo, did you know? All things have spirits..." Yuyin raised her head and looked at the dolphin show poster in front of her, her voice distant, "In ancient times, shrine maidens were responsible for conveying the will of the gods, building a bridge of communication between humans and gods, and humans and nature. Some maidens could even communicate with animals."
Later, spiritual energy became scarce, eight million gods disappeared, people's faith was gone, the mountain and forest environment was severely damaged, and animals were slaughtered.
Dolphin shows are among the most cruel. While disguised as entertainment for people, especially children, they conceal countless wild dolphins captured and slaughtered in Dolphin Bay. Every trained movement performed by the dolphins in the show is preceded by countless brutal tortures. After learning this truth, Yuyin has remained wary of animal performances. While she may not be able to completely change them, she can use her limited power to actively resist them.
Atobe Keigo listened to Yuyin's low voice and thought about something. He thought about going back and contacting Suzuki Sonoko, the unglamorous woman, to discuss changing the dolphin performance hall. Anyway, the Toudou Aquarium has been expanding and renovating, so he could just invest to make up for the loss.
Atobe already had a plan in mind, but he didn't plan to say it out loud right now. In his opinion, a man's actions are much more important and reliable than his words. He would wait until the dolphin show was actually cancelled before telling her to avoid disappointing her.
"Is that so? Then let's go to the amusement park first."
Atobe rubbed his hair and said with some distress.
His annoyance wasn't that Yuyin had been upset by the dolphin show; his relationship with her wouldn't be altered by this minor misstep. Rather, it was that removing that part of the trip would free up a significant amount of time in his schedule. According to his original plan, he'd wait until the evening of the Toudou Aquarium's unique water-color light show to begin before taking Yuyin on the Ferris wheel at the amusement park.
According to the time he had calculated in advance, the Ferris wheel cabin he and Yuyin were riding in would reach its apex at the climax of the water-colored light and shadow show.
Atobe Keigo decided to confess his feelings to Tamane at that time.
That’s right, it’s a confession.
Atobe Keigo had been thinking about confessing his feelings for a long time. After realizing his feelings, with his perfectionist and picky personality, he had originally planned to make the confession as grand as possible.
However, he soon discovered that such a grand confession plan encountered huge difficulties in execution. At the critical moment of preparing for the national competition, he did not have the time to arrange those things. Therefore, if he wanted to perfectly realize his gorgeous imagination, he could only wait until the national competition was over.
But in the daily interactions with Tamane, Keigo Atobe felt that his pride in self-control was severely challenged. He wanted to confess his feelings as soon as possible, to immediately and truly wear the title of "Tamane's boyfriend." When peach blossoms like Sengoku Kiyomi came up to him, he could openly stand up and hug Tamane and say, "Yeah, I am Tamane's boyfriend. What do you think?"
However, "as soon as possible" and "perfect" cannot be achieved at the same time. If he wants to confess his love as soon as possible, he can only give up those grand and magnificent arrangements. The only suitable time to confess his love now is the week before the opening of the national competition.
After much thought, Keigo Atobe decided that today was the only day off because of the group draw, so it would be the most suitable day for a date and confession.
*
Of course, Yuyin was completely unaware of Atobe's complex psychological activities. As soon as she entered the amusement park, her mind was immediately occupied by all kinds of dazzling entertainment activities.
As mentioned before, due to the "strange disease" that started in fifth grade, Yuyin didn't make many friends. In addition, her parents were always on business trips overseas, so she rarely went to places like amusement parks to play.
So once she entered this place, she felt like a fish in water and enjoyed herself very much.
"Keigo Keigo, look over there, there's someone shooting darts!"
When Atobe looked over, he immediately understood why Yuyin was so excited, because among the large and small dolls displayed in the prize column, there were many penguin dolls.
