Chapter 281: 124. Summer Festival, Watermelon, Danger Approaching..._4
Kasahara Asuka puffed her cheeks angrily: "Why are you looking at other women?"
"Uh..."
"Look at me, look at me——"
Amidst the youthful, lively, and resentful voice, Fujiwara Reya laughed sincerely: "Okay, okay, can junior please let go of my foot?"
Kasahara Asuka huffed "Suit yourself" before lifting the wooden sandal off his foot.
"Senior." Fujiwara Reya turned his head to look at Hoshimi Rinko.
Hoshimi Rinko took a bite of an apple treat before slowly moving her foot aside.
"I think they’re acting weird!" Fujiwara Reya said as if trying to prove his innocence.
"Senior, you’re so lame." Kasahara Asuka criticized.
"You’ve misunderstood!" Fujiwara Reya subtly moved his gaze away from the camellias in the distance.
Kasahara Asuka held the takoyaki from earlier: "Pervert, disgusting!"
As she spoke, she handed the half-eaten takoyaki to the senior, indicating that he should eat it all.
"None of them are as good-looking as you and the senior, why would I care about them, right?" Fujiwara Reya continued to explain.
The two ladies ignored his explanation, their wooden sandals making crisp clicks on the stone road. Fujiwara Reya ate takoyaki using a skewer behind them, perhaps feeling frustrated, as the takoyaki didn’t taste as good as those in Tokyo.
The not-too-spacious venue was packed with crowds. Compared to the usual peaceful small town, it was as bustling as Shibuya’s crosswalk. Stalls were lined up, with the aroma of barbecue and sweets wafting through the dusk, overlapping voices and the constant sizzle of cooking.
"Next, I want cotton candy!"
"...Finish the yakisoba and tempura in your hands first."
"Senior, look, there are masks here! Hey, which one? Which one do you think is best?"
"...We already have masks!"
"Senior!"
"Hey, don’t kick me with your wooden sandals!"
"You’re not allowed to walk with the senior."
"You’re running too fast, I and the senior can’t keep up!"
"Hurry, let’s scoop goldfish——"
"Don’t run around!"
Kasahara Asuka was particularly high-spirited tonight.
It was probably because half a month’s training had stifled her, she was now more excited than even the passing grade schoolers, wanting to eat this, play that, and get that...
Hoshimi Rinko was somewhat bewildered.
As a fellow gifted miko, she couldn’t bring herself to such antics.
"Senior, cotton candy!" Kasahara Asuka’s eyes sparkled as she pulled Fujiwara Reya’s arm over to a cotton candy stall, "Two please, the large ones!"
Fujiwara Reya paid 1000 yen.
The cotton candy machine buzzed as it spun, releasing a sweet aroma. The vendor used a bamboo skewer to slowly gather the fluffy white sugar strands inside the machine into a three-colored cotton candy.
"Wow!" Kasahara Asuka’s eyes shone with excitement, full of amazement at the process. But after taking a bite of the cotton candy, she pushed it back to Fujiwara Reya with a look of disdain, "It’s too sweet, not tasty!"
Fujiwara Reya, holding the two largest cotton candies, walked over to Hoshimi Rinko, leaving a few crying children along the way.
"Senior, here you go!"
Hoshimi Rinko glanced at the half-bitten and the whole cotton candy in his hands.
With a brief thought, she leaned forward, took a small bite from the whole cotton candy, and after tasting it, she frowned and said: "Too sweet, you eat it."
Just like that, Fujiwara Reya ended up with two cotton candies, even though he originally didn’t want any.
"Senior, hurry up——"
Kasahara Asuka, running ahead, her light pink yukata gently swaying.
Her long, beautiful orange hair dancing in the wind like waves.
"Hey!"
Then, the girl looked back, blinking her clear big eyes.
Fujiwara Reya looked over to see a fruit stall, with a signboard advertising a couples challenge: Eat a whole watermelon within two minutes to get it for free and win 10,000 yen.
A few couples were attempting the challenge.
Almost all the couples had the males devouring the watermelon, while the females simply participated.
"Senior~~"
With the sweet aroma of egg cakes around them, Kasahara Asuka chuckled.
"Boss, we’re signing up!" Fujiwara Reya could only agree with her.
Based on his understanding of his junior, if he refused, she would definitely throw off her wooden sandals, sit on the ground, and throw a tantrum.
The previous group quickly finished, and none of the couples succeeded, the shop owner smilingly recouped the full watermelon payment, allowing the challengers to take their leftover watermelon home.
When it was Fujiwara Reya’s group’s turn, there were three couples participating.
The watermelon was already cut, each weighing about 3 kilograms, presented in a large tray.
"Start timing, three, two, one... begin!" At the shop owner’s signal and the crowd’s cheering, Kasahara Asuka held a piece of watermelon in her hands, nibbling it like a hamster gnawing on corn, each bite small but quick in frequency.
And as for Fujiwara Reya...
He held a piece in each hand without any intention of maintaining his image, directly leaving teeth marks on the rind, plowing through it from top to bottom.
"Swoosh——"
With cheeks puffed as if stuffed with two baseballs, juice dripped from the corners of his mouth.
After casually chewing for two seconds, he gulped it down, then swiftly devoured another piece, finishing two pieces in less than five seconds.
"Wow..."
The surrounding tourists buzzed with excitement, probably not expecting this refined and handsome young man to eat so wildly.
Shop owner: "..."
This meal went unpaid.
