"Yuzu, are you still thinking about going to the national competition?"
"That's why I joined the club. I didn't think it would be a good start, but now I feel a little hopeful. After hearing that they would be eliminated, these people didn't object, and instead worked harder."
Dream?
Hiiragi Rinka talked to herself in her heart. She had known Jujubezawa Yuzu since elementary school, and they were members of the same wind instrument club in junior high school.
You's personality is somewhat casual, but her goals are very clear.
Every time she saw her practicing, Rinka Hiiragi felt like she was being pulled away from her good friend.
I feel that she is becoming more and more powerful, but also getting further and further away from me.
What is your own dream?
Rinka Hiiragi was a little dazed. She suddenly remembered Jiuhuayue who would play the trumpet solo on the rooftop every day after school.
With that hard work and persistence, Rinka Hiiragi feels that her goal is clearer than Yuzu's.
The same is true for Chitose.
Hiiragi Rinka held the cello and lowered her head and said:
"I don't know who I should support. Yue-chan and Chitose are both new friends of mine. I don't want them to argue with each other."
"Isn't it enough to choose the one you like the most? Rinka, it's on you." Shirozawa Yuzu sniffed her face expressionlessly, "Chitose-san's scent is stronger."
"No, we are all friends, we should be treated equally."
Hiiragi Rinka blushed as she said this, but she had no good way to help the two of them.
"Besides, Yue and Chitose don't seem to be on good terms right now."
"In that case, why don't you just try to understand each other?"
"Understand?" Hiiragi Rinka looked into Jushizawa Yuzu's calm eyes.
"Temple fair," said Jujube Shirozawa. "Didn't that funny man say yesterday that there will be a temple fair in Sapporo during the Golden Week starting on the 29th?"
Hiiragi Rinka remembered, "Oh, the county festival is here."
The so-called prefectural festival in Sapporo is actually the spring festival hosted by the Matsumae Shrine in Sapporo, which runs from May 1st to the early morning of May 2nd every year.
Because the sacrifice is to the fox god, it is also called the Jade Fox Festival.
There are many theories about the origin of the festival. Some say that there were originally many foxes on the island of Hokkaido, and that the Ainu people had always followed them. Others say that the festival was born because the ancestor of the Matsumae family was saved by a jade fox.
On the day of the festival, a goddess will first purify herself at the shrine, followed by a female official riding a colorful sedan chair and wearing formal attire, followed by maidens and girls, and actors playing music.
The goddess wore twelve pieces of clothing and crossed the river in a bullock cart.
By then, tea-offering ceremonies, teahouses, temporary resting places, tea kettles, and snack stalls can be seen everywhere on the quaint streets, which will be dazzling.
The role of the goddess can only be played by young unmarried women, usually selected by Matsumae Shrine, who are both elegant and gorgeous.
Because everyone has been practicing hard these days, Mr. Fujii wanted everyone to relax more, so he deliberately mentioned this festival, right?
Hiiragi Rin thought to herself.
"Who is Rinka going to invite along?"
"I don't know. What about you, You?"
"I'm with my father."
"It's great to be with my father."
Rinka Hiiragi thought about the scene of going there with her parents.
[Rinka! Mom and Dad were so happy today that they got drunk. I’ll leave the matter of getting home to you!]
"."
Hiiragi Rinka quickly shook her head.
"I'll go ask Chitose and Yue."
When the practice ended in the evening, everyone went home one by one, and Chitose Yangkui met Rinka Hiiragi who came to talk to her.
Chitose Yang Kui was about to leave.
"Oh, you mean the Jade Fox Festival? I'll go."
"that."
The way Hiiragi Rinka looked at her looked so soft and weak, so cute that it made people want to hug her tightly.
"I understand what Rinka means. But." Yang Kui Chitose was also quite embarrassed, "I actually have an appointment. I'm sorry, Rinka."
"OK then"
Rinka Hiiragi was quite sad that her good friend could not go to the temple fair with her.
But at this moment, Jiu Huayue came out of the classroom carrying a music box. She stood straight, with long black hair shining brightly.
"Tsuki-Tsuki-chan!"
Jiuhuayue stopped and turned around, seeing Hiiragi Rinka and Yang Kui Chitose standing in front of her, "What's wrong?"
"Jade Fox Festival, um, are you free?"
"Festival?"
"Um"
"I have an appointment with Da-"
Jiu Huayue quickly shut up, she almost said the word "uncle".
But Yang Kui Qiansui understood, she was extremely surprised and frowned:
"You bullshit!"
"What nonsense?" Jiu Huayue asked back.
"Brother, there's no way he's going to have a date with you!"
Jiu Huayue seemed very calm: "Why not? He did promise me."
".No. Impossible!"
Jiuhuayue suddenly frowned.
"Or did you make an appointment with him in advance?"
Yang Kui Chitose stopped talking, just clenched her hands and stared at her.
Jiuhuayue now had a guess.
Chitose-san probably hasn't told the uncle about this yet.
But in her heart, she had already decided on the candidate.
Jiuhuayue didn't even look at her, and said in a cold tone with a hint of mockery: "In my opinion, Chitose-san is too self-conscious and too confident, so that someone got there first without even noticing."
This woman is so annoying!
Suddenly came here, not only to snatch my tree brother away, but also to humiliate me arrogantly.
However, nowadays, Chitose Yangkui is too lazy to bother with her.
She told Brother Shu about this half a month in advance.
Brother Shu also agreed to go to the festival with him!
Little Jiuhua, you are still pretending here!
Yang Kui Qiansui imitated Jiuhua Yue and raised her chin high: "Jiuhua classmate is the one, I don't know where you get your confidence from. It's clear that the other party didn't make any promises to you!"
"I don't understand what Yang Kui-san is talking about."
"Jiuhua-san, stop pretending. I know you must be crying secretly in your heart. It's so pitiful~"
"Isn't this something only Yang Kui-san would do?"
Fire. Full of gunpowder!
Rinka Hiiragi didn't know what happened. She just wanted to invite the two of them to go to the temple fair together, but why did they suddenly start quarreling?
They continued to argue, and Hiiragi Rinka didn't dare to try to stop them.
Just at this moment, Matsumae Shinchun, who was chatting and laughing with other classmates, walked out of the music classroom.
Hiiragi Rinka seemed to have seen hope and a savior.
She ran over quickly.
"He, Hen-Hen-Haru-chan!"
"what happened?"
When Matsumae Shinchun saw Rinka coming over in a hurry, she politely said goodbye to the other classmates before replying to her.
Hiiragi Rinka pointed at the two people who were still quarreling behind her and said anxiously: "Kokoharu-chan, please persuade Yue and Chitose! They are quarreling for some unknown reason."
"quarrel."
Matsumae Shinharu glanced at the two of them.
Okay
There was no fight.
"I gonna go see."
Jiuhuayue closed her eyes and said, "I don't want to say anything more. Yang Kui, you are a stubborn person who doesn't want to believe the established facts."
"What do you mean I don't want to believe the facts? It's obviously you who don't want to believe the facts! In the final analysis, it's because no one loves you! That's why you have so many delusions!"
No one loves
Jiu Huayue's tone turned cold: "Aren't you a guy who has been abandoned since childhood!"
"Humph, things are different now!"
Yang Kui Chitose would not get angry because of this sentence now.
She has a brother named Tree!
