Because both Mu Fan and Ashina happened to come to the beach, the two of them chatted for a while, then simply sat next to each other on the beach, admiring the sea under the night sky together.
The sea at night was not so turbulent, and its sparkling appearance was full of warmth and peace.
Suddenly, Ashina seemed to have thought of something. She took out her phone and looked at the time, then let out a cry of surprise.
"What's wrong?"
Mu Fan was startled by Ashina's sudden cry. He hurriedly looked at Ashina and asked in confusion, "Did you forget something?"
Ashina Tsukuyomi nodded seriously, then pointed at Mu Fan and said, "Mu Fan, do you know what festival it is today?"
Mu Fan stared at Ashina with a strange expression and asked, "Ashina, I haven't heard of any festivals in April other than Tomb-Sweeping Day. What festival is it today?"
Ashina opened the forum, pointed at the ponytail post, and said seriously, "Mu Fan, today is the Single Ponytail Festival. During the Single Ponytail Festival, as long as you wear a single ponytail and hang a wish on a tree, your wish will be fulfilled next year."
"Where did you hear this gossip from? Do you dare to believe the news on the Internet?"
Mu Fan couldn't help but ridicule.
Staring at the posts, he was surprised to find that many of the posts were about making wishes.
Water Three Thousand: "I hope I can find a boyfriend next year!"
Mu Fan scrolled down and found that it was a message from a crossdresser.
Doughnut: "I hope my two-dimensional wife won't be a paper person next year!"
Don't worry, whether it's next year, the year after that, or the year after that, your wife will always be a paper person!
High Ponytail: "I hope I can buy a dress like this next year."
As she said that, the netizen put a picture of a long green dress in the post, along with a picture of herself.
Wake up, clothes also depend on who wears them. Before you wear them, you should lose some weight. Otherwise, the clothes will be torn apart by you!
Mu Fan glanced at the netizens' posts and said helplessly, "Ashina, this ponytail doesn't seem that reliable …"
"I'd rather believe it!"
Ashina didn't mind. She untied her hair band and handed it to Mu Fan.
Mu Fan raised his eyebrows and walked behind Ashina. He asked in surprise, "You want me to tie your hair into two ponytails for you?"
"Well, I asked you to help me break it in two!"
Ashina waved her hand and smiled. "Then you can tie it into a ponytail for me!"
"You want to turn into a double ponytail?"
Mu Fan held the red hair band that Ashina had prepared for him. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he said, "I don't think a double ponytail can increase the buff effect of a single ponytail."
"It's okay. Help me disconnect it first! Then leave it to me. "
"Okay."
Mu Fan had to align the two ropes to make sure they were of the same length. Then, he grabbed both ends and pulled hard.
"Kacha —" The red rope broke.
"Here, it's done."
Mu Fan handed the two red ropes to Ashina. Although it was difficult for ordinary people to pull it in two, Mu Fan was very strong. It didn't take much effort to pull the red rope in two.
"Thank you."
After receiving the two red ropes of the same length, Ashina smiled happily. Then, she walked behind Mu Fan and smiled. "Don't move. Leave the rest to me."
"Huh?"
Seeing the red rope in Ashina's hand, Mu Fan's mouth twitched. He hurriedly asked, "Ashina, you're not thinking of tying me into a single ponytail, are you?"
Ashina seemed to have seen through Mu Fan's concern. She smiled slightly. "Don't worry. It's not a single ponytail for girls. In this era, there are many artistic youths with single ponytails, right?"
She thought about the hairstyles of many artistic youths. This kind of low ponytail was more handsome. Mu Fan was now a famous author in Dengeki Bunko, so it wasn't a bad idea to keep this hairstyle and accompany Ming Ri Nai to make her wish.
Seeing that Mu Fan didn't refuse, Ashina happily knelt behind Mu Fan. Fortunately, Mu Fan's hair wasn't very short. She used her hand to grab the hair near his neck, leaving an extreme ponytail. Then, she used a thin rope to tie it into a single ponytail.
"Done!"
Hearing Ashina's voice, Mu Fan took out his phone camera and looked at it. Currently, his phone in 2026 could still take pictures clearly even in the dark. Because his hair was relatively short, there was only a small ponytail at the back of his hair. Together with the hairstyle that Ashina combed in front of him, it gave him a deja vu of the Black Deacon character.
En, overall, he looked brand new and much more handsome.
If it wasn't because Mu Fan liked refreshing short hair the most, he would have kept it.
"Mu Fan, help me tie it up too!"
At this time, Ashina, who was sitting on the beach, waved at Mu Fan. Mu Fan immediately went over and lifted Ashina's hair with one hand.
He didn't know what kind of shampoo Asuna used on her hair, but it was very smooth, fine, and soft. There wasn't even a single split in her hair. With her appearance and hair quality, she would probably be able to earn a few hundred thousand yen in a shampoo commercial.
Because Ashina spread out her hair, Mu Fan gently combed the thick bangs in front of Ashina's forehead. The two strands of hair on both sides of the bangs fell on her shoulders.
Mu Fan used a thin rope to tie the hair at the back into a bow. When he put down Ashina's hair, the long ponytail fell directly to her waist.
"Wow, so beautiful!"
Ashina took it and asked happily, "I didn't expect Mu Fan to tie such a beautiful single ponytail. Who did you learn from?"
Mu Fan smiled faintly. "This is also because your hair and you are very beautiful. I just combed your hair according to the single ponytail hairstyle in anime. After all, a single ponytail needs to be beautiful to wear."
When she heard Mu Fan praise her beauty, Ashina immediately beamed with joy. Her two eyes curved into two crescent moons. She grabbed Mu Fan's hand and went to the cherry tree planted on the street at the end of the beach. She smiled and said, "Mu Fan, I'll wait for you here. The shop opposite is not closed yet. Go and buy paper and pen. We can write down our wishes and hang them. It's said that they are very useful."
Mu Fan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Ashina, aren't you going?"
Ashina Tsukuyomi rolled her eyes at Mu Fan. "It's not good to go to someone's shop in a swimsuit at night."
"En, then Ashina, wait for me here."
Mu Fan also felt that Ashina's words made sense. In this era, it was normal for students to walk on the beach in a swimsuit during the day. However, it was a little strange to go to someone's shop in a swimsuit at night.
Mu Fan pushed open the door. The shop's salesperson was a young girl. When she saw Mu Fan's new hairstyle, she couldn't help but brighten up. She smiled and said, "Sir, you are really handsome. Looking at you, are you a high school student who came here to take a break from school?"
It was the first time he was praised for being handsome, and it was by a girl. Although there was no lack of people who deliberately came to praise and promote their products so that they would be embarrassed to leave, Mu Fan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He could only nod and say, "En, yes. We are third-year high school students who came here to study and travel. How did you know?"
The salesperson looked like a cheerful and friendly girl. She recalled and said, "Ah, last year, there was also a group of people who came here to study and travel. One of them was especially beautiful. Her school uniform seemed to be from your school. Yes, I remember now. She had long straight black hair and a white hair band. The most eye-catching thing was her legs that were covered in black stockings. Many male customers couldn't walk when they saw her in the shop."
As she said that, the salesperson sighed. "I'm really envious of her figure."
"It should be a senior, right?"
Listening to the salesperson's general description, last year in the third year of Toyonosaki Gakuen, the only beautiful girl with the best figure was his senior, Kashinoku Shiyu.
At this time, Mu Fan suddenly remembered that Ashina was still waiting outside. He hurriedly asked the salesperson, "Can I trouble you to give me a notebook and a pen?"
"Eh?"
Hearing Mu Fan's inquiry, the female salesperson walked towards Mu Fan. She blinked and asked, "Sir, are you here to make a wish on the single ponytail festival today?"
"Yes, how did you know?" Mu Fan looked at the salesperson in shock and asked.
"Sir, you have a single ponytail. Of course, I know!"
The salesperson smiled slightly. "Today, many people come to the store with a single ponytail to buy things and make a wish. Our store has a special note for making wishes and a pull ring hanging on a tree!"
As she said that, the salesperson brought Mu Fan into the store. She pointed to a note with an iron ring hanging on a tree in the store and smiled. "This card has a plastic jacket outside. That is to say, when you write a wish, you can take the card out and write your wish. Then, you can put it in the plastic jacket. Then, you can fix the iron ring on the plastic jacket to the branch. Even if it is exposed to the wind and sun for a year, the writing on it will not disappear."
"There is actually such an excellent design."
When Mu Fan thought of how much Ashina valued the single ponytail festival, he didn't care about the price. He said directly, "Give me two!"
The salesperson smiled and said, "Two thousand yen for one. But because today is the last day of the single ponytail festival, the next time someone buys it will be Christmas. I will give you a 50% discount for two. I'll give you one thousand yen."
"Thank you."
Mu Fan thanked her, took the things he bought, and walked across the street. He saw Ashina leaning against the cherry tree, staring at the bright moon on the sea in the distance.
Mu Fan smiled and walked over. Ashina heard the sound and turned around. Seeing the pen and wish note in Mu Fan's hand, she smiled with satisfaction.
Mu Fan handed the wish note and pen to Ashina. "Ashina, write your wish on this. I will help you hang it."
Ashina took it happily. "Okay, you write it when I'm done."
"Okay."
.....
Seeing that Ashina had finished writing, Mu Fan took the pen and wrote his wish.
"Here."
Mu Fan took Ashina's wish note and couldn't help but sneak a look. He found that there was only a short sentence on it. When he saw the words clearly, Mu Fan couldn't help but be stunned. Then, his heart was filled with emotion.
"I hope that on this day next year, I can come here with Mu Fan and make a wish again."
