The next second, the whale shark broke through the window! Opening its mouth wide to attack people — such a thing did not happen.
This type of big shark was actually a filter feeder, feeding on plankton, algae, krill, small squid, and so on. It was not like the great white shark that people imagined, so even if it broke through the window, it would not attack people … Wait, something was wrong?
Seiji thought for a moment before realizing his thinking was off track, and he complained to himself.
Just then, he felt his hand being hugged.
He turned around and saw Mika leaning close to him, her eyes watery and her face charming.
"Back then … thank you for saving me," the girl said softly.
Seiji recalled the scene, and his heart raced. He looked at her face, at her lips …
When he came back to his senses, he was already kissing her.
Mika responded passionately, just like back then.
Some tourists nearby noticed this passionate scene. Some blushed and looked away, while others looked at their partners.
"Dad, someone's kissing!" a boy shouted.
"Shh! Don't be noisy! Don't look! "his father stopped him." Look at that big shark. "
Although he wanted to kiss for a while longer, he couldn't be an extra exhibit here, so the two quickly separated.
Mika stuck close to Seiji. Although she was shy, she also felt happy, and her face was flushed.
And what made her happiness rise to the peak was his soft confession.
"I like you, Mika."
…
The two continued to tour the aquarium, and at noon, they had lunch at the aquarium's restaurant.
Watching the aquarium while eating was a good experience, but there were too many people, so they could not sit by the display window.
They continued to tour, and when they arrived at the penguin aquarium, the pigtailed girl's eyes lit up when she saw the cute swaying creatures.
Although the "Blue Charm Sea" was very beautiful, in terms of cuteness, there was probably no other creature in the aquarium that could beat penguins. They had always been popular among girls and children, and had always been popular.
These naturally cute black and white creatures reminded Seiji of the giant panda. In the industry that relied on cute to survive, there was no creature in the world that could beat the latter.
Seeing how Mika liked penguins so much, it might be a good idea to watch the giant panda next time.
Seiji looked at his girlfriend with a gentle gaze. Suddenly, he noticed a familiar figure.
Miyabi Ishihara!
The librarian and light novel author stood in a corner and quietly observed the penguins.
She didn't have any companions with her. It seemed that she had come alone.
A female author visiting an aquarium by herself … she gave off the vibe of a literary girl.
Should I say hello? Seiji hesitated.
At this moment, Miyabi noticed his gaze and turned around to meet his gaze.
Seeing Harano Seigo and the beautiful twintailed girl next to him, she blinked and then slightly widened her eyes.
Suddenly, there was a thud. A child fell down beside Seiji.
Seiji subconsciously looked over and saw the young mother helping her child up and comforting him gently.
Seiji then looked across the street and saw Miyabi walking in his direction.
"Hello, Ishihara-senpai," Seiji greeted her when she walked up to him.
"Hello, Harano -san." Miyabi greeted him and glanced at Mika. "… Are you two on a date?"
"No," Mika replied. "I'm here with Seigo as a friend."
Miyabi looked at her.
"Hello, nice to meet you, Ishihara-senpai. My name is Mika Uehara. I've heard Seigo mention you before, "Mika said politely.
"Hello … Uehara -san." Miyabi glanced at Miyabi.
"Harano -san, does your girlfriend not mind that you and Uehara -san came out to have fun together?" She then looked at Seiji Mukai.
"This …"
"Of course not." Before Seiji could say anything, Mika answered again. "President Wanhua knows about this."
Miyabi was rendered speechless.
Seiji felt as if he was being scrutinized by Miyabi's silent stare.
"Ishihara-senpai, did you come here by yourself?" Seiji asked as naturally as he could.
Miyabi nodded slightly.
"Would you like to take a walk with us?"
Miyabi shook her head slightly.
"I came here in search of inspiration …" she spoke lightly. "I've already found it."
The last part of her sentence seemed to have a deeper meaning to it.
"That's … nice." Seiji's mouth twitched.
"Have fun, Harano -san … and your 'friend.'" Miyabi glanced at the two of them again and emphasized the word "friend" before turning around and leaving.
"I'm sorry, Mika."
Seiji apologized to Mika after he watched Miyabi Ishihara leave.
"There's no need. This is something that we already agreed on." Mika smiled.
Seiji told the public that Summer Night was his girlfriend, and that Mika and Chiaki were his "good friends." This was already agreed upon. As for whether or not people would believe it, or what they would think, that was none of his concern.
Compared to other people's opinions of him, Seiji cared more about his girlfriends' feelings. But, he could only apologize like this.
'I'm such a terrible person.' Seiji thought to himself.
At the end of their visit, the two of them went to watch a dolphin show and bought a whale shark doll as a souvenir.
After leaving the aquarium, they took the streetcar back to the train station and leisurely strolled home.
When they passed by the park, Mika said that she wanted to sit here for a while. So, they went inside together and found a bench to sit on.
They leaned against each other and held hands as they quietly enjoyed this moment.
Mika wanted to say something else, but she felt that there was no need to say anything.
She leaned closer to him and felt his presence. Her mouth arced upwards as she slowly closed her eyes.
Seiji looked at her for a long while before he closed his eyes as well.
Time passed silently. A light breeze blew by, bringing with it a few fallen leaves that danced in the air.
One of the leaves touched her face, causing her to open her eyes and see his sleeping face.
"I like you, Seiji," she said in a gentle voice.
…
"What's the ending of this artsy movie?"
Chiaki made a comment after learning that Seiji and Mika actually sat in the park for an hour without doing anything else after leaving the aquarium.
Seiji responded with a smile.
Perhaps it was a little artsy. Although they only sat there quietly and rested for a while, both he and Mika felt great. That was enough for him.
After their fun date, the next event was the Bloodwine Ritual tournament.
Later that night, he received a message from Hana.
All seven major Yin Yang Master families would be participating in this tournament!
Although they were all relatively mediocre or even low-level disciples, making it seem like they were sent here to make up the numbers for the sake of the host, they were still from top-level factions, so they probably wouldn't be too weak.
Apart from the seven major Yin Yang Master families, the samurai "three major families", the ninja "two major sects", and the Himiki tribe also had people participating. The tournament participants from these factions could be classified as the first type.
The tournament participants from lower-level factions were classified as the second type. This type had the most people.
The tournament participants outside of the first and second types were classified as the third type. This type was in the middle.
The first type of tournament participants only had basic information or no information at all. The second type of tournament participants had complete information and were relatively clear. The third type of tournament participants had the most detailed information, even down to their personal experiences and combat habits!
The more powerful a faction was, the more capable they would be at investigating and keeping secrets. A Spiritual Ability user from a weak faction was basically invisible in front of a powerful faction.
