"Absolutely shocking." Ryuji whistled.
"Is my impression on your heart that bad? It's only natural to give a little advice to the younger generation," Mai snorted softly.
"Yeah, after all, Mai is kind, I already know that," Ryuji said with a smile.
He looked at the time, there was still about half an hour before the fireworks display ended, and he was about to rush back to meet other people.
"I don't know if I have a chance to invite Mai to participate in the fireworks display?" Ryuji extended his hand towards Mai.
Mai snorted softly, "If it was just me, I might be happier."
Ryuji touched his nose, but didn't say anything.
"Let's go, it's time to go back now."
Luckily, Mai didn't make things difficult on purpose.
This is also one of the things Ryuji likes about her, even though she can be a bit short-tempered at times, but more often than not she has the traits of an adult.
"Let's go."
Mai and Ryuji were standing side by side, but not holding hands.
Like a child who was angry, she had to make the other party lower her head first.
Ryuuji and Mai returned to Itsuki.
During this period, telephone communications were restored and Nino was contacted. The five sisters are here except for Ichika.
Mai raised her eyebrows when she saw Itsuki and the others.
As expected of quintuplets, standing together with four identical faces was awe-inspiring.
Nino was surprised when she saw Mai.
This high school student idol who recently made a comeback has been on the front pages of several magazines in a row, how could she not know her.
The other three also know Mai, so there's no need to introduce too much.
"Where's Ichika?" Miku asked.
"She left for something, sorry I can't bring her back."
Miku smiled: "It's okay, if Ryuji lets go of Ichika, she will definitely leave with a smile."
Even though her words were somewhat ambiguous, they were true.
...
Ichika changed into her yukata, put on her casual clothes and headed to the audition site.
The other auditionees were almost done auditioning, and she was the only one left.
Ichika took a deep breath, a sentence she had memorized many times in her mind.
She remembered what Sakurajima Mai had said before she left… Emotional expression.
For a moment, she seemed to be in the class she had graduated from, the diploma she had just received in her hand.
The sunset light fell, and the entire classroom was covered with golden curtains.
In the class other than Ichika and the teacher, at first she looked down on the teacher's appearance, but with her hard work, that person's face gradually appeared.
"Congratulations on your graduation."
What, it was clearly not like that at all, that person's voice wasn't that gentle...
Ichika seemed a little lost in this softness.
"Sensei, the first time I met you in this class, I thought... It's great that you can be my Sensei..."
...
At the fireworks show, Mai and Nino join a growing team.
There is only the roof of the shop that Nino ordered, and everyone can gather to enjoy the fireworks.
"Does Kanna-chan want to eat dorayaki?"
Mai seems very good at persuading children, of course Kanna may be too easily persuaded.
"Want to eat!"
"Kanna-chan eats my takoyaki too!" Yotsuba also bent over to eat.
Kanna never refused anyone who came, and everyone could pinch her plump little face after eating.
"Kids can't eat too much!" Itsuki defended Kanna's health.
If it was an ordinary child, maybe it would be true, but it was a young dragon.
"Hate!"
Itsuki was immediately branded as a villain by Kanna.
"Eh?!" Itsuki fell to the ground after being hit, how could she be hated even if she was fine.
*🎇🎇🎇*
Huge fireworks pierced the sky, and the dark night sky was painted with colors, attracting everyone's attention.
Mai approached Ryuji, because the sound of the fireworks was too loud, so they could only gather to play.
"Kanna-chan, and Quetzalcoatl-san, won't you explain her to me?"
Sure enough, Mai couldn't let go.
Forget Kanna, she's still a child.
But what about Quetzalcoatl! Her breasts are huge!
Ryuji delivered his prepared speech, "Kanna is the child of Tohru's relative, and she was temporarily raised in our house. Quetzalcoatl is Tohru's friend, and she didn't have any other friends when she came here alone, so she came here to join her."
"Tohru is just your maid… Maid, agree to let her bring others home, you are truly relaxed enough to be the head of the household."
