Crossover Anime Daily Life: Their Eyes Are a Little Strange

Page 184

"Shiki-kun, is there anything else I can help you with?"

The child currently has virtually no guard against Shirakawa-shiki.

Xiangzi let out a "heh-hoo" and sat down in the chair as well.

"That's all for now, Gabriel."

"If it weren't for Gabriel and Shoko, I would have had a hard time by myself."

Upon hearing the praise, Gabriel touched the back of her head with her little hand.

Somewhat embarrassed, she said, "Hehe, it's nothing serious."

"No, it's all thanks to Gabriel."

"Hmm... I see. I'll accept your kind praise, Shiki-kun."

Chapter 159 Kitagawa, Yukinoshita, and Yui's New Clothes

That night, the sky gradually darkened.

After a short rest, Shirakawa came out of the room.

Meanwhile, Gabriel's Shoko was fiddling with something in the study.

Between the girl's movements, soft, fragmented sounds could be heard.

Without disturbing them, Shirakawa looked in the direction of the clock.

Realizing it was almost time, and wanting to blend in with the local customs, I changed into a simple yukata and quickly went out.

Along the way, there were also some people wearing yukatas, chatting and laughing.

The sound of the wooden clogs stomping on the ground was crisp and rhythmic.

Their words and expressions, more or less, were filled with joy and anticipation.

After all, this summer festival is one of the few times every year that people would choose not to miss.

When Shirakawa arrived at the fireworks festival and told the three girls where to meet up,

Three girls in yukatas had been waiting for a long time on the stone arch bridge in the distance.

"Yukinoshita, Umimu, Dango, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Upon hearing this, the three girls standing on the bridge attracted the attention of many men, their beauty captivating all who saw them.

Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw Shirakawa Shiki wearing a yukata, and their bright eyes lit up.

Shirakawa was wearing a dark blue traditional Japanese yukata at this moment.

His simple yet refreshing attire made his flawless 29-year-old face even more handsome.

The combination of the two, along with the ongoing summer fireworks festival, creates a clean and bright visual effect.

After the three girls realized what was happening, their fair cheeks flushed in unison, and they all greeted each other.

"Little Shi, ya ha yo!"

"It can't be said that we haven't seen each other for a long time, Shirakawa-kun."

"Shiki-kun, you look handsome today too."

Three different ways of greeting made Shirakawa chuckle in disbelief.

But his gaze was quickly drawn to the three girls' yukatas.

Yukino Yukinoshita was dressed in a purple yukata adorned with some patterns, which complemented her cool and aloof appearance and added a touch of allure.

Yui Yuigahama was dressed in bright red, adorned with pink floral arrangements and a yukata decorated with star patterns, which complemented her perfectly.

Kitagawa Kaimu was dressed in all black, adorned with white lines, which added a touch of cool-toned beauty to this lovely girl.

At this moment, the three girls, each with their own distinct style, had all tied up their beautiful hair.

Naturally, they all revealed their slender, snow-white necks, with a few strands of black hair hanging down their foreheads.

The three beautiful girls' outfits, as far as the eye could see, exuded a captivating and alluring charm.

This made Shirakawa secretly admire him.

But his gaze was undisguisedly intense.

Immediately, the three girls turned their heads away shyly.

Yukinoshita blushed slightly and gave a soft hum: "I said... Shirakawa-kun, don't stare at us so recklessly."

"I'm still not used to this kind of outfit... I'm not used to this kind of outfit."

"Wouldn't that seem a bit strange...?"

After that near-intimate encounter, she simply couldn't bring herself to be sarcastic towards this guy now.

Moreover, there was also a sense of shame that was hard to put into words.

To Shirakawa, the soft hum sounded more like a kitten meowing, carrying a touch of cute coquetry.

This made him shudder and glance at Yukinoshita with slight surprise.

The ground beneath the snow has definitely thawed a little...

No, not just a little, but a lot.

Even though that's what he thought, a slight smile appeared on Shirakawa's lips.

He casually remarked, "If you guys are so humble, how are the other girls supposed to live? Don't underestimate yourselves."

"As for being strange? Of course not. I was just thinking that all three of you look great in yukatas."

"That's great! I can't find any words to describe it right now."

"Idiot, what are you talking about? I'm just wearing what's customary for the summer festival."

"Small style!!"

"Hehe, it's alright. Shiki-kun looks very handsome today too."

The three girls were more or less familiar with each other's personalities.

She only had a slightly flushed cheek, and she gave him a disgruntled look.

As Shirakawa approached, three faint, distinct fragrances of young girls wafted over: "Is that so? But from my own perspective..."

"Today, Yukinoshita, Dango, and Umi are all very beautiful."

Upon hearing this, Yukino lowered her head somewhat awkwardly, secretly grumbling to herself.

What does this mean? You idiot!

Is it a compliment to her, or to Kitagawa and Yuihama?

After what happened that day, she couldn't sleep well at night.

Every night when I lie in bed and instantly clear my mind.

But this guy's face always... always appears in my mind.

That's absolutely despicable!

Kitagawa and Yuihama didn't think too much about it, they just smiled happily.

I felt secretly pleased that the time I spent today choosing the best-looking and most suitable yukata for myself was well spent.

Shirakawa walked to the three girls' side, a faint smile on his face: "Shall we go then?"

"To be honest, I've never been to a fireworks festival before."

Yuihama and Kitagawa were somewhat surprised: "Eh? Shiki-kun (Shiki-chan) has never participated before?"

"Fireworks festival, there are several of these every year."

Under the snow, her expression remained calm and serene, but her small ears quietly perked up.

Shirakawa's gaze swept over the three girls, and seeing their different expressions, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up.

"I've been here before with my sister and played with other pretty girls, but this is definitely my first time."

"Fireworks festivals are often something that couples do together."

I never expected the other party to say that so suddenly.

The three girls let out a soft exclamation, and, slightly embarrassed, playfully threw him a mothball.

Yukinoshita couldn't help but keep a cold expression on her face and said in a feigned indifference, "Shirakawa-kun, do you really enjoy stirring up the pride of three young girls like this?"

Ever since I realized that I had some feelings for the other person.

She couldn't feel cold at all when facing this guy now.

However, every time this guy acted this way, she felt that he was deliberately trying to annoy her.

This discovery made Yukinoshita feel unconsciously deflated.

She couldn't help but wonder if this guy was deliberately acting this way to keep her more in his sights.
