I just want to live in peace, I refuse to fall in love

Chapter 68 From Nanakuma Line to Tenjin District
Early the next morning, the brother and sister arrived at the subway station after breakfast.

Sitting on the bench in the rest area, Shirakawa Kazuya glanced at the screen of his mobile phone. It was now [-]:[-].

"What time are we taking the bus?"

Xiangzi was wearing a floral dress today, with a goose-yellow cardigan on top, and two ponytails tied with black rubber bands on the back of her head, swaying in the air, looking very cute.

"There should be a bus here every fifteen to two or ten minutes. We'll leave when everyone is here. We'll leave before about eight o'clock."

Shirakawa Kazuya knows that it is normal for someone to be late for every group activity.

Sure enough, when Chihaya Tsukichi arrived at 29:[-], she saw that one of the people sitting on the chair was missing Kinoshita Haruki.

"There's one person missing." She didn't sit down, as if she disliked everyone being crowded together.

Ando Megumi glanced at the phone, "Kinoshita-san said he will be there soon."

"It's really troublesome." Tsukichi Chihaya curled her lips and took out her mobile phone.

But luckily, when Kinoshita Haruki came over at 35:[-], the subway had not arrived yet.

"Sorry, sorry. I felt a little sleepy when I got up in the morning. I took the bus one extra stop and ran all the way here."

There was a little more blush on Kinoshita Maki's face, probably because she was running in the cool breeze in the morning.

"It's okay. Anyway, there are no subways coming during this period, so it won't delay things." Megumi Ando patted him on the shoulder.

The subway appeared just in time and stopped in front of them with the sound of wheels and rails rubbing against each other.

"Let's go to the Tenjin District!" Kawakami Masamune shouted in a nonchalant manner.

Today is Sunday, and the morning rush hour of the first wave of work has passed, so there is plenty of space left inside. Everyone is sitting in a row, with a fist's distance apart, and several people's faces can be reflected on the glass opposite. reflection.

They got on the train from Kamo Station and had to go through more than a dozen stops including Nogo, Umerin, and Fukudai-mae to Tenjin Minami Station. The whole journey took about an hour.

"Yawn." Nagata Chinatsu opened her mouth slightly and let out a cute yawn.

Xiangzi sat on her left, "Sister Chinatsu, didn't you sleep last night?"

"It's okay. After all, it's the first day of operation. My mother stayed in the store until late and came back. I just waited for a while."

Nagata Chinatsu used her white and slender fingers to wipe the tear that overflowed from the corner of her eye due to yawning.

Most likely I was waiting while playing games.Shirakawa Kazuya sat on the left hand side of Xiangzi. Hearing what Nagata Chinatsu said, he immediately thought of the reason.But since Kawakami Masamune and the others were also there, they did not say this.

Chihaya Tsukiike is sitting on the left side of Shirakawa Kazuya, that is, at the very edge.She was no different from usual, continuing to stare at the screen of her phone, swiping up with her thumb from time to time.

On the other side of the room, Masamune Kawakami was whispering to Megumi Ando about a comic he read last night, and Megumi Ando responded with a snicker.

Kinoshita Haruki must have been a little tired from running all the way, and now she was slowly falling asleep.

The car was very quiet. Shirakawa Kazuya looked through the opposite glass and watched the billboards outside quickly regressing. Before he had time to see only one name, it had already disappeared.

Pinching his eyebrows, Shirakawa Kazuya slowly closed his eyes, and in his ears was the sound of Xiangzi and Nagata Chinatsu talking in a low voice, almost a whisper.

"The next stop is Ropponmatsu Station, Ropponmatsu Station." A female electronic synthesized voice sounded from the radio.

Shirakawa Kazuya opened his eyes and looked at Tsukichi Chihaya aside, "Which company are we going to hang out with today?"

"DHK is a company that manufactures home appliances. It is considered to be a mid-level company in the Kyushu region." Chihaya Tsukiike answered without raising her head.

"It is said that there are many universities that participate in the parade every year?" "Yes, Kyushu University and others will also be there. Do you want to consider studying there in the future?"

"No, I still want to go to Tokyo."

"Is it Dongdae?"

"Yes, it is said that Tokyo is very hot. I will start exercising from now on and try to adapt in advance so as not to collapse on the street due to heat stroke."

"It's not that exaggerated. According to you, the number of people in Tokyo will be reduced by at least half."

"How about selling short-sleeved shirts over there?"

"Someone is already doing it."

"It seems there is no shortage of smart people in this world."

"Don't underestimate this world. This is the greatest life experience I have gained in the past 16 years."

Tsukiike Chihaya chatted with Shirakawa Kazuya word by word, but her eyes never left the phone screen.

The female electronic synthesizer sounded again, "Next stop, Watanabe Street, Watanabe Street."

"Almost there." Shirakawa Kazuya looked at the route map above the door. The next stop was Tenjin South Station.

"Ah, are we almost there? What are we going to do when we get there?"

Xiangzi was a little nervous. This was her first time coming to such a far place, and her palms were slightly sweaty.

"Don't be nervous, Xiangzi. Our destination is Hakata. After getting off at Tenjin Minami, we have to take the train." Shirakawa Kazuya touched her head to relax her tense body.

"Oh, I forgot." Xiangzi's face was a little red, worried that Yuechi Chihaya would laugh at her for not having seen the world.

But Tsukichi Chihaya obviously didn't care about this at all, and just asked in a casual tone, "It's okay to go shopping first after getting off the car."

"Eh?" Shirakawa Kazuya was a little confused.

"This is the first time for Xiangzi to come here. As a brother, I should take her around. Tenjin District is known as the most bustling city in Kyushu. There are many lively and fun places." Chihaya Tsukiike glanced at him.

Shirakawa Kazuya didn’t know much about Tenjin, but after hearing what Tsukiike Chihaya said, he also felt that he should take Xiangzi to play, but he was a little worried about the schedule, so he asked, "Will this delay our arrival in Hakata?" Arrangement? We can go shopping when we come back."

"It won't have much impact. We have to take the suspended tram to Hakata. There are many shops on the way to the station. Just go shopping all the way and play while walking. Do you think I haven't considered this?" Tsukichi Chihaya arranged The plan is always sound.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Bai Chuanhe has never been here before and chose to listen to the experience of those who have been there.

"But what you said makes sense. After you finish playing in Hakata, you can spend more time here. You can just take the evening bus back." Chihaya Tsukiike glanced at Kouko and said to Shirakawa Kazuya.

"Okay, sir." Shirakawa Kazuya replied with a smile, knowing that she was thinking about Xiangzi.

"Don't just come up with new names randomly, otherwise I have a reasonable doubt that you will be able to publish a book "One Hundred Names of Tsukichi Chihaya" in your later years."

"That kind of thing, if you want, I can finish it now. Like two thousand yen."

"It's better not to, it's a bit disgusting, Shirakawa-san." Chihaya Tsukiike interrupted him.

The radio sounded again, announcing the arrival of the destination.

"Tianjin South Station, we're here."
