Chapter 711: Catching Goldfish

When the two of them returned to Tokyo that night, it was already past 10 o'clock in the evening, and they were not in a hurry to eat, but took Taeyeon to the traditional temple fair venue.

In Japan, temple fairs are called summer festivals, and after June, July, and August, a variety of festivals are held all over the country.

As a result, the smell of festivals permeates the whole of Tokyo, and the most lively season is when girls usually walk around the night market wearing kimonos and shaking fans.

Most of the stalls in the night market are simple and mobile shops, and many sellers choose to stand at the door and shout, enthusiastically selling in the hope of attracting more customers to come and consume.

"Oppa, will we be found out like this, don't even wear a hat to cover it!"

Taeyeon asked as she covered her mouth with one hand, hugging Kim Do-joon's arm tightly and snuggling up to him before she came out of the sea of lavender flowers in the evening.

As for Kim Do-joon, he gently put his hand on Taeyeon's waist, put his arm around her, and walked towards the night market.

The smile on her face can't be stopped, the smile at the corner of her eyes is more obvious, and today brings her not only a sea of purple flowers, but also full of confidence in herself, him, and the future.

"Why are you wearing a hat, since you are here at the temple fair, of course you have to follow the customs, I am ready!"

After Kim Do-joon finished speaking, he took out the mask that had been prepared from behind him, handed it to Taeyeon, and continued.

"If you wear this, no one else will find out!"

Kim Do-joon helped Taeyeon put on the fox mask that Kim so-young gave him in advance, and tidied it up a little, not too big or too small. It's quite appropriate.

Just like yourself. It's all fox masks. You can expose the mouth underneath and breathe fresh air freely, but it only covers most of the mouth above.

Masks at temple fairs are very common, almost one for everyone, so that they will not arouse the curiosity of others.

Taeyeon stuck out her tongue and looked at Kim Do-joon with some curiosity, who had just put on a mask. It was a little uncomfortable, and after a while, I slowly got used to it.

"How did you come up with it, or did you prepare it in advance before I came!"

Like a young couple, two people hold hands and go shopping, and it is difficult to have such an opportunity to stay together and enjoy the fun of dating.

It is precisely because there are not many people who receive attention in Japan that two people can fall in love freely without restraints. Just cover it up a little and you'll be fine.

Kim Do-joon pouted. While holding Taeyeon's little hand and walking forward, he sniffed his nose hard, the food in the night market is so tempting, and all kinds of flavors are intertwined, constantly attracting two people.

"Of course, I thought about it in advance, if I didn't inquire clearly, how could I date in less than 2 days, I have to go back tomorrow, and I have to have a good time today!"

Kim Do-joon said with some excitement, pulled up Taeyeon's mask, and gently scraped her nose, the little guy is not hungry, there are so many problems, they have all come to the temple fair, why don't you hurry up and eat something.

Compared to other festivals, many temple fairs in Tokyo are held at temples and shrines, because the area is larger and there is plenty of space for small vendors to put their belongings.

Food is an indispensable part of the temple fair, and you can find everything from octopus meatballs, dorayaki, yakisoba noodles, marshmallows, and more.

For the first time in front of Kim Do-joon, Taeyeon showed the nature of a little girl, coquettish and scary, not shy at all, and no one else would recognize it anyway.

Feeding octopus balls, eating ramen, one person grabbed a marshmallow, walked in the bazaar of the temple fair, and ate it in a big gulp, not caring about the image of the artist at all.

Some people say that artists like to wear masks, once they stand on the stage, they are not their true selves, whether they are singing or participating in variety shows, they always like to show their most perfect side.

But Kim Do-joon is different, he is more casual and doesn't care much about this aspect of things, others are artists, and they are desperately wearing masks to cover up the past.

And he is desperately trying to get rid of his disguise and show his true self, this world is like this, it is impossible for all people to like you, you are not a god, just an ordinary person.

Of course, this is just what he looks like in the entertainment industry, in business, he is still as low-key as ever, he neither likes to show it, nor does he want to be exposed by social media, he just wants to live his own life quietly.

Kim Do-joon knows that once the day comes to exposure, his life will be completely different from what it is now.

"Oppa, I can't eat it, what should I do?"

Taeyeon holds a lot of skewers in her hands, and there are many octopus balls alone, which are packed in paper bowls and put them in her mouth one by one with a fork.

He glanced at Kim Dojun with some distress, there are too many delicious things here, but his stomach does not allow him to stuff so many things, so these delicacies can only be tasted lightly, leaving his stomach to eat other things.

Kim Do-joon's mouth didn't stop for a moment, and he kept eating, and he was hungry for a long time, except for a little food on the road, and he has persevered until now.

"If you can't eat it, throw it away, anyway, there's still a lot of things you haven't eaten!"

Kim Do-joon bit the meat skewer in his hand and responded seriously, it was not convenient to eat with a mask, and even the speed had slowed down a lot.

As soon as she finished speaking, Taeyeon came up with an idea, picked up a fork, forked the octopus balls and sent them to Kim Do-joon's mouth.

didn't react, was taken advantage of by Taeyeon, anyway, it was just one, Kim Do-joon didn't care too much, opened his mouth, and swallowed it in one gulp.

But he guessed Taeyeon's true thoughts wrong.

“1、2、3、4、5!”

I stuffed five octopus balls in a row in one go, and I almost didn't let Kim Do-joon gasp, and his mouth was bulging, like a frog crowing, which looked really funny.

"Wife, I can't chew anymore, my cheeks hurt!"

Kim Do-joon handed Taeyeon everything in his hand and rubbed his cheeks. Chewing hard. After a while. I swallowed it reluctantly, there was too much food, there was something in my mouth, and I stuffed five small octopus balls, although it was called small balls, but it was not small at all, on the contrary, the size was quite large.

Taeyeon grinned, slightly raised. laughed embarrassedly, took the tissue paper, and helped Kim Do-jun wipe the corners of his mouth, which were all some sauce and stuck to his mouth.

Stalls are also a culture, and in Japan flourished during the Edo period, today's stalls also serve rice balls, soba noodles, tempura and other instant foods, satisfying the needs of Taeyeon and Dojun.

The two of them had a beautiful and full meal, and then they stopped and continued to forage for food, and they were too full.

Taeyeon touched Kim Do-joon's small belly. Said with a smile.

"Oppa, you're getting fat! It's time to work out! ”

". I'm just full! You don't know how much time I work out every day when I'm filming? ”

Kim Do-jun immediately retorted, he can say anything, but he doesn't despise his figure, in order to maintain the lines of his muscles and the symmetry of his body, he has always insisted on exercising, even if he is tired from filming, when he returns to the hotel at night, he will go to the gym for a while.

It's become one of his habits.

"Okay, okay, I know you're in good shape, huh! What's up ahead, so many! ”

Taeyeon suddenly noticed that there were many people gathered in front of him, some squatting, some standing, and it looked lively.

Curiosity was troubled, and he wanted to go over and take a look, so he turned his head and looked at Kim Dojun with an aggrieved face, and said.

"Can we go and have a look?"

"Of course, let's go! Let's go together! ”

Kim Do-jun took Taeyeon's little hand and walked over quickly, protecting Taeyeon and squeezing in to see that it was a traditional Japanese game - goldfish fishing.

Goldfish fishing is a very famous entertainment activity in Japan, which is generally a stall game at a temple fair, which was first introduced to Japan from the Tang Dynasty in China.

In general, for 100 yen, customers can get a paper net and bowl for catching goldfish, which they can then use to catch goldfish in the pond and put it in the net.

Although it seems simple, in fact, there are very few people who catch fish, because after the paper net enters the water, it is easy to break because of the weight of the fish, so there is no chance of such a chance, of course, this is also the fun of catching goldfish.

"Well, do you want to try it?"

Kim Do-joon smiled slightly, grabbed Taeyeon's waist from behind, slammed his chin on the back of her head, and spoke.

"Hmmm! It looks so interesting, I want to try it! ”

Taeyeon stuck out her tongue, licked her lips, rolled up her sleeves, and immediately opened her mouth to respond.

“OK! Let's have fun! Why don't we come to the competition, one person has ten chances, and see who catches more? ”

Kim Do-jun took advantage of the interest, and suddenly an idea came to his mind, and said with a smile.

"Race is competition, who is afraid of whom, but what if you lose to me? Isn't there a punishment? ”

Playing games,I've never been afraid.,And Sunny has always been the king of the game in the dormitory.,In the entire dormitory.,Only herself is her opponent.。

Taeyeon's face was full of confidence, and she didn't know that she had fallen into the trap designed by Kim Do-joon.

The two of them found a place to squat down, each finding a good position, to see where the large army of goldfish was.

A small pond surrounded by simple plastic is stocked with a lot of small goldfish, all colors, red, yellow, white, and black, which looks very cute.

Wagging his tail leisurely in the water, he didn't care about the things around him at all.

Everyone gathered around the stall to see who could succeed, but unfortunately, until now, no one has succeeded in catching a small goldfish.

Even if the little goldfish has been lying in the paper net, but in the part of the water, as long as the goldfish jumps, it will immediately shake, and no matter how strong the paper net is, it can not withstand this, and finally can only hear a "poof", and the goldfish swims back into the water again.

Customers are sad and will definitely continue to pay for it and keep trying, especially young men and women, who are dating together, will definitely not admit defeat and try more.

If they are not happy, the boss will be happy, and a steady stream of income will fly into their own pockets from other people's pockets.

Kim Do-joon took out the change from his pocket, handed it to the boss, and took 20 sheets of paper nets. Take a closer look. It's very crudely done. It's not delicate at all, and it feels like it will fall off if you touch it lightly.

It seems that this boss is also a shrewd person in business, and he will not suffer losses easily.

He divided 10 paper nets, handed them to Taeyeon, and said with a slight smile.

"There must be a punishment, and the reward is the same, it can't just pay without reward, right? If you lose later. You've got to make a request to me! ”

"Requirements? What are the requirements, let's hear about it first! ”

Taeyeon said as she spoke, but her eyes didn't look at Kim Do-joon, she just looked at the goldfish below to see where it was easier to start.

In the small pond, there are goldfish everywhere, and they are not small, pouting, bubbling, everything.

"When I went back in the evening. Soak in the hot springs with me! ”

Kim Do-joon deliberately said in a somewhat obscene manner, close to Taeyeon's ear. He whispered softly.

The little guy suddenly blushed and glared at him fiercely, fortunately he was wearing a mask, and others couldn't see it, otherwise he really didn't know how to respond, so he could only step on Jin Daojun's footsteps and respond lightly.

"Let's play first, then we'll talk about it!"

"Then I'll take you as a promise, let's pull the hook!"

Jin Daojun couldn't manage so much, and he thought he was a fool, and after the comparison, he said that the bet just now didn't count, and then he pulled the hook first, so he couldn't rely on it.

There is no way, so many people are watching at the scene, although they don't know what happened to the two of them, but at a glance, they know what they are betting!

Taeyeon could only reluctantly nod and make an appointment with Kim Do-joon.

The two of them were very close to each other, leaning close together, squatting on the ground at the same time, looking at the little goldfish in the water, no one took the lead in making a move, they were all observing carefully.

Fishing for goldfish is indeed a craft, and it is difficult for ordinary people to catch it at all, which is not only a combination of wrist skills, reflexes, and mathematical calculations, but also a combination of wisdom and endurance.

If a person is not qualitative, and his heart can't calm down, then let alone catching goldfish, even if it is fishing, there will be no grain.

This thing is to tell everyone three points, heart, heart, and heart.

When Taeyeon pursed her lips and tried the first little goldfish, she just stretched out and submerged in the water, facing a red goldfish, gently holding it from the bottom, just when she felt a little excited, the moment she put away the paper net, before she came out of the water, she saw that her fishing net had been broken.

The little guy left the fishing net freely, and seemed to give Taeyeon a discriminatory look, as if to say.

"Come on, come on, you have the ability to catch me!"

Kim Do-joon didn't do anything from beginning to end, he kept staring at Taeyeon's movements, instead of busy fishing for goldfish, it was better to carefully watch Taeyeon's goldfish fishing process, there were many important things that could be seen in it, Taeyeon didn't find it, but Kim Do-joon looked at them one by one.

Knowing himself and knowing that the other side can win all battles, Kim Do-jun still thinks about this very thoroughly.

Don't be in a hurry, first look at how others do it, understand the reason, the process, whether there is any difficulty, whether there is a better way, etc.

These are all things that need to be summed up.

"Ah...... How so! ”

Taeyeon suddenly let out a burst of dissatisfaction, muttering, a little dissatisfied, actually slipped out of his hand, it was really unpleasant.

Without saying a word, he took out the second paper net and continued to fish up the little goldfish.

Kim Do-joon didn't even look at it, it must have been a failure, and sure enough, Taeyeon's somewhat manic voice came from his ears.

Kim Dojun watched quietly, he didn't make a move at all, and now it's not his turn, so he has to calm down and see how others make it.

There were very few successes, but many failures, basically standing for a while, except for a little boy who succeeded in catching a goldfish for his sister, the others basically failed.

In less than 5 minutes, Taeyeon's ten paper nets were all used up, and the final result was zero, not to mention the goldfish, not even a single fish scale.

Taeyeon squatted on the ground, she was about to cry without tears, she lifted her mask and put it on her forehead a little uncomfortably, it was already late, everyone began to go back one after another, and there was no one around.

Only Kim Do-joon and Taeyeon remained, as well as couples squatting in the distance and whispering how to catch goldfish.

"What? Running out of everything? ”

Kim Do-jun was secretly happy in his heart, but the expression on his face was very natural, and he glanced at her. He immediately asked.

"Hmmm! I didn't catch a single one! ”

Taeyeon pouted. Moved around. Leaning against Kim Do-joon's side, he stretched out his fingers and poked him in the arm, as if he was a little unsatisfied.

"Why do you still want to play?"

Seeing this, Kim Do-joon immediately asked, the bet is a trivial matter, it was originally brought out by Taeyeon to relax, and being happy is the most important thing. Looking at Taeyeon just now, I already feel that she has left all her worries behind and has a lot of fun.

"No need, let's watch you play first! I've already made a bet, I don't want to be a dishonest person! ”

After speaking, he glanced at Kim Do-jun meaningfully, and said Keep promises, Do-jun is still doing quite well, whether it is writing songs or helping, as long as he can do it. Will definitely try to do my best.

But why do they all help others, not for themselves? This made her feel a little helpless.

"Alright then, let's see your husband show off his talents!"

After Kim Dojun finished speaking, he rolled up his sleeves, looked at it for such a long time, and finally found some rules, and the authorities were obsessed with bystanders, and many people knew this truth, but they couldn't do it.

Because they think too little, first of all, this is a paper net, which determines that when choosing a goldfish, you must not find a big one.

A method like Taeyeon's doesn't work at all, it's all about finding the biggest and best looking ones to catch, how is it possible, these are all deliberately put in by the boss, so you can only choose the goldfish with a smaller head.

The second point is that the paper mesh is very thin, so the stressed area can not be spread out in the center of the paper net, but as far as possible around the circular paper net, that is, when fishing by hand, it should be noted that the center of gravity of the hand is not in the center of the paper net, but around the paper net.

As for the last point, and the most important, when the goldfish comes out of the water, it will definitely jump and jump at the first time, this is the habit of the fish, and there is no way to change it.

Therefore, when choosing a target again, try to choose fish that are dying quickly, or those that are not very energetic, because only in this way will they not jump around at will when they are picked up again, so that they can catch more goldfish.

Now that the theory is there, it's time to put it into practice.

Jin Daojun had a lot of confidence compared to just now, chose the target, gently stretched out the paper net, and slowly came to the position of the little goldfish swimming from underwater.

Biting his lip, his eyes narrowed, he held his breath, ready to use his fastest speed to scoop up the goldfish in front of him, he had been watching it for a long time, almost motionless and fixed there, looking lifeless at all.

Kim Do-joon doesn't want to get more than one, just one is enough, whoever makes Taeyeon have no one, the 1:0 result is already quite perfect.

Taeyeon also squatted next to Kim Do-joon, and like him, nervously watched the movements of Kim Do-joon's hands.

Just as Kim Do-joon was about to pick up the goldfish, Taeyeon accidentally touched him and hit his arm, tearing a big hole in the paper net from the goldfish's body.

Kim Do-jun suddenly had black lines on his forehead coming out.

Taeyeon nodded and apologized, and when she said that she was embarrassed and didn't mean it, Kim Do-joon realized.

"It turns out that you can still play such a play, I really underestimate her!"

If you really don't want him to win, it seems that both sides are full of desire to win the game, Kim Do-joon is like this, and Taeyeon is the same.

Stay away from Taeyeon a little bit, for fear that she will destroy it again, there are still nine left, so I have to catch one first, beat her arrogant arrogance, and let her know how powerful she is.

The second paper net, because of quality problems, was directly broken at the moment of fishing.

The third paper net failed.

The fourth paper net failed......

Until the end, Kim Do-jun found that his hands were about to tremble, easier said than done, this is not as simple as he imagined.

It's exactly the same as Taeyeon, not to mention catching goldfish, not even the chance to hang in mid-air, every time it comes out of the water, the goldfish is like crazy, jumping crazy.

The more this is the case, the more Kim Do-jun does not believe in evil and desperately tries to get him.

At the same time, five paper nets were stretched out, and the result was still the same.

The goldfish's fish bubble eyes, as if looking at a tease again, didn't care about Kim Do-jun at all, and when he finally went into the water, in fact, the result had already been indicated.

Kim Do-joon is still the same as Taeyeon, an unlucky boyfriend and girlfriend, twenty paper nets, and not a single goldfish.

After a slight pause, the goldfish slowly regained its vitality, and swam around the pond with its tail wagging its tail, as if to speak.

"Just like you, you still want to arrest me, save it!"

The more Kim Do-jun looked, the more angry he became, the more uncomfortable he became, and it was too much for even a little goldfish to dare to bully him.

Her face turned red, and Taeyeon was even more laughing while holding her stomach, almost falling to the ground, but fortunately Kim Do-jun put his arms around her waist, otherwise she would really laugh.

The little goldfish is belittling him, Taeyeon is laughing wildly, and even the boss is a little ridiculous.

At this time, Jin Daojun realized that he was not good at everything, at least in terms of catching goldfish, he was still very weak.

Fortunately, at the end of the day, the boss gave Taeyeon a very beautiful white goldfish and hoped that she would take care of his business more next time.

After expressing his gratitude with joy, he followed Kim Do-joon back to his residence in Kamakura! (To be continued......)
