The June sun hangs in the sky, tirelessly emitting endless heat. I don't know if it's an illusion, but the cicadas in the trees seem to be getting louder and louder.

In the midst of such a voice, Yu Murakami is on his way to Sensoji Temple.

In the way of a bicycle.

On Friday night, Ai Nakano mentioned that her mother wanted to see her because she hadn't seen her daughter for a long time. It would also be nice if Yuya Murakami went to Sensoji Temple to find out how the parrot shop has been working lately.

Hearing this, Yu Murakami couldn't find a reason to refuse this matter, so he could only agree.

It was past nine o'clock in the morning on Saturday morning, when the sun had not yet reached its height. It's a pity that Yuu Murakami got on the motorcycle seat, and after trying to start, he found that the remaining oil was no longer enough for him and Ai Nakano to go to Sensoji Temple.

If you want to push your motorcycle to refuel, it may take even more time.

Ai Nakano made an appointment to have lunch with her mother.

So, Yu Murakami and Ai Nakano rushed to Sakuraso to push out the bicycle, which had probably not been touched for a long time, and used it as a means of transportation.

The reason for choosing a bicycle over a car is also simple – Miss Sakura drove her car home to run errands.

However, even if Miss Sakura is at home, Yu Murakami probably won't open his mouth to borrow this car, saving some new trouble because of borrowing the car.

In the same way, Nana Higashiyama also proposed to let her own driver drive them to Sensoji Temple, but Yu Murakami decisively refused. God knows if Nana Higashiyama will suddenly change her mind when the car drives to the gate of Sakuraso and want to go to Sensoji Temple with them?

Although the proceeds from the parrot shop, according to the loan agreement between Yu Murakami and Nana Higashiyama at that time, should all belong to her and be used to "raise children", but there is nothing less to do, and Yu Murakami did not hesitate in this regard.

As for the peerless beauty and You Mubi, they didn't say much, but just mentioned that the two of them would go to the shopping street if they had time and take the opportunity to bring some special products back.

Yu Murakami didn't answer immediately, but Ai Nakano agreed without thinking.

So, the current situation is that Yu Murakami is riding a bicycle, and Ai Nakano is sitting sideways in the back seat, hugging his waist.

"Murakami-kun, why didn't you find out earlier that the motorcycle was out of gas?" Nakano Ai Yi Ti leaned on his back and asked softly.

"Ah, I didn't use my motorcycle much some time ago, and it's too annoying to check all the time."

Ai Nakano's gaze swept over the roadside scenery that was gradually moving away, and hugged it tighter.

"Then Murakami-kun, why did Nana object when she proposed to send us over in the family's car?"

"It's too annoying, why don't we go by ourselves."

"Wouldn't it be more convenient to have a car take us to Sensoji Temple?" Ai Nakano really didn't seem to understand and continued to ask.

"Nakano, Higashiyama can have someone send us over, so what should we do when we come back?" Yu Murakami looked left and right at the road and continued to answer.

"Murakami-kun, what you said is really reasonable." The girl behind her chuckled and did not continue the question.

Ai Nakano seemed to feel that Murakami's breathing suddenly became a little uneven, or that the breathing rate became lower, but the amplitude increased.

It's called taking a big breath.

"Murakami-kun, are you tired of riding a bicycle? You can stop and rest for a while, and you don't have to force yourself. Ai Nakano closed her eyes, felt Murakami's wide back, and said with concern.

"No, just adjust my breathing, I'm not tired at all." Yu Murakami's voice came, and it was very steady.

Although the section of the road that the bicycle passed under his control was slightly uneven, Ai Nakano did not feel the bumps.

"Well, that's good."

Yu Murakami didn't answer, thinking about how to communicate after meeting Ai Nakano's mother.

There wasn't a drop of sweat on his face, so it was clear that he wasn't tired.

It was probably those questions that caused him to change his breathing rate.

However, although it is said that you can ride to Sensoji Temple, in fact, there is still a considerable part of the way to get to the parrot shop.

Yu Murakami found a suitable spot and parked his bike. Ai Nakano waited until the bike came to a stop and jumped out of the back seat.

The two of them followed the path they had come to before, heading in the direction of the store. The scenery of Sensoji Temple along the way has basically not changed from the last time I visited.

Arriving at the location of the store, Ai Nakano saw several girls who seemed to be looking around. Considering that Yu Murakami once appeared in the store, was discovered by fans, and advertised for the parrot shop, she easily judged that these girls should be fans.

"Murakami-kun, wait a minute......" Ai Nakano stopped.

"What's wrong, Nakano? The shop is right in front. Although he didn't understand it very well, Yu Murakami stopped.

"Those girls should be your fans, Murakami-kun. What are you going to do? Ai Nakano pointed to the girls in front of the store.

"Just walk over there."

"Murakami-kun! My mom must have asked you to come over to talk to you, but if they follow up with the store, do you take care of these "customers" first, or do you think about talking to my mom first? Seeing Murakami's nonchalant look, Ai Nakano reminded.

"Well, what do we do then?"

"You wait for me." Ai Nakano left a word and ran in the direction of the store.

Yu Murakami was left alone to observe the store from a safe place.

Ai Nakano quickly rushed back, holding a strange hat in her hand.

Yu Murakami watched her approaching figure, and waited until she came to him before asking, "Nakano, what are you holding in your hand?" ”

"A strange hat turned out, plus sunglasses, can always help you block their view." Because of the running back and forth, Ai Nakano was a little out of breath.

Yu Murakami took the hat from Aii Nakano's hand, looked at it a little, and found that it looked like a straw hat with a wide brim, and a layer of mesh hanging down around it.

He raised the hat in his hand and asked, "Nakano, where did you get this hat from?" ”

"I asked my mother to find it later, is it useful?"

Her tone wasn't as flat as usual.

"It occurred to me that if you want to cover up, would you just give me your hat and sunglasses?"

When Ai Nakano traveled, she put on a sunhat and put a pair of sunglasses in her bag.

"Those girls don't necessarily recognize me, and I'm going to wear a hat to cover it up." Nakano's reason for Ai is very good.

Although Yu Murakami always felt that it was Nakano Ai's sudden playfulness, but no matter what, as long as he could enter the store normally without being disturbed, he didn't care about the steps in between.

Taking the sunglasses and hat handed by Ai Nakano, Yu Murakami put them on one by one in order.

Then, he heard Ai Nakano's somewhat hidden laughter.

He looked at Ai Nakano, but he didn't say anything.

"Murakami-kun, you look like this, it's so strange......" Ai Nakano's voice trembled a little, probably because she was talking out loud while laughing.

"Isn't this the camouflage equipment you gave me, Nakano? You laugh so happily that you lose your efforts to attract others. Yu Murakami reminded Ai Nakano, and then asked, "Let's just go in like this?" ”

"No, Mom just has something to move to the store, so Murakami-kun, you can do it for you." Ai Nakano looked around and found what her mother had said.

To put it simply, it's a wooden box. As for what's inside, I don't know yet.

Ai Nakano took Yu Murakami to the wooden box and instructed him to lift the wooden box and head towards the store.

When passing by the girls in front of those shops, Yuu Murakami's strange outfits somewhat attracted their attention. However, when they looked at the wooden box that Yu Murakami was carrying, they no longer cared about this strangely dressed person.

So with the help of a hat, sunglasses and a wooden box, Yu Murakami managed to get to the store.

He put down the box and removed the disguise he had just put on one by one. Ai Nakano closed the door behind him and changed the sign to "Temporarily Closed".

"Murakami-kun, are you considered a successful smuggler?" The girl's smiling voice reached Murakami's ears.

"Not to be precise, it should be called stealth more appropriately." Yu Murakami took it seriously, causing Ai Nakano to laugh again.

Hearing the sound at the door of the store, the figure of Ai Nakano's mother turned out of the back of the store and entered the field of vision of the two.

"Murakami-kun, good afternoon."

"Hello, Aunt Nakano." Yu Murakami bowed slightly, expressing his respect.

"Please come in, it's not a problem for you and Ai Yi to stand in front of the store."

Hearing this, Ai Nakano took Yu Murakami's hand, followed his mother's steps, and led him to the back of the store.

The three of them sat down and began to talk casually.

"Murakami-kun, listen to Aiyi, you've already dated her, right?"

"Yes, Aunt Nakano, at the end of April."

"Have you figured out what to do in the future?" Nakano's mother looked at Yu Murakami's expression and added, "Don't worry, I'm just asking casually." ”

"Well, I've got a plan. If you want to hear it, I can tell you about it right now. ”

"Then there's no need, just wait for you to discuss it with Aiyi, and let her tell me." Nakano's mother shook her head slightly, signaling that she didn't need to.

Then, she turned her head to look at Ai Nakano: "Ai Yi, you are no longer a child, why are you still playing tricks on Murakami-kun in such a thing?" ”

Although she didn't know what Ai Nakano had done before, when she heard their voices and came out to check, she still saw Murakami's embarrassed appearance somewhat.

My daughter has been mature and stable since she became an adult, when will she do such a thing like a child playing tricks on others.

"Mom, don't worry, Murakami-kun is willing."

"Aunt Nakano, don't worry, this is indeed my willingness."

Yu Murakami's voice followed by Ai Nakano, leaving Nakano's mother speechless for a while.

She paused for a moment and began to talk about the parrot shop.

For example, how are the sales, what is missing in the store, and I am thinking about whether to improve the store.

Yu Murakami and Ai Nakano both listened very carefully, but the starting point was slightly different.

Yu Murakami set off from himself, Ai Nakano and Nana Higashiyama, and Ai Nakano set off from himself and Yu Murakami.

It's probably not bad, so there's no problem.

After some exchange, Nakano's mother looked at the clock in the store.

It was nearly noon, and it was time for lunch.

……

The lunch was not sumptuous, just a few rice balls made by Nakano's mother herself, and some side dishes brought by her own family.

Murakami eats quickly, and he remembers going to the shopping street to find souvenirs.

Soon, only Nakano's mother and Nakano Ai were left in the store.

"Aiyi, since you are all dating, haven't Murakami-kun changed your name?"

"Mom, I didn't change my name either."

"Neither of you thought about it?"

"Maybe it's going to change, I'm not worried about it."

"Well, were you happy at the end of April?"

"I'm very happy, but I still had a little conflict with Murakami-kun."

"Can it be solved?"

"Yes, I think it's pretty much there."

"That's good, you're an adult, and your mother can't help you much."

"Isn't there still this parrot shop? This shop is mainly run by your mother! ”

"You can't go on like this."

"Well, there will be a way later."

Nakano's mother paid attention to her daughter's eyes and confirmed the truth of her words.

She felt that the conversation was enough.

"Aiyi, when you're done eating, go find Murakami-kun."

"Well, I'll finish it right away."

"Just give him a call and give him some advice once in a while you're picking things out."

"I see, Mom! Needless to say! ”

After saying this, Ai Nakano put the last remaining bit of rice ball in her mouth, chewed it and swallowed it slightly.

Grabbing her bag, she went to the front of the store, turned the sign back to "Open", and opened the door.

"Mom, I'll leave the parrot shop to you, I'll go find Murakami-kun!"

The voice faded away, but Nakano's mother could hear it clearly.

She has indeed said a lot.

……

In the shopping street, Yu Murakami is pacing from shop to store, thinking about what souvenirs to buy.

He suddenly felt his phone vibrate.

Answering the phone, Ai Nakano's voice came from the other end: "Murakami-kun, where are you now?" ”

"Well, I can't tell, just take a picture for you."

"You wait for me there, I'll come to you right away." The voice was a little loud and small, and the girl's breath was uneven, apparently because she was running fast.

"How do I feel like this sentence is familiar?"

"yes, I said something similar before I entered the store this morning."

"I'm hanging, remember to look at the photos on the Line."

"Hmm."
