The time quickly came to Friday.

After school in the afternoon, Naruse and Naoko didn't stay at school for a long time, and went back directly.

I have to go to Sendai at night.

When he got home, packed his bags a little, and went to the bus stop to meet up, he was not surprised to see starfish waiting there with his bag.

They all have to go over, and Morimi will definitely not let her be left behind.

Starfish looked at them, "Kazuha said, we can go and play together......"

“……”

Double standard.

"We learned from the past." Naruse said solemnly.

Starfish was stunned, "Ah......hhh

Naoko smiled and signaled her to be reassured.

After waiting a little longer, Morimi also came.

"Did you bring everything?" She asked the starfish.

"Brought ...... It's just a change of clothes. ”

"Anyway, it's a hassle to go out and play, and it's also a hassle to bring too many things." Naruse suddenly interjected beside him.

“……”

Morimi pretended not to hear, and said a few more words to the starfish before looking at him.

"Is there any news alone?"

He stared at her for a moment, "She said to wait a little longer." ”

Buzz –

Another message has been sent.

Light: Come to my house.

"Go to her house."

Several people picked up their luggage again and went to Takikawa's house.

"Don't wait for the bus, Dad said he's coming back soon."

Hikaru Takikawa came over to open the door, "Send us directly to Aomori to take the Shinkansen later." ”

"Yes."

"Everybody's coming." Takigawa Yue, who hadn't seen her for a long time, greeted a few people on the sofa, "Let's go play together." ”

"Uh-huh." Starfish nodded.

Naruse looked at Morimi, she looked at him too, then at Takikawa Tsuki, and then went over and sat down next to her, asking her about her preparation for the exam.

After another ten minutes, Takigawa Yohei drove home, rested a little, and prepared to send a few people to Aomori.

"Let's put our luggage in the car first."

Takikawa got into the car and sat in the co-pilot's seat.

Hikaru Takikawa sits in the middle, and the starfish occupies another position.

Naruse, Naoko, and Morimi sat in the last row, filling all seven seats.

"I was going to drive you directly to Sendai." Takigawa Yohei said while reversing, "But I still have work tomorrow morning, so I can't get out of the way." ”

"It's eight or nine hours to drive back and forth, it's too far." Naruse continued.

Takigawa Yohei was a little surprised, and glanced at him in the rearview mirror, "Have you also walked that road?" ”

"No, I just looked up the route on the map by the way." Naruse said.

"I see."

He nodded, and then began the driving route from Tsumae.

“…… After the town of Iogami, I basically drove in the mountains, especially ......"

While Takigawa Yohei had just turned the car around and had not yet set off, Naruse patted the starfish seat in the front row and motioned for her to change positions with him to facilitate communication.

Starfish was just about to get up, but Hikaru Takikawa held her down, "I'll go to the back." ”

Naruse swapped places with her, and then with starfish.

“……”

With surprise and joy in his mind, Starfish looked back at Naoko, who was sitting between Morimi and Hikaru Takikawa, and quickly turned back again.

When they sat down again, Takigawa Yohei said hello to his wife who stayed at home and set off on his way.

"A few years ago, in the first month of the year, I drove Midoriko and Hikari Kazuki to Morioka, and when I passed by the antlers, I ......"

While driving the car, Yohei Takikawa talked about the past, and Naruse answered in the back, occasionally asking "then", at least he seemed to be listening attentively.

The starfish shrunk into the seat, and the driver looked at the driver when he spoke, and he looked at him when he spoke.

When he arrived in the city, Takikawa Yue, who had been sitting quietly, suddenly sat up straight and stared at somewhere outside for a while.

"Dad, stop over there."

"What's wrong...... See an acquaintance? ”

"Yes, classmate."

Yohei Takikawa drove over and slowed down to a stop.

Takigawa Moon lowered the car window, "Lanzi, Kiyomi." ”

"Eh, the ...... of the moon"

The two girls on the side of the road came over, saw Takigawa Yohei in the driver's seat, said hello first, and then asked, "Did Uncle send Tsuki directly to Sendai?" ”

"No, it's just to Aomori, and we'll take the Shinkansen."

"Huh...... Then take us on a trip, Lanzi and I just happened to be going to Aomori. ”

"Ah......" Takikawa looked back at the car, which was already full.

Kiyomi also looked at it, only to find that it was full.

She glanced at the starfish.

"Hey, these kids ......"

Her gaze fell on Naruse's face, and she paused again.

"We are the support group of the month-" Hikaru Takikawa's voice came from the innermost.

"Haha, I see, do you want to go with the moon?"

"Uh-huh."

"Okay, forget it." The two waved their hands, "Come on for tomorrow's exam." ”

Takikawa nodded repeatedly.

After saying goodbye, Yohei Takikawa stepped on the accelerator and the car restarted.

"There are a few classmates who are going to Sendai for the exam, right?" He asked.

"Well, we've made an appointment to meet at Aomori."

It takes forty or fifty minutes to get from Tsumae to Shin-Aomori Station, and there was no snow this afternoon, the road was clear, and the speed of the car was basically not affected much.

Sending a few people to the station, Takigawa Yohei looked at his little daughter, "The moon is please." ”

"Okay."

He looked at Naruse again, "These girls are asking for Harumi." ”

Naruse nodded, "Okay." ”

He finally looked at his eldest daughter, who was going to take the exam tomorrow.

"Don't think too much, just be the same as usual."

Takikawa Yue straightened up and bowed his head slightly.

"Okay. I set off. ”

Seeing Takikawa Yohei drive away, several people picked up their luggage and entered the station.

"Has Sister Yue's classmates arrived?" Naruse remembered what he had just heard in the car.

"I'll ask ......"

Takikawa Yue picked up his phone and sent a few messages, and looked left and right again, "They're over there." ”

A few people followed with their things.

I met with Takikawa Tsuki's classmates who were also going to Sendai for the exam, and after waiting for a while, they got on the Shinkansen in Sendai together.

"Yue, where is the hotel you are staying in?"

Because of the different schools to be examined, several people just made an appointment to go to Sendai together, and the places where they lived were not the same.

"The West Hotel is relatively close to the station and the Northeast."

"Ah, sure enough...... We're over here, far apart. ”

"Let's meet again after the exam."

"That's all it takes......"

The train headed south, leaving Aomori and heading for Sendai.

Nearly two hours later, the Shinkansen stopped at Sendai Station, where the group disembarked and temporarily separated.

"Come on, month."

"Mm-hmm, you have to come on, too."

Hugging, parting, leaving the station, several of Takikawa Tsuki's classmates went to take the train or bus, while she picked up her luggage, followed by Naruse and a few people, and walked towards the hotel.

"Let's go to the hotel first, and then come out and find a place to have dinner."

"Okay."

Naruse looked down at the map, then at the intersection in front of him, "Go this way." ”

The hotel building is tall and conspicuous enough to be seen from afar, but it takes a little time to walk through.

Coming to the bottom, Hikaru Takikawa looked up, "It's so high." ”

"Our room is also on the upper floor, let's go inside."

Walk into the hotel and check in, the price of the hotel is not cheap, so the service is quite attentive.

"Please follow me."

I followed the hotel staff into the elevator, and I continued to rise in a faint feeling of overweight, and I didn't stop until the twenty-first floor.

Several people's rooms are on the same floor, but they are not completely connected.

Naruse's room is adjacent to Naoko's room, and there are several rooms separated by the Takigawa sisters' room, and beyond that are the rooms of the starfish and Morimi.

Putting down his luggage, Naruse walked to the window and looked out at the city of Sendai below.

Night had already risen, the city was brightly lit, and not far away was Sendai Station, where they had just come.

Putting down the luggage, Naoko also came over and stopped beside him.

"It's so high."

"Hmm. If you live on the other side, you can see the campus of Tohoku University. ”

After looking at it for a while, she looked back at the two beds that were put together, because he was the only boy, so he had a separate room.

"Spring Sea." The other four people also came, "Let's go eat." ”

"Let's go."

Leaving the hotel, guided by the map, several people found a restaurant nearby and settled for dinner.
