"Shall we do it?"
"Yes!!!!" x4
At The Amusement Park, the person in charge smiled and nodded, then turned her gaze to the only gentleman present.
Beside him, four pretty, charming faces also looked at Hotaru.
"…"
Stare~!
Hotaru felt the gazes growing heavier.
"…Do it."
Eight eyes narrowed, and the four faces broke into smiles.
"Oh yeah!!"
Yui and Ritsu jumped up excitedly.
"…Yeah!"
Mugi was a bit slower to react but immediately raised her hands and cheered along.
Mio's face was slightly red. "I can't do it!"
"So, why am I even here…?"
Hotaru mumbled weakly.
My wonderful weekend!
I had planned to update my light novel at home these two days.
It seems that won't be happening now.
So, Ryo, and my readers, don't blame me!
It's not me being lazy; it's the girls who won't allow it.
As for updating, we'll talk about it when there's a chance.
Hotaru had lent Yui 250,000 yen, so Yui already had enough money to buy Giita.
However, the Light Music Club girls still decided to work part-time together.
Because that way, everyone would have more funds to buy various instrument parts.
After all, playing in a band is very expensive.
In addition, today's part-time job deeply tempted everyone.
As long as they finished their work at The Amusement Park in the morning and afternoon, they could experience all the facilities at The Amusement Park for free in the evening.
What a great deal!
So, Ritsu mentioned in the Light Music Club group chat last night,
"Hotaru-kun!"
"You wouldn't be heartless enough to leave us four cute girls in a crowded amusement park, would you! What if we encountered bad people? How dangerous!"
"So, let's work together!"
Hotaru thought it made a lot of sense, so he came, perhaps partly because he didn't want to stay cooped up at home writing novels.
If Nijika knew that he had rejected Starry's part-time job on one hand, and then ran off to work part-time with several other girls on the other hand, who knows what she would think.
Nijika is so great, she surely wouldn't mind, right?
Hotaru thought so.
Since they like working part-time so much, perhaps he could introduce them to Starry? But Starry doesn't seem to need so many people from the Light Music Club.
"Hotaru, it's time to go," Yui reminded him.
"Exactly, Hotaru-kun, don't space out."
"This is a rare opportunity to work with four beautiful girls!"
"I dare say, if I hadn't invited you, you would absolutely not have this chance."
Ritsu had a triumphant smile on her face, completely different from when she was trying to win Hotaru over last night.
She changes faces so quickly!
"Cherish it well… Ah ha ha ha ha ha…"
"Mm-hmm!"
Mugi nodded expectantly.
Mio couldn't bear to watch; Ritsu was too narcissistic.
"Alright, I'll catch up right away…"
Hotaru snapped out of it; he was just about to retort Ritsu's words when he was interrupted.
"Yui!"
Yui and Ritsu exchanged glances, their eyes sparkling.
"Mm!"
"Hmph! Hmph!!"
"Hey, wait, don't do that…"
Hotaru was seen being dragged forward by Yui and Ritsu, each holding one of his arms.
Hotaru could naturally break free from the strength of the two girls.
But it wasn't convenient to forcefully break free!
Ugh! It was a little uncomfortable…
"Mmm…"
Mugi followed behind, her eyes shining; she also wanted to hold one of Hotaru-san's hands.
It looked so fun.
But Hotaru-san didn't have any extra hands!
"What a pity… Mio."
Mugi pouted, looking regretfully at Mio.
Mio was slightly stunned. "Pity?"
But when Mio followed Mugi's envious gaze, she understood.
Mio's face instantly turned red; she felt it was necessary to educate Mugi about the differences between boys and girls.
...
Today's part-time job was very simple.
It was merely wearing heavy mascot costumes under the nearly 30℃ sun in The Amusement Park square, distributing stacks of flyers, and occasionally making cute gestures to pose for photos with tourists.
"Wow! So fluffy~"
"So soft~"
"So cute!"
Except for Ritsu, the other three girls were already attracted by the exquisite mascot costumes.
Mr. Pan, a penguin, a brown bear, a black cat, a white rabbit.
Mio and Mugi were hugging them with some restraint.
Yui was already rubbing her face against them without any regard for her image.
"Sure enough, girls have no resistance to these kinds of things!"
Hotaru said subconsciously.
"Wait, Hotaru-kun! I can't agree with that."
Ritsu protested.
That was basically saying she wasn't a girl!
"My bad, I forgot about you."
Hotaru smiled.
"Damn it!"
Ritsu pretended to be angry, then shouted loudly,
"Little ones! Charge!"
This, of course, referred to putting on the mascot costumes.
"Oh!!!!" x4
Everyone spoke in unison, and Hotaru was unconsciously swept up by the atmosphere!
"Yui, that's my head."
Hotaru reminded her; he had chosen the penguin mascot, but Yui had taken his head.
"Eh? Is it? Could it be that Hotaru, you've made a mistake?"
Yui stared at the headpiece in her hand, looking at it seriously.
Hotaru's mouth twitched.
"Have you finally become so spaced out that you can't even tell the difference between a penguin and Mr. Pan?"
"Mmm… It's because they're all black and white."
Yui feigned grievance, her eyes watery.
"Hotaru, Hotaru-chan, you're bullying me!"
"Hmph hmph! Hotaru-kun, I won't allow you to bully Yui!"
Ritsu, who had put on the brown bear mascot costume first, jumped out and pointed at Hotaru, shouting.
"Ritsu!"
Yui was greatly moved.
"Besides, Mr. Pan with a penguin head might be even more interesting," Ritsu said.
At these words,
Yui immediately became interested. "That's right!"
She actually threw down Mr. Pan's head and ran to snatch the penguin head from Hotaru's hand.
Due to her height disadvantage, Yui couldn't reach the penguin head in Hotaru's hand at all.
"Hotaru, give it to me quickly!"
"No!"
"Give it to me!"
"No!"
"Give it to me!"
"No!"
...
No matter what Yui said, Hotaru sternly refused.
Giving you the penguin head would absolutely be a betrayal to Kessoku Band!
Wait! Why did I think of such heavy words?
Hotaru was slightly stunned; in an unguarded moment, Yui's hand actually grabbed the penguin head.
"Oh!"
Ritsu got excited and started cheering.
"Yui, go! Yui, go!"
Mugi's eyes also lit up; she had put on the white rabbit mascot.
"Then I'll cheer for Hotaru-san."
"Hotaru-kun, go!"
"Yui, go!"
He really didn't expect that just changing into mascot costumes would make these people start messing around.
Mio sighed helplessly.
"Alright, stop messing around, we're the only ones left who haven't gathered."
Mio, having put on the black cat mascot, pointed to the large group of other part-time staff who had already gathered ahead.
Hotaru cast a grateful look; Mio was still reliable!
"Eh, so fast!"
Yui was startled; she hadn't even put on the lower half of her costume yet.
"Alright!"
Ritsu no longer dared to cause trouble.
So, everyone hurriedly helped Yui put on her costume and ran to the gathering point.
