Chapter 32

Lunch was at a high-end business restaurant.

They ate traditional Japanese cuisine.

"Is this the characteristic restaurant of Tokyo, Nishiyama-kun?" Eiko Nishiyama had a slightly disappointed look on her face.

"What's wrong? Is it not tasty?"

It wasn't that it wasn't tasty, but the dishes at a business restaurant were generally... very business-like.

And even if they were well-made, traditional Japanese cuisine had been eaten for over a decade...

"It's tasty, but I don't feel the characteristic of Tokyo..."

"What is the characteristic of Tokyo?"

"Well, you know, the characteristic... Nae-chan, you tell them too~"

Eiko clearly couldn't articulate her thoughts and could only seek help from Kozue Tsubaki...

"The characteristic of Tokyo... that advanced, world-class feeling~"

"Ah, I see~ Next time I'll take you to a Western restaurant, French, Italian, Spanish, you can choose~" Nishiyama Naoki immediately understood what the two girls meant.

After a simple lunch, the three of them went to Akihabara's pedestrian zone, where, as expected, a group of otaku were performing.

Various groups were competing, not just singing and dancing, but also performing acrobatics and magic...

Nishiyama Naoki rented a camera and became the dedicated photographer for the two.

Then he became the snack payer, the scenery explainer...

After running around for an afternoon, the two were surprisingly not tired.

After shopping until evening, Nishiyama Naoki took the two to a high-end Western restaurant, and this time they ate happily.

In the evening, the two originally wanted to go to a nightclub, but Nishiyama Naoki refused, saying they were still minors, and took them back to the apartment.

"Go to bed quickly! Tomorrow I'll take you shopping on the commercial street~"

"Ah~ Nii-chan, are you going to buy me something?" Eiko Nishiyama became super excited!

"Then I want cosmetics, new clothes, a new radio..."

"Dream on." Nishiyama Naoki immediately silenced Eiko with a flick of his hand.

"Mother specifically instructed me not to spend too much money on you, and you can only buy one gift!"

Then he said to Kozue Tsubaki, "Nae-chan can also choose one, as a souvenir from Tokyo!"

"Ah, I can choose too!" Kozue Tsubaki was pleasantly surprised, "Thank you so much, Naoki-kun!"

After all, they had grown up as neighbors, and their parents were good friends, so giving gifts was quite normal.

...

That night, when they were in bed, Kozue Tsubaki and Eiko Nishiyama whispered to each other.

"Nishiyama-kun is really nice, Nae-chan~"

"What's so nice!" Eiko thought, even the gift is only one for me, how stingy.

"Handsome, rich, young, talented, and he can buy me gifts~" Kozue Tsubaki listed Nishiyama Naoki's strengths.

Hearing all the good things from Nae-chan, Eiko puffed up and said, "He's so good, why don't you just marry him!"

"Maybe I will~" Kozue Tsubaki seemed a bit wistful.

Eiko Nishiyama couldn't believe it, I treat you like a sister, and you want to be my sister-in-law?!

...

The next morning.

Nishiyama Naoki was actually woken up by the two girls, indeed, those who want to go out to play can't sleep.

In the morning, he fulfilled his promise and took them to the shopping district in Shibuya.

As usual, the shops were full of goods, and the two girls had already decided, heading to the clothing area.

Indeed, a fashionable and pretty dress is what girls of this age like the most.

Watching the two try on clothes, change clothes, and match outfits tirelessly, Nishiyama Naoki felt the pain of men accompanying their girlfriends shopping in the future...

And there were no smartphones, so he couldn't escape by playing a game...

Why did Nishiyama Naoki choose a minimalist style?

On one hand, it was comfortable to wear, and on the other hand, it was easy to buy clothes without much thought.

Finally, after the two chose their clothes, Nishiyama Naoki quickly paid and wanted to end this as soon as possible.

Next, they continued shopping, but this time they didn't buy anything~

The commercial area of Shibuya, besides department stores and fashion, also had various snack shops, cafes, and game facilities. As they walked, they unexpectedly found that the two wanted to go to a pachinko parlor?

"Pachinko, isn't it also in Shizuoka?"

"How can it be the same? This is Tokyo's pachinko!"

Nishiyama Naoki didn't feel it, but seeing their determined looks, there seemed to be a big difference.

He spent 3000 yen to buy pachinko balls...

Nishiyama Naoki didn't know how to play pachinko, but the two girls played happily, winning a lot of balls, and then exchanged them for two small bear keychains.

He really couldn't understand, 3000 yen was enough to buy 10 of these keychains.

...

The bustling commercial street was filled with a flowing crowd. The famous Shibuya crossing, which sees 3000 people per minute, was already showing its future appearance.

Shibuya is known as the birthplace of young, fashionable, and trendy culture, and indeed, you could see street performers singing and avant-garde performance art.

There were fewer groups in odd costumes than in the pedestrian zone, but they seemed more in line with international trends.

Nishiyama Naoki didn't like shopping, so Eiko Nishiyama and Kozue Tsubaki walked ahead, and he followed behind with the bag.

People who didn't know might think the ones in front were the real Tokyo residents leading the way.

Lunch was solved in the food street, with takoyaki, yakitori, wagyu skewers, okonomiyaki, taiyaki, various snacks, and creative sushi, these delicious snacks could fill the stomachs of every tourist.

Besides the commercial area, Shibuya is also famous for the Meiji Shrine, a huge green space in the city center, spanning from Yoyogi to Harajuku.

Entering the quiet and solemn Meiji Shrine from the bustling commercial street, the two girls became much more subdued. Besides touring and worshiping, they also got a special fortune slip "Dai-Mikoto" at the Meiji Shrine.

The fortune text, Nishiyama Naoki hadn't heard of it before, but it seemed to encourage people to be good.

The Meiji Shrine was vast, from the entrance, to the approach, to the large torii gate, then touring the couple camphor trees, the shrine garden...

The shrine garden had a few cherry blossoms, but they were scattered and not particularly special.

By the time they came out, it had been over two hours.

After walking for a morning, covering more than 10 kilometers, the two girls were finally tired, and Nishiyama Naoki called a taxi to go home.

...

After returning home, Nishiyama Naoki let the two take a shower first.

"After walking for so long, rest at home first,

Then in the afternoon, we'll go to Meguro River to see the cherry blossoms!"

"You can wear the new clothes~

I can take beautiful photos!"

The two girls finally felt a bit tired and obediently went to wash up.

Nishiyama Naoki then brewed a pot of tea, so they could drink it after they finished.

It was early spring, and the light conditions around 2-3 PM were very good, suitable for viewing cherry blossoms along the Meguro River. Unfortunately, there were no night lights like in the future, otherwise, the night cherry blossoms would have been a very beautiful sight.

After viewing the cherry blossoms, they could continue to play in the nearby commercial streets, cafes, or bars.

In the evening, there seemed to be a carnival at Meguro River, which was said to be very lively.

Nishiyama Naoki had never seen it before and was also very interested~
