"Will be participating in the math competition tomorrow." Naoki took a sip of water and answered Miku's question "Then find a part time job to earn money and wait for school to start in September."
Miku asked again: "No more?"
"Sorry, the life of an ordinary high schooler is so boring."
"…Makes me angry."
Miku could only be angry.
Even though you are a salt fish, your summer vacation life is too boring. Go to the movies, swim at the beach, or go to the arcade to play Taiko Master!
Miku spun the water bottle and continued to absorb the cold air: "Work… Reckless Asakawa can continue to be a tutor."
Naoki said quickly: "Summer vacation is a time of rest, please don't talk about things related to studying."
Miku replied: "Weekends are also rest time, you don't study every day."
"Very good, you learned the new skill 'inferring others'."
"I want to."
Miku stuck her index finger lightly into Naoki's arm, and said:
"What would you do for a part-time job… Chicken gender appraiser?"
"Not." Naoki shook his head firmly, "It smells too bad."
The salary of the chicken gender appraiser was very high, but it smelled really bad. Last year, Naoki was unemployed and bored, so he took a qualification certificate for chicken gender appraiser. Now that he was an Esper, he would not rely on the chick's gender identification to support the family.
Naoki pondered: "This should be a part-time job at a restaurant or convenience store."
Of course, part-time work was only a temporary measure, and Naoki actually wanted to bet on horses.
What is the fastest way to earn money?
Excluding the means of illegal crimes, gambling is undoubtedly the fastest way to earn money, with less capital investment and high returns.
Also, in Japan, betting on horses is legal and will leave no hidden dangers. The only problem was that his current physical strength wasn't enough to predict the future.
Naturally, the plan to use other means to earn money had also been considered, but since Furuhashi had opposed, Naoki naturally wouldn't.
A light breeze blew, Miku pressed the sun hat over her head, saying, "Asakawa is really good at gaming… You can try it as a game streamer."
"Streamers are everywhere." Naoki narrowed his eyes, "The streamer you mentioned is a female-only occupation, and has nothing to do with men."
"There are also male streamers, but there are fewer of them." Miku turned her head away, and said nonchalantly, "My pocket money usually doesn't run out, and I'm going to play the Three Kingdoms game. Recently, and I'm a little bored alone… or are you playing with me as a jockey?"
Miku held the brim of her hat to cover her hot cheeks.
Say it.
Summer vacation was so long, and according to Asakawa's reckless plan, we wouldn't be able to see each other for a month, so she had to take the initiative to fight for it.
"I refuse."
After a few seconds of silence, Naoki simply answered.
"Ugh-"
Miku turned to look at Naoki unhappily.
It took me a long time to muster up the courage to simply reject it... Guilt, Harakiri!
"Weren't we still playing games together last night?" Naoki took a sip of his drink, looked at Miku and said "If it becomes a jockey to accompany you, I won't be able to close my eyes when I want to."
"I almost forgot if you didn't tell me." Miku said annoyed. "Last night, you didn't even look back, left me and ran away."
Naoki said as usual: "If I don't run, I can only get a double kill."
"Outrageous." Miku kept poking Naoki "I won't help you in the future."
While talking, the phone suddenly rings.
Naoki took out his cell phone, "It's a call from Nino."
"Asakawa." Nino's voice was heard, "Where did you and Miku go?"
"Miku..."
"Do not tell."
Miku grabbed Naoki's sleeve, shook his head gently, leaned close to Naoki's ear, and whispered in the ear gently: "I'm much better now, don't let everyone worry."
Naoki nodded lightly: "It's a long story, so I won't say it."
"Hah?" Nino raised his voice, "Believe it or not I kicked you?"
"Don't believe."
"Come here quickly and tell you what it means to do as I say."
After the phone call, Miku stood up, reached out and pulled her skirt down, "Reckless Asakawa, let's go."
Naoki looked at Miku: "Are you sure you're okay?"
"It's not comfortable anymore." Miku shook her head, "Now that I'm wearing a hat, it should be fine."
Naoki nodded: "Let's go."
"Wait a moment."
After two steps, Miku suddenly shouted.
"Um?"
"Take a photo first and then go." Miku blushed slightly, handed the phone to Naoki, then gently held the corner of Naoki's clothes, lifted the brim of her hat with the other hand, The corner of her lips curved upwards in a small arc, "... It's time for a photo."
Photo taken.
After taking two photos, Naoki and Miku walked through the crowd and quickly found Nino and the others.
"Hah?" Yotsuba circled Miku, his face full of surprise, "Why is Miku wearing a duck hat?"
"It's a sun hat." Miku explained, and then said casually, "The sun is a little hot, so I bought a hat for protection from the sun."
Itsuki curiously said:
"Wouldn't it be hot to wear a hat in the summer?"
"It's a light style." Miku took off her hat, "It won't be hot, and it could be colder."
"Oh, I forgot to put my hat on when I went out, it was definitely in the room." Ichika raised her hand and said, "I'll buy it too."
"that..."
Miku couldn't speak.
She sat on the chair and stared at the ferris wheel in confusion, not knowing where Naoki bought the hat.
"Convenience stores and supermarkets are everywhere." Naoki replied casually, "There is a convenience store in front of it, you can buy it if you want."
Nino narrowed his eyes and looked at Naoki.
"What?"
Naoki's face was as usual, and couldn't see his guilt at all.
Nino said, "Asakawa, why do you know more than Miku?"
Naoki said lightly: "Perhaps Miku's memory is not good."
Miku: "😐"
...
They walked forward talking, it was three or four o'clock, so whether they actually wore hats or not, there was no need to go to the convenience store to buy them.
After playing for a while, without realizing it, it was already night, the red sun tilted to the west, and the sky gradually darkened.
"The Ferris wheel is up ahead." Yotsuba pointed "Come on, go and ride the Ferris wheel."
Naoki reminded: "Look at the people waiting in line."
"Many people."
"When it's our turn, dinner time is over."
The ahoge hair on top of Itsuki's head trembled slightly, "The ferris wheel isn't working, shall we go eat?"
Miku nodded, "I agree."
Nino followed: "It's almost a game day, and it seems annoying to line up."
Ichika raised her hand to cover her mouth and yawned, "My shoulder hurts, let's eat, and ask Asakawa-kun to massage at night."
Naoki simply replied, "I refuse."
