"It looks like it's going to rain since yesterday. It might rain in the afternoon." Shinichi didn't refuse. let her hold his hand and continued, "I have an umbrella and batteries. No fan."
"Exactly, I'm the opposite of you." Walking to the back of the queue, Nino took out a small pink electric fan from her bag. She blew on the fan herself first, then turned to Shinichi to cool it. The wind blew against his neck.
"Come closer."
Shinichi followed her instructions and placed the electric fan between the two of them. The fluttering hair and the fragrance that entered his nose, caused his expression to change slightly.
"Did you deliberately not bring an umbrella?"
Nino looked at him with interest.
"Why do you think so?"
Shinichi spread his hands and said: "We promised to go shopping before summer vacation. Today, even though we didn't look at the weather forecast and looked at the sky through the window, shouldn't we usually take an umbrella with us before going out. Isn't this intentional?"
"Who said that? Maybe I just forgot it at home?" Nino smiled, but she didn't answer the question clearly. She said in a long voice, "Guess for yourself~ when will it rain? I'm really looking forward to it~"
Shinichi: "😐"
(Do you still need me to guess? Your behavior has made me clear, okay? You just didn't say it clearly...)
Shinichi decided to bring the topic back on track.
"You haven't said anything. Didn't you agree to go shopping? Why is the zoo your first stop? Is there anything you want to buy there?"
Nino held his hand and said in a flirtatious tone.
"Didn't I say that too? Because I come when I want to, no reason is needed. Even if there is a reason, I won't tell you. You can guess it yourself."
"I'm still guessing..." Shinichi smiled faintly.
Nino squeezed his hand a little harder and looked at him questioningly.
"Are you thinking something impolite... Mhm?"
Suddenly, she turned her head and looked behind her.
"What is wrong?"
"Are they really able to follow here?" There was no obvious reaction from the quintuplets' radar, so Nino said uncertainly.
Shinichi looked back.
"They are really good at hiding. They didn't let me find out where they were along the way." After praising her sincerely, he asked Nino, "How are they? Do you want to call them and ask them to come back? Or should we just hide?"
Nino shook her head.
"Forget it, as long as they don't disturb our date, just leave it alone. With weather like this, it won't be long before they go home alone. "
As for the siblings who were watching the two of them show off their love from a distance, what they were thinking at the end of the day, Nino would definitely ask carefully when she returned.
Nino felt something strange.
Knowing that Ichika and the others were probably watching their every move in the dark, why was Shinichi still holding her hand?
Why is the suggestion "ask them to come back" instead of asking everyone to go out and play together?
Usually, Shinichi would pretend to let go of her hand naturally...
Shinichi was always like this, he always tried to maintain distance with balance.
But today, he was very proactive. Is he planning something...
Is it possible?
A flash of lightning flashed through Nino's mind, and her expression relaxed.
"Hey, do you finally want to fall in love?"
This thought came to mind, and Nino asked it expectantly.
Shinichi frowned.
"Why do you say that?"
Nino raised both of their hands.
"This is the proof. Today you are different from usual."
Then she looked at him, waiting for his approval.
Shinichi explained, "You hold my hand first, I'm too shy to let go... Isn't holding hands on a date a basic thing?"
"Look! You said it yourself. I shouldn't have to tell you what it means, right?" Nino pointed the fan at her bangs and looked at Shinichi and showed a proud smile.
Shinichi knew how to argue. He can also explain the problem of "I don't have the idea of falling in love yet" without revealing his purpose.
As long as he let go of his hand, Nino would definitely understand the answer.
...However, seeing her bright smile blooming at this moment, Shinichi sighed.
"...That's not the way to do reading comprehension questions. Come on quickly, the team is starting to move."
Nino while breastfeeding him, and asked: "Are you really not going to explain? Then, I misunderstood, is that okay?"
She was very brave when she confessed, but she looked very nervous at the moment.
Shinichi wrung his hands, a little nervous and guilty to hide his true thoughts.
But Nino seemed to have misunderstood something, her face turned red, her eyes turned away in panic.
(Is that true?)
So, isn't she the only one who has expectations about this date and wants to be closer to her partner on this date?
(What should I do? I'm so happy)
Nino looked down and pointed the fan at herself. This wind was unable to cool the hot feeling on her cheeks.
"Just enjoy the date and don't think too much. Look, the panda is just like you, smiling like a fool."
Shinichi's voice sounded in her ears, but it had a different meaning than before.
Nino raised her head, squeezed his hand tightly, took the initiative to take a step, and pulled him closer to the glass wall of the panda cage.
The giant panda, which was still looking at the group of tourists, was frightened when it saw Nino rushing over, it rolled into its nest, leaving only its butt out.
Nino couldn't hold back her laughter, nudged Shinichi's shoulder, and giggled.
"I think this one is similar to you. It looks amazing, but it's actually just as shy... Sigh, others have to take the initiative to approach you to see your true character..."
"You are slanderous, and I will not admit it," Shinichi looked at the panda, unable to tell how this fat, silly and cute creature resembled him.
Nino walked around the panda enclosure with him.
She turned her head and looked at Shinichi, in her heart, her determination was very strong.
(If you don't dare, leave it to me)
If that feeling wasn't a misunderstanding...
