Chapter 237. [Mobile Amusement Park]
Cheerful music fills the night air.
The surroundings are enveloped in a dazzling parade of lights.
“Ugh! I can’t believe I have to go back to Japan by tomorrow!”
“Time really flew by, huh~”
“After returning to Japan, Mai’ll make sure to study hard and not slack off.”
“Ugh, why does Iroha-sensei have to be so strict! I want to forget about reality while we’re at the amusement park.”
Mai covers her ears and protests.
Yes, today, we were visiting an amusement park.
More accurately, it’s that the amusement park came to us’.
Because today, the place we visited for fun is.
“Anego, you spotted this place well! I had no idea a ‘mobile amusement park’ was nearby!”
“As expected, you’re sharp when it comes to these things.”
“Hehe, well~!”
Ah-nee proudly puffs her chest.
The nearby large parking lot had been transformed with the arrival of mobile attractions.
From carousels to wave swingers, vikings, roller coasters.
The lineup was so extensive that it didn’t seem mobile at all.
The scale was unimaginable in terms of how they transported everything.
Though, I feel like there’s a bit of an overemphasis on thrill rides.
“Alright, let’s go on that next! That one!”
“Huh!? Ah-nee, let’s not!? That thrill ride is definitely going to have an accident someday! It’s so rickety!”
“Heh~! Iroha-chan, are you not good with thrill rides~?”
It’s not that I’m not good with thrill rides! It’s just that you can only enjoy them when safety is ensured!
“Geez, you’re so selfish~. Fine, let’s settle for the Ferris wheel!”
“Oh, but it looks small, so we can only ride two at a time! Hmm~”
The eyes of the three sparkled, and they assumed a stance.
They simultaneously thrust out their arms.
“Rock, paper, scissors!”
Ah-nee and Ogu chose rock, while Mai triumphantly revealed paper.
Mai celebrated her victory with a victory pose.
“Oh, wait. I forgot to do mine, let’s redo it.”
“Alright, Iroha-chan, let’s go!”
“W-Why me?”
There seemed to be some telepathy among them.
It appeared that teams had already been decided.
Mai linked arms with me, dragging me towards the Ferris wheel.
Ah-nee and Ogu followed behind us, sighing.
“Ferris wheel, just the two of us, against the glittering night view… At the top of that, Mai and Iroha-chan will be like, hehehe~!”
Huh, wait, really!? Just the two of us!?
This is bad, another crisis of chastity!?
《Please get on.》
We were pushed into the gondola by the attendant.
It was small and open, just as expected.
“It’s just the two of us, Iroha-chan~”
“Haha… Y-Yeah…”
《Okay, let’s start moving.》
With a rough signal from the attendant, the Ferris wheel began to turn.
The wind brushed against our cheeks, and we leisurely enjoyed the night view. Huh?
“Wait, isn’t it going a bit fast?”
“I-It does seem so~?”
In no time, the Ferris wheel accelerated.
With a booming sound, it began to rotate at a tremendous speed.
“S-Stop it! It’s too fast!”
Mai and I held onto each other desperately to avoid getting thrown off.
Wait, this isn’t the Ferris wheel that I know!
After about ten rotations, the Ferris wheel stopped abruptly.
We stumbled out of the gondola, feeling shaken.
“I thought I was going to die! This wasn’t a Ferris wheel, it was a full-blown thrill ride!”
“Mai was supposed to have a romantic atmosphere with Iroha-chan…”
“No, hahaha! That was so much fun~!
I wouldn’t mind riding it again!”
“You guys, scared of a mere Ferris wheel?”
Ah-nee and Ogu, who got off later, laughed nonchalantly.
Don’t compare us, who are terrified, with those who are fearless or used to it!
“Oh, look! They’re selling delicious-looking stuff! Shall we buy and share?”
“Right after that ride!?”
“Oh well, I can’t read the menu at all! Let’s just get this and that…”
“Hey, let me explain a bit! These are empanadas, stuffed bread. These are fried Snickers, fried Twinkies, and Dippin’ Dots ice cream.”
Before we knew it, a high-calorie menu was laid out on the table.
Things like churros, which are common in Japan, were of a different size here.
And no matter where you go, they always sell French fries.
“Mmm, delicious!”
“Can’t believe we can eat this after that…”
I wish I had a stomach as strong as Ah-nee’s and a mental toughness of steel.
And so, time passed in the blink of an eye—.

“Well then, Ogu. We’ll come visit again!”
“Thank you for everything, Ogu-san!”
“Alright, take care now! Let’s meet up again when I come to Japan!”
We bid farewell at the airport.
Although it was a long stay this time, we’ve grown accustomed to it. Farewells were now swift.
It’s nostalgic to think back to the first time when Ogu cried and lamented the parting at the Japanese airport.
Back then, because of that, an accident happened. No, let’s not dwell on that.
“Well then, I’ll also return temporarily. I’ll be back by next week.”
“Iroha, come back soon! I’ll be waiting, okay? Definitely!”
“No… I said I’ll be back soon.”
Why is she lamenting our separation more than worrying about when she’ll see Mai and me again? Well, it’s about time.
“Well then, off to Japan after a long time!”
And so, I set foot on Japanese soil after a long while.

<Oh, oh my, Iroha-sama! It’s been a while. No, nice to meet you!>
I was meeting one of my favorites. Ilyena for the first time.
