hapter 84 Aquarium Scene: I want these eyes to only look at me forever...
"Senior, how about we change the venue?" Hasegawa Yuu, who had stepped back three steps, offered an example. "If you like sniping, the shooting club is also great."
"No."
Seeing him like this, Zhufu Jingguang, who originally didn't care where to go, became thoughtful and decisively refused, "I want to go to the aquarium."
"Okay, alright then."
Thinking that this week's situation would be very different, Hasegawa Yu took a step forward, glanced at the man standing still, then took two steps forward again, returning to his previous position. "Which aquarium are you planning to go to, senpai?"
Zhu Fujingguang, who witnessed his little movements throughout the whole process: "..."
Hiding his own complex emotions, which he couldn't even describe, the black-haired, phoenix-eyed man casually suggested, "Rice Flower Aquarium."
It was different from the place he went in the fourth round, and Hasegawa Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
The Rice Flower Aquarium is some distance away from where the two are currently, and they need to take a ride there.
Hasegawa Yu took a taxi to the meeting place, but Morobushi Kagemitsu drove his own car, so naturally he took his.
Glancing at the familiar dark grey Mazda RX-7 sports car, which couldn't be said to be identical to the ones he saw around him, Hasegawa Yuu gritted his teeth and tried to find something to say.
"Senior's car is the same model as Rei-san's—let's take a city walk to the aquarium!"
Zhu Fujingguang: “?”
Are these two sentences related?
"Xiaoyou wants to walk there, which will take at least an hour and a half." Zhu Fujingguang narrowed his eyes.
What exactly is Hasegawa Yu afraid of him?
The other three... let's just say two, have you said anything bad about him?
"Oh." Hasegawa Yuu replied dryly, and then continued to suggest, "Then I'll drive, senior!"
Zhu Fujingguang decisively refused for the second time, "No."
Hasegawa Yuu fell silent. He rubbed the rings on his index and middle fingers given to him by Matsuda Jinpei with his thumb, and secretly touched the special electric baton in his small backpack. He made up his mind, opened the car door, and sat in the passenger seat.
Seeing people fastening their seat belts with a nervous look on their faces, Zhu Fu Jingguang felt a little unhappy for some reason.
I never saw Hasegawa Yu like this when we were together before.
I was discussing drinking Rusty Nail with him before the New Year, but his attitude changed after we met - it really is a honey trap.
Can’t you keep pretending now that you’ve achieved your goal?
Not knowing what his senior was thinking, Hasegawa Yu spent some time to prepare himself mentally before his mood gradually calmed down.
"By the way, Senior, the name of this face of mine is Chira Orimoto. It's my real name, so don't call me by the wrong name."
Retracting his gaze, Zhu Fujingguang, who had already known about this matter, stepped on the accelerator and said, "...Got it."
The dark gray Mazda sports car drove steadily on the road, inconspicuous in the congested traffic.
[Stay on track.] Knowing the mermaid's concern, Noah's Ark broadcast a real-time report.
After hearing the words of the artificial intelligence, Hasegawa Yu quickly glanced at Morifushi Kagemitsu, who remained very stable in his emotions after he had made a series of strange actions, and couldn't help but reflect on himself.
How can the things done by the four-week-old seniors be implicated in the innocent seven-week-old seniors!
"Why did you choose the aquarium?" Hasegawa Yu was curious.
Is this recovery?
Zhu Fu Jingguang really couldn't figure out the cause and effect, "Doesn't Qian Luo like the sea very much?"
The winter sea breeze is too biting. A young master who can get heatstroke on a snowy day, no one knows what will happen to him on the beach in winter. To neutralize it, go to the aquarium.
This will save him from getting sick and then having to look for him later.
"!" Hasegawa Yu suddenly opened his eyes wide, he didn't expect that the senior still remembered what happened in Nagoya Port so long ago.
His senior treated him like this, but he was on guard against him. It was really wrong!
In an instant, Hasegawa Yuu dropped his already limited vigilance and was filled with excitement. "I will remember this trip with my senior very well."
Cover up the bad memories with good memories!
Zhu Fujing's eyes moved slightly, and he looked at the young man in the passenger seat through the rearview mirror.
He was humming a song, his eyes and eyebrows curved, and even the dimples on his disguise mask showed through his smile.
I am really happy.
Zhu Fujingguang: "..."
Forty minutes later, at the Rice Flower Aquarium.
Although there were many tourists inside and outside the venue, it became much quieter once they entered as if a sound-reducing barrier had been cast on them.
Light and shadow intertwined in the circular tunnel covering the dome, and the dim blue light was reflected on Zhu Fujingguang's face, as if trying to pull him into this deep blue fantasy world.
A manta ray swam slowly through the glass curtain wall of the dome, casting a striking shadow.
Hasegawa Yu's gaze unconsciously followed the manta ray until it disappeared deep into the tunnel, only then he retracted it.
Oh, it's a fish just taking a walk. It's a bit old.
"Senior." The quietness of the museum made people subconsciously lower their voices. Hasegawa Yuu approached the man next to him and asked, "Is there any fish you want to see?"
He called it out to show you~
Zhu Fujingguang, who happened to see a red clownfish swimming by, hesitated for a moment and said, "Hmm... a black clownfish."
The most well-known image of clownfish is Nemo, the red clownfish in "Finding Nemo". In contrast, black clownfish are much harder to find in an aquarium full of fish and can be easily missed.
"Black clownfish..." Hasegawa Yu looked around, "Senior, can you close your eyes?"
The intelligence progress was still stuck on the suspicion that the young master could use magic. Zhu Fujingguang raised an eyebrow and asked deliberately, "Why?"
"Otherwise there won't be any sense of surprise." Hasegawa Yu clasped his hands together and blinked his eyes, "Senior, please, please~☆"
For the first time in a long time, Zhu Fujingguang, whose face was once again hit by the little stars in the corners of the young man's eyes, fell silent.
At the moment, there are not only two tourists in this circular deep-sea tunnel, so it is "magic" that will not cause much noise?
After a while, he closed his eyes and asked, "How long will it take?"
"No more than three minutes~"
In the darkness, Morofushi Jingguang heard Hasegawa Yu's light voice ringing in his ears.
"Senior, could you please put your index finger against the glass wall?"
Zhu Fujingguang, who thought this action was childish, did not move.
However, that clear and pleasant voice seemed to have some kind of magic. It clearly didn't say anything intriguing, and it wasn't even the young man's original voice, but it made people feel itchy.
"Senior, just a whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, super fast, and then you can open your eyes!"
Zhu Fu Jingguang remained silent.
Is this also "magic"?
"Try it, Senior?"
Zhu Fujingguang slowly raised his hand and extended his index finger, touching the glass curtain wall that was close at hand.
There was a chill at the fingertips, but it was not enough to awaken the feeling of being seduced by the sound.
"Senior, you can open your eyes now~"
Just like a siren singing on the sea to attract passing sailors, Zhu Fujingguang opened his eyes and was slightly stunned.
One... five... seven black clownfish swayed their graceful tails and gathered at the area where his fingertips were pressing, scrambling to get closer to his fingertips through the glass curtain wall.
The clownfishes were crowded together, swinging their bodies vigorously as if they all wanted to peck and kiss that tiny fingertip.
"Senior, do you want to take a photo as a souvenir?" Hasegawa Yu's eager voice sounded again.
Suddenly coming back to his senses, Zhu Fu Jingguang subconsciously retracted his finger, "No need."
The clownfishes, having lost their target, wagged their tails for a while, then scattered and swam slowly towards the coral reefs not far away.
"Bye~" Hasegawa Yu waved at them, "Thank you for your help~"
Zhu Fu Jingguang looked up and glanced around, and found that no one noticed their corner. He couldn't help but look at the young man who created this magical scene in just one or two minutes.
In the dim light of the tunnel with ripples, a faint orange-gold color seemed to be spreading deep in the pupils of the young man's emerald green eyes.
But upon closer inspection, the high-quality cosmetic contact lenses perfectly blocked the original eye color underneath, and the flash of color seemed like an illusion, with nothing wrong.
"How did Qianluo do it?" After calming himself down, Zhu Fu Jingguang asked his question.
"secret."
Hasegawa Yu raised his lips in a slightly complacent arc, shook his head, and gave him a playful wink, "If I have to say it, it's magic~"
"First 'whoosh whoosh', then 'bang bang bang', and you can summon the 'Nemo's'!"
As he spoke, the young man with curly hair was gesturing with his hands, which inexplicably increased his credibility a little.
Knowing that the "magic" the young man was talking about was just a lie, Zhu Fujingguang did not ask any further questions.
He looked away, secretly twisted the fingertips that had just touched the glass curtain wall, and took the initiative to change the subject, "Let's go to the next venue."
"Okay~"
The next venue is said to have a mermaid show in fifteen minutes.
"Qian Luo, do you want to see it?"
Not getting a response, Zhu Fu Jingguang turned around and saw that the young man's expression was extremely complicated, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Hasegawa Yu: "If you want to see it, we can stay and wait for a while."
"Qian Luo doesn't like the mermaid show?"
"Not really." Hasegawa Yu stammered, "It just suddenly occurred to me that the actress who plays the mermaid needs to be verified."
Not just anyone can perform underwater. The actress who plays the mermaid has to take a special mermaid certificate.
Hasegawa Yuu couldn't help but recall the time when he was shooting a fantasy series of photo magazines and it was the mermaid theme.
Mermaid theme, is there anyone who knows mermaids better than mermaids?
No!
Whether the filming location is an aquarium or the ocean, it doesn’t matter, Hasegawa Yuu will guarantee a great film!
But who knows, if you want to perform a real underwater show during filming and also want to give your fans a surprise performance afterwards, you have to do some research.
To play a mermaid, you have to take a mermaid certification exam first!
The examiner in charge of the exam once made this comment: Hasegawa Yu is the most mermaid-like person he has ever seen!
Thinking of this, Hasegawa Yu puffed up his cheeks in frustration, muttering, "How can this fish tail made of industrial leather be compared to a real fish..."
snort!
Zhu Fujingguang didn't quite hear his mumbling, "Hmm?"
"Nothing." Hasegawa Yu touched his nose, "Senior, do you want to see it?"
Seeing this, Zhu Fujingguang's eyes turned around and said, "No, I'm not too interested in performing."
So Hasegawa Yuu stood up and said, "Then let's go to the next venue. I heard there are bioluminescent jellyfish there!"
Thinking back to what the young man had just said, Zhu Fu Jingguang responded indifferently.
Is there anything special about the verification?
"Shinichi, I heard from the staff that there are only five minutes left before the show starts. Should we wait a while?"
"Well, whatever you want."
“!”
As Hasegawa Yu was about to step out of the venue, he turned a corner and said, "Senior, I suddenly want to watch the performance again."
Zhu Fujingguang glanced at him with an ambiguous expression, "Well... but I'm really not interested."
It’s not impossible for Kudo Shinichi and Mao Lilan to meet again in the future...Hasegawa Yu changed his mind like a fence-sitter, "Then I won’t watch it."
Zhu Fujingguang: "..."
"Qian Luo, this makes me think that Qian Luo can do whatever I want."
He stopped, a flickering light flashed in his blue-gray eyes. He closed his eyes and then turned his head to look at the young man beside him.
The lighting in these areas was not very bright. Facing the pair of eyes that were somewhat shadowed by the light, Hasegawa Yu pursed his lips but did not flinch.
"Senior's request is all within a reasonable range, and I can accept it whether I see it or not, so why can't I agree to it?"
Let him think about it, the seniors in the four rounds seemed to have asked similar questions.
Hasegawa Yu sighed, as expected, he is a human being~
"Yeah."
Looking into those eyes that were particularly focused and reflected only his own figure, Zhu Fu Jingguang spoke in a normal tone, but his gentle voice concealed a hint of undercurrent that the young man had not noticed.
An unspeakable dark emotion rose from his heart, and Zhu Fu Jingguang suddenly wanted to make these beautiful almond-shaped eyes look at only him forever.
Including the beautiful sound...
"Since Qianluo said that, I can't help but make more requests."
Hasegawa Yu, who felt a chill on his back for no reason, unconsciously took a step closer to the man and looked outside cautiously. How could there be a ghost in the aquarium!
Although he was afraid, he didn't forget to reply, "Senior, please tell me what you want. I'm easy to talk to. Maybe I can do it."
Unable to find the source of his irritation, Hasegawa Yu turned back, patted his chest and emphasized, "Of course, requests that require me to break the law are not acceptable."
"I won't let Qianluo break the law." Zhu Fujingguang's eyes slowly fell on the young man who was almost close to his body, and he replied with a smile.
"So what do you want me to do for you, Senior?"
"Nothing." Zhu Fu Jingguang changed the subject, "The mermaid show is about to start, let's go and watch it."
He seemed to understand why Zero agreed to his idea of imprisonment.
It's a pity that this can no longer be implemented under the current circumstances.
Hasegawa Yu: "Yeah."
Why did the senior suddenly agree?
