Today is a perfect weather for festivals.

Perhaps it was because of the blessings in the countryside, the night sky was clear and clear, and you could clearly see the stars flashing in the sky. In the city, this is a very rare scene.

There will be countless fireworks blooming under such a night sky. Just thinking about it will make people feel refreshed and secretly looking forward to it.

Of course, the lively atmosphere of the festival venue is also very enjoyable.

The venue for the Fireworks Festival is right next to the shrine.

There is a bank next to the river.

At this moment, there are many stalls side by side by side on the river bank.

"Taokao! Very delicious takoyaki!"

“Freshly baked meatballs!”

"I've shot the target! I've won the prize!"

"You can catch goldfish here! Come and have a look!"

On each stall, the owners of the stalls made enthusiastic greetings, making loud shouts one after another, and first created a lively atmosphere.

The lively atmosphere seemed to raise the temperature in summer a little, and the music of the festival was still ringing around, which made children run over in laughter and joy. The adults also enjoyed it fully. There were also many girls wearing yukatas, which looked much quieter and more elegant than usual.

"Here! Come here!"

Chunhu walked in front with the lead and waved to everyone.

"Don't do this, it's embarrassing."

Dong'er sighed, putting her hands in her pockets, looking like a gangster who would not enter a stranger, but she still walked forward obediently under Chunhu's greeting.

As for Natsume, it was pulling Luo Zhen's hand and pointing to a place.

"What is that?"

“Taokao.”

“It looks delicious.”

"What? Have you not eaten it?"

"No...no..."

"Then go and buy it."

As Natsume was embarrassed, Luo Zhen took her to the stall of the octopus takoyaki and bought a few skewers of takoyaki. Not only did she give it to Natsume, but also to Chunhu and Dong'er.

Things like this have been happening since the beginning.

Natsume held takoyaki in one hand and royuki in the other. While quietly eating the snacks in her hand, her eyes were still glittering at the stalls around her.

That look like a child who was visiting a festival for the first time.

This made Luo Zhen feel surprised.

"I said, Natsume." Luo Zhen couldn't help asking, "Have you never visited the festival?"

This should be impossible, right?

Let’s not talk about other festivals, but the fireworks festival is held once a year. How could Natsume not have visited it?

But seeing Natsume's current performance, Luo Zhen could only doubt it so much.

Unfortunately, Luo really suspected that it was correct.

"I...I have indeed never visited the festival before."

Natsume lowered his head, blushed with an unspeakable look, and said such words.

"No way?"

Luo Zhen was really surprised.

Chunhu spoke up in response to this.

"Natsume has not participated in the festival since before. She either hid at home and studied spells at home. She didn't even come to me to invite her."

Chunhu revealed this past.

"It really has the style of a top student."

Dong'er started making fun of it intentionally or unintentionally.

This made Natsume's face unspeakable blush begin to disappear, and was replaced by resentment.

"The study of spells is something that requires constant persistence, especially when I was young. If I don't lay a solid foundation, my future achievements will definitely be very low." Natsume retorted: "Since I have decided to become an Onmyoji, I have to work hard, but I don't have much time to participate in the festival."

This should be just one of the reasons, right?

It is true that with Natsume's personality, this kind of thing is not impossible to do, but in addition to this, Natsume is afraid of being a child, which is also a very important reason.

It was indeed a bit embarrassing to let such Natsume come to the lively festival.

Not to mention...

"I remember you said before that if Qiu Guan didn't come, then you didn't want to come, right?"

Chunhu exposes this point without thinking.

"Wow? So that's the reason?"

Dong'er began to become more interested.

"Well..."

Luo Zhen was also silent.

I really didn't expect that Natsume would become a child who had never even participated in the festival for his own reasons.

Is this considered a serious sin?

Luo Zhen reflected on himself.

"No...not that!" Natsume became a little panicked and said quickly: "Because... I think that Qiuguan must be working hard to learn spells when I was attending the festival, so I must also strictly demand myself!"

This is Natsume's explanation.

Unfortunately, this explanation was only exchanged for Chunhu and Dong'er's teasing eyes and expressions, which made his pretty face turn red again, and he tried his best to refute.

That's it...

"You seem to have never attended the festival, right? Qiuguan?"

Chunhu turned his finger to Luo Zhen, causing Luo Zhen's mouth to twitch.

Seeing this, Dong'er grinned as if she had caught a handle.

"I really didn't expect that the genius of the original family was also a young master who had never seen much."

Dong'er is so provocative.

But Luo Zhen couldn't refute it.

no way.

Even though he had lived for decades, Luo Zhen still had never attended the festival.

This is the sadness of squatting at home.

“……Salvation or something, it’s too boring.”

Luo Zhen could only remain silent for a while, and then made a stiff counterattack.

"...It's really an excuse that little kids will find."

Dong'er was speechless.

Because Luo Zhen showed his side as an Onmyoji before, Dong'er even regarded Luo Zhen as a guy that should not be underestimated. Now the contrast has suddenly become so big that Dong'er can't be speechless.

"It's true."

Even Natsume laughed, which made Luo Zhen feel extremely unhappy.

At this moment...

"Hahaha."

Chunhu laughed, and she laughed very happily.

"why are you laughing?"

"elder brother?"

"Why do you suddenly laugh like this?"

Luo Zhen, Natsume and Dong'er all looked at Chunhu in a daze.

"It's okay."

Chunhu waved his hand, and said so, but his face was still so happy.

Immediately...
