Tokyo's Most Affectionate - Chapter 45

Something Exciting

For the final shot, Kurosawa supported Ninomiya’s arm once again and took the shot.

Without suspense, it hit the target again.

Although the guns at this shooting booth were adjusted somewhat, it wasn’t excessive. The difficulty in shooting lay in stabilizing the arms, preventing unnecessary movement in all directions.

Even a photographer skilled in steadying things could significantly improve the hit rate.

“These are your prizes.”

Seeing the result, the stall owner happily handed them sealed small toys.

“So many toys, what should we do?”

Kurosawa had acquired nine of them, filling his arms.

“Let’s find a locker to put them in and grab them on our way out,” Ninomiya suggested, holding two toys in her hands.

The adventure in the amusement park had just begun, and they wouldn’t be able to enjoy it with all these plush toys in tow.

With this decision made, near the entrance of the children’s playground, they found lockers and stuffed all the toys into them.

Due to the large quantity, one locker wasn’t enough, so they had to use two.

“Do you work out regularly?” With everything stored away and her hands free again, Ninomiya turned to Kurosawa.

It wasn’t apparent when he was wearing clothes, but during the hug-like action just now, she sensed the strength hidden beneath Kurosawa’s refined appearance.

“Occasionally,” Kurosawa shrugged.

Before obtaining the system, he used to jog twice a week, maintaining basic physical and mental health.

“Don’t be so modest. Those muscles don’t look like they’re from occasional workouts,” Itsuragi remarked, having some experience in this area.

Regardless of how strong his muscles were, this guy had quite a bit of strength. Whether it was in the car, where he could hold onto the handle without being jolted around due to inertia, or just now when he hugged her while playing on the trampoline.

“Haha.” Kurosawa didn’t elaborate and just smiled it off.

“What do you want to do next?” Seeing that he wasn’t inclined to boast, Ninomiya was curious but didn’t press further.

“Before lunch, let’s go for something thrilling.” Kurosawa, taking charge of the plans, suggested after some thought.

Upon hearing this, the two women couldn’t help exchanging a glance.

Could it be that we’re going to a haunted house? Ninomiya speculated silently.

This amusement park’s most famous attraction was the widely acclaimed and terrifying haunted house, the Jikyu General Hospital.

Right at the entrance, they exited the children’s playground and began their thrilling journey.

For their first stop, they arrived near the attraction, which required waiting in line. Fortunately, the queue wasn’t too long.

“The high-flying coaster?” Ninomiya lifted her head to observe the structure and facilities in front of her, adjusting her glasses.

“Since we’re at Fuji-Q, not experiencing a roller coaster would be a missed opportunity,” Kurosawa nodded in agreement.

Fortunately, they didn’t need to wait in line.

“Have you ridden this before?” Ninomiya couldn’t help asking when she noticed he seemed quite experienced.

“No, this is my first time too,” Kurosawa shook his head slightly, looking up at the ridiculous track, feeling a bit of an accelerated heartbeat.

In reality, if it weren’t for the location requirement of the date mission being an amusement park and another mission to make Ninomiya shed tears, he would never have chosen Fuji-Q Highland.

“Is it dangerous?” At this moment, Itsuragi suddenly felt a bit scared.

Unlike the trampoline, which had a very low risk factor, if something went wrong with the roller coaster, it would be more terrifying than a plane crash.

This comment reminded Ninomiya.

This high-flying coaster, apart from being thrilling, could also come with potential danger.

“Don’t worry, this amusement park has been in operation for many years, and incidents are extremely rare.”

Kurosawa was also reminded of this, but considering the amusement park trip today, they had to fully enjoy it, so he reassured them.

“Waah—!”

At that moment, the roller coaster on the track emitted a howl-like sound of ghosts and wolves.

In fact, as they approached, this kind of sound had been incessant.

Facing the high-flying coaster, no one could contain themselves; everyone would scream.

Before long, some visitors descended from the roller coaster, all of them sitting on the side with weakened bodies. Some even sat on the ground, seemingly as if their life force had burned out.

“Oh, Mom…”

Even more surprisingly, some people cried, trembling while hugging a pillar.

“How about trying other attractions?”

Seeing this scene, Ninomiya adjusted her glasses once again, and her arms were trembling.

“Since we’re here… it’s our turn.”

Seeing her apprehension, Kurosawa, although afraid himself, still gritted his teeth and went on.

Although completing the date mission was not mandatory, he still wanted to give it his best. After all, the skills and abilities rewarded by the system were highly effective. In addition, if he wanted to have a perfect date and create a memorable memory, he couldn’t just go through the motions.

Soon, they entered the facility.

“Before riding the roller coaster, please put your phones, glasses, bags, scarves, umbrellas, and other personal items in the locker.”

A staff member approached and explained.

During the roller coaster ride, due to high-speed travel and 360-degree rotation, personal items could easily cause accidents.

Without protesting, the three of them followed the instructions and placed their phones and other items in the same locker.

“Wish you a smooth journey!”

After helping them onto the roller coaster and securing the safety measures, the staff member left the track, bowing.

Unlike ordinary elongated roller coasters, the high-flying coaster they chose was a short-flying coaster.

The high-flying coaster had six cars in total, with each car accommodating eight people. They were divided into 2 rows, with 4 people in each row.

In choosing seats, Kurosawa sat on the right, separating himself from a male passenger, while Ninomiya sat on his left.

Seated and waiting for the ride to start, Ninomiya, who had removed her glasses, closed her eyes and took deep breaths.

“Rumble!” With the sound, the roller coaster officially started.

Their bodies were fixed in place but kept moving forward involuntarily, creating a strong sense of excitement.

The next moment, the roller coaster reached the first slope and began to accelerate.

With the tilt of the angle, other passengers in the same queue couldn’t help but scream.

Kurosawwa remained relatively calm because it was just the beginning, and it wasn’t too thrilling yet. He turned his head to look at the people beside him.

Ninomiya kept her eyes tightly closed, her lips, adorned with lipstick, pressed together tightly, as if she was restraining herself from making any sound, looking nervous.

Unlike any other moment before, Kurosawa, for the first time, had the opportunity to calmly observe her.

So beautiful…

Even without glasses and with a bit of nervousness, with her eyes tightly closed, Kurosawa still found her especially beautiful.

As the coaster went through several slopes, the short-flying coaster began to climb to the world’s highest track.

“Ah…”

With the ascent, Ninomiya felt a sensation of weightlessness in her body and couldn’t help but make a sound.

However, before she could let out a soprano scream, someone held her hand.

Ninomiya noticed this and, upon opening her eyes, met a pair of calm and composed, yet somewhat gentle, black eyes.

That gentle gaze seemed to say, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”

Holding her hand was a large and warm one, it was as if it could stabilize her both physically and mentally, giving her a sense of security.
