I'm in Tokyo, caught in the clutches of the demon princess.

"Others get stupid from reading too much, but Youxiang, you're getting smarter the more you read."

Yuka Ikeda gave a soft hum:

"Hmph, there is a fundamental difference between studying for the sake of studying and studying because you want to study. Studying is a painful thing for others, but it is completely different for me."

As he spoke, he handed the Pikachu plush toy to Kazesawa with both hands.

"For you."

Feng Zejian paused for a moment, then took the Pikachu plush toy, which was big enough to be used as a pillow, with both hands.

"Was it originally for me?"

"Otherwise, do you see me paying attention to these things normally?"

Feng Zejian happily patted Pikachu's head.

“When I get back, I will enshrine the sacred object that Yu Xiang gave me and burn incense and make offerings to it every day.”

Yuka Ikeda covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

"Is it really that exaggerated?"

Feng Zejian looked at the Pikachu in his arms with a bitter expression.

"Honestly, not counting the reciprocal gift-giving, this is the first time I've ever received a gift."

Yuka Ikeda remained silent.

Feng Ze forced a smile.

"Let's continue. It's a rare opportunity to spend time with Yuka, so let's not waste our time and energy on useless things."

Kazesawa and Ikeda Yuka strolled along the way.

These cosplayers are very confident, and some are even performing otaku dances on stage.

Perhaps they weren't cosplayers, but rather an underground idol group dressed in cosplay costumes, with many fans who had come specifically to see them, dancing a crazy support dance with glow sticks in the background.

In Feng Zejian's eyes, this only serves the purpose of shaking hands a little longer at the fan appreciation event, unless they are fans of actors who are called teachers.

Moreover, there are many underground idol groups in Japan, but very few of them succeed, and many die before they even begin. The vast majority of them are just doing it out of love.

They won't have many fans.

The pay for these kinds of commercial performances is pitifully low, or even nonexistent.

The goal is to build popularity and attract more people to pay attention to the group.

As they walked, Kazesawa and Ikeda Yuka saw a woman cosplaying as a queen, with a dog leash in her hand and a person dressed as a dog on all fours at the end of the leash.

Many absurd but real things happen here, but Feng Zejian neither understands nor supports them.

The most popular stall here is definitely the one selling lucky bags.

Although many people knew that there wouldn't be anything too valuable inside, they were all gambling addicts.

Most of the items inside are colored paper book covers, and there are also a few figurines and souvenirs.

It's mainly about figurines.

Unpopular items may be worthless, so it's normal for those people to make a small profit.

"Yuxiang, let's each pick two and go over there to open them and see how they are."

"Ah."

The two chose four lucky bags and spent 20,000 yuan.

Kazema handed the Pikachu plush toy to Ikeda Yuka and rubbed his hands together.

They started opening the lucky bags.

Feng Zejian ignored the small, useless items in the lucky bag and took out the figurine directly.

Not particularly popular, but not exactly obscure either, this is a figure of Esdeath from Akame ga Kill!

Next, when they took out the figures, Kazesawa was a little embarrassed, and Ikeda Yuka also blushed.

This is a Boa Hancock figure from One Piece, available in a version where you can wear clothes or not, and the base also has special effects.

These two lucky bags were only a small profit.

Feng Zejian retrieved the doll.

"You open it, let's see your luck."

Yuka Ikeda adjusted her emotions and rubbed her hands together, just like Kazesawa.

The first lucky bag contained a figure of Momonosuke from One Piece.

Moreover, it's the kind with very poor workmanship.

There's no need to go into too much detail about a character that everyone hates.

Yuka Ikeda asked expectantly, "Is this okay?"

He forced a smile amidst the wind and rain.

"Congratulations, you've drawn the worst possible fortune, it's worthless."

"Really? This cute little thing is such a waste of money."

Kazema laughed; as expected, she still didn't know how hateful Momonosuke was.

Yuka Ikeda composed herself and began to open a lucky bag.

Yuka Ikeda reached in and touched it, gradually frowning.

"It seems this lucky bag doesn't contain any figurines."

Feng Zejian raised an eyebrow and walked over to his side.

"Are you sure? Feel it again carefully."

Yuka Ikeda touched it again.

"Indeed, there are no figurines, only this."

As he spoke, he took out a belt.

Feng Zejian wiped his face.

"Put this thing down and touch it again."

Yuka Ikeda reached in again and soon pulled out another red beetle.

Wow, this lucky bag is really full of good stuff!

Feng Zejian poured out all the lucky bags.

There was a note inside.

Congratulations on selecting this figure-free lucky bag! Inside is the grand prize of this event: a Kabuto CS and M belt without a box. Although it's unboxed, it's in 99% new condition and has only been opened.

Feng Zejian was extremely excited.

Yuka Ikeda was puzzled.

"Did you find something good?"

"Of course, let me put it on you and let you try it out."

"Huh? What does that mean."

"Never mind that, I'll put it on you."

Kazesawa tied the Kabuto belt around Ikeda Yuka's waist.

He then shoved the Kabuto King Battle Device into Yuka Ikeda's hand.

"I'll teach you step by step."

Kazesawa personally taught Ikeda Yuka the transformation moves and lines.

Yuka Ikeda didn't understand, but she did as she was told. Seeing the smile on Kazesawa's face, she was happy too.

She also became completely absorbed in the game.

As long as everything is harmonious and peaceful, I'll be happy no matter what I do.

The two sold the figures directly at the comic convention, keeping only the Kabuto belt and the Pikachu plushie.

It was already afternoon, and the two had dinner at a Chinese restaurant.

Kazesawa and Ikeda Yuka walked through the department store, bought two cups of milk tea, and sat in the movie theater waiting area, waiting for their tickets to be checked.

Because it's an art film and there wasn't much publicity, there weren't many people in the waiting area.

Chapter 106 My Love Will Never Be Like This

Tickets were checked ten minutes early for the movie, and the two of them bought a bucket of popcorn and two cups of Coke.

Upon entering the cinema, the two found their seats and sat down, and the others gradually took their places as well.

Although it was the first day of the premiere, only a third of the seats were occupied until the first fifteen minutes of the film, due to the subject matter and the lead actors.

Yuka Ikeda looked at the female lead on the big screen.

The first half hour of inner monologue was so real that others didn't find it verbose.

Everyone is guessing who the male lead will be.

Until Aoi, played by Kazesawa, appeared.

Yuka Ikeda excitedly shook Kazesawa's arm.

As the story unfolds, the lives of the two become intertwined, and love among ordinary people is always fraught with many entanglements.

Feng Zejian stepped out of his role as an actor and officially became a spectator.

Witnessing the love between the bird and the sunflower.

An injured bird landed on a sunflower blooming in the mud. The bird and the sunflower were only temporary companions. The sunflower wanted to be the bird's landing spot, which caused the sunflower to not receive enough attention and thus stop growing.

The bird knew it couldn't stay any longer, lest the sunflower be deprived of the sun it was meant to reach.

The birds kissed the sunflowers and returned to the sky, while the sunflowers struggled out of the mud, growing tall and able to bask in the sunlight as they wished.

Kazema looked at Ikeda Yuka beside him.

She didn't cry, but her pretty face was incredibly solemn and serious.

"My love will definitely not be like this."

While everyone else wept over the tragic love story of Bird and Sunflower, only Yuka Ikeda was reflecting on her pain.

Seriously, even watching a movie makes me shine.

The audience was in low spirits after watching the movie, so no one noticed that the male lead was there. Kazesawa and Ikeda Yuka left the movie theater.

Yuka Ikeda looked at the promotional poster for Bird and Aoi.

It's supposed to be a promotional poster, but it's actually just an oil painting: a bird with broken wings lands on a sunflower that was born in the silt of a deep ditch.

From the perspective of art films, the artistic conception of this poster is indeed unique.

It stands out among films in this genre.

"What do we do next?"

"I don't know, anywhere is fine as long as I don't go home right now."

Feng Zejian nodded.

The two walked down a street lit by neon lights.

At this point, Yuka Ikeda had already moved beyond the sadness of the movie.

Whether it was an illusion or not, Kazesawa felt that Ikeda Yuka's steps were much lighter.

This allowed her to overtake Kazema and come in front of her, walking under a street lamp. Ikeda Yuka turned around, and the light shone on Ikeda Yuka like a spotlight.

Yuka Ikeda smiled brightly, which stunned Kazesawa.

It was a smile she had never had before, or rather, a smile she had never seen before.
