"Is this the 'very interesting facility' you mentioned?"
"Yeah, don't you think it's exciting? Many people screamed as they slid down from here just now. It must be very thrilling."
"That's true, but I feel like our posture is very problematic. Why do you want me to lie on top of you? Are you taking advantage of me?"
Inaba Tsukiyo was brought to this slide-like play facility by Nia, but this girl wasn't planning to go one by one. Instead, she had Inaba Tsukiyo lie on top of her, and they would slide down together.
Because the slide was only wide enough for one person, in order to slide down smoothly, Inaba Tsukiyo's posture, lying on top of Nia, was inevitably a bit ambiguous.
Moreover, her face and Nia's were very close, so close that they could clearly feel each other's breath.
"No, I'm not! Aren't you holding me too? Besides, we're both girls, so there's no such thing as taking advantage."
Nia insisted she wouldn't admit her true thoughts, although she did have the idea of taking advantage of Inaba Tsukiyo. But her main goal was to see how Inaba Tsukiyo would react next.
However… this touch, this scent, Nia's face turned pink.
She considered herself to have no strange hobbies, but after spending a long time with Inaba Tsukiyo, she found herself developing in a strange direction.
Does this girl have some strange charm? How odd. When did she get addicted to Inaba Tsukiyo's poison?
Despite the staff's strong dissuasion, Nia, seizing a moment when no one was looking, hugged Inaba Tsukiyo and jumped onto the slide's entrance, scaring the staff pale.
The moment they jumped into the entrance, Inaba Tsukiyo felt the surrounding scenery receding at an extremely fast pace.
Because of the weight of two people, the descent speed was much faster, but this unusual exhilarating feeling made both Inaba Tsukiyo and Nia burst into joyful laughter.
[Thump!]
Inaba Tsukiyo and Nia plunged heavily into the water. Since the pool wasn't deep, they quickly stood up.
Nia glared at the staff who wanted to help them up, then hugged Inaba Tsukiyo and walked towards the edge of the pool.
As they moved, Nia clearly felt unfriendly gazes from around them—waves of anger from single people.
There were already so few quality resources, and now there was a tendency for internal consumption? This was truly infuriating.
And it was taken over before this resource even fully developed! Darn it! Don't they know that lolis are a rare resource! And such a high-quality loli at that!
Nia, as if declaring ownership, tightly wrapped her arms around Inaba Tsukiyo's slender waist, rolling her eyes at those around them who were watching, as if to say, 'She's mine; you single people can only watch enviously from the sidelines.'
The moment they returned to shore, Inaba Tsukiyo pulled away from Nia's embrace and, holding her hand, darted to the side.
Although a few people secretly followed, she didn't want to be gawked at by a crowd, and those people's gazes were very strange, filled with malice.
Just as Inaba Tsukiyo was considering whether to let this pool be stained red, some staff members persuaded those who had followed to leave.
It seemed these people were likely Kotori's staff. Perhaps because Kotori and Shiori were also playing here, these people came to be responsible for Shiori's safety.
They just didn't expect to see Inaba Tsukiyo and the others here. To prevent any unexpected factors from disrupting Shiori and Kotori's date, these people had to do everything possible to stop incidents from happening.
Because she was going swimming, Shiori couldn't wear a Boy's swimsuit. Shiori, wearing a swimsuit suitable for her, was playing in the water with Kotori.
However, Kotori seemed unable to swim. Her face looked very bad because she couldn't touch the bottom.
Like an octopus, Kotori clung tightly to Shiori, looking at the water with some fear.
Shiori was a bit surprised by Kotori's reaction. She hadn't expected Kotori, with her black ribbons, to show such an expression. It was truly unexpected.
But this was more like her most adorable little sister, the Itsuka Kotori who loved to act spoiled and made her worry.
Shiori took Kotori to play on other amusement facilities, but upon seeing Inaba Tsukiyo and Kurumi, Kotori's expression turned very sour.
"Nightmare, Inaba Tsukiyo… Why are you here?"
