Chapter Index

    I was resting in a daze, watching many people pass by at the crosswalk.

    As it is a famous tourist destination, the proportion of foreigners was high.

    At the same time, my attention was drawn to Koreans, who make up a high proportion of foreigners.

    “…Is it because I’m Korean?”

    could be distinguished.

    Strangely enough, Koreans dressed differently.

    Should I say it’s something I know well about fashion?

    As I was relaxing and looking out the window, someone knocked on my room.

    When I opened the door, Hannah was standing there smiling brightly.

    “I’m here.”

    “Ah.”

    Come to think of it, the place these two people are is only on the women-only floor.

    Anyone could enter the room I would be staying in.

    Hannah seemed to come up quickly, wondering what I was doing.

    “What about Jian?”

    “Oh, I said I would fix my clothes and makeup…”

    “…Really?”

    I nodded roughly and asked Hannah about her next schedule.

    “I think I will only be near the accommodation today.”

    As it was the first day, Hannah, who traveled often, was tired as well, so she stretched out a little and said,

    It’s close to the accommodation.

    Since it was a little after lunch, I was worried that that alone would be enough to fill the day’s schedule.

    Listening to Hannah seemed to be enough.

    I confidently said that I had everything from shopping to entertainment.

    It’s not a tourist destination for nothing.

    “So what do you think?”

    “Huh? What?”

    When I answered the sudden question, he asked with a subtle smile.

    “Jian, do you like it?”

    “Ah…”

    If I had to ask whether I liked it or not, I was closer to liking it.

    What’s worse is that they’re trying to conquer it even though it’s not a quest.

    When I nodded lightly, Hannah also smiled.

    “Then I’m glad. I’ll contact you.”

    With those words, Hannah went outside.

    Jian’s strategy was actually not difficult.

    As long as Hannah helps a little, things will go smoothly.

    So I decided to focus on traveling first.

    I changed into clothes that were more comfortable for walking around and checked the yen in my wallet.

    No matter where I go or what I do, I have enough money exchanged to not have a shortage.

    [Come down to the first floor.]

    After receiving the message, I slowly went down to the first floor and saw two people who were still attracting attention everywhere.

    To be honest, these two people were burdensome as partners for my first trip.

    It felt good to feel people’s envious looks.

    It seemed like it would be difficult to feel that kind of leisurely enjoyment when I was with two people.

    “Oppa, are you here?”

    As soon as they were no longer alone, Hannah began to talk more comfortably.

    The acting was skillful.

    Well, he probably hid his dark intentions and brought Jian to me.

    We decided to eat first.

    We headed to a restaurant that we had looked into before coming on the trip.

    But-

    “People…”

    “Let’s go to other places too.”

    People were standing in a long line, befitting the title of a delicious restaurant.

    I would have waited if I could, but after watching for about 5 minutes, it seemed difficult to wait as the line did not get shorter easily.

    Hannah moved quickly, saying she had looked into several places in preparation for situations like this.

    But, the next place, and the next place too.

    There was still a long line in front of the restaurant’s door.

    “…”

    “…”

    Then, the two people quickly lost their words after running out of a list of stores they had slowly recognized.

    No, it didn’t seem like that was the only reason.

    “Umm… Is it a little hot?”

    Hanna and Jian, as well as the people passing by, looked relatively scantily clad.

    Now that I think about it, I heard that the weather is slowly getting warmer.

    Actually, after learning martial arts, I became relatively strong in heat and cold, so I didn’t really feel hot, but the situation for the two people was different.

    I keep walking, I feel tired from the first day, and the weather doesn’t cooperate.

    He looked a little tired.

    Eventually we went into a nearby ramen restaurant.

    There were a few customers, but it didn’t matter because there was no waiting line.

    When I entered the door, they asked how many employees there were, and I naturally answered that there were three.

    After proving that I could use Japanese, conversations and orders naturally became my responsibility.

    The taste of the ramen that came out after ordering was like that.

    What can I say, I planned it.

    It makes you wonder if they made it this way to sell drinks or alcohol.

    If that was the goal, at least we can say that it worked well.

    Because I felt like I was possessed, I ordered 3 drinks.

    After drinking the drinks that were served, our one-liners were all similar.

    The drink was really delicious.

    The salty taste of ramen and the drink were violent to my dry mouth due to the heat.

    “What are you going to do after this?”

    “Hannah and I are going shopping.”

    Jian drew a line and spoke as if he had a different schedule from mine.

    But I didn’t want to join them shopping today either.

    I don’t think I’d be able to enjoy it properly if I followed them on their shopping spree, and since I came all the way to Japan, I wanted to enjoy Japan freely.

    “Really? See you later then.”

    “Ah…”

    Hannah actually looked at me with regret, but the trip doesn’t end today.

    After finishing our meal, we decided to split up and spend some time on our own.

    Certainly, after breaking up with the two people, the trip became relatively more pleasant.

    There wasn’t anything that wasn’t particularly comfortable when walking around with the two of them, but I felt at ease just because those burdensome gazes were gone.

    Only then did the surrounding scenes slowly come into view.

    Even the signs written in Japanese and the people passing by.

    Then, I occasionally saw signs that felt different from Korea.

    Stores related to animation or cosplay were like this,

    That was the case with the signs that clearly exuded the scent of 19+.

    “In a place like this?”

    It was surprising how calm they were between restaurants.

    The name of the store is Mirror Room.

    I don’t know what the place is doing, but the woman on the sign and the obscenely curved heart make it not seem like a decent store.

    I entered as if possessed.

    And I could immediately tell what kind of feeling this store had.

    As soon as I entered, I was ushered into a small room.

    The room was small, but big enough to stretch out both legs, and there was glass in the front.

    And beyond the glass, there was a large space, and several women could be seen inside the space.

    Women wearing clothes of various concepts.

    In reality, the women were talking among themselves as if they couldn’t see anything.

    “You can nominate and place your order here.”

    The woman who guided me while saying that handed me something that looked like a menu and pointed to something that looked like a receiver.

    The menu had the name of the woman to nominate and the things she could order.

    “…huh…”

    It was a more blatant store than I expected.

    It’s a bit too much for being in the middle of a downtown area.

    While thinking that, I was slowly looking at the women beyond the glass window.

    Among them, I saw a woman who looked somewhat passive.

    A seemingly passive woman.

    I picked up the phone and called.

    [#14, I understand.]

    The named woman looked at us in surprise.

    Of course, since I couldn’t see the inside, I couldn’t make eye contact, but I could see that the woman was happy.

    The woman came in front of the glass and whispered to me, who I couldn’t see.

    “Thank you for nominating me, you can ask me anything…”

    I felt like I could spend my time meaningfully.

    ***

    “Phew…”

    “Let’s rest over there.”

    Jian spoke to himself.

    The feeling of fatigue was clearly visible on his face.

    He looked at Jian and shook his head.

    Was this unexpected?

    The biggest reason why their trip has been relatively smooth so far was none other than Seonghan.

    Not only was it possible to use Japanese fluently, but Seonghan’s appearance also played a role.

    To put it in a good way, it was like a bodyguard, but in a bad way, because of its scary appearance, men did not dare to come near them and only watched from afar.

    However, after Seonghan disappeared, many men suddenly started approaching them.

    Not only did they ask for their number and take photos of them as they pleased, but even the men who were soliciting customers followed them around very persistently.

    Even at the department store I went into to do some shopping, I had to leave early because the employees were so annoying that they started talking to me.

    And now, having quickly exhausted their stamina, they found themselves at a cafe.

    “Ha…”

    I sighed again.

    To be honest, I hope Jian falls before my eyes as soon as possible.

    Then we can satisfy Seonghan together.

    I knew that Jian hated men.

    But that was no problem in front of Seonghan.

    Even I, who was frigid, lost my face and clung to Seonghan’s arms.

    Jian is probably not much different.

    In the end-

    “What are you thinking?”

    “Yeah… I was wondering what my brother was doing.”

    I was really curious.

    What are you doing right now?

    Maybe he’s already found another woman and is enjoying it.

    Now that Seonghan had seen himself and Jian, he couldn’t be at ease, even though most women wouldn’t be offended by their looks.

    “Ha, well… it was easier when I had a boyfriend…”

    When he brought up Seonghan’s story, Jian reluctantly admitted it.

    Although he lowered his head as if his pride was hurt, it was admirable to see him acknowledge Seonghan.

    “Then let’s go together tomorrow.”

    “…Okay.”

    Jian reluctantly nodded.
