Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 422 A flat ending
The third day of Tsugao Festival.

Prefectural Tsuga, Gymnasium.

On the stage, the performance of the light music department was coming to an end. Naruse in the audience lowered his head and looked at the performance list in his hand. There were no other programs behind him.

"It started with a bang, but ended very dull, and there weren't even many viewers."

The student council president sitting next to him looked at the stage without looking at him, "This is our Tsudaka Festival."

"Ah."

"Actually, my initial idea was to start by changing this top-heavy situation."

Fumiko Yoshioka continued: "But it is too difficult to implement. Whether it is the school or the city hall, the eyes are always on the lantern parade the day before... What's more important is that I did not break The talent to break old rules and plan a brand new Tsudaka Festival.”

Naruse was silent for a moment and then said, "Actually, from the very beginning, I felt that the next two days of the Tsudaka Festival were just for making up the numbers."

Fumiko Yoshioka smiled and said, "Everyone feels the same way."

"The main reason is because the second half of the Tsudaka Festival overlaps with the cultural festival next semester, and everyone's preparations are focused on the lantern parade. The lack of enthusiasm naturally makes it more perfunctory," Naruse said.

The student council president looked over, "Then Naruse-san, do you have any solution?"

"Cancel the next two days of activities, shorten the Tsudaka Festival to one day, or simply merge the Tsudaka Festival with the Cultural Festival."

"No matter which plan it is, the school will probably be happy with it. But for the students, it just means that they don't have to go to school for a few days..."

She laughed, "I dare say, whoever dares to raise this point will be despised by the entire school."

Of course, Naruse also understood that he was one of the students who was not happy to have his vacation shortened, so he was just talking.

The two continued to watch the performance on the stage. The lead singer of the light music section sang the song he composed at the top of his lungs. The other teammates beside him and behind him played hard, and everyone was sweating profusely.

After watching for a while, Fumiko Yoshioka spoke again.

"The Tsudaka Festival is over, and I can finally take a break... I have been in the student union for almost three years, and it's time to take a break."

Naruse turned around, "Senior, are you ready to let go?"

"Almost, this semester is already over."

"After the summer vacation, there will be a cultural festival."

The student council president also looked over and smiled at him: "Don't worry, the student council and I will never forget what we promised Naruse-san."

He nodded and didn't say much.

"anyway……"

"Not interested in."

"...I haven't said what it is."

"I guess senior wants me to join the student union."

Fumiko Yoshioka looked at him with burning eyes, not hiding her admiration.

"Naruse-san and the student council are really suitable, don't you think?"

"Maybe, but the biggest problem is that I have no interest. Senior sister should understand that I agreed to join the executive committee to help this time, firstly to get help from the student union at the cultural festival, and secondly because the handicraft club is also the sponsor Fang Zhi, I am helping Shangzi."

"Konaka-san will be retiring from the club when she reaches third grade. What if I invite her to join the student council?" the student council president suddenly asked.

"..."

Naruse turned to look at her, "Senior, please give us, the star-crossed couple, some private time."

Fumiko Yoshioka laughed and never mentioned this matter again.

On the stage, the performance of the light music department finally came to an end.

The lead singer kept playing high notes in the second half of the performance, making his voice hoarse. He was still greeting the dissatisfied audience in both rows of the stage.

"I love you! Everyone - see you at the cultural festival!"

Then she saw the tall handsome guy sitting in the first row, stood up and applauded her.

Like her so much?
"Wait a minute, it's not over yet - now you can shake hands with the lead singer! You can also sign autographs! You can also get a CD we burned for free!"

Naruse turned to look at the other executive members who had been waiting behind him, "Drag her down."

"Yes, Chairman!"

With a grand opening and a dull ending, the three-day Tsudaka Festival has come to an end.

Naruse and the people from the executive committee took the time to clean up the stage. Before long, all grades and classes gathered in the gymnasium to participate in the closing ceremony.

Representatives of each group of the executive committee also stood on the stage with Naruse, looking at the back of the principal in front of the microphone.

"150 years ago, it was also in this place that the ancestors of Jingao Prefecture..."

After hearing a few words, Morijian tilted his head and said, "Isn't this what was said at the opening ceremony? Who wrote Mr. Principal's speech?"

"How do I know... Assistant to the principal? It wasn't written by us anyway."

Naruse refused to accept the unfounded charges.

In the event schedule, the executive committee allocated half an hour for the closing ceremony, and the principal’s speech lasted about 15 minutes and ended.

Naruse didn't intend to force it to continue for half an hour. Anyway, the principal had already said what needed to be said.

"Then, I declare that the 1th Tsudaka Festival has come to an end."

The students in the lower three grades burst into cheers for the first time after gathering.

it is finally over……

Raising his gaze and looking at the steel structure on top of the gymnasium, Naruse breathed a sigh of relief.

...By the way, one more thing.

"From five to eight o'clock, there will be a night festival on the playground. Students who are interested can participate on their own."

The so-called night festival is a bonfire party - there is only a bonfire, no food or drink is provided, and the only things used to burn are the leftovers from making lanterns.The Go Night Festival was already the responsibility of the student council. Naruse just informed the student council president that he was not going to participate.

The students in the audience left one after another, and Naruse also took the microphone stand and returned to the backstage.

Looking at the executive members who had worked together for more than ten days, although he felt a little emotional, he had nothing special to say.

"Thanks for your hard work."

"Thanks for your hard work!"

"Let's all disperse as well."

The committee members left one after another, but Morimi stayed.

"It's over."

"Ah."

"Are you going to the Houye Festival?"

"No. It's just a group of people gathering around to light a fire. Are you interested?"

"If you can pick me up on your motorcycle, I wouldn't mind staying at school for a little longer."

"forget it."

Morimi just mentioned it casually and didn't say much.

"Go back to the classroom?"

"Ah."

After leaving the backstage, Hikari Takigawa, who had not appeared for a long time, walked in from the outside.

"Where were you just now? You didn't even attend the closing ceremony." Naruse asked.

"Activity room, I thought you would come back again!"

"Everything is done, what are you going to do back there? Go back to the classroom."

"Okay." Hikaru Takigawa followed the two of them, "Do you want to participate in the Houye Festival?"

Naruse glanced at Morimi, and she shook her head: "The Houye Festival is not interesting."

"Well...you can play with fire."

"Do you want to light up the school?"

"That's not enough."

Tomorrow is Tuesday, but as compensation for the Tsudaka Festival taking up a rest day, we will have a day off.

And there are only a few days left in this semester.

"Want to come to my house?" Morimi said suddenly.

Naruse and Takigawa Hikaru turned around, and she continued: "I can also build a bonfire in my yard and hold a night festival with only a few of us participating."

"Okay!" Hikaru Takigawa responded immediately and looked at Naruse again.

"I don't care." He said, "Ask Shangzi."

"it is good."

Takigawa Hikaru took out his mobile phone and suddenly thought of something again. He held the phone and did not send the message.

Morimi glanced at her and found that she was looking at him too.

"..."

Returning to the main building, Naruse walked up the stairs and turned the corner, only to realize that the two of them had not followed him.

"Harumi, go up first, Kazuha and I will go to the bathroom."

"Ah."

Watching his figure disappear, Takigawa Hikaru looked at Morimi and said, "Let's go."

She followed, "Guang pulled me, what do you want to say?"

"Is Kazuye not planning to do anything?"

"Don't you know what I want to do...you mean today?"

Takigawa Hikaru looked back at her, "Yeah."

"Don't worry, it's just a normal gathering."

Morimi responded to her gaze with a direct gaze, "I am also very tired during this period. At least today, I have no plans."

Takigawa Hikaru was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled: "I believe in Kazuyo."

Morimi shook his head, "It's too fake..."

"It's true."

She walked forward, but she didn't follow immediately.

"When I really plan to do something, I will give Hikaru time to escape. As long as you pretend not to see it, you will never see it."

"..."

Hikaru Takigawa stopped, frowned deeply, and his arm was suddenly held.

Morimi dragged her and continued forward.

"I always believe in the light."

　Thanks to the book friends [Nether Light] and [Salary Star] leaders, there will be more.
