Chapter 44 - Large Matryoshka Doll

[AKIBA STATION!]

[AKIBA STATION!]

Everyone heard the announcement and came out of the train. They went out of the station and saw a very large building with a lot of people around.

"So this is Tokyo?" Chika said with amazement.

"I can feel it... The power of this city of sin," Yoshino said while having two fingers covering her eyes.

"This is very good, zura!" Hanamaru said while eating bread with a happy expression.

"You're destroying the mood!" Yoshino complained to her.

"...."

Everyone looked at them with speechless expressions.

They are a group of the school idol group from Uranohoshi Girls' High School, Aquors. They were invited to perform at the Akiba Dome tomorrow and decided to go to Tokyo now. They were coming from a small city and it was their first time to come here except Riko who was living in Tokyo before.

The scenery of Tokyo was a bit overwhelming for them. They could see a lot of people in this place when in their home there were only a few people there.

"Hey, see that isn't it a poster of a school idol?" Chika said while pointing at the screen of the building.

"Just calm down, if we're causing a ruckus, people will know that we're from the country," You said.

"Th - That's true," Ruby nodded.

"The fallen angel Yohane has landed in Tokyo, the city of sin!" Yoshiko said.

Chika nodded while ignoring Yoshiko. She thought for a bit and needed to be natural since she didn't want people to know that they were coming from the countryside, "That's true, Harajuku is always like this! It's always crowded!" She closed her mouth with her hand trying to be elegant and started to laugh.

Everyone who saw her couldn't help but sweatdrop.

"Chika-chan..."

"This is Akiba...."

"..."

"Tee-hee!"

Brando and Yui had gone out together and decided to go to Akiba since that place sold the thing that they needed.

Brando thought that he needed something with more innovation since he felt that his sleep eye mask was out of fashion. He knew that there were more trendy ones and ones that gave him more camouflage.

"Dio, isn't this good?" Yui said and showed him something.

"This is?" Brando saw something incredible. He held this sleep eye mask with shaking hands since it was just too amazing. He could see the detail from the design of the eyes that made him able to sleep without anyone even noticing. He noticed the love from the creator of this sleep eye mask that wanted to sleep even though it wasn't the time for sleep. He looked at it and frowned, "This is a sticker?" He noticed that he needed to stick it in his eyes.

"It should be," Yui nodded and asked, "Do you want to buy it?"

"Of course," Brando nodded without hesitation. He bought ten sets of sticker eyes that could make him sleep without anyone noticing.

"..."

Yui smiled when he saw him buy an eye mask sticker.

Brando went back to her and said, "Let's go, you want to buy the matryoshka doll, right?"

Yui nodded in response.

Brando took her hand naturally and went out together.

Both of them went out together and stopped to buy a crepe on the stall on the street. They continued to move around until Yui stopped.

"What's wrong?" Brando turned and followed her gaze. He saw a very large matryoshka doll on the stage. He saw that it was a singing competition and that matryoshka doll was one of the prizes for that competition. He was wondering who wanted a stupid thing such as a matryoshka doll until he realized that it was the girl beside him, "Do you want that?"

Yui nodded in response and sighed, "But I can't sing." She looked at him with a hopeful expression.

"..."

Brando was speechless and could tell that she wanted him to enter that competition. He thought for a bit and said, "I'm not sure that I can win though."

"It's okay, just try it, the competition is about an old song, aren't you good with that?" Yui said.

"..."

Brando saw that the matryoshka doll wasn't the main prize and thought for a bit that it might be possible to win it. He nodded and said, "Alright, I will register, but don't get your hope ups."

"Alright," Yui nodded.

Both of them went to the registration booth.

"Hello, is there something that I can help with?" The staff asked.

"I want to register," Brando said.

"Sure, tell me your name and the song that you will sing," the staff nodded and said, "For your information, the only song that you can sing is only an old song, you cannot a song that is still booming and in trend right now."

"Can you give me an example?" Brando asked.

"Hmm, for example, The Battles, Michael Jackson, and the singer and band during that era," the staff said.

Brando nodded and wrote the singer and the title of the song that he would sing.

"Frank Sinatra?" Yui was curious and looked at him.

"Oh, you have quite a good choice," the staff nodded and looked at Yui, "Is it for this lady?"

"...."

"So is the registration done?" Brando asked and didn't want to answer him.

"Yeah, sure, we will call your name when it is your time," the staff nodded.

"Alright," Brando nodded.

"What kind of song will you sing?" Yui asked.

Brando also understood that unless someone loved music it would be hard to know that name. He smiled and said, "You will hear it soon." He thought for a bit and asked, "How is your English?"

"It's good," Yui nodded and said, "Don't worry, I can understand them."

"Let's sit in the front seat, I want to watch the show closer," Brando said, but he wanted her to watch him very closely later.

Yui nodded in response.

Both of them sat down together in the front seat together waiting for the show to start.

Chika looked around and asked, "What's that?"

Riko squinted her eyes and said, "It should be a singing competition."

Chika seemed very interested and said, "Let's watch it!"

"Eh? Do you understand English? The song that will sing is an old one too," Riko said.

"I can feel the dangerous energy from here, let's go watch it!" Yoshino said.

Riko looked at both of them and sighed until someone patted her shoulder.

"Don't mind," You said while smiling.

"..."

They sighed and went to watch together.
