Actually.
It didn't take long.
Soon, the two of them arrived at their destination.
Shibuya has a lot of people, even at this time. I guess that's why it's famous?
After parking the car and getting out onto the street.
Natsuhiko's hand was naturally grabbed by Mai.
"If, if we don't do this, we'll get separated."
Seeing Mai's shy face, Natsuhiko was a little surprised.
"What's with that reaction? Seriously..."
"...!?"
Because of Natsuhiko's unexpected reaction, Mai felt a little angry, but even so, she didn't pull her hand out of his.
"Ah, hahaha, that's right."
"I just thought my Mai would say 'It's just holding hands' or act like 'Do you want me to hold your hand?' That sudden shyness surprised me a bit."
He honestly admitted his mistake.
Mai turned her head sharply and glared at him.
"But, thinking about it, it's really helpful that Mai has this ability!"
"Huh?"
Mai was a little confused as to why he suddenly said that.
Natsuhiko pointed to the crowd next to them.
"If Mai were seen right now, the people around us would definitely say, 'Oh, isn't that the big star Sakurajima Mai?' And people nearby would ask for photos. The street would be full of your fans, and then Mai would be surrounded by a huge crowd."
Hearing the praise in Natsuhiko's words, Mai slightly raised her head, agreeing with him and forgiving Natsuhiko.
At this moment.
Two maturely dressed girls in blue coats and dresses ran over.
They went straight to Natsuhiko.
Speaking carefully, as if full of worry.
"Hey, are you an entertainer?"
[Encountering a girl on the street, Youth Points +1]
Natsuhiko gave a cheerful smile.
"Why do you ask?"
"Because you're really handsome and have a lot of charisma. Do you want to hang out with us today?"
[Encountering a girl on the street, Youth Points +1]
Hang out?
His walking hormones do attract this kind of attention.
If they didn't have so much of a street vibe, Natsuhiko probably wouldn't agree, right?
But the truth is that Mai tightly pulled him away, as if afraid he'd become a lost child, lost in the maze of desire.
So.
The two girls, unable to see Mai, only saw the handsome man wave at them kindly, saying goodbye until he left.
The two women then looked at each other, filled with regret.
"Stop releasing your excess hormones!"
Natsuhiko thought that Mai, saying those words, was incredibly cute. Natsuhiko's looks also made him stand out in a crowd.
Mai had to be careful!
...
Soon.
They arrived at what's known as "the busiest intersection in the world."
He knew about the intersection that's often shown in anime, but the crowds were really something else.
Holding hands, they slowly moved into a building nearby.
There were many fashionable girls in the building, frequently looking at him.
Natsuhiko was aware of his one-in-a-million looks.
"Hey, aren't that couple a handsome guy and a beautiful girl?"
Suddenly, surprised voices came from around them.
People started taking out their phones.
Natsuhiko understood that Mai's strong desire to be near him had taken effect. Clearly, her power was out of control.
Mai understood this as well.
Then they ran to the nearest store. When they came out again, Mai's uniform was gone, and she was wearing casual clothes.
Now she was sophisticated and elegant, but not too flashy, perfectly balanced. Even the "little rabbit" mask only covered her amazing looks, without ruining her style.
Natsuhiko followed Mai straight to the first store she liked.
When it came to fashion.
Natsuhiko didn't think he had any say.
He mostly wore uniforms.
Before it was Shuchiin Academy's, now it's Hoshinoumi's.
He did have casual clothes, but he had no confidence in saying he understood fashion. It was a much bigger unknown field than studying.
But.
Weren't they going to his future mother-in-law's house?
Even though he had the looks and the vibe down, Natsuhiko thought he should still pay attention. Mainly to make Mai happy.
Mai's excitement wasn't fake.
"The basics of fashion all come from fashion magazines."
She explained with excitement as she looked at clothes.
"Magazines mostly publish clothes that are trendy no matter what you choose, but when it comes to individuals, there are actually a lot of tricks to it."
She explained it simply and clearly.
Her eyebrows were raised.
She really seemed to be in a good mood.
Mai picked out a coat.
This was a brand store. Natsuhiko didn't know much about fashion trends. That's why he had a girlfriend who knew a lot about it. Clearly, he didn't need to worry about these things.
"Emm, this coat isn't good."
Mai shook her head.
"This shirt."
Mai shook her head X2.
"These pants."
"These shoes."
She shook her head
"You have to choose carefully!"
"Mai, just keep it simple."
"Simple? No, no, the thing about clothes is that you have to fully use your taste and experience to choose them, right? I don't think there's such a simple guide..."
Mai was full of energy.
"If you don't fully use your taste and experience, it's hard to tell what clothes are stylish. Fashion isn't something you can get familiar with overnight."
Natsuhiko nodded.
It really seemed like there was no way to argue in this situation.
Then.
Mai pointed to a mannequin: "Excuse me, bring me an outfit in this style."
"The outfits on the mannequins are carefully thought out by the store clerks who are confident in their fashion sense, to sell the clothes in the store as advertisements."
Natsuhiko felt like his intelligence was being insulted.
Was he such a useless idiot that he didn't even know that?
"Of course, only people with low skills do that. But I have very high skills. After buying a few things my way, you'll gradually get the hang of it, and Hiko will be able to choose his own style."
Looking at Mai, who was radiant.
Natsuhiko felt like he had made a very wrong decision.
Shopping?
Shopping with his girlfriend or buying clothes?
He must have been crazy to make that decision.
Natsuhiko was sure again that when it comes to buying clothes, every woman turns into a beast, no matter the world!
Right now.
He had officially become a clothes-trying-on helper, a bad one!.
