40: The Sword of Flame
Capturing a connection to everyone's idol. A portable disguise? Putting up with spies!
'Wow... they are just great at hiding', Shogo thought sarcastically, 'It's a wonder why I haven't asked them to also to be spies!'
A brick wall cloth, peeking out of the sewer, one even brought a camera. The Goggles Gang was obviously very devoted to their leader. Even the new one, Masayoshi-kun.
So devoted that they decided to make sure every moment of their leader's first date with Hanshin's most popular pop idol was memorable and went without any trouble.
"Oh, Primera-chan! She's looks happy... Primera-chan is the greatest!" sniffed two people similtaneously.
"Shogo-san is so cool..." sniffed Masayoshi.
Was one of them weeping? And were those two of Primera's fans?
"Shogo-kun! What should we do now?"
"Huh?" Shogo said absently, "Why don't you think of something?"
Primera continued to babble on about all the nice things they could do on their date while he continued to... not pay attention.
"Hey, you guys want an apple?"
"Wah! What are you doing here?"
"Oooh, I want one, I'm hungry..."
The grocer was here too? This was too much...
"Hey, man, how do you balance an apple on your head like that?"
"Ow... stop it! If Shogo-san finds out we're spying on him, he'll get really mad!"
'Too late,' Shogo thought.
"Shogo-kun!"
"Eh? What?"
Primera grabbed his arm as he glanced at the poorly hidden Goggles Gang out of the corner of his eye.
"I want to see a movie!"
"Eh? Oh, sure... why not?"
"They make a great couple, don't you think?"
"Of course! Shogo-san is the coolest guy in Hanshin!"
Well, maybe he could forgive them this time.
