Shugo Chara: Be happy today too

Chapter 164 Town Meeting

——.

in the afternoon.

central Park.

Unexpectedly, Aoki Yasu's trip to the aquarium was canceled, so he rushed there early to help the housekeeper, Nadeshiko and Miya move things and arrange exhibits.

"Great, it's finally done!" Miya was very happy.

The housekeeper said cheerfully, "Thank you so much for your help."

"Next, we can start the charity sale." Nadeshiko clasped her hands together.

It felt similar to the charity sale in elementary school in her previous life... Aoki An looked around and saw many people like them setting up cloth stalls to display exhibits, as well as people setting up square umbrellas on the street and bringing in long tables to sell things.

The stalls had just been set up, so there weren't many people coming to buy things. It was only after the vendors set up their stalls and started to move around that the park gradually became popular.

Miye asked curiously, "Let's go and take a look too."

"It seems that some people are selling homemade food." Aoki An noticed that a family table not far away was filled with various sweets and drinks.

Hearing this, Miye immediately became excited: "I have to go and see, I have to see!"

"Well," Nadeshiko said to the housekeeper, "I'll trouble you with these things."

"Go ahead and don't worry, ladies." The housekeeper smiled kindly.

The three of them wandered around together, not wanting anything in particular, and basically bought food and drinks.

When he was about to go back, Qing Muan vaguely saw a familiar figure passing by: "Ya Meng?"

"What? Xiao Meng-chan is here too?" Miya came closer and looked forward. When she saw it, her eyes lit up: "It's really Xiao Meng-chan."

Nadeshiko waved over there and called out, "Amen!"

"Hmm? I seemed to hear Fuzi's voice just now..." Yameng was at a loss.

"Here, here!" Miye waved and shouted.

Yameng turned around and looked: "Miya?!"

——.

The stall.

Yameng was surprised and asked, "An-chan, Nadeshiko, Miya, and the housekeeper are here too?"

Aoki An waved to Yameng.

Miya chuckled twice playfully.

Ya Meng asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

"Speaking of what to do, of course I'm here to sell goods at the town association's charity sale." Nadeshiko curved her eyes and explained, "I'm helping the housekeeper with An-chan and Miya."

"Yes." Miya agreed happily.

Aoki An also nodded.

"That's right." The housekeeper smiled with narrowed eyes, "Collections from the charity sale."

"Hey——" Yameng was surprised to see a pile of items full of ancient Japanese atmosphere in front of the housekeeper.

Then, she saw the strange island doll that she saw when she visited Fujisaki's house.

Looking at it in broad daylight, the doll still exudes an ominous aura. Yameng is a little embarrassed: "What is this?"

"I don't know why this doll's hair slowly grew longer on its own," the housekeeper explained calmly.

But the calmer the housekeeper was, the weirder the puppet seemed.

Yameng screamed in fear: "Ah!——"

Aoki Yasu: ...As expected, you are very afraid of ghosts.

"Hey, hey!" Miya called out to Yameng, "Miya, there are exhibits here too!"

Yameng took a look and saw a pile of used dolls and toys on the stall.

Yameng: ...

Miya said sadly: "It's totally...unsellable."

Yameng complained: This is natural...

Then he looked at Aoki An and said, "Where's An-chan? What is An-chan planning to sell for charity?"

"The things we don't need at home have been donated. I came here to help." Qing Muan explained, and then asked the other party, "Where is Yameng?"

Nadeshiko continued, "Ameng-chan is here to buy something too?"

"Ah, no," Yameng smiled awkwardly, "I just came to find something."

Miya came over: "Looking for something?"

Looking for something...? Aoki Yasu looked puzzled. Could it be that something happened at the neighborhood association bazaar so far away from the school?

——.

In the woods near the venue.

Five or six stray cats gathered together. Ah Ye sat on one of the cats out of boredom. "Really? The cats are so noisy today. They can't even take a leisurely walk."

"But," Ah Ye put his hands on his pillow and looked at the lively scene in front of him, "It looks like there are a lot of goods, meow."

"Maybe even embryos will be for sale~ meow——" After saying that, Aye gave up his wild idea, "But this is unrealistic meow." There is no way that embryos can appear here so easily.

Meow?

It seemed like I saw a familiar figure.

Ah Ye stood up and was slightly surprised after seeing clearly: "It's them! What are they doing here, meow?"

"Could it be—an embryo?"

"In that case, I'll go out too, meow!"

"Meow~Meow!" The stray cats behind him followed.

——.

The main stall of the Neighborhood Association (also known as the neighborhood committee).

From a distance, I saw Amu's mother, Hinamori Midori, standing there with a sad look on her face.

Aoki An walked over with everyone.

Although she couldn't remember what happened, on the way, Amen had explained the situation to her and Nadeshiko Miya. The precious photos of her father and mother were accidentally lost, and the magazine with the photos was sent to the town association for charity sale. Amen and Amen's mother came to the charity sale to get the photos in the magazine back.

Judging from the expression on Yameng’s mother’s face, the magazine might have already been sold... Aoki An frowned slightly.

As expected, Hinamori sighed, "It's too late. It's already sold out."

"Hey?" Yameng quickly asked the woman who organized the charity sale, "Excuse me, do you know what kind of person bought it?"

The woman was startled, then thought for a moment: "It should be a boy wearing glasses, who said he likes wild birds very much."

"The boy with glasses..." Yameng thought for a moment, then turned to encourage Hinamori, "Mom, go find that kid and get the photo back!"

Hinamori: "But..."

Yameng: "Maybe he's still here at the venue!"

"There are so many people in the venue, I can't find it." Hinamori Midori didn't have any hope. How could she find the things to sell in such a situation?

“I’m sure you’ll find it!”

Yameng looked determined, "Just try your best!"

"..." Hinamori was stunned when she heard this, "Yamen..."

As expected of Yameng who always makes people feel warm... Qing Mu An affirmed: "You can find it."

Although she has forgotten how to find it back...

Nadeshiko also said, "The venue is so big, let's search separately."

Miya: “Yes, yes.”

"An-chan, Nadeshiko, Miya..." Yameng was deeply moved, "Then, meet in front of the clock by the bridge in the park in one hour."

The five men dispersed in different directions, totally unaware of a Shugo Chara riding a stray cat next to a cardboard box in a corner.
