Akimoto Kazuna hesitated. "Aren't you going in?"
Mrs. Tatsumi looked a little embarrassed. "It's something children play with, after all... And I've always been calm and composed in front of my son. It would be too humiliating if he found out I got lost." In truth, she wanted to go wait directly at the exit.
Akimoto Kazuna looked at Hashimoto Maya and Curacao again.
Hashimoto Maya tilted his head up at the blue sky, seeming more interested in the various rides in the distance.
Curacao raised her phone to her ear as though she had suddenly received an important work call. As she took two leisurely steps to the side, she gestured for Akimoto Kazuna to go first.
Akimoto Kazuna: "..." What had you people even come to the amusement park for?
The staff member nearby was also growing impatient. Casually clearing his throat, he called out again, "Next!"
Akimoto Kazuna came back to his senses and gave the three people in line who had yielded their spots to him an apologetic smile. "Then I'll head in first."
In the distance, a tall frog-shaped mascot turned its head. Its eyes, encased in a translucent plastic shell, gazed over and silently watched the scene.
Then it secretly sent Jiang Xia a message: [There's something wrong with this Mirror House. Be extra careful. If you see anything dangerous that looks like an explosive, leave immediately.] And evacuate the innocent civilians inside while he was at it.
After Jiang Xia had walked through the Mirror House for a while, he spotted another member of the four-person broadcasting group in a mirror ahead. She seemed to be studying something in front of her and said in surprise, "How did they arrange this? It's incredible."
The others' voices drifted over from afar as well.
