The blue sea, my youth

Senior Tokita was silent, and couldn't help but sigh: "Then - our summer is also coming to an end."

Senior Shou: "Yes."

"Huh?" ×3, the three looked at the seniors in confusion, Iori: "Seniors, don't you have a break this month?"

Kohei: "Can't we play a few more games?"

Takaharu: "There's still some time left?"

Senior Azusa leaned on the back of the seniors' sofa: "That won't work."

Senior Shou: "We are all very busy, and we can't play even if we want to."

Senior Tokita announced with some reluctance: "Let's suspend the club activities for now."

Senior Shou: "That's right."

The atmosphere became inexplicably depressed.

Takaharu was also silent because of this: "Speaking of this..."

Kohei was also a little sad: "I feel a little sorry for you."

Senior Azusa laughed, "You don't have to mind it."

But no matter what, this is the last summer for everyone here...

Iori thought of something, slapped the table and stood up: "Seniors."

"Hmm?" ×3, the seniors looked at Iori in confusion.

Iori stared at them and asked seriously: "This summer, is there anything you want to do but didn't have the chance to do?"

Senior Tokita: "Things you want to do..."

Senior Shou: "There are more or less."

Senior Azusa: "Why do you ask this suddenly?"

Iori expressed his thoughts: "Then let's make up for the regret together! There is still time before we leave, and this summer, it will never come back."

The seniors were silent, Takaharu stared at the high-spirited Iori as if he had known him again, and after coming to his senses, Takaharu found a note and a pen and handed them to the seniors.

Not long after, a folded note was handed over by Senior Azusa.

It read: ☆Summer Regret Notes☆

Want to see everyone wearing proper yukatas - Senior Azusa

‘Something with a summer vibe.’ ‘Oh - that’s a good idea.’ ‘Does everyone have a yukata?’ ‘I’ll prepare Chisa’s yukata.’

Want to make takoyaki - Senior Kotobuki

‘My favorite!!’ ‘I have an iron plate.’ ‘Put all kinds of ingredients in it!’

Want to have a memorable cocktail party - Senior Tokita

‘This is important.’ ‘It’s important.’ ‘Everyone, work hard!’

Listen to the discussion while looking at the regrets of the seniors on the notes.

Takaharu: "These are the regrets of our predecessors."

Iori: "I see."

Kohei: "Anyway, let's just have a cocktail party where everyone wears yukata and eats takoyaki."

Chisa: "It's quite suitable for summer."

Takaharu: "It's my first time trying this."

Iori: "It will definitely be fun."

Chisa: "It shouldn't be anything weird."

Kohei: "This is the kind of event that should be held in summer."

Hearing that the others had no objections and were eager to start, Senior Tokita confirmed: "Are you all ok?"

Takaharu: "All OK!"

Kohei: "Let's do it all at once."

Iori: "Chisa is OK, right?"

Chisa: "Yeah, this kind of activity is OK."

After confirming that the four of them said it was OK, Senior Tokita was very happy: "Then let's all gather in yukata."

Senior Azusa found Nanaka who was tidying up the bar: "Nanaka is OK too?"

Sister Nanaka replied happily: "Yeah, sure, wait until the work is done."

...After a while...

The four people who changed into yukatas went to a large local supermarket with Senior Kotobuki and Senior Azusa.

Walking on the road, Takaharu looked left and right. When he first saw Iori's clothes, he felt that she didn't look like a yukata, but rather a kimono. However, after seeing Kohei wearing a Lalako co-branded yukata, Takaharu didn't care about Iori's clothes.

After entering the supermarket, before going shopping, Iori looked at Senior Azusa: "Shall we just buy octopus and takoyaki powder?"

Senior Azusa thought for a moment: "Just buy these, don't you think there's something missing?"

Senior Shou: "Let's buy some cheese, sausage, shrimp, etc."

Chisa agreed: "Good idea."

Senior Azusa: "Kimchi and mentaiko look good too."

Kohei's mouth was almost watering: "Just hearing about it makes me drool..."

Takaharu: "I really want to eat it right away."

Senior Azusa thought of another idea: "Let's add pancake premix and chocolate or something."

Iori: "Hahaha, a group of old men still eat sweets?"

Chisa said with shining eyes: "I like it very much."

At this time, they had already walked to the food area, and Senior Azusa picked up half an avocado and asked: "How about avocado?"

Iori: "The fat will be broken down, right?"

Senior AzusaSister: "Is that so."

Behind Iori, Chisa pulled his clothes and muttered: "Hey, I just said I like it very much!"

Takaharu smiled and watched Chisa and Iori's interaction, turned around and began to choose food that could be added to the takoyaki.

Suddenly, Senior Sister Azusa screamed "Ah", which attracted Takaharu and Kohei to look over. Takaharu saw that the avocado had fallen, but it had been caught by Senior Sister Azusa, so he continued to choose the ingredients he wanted to eat.

Kohei, who was standing in front of Senior Sister Azusa, was struck by lightning. After staring at Senior Sister Azusa for a few seconds, he felt something flowing out of his nose, and Kohei hurriedly turned around.

Hearing the sound of water dripping from Kohei's side, Iori turned around and asked: "Kohei, what's wrong?"

"No..." Kohei replied in a serious tone, "Nothing happened."

Takaharu: "I said Kohei, suddenly hearing such words in reality, inexplicably a little..."

... Shopping is completed...

Back at the diving shop, Senior Shou made takoyaki by himself.

Senior Tokita raised his glass and said loudly: "This party is our end-of-summer carnival!!"

"Cheers!" ×n

After taking a sip of wine and pairing it with an octopus ball, Takaharu smiled unconsciously: "This combination is so cool!!"

Iori was very excited: "That's right! Beer and octopus balls are great!!"

Kohei also smiled happily: "The feeling of hot and cold is great!"

Chisa didn't say anything, holding four or five toothpicks in her hand, each with an octopus ball on it, each with a different flavor. Of course, there was also the chocolate flavor that Chisa said she liked, but she didn't buy much at the time, so it can be said that it was specially made for Chisa and Senior Azusa.

Chisa's cheeks were bulging, and it was obvious that there was more than one octopus ball in her mouth, and the toothpick in her hand didn't stop, just filling her mouth with one, and then picking up the next one. (So ​​cute in the comics!)

Senior Glasses and Senior Shou brought two more plates of takoyaki over. Senior Glasses: "Sorry for the long wait, you! Kyoto-style sauce,"

Senior Shou: "Fried takoyaki with golden octopus flavor."

Senior Azusa's mouth was also full of takoyaki. She chewed and waved: "Well, it's okay, serve it quickly."

Senior Tokita didn't understand, but he still smiled: "What's going on?"

Iori took the camera and waved: "Seniors."

The seniors looked at Iori at the same time, not knowing what he was going to do. Taking this opportunity, Iori raised his camera and took a picture.

In the photo, Senior Tokita and Senior Azusa were sitting on the sofa, each holding a plate of takoyaki in their hands. Senior Shou was dressed like a chef and also holding a plate of takoyaki. The other seniors surrounded the three of them. Senior Azusa with a big hair leaned over from the sofa and reached out to take the plate of takoyaki in Senior Tokita's hand.

Senior Azusa excitedly asked Iori: "Why did you bring a camera?"

Iori: "I borrowed Chisa's camera."

Chisa was chewing and couldn't speak, so she could only nod to confirm.

Iori happily explained: "To hold a cocktail party worth remembering."

"?" ×n, the seniors were all confused.

Iori was also confused: "Have you forgotten the theme of today?"

Kohei: "Didn't I ask you if you have any regrets before?"

Takaharu: "I wrote it on a piece of paper at that time."

Senior Tokita understood: "Ah, that one."

Senior Anzai: "Then today's event doesn't count."

Senior Azusa: "Yes."

Iori looked at the photo in the camera: "That's right, just taking a photo is not worth remembering, it's just leaving a record."

Senior with glasses: "No, no, no." Senior Azusa: "That's not what I meant."

Takaharu scratched his head, confused: "What does that mean?"

Senior Tokita took out the note he had written before and handed it over.

Iori took the note and was surprised to find that there seemed to be something on the side that was folded before: "Hmm? There seems to be words in the corner--"
