Chapter 165: Sagamihara 7 Evening Festival

However, according to the tradition of the island country, the Qixi Festival is to wear a kimono, so compared with Kato Kei, Qin Heqing, who is still dressed in modern fashion and casual clothes, does not abide by the rules.
"Why, is there any problem with my dress?" Seeing Qin Heqing blankly watching Kato Kee who didn't speak, the corners of his mouth were slightly tilted, arms spread out, and he showed his clothes to Qin Heqing. Asked softly.
A look that I am afraid that my dress is not good enough, it looks very cute.
"No, very decent, very good! My whole soul is about to be hooked away by you." Qin Heqing shook his head, admiring Kato Ebi's thumb as he moved forward.
"Is it as good as you said?" Kato Kee confirmed in a low voice, slightly shy.
"Of course, the feeling that Yamato Nadeshiko is alive is really heartwarming. Even if the time and place are not right, I have the urge to stay at home and live with you." Qin Heqing smiled. .
"Really? Then I'm relieved."
Then the two of them didn't stay here much at the exit, turned around and walked into the platform, took the subway to the nearest tram station, and then transferred to the tram to Sagamihara City in Kanagawa Prefecture.
The road is very quiet-after all, it is the weekend. Except for some service industries and large companies and clubs, most of the employees of enterprises are resting. Therefore, not only are there rare people in trams and subways, but even the traffic on the streets has become very scarce. The whole city exudes a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere, which makes people feel that Tokyo is not Tokyo, but a certain countryside in the Tohoku region, which is very strange.
Naturally, the probability of encountering an accident has also become extremely low, so the two left Tokyo smoothly and arrived in Sagamihara City, which is adjacent to Setagaya and Ota District.
Then get off the bus and move towards the Hashimoto shopping street where the apex parade of the Tanabata Festival will be held.
Along the way, all kinds of bamboo trees provided by county, district and city government departments can be seen everywhere. They are covered with beard-like paper stamps and colored bars with characters written on them. I don’t know how many of them are real wishes. How much is written indiscriminately in order to make up the good looks.
But no matter what, the atmosphere of the Qixi Festival is set off in an instant against the backdrop of these bamboo trees all over the street.
Qin Heqing and Kato Megumi's mentality began to change, and they wandered around Sagamihara like real tourists.
After all, it is still too early to start the sacrifice, there is really no need to rush to the venue in such a hurry, you can still wander around.
...
So time passed, and time came to one o'clock in the afternoon.
With the advent of the time for sacrificial activities, the number of vehicles on the entire street began to decrease, until after removing the vehicles for private use and that did not affect the activities, it was difficult to see an unlicensed vehicle for activities.
Out-of-store stalls of various shops began to branch out, and various activity stalls that are often seen during festivals in some island countries gradually appeared next to designated commercial streets one by one, converging with each other to build a special holiday venue.
The number of tourists began to increase, and the parade personnel began to appear gradually, gathering into a large crowd, filling the streets vacated by the lack of motor vehicles, like a sea of ​​people.
"It's very lively." Qin Heqing, who had captured this scene, murmured in exclamation.
This is the manifestation of the benefits of well-known festivals with official or strong financial support from commercial groups-it can make the whole scene very grand and lively! Replaced with the shrine of Qin and Kiyoshi and those support groups of his shrine?
Not to mention that the two streets are directly sealed off on the Hashimoto Commercial Street to engage in large-scale rituals, but it is not bad to be able to make the October festival.
So whenever this happens, Qin Heqing admires those well-known shrines that can make sacrifices at every turn.
If possible, he would like to make it too!
Even if only once.
"I believe that with the ability of King Heqing, one day he can lead people to hold similar sacrifices." As if understanding what Qin Heqing was thinking in his heart, Kato Hui reached out and held Qin Heqing's palm with a soft smile on his face. Encourage.
"Well, I definitely will." Qin Heqing nodded in agreement, then turned his head and smiled at Kato Megumi who was also looking over.
"Come on, let's get closer."
"it is good."
...
Soon, from a few days or even a month ago, the various groups and the executives of the sacrificial activities, who began to prepare and prepare, will prepare the things to be used next, and then shout the slogan, one seems to be enough to have one person over. Two and a half meters wide and three and a half meters long, a large sedan chair with two long mahogany bars protruding from the front of the box was greeted by all the audience.
Wearing sleeveless blouses and dark shorts, with white ropes tied to their heads, the sedan chairmen who exposed the strong muscles of their arms and chest moved forward, shouting tidy slogans, and walked along the street.
"Yo! Hey! Yo! Hey!"
And this is only the first wave. In other places that Qin Heqing can’t see, there are still few floats that have their own characteristics. They are wearing uniform styles, colors, fabrics and kimonos, doing the same. The dressed woman opened the way in front, waving her arms and jumping up. Even ordinary people who had never participated in the event could meet in a blink of an eye. The simple dance that followed in a blink of an eye attracted audiences from both sides to join their team and experience the sacrifice together. fun of.
Quite traditional island music faintly sounded, officially kicking off the prelude to the Tanabata Festival in Sagamihara City.
"I just asked. The final venue of the Tanabata Festival this time is at the Shrine of the Gods in Hashimoto. If you want to come there, it should be more lively. Let's go over there." , UU Reading www.uukanshu.com slightly followed the team to move Qin Heqing to the side of Kato Hui and suggested to her.
"Okay." Kato Megumi didn't refuse this, but agreed casually.
Then the two left the crowd and walked along the street.
According to the news that we have just discovered, the location of the God’s Grand Shrine is exactly at the intersection of the two streets where the car is held, so we don’t need to ask for directions at all, and we go straight past the car until we see a group of traditions. The place where vendors exist is.
So the two of them didn't worry about getting lost, and walked slowly-with a pace only slightly faster than the traveling car.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a small traditional stall to appear in the eyes of the two.
In an instant, Qin Heqing and Kato Megumi's eyes lit up, and they walked quickly to the booth.
"Go, there are water balloons there. Let's buy two." After that, Qin Heqing paused and said while pulling Kato Kee to a certain target booth.
