Chapter 394

~11 min read 2,017 words

Tokyo Disney Resort is located in Chiba Prefecture, Japan. This Disney park is exceptionally rare in that The Walt Disney Company has fully licensed Disney to Japan for ownership and operation. On the Japanese side, by purchasing the license, they established a company called Oriental Land Company (OLC for short), which fully owns all rights to this Disney park.

The Walt Disney Company has no equity stake in Tokyo Disney; through a trademark licensing agreement, it collects royalties in exchange for allowing Tokyo Disney to use its intellectual property and operational standards.

The Walt Disney Company merely provides creative consultation, design, and development support, and directly dispatches managers for Disney's character performers.

This model is considered highly successful, so Tokyo Disney differs from other Disneys by having a unique ocean park and some products that integrate Japanese local culture.

In contrast, Shanghai Disney is essentially a subsidiary of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC), which holds 57% of the shares, while The Walt Disney Company owns only 43%. Hence, Shanghai Disney tends to be rather arrogant toward visitors. However, it should be noted that although Shanghai Disney is fundamentally a SASAC enterprise, its main operations are still guided primarily by The Walt Disney Company.

Therefore, Tokyo Disney is a homegrown, orthodox Japanese enterprise! Meanwhile, Shanghai Disney is even more a mixed-ownership state-owned enterprise with pure red-bloodline belonging to all the people (a great haze)!

Uesugi Muneyuki himself is not particularly fond of Disney. It is indeed fun, and he had visited Disney in South Abyss in his past life, but two things made him uncomfortable: first, the queue times were too long; second, the prices inside were too high. When he went to play, it was still a period when Hong Kong dollars were quite valuable, and he exchanged several thousand, only to barely have enough. One visit drained three to four months of his savings.

However, people standing in different positions see different things.

In this life, he only then learned that Disney is not actually something one must always queue for.

Enjoy Card, Supreme Enjoy Card, Concierge Service, Club 33, Supreme Enjoy Guide Service.

Having money truly means one can do as one pleases. jpg

As the daughter of the Superintendent General, Watanabe Minami naturally could obtain a membership card for Disney Club 33. However, the member card can at most bring three additional members. Since the number of people with Uesugi Muneyuki exceeded that, Minami Ojou-sama let Uesugi Muneyuki figure out how to get Club 33

membership status on his own.

Uesugi Muneyuki was calculating that he would probably need to go to Sumitomo Mitsui or Nippon Life Insurance, but before he could inquire, the appearance of Mai Xuejie solved all the problems.

She also has a Club 33 membership!

Thus, in late January, the planned Disney trip finally commenced. Watanabe Minami brought Eirina, Asuka, and Mikoto as one group, while Uesugi Muneyuki's side was led by Shirakawa Mai, and they split into two batches using Club 33's special fast-track entrance to enter the park.

The people around instantly recognized Uesugi Muneyuki's group, shocked beyond belief.

The Sugawara Clan openly brought their inner palace on an outing?!

This is big news! Hurry up and film it!

"Hello~Mickey!" Mai Xuejie didn't mind; upon entering the park and seeing the cute Mickey Mouse plush, she greeted it.

"Goodbye, Money~" Uesugi Muneyuki glanced at the Disney restaurant's turkey leg set meal priced at 1500 yen per serving, then recalled that when he had Nishimura Asahi Law Office file a lawsuit, he couldn't even come up with the eight million yen prepaid lawsuit fee at once, and he couldn't help but feel somewhat tearful.

If one doesn't work hard, one can only eat soft rice and become Mai Xuejie's plaything!

Because the two groups entered the park at different times, after Watanabe Minami entered, Uesugi Shiro successfully entered the park. At that very moment, a girl wearing sunglasses, dressed in sweet casual clothes, and wearing a Duffy Bear hairband quickly caught Uesugi Shiro's attention.

Only see the girl holding a selfie stick, excitedly saying: "Squeeze your chicken sala kula sala kula~Yo! Everyone on Earth, can you hear me?

YKC48, Miyawaki Sakura, right now, from Dream Kingdom Disneyland, I bring everyone a completely solo live broadcast!"

"Viewer count, hurry and go crazy sharing this out, this precious 'Little Cherry Blossom solo Disney'!"

Saying this, she looked at the unchanged stream, with only over a thousand people watching, and the girl felt a bit nervous: "Speaking of,

? Is the live broadcast setup okay? One person talking, still quite nervous."

After speaking, the girl strained to pull the camera back, aiming it at the distant Cinderella Castle, straining to adjust her expression: "Oh oh one one! Quick look, this castle! MagicHour plus lighting, this scenery, too perfect for photos, In's submission material 100% usable!"

Subsequently, the girl momentarily didn't know what to say, a bit embarrassedly turning the camera toward herself, her expression slightly teasing: "But seriously, what I'm most worried about now is, wait, will Space Mountain mess up my hairstyle? If an idol's lifeline collapses, the stream must end immediately, right?"

Saying that, Miyawaki Sakura nervously tidied her hair.

It's no wonder Little Cherry Blossom is nervous; she is currently working hard to open up a new track.

Since becoming an idol, Little Cherry Blossom has felt a strong sense of crisis. The girl feels that the 48 Group is rapidly declining, and when she started to blow up, it coincided with the group as a whole beginning to fall, so she especially values opportunities outside the group, namely "terrestrial broadcast."

However, the girl quickly discovered her talent is not that great.

She can't sing, can't act, can't do variety shows; to this day, her most famous meme is still the one from when she was scared into crawling on the ground in 《God's Hand SP》 and eating at Yoshinoya, but memes have life cycles—constantly playing them not only bores the audience, but she herself gets bored too.

Why hasn't 《God's Hand》 found me to record a show yet? Little Cherry Blossom often complains in her heart.

I can't do anything, I'm not good at studying, I lack special talents—I can't possibly be an idol my whole life!

After Little Cherry Blossom, full of crisis, groped for a long time, she finally found her own track.

YouTube Live Stream video uploader!

She actually had already been posting things on YouTube before, trying to broaden her track, and this field had actually always been lukewarm before, because compared to others, aside from being cute, she had no obvious advantage, and each video only got a few thousand plays.

Until she rode on the coattails of National Goddess Shirakawa Mai and Legendary Forensic Uesugi Muneyuki.

Japanese people naturally have a strong voyeuristic desire, especially Mai Xuejie's private life and Uesugi Muneyuki's private life are really fun! Everyone wants to see this, exactly this!

This made Miyawaki Sakura inclined to turn toward this area; she is still trying live streaming for the first time today, and for this she has indeed spent a fortune. Anyway, considering the Japanese people's Disney sentiment, choosing Disney definitely won't be wrong!

The reactions in the danmaku are also relatively harmonious.

【Little Cherry Blossom is cute!】【Hairstyle is fine!】【Going to Disney alone is a hero ww】【Why isn't Little Cherry Blossom in this episode of Fuji TV's 《God's Hand》?】

"Hehehe, regarding 《God's Hand》 variety shows, Little Cherry Blossom can only say, please look forward to it!" Miyawaki Sakura slyly suddenly lowered her voice,

With an "inside scoop" feel, she said: "Regarding the performance with Mai-sama and Uesugi-san, Little Cherry Blossom still has secrets she hasn't told,, I will later consider making a dedicated video, saying 'Cherry Blossom Secret History', hehehe——those who want to see? Brush 'want to see' in the comments? ·If the number of people who like, favorite, and coin this episode in one click exceeds 1000, maybe it will be released exclusively later?"

After the girl said that, she shyly covered her face, knowing she was actually bragging, but the danmaku instantly became all 【want to see want to see】, still making the girl quite proud,

Hooked! What the heck, my level of fooling the danmaku is still not bad!

And just at this moment, Miyawaki Sakura suddenly noticed the danmaku count and concurrent viewership suddenly began to surge exponentially!

What's going on?

Little Cherry Blossom looked at the camera and live broadcast screen with a face full of doubt. Due to the ten-second delay in the live stream, by the time she saw the danmaku frantically reminding her to look behind her, Miyawaki Sakura noticed that a man and woman of outstanding demeanor were standing behind the camera.

These two people, these two people are?

The camera shook violently, Little Cherry Blossom's voice dropped to the lowest, carrying incredulous excitement and trembling, she swore, even if these two people turned to bone ash, she would still recognize them!

"Wait.. family members, could it be—did you see? That silhouette, that gait—could it be, could it be—National Goddess Shirakawa Mai-san?! And beside her, the male is— that legendary Tokyo University doctoral, Legendary Forensic, the ace of the Metropolitan Police Department, Uesugi Muneyuki-san?!"

Mixed with immense panic and opportunity-fueled ecstasy, Miyawaki Sakura switched back to her high-energy live broadcast tone, volume raised, with deliberate surprise turning around, and saw Mai and Uesugi looking at her in surprise: "Oh oh oh oh one one!!! Is this a miracle?! Is it a dream?! Disney's magic actually summoned a super special guest?! "

"Mai-sama one one!!! Uesugi-san one one!!! Long time no see!!!"

Shirakawa Mai and Uesugi Muneyuki smiled and greeted Little Cherry Blossom. Mai Xuejie saw her holding up her phone, wearing the Duffy hairband, face straining to squeeze out a smile, and her surprised expression revealed a gentle yet knowing affectionate smile. Uesugi Muneyuki's expression was strange, his demeanor the calm observation typical of a scholar, but the corners of his mouth also slightly lifted, as if he found it quite interesting.

How can one run into an acquaintance just by visiting Disney?

But it's fine, just an acquaintance, not a dead person.

Uesugi Muneyuki thought, if even playing at Disney could lead to a murder case, then am I really becoming Detective Conan?

Shirakawa Mai Xuejie approached elegantly in long boots, her voice soft like a spring breeze: "Ah? Sakura? I never expected to meet you here, you startled me. Are you in the middle of a live broadcast?"

Sakura's camera wildly panned toward Shirakawa Mai's face, then pulled back to film herself, incoherent with excitement: "Yes, yes!!!"

I was solo-enjoying Disney, doing a live stream!!! Mai-sama, Uesugi-san, sorry to disturb you in your busy schedules!!! But-but this moment, I must get it into the live stream, right?! A century collaboration?!

"Audience members, look quickly!! It's these two!! National Goddess Shirakawa Mai and, Legendary Forensic Medic Uesugi Muneyuki!! They've descended upon Sakura's live stream—!!!"

"Share! Spread! Gift! Right now! A historic moment!"

Just as these few words left their mouths, the simultaneous viewer count had already surpassed ten thousand.

Sakura never imagined that even playing Disney could lead to encountering Uesugi Shiro—this stream of hers was going to blow up! Blow up, tooth sound!

Uesugi Muneyuki watched Sakura flustered and thought, truly a cute clout-chasing dog, he gently interjected with the clear tone distinctive of nobility: "You came alone to play? Really rare, Sakura-chan, be careful not to get too excited—overemotional agitation in this cold weather could trigger autonomic nervous system dysfunction!"

"Eh~ red bean paste?" Sakura feigned shock: "This is the University of Tokyo doctorate? No wonder, Uesugi-san!"

Shirakawa Mai Xuejie watched Sakura's ecstatic state, couldn't help but glance at Uesugi Muneyuki interacting with Miyawaki Sakura, then after a moment of thought, her eyes lit up as she proactively said: "Since we've coincidentally met, let's play together today, how about it?"

"Eh eh eh eh eh????"

Sakura ecstatic.

Again got a ride.

Seventeen years of life, like a dream, likewise an illusion!

Cherry Blossom Era, boiling anticipation!
