Mosen’s sudden appearance startled Smoker. Turning his head, he saw Mosen’s annoyingly handsome face, and his expression darkened.
“Are you kidding me? I come here to avoid you, and we still run into each other,” Smoker thought, feeling like this was some sort of twisted fate.
With a stiff expression, Smoker said, “What a coincidence, Mosen.”
Coincidence, my foot! I never wanted to see you.
Mosen noticed Smoker’s strange expression but didn’t dwell on it.
Smiling, he said, “Long time no see. Isn’t it great to see an old friend? Why don’t you introduce the beautiful lady next to you?”
Smoker wasn’t happy at all, even feeling a bit annoyed. What’s with those eyes glued to Tina?
He had no intention of making introductions.
Before Smoker could speak, Tina did.
“Hello, Captain Mosen. I’m Lieutenant Tina from Navy Headquarters. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Mosen smiled and nodded, resisting the urge to joke about her pleasure. First impressions shouldn’t be too cheeky.
“I’ve heard of you, Lieutenant Tina. Your reputation precedes you. It’s great to finally meet you.” Then he turned to introduce the two kids. “These are Vincent and Leaf, my brother and sister.”
“Say hello to this uncle and this lady.”
The smoker took a mental hit.
Tina burst into laughter. This Captain Mosen was as amusing as the rumors said.
“Hello, Uncle Smoker and Aunt Tina,” Leaf greeted enthusiastically.
The smoker took another mental hit.
Luckily, Vincent already knew Smoker and respectfully called him Big Brother, which slightly improved Smoker’s mood.
“So, you guys are here for the amusement park too? Why not join us?” Mosen suggested with a smile.
“Sure.”
“No.”
Tina and Smoker answered simultaneously but with differing opinions.
“Haha, it’s settled then. I’ll go get the tickets.”
Ignoring Smoker’s objection, Mosen walked to the ticket counter and bought five tickets for the amusement park.
He also stored away Smoker’s shopping bags.
“No need to thank me. Just buy me a drink later.”
Smoker was speechless. Who said he’d buy you a drink?
Didn’t he see I didn’t want to come to this lousy amusement park?
But since the tickets were bought, there was no choice but to follow along reluctantly.
At the roller coaster, Mosen led the group through ticket checks and onto the ride.
It wasn’t a holiday or weekend, so the amusement park wasn’t crowded.
Mosen’s group took an entire car for themselves.
In his previous life, as a travel-loving gamer, Mosen had been to many places, trying out activities like bungee jumping, paragliding, and diving.
But as a miserable single nerd, he had never experienced roller coasters, drop towers, or Ferris wheels.
This time, he was finally fulfilling that dream.
Though there was still no lady by his side,
Having a big loli was also quite satisfying.
Mosen and the excited Leaf sat at the front, Vincent in the middle, and Smoker and Tina at the back.
Vincent: “Why is life so unfair?”
As the roller coaster sped up and down, Leaf screamed in excitement.
Even the composed Tina couldn’t help but scream, filling the ride with laughter and joy.
Even the usually grumpy Smoker couldn’t help but smile at the infectious happiness around him.
However, when the ride ended, Smoker’s legs were a bit wobbly, and his face was slightly pale.
It was clear that this was Smoker’s first time experiencing such a ride.
After one round, the group wanted more.
But Leaf and Tina were immediately attracted to the carousel… uh, the rotating wooden pigs… wooden cows next to them.
Whether a queen or a loli, they all have a romantic heart.
“I want to ride this! Is that okay, Mosen?” Leaf asked, her big eyes sparkling, hugging and shaking Mosen’s arm.
Unfortunately, she was still a flat-chested kid.
Ahem.
Mosen quickly reminded himself: three years minimum…
“Tina likes this too.”
Tina said to Smoker.
Well, that settles it.
After a few rounds, the two girls were ready to move on to the next attraction.
“Wow, ice cream!”
Leaf was now in full foodie mode.
Mosen bought one for everyone, giving the last one to Smoker.
Watching the tough Smoker eating ice cream while smoking made Mosen nearly laugh out loud.
“Hahaha, Smoker, this is hilarious.”
With Mosen’s laughter, everyone else turned to look at Smoker, trying to suppress their smiles.
Smoker stuffed the entire ice cream into his mouth, black lines forming on his forehead.
Swallowing the ice cream, he shouted at Mosen, “You bastard, do you want to duel?”
Remarkably, the two cigars never fell from his mouth throughout the process.
Mosen ignored the enraged Smoker and led the way to the drop tower.
Too bad there was no photo-taking Den Den Mushi.
At that moment, Mosen realized something was missing.
How could he not record this… magnificent blue-haired prince?
Oh, what a missed opportunity for this amusement park, missing out on free publicity.
Just think how much more business they could have had…
The drop tower was about a hundred meters high, a cylindrical structure with eight seats around it.
When Mosen’s group arrived, there were already two people waiting.
A young man and woman who didn’t look like ordinary folks.
The woman’s eyes lit up upon seeing Mosen.
She didn’t recognize Mosen’s identity, but her appreciation for beauty made her gaze linger on him.
Judging by their rings, the man beside her, presumably her husband, looked at Mosen warily, subtly blocking his wife’s view.
On a regular day, Mosen might have teased the seemingly newlywed couple.
But with more rides to enjoy, he ignored the man’s guarded look.
The woman noticed her husband’s small gesture and chuckled, secretly holding his hand.
Mosen’s group got an unwelcome dose of the couple’s PDA…
Once seated, Mosen had Leaf and Vincent to his left and Smoker and Tina to his right.
Further along were the young couple.
As they prepared, the seats slowly ascended. Mosen could feel Smoker’s muscles tensing with the height.
When they reached the top, the seats lost all power.
Under gravity’s pull, the drop tower plummeted.
“Ah…” Smoker let out a high-pitched scream, his two cigars flying from his mouth.
Suddenly, a white smoke rose; unable to bear it, Smoker had directly turned into smoke.
