The invitation to the autumn Japanese festival from Nikolai was an unexpected event. The essence of the whole festival was to buy rakes decorated with symbols of good luck.

The street was crowded with people. Everywhere there were bright colors, warm light from national Japanese lamps, somehow there were small mobile shops with food. Nikolai was standing somewhere on the edge of everyone and as soon as he noticed you, he smiled broadly and waved his hand.

"Don't stand like a pillar!"
