Reborn in Tokyo after picking up Sayu who ran away from home

Chapter 269
Leave the village by bus, then take the JR Takasaki Line through the neighboring city of Honjo, arrive at Fukaya, and then take a taxi.

15 minute later.

An antique Japanese-style building with a huge area is presented in front of you. There are dense lush trees around it, making the whole small building feel like being in the forest, which looks very comfortable.

"Ah~ it's finally here."

"Ah."

The two people who had paid the fare got off the taxi.

The notice board standing next to the entrance clearly has a few big characters——花汤の森.

As Saitama, the capital and three prefectures of the Kanto region, there are various hot springs, large and small, and Hanayu no Mori in Fukaya City is one of them.

Although it is not as well-known as Hakone, Ginzan, and Shirakawa Onsen, it is also a unique private hot spring hotel in Saitama Prefecture.

Enter the hotel through the shaded entrance.

"excuse me."

"Yes~ come now."

After shouting, a staff member came out immediately.

"Well, are you...?" The woman in a bathrobe folded her hands in front of her lower abdomen and asked the two of them.

Kato Yusuke nodded, "Hello, we have an appointment before."

"Ah, it's Mr. Kato and Ms. Ogiwara, right?" The woman who heard his words knelt down, put her hands together on the floor and bowed slowly, "Yes, welcome to our store, we are waiting for you It's been a long time."

"what……?"

Seeing this scene, Sayu couldn't help but let out a little gasp: "That, may I ask."

"Yes?"

"—It seems that we haven't reported our names yet, how did you confirm it directly?"

"Ah, so this is the case~" The woman who looked up smiled and explained, "Actually, there are not many guests who come to the hot springs in summer, and you are the only one who makes reservations for accommodation." You two, so I'll know as soon as you say it."

After finishing speaking, he got up from the ground and cast his eyes on Kato Yusuke, "Then please follow me, and I will take you to the room now."

""I'm sorry to trouble you. ""

After thanking each other, the two followed each other.

Creak creak, creak creak.

The red wooden floor groaned underfoot.

Strolling through the long and narrow corridors with a strong Showa flavor, you can see objects of all sizes full of simplicity and style everywhere.

From the washi paper floor lamps standing at the feet and the hanging lamps on the beams, to the ukiyo-e paintings hanging on the corridor walls, to the exquisite screens and exquisite hina dolls arranged in the concave grids of the walls.

Everything makes the hotel unique and unconventional.

Speaking of which, Iwatsuki Ward (city), which once existed as an independent city and is now incorporated into Saitama City, is also known as the hometown of dolls in Japan.

Because of the abundance of tung trees in this area, local people are used to making tung tree powder into paste to make dolls.

Moreover, the dolls produced here rank first in Japan in terms of both quality and quantity.

The categories covered range from Hinamatsuri dolls in May, to Edo wooden dolls, to dancing dolls, and costume dolls. It can be said that dolls from Iwatsuki can be seen all over Japan.

Although Kato Yusuke can't appreciate this kind of doll with pale face and strange makeup, and even reminds him of paper dolls, there are quite a few people who like these dolls.

And those craftsmen who hone this craft day and night not only have good makeup skills, but even make clothes independently.

Even if one day I no longer engage in this industry, I will not starve to death outside.For example, opening a cosplay costume customization studio or something...

A certain person was thinking a little bit wildly, and his eyes fell on the girlfriend beside him involuntarily.

For some reason, the other party changed into that Western-style uniform again today.The rolled up sleeves and the tight tie look very sassy, ​​the shirt tucked into the skirt emphasizes the slender waist, and the straight and white legs extending from the skirt make the whole person look slim and pure and lovely.

Keep your eyes on the chest, waist, legs, legs, legs, legs, legs, etc. for a while.

The appearance of the other party in the maid outfit suddenly appeared in front of the eyes, and the looming absolute realm gave people infinite reverie.

Leaving aside those well-known cosplayers such as enako who earn hundreds of millions of yen a year from cosplay, it seems interesting to have a girlfriend with ever-changing and diverse styles.

Just when he was thinking about these things.

"call--"

A warm and faint breath blew in along the ears, and the itchy feeling all over the body made the body tremble involuntarily.

"Looking at someone's legs for so long, what are you thinking~?"

The faint whispers that only the two of them could hear came to their ears, like an invisible hand gently scratching at the heart, causing the heart to sway.

Looking back, I saw Sayu looking at him narrowly, with a tacit blush on his face, and a pair of bright eyes blinking and blinking as if signaling.

Kato Yusuke, who coughed lightly, turned his head and turned his gaze to the woman in front.

The other party continued to lead the way as if he didn't notice anything, but the black belt around his waist highlighted the round curve of his buttocks, so he immediately looked away in embarrassment.

Then without saying a word, he took the girl's hand and squeezed it tightly.

There was a pounding sound in his heart like a drum beating, which was in stark contrast to the silence on the surface.

Ever since some natural things happened, the flames ignited in the chest have never been extinguished, making Kato Yusuke feel as if he is still intoxicated in the intoxicating plum wine.

I don't know exactly how I got drunk.

A piece of prose poem that I had read quietly rose in my mind:
"I only remember your back like uncut jade, as white as goose feather snow in the north, but unexpectedly soft like the continuous rain in the south.

You take off the bridle, and I'll take the rein.Until the sun came up and you stared at me resentfully.

I know what you want to ask, I just want to bring you, a handsome horse from the snow country, back to my Jiangnan water town. "

…………

The strength of the palm loosened and tightened.

Sayu, who silently endured all this, clasped him backhand and smiled sweetly, "It's time to get to the room, Yusuke~"

If you look carefully, you can see that the other party's eyes are also covered with a layer of watery light.

And several people have come to a door.

The word "Summer Solstice" is engraved on the dark brown doorplate.

As the woman opened the door with a "click", a small porch appeared in front of her eyes.

The woman who took off her indoor shoes was the first to lift her footsteps, set foot on a higher step, and then opened the inner paper door horizontally with a "swish".

The scene in front of him suddenly opened up.

What appears in view is a spacious and bright tatami-style room.

The surrounding walls are all pasted with paper.

In the center of the room is a low black table with two chairs on the floor.

Look out over the adjacent separate tea room.

Through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, a lush bamboo forest comes into view, swaying in the late sunset.

If there seems to be no sulfur smell floating into the nose.

The polite words of the woman came from the ear, "This is the family bath suite you have booked. You two can rest first. If you need anything, please contact the front desk through the intercom."

After bowing, she slowly exited the room.

Swish, click.

The footsteps gradually faded away.

There were only two people left in the room.

　Thank you [Scholar Surnamed Chen] for your reward.
