Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 310 One Day in Morioka

Waking up in the hotel room for the second time, Naruse turned his head and stared at his sleeping girlfriend next to him for a while, then looked out at the yard.

The rising sun couldn't shine into the small courtyard surrounded by bamboo and wood, but there was a faint darkness, and the thin mist was as hazy as his illusion.

And a new day has indeed arrived.

Today is his third and last day in Morioka.

I just arrived the day before yesterday, and I just walked around the lakeside of the Imperial Palace;
Yesterday I stayed at Xiaoyanjing Farm for almost a whole day, and I played all the content I wanted to experience with Shangzi before I came back. Both of them were exhausted.

As for today, they will check out in the morning. They are going to eat and stroll around in Morioka City, and then go home.

After lying down for a while, Naruse was about to get up.

His arm was caught in the melting warmth, he slowly pulled it away, and couldn't help covering it with his palm.

"Well……"

Shangzi, who was still asleep, unconsciously hugged his hand tightly again.

Naruse temporarily gave up his plan to get up and continued to lie down.

As the sun moved up, the small courtyard outside gradually became brighter.There was silence in the room, and he soon heard the activity of early risers in the corridor outside.

The guests in the hotel are all elderly people, and the elderly like to get up early.

In other words, at this age, it is not easy to maintain a good sleep.

Looking at the ceiling, Naruse listened to the movement outside, and at a certain moment, he suddenly noticed the eyes beside him.

"woke up."

"Um……"

Shangzi's eyes were clear, as if he had been awake for a while.

"When did Chunhai wake up?"

"Just wake up ten minutes earlier than Shangzi."

She stretched under the quilt, then turned over and hugged him tightly, rubbing against his arm.

"I do not want to get up……"

"You can still sleep a little longer."

"But Chunhai remembers to eat breakfast." She touched his stomach with her hand, "It's all deflated."

Naruse smiled, "I'm not particularly hungry either."

The two played and ate at the farm yesterday, and when they came back, their stomachs were still full, so they didn't have dinner at all.

As a result, in the middle of the night, both became hungry again.

Originally, I wanted to find a place nearby for supper, but I didn't expect that the hotel lobby would also provide food at midnight. The two of them each ordered a bowl of udon noodles and went to bed after a full meal. Now that they woke up, they were not so hungry.

"Let's get up."

Shangzi got up, half-covering the open bathrobe, "The price is so expensive, I feel bad for missing a breakfast..."

Naruse reached into the bathrobe, grasped it, and took a long time to let go.

"Then get up."

The two of them didn't change their clothes, they put on their bathrobes, washed up and went to the restaurant.

After the last meal in the hotel, Naruse and Naoko went back to the room and went to soak in the hot spring pool again.

"It would be great if we could soak together in a bigger hot spring pool..."

"Then I have to go to the mixed bath pool."

"Just me and Chunhai."

"That has to be reserved."

The two soaked for a long time before coming out, then packed their luggage and went to check out.

The female general sent them to the gate of the courtyard, "Welcome to the Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter Pavilion next time."

Naruse nodded, and took another look at the hotel where he stayed for two nights.

This place is a bit remote, if Song Qianqiu wants to come here, it is very suitable to live here.

"Goodbye."

Pulling his girlfriend, he walked down the long ramp for a while, and when he came to the visitor center, Naruse searched for a while, and soon saw the bus heading to the city.

"The bus is over there. I'm going to buy a ticket."

"Ah."

After buying a ticket and getting on the bus, the two waited on the bus for a while. At around ten o'clock, the bus with few people left on time.

Half an hour later, the bus stopped at Morioka Station.

The two got out of the car, stored their luggage in the locker at the station, and then boarded the circular bus empty-handed, and wandered around downtown Morioka.

After a short ride, the bus arrived at Iwate Park.

There is another name here: Morioka Castle Park.

The entire park was built on the remains of the former Morioka Castle, and tall and mottled ruins can be seen everywhere inside. Just like Tsumae Park, it is also full of cherry blossoms.

The two came here during the Morioka Cherry Blossom Festival, and there were many tourists in the park.

"I'm used to seeing the complete castle castle, but seeing this kind of ruins again, I really don't feel much." Naruse said.

Shangzi smiled, took his arm, and continued to look at the beautifully blooming Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms on both sides.

The two walked around the castle park, and went to look at the monuments of two short-lived poets, Ishikawa Woodpecker and Miyazawa Kenji, and took a few photos.

"Harukai seems to like Ishikawa Takuboku very much."

"I only like the poems he writes."

"Hmm... is there a difference?"

"The difference is huge."

Come out of the castle ruins park, walk along the banks of the Nakatsu River for a while, and you will see a conspicuous red building as soon as you cross the bridge.

"That's the Iwate Bank Red Brick Building." Naruse said, pulling his girlfriend closer.

"This style..."

Shang Zi stared at the Red Brick Pavilion that was getting closer, but frowned slightly, "You look familiar."

Naruse smiled, "It should look familiar."

She thought for a while, and suddenly the whole picture of the similar building appeared in her mind, and then she remembered the name.

“Tokyo Station!”

"Well, this place was designed by Kingo Tatsuno who designed Tokyo Station."

"No wonder the style is so similar..."

It has been in operation for more than 100 years. The function of the Red Brick Museum as a bank ended ten years ago. Now it has been reopened and its nature has been transformed into a museum.

You can go in and visit during the day, and the two of them went in and walked around.

Some areas charge a fee, but nothing special, they come out quickly.

"Taisho-style buildings are really romantic."

"To be precise, this should be a Meiji retro style."

Naruse asked his girlfriend to stand in front of the Red Brick Pavilion and took some pictures of her.

"At night, it seems that there will still be lights here."

"We can't see it."

"Well, let's continue shopping."

After walking for a while, they took a circular bus. In the morning, the two of them walked around the city, and stopped to rest when they were tired.

After noon, Naruse and Naoko returned to Morioka Station by bus.

The two are going to settle their lunch here.

It was a long holiday, and Naruse wanted to go to Shenglouge, a representative restaurant of Morioka Cold Noodles. There was a long queue, and it seemed that he couldn’t get a turn within an hour, so he had to turn around and go to another nearby store.

Like Shenglouge, although this shop is more famous for its specialty cold noodles, its main business is barbecue.

The two ate while grilling meat, and then came a bowl of cold noodles that were slightly sour and spicy, which was very satisfying.

"The taste is really good."

"Yes."

After filling their stomachs, the two continued to wander around. Anyway, it is very convenient to go everywhere by taking the city loop bus.

They walked around until after three o'clock in the afternoon, and the two of them came to the last stop. Naruse walked around until now and suddenly remembered Sakura Ishikiri.

The huge cherry blossom tree stretches its branches and leaves around, the branches are pink and blooming, very gorgeous, but the roots of the tree are based on a huge rock.

The ancient cherry blossom tree located in front of the Iwate District Court is more than 300 years old and has been designated as a national natural monument as early as a century ago.

"More than 300 years, it's really old."

"Ten me and ten Shangzi add up, and the age is about the same as this tree."

"Wow... the ancient feeling is even stronger."

After seeing the Ishikiri cherry blossoms, Morioka City is almost the same.

The two of them had nothing else to go, and it was getting late, and it was time to go home.

"go home."

"uh-huh."

I went back to the station to pick up my luggage, and bought some souvenirs at the station. The two took the Tohoku Shinkansen, headed north, and returned to Aomori.

It took another four to five 10 minutes to go back to Tianjin.

"Next time you travel far, you can come here by motorcycle." While waiting for the bus, Naruse said so.

Shangzi smiled, "Yes."

However, where to park the motorcycle is also a question that needs to be considered.

While Naruse was thinking about it, the bus home finally came.

When I got home, it was already half past five in the afternoon.

After running for a day, Shangzi was a little tired, so she lay down on the sofa when she got home, watching Naruse sort out the presents she brought back and pack them separately.

"The light one, I'll give it to her when she comes over at night. I'll send Haixing and Senjian's first, and I'll go to the supermarket by the way."

The refrigerator at home is also empty.

Shangzi lay on the sofa and looked at him, "I'll go with Chunhai."

"Do you still have strength?"

"I'm not that tired..."

Naruse lowered his head and kissed, "Shangko should lie down for a while, I'll be right back."

"Ok."

Going out with a gift, I went to Mori's bookstore, and she happened to be right here.

Naruse went straight in and gave her a souvenir.

"For you."

"Souvenir?"

"Ah."

Sen Jian took it.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a black-haired girl standing among the bookshelves next to him. Naruse glanced casually, and then froze.

"..."

It turned out to be a starfish.

"...you dyed your hair back?"

Hai Xing held his black hair and looked at him, "What do you think?"

it sucks...

Naruse suddenly missed her blonde hair very much.

"not bad."

"Really?"

He doesn't want to talk.

And she grabbed the hair again and pulled it down, revealing the original long golden hair under the net.

"..."

It turned out to be a wig.

"Then I'm going to dye it back to black..."

"do not."

"Eh?"
