Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 458
After dinner, Morimi stayed at the bookstore for a while.The sky gradually darkened, and she was ready to go home.

"I'm going back."

"Be careful on the road."

She got on the bicycle and said hello to her family again. She kicked off and followed her body forward.

Passing by Maki Hotel, Maki Seiichiro stood at the door and quickly noticed her and followed her with his eyes.

She had no choice but to stop and say hello, and then looked at the room upstairs.

The windows were closed and the lights were off. She glanced into the hotel below and found no sign of Starfish.

Are you taking a shower, she wondered in her heart.

"Haixing's words have already passed first." Seiichiro said.

Mori Jian was startled, "Huh?"

"I said Haixing has gone to Kazuha's house first. She went out 10 minutes ago." Seiichiro explained.

She was very surprised, "Going to my house?"

Seeing her reaction, Seiichiro was also stunned, "Didn't you say hello to Kazuha today?"

"No……"

She didn't see Haixing all day today. She only saw her come out and say a few words in the group.

Haixing wanted to find her, but why didn't he come to the bookstore or send a message and just went to her house?

Seiichiro glanced at the bicycle under her and said, "If Kazuha goes over now, he should still be able to catch up with her... Although Haixing was just going to your house. I'm going to disturb you again today."

"Ah... um."

Morijian was confused for a moment, but without saying much, he said goodbye, then kicked off his feet and continued to ride back.

And until she rode home, she didn't see the starfish.

"Starfish—starfish—"

She shouted twice, but there was no response from inside or outside the yard.

After waiting for a while, she stopped the car and walked into the house.

Starfish is not Naruse or Hikari Takigawa, he won't hide in the dark and scare her. If he doesn't respond, that means he didn't come.

She didn't see her on the road either.

Morimi thought for a while and took out his phone.

Yiye: Where are you?

A few minutes passed without reading the message, and naturally there was no response.

So she called again.

The phone was vibrating on the sofa, but Haixing, who was taking a bath happily and nervously in the bathroom, was completely unaware of it.

woohoo-

Hot water poured down, washing her body clean.

Turning off the shower, Haixing put her hair up, squinted her eyes and came to the bathtub to test the water temperature.

"Perfect~"

She sat in the bathtub and let the hot water slowly immerse her body until her chest.

Looking at the soft light above her head, she leaned back and let her body relax.

The first time was new, the second time was familiar. She spent a long time just entering the door yesterday, and today she was bold enough to take a bath in his bathroom with the light turned on.

After all, it was the messages she saw in the group today that gave her a sufficient sense of security.

——At least in the last three or four days, they will definitely not come back.

After being in a daze for a while, the smile on her face gradually disappeared again.

Can she only come over secretly when they are not at home?

Then why did she come here... just to smell him and feel the atmosphere of his life here?
wow-

Starfish sat up again, hugged his legs, and sat in the bathtub feeling melancholy.

At a certain moment, her arms loosened and her body fell back, letting herself sink to the bottom of the water.

The lights swayed with the waves, everything above the water became turbulent and distorted, and the already blurry world became even more unclear.

She suddenly remembered the time when she and everyone were playing in the river of Nanmuchuan.

At that time, her eyesight was still normal. Even if she was soaked in water, she could clearly see the blue, cloudless sky above her head.

And when she turned her head, she could see him or Hikari lying on the river bed next to her, looking at her with her mouth puffed up and blowing bubbles.

It was also summer in July and August, about the same time as now...

A casual breath could not sustain her underwater memories for too long.

"Wow...cough cough cough!"

Soaking her head in the water for half a minute made her sober up.Starfish lay down on the side of the bathtub. The area that was not soaked by hot water was slightly cold. She got used to it for a while, and then thought about the chat in the group in the afternoon.

"I also want to go to the hot springs..."

When soaking in hot springs, the stones next to the pool are also very hot, making it very comfortable to lie down or lean on.

How long has it been since she took a bath in a hot spring?
The last time I soaked in a hot spring was when I was at Ginzan Hot Spring at the end of last year, right?

So far this year, I have never taken a bath in a hot spring.

Everyone except her...no, Kazuyo seemed to be the same as her.

Her thoughts drifted further and further, and she had forgotten what she was thinking about at the beginning. Now she was just thinking about whether there was any hot springs nearby that were not too far away.

Yes, it was even very close, just a few kilometers away. She often passed by there when delivering wine.

But when she thought about it, she couldn't get the slightest interest out of it.

It's a hot spring, yes, but it doesn't feel like a hot spring at all.

And what the so-called "hot spring feeling" is, she herself can't explain clearly.

I was soaking in the bath and thinking about the hot springs. After a while, the starfish climbed out of the bathtub.

Opening the door and looking at the spinning washing machine, she was stunned for a moment.

She almost forgot that she didn't bring a change of clothes at all.Because they were summer clothes, I felt they would dry quickly after washing them, so I simply took the clothes I changed out to wash.

Have you been too bold...

Naked, she stared at the washing machine in a daze for a while. She took out a towel and prepared to dry herself first. She held it in front of her and smelled it before doing so.

Can't smell him...

She changed another towel, but the result was still the same. There was still a faint smell of laundry detergent left after cleaning.

She could only take a towel and wipe it on her body.

Looking at the washing machine that was still spinning, she walked to the bathroom door again, opened the door, and poked her head outside.

Of course no one.

Since no one...

Plop, plop!
The heartbeat suddenly accelerated a lot.

After wiping his body again and almost drying it, Haixing took a deep breath and walked out of the bathroom naked.

She only dared to turn on the bathroom light, but it was still dark outside.

Ahhh...

Her heart beat faster and faster, she screamed in her heart, and her face became hotter and hotter.

Walking naked in the dark living room, the strong stimulation made her unable to move forward and walked very slowly, but this became another kind of stimulation.

She didn't know where she was going. When she reached the sofa, she didn't stop and continued walking elsewhere.

If someone saw her like this, she might as well die.

If he still saw it...

His breathing suddenly became faster, and Starfish crossed his legs, trying to suppress the strange feeling that suddenly appeared.

"……Well!"

A light suddenly lit up on the sofa and hit the ceiling. Starfish was startled.

After calming down for a while, she struggled to support her hands and feet and crawled to the other side of the sofa.

Picking up the phone, it was a message from Morimi.Before that, she made two phone calls to her.

One leaf: 1
This is the latest news.

The above messages all asked where she was.

Why are you asking this all of a sudden?

His brain was still in a state of relaxation. Haixing was stunned for a while, and then suddenly became nervous.

Did Kazuye know that he was pretending to go to her house to spend the night?
After more than ten minutes, what does it mean to send a 1...

Buzz buzz——

Kazuye: It’s not interesting, just to test my guess.

Kazuha: Now I see it.

"..."

Haixing opened his mouth and his hands shook.

She turned around and saw a face shining in the darkness outside the window, her glasses reflecting the light from the phone screen.

Kazuha: Open the door.
