(PS: Cold, fever, cough make me so sad!) ）

Looking at the cold moonlight of dawn falling from the window, Cornelia, who was lying on the tatami mat of the hotel, blinked her beautiful eyes lazily, and then stretched her waist, and her delicate body released a different kind of feminine temptation.

It's just a pity that no one watched such a beautiful scene.

"I can't sleep."

Cornelia yawned cutely, then lifted the quilt off her body and slowly stood up from the quilt on the tatami mat.

Under the cold moonlight, Cornelia stood up and clearly saw the red pupils in the same room as her, and they were still asleep.

Looking at the saliva that kept flowing from the corners of Poni's mouth and the happy expression on his face, needless to say, he must be dreaming about food.

And Akatomi and Tsukushi are fine, but the quilt on both of them was kicked aside by the two of them, and then there was no quilt on their bodies, and then the two people who instinctively felt cold were now hugging each other tightly and warming each other with each other's body temperature.

At the same time, looking at their sleeping appearance, I must be very satisfied with the pillow, stove and quilt in their arms.

You three guys.

Cornelia smiled and shook her head, then walked over to them, gently wiping the saliva from the corners of Bonnie's mouth with a tissue, and gently covering Hitomi and Tsukushi with the quilt.

Dad doesn't know what happened to the scouting, and now that the captain is gone, I must protect everyone.

Cornelia looked at the three of them as they slept. I thought so. But after sitting like this for a while. Cornelia was bored again.

Eventually, Cornelia walked out of the room with a light hand.

"Forget it, let's go take a dip in the hot spring when it's dawn and there aren't many people in the bathroom."

Humming a light tune, Cornelia went to the bathroom, took off her clothes, changed into a towel for soaking in the hot springs, and opened the door to the hot springs.

"Sure enough, no one?!"

Cornelia had just opened the door and glanced at the hot springs with her eyes. I found that there was no one sitting inside.

However, when I took a closer look, I suddenly found a distinctly female body, floating naked on top of the hot spring pool!

Dead?!

Cornelia had such a sentence in her mind, and then, Cornelia hurried to the hot spring pool, and shouted anxiously, "Hey, are you alright?" ”

However, just as Cornelia approached the 'floating corpse'. Because of the speed rushing, and the fact that I didn't expect the bottom of the hot spring pool to be slippery. The guide was slipped and then so close to the 'floating corpse' that Cornelia's entire body fell on top of the 'floating corpse'.

"Whoa!? cough cough cough cough ~~~"

Hit by this sudden blow and the feeling of suffocation when being thrown into the hot spring, the 'floating corpse' suddenly let out a scream, and then a carp stiffened and stood up from the hot spring pool in an instant.

Then, his eyes were very unkind to look at Cornelia, who caused this qiē.

At the same time, Cornelia looked at the original 'floating corpse' and was staring at her with unkind eyes at the moment, and then thinking of her previous behavior, Cornelia also felt very ashamed and embarrassed.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to."

"Ahem, I need an explanation."

The 'floating corpse' who spoke was also Taeko.

Originally, she came to this hot spring pool in the early morning for some reason to soak in the hot spring, and then, because she kept looking up at the stars in the sky, she felt uncomfortable in her neck, so she simply turned her back to soak in the hot spring to see the stars in the sky.

However, looking at it, Taeko went to sleep unconsciously because of the fatigue of the past few days, but she never thought that when she was sleeping with the fragrance, Taeko suddenly felt a pain in her body, followed by a large amount of water that continued to pour into her nostrils to produce a feeling of suffocation and choking.

Damn, she's messing with whom—

Dividing line-

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry just now, please forgive me!"

Cornelia is now constantly apologizing to Taeko in the bathroom in a yukata, after all, this happened just now, and Taeko is hungry and Cornelia is not in the mood to soak.

"Well, it's okay, you didn't mean to, and it was done with good intentions, and in general, there was something wrong with me."

Taeko waved her hand, and after the explanation of Cornelia just now, Taeko was no longer angry, after all, others did not mean it, but it was just an accident of some force majeure.

"My name is Taeko, and I'm traveling around the world with my grandmother to increase my knowledge and broaden my horizons."

"Travel around the world, oh, I'm Cornelia, and now as a protégé of the Imperial Fist Temple, I also practice martial arts all over the world, hehe, in this way, we are really destined in a way."

Cornelia told a lie with mixed truths, because her father (Gozzi) was from the Imperial Fist Temple, and then the martial arts she practiced were all from the Imperial Fist Temple, so she was right to say that she was a protégé of the Imperial Fist Temple.

Then, going around the world to kill those who make everyone unhappy can indeed be said to be a spiritual practice.

"Huh? The Imperial Fist Temple is so powerful! ”

Taeko looked at Cornelia in surprise, no wonder she felt that Cornelia was always full of power when she acted just now, it turned out to be like this.

Cornelia looked at the surprised Taeko, smiled reservedly, and then said some compliments. Suddenly. The atmosphere between Taeko and Cornelia became more harmonious.

"Come on. Taeko, here you are. ”

Cornelia, who felt thirsty while chatting, bought two bottles of milk from the waitress next to her, and handed one of them to Taeko.

"Cornelia, are you?"

"Take it, it's not worth a lot of money anyway, and besides, you should take it as an apology for my offense just now."

"Well, okay. Thank you. ”

Facing Cornelia who spoke like this, the helpless Taeko could only take the milk, and then took a sip gently, and suddenly, the smooth taste of the milk made Taeko praise.

"Hmm~~~ This milk is very delicious, and the food is also very delicious, this hotel is really good."

Seeing Taeko's obvious expression as a foodie like Akatomi and Poni, Cornelia couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

"Huh? What's wrong Cornelia, is there something wrong with me? ”

Taeko touched her face, then looked in the mirror again and found that there was nothing wrong with her face.

"I'm sorry. I wasn't laughing at you just now, but I just felt that you were like my friend. ”

"Friends? Ahhhh It's the companions who are with you at the door of the inn. ”

Taeko recalls the first time she saw Cornelia at the door of the hotel, and indeed, there were three girls her age around her at that time.

"Yes, yes, it's them, but now they're sleeping like dead pigs in their room."

Remembering the sleeping appearance of the three of them before, Cornelia teased them with kindness.

Looking at Cornelia's pretty face and irrepressible sense of joy and warmth when she mentioned her companion, Taeko couldn't help but feel a little envious of Cornelia.

"It's so nice to be a friend, you can be lively, I guess it's very happy."

"Huh?"

Facing Cornelia, who looked puzzled, Taeko's face showed a slight hint of loneliness, and at the same time, a trace of gloom flashed in her eyes.

"Growing up, I had almost no friends, although I was always with my grandmother, but"

"Now, Taeko, are you going to be staying here lately?"

"Well, I don't know, it depends on what my grandmother means, but that's probably true."

Taeko pondered for a moment, then nodded at Cornelia.

"Then if you don't dislike it, you can come to me at any time these days to chat, oh, we'll all be living here in the next few days, so, please advise, Taeko-chan."

"Well, thank you, Cornelia."

Looking at Cornelia, who looks like a big sister, she has never felt this emotion, and Taeko, who is also longing for this emotion, was captured in an instant.

After that, Cornelia and Taeko sat together, drinking milk, and began to gossip, and as they talked, they both felt that the other was very compatible with them.

Then, just as the two were chatting energetically, the red pupil happened to come over from the aisle.

"Sister Cole? So you're here, no wonder I can't find you in my room, but, who is this? ”

"Well, Akatomi, let me introduce you, this is a new friend I just met, her name is Taeko."

"Oh, hello, my name is Red Hitomi, please advise."

"You too, please advise, I'm Taeko."

Both Akatomi and Taeko introduced themselves, and then Akatomi opened the door to the hotel and walked out with unwavering steps.

Seeing this red pupil, Cornelia was puzzled, what was the red pupil doing to go out early in the morning? Didn't she know that it would be time for breakfast in a minute?

"Red Hitomi, it's going to be breakfast soon, aren't you looking forward to the food in this inn?"

"I know, Sister Cole. It's because I'm going to have breakfast, so I'm going to go out and exercise now to empty my stomach so that I can eat more, which is the proper etiquette for food! ”

The red pupil said to Cornelia very strictly, with that unwavering look, Cornelia was a little flustered, I don't know why she always felt that the red pupil, who was a foodie, would eat up all the food in this hotel.

Shouldn't I talk to the people at the hotel in advance and ask them to prepare more food?

Cornelia thought about it like this, and after thinking about it, she still felt that it was very necessary.

"Sister Cole is here, I'll exercise first."

Akatomi shook her hand at Cornelia and Taeko, and then ran outside without looking back, startling the pedestrians on the street, thinking that this little girl (Akatomi) had something very urgent.

Burst~~~

Sure enough, Cornelia's companion was also interesting, Taeko laughed as she thought to herself.

"Cornelia, next time, can you introduce me to the person you said is similar to me?"

"Oh, okay."

Cornelia smiled a little awkwardly, in fact, this time this person (red pupil) is ah. (To be continued......)
