"Really... Shingo. ”

"Love, love-chan is here, come in."

In a Japanese-style private hot spring cabin, Shingo Harano looked at Ai Fukuhara, who was wearing a white bathrobe, nervously revealing half of her delicate little face from behind the door.

"Hey."

Before she could soak in the hot springs, her face turned rosy beforehand, but she still mustered up the courage to walk in.

Shingo Harano bare his upper body, and slowly dip his foot into the hot spring water to test the temperature, and after feeling that it was acceptable, he lowered his body as well.

"The temperature is just right, so let's try it."

Looking at Ai Fukuhara, who was too nervous, Shingo Harano also forcibly made himself more natural to relieve the embarrassment.

"Hmm."

Ai Fukuhara watched Shingo Harano's movements and learn to get off the hot spring bath according to the gourd drawing.

"It's so comfortable, is the hot spring water hot all the time?"

"Well, because it's groundwater that is heated for some reason and then spews out with the change in geology, it's always hot."

Looking at Ai Fukuhara's blushing little face, he was a little surprised, and he explained the reason.

Nowadays, it is the middle of winter in the island country, and the wind is cold, so it is good to want to soak in the hot springs at this time.

But if you want to lie in the open air in the open air of nature, the pool is full of greenery, coconut trees and many flowers that you don't understand, and you can enjoy it when you hear the birdsong.

The natural hot springs are not artificially mixed with the salty smell of sulfur, and they are pure and natural.

Take off your heavy clothes and soak your busy and tired brain in the hot springs, feel refreshed, your whole body is as delicate as a lover's fragrant kiss, close your eyes, and enjoy the comfortable and intimate feeling that nature brings you.

The "mixed bathing of men and women" in the island country can only be said to be a misunderstanding of being "misguided", and the so-called mixed bathing place for men and women is rare in the island country now, but it cannot be said that there is no one.

Some film and television programs or fan groups will use the gimmick of mixed bathing for men and women to increase ratings, where will there be mixed bathing for men and women in the island country, and what kind of customs and habits.

The mixed bathing regulations of the island country are that the people of the island country love hot springs, and there are many hot springs in the island country as well.

In principle, hot springs are one of the public baths, and in Tokyo there are rules for public baths: Men and women over 10 years old are not allowed to mix bathing, which translates to the prohibition of mixed bathing for men and women over 10 years old.

This also applies to couples, which means that bathing between couples in Tokyo is also prohibited in principle, and I am deeply aware of the wonder of the laws of the island country.

If you take a mixed bath, you can only be of the same sex or need nursing care, but despite this rule, it is strange that you can see many family baths in the island country of Tokyo.

Many inns (hot spring inns or hotels) in the island country have private bathing rooms, and mixed bathing is basically allowed.

In 1948, the island country established a hotel industry law, which stipulated: shared baths, men and women over 10 years old are not allowed to mix baths. However, there is no mention of a private bathroom.

I have just talked about some of the regulations of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government of the island country, but the regulations of each local government in the island country are different, and the basic legal basis for this is the Public Bathing Law.

As a general rule, public baths in each municipality must have separate bathrooms and changing rooms for men and women, and according to the law, there are no public baths where mixed bathing is allowed, and even if there are, they will be abolished.

The idea of naked people bathing in mixed baths is an exaggeration, and some municipalities require swimsuits to enter. In Osaka, it is permissible for families to bathe together, and Hyogo Prefecture has amended some regulations to stipulate that only families can bathe together.

Originating from the wilderness, the island country's hot springs were used in the wild, and there was no distinction between men and women when bathing, and artificial hot springs and bathing beaches were very popular in the Edo period.

In 1791, Edo, the capital of the island nation at the time, explicitly forbade mixed bathing between men and women, but mixed bathing was still the norm and became popular among the general public.

By the Meiji period, mixed bathing was considered a barbarian practice, and the island nation strengthened the rules regarding mixed bathing, but some places, such as small cities, continued the practice of mixed bathing.

Some people in the island country also believe that mixed bathing in the island country is one of the characteristics of the hot springs in the island country, but recently, with the problem of customs and discipline, mixed bathing for men and women has gradually become a thing of the past.

An old man from an island country once said: Now when you go to a mixed bathing bath, almost all of them are of the same sex. Because with the development of society, the awareness of some hygiene, morality, and morality has improved, and mixed bathing of different genders has still become a thing of the past.

As a word of advice, if someone really wants to go to the island country to experience mixed bathing, forget it, because it won't be what you imagined.

However, it is still possible to bathe in a hot spring with a private room like this one, and both of them are dressed in important places.

"It's so hot, how do I feel hotter and hotter."

Exhaled slightly, and fanned the air in front of his face with his hand.

"Has Ai-chan ever been in a hot spring?"

Shingo Harano said with some doubts.

Ai Fukuhara said with a somewhat humble face: "No, I used to go to the public bathroom to wash my body." ”

"It's okay, we can come here as often as we like."

Yuan Ye smiled, and could see that she was a little embarrassed.

"Hmm"

"Actually, it's best to soak in the hot spring for about 30 minutes, and you'll get dizzy after a long time."

Feeling that the atmosphere was a little stagnant, Shingo Harano changed the topic and said.

"But this feeling is very comfortable, how can I get dizzy."

"It's like drinking, if you drink too much and get dizzy, you don't know when it started."

"Like Shingo last time?"

Ai Fukuhara blinked and stuck out her little tongue.

"Ahem, it was an accident, I definitely won't do it again."

I was a little embarrassed to see him, and I felt like I was back in the scene back then.

I gently flicked the water surface with my hand, and looked at Ai Fukuhara who couldn't see clearly when I was covered by the fog.

"Ai-chan."

"What's wrong?"

"Have you ever thought about which university to go to?"

"No, before... I just thought about how life could be better, but I didn't think about it. ”

"Let's take the entrance examination to Tokyo University together."

"Huh? May I? ”

Listening to the unquestionable tone in Harano's voice, Ai Fukuhara was startled by his ambition.

"However, it is very difficult to get into the university."

"Ai-chan's academic ability is in the top ten in the grade, so you have to be confident in yourself."

Shingo Harano thought she didn't have self-confidence, so she deliberately encouraged her.

"I'm not worried about myself, I'm worried... You. ”

"Ah, hahaha, I'll do it, I will."

It turned out that I didn't have confidence in myself! Is my grades so unsightly?

It seems that yes, it was originally the tail of the crane in the class, but he hasn't taken the test for a long time, so now no one knows his real results.

"Then it's agreed."

"I'll listen to you."
