Hakodate, the southernmost city in Hokkaido, is separated from Aomori, the northernmost city in Honshu, by the famous Tsugaru Strait, an international waterway.

In other words, although the waterway between Hokkaido and Honshu is extremely narrow in terms of map distance, the middle channel is open to ships from all over the world, including warships carrying guns of various sizes.

The International Convention on the Sea stipulates that the territorial sea is 12 nautical miles, and the strait can be treated as an inland sea from a legal point of view, but according to the territorial sea law of the island nation, the width of the territorial sea is limited to 3 nautical miles in certain sea areas, such as the Soya Strait, the Tsugaru Strait, the East and West Channels of the Tsushima Strait, and the Osumi Strait...... This kind of self-severance rule should theoretically not come from one's own heart, and it can basically be determined that Mei Daddy is working.

After all, the fleet in the Pacific Ocean seems to be the only one left.

Until the 90s, the connection between Honshu and Hokkaido was maintained by shipping routes, but in the 90s, the Seikan Tunnel, an undersea tunnel dug for nearly 25 years, was finally opened, and the railway connection between the two islands was realized.

Ten years from now, the Shinkansen between the two will also be connected...... However, the significance of these things to Miyadai, who refused to fly, was only that he didn't have to swim over there, and he could drill over faster.

From Kyoto to Aomori and from Aomori to Hakodate, it was already afternoon.

"Hokkaido...... Looks a little colder than I thought, senior sister, how do you feel? "Maybe it's because I've been in the cave for too long, and as soon as I walked out of the station, I felt that the air was a little biting.

Although it wasn't technically a high-latitude area, the white fog caused by his breath, the somewhat gloomy sky, and the trivial snow gave him the illusion that his eyelashes were going to frost immediately.

"Luckily, the wind is limited today." Mai Iwami, who was a little behind her, said, and despite what she said, she then folded her hands and sighed.

"Today's pantyhose is the right choice...... Let's go to the reserved hotel to drop off your luggage. Gong Daiyu looked her up and down and said.

With a light blue slim-fitting down jacket, a short black skirt and thick pantyhose, brown boots, and a burgundy velvet hat that wraps her long hair and most of her head together, she clearly understands the basic law: first, human patience is limited; Second, women who shiver with cold and pale faces are by no means "temperamental".

"No one would expose a large area of their skin in such weather, right? My temperature ...... It's definitely normal now. Iwami responded, saying that she was fortunate to have taken measures to keep warm, otherwise the sudden snowfall would definitely make her feel a mistake that she regretted.

"Well, I also don't think there's anything wrong with my senior sister's body temperature."

"Huh?" She almost blurted out the phrase "how do you know", can this kind of thing be secretly discovered without her own notice?

However, Gong Daiyu still sensed what she meant, so he turned his head sideways and said, "Lip color, senior sister's lip color is no different from usual." ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and gently slipped the second knuckle of his curled index finger on the side of his mouth.

“……”

At first glance, it may seem like there is nothing wrong with the way he came to his conclusions, but when you think about it, you ...... If you're fine, you're always observing what other people's lips are doing.

"It's very wet."

Although Gong Daiju never said such words, the senior sister always felt that he must be making up some similar descriptions in his head.

It can only be said that this is called having a heart.

The two continued towards the hotel they had booked.

…………

Despite its limited land area, the island nation has a rather complicated feeling in terms of administrative divisions. Hokkaido has a provincial government system rather than a prefectural system, and there are 14 "Promotion Bureaus" under the province, and then cities and counties under them.

Miyadai and the two will only stay in Hakodate for one night, and then continue north, making a circle before returning from here...... Although it is a fairly free trip, there is a limit to the amount of time.

"The snow outside is much lighter, how about it, do you want to go to Mt. Hakodate?" The senior sister looked at the weather outside the window and said.

"If the weather doesn't matter, of course I've been there once." Miyadai said.

After packing their luggage, it was already evening, and the two were eating at a small local restaurant, sitting opposite each other at a table with nothing more than grilled salmon and paella on the table.

The atmosphere here is very good, and the difference between B-class food and fine dining is probably this atmosphere, this restaurant reminds him of "Wakako sake", and the only thing that makes him unhappy is the tatami mats.

The first thing that comes to mind when you think of Hakodate is its night view, and if you're here, it's still necessary to take a look at it - whether it's a gimmick or a real thing, there are always all kinds of weird rankings in the world.

For example, the night view of Hakodate is called one of the "three major night views in the world" along with Naples and Hong Kong (which I increasingly find it quite "interesting" not to mention the name of the place in my country).

Mt. Hakodate is the only mountainous area in Hakodate...... It's said to be a mountainous area, but at 300 meters above sea level, it's just a big tomb, but the observatory on the vantage point is a great place to enjoy the night view.

After dinner, I first used public transportation to move, and then Gong Daiyu and my senior sister went to dig up the grave together...... No, I went hiking.

"The lights in winter always feel less bright and lively in summer, but in the darker night after losing the starry sky, temperature, and fishing boats on the sea, the street lights will be more prominent, not to mention the light snow now, it is a special refinement......" The senior sister pointed to the distance and said, her mood and spirit are very good, perhaps because of the stimulation of the cold air, the long-distance movement did not cause her to feel tired.

"Really?"

Gong Daizu responded in a low voice, to be honest, he thinks that most of the real scenes of famous things are not as good as those in the photos, and when he is on the scene, most of the time he will have a feeling of "exaggeration", and then he will feel a sense of loss...... In other words, he is really not very suitable for travel.

However, this time he didn't feel that way, the night view of the city didn't surprise him to any extent, but the infectious energy caused by the people around him brought everything out.

"Sota-kun, it is said that if you find words like 'like' and 'heart' in the night scene, you will become happy......," she said, turning her head again...... Considering the temperature at night, she was dressed a little more swollen now than when she just got out of the car.

The night view of the city seems to render the colors behind it.

"I can follow you, sleepwalking like a shadow chasing the light, I can wait at this intersection, whether you pass by or not, whenever I raise my head for you, even tears feel free...... Hey, it looks like a bit of a middle two. ”

"Huh?"

"I mean, I don't have to do anything superfluous, even if it's unfortunate enough to not find the words, but I'm actually lucky enough now......"
