After the car stopped, Natsume followed the other students out of the car, and a hot spring inn appeared in front of him, built in a multi-story building not far from the sea.

The combination of Chinese and Western architectural styles does not seem unusual, but has a refreshing feeling.

The road leading to the gate is made of stone, and the carpet of different colors of stones is used to give foot massage to those who pass by.

The boss and the other waiters standing in front of the door were talking to the teacher who arrived first, probably about the room and the food.

The salty sea breeze blows from the left side from time to time, and the rustling of leaves in the forest sea and the music of summer cicadas form a cheerful song.

Many of the students were interested in the surrounding scenery, but since it was not a free activity, all of them were gathered together by the teacher, waiting for the allocation of rooms and rest.

Standing in the middle of the line, C.C. with candy on the left and Kurumi with a sunhat on the right, the two of them also showed a lot of interest in this destination.

Coming here, Natsume was a little apprehensive about how things would develop.

After all, before this, it should have been the events of Gokawa Koto, not the two elves of Hachimai, so the situation at this moment shows that the rhythm of the story has been changed by Natsume.

It doesn't matter anymore.

No matter what kind of elf appears, as long as you are in love, it is your own victory.

"Human, this thing."

"Where did you buy it from? Is there candy apples for sale nearby? ”

"Before you get in the car."

Thank you for allowing you to take it to the car.

As she spoke, Natsume took out a wet tissue from her bosom and handed it to C.C., asking her to use it to wipe off the sticky sugar that had melted away from the weather.

But it backfired. C.C. after getting this cold tissue. Set aside the candy apples. Rubbing his face against the wet wipes in his hand.

"Cool, human, one more."

"Don't act like you're drinking! Your hands are all sugar, give it to me, and I'll give you wet wipes. ”

"Roger."

He took the candy apples from C.C.'s hand and gave them all to C.C., who seemed to be afraid of heat.

Now her face is slightly red, and she looks crumbling, so almost the whole person is leaning on Natsume. Wipe your cheeks and neck with a wet tissue.

There was no way, Natsume looked at the apple candy that had all melted away from the red sugar coating, and planned to find a place to dispose of it.

I was only asked for two bites of applecandy, and the small tooth marks still remain on it.

However, at present, free movement is prohibited, and Natsume, who is standing in the crowd, can only wait.

The black sugar liquid stuck to Natsume's right hand along the stick, and the index and middle fingers became sticky, exuding a slightly fragrant sweetness.

Changing hands, Natsume looked at the index and middle fingers of his right hand, and was about to find C.C. to get a wet tissue, but on the way, he was grabbed by Kurumi next to him.

"It doesn't have to be that much trouble."

Hold Natsume's right hand. Kurumi opened his mouth and took his index and middle fingers in.

Huh?!

Natsume said that he wanted to pull it out, but there was not enough space. It was difficult for the body to move, and C.C. leaned on himself, so he couldn't act for a while.

Kurumi's mouth is very warm, different from the heat of summer, and the tongue is soft. The head runs over the fingertips, and the light touch that comes and goes at that time is addictive.

"Kurumi, that...... Hmm~ Ah, wait a minute, I can solve it myself. ”

I always feel that this statement is a little strange.

It's like Natsume's fingers stirring in a girl's mouth, with a little shame and excitement, Natsume's index and middle fingers bend in Kurumi's mouth.

Narrowing his eyes slightly, he opened his mouth and let Natsume withdraw his right hand.

With the remnants of saliva in between, it swept through the air.

"Thank you for your hospitality, it feels sweet."

"Really? Then thank you C.C. ”

Natsume, who pretended to be calm, responded, this time he planned to protect himself from being stuck to his left hand by the sugar solution.

"By the way, Natsume shouldn't lick his index and middle fingers when he goes back, I'm a little embarrassed."

Kurumi deliberately made a twisted appearance, and Natsume coughed reflexively.

"It'll wash off in a minute!"

Although the movements of the two were not loud, and the sound was muffled by the noisy other noises, many students still saw the interaction between the three of them.

The boys-

"It's so hot! It's hot, it's too hot! It's so hot that I want to kill someone! ”

"Do you always think the air here is so sweet? But do you use gasoline to ignite them? ”

"As a member of the FFF group, a secret meeting will be held today to solve the biggest enemy at the moment!"

"It's so hot, I want to buy scarecrows and nails and mallets!"

Even if it's so hot, can you not look at me and say?

Natsume tried to avoid the boys' gaze and wiped her hands with the wet tissue from C.C.'s face.

The room assigned by Natsume is the innermost on the second floor, and because there are many rooms, most of the students live alone.

I looked at the time, and it was already afternoon when I came here, and after wasting time to prepare, distribute, and admonish, it was already night.

I remember that the teacher said that the time for girls to take a bath is from half past seven to half past nine, and the time for boys is from ten to twelve o'clock.

With a yukata and towel in hand, Natsume double-checked the current time.

At nine-thirty, the girls had just finished soaking.

If you walk to the hot springs from here, you should be fine.

There are indoor temperature zones and open-air baths, so Natsume plans to try an open-air bath.

I went down to the first floor, followed the instructions to the undressing room of [Men's Bath], and walked in wrapped in a towel after getting ready.

It was empty, and it looked like the girls had finished bathing.

After rinsing off the shampoo and body soap from the shower head at the entrance, Natsume walked into the hot spring.

The gentle pool water submerged near his chest, and his whole body relaxed to the limit.

Very comfortable.

The mist fills the space, and since it is an open-air bath, you can see the stars and the sea in the distance.

As if infected by dark paint, the monochromatic world is reflected in the pupils, and the moonlight of the bright moon above the head also swayes down, covering the scenery that rises to the surface of the sea with a silvery veil.

"It's ......??!"

A girl's voice was heard, and the door was opened.

"It's an open-air bath! Come on in! ”

"Oh! It feels good! ”

"It's disgusting."

Take a good bath.

In addition to the voices of the three girls, even the voices of Gokawa Koto and Kurumi appeared with them.

Very good.

The FLAG has been erected.

Natsume hid behind the stones, his face bitter and excited, and helpless. (To be continued......)
