If it weren't for Naoto Yoshiwara, Nana Hoshino would have wanted to climb to the top of Mount Fuji alone in the snow. After crossing the 8th station, Nana Hoshino felt that even if she walked on the footprints left by Naoto Yoshihara, every leg lift would still become a severe test. She gasped for breath, her cheeks flushed, while suppressing the desire to breathe in a big breath, while being careful not to suck too much frozen air into her lungs, her small body swayed in the wind and snow, and the hiking bag she was carrying had already been forcibly taken away by Naoto Yoshihara.

Nishikujo Ruri followed behind and looked at Naoto Yoshihara's back, his eyes gradually softened - this man is also a person who really likes children, this kind of person can't be a vicious person, he probably thought too much about it before.

Generally, families take their children out to play, if they encounter bad weather, even if the children are very eager to ask for it, most of the parents will angrily scold "why are you so disobedient", and then there is no then.

The man didn't say a word, packed up and set off—it was obvious that he was familiar with the snowy road, and that there was nothing new for him to climb the snowy mountains, but the child wanted to go to the top of the mountain to see, so he opened the road in front of him like an old donkey, and the cold wind blew hard and did not complain.

It's not that you really spoil children, you won't be like this!

You must know that they are not related by blood, and it is indeed very difficult to achieve such a point. But on the other hand, after all, there is no blood relationship, he is hurting the child, but when the child grows up a little bit and the love is just beginning, how will he feel about this feeling?

Is it really appropriate for him to be a big man with a little girl?

Ruri Nishikujo was looking at Naoto Yoshiwara's back and thinking wildly, but he stopped in his steps and began to look around. After a while, he turned back and shouted to himself, "It seems to be a depression in front of me, I don't know how big it is, do you know how to get around?"

Nana Hoshino tilted her body and looked behind Naoto Yoshihara, only to see that the front was flat and flat, surrounded by wind, snow and dust, and asked in confusion, "Where can you see that it is a depression?"

Naoto Yoshihara glanced down at her and explained, "The snow is suddenly starting to soften here...... The wind from the mountains sometimes blows the snow and accumulates into the depression and fills it up. It looks like it's on the same level as the normal ground, but the snow is scattered and scattered underneath, almost hollow, and anyone who doesn't pay attention will sink into it. It is generally called a snow nest, or a deeper one, it is called a snow valley, and if you fall into it, you will not die, but it is very troublesome. ”

Ruri Nishikujo looked around, she had been to Mt. Fuji many times, but it was not easy to estimate the location under the snow. She silently calculated the distance she had traveled in her heart, and shouted to Naoto Yoshiwara: "There are many terrains like this above the 8th station, if you have to go around it, you have to find a hiking trail again! These depressions are all formed by magma, not too deep, let's go a little farther and go directly!"

She was used to being in charge, and after shouting, she didn't wait for Naoto Yoshihara to agree, so she began to put the rope between her and Nana Hoshino long.

Naoto Yoshihara thought about it and thought it would be okay, so he smiled at Nana Hoshino while putting the long rope down: "I'll walk in front, you and I will follow five or six steps apart, so as not to fall into the pit together." ”

If it's just him and Nishikujo Ruri, then this rope doesn't need to be tied, there are no deep valley cracks on Mount Fuji, and it's great if you don't reach your chest at most when you encounter a snow nest, but Nana Hoshino can't, she's too short, one doesn't pay attention to it, she doesn't have a top and the wind sweeps away the traces, so there's nowhere to find her.

Nana Hoshino nodded a little puzzled, and watched Naoto Yoshihara take the lead, and after a while, the rope tightened, and she followed. She tried her best to walk along the place where Naoto Yoshiwara walked, and her feet were as gentle as possible, but at this time she was far away from Naoto Yoshihara, and there was no one to block the wind and snow for her.

She wanted to grab something, but she reached out to touch the snow that was not forced, and immediately her eyes were dark, and there was only a faint light in her vision, and she opened her mouth to scream but was filled with a large mouthful of snow, but she was still waiting for her to start panicking, and her waist was tightened again, and the whole person flew up uncontrollably, and instantly flew back to the ground and saw the light again.

She raised her hand to wipe her face, but saw that it was Naoto Yoshihara and Ruri Nishikujo who were pulling the rope hard and "stretching" her out.

Naoto Yoshihara laughed happily, dragged her forward a few steps before loosening the rope at the same time as Nishikujo Ruri, putting her back on the snow, squeezing her eyes and walking forward again.

This long distance is not easy to walk, Yoshihara Naoto took the lead in exploring the road and fell into the snow several times, and even shaving and chopping himself out of it, Nishikujo Ruri walked behind and fell into the snow nest twice, but Hoshino Nana only suffered once.

This section of the road was very slow, it took time not to mention, and it was very tiring.

Nana Hoshino's physical strength is also basically exhausted, walking in the snow is already cold and strenuous, and her physical strength is still far from that of an adult - it is already very powerful to be able to climb above the eighth station on her own at the age of thirteen.

Naoto Yoshihara planned to carry her on his back, but her name for stubborn donkeys was well deserved, and she insisted on completing the mountain on foot, refusing to let her feet off the ground. In the end, Naoto Yoshiwara had to pull the rope vigorously, and it took nearly two hours to drag her to the top of the mountain like a dead donkey.

Nana Hoshino gasped for breath, her little face flushed unnaturally, and she lay on her back in the snow as if she had died once. Naoto Yoshiwara and Ruri Nishikujo are fine, and even Naoto Yoshihara is still jumping around - he originally thought that he would carry Nana Hoshino on his back, carry Yayoi Satsuki, and drag Miki Momonomiya up, but now he only dragged a dead donkey, and he felt that he had earned it.

Mt. Fuji has erupted many times, forming more than one crater, the larger one with a diameter of more than 500 meters, and the small one with a diameter of nearly 300 meters, which together form an ellipse. Therefore, the summit of Mt. Fuji is flat from a distance, and it looks like a blooming lotus flower from the air, but when you climb it, it is a continuous ring of ridges, and depending on the trailhead, the summit that can be reached is different.

Nishikujo Ruritsu's road turns from Gotsunguchi at Lake Kawaguchi to Yoshidaguchi, and this is because there are many children, so try to get the car to a relatively high position, and if you go directly into the mountain along Gothallguchi, you will have to abandon the car and walk at about 1,500 meters - then maybe the five of you will be climbing together in the snow at this time!

As soon as she stepped on the top of the mountain, Ruri Nishikujo warmly thanked Naoto Yoshiwara for accompanying her here, and then took out a black pamphlet and said, "I'll go to the shrine to pay homage and pray for blessings, and then stamp it, and wait for you here in an hour and a half." ”

Naoto Yoshiwara said yes and watched her walk along the ridge in the direction of Mt. Asami.

Nana Hoshino was also a little relieved at this time, she was dressed a little like a bear, she got up clumsily and tiptoed to look around, and asked uncertainly, "Is this ...... Hisushi Shigaku?"

Naoto Yoshiwara smiled: "I don't know, these peaks look the same in my eyes, we just need to know that we have reached the top." ”

Nana Hoshino looked around, pulled his arm and said, "I want to go up there." ”

"Then let's go!" Naoto Yoshihara took a look at a lonely peak not far away, and led Nana Hoshino to pass carefully, and then chose a leeward place to sweep the snow and let her stay, and put the big hiking bag on the ground by himself.

Nana Hoshino began to look down on the whole "world" and enjoy the sweet fruit after eating enough bitterness. Although the snow gradually began to stop at this point, she still couldn't see far, but she still watched with great interest.

She did it, although she borrowed some strength, but whether she walked to the top of the highest mountain in Dongying, or in the most demanding season, this is an achievement!

Naoto Yoshihara took out a bag from her bag, pressed her on the backpack when she had seen enough, and said with a smile: "Change your socks, your feet will freeze if you get wet." ”

There are specially purchased hiking snow boots, but there will inevitably be some snow on the way to the top, which will be very uncomfortable for your feet - if you really want to make it to the top safely, you have to come in August and September, when the snow is mostly gone. On the other hand, it's a lot less comfortable to climb up, so you can only go up to the shrine and visit the park, and then look at the big pit in the middle, which is not a mountain climb at all.

There are only two of them here - tourists don't come this season, and mountaineers will grope their way according to the map for safety, and without Naoto Yoshiwara, they go straight and fast, so there is no sound of people at the top of the mountain at this time, not even birdsong.

In the case of only two people, Nana Hoshino won't have trouble with Naoto Yoshiwara, she honestly sat on her backpack and reached out to take off her shoes, and Naoto Yoshihara naturally reached out to help, and found that her socks were really a little wet, her little feet were cold, and she felt a little distressed.

He covered Nana Hoshino with a pair of big hands, and only when his little feet were hot did he put cotton socks on her, and then put on a layer of woolen socks, and then pulled out the insoles and replaced them with new ones, and finally put them on her feet.

Nana Hoshino didn't make any noise to come by herself, watching Naoto Yoshihara bow his head and half-kneeling there worrying about her, a pair of fox eyes full of tenderness, just reached out and gently patted the residual snow off his hat, and warmed his hand into the hat to warm his ears.

Naoto Yoshiwara looked up and smiled, and went to change her for another shoe.

Nana Hoshino covered his ears and thought to herself, "This is amazing, three months ago we didn't even know each other, we didn't even know that there was another person on earth, but now that he is holding my feet, I won't even feel shy." Yes, we are the ones who are going to be together forever, and there is no point in being shy...... It's just that this guy would be better if he was more well-behaved. ”

Naoto Yoshihara put on Nana Hoshino's shoes, checked her warmth again, and it was a little strange to see that she had been honest all the time - he thought that Nana Hoshino would definitely refuse to do this, isn't he tired?

He's doing his duty--the obligation to take care of Nana Hoshino-he's never been a father when he's grown up, he really doesn't have a clue how to be a good father, if he can choose, it's better to tie up a few people for Uesugi Xiang!

As for disciplining Hoshino Nana, not to mention, he himself is a bastard plus a third-level half-literati, how can he manage children, Hoshino Nana is about the same as him.

Therefore, he can only try to help Nana Hoshino do what she wants. Daughters should be pampered, as the old saying goes, it should be fine, right?

Now it was the first time in Hoshino Nana had climbed a mountain in her life, and she didn't need to say that Naoto Yoshihara also knew that she definitely didn't want to have any regrets, so he kept her moving all the way, and dragged her up as a dead donkey, and she couldn't let her have an accident or get sick.

It's not easy to be a father!

After making sure that Nana Hoshino would not freeze, Naoto Yoshihara asked with concern, "Are you tired?" Don't worry, the downhill is a big slope, we just need to slide down, it won't take much effort." ”

"I'm much better now, you can also sit down and rest!" Nana Hoshino put down her backpack and thoughtfully asked Naoto Yoshihara to sit next to her, leaning on his shoulder and asking, "Don't take care of me, are you cold?"

Naoto Yoshiwara looked into the distance and chuckled, "Don't worry about me, I'm thicker than you think." After laughing, he turned to asking, "How does it feel to defeat a famous mountain range for the first time in your life?"

"It feels good, I realize that the world is so big, I don't know enough, and I'm starting to understand my mother a little bit...... People will be confused when they stop in place, confused will be troubled and painful, and only when they move towards a goal and their ideals will they be happy!"

Naoto Yoshihara gently hugged Nana Hoshino, and said with a smile: "That's right! Life is actually very short, if you don't do what you want to do, you will definitely regret it very much before you die, so never care what others think of you, just do what you want to do...... Your mom did a good job of that, she went after her ideals, and although I thought she was stupid, she didn't care. ”

Nana Hoshino nodded and said softly, "I will also have my own ideals, and it will take me a lifetime to achieve it!"

Naoto Yoshihara smiled and didn't speak, only to hear Nana Hoshino say again: "You'll stay with me and watch me work hard, right? Anyway, you don't have anything you want to achieve, then my ideals can be divided into half of you! In the future, everything I have can be divided into half of you, whether it is money, fame, or status, you can get half, so you will accompany me, right?"

Yoshihara Naoto looked at her strangely, and said with a smile: "What do I want to do with that? My money is enough to spend, and I want a reputation that is useless, and I'm afraid that others will pay too much attention to me! If you don't have to, I'll be with you until you grow up...... When you're older, you'll be able to choose your own life!"

Nana Hoshino blinked and asked, "No matter how I choose, will you agree?"

Naoto Yoshihara laughed and said, "Of course, your life is up to you, no matter what you choose in the future, I agree!"

Nana Hoshino looked at him with satisfaction, knowing that he had always been a man of words, and then looked into the distance, thinking, "This stupid dog, I really have to look at him, and I casually made a promise...... When I am an adult, I will choose to be with you forever, and then I will see what you have to say!"

Nana Hoshino no longer talked about this topic, but squinted her eyes and swept the smiling Naoto Yoshiwara with her afterglow, the sly light faintly shining in the corner of her eyes, like seeing a stupid pig about to fall into a trap.

The wind lifted the snow and ice into the air, and the clouds were dispersing, and a ray of sunlight was shining through the earth. The sunlight reflected the tiny particles of ice and snow in mid-air, tearing out a looming rainbow.

Under the rainbow, there is a pair of "father and daughter" who rely on each other, or a man and a little girl who will bury him by his side even if he dies - this has nothing to do with love, it's just that there are too few people in life who can be trusted!
