Chapter Seventy-Six: The Book

The morning light is warm and warm, the sky is light, and the clear blue stretches to the farthest point of view, and the jagged buildings are intertwined.

In the distance, between the city and the sky, two planes are climbing.

The tram roared into the platform, and at the entrance of the passage, there was the melodious sound of a violin, the tune was light and romantic, as if a row of children were sitting on the edge of a high roof, blowing colorful soapy water bubbles down.

The sound of the train about to start, the sound of footsteps around me, and the tired voices of social animals poured into my ears.

"So! It's not my responsibility! ”

"Where are you going to play today?"

"Duck, this photo is good H~"

"I'll be at the office right away."

Finally, there is the voice that is still clear in the noise, as if it is ringing softly in the ears:

"I'm ready to board the bus, be careful not to get separated, Arisukawa-san."

"Hmm!"

The girl pursed her lips, pulled out of the dreamy and poetic world, and couldn't help but reach out and grab one of the straps of Keisuke Aoi's backpack.

"That way you won't get lost."

Sensing the weight on his shoulders, Keisuke Aoi smiled and said, "Let's go, let's go." ”

The train to Chiba Prefecture is about to leave the station.

Because the time to get on the bus was relatively early, both of them sat in their seats.

Asuka Arisugawa grasped the right distance and sat next to Keisuke Aoi, today she was wearing a white floral dress, and when she looked down, she could see her calves and bare feet outside.

Keisuke Ao, on the other hand, wore beach pants with a short-sleeved shirt printed with seagulls and sand.

The cap on his head was put into his backpack when he got into the car.

The Demon King smoothed the hair that had been compacted by the hat and said, "The hair seems to be a little long. ”

The slightly curly hair is almost covering the eyes, and if you have to wear a hat, it is really uncomfortable.

"It's still very handsome." Asuka Arisugawa praised.

"Do you need me to compliment you too?"

Hearing this, Asuka Arisugawa pursed his lips and shook his head with a smile.

The train starts slowly, and the picture outside the window is gradually left behind, and it takes more than an hour to get from Shinjuku to Chiba.

Keisuke Aoi chatted with Arisukawa, who was still a little nervous, and then took out the book he "snatched" from Hoshino and flipped through it.

The title of the book is The Moon and Sixpence.

Asuka Arisugawa has obviously read the book, and the literary girl can't wait to ask him what he thinks of it.

Qing Keisuke raised the book and said that he had just spent the first chapter of the tedious and boring, and when he came to the second chapter, he hadn't even seen the life that the protagonist should have.

However, he shared with Arisugawa a sentence he had just seen-

"In order to have peace for the soul, a man should do at least two things a day that he does not like."

"President Hoshino, after recruiting me into the club, he must have been comforting himself with this sentence, so much so that he took out the book and reviewed it a few more times."

"Really!"

Asuka Arisugawa is amused by Keisuke Ao's serious judgment, and then realizes that the book in Keisuke's hand turns out to belong to Fujiko Hoshino.

"This book?"

"Ah...... I borrowed it from the president. ”

In a way, you can't say that the Demon King is lying, right?

Although it may not be as simple as Keisuke Aoi said when she realized the truth, Asuka Arisugawa didn't continue to ask, and she also took out a thin little book from her bag.

The cover and content are all in English, and it seems to be a collection of poems by an unknown foreign author.

When the light and shadow reflected in the car window flowed, and when the light was dim, they stopped to read and occasionally chatted for a few sentences, Keisuke Aoi shared his feelings about reading, and Arisukawa picked out a few poems that felt good and read them to him.

"Summer poems?"

"Well, how does it feel?"

"I don't understand it, and I always feel that it is not as good as what I have seen with my own eyes."

Aokeisuke closed the book and looked out the window, where the tram had already left the city and was driving in the summer wilderness.

Today is a rare good weather, the sun is far from hot, and the sun shines on the body to make people feel warm and tired.

There are scattered villages and winding roads in the distance, and although you can't see the sea, you can feel a sense of anticipation.

He looked out the window, and the birds of Arisugawa were watching him, and another unspoken lyric poem in the poetry collection flashed in his heart.

"The morning sun of this day is about to set again,

Birds fly across the river bend in the sunset,

It's going to rain at night, and the rain will fall all over the lake.

You said you'd be back in the summer,

Is it tonight?"

She clasped the poetry book in her hand, looked out the window, and echoed in a slightly deliberate tone.

After what seemed like a long but short journey, the two finally got off at the town of Ojuku.

Onjuku Beach, which they came to today, is roughly the fifth most popular beach in Chiba Prefecture, and it is a great place for surfing and family-friendly sightseeing.

During the summer tourist season, there are quite a few tourists.

Keisuke Aoi didn't want to squeeze the free facilities on the beach, so he rented a room nearby.

"This ...... This is......! ”

Open a room?!

Asuka Arisugawa tightened the rope strap of his bag.

"What?"

Keisuke Aoi glanced back at her when he opened the door: "You go change your clothes first, I'll go buy a drink." ”

He handed the room card to Asukawa Arisukawa and threw his bag on the bed.

"No...... No, you don't. Yamato said with a red face.

Keisuke Aoi waved his hand, and he had already turned his head and walked towards the drink machine in the lobby downstairs.

While waiting on the first floor, Keisuke Aoi thought of a question that would never be understood by all his male compatriots - what is the difference between a swimsuit and underwear?

is obviously such a shy girl, but later she can calmly play on the beach in a swimsuit, or even play volleyball.

…… Incomprehensible.

After rejecting the accosting of four or five waves of tourists, he finally received the information that Arisugawa's costume change was completed, Aokeisuke took the drink and returned to the room, rang the doorbell, and there was a shy voice from Arisugawa on the other side of the door.

"Qing Gyu-kun?"

"Well, it's me."

Opening the door, Keisuke Aoi couldn't help but look at Asuka Arisugawa - the girl was not the dead water he thought she was, but a light white lady's swimsuit with lace like white lace on the edges, slightly conservative, but very cute.

The white and translucent shoulders, the round and full chest, the slender and soft waist, and the looming legs hidden under the silk scarf all make it impossible to take your eyes off.

Asuka Arisugawa's cheeks were flushed, and his hands were slightly covering his skin, unable to withstand Aokeisuke's naked gaze.

"Isn't that weird?"

"No, to be honest, it's too cute." Keisuke Aoi praised sincerely.

"That's ......"

Asuka Arisugawa smiled gently, his index finger hooking a strand of his hair, and suddenly he felt less shy.
