I teach kendo in Tokyo

Looking at Mikako who was on the roof, Haruyu muttered in an unbearable tone: "Why are you going on the roof?"

As if to answer Haruyu's words, Mikako went up to the roof and shouted to the people below: "The wind on the roof is so comfortable!"

Qingliu: "I see, idiot He Yan doesn't need a reason to like heights..."

This sentence made Kazuma, who was about to go up and feel how comfortable the wind on the roof was, give up the idea of ​​showing off his unique skills.

At this time, the female general had already reacted. She turned around and said to Kazuma with an expression of admiration: "It turns out that what was said in the newspaper is true. Kiryu-sensei is really a master of ninjutsu!"

Kazuma corrected him with a serious face: "This is parkour, an extreme sport from France."

"France?" Ms. Umashima was even more surprised, "It's amazing. As expected of a student from Tokyo University, the things he plays are so trendy!"

"I am from Tokyo University, and she is from the English Department of Sophia University."

"Are you going to Wisdom University? Isn't that a future diplomat? Is that why you want to learn the latest foreign things? Si Kuniichi." Ms. Ubashima showed Kazuma what "ideological enlightenment" means. Make up for it.

Qingliu said angrily: "You are overthinking, she is just a simple idiot. Although she can climb very fast, there is only one thing she can do: Climb fast."

Kazuma: "I'm faster than her."

"Yes, I understand." Qingliu said perfunctorily.

At this time, Oiwakawa Houyi urged: "The sun is so bright, it's better to go inside first. I'm almost melting."

Ms. Umashima: "Please come this way. There is central air conditioning in the hotel."

Only then did Kazuma realize that he had only been off the bus for a short time and was already sweating a lot.

It's just that the mountains are indeed cooler than Tokyo, so Kazuma, who is used to Tokyo's scorching heat, doesn't even feel hot for a while.

Everyone walked towards the hotel under the leadership of Ms. Umashima.

At this time, Mikako jumped from the roof to the tree in front of the hotel, slid down the tree trunk, jumped back, and walked to the hotel with everyone: "It feels so cool in the mountains, why is Tokyo so hot?"

"Because it's Tokyo." Kazuma replied without thinking, but no one in this era could pick up on this joke.

Honami: "Urban heat island effect. Recently, the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly has a proposal to increase green vegetation in Tokyo and curb the heat island effect."

"It's rare for a young lady to actually care about the resolutions of the Metropolitan Council." Ms. Ubashima, who was leading the way, said back as she walked.

"After all, my goal is to become a female prime minister. The first step is to win a seat in the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly. I don't know if it's okay." Honami said with a smile.

Ms. Umashima opened her mouth in an O shape: "Miss, do you want to become a politician? This is not possible in Japan. The United Kingdom has a female prime minister."

"Just because it has never happened before, it is worthwhile to work hard, right?" Honami asked with a smile.

"That's it...but to become a politician or something, the academic requirements are very high. I remember that in general political science departments in universities, you can only be civil servants..."

"My name is Keio University, Faculty of Political Science."

Ms. Umashima looked at Honami, then at Kazuma and the others, and asked: "Let me ask a question, Mr. Kiryu...have any of you gone to college?"

Qingliu raised her hand: "I am in the third grade of junior high school."

"Eh?" Ms. Umashima glanced at Haru, then turned to senior Miu Amanaka.

Before she could speak, Sister Gan took out her student ID card skillfully and said, "I am a third-year student at the Faculty of Law at Dongda University, and I am the senior sister of all of them."

Ms. Umashima laughed awkwardly: "This... Oh, I'm really sorry. I thought you were a primary school student... I treat you to ice cream, can you forgive me?"

"Why do you still offer compensation according to the standards of a primary school student even though you know you made a mistake?" Middle school sister Gan pouted.

Qingliu: "So you don't want ice cream, right?"

"Yes." Miu Amanaka said firmly, "Give me the strawberry flavor."

"Okay, do the others want ice cream too? Our store hired a new ice cream maker. Last year, the ice cream we sold was the same as the convenience stores on the hot spring street. This year, it has completely evolved!"

Kazuma raised his hand: "I want chocolate flavor."

Mikako: "Then I want chocolate too... Hey, wait, I should want something with a different flavor than Kazuma, so I can swap it with Kazuma!"

Ms. Umashima: "Two chocolates, remember."

"Wait a moment!"

Mikako was about to change when Honami's voice overcame her: "I'll just have the matcha flavor. Can I make it the matcha flavor?"

"Of course. This is the latest popular flavor in Tokyo, right? Our store keeps up with the trend." Ms. Umashima said very proudly.

Tamamo: "Does it smell like a snow girl?"

Kazuma was shocked: What the hell? Catch a snow girl, grind it up and sprinkle it on it?

"Eh?" Ms. Umashima was stunned, "What does it smell like?"

"Blueberry flavor." Tamamo changed the taste silently.

Mikako: "Is it my imagination lately? Dandanzi pretends to be stupid more often."

Tamamo: "It's your illusion."

Kazuma originally wanted to agree with Mikako, but after looking at Tamamo's smiling face, he decided not to speak.

**

In this way, Kiryu and his party divided the house after eating ice cream and settled down.

Kazuma lived in a large single room that was said to be Akutagawa Ryunosuke's favorite when he came here.

The store owner also named this room "Dragon Room" in a serious way, and a huge ukiyo-e with dragon themes was painted on the wall.

Kazuma always felt that the name "Dragon Room" sounded like the room where the BOSS was, and there happened to be such an exaggerated ukiyo-e in the room. In a game like Yakuza, this would be at least the second boss.

The view from this room was really nice, though.

The room is located on the third floor of the hotel. From the window, you can clearly see the entire hot spring street and the mountain with the shrine opposite.

Sitting in front of such a window really makes you want to write something.

Kazuma was admiring the scenery outside the window when Mikako opened the door: "Kazuma! Let's go up the mountain to find a hot spring and soak in it!"

"You, can you calm down for a while? It's such a hot day."

"Kazuma, don't you want to climb the mountain? The mountain is right there!"

Mikako actually used the lines of a certain mountaineer.

Kazuma: "If the hotel didn't have air conditioning, I might still go climbing. Now I just want to spread out gracefully in the air-conditioned room, like a ball of mud."

"Hahahaha, if mud is a good metaphor, I will come too."

After saying that, she lay down in the middle of Longjian's main room and made a big font.

Kazuma: "Go back to your own room and spread your legs!"

"Why, I can spread it out here so that Kazuma can look good to you."

"I haven't reduced myself to the point of using monkeys to entertain my eyes."

After saying that, Kazuma planned to ignore Mikako and continue to look at the scenery.

But Mikako persisted and spoke: "Na na! Let's go hiking, na! na!"

Kazuma sighed: "Okay, as long as you stop nagging, I will accompany you to climb the mountain."

Mikako jumped up and said, "Okay!"

Kazuma sighed and glanced out the window. Although his room didn't get any sunlight now, judging from the brightness of the sunlight shining on the hot spring street, the sun outside was very hot right now.

Forget it, just take a sauna in advance.

Kazuma stood up and made a "let's go" gesture to Mikako, who had the word "can't wait" written on her face.

**

When they were approaching the top of the mountain, Mikako, who was walking in front, shouted: "Kazuma! Come and see, there is a hot spring pool here! There is also a sign that says Dragon Pool!"

Kazuma quickened his pace to catch up with Mikako, and sure enough he saw a fork in the road leading to the top of the mountain. At the end of the fork was a stone monument of "Dragon Pond", and he could vaguely see the heat rising behind the fence behind the stone monument.

Mikako took Kazuma's hand and ran forward. As she ran, she said, "The first pool I found is the pool that Akutagawa-san likes! You must take a dip if you are so destined!"

Kazuma couldn't help but remind her: "Don't take off your clothes suddenly, there are boys here."

As soon as he finished speaking, the hot spring pool behind the fence came into Kazuma's sight. Mikako dropped Kazuma's hand and took off her shirt with a brush.

Kazuma was caught off guard, and just as he was about to turn away, he noticed that Mikako was wearing a swimsuit underneath.

"I knew it!"

Kazuma muttered through gritted teeth.

Mikako threw her clothes and pants on the big stone next to the hot spring, threw off her shoes, and rushed into the hot spring.

Then she rushed out howling: "It's so hot, so hot!"

"I've been warned before that the hot springs on the mountain are relatively hot." Kazuma sighed.

He came to the hot spring and took off his shoes, pulled up the legs of his Hawaiian shorts, and tested them with his toes.

It feels okay.

When I was in college, a northern classmate who slept with horses liked to soak his feet, and he dragged him to soak with the horses. At that time, the water the classmate used was about the same temperature.

Kazuma adjusted for a while, then sat down by the hot spring and soaked only his feet in the pool.

Mikako pressed his shoulders with both hands, pressed up against him from behind and asked, "Isn't it hot?"

"It's okay. It'll be just fine once you get used to it."

"Then I'll give it a try." Mikako sat next to Kazuma and put her feet into the pool.

When she entered the pool, she gasped—no, it must have been the heat.

But she didn't pull the foot out.

For the next minute, Kazuma and Mikako soaked their feet in silence.

There are unknown birds singing around.

Mikako suddenly laughed: "I'm sitting like this in my swimsuit, just like those landlubbers in high school swimming class."

Kazuma glanced at her and said with a smile: "You dared to wear such a bold swimsuit to swimming class in high school. Aren't you afraid that Teacher Daimon would knock you up into the sky and become a star?"

"You're flying while shouting, 'I'll come back,' right?" Mikako took over the conversation smoothly.

"almost."

Mikako chuckled.

After laughing, the two of them sat here quietly and soaked their feet for a while.

Then Mikako stood up without warning: "Sergeant Mikako can't stand the heat anymore. He needs to go back to the hotel to turn on the air conditioner! Please give the order to retreat!"

Kazuma also stood up: "Okay, retreat!"

Mikako saluted gracefully, then picked up her clothes and quickly put them on, turned to Kazuma and smiled, suddenly wanting to push Kazuma into the hot spring pool.

Kazuma dodged gracefully, and Mikako jumped directly into the hot spring pool.

The water splashed in an instant, as if the spring of a hot spring suddenly turned into a geyser.

"Do you think this can make me careless? Don't underestimate the man who comes back from the gate of hell again and again!" Kazuma squatted by the pool, smiling at Mikako who got up from the water and was all wet, "Oh, kill. If you must die, you must die.”

Mikako's face was full of grievance: "If you don't come down and get wet together, I won't be happy."

Kazuma stared at her.

She also pouted and stared at Kazuma, showing an awkward expression.

Kazuma sighed: "You give way."

Mikako smiled and hid at the edge of the pool.

Kazuma said "Hey", jumped up, and fell into the pond with a splash.

The splash of water was bigger than when Mikako fell into the water just now.

Mikako's face was covered with water, but she still smiled very happily.

While laughing, she picked up spring water with her hands and poured it on Kazuma's face.

Kazuma: "Don't be like this, the speed we are moving water out has exceeded the speed of the hot spring water coming in! This pool is about to bottom out!"

The spring of the hot spring is not actually in the pool. It is on the side and flows continuously into the pool along a bamboo sink.

The water in the pool was almost full just now, and a person could soak in it. Now, Kazuma and the others made the pool deep just above the knee joint.

Mikako kept laughing, and now she was out of breath. She stopped splashing water, took a few deep breaths, and then said: "Okay, let's stop making trouble. I'm tired from laughing, and the muscles on my face are numb. Let's go back. …”

As she spoke she climbed out of the pool and shook the water from her hair like a cat.

"Hey!" Kazuma, who had his face wet again, protested.

Mikako looked back at Kazuma: "This is the final attack!"

Kazuma was about to fight back with water in the pond, and Mikako was about to run, but her foot slipped.

She subconsciously reached out and grabbed the fence by the pool, but it only caused her body to flip over in the air and did not prevent her from falling.

She just fell face down into the pool.

Back towards Kazuma.

The thought in Kazuma's mind at this moment was: Are you here? It's a scheduled episode of a romantic comedy, and the two of them kissed together because of wrestling!

A second later, Kazuma discovered that the comics were all lies.

Mikako's forehead hit Kazuma's front teeth hard.

The first and second hardest parts of the human body are head-on.

Also, with such a height difference between men and women, how could it be possible for their mouths to be exactly opposite each other, unless they were deliberately aimed at each other.

Although Kazuma took a step back, he finally caught Mikako steadily and neither of them fell together.

But he suspected his front teeth were doomed.

Mikako was fine. She rubbed her forehead and complained: "That's not right. Shouldn't we just kiss each other as soon as possible?"

"Sorry, I didn't aim well." Kazuma teased, and there was no hint of apology in his tone.

Mikako looked at Kazuma and suddenly smiled: "How do you feel?"

Kazuma: "It's okay."

"What about eggs?"

"You're fatter."

"Why do you have to use this word! It means plump, do you understand plump!"

Kazuma picked up Mikako and walked to the edge of the pool, being careful not to slip. He didn't put her down until she reached the hiking trail.

"Are you still going to the top of the mountain?"

Mikako crossed her arms and seemed to suddenly become shy at this moment: "I won't go. It would be too embarrassing if I meet a mountain climber."

"Are monkeys embarrassed too?"

"Yes! You will blush when you should blush."

As if echoing Mikako's words, her ears turned red visibly.

She turned around to start going down the mountain, but stumbled as she took one step forward.

Kazuma hurriedly supported her: "What's wrong?"

"I... seem to have a sprain in my foot. No, it's just a sprain in my foot. It hurts."

Kazuma sighed: "You are too heavy. Even I can't carry you down the mountain. In this way, you can stand firm on your own first."

Mikako stood firm on the small bush on the side of the road and looked at Kazuma.

Kazuma came to her and squatted on one knee: "Come on, come up."

"Okay!" Mikako replied happily, climbed onto Kazuma's back, and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Kazuma stood up with a loud shout and carried Mikako on his back to the hotel halfway up the mountain.

Mikako whispered in his ear: "Kazuma pinches my thigh, so lustful."

"If you keep doing this I will let you go and drag you behind me like a cloak."

"Stop talking, stop talking! Don't let go!"

Mikako was quiet for about two minutes after that.

Then she whispered in Kazuma's ear: "Slippery~"

From time to time in Japanese, overlapping words with no specific meaning are used to express some meanings. For example, "slippery" sounds like "ziliu ziliu". Another example is "smirk" spoken in Japanese as "niania".

Now Kazuma listens to the "ZiLiuZiLiu" in his ears, and his face is filled with "Niania".

When they were about to get off to the hotel, Kazuma asked Mikako: "Did you learn how to flirt from a master in college?"

"What are you talking about? Beautiful girls naturally understand these things. You may have forgotten that I am also a beautiful girl." When she said this, Mikako tightened her hands.

Kazuma: "Hey! I can't breathe!"

"Ah, sorry. But why do you speak English!"

"Expressing respect to the English Department of Sophia University?" Kazuma said. In fact, the memory of the previous life suddenly came into effect.

It has been more than a year since I traveled back in time, but the things in my previous life are still vivid in my mind as if they happened yesterday, which seems a bit strange. If there were senior time travellers, Kazuma really wanted to ask them if they would be like this.

It's a pity that there is no great emperor in this world who loves to keep diaries.

Kazuma carried Mikako on his back and passed under the torii gate at the entrance to the hiking trail, and then saw Tamamo standing on the public terrace on the second floor of the hotel, looking at them.

Honami was sitting on the chair next to her, drinking afternoon tea.

This hotel is obviously decorated in a Japanese style, but the terrace is very Western-style.

Tamamo's voice floated from afar: "I convinced the female general that the hot spring bathhouse in the hotel will open one hour early today. You can take a bath now. You two can go in directly. I will ask the hotel to prepare clothes."

It is also an unwritten "rule" to change into hotel clothes during your stay in this kind of hot spring hotel.

Mikako whispered from behind Kazuma: "Kazuma, Danzi said so! Let's go take a mixed bath!"

"I reject."

"Eh?"

"If I enter the mixed bath, not only will you come, but Honami will probably come too. If another man enters the mixed bath, wouldn't it be an advantage for him?"

"Hehe, Kazuma cares about this."

"Of course." Kazuma raised his head and shouted to Tamamo, "I know! I'm going to the men's bath! By the way, Mikako has a sprained foot and needs to be taken care of."

Tamamo nodded: "I understand, then I'll go to the women's bath to wash with her and take care of her."

Mikako waved to the second floor: "Please, Dandanzi!"

Tamamo nodded, then turned and disappeared onto the terrace.

Honami stood up, came to the edge of the terrace and pressed the handrail and asked: "How is it on the mountain?"

"Ryunosuke-san has a good idea when choosing hot springs." Kazuma responded.

"That's right." Honami nodded.

Kazuma warned: "If you want to go swimming, remember to wear a swimsuit!"

"I know! I will do it even if you don't tell me."

Kazuma smiled. There was really no need to remind Honami of this. She felt more and more like Tamamo now, so stable.

Watching Honami return to the chair on the terrace and sit down, Kazuma also looked away and carried Mikako into the main entrance of the hotel.

"Oops, sprained ankle?" The female general happened to be busy behind the counter in the hotel lobby. When she saw this scene, she immediately came out from behind the counter carrying a medical kit. "Every year, we have customers here who sprain their feet. Now all the waiters in our hotel have sprained their feet." He is an expert in treating sprained feet. Come, let me take a look."

Kazuma put Mikako on the chair in the lobby.

Ms. Umashima could tell at a glance which foot was in trouble, so she took off her shoes and looked carefully.

After a while.

"Well, it's a small problem. The tendon is not injured at all, it's just pulled. As expected of a ninjutsu practitioner. I probably won't feel the pain the day after tomorrow." Ms. Umashima said as she sprayed Mikako's feet with bruises. After spraying, I applied two large pieces of plaster of some unknown kind.

"This is a plaster from the shrine on the other side of the hot spring street. It's very effective."

Kazuma frowned: "Isn't that shrine a fake created by the tourism bureau for tourism?"

"No, that's a shrine dedicated to the local patron saint. It's hundreds of years old. The Tourism Bureau only renovated it after approval from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology."

Just at this time, Tamamo came downstairs and entered the lobby with the medical kit and a change of clothes. When she heard this, she showed a thoughtful expression.

Kazuma looked at her.

Since it has a history of hundreds of years, there is no reason why the Jinguji family, who are familiar with sacrifices and tribute matters, should not know about this shrine.

For a moment, silence fell in the lobby.

Outside the hotel door, the sun was shining brightly and the cicadas were chirping.
