Chapter 164 School Trip (13)
November 5th, Thursday, the third day of the school trip.
In the early morning, it was quiet all around and Watanabe woke up.
Before he could open his eyes, his hand had already touched Kujo Miki's slippery and warm body.
Miki Kujo groaned in dissatisfaction, unconsciously pushed him away and turned her back.
Toru Watanabe moved closer and hugged her from behind.
This time, Miki Kujo did not escape. She adjusted her position in his arms and continued to sleep comfortably.
At this time, Toru Watanabe opened his eyes.
In the faint morning light shining through the curtains, Kujo Miki's skin looked so soft, even crystal clear.
As long as Toru Watanabe sucked lightly, it would leave a purple bruise - because it would not fade for a long time, after the first time, Kujo Miki would not allow him to do it again.
After a while, Kujo Miki slowly opened her eyes: "What time is it?"
"Half past five."
"Is it still raining?"
“I don’t know when it stopped.”
Miki Kujo closed her eyes again. There was still half an hour before she returned to Tokyo.
Just as she was about to sleep a little longer, she suddenly felt Watanabe Toru's hand moving around. Thinking he was not behaving himself again, she took his hand out of the quilt again.
"What are you doing?" She opened her eyes impatiently.
What caught her eye was Watanabe's slender left hand with distinct joints. His nails were neatly trimmed at her request.
"How about a practical comparison?" As he said this, Watanabe Toru was about to crawl into the quilt.
"You are sick!" Kujo Miki cursed, rolled up all the quilts and wrapped herself up, "If you want to compare, compare yourself!"
"No, this matter must be clarified!" Watanabe Toru said, standing up and pressing on Kujo Miki.
Wrapped in the quilt, Miki Kujo looked up at him with her beautiful eyes. She looked very cute and a little pitiful.
…
Miki Kujo was getting dressed beside the bed.
"Why don't you just stay and come back with me the day after tomorrow." Toru Watanabe was lying on the bed, playing with the hem of her long skirt in his hands.
Kujo Miki's face was still flushed, and she said in a charming voice, "To enjoy power and wealth, you have to pay a price. I am the only one left in this generation of the Kujo family. If I stay with you every day, some people will take advantage of it."
"It's too hard, do you need any help?" said Toru Watanabe.
"Okay, don't you want to be the Prime Minister? Once I win the seat of the second district councillor in Kanagawa Prefecture, I can give it to you later."
"No, I'm kidding, my dream is to retire at 25."
"Change your dream. Give me the socks."
Toru Watanabe found the socks and handed them to her.
While Kujo Miki was fixing her hair, Watanabe Toru got out of bed and started getting dressed, and ended up finishing faster than her.
Shizuru and the driver were already waiting at the door. Toru Watanabe hugged Miki Kujo reluctantly for a while before letting her get in the car.
Miki Kujo rested her hands on the central armrest and closed her eyes to rest.
As the car drove along the Tokaido, she said, "Let the people from Iwate Prefecture withdraw."
"Miss," Jingliu whispered, "A high school student has such skills. You have also seen the video of his shooting practice. And why did he happen to appear in Ochanomizu? I think it is prudent for you to let him stay with you..."
"No need." Kujo Miki, who still had her eyes closed, interrupted her.
Jingliu wanted to persuade her, but when he looked up, he suddenly noticed that the eldest lady, who never wore any jewelry, suddenly had a ring on her left hand.
Yesterday there was nothing there.
"Yes." She lowered her head again.
…
After watching the car disappear at the end of the street, Toru Watanabe did not turn back to the hotel, but ran along the deserted "Nenenzaka" in the early morning.
It was foggy, the shops were closed, there was still rain water on the bluestone road, and only two photographers with cameras were taking pictures.
Toru Watanabe ran through the empty streets.
I ran past "Nenenzaka", "Kiyomizu-zaka", the kimono rental shop, "Plum Blossom Hall", and all the way to "Kiyomizu-dera Temple";
This is just a warm-up. Turn right and you will see "Asahido", "Okamoto Textile Main Store", and "Saishian";
Finally, I ran towards "Nenenzaka".
The route forms a triangle, with a total length of 1,500 meters, and was run three laps.
…
Qingye Rin walked into the restaurant, chose breakfast, and sat down in an empty seat.
I took a sip of the steaming miso soup.
She always believed that it was a happy thing to have the stomach awakened by hot miso soup early in the morning.
While she was eating tuna topped with grated yam and nori flakes, Ikki Aoi and Tamamo Yomi came over and sat down next to her.
'Next to' actually means there is one person between them, so her personal space is much larger than that of ordinary people.
"The girls in our class had a pillow fight last night!" Ikki Aoi said excitedly, "More than a dozen people, more than 30 pillows, it was so intense! Xiaolin was directly knocked down! Hahahaha!"
"It sounds like fun!" Tamamo Haomi said enviously.
"Don't you have any activities in class one?"
"Tell ghost stories."
Ichimoku Aoi said with interest: "I like ghost stories the most, and I often play supernatural games at night!"
Tamamo Haomei trembled as if in fear: "I can't stand it."
After that, she asked Qingye Lin, who was concentrating on eating, "Does Qingye like ghost stories?"
"I haven't seen it." Qingye Rin felt like tuna and turned to eating grilled fish.
The grilled fish is not as delicious as yesterday's grilled shallot.
"By the way, does Kiyono-san have any plans for today?" Ikki Aoi asked carefully.
"I plan to take a walk alone and go to the Philosopher's Path." replied Qingye Rin.
"I'll go with you!"
"Thank you Tamamo-san, but no thanks."
"Why?"
"I like someone."
"Okay." Tamamo Haomi pursed her lips and stirred the miso soup without appetite.
Ikki Aoi originally wanted to invite Kiyono Rin to go together to find senior Mai, but when she saw Tamamo Yomi give up first, she immediately lost the courage to speak.
Yesterday was a group activity required by the school, but today we have free time and no reason to do it.
Aoi Ikki and Mimi Tamamo were talking about the supernatural story that happened last night when a man walked over.
"Good morning, Kiyono-san." The man sat down next to Kiyono Rin.
'Next to', really next to, but the bodies are still not touching.
Ikki Aoi looked at Kiyono Rin with disgust and said, "You stink of sweat. Please stay away from me, Watanabe-san."
"That's right!" Tamamo Haomei said exaggeratedly, pinching her nose.
Ikki Aoi sniffed secretly and found it had a little bit of the smell of sweat, but nothing strange. And when she thought that it was from the handsome Watanabe-kun, she didn't feel disgusted at all.
"Did Watanabe-kun go jogging?" she asked curiously.
"Well, I have the habit of jogging in the morning." Watanabe Toru answered while drinking miso soup.
"Do you also run in the morning during the school trip?"
"If I can stick to jogging in the morning during a school trip, then there is nothing I can't do - that's how I motivate myself."
"Is there anything you can't do? For example, take a shower after your morning run." Qingye Rin reminded in a cold voice.
"I was afraid that you would be out after taking a shower. Hmm? Why isn't this grilled fish as delicious as yesterday's?" Watanabe Toru ate all the grilled fish in two or three bites. "I'm going to Uji later to visit the Kitauji wind band. You come with me."
"No." Qingye Rin ate the fish cake in small bites.
"Why?"
"That's why I asked you. I want to go for a walk alone and visit Philosopher's Path."
"Don't go, come with me to Kitauji."
"Why?"
"Kumiko invited me to visit her school. It would be a bad influence for a boy like me to meet two girls, Kumiko and Reina. It's not okay to ask a boy to go to such a thing. You are the only girl who can go with me. Please, Doraemon."
The two of them were talking back and forth, leaving no room for Ikki Aoi and Tamamo Kasumi to interrupt.
This was the first time they had seen someone who dared to speak to Kiyono-san like this.
It’s clear that these two didn’t communicate much when they were in the wind band.
After drinking a cup of soup and putting the bowl down carefully, Kiyono Rin said to Watanabe Toru slowly, "I heard that Uji's matcha is the most authentic..."
"It's my treat!"
"fare……"
"Leave it to me!"
Qingye Rin nodded calmly: "Then I will pity you this time. Since you are a member of my club, I will reluctantly accompany you once."
"It's settled!" Watanabe Toru finished his meal and stood up with the plate in his hand. "Wait for me. I'm going to take a shower and change clothes."
After watching him leave, Tamamo Yomi looked at Kiyono Rin: "Kiyono-san, what about the path of philosophy?"
"Although matcha was introduced from China, there is a saying that 'the world's matcha is in the island countries, and the island countries' matcha is in Uji'. Compared with the philosophy of autumn, I want to try the most authentic matcha."
Ichimoku Aoi didn't react and asked, "You don't like someone..."
"Well, I like being alone, but I'm not averse to group actions."
Tamamo Yomi asked in confusion, "What happened to Autumn's philosophy?"
"I like cherry blossoms." Qingye Rin decided not to eat the disgusting grilled fish and save room for matcha.
I heard that there are two most famous matcha - "Nakamura Tokichi" and "Ito Kyuemon". Which one should I go to?
After taking a shower, Toru Watanabe did not put on his casual clothes, but changed into the Kamikawa High School uniform - a white shirt, a black suit jacket, no tie, and no buttons on the suit.
"Let's go."
"Um."
On the way to the bus, Toru Watanabe noticed that Kiyono Rin was staring at her phone, which she never had this habit before.
"What are you looking at?"
"It's an app that Tamamo recommended to me yesterday. It allows you to search for delicious food, see restaurant rankings, and diners' reviews. You can also make reservations for dining."
I don’t know if Watanabe Toru heard it wrong, but he felt that Kiyono Rin seemed to be showing off when she said this.
"You don't think I don't know this software?" he asked cautiously.
Qingye Lin's face turned cold: "You know?"
"I don't know, dear Kiyono-san, please tell me where to download it." Toru Watanabe took out his mobile phone.
Unfortunately, Qingye Rin never paid attention to what others said, and the coldness in her body became even stronger.
The two first took the "Tozai Line" and then transferred to the "Nara Line". It took two hours and they shook all the way to Uji City.
Compared to Kyoto, there are obviously fewer tourists coming to Uji.
This quaint little town, where you can see mountains from everywhere, seems particularly peaceful.
"There are so few people." Toru Watanabe looked around.
"Compared to the busy scenic spots, I prefer this place." Qingye Rin's tone was full of appreciation.
In the azure blue sky, white clouds are also walking slowly.
Under the sunshine that was so bright that it made people want to sleep, the two walked on the lush, clean and quiet streets.
"How about we go have some matcha first? Kumiko and I have an appointment to go to their school at noon."
"Okay." Qing Ye Lin said, "The main store of "Nakamura Tokichi" is nearby, let's go there."
"Lead the way." Watanabe Toru waved his hand heroically.
The two walked across a zebra crossing without traffic lights, entered a quaint alley, and entered a traditional Japanese courtyard.
This garden is the main store of "Nakamura Tokichi".
Lift the linen door curtain with the store name printed on it, walk through a short lobby passage paved with dark brown wooden boards, and you can see a small and exquisite open-air Japanese courtyard.
Walking along the stone path, you will reach the dining area of the store, with several .
Thanks to Miss Qingye who finally knew about the food APP, the two of them made an appointment early and didn't have to queue up to get a number.
I ordered matcha ice cream, matcha cake, matcha smoothie, matcha soba, matcha parfait...all matcha.
Matcha ice cream, placed in a thick bamboo tube, with white rice balls and red bean paste, has distinct layers and rich taste;
Matcha Cake, with matcha and chocolate flavors, served with sweet cream and ice cream;
Matcha shaved ice, snow-white and fluffy shaved ice topped with matcha sauce and topped with...
"Okay, okay." Watanabe Toru interrupted Qing Ye Lin's popular science, "I am not interested in matcha, and I don't pursue knowledge in this area."
"It's hard to believe that there are people who hate matcha." Saying in surprise, Kiyono Rin put the spoon full of smoothie into her little mouth.
"If you put it that way, most boys are no longer human."
Qingye Rin ignored him, finished her bite, and handed him the rest of the smoothie.
"Thank you, I don't want to eat it," said Toru Watanabe.
"Do you think I can eat so much by myself?"
"What about you?"
"I can't order?"
"……sure."
"You should at least be of some use. Don't think that just being handsome is enough. If you don't work hard, even if you are like Watanabe, you will be eliminated by society sooner or later." said Kiyono Rin.
"It's just a cup of matcha, is that a big deal?"
"Haven't you read Tagore? 'God's great authority lies in the gentle breeze, not in the violent storm.' Success or failure depends on the details. Mr. Watanabe, you can't just read a book. If you don't think and summarize, it's useless to read more books..."
"Eat, eat, eat, I eat."
Toru Watanabe picked up his spoon, scooped a big mouthful of smoothie and put it into his mouth. The bitter-sweet and cool taste spread in his mouth.
Qingye Rin nodded with satisfaction, took a new spoon and started eating the matcha cake.
"Is it delicious?" she asked.
"It's a bit bitter." Watanabe Toru took another sip, "But when I think about this, it's what Seino-san ate before, maybe there's still some..."
"Shut up." Qing Ye Lin said with a straight face, "Eat yours."
She used a new spoon and only took one bite, so there was no way there was anything of hers on it.
This guy just likes to talk nonsense all day long.
After eating the matcha snacks, at the suggestion of Kiyono Rin, Watanabe Toru bought matcha flavored raw chocolate, matcha cake and matcha candy as a gift for Kumiko.
There was still some time before noon, so the two decided to walk to Kitauji.
After turning left and right for about twenty minutes, I finally saw my destination.
"No wonder I have such a fondness for Kitauji!"
"Is it because of Kousaka-san's breasts?" Kiyono Rin panted and said contemptuously.
"Am I such a superficial person? Then the reason why I went to Shenchuan was all because of your legs? Take a good look at where we are now."
Qingye Rin lowered his head.
At their feet was a long slope - steeper than the one in front of Kamikawa High School, and Kitauji High School was located halfway up the slope.
"I finally figured out why most Kitauji girls' legs are thicker than Kamikawa girls'!"
"Like the Saiyans, they live on a planet with gravity 10 times higher than Earth's. Even if their physiques are the same, they will be stronger than Earthlings."
"It's a pity that a Frieza clan like me has a second-stage transformation that is enough to make them despair. It's just that in order to save energy, I usually use the form of an ordinary earthling..."
Kiyono Rin could no longer hear Watanabe Toru's nonsense.
She shouldn't have come to Kitauji just for matcha - this was the only thought in her mind after she was too tired to think.
