"Let's go to the parking lot and I'll take you back to the hotel." Yushan Heren said.
"No, no need. I live in Minami-Karuizawa." The man shook his head. He didn't want to experience Yuyama Kazuto's driving skills again.
Although the hotel he was staying in was two or three kilometers away from his current location, he didn't want to get in Yushan Heren's car again, whether he took a taxi or walked back.
Chapter 2020: Midnight Snack Before Leaving
"Are these all for me?"
Looking at the jam and some cosmetics that Yushan Heren brought out, the foreign man couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Well, let's take it as a return gift for tonight's dinner." Yushan Heren responded.
To be honest, when he arrived at the restaurant, he knew that this dinner would not be cheap, but he did not expect it to be so expensive.
It would have been fine if Yushan Heren had paid the bill himself, but in the end it was the foreign man who paid the bill, which made Yushan Heren feel a little guilty.
It just so happened that I had prepared some souvenirs to take back to Tokyo in the car, and when Yushan and others bought them, they had reserved some space, so it would be okay to give one to the foreign man.
"Then I'll accept it without mercy."
The things given by Yushan Heren are quite practical.
Moreover, after today, he and the other party can be considered friends, so the foreign man did not feel any psychological pressure to accept this gift.
"By the way, please leave your address. I will mail the photos to you after I process them."
Just as he was about to say goodbye, the foreign man suddenly remembered that he seemed to have not left the contact address of Yushan Kazuto and Tsuchimami.
Kazuto Hayama thought about it and gave the address of Shinmachi Apartment.
He had also seen the previous photos, and they were indeed very well taken. He also wanted to see what the finished product would look like after it was produced.
On the side, Tsuchima Mai blinked slightly and asked, "How long will it take?"
She couldn't wait to see the finished photos, especially the scene where Yushan Kazuto put the grass ring on her.
Until now, that simple, casually woven grass ring is still on Domama's hand, making her reluctant to take it off.
"I'll do it as soon as possible."
Hearing the question about Tujian's burial, the foreign man was startled and immediately spoke.
He hasn't done photo processing work for more than three years, and he doesn't know how long it will take to get back up to speed.
And now, his round-the-world tour is still going on, and he can only take time out of his journey to complete this task.
Hearing this, Tsuchima couldn't help but blink. She knew that such an answer usually meant that it would take a long time.
However, Tsuchima Mai still nodded. It doesn't matter if it takes a little longer. As long as the finished product is good enough, she doesn't mind waiting a little longer.
After a brief farewell, the foreign man left the parking lot. He planned to walk back to his hotel and take in the night view of Karuizawa.
Yushan, Ren and Tsuchima got in the car and prepared to return to Hoshinoya.
"Scumbag senior, why did you scare others when you were driving before?"
When they were riding in the car before, Doma Mai had sensed that Yuyama Kazuto was deliberately pretending to be a novice who liked fast driving.
In fact, Yushanhe drove very steadily and controlled the route very well. He did not accelerate or brake frequently as before.
"Well... just tease him." Yushan Heren blinked and said.
"This scumbag senior has such a bad taste!" said Tsuchima, pursing her lips.
Yushan Kazuto shrugged. From Tsuchimiya's perspective, it was indeed the case.
Yushan Kazuto couldn't tell her that he deliberately scared the foreign man in order to make him feel the preciousness of life.
What's more, Yushan Kazuto was not sure whether his judgment was correct. If it was not correct, it would be a bit laughable.
"It's almost seven o'clock now. Can we still order food after we go back?"
"You still want to have a midnight snack?" Yushan Heren couldn't help but blink.
"You're talking about Sagiri, Yume-chan!" said Doma Mei, puffing out her cheeks.
"Sagiri..." Yushan Kazuto blinked, "Do you think Sagiri is a fool and can't order food by herself?"
Tsuchiya couldn't help but blink. She really hadn't thought about this.
Long before they decided to go to Minamikaruizawa for dinner, Kazuto Yuyama had already sent a message to Sagiri Izumi, asking her to order her own food and also order a cat meal for Xiaoxue.
"Wait, scumbag senior, you just said that the hotel has midnight snacks?"
With a turn of her eyes, Tsuchiya suddenly spoke.
"That's right." Yushan Heren blinked and said.
/
"Why didn't that scumbag senior tell Yumi-chan before!" Yumi Doma couldn't help but puff out her cheeks. She was going to leave Hoshinoya Karuizawa tomorrow, and she just found out that there would be a midnight snack after dinner.
In fact, it’s not that Yushan Kazuto deliberately didn’t say it, but the midnight snack provided by Hoshinoya was nothing special, just ordinary fried noodles or something like that.
For midnight snacks like this, Yushan Heren would rather go to some snack stalls to taste them rather than sit in the room and wait for the female general to bring them.
However, seeing that Doma Yui looked angry, Yushan Kazuto had no choice but to say, "Then let's try it tonight."
……
After returning to the hotel, they rested for a while. It was not until nine o'clock in the evening that Yushan and Ren picked up the ordering tablet and ordered some midnight snacks.
There are not many varieties, the prices are not cheap, and the calories are amazing.
If it wasn't what Doma Mai wanted to eat, Hayama Kazuto would definitely not have ordered it.
"There's not even any skewers." Looking at the dishes on the ordering tablet, even Doma Mai was a little dissatisfied.
"After all, Hoshinoya Karuizawa was built a long time ago, so some facilities are indeed a little lacking." Yushan Kazuto blinked.
Eyes, Tao.
After ordering a few random portions, Domama returned the tablet to Hayama Kazuto.
"If it's HOSHINOYA Fuji, you can even enjoy grilling skewers on the balcony." Hayama Kazuto said with a smile.
Hoshinoya Fuji is a hotel with relatively many guests staying in Hayama. He has been there twice, and each time he stayed for more than half a month.
One of the special features there is that you can enjoy BBQ directly on the balcony.
In fact, it is not impossible to have a BBQ in the courtyard of HOSHINOYA Karuizawa, but the hotel does not have the corresponding facilities, unless you borrow a set of BBQ equipment like you borrowed the astronomical telescope before.
Walking into the living room, Hayama Kazuto handed the ordering tablet to Izumi Sagiri.
Sagiri Izumi was also quite interested in the midnight snacks at Hoshinoya. After all, she had never tasted any midnight snacks when she came here before.
He ordered a few things at random and handed them back to Yushan Kazuto.
After checking the price statistics, he found that it was already more than 10,000 yen, which made Yushan Kazuto blink slightly.
If we go to an izakaya, this 10,000 yen is enough to feed three people as long as they don't drink.
However, thinking that he would be leaving tomorrow, Yushan Heren didn't care about it anymore.
No matter how expensive it is, it's just a midnight snack for tonight. Moreover, considering the consumption level of Hoshinoya, the price is not too outrageous.
Chapter 2021 Grass Ring Fingers
Looking at the palm-sized lobsters in the fried noodles in front of him, Yushan Heren finally understood why this midnight snack was so expensive. It was because the ingredients were too good.
On the coffee table, there were midnight snacks ordered by several people.
There aren’t many varieties, only about seven or eight in total, but the portions are quite filling.
The dish presentation is also very exquisite. Under the light of the living room, it looks shiny and very tempting.
Yushan and the other two sat around the coffee table. They just looked at the food for a few seconds and then started to eat with relish.
After the midnight snack, all three of them felt very satisfied.
In terms of taste, this midnight snack is not necessarily more delicious than the meals served in the restaurant at other times.
However, the refreshing feeling of replenishing calories late at night makes people unable to stop.
Izumi Sagiri was still rational and knew that she couldn't eat too much. She tasted a little and when she felt her stomach was a little bloated, she stopped eating.
Tujianmai is different. She is like a goldfish that never knows how to be full. Her mouth is always full.
By the time she realized she couldn't eat any more, Domama was so bloated that she could hardly stand up.
"Are you okay?" Looking at Tsuchima Mai, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but blink slightly and said.
"No, it's okay." Tsuchima said with some difficulty.
Yushan Kazuto blinked his eyes lightly. You know, last time, Doma Mai ate so much that her stomach was bloated and she felt uncomfortable for the whole day.
But this time, Tujian's situation was slightly better.
Last time she felt she couldn't eat anymore but she continued eating. This time at least she didn't force herself to swallow it.
"Sagiri, please help Komari go to the hot spring. I think she can't go into the bathroom by herself in this condition." Yushan Kazuto said.
"Who, who said that?" Domama Mai was immediately dissatisfied and forced herself to stand up by the coffee table.
But after she stood up and took only two steps, Domama had to hold on to the table beside her. She was so full that she could not walk any further.
Although Izumi Sagiri ate a little too much, she still had no problem moving freely.
Looking at Doma Madoka's expression, Izumi Sagiri could only nod and walked to Doma Madoka's side: "Sister Madoka, let me help you to the bathroom."
Looking at Izumi Sagiri, Tsuchima Mai couldn't help but blink, but finally nodded.
She also knew that without someone's help, it might take her more than ten minutes to walk from the living room to the bathroom, and she couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't fall.
If she fell now, Domama felt that she might not be able to stand up tonight.
There is no other choice: either lie on the ground for a night or lie in the hospital for a night.
With the support of Izumi Sagiri, Tsuchima Mai suddenly felt a lot more at ease.
Although Izumi Sagiri is not very strong, it is no problem for her to provide support to Doma Mai.
After sending Tsuchima Umi into the bathroom, Izumi Sagiri prepared to leave.
But Doma Mai turned around and glanced at Izumi Sagiri: "Sagiri, it's getting late, how about we take a bath together?"
The time for supper was still quite late. It was already past ten o'clock. If the three of them took a bath one after another, they might not be able to go to bed until after twelve o'clock. And now, Doma Mai was already feeling a little sleepy.
Izumi Sagiri couldn't help but blink. She didn't expect that Doma Mai would take the initiative to invite her to take a bath together.
She instinctively wanted to refuse. After all, since she was six years old, she had never taken a bath with her mother, let alone others.
However, after looking at Mai Doma, Izumi Sagiri felt that it would be difficult for her to refuse Mai Doma's kindness.
After thinking for a while, Izumi Sagiri still responded in a low voice: "I, I'll go get the clothes."
……
Sitting in the hot spring pool, Doma Mai and Izumi Sagiri were both a little nervous. To be honest, this was the first time for both of them to take a hot spring bath together.
On Kazuto Hayama's birthday before, Sagiri Izumi always took a bath in a small hot spring pool alone. Unexpectedly, after coming to Karuizawa, she actually took a bath with Yui Doma.
Doma Mai was also a little nervous. To be honest, the previous invitation was made on impulse.
Eating too much midnight snack increased the blood supply to the gastrointestinal tract and insufficient blood supply to the brain, which is why he said that.
Now that she thinks about it carefully, Tsuchima Mai feels a little embarrassed. Looking at Izumi Sagiri standing beside her, her cheeks can't help but turn red.
Fortunately, the hot spring pool was big enough so the two of them didn't need to have any physical contact, otherwise the awkward feeling would have been even greater.
The two of them sat in silence for more than ten minutes, and finally Izumi Sagiri broke the atmosphere: "Mai-sister, what is this thing?"
Looking at the grass ring in Izumi Sagiri's hand, Doma Mai couldn't help but blink slightly. Didn't she put it on the shelf?
"This, this is a grass wreath I picked up when I went out today. I made it into a wreath." Tujianmai said angrily, "I thought it was pretty, so I kept it."
Izumi Sagiri nodded and gestured a little. Her fingers were too small to wear the grass ring unless she wore it on her thumb.
"I was wondering where it went before. Where did you see it, Sagiri?" Doma Mai asked angrily.
"It's on the ground over there." Izumi Sagiri pointed to the ground.
Tsuchiya couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, as long as she didn't take it directly from the shelf.
