It's raining.

The usual clear sky was finally replaced by gray colors.

Hui raised his head.

The pattering raindrops fell on the closed window panes continuously.

The faint traces of rainwater sliding down were quickly washed away again, and the curtains were shaking slightly.

Although it was still raining heavily, the sun did not know when it came down.

There are small gaps in the clouds, from which thin rays of light are revealed, forming light golden bands of light on the ground, flowing out dense and long streets among the densely packed buildings that fill the field of vision.

It seems that because of yesterday's massage, this sleep was surprisingly sound.

Seeing the time of "8:07" on the alarm clock, Megumi sat up from the bed and opened her mouth like a kitten, yawned, and then stretched greatly.

On the side, Shi Yusang was lying on her side, breathing quietly, sleeping quite peacefully.Her expression seemed to be smiling, this peaceful sleeping look was completely different from her usual unrevealed look.

On the other side of her, Ying Lili was lying flat on the slightly messy bed sheet, the gently shaking golden color was flowing like water, large pieces of crystal clear snow-white skin were exposed to the air, and from time to time there was an inaudible sound coming from her mouth. sleep talking.

Tiptoing out of bed, Hui gently closed the door.

Very good, basically no sound.

Then, go down the stairs and come to the bathroom.

Brush your teeth, wash your hands.

He opened the refrigerator, took out a sandwich wrapped in plastic wrap bought from the supermarket, and put it in the microwave.

While waiting, he slightly combed his hair that had grown below his shoulders.

Put Manager Suzumori's lunch box in the shoulder bag and bring warm sandwiches with you.

"what"

"Almost forgot"

Megumin, who was just about to step out of the entrance door, remembered something, and took out an umbrella with beautiful patterns and exquisite decorations from the bottom of the shoe cabinet.

It sounds like it's been a while since I've seen Miss Morning.

You still remember the contact information she left for you last time, and if you have free time one day when you come back, you can call and visit?

Thinking so, she held up her umbrella, closed the door and walked out.

In the field of vision is the city soaked by rain, and in the blurred scene due to thick cumulonimbus clouds, only the lights of commercial buildings and mixed-use buildings are particularly clear.

Pass the park on the usual route and go through the intersection of the commercial street.

Although she was holding an umbrella, she still tried to walk carefully under the eaves. After all, if she stepped on a puddle or a moving brick, the splashing mud and water would make the day worse than ever.

"Ah?"

Hui, who arrived at the door of the bookstore on time, found that the sign that was supposed to be open was still closed.

Just as he was wondering about the signboard, the glass door of the bookstore suddenly opened from the inside.

"Kato-san, good morning"

The store manager Suzumori greeted her with a smile on his face, and then dragged her straight into the store.

"Boss, what's the matter?"

After drying the wet umbrella on the absorbent carpet at the door, Hui's face showed doubts and incomprehension.

The store manager Suzumori seems to be wearing casual clothes on purpose today, with smooth black hair neatly tied into a ponytail, and wine red pupils that seem to be smiling but not smiling.

"Well...it's nothing, it's just that the bookstore is closed today"

"Huh? Closed?"

The sudden, completely unexpected words made the black pupils more confused.

Suzumori raised his index finger and shook it, and the relaxed tone rang in his ears

"That's it, Kato, have you heard of team building?"

"Team building?...en...I seem to have seen it on the Internet."

Kei nodded uncertainly.

"We are going to team building today~"

"Eh? Eh!!"

----------------------------------------------

Kawabata Station.

The rush hour for going to work and school has passed, and there are only two or three pedestrians on the platform staggering leisurely.

With the sound of the driving bell, the door closed with a bang.

The running tram is still passing slowly between the houses. Two figures sit facing each other in the quiet carriage, and the scenery is constantly passing outside the window.

In the silence, Kei's voice sounded.

"The store manager... where is this going?"

Suzumoru smiled and waved his hands.

"Kato-san, I told you that I'll know when I get to the place, don't worry, just treat today as a fun vacation."

After that, she turned her gaze to the window.

After an unknown amount of time, the passing building suddenly disappeared, and the field of vision widened without warning.

Plain.

In early summer, there are still patches of green fields, like an endless green ocean.

The ancient buildings looming in the distance are in a hazy color against the backdrop of the rain.

Even if this iconic building complex has not been visited several times, it is not uncommon to see it in various TV news and film and television works.

Hui gently said its name

"Kyoto?"

After getting off from the platform, I made another half-way transfer and got on a short-distance bus.

By the time your feet hit the ground again, it was already noon.

Hui held an umbrella and looked around. The green bamboos were lush and velvety, and the raindrops hit the upper bamboo leaves, making a splashing sound.

There is a small pond next to it, the sound of frogs in the rain, and the air is filled with the smell of grass mixed with soil.

After staying in the city for a long time, I am used to seeing high-rise buildings. For Hui, this fresh feeling of the countryside is so familiar but also a little strange.

At the end of the trail is a B&B-style building, which seems to be today's destination.

Hui Momo followed the pace of Ling Shou in front of him, and murmured

"The store manager...can I talk now?"

"It's actually nothing."

Saying that, Suzumori suddenly stopped.

Turning around, the smile on his face disappeared at some point, leaving only tenderness and pity.

"Kato, you must be very tired."

Chapter 62 Chapter 9 Answers

"The store manager.."

Under her gaze, there seemed to be nothing to hide in her heart, and Hui was a little dazed.

But in the next second, a relaxed smile appeared on Ling Shou's face.

It seemed that the emotions that were revealed at that moment just now were all illusions.

"So occasional breaks are also necessary."

Accompanied by the words, Ling Shou stopped and pressed the doorbell beside him.

"crack clap"

The sliding door at the entrance was opened, and an unexpectedly young woman came out, wearing a kimono embroidered with Yae Sakura.

"Ah, ah, welcome... Ah, Yuko!"

Her originally polite words suddenly took on a tone of surprise.

"Riko, long time no see."

"Oh my, it's been a long time. The last time we met was when we were in Ginza last year."

The proprietress covered her mouth with her sleeves and narrowed her eyes happily.

"So, didn't you come to your place today to add some business? Why, you are not welcome~"

Suzumori also spread his hands with a smile on his face.

"How come?! Come in and talk first, hehehe"

The proprietress Lizi waved her hand and gave up her position at the door.

Megumin walked in together behind Suzumoru.

When she passed by Lizi, she saluted with some embarrassment.

"...that, I'm sorry to bother you."

Riko smiled lightly and waved her hands nonchalantly.

"It's okay, Yuko's friends are my friends."

Following the steps, the interior of the building gradually appears in front of you.

Inside the hall is a large space with a simple and simple style, and the octagonal palace lanterns hanging from the ceiling emit orange light.

And facing the door is a screen with a picture of "Hundred Flowers", which is very harmonious with the surrounding elegant environment.

From the passage, you can see traditional style rooms with tatami mats and brightly colored silk embroidery like tapestries on the four walls. The room they entered is also hung with the sacred Matsuo Basho

Famous sentences such as "the moonlight shines brightly in the big bamboo forest, and the sound of rhododendrons is sad to see."

"This is the best room in the store, don't say I don't give you face."

Riko who led them in said this to Suzumori, and blinked mischievously.

"click"

With the sound of the sliding door opening on the other side, the wonderful scenery that only belongs to this room appeared in the field of vision.

The ground is paved with fine sand and gravel, and there is a garden landscape composed of scattered rocks stacked on top of it. It seems that there are a few green bamboo leaves sticking out of the wall outside the courtyard.

As a form of dry landscape, that is, the courtyard does not use water, but is covered with stones and the like.

The engraved white gravel is probably to show the surface of the water, and the concentric circles around the rocks look a bit like ripples...

Although it looks very elegant, but for Kei, it is only elegant.

She even felt that if this place was replaced with a hot spring, it should, no, it would definitely be better.

Suzumori didn't seem to be very interested in these scenes, but instead rushed to have lunch.

"Riko, for example, this one, shouldn't we have lunch first~ What time is it?"

Riko spread her hands helplessly.

"Okay, okay, luckily you came here when I was preparing lunch, otherwise it would be gone in a while."

After speaking, she stood up, and it seemed that she was going to continue preparing lunch.

And Suzuki sat casually on the edge of the courtyard, dangling her slender feet.

"It's good to come out for a breath of fresh air once in a while~"

As she spoke, she turned her head to the side, as if 'I'm right'.
