The long cold night finally passed, and it didn’t rain again. When the sky was getting light, melodious bells could be heard from Xiangchuan Temple at the foot of the mountain.
Qing Keisuke woke up from his long dream, and all the remaining spirituality had been digested and absorbed by him and became a part of his body.
Also thanks to Toyojin's last legacy, his spirituality finally broke through the 500 mark.
Spiritual cleansing sweeps away fatigue.
Of course, the internal weakness will still take time to slowly repair.
He walked out of the warm spring water, shook his arms, legs and feet, rinsed away the hot spring water with the cold water jets, and dried his body. The sun fell on his strong back, casting a long shadow on the ground.
Behind Qing Keisuke came the sound of Hanako No. 7274 slobbering.
"Lord Qinggui, good morning~"
"Good morning, go get me some clothes."
The clothes he wore yesterday were in tatters, and he obviously couldn't wear them out - anyway, No. 7274 only had a little space left to use his talent.
"Yes~"
Aoi Keisuke put on a men's Yukata from Tsuruyu and went to rest in the yard alone with his sleeves tucked in.
The survivors rescued by him and Hoshino from the pure realm were still affected by the spell and could not wake up, and needed him to perform purification. He sat on the recliner, thought for a moment, and then began to prepare for the purification.
——It’s understandable to try some other rescue methods during this period, right?
He first woke up insiders such as Ozawa Sonoko and started the crane soup operation again.
Although they knew about Ozawa Village's past, they were only looking at it in the fog, and they did not retain the memory of the original dream.
Qing Guijie simply used spirituality to have a superficial influence on their cognition, so as not to require him to explain further.
"The rest of the people, just plant the hint of ignoring the abnormality..."
After a while, Ozawa Sonoko and others came over to thank him. Among them, Sawaki Otomo was particularly excited and knelt down directly in front of Aoi Keisuke.
"Mr. Qinggui! Thank you!"
The Demon King had no intention of accepting their gratitude. He said coldly:
"Mr. Zeshu, there is no need to thank me, I am just acting out of interest and it has nothing to do with you.
You have fulfilled the price yourself, and you deserve the result now. Rather than staying here, it is better to go back and see your family as soon as possible."
"Yes, yes!" Otomo Zeshu still couldn't control his joy and excitement, and his hands and feet were a little uncoordinated when he left.
"As for Kitazawa, you all should leave on your own, and remember to keep the secret in your heart.
And General Ozawa, please go make me a pot of morning tea."
"It's so rude..." Ozawa Sonoko bowed deeply to Aoi Keisuke, "I will go and prepare it myself right now."
Qing Keisuke waved his hand, said "Trouble" again, and then dispersed everyone.
Looking at Ozawa Sonoko's back, he was somewhat looking forward to Hoshino's reaction when he really saw Ozawa Sonoko again.
At about eight o'clock in the morning, Miss Hoshino woke up. When she got up, she was attracted by the scenery outside the window and couldn't help but walk closer and open the window.
In the courtyard, the rain-soaked grass and trees gradually reveal their greenery, and the sunshine after the typhoon also looks fresher.
Then she noticed Qing Keisuke lying on a chair not far away, and her still somewhat troubled expression suddenly calmed down.
At this time, Qing Keisuke was leaning sideways, holding his cell phone and chatting with someone unknown.
It looked like he hadn't noticed her.
Hoshino's expression softened slightly and he stared at Qing Keisuke for a while, unable to hear his inner voice because he was too far away.
Hoshino took a few breaths of fresh outdoor air, closed the windows again, and prepared to go out.
Shiraishi sent a bunch of cute emoticons, insisting that he actually didn't believe the message Keisuke Aoi just sent in the first place.
Qing Keisuke said an ambiguous "Yeah". This attitude made the mature and intellectual female doctor angry and made a video call directly.
"Good morning, Dr. Shiraishi."
Seeing Chizuru Shiraishi's pretty face appear on the screen, Keisuke Aoi couldn't help but smile in his eyes.
"Don't try to get close to me, I won't do it~!
Don't put your face so close, show me other places, your hands, chest, and thighs!"
The female doctor grunted like a little pig, and as she spoke, she roughly checked whether Keisuke Aoi was injured.
"Dr. Shiraishi, do you need me to take off my clothes too?"
"I don't want to see it!"
Qing Keisuke pointed the camera at himself again and lay down on the deck chair in the courtyard.
"What are the plans for today?" he asked.
"Waiting for the announcement of the music festival!" Chizuru Shiraishi said: "It feels like the typhoon has passed suddenly. Maybe it will be held as scheduled today."
Qing Keisuke nodded: "It shouldn't rain again today."
"Isn't this weather... related to what you did last night?" Shiraishi Chizuru looked suspicious.
"Yes." Qing Keisuke admitted frankly, "Maybe if you ask Miss Hoshino to send a message, maybe Neon's chaebol also has the ability to make the music festival go on as scheduled."
"..."
When Chizuru Shiraishi heard this, he felt it was ridiculous at first, and then felt that what Aoi Keisuke said made sense.
"Go ahead and say it!" She suddenly changed into a snarky tone.
"...?"
Qing Keisuke looked at her a few times. He originally wanted to tease her, but after thinking about it, he said sincerely: "Dr. Shiraishi, you are very cute when you talk like this."
"You...what are you talking about!"
After hearing this, Chizuru Shiraishi hid like a rabbit next to the camera. Keisuke Qing could only see her half-exposed shoulders, which were fair and delicate, and the outline of her collarbone could be vaguely seen.
"If you kiss me in the air, I'll go tell the president." He joked.
"What are you thinking?!" Chizuru Shiraishi slapped the steel guardrail with her hand, making a "bang" sound, and Tsukishima's voice came faintly from the microphone.
"Don't you want it?" Qing Keisuke put the phone to his ear and let the camera take in the early morning sky.
"Why should I..."
"I'm going to start the countdown. This promise will be invalidated after the countdown."
"You guy, what will you do if Tsukishima hears you!" Shiraishi became angry and lowered his voice, which was also particularly cute.
"Five, four..."
Qing Keisuke began to count down leisurely, and one could clearly feel his comfort and leisure at this time in his tone.
It was like the clouds and wind blowing through the clear summer sky, blowing into Shiraishi's chest, leaving a vague, itchy touch.
"Wait a moment!"
"You guy!"
Shiraishi's chin was exposed on the screen, and half of her lower lip could still be seen. She bargained first, but when she saw that Aoi Keisuke was completely unmoved, she subconsciously bit her lip gently with her teeth.
——Speaking of which, have you ever kissed Keisuke Aoi on your own initiative?
She couldn't remember it all at once.
But because of this, she had a strong urge to kiss Qing Keisuke.
I want to leave my own mark on Qing Keisuke!
This impulse and shyness filled Shiraishi Chizuru's heart, making her hold her breath.
Then when Qing Guijie counted to "one", like a thief, she made sure there was no one around her, then she quietly leaned toward the microphone of her phone, pouted, and made a soft kissing sound.
Damn it, even though I am already 26, why am I still shy when doing this kind of thing?!
Shiraishi Chizuru wished she could pinch her heart to stop it from beating so fast.
"I...I'm so lovable!" She spoke tremblingly, but her tone was a little pretentious.
"Well, I feel like you were kissed on the left side of my neck."
The boy's happy laughter filled the female doctor's chest.
"Let's go to the music festival together tonight."
