Kamaba Yui had a full meal and took the initiative to wash the pots and dishes. Before going back to resume her duties, she went to Aoi Keisuke to replenish the handsome man's energy for a while.
"Qinggui-kun, I will go back first. If there is a banquet, the shrine will be ready and will come to pick you up then."
"good."
After Kamaba Yui left, Aoi Keisuke watched the live broadcast of the "cousins" Kobayashi Rena and Hina. Their first album was about to be released.
I heard from Rena Kobayashi that they will be arranged by Kinoshita Koiko to appear on an online music talk show to compete in singing competitions.
As for the name of the album, the school girl claimed to keep it secret and only told Qing Keisuke that it would be released on the last day of summer vacation.
Of course, because they are new singers, only a thousand copies of their first physical album were produced, and they did not even have an offline store.
Everything will have to wait until it goes online and listen to the audience’s feedback before continuing with production.
Qing Keisuke asked them to reserve a signature ticket.
At that time, Rena Kobayashi replied with a big hippo like emoticon.
As for Hina, although she added Qing Keisuke's line, she basically didn't chat with him.
Qing Keisuke used his spiritual power to attract a deck chair and sat outside the balcony, enjoying the late summer evening breeze.
He originally wanted to consider the arrangements for the "Sword Master's Banquet", but it was difficult for him to calm down.
Being around these girls, his mind couldn't help but be affected by them, and he couldn't let go of them even when he was alone.
He liked Arisugawa Asuka and Shiraishi, but he was worried that after confessing, there would never be another gathering like tonight.
How to make Arisukawa forgive his despicable self?
He thought of Arisukawa's smile tonight, his heart was touched by it, and he wanted to protect this smile.
Maybe it was wrong to confess?
Qing Keisuke held his chest. He had to admit that he was unwilling to take any risks.
If you can cheat forever, is that also a way?
Arisukawa is just an ordinary person, and he has enough ability to deceive her for a lifetime.
But he could never make up his mind. Whether he confessed or used magic, he lost the decisiveness of the Demon King and turned into an ordinary, ordinary and indecisive male high school student, Qing Keisuke.
At the end of his thoughts, he vaguely remembered the scene where Hoshino Fujiko confessed to him.
The girl's expression at that time was not one of teasing cunning nor cold indifference.
Aoi Keisuke couldn't understand it, but maybe Hoshino himself didn't understand it either.
He lay down on the chair and fell asleep, then spent the night on the balcony.
…
Early the next morning, he woke up, changed his clothes, and went for a morning run with Arisugawa.
This time, he matched Arisukawa's preferred speed and ran about five or six kilometers before stopping to rest.
The girl gasped delicately, her face was flushed, her hair was wet with sweat, and strands stuck to her cheeks.
Qing Keisuke used his spirituality to quietly relieve her fatigue. After resting for a while, they began to run back.
As they approached the apartment, they slowed down and began to walk at a walking pace to relieve the lactic acid in their muscles.
"Aishikawa, is there anywhere you want to go?" Qing Keisuke asked.
"Huh?"
Arisukawa was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "You can't cheat, Qinggui-kun, you have to think about it yourself."
"It's so hard to think about."
Aoi Keisuke honestly confessed that Tokyo and Kyoto were not considered, and distance and commuting had to be considered. This issue was indeed difficult for the Demon King.
“How about climbing Mount Fuji?”
July to September is the time when hiking is open to tourists.
"Fuji?"
"Well, I'm going to Yamanashi Prefecture to climb the Yoshida Route. Two days and one night are just enough to watch the sunrise on the mountain."
Watch the sunrise!
Arisukawa's heart skipped a beat, and then he began to think deeply - what words should he use to hide it from his smart old mother and make her ignore the fact that he had been away from home for two days and one night?
"Don't you like it?" Qing Keisuke asked.
"No, it's not!"
Arisukawa immediately said: "I'm just thinking about how to convince my mother."
"Ah, Mrs. Arisukawa."
Qing Keisuke had a look of understanding.
If she knew that she was taking Arisukawa out to play, when they met in the future...
Qing Keisuke didn't want to imagine that painful scene.
The two looked at each other, tacitly guessing what the other was thinking.
"Then let's finalize the itinerary first. I'll book the itinerary and the room, and then we'll figure it out together."
"good!"
Arisukawa quickly agreed.
She has been a good girl since she was a child. If she is asked to figure out her own solution, she may be in a dilemma.
But after agreeing, she felt a little shy.
——To spend the night outside with Aoi Keisuke is a very deviant behavior according to the education she received.
But her chest was filled with courage and she was unwilling to fall behind.
No matter it is Miss Kamaba or Teacher Shiraishi, she will never lose!
Moreover, in her heart she really wanted to watch the sunrise with Qing Keisuke.
The two of them usually parted ways on the ninth floor of the apartment. Arisukawa had a rare look of anxiety and guilt on her face, and she said she would bring breakfast up to Keisuke Aoi later.
While Aoi Keisuke agreed, he thought to himself - doesn't this convey the same message to Mrs. Arisugawa?
What he didn't know was that this was the trick Mrs. Arisukawa taught her daughter.
Take advantage of victory!
If Arisukawa didn't bring breakfast, he would definitely be cricketed by his mother.
The elevator door slowly closed, and Qing Keisuke couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Although his arrangement still faced a big obstacle, Mrs. Arisikawa, fortunately, he met Arisikawa's request.
However, according to Arisukawa's character, she might happily support whatever plan he proposes.
"Ding dong——"
The elevator soon stopped on the thirteenth floor. He walked out of the iron door and stood in the aisle for a while before returning to his home.
Aoi Keisuke is hesitant to use magic on Mrs. Arisugawa.
But soon, he put this idea aside and only regarded it as a last resort.
He took out his mobile phone and confirmed the time and route first.
The Yoshida Route on Mount Fuji is the simplest and most popular route, and there are direct buses from Tokyo.
There are other routes for mountaineering, but in comparison, they are either more rugged or lack mountain huts and facilities, so overall, the Yoshida route is more suitable for two people to travel.
Of course, even the simplest mountaineering route takes nearly 11 hours to climb and descend.
So usually you have to prepare for two days and one night.
Since it was not a weekend, there were not many hikers, so Aoi Keisuke successfully booked two mountain huts at the seventh station.
The so-called combined eyes are the term used for mountains.
It is divided into ten sections from the trailhead to the top of the mountain. The trailhead is the "1st Station" and the top of the mountain is the "10th Station".
Most of the inns and mountain huts on Mount Fuji are located at the seventh and eighth stations.
In many cases, it is not necessary to reach the top when climbing. You can also see the spectacular sunrise at the seventh and eighth stations.
If you try to climb to the top, you have to consider the high altitude and physical strength. Qing Keisuke has no intention of turning the two of them's warm trip into an extreme sport, so climbing to the seventh station is enough.
Of course, if you are not planning to climb a mountain, booking a hot spring hotel in Lake Kawaguchi around Mount Fuji is also a good choice.
Here you can enjoy the panoramic view of Mount Fuji while soaking in hot springs.
If he were traveling with Kamaba, Aoi Keisuke might choose a hotel here.
