Tokyo: Am I the only male tenant?

"Well...thank you for your hard work, Sosuke..."

Ginjo handed the suitcase in his hand to Matsumoto Sachiko and picked up the shopping bags for three people with both hands.

As soon as he held them in his hands, he realized that each bag contained several large bottles of purified water or drinks.

Maybe they were packed separately to avoid making the bag too heavy.

There is no problem with the weight, but the pressure of the plastic bag digging into my fingers is a little uncomfortable.

"Is this really okay, Sousuke? I'll take it."

Hoshino Chiaki looked at Ginjō's face worriedly.

It only took a few minutes, which was nothing for Yincheng who exercised all year round.

"Don't worry, Qianqiu still doesn't believe in my strength?"

A reassuring smile quickly appeared on Ginjo Sousuke's face.

"Chiaki, Sousuke is obviously just trying to look cool right now, so just ignore him."

"Shut up! You're the one who shouldn't care about me!"

Although Chie Hoshino looked tired, she still came to find Ginjo's happiness.

"Hey kids, here we are."

As Ginjo and the Hoshino sisters were interacting like this, Matsumoto Tomoko's voice reminded them that the villa was right in front of them.

When the men looked up, they saw a two-story cabin built in an open space in the forest.

Standing quietly among trees, this building is characterized by its large wooden terrace.

The yard was large enough to graze animals and was covered with lawn, but perhaps because no one had lived there for a long time, the grass and weeds were very long.

If you look closely, you can see that the whole house is very old.

Even if you want to flatter it, you can't say it's neat and clean, but it creates a mysterious atmosphere.

How should I put it? If I describe it as "there seems to be a space where a chinchilla might run out at any time", it would be more accurate.

"Wow, what a great place."

Matsumoto Sachiko couldn't help but sigh.

"Indeed, but cleaning it up might be very tiring."

Chie Hoshino poured a little cold water on her.

"It's okay. To repay Mr. Hojo for lending us the villa, we have to clean it up."

Chiaki Hoshino said this with shining eyes.

"Wait for me a second."

She took out the key from her bag and opened the door, and everyone stepped into the villa together.

After opening the door of the cabin, Chie Hoshino rushed in first as usual.

The moment Ginjō followed him into the house, a unique smell mixed with the scent of wood and dust rushed into his nostrils.

Just as Chiaki Hoshino said, no one has used this place for a while, so the air is probably not circulating.

Cleaning the villa is a condition of using the villa, but it seems that it may be more troublesome than you think.

Just as he was thinking this—

"Wow! This is awesome too!"

Chie Hoshino's cheers came from inside the room.

"Everyone, come and see!"

Several people responded to her call and walked over, and immediately understood why she was cheering so loudly.

There is a stylish living room covered in brightly hued wood.

The walls and floors are all paved with wooden planks, creating a warm atmosphere unique to the cabin.

The reason why lighting and furniture also use the same color scheme is probably because of the overall tone of the space.

The most eye-catching feature is the wood-burning fireplace in the corner of the room.

Even if it is not used in summer, it is still a symbol of the villa.

They were shocked by the extraordinary feeling of the secret house.

"This villa is even more beautiful than I imagined. It surprised me."

The usually quiet Chiaki Hoshino rarely showed excitement.

Ginjo understood how she felt, and he now also felt the excitement that came with traveling.

Although he came here just to relax as the summer vacation was about to end, the beautiful villa beyond imagination still made him very happy.

"Everyone come here quickly, there's a surprise!"

Chie Hoshino, who had been in the living room until just now, disappeared, and this time her voice came from a little further away.

After leaving the living room, they followed the sound and saw her sticking her head out in the front of the corridor.

"Hurry up, hurry up, I didn't expect there would be such a thing!"

"What's it this time?"

When they walked up to Chie Hoshino, they were so surprised that they were speechless.

Because a spacious bathroom that looked like a hot spring facility was right in front of them.

The spacious rock bath looks like it can accommodate four or five people at the same time, and there is a small courtyard outside the glass window.

You can walk to the courtyard by opening the floor-to-ceiling windows. It can be considered a semi-open-air hot spring.

At night, you can definitely see the beautiful starry sky.

"Actually, this bathroom has hot springs flowing out of it."

Chiaki Hoshino spoke softly in the crowd.

"real or fake?!"

"Mmm, that's amazing!"

Does that mean you can take a refreshing bath in the hot spring every day?

Chie Hoshino and Sachiko Matsumoto both looked at her with surprise.

"There is a hot spring area nearby. We can bring the hot springs from there to the villa area. If we sign a contract, we can even bring them directly to the villa."

"I asked Hojo-sensei, and it seems the contract is still valid."

It seems that Chiaki Hoshino has made sufficient preparations for this vacation.

"Very good!!!"

Chie Hoshino and Sachiko Matsumoto held hands and started dancing.

Ginjo, who was listening intently at the side, also wanted to join them in the celebration. In fact, after taking a mixed family bath at his wife's house yesterday, he had always wanted to get more women to join in.

Such a spacious private hot spring is much better than the conditions in a home bathroom. I didn’t expect that my wish would come true in this way so soon. It was really an unexpected surprise.

Is there any higher enjoyment than soaking in the gentle water of a pool with four beautiful women with proud figures at the same time?

Even though there was still a lot of cleanup to do, Ginjo felt like he had so much energy that he couldn't let it all out.

"I know everyone wants to start soaking in the hot springs right away to wash off the sweat, but should we clean the room first?"

As a professional with extensive experience in apartment management, Tomoko Matsumoto gave advice to the excited young people with a faint smile.

If you soak in a hot spring just for the sake of temporary enjoyment, it will be difficult to carry out your subsequent work.

Not to mention that cleaning the room will only leave dust everywhere, and it will all be in vain even if you clean it very hard.

"Tomoko-sister is right. Although the pool looks clean at first glance, no one has used it this year. If you look closely, you will find a lot of dust and dirt."

"The other rooms and the lawn in front also need to be cleaned, so let's clean everything before setting up the hot spring."

Chiaki Hoshino nodded in agreement.

Although Matsumoto Sachiko and Hoshino Chie were still immersed in the excitement of discovering the hot spring, they both agreed that it would be better to clean the room first.

Ginjo Sosuke wanted to open all the windows in the villa first to allow the indoor air to circulate.

"There are a lot of rooms, so it might be a bit troublesome, but we'll try to clean them up."

"Don't rush to finish it all today. Just take your time to get it done while we're here."

"That's true. Let's put the luggage in the room before we start cleaning. Is the dormitory on the second floor, Qianqiu?"

"Yeah, there are three bedrooms on the second floor."

"It will be like when we were in Okinawa. Sachiko and I will share a room, Chie and Chiaki will share a room, and finally, Sosuke-kun will have a room to himself."

Tomoko Matsumoto said this based on her experience during the previous group trip.

This allows the closest people to live together while also leaving plenty of room for free activities.

As long as Ginjō had a room to himself, it meant he could go to his place at any time and do something that needed to be out of sight of other people.

"Wait a minute, Sister Tomoko!"

Chie Hoshino interrupted to express her objection.

"Hmm? Anything wrong, Chie?"

"Since we are traveling together, why don't we let Sachiko sleep in the same room with us? This way, we won't disturb you even if we play until late~"

So this is what Chie Hoshino was thinking about. And it is true. The three of them are always together when they are at home.

Yincheng certainly doesn't care. With this allocation, he and his wife can connect with each other more freely.

"Eh? Wouldn't it be too crowded for three people to share a room?"

Matsumoto Tomoko asked subconsciously.

"It's okay. At most we can just put the two beds together. We used to do this a lot when we went out for school camps."

"What do you think, Chiaki, Sachiko?"
