The snow falls on my body, cool and comfortable.

The sky and the earth were covered in white. In the heavy snow, they walked towards the wooden house on the snow.

"What are your plans for the afternoon? Do you want to go fishing?" Toru Watanabe asked loudly.

"Take a nap, and then have work to do." Miki Kujo put her hands in her pockets.

Qing Ye Lin hugged herself: "I also plan to take a nap and stay in the dormitory to read in the afternoon."

After walking away, Toru Watanabe looked back.

In the heavy snow, the barbecue restaurant with lights on and smoke coming out of the chimney looked like a mirage.

It was noon on a snowy day.

Chapter 185 Winter Camping (7)

Back at the cabin, the two young ladies had something to do, so Toru Watanabe also returned to his assigned room.

The boys have returned, their sweaty and dirty clothes are scattered all over the floor, and four of them are gathered there playing mahjong.

"Watanabe, where have you been?" Saito Keisuke asked while sorting the cards.

"While you were away, I took a bath in the hot spring by myself for a while." Toru Watanabe replied.

"You are really smart." The squad leader adjusted his glasses with his index finger, "When we went to take a bath, we opened our eyes and saw someone's butt on our face."

"Watanabe, are you coming? I can let you." Another boy who was a little more distant asked in a room of five people.

"No, you go play, I just want to read a book."

"See? Who would dare to be jealous of Watanabe's No. 1 in the country? He relies on hard work!" Kunii Osamu held a long chip in his mouth, "Wait, don't move the cards, eat!"

Saito Keisuke complained: "Can you please not hold it in your mouth? When you win later, your saliva will be all over it."

"Wait until you win!"

"Excuse me, touching myself."

"really?!"

The noise these guys make playing cards is about to blow the roof off.

Toru Watanabe took out "Remembrance of Things Past" from his bag, left the room and prepared to find a quiet place.

I tucked the book under my arm, put my hands in my pockets, and walked aimlessly for a while.

Just as he was about to go to the cafe to read a book and enjoy the snow scenery, he ran into Koizumi Aona and Akiko.

It was snowing lightly and they held an umbrella together. The hot air they exhaled spread outside the umbrella.

"Watanabe?" Koizumi Aona looked over.

"Hello, teachers." Watanabe Toru still had his hands in his pockets. "Where have you been?"

"I underestimated you, Watanabe-san." Akiko said with admiration.

"..."

Koizumi Aona gently nudged Akiko's side with her elbow and said to Watanabe Toru:

"We just came back from dinner. Are you going somewhere? It's going to snow heavily later. The school forbids students from going out. They must stay in the dormitory. Didn't the people in your dormitory tell you?"

“They are playing mahjong.”

"These children..." Koizumi Aona sighed helplessly, "If you have something to do, the teacher can go with you."

"It's okay. They are too noisy. I just want to find a quiet place to read." Toru Watanabe gestured to the "Remembrance of Things Past" in his arms.

"You are very hardworking, young man." Akiko's tone sounded very frivolous. "Let's go to our teacher's dormitory. It's just Qingna and I. We won't disturb you."

Koizumi Aona thought about it and looked at Watanabe Toru with an inquiring look.

"No need, I'll go back and watch them play mahjong." Watanabe Toru turned around and prepared to leave.

"Come back!" Akiko stepped out of the umbrella and grabbed his shoulders with both hands. "I'm curious about your romantic history. Come to our room and tell us about it."

Toru Watanabe looked at Aona Koizumi with a look of help.

"Akira has been talking to me since just now." Koizumi Aona said with a wry smile.

"Don't even think about running away, follow me!"

"Teacher Akiko, stop pushing, my book is going to fall!"

After walking a few steps, the book really fell on the snow, but Huangzi still pushed him hard as if he was afraid that he would run away.

Koizumi Aona looked at the two of them with a helpless smile on her face.

She bent down, picked up the book, and followed.

Teachers' rooms are more luxurious than students'.

There is a TV, a small refrigerator, a tea room, a kotatsu, and two large beds.

Akiko pushed Watanabe Toru into the kotatsu, and a basket of oranges was placed on the kotatsu table.

Koizumi Aona took off her coat, made some tea, and sat down in the kotatsu.

Akiko put her cold hands between her legs to warm them up, and said to Watanabe Toru impatiently:

"Say it quickly!"

"say what?"

"The matter between you and the two young ladies, Kiyono Rin and Kujo Miki!"

"Meiji is my girlfriend, Kiyono is my friend," Toru Watanabe held the tea in both hands, "It's over."

"Stop pretending to be confused!" Huangzi raised his hand, slapped the table in a bluffing manner, and immediately put it back between his legs.

"I'm not pretending, I'm really confused, Mr. Akiko, what do you want to say?"

"Still pretending! Then tell me first, why did you run out of the women's bathroom?"

"I'm curious."

"Curious? Do you think normal people would believe this?"

"I'm really curious, so I'll go in and take a look when no one is around."

Koizumi Aona peeled two oranges, gave one to each of them, and while peeling her own, she watched the two people quarreling with a smile.

Just as Akiko kept asking questions and Watanabe Toru was talking about other things, from commenting on orange juice to "criticizing" the luxury of the teacher's room, and finally reminiscing about the winter in Iwate Prefecture, there was a knock on the door.

"Knock, knock, knock." A very polite way to knock on the door.

"Who is this?" Koizumi Aona stood up from the kotatsu and walked towards the door.

Watanabe Toru didn't hear the door open, but he felt a gust of cold wind coming from the other side and knew that the door was opened.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Koizumi."

"Kiyono-san? Good afternoon, what can I do for you?"

"I want to apply for permission to go out, right here in the cafe, and I'll be there reading a book the whole time."

"Are the other people in your dormitory also playing mahjong?"

"Hmm?" Toru Watanabe imagined the cute look of Kiyono Rin tilting her head in confusion.

Then, I heard Kiyono Rin explain:

"They were playing, but I was too embarrassed to make any noise because I was reading a book. I didn't want to accept other people's kindness because I would cause trouble for them."

"That's it, okay then."

"What's good about that?" Akiko came over and grabbed Kiyono Rin's wrist, which was thin even with her winter coat. "You came at the right time. To interrogate someone, you need two criminals."

"Teacher Akiko..."

"Akira..."

Before Kiyono Rin and Koizumi Aona could finish their conversation, Akiko had already pulled Kiyono Rin, whose "combat power was 3, which dropped to 1 in winter," into the room.

Pulling Kiyono Rin near the kotatsu, she hurried to the bathroom again.

"Hello, we meet again." Toru Watanabe stuffed a slice of orange into his mouth.

Qing Ye Lin looked down at him and said, "Why are you here?"

"If nothing goes wrong, we were going to meet at the coffee shop."

Kiyono Rin noticed the "Remembrance of Things Past" on the kotatsu table, recalled what Akiko said, and roughly understood what happened.

"It seems you are very unlucky."

"Each each other."

"Why are you still standing?" Akira came out of the toilet, "Hurry and sit down!"

Kiyono Rin, who was not much stronger than a puppet at the mercy of others, was forced into the kotatsu again.

"Teacher Akiko." She called out with a hint of dissatisfaction.

"Come, eat an orange." Huangzi stuffed a bright yellow, round orange into her hand.

Qingye Rin glanced at Orange and sighed softly: "Thank you."

She began to peel the orange with graceful movements.

Those hands were as slender and delicate as glass, giving people the feeling that they would break if bent.

I don’t know if it feels as cold as glass to the touch.

Koizumi Aona poured her a cup of hot tea.

"Thank you." Qingye Rin thanked softly.

"Kiyono-san," Teacher Akiko leaned forward, "When did you and Watanabe-san start dating?"

Qingye Rin looked at Watanabe Toru and said, "You are talking nonsense again."

"No, have you already determined that I'm talking nonsense?" Watanabe Toru had no place to argue.

"Isn't it natural that Watanabe Toru is talking nonsense?"

"It makes sense... Although it makes sense!" Watanabe Toru's tone became heavier, and then it became lighter, "But it really didn't happen this time."

Qingye Rin nodded and looked at Akiko: "Teacher, what do you want to ask?"

Akiko's cheeks had already flushed with excitement when she heard the conversation between the two:

"When did you start dating? Does Kujo Miki know about this? What are your plans for the future? Are you going to drive Kujo away, or live in harmony with him? Are there any political considerations from the big families involved?"

Kiyono Rin calmly ate a slice of orange, and her eyes like the galaxy in Kasuga looked at Watanabe Toru again.

"Crazy." Toru Watanabe concluded lightly.

"Watanabe, how can you talk about the teacher like that!" Akiko scolded.

"I roughly understand the situation." Qing Ye Lin stuffed another orange slice into the mouth, "Teacher Akiko, you misunderstood, Watanabe and I are just friends."

"I understand, teacher, I understand. I won't tell Kujo Miki-san. Go ahead."

Akiko must have misunderstood something.

Qing Ye Lin sighed helplessly: "I really don't have any relationship with him."

"You're so stubborn." Akiko lay weakly on the table.

"Akira, it's almost done," said Koizumi Aona.

She heard that Qingye Rin was a straightforward child who never lied, but that didn't seem to be the case.

The room fell into silence. The hum of the heater could be heard and snow was falling outside the window.

"Right!" Akiko suddenly sat up, "Let's play a game!"

"Teacher Akiko, I'm here to read a book." Kiyono Rin rejected it without hesitation.

"Three votes in favor and one vote against. What about you?" Akiko looked at Koizumi Aona and Watanabe Toru.

"Where did the three votes in favor come from?" Watanabe Toru asked curiously.

"I'm a teacher, an adult, and the initiator, so I get exactly three votes." Akiko said as if it was a matter of course.
