"Hoo hoo... Why aren't you saying anything? Are you that afraid of me?"

Suzuki Tomoko breathed into Lin Xiaofeng's ear. Suzuki Tomoko was extremely aggressive, and Lin Xiaofeng was about to lose his grip.

"No, no... it's just that Aunt Tomoko suddenly appeared and startled me."

Lin Xiaofeng swallowed hard and struggled desperately.

"That's good."

Tomoko Suzuki pressed herself against Lin Xiaofeng, scrutinizing the handsome young man before her. Beneath the loose Japanese yukata lay a flawless physique. The boy possessed the imposing physique of a war god, despite his delicate appearance.

Suzuki Tomoko was increasingly captivated by Lin Xiaofeng's beauty, and her slender hand, hidden beneath her sleeve, instinctively reached towards the hem of her yukata, about to slip inside. However, she stopped before the movement even lasted a second. She immediately snapped back to reality, withdrawing her right hand and inwardly rubbing her forehead in a self-deprecating smile. Although she already had two daughters, it was a fact that she was in her forties and had never been in a relationship. She was, after all, a woman, and longed for love.

298. Xiao Feng, you're not going to kick me out, are you?

Under the dim yellow light in the room, the atmosphere gradually became ambiguous.

"Aunt Pengzi, are you planning to stay here?" Lin Xiaofeng couldn't help but ask.

"Yes. There was a murder, and there are only four of us staying at the hotel. I'm scared to stay alone." Tomoko Suzuki blushed and pouted at her daughter's boyfriend, looking incredibly cute. "You're not going to kick me out, are you?"

"Of course not." Lin Xiaofeng tried to calm himself down. "However, we need to sleep separately, otherwise, I don't know what I might do?"

"Ah...of course."

Suzuki Tomoko also needs to assess Lin Xiaofeng's character. If Lin Xiaofeng's character is too bad, she will sacrifice herself to win him over, using all her power to take him by force, so that even Sonoko and Ayako won't be able to touch him.

The two laid out their bedding, slept separately, and the night passed peacefully.

Clearly, Lin Xiaofeng's character is impeccable, not the utterly despicable man Suzuki Tomoko imagined. While Lin Xiaofeng may appear scummy, he is not; he possesses great love, a boundless compassion, and a desire to help all beautiful women ascend to the Western Paradise.

In the morning, after breakfast, the four of them went together to the famous tourist attraction in Izu – the beach.

Lin Xiaofeng was wearing beach shorts, flip-flops, and a sun-protective shirt.

The three women were wearing bikinis, flip-flops, sun hats, and sun-protective clothing.

The bustling beach was a sea of ​​people, with parasols blooming like mushrooms in a jungle, and a row of restaurants stretching out just shortly behind the main road. Golden sunlight streamed down, casting shimmering waves on the sea, reflecting the soaring white seagulls and the towering luxury beachfront hotels in the distance. Cool seawater washed over the sand again and again, leaving only dark brown, wave-like wet streaks.

Click——!

Suddenly, she heard the familiar sound of a camera clicking behind her. Xiaolan, whose legs were still adjusting the wrinkles in her swim trunks a second ago, reflexively stopped and stood up straight. She quickly turned around and saw one of her best friends crouching down behind her, holding a camera to cover the upper half of her face.

"Hey! Sonoko, what are you doing?!"

Xiao Lan, who was already shy, blushed instantly.

Sonoko grinned mischievously: "It's alright, it's alright. Don't worry, I won't show this photo to anyone else. It's for internal circulation, just for me and Xiaofeng to enjoy."

"Sonoko, you're really bullying me." Ran's face was so red it was almost bleeding. It was the same when they played together. Sonoko always teamed up with Lin Xiaofeng to come up with all sorts of weird and wonderful ways to tease her, making her lose face time and time again, which was really super embarrassing.

However, Sonoko didn't care about any of that. She put away her camera and waved to the two people sitting under a parasol on the beach.

"Mommy, Xiaofeng, come and play with us!"

"You play."

Under the parasol, Mio stood with her legs together, leaning to one side. Suzuki Tomohiko waved her hand and replied in a similarly loud voice.

Lin Xiaofeng also didn't get up, but simply waved his hand to indicate that he would rather not.

Tomoko Suzuki was quite understanding; she assumed he wasn't going because he wanted to stay with her, so she turned and smiled gently.

"It's a rare vacation, why not go and have fun with them? I'll be fine here by myself."

"No, I'm just not interested in playing in the water."

After Lin Xiaofeng finished speaking, he lazily lay back down with a thud, putting his arms behind his head. Seeing that he had already said that, Suzuki Tomoko didn't say anything more, only giving a soft "hmm". Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Lin Xiaofeng, admiring his well-defined chest and abdominal muscles until she reached a certain spot, at which point Suzuki Tomoko felt her mouth go dry and her whole body become hot.

"Ah... um, hello everyone..."

Hearing a stranger's voice coming from behind them, the two high school girls who were playing and joking just a moment ago immediately stopped what they were doing.

Looking in the direction of the sound, a young man in his early twenties approached. Judging from his age, he should still be in college. He was wearing a khaki short-sleeved shirt and beach shorts. He had regular features and his hair was neatly combed. There was a hint of embarrassment on his face, which was unintentionally revealed because he was not good at striking up conversations.

"You are……"

Xiaolan maintained a sideways, alert posture, with one arm placed in front of her.

The man in beach shorts seemed oblivious to the wariness, scratching his head sheepishly, "Sorry, sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Dokyo Masahiko, I'm 22 years old and a student at Beika University. It seems you two ladies are here alone, so I thought..."

"Ah? I understand, I understand..."

Before she could finish speaking, Sonoko revealed a malicious smile and patted Ran on the shoulder.

"You must want to ask her out, right? But give up, she's already taken..."

No, actually I wanted to ask you out.

Dokyo Masahiko's direct attack effectively shut down Sonoko's remaining words.

“…Hmm?” Sonoko hadn’t expected that someone would ask her out.

"Well... Sonoko has become so beautiful lately! Especially after she got her new hairstyle."

Since Tomoko Suzuki stopped using her family heirloom headband, her appearance has more than doubled.

"I'm so sorry, I also have a boyfriend."

Dokyo Masahiko was clearly taken aback, wondering how to continue the conversation. A large hand reached out from behind him and firmly gripped Dokyo Masahiko's shoulder.

"We came together."

"Uh……"

Lin Xiaofeng tightened his grip on her shoulder slightly, and the two exchanged a glance before Dao Xiezhengyan raised a question.

"Excuse me, are you this lady's boyfriend?"

"...Yes. I am this lady's boyfriend."

Lin Xiaofeng stretched out his other hand and pointed to the garden.

"And what about this young lady?" Daoxie Zhengyan pointed blankly at Xiaolan.

 (Li Hao) "She's my girlfriend too!"

"……fire"

Lin Xiaofeng's chatter left Lu Lingdao speechless. "Is this kid kid kidding me? It's the 21st century, who openly cheats on someone?"

"Anyway... I'm sorry to have bothered you, I'll be leaving now."

With a wry smile that seemed to convey his helplessness, Daoxie Zhengyan stopped pressing the matter and turned to leave without further ado.

Watching the former's departing figure, Sonoko squinted and muttered a sarcastic remark.

Sonoko: "What's that guy doing?"

Lin Xiaofeng: "I don't know, but it's best to be cautious when strangers approach you."

Xiaolan: "I also think that guy doesn't seem like a good person."

Lin Xiaofeng withdrew his gaze, turned back in the direction he had come from, and gave Suzuki Tomoko, who was waiting under the parasol, an "OK" sign.

Tomoko Suzuki smiled with admiration; this was exactly how a boyfriend should act.

299. Sonoko is jealous of her mother.

Around noon, the four left the beach, changed back into their summer clothes, and headed to a nearby restaurant for lunch.

Restaurants everywhere were packed with people, and it was only with great difficulty that we found a Sea House with an empty seat.

Just as the four of them found a seat and sat down, a familiar voice came from the side.

"Oh? It's you guys again. What a coincidence!"

Not long ago, I saw off Masahiko Dokyo on the beach, but I ran into him again at this restaurant, with a cigarette in his mouth.

Sonoko didn't hold back at all, squinting her eyes and retorting, "Yeah, yeah, what a coincidence! Hey buddy from the club, you didn't follow us here, did you?"

"No, it was just a coincidence." Xiaolan didn't think so. If she were being followed, she would definitely know. She was now a beautiful girl who had mastered Ultra Instinct!

At that moment, a waiter carrying food out of the kitchen went straight to Dokyo Masahiko's table and put down one of the dishes. Clearly, Dokyo Masahiko had arrived long ago.

Sonoko also realized this, and thinking back to the 170 wrongful accusations she had just made based on preconceived notions, she couldn't help but awkwardly purse her lips: "Never mind, never mind."

Suzuki Tomoko had already started ordering food. Ran glanced over and noticed that Dokyo Masahiko was sitting there alone. She couldn't help but wonder, "Mr. Dokyo, are you traveling alone?"

"Huh?" Daoxie Zhengyan, who was about to reach for his chopsticks, seemed surprised to be spoken to even though he had almost been mistaken for a stalker. He paused for a moment, blinked a couple of times, and then nodded. "Yeah, I'm alone. Well... I was originally planning to come with my girlfriend this year, but she dumped me last year, so I had to come alone this year."

"This year……"

Xiaolan felt that there was something more to this statement than met the eye.

"Does Mr. Daoxie come to Izu often?"

"Yeah, I come almost every year."

Seeing that someone was willing to talk to him, Daoxie Zhengyan immediately started talking non-stop.

"I've been coming to Izu almost every summer since high school, so I guess you could call me a local. If you need any recommendations for tourist attractions, feel free to ask me... Oh, by the way, are you staying at a hotel nearby?"

"As for us..." Xiaolan stopped, realizing how gullible she had been. She smiled softly and then fell silent.

Daoxie Zhengyan stiffened slightly, then immediately put on an innocent smile: "My mistake, I shouldn't have asked such a personal question."

After saying that, he put down his cigarette on the table and began to eat.

Before long, the dishes for Lin Xiaofeng and his group were served. Traditional Japanese home-style dishes: curry chicken rice, grilled seafood, fried shrimp…

A bespectacled, dark-skinned waiter suddenly stopped next to Masahiko Michiwaki, his tone curt as he glanced at the cigarettes on the table.

"Please be careful not to drop cigarette ash on the floor, otherwise it will be a hassle to clean up."

"oh oh……"

Daoxie Zhengyan's attitude was quite proper; after being reminded, he immediately stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray.

Seeing this, the male waiter turned to Lin Xiaofeng and the others, still speaking in that hard and wooden tone, as if made of stone.

"We have a lot of customers at lunchtime, so please finish your meal and leave as soon as possible."

"……what?"

The gardener was immediately displeased; how could anyone do business like that?

Lin Xiaofeng gently patted Yuanzi's shoulder to calm her down, saying that this was common at tourist attractions.

 (bhbe) Xiaolan squinted at the waiter: "Maybe it's just my imagination, but I feel like we've seen that person somewhere before?"

"That waiter from earlier?" Sonoko scratched the back of her head, also finding him familiar.

Lin Xiaofeng reminded the two girls, "Isn't he the one who appeared in the stands when Xiaolan participated in the karate league?"

"Oh. I remember now." Sonoko slapped her forehead; she did indeed recall it.

"That's not all." Xiaolan recalled the man's background, "He is Makoto Kyogoku, the All-Japan Karate Champion, known as the 'Kicking Prince.' I never expected him to be working in a place like this."

"Speaking of which, Xiaofeng, your memory is really good. You even remembered that the other person was in the audience." Suzuki Tomoko joined the conversation.

"Back then, you were at the Mi Yang Hua Ti Qi Yu Lin Hall, and that guy was secretly peeking at the garden! Qi!"

"Huh? Huh?" Sonoko exclaimed in surprise, "There's such a thing?"

"Hehehe... I didn't know our daughter was so popular. I thought she was too carefree and didn't act like a girl at all." Suzuki Tomoko laughed.

"Aunt Pengzi is so beautiful, how could her daughter be ugly?"

"Yes, neither my sister nor I are as pretty as my mom." Sonoko Suzuki pouted. She knew Lin Xiaofeng was into women like her mother.

"Sonoko. You're not jealous of your mom again, are you? I suddenly find you so adorable." Tomoko Suzuki laughed heartlessly.

Sonoko snorted and stopped talking. How could a little girl possibly compete with her shrewish mother who had been navigating the business world for decades?

After lunch, the group went sightseeing and shopping. Besides the beach, Izu has many other fun places, including various tourist attractions and unique shopping streets.

The four of them had a great time, especially Lin Xiaofeng and Suzuki Tomoko, who became very close friends despite their age difference, and their relationship progressed rapidly.

It was finally evening. It should have been the time of vibrant sunset, but the distant horizon was covered with dark clouds, and not a single glimpse of the fiery red sun could be seen.

After a day of fun, the four decided to go back to their hotel to rest, so they started walking back.

Suddenly, Lin Xiaofeng caught a glimpse of a familiar figure flashing past and disappearing into the alleyway on the left.

Lin Xiaofeng narrowed his eyes. If he wasn't mistaken, that person was indeed Michiwaki Masahiko.

"Michiwaki Masahiko has started committing crimes again? Why not take this free reward? Catching him in the act saves me the trouble of deducing and finding evidence."
