He is an idol and a childhood sweetheart.

"You guys pack your luggage first. I'll go out and ask the waiter for something and I'll be back soon."

After saying that, he immediately picked up his mobile phone, turned around and left the room...

........................

"...!"

After Kento Watanabe left, Toru Asakura immediately turned to look at Enka Higuchi, as if he was planning to convey something with his eyes.

When Higuchi Enka saw this, he subconsciously dodged for a moment, but after realizing that he had no room for "detour", he could only sigh helplessly.

"At least... let's wait until after dinner. Taking a bath on an empty stomach will cause hypoglycemia."

"Well, that's true..."

Asakura Toru, who thought what Higuchi Enka said was reasonable, could only nod his head, then leaned over to open his suitcase and sorted out the things he would use next——

"Hey...you guy."

The first time he saw Asakura Toru's suitcase, Higuchi Enka immediately showed an unacceptable expression.

"No matter how much you say this kind of thing... you can't just put it on top, right?"

"...Ah, because it is a more important thing, I specially put it in a more conspicuous position."

Asakura Toru said while holding the box marked with the number 0.01 in his hand.

"What should I do? Hide it directly under the pillow or quilt?"

"...I just don't think it's necessary."

"?"

"Because it's impossible for him to do this with us."

Higuchi Enka's tone was extremely confident.

"Although he did agree to our request, it doesn't mean that he will really be at our mercy."

"I know, so I just brought this just in case."

Toru Asakura shook the box in his hand calmly.

"Aunt Mai said that even if you may not be able to use it, you must definitely prepare in advance."

"...What on earth did you two talk about?"

"Hey, this is all knowledge we can use."

"…………"

Although Higuchi Enka has been complaining about Asakura Toru, she herself was actually fully prepared mentally before setting off.

Even if she didn't directly wear safety equipment like Toru Asakura, she had already simulated various scenarios in her mind and supplemented the corresponding knowledge on the Internet...

And, it's not that she is looking forward to that kind of thing happening!She just wanted to know how far the current Kento Watanabe would allow the two of them to go...

"Dinner time is about an hour away. You two can change your clothes first... ah."

As soon as Kento Watanabe returned to the room after asking about the schedule, he inevitably saw what Asakura Toru was holding.

And Toru Asakura was too hasty to transfer the box in his hand to another place.

s position--

"...Anyway, let's pack our luggage first."

Just when the two of them thought that they would inevitably be lectured next, Kento Watanabe deliberately averted his eyes to the side, walked to his suitcase as if nothing happened, and began to pack it up calmly.

"!"

Upon seeing this, Toru Asakura hurriedly gave Higuchi Enka a look full of surprise.

In her opinion, Kento Watanabe's behavior of deliberately ignoring them seemed to be acquiescing to their next actions.

While Higuchi Enka was shocked, she also felt something similar to "determination" from Kento Watanabe's unusual reaction...

(What will happen next...)

This slightly uneasy and expectant hot spring trip has just begun.

Chapter 76: Abnormal attitude, unusual cooperation

Kento Watanabe prepares the highest-priced set menu, so the quality of the meals delivered will naturally not disappoint.

Seeing the two childhood sweethearts enjoying the food with peace of mind, Kento Watanabe also felt a very strong sense of satisfaction.

(With the previous financial situation of the firm, there would definitely be no way for them to enjoy this kind of service... Haha, it’s great to have worked hard in the past two months!)

Kento Watanabe feels happy for this from the bottom of his heart.

(Next time if I have a chance, I’ll bring everyone with me.)

As a token of appreciation to everyone who works hard on weekdays... it's not a bad idea to spend money once in a while.

"Hey, sage."

While Kento Watanabe was still imagining the scene of members of the Watanabe Office traveling together, Toru Asakura suddenly approached him and asked expectantly:

"It's a rare opportunity to relax completely. Why don't you have a drink or two?"

"……kindness?"

"Look, they have prepared it in advance! This wine is called...'Dassai'! It seems to be a very high-end sake? Why don't you try it a little bit?"

"..."

After hearing this, Kento Watanabe was silent for a long time. Then he glanced at Toru Asakura's shining eyes, and then at the bottle of wine on the table whose value even a layman could see at a glance. He chuckled and shook his head.

I see, was that the idea?

"Well, since it's rare to prepare such a good wine... then I'll have a drink."

"Okay!"

After receiving a positive reply, Asakura Toru immediately picked up the bottle with eyes shining.

"I'll pour the wine for the sage! The sage just needs to sit there!"

"...Hey? Do you want to serve so attentively?"

"It's just a gift in return for taking care of you!"

"Well, then please."

"…………"

Really... so cooperative.

Looking at the guy who was smiling and watching Toru Asakura pour the wine, Higuchi Enka frowned deeply.

Although the most important thing when traveling is to have fun, Kento Watanabe's current attitude... is really too cooperative.

And judging from his reaction when he just saw "that thing", he seemed to be well aware of what was going to happen next.

If that's the case... then wouldn't it be surprising to say that the cooperative attitude he showed at this time...

For a moment, Higuchi Enka, who had always been a little uneasy, became even more nervous.

........................

After dinner time, it was natural to reach the highlight of this trip to Hokkaido - the hot spring session.

Just when the two of them thought that Kento Watanabe would let them enter the hot spring first, Kento Watanabe directly stretched out his hand and put it on the button of his shirt——

"Anyway, even if I deliberately stagger the time, you two will probably still force yourself to take a bath at the same time as me. If that's the case, it's better to just go together."

Under the stunned gazes of the two people, Kento Watanabe, who had loosened his collar, said:

"However, I have a minimum condition...that is, you must wear a towel when entering. Do you understand?"

"………………"*2

Probably because they were used to seeing Kento Watanabe's neatly dressed and serious style, but now after seeing Kento Watanabe's "messy" posture with his collarbone and chest exposed, the two of them were immediately struck by the contrast. Hit the strike zone.

Even Higuchi Enka, who had had close contact with Kento Watanabe, still couldn't resist such a direct visual impact.

Not to mention giving a response, the two of them could no longer even manage the most basic expressions of idols.

"Well, I'll just assume you've listened."

Seeing that there was no response from the two of them, Kento Watanabe did not continue to ask any more questions. He just casually dropped a warning and walked straight to the dressing room behind the wooden door, leaving only the stunned two people to continue where they were. Stunned...

........................

It wasn't until Kento Watanabe closed the wooden door again that Asakura Toru finally came to his senses and immediately looked at Higuchi Enka with a shocked expression.

"This, this, this, what is going on!?"

What shocked her was naturally Kento Watanabe's attitude.

It was clear that before this, Kento Watanabe had always refused and restrained her offensive. However, today the other party not only did not refuse, but even expressed his disapproval.

Showing an extremely "cooperative" attitude...

"Is it possible...that today's matter can really be accomplished? Didn't I prepare all my things in vain?"

"……how can that be possible?"

Higuchi Enka shook his head, directly denying Toru Asakura's optimistic view.

"The reason why he acted so calmly is that he probably guessed the action we were going to take... Considering his acting style, he probably has already thought about how to deal with it."

"...In other words, he agreed to our request even after guessing our plan?"

Asakura Toru frowned slightly.

"Although the chance of success has increased...but there is always a feeling of being underestimated."

"That's because he's confident enough to figure out what's going to happen next."

Higuchi Enka said.

"But from a positive perspective, since he is so willing to cooperate with our actions, it probably means... we can look forward to the answer he will give next."

"...!"

Hearing this, Toru Asakura first showed an expression of surprise for a moment, and then when he thought of Kento Watanabe's posture before entering the door, he muttered slightly dissatisfied:

"Even so, but in the final analysis... the reason why he feels that everything is under control is because he looks down on us, right?"

"...Although he doesn't want to admit it, he probably does think so."

"In this case! Then we must let him see how powerful we are!"

Toru Asakura stood up and said in a fighting tone:

"No matter what answer he wants to give us next, we will never be forgiven for looking down on him. Even if he can't come to this episode today, he will definitely do everything he needs to do!"

"........."

Higuchi Enka did not answer.

For her, being able to take a bath with Kento Watanabe is the limit of what she can do at present. As for things beyond that... she plans to leave it all to Toru Asakura for the time being. She only needs to be by the side. Just watch the battle.

only……

"...After seeing that, even a nun would definitely have secular thoughts."

Higuchi Enka scratched her hair with an annoyed look on her face. After fighting fiercely with reason and reserve for more than ten seconds, she let out a long sigh.

"Oh, today is the only day...it's better to be a little more honest with yourself."

Looking at the locker room door in front of them that seemed to lead to the "demon realm", with their own different "determinations", the two girls resolutely took a step forward...

Chapter 77: Time to Counterattack

Regarding Kento Watanabe's series of cooperative and even "positive" behaviors, they were naturally intentional on his part.

Watanabe Kento, who wrapped a towel around his waist, first checked his face in the mirror, and then muttered with a little shame:

"I'm still not used to doing this kind of thing."

However, thinking of the straight-eyed look in the eyes of the two childhood sweethearts just before entering the door, Kento Watanabe inevitably felt a hint of "satisfaction" in his heart.
