I'm writing a diary in Zongman

Yumi Horikoshi is one of my father's college classmates and one of the main members of the class reunion held every five years.

"You remember? You really change a lot when you grow up. You were still a little girl five years ago, but in just five years you've grown into such a beautiful young lady."

Yumi Horikoshi felt that time passed so quickly. In the blink of an eye, her old classmate's daughter had grown into a beautiful woman.

"Aunt Yumi is right. Five years have passed, and she's still the same as she was five years ago."

I felt a little embarrassed when I heard the praise for Mao Lilan. Look at Aunt Yumi. Actually, there is not much difference from five years ago, but you can still see some traces of time from the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes.

Of course, you can see it but you can't say it. Mao Lilan's emotional intelligence is not that low.

"Ah~ Xiaolan has started to talk so well."

It was pleasant to hear, but Yumi Horikoshi still felt very comfortable listening to it. Then she thought of something and asked a question.

"Xiaolan, will you come with Maori to the class reunion this year?"

"Is this the date for the class reunion we agreed on? But I just came from my dad's place and he didn't tell me."

"Ahaha~ It seems Maori is not going to tell you."

Yumi Horikoshi felt that she had guessed what Kogoro Mori was thinking. It was normal that he didn't want to bring his daughter to the class reunion held once every five years.

After taking a look at Xiaolan's appearance, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"This year, our class reunion is this weekend. We chose a time when everyone is on vacation to have a reunion after not seeing each other for a long time."

"The specific location is still in the Benkei Onsen Hotel in Tochigi Prefecture. Xiaolan, if you are interested, you can also come with your boyfriend. If you come over then, you will definitely scare Mori."

Aunt Yumi, you're still playing pranks at your age... Mao Lilan couldn't help but complain in her heart. But when she thought about it carefully, her father hadn't told her about the class reunion, so she could really go and give him a surprise, and it happened to be on the weekend.

And a boyfriend.

When this word was mentioned, Mao Lilan couldn't help but think of someone recently, and her face couldn't help but turn red.

"I'm so shy."

Yumi Horikoshi looked at Xiaolan's slightly flushed face, which was filled with the scent of youth and love, and she instantly understood that this girl already had a boy she liked.

"Time passes really fast."

Yumi Horikoshi once again lamented the passage of time.

The little girl from five years ago already has a boy she likes.

On the other hand, she tasted a bitter taste in her mouth.

But Yumi Horikoshi understood that this was her own problem. If she hadn't refused again and again, things that were originally going well wouldn't have turned out like this.

This class reunion may be the last time we meet. After severing all ties, we will probably just be strangers walking on each other's paths.

Looking at the young and innocent Xiaolan in front of her, Yumi Horikoshi gave her a sincere reminder.

"Xiaolan, if you meet a boy you like, don't hesitate. You must take the initiative to pursue him. If you don't dare to take the initiative to pursue him because of some concerns, you will definitely regret it later. This is a reminder for you as someone who has been through it."

Mao Lilan could feel that Aunt Yumei was reminding her seriously. But it was precisely because she felt Aunt Yumei's seriousness that she felt the fever on her face became even worse.

Aunt Yumi (of Zhao)... I'll think about it carefully."

Yumi Horikoshi nodded with satisfaction after listening to this. The problem with love is that it requires impulse as well as seriousness.

"I won't tell him about Mori. If you're coming this weekend, give him a big surprise. Oh, by the way, there are a lot of hot spring hotels in Tochigi Prefecture, and there are also many open-air baths with mixed bathing. Be careful when choosing a hotel."

Yumi Horikoshi's reminder was very timely, and her words immediately made Ran Mouri's cute face blush.

For her, these topics were undoubtedly too much to handle.

But she still nodded slightly with a blushing face and responded in a low voice.

"I, I understand, Aunt Yumi."

Looking at Xiaolan's appearance, Yumi Horikoshi couldn't help but laugh.

"See you this weekend, Xiaolan."

Chapter 230 It’s Not That I Don’t Like Watching

When she got home, there was still no light at all, but this was something Mao Lilan had already known. Her mother had been following up on a case for a while, and it had recently reached a critical moment, so she would be home late.

It was completely dark outside, and Mao Lilan walked into her room without even turning on the light.

When she came to the bed, she buried her head in her quilt.

"Boom!"

The whole bed made a muffled sound, and it took a while for the room to fall into silence again.

After a while, a ray of light appeared in the dark room, illuminating Mao Lilan's face with a slight blush.

She operated her cell phone, dialed the number, and the call was quickly connected.

"Xiaolan, what's wrong?"

The voice was lukewarm and there was no ups and downs in it, but it could calm people down.

Mao Lilan also prepared herself mentally before she began to speak:

"Lianlian, have you decided on your plans for this weekend?"

"No. Do you have a proper plan?"

"Well... this weekend is a reunion for my dad and some of his former classmates. There are a lot of hot spring hotels over there, and there are festivals and fireworks displays at night. There's been a lot going on around us lately, so I thought we could all go on a hot spring trip this weekend to relax."

"It's a good choice. Everyone's been really on edge lately. After Tsukikage Island, we should relax a bit, and then we went to the private island for some exercise. So, let's go to Tochigi Prefecture for a hot spring trip this month."

Hearing that her proposal was accepted, Mao Lilan felt much more relaxed. She suddenly remembered what Aunt Yumei said about mixed bathing.

"By the way, many hot spring hotels in Tochigi Prefecture have open-air mixed baths. Renren, remember to tell Shinomiya and the others to bring swimsuits."

"Open-air bathing? Mixed bathing? Can't we choose separate bathing?"

"So, didn't you say you should bring your swimsuit?"

Mao Lilan knew that Amamiya would have a hard time accepting this, so she mentioned the swimsuit. Even if it was mixed bathing, as long as they wore swimsuits, it wouldn't be a big problem. If the girls could accept it, Amamiya should be able to accept it too.

"And if Shinomiya-san arranged the trip, he'd definitely book the entire hot spring hotel. If we were on our own, there wouldn't be so much to worry about, right?"

"Besides, even in mixed bathing, people still wear swimsuits. That situation is actually the same as swimming in a swimsuit at the beach. Lianlian can't be so unacceptable even in a swimsuit, right?"

"... Well, not really."

Women's underwear is more private, and some underwear is not waterproof and will become transparent after contact with water. However, swimsuits are different. As long as you don't wear revealing styles, it's not a big problem.

Amamiya Ren can still accept the swimsuit setting. Just like going to the beach and encountering many girls wearing swimsuits, swimsuits are still acceptable.

"Then it's settled. I'll contact Shinomiya-san. I went to Tochigi Prefecture with my father five years ago, so I know a lot about it and can explain it more clearly to Shinomiya-san."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

After hanging up the phone, Mao Lilan finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned over on the bed to lie on her back.

"Lianlian has already spoken, and next is Shinomiya-san's."

"This weekend is a relaxing holiday for everyone. If I'm lucky, I might be able to run into Dad and the others in Tochigi Prefecture."

【I took my boyfriend to give Maori a surprise. 】

Aunt Yumi's suggestion still made Mao Lilan feel shy when she thought about it at this moment.

She didn't deny that she had feelings for Amemiya, but she wasn't dating him yet. If Aunt Yumi suddenly said this, and she really took Amemiya with her and ran into her father and the others, wouldn't Aunt Yumi just treat Amemiya as her boyfriend?

But soon Mao Lilan calmed down.

By then, Aunt Yumi will probably be the only one who thinks so. If that's the case, it won't be a big deal. I've already warned Dad and Edogawa today. They both know Lianlian is dating Sonoko, so they definitely won't think Lianlian and I are dating.

After calming down, Mao Lilan felt that her head was no longer as hot as before.

"In this case, the weekend is reserved for hot spring trips."

"By the way, are the clothes I bought before no longer suitable for me?"

Speaking of hot spring trips, Mao Lilan suddenly thought of a very important issue. Her body has undergone a more comprehensive upgrade and has grown a lot. Perhaps the swimsuit she bought before can no longer be worn.

I immediately got up, turned on the light, drew all the curtains in the room, and began looking for the swimsuit I bought last year in the room.

Then, in the corner of the closet, I found a swimsuit that was left alone and made of very little fabric, which could also be called a bikini.

The style isn't particularly fancy, with a blue base, but there's too little fabric to cover the important areas.

Mao Lilan's face twitched, and there was a hint of heartache in her eyes at this moment.

"I shouldn't have let Sonoko trick me into buying this swimsuit last year. I didn't even go to the beach last year, so I didn't even have a chance to wear it. This year... this year it's not suitable."

Although she said that, Mao Lilan still took off her underwear and put on a swimsuit.

I looked at the almost impossible-to-tie swimsuit straps on my back through a floor-length mirror.

"Ah, what a waste. This swimsuit isn't cheap."

The key is that it's not cheap.

Considering her limited pocket money, Mao Lilan was also feeling a headache. This swimsuit from last year was no longer suitable for her, and she needed to buy a new one before the weekend. Otherwise, she didn't have the courage to enter the mixed bathing room naked.

Of course, there is another reason: the coverage of this swimsuit is still too low.

After hesitating for a moment, Mao Lilan called Amemiya again.

"Lianlian, I want to ask you a question. If we let you choose a swimsuit, would you choose one that flatters your figure or one that's more conservative?"

"Eh?"

Being asked this question suddenly, Amamiya Ren was also stunned. His mind couldn't help but picture the girls around him, all wearing different swimsuits, especially Kaguya and Sonoko. However, the background was very abrupt, on a public beach, which made him raise an eyebrow.

"Well, let's choose something conservative."

Looking at herself in the floor-length mirror, she knew Amemiya would make this choice.

"Is it Lianlian who doesn't like to watch?"

"...Isn't this a bad question to ask?"

"It's not a very personal question. And I'll be wearing it in the mixed bathing area this weekend. I need to ask and understand more before I can buy a swimsuit."

"It's not that I don't like watching..."

Amamiya Ren was a little embarrassed to say this. In fact, he was also a very worldly boy, and it wasn't that he really had no interest in those things. He had only climbed over the wall to take a look in the past, and he really had never seen the real person.

"It's just that if you go to the beach wearing beautiful swimsuits, won't other people see you? So, I think it's better to be conservative."

Standing in front of the floor-length mirror, Ran Mouri stared at herself in the mirror in a daze, then she burst out laughing.

"I understand then. I'll hang up now."

Chapter 231: Does Hayasaka have a way to increase fat locally?

At this moment, Shinomiya Kaguya is eating the simplest sashimi with Hayasaka in the restaurant at home.

The reason why sashimi is said to be the simplest dish is that you only need to consider the thickness of the slices, and the rest depends entirely on the freshness of the ingredients themselves.

Of course, their meal consisted of frozen sea monster meat.

Although it is frozen sea king meat, the fish meat is still fresh, even better than freshly caught seafood.

"Hmm, sea king meat is indeed unusual. The texture is firmer than ordinary fish meat, and the freshness is beyond imagination."

After tasting it, Kaguya Shinomiya couldn't help but praise it.

"Indeed. Not only is the amount of fish meat limited, but the nutrients contained in fish meat are also extraordinary. According to the results of the tests in the Hayasaka family's secret laboratory, fish meat contains unimaginable energy. Even just one kilogram of fish meat is equivalent to the energy of an entire cow."

Listening to Hayasaka's report, Shinomiya Kaguya nodded slightly and wiped her mouth.

"There's no need to continue the research. Some things are not suitable for further study, especially at this stage."

"Don't worry, I've already told Mom."

Hayasaka Ai had already thought of this problem a long time ago, so after completing the test, she immediately stopped the research on sea king meat.

"Send some sea king meat to Aunt Nao and Uncle Masato. Although it won't give them supernatural powers immediately, long-term consumption can enhance their physical fitness."

Shinomiya Kaguya had never thought about what happened to Aunt Nao and Uncle Masato. These two people should be the people closest to her. Her mother died early, and she treated Aunt Nao and Uncle Masato as real relatives.
