that touch of blue

Chapter 42

Sanada found the small hotel that he booked two days ago with ease, and the owner greeted him with a smile.

"You guys are here, the rooms are ready, and the backyard is the Sento, do you want some supper?" The amiable boss asked with a smile.

"No need." Sanada shook his head, took his sister's hand and entered the door, Yukimura smiled at the boss.

"Xiaolan, the far left is your room. I live next door to you. After putting away our things, we'll go to the hot tub. We'll wait for you at the door." Sanada took off the erhu hanging from his body and handed it to his sister.

"Yeah." Zhanlan took over the erhu, pushed the door and entered, the room was very simple, with a simple tatami mat and a low table, leaning the erhu gently on the low table, on the tatami mat lay her small travel bag, From the bag, he took out the pale pink yukata that Aunt Noriko happily prepared for her when she knew she was going to wash in the Sento outside.

Open the door, everyone is waiting for her at the door, Sanada in black, Yukimura in purple, Marui in red, Nioh and Kirihara in white, Yagyu and Yanagi in blue, Kuwahara in gray.Sanada watched his sister come out and nodded, Yukimura said with a smile, "Let's go."

Zhan Lan looked at the Sento in the backyard of the hotel. It was very quiet. According to the boss, the other guests had already bathed and returned to their rooms to rest. It seemed that they were the last ones to come back.The walls of the Sento are covered with tiles depicting Mount Fuji in Japan. The hot air from the soup fills every pore of Zhanlan's body. She seems to be able to feel the pores breathing, breathing in the moist air greedily.Take off the bathrobe and put it in the small washbasin, and jump into the water childishly. The water temperature is a bit high, but it is very comfortable.Maybe it was because the diving force was a bit too strong, the water splashed everywhere, and then the water drops fell from mid-air, and Zhan Lan laughed "giggling".

Sanada in the boy's soup next door heard his sister's laughter, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly. After Nio saw it, he said to Yagyu neither loudly nor in a low voice: "It turns out that the vice-minister smiles." To their surprise, , the deputy minister didn't shoot at King Ni with the freezing death light, but only glanced at him, and raised the corners of his lips again, Yukimura patted him on the shoulder understandingly, he also had a younger sister in his family, but he had never heard her sister like that I laughed happily.

Zhanlan looked at the knife scar on his chest, it was ugly, there was such a hideous scar on the originally white and flawless chest, gently stroked it with his hand, the brown scar, the white suture, the wound no longer hurts, after a while The stitches were going to be removed, she didn't want to go back to see her mother with this horrible scar.

I squeezed my calf, walked for a day, and even my best physical strength was worn out. If I didn't rub my calf, I might have cramps in the middle of the night.The water vapor hit the face, making people relax. Once this person relaxed, he didn't pay attention to the soles of his feet. When Zhanlan didn't pay attention, his feet slipped and he fell into the water.Sanada and Yukimura had been paying attention to the movement next door, and after hearing Zhanlan's "ah", they didn't want to continue. They were startled, and hurriedly asked, "Xiaolan (Lanlan), what's wrong?"

Hearing the call, Zhan Lan stood still in the pool, stuck her head out of the water, and coughed a few times: "It's okay, I fell into the water." She shook off the water that got into her ears.

"Are you really okay?" Yukimura asked worriedly.

"It's okay, thank you Yukimura... for your concern." Zhanlan replied from the next door, due to the sound of water and the mist in the sky, Yukimura couldn't hear exactly what Zhanlan called him.

By the time they came out of the soup, it was already an hour later.Zhanlan kicked the wooden clogs and opened the cloth curtain to come out. Her face was steamed red, her long wet hair hung behind her head, and her fair arms were slightly reddish from soaking in hot water. Sanada looked at Zhanlan's face. The back of the bathrobe was already wet with her wet hair, and she frowned in dissatisfaction. Zhan Lan watched her brother frown, which could kill flies, and stuck out her tongue: "I'll go back to the room to wipe my hair first." It's gone." Kicking around and running in wooden clogs, there was no one there.

Liu watched Yukimura's hand on the towel inadvertently retracted, looked in the direction of the girl's departure, and looked at Yukimura thoughtfully again, a trace of loneliness flashed across his handsome face.

Zhanlan combed her half-dry long hair, when the phone rang, it was Atobe.After pressing the call button, the young master's voice came from the opposite side: "Are you back at the hotel?"

"Well." Did he make this call just to ask if she had returned to the hotel?

"Nowadays……"

"Huh?" What is he going to say?

"you……"

"What?" When did his young master speak so coyly?

"Today, you are dressed beautifully." Just say it, although many people have said this sentence today, but he still can't help but want to praise her, sincerely appreciate her.

"Thank you." She has heard this sentence many times today, but for some reason, she feels particularly comfortable hearing it from him.

"Don't wear it tomorrow." Her kimono was too dazzling, not because of the color, but because it was too dazzling on her body. All the men looked at her, which made him very upset.Originally thought that the girl would ask him the reason, but unexpectedly the girl agreed to his suggestion, which made him waste so many brain cells to make up the reason.

"Okay." Although she has the blood of the Yamato nation, she is a traditional Chinese in her bones. Kimonos can only be worn occasionally, just for fun. Even if he doesn't mention it, she will change into her own clothing.

"Then, see you tomorrow, go to bed early." There was really no topic to talk about, so Atobe could only hang up the phone angrily.

"Well, good night, Atobe." Zhan Lan nodded and closed the phone in her hand.Looking at the hung up phone, Zhan Lan shook her head, what happened to her?Why do you feel lost?

Listening to the "beep, beep..." sound on the other end of the phone, Atobe gently closed the phone: Good night, Lanlan.Lying on the luxurious Simmons bed in the villa, Atobe looked at the picture on the phone as the screen. In the picture, the girl was wearing a kimono and standing under the cherry blossom tree with a smile. Although the season of cherry blossoms had passed, he seemed to see the girl There are pink cherry blossoms floating around her, and the cherry blossoms are dancing around her.He couldn't extricate himself, he was deeply immersed in that touch of blue and couldn't extricate himself, and he didn't want to extricate himself.

Osaka in the early morning was bathed in yellow sunlight. Sanada stood at the door of the blue room. He had been knocking for 10 minutes, but no one in the room paid attention to him. Seeing Sanada staring at the door helplessly, Yukimura smiled: "Push the door and go in. She can't afford it anymore. I guess I don't have breakfast." Naturally, he knew his members very well, and the appetite of each of them was indescribable.

Sanada obviously also thought of the mess on the dining table, and turned the doorknob with a dark face, only to see the little girl sleeping with the futon in her arms, her cheeks covered by her black hair, only her nose and mouth were exposed, Sanada screamed for the first time. When the girl woke up, he blushed: "Xiaolan, wake up." He patted the bedding symbolically.

Zhanlan heard someone calling her name in her sleep, opened her eyes slightly to look at it, closed her eyes and continued to sleep, Sanada looked at Zhanlan speechlessly, Yukimura smiled again: "I'll come."

Sanada moved away, only to see Yukimura patted the quilt that Zhanlan was hugging tightly, and pinched her pretty nose: "Sister Lanlan, it's time to get up."

Zhanlan opened her eyes again, but this time they were a little wider than last time. After muttering something, she closed her eyes again. After thinking about it suddenly, she felt something was wrong, so she opened her eyes suddenly, and happened to meet Yukimura's smiling face and brother With the same black face as always, a carp stood up from the bed: "I, get up, get up." He was holding his clothes and was about to find a place to change, but recalled that there was no separate bathroom in his room, staring at them, a Holding the clothes in one hand, he pushed the two of them out with one hand: "I'll come out after changing my clothes."

By the time the main candidates of Lihai University looked at the Minister, Deputy Minister and Zhan Lan, it was already 15 minutes later.Satisfied, Marui looked at Zhanlan who was wearing casual clothes, and shouted joyfully, "Sister Lanlan, come over for breakfast, I've left you some slices of toast."

Nioh and Kirihara laughed shamelessly, and Yagyu held back his smile and said, "It was saved from his teeth."

Um?Zhan Lan looked at some weird scenes, she couldn't tell which places were weird, but she always felt weird: "You?"

"What's the matter?" Renwang smiled ruffiantly.

"You two are weird." Zhanlan pointed to Nioh and Liusheng who were sitting opposite her.

"What's wrong with us?" Liu Sheng raised his glasses.

"I don't know." Zhan Lan shook her head, "I always feel that you are different from usual."

Sanada glared at Nioh and Yagyu: "Yagyu, Nioh, stop playing this trick."

Liu Sheng smiled mischievously, took off his glasses and headgear, revealing his white braids, and unbuttoned his neatly buttoned shirt.Nioh took the glasses and put them on, buttoned them up, took off his headgear, and held his glasses up habitually.Zhan Lan was stunned: "So you two are swapped. No wonder you find it strange."

He took the butter on the table, spread it on the toast, rolled it up, stuffed it into his mouth and took a bite, and then took the milk handed by his brother. There was no sound on the table. It’s such a huge contrast, the boss was stunned for a moment, if those people just now seemed to be released from a starvation prison, but now these three people regard eating as an art, chewing slowly, how elegant they are , is as elegant as he is. Although the expressionless boy is not worth admiring, the purple-haired boy and black-haired girl who ate with him are different, with decent dining etiquette and blue eyes that can be seen occasionally, this It was the first time he had seen such a beautiful scenery since he opened the hotel for so long, and he was like a beautiful couple.
