"Love, couple." The corners of Mizuna Hayato's mouth twitched: "I knew..."
Sure enough, Yamada Takayuki and the others were doing these little tricks, and they turned the agreed-upon celebration dinner into a time for the two of them to be alone.
"Yes." The proprietress has not yet finished her words: "This couple's set meal not only includes this dinner, but also high-end soju."
She lowered her voice for some reason and said, "Private hot springs and rooms are also included~"
Mizuna Hayato was even more speechless. He glanced at Satomi Ishihara who seemed to be still in a daze, nodded reluctantly and said: "Okay, we understand."
"Please take your time and enjoy it." The proprietress cleared the table and left, leaving the two of them alone in the room.
"What did you mean by what you just said?" Ishihara Satomi finally asked.
"Well..." Hayato Minato thought for a while while pouring the wine: "Probably, I don't think you were the real you at those times."
This sounds a bit convoluted, but Mizunami Hayato believes Ishihara Satomi understands what he means.
Just like beauties can vaguely distinguish the meaning in men's eyes when they look at them, Mizuna Hayato can roughly tell whether girls are coveting his face or his body when they approach him. Or something else.
Mizuna Hayato thinks that he is not a Megumi Yanagishita. It is naturally impossible to ignore Satomi Ishihara. At the same time, it is obviously impossible for him to be so good that he would stay away from Satomi Ishihara just after hearing a word from Kyoko Fukada.
The reason why he has not expressed anything about Ishihara Satomi's actions is simply because he feels that when the seemingly passionate Ishihara Satomi is "flirting" with him, there is always a veil in front of him, and there is a sense of alienation. a feeling of.
If you want to find a metaphorical object, it should be the elusive flower of the high mountain.
"What is the real you like? I'm very curious." Mizuno Hayato held his chin: "So I combined the impressions I felt into a sachet. I don't know if there is a little bit of 'bingo!' How do you feel?"
Minato Hayato pinched a small gap with his index finger and thumb, while Ishihara Satomi held the delicate sachet in his hand: "Not at all!"
...
As if to prove what Hayato Minakura said was wrong, Ishihara Satomi got into a fight with him, pouring him wine one glass after another. A romantic couple's set meal was clearly turned into a "wine sharing" set meal for them.
When the third bottle of wine was bottomed, Ishihara Satomi also gradually sat next to him from across from Minato Hayato.
Looking at Ishihara Satomi's increasingly rosy face and listening to her efforts to keep her words coherent, Minato Hayato accepted all her requests and felt that Ishihara Satomi, who was dressed conservatively and freshly today, looked even better than the sexy look in the dress.
"Let's go for a walk!" Ishihara Satomi suddenly said.
"Why do you suddenly want to take a walk?"
"I heard that you are very good at talking to people under the moon!" Ishihara Satomi put her hand on one of Minakami Hayato's shoulders, and her chin rested on her own hand. She breathed warm breath into Minakami Hayato's ear and said : "I want to try to see if it's true."
"Did you read some strange news?" The distance was too close, and Mizuna Hayato didn't dare to turn his head, he just looked at her sideways.
"Let's go!" Ishihara Satomi patted him on the shoulder.
"Okay." Mizuna Hayato agreed.
...
Walking on the stone pavement of the antique hot spring street, the moonlit night was just like when they walked together that night.
The difference was probably that Satomi Ishihara took the initiative to walk in front this time, lowering her head and looking at the gaps between the stone slabs. She carefully stepped on the center of the stone slabs with every step, as if if she stepped on the gap, something terrible would happen.
Hayato Minato was holding Nao Nai behind. This guy had just fallen asleep while they were drinking and eating. Now he was getting a little angry. The way he was running around manically made his atmosphere look like two movies with different styles from Ishihara Satomi. , out of place.
The two of them were silent all the way to the familiar bridge.
This small bridge is very short and not very high. Satomi Ishihara's height can sit comfortably on it, with her back facing the stream that makes a clear sound but cannot see any trace.
"Hmm~ The moonlight tonight is still very beautiful." Ishihara Satomi raised her head and said faintly.
"Yes, really?" Mizuno Hayato also wanted to look up, but Nao Nao seemed to be about to jump into the river, pulling on the dog's leash so hard that he couldn't take care of himself.
Ishihara Rimi turned around, saw this situation, and asked: "What happened to it..."
"Maybe he was angry when he got up." Mizuna Hayato said speechlessly: "This guy has become more and more angry recently."
"Are you not good at it?" Ishihara Satomi opened her hands: "Come, come to sister."
"Don't leave." Mizumi Hayato stopped her, "If you want to hold her, get off the bridge. She's so big and I don't even know who to save if I throw you into the river later."
"?" Ishihara Satomi looked at Mizuna Hayato in shock.
"Just kidding. Of course I will save you." Mizutaka Hayato laughed, looking down at Nao Nao: "Anyway, she can swim..."
"..." Ishihara Satomi thought for a while, silently stood up from the bridge, walked to the public bench on the other side and sat down.
Seeing Nao Nao's well-behaved appearance in Ishihara Satomi's arms, Mizunami Hayato felt that she must have seen too many "good sisters" recently, and she became arrogant because of her favor, so her attitude towards him was not as good as before.
After holding Nao Nao and rubbing her for a long time, Ishihara Satomi remembered the purpose of going out for a walk: "I heard that you and Kyoko-san didn't know each other for a long time?"
"Yes." Mizutaka Hayato nodded: "But it doesn't matter how long it takes. Some people have known each other for decades and are still casual acquaintances. Some people know that they must get along with each other the first time they meet."
"Do you believe this?"
"certainly."
Minato Hayato thought for a while, and instead of talking about his past life experiences, he just said that the Fukada Kyoko and Sakai Izumi he met in this life were all people who quickly built relationships, and even the eldest lady could be counted among them.
"Then I'm the kind of person who can't get to know each other even after being together for a long time~" Satomi Ishihara rubbed Nao Nao's ears and said casually.
"Who let me see something other than the real Ishihara Satomi? Maybe the real Ishihara Satomi is the one I fall in love with at first sight." Mizukami Hayato looked at her.
"The real Ishihara Satomi." Ishihara Satomi repeated, nodded, and fell silent.
After a while, Satomi Ishihara suddenly smiled and raised her chin slightly.
"If..."
"That's what the real Satomi Ishihara said..."
"what would you do?"
