Awakening

Sitting on the beach, feeling the fresh and slightly salty sea breeze, Kazumi’s mind seemed to feel drunk.

“Brother, I think participating in this educational trip is quite good.” Leaning her head on his shoulder, she gently said something.

Lei Yin turned around to glance at her, and then said: “There are a lot of things like this, which looks boring from the outside but when you really into it, you will find that there are a lot of fun things. The so-called investing yourself in life is, perhaps, the meaning of this.”

Stretching out both hands to grasp his arm, Kazumi whispered: “I understand what you mean, I’m going to try.”

Lei Yin picked up a handful of sand from around his foot and then let the sand slowly flew down along his fingers. Looking at the stream of sand that was constantly falling, he mused: “Perhaps the only constant, is this sand.”

Kazumi did not understand what he meant and looked up into his eyes. She found that his eyes have a completely indescribable feeling. It seemed somewhat sad, but also kind of see through everything indifferently.

“Brother, what happened?”

Looking at her face filled with worried expression, Lei Yin smiled, “It’s nothing, just suddenly have some mixed feelings.”

Seeing him returned to normal, Kazumi felt relieved.

“Brother, if you have something in your mind, you can talk to me. For a long time, you have always been taking care of and protecting me, so I really want to help you.”

“Do not worry, it really is nothing.” Lei Yin gently patted her face.

“Good then.” Once again she put her head on his shoulder.

Lei Yin pulled out the cell phone from his pocket to look at the time, and then said: “Let’s go back to the Hotel, I fear if the kid wakes up and does not see me, she would be afraid.”

Kazumi nodded her head, and then all of a sudden laughed, “Sometimes I really envy her. If Rumi is here with us and see that you are so good to Amy, she would be jealous.”

Lei Yin suddenly remembered that a few days ago, Naoko also said something similar to that.

When they walked back, Lei Yin saw Takeda and Take Asasei in front of them.

When Takeda saw them, he immediately ran over, “Masashi, where have you been? [translated by subudai11.com] We’ve been looking everywhere for you.”

“Just strolling on the beach, but now ready to go back.”

At this time, Take Asasei also ran toward them, “Kazumi, you are too much, why don’t you tell me when you walk away?” action

Kazumi smiled, “Seeing you so happy talking to Takeda, I did not have the heart to disturb you.”

“What a joke, I don’t have any fun talking with him.” She said, turned around, and gave Takeda a stern glare. But she found that the guy did not even hear what she said, his eyes were unblinking looking at somewhere else.

She followed his gaze and found out that he was staring at Kazumi who, for whatever reason, did not realize that her skirt was rolled up, showing her slender legs.

“Dead pervert, what are you looking at?” Take Asasei cried out in a loud voice.

Being called out by her, Takeda immediately reacted, and awkwardly turned away. He also did not know why would he stare at Kazumi’s thighs.

“Kazumi, I am telling you, this pervert was just looking at your legs.” Take Asasei immediately complained to Kazumi.

Takeda hastily explained, “Don’t listen to her nonsense, I did not.”

Kazumi patted Take Asasei, “Do not talk nonsense, let us go back.” She said while straightened down her rolling up skirt.

“I am telling the truth, this guy was really looking at you.” Take Asasei whispered to her.

Takeda stood at the back watching Take Asasei talked to Kazumi, and suddenly found out that her figure was actually very good, but because she rarely wore dresses, it was previously covered. Thinking about her pair of beautiful slender white legs that he saw just a moment ago, he felt his heart beating hard.

Back at the Hotel room, Lei Yin was relieved to see Amy still asleep.

Later after dinner in the Hotel, besides the missing Yoshikawa, the idle Lei Yin and Takeda came out of their room to play cards and watch TV with Kazumi and Take Asasei.

By nine o’clock in the evening, Take Asasei who lost the most proposed to take a dip in Onsen, the several other people did oppose to that.

At their Hotel, there was a very large open-air Onsen.

This open-air Onsen was built on the halfway up the waterfall with excellent view. There were no barriers on both sides of the Onsen, just some tall flowers and plants as a natural screen to block the line of sight. Therefore, this Onsen was one of the few who allowed the guests to wear swimwear into the Onsen. (Almost all Japanese Onsen request their guests to be nude)

Moreover, this Onsen was a mixed bath, with female bath area in the East and male bath area in the West. There was only a large piece of wood in the middle which acted as a barrier.

When Lei Yin and Takeda came into the men’s bath area, there were already a lot of male students there. Among them, many crowded in front of that piece of wood swimming around and sometimes, every now and then, looked past toward the women’s bath area.

“Yoshikawa, why are you here? When did you come?” Takeda found that his buddies were among them.

“I just come from window shopping with Haruko,” Yoshikawa answered.

“You mean, Narimura Haruko is soaking on the opposite side of the Onsen?” Takeda immediately reacted.

“So what? Stop thinking about it, she is far away from here and the light is insufficient, so there is simply nothing to see. You see those guys who are still trying to see over there? They are all a bunch of idiots.” Yoshikawa sneered.

Takeda suddenly laughed, “Needless to say, you must have done the same thing, otherwise, how can you be so clear about this thing?”

“Too lazy to talk to you.” Yoshikawa left him to swim toward Lei Yin.

“Hey, Masashi, can I consult you with something?”

Seeing his malicious smile, Lei Yin squinted his eyes and said: “Tell me about it.”

“Don’t you feel that soaking in the Onsen is very boring? Why don’t we find something entertaining?”

“What entertainment?” Takeda was also interested and came over.

Yoshikawa lowered his voice to a whisper.

After listening to his proposal, Lei Yin could not help but smile, “After all is said and done, you want us to help you get rid of a competitor.”

“In any case, you also have some beef with him, just consider this as settling an account.” Even though his hidden intention was pried open, Yoshikawa still carelessly said.

Lei Yin though for a moment, “Very well, I have nothing to do anyway.”

Seeing Lei Yin agreed, Takeda who always liked to mess around, of course, gave his agreement.

Half an hour later, while other people continued to soak in the Onsen, from the female bath area on the opposite side came the sound of a heavy object falling into the water.

Immediately after that came the women’s endless panic scream.

“Ah, how could there be a man here?”

“Pervert!”

“Okada, how could it be you? What are you doing here?” It was a full of anger female voice.

“I, I was blindfolded by three men and thrown here.”

“Humph, you need to find better excuses. Quickly get the hell out of here.”

“Haruko, please let me explain....”

“Get out!”

A male student recognized Narimura Haruko’s voice. This discovery made them greatly excited and immediately stood up.

When the crowd was still talking about that controversy, three young men quietly went back to the male bath area.

“Such a good fun.” Takeda covered his mouth hard not to burst out laughing.

Yoshikawa slapped Lei Yin on the shoulder and said: “Finally that competitor is gone now, thank you.”

Lei Yin glanced at him, “It’s useless to say ‘thank you,’ just buy me a meal tomorrow.”

“No problem.”
