Fumino Furuhashi pursed her lips, a dangerous smile curving her eyes: "Nobody likes guys when they're too reserved."

"..."

Hayakawa remained silent for a moment, then said, "Make room for me."

Furuhashi didn't say anything, but silently moved aside to make room for Hayakawa.

This position is between Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata.

Hayakawa felt a slight tremor in her heart, but her body moved into the kotatsu faster than her mind could process it, and a warm feeling immediately enveloped her entire body.

hiss…

This feeling...

Hayakawa gasped, then closed his eyes comfortably.

It's definitely a kind of enjoyment.

How to put it... it felt like being purified, my body was immersed in a warm ocean, my muscles were completely relaxed, my mind also relaxed, and even the fatigue accumulated deep in my spirit and body was relieved.

Chapter 376 The Trip Ends

This is really not good.

Hayakawa felt the warmth surging up from deep within her body and couldn't help but squint her eyes.

I feel like I'm getting a little addicted.

"How was it? Feeling good, huh?"

Fumino Furuhashi's slightly smug voice came from the side: "I told you it wasn't just a feeling of warmth."

"really."

Hayakawa nodded, forced to agree.

However, the more one admits it verbally, the more vigilant one becomes inwardly. While it may be enjoyable to do it occasionally, doing it too often can erode one's will, so caution is necessary.

However, it does have the effect of relieving fatigue. In the future, if you are tired from studying at school, or if you are mentally exhausted because of the antics of people like Furuhashi Fumino Ogata, you can sleep on the kotatsu to relieve fatigue. It does have a functional purpose.

With that in mind, Hayakawa plans to buy a kotatsu online when he gets back.

“It’s not over yet,” Fumino Furuhashi said, putting her hands in her shirt pockets and taking out a few oranges, which she placed on the kotatsu table.

Hayakawa looked over: "Oranges?"

“Yes.” Fumino Furuhashi picked up an orange and peeled it as she explained, “Eating fruit is the best thing to do when sleeping under a kotatsu, and oranges are the best of all.”

"why?"

Hayakawa asked a question instinctively.

Fumino Furuhashi paused in her movements: "Well... I'm not quite sure either."

"Yes, I think that's how it should be,"

Ogata Rizu, who was feeling a little dizzy with her eyes closed, noticed the problem. She quickly thought for a moment and said, "Isn't there a quilt on the kotatsu table? Eating grapes or melons on the kotatsu would easily soil the quilt, and apples and pears are too big to eat. Since they're going into the kotatsu, they're definitely going to sleep, so they can't eat that much. Therefore, large fruits are easy to waste. If we exclude those, then we're left with bananas, oranges, strawberries, and the like."

“Ah, I get it now. Bananas won’t work either,” Fumino Furuhashi seemed to have gotten interested, her eyes lighting up as she said, “Bananas can quickly replenish carbohydrates, making them suitable for eating before exercise, and they also provide a feeling of fullness. But it’s definitely not appropriate for me to eat them when I’m about to go to sleep, so that’s a no-go. And strawberries would also affect the taste if they were placed on a hot kotatsu, since all the moisture would evaporate.”

“Oranges are small and palatable, and with the peel on, they won’t easily stain the bedding. Even if you eat half of it, it won’t go to waste,” Rizu Ogata added. “Moreover, citrus fruits have a rich but not pungent aroma. When you put the peeled orange on the kotatsu table, the aroma is released in the warm environment, which can promote sleep.”

"That's how it is with Erculin Dance and Shirt-Pulling San."

Fumino Furuhashi was overjoyed, as if she had solved a difficult problem. She peeled the orange and handed it to Rizu Ogata: "Rizu-chan, here's an orange for you as a reward."

Rizu Ogata calmly accepted it: "Thank you."

"Wow...you've learned something really obscure! You two are amazing!"

Hayakawa, expressionless and with a very perfunctory tone, offered a couple of compliments before reaching for an orange, only to have it slapped away by Fumino Furuhashi.

"I'll do the digging; one person can do it all."

Fumino Furuhashi picked up an orange and peeled it with her slender fingers, saying, "Just wait and eat it."

"..."

At that moment, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and his heart also had a strange feeling of seeing the light after the clouds had parted.

I remember when I first met Fumino Furuhashi, this was how she treated me.

When eating snacks, she will proactively offer them to herself and Rizu Ogata, and she will also proactively share fruit. Not to mention peeling oranges, she will always take the initiative to do so.

At that time, she was so respectful and cautious towards him, afraid of doing something wrong that would displease her teacher and cause him to be discarded like trash.

Even after she and Ogata moved into her house, they were still terrified and dared not offend her at all. It was as if she "could not say a word or take a step more than necessary." Without a doubt, at that time, she had Kouhashi firmly under her control. Just as a monkey cannot escape the Five Finger Mountain, Kouhashi could not break free from the Emperor's control.

Why did such wonderful days disappear later?

There's no more sharing of snacks; it's become completely dependent on me. Whenever it gets hungry, it immediately reaches out to me. It's never offered to cut fruit for me either; Hayakawa does it all. Its attitude has become increasingly arrogant and domineering, and it's increasingly disregarding me...

There are many similar things.

And now, those days seem to have returned…

"……Um."

Hayakawa recalled the moment his tiger-like eyes filled with tears, reached out and took the orange that Fumino Furuhashi handed him, and responded in a low voice.

Fumino Furuhashi: "???"

Why did you cry while eating an orange?

"Ugh…"

Hayakawa sighed softly, lamenting the vicissitudes of life, and silently popped the orange into his mouth, its sweet and sour taste filling his mouth.

Rizu Ogata ate two oranges, then suddenly lay down and stopped moving. She closed her eyes, and soon her breathing became even.

"Rika falls asleep so quickly."

Fumino Furuhashi glanced at Ogata, who was lying on the ground unconscious, and couldn't help but chuckle, "He must be too tired from being out for so long today."

"Didn't you take a long nap at noon?"

Hayakawa wasn't sleepy at all; he kept eating oranges, and Fumino Furuhashi peeled them off for him one by one.

"There's nothing we can do about it, after all, Ri-chan is just a kid."

Fumino Furuhashi covered her mouth and smiled slightly: "Kids are just sleepy."

"Hmm... if she hears that when she's sober, she'll definitely be angry with you."

Hayakawa said expressionlessly, then ate the last orange: "Aren't you sleepy?"

"Me? I'm not sleepy." Fumino Furuhashi was taken aback, then shook her head after being questioned by the three-fold gaze of the other girl, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm not sleepy, but I'm a little... hungry."

"..."

Hayakawa looked at Furuhashi with disdain: "Didn't you just eat your way through the food streets?"

Fumino Furuhashi said matter-of-factly, "There was nothing I could do. We spent a long time watching the fireworks, and then I didn't eat much before coming back."

"You insisted on taking us to see it, didn't you?" Hayakawa glanced at her and sneered.

Fumino Furuhashi silently turned her head away: "That's a different matter."

The two chatted casually when suddenly Ogata Rizu shifted slightly, turned to the side, reached out and hugged Hayakawa beside her, saying sweetly, "Hug me, Shiro..."

Her posture resembled that of a koala, and her tone was ambiguous yet full of dependence.

Hayakawa froze, as if a shutdown button had been pressed.

Shiro is his name, Hayakawa Shiro.

Fumino Furuhashi, standing next to him, narrowed her eyes slightly and paused briefly before saying in a low voice, "It's so nice. Ri-chan is so attached to you that she even came over to ask for a hug while she was asleep. I've known her for much longer than you have, and I've never been hugged so intimately by her."

Hayakawa's heart raced, and she remained silent, while Fumino Furuhashi watched her dangerously from the side, as if she were about to bite Hayakawa at any moment.

"Humph…"

After a long while, she snorted irritably, "This is boring, let's go to sleep."

"Ah."

Hayakawa didn't nod, but simply responded softly.

The overhead lights were turned off, plunging the room into darkness instantly, with only a faint glimmer of light filtering through the thick curtains.

Hayakawa turned his head and met her bright gaze.

Without saying much, the two gently embraced each other.

"call…"

As they rubbed against each other's ears, Hayakawa heard Furuhashi's soft, rapid breathing, her breath hot and wet against his neck.

"Rika called your name just now..."

Fumino Furuhashi gently nuzzled Hayakawa's shoulder with her chin, biting her pink lips as she slowly said, "Did you hear that?"

"..."

"I remember we said we'd call each other by our first names... why are you doing the same thing again? What's wrong with you...?"

Hayakawa paused briefly, then turned his head to the side.

"I'm a little embarrassed..."

"You're still embarrassed!"

Fumino Furuhashi was furious and tried to bite Hayakawa's neck, but Hayakawa dodged it.

"how about you?"

Hayakawa looked down and met her gaze.

"I…"

The girl awkwardly avoided eye contact, and finally stammered, "Me too."

"……hehe."

"If Rizu had called out, I would have, but since she didn't, I felt too embarrassed to call out..."

Fumino Furuhashi felt both wronged and resentful: "Who knows what's wrong with her?"

Maybe she's waiting for you too.

Hayakawa thought silently, when suddenly a wave of drowsiness washed over him.

It's strange. I slept all afternoon, and according to my usual routine, I shouldn't be sleepy at all, but why... whenever I'm around them, I feel a sense of security, and my body and mind can let down their guard, and I naturally feel tired.

The warmth of the kotatsu enveloped their bodies as the two gently embraced.

"I can come to Hokkaido with you,"

In the darkness, the girl's voice gradually faded: "I'm so happy."

Hayakawa didn't respond, but simply hugged him tighter.

"Good night, Hayakawa."

"Good night…"

The night was silent.

……

Two days later, at Hokkaido Airport.

Three figures carrying large and small bags quickly entered the airport's elevator corridor.

"It's all your fault, Guqiao,"

Hayakawa ran while criticizing Furuhashi: "You had to buy so much stuff."

No wonder he was angry. Of all the local specialties he bought, he carried the most, his body was covered with all sorts of bundles, and he suffered a lot along the way.

"What could I do? It's a rare trip to Hokkaido, I definitely had to buy something to take back with me, otherwise how could I give gifts to my father, Rizu's father, and other friends?"

Fumino Furuhashi was panting heavily, but she still managed to retort to Hayakawa: "Some people have no emotional intelligence and no friends, so of course they don't understand this."

Ogata Rizu quietly said from the side, "Actually, my father doesn't need it, it's fine to give it to me."

The three of them joined the queue and finally decided to check their local specialties in as baggage. They breathed a sigh of relief and soon boarded the plane.
