When it was time to have dinner, Morimi, who had had a good sleep, was obviously much more energetic.
When we arrived at the restaurant, we found that the private room for several people had not changed, it was still the same room as last night.
The menu is completely different from yesterday, but the various exquisite dishes are equally delicious, and several people are still very satisfied.
After dinner, the group of people walked out of the hotel together and took a walk on the hot spring street that had quieted down.
With nothing to do, Naruse took out his mobile phone and took a few photos of the street scenes under the lights.
After noticing the camera, Hikaru Takigawa smiled slightly, put his arm around Morimi's shoulders and made a casual V.

"Do you want to get up early tomorrow morning?" she asked, continuing the topic.
"Check out at ten o'clock, just get up before then."
"I want to have hotel breakfast."
"Yeah." Naruse lowered his head and looked at the photo, "If you can get up."
After wandering around twice, a few people returned to the hotel. Naruse was about to experience a massage and rock bath, but only Naoko and Haixing followed.
The latter slept in the car all day, and his neck, thighs, shoulders, and waist were aching, and there was no comfortable place in his body. He was hoping to get some relief through massage.
Lying down on the massage table, Haixing turned to look at the old lady standing next to her.
"Be a little lighter..."
The old man smiled slightly and nodded.
Naruse and Naoko looked at each other and then lay down on the massage bed.
"It might hurt a little at the beginning." Shangzi whispered.
"It's okay, this level of massage..."
Naruse responded, and a pair of palms fell on his back, "Hmm!"
Shangzi couldn't help but smile.
"Are you okay?"
"Not bad!"
He gritted his teeth and held on, but the starfish lying on the other side would be more honest.
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts... It's too hard... Ah, it hurts, it hurts -"
The old man kneaded, pressed, struck, squeezed, and massaged with such skill that Naruse soon ignored the pain.
I pressed like this for nearly half an hour, took a short break for a few minutes, and then started a new round of massage.
After a full body massage from shoulders to back, to waist and arms, to legs and soles of feet, Naruse felt relaxed and exhausted.
"Thank you." He thanked the old lady doing the massage, and the latter just smiled and said you're welcome.
After the massage, Naruse felt comfortable all over and almost felt better. Haixing still recommended him to experience the rock bath here.
"Just lie down, it's very comfortable."
"I know." Naruse smiled, "I'm in Tokyo... Well, let's go and lie down for a while. Can I use my mobile phone in the rock bath here?"
"Yes."
There is only one massage room in the hotel, and the same is true for the rock bathhouse. When the three of them entered, there were already several guests lying in it, but there were still empty seats.
Turning around, I saw Shangzi and Haixing walking in. One or two of the young male guests' eyes lit up.
"..."
Naruse glanced at it, pushed the two people's backs and walked in. He didn't stop until they reached the very end.
The ground is covered with orange-red rock salt blocks, and you can feel the scorching heat before you even lie down.
There are towels spread on the rock salt blocks, one big and one small, and the small one is used as a pillow.
The three of them lay down on the towels.
"A little bit annoying..."
Naruse adjusted his posture and soon felt the heat transmitted through the towel and yukata.
"Just get used to it... I feel like I can lie down forever."
Shangzi lay beside him, and inside was a starfish.
"Yeah."
The three of them lay together, enjoying the fumigation of the rock bath and chatting. It was never boring. Except for checking the time halfway, Naruse never picked up his phone.
"Did Shangzi's parents say when they would come home?"
"It should be the last day of the year."
"Does Shangzi need to prepare things to welcome the New Year?"
"Yes."
"Where's the cleaning?"
Naoko turned to look at him, "Of course it's me... Harumi wants to help?"
"When my house is being cleaned, won't Shangzi help me?"
She laughed.
"Two people move faster."
"But there are two houses..."
"It's okay."
Haixing looked at the two people from the other side and did not participate in their conversation.
Lying and chatting, time flows quietly.
There is a clock hanging on the wall of the rock bathroom, which rings every half hour.
When the three of them came in, the bell just rang once. When the bell rang for the second time, Naruse sat up.
"It's almost done, I'm sweating all over... let's go out."
"Yeah." Shangzi also sat up and turned to look at Haixing, "Haixing...ah."
Naruse also looked over and found that Haixing had his eyes closed and his body was lying in a strange posture.
"Asleep."
"She was so energetic while eating, I thought she wasn't sleepy anymore." Naruse shook his head, "Let's wake her up."
"Starfish..."
Shangzi called softly, and Haixing turned over and frowned again. He seemed to be dissatisfied with the unevenness under his body and continued to turn.
Until he lay down on Shangzi's soft thighs.
Seeing her closing her eyes and continuing to sleep, Naruse knelt down.
"Are you waking her up or hypnotizing her?"
Shangzi looked down at the starfish on his lap and still whispered softly, "I'm really sleepy..."
"We can't sleep here forever." After looking at Haixing twice, Naruse suddenly picked up a small piece of rock salt and gently placed it on her face.
"Well..."
Feeling the heat and heaviness on her face, she immediately frowned and turned her head.
"Chun Hai..." Shang Zi also looked over, feeling helpless.
"Why don't you wake up? Let's just bury her here."
"The people at the hotel will tell you."
"Is this the problem?"
The two of them were not in a hurry to go back. Naruse simply sat down again, picked up smaller rock salt blocks from beside him, and placed them on Starfish's arms and legs.
Shangzi objected, but when he saw that he couldn't find any satisfactory small stones, he took the initiative to help him find them around.
"Suddenly I remembered...Did Haixing return the scarf to Harumi?"
"Of course I did. In such a cold weather, I relied on that scarf to survive."
"Yeah." She smiled and handed over a small piece of rock salt.
Naruse took it and looked at it for a while.
"I'm a little sweaty. I'll rinse off later and soak in the hot spring for a while before going up."
"Hmm."
After being carefully tossed by the two for a long time, Haixing finally woke up.
"Well..."
She moved a little, and the small stones on her legs and arms fell down, which made her wake up faster.
"Hey, what is it..."
She sat up suddenly, looked at the orange-red rock salt blocks on the ground, and then looked blankly at the two people beside her.
Naruse stood up and stretched.
"Get out."
Shangzi smiled at her.
"Haixing fell asleep just now... Do you want to take a bath in the hot springs?"
