Chapter 186: Chapter 182: Of course everyone should take a hot spring bath together
"It looks like a lot of changes have been made this time."
Nanaya looked at the bathhouse, which was more spacious than he remembered, and nodded.
The hotel is very old, and the baths are even older than the hotel.
Finally, last year, the owner of Zaosu learned from his mistakes and decided to renovate the entire hotel.
Not only was the main body of the hotel renovated, but the bathhouse was also significantly changed.
The original bathhouse had only one huge bathing pool, with men and women occupying half each and then separated by a large wooden board.
During the renovation, the owner of Zaosu originally planned to directly convert the bathhouse into a large mixed bathing pool, and then open a small bathing pool for men and women on the side through drainage.
As a result, a brand new hot spring was unexpectedly unearthed during construction.
Although the new hot spring cannot be mixed together to form a large bath because the trace elements are completely different from the old hot spring, the new hot spring is surprisingly suitable for making a wine hot spring.
"I never thought there would be a brand new hot spring less than 5 meters away from the old one. If I had known, I should have started construction earlier!"
"Such a rare Wine can definitely be used as a huge selling point! How much money have I missed in the past few years!"
When Boss Zaosu told Nanaya about this, his face was full of regret.
Finally, with the new hot spring, Zaosu, who originally only wanted to make minor repairs to the bathhouse, had to completely redesign the entire bathhouse.
Although there are still 4 baths in the end, 2 small and 2 large, it looks like there is only one more Wine bath.
However, due to the location of the new hot spring, the layout of the entire bathhouse has changed significantly from what Nanaya remembered.
"I wonder what the open-air bath will look like after it's been renovated. I'm looking forward to it."
After washing her body, Nanaya picked up a towel and prepared to go to the open-air bath.
He ignored the small male bathtub in the corner of the bathroom, and quickly opened the glass sliding door of the bathroom, then lifted the curtain and walked outside.
The entire open-air hot spring bathing area came into Nanaya's sight.
"Oh, it looks pretty good."
The scenery in front of him made Nanaya couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
The new bathhouse was much larger than what Nanaya remembered, and it looked to be about half the size of the courtyard of the Ryougi family's old house.
In the middle is a huge bath that looks like it can accommodate thirty people without any problem.
The entire bathing pool is built of rocks into a gourd-like shape. At the position that looks like the mouth of the gourd stands a fish-shaped water supply outlet. The white hot spring water pours into the pool from the outlet of the fish mouth like a waterfall.
A little further away there is a smaller bathhouse with a big sign with the word "Wine" on it, which means that it is the wine spring that the owner of Zaosu is very proud of.
The bathhouse was filled with hot steam, and it looked like a fairyland.
However, the most surprising thing is probably the aroma of wine floating in the air. Although it is only a faint trace, it can make people immediately feel the difference between this bathhouse and other ordinary bathhouses.
"Okay, let me try to see if the pool still tastes the same as it did back then."
Having already washed her body, Nanaya ignored the wine pool that was a feature of the bathhouse and walked straight to the large bath.
"Yohoo~ Still the same as always."
Nanaya first tested the water temperature with his feet and let out a light cry. After making sure that the water temperature was bearable, Nanaya slowly soaked himself into the milky white hot spring starting from his feet.
"Hiss~~~Comfortable!"
The water temperature of the bathtub is a little hotter than the temperature at which Nanaya usually bathes, but this temperature difference is just right for Nanaya.
After all, if it's the same as usual, what's the point of taking a hot spring bath? Of course, the experience should be different from the usual feeling to be called a novel experience.
Nanaya leaned his hands on the protruding rocks beside the bathing pool, stretched his legs, and slowly adjusted himself to the water temperature in the spacious and deserted bathing area.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but Nanaya feels as if his entire body is permeated with the power of the hot spring.
It seemed as if there was a magical power in the hot spring that was affecting him.
"As expected of a hot spring in my hometown, it's no less comfortable than the famous hot springs outside."
Nanaya expressed his own thoughts, completely ignoring the fact that he had never soaked in any other hot springs except this pool.
But it doesn't matter, after all, it's my hometown.
Just based on this point, Nanaya would give this pool an extra 10,000 points.
My hometown is so high!
Nanaya rested his head on the rock, quietly enjoying the large bath that belonged to him alone.
However, this rare tranquility did not last long, and soon cheerful shouts were heard from the women's bathroom.
"Wow! Wow! It's a hot spring! A hot spring!!"
Illya, wrapped in a bath towel, rushed out of the bathroom first.
The little girl ran to the bathtub happily like a wild horse, then she tore off the bath towel and jumped into the pool.
thump!
Crash!
The huge splash of water directly splashed all over Nanaya's face. If it was a diving competition, this would definitely be a score of 0.
"Illya."
Nanaya looked up at the little Loli with a complaining tone and glanced at her.
Well, as expected of an Einzbern, his skin is very white.
As for another thing about mixed bathing that everyone will definitely be very concerned about...
Unfortunately, Illya was wearing a swimsuit.
Just like Uncle Zaosu said before, he is doing legitimate business.
Therefore, this mixed bathing pool will naturally not be filled with unhealthy things like some people with dirty thoughts.
There is a huge notice at the entrance of the bathroom: "Anyone entering the open-air bath must wear a swimsuit."
So, the mixed bathing that the driver mentioned before was nothing special at all. After all, the original pool was a normal mixed bathing pool.
Of course, unless there is only one couple in the entire bath, it becomes a little hard to say what will happen in that case.
Unfortunately, Nanaya didn't think that any of the girls in his group would choose to soak in the pool alone with him.
Of course, Illya was wearing a swimsuit at this time, and it was a one-piece children's swimsuit.
In Nanaya's opinion, the difference between this outfit and the Sukushige is that, apart from the fact that the color is silver-white instead of navy blue, another major difference is that there is no white name tag on the chest.
"Hehe, Oni-chan~"
The little loli swam to Nanaya's side, and she leaned against the pool wall, imitating Nanaya's way, to enjoy the hot spring.
"Miss, you can't run so fast!"
The next person to appear was Sera. She hurriedly walked into the bathhouse and picked up the towel that Illya had thrown aside.
"Come down and take a bath, Sera, it's very comfortable~"
"Okay, I understand."
Sera folded Illya's bath towel and placed it on a relatively flat rock, then she slowly entered the bathtub with a blushing face.
During the whole process, Sera wrapped her own bath towel tightly around her body and stared at Nanaya with a wary look.
This made Nanaya feel a little unhappy.
"Hey, what's with that expression on your face? Don't tell me you're not wearing a swimsuit underneath."
"Of course I did!"
"Then why are you so shy!" Nanaya complained, "Are you afraid that people will see your swimsuit when you go swimming?"
"This matter has nothing to do with you!"
Sera's face turned even redder.
Just when she couldn't help but attack Nanaya, the arrival of other people eased Sera's embarrassment.
"It's pretty good. For a rural area, this kind of arrangement is acceptable."
"Is this the local Japanese hot spring bath? It's very different from the one my sister and I went to last time!"
"Is that the 'Sake Soup'? Elle, should we try it?"
··
Led by Shion, the girls' group made a brilliant appearance with a strong aura.
Although everyone was wrapped in a bath towel, compared to Sera who covered herself tightly, the others wrapped the towel in a very casual way.
Especially Rin, this girl just casually draped the bath towel over her shoulders like a cloak.
Shion and the others were happily communicating with each other while exclaiming in admiration. Perhaps because they were wearing swimsuits, they didn't mind being seen by Nanaya.
For a moment, all kinds of colorful swimsuits almost blinded Nanaya's eyes. Coupled with the girls' plump and slender figures, Nanaya was immediately feasting his eyes.
Then--
Nanaya secretly curled up his legs to avoid being seen by the girls in his embarrassing state.
"Tsk!"
Of course, Sera could not be fooled by Nanaya's actions. Although she had no intention of giving Nanaya ice cream for free, the other party's actions really made her angry.
You didn't react when you saw me, but when other people came in, you backed off. What does this mean? !
"Whoa~~"
Nanaya raised his head 45 degrees to look at the starry sky and whistled.
"Our great director seems to be very sentimental~"
Shion walked up to Nanaya, and when she saw that Nanaya was the only man there, she asked:
"By the way, where are your best friend and your junior fellow apprentice? Why can't I see them?"
"Shiki Matsuno said he was going to take photos of the starry sky, and Ori seemed to have something to do with the teacher. They should be here soon. ... Hey! What kind of swimsuit is that!"
When Nanaya looked up, she found that Shion was wearing a black bikini with purple patterns, and the rope used to fix it was specially wrapped around her chest, as if to deliberately highlight her figure.
Shion squatted down, touched the tip of Nanaya's nose with her hand and asked, "Do you like it? This is a swimsuit that I am very satisfied with."
"It's just so-so."
Nanaya replied insincerely.
"Then say you like it."
Shion was very satisfied with Nanaya's performance. She slid directly from the edge of the pool into the water like a mermaid.
"Where did you get your swimsuits?"
Nanaya didn't remember reminding everyone to bring swimsuits. After all, in his memory, the bathing pools were still separated for men and women.
"Of course it was prepared by the hotel owner. The hotel sells swimsuits specifically for guests. There aren't many styles, but they're good enough."
Shion rolled in the water, then she popped her head out of the water and stretched her body.
"Yeah, bliss, bliss, it's nice to soak in a hot spring like this once in a while."
"Hello..."
"Is there any problem?" Shion turned to look at Nanaya, "This pond is just average. It's still far behind the famous spring in Hakone."
Shion's answer made Nanaya bury half of his face in the water, and he spit out a string of bubbles in frustration.
What I hate most is invisible showing off of wealth.
