"I'm thirsty, I want a drink..."
Yamada Elf walked up to the vending machine and bought five drinks in one go. Being a little rich lady, she completely didn't care about the price when buying things.
"Ruri-chan, for you."
Elf handed a bottle of peach juice to Kuroneko.
"Thank you, Elf."
Gokou Ruri whispered her thanks.
"I'm the one who should be saying thank you. Thank you very much just now, Ruri-chan." Elf wouldn't be awkward about it; she expressed thanks when she needed to. "It's a good thing everyone was around. If my leg cramped while I was bathing alone at night, I might have just drowned... Here, Sora's drink."
Izumi Sora raised his right hand and gently knocked Elf on the head:
"Don't jinx it."
"It really was super dangerous. When my leg cramped just now, I felt like my whole body was going to break, I couldn't move my body at all..."
While complaining, Elf drank her beverage. Her gaze soon fell on another vending machine:
"Eh, is that [Bleep]?"
"It looks a bit like a massage gun..."
"Pfft—"
Hearing Elf's words, Kuroneko, who was drinking, sprayed a mouthful of her beverage out.
Elf just said that word, right?
She definitely said it!
And with a boy right beside us, how could you have the nerve to say it out loud!
"Ruri-chan, is that little ball a thing you stuff in your mouth?"
Yamada Elf's voice rang out again. She wasn't shy at all, just full of curiosity and a thirst for knowledge:
"I remember it's called... what was it called again?"
Kuroneko: "..."
Don't ask me!
I have absolutely no idea, ahhhhh!
In front of Sora, how could I possibly answer you!
Even if Sora wasn't around, I wouldn't answer such a terrible question!
"I don't know."
Gokou Ruri quickly turned her small face away.
"Eh..." Elf looked over in confusion. "Why did Ruri-chan's face suddenly get super red?"
Kuroneko: "..."
Why is my face red?
Because of your fatal question, of course!
Gokou Ruri felt so ashamed she wanted to dig a hole through the floor with her toes. Truly unable to endure it, she hurriedly pulled Elf to the side:
"Elf, stop talking, let's get out of here."
"Eh, why?"
"No why, just stop talking!"
"..."
Pushed away from the vending machine by Kuroneko, Yamada Elf didn't really mind and continued wandering around the room, soon arriving in front of the bookshelf.
"There are so many manga... 'Night Shift Nurses'?"
"W-What?!"
Hearing the name of the manga, Kuroneko rapidly widened her eyes.
If she were in her catgirl form right now, her cat ears would definitely be standing straight up.
Swiftly turning her head to look at Izumi Sora and seeing him playing on his phone with absolutely no intention of stopping Elf, Kuroneko could only grit her silver teeth and swiftly step forward to stop Elf:
"You can't read that kind of thing!"
"Why not?"
"That's an 18+ work. Wait until you're eighteen, Elf!"
"Okay then..."
Yamada Elf's gaze shifted, and she picked up another manga:
"The name of this manga is so strange, 'Oni'..."
"You definitely can't read that kind of thing either, ahhhhh!"
Gokou Ruri swiftly snatched the manga away and shooed Elf off. She finally breathed a quiet sigh of relief, only to turn and see Izumi Sora looking at her meaningfully.
"Lord Ruri has read 'Night Shift Nurses'?"
Gokou Ruri's small face rapidly turned crimson:
"I have definitely never read it!"
"Then why did you stop Elf from reading it?"
"Eat my silence curse!"
"..."
The items in the vending machine couldn't be played with, the manga couldn't be read, and Elf, with her restless personality, could only continue pacing around.
Unfortunately, the room was only so big, and there was nowhere fun to go.
"I just realized there seem to be no windows in the room. It feels a bit oppressive. Let's watch TV for a bit..."
Yamada Elf casually picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.
Izumi Sora was playing on his phone and didn't pay attention to Elf's actions. But before long, an unspeakable, terrible sound suddenly rang out.
"What's that noise?"
Izumi Sora quickly looked up at the TV and was instantly shocked.
The TV is actually broadcasting something that would never pass censorship?
He remembered now.
The TVs in love hotels should have special settings. Besides being used for ordering, they can also play movies to set the mood.
"Ehhhhh?"
Gokou Ruri widened her eyes. After seeing the terrible images on the TV clearly, her small face instantly flushed red at a speed visible to the naked eye:
"Elf, hurry up and turn off the TV!"
"Ah..."
Yamada Elf snapped back to reality and threw the remote control in her hand as if she had been electrocuted.
The remote control happened to be thrown towards Kuroneko.
Gokou Ruri lightly bit her lower lip with her pearly white teeth, clumsily catching the remote control, and then prepared to turn off the TV.
However, the next second, the terrible sound suddenly became louder, practically deafening.
"I-I accidentally pressed the volume button..."
Gokou Ruri's small face was burning hot, almost ready to drip blood. As a result of not holding it securely, the remote control clattered to the ground.
After frantically bending down to pick up the remote control, Gokou Ruri hurriedly pressed the power button, but the TV had no reaction:
"Sora... the remote control seems to be broken!"
Izumi Sora: "..."
I didn't expect you to also be someone who drops the ball at critical moments!
Meanwhile.
Click.
The bathroom door was opened.
Yanami poked her pretty face out from behind the door, her voice suspicious:
"Sora, what are you guys doing... Ehhhhh? Don't show everyone something so terrible!"
Izumi Sora remained expressionless: "It wasn't me, I didn't touch it."
Immediately jumping to conclusions and assuming the boy turned on the TV, that's textbook sexism!
"H-Hurry up and turn off the TV!"
Yanami's pretty face flushed red. As she spoke, she sneakily peeked at the TV.
You're telling me to turn off the TV, but hurry up and close your eyes, don't peek!
"Sora-kun, hurry up and turn off the TV."
Another small head poked out from behind the bathroom door, it was exactly Angel-sama.
After seeing the terrible content on the TV, Angel-sama's pretty face quickly flushed red, and she swiftly averted her gaze:
"Elf is still a child!"
The Elf you're worried about happens to be the main culprit!
Izumi Sora stepped forward, took the remote control from the burning-faced Kuroneko, and found that it indeed couldn't be used. It must have broken when it fell just now.
"TVs all have physical power buttons..."
Izumi Sora put down the remote control, walked up to the TV, and looked for the power button.
"Sora is a pervert!"
Yamada Elf covered her cheeks with both hands, spreading her fingers apart, and shouted shyly:
"Your face is about to stick to the TV!"
Damn it! You, the main culprit, are the only one who has no right to judge others!
"I'm looking for the power button on the TV..."
Izumi Sora replied while swiftly searching with his eyes.
"Found it."
After confirming an inconspicuous bump on the side of the TV, Izumi Sora decisively pressed it.
Snap.
The terrible, decadent sounds instantly vanished, and his ears finally found peace.
"Phew..."
The girls all breathed a sigh of relief simultaneously.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault."
Yamada Elf lowered her hands, her small face completely red, stammering an apology:
"I was so bored just now, so I wanted to watch a movie for a bit..."
"Did you hear that." Izumi Sora turned to look at Yanami. "It wasn't me who turned on the TV."
"I misunderstood Sora, my mistake."
Yanami playfully stuck out her delicate pink tongue, and her small head quickly shrank back:
"Soaking in the bath, soaking in the bath."
"..."
With Mahiru and 'Inmate Eight' going back to continue soaking, the air outside quickly fell silent.
Yamada Elf's small face was red, and she finally sat down obediently on the edge of the bed.
Kuroneko was even worse off. Right now, her legs were tightly pressed together, her small head lowered. She hid in a corner playing on her phone, clearly too ashamed to even lift her head.
Izumi Sora spoke up to break the silence:
"Ruri."
"Mmm?"
Gokou Ruri's black hair trembled slightly, and she nervously looked up.
Izumi Sora reminded her:
"I remember you guys brought your clothes out earlier. You can put them in the dryer now."
"Phew..."
Hearing this, Gokou Ruri breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stood up:
"I forgot just now... I'll go dry them right away."
With the humming sound of the dryer starting up, the subtle atmosphere in the room was quietly dispelled.
"Um... let's play a game, everyone?"
Yamada Elf coughed lightly twice, taking out her phone, intending to break the terrible atmosphere in the room.
Izumi Sora looked over:
"What game?"
Yamada Elf's voice was crisp:
"It's that really popular 'Escape from Tarkov'. It looks very interesting."
"Log in, log in." Gokou Ruri's eyes quickly brightened, her tone confident. "I'll carry you guys."
Yamada Elf turned her head to look: "Sora, get online and join the team."
"Wait a moment." Izumi Sora took out his phone. "I haven't downloaded the game yet."
A moment later.
The three formed a team and entered the game.
Elf, needless to say, was completely a tool. She just yelled and screamed the whole time, totally useless.
Kuroneko was indeed a gaming expert, leading them to victory all the way.
Izumi Sora, having just started, steadily followed behind picking up loot.
Time quietly slipped away.
The bathroom door silently opened a crack, and Yanami poked her head out, looking around.
"What's wrong, Yanami?"
Seeing Yanami's small movement, Izumi Sora walked over.
"Mahiru and I are done soaking, but we don't have bathrobes." Yanami hid behind the door. Because she had just taken a hot bath, the girl's skin was fair with a rosy tint, possessing a moist luster, looking as if a gentle pinch would squeeze out water. "Sora, see if there are any other pajamas outside."
"Wait a moment."
Izumi Sora quickly searched around.
"I didn't see any pajamas or bathrobes." Izumi Sora returned to the bathroom door to report the situation to Yanami. "There are indeed quite a few clothes in the room, but they're all very special."
The love hotel was originally meant for two people. Now five people had entered at once, so naturally, there weren't enough bathrobes to go around.
Izumi Sora explained in a low voice: "This is a love hotel... You should understand what kind of clothes they are."
"Then aren't those sexy l..."
Halfway through speaking, Yanami swiftly raised her hand to cover her pink lips, blushing and quickly denying it:
"I didn't say anything just now!"
Izumi Sora's tone was faint: "Saying half of it is no different from saying all of it."
"It's completely different."
Yanami gave a light snort, then turned her head to ask Angel-sama for her opinion:
"Mahiru, what do you say?"
Angel-sama naturally heard their conversation earlier. Hearing this, she bit her lower lip slightly:
"Earlier when Elf had a leg cramp, I used a nurse uniform to cover her... Let's just use the nurse uniforms."
Compared to unknown special uniforms, the nurse uniform used to cover Elf earlier seemed relatively decent.
"I'll get them for you."
Izumi Sora's eyes lit up, and he quickly brought over two nurse uniforms.
"Thank you, Sora."
Yanami blushed and softly thanked him. She quickly reached out and took the nurse uniforms, then closed the door with a bang.
"Sora, hurry up and come play the game."
Elf waved and called out.
Izumi Sora walked over and sat down, but unfortunately, his mind was completely off the game.
Play games?
I can't focus on it at all.
Of course, Yanami and Mahiru unlocking the nurse outfits is much more highly anticipated.
After a good while, a soft click finally came from the direction of the bathroom.
Izumi Sora swiftly turned his head to look.
He saw the bathroom door slide open, and a girl with an ahoge, wearing a pink nurse uniform, walked out.
It was exactly Yanami.
Izumi Sora's gaze fell on Yanami, and he quickly realized the nurse uniform wasn't proper at all, but super beautiful.
For example, the skirt was very short, completely unable to cover the girl's snow-white, lustrous legs...
"Eh, is Yanami cosplaying?"
Yamada Elf looked over curiously.
"I am not." Yanami covered her chest with her right hand, her pretty face slightly red, her voice shy. "There were no bathrobes left, so we could only temporarily wear other clothes."
As they spoke, Angel-sama, who had tied her hair into a bun, walked out.
Also wearing a nurse uniform whose length just reached her thighs, Angel-sama's tightly pressed, snow-white, slender legs were blindingly bright under the light, making it impossible to look away.
Shiina Mahiru covered her chest with her right hand and gripped the hem of the nurse uniform with her left, pulling the clothes down. Biting her lower lip, she looked over:
"Sora-kun... did you grab the wrong clothes?"
Izumi Sora was slightly taken aback:
"What do you mean?"
"It's..."
Angel-sama parted her pink lips, a flush of unspeakable embarrassment appearing on her pretty face.
"It means the clothes are very improper."
Yanami complained while enduring her shyness and removing her right hand.
A flash of snow-white holy light instantly met his eyes.
Izumi Sora finally realized that the chest area of the nurse uniform had a heart shape cut out of it...
Full marks!
Must give it full marks!
Izumi Sora only felt his right hand suddenly gain a mind of its own, involuntarily raising his phone...
"Sora-kun, no photos allowed."
Angel-sama tensed her pretty face, glaring affectionately and shyly with her bright eyes.
"My right hand is moving on its own."
Izumi Sora regretfully put his phone away.
"I told you the clothes were very improper, didn't I?"
Yanami's pretty face flushed slightly, and she raised her hand to cover her chest again.
Although it was very embarrassing, Sora was the only boy in the room, so it wasn't a problem.
Anyway, he had already seen everything completely in the bathroom just now...
"When I grabbed the clothes earlier, I indeed didn't look closely." Izumi Sora quickly said. "I remember there are other uniforms in the closet... See if there are any suitable clothes."
Hearing this, Angel-sama and Yanami walked over and opened the closet to check.
A moment later.
The two girls silently closed the closet.
"There isn't a single proper piece of clothing inside... None of them are wearable at all."
Compared to the even worse uniforms in the closet, although the nurse uniform they were wearing was improper, they could only silently accept it.
Yamada Elf raised her right hand, her voice crisp:
"Yanami, Mahiru, how about Kuroneko and I wear the nurse uniforms, and you guys wear the bathrobes?"
Kuroneko: "..."
I didn't agree to that!
I haven't agreed to that!
