Do You Even Know There's a Ghost in Your House? You Don't Even Know You're Keeping a Ghost!
Konoha,
Uchiha Gin's House,
"Crimson Hot Spring, Secret Realm Healing, Crimson Spring Mist, Bathed to New Life—Land of Hot Water's national treasure-class intangible cultural heritage hot spring! Gathering the essence of heaven and earth, carrying three hundred years of tradition, its waters shine like rubies and possess miraculous effects such as soothing muscles and activating blood, beauty and youth preservation, and nourishing yin and strengthening yang."
Reclining listlessly on the sofa, Senju Itama stared at the commercial that had played on loop several times. Her delicate brows furrowed sharply.
"Is the owner of this resort really that rich?"
She had finally found some time to watch a melodramatic soap opera, only for the same commercial to keep interrupting it. It was seriously ruining her mood.
"I don't know whether he's rich, but his braised pork belly is pretty good."
Uchiha Gin, who was curled up lifelessly on the Two-seater Sofa, turned his head and glanced at the muscular man in a finely tailored suit on the screen before casually replying.
"Hm? You've been there? When?"
Hearing that, Senju Itama shot upright, narrowed her eyes, and stared hard at him.
Going alone all the way out there to soak in hot springs? Something was definitely fishy!
"Oh, a few months ago, I guess. Your second brother invited me."
Seeing that his careless words were about to bring disaster upon him, Uchiha Gin could not even be bothered to roll his eyes. He simply used Senju Hi Shin as a shield.
"My second brother?"
"That's right. He's been studying Bathing Culture lately and said he wanted to experience the different local customs and traditions everywhere."
Senju Hi Shin had plenty of dirt in Uchiha Gin's hands anyway, so he was not afraid of Senju Itama going to confront him.
*Heh heh heh,
