Sakayanagi Arisu turned around, facing away from the still steaming Hot Spring Pool, and looked at Kazehara Tetsu who was closing the door.
The expression on his face became a little subtle, with a hint of a silent evil smile.
"Kazehara-kun should know that there is no Changing Room partition here."
She looked at the unobstructed space and said, "That is to say... if you don't mind, it seems that we are going to change clothes honestly in this room."
This is of course a question knowingly.
The design of Private Hot Spring is originally designed for people in close relationships, so there will naturally be no unnecessary obstruction.
Except for Wicker Basket where clothes are placed, there are no obstacles that can block the view.
Kazehara Tetsu looked at the girl in front of him who remained calm even under such circumstances, without showing the slightest trace of panic.
He unbuttoned the first button of his collar, his movements casual and natural.
"What? Could it be that the famous Classmate Sakayanagi is shy when things happen?"
This is undoubtedly the worst way to provoke a general.
But Sakayanagi Arisu is very fond of this, or in other words, she enjoys the feeling of going back and forth with Kazehara Tetsu.
"Haha..."
She chuckled softly, "Kazehara-kun's provoking method is really cute and clumsy. But, since you said so... let's compare it."
"Let's see... who looks away first."
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her hands and began to untie the ribbon tied to her collar.
No unnecessary nonsense and no flinching.
Kazehara Tetsu was not polite and took off his shirt neatly, revealing his tight upper body.
His muscles are not as exaggerated as bodybuilding, but each muscle is properly covered on the bones, undulating slightly with his movements.
On the other side, Sakayanagi Arisu moves much slower.
As the coat slipped off, the girl's pitifully slender body was gradually revealed in the light.
Her skin is so fair that you can even vaguely see the light blue blood vessels under the skin.
Because of her poor health, she looks thinner than her peers.
But this did not detract from her beauty at all, but instead added a fragile and unique charm.
Kazehara Tetsu did not avoid his gaze. Just as he promised, he enjoyed the scenery in front of him openly and directly.
However, what made him a little regretful was that the defensive measures of "Princess" were quite adequate.
When the coat was taken off, she was not completely naked, but retained the pure white lace underwear.
Immediately afterwards, she took out a special Soaking Skirt from the cabinet on the side.
It was a tube top-style skirt with a simple design. The material was light but opaque, enough to cover key parts.
"It seems that Kazehara-kun is a little disappointed?"
While Sakayanagi Arisu put on Soaking Skirt, he keenly captured the flash of regret in Kazehara Tetsu's eyes.
There was a hint of joking in her tone, "Although it is said that we are being frank, if it is that kind of 'all-seeing'... the time now seems to be a little early."
"Disappointment is out of the question."
Kazehara Tetsu took off his trousers, leaving only a pair of black boxer briefs.
He folded the clothes and put them into the basket with a normal expression, "After all, for works of art, blank space is also an aesthetic."
"You're really good at talking."
Sakayanagi Arisu straightened the skirt and picked up the cane again, "Then, please."
The two of them stepped into the bath one after the other.
The warm Spring Water instantly enveloped the body, seeming to relieve the fatigue.
"Huh..."
Kazehara Tetsu found a comfortable seat and sat down, leaning against the smooth stone wall. The water was up to his chest, and he let out a long sigh of relief.
Sakayanagi Arisu sat opposite him in a slightly shallower position, soaking his legs in the water.
"Hmm... it's really comfortable."
She narrowed her eyes slightly, with a contented look on her face.
"Speaking of it, Kazehara-kun."
"Special Exam these two times, how do you feel?"
Kazehara Tetsu opened his eyes and looked through the mist, landing on the girl's face that was slightly reddened by the heat.
"Feeling? Boring."
"On Uninhabited Island, except for a little more mosquitoes, there is no commendable 'game experience' at all. As for that Favored One Exam..."
"With a puzzle of that level, if we weren't waiting for the Time Window allowed by the rules, the battle would be over in about ten minutes."
"Haha..."
Sakayanagi Arisu covered his lips and chuckled, "Kazehara-kun is as arrogant as ever. However, I don't hate this kind of arrogance."
She leaned forward slightly, and her slender legs under the water swayed slightly, driving the surrounding water flow.
"Although you feel bored, at least judging from the results, isn't Kazehara-kun completed perfectly?"
"Class A plundered a large amount of Points and became a well-deserved winner. Even if it were me, I might not be able to achieve a better result."
"The result is inevitable, the enjoyment of the process is the key."
"So..."
Sakayanagi Arisu changed the subject, "How does it feel to lead the team as the nominal 'leader' this time?"
Kazehara Tetsu looked at her.
Although she was asking about "feelings", that look was clearly asking for another name.
Katsuragi Kouhei.
Class A has long been divided into two factions.
This Exam, because of This Exam, it was actually Kazehara Tetsu who took over the baton from Sakayanagi Arisu.
From Sakayanagi Arisu's point of view, this seems to be an excellent opportunity to clear Katsuragi Faction.
"You want to ask, what do I plan to do with Katsuragi?"
He punctured the window paper directly.
Sakayanagi Arisu didn't deny it, he just tilted his head, and the strand of silver hair that was wet with moisture stuck to his cheek, "That's natural. After all, that stubborn guy is a bit of an eyesore. I don't mind pushing that Bald Head when he is most depressed, okay?"
"No."
Kazehara Tetsu shook his head, "I hope Katsuragi can stay."
"Oh?"
"This is really... a surprising answer. Does Kazehara-kun like the kind of guy who just sticks to the rules?"
"Katsuragi is capable. At least when it comes to class unity issues, he definitely has his own methods."
"And I already talked with him when we were on the island. Although that guy is stubborn, he is not a fool who doesn't know how to adapt. As long as it is for Class A's 'harmonious profit', he is the kind of person who is willing to bow his head."
"Have we talked about it..."
Sakayanagi Arisu murmured to himself thoughtfully, "In other words, you have 'tamed' him?"
"You can't say that. It's still a little bit behind. After all, you have to be completely convinced and you have to show some results."
"You're so greedy, Kazehara-kun."
"Since you don't want to kick him out... then your plan is obvious."
