Suddenly remembering the agreement at the airport this morning, Rin Hoshizora was shocked by himself. Although he could not accept it yet, it was the new rule after all. Umi said with a soft expression and a smile.
"I have to say it again."
"Well, Umi-chan~" Rin Hoshizora replied with a smile, then looked at Honoka Kosaka lying on the bed, "Honoka-chan~"
But Honoka Kosaka didn't respond because she--
"Asleep?!" Umi Sonoda shouted looking at Honoka Kosaka who was asleep in surprise.
As for accommodation, there is no problem. The next more important issue is food.
Of course, a luxurious villa will definitely come with rich space and rich brand tools. The kitchen is half the size of a classroom, with kitchen cabinets, refrigerators, microwaves and ovens placed on the wall. There is a 4 square meter table in the middle of the kitchen, with an iron plate the same size as the table on top, which should be used for cutting vegetables.
At this moment, Maki Nishikino, Minami Kotori, Yazawa Nico and Senba Gari, who just returned, are visiting the kitchen.
"Chef?!" Yazawa Nico shouted in surprise. Before that, when Yazawa Nico and Minami Kotori asked Maki if he knew how to cook, Maki Nishikino denied it very decisively and gave a surprising answer.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's so inhumane..." Senba Gari couldn't help but admire when he opened the refrigerator and looked at the rare but precious ingredients in the refrigerator.
"Is this such a surprising thing?" There was still no expression of wanting to show off. On the contrary, Maki Nishikino was surprised by everyone's surprise.
"Of course I will be surprised." Although Minami Kotori didn't shout out like Yazawa Nico, he still took a deep breath, "There is such a person in the family... Isn't it amazing?" Minami Kotori looked at Yazawa Nico.
"Uh--oh~Maki's family is like this too." Yazawa Nico, who was so impressed just now, now raised his eyebrows with a very calm expression, "Nico's family also has its own chef, so Nico has never cooked..."
"Just make it up." Senba Gari rolled his eyes at Yazawa Nico and said with contempt.
"Hey--Senior Nico is actually like this." Although his expression didn't show it, Minami Kotori was also surprised in his heart.
"Is it Nico-Nii?"
"Eh?" It seems that Minami Kotori doesn't understand what Nico means.
"It's not senior Nico, it's Nico-Nii!" Nico reminded him more seriously, but he couldn't give people the slightest feeling of fear.
In the living room, Eli Ayase and Nozomi Tojo are observing.
There is at least thirty meters from the main entrance to the innermost part of the living room, and the space is very large. There are chandeliers hanging on the roof, and two exposed stairs twist from the innermost stairway to the room on the second floor of the living room. There are wooden tables and sofas in the middle of the living room. Needless to say, they must be of high quality.
Eli Ayase looked around. The spacious living room is indeed a good place to practice. Although there are some furniture blocking it, it shouldn't be a problem to move it out.
"We should be able to practice here~"
"Yes, but it's hard to get out. Wouldn't it be better to practice outside?"
"Although when it comes to the beach, if you are too noisy, it will disturb other people."
Hearing Eli Ayase's words, Nozomi Tojo wondered, "Are you still planning to practice singing?"
"Of course." Eli Ayase replied cheerfully, "There is only less than a month left before LoveLive's qualifying combination is confirmed."
"Very motivated."
Nozomi Tojo was pleased with Eli Ayase's confidence, and then looked at the flowerpot behind him.
"So, why is Hanayo in that corner?"
"Uh-"
Hanayo Koizumi was hiding behind a flower pot by himself, holding a mobile phone in his hand, probably reading some news about idols.
"I always feel that it's too spacious and I can't calm down..." After Hanayo Koizumi finished speaking softly, he covered his mouth with the phone and shyly hid behind the flower pot.
After putting away their luggage and everything, everyone changed into their own clothes.
"By the way, where should I sleep?" When the girls returned to their chosen rooms and changed into their practice clothes, Senba Gari asked Maki Nishikino who had not yet gone up.
After hearing Senba Gari's question, Maki Nishikino pointed to the side and said.
"Oh, you can sleep downstairs. There are still rooms downstairs, but don't try to come upstairs. Even if you are a teacher and have helped me, I will let the police arrest you." As he said that, Maki Nishikino looked at Senba Gari with slightly wary eyes.
"Hey, hey, hey, what's going on in your eyes! If you're afraid of this, don't invite me!" Senba Gari complained with twitching corners of his mouth.
"Well, after all, I still have to thank you, Teacher Senba, for being able to still be at μ's, but please don't be delusional." Maki Nishikino curled his hair with his fingers and walked upstairs to change clothes.
"This is really..." Senba Gari looked upstairs helplessly and said that he was not looking forward to it. That was a lie. He was a man with a very normal sexual orientation.
All nine girls were wearing the casual clothes they usually wear for practice.
"This will be the practice form during the dormitory!" Umi Sonoda shouted seriously, pointing to the practice circle form that he strictly formulated last night.
"Oh~" Nozomi Tojo sighed seriously.
"It's amazing, the schedule is so tight." Minami Kotori was also surprised by this plan.
"You are very attentive. It seems that Umi you must have gone to bed very late last night." Senba Gari looked at the chart in front of him and looked at Umi Sonoda with some sigh.
"This... this is actually nothing..." Umi Sonoda said a little shyly after being praised.
Although everyone knows the purpose of coming to stay together.
Through a good environment, everyone can better practice in the hot summer.
Therefore, if you adapt to different environments, you will naturally have different exercises, and the intensity will also change accordingly.
Although no one would complain about the difficulty of practice, three active girls frowned and felt dissatisfied.
"By the way, where is the sea?" Honoka Kosaka shouted dissatisfied.
"... What's wrong with me?" Umi Sonoda, who felt that Honoka Kosaka was calling him, winked at Honoka Kosaka.
"That's not what I'm talking about, I'm talking about the sea, sea bathing!" Honoka Kosaka pointed to the sea view outside the villa door.
"Oh~" Being reminded like this, Umi Sonoda clasped his hands on his chest, "About that, look here--"
Umi Sonoda pointed to one of the original training items on the disc form and added a "swimming", and it was still a ten-kilometer distance.
"Uh... ten kilometers..."
"Ten kilometers of jogging after that...?"
"Wow..." Regarding the girls who were about to accept Umi Sonoda's devil training plan, Senba Gari just looked at them with pity.
Faced with this unstoppable training intensity and rhythm, Honoka Kosaka and Yazawa Nico looked at the form with twitching faces and asked.
"Recently, the number of exercises to train basic physical strength has been reduced. It's a rare opportunity to spend the night together. I think it's better to do it strictly here."
"Although this is very important... can everyone hold on?" Eli Ayase could only smile bitterly when he saw this form.
"Yeah!" The trio of idiots looked at Eli Ayase with hopeful eyes.
"No problem!" Umi Sonoda looked at everyone with shining eyes, "As long as you have a fiery heart!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, that's good." At this time, Senba Gari looked at the three idiots with sad faces with great interest.
Seeing Umi Sonoda's fighting spirit, the Goreni idiot trio showed expressions of fear.
"It feels like she has gone in a very bad direction... think of some solutions quickly." Yazawa Nico looked at Honoka Kosaka and said.
"Uh, um!" Yazawa Nico reminded him, Honoka Kosaka looked at Rin Hoshizora next to Yazawa Nico, "Rin-chan!"
Just by calling his name, Rin Hoshizora already knew Honoka's plan, and then he would learn a salute from Honoka Kosaka, "I understand, meow!"
Rin Hoshizora ran towards Umi Sonoda, grabbed her hand and ran towards the wall next to her, "Ah! Umi-chan, look over there!"
Rin Hoshizora pointed towards the empty sky.
"Hey? What's wrong?" Umi Sonoda looked in the direction Rin Hoshizora pointed.
Then, Honoka Kosaka's joyful cry came from outside the door, "Now~ come on!"
Then, Yazawa Nico, Minami Kotori and Hanayo Koizumi also followed Honoka Kosaka and ran to the beach. Rin Hoshizora, who had distracted Umi Sonoda's attention, also followed.
"Ah! Wait a minute, hey!" Umi Sonoda, who had come back to his senses, wanted to call out to them, but they ignored Umi Sonoda's call and still cheered and ran forward.
"Well, there's nothing we can do." Eli Ayase, who was standing behind, said.
"Eh? It's okay, Eli-senpai... uh." Because he wasn't used to this rule yet, Umi Sonoda still accidentally called him "senpai".
"I told you not to call me senior, right~" Eli Ayase closed his right eye and raised his index finger as a reminder.
"... I'm sorry." Umi Sonoda shyly covered his mouth with his hands.
"μ's has always practiced intensive club activities. It is also very important for seniors and juniors to play together and bond with each other like this."
"Sometimes you have to know how to balance work and rest. If you push each other step by step, it will have the opposite effect." Senba Gari also agreed with Eli Ayase's words.
Although the main thing is to practice singing and dancing, what Eli Ayase and Senba Gari said is also reasonable. No one is willing to do things in a relaxed environment that they don't like to do in a new environment. And if everything has to be forced, it will bring immeasurable consequences.
Thinking of this, Umi Sonoda couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
"Hey! Umi-chan, Eli-chan!"
Moreover, across the road, Hanayo Koizumi also waved to the two of them and shouted, ignoring the senior's honorific title.
Even the timid Hanayo Koizumi mustered up his courage to break through this barrier.
"Hmm~!" Eli Ayase also waved in the direction of Hanayo and responded, then extended his hand to Umi Sonoda, "Umi, come together!
"Ah... you go and play, I'll go in."
Looking at the figures of Honoka Kosaka and the others on the beach in the distance, Senba Gari was about to turn around and return to the villa.
"Eh? Teacher Senba, won't you go to the beach with us to play?" Nozomi Tojo looked at Senba Gari with some confusion.
"No, as a grown man, I will be laughed at if I hang out with you girls, and you will probably reject me instinctively, so... I will not go with you."
"... Okay, then Teacher Senba, just stay alone."
Nozomi Tojo sounded a little disappointed. After all, the reason why she asked Senba Gari to come with her was because she wanted to get to know this teacher who was one year older than her and full of mystery. She was really curious.
"By the way, little Maki, can I borrow your study room?"
Before leaving, Senba Gari suddenly asked Maki Nishikino that the configuration of this villa was simply too luxurious. Even the books in the study room, especially those about ancient times, were very precious and numerous. This made Senba Gari's old habit suddenly come back, but he still wanted to ask the owner Maki Nishikino.
"Okay."
After getting the reply from Maki Nishikino, Senba Gari returned to the villa happily.
---Transition line--
It's a rare trip. Of course, what everyone wants is to relax rather than practice. Facing such beautiful scenery at the seaside, no one can suppress their excitement.
After adjusting her swimsuit, Yazawa Nico was the first to rush to the beach and wave to everyone behind her.
"Hey! Hurry up!"
Everyone cheered and ran towards the beach, while Umi Sonoda, who was dawdling behind, walked a little shyly, and Eli Ayase quickly pushed behind her.
"Come on, come on~"
Even in shallow water, Nozomi Tojo never forgot to record this happy time with a camera.
The camera was pointed at everyone playing in the water in front. Honoka Kosaka discovered that Nozomi Tojo was secretly filming her behind her. She quickly ran over to stop the filming, but she fell into the water on the uneven sand, which made everyone laugh.
However, Rin Hoshizora, who was still smiling with his mouth open, was hit in the face by a water column (facial cumshot (?ω?)), and then fell on the water. Yazawa Nico quickly looked at the source of the water column, but as soon as he turned his face, he was hit in the face by the water column, and he seemed to have taken a sip of sea water.
The one who shot them in the face was Minami Kotori who was holding a water gun. After firing a few shots, the marksman held his cheek a little shyly.
Compared to everyone playing with each other on the water, Umi Sonoda just stood on the water and watched everyone play.
"Huh?" Umi Sonoda Xi was filming herself with the camera, Umi Sonoda hurriedly hugged her chest and turned her back to Nozomi Tojo.
"Stop... stop shooting, Senior Nozomi..."
"Hmm~?" Even if it was a prank, hope did not forget the previous agreement.
Umi, who knew he was wrong, mustered up the courage to turn around and shout to hope.
"Hope!"
This moment was also recorded on the camera.
On the beach--
Hanayo Koizumi tied her eyes with cloth and held a stick in her hand. In this case, she needed to smash the watermelons randomly placed in front of her. It sounds simple, but it may be a bit difficult to do.
"Come on!" Rin Hoshizora also cheered Hanayo excitedly.
"Very good, very good!" Seeing Hanayo Koizumi slowly approaching the watermelon, Honoka Kosaka also applauded and praised.
However, Yazawa Nico, who was standing next to him, showed a 'sinister' smile.
Hanayo Koizumi was about to walk to the watermelon, and the moment the stick was knocked down, Yazawa Nico immediately moved the watermelon away, and Hanayo's stick fell on the sand.
Yazawa Nico, who was holding the watermelon in his hands, smiled "hum hum", and Hanayo Koizumi felt pity when he found that the watermelon was moved away by Nico.
Eli Ayase was also filming with a camera nearby. Minami Kotori, who was standing next to Eli Ayase, held his face in his hands and said, "Both of them are so cute."
