Kato Yusuke lay back in the bathtub, put a hot towel on his face, and asked lazily:

"Now that you have regained your touch, will you be returning to Tokyo soon?"

No one responded, only the sound of intermittent breathing.

"Yinglili?" He asked with some confusion: "Are you still there?"

"...Well...I'm..."

Yinglili murmured like a mosquito, "Huh...what's the matter?"

"Didn't you hear? I said that now that you have regained your touch, are you about to come back?"

"This...probably isn't enough."

Yinglili gasped slightly and whispered as if she was pinching her throat:

"I just have a little...feeling that I need to do more simulation training. After it stabilizes...I will go back."

"Simulation training?" Kato Yusuke was slightly startled, "What is that?"

"Well……"

"Eiri Riri?"

"That's...a method my mother taught me to stimulate inspiration."

"That's it..."

Kato Yusuke responded casually, soaked the towel with hot water, and slowly wiped the face and neck area, completely emptying his mind.

Whoa~, whoa~

The sound of water flowing continued to echo, accompanied by inaudible rapid breathing.

At a certain moment——

"uh-huh……"

A small scream suddenly sounded in the air, with an indescribable lust, and it floated directly into Kato Yusuke's ears.

"??"

He opened his eyes suddenly, took the hot towel away from his face, listened carefully for a moment, and finally looked at the mobile phone in the corner suspiciously.

"...Yinglili? What are you doing? Was the sound just made by you?"

"Eh? Ah? Well..."

Yinglili adjusted her breath restrainedly and said vaguely:

"No...it's nothing. There are bugs in this room. I was shocked just now, but I'm fine now."

"Is this...?"

Kato Yusuke said doubtfully and asked again:

"But I remember that the night temperature in Nasu Plateau seems to be below 0°C, right? What insects would be active at this time?"

"I, how do I know! It's so dark in the room that I can't see clearly, but it's there anyway!"

"Oh... okay then. You should have brought insect repellent spray, right? You can try spraying some in the room."

"Oh, I see."

Yinglili agreed absentmindedly and fell silent.
