Chapter 98: Three Wise Monkeys
Still, Ishigami knew nothing about the trouble that would come to him on Monday since, at that moment, he went on a date with Kobachi in Nikko as they had just spent their time in a hotel yesterday.
"Is it okay for you to stay for a little longer?"
"It might be hard for us to go to Nikko again, so I don't mind."
"Yeah, next time, let's go somewhere else again, a unique place."
"Unique place?"
"The one with good food, if possible."
"Let's talk about that later."
"Um."
Still, Kobachi wondered whether Ishigami would consider bringing Tsubame and even Onodera in the future, and then the four of them went on a trip together.
'Have you thought of such a future?'
Kobachi wondered, but when she thought about Ishigami's 19 cm... she felt that anything was possible.
'Moreover, his stamina...'
If he wishes to, it would be possible for him to do it more than ten times, right?
Strangely enough, her face flushed red instead of being angry.
Was she happy because of how amazing Ishigami was?
Or was she just perverted?
Or did he make her crazy for him once again after he slept with her?
Probably the last one, Kobachi thought.
Regardless, as it might take a while for them to visit Nikko again, the two decided to visit some famous places in Nikko, or else their trip would be completed.
"Shrine, huh?"
"You don't like it?"
"I just feel it is the same in any place, though."
Ishigami felt that all the shrines in his eyes were the same, but Kobachi argued, "This is different, okay? This shrine is included in UNESCO! Moreover, it was dedicated to Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa Shogunate!"
"I know..." Ishigami looked at Kobachi strangely and asked, "But I never thought that you would like a shrine." Frankly, he didn't mind visiting the shrine, either, but it was just that Kobachi's legs were far from optimum condition. While they were as smooth and white as ever, he wanted to rub his hands. They hadn't fully recovered, and he was worried about her, considering most shrines were located in a high position, and one needed to climb stairs.
Yet—
"Carry me, okay?"
"..."
Ishigami let out an inwardly helpless sigh and carried her slowly to the shrine, thinking that it might be better for them to visit a different place.
Still, while Ishigami and Kobachi enjoyed their first visit to this famous shrine, Onodera also went out to play with her friends. Yes, unlike Ishigami's, Kobachi's, and many others, she had a lot of friends, and naturally, she often played with them, but then again, after she dated Ishigami, she was too lazy to play with them since she wished to be with Ishigami all the time.
"You have been looking at your smartphone, Onodera."
"Did you miss Ishigami that much?"
"I do..." Onodera let out a helpless sigh, then flushed when she thought about what they did on Friday night. Even now, she could still feel him inside her as her body was fully marked by him. It felt so good, she thought, which was so much different from her first time, or rather, after she fully became a woman, she realized her body had become fit with him, feeling happy to have him inside hers.
"Your expression is too pervy!"
"H-Have you done that, Rei?"
"....."
Onodera was speechless by most of their questions, but she knew that it was normal since, like boys who were curious about the naked body of the female, the girls were also interested in that area.
"It's a secret~!"
Yet, even so, she didn't want to say it since she was afraid that those friends of hers would try to get their hands on Ishigami.
Still, even if Onodera said that there was no doubt those friends of hers were already interested in her boyfriend, which made her cut their relationship if she knew.
Regardless, Onodera had to say that it was hard for her to enjoy herself without Ishigami, and she had already wished to meet him. Staring at her smartphone, she wondered when he would give her a reply, and she hoped for him to go home as soon as possible from his outing with his online game friends, which made her sigh.
"Ah, isn't that Tsubame-senpai?"
"Tsubame-senpai!"
Onodera also turned and saw Tsubame, the beautiful senior who had come to help her boyfriend with his studies. If it was before, she might have gotten jealous of her, thinking Tsubame was suited for him, but now, she no longer feels that way since Ishigami was his.
"Ah, oh, everyone!" Tsubame was surprised, but she quickly put on her perfect smile and then greeted them along with Rei. "Rei-chan is here too? Are you not with Ishigami?" Unlike Kobachi, she didn't try to taunt Onodera by calling Ishigami by his first name, especially with many of Onodera's friends around.
"He went out to play with his online game friends."
As Onodera said so, she also let out a long sigh, but Tsubame only nodded with an unnatural expression. "Oh?"
"What about you, Senpai?"
"I-I am going to shop."
"What are you going to stop?"
"Er..." Tsubame hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she decided to say it since they were all girls anyway. "Underwears."
"....." Everyone.
"Can I follow you, too?" Onodera felt like if she bought better underwear, Ishigami would stick to her all the time instead of going out with his online game friends.
"W-Why not?" Tsubame felt a little awkward, but she nodded. Still, at the same time, she also knew that Ishigami hadn't gone back from his trip with Kobachi to Nikko.
'Ah... it makes me jealous!'
Tsubame, after all, also wanted to go on a trip with Ishigami.
Nevertheless, as it was impossible to do that currently, all the girls, some of them being "women," went to visit the underwear shop to buy a new one.
"Wow, so bold!"
"That's practically string, right?"
"Ah, I want to try it, too!"
Yet, Onodera looked at Tsubame differently since she had never expected this senior, who appeared pure, gentle, and lively, to have such a bold choice in underwear.
However—
'Should I get the same or a bolder one?'
Somehow, she wanted to compete.
Meanwhile, Ishigami knew nothing and just looked around the Nikko Tosho-Gu shrine, the most famous shrine in Nikko, curiously. Fortunately, the temperature was quite cool, and his body was quite strong; he didn't sweat even if he had carried Kobachi to the shrine.
"Look, Yuu. That's the famous monkeys!"
Turning his head, he saw the three monkeys carving one of the shrines.
"They are the the famous "Three Wise Monkeys," right?"
"Yeah."
"Do they have a meaning?"
"Hmm..." Ishigami thought for a moment and said, "I think that it is a reminder for someone for lack of moral responsibility by refusing to acknowledge their mistakes, looking the other way, or feigning ignorance, so that's why those monkeys are either closing their eyes, close its ears, and close its mouth."
"I see..." Kobachi nodded. "So, it's like those scumbags who just run away after they have made their women pregnant, right? They pretend not to see or hear and close their mouth as if nothing has happened."
"...you are not wrong, but why do you make such an example even if there are many examples in this world?"
"I wonder why, too? Can you tell me, Yuu?" Kobachi only smiled as she looked at her boyfriend with a gentle laugh.
"...how about we eat the famous Tochigi beef after this?"
"That's a great idea." Kobachi nodded. "I have heard that there are three legendary restaurants that serve the Tochigi beef here."
"That seems delicious."
Nevertheless, as Ishigami was able to distract Kobachi, he couldn't help but look at the "Three Wise Monkeys" again, which reminded him of what he shouldn't do.
Pretend not to see, not to hear, and refuse to acknowledge everything.
Would Ishigami become such a character?
Ishigami wouldn't, and he would do his best to take care of everything.
Yes, it might be hard, but he wouldn't give up, and frankly, he had never expected his trip to Nikko would give him a new resolve.
Still, even so, this trip on Nikko was far from the end, and Ishigami spent all of his time with Kobachi.
Yet, as he had made his resolve, one girl, who had a screenshot of his photo and cropped his girlfriend's part, also started to have his newfound resolve to make up everything.
