After the quintuplets entered the room, they prepared to take a shower first like Shinichi said, then went straight to bed, so they had energy for tomorrow.
"The bathhouse is right behind the cabin, and we'll enter in order..." Ichika flipped through the Forest School introduction flyer, and felt a little regretful.
"It's just a very ordinary big bath, no mixed bath..."
"How could there be? If so, the PTA (Parent-Teacher Association) will come to the house." Nino picked up the bag containing her pajamas, and said, "And now that it's just us and that guy here, do you really want to take a bath with him?"
Hearing this, Miku paused for a moment as she took clothes from the trunk.
"Haha, of course I'm kidding. The ones who dare to go into the bathing pool are usually old women, right?" Ichika smiled and shrugged her shoulders lightly, "Shinichi-kun wouldn't do something embarrassing like that."
Itsuki interrupted: "Despite being wrapped in a towel, I really can't fathom the thoughts of those who dare to stay naked in the same pool with strange men."
Yotsuba smiled and grabbed her arm.
"Anyway, even if there is, we won't really be going to the mixed bath, what do you think?"
Miku stood up at this time, looked at Ichika while holding her clothes, and said softly, "...Let's go, I'm really tired, go to bed after taking a bath."
Neither one objected, and the quintuplets walked out the door together.
Ichika took a few steps to approach Miku, and said in a low voice.
"...Liking him is one thing, I won't do anything before you. Like I said that day, don't worry."
Miku paused for a moment, then continued to move forward.
"Okay, I know."
she hugged the clothes in she arms tighter, and she answered with a complicated mood.
...
When the five of them came out, they happened to see Shinichi who was also holding clothes and closing the door.
Meeting their gazes, Shinichi turned his head as if he had forgotten something, and glanced at the door.
When his face turned back, his expression was the same as when he left earlier.
"When you shower later, remember to check out the girls' bathroom."
Shinichi said something with no beginning or end.
Before the others could react, Itsuki nodded.
"En, thanks for your hard work, I have to check out such a big bath alone."
"...Not hard work."
Shinichi waved his hand, and went to the bath alone first.
Under the night sky twinkling with several stars, his steps seemed a bit hurried, as if he was in a hurry to escape the smiling gazes of the girls behind him.
After some low laughter, they all headed to the baths.
The bathhouse is divided into two sides from the gate. On the door curtain are written two male and female characters, male on the left and female on the right.
The quintuplets took off their clothes in the dressing room, and the five beautiful figures that had long been tired of meeting each other, were instantly exposed to the air with nothing to hide.
Then each took a towel, opened the glass door, and stepped into the remaining steam.
After rinsing off, Yotsuba rushed into the bath, splashing out a large amount of steaming water.
"Number one~ ahaha, so hot! Very comfortable! I don't know how long I've been going to the bathhouse, I really miss it~"
"Well, we haven't been there since the family got better." Her toes touched the surface of the water gently, wanting to test the temperature.
Then a pair of long legs stepped into the water. Nino sat on the edge of the bath, exhaled softly and said.
"Ha... This is also a bath, it feels completely different from the bath at home..."
Miku glanced at Nino who looked very comfortable, after entering the bath, bubbling bubbles on the towel folded into a rectangle.
After rubbing each other's backs, Ichika and Itsuki also entered shortly after, and Ichika even grabbed Nino, who was soaking her feet, angering her for a few moments.
"What are you doing all of a sudden! My body is very sensitive, and it's not like you don't know that it's suddenly uncomfortable to soak in hot water!"
Before Ichika could answer, Miku spoke.
"I don't want to soak in the water washing Nino's feet. Ichika has matured beautifully."
Suddenly praised, Ichika was surprised, then smiled casually.
"Well, I think the same with Miku."
Miku stopped talking.
She closed her eyes and leaned against the wall.
The smile on Ichika's face faded, and looked away.
Unaware of the strangeness between the two, Nino gritted her teeth: "You two..."
She was about to splash water to fight back, but found that the water splashed around her first, splashing her face.
"Who's this!"
Wiping her face in displeasure, Yotsuba had already rushed to Itsuki's side, before she could react, she grabbed her chest and stomach, and comparing them to her, she showed surprise.
"Itsuki... Not only are you fatter, you're even bigger! There is a traitor among us!"
"What are you doing all of a sudden!"
Itsuki's ruddy face, which had been scalded by the hot water, was even more red, even though it was too late, she still hugged her body in defense, and looked at Yotsuba in embarrassment.
"Yotsuba, are you led by Nino too? Too much laughing at my figure!"
"Who spoiled her? I am not extending a wolf claw to you." Nino rolled her eyes, then sighed sadly "Itsuki, you admit it, you have become different from us…
"When we get home, I will publish a statement in the newspapers, telling people all over Japan that from now on, the Nakano family's quintuplets have become a strange combination of quadruplets + meat monster…"
"Please don't publish unexplained information like this! What a combination!" Itsuki shouted angrily, patting the surface of the water with her palm, making splashing sounds, "Besides, my weight is within the normal range, I'm not fat at all, please don't say I'm fat!
"As for breasts, Ichika's breasts are a centimeter bigger than ours, and I just became like her… If you really want to say, Ichika is a traitor who appears first!"
"Eh? I..." Seeing the spearhead suddenly turned towards her, Ichika scratched her cheek and smiled wryly, "Although this is true, it's only one centimeter, so don't worry..."
"We are quintuplets, there are slight differences between each other, which will be very clear to us." For some reason, Nino folded her arms and said proudly.
Ichika gave her an evil look, pinched her fingers together and clawed twice in the air.
"Now the humidity is too heavy, and my eyesight is not very good. My eyes can't see clearly~ Then use your hands to determine the difference between us!"
"Wait a minute, what do you want… ah! Idiot, don't touch it... Don't rub it!"
Nino struggled, and water splashed in all directions.
Not to be outdone, Yotsuba approached with a smile, Itsuki and Miku were immediately engaged by them, so the five of them started fighting happily in the bathing pool, their voices crisp and clear for a few moments.
Just when Nino tried to fight back, tickling Ichika, suddenly——
The sound of the bathtub hitting the ground was extremely loud, resounding in the bath.
The five stopped their movements and looked at each other.
They didn't use the bath, and there were only five people in the entire bath, if anyone else came in, they would know right away.
So...
At the same time, they looked up at the towering walls.
It can be seen that this room must be connected to the next room, so that when the bathtub next door falls, the sound can be heard so clearly here.
And next to it is the men's bath.
Now there is only one person in the men's bath, and that is the Tsundere Chairman they know, Asada Shinichi.
For a moment, the quintuplets fell into silence.
Only Yotsuba opened her mouth hesitantly.
"Asada-san, you there?"
