I endured the humiliation and humiliation while being besieged by the ghost story elder sister.

It was clear that Arisa, Honoka, and Ami all had their eyes on her, hoping she would introduce some local delicacies.

But after waiting for a long time, she still hadn't given any suitable advice, which made people a little impatient.

"How about we walk and look around?"

"That's fine, let's go take a look."

After saying that, the group got up, put on their coats, tidied up their empty drink cans and threw them into the trash can, and then walked onto the path above.

Left or right?

Looking at the endless rows of shops on both sides, Fanxia scratched her head and asked in confusion.

"Splitting into two groups? Arisa and Aunt Ashi, you two go check the right side, and we'll go to the left to see what good food we can find."

As a result, the moment Nozomi finished speaking, Arisa voiced her complaint.

"What?! Mio, are you still angry? Honoka was involved in the idea of ​​making you wear this swimsuit!"

"...I'm biased, so what?!"

Nozomi responded irritably, then turned and walked towards the street on her left without looking back.

Chapter Twelve Sunscreen Cream

"Hiss... I didn't expect Arisa to bite so hard. I'll get my revenge sooner or later..."

As Xi Ling rubbed her arm, she complained in pain, glancing at the teeth mark on her arm every now and then.

"Who told you to be so arrogant, Mio? You had to provoke that guy. Now look what happened, you're suffering the consequences!"

Fanxia, ​​who was walking nearby, said with schadenfreude, recalling the scene just now where Nozomi was tackled to the ground by Arisa and bitten viciously, and she wanted to laugh.

"Do they often act like this, fooling around together?"

After spending just a few days together, Yachi felt that Xiling's friends were far more eccentric than she had imagined.

then.

She turned to the person next to her, Honoka, who had spent the most time with Nozomi in Xijing, for an answer.

"You mean Mio and Arisa... they're often like this, and when they were in Xijing, they were even a bit more outrageous..."

Fanxia still clearly remembered what it looked like when she saw Ximiao take off her clothes and peel off the band-aid on her chest.

Fortunately, perhaps because Arisa has temporarily let him off the hook, the situation has become less bad than before, to the point that she didn't notice this when she was taking a bath with Himeko.

After hearing Fanxia's explanation, a hint of envy appeared in Yasuki's beautiful eyes.

Soon, the three of them started looking around, trying to find a suitable place to have lunch. They needed to eat something to fill their stomachs so they would have the energy to continue playing on the beach in the afternoon.

Meanwhile, Arisa, who had been sent away by Hiyo because of his anger, was walking down the street with her mother, her face drooping.

Because it was midday, no one wanted to stroll around in the blazing sun, so the two of them were the only ones on the street.

"Honestly, that's really rude of you~ Does going shopping with your own mother make you this unhappy?"

As she watched her daughter, Ashi, with her arms crossed, looking at her daughter's reluctant expression, couldn't help but complain.

"If I had to choose, between the sweet and soft Mio and her mother who likes to complain, I would choose Mio."

Arisa responded to her in a rather irritable manner, but her beautiful wine-red eyes were still carefully observing the nearby shops, looking for a place where they could have lunch.

Suddenly, they saw a plump middle-aged woman waving enthusiastically at them from a distance, as if calling them over.

Seeing this, the mother and daughter exchanged a glance, and then walked towards the older woman.

"Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?"

Ya Shi stepped forward and asked, looking at the plump aunt in front of him with some doubt. She looked like a kind and simple-minded person.

The result was that I saw her pointing to the shop sign above.

"Home by the Sea"

"Eh?"

"What, don't you understand? I can tell you two are tourists from out of town. Don't you want to try some Okinawan specialties?"

Immediately afterwards, Arisa took out her phone and made a call to Nozomi and the others.

This time, she decided to trust the plump aunt's cooking skills and hoped she wouldn't disappoint them.

After receiving a call from Arisa, Nozomi and her group rushed to a restaurant called "Sea House".

The air conditioning inside was on full blast, probably because the older woman was sensitive to heat. Even the kitchen had one or two air conditioners, which surprised Ximiao when she saw it.

At one of the dining tables, several people were wearing jackets to cover their swimsuits underneath, in order to avoid any embarrassing situations.

After ordering the food, Xi Ling was bored and played with her flip-flops with her head down, killing time.

"By the way, how did you find this place?"

Also somewhat curious, Yashiro looked around and asked the mother and daughter, Asami and Arisa, who were sitting opposite her.

Arisa shrugged, indicating that she wasn't quite sure either, "I saw this older woman waving at us, so I came over to check it out..."

"...So easygoing?"

"Yeah, I'll just leave it to fate."

Just then, Nozomi also interrupted.

Do any of you know what Okinawa's specialty dishes are?

"Huh? Mio, you didn't know?"

Hearing this, Fanxia, ​​Arisa, and the others were quite surprised and looked at him.

"I don't remember much... and the food I used to eat at home was very simple."

He could only offer this explanation, picked up the menu that had been placed aside, and silently began to look at it again.

a long time.

As the auntie brought dish after dish to the table, the group of people who had been playing on the beach all morning couldn't wait to pick up their chopsticks and start eating.

In no time at all, they finished off those delicious plates of seaside specialties.

Just when Ximiao thought that everything they had ordered had been served, the aunt brought over a large plate of seafood.

"This is?"

"Oh~ this, the signature lemon-baked oysters, extra-large version, specially ordered for you, Mio, try it!"

"?"

Although Hiyo was quite puzzled, looking at Arisa and not quite understanding why she had ordered this for her, she still gave her face and picked up one of the grilled oysters to eat.

When everyone had eaten their fill and were putting their hands on their flat bellies to let out a long sigh of relief, Aunt Ashi called over the older woman from earlier, intending to settle the bill.

"Wait, let me pay for this meal," Ba Zi suddenly said, seemingly wanting to show some hospitality.

"Don't do that~ We've been eating and taking things from your place, and we're even staying there. You've already been nice enough to us~ I'll pay for this meal."

In the end, Sister Ba couldn't persuade Aunt Ya Shi to pay for the meal.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, the group left the restaurant and stood on the street, gazing at the sea not far away.

The sea breeze blowing in my face carried a slightly salty and fishy smell, while the scorching sun made me feel a little uncomfortable.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Xi Ling and her group returned to the beach. They sat down under the parasol, each one of them staring blankly at the waves crashing against the shore, lost in thought.

Just as Hiyo was about to go play in the sand for a while, Arisa grabbed his arm.

"What's wrong?"

He looked at the girl with a hint of doubt, as if asking if something was wrong.

As a result, Arisa took out a brand new, unopened bottle of sunscreen from her backpack and handed it to Himo.

"You know what I mean, Mio~ Helping ladies apply sunscreen is something you boys should do, right?"

"Huh? Can't you let Fanxia help you apply it?"

There were many women present, but she insisted on having me apply sunscreen for her; her motives were definitely not pure!

Having learned her lesson from the swimsuit incident, Nozomi was extremely vigilant, fearing that Arisa and Honoka might team up to dig a hole for her again.

Now he's just staying with Aunt Ashi and Sister Ba, so he doesn't have to worry about anything.

"Honestly, you're so slow at applying sunscreen, are you even a man?"

"..."

After being told that by Arisa, Nozomi immediately deflated, silently took the bottle of sunscreen, opened the cap and poured it into her hand, gesturing for Arisa to lie still.

Then, with practiced ease, he sat on Arisa's lower back and, in front of the others, placed his hand on Arisa's smooth back.

"Ouch~ So cold!"

"Stop arguing... This is what you asked for yourself, Arisa, you have no right to complain about these things."

"Huh? You won't even talk to me anymore?! Mio, I advise you to watch yourself... Huh?!"

Before Arisa could finish speaking, Mio precisely pressed her finger on her ticklish spot, causing Arisa to tremble involuntarily.

Just then, Fanxia and Yashiro, who were chatting happily nearby, also took the opportunity to speak.

"Mio, could you help us apply some sunscreen too?"

"...Aunt Ashi, do you need my help too?" He silently turned his gaze to Aunt Ashi, who was standing to the side without saying a word.

"If you, Nozomi, are willing to help me apply it, I have no objection."

Just like that, Ximiao suddenly had three more customers booking appointments to apply sunscreen, even though she didn't receive any payment whatsoever.

After he helped Arisa apply the sunscreen cream evenly to her back, he turned around and placed his hand on her soft, white thigh.

Upon feeling the warm little hands on her leg, Arisa quickly called out, "Wait! Mio, do we not need to apply it over there?"

"Why aren't you applying it? Are you shy, Arisa? It's not like I haven't touched it before~"
