"Hot Spring Station", for Hakone, is like the platform at the entrance.
During the peak tourist season in November, the platform is bustling with people, among whom the students from Goda in black uniforms stand out.
"The weather's great today; we can see Mount Fuji!"
"Mount Fuji? Where?"
"We saw it on the way here, even the conductor announced it to passengers over the PA."
"I was asleep."
"No, you were playing games at that time."
"Really? Wasn't I asleep? Why do I feel like I took a nap?"
They paid no mind to the gazes from tourists, chatting excitedly.
"Everyone's here." Xiaoquan Aonai announced loudly, "Today's the group activity day, so nobody's allowed to leave the team on their own, got it?"
"Got it——"
"There'll be time for taking photos during the free activity, but you must stay within the designated area and time."
"Got it——"
"If any unexpected situation arises, group leaders should contact me immediately."
