Behind him are rolling mountains, lush green trees, and fresh air,
In front of him is a neat road, endless, with cars coming and going,
In the distance is the blue sea, sparkling, opening up the mind,
"Wow, the sea, it's the sea," Xiao Hina ran happily to the side of the walkway, making bursts of laughter at the sea in the distance.
Sora was afraid that something might happen to her, so she followed.
Going to the beach for vacation, this is the final result of everyone's discussion, although Yuta and Sora both thought it was too wasteful, but Liu Ming directly decided, and it was useless for the two of them to object.
In the end, Liu Ming decided and chose this place now.
Listening to the bursts of insect chirping, smelling the fresh air, and feeling the cool sea breeze,
It was definitely the right choice to come to the beach to play.
He clapped his hands, and after everyone looked over, he softly said, "Don't stop here. Go to our destination first, put away your luggage, and then slowly enjoy yourselves. We'll be here for five days, so there's plenty of time to look at the sea."
Because there were quite a few people, Liu Ming hailed three cars to get everyone to their destination.
'GrandBlue'.
Looking at the familiar building in front of him, Liu Ming couldn't help but feel a wave of nostalgia.
A year ago, he had stayed here for over two months, ostensibly to find inspiration, but in reality, it was just to play.
He led the group towards the shop. After pushing open the door, he froze. He reacted quickly, stepping into the shop and then closing the door behind him to block the view inside.
The few people behind him exchanged strange glances, not understanding what Liu Ming meant.
Hearing the sound, everyone inside the shop also looked over.
Seeing that the newcomer was Liu Ming, the owner, Toshihio Koteigawa, immediately greeted him. "Oh, isn't this Liu Ming? You've come to play again."
Liu Ming nodded at him, then angrily walked towards the naked men, "You bastards, didn't Summer Vacation already start? Why are you still here? Hurry up and put on some clothes, or don't make me cut off what's down there."
Hearing the roar, Shinji Tokita rubbed his bleary eyes. Seeing that it was Liu Ming who was speaking, his eyes lit up. "Yo, isn't this Liu Ming? Come, let's play rock-paper-scissors together."
"First, have a sip of plain water to moisten your throat." Jiro Kotobuki didn't care at all about his naked body. He raised his hand, poured a glass of water, and handed it to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming glanced at him and slowly took it.
However, before Jiro could react, Liu Ming poured the entire glass of water into his mouth.
"Do you think I'd fall for that again? You actually tried to trick me with vodka disguised as plain water." Recalling the embarrassing incident from back then, he felt a surge of anger.
"As expected of a famous writer, your mind is sharp; you can see through things at a glance." Jiro wasn't angry; instead, he gave Liu Ming a thumbs-up.
"Alright, stop messing around. Hurry up and put on your clothes." Liu Ming rubbed his temples, too exhausted to complain.
"What's the big deal? Haven't you gotten used to it yet?" Shinji didn't care, showing no intention of putting on clothes.
"I brought other people here. You'll scare them like this."
"You brought friends to learn freediving?" Shinji's eyes sparkled, and his tone was a little excited.
"They're just elementary and middle school students. If you're not afraid of being arrested for being a pervert to minors, you can go without clothes."
"What's the big deal? If they're not here for freediving, then what are they doing here?" Both of them immediately became dissatisfied.
"I brought them here for a Summer Vacation by the sea. The only person I know here is the shop owner. If not here, then where? Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and put on your clothes, or I'll really open the door."
"Yes, yes, yes." The two reluctantly put on their pants and threw on a small tank top.
Only then did Liu Ming go and open the shop door.
Miyu had been leaning against the door, eavesdropping. When the door suddenly opened, she was startled.
Liu Ming gave her a chop to the head, annoyed.
"Come on in, everyone. We'll be here for the next few days. The shop owner's family is all very nice, so you don't need to worry too much. As for the others, you can just ignore them."
"Hey, that's going too far! You can say 'the others,' but I'm the president of the diving club! Show some respect, alright?" Shinji spoke up repeatedly.
"Heh heh." Liu Ming glanced at him. If there was one person with the most serious problem, it was this president.
A crooked beam makes a crooked house. If he hadn't set the example, would the others have followed suit? They all treated nudity as normal; just thinking about it felt crazy.
"Old man, can you help arrange a few empty rooms? We'll be staying here for five days." Liu Ming walked to the counter and looked at the owner inside.
"There are rooms, yes. How many do you need?" The owner looked at the group, then stopped at Liu Ming.
"Yuta and I will share a room, Tohru and Kanna a room, Megumi and Elma a room, and the three Sora sisters will share a room. Give me four rooms." Liu Ming calculated and gave a number.
"Four rooms? Yes, we have them. Do you still remember the way? The last few rooms at the end of the second floor are all empty. I won't lead you there; you can take them up yourself." The owner thought for a moment and said.
Liu Ming didn't object. He had lived here for over two months before, so as long as no major renovations had been done, he still knew his way around.
