Aoto, who was eager to question Toshisuke, couldn't be bothered... No, it wasn't "laziness"; it was more like he temporarily didn't want to exert extra energy paying attention to Toshisuke's current bizarre behavior.
Silently concluding that Toshisuke was the type of person who didn't like to be "honest with others", Aoto strode into the bath, sitting cross-legged not far from Toshisuke, with their backs facing each other.
"Mr. Chokata. I think you should know why I've been bothering you today... How did you talk with your sister?"
Though Toshisuke occasionally appeared silly while doing arithmetic or in certain situations, on the whole, he was a person of normal intelligence.
Aoto thought: Toshisuke must have already guessed the purpose behind his insistence to drag him to the bathhouse for a soak.
Since they both understood, there was no need for pretenses, so Aoto directly went to the point and bluntly stated his intention.
"Ah, hahaha..."
