"Well, just wait a moment; I'll be ready soon," Ishii said, seemingly ignoring Senju. After a brief moment, she stepped into the bathtub.
"...," Senju observed from the side, realizing that surviving in this apocalyptic world had made him much calmer. The presence of the beauty in front of him was a source of comfort. After contemplating for a while, he also decided to take a bath.
"Chito and Yuuri went to sleep in the newly built hut." As soon as Senju opened his mouth, he felt like there was something wrong with him. Where did the topic go?
(T/L: My goodness, you implying something?)
"Well, they borrowed some quilts from me in the afternoon."
"Quilt? Could it be, but is your quilt enough?"
"That's enough. I don't use the quilt on that bed very often, so I gave it to Chito and Yuuri. There are also some stored quilts in the warehouse that can be used after drying."
"Oh, that's right." Senju was speechless. Even though he had already put all the quilts on them, they still took over the quilts they had been sleeping on these past few days.
"So, you'd better rest with me today," Ishii concluded. Senju realized that instead of being cold outside, it would be better to rest with Ishii and ask some questions.
After Ishii soaked for a while, she left. Of course, nothing happened in the middle.
(T/L: Nooooo~)
After seeing her leaving, Senju also soaked for a while, then tidied the bath, put on his clothes and left.
Back in Ishii's room, she was still holding the phone and looking at it slowly.
Senju also came over to ask for advice. The two of them sat on the bed and learned how to use the phone, which made Ishii want to praise Senju for his diligence and studiousness.
Of course, Senju is not an idiot, but the environment affects a person. Now he has no bad thoughts.
Everyone is a precious treasure in his eyes, and he must not hurt them.
(T/L: That's precious!)
The two of them were half lying on the bed holding their mobile phones, and then gradually collapsed, and finally both of them fell asleep holding their mobile phones.
In the morning, Senju felt a vibration in his arms, and then a piece of music played, giving him a hazy and unreal feeling, as if he was back to his daily life before being transported to this world.
However, Ishii's voice next to him reminded him that this was the alarm clock he had set the previous night.
Sensing Ishii's restlessness beside him, Senju quickly turned off the alarm clock. Ishii calmed down and resumed her sleep.
Senju looked at the six-point prompt on his phone and decided to go outside to clean up.
After going out and seeing the tracked vehicle, Senju forgot whether he had repaired the vehicle or not, so he took out the anvil and topped up its durability. It must be okay this time, Senju thought as he looked at the things on the ground.
Leaving the base through the elevator, Senju noticed it was already morning outside, and the wheat in the field had ripened.
He harvested the wheat, collected soil and water, leaving only the spruce trees standing there. Not far away, there was a helicopter.
Upon his return to the base, the three sleeping individuals had also awakened.
Chito and Yuuri packed their schoolbags and blankets onto the car.
Additionally, some of the tools Senju had placed on the ground while repairing the car were put back inside.
Seeing them packing the car, Senju went over and asked, "Chii-chan, how did you sleep last night? Do you have any problems?"
"Well, there's no problem. It's very warm under the quilt, and there's room to write a diary. The shelf for books is also good, but I don't know what it's like inside when it's cold."
"No problem, you can put up a fire inside to keep warm. Have you put away everything inside now? I want to pack it up."
"Well, everything is packed inside," Senju looked at Yuuri who was giggling there, and then nodded.
Senju then packed up the container house, but this time the lever inside did not pop out, it seemed that it was inside considered as a whole.
Senju glanced at the cabin's name, 'Multi-functional Renovation Cabin,' feeling relieved that it would save effort in the future.
On one side, Ishii held a glass of milk, observing the three individuals packing their belongings.
She transformed the nearby lava into a stove, placing an iron bucket for cooking taro. By the time the three finished packing, the taro inside was also ripe.
"The taro is ready to eat, one for each person," Ishii invited everyone for breakfast. The three gathered around, though Yuuri seemed a little dissatisfied.
"Oh, why is it the same food? Ishii is so stingy."
"It's true, Yuuri becomes shameless when it comes to food," Ishii looked at Yuuri funny, "There will be two of them when you come next time."
"Really?" Yuuri looked excited, "I want three next time."
"Okay, okay, everyone, hurry up and eat. You will be on your way soon."
"Well," the three of them ate the taro in their hands. For some reason, perhaps the impending departure, the once sweet taro tasted somewhat bland.
Nonetheless, they still consumed the warm food attentively.
Soon after, everyone finished their taro. After a brief silence, Chito looked up at Ishii and remarked, "We're really leaving this time. Take good care of yourself here."
"No worries. The base is well-stocked, and you should be cautious outside. If you face any difficulties, feel free to return anytime," Ishii assured them.
"Well, we will be back later, let's go," Senju said before driving the car out of the base, and Senju and the other three followed behind.
After coming outside, Ishii hugged everyone again, and finally told Senju, "Senju, be careful all the way, and protect the two, Chito and Yuuri."
Before Senju could say anything, Yuuri patted her gun and said, "It's okay. I will protect everyone."
"That's right, and I'm not a child either! I've already..." Chito exclaimed from the side, but then witnessed Ishii kissing Senju's face. A sense of unease welled up in her heart.
"W-what a-are y-you doing!?"
Chito's voice also became stammering, but Ishii still looked calm, "This is just a parting etiquette, does Chito want one too?"
"I want one! I want one!" Yuuri rushed over, sticking out her mouth toward Ishii. Startled by her approach, Ishii blocked her mouth and gave her a kiss in the cheek, saying, "This one's for Yuuri."
Then she walked to Chito's side, where Chito's face was a little red, and a little resentful. Ishii came up to her face and kissed her, "This is Chii-chan's, so take care of yourself."
Ishii's actions diluted the sad atmosphere of parting. After the three people sat in the car, they waved to Ishii and started to leave. Ishii also stood there watching the three people leave...

"Hey Senju?"
"Hmm? What is it Yuuri?"
" Can you kiss me as well?"
"..." (Senju) "!!!" (Chito)
"Yuu!"
"Waa! Why are you hitting me Chii-chan!?"
(A small bit I added hehe~)
