My love is abyss mode

Chapter 135 Camping at Mount Takao (2)

Two birds darted out from the woods, and with a flapping sound of their wings, a few orange-red leaves slowly drifted down.

Chitose Toyama and Momo Shirakawa faced off stiffly. Amid the faint sound of the comic book being torn, Chitose Toyama glanced at Ryo Hatsushino, who was looking at her, and forcibly suppressed the anger burning in her eyes.

If Hatsushino Ryo were to argue with Shirakawa Momo again after the band is reformed, he would be very upset.

Considering her childhood friend's feelings, Toyama Chitose slowly closed her eyes, leaned back in the folding chair, and said in a self-deprecating tone, "Do whatever you want."

"I have no problem with the rules themselves, but your rules are unreasonable."

Shirakawa Momo had no intention of stopping there, and earnestly explained her thoughts: "Since it's a group activity, the most important thing is the atmosphere, not your bad intentions."

So, you agree?

Chitose Toyama rested her hand on her forehead, adopting a nonchalant attitude: "Who knows if you'll take the opportunity to cheat on me, huh? I'm done for."

"This isn't cheating; I'm just keeping my promise."

Shirakawa Momo glanced back at Kuronuma Kiba, her golden eyes slightly cold, and said in a resolute tone, "This is my principle."

After breaking her principle of not betraying Hatsushino Ryo, she gained a position where she was not afraid of anyone's gossip.

"Just an excuse to cheat."

Chitose Toyama's words reignited the atmosphere that had just eased, and Momo Shirakawa's petite figure exuded an aura as powerful as a blizzard.

These two people can't be together at all; they can start arguing in just a few words.

Kuronuma wanted to take Shirakawa Momo away, but with Hatsushino Ryo sitting next to him, he didn't dare to make any move.

She has emphasized that "Tao is the enemy."

"I don't think that's a good idea."

Shinonome Shionai stood up and faced the two of them, making an "X" shape with her arms in front of her, and said in a serious tone, "Arguing won't solve anything. The most important thing right now is lunch. I don't want to go hungry at all."

"Let's go our own way. I'm going to eat ramen."

Chitose Toyama got up from the recliner, stretched, raised her hands, and glanced at Kiba Kuronuma with her bright purple eyes: "Junior, do you want to come along?"

"Senior Sister Chitose, you can't do that."

Shinkai Shiona ran to her side, spread her arms to block Toyama Chitose's path, and said anxiously, "Since it's a club activity, wouldn't it be better if we all stayed together?"

"." Hatsushiro Ryo nodded in agreement.

For her, even though Shirakawa Momo was a rival in love, the warmth she brought remained unchanged; it was still warmer when everyone was together.

Seeing Shikano Ryo's stance, Toyama Chitose glanced at Shirakawa Momo with a cold face, and finally her gaze fell on Kuronuma Kiba, who was watching the show.

The air suddenly fell silent, and Shinonome Shionai and Hatsushino Ryo also turned their gazes toward him.

Kuronuma Fang spread his hands, looking completely bewildered, not understanding what they meant: "Why are you looking at me?"

"Junior, you promised me you'd take care of Ryo's feelings, right?" Toyama Chitose suddenly smiled, a mischievous glint in her crystal-clear purple eyes.

"Please, Ya!"

Shinonome Shiona clasped her hands together and pleaded with a "I'm going all out" expression: "You can do whatever you want to me afterwards, I just want to keep the wonderful memories of camping."

Hatsushiro Ryo raised her hand and poked his waist, clearly not wanting things to fall apart.

Having inexplicably become a hero who saves the world, Black Swamp Fang's forehead creased with a few black lines. However, if the atmosphere continues like this for the next three days, it would be better to go down the mountain sooner rather than later.

Since Hatsushino Ryo had asked him to do this, as a proper boyfriend, he could only ask Shirakawa Momo and Toyama Chitose to each take a step back and get along peacefully.

This is also to allow her to have normal emotions.

He pulled the metal tab on the can of cola, swallowed a mouthful, and gave Shirakawa Momo a playful look: "Momo, if you don't want to come down the mountain and go home with me right now, you'd better behave yourself."

Upon hearing this, Shirakawa Momo's momentum instantly deflated.

Going home with Kuronuma Kiba means not only is there Hatsushino Ryo, but also Matsuzaka Kanon, who is sure to do something very outrageous.

I just said "keep your promise" in front of them, and I don't want to refuse.

"Scum." Shirakawa Momo's face darkened, and she obediently sat back in the folding chair, continuing to stare at him with disdain.

"Senior, please sit down. We can discuss things properly."

Kuronuma Kiba grasped the hand that Hatsushino Ryo offered, its soft touch making him want to squeeze it: "We have to solve the problem first. I have no objection to restricting funds. Even if prices are higher on the mountain, this money is enough for us to have fun."

As he spoke, he took the remaining money out of his wallet and placed it on the table.

Chitose Toyama sat down politely, unwrapped the remaining manga, and said to Momo Shirakawa, "Make me pay for the manga when we get back."

"can."

Shirakawa Momo nodded in agreement, leaned over to take the remaining funds, and said while counting them, "Regarding the distribution of the remaining funds, each person will receive 1 yen, and the rest will be used for common purposes. If needed, come to me for funds."

After saying that, she looked up and looked around. Seeing that no one had any objections, she continued, "Now let's assign tasks. Ryo can go hunting if she wants. Ya and I will go shopping. We'll have barbecue and bread for lunch. Shionai-chan will book the hot springs. Anyone who doesn't need to do anything else can do whatever they want."

The phrase "useless person" clearly refers to Chitose Toyama.

"You still say you're not trying to cheat on me?" Chitose Toyama asked coldly.

"Then you come with me to buy some, and I'll carry the charcoal for you."

Charcoal isn't heavy, but the process of moving it inevitably involves dust, and this dirty work is no problem to leave to the only boy present.

Boom, boom——

Hatsushiro Ryo tapped the table with her fingers to attract everyone's attention, then conveyed a message with her eyes.

I didn't understand the only thing I didn't understand.

"Then I'm off!" Shinkai Shionai raised her hand high, waved goodbye, and happily left the camp.

"." Hatsushiro Ryo stood up with his compound bow and went straight into the woods to find the wild boar.

"whispering sound."

Shirakawa Momo counted out a few 1 yen bills and handed them to Toyama Chitose, then translated for Kuronuma Kiba: "You and Chitose go shopping, I'll stay at the camp to look after things and tidy up a bit."

"Let's go, junior." Chitose Toyama took the money she handed him and waved to him.

It's clear from Hatsushika Ryo's arrangements that she doesn't take anyone except Shirakawa Momo seriously, even though Toyama Chitose was the first person to declare war on her.

Kuronuma followed Toyama Chitose out of the camp to the shop to buy ingredients and charcoal.

"Senior, do you really have to walk around with a comic book in front of everyone?"

“I’m afraid that if I go back, the comics will become a source of trouble again.”

"If you don't provoke Tao, she probably won't target you."

"Junior, aren't you being a little too biased?"

"Nothing."

The two chatted as they arrived at the commercial area on the mountain. Because there was a campsite, there were many shops selling all kinds of ingredients, including meat, vegetables and fruits, and even sliced ​​watermelons.

Walking into a shop selling various camping supplies, Kuronuma suddenly realized that the campsite had no electricity when he saw the portable gas lamps. Logically, a campsite should have a distribution box for wiring, but he couldn't see any wiring at all.

"Senior, did you do that on purpose, that the campsite didn't have electricity?" Kuronuma asked.

"Ok?"

Chitose Toyama suddenly turned around and looked at him, blinked, and gave an apologetic smile: "I forgot, when you're soaking in the hot spring this afternoon, call someone to take over the line."

"Can I trust you?" Kuronuma frowned helplessly as he saw her bright purple eyes.

He simply couldn't understand Toyama Chitose's thoughts. Perhaps Shirakawa Momo could see through them from subtle clues, but to him, it was completely incomprehensible.

"Two bags of charcoal, and one serving of alcohol for starting the fire."

After speaking to the shop assistant, Chitose Toyama turned to face Kiba Kuronuma, hooked her arm around his neck, and leaned closer: "Junior~ do you really think I'm the kind of bad woman who can't be trusted?"

"It's hard for me to say, I feel like I don't understand you."

"What? Women are inherently unpredictable creatures. Besides, we just don't communicate enough. You didn't even tell me you were going to box, did you?"

Seeing her displeased expression, Kuronuma Kiba pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.

I've learned something; women are incomprehensible creatures.

As for communication, upon closer reflection, the two of them have had absolutely no opportunity or time to meet alone recently, and Kuronuma has not had any extra energy to allocate to her.

He took the charcoal from the shop assistant and moved away from Chitose Toyama to prevent the dust from getting on her clothes: "I'm boxing to make money. I want to buy a house in Tokyo with my own money."

"My only goal, no matter what, is to make you fall in love with me."

Chitose Toyama spoke frankly. After paying the bill, she took the alcohol and walked out of the store. She turned back and gave him a charming smile: "I know you're busy and don't have time for a poor woman like me, so I'll have to find a way to create opportunities myself."

"Is this your reason for following me?"

"There's nothing I can do. Even if I finish the succubus crash course, it's useless if I don't have the chance to use it, right? So, just look forward to this camping trip."

"It's hard to have high hopes," Kuronuma sighed sadly.

He knew that Shinkai Shiona was up to something. With Shirakawa Momo and Hatsushino Ryo being hostile to each other, plus Toyama Chitose stirring up trouble, this camping trip was undoubtedly a test of his scumbag abilities.

"When we had dinner together last time, I was preoccupied with the band, and there's something important I haven't told you yet. Come find me in the tent tonight."

Chitose Toyama pushed open the door of the shop selling ingredients and said with a smile in a matter-of-fact tone, "It's okay if you don't come, but there will be a surprise if you do."

"I also have something to say to my senior."

Looking at her sexy back, Kuronuma decided to speak frankly and communicate properly: "However, I probably won't be able to get away; Ryo is very clingy."

"Don't worry, because the disadvantage is too great, my actions will help you." Toyama Chitose smiled confidently.

She had made many careful arrangements for this camping trip, and it didn't matter if Shirakawa Momo occasionally saw through some of her little tricks.

After all, Shinkai Shionai is very good at causing trouble.

Thinking of this, she asked in a playful tone, her soft voice trailing off, "Junior, all four people on this camping trip really like you. Want to do something exciting?"

"No, I'm afraid I'll owe you a favor," Kuronuma Kiba replied coldly.

Upon hearing this, Toyama Chitose frowned, and after a moment's thought, she immediately understood why he disliked her usual calculating ways.

Let's add it to our conversation tonight.

"Not at all?" Toyama Chitose suppressed her sorrow and instantly smiled.

"A heart as still as water," Kuronuma said coldly, his eyes gleaming with a metallic light, appearing flawless.

It's not that he doesn't want to, but he doesn't dare to be too absurd, otherwise Hatsushiro Ryo might turn evil in the next second.

Kuronuma Kiba can only guarantee his own safety; he can't take care of others, such as Shirakawa Momo, Hatsushika Ryo's number one enemy.

Now that things have come to this, we must also consider Matsusaka Kanon's feelings.

Shirakawa Momo keeps nagging him, and Kuronuma Kiba has accepted the reality that he is a scumbag, but that doesn't mean he can disregard other people's feelings and do whatever he wants without restraint.

"How did you know Shinkai likes me?" he suddenly asked.

"Shionai-chan is the type of person who can't hide her feelings, but she only shares important things with a few people."

Chitose Toyama walked along the refrigerated display case, occasionally picking up vacuum-sealed ingredients and tossing them to the clerk: "She thinks that as long as you like her, you can escape the tragic fate of an unjust son."

"With you all here, and with Kanon, she's already living a better life than many others."

"But she needs security. Does the younger student like her?"

"I find it a bit annoying." Kuronuma Kiba answered truthfully; his first impression of Shinkai Shionai was really bad.

If it weren't for Matsuzaka Kanon's sake and Shinkai Shiona's truly amazing figure, he wouldn't even bother with her.

"Okay, that's all."

Chitose Toyama took out her wallet from her pocket to pay the bill. The price of the ingredients had far exceeded the funds given by Momo Shirakawa, but she paid with her own money without caring: "If we don't go back soon, Momo will be looking for us."

"Have you found out all the information you wanted?" Kuronuma Kiba asked with a speechless smile.

"It seems I didn't make a very good impression on my juniors."

"Actually, it was pretty good at the beginning."

"Did you know that among the 20 superintendents of police in Japan, one is my grandfather's apprentice and six are his junior brothers?"

Chitose Toyama said with a wry smile, her bright purple eyes slightly dimmed: "This kind of family means I'm destined to be unable to be frank. However, I will try to treat you a little differently, if you're not too biased, junior."

Because of her family's close ties with high-ranking officials, and the subtle influence of her environment, she unconsciously developed a way of speaking that "uses favors to blackmail" others, and she was most accustomed to using this method to solve problems.

Kurogane nodded in understanding. His straightforward style, unlike that of Tokyoites who beat around the bush, was also influenced by his father, the priest.

On the way back, he skipped the topic.

"Senior, do you really have a way to stop Liang from clinging to me tonight?"

"Tomorrow night is fine too."

"As expected of you, you cunning senior, like a fox."

"I'll take that as a compliment." Chitose Toyama turned her head to meet Kiba Kuronuma's gaze, a smug smile playing on her lips. Bathed in sunlight, her beautiful face seemed to drift into her eyes like fine snowflakes, evoking the image of a shimmering spring day.

Back at the campsite, the messy table had been cleaned up, and all the supplies were neatly arranged.

Momo Shirakawa was sitting at a wooden table, writing in a notebook with a black pen.

Kuronuma placed the charcoal next to the grill and curiously approached. She immediately closed her notebook, raised her face, and gave him a piercing look: "Go start a fire if you have nothing to do. Stay away from me."

"Junior, come help start the fire, I'll grill the meat." Chitose Toyama bent down, picked up the torn comic book, and put it at the bottom of the grill.

Kuronuma Fang suppressed his curiosity and turned to help her start a fire and grill the meat.

A little while later, Shinkai Shiona, panting in the sunlight, ran back to the campsite with a bright smile on her face: "I booked an open-air hot spring! The most famous Gokurakuyu at the foot of the mountain."

Upon hearing this, Kuronuma Kiba, Toyama Chitose, and Shirakawa Momo were speechless for a moment, exchanging bewildered glances.
