Tokyo Girlfriend Guide

Chapter 855 Under Mount Fuji

The way down the mountain is much easier to walk, and the Izusan Shrine is located at a high point, from which you can overlook most of Atami City.

There are lush trees on both sides of the high stone steps, and when you walk down a little bit you will reach the houses. This path almost divides the entire residential area into two.

Walk to an open area, look at the various single-family houses below, and the cool sea breeze blowing from the azure sea in the distance not only dispels the dryness on your body, but also makes your mind open and make you feel relaxed and happy.

After descending the mountain, the group returned to Sakurano to pick up Momotaro and took a short rest, showering and changing clothes. Although there was really no respect for the gods, it was a personal quality education not to bring a dog to such a solemn place.

The hostess of the hotel presented carefully prepared souvenirs, and everyone had a share, and there were even extras. At the end, she earnestly said that if Mr. Hojo liked it after using it, just write to her, and she would immediately send someone to drive it to Tokyo.

It was not until the bus to Ruyiliao drove off the asphalt road in front of Sakurananiwa-so and at the end of the bend that Hojo Kyosuke looked back and saw that the beautiful female general and four employees were still bowing at the door.

After fastening his seat belt, he opened the gift from the female general in his arms and saw two bags of hot spring bath salts made by the hotel itself, which were very delicately packaged. In addition, there was a dictionary-sized wooden food box with six small and exquisite Japanese confectionery inside.

Next to it was a small card with beautiful handwriting, written with a brush. Most of the text was about how Hojo-sensei was indeed a rare talent, a handsome man and a talented person, and how happy it was to be with Hojo-sensei.

Although Hojo Kyosuke might have just moved in when she wrote the card, the general already had a sense of sadness for the separation between the lines, and her writing was quite good. No wonder people say that she treated the guests like family.

Someone secretly felt sad that he didn't travel back to a good time. If it were a few years earlier, the female general might have brought her daughter out to entertain him.

Of course, he only dared to think about this in his heart... No wonder! This is all useless conscience thinking nonsense. How could Mr. Hojo, who is full of beautiful girls, have such messy thoughts? It's simply unreasonable!

The group, no longer attached to Atami, headed for Lake Kawaguchi.

In the car, Yukinoshita Yukino had fallen asleep with an eye mask on, and even made a small snorting sound because she was too tired, which was very cute.

Hojo Kyosuke guessed that this guy might be continuing to climb the mountain in his dream. After all, she was the only one who performed so poorly when climbing the shrine road. This was simply unforgivable for Yukino, who was extremely competitive. She might have fainted from exhaustion or anger.

Many other people were also resting their eyes. It takes about two hours to get from Atami City to Fujiyoshida City, and sleeping before entering the Mount Fuji area is the best option.

Hojo Kyosuke originally wanted to persuade his father-in-law Miyamizu Toshiki to drive, but the imperial envoy said that his hands were itching after not driving for a day, and he must drive enough today.

The accommodation in Lake Kawaguchi was sponsored by the parents of the two children, Xiangye and Sachiko. It is a holiday villa with a great view located on the north shore of Lake Kawaguchi.

Drive along the road towards Yamanashi Prefecture. If the road from Tokyo to Atami is a sea view, then the road from Atami to Fujiyoshida City is a view of Mount Fuji.

Even before leaving Shizuoka Prefecture, you can already see the snow-capped top of Mount Fuji. In fact, Shizuoka Prefecture also has many tourist attractions famous for viewing Mount Fuji.

After all, it is an island country. Although it is mountainous, the overall terrain is not high, so Mount Fuji, which is more than 3,700 meters high, can really be regarded as a sacred mountain. Even from Tokyo, you can see it. When Hojo Kyosuke bought a house, the real estate salesperson strongly recommended a house to him. The house was surrounded by other houses and was far less open than Ruyi Liao, but the view from the bathroom window was very wonderful.

This is what the salesperson said at the time:

“Standing here, gazing at the stunning scenery of Mount Fuji, imagining the arrival of spring and the cascading melted snow, what a refreshing feeling that would be!

I think only a great man like you, Mr. Hojo, deserves this bathroom!"

Hojo Kyosuke didn't know what kind of creative idea the previous owner of the house had when he chose not to place the bedroom under that window, but instead designed a toilet facing the window.

But after experiencing it himself, he realized after a brief shudder that this was truly worthy of being called the sacred mountain of Japan, and it really had the ability to facilitate defecation and urination.

But after much deliberation, he reluctantly rejected the property.

Because Xisaki told him that if he really liked it, he could go to Shinjuku and buy a tower apartment, where the view was better. If he was mentally abnormal enough, he could even install a full gold toilet in front of a huge floor-to-ceiling window with a 270-degree unobstructed view, and have a truly refreshing experience.

Hojo Kyosuke was fascinated by what he heard, but after a brief moment of excitement, he saw through Xisaki's trick. This sycophant actually wanted to deceive the king and make him work hard to earn money to buy a mansion!? This is really outrageous!

After having Xisaki take him to visit several high-rise towers for sale in Shinjuku, someone said that buying a house in Shinjuku was on the agenda.

In short, the people who were originally drowsy in the car became alert after seeing the snow-capped top of Mount Fuji, leaning against the car windows to look at it, and snoring in surprise.

May is the last time to view the snow on Mount Fuji. From June onwards, you can only see the dark blue Mount Fuji, and you can no longer see the white veins of snow spreading down from the top of the mountain like a lava eruption.

Hojo Kyosuke's favorite month is Mount Fuji in May, when the snow is at its best. When the snow melts, the natural shapes it forms are as beautiful as the veins of leaves. As for when you can climb Mount Fuji later? It's an active volcano! It could erupt and destroy Japan at any time!

The bus passed a field of farmland. At Eriri's strong request, everyone turned off the side road, stopped next to the field and started taking pictures.

If you want to take a photo with huge objects like Mount Fuji or tall buildings as the background, the best option is to increase the distance appropriately and use a telephoto lens.

It just so happened that the camera in Hojo's hand was a high-end one that Miyamizu Toshiki had spent a week buying. The lens was very high-end, and the teacher's own photography skills were also very good, so even if it was just a photo of an unknown roadside location, he was able to take photos that surprised the girls.

We returned to the car reluctantly. On the rest of the way, Mitsuha, Sakura, Yukino and others kept asking us to stop and take pictures. The imperial envoy really indulged in his driving addiction. Every time he left the main road, he had to take a detour for half a day to get back to the main road.

Fortunately, on the way there, everyone's novelty wore off a little and they were no longer so excited. After all, Mount Fuji could really be seen all the way. However, the journey that was supposed to take two hours actually took three and a half hours to complete.

It was not until we arrived at Yoshida City, located at the foot of Mount Fuji, that the grandeur of Mount Fuji really came into view. Mount Fuji can be seen from almost every street running north and south. The slight shock brought by the huge object right in front of us made us no longer doubt why the Japanese call it a sacred mountain.

Hojo Kyosuke, who had very sharp eyes, saw warnings prohibiting stopping in the middle of the road to take pictures on many telephone poles next to zebra crossings. Apparently, except for the locals of Yoshida City who were already sick of it, no one could resist the temptation to stand in the middle of the road to take pictures.

However, the people in the Ruyilao tour group obviously did not have this concern, because they were driving and always walked in the middle of the road. The front window of the bus was very wide, and there was not a trace of dirt on the glass of the new car, which satisfied the girls' desire to take pictures.

So if you want to appreciate Mount Fuji, self-driving is definitely the best choice. Not only can you roam freely in the streets of the city, but when you arrive at places like Yamanakako and Kawaguchiko, you can also stop at any time to enjoy the scenery without having to go to those enclosed parks and camping sites and squeeze in with the crowds.

Hojo Kyosuke took out the self-driving tour map that Kisaki helped to organize, and the imperial envoy began to wander around Mount Fuji according to the route, sometimes approaching Mount Fuji face to face, and sometimes moving away from it.

There are also some sections on the road that are tolled, and of course the scenery is even more beautiful. For example, a pedestrian bridge

It was very cinematic. The moment Hojo Kyosuke saw it, he had already thought of the 18 murders that had taken place on the overpass.

Mitsuha Miyamizu and others were also moved by what they saw, and they all wanted to pull Hojo Kyosuke up to take a hand-holding photo.

Someone was so scared that they were sweating all over. The photo would definitely look good because the weather was very good today, the sky was scary blue, and Mount Fuji was unusually clear. A couple holding hands standing on the bridge took a photo with Mount Fuji as the background, which would definitely have a sense of fate.

But he couldn't resist Miki Mitsuha and the others who all wanted to take pictures! He didn't want to witness his own murder today.

Fortunately, the endless queue of people under the overpass saved his life.

The Japanese love of taking photos was once again confirmed here. Under the overpass, from the signboard along the sidewalk all the way back, there was a line of people waiting to take photos, which was two hundred meters long.

One person climbed up the overpass to take pictures, and then another person went up. It was quite harmonious.

Hojo Kyosuke grinned at what he saw and decisively chose to let the imperial envoy drive to the road next to the overpass. After all, they were noble car owners.

The unobstructed view is amazing, as if you can drive all the way up to Mount Fuji along this road. It is a truly amazing experience.

The girls didn't stop taking photos until their stomachs growled with hunger. They had already eaten all the Japanese sweets that Sakuraba-sou had given them, and even Eriri's snacks were gone.

We did not choose to have dinner at the holiday villa we booked, but instead found a large ramen restaurant in the shopping street of Shimoyoshida.

Only when you are tired and hungry, you will realize how delicious ramen is.

"The noodles made with water melted from the snow on Mount Fuji are extremely delicious!"

This is the billboard in front of the ramen restaurant. There is even a photo of the owner driving a small truck to haul snow as evidence, which makes Hojo Kyosuke no longer hope for luck.

Asshole, you were just saying it would be nice to fool people, but you actually did it for real?

He urgently searched the Internet and found that this honest store had never had any safety issues, which made him feel relieved.

I didn't choose the strong-flavored tonkotsu ramen. It is difficult for outsiders to eat it except for Japanese people who have been eating it since childhood. The more authentic and thicker the soup base is, the stronger the pork flavor will be.

The udon noodles that Hojo Kyosuke chose had a light soy sauce flavor, and the fried tofu and barbecued pork tasted good. The fried shrimp tempura that was prepared at the restaurant was also very solid, and the taste was ridiculously cheap, which was completely unworthy of this excellent location.

After putting down the sixth empty bowl, considering that there would definitely be a midnight snack tonight, Hojo Kyousuke stopped Sakura from ordering more food. The noodles that this bad guy ordered for him were all "ハリガネ" hardness, that is, noodles as hard as iron wire.

Fortunately, his teeth were also well-tempered, so he was able to finish the meal neatly.

"Wow~ I'm full, I feel like I can climb Mt. Fuji twice in one go!"

Ying Lili touched her belly and started making bold statements n times a day.

Yukinoshita Yukino, who was also full, had a happy smile on her face.

So... this is what it feels like to eat ramen with everyone.

The girl thought silently in her heart.

Even if you accidentally make a loud noise when slurping noodles, it doesn't matter, because there will be idiots next to you who will splash the noodle soup on your face, so you won't feel embarrassed at all.

She usually only eats one serving of noodles, but she ordered an extra serving of "Taitama" (extra noodles). Although it was a bit reluctant, she still tried her best to finish it.

My stomach felt warm, and even my chest felt warm.

It's really like what Eriri said. Even if everyone wants to climb Mount Fuji now, she will resolutely follow them, even if she is prepared to die.

The color of the sun gradually turned into bright yellow, and the snow-capped top of Mount Fuji turned golden, so Yingliang went to the milk tea shop next door and ordered a mango-flavored snow-capped milk tea.

When Hojo Kyosuke and others arrived at the holiday villa on the north shore of Lake Kawaguchi, the whole world was shrouded in a thin night, and Mount Fuji also showed another kind of beauty.

The villa is very close to Lake Kawaguchi, and the lake is just across the road.

The lakeside is covered with sand and gravel of varying degrees of fineness. According to the housekeeper, you can hold a bonfire party by the lake at night and roast some food. This is all done in accordance with legal and compliant procedures.

The environment inside the villa is also excellent. Although the exterior looks like the style of the Showa era, the interior has obviously been modernized. The bathtub is not a cramped neon knee-hugging bathtub, but a round luxury bathtub, and a whole glass wall looks directly at Mount Fuji.

There aren't as many service staff as at Sakurananiwa-so, but two will always show up once you call, making it a perfect place for a family vacation.

Xiangye and Sachiko's families really spent a lot of money.

Hojo Kyosuke sighed silently, and decided to bring more souvenirs when he returned. For example, he would give the other party eight or ten of the amulets he got from Izusan Shrine.

After putting away his luggage and settling down, Hojo Kyosuke opened his cell phone and took a look.

Hmm? The Hui family also came to Kawaguchiko? (End of this chapter)
