Have You Confessed Your Love Today? Chapter 9

Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Hot Springs

White mist rises in the forest, and the snow melts under the warmth, revealing the original color of the earth.

A magnificent building stands among the mountains and forests. In the winter, greenery can still be seen in the building.

The sound of gurgling water is particularly pleasant in winter, and is accompanied from time to time by a few crisp bird calls, just like the lingering summer spirit in winter.

The midday sun shines through the gaps between the leaves and falls on the pond water, casting sparkling waves on the surface of the pond, which is so beautiful that it is beyond human.

Akechi Kengo was sitting in the pool, soaking in the hot spring water from his chest down. His exposed chest had muscle lines that couldn’t be seen when he was wearing clothes.He stretched out his two long arms on the edge of the pool, enjoying the fun of the winter hot springs.

This is a hot spring hotel.Since you don’t need to check in to use the hot springs, it’s great for killing time.

They got up too early in the morning and now it’s time to soak in the hot springs and relax.

Zhufu Gaoming cannot soak in hot springs for a long time now. After rinsing his body, he goes into the water and soaks for five to ten minutes, then gets up and sits next to him to rest for a while before he can go into the water again.

However, the stones beside the hot spring pool have been soaked by the water all year round and are very smooth. You can feel the warmth just by sitting on the stones.

Zhufu Gaoming let out a comfortable sigh.

“It’s good to soak in hot springs in winter to relieve fatigue.” Akechi Kanwu said happily.

Zhu Fu Gaoming nodded, feeling that the coldness that hit his bones after falling into the ice lake disappeared completely in the hot spring water.

He looked at Mingzhi Jianwu’s face in the white mist: “Jianwu, can you see clearly?”

“Well, my myopia has not worsened.” Akechi Kanwu looked a bit strange without glasses.

The wise and enlightened person in Zhu Fu Gaoming’s mind was still the proud and enthusiastic man who was as dazzling as the sun when he was in college.

Even though the two of them had never lost communication for so many years, Zhu Fu Gaoming still couldn’t imagine what it would be like for a wise and enlightened person to become a mature and steady wise and vigilant person.

——The high-profile all-around genius whose name was still circulated in the school for the next four years.Perhaps more than ten years later, when attending classes at Dongda University, teachers will still mention the gifted students they taught.

Judging from the status that Akechi Kansoku has achieved now, this is almost inevitable.

But the moment Mingzhi Jianwu walked into the ward, Zhu Fu Gaoming recognized him immediately.

There was almost no change in that face, but the arrogant and noble temperament settled down and became another heavy sense of oppression.

That is the leadership quality that comes from giving orders for a long time, which allows people to see the difference in the crowd at a glance.

Zhufu Gaoming looked at Mingzhi Jianwu and blurted out in a daze: “Jianwu, how many years have we not seen each other?”

Akechi Kenwu was licking his body. Hearing this, he thought for a while: “Excluding occasional contact, we haven’t seen him since I went to Los Angeles!”

He said with some emotion: “After all, it has been ten years.”

They say they started in Los Angeles, but actually after graduating from college, the two people who agreed to go to the police academy together have already embarked on two paths.

The professional group and the non-professional group had been separated at this time. The two were not together when they went to the police academy, but they would make appointments to study and make progress together.

After graduating from the police academy, one stayed in Tokyo and the other returned to Nagano.As a member of the professional team, Akechi Kengo was the focus of training. He soon showed his abilities and became one of the police officers who went to Los Angeles to study.

The mountains are high and the water is far away, and there is a time difference. The contact information between the two has changed from phone calls and emails to handwritten letters.

This retro way of communication did not lead to drifting apart and no books due to the separation between the two. Instead, it added a special connection to the friendship.

Being wise and enlightened is not a character that confides in others, but after meeting some special people and events, sitting at the desk and carefully combing through one’s own heart is both communication and relaxation, and it is an inner examination and review of events.

The moment of waiting for Zhu Fu Gaoming’s reply is the expectation of another opinion. The moment of receiving the letter is the collision of souls and the confrontation of wisdom.

——No communication is closer to the soul than this kind of communication.

They haven’t seen each other in ten years, and they have never been separated.

Old friends meet again, and their appearance remains the same as it was when they were young yesterday.

Akechi Kengo looked at Zhufu Gaoming’s slightly thin body: “I heard that most of the criminals in Nagano are extremely vicious. Now it seems that the rumors are exaggerated.”

Zhufu Gaoming laughed dumbly.Some characters seem to be the background of the soul and will never change.

He retorted crisply: “Want to compare?”

“I won’t take advantage of others’ danger.” Mingzhi Jianwu said confidently, “I can’t win against you now.”

Zhufu Gaoming made a promise to him: “When we meet next time, I will let Akechi Police realize the power of Nagano Police Department.”

“We’ll see.” Mingzhi Jianwu stared at Zhufu Gaoming curiously, “Gaoming, when did you start growing a beard?”

Zhu Fu Gaoming touched the mustache above his lips and said seriously: “At thirty, you should make some changes.”

Mingzhi Jiwu, who is also thirty-five years old, raised his eyebrows: “Do you think there are any changes after growing a beard?”

Zhufu Gaoming thought for a while and said helplessly: “You need to set aside time to take care of your beard in the morning.”

The two chatted for a while in the hot spring. How could they talk about ten years of experience in just a few hours?

The last thing that interrupted the two of them was the setting sun.The two left the hot spring and drove to the observation deck of Standing Stone Park.

The observation deck at Standing Stone Park overlooks the entire lake and surrounding cityscape, which is particularly spectacular at sunset.

The sunset filled the sky, and the setting sun was the same color as the lake and sky. The surrounding cities were shrouded in orange-red light, making people forget their thoughts.

The sunset in December was very early, and it was just five o’clock when Mingzhi Jianwu and Zhufu Gaoming walked off the viewing platform.

This time is just right for the two of them who got up early in the morning. After driving back and having dinner, they can go to bed early.

When they went back, Akechi Kenwu was still driving, and the two of them also went to the supermarket to buy food. They both saw that there was no fresh food at home.

The supermarket is bustling with people and has a strong festive atmosphere. Various New Year decorations and food boxes are neatly placed on the shelves.

Seeing this, Zhizhi Jianwu said to Zhufu Gaoming: “Come tomorrow to buy things for the New Year?”

Zhufu Gaoming nodded: “Okay.”

Both of us are a little tired today, and there are fewer choices left in the supermarket for the evening, so why not choose carefully tomorrow.

The two of them reached a consensus and made a quick decision. They bought the ingredients for tonight and tomorrow morning and left.

Back in his bedroom, Zhu Fu Gaoming lay on the bed, having a premonition that he would not be awakened by dreams again tonight.

I searched for information for a long time but couldn’t find how many years Akechi went to Los Angeles. Some said one year and some said three years. I also checked the Neon Police Research Institute. Online information said it was usually a few months to a year, so let’s count it as one year.Akechi entered the search class only after returning to China and was partnered with Kobayashi at the age of 25. In this article, he is set to be 35 years old, which is exactly ten years.
