Chapter 24 - Chapter 48: Playing Cosplay in the Dark?

It is not advisable to soak in a hot spring for too long. When the three of them felt a little sleepy, they changed their clothes and left.

As soon as Feng An came out, he saw Hinata's red face.

He asked worriedly, "Did you soak for too long? Do you have a headache?"

When Hinata saw him, she remembered the conversation he had with Hyūga Hiashi before.

Her already rosy face became even redder.

She quickly shook her head: "It's okay, just a little hot."

"That's good."

Feng An nodded and took Hinata's hand.

"Let's go find a place to sleep."

Hyūga Hiashi, who was walking behind them, suddenly frowned.

"Are you really just sleeping when you sleep?"

"Of course."

"Good, very good."

Hyūga Hiashi nodded.

Feng An looked at Hyūga Hiashi with disdain.

It's really like judging a gentleman with a petty heart.

Then Hyūga Hiashi followed the two of them to a small inn.

Feng An took a quick look at the environment and hygiene.

Overall quite satisfactory; cleanliness was good.

The noise around wasn't loud, which was good—otherwise it would be bad if you suddenly heard some "hmm" and "ah" sounds while trying to rest in the middle of the night.

Feng An saw the woman dozing off at the front desk and walked over.

"Is there a room available?"

Hearing that there was a customer, the woman at the front desk instantly woke up and wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth.

"Yes!"

"How many rooms do you have left?"

The woman at the front desk paused for a moment and looked at the two people in front of her. The man was handsome, and the girl next to him had a red face and seemed very shy.

A man and a woman, a tourist attraction, heading to a small inn late at night!

Conditions met!

"There's only one room left."

The woman winked at Feng An.

It seemed to be telling him, "I can see the purpose of your visit at a glance." How about this assist? Is it powerful, Sis?

Feng An was stunned for a moment, but when he saw her clever expression, he immediately understood.

The people of the Land of Hot Springs were extraordinary. Even small inns were so good at guessing the guests' thoughts. No wonder the country wasn't big but had a thriving economy.

However, before Feng An could say anything, Hyūga Hiashi behind him widened his eyes.

He stepped forward with a dark face and said in a low voice, "Open three rooms!"

The woman was suddenly flustered.

Masaka?!

Could this be a father traveling with his children?

A major blunder.

But no matter how she looked at it, these three people didn't look like they were all from the same immediate family.

"Sorry, sorry, here are the keys."

She quickly took out the keys to three rooms and nodded in apology.

"How much?"

"Originally it was 1,120 ryō per night. I'm very sorry for the misunderstanding earlier. How about 3,000 ryō for three rooms?"

"Hmph."

Hyūga Hiashi snorted, took out three thousand ryō, and gave it to the woman, then picked up the keys and went upstairs.

After he left, the woman frowned and thought.

Since they are a family, why do they need three rooms?

After the three of them went upstairs, they were assigned the three innermost rooms on the second floor: 204, 205, and 206.

Hyūga Hiashi coughed before entering room 204.

Feng An naturally knew this was a warning for him.

"Goodnight, Hinata."

"Good night, Feng An."

After Feng An entered room 205, he practiced according to his usual habits.

Nowadays, he had mastered ninjutsu more and more proficiently, and the types were more complete. Among the seven chakra natures, he now knew techniques for six of them; he still lacked Yang Release ninjutsu.

He should have paid more attention to the medical ninjutsu when he read the Book of Seals in his previous life, but it was too late for regrets now.

His medical ninjutsu was poor, especially in terms of sensory perception, but those who time-traveled understood the importance of medical ninjutsu.

It was too easy to break arms and legs in a fight between ninjas if you weren't careful.

With powerful medical ninjutsu, a severed arm could be reattached as long as treatment was timely.

After all, the ninja world's understanding of the human body was really too outrageous.

Eye transplant? Just pluck it out and stick it in your own eye socket. Cell transplant? No matter what, just inject it with a big syringe.

After completing all his training routines, Feng An breathed a sigh of relief.

He took out the sealing scroll he had bought during the day and prepared to bind the Kusanagi Sword he had picked up.

He looked at the sealing technique on the scroll, and it seemed more and more familiar.

"As expected, the techniques for sealing ninja tools and summoning contracts are basically similar."

After performing the binding ritual, Feng An injected his chakra into the Kusanagi Sword, thus completely severing its connection to Orochimaru.

Feng An experimented with the Kusanagi Sword's ability to lengthen, shorten, and channel chakra for a while, then put it back into the scroll.

"I wonder if Hinata is asleep..."

"Damn, old man, I didn't accomplish anything on this first date."

He sat up and unzipped his backpack.

Inside was a sexy, striped, string-style swimsuit.

"Sigh..."

Feng An sighed and took out the light blue butterfly hairpin next to it.

He had originally wanted to give it to Hinata, but because he was afraid the striped swimsuit would be seen by Hyūga Hiashi, he hadn't dared to open the backpack.

Knock, knock.

The sudden knock on the door startled Feng An, and he quickly stuffed everything back into his backpack.

Could it be the old man coming to check on me?

Then Hinata's subtle voice was heard from outside the door.

"Are you asleep? Feng An."

Feng An breathed a sigh of relief: "The door isn't locked; come in."

Hinata carefully closed the door behind her and sat next to Feng An.

She blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at him.

"Let's get started."

Started?

Seeing Hinata's beautiful eyes as soft as water, his own eyes widened instantly.

"Start what?"

"That's right, the training you mentioned the other day... didn't you say that I was the only one who could help you..."

"Oh..."

Feng An's expression fell instantly.

At this moment, Hinata suddenly saw something that looked like a handkerchief stuck in the zipper of Feng An's backpack.

Hinata pointed at the exposed corner of the striped swimsuit and asked in confusion, "What is this?"

Feng An looked in the direction she pointed and saw it was the swimsuit.

He immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

Although this was bought for Hinata, he had bought it on impulse, and it would be bad to give her this kind of swimsuit in this situation.

It was pitch black now. If she misunderstood that he wanted to do some kind of cosplay, she'd label him a pervert!

I need to calm down!

"Why are you sweating so much all of a sudden? Is that a handkerchief?"

Hinata said as she reached for the backpack.

Feng An's eyes widened.

By the time he tried to stop her, Hinata had already unzipped the backpack.

"Ah!!"

Hinata's entire face turned red when she saw the true form of the "handkerchief."

She had thought it was a handkerchief, but it turned out to be a string swimsuit, and the key point was that the fabric was very small.

If she put it on, at least half of her snow-white skin would be exposed to the air.

After seeing Hinata pull it out completely, Feng An's whole body deflated.

It's over!

Why did I choose this swimsuit on impulse?

I'm afraid the favorability I worked so hard to build will be reduced to zero...

"What's going on?!"

On the other side, Hyūga Hiashi, who was already on edge and afraid to fall asleep, suddenly heard Hinata's exclamation and immediately straightened his back and sat up.
