The concrete cobblestone road is surrounded by the chirping of birds and insects, and is flanked by ordinary dense mountain forests. In addition to green, there are also faintly bright red maple leaves on Mount Takao.

When walking on the road, you can often see old men and old women walking down the mountain with trekking poles, walking vigorously.

Passing by a strange stone statue with "Six Roots of Purity" written on it, it's nearly an hour's walk up the mountain.

Along the way, we passed many strange small shrines with unknown functions.

The journey was harmonious and interesting. While walking and chatting, I enjoyed various scenery on the mountain that I couldn’t see in the city.

The first half was okay, but in the second half, Kanhara Raku discovered a point that he couldn't ignore.

——Tianhai Qimingyue is not physically strong enough.

Amami Kuruuri and Kanbaru Suzu seemed to be chatting about what they had just seen in the shopping street. Kanamehara was walking in the middle, while Amami Nanamiyue who was walking behind was getting increasingly exhausted.

At the back, Kambaraku took five or six steps, while Tianhai Qimingyue couldn't even step up one step.

"Are you okay? It looks like you're about to faint." Kanbaru quickly went over to help her.

"You are squeezing my hand like this, do you want to take advantage of me?" Although Tianhai Qimingyue was very tired, she spoke with domineering words.

Kanbaru said very speechlessly: "This is because I care about you."

Today, both Qi Mingyue and Jiu Liuli are wearing dresses with their arms exposed. When Kanbaru went to support her, he inevitably pinched her arms. They were thin and soft.

"It's better to wait until my sister comes down before taking advantage like this."

"..."

"Do you want to fight with your sister?"

"How about it, brother, do you want to see it?"

Tianhai Qimingyue's words made Kanbaru not know how to answer for a while.

Women fighting?

What does this mean?

"Forget it, I think it would be more comfortable for you two to love each other."

"It means both brothers want it, right?"

"Let's not talk about whether it is possible or not. If my uncle finds out, I'm afraid he will take me to the asphalt factory to melt it."

Kanbaru stood on the bluestone steps and looked up the mountain. At this time, A Ling and Jiu Liuli had stopped and seemed to be walking towards the two of them.

Then, Kanbaru turned around and said to Tianhai Qimingyue, who was particularly weak both in face and body:

"I'll carry you up the rest of the way. We should be reaching the top of the mountain."

"In my opinion, it's just the wind from the central air conditioner blowing on my head."

"...But it is undeniable that it is very comfortable to be blown by the air conditioner in the summer, isn't it?"

Seeing that Tianhai Qimingyue didn't say anything, Kanharale quickly smiled and said:

"Okay, it's decided, I'll carry you up."

Kambaraku didn't wait for Tianhai Qimingyue to refuse, then came to the stairs beside her and bent down beside her.

Tianhai Qimingyue did not immediately put her hands on his back, but looked at his back with slightly swaying eyes in front of her, bending towards her. She showed a slightly awkward expression:

"You are so cunning."

"Be cunning, be cunning, but it's true that you can't walk now, right? I will definitely not leave you alone, so... just use it as a temporary support... Okay, hurry up

Come on up, she will definitely be jealous when Ah Ling gets close."

Tianhai Qimingyue saw him waving to her again, and then carefully moved her body to his.

"What kind of concern does this come from?"

"You can do whatever you want. Anyway, I am taking care of you now. It is an indisputable fact."

Kanbaru confirmed that she had indeed held his neck firmly, and then began to walk towards Tianhai Jiureli and Kanbaru Suzu above.

"What's wrong?" Tianhai Jiuliuli looked at the two of them and asked, "Are you injured?"

"Ah, it's nothing," Kagura Le explained to Jiuliuli while carrying the girl behind her, whose eyes were a little evasive, "It's just that Qi Mingyue really can't walk, so I'll carry her on my back for the rest of the way."

Kanbaru Suzu looked a little unhappy when she saw her brother hugging Qi Mingyue's thigh:

"Are you physically so weak?"

Tianhai Jiuliuli explained for her sister: "Qi Mingyue has not liked exercise since she was a child, she seldom walks, and her physical strength is very weak."

Sister...is speaking for herself.

Tianhai Qimingyue realized this. Even after her sister knew that she had kissed the person she liked while she was alone, she was still helping her to speak.

My sister must be feeling bad now.

But even Qi Mingyue didn't know why. Instead, she hugged the person carrying her tighter in front of her sister.

My heart is conveying the idea of ​​"not wanting to let go"...

It is this strange mentality that makes it difficult for Tianhai Qimingyue to face her sister.

Kanbaru Raku echoed what he said before: "That's right, I didn't even finish the Qimingyue Run in gym class before."

"They are obviously twins! Their physiques should be about the same."

"The reasons for different habits."

Kanbaru thought for a long time and could only think of this explanation. He thought that A Ling would be jealous or something, but he didn't expect that she just said "hmm" to express her understanding.

Probably...she thought today was Qi Mingyue's birthday, and Qi Mingyue really couldn't walk...A Ling took this into consideration, so she didn't have a temper, right?

Unconsciously, Ah Ling seems to have grown up a lot.

......

After that, everyone enjoyed the scenery along the way while climbing the mountain, and the journey was peaceful.

During this period, Jiuliuli turned around several times with the camera in hand and asked Kaname Yuara if there was any problem, and he always replied that it was fine.

Qi Mingyue’s weight is not very high.

There is also a comfortable fragrance on her body, so I don’t feel uncomfortable carrying her up the mountain.

While marching, the group of people gradually came to a section of green dense forest mountain road.

It is surrounded by moisture and fog, and the road is covered with all kinds of weeds with water-colored leaves, and occasionally there are a few low trees interspersed among them.

When walking, the trouser legs will be inadvertently wet by the scratched rain, and even the soil under the feet will be soft and sticky.

Fresh and refreshing.

"It's quite humid in the morning on the mountain. Do you feel cold?" Kanhara asked as he walked, looking at Tianhai Qimingyue behind him.

"It's okay."

"That's good. I also said that if you're cold, you can come down and I'll put my coat on you."

After a brief chat, Kanbaru carried her on his back and continued walking. Whether it was her arm holding her neck or her upper body leaning behind her, she could feel the slenderness and lightness of her body.

The skin on the thighs under the skirt is also quite delicate.

In order to prevent her from sliding down, I pinched the flesh of her legs and stood on tiptoe several times.

Amidst the faint fragrance coming from behind and the mist in the mountains, the gentle sound of the seven bright moons in the sky and sea came to my ears.

"You walk a little slower, I have something to tell you."

Only then did Kanbaru realize that she had put her face on his shoulder, and her mouth was just a few feet away from his ears.

Whatever you say is like blowing heat towards yourself.

Kanbaru Raku looked at Jiu Liuli and Kanbaru Suzu who were walking in front, and then kept a certain distance from Jiu Liuli and Kanbaru Suzu as she said.

"Why do you want to talk now? Why didn't you say anything just now?"

"Aren't you tired of carrying me?"

"It's okay. Aren't you a beautiful girl? I'm happy to carry you."

"This is the second time you have carried me behind your back since you became an elder brother."

Does it mean that she still remembers the time when she took wedding photos? Kambara faintly noticed the change in her voice, which was not as calm as usual.

Of course, it may be an illusion. After all, even though Qi Mingyue's words have no emotional fluctuations, she is also a thoughtful person, and you can more or less feel it from her words.

"How do you feel?"

"I like it very much." Tianhai Qimingyue leaned next to his ear and said softly.

The girl's frankness in his ears was unbearable, and it also made Kanbaru stunned for a while. He suddenly felt her hugging him tighter, and his brain became more emptier, and his senses became clearer. There were soft dead leaves under his feet.

My feelings suddenly became clear.

"I can probably understand that it would feel very relaxing to rest all the weight of the body on other places, right?"

Tianhai Qimingyue did not answer his rhetorical question, but continued what he had just said:
To be continued...
