Chapter 12

It is now the end of April in Aomori, and the fishermen have been fishing for quite some time, but it is not yet the peak season for fishing, so when Amamiya Tadashi and Tsushima Shuji arrived at the place, some kind fishermen came to serve as guides for them.

"There are quite a lot of tourists these days," the fisherman said, looking at the young Amamiya Reizo and the 10-year-old Tsushima Shuji, with a simple and friendly expression, "Have you booked a hotel?"

Amamiya Ruisei thought about what he had done before he came out.

Well, it seems not.

He sent an email to the head of the Tsushima family in the middle of the night... uh, it should be early in the morning, around five o'clock. He chatted with him for half an hour and successfully got permission to take Tsushima Shuji out for a walk. Then he became so excited that he couldn't sleep. He walked back and forth in the room. Finally, he couldn't hold back and started packing his luggage.

The fishing ground is also in Aomori Prefecture, so naturally there was no need to pack a lot of things. However, as Amamiya Leisei was packing, he found that he had stuffed his suitcase full. He helplessly took some things out, and later simply dumped everything out and packed again.

But it still evolved into the large and small bags that Tsushima Shuji saw, and when the boy saw it for the first time, he thought he was going to resign and run away.

Amamiya Ruisei looked at Tsushima Shuji with a guilty look on his face as he packed his things for him. The two of them only took some clothes for a change and went to the fishing ground in the family car.

So Amemiya didn't even think about the pressure he was under, he still needed to book a hotel.

When Tsushima Shuji saw the young man's expression, he knew that the only thing on his mind was going out to have fun. He raised his hand and supported his forehead in silence, saying, "It's okay. My family should have a hotel here. I'll call and ask if there are any rooms available."

This time they went out, openly bringing only a driver and bodyguard, and a maid to arrange chores. As for how many other people the head of the Tsushima family had arranged secretly, Amamiya Keizo had no idea.

Apart from the two people following him, there is the reliable Amamiya Tadashi, who is not yet a child, and the reliable minor Tsushima Shuji.

Fortunately, the hotel had enough empty rooms, and because of the young master, Amamiya Ruisheng was lucky enough to get a super large hot spring room, the kind where he could soak in the hot spring directly in the room!

The young man stood beside the hot spring, carrying his bag, his eyes shining, and was so excited that he almost had multiple tails wagging wildly.

"Sir, my room is next door...Okay, stop looking. We'll go soaking in the evening at least." Tsushima Shuji packed up his things and walked in, and saw that his husband was about to jump into the hot spring pool. All the gratitude he had for the fact that Amamiya Keisei had somehow managed to get him out had disappeared.

"I have made a reservation at a restaurant that has lots of seafood. Let's go. You didn't eat much for breakfast. Aren't you hungry?"

Only then did Amamiya Ruisei reluctantly leave the hot spring, put down the things in his hands, and followed Tsushima Shuji out for lunch.

It was the end of April, the midday sun was warm and Amamiya Keisei was in a particularly good mood.

This is his first time to visit the fishing ground. Next time he has the chance, he wants to go to the beach. It would be even better if he could go to the water playground to play games while playing in the water. He also wants to go hiking and watch the sunrise and sunset...

The young man was thinking beautifully, with a slightly lewd smile on his face, and he laughed "hehe" from time to time. If you didn't know him, you would think he was thinking about something indescribable.

"What are you thinking about, sir?" Tsushima Shuji asked coldly.

"I'm thinking about where to go next time...ah!" Amamiya Raisei said, "Shuji-kun, do you want to play with me?"

Tsushima Shuji said unhappily, "Are you here to work or to have fun?"

"Students still have their holidays, so of course teachers will have their holidays too."

Amamiya Ruisheng said confidently, "And I think you need to walk more. If you stay in the house all day, you will become isolated."

"And I brought my books with me. We can study while playing. I will definitely not fall behind in your studies, Shuji-kun."

Tsushima Shuji's eyes were blank.

Going out to play and studying is frustrating even for a good student, right? What is going on in this idiot's head?

"Don't worry, I'm just pretending to be nice to your father."

Amamiya Leisei approached the boy and whispered in his ear: "No matter what, even if you are willing to learn while playing, I am not willing to teach while playing."

Shuji Tsushima: “…………”

Amamiya Leisheng snorted and said, "After all, I've never been here before, and neither have you. You certainly can't waste your wonderful free time studying. Besides, we can only be out for two days, and then we have to go back."

Speaking of this, Tsushima Shuji was a little confused: "How did you get my father to agree to let me come out?"

When the matter was over, he was ordered in person not to go out, but when he woke up in the morning, he was able to go out?

“Well…” Amamiya Leisheng rolled his eyes and said, “This is a deal between adults. Children can’t know about it.”

Tsushima Shuji said quietly: "I think you are more like a child than I am."

I am happier than anyone else when I come out to play.

The boy thought, maybe it was because his health was so poor in the past that he didn’t have the chance to go out and play. Even though he is already a man in his thirties, he is still like a child and finds everything interesting.

Perhaps it was the age when he should have been enjoying happiness, but he spent every day and night in the hospital. After he recovered and was free from the pain, he began endless study and further education, and finally became a professor at the University of Tokyo.

If he hadn't been invited by the head of the Tsushima family, he would probably still be teaching students at the university.

Amemiya Reizo smiled and did not deny it. He was not much older than Tsushima Shuji.

"Okay, you are a little adult, but you still can't know about the dirty deals of adults." He reached out and tapped Tsushima Shuji's forehead, "When you grow up a little and understand more things, think about these things again."

Tsushima Shuji curled his lips and said, "Don't eat seafood for lunch. Go and have the children's meal."

"Oh, don't—"

…

Of course, lunch has already been booked, so we'll have seafood.

Considering the appetite of two people and the chance of having another meal, Tsushima Shuji didn't order too much. He just ordered a big fish, some sashimi, and his favorite crab.

In fact, with his identity, he cannot reveal his preferences in many aspects, but he has learned to satisfy himself without leaving any trace, such as eating something else while eating crabs.

Tsushima Shuji was concentrating on gnawing on the crab shell, while Amamiya Ruisei was sitting opposite him eating fish fillet. Seeing him eating with gusto, he also reached out and took one to eat.

"To be honest," Amamiya Leisei said vaguely, "I thought the young masters of wealthy families had someone to help them peel the shells."

Tsushima Shuji: "If you want, you can have it, but it's not necessary. This is not the old times anymore. You have hands and feet, why should you let servants do everything for you?"

"Besides, it's not very safe to let others handle this kind of imported stuff." Tsushima Shuji thought for a while and said, "I remember a relative of mine who ate something he shouldn't have eaten outside and died. He used to be an official in Hokkaido, and it's very chaotic there." But Aomori is also in the north, so it's about the same.

The Tsushima family has many industries in Aomori. It can be said that during their trip, except for the fishing grounds which belong to someone else, all the food and accommodation they provide are industries under the name of Tsushima.

“It’s so dangerous.”

Amamiya Reiichi sighed, "It's better to be ordinary after all."

"What do you want to do in the future, Shuji-kun? Enter politics like your family?"

"...I don't know." Tsushima Shuji ate the fish, "My two brothers are here, if I go too, it will be a problem."

Amemiya Ruisei thought about it and agreed. The Tsushima family was already very powerful in Aomori. If the whole family went into politics, it was unclear whether Aomori would be renamed Tsushima.

"Start a company and become a boss?"

Tsushima Shuji: “…I feel like it will be very tiring.”

"It's going to be tiring to do any job." Amamiya shrugged. "Maybe you can become a teacher? I feel like someone like Shuji would be very serious as a teacher and be able to scare off bad students."

Shuji Tsushima: “I don’t think I’m suitable.”

Just thinking about dealing with children makes me tired. After all, not all children are as sensible as him. Even the teacher is more childish than me, huh! Tsushima Shuji thought affirmatively.

"It's hard to predict."

Amamiya Leisei smiled and said, "Well, I think Shuji-kun has a talent for teaching students. Well, it's a matter for the future anyway, so let's talk about it later. Here."

He put the crab meat he had peeled into Tsushima Shuji's bowl: "Shuji-kun, you like crabs, right?"

Tsushima Shuji looked at the crab meat and crab roe that had unknowingly appeared in the bowl, glanced at the pile of shells in front of Amamiya Ruisei, and fell into deep thought.

...Hmm? What happened?

"Pfft," Amamiya Leisei chuckled, "While you and I were chatting and eating fish, I was peeling them. I saw that you ordered so many crabs, you have to eat them all. Do you like them?"

Tsushima Shuji took a bite of meat and uttered a few inaudible syllables from his throat.

Amamiya Leisei took a look at the boy's expression and put the food he had just prepared aside with understanding: "If you like it, eat more. But eating too much at once is not good. Let's eat something else tonight."

"It's a pity that now is not the best time for crabs. I'll go back and eat more when the season comes."

Tsushima Shuji responded with a low “hmm”.

“…I do like to eat.”

The boy lowered his head, his slightly long hair hanging down, blocking his sight but revealing the slightly red tips of his ears.
