 We took a plane and arrived in Hokkaido before noon.

 ”I’m hungry before the mission, let’s eat!”

 We got into a car from someone who came to see us off at the airport and headed to a local recommended soup curry place.

 Actually, we could have taken a taxi since we had some money from the special mission and the darts this morning, but we decided to stick to hitchhiking or renting a car or bike to connect with the locals.

 ”The vegetables and potatoes in the soup curry are so good!!”

 I think I’ll try to make this when I get home.

 Having a curry party at the moving-in party for my new place doesn’t sound bad at all.

 No, actually, it sounds great. Curry is definitely better when shared with a lot of people.

 ”The egg is soft and creamy, it’s delicious!”

 ”Yeah! Plus, the spicy curry soup goes really well with the chicken!”

 Shintaro and Tenga-senpai were happily eating their curry.

 On the other hand, Toa, who loves curry, was quietly eating.

 Huh? I feel like something is off here.

 By the way, Toa has been a bit quiet since this morning…

 Wait!? Could it be that he’s mad at me for coming home late this morning, even if it was unavoidable during an important trip!?

 And Toa, who usually only eats mild curry, is eating medium spicy soup curry today… this must mean he’s really upset.

 ”Hey, junior?”

 ”What’s wrong, Aqua?”

 I did a deep bow in front of everyone, just like the Prime Minister taught.

 In times like this, it’s best to sincerely apologize.

 ”I’m sorry, everyone! You all wanted to play with beautiful girls in swimsuits on the beach in Okinawa, right?!”

 But I ended up having fun with Maron-san all by myself, I’m really sorry!!

 Let’s all go pick up girls together this time!!

 ”No, not really… I-I promised Awashima-san that we would go to the pool together next time.”

 ”I’m not angry either.”

 Both of them aren’t angry!?

 And Shintaro, you’re going to the pool with Awashima-san!?

 When did that happen!!

 Are you okay? Do you know how to use a condom and how to unhook a bra properly!?

 If you want, I can help you practice unhooking bras!

 ”Ugh, I suddenly feel cold… Even though it’s warm, Hokkaido is still chilly. Let’s eat curry.”

 Hey, Shintaro, are you okay?

 Even though it’s summer, the temperature drops about 10 degrees when moving from Okinawa to Hokkaido. Don’t get too cold.

 Hah, by the way, it’s nice to see you getting along with Awashima-san.

 I’m happy for you. You really are the kind of guy I can count on when it matters.

 Don’t worry, when you get married, I want you to leave Kiyoko-san to me as your future father-in-law.

 I stare at Shintaro with a serious face.

 ”By the way, junior. The other day, Haruka said she wants to hang out with the Shirogane family again. If you’re free, how about we go to the beach together with BERYL’s family?”

 ”Of course, Tenga-senpai.”

 I’ve heard from Tenga-senpai about Haruka-san’s situation.

 Their first night together went well, but it seems that Haruka-san sometimes has flashbacks when things get intimate. I’ve heard she’s been calming down recently, but it hasn’t completely gone away.

 Tenga-senpai is an adult, so he stays calm, but just hearing about it, or even just remembering her ex-husband makes me feel annoyed.

 ”Don’t make that face, junior. But, I guess… Aqua, Shintaro, and those 3 can make that face for me, so I can stay calm. Thank you junior for always being angry instead of me and Haruka.”

 Tenga-senpai saying that is just too cool and dazzling.

 I’m really glad Tenga-senpai is my senpai.

 ”By the way… Toa hasn’t said much, has he?”

 ”Yeah, that’s true. What’s wrong?”

 ”Toa?”

 Tenga-senpai and Shintaro also notice something is off with Toa and call out to him.

 Still, Toa quietly scoops up his curry soup with a spoon and eats.

 Hmm? This reaction doesn’t seem like he’s angry. More like…

 ”Toa, I’m going to touch your forehead.”

 I place my hand on Toa’s forehead.

 Whoa! Wait a minute. He’s really hot!!

 ”Ah, this is bad. He might have a cold.”

 ”””””What!?”””””

 With my one comment, the customers and staff who were quiet just a moment ago suddenly start to panic.

 ”Oh no, oh no!”

 ”Toa-chan has a fever!? Is he going to die!?”

 ”Don’t die, Toa-chan!!”

 ”Call an ambulance!!!”

 ”Is there a doctor among the people walking by!?”

 ”Quick, call the government’s BERYL hotline!!”

 ”I need to call the Prime Minister’s office and let Habu know!!”

 ”No, no, the Prime Minister isn’t reliable, it should be Agewa-san!!”

 ”Ugh! The Beryl BERYL consultation line isn’t connecting at all!!”

 ”In that case, you should call the Shirogane Aqua support room at Beryl Entertainment.”

 ”First, let’s calm down and check the bulletin board. The people on the board are a bit useless, but Saba-chan can hack into the emergency channels, government lines, and even the Self-Defense Forces and police lines all by herself!!”

 ”That’s it!”

 I snatched the spoon from Toa and moved it a bit to the side.

 ”Toa, since when have you been feeling this way?”

 ”Since this morning… but at first, I thought it was okay. I’m sorry.”

 ”Don’t worry about it. So, what about on the plane?”

 ”I was sleeping on the plane, and I thought I’d feel better, but when I woke up, I felt terrible. I think I had a fever since we landed at the airport.”

 I received a cold towel from the staff and placed it on Toa’s forehead.

 While I was doing that, a doctor from the nearby clinic rushed over.

 ”What the heck is going on?!”

 When I stepped outside, not only an ambulance but also police cars and rescue teams, along with Self-Defense Force vehicles, had arrived.

 Seriously, is it really that noisy up there?

 When I looked up at the sky, I saw news helicopters and Self-Defense Force planes flying around like crazy.

 No, everyone is being way too dramatic!!

 Looking closely, I saw Kaede on a big monitor on the main street, wearing a safety helmet for some reason, seriously reading the news about Toa catching a cold.

 Come on! Everyone, calm down! If this keeps up, things that could get better won’t!

 We accompanied Toa to the hospital, got him checked out, and received some medicine. Then we booked a room at a nearby hotel to let Toa rest.

 Phew… we were almost at the point where Toa would have to be admitted to the intensive care unit.

 ”Thank you, Aqua, for stopping everyone from going crazy.”

 ”Don’t mention it. Toa.”

 I gently covered Toa with a blanket.

 Even though he’s small, he’s pretty good at holding back his feelings, so I can’t really say when things get tough.

 That’s why I regret not paying more attention to Toa.

 ”…Aqua, you should go out since you might catch a cold.”

 ”I’m fine, I’m fine. I’m taking my meds, and you shouldn’t push yourself too hard when you’re sick. Just wait a sec.”

 Hearing a knock, I go to the entrance and open the door.

 It’s probably Shintaro, who went out to buy some stuff.

 ”Aqua. I got some drinks and jelly.”

 ”Thanks, Shintaro.”

 I take what Shintaro bought and head back to Toa.

 As expected of Shintaro, he got a lot of things.

 ”Shintaro brought back a bunch of stuff from shopping.”

 ”Make sure to say thank you for me.”

 I place the drinks and jelly within Toa’s reach.

 ”How’s the shoot going?”

 ”Toa said he wants to keep going, so we’re continuing.”

 ”What about the mission?”

 ”Tenga-senpai is out borrowing a car, so don’t worry.”

 The mission was to take commemorative photos at places that became memories during our nationwide tour in Hokkaido.

 At first, I thought I would clear the mission alone and make sure Shintaro and Tenga-senpai took a break, but they insisted on doing it instead. I was busy preparing for the move and going to Noto, so they told me to take a proper rest.

 So now, I’m staying with Toa just in case, while Shintaro and Tenga-senpai are the ones clearing the mission.

 ”Aqua… I’m getting sleepy.”

 ”The medicine must be kicking in. Well, I’ll be sleeping in the next room, so call me if anything happens.”

 I said that and left the room, quietly going to sleep in the next room.

 Of course, being someone who falls asleep easily, I was out in 0 seconds.

 ”Ugh!?”

 When I woke up, I was breathing heavily.

 W-What was that dream just now!?

 It was supposed to be a fun erotic dream, but why did it suddenly turn into a nightmare with the queen-like succubus Kohina-senpai showing up!?

 I was having a great dream where I was being ridden by 3 girls in succubus cosplay, but then it turned into a nightmare where I was being drained by Kohina-senpai in succubus cosplay.

 Where are my big sister-type succubus Maron-san!? Where’s my little devil mom-type succubus Fran-chan!? Where did my tsundere-type succubus Ayana go!?

 I got out of bed to check on Toa.

 ”Toa~ are you awake~?”

 I didn’t want to wake Toa if he was still sleeping, so I entered his room quietly.

 ”Ah…”

 ”Hmm?”

 I made eye contact with Toa, who was taking off his outer garment on the bed.

 ”Sorry!”

 ”N-No, it’s okay. I was just a little surprised.”

 But, we’re just guys, so there’s no need to worry about it!!

 Even so, I was surprised because Toa looks like Subaru-tan.

 Ah… speaking of which, there was that time when Milk Dipper was changing in the waiting room, and due to a communication error, I ended up seeing everyone’s n*ked bodies. That image is still burned into my mind.

 I’m really glad nothing happened back then. In my past life, that would have been a complete incident and I would have been arrested.

 ”Hey, let me wipe your back.”

 ”Okay, thanks.”

 I wiped Toa’s back and took out a new change of clothes from my bag to hand to her.

 Somehow, he looked better than when I saw him earlier.

 ”Hmm. The fever’s gone down.”

 ”Yeah. I think I’m feeling a bit better, and I’m getting hungry…”

 Speaking of which, Toa hadn’t even finished half of her curry earlier.

 Alright! If that’s the case, leave it to me!!

 ”Toa, just wait a bit. Oh, and if you’re sleepy, you can sleep.”

 ”Okay.”

 I asked the hotel staff if I could borrow the staff kitchen for a bit.

 For some reason, they led me to the hotel kitchen. Of course, I made sure to sanitize my hands before entering.

 ”Thank you very much.”

 ”No, thank you!!”

 Apparently, the menu I’m about to make will be served as the hotel’s dinner.

 Wait, I’m just making meat udon!? Is it really okay for the hotel dinner to be meat udon?

 Huh? Have the customers already agreed? They cried tears of joy? What does that even mean…?

 ”Normally, I’d use pork, but since it’s a special occasion, how about using lamb?”

 I used lamb and green onions to make my special cold-fighting meat udon.

 I remembered how I used to make this for the kids at the children’s home when they had colds in my past life.

 By the way, it was Nemoto-sensei who taught me this udon recipe back then.

 Feeling a bit sentimental, I finished the lamb meat udon.

 With a light kombu broth and soft, well-cooked udon, plus thickly sliced green onions and lamb meat, I have to say, it turned out perfect.

 ”Hey, Toa, can you eat this? Blow on it.”

 ”Geez, Aqua, I can eat by myself, you know?”

 Is that so? I hand Toa the chopsticks.

 Wait, whoa!? The camera is so close!

 You don’t need to get that close; there’s a zoom function, right?!

 I mean, I didn’t even notice you were there…. You were hiding like a ninja!

 ”Aqua, thanks. Yawn~ I’m getting a bit sleepy again.”

 ”Go ahead and sleep. I’ll clean up and then call Tenga-senpai and the others, so just call me if anything happens.”

 ”Okay.”

 When I go back to the kitchen to return the dishes, I see all the hotel staff slurping my meat udon while crying.

 Wow, they’re so happy about the meat udon, it makes me really happy too….

 I say my thanks and quietly leave the place to call Shintaro.

 Tenga-senpai might be driving, and if he is, he can’t answer his phone.

 ’Shintaro, how’s it going over there?’

 ’Things are going well here. We cleared the mission, and we’ll be back around 7 or 8.’

 Then let’s eat together around that time.

 ’Okay, I’ll wander around a bit until everyone gets back.’

 ’O-Okay.’

 I tell Toa I’m going out and step outside the hotel.

 There, I run into someone unexpected.

 ”Hey? Aqua-sama, what are you doing here?”

 ”Uh, Fran-chan?”

 Fran-chan shows me her sharp teeth with a big smile.
