The Shrine

After a day of preparation, Yami and Shun were outside the branch building and were ready to go.

"Where are you two going?" Liqin stated while eating fries. He was sitting on the bench outside to relax.

"Senior Liqin!" Shun exclaimed. They didn't realize that Liqin was outdoors since they were focused on their map.

"We plan to have some fun time together," Yami explained with a smile. He tried to avoid their real intent, but he knew they couldn't lie to Liqin.

"Where?" Liqin asked in curiosity since that perked his attention.

"Oh," Shun looked at Yami and slowly hid the map behind his back. "We actually planned to go hiking."

"But don't you have Combatant work in the base?" Liqin asked and went towards them and leaned forward with a playful look.

"I— ugh..." Shun stuttered, and his vision was waving when Liqin stared into his eyes.

Yami, looking at them, laughed at how Shun had a hard time lying while Liqin teased him about it.
