Gun-Ho drank a cup of water before going back to bed . The air in the room was cold, maybe because he let the air conditioner run overnight . When he went back to the bed, he drew Mori Aikko close to him to feel her warm body . Mori Aikko groped Gun-Ho's chest with her adorable hand while still sleeping . Gun-Ho fell asleep again holding Mori Aikko tightly .
Gun-Ho woke up again to the sound of his smartphone's ring . It was GH Mobile's President Song . Gun-Ho answered the phone on the bed while still holding Mori Aikko .
"The contract is signed and notarized at the notary office in front of the Daejeon District Court's branch in Seosan City . I went there with A Electronics' staff . "
"Very well done . "
"I will leave the notarized contract with the accounting director so you could review it when you return to the office . "
"Sounds good . "
"Also, we finished making the sample products using the product drawings that we received from A Electronics' research center in Suwon City, and we just completed the third test on them . "
"Oh, you did?"
"Our chief officer of the research center will bring the sample products to A Electronics' research center in Suwon City this afternoon after lunch . "
"Really?"
"I will keep you updated . "
"Good . Thank you . "
After getting off the phone with President Song, Gun-Ho searched the major bank's account number, that GH Mobile had been working with, stored in his smartphone . He then sent a text message to A Electronics' CEO right away .

[I'm sending you GH Mobile's major bank's account number . Once we receive the funds of 750 million won to be used to increase our company's capital, from you, we will start the process . ]
Gun-Ho then made a call to the accounting director— Ms . Min-Hwa Kim .
"It's me . "
"Yes, sir . "
"President Song will bring you the notarized supply contract with A Electronics . Please keep it with you . "
"Yes, sir . "
"Also, expect to receive 750 million won in our company's bank account from someone . The funds will be used to increase our capital . Please let me know once the funds are received . "
"For the purpose of increasing the company's capital? Okay, sir, I will do that . "
After getting off the phone, Gun-Ho started groping Mori Aikko who was lying next to him .
Gun-Ho looked at his watch .
"Shoot! It's almost noon . "
Gun-Ho and Mori Aikko had lunch at the buffet restaurant inside the hotel, and then they had afternoon coffee later . While having a cup of coffee, Mori Aikko was sitting at the table facing Gun-Ho . When their eyes met, Mori Aikko smiled . At that moment, Mori Aikko's cell phone started ringing .
"Oh, Mamsan . "

Gun-Ho knew it was from Mamsan Segawa Joonkko since Mori Aikko uttered her name without even asking who it was . She probably recognized her number .
Mamsan asked Mori Aikko over the phone, "You didn't go to Sapporo City for your summer vacation, did you?"
"No, I didn't . "
"Someone told me that you were at the Keio Plaza Hotel . Is it true? Who have you been with?"
"I'm with my sponsor— President Goo . "
"Oh, really? Then, it's all good . I feel relieved now . "
Segawa Joonkko was extremely protective of Mori Aikko, especially with other men . The worst scenario that she had been trying to avoid was that Mori Aikko would run away with another man or start living with a man, and miss her work schedule like participating in a dance performance . In order to fully retrieve the funds that she invested in a geisha, she needed the geisha to work for her at least until the geisha turned at least 30 years old . She didn't worry about their relationship with a sponsor though . Sponsors—usually married men with enough financial capability, and most of them were gentlemen enough not to live with a geisha without getting an approval from Mamsan . Mamsan sometimes encouraged her geishas to keep in frequent contact with their sponsors so they could be financially supported by the sponsor .
When Mori Aikko got off the phone with Mamsan, Gun-Ho asked, "Was it Mamsan?"
"Yes . She was asking if I didn't go to Sapporo City . "
"Oh, that's right . How's your grandmother in Sapporo City? Is she well now? I remember that she underwent surgery . I know you sent me a text saying she was fine, but I just want to make it sure . "
"Yes, she is doing a lot better these days . "
"You were going to spend some time in Sapporo City for your summer vacation . Is there a good vacation spot there?"
"It's not a vacation spot, but I wanted to go to Otaru City and take a walk along the canal there . "
"A canal in Otaru City?"
"Yes . "
After saying about her original plan for her summer vacation in Otaru, Mori Aikko looked out the window . She seemed to reminisce about something .
"It's summer . Why would you want to take a walk along a canal in this hot weather?"
"That's the last place where I had been with my mom and dad . "
"Hmm, really?"
"My dad was a teacher in Otaru City . "
"I thought you used to live in Sapporo City . "
"That's true . My family lived in Sapporo City, and my dad rented a studio apartment in Otaru City and stayed there during weekdays . My dad came back to Sapporo City to spend time with us during weekends, and sometimes my mom and I went to Otaru and stayed with my dad . There is a street called Otaru Sushi Street . You can find a lot of good sushi shops there . It's a very popular area . I wanted to visit the place again that I used to go with my mom and dad . "
Gun-Ho recalled a drawing among other pictures and postcards hanging on the wall in Mori Aikko's room in the condo in Daikanyama . Most of them were about her dance performance, and Mori Aikko was wearing Kimono in them except one . There was one sketchy drawing which was probably done by Mori Aikko herself . In that drawing, a young couple was walking along a canal with a little girl who was holding their hands standing in the middle .
"Hmm, I see,"
Gun-Ho felt sorry after hearing Mori Aikko's reason why she wanted to spend her summer vacation in Sapporo City . He felt like he deprived her of precious time .
"Is Otaru far from Sapporo City?"
"No, it's not . It takes around 50 minutes by bus . "
"How many more days of your summer vacation are left?"
"I have three more days . "
"I will buy you a flight ticket for Sapporo City . I want you to spend the rest of your vacation as you originally planned . It would be nice if I could go with you, but I have to return to Korea to take care of my business . "
"It's okay . I will just stay in Tokyo this year's vacation . "
"What are you going to do after I leave? You have three days alone here . "
"I can stay home reading cartoon books and take a rest . "
Mori Aikko laughed innocently .
Gun-Ho and Mori Aikko went to the swimming pool again . Since they had to check out from the hotel the next day, they wanted to make the most of it .
"Let's spend some time in the swimming pool until the temperature cools down a bit . Maybe after three hours, we will go out shopping . "
"Sounds good . "
Gun-Ho and Mori Aikko had fun playing in the pool . They sometimes took a break while lying down on a folding sunbed after applying sunblock lotions on their bodies which make them look shiny . After taking a brief nap on the sunbed, they went into the swimming pool again . Whenever Mori Aikko moved, the people stared at her . Even small children couldn't resist looking at her . She was obviously the most beautiful girl in the hotel's swimming pool .
