Unspeakable bubbles

"Bubble, come out for a moment," Wallis waved to the little girl from the doorway.

"coming."

Bubble ran to the door, "What is it, teacher?"

"Someone is looking for you. Come with me."

Wallis led Bubble to the office, glanced at the two men and one woman inside, and then gently nudged the little girl.

"You two continue your conversation, I'll head out now."

“Hey, Uncle Jack, and…” Bubble turned to the unfamiliar young woman: “Hello, sister I don’t know.”

"Is she Bubble?" Masumi was clearly pleasantly surprised.

"I have good taste, don't I?"

Jack waved to Bubble, "Bubble, come sit down."

"Eat some oranges first."

He smiled warmly at the person and said, "Bubble, I called you here today because I have some good news to tell you."

"good news?"

"Hmm, Bubble, you grew up in an orphanage, right?"

Seeing the little girl nod, he softened his tone and said, "I know you used to have an older sister, but she's gone now."

"Bubble, do you want a new older sister?"

The little girl's eyes widened suddenly, but she didn't say anything.

"Bubble, it's me, Masumi."

Hirano Masumi said somewhat reservedly, "If, if you're willing, I'll be your older sister from now on."

"..."

"Well, actually it's like this."

Seeing that the scene was a bit awkward, he coughed and said, "Bubble, you should know that there are kind adults who would adopt children like you when you were in the orphanage."

"What this older sister means is that if Bubble is willing, she will adopt you and become your guardian."

The three adults waited quietly for Bubble's answer, while the little girl lowered her head, as if she was thinking about something.

"Ma-Masumi"

"Ok!"

"Because Bubble's only sister is Sasha, Bubble can't call you sister."

Masumi's expression immediately darkened, but then the little girl continued, "But, but it's okay to call her 'Masumi-neechan'."

Bubble looked at her hesitantly: "Can I call you Masumi-neechan?"

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's not a problem at all."

Masumi repeated it several times until Jack couldn't stand it anymore and quietly tugged at her hand, which stopped her.

"So, Bubble, you've agreed?"

“Good children will be adopted by kind people, and Bubble is a good child, so,”

The little girl stood up and bowed to Masumi: "I'll be relying on you to take care of Bubble from now on!"

Section 125, Chapter 124: The Black Sea

"Is something good happening?" Kotono noticed that Bubbles seemed unusually happy today.

“A kind older sister wants to adopt Bubble.”

The little girl's big eyes were filled with joy, "From now on, Bubble will have its own home!"

"family......"

Kotono looked longingly at her mother. "I really want to see Mother soon."

"It's already afternoon, and if we wait any longer it will be time for school to end."

"It's a pity that I can't see my mother even after school."

Kotono regained her usual expression. "We're not ready yet. Going to see Mother like this will disappoint her."

Seeing that Bubbles was completely confused, Kotono changed the subject: "Do you really like that older sister?"

"We only met yesterday, and Bubble thinks Masumi-neechan is a good person."

"Oh?"

Kotono noticed that Bubbles didn't say she liked the older sister, but only that she was a good person.

Does it matter whether I like it or not, as long as they are good people?

She was a little puzzled, but it was ultimately Bubble's private matter, so Kotono didn't ask any further.

"Alright, let's begin today's training."

At Kotono's command, all the students in the class gathered around Bubble.

"Bubble, what you need to do next is to convey what you want to say to them through your eyes."

"Let me demonstrate."

Kotono stared at the bubbles for a while, then asked, "So, did you receive my message?"

"Uh, no, nothing."

"I'll do it one more time, Bubble, pay attention!"

stare......

"How about it?"

"Kotono, it still doesn't work."

“Strange, I could have done it with them.”

Kotono turned her head in confusion, and her eyes met those of a boy. Soon the boy returned to his seat.

"Look, like this."

“I didn’t say anything, but I conveyed the message ‘go back to your seat’ through my eyes.”

"Bubble should try it too!"

The little girl imitated Kotono, widening her eyes at the classmate next to her.

"........"

After staring at each other for a few minutes, Bubble gave up on the attempt.

"This is so difficult."

"Bubble, don't be discouraged, take it slow."

Kotono had a lot of confidence in the little girl, and she comforted her, saying, "You haven't had these eyes for very long, and you'll have to figure out all your abilities little by little."

"Let's try again."

“Look into his eyes.”

"Recite what you are thinking a few times."

"Well done, Bubble, you've already gotten the hang of it."

"I'll demonstrate again."

Wallis walked into the classroom and was greeted by a bizarre scene.

The classmates all surrounded the new girl, while Bubble would occasionally stare blankly at one of them.

No one spoke, except for the little girl who occasionally looked thoughtful.

Wallis stared at it for a while but couldn't figure it out, so he coughed and said, "Ahem, class is about to start. You can play any weird games after class."

Seeing that the students obediently returned to their seats, Wallis nodded in satisfaction.

Although the children in this class are difficult to communicate with, they all respect their teacher.

"Let's talk about the Black Sea today."

Wallis turned on the projector, and a black ocean appeared on the screen.

"The Black Sea, also known as the Dead Sea, is a forbidden zone for humanity, born at the end of the Dark Ages."

"Ok?"

Wallis saw Bubble raise his hand and said, "Bubble, is there a problem?"

"Teacher, what is the Dark Ages?"

"The Dark Ages... Alright, then let's start from the beginning, teacher."

Thinking that the little girl might know nothing about real history, Wallis started with the most basics.

"About three hundred years ago, human civilization had developed to an extremely high level, and was only one step away from becoming an 'interstellar civilization'."

"Unfortunately, at that time, the great calamity—the Chaos Sea—descended."

"Countless chaotic creatures advanced from the sky, the ocean, and the land, catching the humans of Earth completely off guard."

"Fortunately, we had alien friends who helped us during our most difficult time."

"what?"

Bubble was extremely surprised and couldn't help but exclaim, "An alien friend?"

"That's right, is there a problem?"

“But, but that’s not what Ms. Eve said before.”

Wallis chuckled dismissively. "The true history isn't something everyone can accept. Bubble, what you learned before was just the 'popular version'."
