Miki, wearing a white yukata, waved and greeted Yukinoshita Yukino generously and neatly, and Yukinoshita Yukino nodded slightly in response. The two people on the side still had an expression of "Why is it you?" Kanda Osamu and Daimon Dai never expected to meet each other here.
"I said, why didn't you invite me when you came out to play?"
Kanda Osamu couldn't help but laugh at the question coming from Daimon Dai.
"Isn't it the same with you?"
He couldn't explain why he didn't inform the other party to come out and play together, because it was not until he saw Daimon Dai that Kanda Shu realized that he had never planned to do so from the beginning.
Tsk, how could you disturb my rare rest time with the minister?
"I was called out by Miki, which is different from you."
Damen looked at him suspiciously, he sensed something strange about his good friend.
But Kanda Osamu, who had calmed down, looked calm and showed no sign of panic at all.
Amid the passing crowd, the two of them just stood there in a stalemate in front of the stall. Kanda Osamu didn't really want to be like this with Daimon Dai, but he really couldn't come up with any good excuses to fool the other party.
After Mikihara Noren bought the snacks, she turned around and looked at the two people who were still in a stalemate.
"So, do you want to continue like this until the end of the party?" She raised her lips and deepened her teasing smile. She saw Kanda Osamu's embarrassment, so she proposed to Yukinoshita Yukino, "How about we go watch the fireworks together first?"
With a faint "Okay", Yukinoshita Yukino understood what she meant, and turned around and left, leaving Kanda Osamu standing there in a daze.
"Damn it, let's not talk about this for now."
Seeing that his minister had already walked away, Kanda Osamu finally spoke, his voice sounding somewhat helpless and resentful. After leaving these words, he took big strides to catch up with Yukinoshita Yukino in front of him.
With a "tsk" sound, Daimon curled his lips in disdain and followed Mikihara Noren leisurely.
It was almost half past seven, the sky above was completely dyed with night, and pedestrians on the road were moving towards the coast in an orderly manner. After passing through the crowded crowd, Kanda Osamu and his group of four finally successfully arrived at their destination.
"I should be able to see clearly from here, right?" Kanda Osamu muttered to himself.
Yukinoshita Yukino beside her didn't say anything, but unlike usual, there was a slight smile on her cold face.
"Let's go over there and watch the fireworks."
Mikihara Noren patted Daimondai's shoulder, as if reminding someone.
"……All right."
Daimon shrugged helplessly and walked to the other side with Miki.
In the end, only Kanda Osamu and Yukinoshita Yukino were left in this place.
"It should be starting soon." Kanda Osamu glanced at the time, then turned his head and asked Yukinoshita: "Buyer, is this your first time watching fireworks here?"
"Well, where's Kanda-kun?"
"Of course this isn't my first time here."
Kanda Osamu stared at her with a smile in his eyes: "But I..."
The pitch-black curtain was illuminated by fireworks all over the sky. The gorgeous fireworks burst into colorful flames in the air. Amid the noisy roar, Yukinoshita Yukino did not hear clearly what Kanda Osamu said. She turned her head, and the faint light of the fire shone on Kanda Osamu's body.
In order to hear what he said, the girl's figure flickered under the sparkling fireworks. The sea breeze gently blew through her bund-up black hair, taking away the worries in her heart.
The noisy roar of fireworks seemed to quiet down at this moment, and the girl closed the distance between her and the boy. Even though Kanda Osamu had stopped talking, she still made this gesture.
Of course, Kanda Osamu could also see the confusion on Yukinoshita's face at this moment, but he had no intention of speaking again. He shook his head slightly at the girl, and the boy named Kanda Osamu withdrew his gaze.
Feeling the weak force coming from the cuffs, Kanda Osamu breathed steadily and tried his best not to let his hands shake. Perhaps just a slight shake would break the connection between the two of them.
The spots of light in the sky flashed and disappeared like shooting stars.
……
Essentially, summer fireworks displays represent people saying goodbye to the short summer nights and moving on to the next new stage.
People are curious and looking forward to what new developments will happen in the upcoming next stage.
After the fireworks show.
Kanda Osamu no longer saw the figures of Daimon Yamato and Mikihara Noren.
Considering the time issue, he did not wait any longer and took Yukinoshita Yukino back to his home.
"Minister, how do you feel?"
Yukinoshita Yukino raised her head. From her perspective at that moment, the boy's slightly raised mouth corners seemed as if he was waiting for someone's praise.
The girl couldn't help but let out a teasing smile as she thought of this.
"Very good. Thank you for today, Sleepy-kun."
This long-lost strange name made the smiling Kanda Osamu slightly stunned. After a moment, he smiled silently, reached out to take off the baseball cap that concealed Yukinoshita Yukino's identity, took out the Tyrannosaurus Rex in his hand and pointed it at the computer.
The light symbolizing the network channel flashed again in front of the table, taking the two of them from the study back to the room in the Yukinoshita mansion.
After a short pause, the two observed the layout of the room and found that it was no different from when they left, and they both breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems that my mother didn't find out."
Yukinoshita Yukino said with a sigh, Kanda Osamu turned his head and looked at the girl's ice-blue eyes, which were like the white snowflakes that only appear in winter.
For a moment, his heart seemed to be captured by these magical eyes.
…It’s time to say goodbye.
He suppressed the throbbing in his heart, coughed lightly twice, and a faint smile appeared on Kanda's face with a slight blush.
"Well then...see you at the beginning of school, Yukinoshita."
The light gradually flickered, and a special force sucked him into the network channel again.
Yukinoshita Yukino watched Kanda Osamu leave with a slight smile on her lips.
"See you at the beginning of school, Kanda-kun."
Paradise Lost
Chapter 1 A New Semester
The late summer heat was surging outside the window, and the sky was just beginning to glow under the sunrise.
Many workers have appeared on the streets early. Most of them are busy working, raising their hands from time to time to check the time.
Kanda Shuuji sat cross-legged on the bed. His tired eyes suggested that he stayed up late again last night. He couldn't help yawning.
The leisurely summer vacation life did not last long, and Anzi Murumi brought him a pile of unprocessed documents. Kanda Osamu processed these documents while drinking delicious coffee.
Although it was still early, he was not ready to go to bed.
Today is the first day of school at Sobu High School, and Kanda Osamu has to force himself to go out to school.
When everything was ready, there was a series of knocks on the door.
Damen was already waiting outside the door. He always had a regular life and looked quite energetic at this moment.
"Good morning, Gate."
Opening the door, Kanda Osamu greeted casually, then turned back to the sofa.
"What are you going to eat for lunch?"
Daimon walked in briskly and without any sign of restraint, as he knew that Kanda lived alone.
"I haven't thought about it yet. I guess I'm going to eat some bread. Why do you ask?"
Kanda glanced at his friend.
Normally, neither of them likes to bring lunch boxes to school, so at mealtimes they usually go to the canteen to buy bread.
Daimon shook his head and took out two bento boxes from his bag.
"The start of school should be a new beginning. You are in for a treat today. There are delicious fried eggs in here."
"Bento? Why did you bring this today? Two servings at that."
"I didn't want to carry it because it was forced into my bag."
Daimon said viciously.
"But my mother knew that you and I usually eat bread, so she prepared one for you."
"That's a great help, thank you very much."
Kanda Osamu clasped his hands together. In his current condition, he didn't really want to snatch bread from others.
"Stop talking nonsense. Today is the first day of school. Hurry up and get ready for school."
Seeing that Kanda was not getting enough sleep again and worried that he might fall asleep on the sofa, Daimon patted him on the shoulder, then opened the door and walked out.
……
"Kanda, you dared to doze off in my class, you are quite courageous!"
Suddenly, even though I was asleep, I could hear Hiratsuka-sensei's powerful voice.
"Teacher, please keep your voice down. You are disturbing me."
After responding casually, Kanda Osamu turned around and continued to rest.
It was not until the steel-like fist hit his head and stars appeared in his eyes that he realized he was not dreaming.
"Come to my office after school."
After seeing that the student had completely come to his senses after answering this question, Shizuka Hiratsuka returned to the podium after leaving these words.
The first class of Class 2 J was taught by Shizuka Hiratsuka as a substitute teacher, while Daigo Nishijima, who was supposed to teach them, took a half-month vacation from Sobu High School.
Everything about Digimon and the Digital World never appeared again after the Angry Demon King was destroyed, as if there had never been any Digital monsters in this world.
In Kanda Osamu's opinion, Nishijima Daigo's request for leave was a very normal thing. After all, so much time had passed, and DATS should have been ready to go to the digital world and have a deeper communication with those network creatures.
Unfortunately, after Daigo Nishijima left, he had to undergo fifteen days of devilish teaching from the "Invincible Iron Fist" teacher Shizuka Hiratsuka.
"Kanda-kun, did Mr. Nishijima ask for leave because of those things?"
After class, Yukinoshita Yukino, who was sitting in front of him, asked directly.
"… Minister, why are you still concerned about these things?"
Rubbing the aching back of his head, Kanda Osamu answered casually while lying on the table.
"It should be related to Digimon, but I don't know what it is specifically."
He really didn't know what progress DATS had made in the digital world at present, but he guessed that Daigo Nishijima should have already gone to the digital world.
To be honest, he still hasn't figured out what the [Devourer] is and where it came from. He just hopes that the DATS people can gain something from the digital world this time.
"Heidi Lu Beast asked me to ask you when it can go back."
"Let's wait until Mr. Nishijima comes back. We should be able to release it then."
Kanda Osamu replied.
This time is not too long. By the time the DATS advance team returns to the human world, the communication between the two worlds should be more stable.
Of course, all this is based on their ability to successfully establish a connection with that cyber world. Once the advance team does something extraordinary, humans will face an entire world of digital monsters.
Thinking of the countries that exist in the game, Kanda Shu narrowed his eyes slightly and thought about this exchange activity.
I just hope that Rentaro Satsuma can be smarter and look forward to the other members of DATS.
……
Digital world, steel empire.
Strictly speaking, the various areas where Digimon live in the Digital World are not considered a country. Digimon are more accustomed to calling them "adaptive areas."
And this area, as the name suggests, is the first "adaptation area" for DATS to communicate friendly with the digital world.
The ecological environment of the Iron Empire is quite harsh. Digimon that are not related to machinery are basically unseen in this area. This is an empire based on machinery, and the Digimon living here take pride in mechanization.
"So, who should we go to now?"
"Someone will take you to see it soon. You can wait for a while."
