Although Japan is small, it is not that small, right?
......
The warm afternoon sun shone through the gap in the roof.
It fell on the flawless petals and the girl's dazzling golden hair.
The girl standing next to the flowers has an overwhelmingly beautiful face that is breathtaking and has a beauty that is unattainable by humans, but there is always an lingering melancholy on her face.
When I woke up every day, what I saw were devastated ruins and rotten wooden benches.
An abandoned church located in the suburbs of Tengu City. This is where Hoshimiya Rokuko lives now. To be more precise, this is the place where she met someone and left precious memories.
The glazed glass that once painted mythological stories has turned slightly yellow, and most of the old wooden benches have long since begun to smell rotten.
Through the broken roof, you can even see the cloudless blue sky.
But Rokuko had no complaints about this dilapidated living environment. He just cleaned the church diligently day after day while preserving the original furnishings. Except for wandering around Tengu City every day looking for his sister, Rokuko stayed here almost all day.
As for physiological needs, such as eating or excretion, these are problems that can be solved by using the Sealing Master. Just seal your own metabolic cost. Just imagine that Rokuko's experience in the original work drifting in outer space for several years is enough to prove that this operation exists.
"The flowers are blooming beautifully this year, sister. Liu'er has taken good care of the flowers you planted." With a kind of indulgent tenderness in her golden eyes, Liu Kui whispered softly, holding the broom tightly in her hand.
Chapter 175: Red Lotus-like Love
A long time has passed since the successful sealing of the Seven Sins and Shidao came to an end, and Shidao has also successfully escaped from Reine's one-on-one intensive tutoring hell.
From April 10th, the day when spring break ended, Shidao was greeted by a surreal daily life full of disasters.
In addition to his studies, he also has the destroyer of the world - the elves. He made them shy by dating them, and took over the belt from the charlatan Homura Akemi to become the savior and elf king Kamen Rider Resurrectionist Takamiya.
He even became increasingly obsessed with Shiori and couldn't help himself.
Although Shidao reflected on this and realized the possible problems with his body and heart, he even went to find Reine for help, but how can I say it, when he woke up from his sleep the next day, he would always unconsciously turn into Shiori's appearance.
Shidou even seriously considered whether he should just "become" a real "girl", but the terrifying thought suddenly woke him up, and before he knew it, he had already advanced so far in the new world.
However, he always has to take Tohka and Yoshino's feelings into consideration, and as long as he uses the fake witch of the Seven Sins, he can switch freely between Shido and Shiori at any time.
"Promote relations between elves through hot spring trips?"
"That's right. After all, even if you really sealed the Seven Sins, it was probably thanks to Yoshino. And according to the AI analysis on Fraxinus, the Seven Sins' favorability towards you is only maintained at the lowest level. And contrary to you, a paramecium, her favorability towards Yoshino has exceeded the scope that the system can count - in other words, as long as Yoshino wants, she can easily reverse the degree of the other party, but that child will not do such a thing."
"More than friends?"
"We're not lovers yet...it's better to say that Nanashi has been harboring an inexplicable hostility towards you for some time."
In a brief moment before, Kotori even felt a strong desire for murder and revenge, but since this was just an emotion she felt in a trance, Kotori did not take it to heart, and simply regarded it as a strange hallucination caused by too much cultivation.
No matter what, the Seven Sins have no reason to hate Shido. Not only the Seven Sins, but also the other elves. After all, Ratatoskr is a kind organization that allows the elves to live a normal life.
As if not wanting to continue on this topic, Kotori took out the short stick of the Chupa Pearl from her mouth, then took out another one from the gorgeous box, and continued vaguely: "Well, forget it, Fraxinus will do its best to support you and the elves on this trip, so you don't have to worry about the travel budget and hotel reservations. You can take all the elves with you tomorrow, and take advantage of this rare summer vacation to go on a hot spring trip to further consolidate your relationship with them."
"Well, although I don't know why, I always feel that this statement... has a big problem." Shidao looked at Kotori with a smile and tears in his eyes. Where did he come from? Was he a scumbag with a head full of heather extract and protein mixture?
"The success or failure of the harem depends on this one move. Come on, sister... my stupid brother."
You wanted to call me sister just now, right?
That's definitely the case, right? Don't think I can't tell if you change your words in time!
However, Shidao gave up on continuing to argue with his tsundere sister, lest the other party use Shidao's dark history as a trump card. And because it was a last-minute trip, the preparations needed for the trip had to be completed overtime tonight.
Well...at least it's much easier than turning into Kamen Rider and fighting with Tanya.
After everyone else left, Kotori's sigh echoed in the air.
"A hot spring trip? I haven't been there for a long time... It's a long-awaited trip, but I can't be happy about it anyway, after all..."
Shidou no longer belongs to Kotori alone.
Kotori had prepared herself for this mentally a long time ago, dividing the love that should have belonged to her alone into more than ten parts and giving them to other people.
But you can't do otherwise.
Because Shidou is the savior who will save all the spirits, as a sister who loves him deeply, Kotori only needs to stand behind him and support him silently.
Yes... In order to take the overall situation into consideration, Kotori can completely bury her own feelings and put on the mask of a strong commander named Fraxinus, but is this really good? Ask yourself, is Gokawa Kotori satisfied with this? Can she accept everything calmly?
Flipping open the folders stacked on the table, Kotori pulled out a file with confidential information printed on it and opened the first page.
——If the spiritual power residing in Gokawa Shidao's body goes out of control, he can be abandoned and annihilated at any time.
Between the lives of one person and the lives of all the residents of Tiangong City, the overall situation is more important. Of course, the latter is more important. The minority obeys the majority. This is the unchanging truth since ancient times.
However......
A red lotus-like flame ignited from the fingertips, devouring the document completely, leaving no trace.
Kotori doesn't intend to abide by this rule. Nothing in this world is more important than the person you cherish and love. There are people who are willing to make enemies with seven billion people in the world for one person. When you are hesitant, just choose the option you think is "right". After all, there is no absolute "right" or absolute "wrong" in this world.
Lovers and the world.
This is a false proposition that cannot be established.
Recalling what a store manager said several years ago, Kotori just watched indifferently as the gray dust slipped through her fingers.
"I will do my best to avoid that possibility, but if that day really comes... I'm sorry, Mr. Woodman, but it's also a Japanese tradition to overthrow your superiors."
With her head lowered, Kotori muttered to herself in a voice that only she could hear.
......
While Flaxinus was carefully planning his date, on the other side of the city, the anti-elf unit AST, which was affiliated with the Ground Self-Defense Force, issued a unified notice of vacation.
Due to Faust's continuous pranks and harassment in the past two years, the morale of AST members was low, and many members who couldn't bear it even voluntarily applied for resignation.
In order to facilitate recruitment, the upper management selected and trained "magicians" from high school and junior high school students. Most of them were contract workers rather than the lifetime employment system of ordinary Japanese companies. Now they are about to suffer the consequences of their own actions.
In order to prevent the AST, which consists of less than ten people, from completely disbanding, resulting in a situation where there is no force capable of resisting the elves' attack, the higher-ups are training new "magicians" while trying their best to appease the few remaining people.
As the captain of AST, Ryoko Kusakabe is also the leader of this operation, but now even she can't muster any interest.
Comrades who once fought side by side have retired, some have returned to their hometowns to get married, and the rest are shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere.
The only one whose painting style was different from the others, who had a smile on her face and looked happy was Mana Takamiya, who had been transferred from DEM recently.
Did something good happen to this child?
Chapter 176 Even Kamen Rider cannot drive without a license.jpg
Sighs created mist on the window, and wet fingertips traced out an oil depot version of a small round head in the hazy mist.
"We all went to the hot springs together, but when I think about it, I don't have a similar experience."
Organizing a group of people to form gangs and go to the hot springs. Alas, this kind of extreme improvisation has nothing to do with the former Li Lin. Although she and her brother Liu Mobai look very beautiful in women's clothes, they don't have many friends. There are girls who are jealous of her because of her outstanding appearance, and boys who have bad intentions because of her overly charming appearance.
The exquisite faces given to them by their parents were a blessing but also a curse, causing others to stay away from them for various reasons, or making the two brothers resist the crowd. In the end, the only one who accompanied them through their short youth was their childhood sweetheart, Qiu Yue Lian.
But it is a pity that the girl who could understand the two brothers and did not care about their appearance had already gone ahead, bid farewell to the hustle and bustle of the world, and drifted away from them.
Li Lin's only impression of hot springs was from film and television materials, as well as the scenes he glimpsed in the fragments of Xiaoyuan's memory.
In Li Lin's opinion, the so-called hot springs are nothing more than pouring people into a pool of warm water like making dumplings, which is probably like the big bathhouses in the northern part of China, where everyone takes off their heavy or thin armor, shows their bayonets, and then talks to each other frankly without any affectation.
Because of this, Li Lin and her younger brother had never been to a bathhouse. Even now, many years later, she still remembers the troubled and headache-inducing expressions of the bathhouse aunties at that time.
Moreover, in fact, you should not wrap yourself in a towel when taking a hot spring bath. Not only will your body not be able to relax in the best way, it is also extremely impolite. However, due to the characteristics of harmony, everyone in the hot spring bathing scenes in the animations is wrapped in a towel. Well, it is not always like this. At least in the hot spring scenes of the animation Koihime Musou, there are no towels.
This time, please ask the store to prepare bath towels in advance. As long as everyone wraps themselves up properly, it will be a healthy activity like a swimming pool, a scene for all ages.
Of course, this is also to prevent a certain lily monster who refuses to change and becomes more and more courageous after repeated setbacks from causing any trouble.
——That’s right, the one Li Lin was talking about was Yuiya Miku.
Ever since she gave up the name Tsukino Aoi and became Miku, she has been on the path of becoming a yuri monster and there is no turning back. She is the type that cannot be pulled back. Recently, even Madoka seems to have given up the idea of teaching her and lets her do whatever she wants as long as she doesn't go too far.
"What are you thinking about, Lin?"
Hugging Li Lin affectionately, Xiao Yuan asked softly.
The exact reason is still unknown, but this is Xiaoyuan's habit when she is with Li Lin. According to her, she feels safe as long as she hugs Li Lin... But in the final analysis, the physical data of the two are the same, and there is no substantial difference.
"Nothing... Don't get so close to me, it's so hot. You hug me like a pillow every night when you sleep, aren't you tired of hugging me?"
Although he said this, Li Lin did not resist at all and just let Xiaoyuan hold him in her arms.
"No, no matter how much time has passed, I still feel at ease being with Lin, even in this foreign land. No, it should be said that this is a different world for us... Even though it is the same Earth, the same Japan, and even the culture and history are basically the same, this is not our hometown after all." Xiaoyuan buried her face deeply in the girl's long pink hair and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"Madoka, I understand your thoughts. We have exchanged parts of our souls, so we can feel each other's feelings even without verbal communication or physical contact. So after everything in this world is settled, let's go find my world first, and then we can go back to Mitakihara. Since Homura came from that world, her time demon should have the coordinates recorded on it."
"It's a deal, Lin."
"Ah, of course, Madoka."
This time we must make a concerted effort to achieve the final victory.
Not only for those innocent girls, but also for his own and Madoka's survival.
Moreover, the only thing she had left to worry about her past life was to go to the grave of her childhood sweetheart Qiu Yuelian to pay her respects, and then go to apologize to her younger brother. Well, she didn't know whether he would still acknowledge her as his "brother" by then. Now that she thought about it, this matter was quite delicate.
I participated in the counter-terrorism campaign to avenge my childhood sweetheart, but ended up traveling to the second dimension, and then traveling back in reverse, becoming the brother (sister) of Kamen Rider Madoka Kaname.
No matter how you look at it, it's a very enjoyable development, although it's not a very interesting experience for her.
For example, explaining the whole story and getting Mo Bai to accept that his brother has become a beautiful girl will probably take a lot of effort. Then there is also the matter of taking Xiao Yuan to meet his parents... In short, these are all troublesome things that I cannot completely rest assured about if I don't do them.
......
If we only talk about efficiency as to how to get to the hot spring hotel, Li Lin would first transform into a cobra and use super speed to rush to an unsurveilled area near the hotel, and then use a smoke gun to teleport Faust and his group directly there. Unfortunately, this "efficient" travel plan was collectively rejected by the members of Faust. Only Alan, after hesitating for a moment, bit the bullet and faced the gazes of others, and slowly raised his hand to show his support.
Excluding Nanashi who was unable to come due to matters at the Gokawa family, the remaining seven people defeated this proposal with an absolute advantage of five to two.
What's important in traveling is not the result, but the scenery along the way. If you just pursue the result blindly, it would be too boring. It's like the epiphany when playing an online game with automatic pathfinding. Since you don't need to run around anyway, why not just delete the transition map and only provide the copy area.
In addition, everyone present was a "nerd" who had hardly ever been to any other place except Tiangong City, so Li Lin's proposal was naturally impossible to pass.
"That being said, who among us... has a driver's license? A Japanese driver's license to be exact."
However, a small question raised by Li Lin instantly made the atmosphere on the scene fall to the bottom.
As much as we don't want to admit it, none of you here has obtained a driving license. Even Kamen Rider cannot drive openly without a driver's license.
For example, there was a Decade guy who made a cameo appearance as a bus driver.
Moreover, given Faust's situation, it would not be appropriate to temporarily hire an outsider as a driver. In fact, because Faust and his group were too conspicuous, Li Lin had already booked a small hot spring bath in advance to avoid being watched by passers-by and ruining his mood.
"Forget it, let's rent a bus to go there..."
With a long sigh, Li Lin turned his gaze to Erya and Artemisia.
"Oh, by the way, the money for renting the bus this time will be deducted from Al and Erya's pocket money for next month."
Huh? Why not deduct Homura Akemi's funds? Don't make a fuss, she has recently recycled a lot of garbage and is selling toys at the Tiangong City Square. As for Allen... Li Lin didn't give her a salary or pocket money at all. How could a stingy and scumbag store manager like her pay Allen? You're overthinking.
"Forget it! I'm still preparing to open packs for Ming O Ark and Beng O III!"
"Yes, Manager. My wives are still waiting for me to spend money to fish them out of the cold pool and trim the fantasy tree. Be a human being, Manager!"
In an instant, the otaku Nia and Artemisia, who was persuaded by Madoka to become an otaku, cried out for their wallets.
"You guys, I've told you many times, don't spend too much money. You have such a strong African ancestry, why can't you accept reality? Besides, you can just use your angels to manipulate the results, and then use the free chances to get it for free... Why do you have to spend money to draw?! It's common sense for elves to use their angels to make things convenient for themselves, right?!"
Chapter 177: Even if he disappears, the store manager Ishido still influences the world
With lightning speed.
The dust from the driveway and the occasional leaf that fell upon it were blown away by the rush of the wind.
It was a scene that seemed to transcend the boundaries of time and space, and was far beyond the dynamic vision of the human eye.
On this wide driveway in the suburbs.
A bus flew very low and flashed by.
