This is not the date I wanted.

As Mengyue whispered, a dark blue longbow appeared in Mengyue's hand accompanied by lightning.

"Sister Mengyue? What are you going to do?"

Seeing Mengyue suddenly unfolding an angel, Qinli couldn't help but feel flustered.

"Don't worry, Kotori. I'm fine. I just want to try and see if I can analyze these spiritual waves to find out who they belong to."

After hearing Meng Yue's words, Ling Yin suddenly realized something.

"Well... this is a blind spot... With Ratziel's (Dawn Sage) computing power that exceeds the current level of technology... it is not impossible to do this."

"That's it."

Kotori breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little relieved.

"Don't scare me, Sister Mengyue. I thought your spiritual power suddenly went backwards."

"Haha~ Sorry."

"It's okay, thank you for your help then."

Nodding slightly, Mengyue began to command the Dawn Sage according to her own ideas.

[Understood... Mission execution has begun... Spiritual wave separation is in progress. ]

As dark blue light flashed, the bowstring of the Sage of the Dawn spread out into several thin filaments like wires and connected to Fraxinus' computer.

"How about it?"

Kotori couldn't help but ask nervously.

"can."

Meng Yue answered affirmatively.

Just as Lingyin said, the reason why this data is difficult to analyze is that the information itself is vague and Kotori's spiritual power at that time was mixed with the spiritual power of other spirits and could not be identified. For modern technology, it is as difficult as judging the color of the clothes worn by the characters in an early black-and-white photo. However, for the miracle of the spirits that surpass human common sense, they can accurately complete the ambiguous parts of the data by inferring the previous and next parts.

The time was not short, but not long either. In about ten minutes, the Sage of Dawn analyzed the translated spiritual wave data and completed the comparison with the elf information in the database.

[Analysis completed, comparison successful. Object 1 - Efreet (Flame Demon)]

[Analysis completed, comparison successful. Object 2 - Phantom]

Seeing this, no one was surprised. Kotori was transformed into an elf by the spirit crystal given by Phantom. It was natural that Kotori's spirit waves were present. Although there was no spirit power data of Phantom in the official database, Meng Yue, who had met Phantom once, had used the Dawn Sage to detect Phantom. The spirit waves decomposed were also mixed with a very small amount of the reaction that blocked Meng Yue from detecting the high concentration of spirit power wall at that time.

[Analysis completed, comparison successful. Subject 3 - Nightmare]

"Tokisaki Kurumi..."

Mengyue and Qinli couldn't help but widen their eyes.

If the two pieces of information just now were within expectations, then this one is really the jackpot.

"Could it be that she was the one who killed Origami's parents?"

"I'm not sure yet. But Reiha's reaction was near Nankou Town, and Origami's parents also died in this area."

Meng Yue frowned slightly. Compared to Kotori and Phantom, Kuang San is indeed a spirit with a history of murder, and she happened to appear at the scene of the crime. It is indeed more likely that Kuang San is the murderer of Origami's parents.

(But, I feel like something is wrong...)

Meng Yue knew that although Kuang San was indeed a murderer, she was definitely not a murderer. The parents that Origami loved from the bottom of her heart and seemed determined to avenge them could not be bad people. Logically speaking, there was no need for Kuang San to kill them.

[Parsing completed, comparison failed, object 4 - not logged in to the wizard. ]

Then, just as Mengyue was thinking about this, the Sage of Dawn discovered the fourth elf who had not been noticed by anyone five years ago.

01 Perhaps we have returned to a peaceful daily life (Part )

==============================

July 11, 7:11 pm.

At this time, most people had fallen into a deep sleep, but Gokawa Shido was in the computer world inside Fraxinus, undergoing the training arranged for him by Meng Yue.

"Okay. Let's stop here for now."

"Ha ha--"

After hearing Meng Yue's words, Shidao took a long breath and sat down on the concrete floor exhausted. The Hurricane Knight in his hands and the Sage of Dawn fixed on his wrists turned into particles of light and dissipated in the air.

"How's it going Shidou, can you still stand up?"

Meng Yue squatted beside Shidao and said with a smirk on her face.

"How is that possible... I'm exhausted in every sense of the word."

After complaining weakly, Shidao moved his body, leaned his back against the fence of the ruined street, wiped the dust and sweat from his face, and looked very embarrassed.

The training was different from the last time he entered the computer world. This time, Meng Yue brought Shidao into the computer world. In addition to helping Shidao get familiar with the abilities of the Seven Sins that had just been sealed and the control of spiritual power, she also added a new training topic - escape and protection.

From the sudden attack of the DEM magician, to the space shock caused by the arrival of the elves, AST mistaking Shido for an elf and launching an attack, to even natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods, Mengyue asked Huoshou Maruna and Maria to simulate a variety of possible emergency scenarios, requiring Shido to complete the task of protecting the elves or escaping himself in these crises.

Shidou had to admit that he underestimated this training at first.

The problem cannot be solved simply by using angels to repel the enemy. The scale of the disaster, the number of enemies, the environment you are in, the conditions of the people around you, and various other conditions have placed significant restrictions on the selection and use of angels. If you act without thinking, you will end up in an even worse desperate situation.

For example, when he used the Burning Demon Slayer to stop the magician, he did not notice that there was a flammable material in the next room, which caused a large explosion. When he used the Killing King, his attack accidentally destroyed the surrounding buildings, and the ruins fell on the fleeing spirits. Various unexpected situations made Shidou suffer a lot during training.

Just like just now, because he took Shiono to find the lost Shiono, he fell into the enemy's trap and was surrounded by a large number of drones loaded with detonation rituals in a sealed space. If this happened in reality, it would be a huge crisis that would not be laughable at all.

Although he managed to break out safely with the simulated bodies of "Yoshino and Yoshina" with the help of Hurricane Knight and Ice Puppet, it must be said that the sense of crisis and tension that was almost no different from reality also pushed Shidao's spirit to the limit.

"Hehe, of course. If you think you can get used to my training after going through the previous basic training, then you are too naive."

Meng Yue said with a smug smirk on her face. She pulled Shidao up from the ground and looked at the training materials of the past few days.

"Although there were a few failed scenes, but in the end, he managed to escape successfully. It seems that his reaction and adaptability have improved. How do you feel about it, Shidao?"

“It’s terrible.”

Gokawa Shido's face was full of bitterness.

The requirement of this training is not a matter of how many times you succeed, but that if you fail just once, it means you have completely failed.

Honestly, even though he knew that these crises were merely hypotheses simulated by electronic data, and even though he was aware that the spirits he was supposed to protect were not himself, Shidou would feel extremely distressed and uncomfortable when he watched Tohka and the others fall into crisis or even lose their lives because of his own misjudgment.

Shidou couldn't imagine what he would become if these things really happened in reality.

"Very good answer. If you get complacent about this, I will consider giving you a slap in the face to wake you up."

Hearing Shidou's attitude, Mengyue nodded with satisfaction, tapped his forehead with her fingers and said.

"Well, having said that, you shouldn't dwell on it too much. After all, this is just a mock exercise at best. The important thing is to learn from it and understand what you did wrong and what you should do."

"Yeah...that's true."

Shidou nodded, adjusted his mood a little, and asked Mengyue.

"By the way, Meng Yue, I heard that you suddenly went to find Qin Li and said you wanted to check something. How did it turn out?"

Hearing Shidou's question, Mengyue showed a complicated expression. She scratched her long hair as if she was considering something, and spoke after a moment.

"Well... never mind. I was planning to tell you sometime anyway. Since you asked, I'll tell you."

"??"

Next, Meng Yue told Shidao that she had used the data from DEM Company to investigate the information about four elves that appeared in the fire five years ago.

Hearing this shocking news, Shidou opened his mouth unconsciously and didn't know what to say for a moment.

After a long time, Shidao finally recovered and asked Mengyue in confusion.

"…So, Mengyue, do you think it was Kurumi or that unregistered Pokémon who killed Origami's parents?"

"Well, I just found out who was there, but I don't know who killed him. If you want to analyze it objectively, I think the four elves, including Kotori-chan, are full of suspicions."

Meng Yue shrugged and replied calmly.

"If we consider it as a malicious murder, then obviously Kurumi, who has a history of murder, is undoubtedly the biggest suspect. But in fact, I don't see Kurumi's motive for murder, nor do I find any concrete evidence. Considering the scale of the fire and the chaos among the people at the time, I think the possibility that Origami's parents died in an accident is the highest."

Shidou asked in surprise.

"Meng Yue, are you saying that the death of Origami's parents was a complete accident, and that the elf killing his own parents was just Origami's own misunderstanding?"

Mengyue shook her head.

"It shouldn't be, since Origami is so sure that it was the spirit. Even if it wasn't the one who did it directly, it must have been involved. If Origami's parents were killed by the spirit's unintentional power, then all four of them are suspects, and it's even possible that all four of them are the murderer."

After all, there is still not enough information. Meng Yue couldn't help but sigh helplessly in her heart.

It's really hard to investigate what happened five years ago. The crime scene had long been renovated and rebuilt in the center of a space earthquake. Kotori's memory of that time is very vague. The phantoms have been coming and going without a trace, and the unlogged elves have not appeared at all except after the fire. Trying to find the truth from such a lack of clues is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"I wanted to tell you after the investigation was more thorough. I'm sorry, but I didn't prove Kotori-chan's innocence, and instead made things even more confusing."

"That's not true. Although it's a pity that I didn't know the truth, I'm very happy that you can tell me this, Mengyue."

Shidou quickly waved his hand to express his gratitude to Mengyue.

"Really? That's good. Then, I'm going to ask you a more serious question, Shidou."

"what?"

Meng Yue's sudden serious tone made Shidao unconsciously nervous.

"Now that you know this, what are you going to do? Are you going to help Origami?"

"..."

After hearing Meng Yue's words, Shidao was speechless for a long time before he let out a breath with a bitter smile on his face.

"It's still the same as always. The questions you ask are always to the point, Mengyue."

"If you don't think this problem through, you won't be the only one in trouble, Shidao."

Meng Yue spread her hands and said lightly.

"Now Origami is not only an infatuated Amazon warrior who responds to your requests, but also an enemy of us elves."

"I know."

Gritting his teeth slightly, Gokawa Shidao looked up at the sky and spoke slowly.

"Sorry... Mengyue, let me think about this for a while."

Mengyue obviously had no intention of forcing Shidao any further, and nodded in understanding.

"I understand. Then let's stop here for this training. We still need to prepare breakfast and lunch boxes for everyone tomorrow. Well, good night, Shidao."

"Well, good night Mengyue."

————————————————I am the dividing line for the arrival of the second day————————————————

"Hmm...it's morning already."

Feeling the sunlight from the real world shining through the window onto his cheeks, Shidou opened his eyes dazedly.

"What should I do..."

Covering his eyes with his hands, Shidou murmured in confusion.

After coming back last night, Shidao didn't suffer from insomnia, but to be honest, he didn't sleep very well either.

Just like Meng Yue said, even if we know the truth of five years ago, what's the point? The fact that Origami's parents were killed by the elves will not change at all, and the reality that Origami joined DEM to avenge the elves will not change at all.

Do you want to help Origami? The answer to this question is yes, but it is just wishful thinking. But in fact, Origami is not a fairy, and from this point of view, Fraxinus has no need to help him.

Maybe under his request, Qinli would cater to his willfulness to help him. But this also means that he is likely to indulge Origami and give her a chance for revenge, putting Tohka and the others in danger.

Moreover, Origami herself had no idea what she was thinking.

"Forget it... Don't think about it for now. Yoshi——Go and prepare breakfast for everyone!"

After patting his cheeks to encourage himself, Shidou cheered himself up and prepared to get up and prepare breakfast for everyone.

Puniu——

Suddenly, a special effect sound with a soft touch like jelly came from the sheets, and Shidou, who was originally full of energy, froze instantly.

Come to think of it, I've been smelling a nice floral scent coming from the bed since a while ago...

"Hmm~~"

The bed sheet slowly bulged, and soon a set of silk underwear that seduced young people's primitive impulses came into Shidao's sight. At some point, Nanashi, who had turned into an adult, came to Shidao's bed, rubbed her sleepy eyes in confusion, and slowly stretched her waist, showing Shidao her perfect and sexy body curves.

"Seven Seven Seven-Seven Sins! Why are you here?"
