Back at the hotel, remembering this afternoon's trip to Senyan Garden, the corners of Yuta Tomigashi's mouth drew a wonderful arc. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

How long did they sit in the pavilion? Who knows, none of that matters. The time with my loved one is always so short, but it seems to be an instant and eternal, and now I think back on it and my heart is still sweet.

"Tomigashi-kun is thinking about Birdie-san, right?"

"You've had enough of the two-person world today!"

"Burst, charge!"

"Enough of you!" "The process of reminiscing was interrupted, and Yuta Tomigashi said angrily, "By the way, are you going to see Sakurajima today?"

"yes, but it's a bit of a pity that the top of the volcano is blocked by clouds. Isshiki Makoto spread out his hands, and there was regret in his tone, "Yuta, where have you been?"

"I walked around the city and went to Xianyan Garden. Oh, by the way, I bought the cosmic food from the Space Information Center, would you like to try it?" he took out the food he had bought during the day from his backpack and placed them all on the coffee table in the living room, "Well, there are takoyaki, southern salmon grilled, Kyoto-style sauce backgammon noodles, and okonomiyaki." ”

"Well, there's an unexpectedly rich variety! I thought it was all monotonous fast food. ”

"Then you're welcome. Let's try how this takoyaki tastes first......"

Not surprisingly, the taste of vacuum-packed space food can only be said to be acceptable, and it is definitely not a delicacy, so it is just a novelty. After supper, Yuta Tomigashi chatted with Makoto Isshiki and others for a while, and then played a game again, and when they saw that the time was almost there, they all lay down and went to sleep.

(Wednesday, June 12, 2013, morning; Kagoshima Prefecture)

After the rain, the weather today is quite good, with blue skies and white clouds and a light breeze. After having breakfast with Yuta Tomigashi and Tori Rokka, they started walking along the road next to Planetarium Street towards the Shiroyama Observatory.

Walking to Higashi-Sengoku, Yuta Tomigashi can see the green mountains in the distance, and at the bottom of the mountain is the huge torii gate of Terukuni Shrine. They first took a tour of the Kagoshima Prefectural Museum at the foot of the mountain, and then passed the torii gate and went up the mountain. There are not many tourists here, except for students who are on school trips, and middle-aged and elderly people who come to take a walk in the locals.

Terukuni Shrine is a shrine dedicated to Shimazu Saibinko, the 28th owner of the Shimazu family. In the center of the shrine is a strange-shaped tree called a "preservation tree", and its main trunk has branches that look like the wings of a seagull extending from each side, and the whole is trimmed to look like a gliding bird.

One of the walls of the shrine is covered with wish-making emas, and these small rectangular wooden plaques have various blessings written on them. Yuta Tomigashi and the others were not interested in this, so they took a look and left the place.

After passing a parking lot, they came to Terukuni Shrine next to the Tankatsuen Garden. It was the first garden in Japan to send a telegram, and it houses the statue of Tadayoshi Shimazu and other figures. It is said that when the Shimazu family was the 25th generation head of the family, the name of the place was Chiaki Garden, but the current name was changed by the 27th generation of the family.

After visiting the Tourist Attraction Garden, Yuta Tomigashi took the bird to Rokka and prepared to climb the observatory along the Jozan Nature Trail. To their surprise, they met another familiar secondary two girl in front of the guide map.

"Yuta, look there. ”

Needless to say, Yuta Tomigashi had already noticed the girl whose presence had broken through the sky in front of her. Wearing a long scarf that hangs down to the knees, black stockings wrapped around his legs, and his pink hair tied in a strange ring-shaped double ponytail, who else can there be but Tomoon Nanamiya?

"Seven Palaces?"

"Hmm...... Eh, isn't this a brave man? and Liuhua-chan?" the other party turned his head to look at this side when he heard this, and then jumped in front of him in three steps and two steps, "Great! Are you also here for a study trip?"

"Hmm. So, so are you in the Seventh Palace?"

"Well, it's great to meet you here!" said Nanamiya with a smile.

Yuta Tomigashi hesitated for a while and decided to express his doubts: "By the way, Nanamiya, is it really okay to wear a scarf on such a hot day?"

"This isn't just an ordinary scarf, it's a scarf made of heat-dissipating fabric with ice magic attached to it, and it was given to me by Akiyama. ”

In the past, Qinomiya didn't wear a scarf in the summer, so as I guessed, there was a special way to solve the problem of heat dissipation...... But I still can't help but want to complain.

"Nanamiya, there's always a question I want to ask you. Yuta Tomigashi deliberately made a serious appearance.

"What's wrong?"

"Sure enough, the scarf is what you are?"

The other party froze in place when he heard this question, and the little bird on the side, You Liuhua, laughed out loud.

"Brave......! It's too much to say this kind of thing!" Nanamiya Zhiyin reacted, his face flushed, "Please don't joke about other people's spiritual costumes!"

"Hah...... Sorry sorry, it was just a whim. ”

The little bird Yu Liuhua secretly poked his waist with her finger next to her.

"Ah, yes...... I'm sorry to disturb your two-person world, but-" Nanamiya Tomoon showed a somewhat embarrassed expression, "Can you lend me 500 yen to buy some drinks first?"

"Absolutely. Hearing the "world of two", Yuta Tomigashi's face turned slightly red, "Did Qigong forget to bring money?"

The embarrassment on the other party's face became even stronger.

"No...... It's just that...... When I was resting in the park with my classmates, my bag was stolen by a demon......" Her voice became quieter and quieter, "probably because of the interference of angels, and then I forgot where I lost it......"

This passage is really full of slots! I can't spit it out at all!

"Then let me [Evil King's True Eye] help you!" "Little Bird You Liuhua stroked his chest with his right hand, and his pride overflowed, "Under the gaze of [Evil King's True Eye], all evil demons have nothing to hide!"

Hey, don't just burn it up at this time! Besides, have you really thought about how to find it?

"What, does Nanamiya still have an impression of the previous situation?"

"Hmm, let me think about it...... Pregnant. Nanamiya led them to an intersection, "I remember passing through here." ”

Yuta Tomigashi looked at the sign next to him that read "Dangerous place for a steep slope to collapse", and was speechless for a while.

"It looks like a mysterious path to another plane...... "Kotori Yu Liuhua touched her chin, looking thoughtful, and then pointed excitedly towards it, "Yuta, let's go in and have a look!"

"You two are really similar in some ways......

So far, even if he is ruthless enough to ignore Chiyin Nanamiya, Yuta Tomigashi will not be able to leave his lover alone, not to mention that he has no intention of rejecting his friend.

Naturally, this abandoned and dangerous section of the road will not be visited by many tourists. They walked along the overgrown path, the seats along the way were all worn, and they didn't see Tomoon Nanamiya's crossbody bag. Perhaps due to yesterday's rain, the ground was a little slippery, and they had to carefully control their balance. The three of them walked wordlessly on the somewhat gloomy forest path, and the atmosphere was indescribably weird.

"Oh, I just remembered something. Bird Yu Liuhua stopped suddenly, "Sophia's phone is in her bag, right?"

"Hmm. What's wrong?" Nanamiya Tomoin looked at her suspiciously.

"So why don't you just use positioning?"

Yuta Tomigashi slapped his head. Why didn't you think of it?

However, it seems that Liuhua is very impressed by Sister Shihua's use of positioning to track her.

With satellite positioning, Yuta Tomigashi and the three of them naturally don't need to try their luck in the mountains like headless flies. After a thrilling journey through a dense forest, they came to a towering tree.

I don't know how many years the tree has been, its trunk so thick that it takes about three people to hug it, and its leafy canopy blocks out most of the blazing sunlight.

"It's so big!" Tomigashi couldn't help but sigh.

"This should be the legendary Fairy Tree......

"Agreed! The magic element here is so strong that it seems to be condensed into substance!"

"You guys really hit it off when it comes to this kind of thing. He looked at the two middle two girls helplessly, "Then, the bag of the seventh palace should be around here...... Eh, is that the one?"

Behind the left side of the tree is a tattered wooden square table and wooden chair, on which lies a small cat-shaped satchel.

"Well, I found it! Thank you so much, Brave, and the [Evil King's True Eye]!" Nanamiya Tomoin happily walked towards the square table.

"Of course, with the power of the [Evil King's True Eye], these are just pieces of cake!" said Bird Yu Liuhua proudly, hunched his waist.

Isn't it the power of GPS?

Just when Yuta Tomigashi was about to complain, an accident suddenly happened. I saw a monkey wearing a collar jump out at the exclamation of Nanamiya Tomoyin, grabbed her bag in its paws and dragged it to the ground, as if trying to open it.

"Alert!Dark Apostle!" Bird You Liuhua's expression changed, and she took a fighting stance.

"It's a monkey!" Yuta Tomigashi gave his lover who was running the train with his mouth full of a hand knife, and then turned to Nanamiya Tomoon, "Be careful, it may bite." ”

"My bag ......"

"You stand back first, I'll try. ”

He cautiously walked towards the monkey, but he was less than 3 meters close before the monkey barked at him.

What to do...... What to do...... Well, at this distance, you can get the bag by rushing up, but then the monkey's counterattack is troublesome...... By the way, how did I forget about Rokuka?

"Liuhua, did you bring an umbrella?"

"Of course! combat equipment has always been carried with us!"

"Cover me later when I turn and run. The corners of Yuta Tomigashi's mouth lifted, he was very confident in his skills and his lover's skills, "Nanamiya, prepare to catch your bag!"

"Brave man, this is going to ...... Instantaneous?" asked Nanamiya Tomoyin as he walked away.

"What's that?" he scratched his head unconsciously, then leaned slightly, "I'm going to go!"

His muscles snapped into force, and he quickly stepped up to the monkey, flew up and kicked the bag to the left like a football, and then turned and ran without hesitation.

"Brave, be careful!" Nanamiya shouted anxiously as she ran to catch her satchel.

Behind him came the frightened screams of monkeys.

"Look at me! Eternal Spear!" the little bird Yu Liuhua lowered his body and stabbed the umbrella in his hand as a Western sword, accurately hitting the leaping monkey and knocking it back.

"With the power of the True Eye of the Evil King—"

"Don't fight, run!"

Yuta Tomigashi quickly pulled her, pushed her in front of him, and ran with her.

Now the monkey was completely enraged, and an angry roar sounded behind him. He knew there was no turning back at this time.

"schwarz_shield (Dark Shield)!" "Toyo Rokuka suddenly passed the umbrella under her arm, pressed the mechanism and unfolded it behind her. A soft "bang" sound came from the umbrella, and it sounded like it was supposed to block the monkey's pun. Then, she pressed the second button, and the open umbrella quickly folded, greatly reducing the wind resistance, and was retracted in front of her.

"Guys in front, please wait a minute!" Just then, a familiar voice sounded from behind.

Monkey Sperm?

Yuta Tomigashi looked back and saw that the furious monkey had quieted down at some point, crouching on the ground and watching them.

It seems to be Sora Akiyama's voice. The voice...... Did it come from inside the collar?

"Tomigashi-kun?Rokkana-chan?" Akiyama's voice sounded again, "And the Seven Palaces?"

Perhaps taking into account the battery capacity of the collar, Sora Akiyama did not speak through the collar again, but contacted them on Skype.

"I didn't just finish lunch, and when I think of you in Kyushu, I think of this experiment. It was a collaborative project I was involved in before, and I remember it as if it was studying animal behavior, or adding the topic of 'Accelerated Learning Program to Animal Rewilding Training'. Although the focus of my lab has shifted elsewhere, the ability to view the data is still there. It turned out to be a coincidence, there was abnormal data just after the launch, and when I turned on the camera, I found that it was you. ”

This is indeed quite an amazing coincidence.

"Akiyama, you can already control animals remotely?" asked Nanamiya Tomoon curiously.

"It's a bit difficult to control too finely, and the monkey's equipment doesn't have such advanced features, but it's okay to just calm it down. I have the impression that this design should be designed to make it easier for researchers to check and replace the battery. ”

Sora Akiyama still has research work, so Yuta Tomigashi and the three of them didn't talk to him for too long.

"Do you want to go to the observatory together?"

"Okay. Just now, the [Evil King's True Eye Envoy] is really handsome!" Qigong Zhiyin looked at the little bird You Liuhua, and did not hide the look of worship in his eyes, "I didn't expect you to be able to reach such a high level of dual cultivation of magic and martial arts!"

"That'...... That's of course![Evil King's True Eye] is the strongest!" The latter's nose was almost upturned to the sky when the former praised him like this, "Actually, Yuta's swordsmanship is much more powerful than mine. ”

"Brave...... Could it be that the brave and the [Evil King's True Eye] secretly practiced penance?"

"Well, it's just a weekend to go to the swordsmanship gym to practice casually. He said with some embarrassment, "There is still a certain gap compared to real masters." ”

"I see! It seems that Sophia can't relax in martial arts either. By the way, that moment just now was perfect!"

"Uh...... What is this moment array?" Yuta Tomigashi looked at her suspiciously, "I don't think I have this in the setting, right?"

"Did the brave really forget?" Nanamiya Tomoyin looked a little lost, "I used this to retrieve the puppet from the front of the evil dog before. ”

After her reminder, Yuta Tomigashi remembered that there was such a thing. It was something that happened when he and the other party first met, and it was not written into his setting, and it was naturally forgotten over time.

"Anyway, the seven palaces still remember it very clearly. ”

"Hahaha! I, the Magic Demon King, will never forget the matter with the brave. Do you remember this?" Nanamiya Tomoon took out a golden coin from his bag, "The key to the future, Skuld, was given to me by the brave himself!"
