(Friday, May 24, 2013, afternoon; near the transmission tower)

With a metal detector in her left hand and a garden hoe in her right hand, Little Bird Yurooka is searching the mud around the transmission tower bit by bit. The ground behind her had been dug with seven or eight shallow pits of earth, each marked by a glass "crystal".

"Where is the key that was said to have been sent to the past, or does it not exist?"

The little bird Yu Liuhua thought in distress as she swept the ground under her feet with a metal detector.

Two months ago, she stumbled upon the "Black Flame Notes" given to her by Yuta Tomigashi, which contained the secret of awakening the [Dark Flame Dragon], which seemed to be the arrangement made by the [Black Flame Envoy] in advance to promote the [Dark Flame God]. The Black Flame Herald hides the code in the keys of the three main coins named after the three goddesses of Norn. Verdandi, which symbolizes the "present", happens to be hidden in the mezzanine, while the URD and SKULD, which symbolize the "past" and "future" respectively, are missing—according to the ciphertext, the URD was sent to the past by the magic array built by Yuta Tomigashi with the help of the transmission system, and can only be recalled through the "dimensional nodes" in this area;

Unfortunately, the previous "outing" with Sanae Tsukamori turned into eating, drinking, and having fun because of no clues, and it wasn't until she got her hands on a metal detector a week ago that she was able to detect the metal beneath the surface. Even so, the search is still difficult, and the results are often metal bottle caps, iron nails and bolts.

"Do you want to go back and ask Yuta?" Kotori Yu Liuhua couldn't help but think in her heart, and then denied the idea, "No, no, in this case, the meaning of the contract will be lost." ”

She wiped the sweat from her forehead, watched the setting sun, and soon realized that it was time to go home for dinner. She didn't want Yuta Tomigashi to worry about it.

"Well, let's go back first. ”

……

(Friday, May 24, 2013 at night; 2nd floor, Yuta Tomigashi's house)

After dinner and washing, Bird You Liuhua sat at the desk in her pajamas and was making up for it with her laptop. This is the old "Another" a year ago, which she accidentally searched for when she was shopping for an eye patch on the Internet - the heroine saw that Naru Saki was wearing an eye patch like herself, but the other party covered her left eye.

If it was the [Evil King's True Eye], she secretly said in her heart that this so-called "phenomenon" was a piece of cake at all. Let's take a "True God Domain" to find out the demons of another dimension hidden behind them, and then put three or four forbidden spells......

"Liuhua, can I come in?"

Just as she was about to start thinking about the next battle scene, there was a knock on the door, and Yuta Tomigashi's voice came in from outside the door.

"Hmm. She woke up from her fantasy and paused the video on her computer, "Come in." ”

"Are you making up for it?" Yuta Tomigashi quickly noticed the animation on the screen after entering the door, "This is ...... another？”

"Well, I stumbled upon it recently. The little bird You Liuhua replied in a low voice, and then noticed that the other party's expression was a little unnatural, "What's the matter, Yuta?"

"Ah, that...... What should I say, Liuhua shouldn't have any arrangements for tomorrow, right?"

"Well, nothing tomorrow. What's wrong?" she looked up, a pair of bright blue eyes blinking.

"Yike...... If you have time, would you like to go to the aquarium tomorrow?" Yuta Tomigashi blushed slightly, "I always feel like I haven't had much chance to be alone." ”

"Brave ...... Yuta ......" Kotori Yu Liuhua felt that her face was a little hot, and her heart was filled with joy and excitement, "Well! Let's go together tomorrow!"

……

(Saturday, May 25, 2013 afternoon; Kyoto Aquarium)

Located in Kyoto's Umekoji Park, Kyoto Aquarium is Japan's first large-scale aquarium located in an inland area and the first aquarium in Japan to use artificial seawater.

Kotori Yurooka and Yuta Tomigashi came here by train. Originally, she planned to let Yuta Tomigashi ride a bicycle with her roller heel behind her, but the thought that it would take more than an hour made her decide to abandon the idea.

For today's date, Xiaotori You Liuhua specially changed into a purple dress, covered with dark blue shoulders, and over-the-knee stockings on her legs, which looked very cute. As soon as she remembered the playful gaze of Fu Zhangye before going out, her little face was slightly red.

In contrast, Yuta Tomigashi's dress is not so elaborate - casual wear with a light blue jacket and dark green trousers will only make people think that they are good-looking passers-by.

After buying the tickets, the two entered the aquarium and first came to the Japanese giant salamander exhibition area "Kyonokawa". Simulating the ecology of the upper reaches of the Kamogawa River, the complex artificial water circulation system reproduces the "Iwashimizu" that seeps out between the rocks, the "spring water" gushing out between the sand, and the "dripping" water that seeps out between the moss, and the Japanese giant salamander and rainbow trout inhabit the artificial stream formed by the convergence of three types of water.

"Wow!" Leng Buding saw the stunned Japanese giant salamander chasing the small fish at a high speed, and the little bird Yurokuka was startled, and took Yuta Tomigashi's hand and clenched it involuntarily.

"Haha, they're not as sluggish as they seem!" Yuta Tomigashi said with a smile, squeezing her hand with his backhand, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled.

The quiet Japanese giant salamander is not much to see. The two held hands and went to the second ecological simulation area of this venue, "Yuragawa". Unlike the Kamogawa simulation area, this one does not focus on a single section of the river, but shows the upstream, middle, and downstream of the Yura River in a small stretch of waterway. In the upper reaches there are white-spotted salmon and cherry trout, in the middle there are barramundi and long-nosed bass, and in the lower reaches there are carp and crucian carp swimming leisurely.

At the end of the tour, the bird Yurooka and Yuta Tomigashi went to the fur seals, seals, and penguins in turn. The three exhibits are delicate and elegant, similar to the city of Kyoto, with a seemingly small space inside, but they are cleverly designed to keep the animals moving around, and there are even tunnels under the floors – which unfortunately are not visible to visitors.

"Maybe we should replace the floor with a transparent one?" she thought to herself, telling her mind about it, and told Yuta Tomigashi, "but that doesn't seem to be in line with the animals' habits." ”

"Well, a part of the area for viewing is sufficient. The other party smiled and met her gaze, "Maybe it's because of the installation of water and electricity lines, and I don't think there should be such a large space underneath." ”

The design of the penguin exhibit is also very interesting. The land part is deliberately smooth and sloping, and the penguins have to climb the hill with the help of the waves, as they would in nature. The way they sprint with all their might amazes the newcomers.

Later, they came to the "Kyo-no-Umi", a giant tank with about 500 tons of man-made seawater, which completely reproduces the biodiversity of nature. Schools of sardines are undoubtedly the most striking, while marine life such as kaman, moray eels, giant octopuses and rays also have their own characteristics.

"Oh...... Lalleye has reappeared!"

In her mind, she imagines artificial reefs as green stone from another world, and her uneven surfaces are filled with dizzyingly tall boulder carvings, magnificent stone statues, and ornate reliefs. She tried to imagine the strong smell of uncleanness emanating from the entire city, but she was distressed by the clear artificial water.

"Hah, it's still like this. Yuta Tomigashi flicked a flick on her forehead, "You didn't wear an eye patch today." ”

"My control over the [Evil King's True Eye] has reached a level where it can be retracted and released freely. "Eye patches and contact lenses belong to spiritual clothing, and you can do without them when you don't need to fight." ”

"It's like this at school, but it's because it's inconvenient to see things with one eye, right?"

"Hmm...... Yuta bullies. She blushed and muttered in an inaudible voice, then changed the subject, "I really want to go to Miskatanic University." ”

"Hey, are you going to do a living study of Shogues?" Yuta Tomigashi understood what she meant.

"Yes, it is expected to earn a degree from a bachelor of demonology. Little Bird You Liuhua looked directly into each other's eyes, and the two of them smiled understandingly.

"So, let's go to the dolphinarium?" Yuta Tomigashi suggested.

"Hmm. ”

At the dolphinarium, you can see bottlenose dolphins swimming in groups in the pool. The downside is that compared to the dolphins' lively nature, this pool is still a little small enough for them to swim to their heart's content.

"By the way, it seems that Kyle-kun only has the Japanese version of microsoft_office when it is opened. ”

"Eh, really, but the name always reminds me of angels. ”

Before the dolphin show began, Totori Yurouka and Yuta Tomigashi sat in the audience, chatting without saying a word. It wasn't long before the trainers and dolphins appeared in the pool below.

"Wow! What a speed! It's like it's going to shatter the void!"

Watching the dolphins sprint and jump under the instructions of the trainer, the little bird Yu Liuhua couldn't help but sigh.

"Do you have any friends who want to direct the dolphins themselves?" the host of the show invited at the right time, which immediately brought the atmosphere in the audience to a climax.

"I!" "I!" The children raised their hands. Little Bird You Liuhua hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't hold back the expectation in her heart, and raised her arms accordingly.

"Well, let's get the girl in the purple dress over there!"

Really chose me!

"Yes!" she walked down the steps, her body trembling slightly with excitement and shyness.

Standing in front of the stage, you can see the audience when you look up. Although it is not the peak season at this time, nearly half of the seats in the audience are occupied. The little bird Yu Liuhua has never been accustomed to this kind of occasion, and she immediately became nervous, and the muscles of her back, waist and legs were tense.

"Can you tell us your name and age?" asked the short-haired young presenter with a smile.

Not...... Name and age......

Little Bird You Liuhua turned her head mechanically, only to feel that the audience was all focused on herself. Their eyes were like fire, burning on their faces.

"Little ...... The age is ...... Be...... 6th grade!"

What did I just say?

She saw Yuta Tomigashi covering her face and lowering her head, looking like she couldn't bear to look directly, she couldn't help but look embarrassed, and she couldn't help but find a crack in the ground to get into.

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, take it easy. The host comforted kindly.

Fortunately, the little bird tour Liuhua itself looks small, and now elementary school girls have a lot of makeup, so there should be no risk of being exposed.

"Hmm...... Well. She replied in a low voice.

"Please look at the dolphin's face and let it shake its head from side to side. ”

The little bird You Liuhua shook her body at the dolphin as instructed, and the dolphin in front of her swayed mischievously from side to side with her, throwing her a splash.

"You, you...... Dolphin, calm down!"

"Are you alright? Do you want to wipe your face first?" the host handed over a dry towel, and it seemed that this kind of thing was not uncommon.

"It doesn't matter. She took the towel and wiped the water off her face.

So, let's let the trainer big sister explain how to make jumps. ”

"Start by pointing your right hand at the sky, then put your hand on your left shoulder, like this. The trainer walked over and demonstrated the command gesture to her, "I'll announce the slogan 123 later, and please make gestures in that order when the time comes." ”

"yes, I see. ”

"So here we go. 1，2，3——”

The bird Yurokuka gestures. The dolphins in the pool continue to jump out of the water, and it seems that they are training quite well.

It's as magical as the legendary Beast Sigil!

"You did a good job just now!" Returning to the audience, Yuta Tomigashi's first sentence was this, never mentioning the embarrassing scene before. But that's it, Little Bird You Liuhua felt even more ashamed, as if every look of the other party was secretly laughing at her.

No, it was just an illusion, she told herself.

"Yuta is such a fool...... Think of me like a child......" she muttered quietly, her voice as thin as a mosquito.

After the dolphin show, the two left the area, bought their own cones, and began to explore the rest of the area. After visiting the coral reef, jellyfish and shrimp and crab areas, the two came to Jinghou Mountain.

Stretching out in front of you is the beautiful Meikoji Park. In early summer, the park is so green that the laid-back scenery almost makes Rokka forget that she is in the center of Kyoto City. Today's sun was not too violent, and the two walked hand in hand in warmth, and it didn't take long to finish this small park.

"Here, you want the juice. Yuta Tomigashi walked over and handed her a bottle of juice she had just bought to her on the bench, then opened another bottle and sat down next to her, "I had a lot of fun today!"

"Well, the dolphin has shattered the void!"

Yuta Tomigashi scratched her nose affectionately and said with a smile, "I also held hands well." ”

"Ahh......h Brave...... Yuta's words," said Yokuka, the little bird, blushed and said shyly, "You can hold it for as long as you want." ”

"Haha...... The closing time of the aquarium is approaching, so let's go back together. ”

"Hmm. ”

……

(Saturday, May 25, 2013; on the embankment)

After getting off the tram and walking hand in hand on the way home, the little bird Yurouka hesitated for a long time, and finally made up her mind to speak.

"Yes...... However, I still don't understand ......"

"Hmm, what's wrong?" Yuta Tomigashi stopped and looked at her suspiciously.

"I signed a lover contract with Yuta, so it's a lover, but, but ......" Kotori Yu Liuhua tilted her head shyly, "I specially checked what a lover is on the Internet, and there is an unmarried cohabitation or something......"

Her voice grew lower and lower, and by the end she could barely make her hear.

"Well, in a way, we're the same kind of people. ”

She was shocked when she heard this, but found that Yuta Tomigashi was already standing in front of her at some point. His delicate face flushed slightly, and it didn't seem to be as relaxed as he said.

"Really...... It's really worthy of the person that my [Black Flame Messenger] values, the evil ...... [Evil King's True Eye]-" Yuta Tomigashi made a gesture to perform the technique, and the left hand covering his face didn't know if it was necessary or to hide the embarrassment, "The relationship between us is not an ordinary love, but a lover contract exclusive to the [Evil King's True Eye] and [Dark Flame Messenger], so we just need to build our own relationship." ”

"Yuta ......" Yuyaka looked at her lover in front of her in a daze.

And so...... How about this?" Yuta Tomigashi scratched his head a little embarrassed, and the [Pitch Black Flame Envoy] instantly degenerated into an ordinary high school student.

"Poof...... Hee-hee...... "Kotori Yu Liuhua still had a blush on his face, and he looked at each other directly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "I just know that the good day is over, and I will return to the same home with Yuta next." It doesn't get any happier than that......"

She took Yuta Tomigashi's arm: "Yuta, let's go." ”
