Chapter Twenty-Six: The Midsummer Festival

"Tokiwadai Junior High School girls' dormitory midsummer festival. Zhao Mian looked at the banner hanging in front of him and compared it with the reception roll in his hand, "It should be here." ”

However, although today is an open day. But everyone who enters has to undergo a full body inspection, and there is an anti-counterfeiting mark to prevent forgery on the reception ticket, and even the entertainment ticket has a magnetic chip hidden inside. It seems that Tokiwadai Academy has invested a lot of money in the security work of this event.

After waiting for a while, Zhao Mian finally passed through the security system at the gate. However, such activities are actually guards, although they are not equipped with any weapons, but the guards will participate in such activities, it seems that there should have been something that should not have happened before.

"It seems that the students at Tokiwadai must have been very well prepared. Walking into this open place, Zhao Mian looked at the Tokiwadai students dressed in maid costumes everywhere, and the entrance hall that had obviously been heavily decorated, and felt a feeling.

Zhao Mian received a copy of the so-called "Tokiwadai Junior High School Girls' Student Dormitory Midsummer Festival・Action Guide" from a girl standing near the gate.

"Although Hatsuharu often says 'Tokiwadai's eldest lady'," Zhao Mian said with some emotion as he walked casually down the corridor while flipping through the guide in his hand, "but some of the things on display here are indeed the images of the so-called Japanese classic Miss Lady in front of the camera." It's all flower arrangement, embroidery, calligraphy, tea art, painting and the like. Zhao Mian looked at the booklet in his hand with a little headache, "But these things, except for what tea art can also arouse some interest, the others don't seem to be things that normal men should like, right?"

"Forget it," Zhao Mian closed the booklet in his hand and threw it into the space bag, "I haven't seen a few other people, so let's go shopping by myself for the time being." ”

But what to say...... Sure enough, as expected, among the things on display in the Midsummer Festival this time, there are really not many things that can attract Zhao Mian. As an adventurer who has been on Azeroth for many years, Zhao Mian is not one of those boys who can be very satisfied as long as he can enter the girls' dormitory, and is in the estrus period of his life. Therefore, in the case of almost being bored to the limit, Zhao Mian stayed until noon with the idea that it was at least much cooler inside than outside.

Following the map provided on the booklet, Zhao Mian groped to find the canteen that provided the food.

Lunch is in the form of a buffet, and Zhao Mian still agrees with this way of eating. Because as long as you can control your own amount, then there is basically no situation where you will not be full of food or have a large amount of food left.

And due to the advanced nature of the facilities in the school city,Zhao Mian's exercise for himself has finally been able to change from maintaining physical ability to strengthening physical fitness。 Therefore, Zhao Mian, who basically maintains a large amount of calorie consumption every day, is holding two large plates of high-calorie various meat foods and basic white toast in both hands, looking for a seat where there is no one.

"Ahh Suddenly, a familiar voice came from not far away, Zhao Mian turned his head to look, Zuo Tian was waving his hand to him, and the two girls except Bai Jing were also looking at him, "Here and here!"

Zhao Mian shrugged his shoulders and cautiously walked over with the food in his hand.

"Really, the seniors must have come late in the morning, right?" Before Zhao Mian could sit down, Zuo Tian's voice came over with some complaints, "We've been waiting at the door for a long time!"

"Really?" Zhao Mian shrugged his shoulders a little indifferently, took a piece of beef with a fork and threw it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it, "But this kind of event will be held all day anyway, right?" ”

"Eh, the seniors really are. Chu Chun puffed out his face and looked very angry, "In order to wait for you, I have gone to one less place in the plan!"

"Is that so?" Zhao Mian swallowed the food in his mouth and thought for a while, "Then next time I invite you to the Western restaurant last time, even if it is this apology." ”

"Ah, it's better than this," Zuo Tian put down the spoon he was shouting in his mouth, with an excited expression, "There will be a surprise today!"

"Surprise?" Zhao Mian thought for a moment, "Are you talking about the Misaka classmate's performance?"

"Huh?" The three girls present all looked at Zhao Mian in surprise, and the most surprised of them, Misaka, looked at Zhao Mian in disbelief and asked, "Why? Why do you even know such a thing?"

"Ah, this. Zhao Mian took the time to chew a few bites of the meat in his mouth and swallowed it, "This morning, when I was visiting your midsummer festival, I could hear your Tokiwadai students discussing topics such as 'What will Misaka-senpai perform today?' So when Saten said surprise just now, I wondered if it was the case. ”

“…… Actually, the whole dormitory is discussing......" Misaka lowered his head quite weakly.

Looking at Misaka, who was about to bend forward in frustration, Zhao Mian asked Zuo Tian with some confusion what was going on. But Saten only responded to an unaware action.

So, lunch was spent in Misaka's rather powerless expression, and the sigh of the early spring of the eldest lady's life.

As soon as lunch was over, Misaka left under the pretext that he needed to go to the bathroom. It's not easy to say, but Misaka obviously left with a distracted and preoccupied look.

"Now," Saten asked Hatsuharu, "don't you think that from the beginning, Misaka-senpai has been very strange?"

"Is there one?" However, it is obvious that he has always been immersed in his own small world, and it is impossible for Haruharu, who is not disturbed by outsiders, to be aware of all this, not to mention that Misaka has not made a very unusual move.

"I guess I'm a little nervous. Zhao Mian shrugged his shoulders and said, "Look, she's about to perform on stage." And in front of all the people who visit here. ”

"Eh?!! nervous ?!!" As a result, both of them looked at Zhao Mian with some surprise, "Senior Sister Misaka?"

"Eh, isn't it weird?" Zhao Mian also asked with some surprise.

"Of course it's weird," the two looked at each other, and Saten said, "That's the Misaka-senpai who has always been full of momentum!"

"You guys. Zhao Mian sighed, "You are all covered up by the Misaka senior sister in front of you usually. You see, no matter how steady and reliable she is in front of you, she is still a little fourteen-year-old girl. With such a performance that everyone was looking forward to, I think it would be the first time in her life. So there's definitely tension and stuff like that. ”

"This. The two girls looked at each other again and nodded, "There is some truth to this." ”

"Is there anyone else who wants to increase the price?" Suddenly, a voice from outside the window caught the attention of the three of them.
