Chapter 17: The "First" Experience of the Oriental Festival
Weekend, nightfall, String God Island West District, Titis Mall -
Tidis Mall is located in the heart of the western part of the island of Xianjin, which is a commercial area. Pen & Fun & Court www.biquge.info is a shopping mall that is a symbol of the bustling town, and it is a convenient place where specialty stores, restaurants, and movie theaters are all together.
Tonight, the surroundings are even more lit up, filled with various stalls, as if some kind of large-scale event is being held.
"By the way, what kind of dress are you waiting for? Is this the good thing you mentioned?" Sakura said suspiciously. Sakura said as she looked at Satsuki and Asteruti, who were dressed in dark purple and light lavender yukata, respectively.
"Yes, haven't you heard of it? This is the traditional costume of this country, a kind of kimono, which is commonly worn after hot springs or bathing, and is also commonly used in festivals, temple fairs, festivals and fireworks displays in various places during the summer in Japan............ "That month actually calmly started popularizing science.
"I understand, but aren't you going to fight?"
"There are still two hours left before the scheduled time, how about enjoying the temple fair and fireworks display in this country before that?" said Natsuki, in fact, the yukata was not in the way of the battle, and the three people present were all mage-type characters.
"Fireworks?"
"Oh, yes, in your old days, that great invention hadn't reached you. The so-called fireworks are colorful and beautiful things that explode in the sky. Nayue also opened the fan suddenly, stretched out his arms, and showed off.
"Don't say that fireworks were invented by you............"
"This is a temple fair specially prepared for your actions today, give me gratitude to Dade to experience the culture of this country. If you have a rare opportunity, would you like to change into a yukata? There is a shop in front of the station for rent. ”
"I didn't learn how to wear that kind of clothes. Sakura said, turning around in place, and her clothes had changed into a black and red yukata. Misaka Sakura didn't really wear a yukata in her body, and although the Six Paths mode outfit was somewhat similar, it was also transformed by Yin and Yang.
"Do you want to use magic to disguise yourself? ”
"Isn't it easy for you to disguise yourself?, and I have a general understanding of the purpose of the fireworks festival, so I can use it to cover up the explosions that occur in air battles. Sakura said understandingly. ”
"Well, it's sometimes easy to talk to you. Nayue nodded.
"Let's go, Asterutti. If you don't have a good time before working in a dayjob, it's a big loss. Sakura commanded. Sakura took Asterudti's hand and walked towards the street of the fair.
"Accept the order. (accept.)" Asteruti still has that mechanical tone, her smile has been quite rare this month, I wonder if the temple fair can make her smile more?
Stalls of all kinds stand on both sides of the street, lined up side by side, enclosing the middle block, and the owners of the stalls, dressed in different costumes, shout loudly from time to time, blending with the noise of the tourists.
People walked by one after another, many wearing yukatas, laughing and chatting, looking left and right, patronizing their favorite stalls around, and the scene was full of joy.
However, the joyous scene is only a cover for the impending crisis, and this is not far from the battle area, but the flow of people here is not low anyway, so I plan to use the temple fair as a cover.
As for expelling people, this kind of fight in the Demon Special Zone is simply every once in a while, and for this kind of thing, the mayor will get out of here. Of course, the combat area itself was driven away by formalities.
The two sides of the fight are called "masquerade attachers". It can be said that the whole incident is full of all kinds of mysteries, and the management of the commune has not yet solved all kinds of mysteries about what the "masquerade attachers" are, why they kill each other, why they always run out to fight to the death at a fixed time, and where the other winning "masquerade attachers" went.
Because the time and place of several events allowed the Commune to discover the pattern, this operation was planned.
It was precisely because of the discovery of the law that the personnel of the SAR garrison were dispatched in advance last time and rushed to the scene first. Otherwise, I'm afraid that even the seriously injured "masked attacher" will die afterwards, and there will be no chance for them to bring it back. However, the only secret discovered by this "masked attacher" was the one that Natsuki was aware of.
But this temple fair also seems to have attracted something that was not expected to exist before-
"Natsuki-chan, that-" Sakura pointed to the other three people behind the crowd more than ten meters away—
The two yukata girls, Nagisa, were talking and laughing while pulling Yukina, and seemed to be a little bouncing around. Behind them was an ancient city, carrying a large guitar bag containing a snow wolf in one hand and a shopping bag in the other. It seems that for the time being, it has become a difficult role for the lady to carry the bag, but the guitar bag should be Nagisa shoehorned, after all, with Yukina's dedication, she will not let the snow wolf leave at will, and the yukata is probably Nagisa insisted on her to wear it.
"Alas, it's really raining during the house leakage season, but today is the weekend, and I have no reason to bombard them to leave, teacher. That month said.
By the way, Asterloti wore a newly bought butterfly-shaped hairpin and ate takoyaki with relish.
At this moment, something was flying in the dark night sky above the huge TV tower standing outside the busy street, surrounded by an ominous light. Unlike airplanes, there are completely irregular movements. It was a strange shadow close to a human form, and a fierce aerial battle was being staged!
"That moon chan appeared a lot earlier than you said. Sakura said. ”
"No way, Asterutti, go tell the people of the Commune that it's time to set off fireworks. That month said.
"Accept the order. (accept.)" Asterudi pulled a radio-like object from the cuff of her yukata and began to operate.
Soon, points of light shot out from the side of the temple fair from the bottom up, and colorful fireworks depicted large flowers in the night sky.
At this time, Yukina and the ancient city were completely unaware.
"Xiao forget it, sure enough, even if it's the sword witch of the Lion King's organ, can't you detect it?" Nayue frowned, "But it's just right, before they realize that something is wrong, they will solve it in one breath, and they are going to jump-"
As soon as Nayue's voice fell, the three of them had already come to the TV tower, although Natsuki and Sakura shared the space control magic, but Nayue's dominance level was completely above Sakura.
The three of them can see clearly when they get here, except for the difference in their hair, one silver and one black, the common feature is that they have a pair of angel wings behind their backs, their bodies are wrapped in special cloths, and they are wearing strange patterned masks - the ones that come with the masks!
"The silver-haired one, I know. Sakura said.
"What does it have to do with you?" asked Natsuki.
"Sort of, in the past month, I have occasionally secretly sent stray cats to the courtyard when there is no one in the monastery, it must be her, I can't be wrong. Sakura explained. ”
"Send the cat?, catch it first. ”
