The sun was high in the sky, the warm sunlight was shining on the earth, it was the weekend, and there were many more pedestrians on the street than before, and a small commercial street was full of bustling people.

"Hurry up, Tetsuya!" Anri walked in front, with a cheerful smile on her face, stopping from time to time to urge Tetsuya behind.

"How can there be so many people..."Tetsuya looked at the crowd helplessly, holding the spoils of Anri in both hands, and had to raise his arm with difficulty to wipe the sweat on his forehead.

It's been a few days since the destruction of the Kiri Elrod lair, and the information gained has already been reported to the TPC higher-ups. It's just that they haven't had time to free up their hands to investigate the matter, as for the reason, it seems to be an elusive monster, and the TPC people who have been disturbing in recent days are nervous, and the members of the victory team are also nervous because of this. Compared to the unknowable danger of the future, it is clear that the danger of the near world is imminent, so the eyes of the top management are focused on this matter.

"Weekends... We thought that if we took advantage of this time to go shopping, others would definitely think of it. Anri pursed her lips helplessly, and had to walk back again, pulling Tetsuya to shuttle through the flow of people.

"Are we going to find a place to rest..."Tetsuya carried a large bag and smiled helplessly: "I've already bought so many things..."

"What... Shopping is a woman's nature..."Anri pursed her lips dissatisfiedly and glared back at Tetsuya, "You can't deprive people of their nature... It's a crime! ”

"This is an inexplicable crime..."Tetsuya moved his steps and squeezed past the crowd, but was hit on the shoulder and turned around in displeasure.

However, for a moment, he seemed to see a familiar face looking at him, with a grinning smile. But as if it was just an illusion, when I looked at it again, I found that it was just an office worker, looking at me apologetically.

"I've finished eating all my chocolates..."Anri took out the tin box from the pocket of her trench coat and motioned for Tetsuya, "So I'm going to buy some now..."

"Uh... But aren't these all chocolates? Tetsuya reluctantly raised the shopping bags in his left hand, and in front of him was a strange woman, she didn't like to buy clothes, but she was obsessed with buying all kinds of chocolates.

"It's different..."Anri shook her head and pulled Tetsuya into a chocolate shop.

"That's not the taste I wanted..."

"Then why buy it?"

"I only found out after I bought it!"

Tetsuya was speechless, so she had to follow Anri, watching her pick out boxes of exquisite chocolates on the counter, picking them up and putting them down, and they didn't seem to be very satisfied.

"Can't you do it?" Tetsuya asked.

"It's different..."Anri shook her head helplessly, "It's not what I want..."

"And what do you want?"

Anri pursed her lips and didn't speak, but walked around the store casually.

Tetsuya paused, suddenly understood something, looked at the chocolates on the counter, and then looked at the ones he was carrying, and suddenly realized.

Anri's father runs a chocolate factory, but she is not obsessed with the taste of chocolate. It's the brand of chocolate that belongs to her family, or rather, she just wants to send her thoughts to her family when she is holding chocolate.

Everyone has their own family, and she followed her to this world, but it doesn't mean that she completely forgot her relatives in that world.

Thinking of this, Tetsuya cleaned up her mood, adjusted her mood, stepped forward and took Anri's hand, accompanied her to pick up random ones in the store, and smiled at her occasional little temper. In this world, Anri can't find the chocolate in another world that she has been missing.

"But it doesn't matter... You still have me. ”

Hearing such an answer, Anri finally nodded with a smile on her face, picked out a few more boxes of chocolates, and packed several large bags before putting them down, and was carried out of the store slowly by Tetsuya.

After shopping for most of the day, the two found a stall, ordered two drinks and sat down. Looking around, Anri saw a small stage set up not far away, so she took Tetsuya and walked over, found a place to sit down at random, and kept looking at the stage with curious eyes.

Seeing her interested appearance, Tetsuya also looked at it, but only felt extremely helpless. It was just a simple stage, and a few people dressed like a circus were performing on it. The so-called performances are just a variety of seemingly funny actions, and the children around them are interested in watching it, but Tetsuya can't find a trace of laughter.

"It seems that all of them are children..."Tetsuya looked around, and found that there were all children sitting around, and the two of them were standing out next to a group of children.

"So what... Don't you think they're putting on a funny show? Anri looked very interested, and she never took her eyes off the stage.

"Uh," Tetsuya was a little speechless, "haven't you seen a similar performance?" ”

"No," Anri said with a hint of nostalgia on her face, looking at the so-called burlesque on the stage with relish, "When I was young, my father's chocolate factory was just starting, and he and my mother were busy with work all day, so they didn't have time to take me to watch this kind of performance. ”

After a slight pause, Tetsuya seemed to understand why Anri, the daughter of a wealthy family, had to run away to join the DEUS organization and volunteer to become an agent.

"Haven't been to the playground either?"

"No," Anri shook her head and shouted at Tetsuya, "Look, that little thing is so funny!" ”

"Then I'll take you there," Tetsuya whispered in Anri's ear.

With a slightly baby fat face, Anri nodded seriously, and was immediately attracted by the performance on the stage, shouting like a child.

It's unbelievable, who would have thought that the deputy captain of the hunter team, who is usually cold, would behave so completely opposite in private?

Tetsuya put his arm around Anri's shoulders and looked at the performance on the stage, when an uncle in a silver hat on the stage said, "That's it, the monster postman started to deliver letters, he ran and ran..."

Around him, a short guy in a monster costume was running around pretendingly, and the horse coat costume was particularly delicate, and the subtle lines on it were clearly visible. There was a dark brown holster inside, but it was decent, with a huge sausage-like mouth open and round eyes moving smartly.

"Something is wrong..."

Anri beside her watched with relish, and from time to time she was amused by the clumsy monster postman on the stage, but Tetsuya felt more and more that something was wrong, and her eyes stared at the short monster, observing his actions.

"That's not right..."Tetsuya pinched the back of Anri's hand and whispered in her ear, "That's a real monster!" ”
