I hurriedly left the venue in accordance with Kasuga's orders, and then went to the club classroom to tell Nagato that I and Hasuga were not going to participate in club activities today, and told her that if Asahina and Furuizumi came over after class, I would tell them the news. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Since I didn't know what was going on with this silent paralife, I still wrote "SOS adjourned today: Spring Day" on the back of the leaflet left in the club classroom, and then nailed it to the door with a thumbtack.

Putting Furuquan aside, Asahina will be able to save the time of changing into maids' clothes.

Thanks to these things, I had not eaten yet, but at this time I heard the bell of the fifth class ringing, and I did not eat until the interval after class.

To say that I have never had such an idol drama dream of getting out of school side by side with a girl is absolutely deceitful. Although this dream is now being realized, I am not happy at all. What the hell is going on?

"What did you just say?"

Kasuga, who walked to my left and strode with a note in his hand, asked. I automatically translated her words into "Do you have any grievances?"

"No, no. ”

We walked down the ramp and along the railroad tracks of the private railway. A little further on is Gwangyoen Station.

I thought I was almost at the apartment where Nagato lived, but I didn't expect Kasuga to really go in that direction, and then stopped in front of a familiar brand new apartment for sale.

"Asakura seems to live in room 505 here. ”

She's saying, if there's no one now, we'll go inside 505 and do a search.

"I see. ”

"What is that?"

She's saying, Why, don't you dare go?

"No, nothing. By the way, how are you going to get in? You see, even the entrance door is locked. ”

I pointed to the digital lock next to the walkie-talkie and said:

"This is a door lock that requires a number to open the door, do you know the number?"

"I don't know, at this time, we have to use protracted warfare. ”

My sh (Kasuga) interpreter is finally broken, what are you waiting for? Because an aunt who seemed to be going out to buy something opened the door from inside, looked at us suspiciously, and then left. In the spring, he blocked it with his hand before the door was closed.

It's not very clever.

"Hurry up!"

She's saying, don't you want to run away!

I was forced into the hallway, and then happened to catch the elevator that stopped on the first floor. When taking the elevator, looking at the floor in silence is a courtesy-

"That Asakura, ah......"

But Haruhi doesn't seem to understand this etiquette.

"There are also many strange places. She didn't seem to be in the middle school of the city before. ”

Needless to say.

"I investigated a little and found that she came to Beigao from the Guozhongyue District of another county and city. There must be a problem! Peking High School is not a prestigious school, but just an ordinary county high school. Why did she go to such lengths to attend this school?"

"I don't know. ”

"But my home is so close to the school, and I still live in a sub-sale apartment, not rented. The location is so good, the house price must be very expensive. Could it be that she used to train from here to attend classes in junior high schools in other counties and cities?"

"I told you I don't know. ”

"It seems that it is necessary to investigate when Asakura started living here. ”

When the elevator reached the fifth floor, we first looked at the door of room 505 in silence for a moment. The door number that was supposed to be there has now been removed, indicating that it is a vacant room. Kasuga twisted the doorknob slightly, but of course it couldn't be opened.

Kasuga crossed her hands over her chest, thinking about how to get into the house to investigate, while I yawned on the sidelines. It's just a waste of my time.

"Go to the Administrator!"

"I don't think he's going to lend us the key. ”

"No, I just wanted to ask him when Asakura started living here. ”

"Forget it, let's go home!

"No, I can't. ”

We took the elevator back to the first floor and walked to the caretaker's room next to the entrance. At first glance, there was no one on the other side of the glass window, but after pressing the electric bell on the wall, a short old man with white hair slowly appeared. Before the old man had time to speak, Haruhi had already thunderbolted and talked a lot.

"We are friends of Asakura Sulfona, who used to live here. She moved suddenly and didn't leave a new address, so we can't contact her, can you please ask where she moved to? Also, I would like to ask you when you started living here?"

When I marveled at the fact that Kasuga could speak in such a normal tone, the administrator, who seemed to be a little behind his ears, kept answering with "what?" and "Ahhh Despite this, Kasuga still learned from the old grandfather that he was actually quite surprised by the sudden move of the Asakura family (I didn't see the moving company come at all, but all the furniture in the house was gone, which was really scared to death). ), and the Asakura family who moved in three years ago (I remember the pretty little girl who gave me a Japanese confectionery gift box!), and the fact that the family didn't take out a loan, but paid it off in cash at once (I guess they were very rich). And so on. Wow, you can be a detective.

The old man also seems to be happy to talk to a young girl like Haruhi.

"By the way, although I often see that beautiful little girl, I don't remember ever saying hello to her parents. ”

"I remember that the little girl's name seemed to be Sulfona, and she was a girl with a good temperament. And very polite!"

"I wanted to at least say goodbye to her...... It's a shame. By the way, you're cute, too!"

Hey, uncle, where are your hands going again!

When the old man seemed to be about to start talking about the same thing, Kasuga decided that it was impossible to get more information from him, so he politely saluted him and said:

"Thank you for your help. ”

Then he urged me to leave. In fact, I didn't need Haruhi to urge me to leave the apartment after her.

"Boy, that little girl will definitely become a big beauty in the future, don't let her escape!"

The old man's words are simply superfluous. I was worried about Haruhi, who I should have heard too, and I didn't know what the terrible reaction would be, but she continued to walk forward without saying a word, and I was also knowingly silent. After walking a few steps from the entrance, I happened to come across Nagato, who was carrying a plastic bag from a convenience store and a school bag. Nagato, who usually stays in the club classroom until the end of school hours, will appear here at this time, which must mean that she left the school immediately after I left today.

"Oh, you shouldn't live here too, do you?"

The fair-skinned Nagato nodded. Come on, that's a coincidence.

"Have you heard anything about Asakura?"

She shook her head.

"Yes. If you hear anything about Asakura, let me know. ”

She nodded.

I looked at the convenience store bag with canned food and dishes, and thought to myself, this guy can eat too!

"What's wrong with your glasses?"

Nagato didn't answer the question directly, just looked at me in silence. I was a little flustered by her, and Kasuga didn't think she would answer at all, shrugged her shoulders slightly, and walked away without looking back. I raised my hand and waved goodbye to Nagato. As the two of us passed by, Nagato suddenly said in a voice that only I could hear:

"I can't see anymore. Be careful. ”

Just as I turned my head to ask, Nagato had already entered the apartment.

I scratched my head. What is she talking about? What is she missing? Is it still a continuation of the previous high-dimensional space and future vision? I looked at Kasuga, only to see that she was chasing after Nagato like a thief.

What are you doing?

"It's weird! Nagato and Asakura live in the same building, but the rooms are two stories apart. Then Asakura suddenly transferred to another school and left, but Nagato said that she didn't know at all!

Well, the suspicion of the glasses part is actually superfluous.

"All in all, Nagato is very suspicious! I said she is very suspicious!"

Why don't you just ask her? You bring up what you think is suspicious and see how she answers.

"If you're a suspicious person, how can you tell me the truth!

Hey, you're overly nimble. If it was Nagato, I think I'd get a direct answer if I asked her directly. But Nagato won't tell Kasuga the truth. All in all, it's time to calm down Kasuga and stop causing trouble for Nagato.

"So, since Nagato doesn't want to say it, why do you have to go and find out? If you think about it, one is Nagato Sina and the other is Asakura Sina, and the two of them still live in the same building—this must be some very complicated family background, right? And then one of them suddenly changed schools, and it must have been because of some sudden change. Since Nagato's prevarication must be something that is inconvenient for outsiders to talk about, why can't you be considerate of some others? Is our club the kind of society that wants to break up other people's families and rub salt on other people's wounds? Even you should be able to clearly distinguish between what you can do and what you can't do! You are no longer a child, you are a high school student, don't be so willful, okay?"

Kasuga stopped. I thought she was going to get angry and use her knuckle to pull me in, or yell. But she stood there with her head bowed, muttering something.

"What did you say?"

"I said I got it!!"

Kasuga threw her bag directly over my head, then turned around and left the building where Nagato and Asakura were located. Normally, our after-school activities are to investigate the cause of Asakura's sudden transfer, is it time to end?I thought that now was the best chance to part ways with Haruhi, but I still kept up with her. Listen to me, I'm not a fool or a masochist, but now her bag is still in my hand. What did you say? You said you could just give her the bag, or give it to her tomorrow after school? No, because—

always felt that her last sentence seemed to be crying.

Eh, it's my fault, I'm talking too much. No matter how you say that Kasuga is also a girl, it will still be sad to be said like that. But I absolutely, no, take back the meaning of what I said before. Basically, Kasuga has been causing trouble for the people around him. Forcing the harmless otaku in the computer club to pay tribute to the computer, distributing strange flyers at school to cause chaos, bullying Asahina and making her change into a bunny girl suit and a maid outfit, these are all bad things she did - it's just too much to write!, in fact, the part about Asahina is not unforgivable.

On top of that, since she sat behind me, my high school life has been a mess. Not to mention how many bottles of oolong tea I asked him for to get Taniguchi out of his seat - eh? All in all, her presence is a nuisance to me. It's better for me to make it clear now, so I'm definitely not going to take my words back!

So, the task now is to find a clever angle to return the bag to her.

I walked aimlessly two or three steps behind Kasuga as I walked along the railroad tracks. If you continue like this, you will only get farther and farther away from home. Hey, where the hell are you going!

"I'm not going anywhere. ”

She replied. Very good, listening to the voice is very calm, no intention to cry.

I looked at the back of Haruga's head and said:

"Can I go home, then?"

At this time, she suddenly stopped, and her whole person looked like she was about to fall forward. Then, he looked at me with a white and cold expression like Nagato's.

"Have you ever felt like you're actually a tiny screw on earth?"

She didn't wait for me to react before she continued.

"I've had this experience and I'll never forget it. ”

Kasuga stood along the line along the railway, no, the trail began to talk.

"When I was in sixth grade, my family used to go to the stadium to watch baseball. I wasn't interested in baseball, but I was shocked when I got in, because there were people everywhere I looked. The spectators on the other side of the pitch looked as small as grains of rice, and they were constantly moving. At the time, I thought that people from all over Japan would gather in this space. So, I asked my dad how many people were there. My dad replied that it was 50,000 because the crowd was full, and the road leading to the station was packed with people after the race. Seeing that scene, I couldn't help but be stunned. There are so many people in front of you, but they are only a small part of the total population of Japan. I had learned that Japan has a population of more than 100 million people, so when I got home, I used my computer to do the math and found that 50,000 people is only 1/2,000 of the population. At that time, I was stunned again. It turns out that I am only one of the many people on the football field, and the number of people on the field seems to be only one of the total population of 2,000. Until then, I had always felt like a very special person, not only to be nice with my family, but also to have some of the most interesting people in the world in my class. ”

"But at that moment, I realized that it wasn't like that at all. What I thought was the happiest thing I experienced in my class actually happened in every school. For the people of Japan as a whole, there is nothing special. When I found out about it, I suddenly felt like the world around me had faded. Brushing your teeth at night and going to bed at night, getting up in the morning to eat, you can see this kind of thing everywhere. The thought that this is the ordinary life that everyone is living makes me feel so bored. I'm convinced that since the world has such a large population, there must be people among them who lead extraordinary and interesting lives, but why not me? I was thinking about this until I graduated from elementary school. It finally occurred to me that it was useless to wait for something interesting to happen. So, after I went to junior high school, I decided to change myself. I want the world to know that I'm not a girl who just waits, and I think I did my best, but the result is the same. In this way, before I knew it, I was promoted to high school, and I still believed that there could be some changes in my life. ”

Kasuga was talking like a contestant in a debate tournament. After finishing speaking, he regretted saying this, and looked up at the sky with an insulting expression.

The tram sped along the tracks. Thanks to the rumbling sound, I had time to think about whether I should continue to ask questions or use some philosophical arguments to perfunctory spring days. I subconsciously watched the tram departing after leaving with the Doppler Shift (a sonic effect) and said:

"Really?"

I feel a little sad that I can only say that. Kasuga gently pressed his hair blown by the wind of the train and said:

"Let's go back!"

With that, she walked in the direction she had come. Although it was quicker to get home from the direction where she left in the spring, her back was like a wordless announcement to me, "Don't come with me!". So I could only stay where I was and watch Kasuga leave until I couldn't see anyone.

Oh no, her bag is still in my hand.

What the hell am I doing?

When I got home, I found Kazuki Furuizumi waiting for me at the door of my house.

"Hello. ”

His smile, as if he had seen an old friend, looked a little hypocritical. Wearing a uniform and carrying a school bag, he looked like he had just finished class, and waved his hand at me enthusiastically.

"I want to fulfill the promise I made to you last time, so I'm waiting for you here. I didn't expect you to come back so early!"

"Listen to your tone. Should know where I just went. ”

Gu Quan smiled.

"Give me Suzumiya-san's bag. I advise you not to leave it in your home overnight, or our agents will have to be careful to steal it out. You also don't want to have your home invaded by some men in black in the middle of the night, then quietly rummaging through boxes and cabinets before restoring things to their original state. Also, if something like this is really a must, I'll remind them not to rummage through the second drawer under your desk. They also have no interest in your collections. ”

I had no choice but to hand him the bag in my hand.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to look at Suzumiya-san's personal belongings. But this bag contains a locator specially developed by our agency and some other things, which are kept secret from the people. ”

I looked at him suspiciously.

Before, too, he knew about my collection of soda bottle caps without telling him. I always felt like I was surrounded by agents and spies from their agencies. I began to understand the horrors of the so-called KGB. The thought of my daily life being watched and documented makes me feel uncomfortable from top to bottom.

"What are you going to do in the future? How are you going to give her the bag, or will I give it back to her the next day?"

Gu Quan shrugged.

"Just put it in her house, she won't care. Because she's not been in a good mood lately. ”

Well, you know her really well.

"Of course. When Suzumiya-san's mood is bad, the SH defense system will reveal a lot of monsters. Moreover, the best psychiatrists and experts in our country are studying the thoughts of Liangmiya-san. ”

Oh my God, that's a big scene.

Gu Quan patted me on the shoulder and spoke.

"Anyway, can I delay you a little? I want to take you to a place. ”

"Does it have anything to do with Suzumiya?"

"It's related to Liangmiya-san. ”

I opened the door of my house and put my bag in the hallway, and then told my sister who happened to show up that I would come back later. He walked back to Gu Quan.

A few minutes later, we were in the car.

Furuizumi stopped a taxi that happened to be passing in front of my house, and now the car is heading east along the national highway. When I first got on the bus, the name of the place that Furuizumi talked about was located in a metropolis outside the prefecture, so it would be cheaper to take the train, but he was the one who paid anyway, so it didn't matter. But I think he should also use public money, and he will be reimbursed in the end anyway.

"By the way, what do you mean by the promise?"

"Didn't you say that if I really have superpowers, I will be asked to show evidence, and now I just have this opportunity, so I want to ask you to be a companion!"

"Is it necessary to go that far?"

"Didn't I tell you before?SH defense system intercepts most of the monsters that invade Earth, but there will always be some that slip through the net. Now I'm going to take you to meet the fish that slipped through the net, so it's a little more convincing. You don't have to worry about your own safety, you're a non-combatant and we'll protect you. In addition, this monster was tested by us and found that it was not very strong. ”

"Wait, you said you were going to work yesterday, but you actually ......"

"That's right, there was a monster in a nearby county yesterday, so I went over and solved it. ”

"I mean, do you need to keep running around Japan all the time to deal with these slippery fish?"

Gu Quan glanced at me, then shrugged his shoulders.

"That's pretty much the case, but I can't handle the whole of Japan, but the two or three prefectures in the neighborhood are areas that I'm responsible for. Sometimes it's really terrible, I get tired from running around every day, and I have to fight monsters like that......"

Like that?

"Ah...... Nothing, nothing......"

Gu Quan suddenly waved his hand explicitly. He made me wonder what kind of monster he was fighting!

"All in all, things are a lot better now. You see, a monster that used to be completely crammed with even the streets, now I can take charge of such a large area by myself. These are the credits of Suzumiya-san. It may seem to you that she is a wayward little girl, a schoolboy who doesn't grow up at all, and doesn't look like a high school student at all—"

Hey, I didn't mean it that much!

"Huh? This is what was written in the report that was passed to me. Gu Quan shrugged, "All in all, I'm going to warn you. It's that kind of Suzumiya classmate, protecting billions of earthlings. Her SH defense system is there to protect you, your parents, your sister, and your classmates all the time. Three years ago, she volunteered to save billions of lives around the world. Therefore, no matter how willful she is, we will tolerate her. ”

Gu Quan's eyes were hidden under his bangs. He seemed to be glaring at me, but not very much. All the while, his expression suddenly became super cold, and he projected resentment at me, intentionally or unintentionally.

Hey, you like spring so much, you go play with her by yourself!

"I can't, all he needs is you. ”

Gu Quan seemed to be changing his face in a performance, and suddenly showed a cheerful smile again.

"All in all, you have to understand how important the SH defense system is to the entire planet. After that, you also have to understand how Suzumiya-san's mood will affect the SH defense system. Finally, you also have to understand how your own actions will hurt Suzumiya-san......"

I'm not as important as the first two. And why is it premised on me hurting Haruhi.

"Do you think you didn't hurt Suzumiya-san?"

Please, I just said something common sense.

"For Liangmiya-san, there is no common sense, and there is no need for common sense. Suzumiya-san, absolutely. ”

Gu Quan, who was silently chanting these words, was like a lower class sacrifice in that evil religion. Could it be that there has already been some SH cult or SH support association? That kind of small organization, which was originally just campus idols, was known to more and more people for some reason, and finally evolved into a strange scene of kneeling down and worshipping on the subway.

So, what the hell is going on? I just had a little conflict with Kasuga, and there was a little quarrel, as if there were thousands of people across the screen, through faxes, to see all this really well. The heads of state, with their heads wrapped in turbans with the name of Kasuga on their heads and small flags in their hands, watched with wide eyes as the high school girls threw their school bags in the faces of the high school boys, and then walked along the railroad tracks in a negative mood. Then the balding or double-chin leaders swung their fists in the air in a group of rage, ready to take me at any moment......

Hey, let me go.
