CHAPTER XLVII
There have been fears in recent days, and there are rumors that the PLA has taken Osaka, and the next target is Nagoya. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ The number of SDF soldiers in the city has also been increasing, and yesterday their helicopter gunships were seen on the streets.
In that case, shouldn't I leave as soon as possible?
But where can they go? I don't have much money with me. Even if you have money, you can't find a way to get out of the city. Now, I can only hide in this old friend's house, quietly waiting for the battle to end in a few days. After that, I should be able to return to Europe.
I really don't know what the owner of this house is doing now? There has been no news since he joined the army, may God bless him to survive the battlefield.
Alberta and Edda should be okay too? Finally received a signal, only to be on the news about a massive anti-EU riot in London. Isn't Europe too peaceful? Alberta is an aristocrat, could something happen?
The room was suddenly plunged into darkness. Starr sighed and fumbled for the candle. It was about a week ago, and the power supply here was very unstable, running out of power every now and then, and candles, which she had never used except for her birthday party, became a necessity. On top of that, an old-fashioned stove she found from a thrift store also helped with food problems in the event of a power outage.
Originally, it was used as a tourist souvenir, but who knew that it would actually come in handy?
It was amusing to her imagination of the stove talking happily. Holding the candle in her left hand, she raised her right index finger, and a small flame suddenly appeared less than a centimeter above her index finger, and then it was suspended in mid-air. She brought the candle close to the flame, lit it, then shook her hand to shake the flame off her index finger and fastened the candle to the table with wax oil. The dim glow of the candles illuminated the small room.
If you put more time into cultivation, will you become like those magicians in the novels and comics, using powerful destructive magic, instead of just a small flame that will collapse after a long time?
Misty Rain Starr knows magic. It's not a lie, it's real magic as described in the book. The small flame on the index finger is one example, and the others are the beams that hurt a person (at the cost of prostration), which can slightly lower the temperature and cause a layer of frost on the surface of the object (at the cost of three days of high fever), and so on. The little flame just now, or rather, the fire magic, should be the one she is most skilled at. As for the cost......
"It's so cold......"
Feeling out a quilt, Sidar wrapped herself in the whole body. She began to rub her hands together and take two breaths to keep warm.
"How long will it take, this war ......?"

"Hey, isn't it scheduled for next month? How long has it been?"
"I can't help it, and I didn't hold this party. However, can you not talk like you guys?" Wang Yulin complained with some dissatisfaction, "Aren't the two of us a couple?"
"When we connected, we spoke quite openly, because the passwords were all set in advance. Only some newcomers were so weak that they didn't dare to say anything when they went out on their first mission. Ge Chengzhi still kept his voice down.
"Like you are now?"
"That's right, my first mission was like this. But is it really okay for you, the person in charge of a major project, to run out of the base without permission? This will be a big obstacle to our security work. β
"Don't be so unconfident, didn't you send a lot of people to the banquet? Wang Yulin put a chopstick dish on Ge Chengzhi's plate, "You say, how does the squad leader know that everyone doesn't like that kind of magnificent banquet very much? β
"Who's the squad leader? The squad leader is the squad leader. He's the only person in my life that I admire. Think about it, who are the people in our class? A group of guys who were all called ** by Xiao Wei except me!Who could manage it at that time? Only the squad leader! Can you do it without some ability?" Ge Chengzhi took a sip of the drink in the cup - if he was drunk, it would have a great impact on the mission, "In addition, when I said security work, I mean the security inside the base. Most of the base personnel are on vacation this time, which makes it a little difficult for the dark sentinels to work. β
"These things are written into the plan in advance, and when the first stage is successfully completed, you will have to take a three-day vacation, don't you even look at it when you arrange the work? Anyway, the security work is your business, although I am the general director, but the daily research is enough to bear, but I can't manage so much. Wang Yulin glanced at the other party, "In addition, what Xiaowei said should be specifically referring to you, right? Don't involve us in it, okay." Do your family know about it?"
"Well, of course I can't tell them. It's no different from being dead in this job, so it's better to let them treat me as dead. Ge Chengzhi smiled bitterly, "Actually, I don't want you to know, if one day I really die in the mission and then make you, the only ordinary person who knows the truth, sad alone, it will really go against my aesthetics." β
"How can you talk about this, since you don't want me to be sad," Wang Yulin suddenly put her lips to Ge Chengzhi's ear, "Promise me, don't die no matter what, just do it." β
"Ah, yes, it's me who complicated things. Ge Chengzhi smiled and took a bite of the dish, "I promise you, you will never die." β
"Yo, what are the little two talking about secretly? Do you dare to tell it to everyone?" suddenly put a hand on each of their shoulders, "But no matter how many times, I feel that Mr. Wang is so similar to our classmate......"
"Ah, Yulin has said it many times. Ge Chengzhi put on a standard smile and scratched his head.
"Okay,, you don't make a fuss. β
"What, worried that your boyfriend will be jealous? Then he is not qualified to be your boyfriend at all!" The man called bumped Ge Chengzhi on the shoulder, "Are you right, man?"
"Quite right. Looking at the face of his old classmate, Ge Chengzhi's heart suddenly burst into sourness. He resisted the feeling and replied with a smile still on his face.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey. Standing on this huge stage, Ge Yiwei adjusted the microphone and sound sponsored by Youkai Mountain, "I haven't used this kind of traditional thing either, so it seems that there should be no problem...... Sound engineer, try the soundtrack. β
The Tengu sound engineer in the audience made a gesture that was okay. She picked up the combat unit next to it, plugged the data cable into an interface, and then adjusted the various sliders on a table for a while. Immediately, a huge sound came out from the speakers on both sides of the stage: "The 36th National Broadcast Gymnastics ...... for Primary and Secondary School Students"
"Stop!" Ge Yiwei jumped off the stage and put the microphone aside, "Then there should be no problem." Take a break, it's time to start in an hour. β
The venue for this joint festival is still set at Hakurei Shrine, for the simple reason that humans on earth can't fly, and it's too reluctant for them to walk to Mt. Yokai. The stage for the "main show" (set by some guys) is set up under the high ground where the shrine is located. From here, you can see that along the road from the earth to the shrine, many stalls have been erected.
"It's a festival...... Isn't it actually a temple fair?" Looking at these stalls, Ge Yiwei muttered quietly.
"Xiaowei, what are you still doing here? Hurry up and prepare your own show!"
Ge Yiwei turned around: "Yo, boss, I haven't seen you a few times in the past few days except for dinner." You're wearing a shrine maiden costume?...... good."
"I'm a shrine maiden anyway, so of course it's nice to wear a shrine maiden costume. β
"It looks so much warmer than what you normally wear. That's what to wear in autumn, isn't it? I think I can wear cotton clothes, right? It's good, it's good, and the winter clothes are also falling. Ge Yiwei looked up and down the clothes on Reimong's body, "You just said that you would compete, what kind of competition did you participate in, and did you have a competition?"
"Of course, what did I ask you to prepare for the show?" Reimu gave Ge Yiwei a direct head for a moment, "Remi said that the winner of the competition can get a lot of prize money!
"Is it a bonus? Enough venue fees for the kappa are charged?"
"Of course it's not enough!" Reimu waved his hand imposingly, "Of course, the more money the better!
"Instead of buying a kotatsu, it's better to buy an electric heater. Where are you going to spend the venue fee?"
"It always costs some to fix the roof, right?
"Save it, what are you doing with it, cubs, and besides, don't you have a good voice, why don't you compete?"
"Ah, because I'm a shrine maiden at the shrine and the initiator, if I participate, it will make people suspect that there is a shady scene in the competition, right?"
ββ¦β¦ Then why won't I, a subordinate of the shrine, be suspected of shady behavior by others?"
"No matter what, I'm going to introduce you to your next few strong opponents now, you have to remember it well......"

Anyway, an hour later, the game began. Rinnosuke Mori, who wore glasses, took the pre-written manuscript and read it out in a stiff tone without any ups and downs:
ββ¦β¦ We would like to thank the Red Devil Pavilion and Yokai Mountain for their support. Now, let's introduce the judges. First of all, there is the eldest lady of the Red Devil Pavilion, the provider of the tournament prize, Remilia Scarlett. β
"The lights didn't keep up. Offstage, Ge Yiwei began to comment on the staff, "Bad reviews." β
"The second, the master of the Eternal Pavilion, the princess of the moon, Penglai Mountain Kaguya. β
"The doctor's boss, I've been to the Eternal Pavilion so many times and I've never seen this guy. β
"The third, the envoy of the Dragon Palace, Yongjiang Yijiu. β
"I really want to ask her where the Dragon Palace is, and take the time to take a turn. β
"Next, please invite the first contestant, who is ...... than the famous Son of Heaven."
"Having this guy as a host was definitely a wrong choice boss. Ge Yiwei said to Reimu, who was sucking tea, "Why don't you let the doctor come? β
"Oh, Yonglin, why is she more suitable to be the host?"
"Because she's a person who can act. Ge Yiwei pulled a chair over and sat down, "The role of the host must be able to adjust his performance through the atmosphere of the scene. A tone like Mori Rinnosuke's can't mobilize anything at all. He is more suitable to be a narrator of a popular science program. The first player came on the field. β
On the stage, all the lights converged on the son of Ju Tianzi, who bowed and began her performance.
"Just like at that banquet, the Son of Heaven danced so well. Marisa somewhere got a bucket of popcorn and sat down on the other side with relish - in every sense, "Do you eat it?"
"No, I've been getting hot lately. We're definitely not going to be able to do this dance - I can only comment so much as a layman. As for what is good, I can't really say what is good for me, a science student with basically zero art cells. It's ......"
"It's just that it feels good, but I can't describe it, right? Finally, there are people who feel the same way as me. Marisa nodded happily.
"See if there is Xiaowei, she is the number one enemy. At this time, Lingmeng stared directly at the Son of Heaven on the stage, and Ge Yiwei actually found hostility in her eyes, "The Celestials are the most leisurely people in Gensokyo." They live a leisurely life of appreciating music, fishing, and playing board games all day long, without having to work at all...... It's hateful, it's hateful, Xiaowei, let's organize an uprising to fight the local tyrants, oh no, to fight the heavens and men to divide the land. β
"Then I decided to join the *** organization. It's not called an uprising at all, it's called chaos. Ge Yiwei raised his forehead, "However, a group of people who can be idle to this extent, their level of entertainment should have been honed to a point beyond the reach of our people...... And then you actually let me win? It's impossible without shady. β
"Don't lose confidence! Everything is not over yet, how can we lose first! Tactically despising the enemy and strategically valuing the enemy is the right thing to do. β
"Well, you can do it on the battlefield, and I'll collect your body. Ge Yiwei also picked up the teacup, "If the body can still be found." β
