Under the starry sky, a man with glasses and a Sven appearance is using a paintbrush in his hand to sketch the beautiful night scene in front of him onto the drawing board. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo△，

"Wow~ The teacher is so amazing!" A little girl with a double ponytail shouted with adoration on her face.

"You're not bad, either." The man smiled and touched the little girl's head.

"I heard from my dad that there will be a sketch contest in Tokyo next month, so why don't you go too?" A little boy on the other side looked at the man wistfully.

"I'm sorry Masato, but the teacher doesn't want to participate in the competition."

Shaking his head apologetically, the man stopped his paintbrush and looked at the shinkansen passing in the distance, and said in the same tone, "Compared to the prosperity of Tokyo, it is more reassuring to raise me in my hometown." ”

"That's a shame~" Masato felt sorry for the teacher's decision.

"Hehe~"

"Teacher, look over there!" The little girl on the side pointed to the distance and screamed at the man.

"That'...... That...... That's ......" Looking at the white light that suddenly rose into the sky, he felt a slight tremor, and Masato was afraid that he couldn't speak.

"Masato, Noriko. Get out of here! The man pulled out his phone and said to the two children.

"What about you, teacher?" Noriko looked at the man with concern while panicking.

"Don't worry about the teacher, your safety is the most important thing!" The man dialed the citizen hotline without looking back.

Noriko and Masato glanced at each other, and at the same time threw down the things in their hands, came behind the man left and right, and pushed away the wheelchair that the man was sitting in.

"You ......"

The man came back to his senses from his stunnedness, and then unconsciously felt a wave of emotion in his heart.

-- Dividing line --

"Ding Dong ~ Ding Dong ~"

"It's coming!"

Aoba, who was eating breakfast, heard the doorbell and got up and walked to the door.

“~”

Mai's crisp voice suddenly sounded, startling Aoba.

"Mai? How did you get here? Looking at Mai in uniform, Aoba asked suspiciously.

"Why, this is also my home! Can't I even come to my own house? Mai feigned anger.

"Eh~ No, how could it be." Facing his sister, Aoba couldn't help but leave a drop of cold sweat......

"Okay Mai, stop teasing him." Another female voice sounded, and Aoba noticed Liang and Asuka standing next to Mai with a solemn face.

What's the situation? Why does this serious expression look so awkward on Asuka's face......

"Well, what are you looking for me? I'm still on vacation. Retracting his thoughts, Aoba smiled and made a "please" gesture to the three of them, motioning for them to enter.

"Wow~ brother, don't you really know?" Mai looked at Aoba with an exaggerated expression, and saw that the latter still looked puzzled. With a sigh, he pulled Aoba out the door.

"This ......"

Looking at the big pit in front of him, Aoba looked confused. Why was such a big hole dug in front of my house just for a sleep?!

"It's ...... What happened? Aoba looked at Mai and asked suspiciously.

"Well, in fact, there have been several such incidents in the past few days."

"Really?"

Aoba, who didn't know anything about those events, remembered his "vacation", and it seems that TPC has lost trust in himself. Thinking of this, Aoba couldn't help but sigh softly.

"Mai is right." Looking at Aoba's somewhat changed face, I thought it was because of myself and others. Liang spoke, "The first incident happened on the day you were called by the intermediary counselor. When we came back, we found out that you had already left the base, so we didn't notify you. But this is the first time this has ......"

"That's the case...... Aoba nodded, and then he thought of something and looked at Liang and asked, "You just said ...... 'this situation'?" ”

"Ah~ That's because the locations that have been reported before are all in the mountains or inaccessible areas, and this ......is the first time that such a population area is directly in the countryside," Liang smiled.

"That's why you came to learn about the situation from me, an 'eyewitness'." Aoba said with a chuckle.

"Yes, it's a pity that you don't know anything, brother."

"Sa~ Since we don't know the situation, let's find out." Aoba said confidently, turned around and walked home.

"Huh? Alas! ”

The three of them looked confused, this ...... That's not the right thing to say.

"I've got to change my clothes, can't I'm going to wear this?" Aoba's head popped out of the door and he pointed to the pajamas he was wearing.

……

"Ahem~ Asuka, Mai, let's go and take down the detector material first." Liang coughed lightly twice to hide his embarrassment, and beckoned the two of them.

"Okay, good senpai." Mai nodded obediently.

"Well, I have something to say to Aoba. You guys...... Go first. Asuka took a deep breath and said to Liang anyway.

"Fly, bird!"

Liang stared at Asuka word by word, took a few steps forward and twisted Asuka's ear and shouted, "Do you want to be lazy again!" ”

"Pain Pain Pain ......"

Asuka who was screwed in his ears couldn't help but cry out in pain, but he still insisted on pleading with Liang: "I'm not lazy, I really have something important to say to Aoba." Please, good seniors! ”

"What's the matter, isn't it the same with me?" Although he said that, Liang let go of Asuka's ears with his hand.

"That...... Ah~ There's a kid over there! Just when the birds rubbing their ears didn't know how to tell the difference, several children who lived nearby were curiously leaning down through the cordon. Seeing this, Asuka hurriedly pointed to the children to divert Liang's attention.

"Really, hey! You guys, it's dangerous, don't you know! Sure enough, following the direction of Asuka's finger, Liang saw the children and ran quickly towards them. Asuka smiled triumphantly, whistling and turned towards the Aoba family. As for Mai, she also rushed over with Liang to educate the children......

Midorikawa House

Since he didn't bring his uniform home, Aoba just changed into a sportswear and prepared to go out to meet Ryo. But......

"Asuka?"

"Aoba...... I ......"

"What's wrong? It's not like you're usual. Aoba looked at Asuka with some amusement as he stopped talking.

"I ...... Actually......" Asuka hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to speak.

"What!? You say, those big holes that suddenly appeared were not accidental, they were made by blue-robed people who didn't know their origins?! After listening to Asuka's words, Aoba thought solemnly.

According to him, they were earthlings from ancient times. Also, those big holes are just the ones they removed from the earth the ultra-ancient plant 'Zigera' that was sleeping underground......"

"That's it?" Hearing this, Aoba interrupted Asuka and said, "Then why didn't they appear sooner or later, but they came to Earth now!" ”

I asked him the same thing, but he asked me to help them. And ......," Asuka paused, and then continued, "and it's Dinah as my name!" ”

"And how did you decide?" Aoba looked up at the bird.

"Naturally, I refused! And then the guy just said, 'Please think about it again,' and then disappeared. Asuka replied as a matter of course, but it was a different thought in Aoba's ears......

"Asuka, you've been careful lately. I think...... Their patience may have run out......" With that, Aoba silently stared at the pit between the fields.

The storm is always preceded by calm. However, it seems that the calm of the moment is about to be broken......
