There is such an urban legend in Gensokyo...... No, Village Tales: What has been forgotten by the outside world—humans to be exact, will have a second life in Gensokyo. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

If we measure all the things that come into Gensokyo in this way—including creatures, objects, and even certain vocabulary concepts or habits that are no longer commonly used, etc.—it is clear that a large part of them is in line with rural legends, such as Suzuna-an's old magazines dated decades ago and apparently long forgotten by outsiders, but they are now borrowed by villagers, but the other part is clearly contrary to rural legends, such as the power grid that is slowly being built in Renli, Another part of the Kosuzu family's mountain of outside books and new magazines, the outside world's next-generation game consoles that I heard from Kaguya's show-off at the night party, the artifact of the Shinjin store of Korindo, and so on.

Although the power grid is not a new thing from the outside world, it is also at the request of the gradually increasing number of outside settlers by the kappa to provide engineering and technical support to start construction, so from the source it can be regarded as an outside inflow, as for the large black screen hanging in the middle of the Xianglin Hall house, that is, a new generation of town store artifact, it is a genuine new product from the outside world, and the accompanying manual shows that its official name is plasma TV, and the production time is December last year, But I couldn't make the connection between the large, flat, black-curtain outside machine and the small, elaborate black-and-white television I've ever seen, with convex screens, even though they seemed to be all televisions.

Now let's take a look at a few of the objects that triggered my thoughts about the changes in the outside world - the ancient book of youkai and Melly's academic pamphlet, in fact, including the flame cat Aichi who was sent to the outside world by Purple and a series of strange items that recently appeared in Xianglin Hall, all of which can make people curious about the outside world, but the strangest ones so far are the three books that are not likely to appear.

The two ancient books that teach people to identify medicinal materials and even refine medicinal materials are quite well preserved, and they can be preserved for a long time because they have obviously been processed by the holder's secret technique, so it is conceivable that whether the two books were passed on to the juniors by the original youkai senior, or picked up by the juniors by chance, they could not be discarded at will and eventually lead to the garbage dump or other inflow points in Gensokyo, so the question is, how did the two well-kept ancient books get lost from the hands of the custodians?

The above question is not easy for me to figure out for the time being due to the lack of information, so I will put it aside for the time being, and another question: How did one of the Melly Theories, which was published in small quantities by the University of Tokyo's partner press, end up in Gensokyo? I also don't understand that as a new theory book that has reached the level of collective publication, it can't be forgotten at once in the first place, and it is impossible to answer why it appeared according to the idea of rural legends, so could it be that some student or professor who bought the book accidentally lost it in a remote corner that might have been captured by Gensokyo? For example, the abandoned buildings of cities or the inaccessible mountain passes in the mountains that have not been visited for more than ten years are equally incomprehensible, and it is not normal to buy a new book and throw it in a corner where no one can find it.

I picked out what I was thinking about and told the clever witch around me in the hope of getting her opinion.

"My opinion doesn't matter, even if I stop you from thinking about those inconsequential clues, you won't give up the sense of plausible connection between the clues that your intuition gives you, I think it's the status of the Hakuri shrine maiden that makes you think about issues that were almost impossible to care about in the past, but these questions don't really mean much to the magician, and it doesn't mean much to Alice as a magician."

"Huh...... Patsy wants to tell me that what kind of position you sit in determines what kind of questions your head will think, and if you jump out of the scope of Hakuri Shrine Maiden's concern, the changes in the outside world, the things that flow in, and the changes in people really have little to do with me. ”

"If only you understood."

"But! It's impossible for me to stop caring about those changes now," I said, "and even if I leave the shrine maiden immediately, I think I'll be interested in those issues!" Does the magician have to ignore the changes in the world outside of himself, which will only make people go back to the miserable past of squatting at home! ”

"Is that so? If you have seen your position clearly, and you are not led by your ass to think, it makes sense to care about any problem. ”

"I can become a magician, I am also quite smart, how can I be forced to change my mind because of a temporary career."

"It seems that you understand quite well that the concern that your soul will be kidnapped by the 'Hakurei Shrine Maiden' may be unnecessary."

It dawned on me: "So Patchy thinks I've lost my mental freedom unconsciously?" So it's tempting me. ”

"There's a little bit of temptation."

"It's no wonder you've been knocking on the side to remind me not to forget the Magician's karma."

"If only you understood." She said a second time, "Since you're not kidnapped to think about those issues, I might as well have some suggestions. ”

"I'm finally back to the point, let's talk about Patsy's opinion."

"Putting aside what goes into Gensokyo, how do you think things from the outside world flow into Gensokyo?"

"Well, first of all, it appeared in common places like the edge of the Magic Forest and the edge of the bamboo forest for no reason, and then it was picked up by the owner of Xianglintang or Miss Sakiya or Marisa or something else, and finally that thing was either known or crushed at the bottom of the warehouse and no one knew about it."

"What you said is just the form of expression, the focus is on the inexplicability in the first sentence, what kind of way is the inexplicability, and then why the places where the items appear are mostly those locations including the unrelated mound."

"Ah, I know the point, but I just haven't thought deeply about the mechanism or method that appeared, it's better to say that in the past, even if I tried to figure it out."

"And now?"

"I probably don't understand, but I asked Purple out of curiosity before, and she said that the reason for the inflow of items or people from the outside world is that the Boli enchantment will weaken irregularly and immeasurably, resulting in a border with a certain location outside, and when the border effect weakens and disappears, the items in the outside location are left within the boundary of Gensokyo."

"Do you think that's credible?"

"It's quite implausible, it feels like the official rhetoric of a layman, first of all, she hasn't explained what the Boli enchantment is, let alone what the concept of the weakening of the enchantment is, so her explanation seems to be quite versatile, and many problems can be applied, and she seems to be trying to dispel other people's curiosity with that intuitive explanation...... That way, she has a clean ear and doesn't have to waste time explaining more complicated things to others! I see!. ”

"It's obvious, don't just take it personally."
