……

The matter goes back to what happened a few hours before Tianyu and the others set off. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Satsuki suddenly appeared at the station at eight o'clock in the morning, panting.

At first, I thought they were seeing me off. However, after discovering that Satsuki was carrying a large handbag, he guessed that she happened to have something like himself and had to travel far away.

As far as common sense is concerned, no matter how much Satsuki's parents trust me, it is impossible for their daughter, who is only a sophomore in high school, to go with him and have to stay out with him, and her father, Fei Suya, does not trust me at all.

Although this is not a part-time job for men, I still have no idea at this moment that Satsuki's destination is Arashi Beach.

"Is Satsuki going out too? Let's all go on the same road before we get to the city."

"No, we'll be together later."

After entering the station through the automatic ticket gate with Tianyu, Satsuki replied cheerfully.

Then, in less than thirty seconds, Doudou knew the reason why Satsuki was happy.

"Good morning, Satsuki. What's going on with the three people behind you? Especially Katir has no energy at all."

"Satsuki-san, we've been waiting for you for a long time. It's a coincidence that you've met them."

Yu Xin and Lingyin were sitting together on the bench on the platform facing the station.

As for Maiko and I, we were stunned and speechless for a while.

As for Katier, she seems to be unenergetic, and it seems that she can't relax when she goes to the beach to let her work.

Since Doudou and the others went out early in the morning, they didn't say hello to Suzune.

No matter how you look at it, Yu Xin and Ling Yin made an appointment in advance to ambush here.

And judging from the fact that they deliberately only greeted Satsuki, and pretended to meet us and others by accident, it was obvious that they were playing tricks on a few of us for fun.

Especially when there was a big luggage foil in front of the two. You must know that this is the era of the popularization of Rubik's Cube technology, and such a large suitcase can at least hold no less than a car in the 21st century.

That's right. The two of them were definitely planning to come along.

"It's not just to the city, it's even to the Arashi Beach. But don't worry, I do have my mother's permission."

Satsuki said as if announcing the answer.

At this point, Maiko and I were still in amazement. How can there be parents in the world who would allow such a thing? And she just seemed to be talking about mom, right? Her dad couldn't have consented???

"Did you misunderstand something?"

Lingyin, who was sitting on the bench, sneered and looked up at the bewildered Doudou and the others.

"Although the destination is Arashi Beach, Satsuki doesn't want to go with you, but to go out with us."

「…… That's how."

Sophistry should be done in moderation.

"Anyway, what the hell do you want? Don't you want to stay at Arashi's beach for two weeks?"

was asked by Doudou like this, and Yu Xin on the side answered with ease!

"Really! What does two weeks mean? We're just going to visit the area with three girls. Why would you think we're going to stay that long? I guess there's some guilt on the part, right?"

Yu Xin said ill-willedly, although Tianyu also glared at Yu Xin with a displeased face.

"Tianyu senior, listen to me!"

But as soon as she saw the excited Satsuki, she couldn't have a seizure.

"We're going to the beach next!"

I determined the whole situation in a split second, and immediately hung my head weakly.

About an hour passed after that......

Doudou, Satsuki and others, who set off from the front of the station, looked up at the scenery of the new era at the front station, changed to the express line, and ate a lunch box on the platform while arriving at the terminal station and waiting for the shuttle bus from the main line to Xiangshan.

Just when the group went to prepare for the train to Xiangshan and passed through the city near the terminal station-

Katir sat by the window, silently looking at the scenery outside the window. Without words, she looks like a compassionate saint, and at this moment he really looks like a little goddess.

But if you know her heart, she just doesn't want to work...... Hehe..................

Yu Xin, Xiao Yue and Ling Yin, the women who just occupied the four-seater shared the snacks as if nothing happened.

As for me and Maiko, luck wasn't so good.

The two of us sat across the aisle in another four-seater, two burly characters who looked like boxers! Sitting across from us made us feel very uncomfortable, both physically and mentally.

As the time gradually moved away, the radio of the upcoming arrival at the terminal station of Xiangshan began to be alumized in the tram, so that passengers were ready to get on the train.

……

On the platform of the Xiangshan Electric Railway, I was really a little unbearable, and I directly prepared for a showdown!

Some of the green muscles said to the bell who was looking up and staring at him!

"Regardless of Satsuki, who was already interested in this place, you should almost admit what your purpose is here. Anyway, you must be planning to use Satsuki as an excuse to pester us."

In contrast, the bell tone is deaf and goes straight to the point.

"yes, that's right. Who knows what good things you will do when you are out of our sight. It's best not to think you'll be able to escape our surveillance. I hope that you can also act in accordance with your conscience in this land far away from the Blue Ocean Academy."

"You guy, I'm a good student who walks around with conscience and sincerity."

"You forgot to add a negative textbook."

That's right, it's completely irrefutable.

"Since you've said so, don't expect my negative textbook to make a judgment that conforms to your conscience, are you mistaken?"

"Hmph. I've repeated it many times, we just happen to be traveling to the same destination. Okay, don't worry about us, let's go to the place where we work."

"I said......

No matter what they think, Suzune and the others will follow them all the way to the Sea House.

"Celestial Language...... Hurry up, you can go."

At this time, Maiko's cry came. As for Katier, she boarded the tram in a slow motion and collapsed on the seat in the car again.

Yu Xin and the others were originally expected to be tracked, but as they said, they shouldn't be able to stay here for too long.

Anyway, it's only a few days at most, and the patience will pass. Don't worry about them!!

Hawkers! It's also for a better future.

「…… I feel like there's a different atmosphere, and it's called a ticket."

As she listened to Maiko's admiration for the ticket, she took a thin slip of paper from his hand, which was a ticket that carried all the names of the stations on the electric railway, and looked like it could be easily torn by hand. That's when --

"Little guys, is this your first time riding the electric railway?"

"Huh?"

Doudou was taken aback by the sudden accosting of someone.

I saw that beside me, at some point, an old gentleman with crane hair on his head and a small green bag appeared.

"It looks old, it scares you, doesn't it? Young people are not used to this kind of thing."

"Ah, uh, that ......"

Although the other party approached this side cordially, I didn't know the old man at all, so I didn't know how to respond.

"But it's the most popular color. There are so many different types of trains from all over the world, so I miss that there are so many different types of trains."

"Missing...... Is it?"

"We're used to seeing it every day, but it's rare to see such an old tram running now. The high-speed electric model was completed in 2015 and continues to run today."

The old gentleman said proudly as if he were praising his family.

"Despite facing several existential crises, thanks to the arrival of many young people like the little brothers, and the efforts of local young people, these trams have been widely loved by everyone. Thank you so much."

We didn't do anything in particular, and I said that in terms of age, it was also a multiple of this old gentleman, but since the other party was already immersed in the emotion of memories, I had to vaguely echo if I didn't want to disturb him.

"Are the little brothers here for sightseeing? Where are you going next?"

"Ah, that's right. But it's not so much about sightseeing......

"yes, the rising sun from there is beautiful. I watch it every day, but I still feel like my heart is washed every time. Well, after all, when people get older, they get up early."

"Uh-huh......

Having said that, Li Xinyou also seems to have mentioned that you can go from Xiangshan to Lan Beach, and it is also the first place to see the sunrise in the whole eastern district.

"Ah, when you think of Elephant Mountain, you think of Daifuku. If you get there, go eat and see. It's delicious."

After that, the old gentleman talked to Doudou until the departure time, but thanks to this, he escaped Lingyin's investigation.

Although I was a little confused at first, I heard a lot of information about sightseeing along the electric railway line from the old gentleman.

Even Xiaoyue, Lingyin and Yuxin joined the conversation halfway, and although they didn't know each other, they still chatted in this subtle way.

As soon as the time of departure came, carrying the goddess, the former rain god and the human electric railway began to move forward cautiously.

Although the population density inside the car is not as low as that of the monorail, from where I sit, I can clearly see the driver's seat and the direction of travel.

"Wow! It's a wooden tunnel!"

As soon as Satsuki saw this, she let out a familiar cheer.

"This...... It's kind of like an adventure."

"Uh-huh......

Lingyin and Yuxin couldn't help but sigh.

Under the midsummer sun, the tram walks through a green tunnel decorated with mountain forests.

Summer flowers bloom along the tracks, and although it is an old polonium-like train, the sound of the body of the car when it goes uphill contains a strong force enough to be called a steel carriage.

Even small level crossings are lined with simple overhead tram lines and concrete poles.

For Maiko, Lingyin and Yuxin, who only know written records, this is the "sense of the times" that they have never experienced in person.

Hawkers! It's nothing to me, though, and it feels like it was yesterday to me.

"It's nice to feel different."

The old gentleman nodded with a smile on his face, which must have been Maiko's unconscious feelings.

"I'll just say it!"

After that, the old gentleman got off at an unmanned station.

"We didn't even ask his name."

After the tram left, Yuxin muttered in a low voice.

"It's okay, this is the so-called Pingshui Encounter. For us, that old gentleman is like a sense of the times, although we can touch it, we can never keep it in our hands."

「…… What are you talking about. Is it so hot that your head breaks?"

Reine said rude words.

After the tram passed through several areas, Doudou and his party finally arrived at the westernmost point in the eastern district - Xiangshan.

"This station, it looks like it's been a bit of work."

Maiko, who got out of the car first with her luggage, couldn't help but wipe her sweat and said.

The exterior wall of the elephant station is covered with white tiles that resemble the southern European style.
