Chapter Sixty-Nine: The Tail Line?
A few days later, the renovation of the old school building was well underway. The main project of the current magic workshop is nearing completion, and all that remains is the mana source and connection. During these days, compared to Mawa and Beo, who were staying at home, Orange became very active and in a very good mood, and seemed to be satisfied with the temporary workshop of the fortress that was about to be built, and from time to time he went back to the school building drunk.
On this day, Orange went out with a soothing step, as usual, leaving the two in the school building.
Mawa doesn't mind staying, everyone has their own privacy, and even more so for magicians. Anyway, the last time he went out, he bought a lot of miscellaneous books to pass the time, and when he was bored, he could practice swordsmanship. After a few days of actual combat, I actually have a lot of insights in swordsmanship, which is an unexpected joy.
Beo couldn't do it, and he was stuffed at home for several days in a row, which made his body and mind almost dull, and he didn't even have entertainment - that's why he didn't refuse to compete with Maha. What's more, he was puzzled by the changes that floated on the orange's body and could only be smelled by wild beasts.
"Hey! Purple-haired! Seeing that the orange was gone, Beo rarely took the initiative to call Maha, you must know that the last time he was caught and tossed by Mayu and Pachouli, the two have been in a state of cold war.
"What's wrong?" Maha, who was reading a novel, didn't raise his head.
"Don't you think oranges are strange these days?" Beo smelled strange emotions in the orange's body, dazed and dull, only knowing what he liked and hated, what was delicious and what was unpalatable, he could not understand the subtle emotion, and he could not even express it in words.
"Hmm, strange? It's a little different, but it's nothing, you can understand it as a change in the mood of human beings, and an 'Avenger' will always be in a different mood on the eve of the implementation of the plan that has been planned for two years. ”
Unlike Beo, who has a blank slate, Mayu has some understanding of the situation. The change of orange has more to do with the acquaintance she met at the station, it seems to be someone from the Shallow Green Family, the Demon Dao family in this city? But the oranges are a little more calm now, which is a good thing, especially for the battle that is coming.
"Would you like to go and have a look?" After listening to Maha's explanation, Beo felt even more confused, and then made a suggestion.
"Tracking oranges?" Listening to Beo's words, Zhenyu was stunned, he really hadn't come up with the demon envoy in front of him to propose this action.
"That's right!" Beo stood up in human form and said with a smile, "Look where the oranges have gone all day, and why they emit that strange smell." Aren't you curious? ”
Beo, who made this suggestion, did not want to understand that emotion, but simply resented ignorance.
"Hmm......" Mayu closed the book and thought about it, and agreed. To be honest, his curiosity is quite high, and he is naturally curious about the changes in oranges.
"Let's go!" Beo walked out of the door with some impatience.
Mayu shook his head and followed.
It's early winter, the temperature is even colder, and pedestrians along the way are wearing thick winter clothes. This year's winter was earlier and colder than usual.
Today is a weekday, and at one o'clock in the afternoon, the staff has finished their lunch break and returned to their workplaces, and the students are in class, so the crowd on the street is dominated by housewives, and the air is filled with a sense of comfort. However, there is a striking and unusual point in this atmosphere. That's just an orange. With conspicuous clothes, beautiful face, and awe-inspiring intellectual temperament, she is the focus of attention when walking on the street.
"What...... And said that my appearance is conspicuous, and she is not the same? Beo muttered dissatisfied. He was left in the school building by Orange on the grounds that his foreigner appearance was too conspicuous - Orange, as the owner, seemed to be even more arrogant.
Mao Yu and Beo are more than ten meters behind Orange, both of them have their own means to cover their whereabouts, unless they show malicious intent, they should not be discovered by Orange.
"Although there is no malice, but why do I always have a subtle sense of a beautiful girl in the tail line?" Looking at the orange in front of him, Mayu had an inopportune thought.
Although Orange didn't use Runic runes or eye-sight props due to the lack of pedestrians, she definitely knew how conspicuous she was.
"That's why I can't understand her behavior!" Beo looked at Maha.
"Don't look at me, I don't know what to do." Maha's stall said he didn't know. He didn't lie, he didn't know why, and guessed, "Orange probably doesn't like to use similar magic tricks, right?" The suggestive magic that reduces your presence creates the illusion of being forgotten by the world, and when you walk down the street, the people around you ignore you and wander the bustling street like a ghost.
After visiting a few shops, Orange arrives at the door of a non-special house with a wrapped gift, and then she goes inside. On the door number at the door, the word "light onion" is hung.
Although it doesn't look special on the outside, Mayu feels that there is something abnormal about this house, but it is like a membrane that is not noticed.
"It's the smell of the tide...... Beo said what he smelled.
Misaki is a mountain town, and there is no doubt that there should be such a thing as tide, maybe something else. The two didn't mean to dig deeper, the original purpose was just to be curious, just follow behind and see. Waiting didn't make the two of them feel impatient, one is a fantasy species, the other is a very homely magician, and patience is never lacking. Probably because of the common goal, the relationship between the two has eased a little, and it can be regarded as an unexpected development.
The oranges didn't go in for long, and came out after about half an hour. Orange seemed to have completed a major task, stretched his waist towards the sky, looked like he had put down his burden, and with a relaxed smile on the corner of his mouth: "The matter is ready to end, and it is confirmed at the end of the day." Ah, what a hassle......"
"Well, that's what it tastes like!" Beo said to Mayu beside him, "It's obviously a bored tone, but it smells very happy." ”
Zhenyu rubbed his chin, with a thoughtful look: "It should be the ease and reluctance to say goodbye to the past self...... - the thinking mode of the orange, Zhenyu sometimes really doesn't understand, it's not as pure as him, and most of them have a strong sense of purpose.
"Hey, she's gone, let's follow!" Beo is playing the role of a stalker very much at this time, and now he is a little addicted to playing, he used to hold back in the school building for a long time, and now that he is liberated, he is naturally happy.
Orange's second target is that Mayu has met, and it is the Shuse Ritsu who they met just a few days ago.
For Zhou Se Ritsu, Zhenyu has a good impression, not the love between men and women, but purely feels comfortable being friends with her - her casual and tolerant personality is easy to be liked by the people around her. But well, the cute and off-line Shuze Ryujia faces the orange that likes to play tricks, and the result can only be teased, right?
