The fruits of victory at your fingertips are always uncontrollable.

（…… It went really well. ）

The man in casual clothes with his back to the corner of the alley snorted, his relaxed expression mixed with sarcastic pleasure.

Although a fool seems to have been exposed, the 'obstacle' is even smaller than expected.

'Work' is coming to an end.

(Is this the only way to so-called cutting-edge technology cities......?) ）

The man raised his chin wordlessly.

He, or rather, they are typical of the employed, as long as someone is willing to pay for it, even in crowded places to prepare large 'fireworks'.

As for the purpose of the employer, that doesn't matter at all, does it?

The man let go of the corner of his eye.

Not far from him, there were still crowds of people gathered in twos and threes.

Although the guards set up a cordon around the perimeter, many of the customers and employees who were dispersed did not leave, and remained on the perimeter to wait for the incident to end.

There were also some good people who happened to be attracted to the city and wanted to know what was going on inside, but apparently no one could answer their questions.

Curiosity is both a natural human nature and a natural enemy.

The man who had led to his inner conclusion slowly put his hand in his pocket.

Inside, it can be switched on and off by everyone present.

(By now, the 'goals' should be all there.) ）

He smiled, like a visitor looking forward to the opening of the fireworks show.

Next......

Yes.

Just press down gently......

“………………”

That's when it happened.

There was a break in thinking for a few seconds.

The reason is that the hand he reached into his pocket squeezed out the empty touch.

“…… Well? ”

As soon as this question came to mind, some kind of suffocating conceivable accident continued to infect the man's breath.

…… Nope.

'That thing' is missing?

How is this possible?!

His body wrapped in cold sweat began to roll rapidly, but his hands still couldn't find an answer.

The man was sure that he would never go wrong in this matter.

Just a few minutes ago, he had personally confirmed the existence of 'that'.

But.

There is no doubt that the status quo is moving in an uncertain direction.

No.

Possible.

"I said, that gentleman over there, you're looking for ......"

Someone seemed to raise their hand slightly behind their back.

"'It'?"

“——！”

This moment.

Rather than thinking about how things disappeared with doubts and uneasiness, the man's long professional experience still made him make a decisive judgment at the first time, and stretched out the weapon in his arms.

It's a pity.

- [Stand there.] 】

Just a word.

Everything the man did lost its meaning under the 'orders' of 'her'.

Sudden footsteps began to draw closer, until the figure had completely crossed his side and stood in front of him.

It's a slender blonde girl.

But the brain that is still active is desperately trying to erase the impression of common sense.

"Don't put on this kind of expression, you are also doing this business in secret, you should always be mentally prepared, right? Rather, you can still stand here with your limbs intact now, thanks to 'me'? ”

A good-looking girl naturally speaks words that are well versed in this world.

“…… Tut. ”

The man smacked his tongue and asked as if giving up his barely movable mouth.

"How did you find out about me, and at least let me lose it?"

"Ah, that's what you mean."

Observing the next direction, the girl replied as if she was going to kill time.

"You're from outside the school city, right? Even so, you've probably heard of "MetalDetector", right? ”

Of course.

The man said secretly.

The fact that the people of the garrison had no way to find out that the bomb was just the best unrealistic outcome, and he never counted on it.

"In that case, isn't there a way to solve the problem?"

The girl who took the man's acquiescence as an answer continued.

"After locking the location, even if it is a dead end, you just need to 'screen' all the people who pass through that area."

"After excluding the usual students, tourists, and staff, how many suspicious people are left?"

She easily added to it.

"What's more."

"You've got a lot of holes in your fake identity, Mr. Criminal."

The girl who gestured to the surveillance camera beside the two smiled, and unhurriedly put away the remote control that the man had 'taken the initiative' to hand over when they first met.

If he could have paid attention, he would have found that he had lost some of his memories from the subtle changes around him.

But at this moment, the one-sided audience focused on the girl's explanation.

"Are you serious? In such a short period of time? From so many people? ”

There should be a limit to laughter.

The man curled his eyes, he felt that he had been fooled.

But.

"Do I have to lie to you?"

The girl who easily restrained herself asked rhetorically.

Then, under the man's unacceptable and incomprehensible gaze.

Gracefully, she put her index finger to her mouth.

"If you underestimate the greenhouse flowers, you will hurt."

……

……

The garrison vehicle escorting the bomb prisoner slowly moved away.

When the alert was lifted, the billboard at the family restaurant was replaced with a recommendation for the evening market.

Just as agreed, the guards were responsible for defusing the bombs, and Flanda, a former member of the 'Discipline Commission' and now a 'Keen Citizen (Lv5), was guided by the early spring to take the lead in controlling the prisoners.

Everything went smoothly.

The only pity is.

Now, it's past the time to enjoy afternoon tea at a leisurely pace.

The girl sighed helplessly.

And.

If it's just 'this kind of participation', if it becomes a symbol of 'debut', no matter which side is probably not 'satisfied'.

This is also something that Flanda did not expect.

Perhaps, Chu Chun's ability and potential may be even stronger than she expected.

The girl thought with her chin against her chin, and then looked at the junior of the Discipline Inspector who was sitting on a bench in the shade of a tree, soothing her nerves, and muttering 'Ha, my Parfait'......'.

To be precise, she was the one who was the one who solved the incident.

So.

"Here, it's hard work."

"Ah...... Thank you! ”

Hatsuharu, who brought the crepes over, hurriedly thanked him.

This is also a popular delicacy that is more common in the school city.,At least among students, it's quite popular.。

Taking her share, Flanda also sat down next to her.

The afternoon of people coming and going, and the disturbed afternoon, finally ushered in the peace it deserved.

“…… I always feel ...... It's very similar to that time......"

Looking calmly at the revitalized street, the girl with a garland of sweets in her hands whispered to herself unconsciously.

The things that the two experienced together during the Daba Star Festival last year seem to be still in front of them.

"Yes."

Another person involved was similarly relieved by the memories.

"At that time, you were indeed a little panicked, and you were tricked by children because of physical problems, and even the report was sent to the wrong place."

"Hey...... Hey hey ......"

The shy schoolgirl who buried half of her face under the snack was obviously still a little embarrassed.

was obviously listening to his past troubles, but his mood was happy for some reason.

The slightly pursed lips moved lightly, and the early spring seemed to want to say something.

"Still."

However, the words ringing in her ears made her swallow all the questions for the time being.

There was the warmth of being patted on the back.

"In the future, you can hold your head a little more high."

“……！”

(Ahhh...... ）

The world that has been pushed seems to have a new look.

I want to convey the words.

And this longing, all here, at this moment, has received the best encouragement and support.

Already, there is no need to ask for anything.

She knows it well.

(Even if it is...... If I don't become a member of the Discipline Committee, my seniors will definitely continue to help others in places I don't know. ）

Only this is the only thing that early spring is extremely sure of.

The junior girl's eyes gradually softened, and at the same time she nodded with a firm throw.

“…… Well! ”

Although the sun is at the time of exchanging with the night.

But the flowers will continue to grow.
