3:20 p.m.

In the school city,The door of the 177th branch of the Discipline Inspection Committee was opened again.。

“…… Good afternoon, excuse me. ”

Inside, the little girl with a wreath carefully lowered her backpack and whispered hello to the only office worker in the room.

"Good afternoon, Chunchun-san."

Nodding his head, Gufa Meiwei, who saw the ruddy little face, put down his hand supporting the table and stood up from his position.

Although it has entered February, the temperature of the season is still in the stage of winter and spring, and scarves and gloves are still the main force for everyone to keep warm.

"Do you want something to drink? Coffee or milk? ”

Picking up the cup specially prepared for the juniors on the right-hand side, Gufa Meiwei asked in a friendly manner.

"Ahh Thank you! You're welcome, I'll just drink water! ”

The thin-faced Chu Chun hurriedly shook her hand, although it was not the first time she had gotten along, her performance was still a little restrained.

After all, this is the future senior and boss.

If nothing else, in a little more than a month, she will be officially transferred here after being promoted to Zhachuan Middle School and become a member of the Discipline Inspection Committee of the 177th Branch.

As soon as he thought of this, the little one couldn't help but straighten his sitting posture, and a little excited.

Merely......

“…… That one...... Gufa predecessors, is it also a person today? ”

After sitting for a while, Chu Chun, who didn't see several other acquaintances, asked subconsciously.

Obviously, the work of this semester is coming to an end, but the recent branch is always uncharacteristically deserted.

"Ah...... They......"

Putting down the steaming teacup, Gufa Meiwei, who was sitting next to the computer, lifted his glasses and explained in a rather complicated tone.

"Shirai-san went for a physical check-up, after all, she went to that prestigious girls' school, Tokiwadai Junior High School."

"And she was originally sent to our branch to study and study, and it is not clear what will be arranged after that."

Under the glittering gaze of early spring, Gufa Meiwei sighed faintly.

To be honest, she also admires Shirai Kuroko, a little guy with outstanding ability and a somewhat proud personality, but I don't know if the above will agree to keep her in this branch.

You must know that this little guy is a rare teleporter, and he has reached the level of Level 4.

Counting the other Level4 ace of their branch and her Level3, the high-level ability on the surface is already saturated.

The '177 Branch' is not an important regional branch, and it is likely that the Headquarters of the Discipline Inspection Commission will not approve her report.

But well......

Now is unlikely, 'the future'...... It's not entirely impossible.

Gufa Meiwei had a wry smile on his face.

Because.

"As for Flanda......"

"She said she was going to prepare for the entrance exam for 'Fog Hill' next month, so she probably didn't have much time to report on it lately except when she was on patrol."

The glasses senpai looked at someone's seat.

I didn't expect that the thing that sat here a few months ago and talked and laughed would become a reality so quickly, which still made her feel emotional.

What's more, compared to a certain 'Liu Forced senior' who values love more than work, even if Flanda doesn't come to the branch, the daily patrol report and information processing work are completed well, and they are all transmitted to the branch's computer on time.

To let such a responsible and capable junior be transferred, Gufa Meiwei is really reluctant.

But since her juniors have made a choice, and it is also a famous school like 'Fog Hill', as her senior, the only thing she should do is to send support and blessings without delay.

Gufa Meiwei gently closed his eyes, feeling the warm aftertaste in his mouth.

But just as she reopened her eyes and was ready to return to her seat to get back to work.

A pair of larger, brighter eyes rushed in front of her.

"Huh?! Fog Hill?! Is it the "Fog Hill"?! ”

The voice of the garland girl was not submissive, but suddenly became enthusiastic.

There's no way, once this kind of topic related to 'Miss' appears, the children who are extremely eager for the early spring will always behave uncomfortably.

"Hmm...... That's right, it's the star school that can keep up with Tokiwadai Junior High School. ”

"'Kirigaoka Women's College'......"

Taken aback by Chu Chun's reaction, Gufa Meiwei nodded slightly and explained again.

"Hey...... Shirai-san, too...... And Severen's predecessors......"

"That's nice...... Tokiwadai Junior High School ...... Isn't that nice...... Kirigaoka Women's College...... Isn't that nice...... Miss School! Hey, hey, hey......! ”

Looking at the new junior who fell into strange delusions, Gufa Meiwei didn't know why, so he had to try to pull her back to reality.

"That, Hatsuharu-san?"

“…… Yes...... Yes! I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! Predecessor! I'm really...... Woohoo......"

Constantly bending his little head, Hatsuharu's face became even redder than when he first entered the door.

accidentally exposed her hobbies in front of her future seniors, and she really feels ashamed of herself now.

Fortunately, Gufa Meiwei is still quite empathetic, knowing that if this continues, this little junior may be ashamed to run away, so he hurriedly smiled and revealed it, and began to guide her today's work.

"Your equipment application hasn't come down yet, but it should be soon, so let's sit in Flanda's position today, okay?"

"Ahh Good! ”

Hatsuharu, who had temporarily calmed down, also hid his embarrassment with a smile, and sat down in the position of his respected senior with some embarrassment.

While waiting for the computer to run, she turned her gaze and suddenly found a little surprise that the capable senior's usual neat office shelves had a few more books in color that did not match the white information book.

She looked quietly over to one of them.

The gray cover full of age reads.

'...... Edda? ’

……

……

In the Norse mythological system, many poems about 'knowledge' and 'wisdom' are still sung today.

For example, in an ancient book called "Edda", it was recorded in this way.

The location of 'it' is located in the third root of the 'World Tree', next to one of the roots.

The owner of 'it' will drink the water of 'it' spring every day with the horn of the gallar as a vessel to obtain supreme wisdom.

And the name of 'it' is called-

……

In the icy ancient domain, the heavy waves of silver were constantly rolling.

The forest is surrounded by a dark blue glow that roams the deepest part of the mysterious lake.

Yes, there is.

The sound of footsteps that could not be concealed by the wind and snow gradually sounded.

The slender little hand gently pressed the brim of his hat, and the brown-haired witch in the robe stood in this unique world, slowly revealing a strange smile.

“…… Finally found this place......"

"'Mimir's Spring.'"
