"Acquaintances?"
Confused, Dome turned her gaze in the direction Harukami was pointing.
The concept of acquaintances, I don't feel like it should have been said by Harumami. Because there are actually unexpectedly few people who can be called "acquaintances" by the dome. Even if you more or less guess that Harugami may have seen a few quietly, it should not be so coincidental to meet today.
What's more, her interpersonal relationships are almost all focused on Tokiwadai. For Tokiwadai, which has strict school rules, there should be very few students who violate school rules today......
"Ahh
She saw a figure dressed in a very rustic loose tracksuit (seemingly deliberate) burrowing into the crowd with a tiptoeing motion (absolutely unintentional).
Although it was a bit rude, the expression on Dome Nai's face was a little stiff when he saw this figure.
What is this going to do? No wonder Harukami will spot her at a glance, and in a festival-like fireworks display, such a dress and demeanor are even more conspicuous, right? No, no, no, none of that is critical. The point is –
There really is! Acquaintance.
"Wanuchi-san?"
The girl who was trying to drill into the crowd was very noticeably stiffened, and if it was in a manga, it would probably be accompanied by onomatopoeia such as "spirit".
This is a figure that surprises Dome Nato. To be honest, there aren't many students who fully comply with the school rules at Tokiwadai, or most of them violate the school rules to a greater or lesser extent. However, the act of sneaking out of the dormitory gate like this doesn't seem to be like what a timid girl like Wanuchi would do.
If you were to change to the kind of students who can be seen everywhere in Tokiwata, they will probably try to fool around with "hahaha". A few of the more astute ones may instead become very comfortable (after all, Dome is also considered a violation of school rules), but Wanuchi Kinpo is clearly not in either of these ranks in terms of personality alone. So she turned around tremblingly, bowing her head as if she had done something wrong.
"It's okay, I also sneaked out."
Dome exhaled softly, smiling slightly, and her face gently blended with the night. She looked up at the sky.
"That...... Kaihara-senpai? ”
With a slight sigh of relief, I heard Dome continue to ask.
"Are your classmates there after marriage?"
Although it was in a tone that was close to inquiry, no matter how you listened to it, it seemed like you were simply confirming the facts.
This kind of thing can be guessed even by just looking at it. Who else would come up with such a self-righteous outfit other than Photon after marriage?
"No, after marriage, the senior sister has been unable to go out recently because of the examination."
"Well, if that's the case, it seems to be true."
Tapping his lips, Dome agreed with the bay's explanation. But in this way, does that mean that this somewhat funny outfit is Wanuchi's own idea? That's a ......
Although this kind of dress is still quite easy to move, if it is too abnormal and attracts too much attention, it is the opposite effect, right?
Even though Dome has been trying to turn the conversation into a casual and casual daily conversation, Wanuchi is still a little reserved. Occasionally, he quietly glanced behind Dome Nai.
“?”
Tilting her head, she doesn't feel like there's anything behind her that deserves to be cared for (Harugami standing beside her). However, she does not think that there is no reason for this behavior in the bay.
"Is there anything behind me?"
Douno's expression became a little serious, and Wannai waved his palm to this side in a panic, indicating that this was not the case.
"That's not the case, I'm thinking, isn't Senior Kaihara here?"
Dome Nai's delicate eyebrows moved slightly.
Although they are all honorifics, in the language habits of the bay, it is common to call oneself the Tokiwadai "様" (note: it is actually the highest-level ending word honorific, which is generally translated as "adult", and the dome is the one who calls his parents and the one who calls Mitsuki Kaihara outside. In the original Wannai, Tokiwadai's senpai (such as Bee Eater) is called "XX Adult", which is the highest-ranking character used as an honorific at the end of the original work), and only when addressing one's older brother will the word "senpai" (note: "senior") be used in order to distinguish between them.
Why is Mitsuki Umihara mentioned here?
In Bubble Float and Bay, these two juniors who often haunt together know their elder brother, which Qiong Nai has known before. However, why did Wanuchi suddenly mention his brother?
Beside her, Harukami's eyes narrowed imperceptibly, and his expression became a little dangerous.
"It's just that I usually feel like the senior sister and the senior go out together a lot......"
"Yes. But today I made my own decision, and my brother is not here. ”
Unexpectedly, when he heard the news, Wanuchi let out a long sigh of relief with his hands on his chest, and even showed a reassuring smile.
"It's uncomfortable."
Harugami, who was watching Dome talking from the side, suddenly interjected.
"Huh?"
"Your smile looks weird,"
Hara's tone was not cold, but there was a vague sense of weirdness. It's like a simple word, mixed with something inexplicable.
"Huh? Is that so? ”
Wanuchi hurriedly stroked his face with both hands to confirm that his expression was indeed somewhat relaxed as the unknown girl said.
_
The flow of people brought a slight cushion to the interval between words. The singer's beautiful singing voice flows gently like a river, and it seems to be pulled up towards the sky.
Spread out the palms, the fingers were a little too straight due to the bad habits that I accidentally developed when I was a beginner, but this was not too much of a problem.
After mastering the rhythm of breathing, step out with your left foot sharply, and at the same time, use your right foot to exert force, twisting half of your body to swing your right palm straight to the left.
This seems to be a one-palm sideways swing in a certain technique, and it might be very imposing if you let a man do it. However, it was a little girl who showed this trick, and she couldn't help but look a little light.
However, when this technique was completed, the nearby pedestrians heard some kind of agitation of the wind, as if the hands of this seemingly weak girl were full of wind.
Inhale and close your legs, protect your left hand in front of your chest, but your right arm rolls in with the twisting of your right shoulder, and twists your waist to the left, and drives your right arm to lift up and walk in a circle with your whole body to form an arm split. At the same time, with the drive of the right arm, the left arm will be unfolded, followed by the right arm to the left shoulder palm, both hands rotate and split and hang up, and the right palm hits the ground.
It still seemed to be a light movement, but there was a muffled sound when the right palm hit the ground. Almost everyone in the vicinity felt the earth tremble at that moment.
The vibration that can only occur when a high-load vehicle passes by can actually be manifested under the palm blow of such a young girl.
The girl who completed the blow received the move in a very low position with her left leg bent up and her right leg bent forward.
Bang Bang Bang!
"That's amazing!"
Dome applauded.
Wanuchi blushed a little embarrassed and straightened up and scratched his cheek. Her posture can be said to be standard, and she can be regarded as quite proficient. But if you tell the truth, that's about it. As far as boxing is concerned, this is really not enough to be praised.
What really makes the dome praise is another aspect.
Wanuchi stretched out her fingers, and her small palm was covered with fluid lines that were absolutely difficult to spot without looking closely. These lines are not only limited to the palms of her hands, but also all over her body.
The power of super-common sense contained in that move and formula, and the cushion needed to withstand this power, all come from this.
The ability in the bay is to manipulate liquids, and due to the small number, it is definitely not a powerful ability in most cases. However, all fluids can be used as transmission media.
It is not the strength of the body that uses the technique to perform the technique, but the ability to perform this technique. Similar to the hydropower-powered exoskeleton drive armor, it brings great power in the form of fluid transmission.
"Considering the level of ability application, in order to be more familiar and easy to calculate, he did not recommend that I learn those amorphous techniques such as kickboxing. It just so happened that I had learned a little bit about this, so I followed this line of thought with some tricks. ”
If it is a routine action that the body is used to, you can apply the empirical formula to a greater extent to simplify the calculation, after all, it is based on your own body to use the ability.
The fact that Wanuchi has learned martial arts is not news in Tokiwadai. Mitsuki Umihara once served as her temporary coach when her coach was injured, and Qiongno knew that. (Anyway, when did he get acquainted with Bubble Float, which made Dome a little curious)
Well, that is......
"Homework, huh?"
Dome nodded in understanding.
Tokiwadai itself doesn't have much of an idea of homework, but there are too many elective topics to count, and the grade is a little higher. However, this part of his brother's arrangement for the bay is obviously a kind of homework. Homework in sports is also homework.
"But isn't it done? Then there's no need to hide from the elder brother, right? ”
"No, it's not that." After organizing what he wanted to say, he continued, "Senior Kaihara didn't ask me to do anything in the application of ability, it was my own idea. The task assigned by Mr. Kaihara was to add a routine that was different from the techniques I had learned before. But I've been doing competency exercises lately, and I haven't finished that part yet......"
“…… Oh. ”
Understood.
To put it simply, it means that the originally selected project was not completed in time because it was temporarily run to do other projects. Even in Tokiwadai, there are often similar situations, because the selection of topics is quite flexible.
People who are too capable often have the problem of choosing too many and not being able to catch up with the time, which can also be regarded as a kind of "extravagant trouble" in terms of talent.
"Why don't you explain it to your brother?"
Dome felt a little strange.
"Senior Kaihara's words...... It doesn't look harsh, but it doesn't feel like it's easy to talk, and it's a little scary......"
"That's definitely your delusion, Wanuchi-san."
Hearing her say this, Dome explained along the way. However, although her tone did not change, she showed a little surprise.
This was a bit of a surprise. Except for his mother, it seems that no one has ever said that Mitsuki Haihara is not easy to talk to. I didn't expect to see the second one today, and it was actually a person she had never thought of, and it should definitely not be a person who was familiar with her brother.
"Do you need me to explain it to your brother?"
"If you can, please help me explain."
Wannai very politely thanked the dome as a junior.
"Yes, with a gesture."
Dome smiled and nodded.
It was still her usual warm smile, but at this time, something overshadowed it.
It was Harugami's gaze, who was standing behind her at this time, obviously not showing any special expression, but bringing a certain uncertain cold feeling.
"I'm sorry to trouble Senior Sister, so I'll leave here first."
Obviously he didn't mean to speak, but his lips and vocal cords moved completely uncontrollably. This is the second time since the evaluation of Mitsuki Haihara, which is completely out of his control.
_
Nothing has changed. Neither the small performances that are taking place nor the audience enjoying the performances have changed in the slightest. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like something could happen.
After separating from Dome and Harugami (in fact, there was not much distance), Wanuchi moved to a relatively less crowded place behind the stage, and simply tidied up his dress and sat directly on the bank of the river.
If you look closely, you can see that her lips are constantly moving, as if she is talking to herself for no apparent reason.
But in fact, she has a real person to talk to. It's just that the object isn't here.
"Lord Beeeater, did we say we wouldn't control my body?"
For her, who is a little weak in character, this seemingly impolite rhetorical question is already her harshest accusation.
In my mind, the answer came directly.
("It's a bit of a surprise, so it's better to end it sooner.") ”)
"If it's troublesome, don't let people find out if I'm not good? I dressed up like this to make it easier to move, isn't it bad to attract attention? ”
actually made a not-so-good evaluation of others inexplicably, and it came out of her mouth. No matter how weak her personality is, she is more or less angry.
("Makes sense, but I've been doing it, with my control.") ”)
"Ah, is that the reason why Kaihara-san is not affected?"
("You have a lot of understanding.") But what I'm saying is that it's not our Royal Highness the Princess of Tokiwadai who discovered you. ”)
"Huh? Isn't it? ”
("Yes, it's not.") It's true that Kaihara-san wasn't under my influence, but her attention wasn't on your side at the time, so she didn't even see you at all. The real discovery was the girl next to her. ”)
"That girl ......"
Wanuchi remembered.
In the conversation just now, it was just the girl who said a few words. To be honest, because she was with Dome Nai, the bay also looked at her. If you keep your eyes on her, you will find that she is actually quite a beautiful girl. However, as long as she is not paying attention, she will become inconspicuous inexplicably.
By the way, when Wanuchi noticed her, she didn't seem happy. Especially the look in her eyes, which didn't seem to be looking at anything at all, actually gave her a cold feeling.
Odd? It's such an impressive thing, why did you completely forget about it before being mentioned by the beeeaters?
How does it manage to ignore the cognitive illusions created by the strongest psychic abilities?
("Don't go near that girl.") ”)
The bee-eater, who has always been not very serious, unexpectedly sent a very serious message this time.
("If I'm not mistaken, she's probably deciphered part of the communication.") Now don't make any extrasistence, remember what I want you to do? ”)
"Are we under suspicion? So that's ......"
Now, Wannai somewhat understands what that strange gaze is all about. I see, this way of spiritual connection is suspected......
("Huh?") What are you talking about? Why do you think I'm asking you to speak ill of people? ”)
Suddenly, an octave higher sounded in my head.
("I was still complimenting your comprehension just now, why did your comprehension suddenly go offline?") Haven't you even noticed that she's quite hostile to you personally? ”)
====================================================
PS: The punching technique used in the bay is based on her posture in the comics, so you can guess what it is. However, I guess you should be able to guess when you see the second action.
