Crowds of people going to work and school walked neatly into the small cars that stopped.

The saying that the tram is full is now a thing of the past.

Trams are still the main form of public transport, but their form has changed dramatically over the past century.

Large vehicles capable of accommodating dozens of people, using only long-range high-speed vehicles in certain designated seats.

The mainstream of modern times is called "electric car", which is a small two- or four-person tram controlled by a central system.

Both power and energy are provided by the track, so the volume of the carriage is half that of a car in its class.

Passengers are sequentially boarded in the electric cars that are side by side on the platform, and the carriages read the destination of the ticket or commuter pass, and then proceed along the tracks.

The track is divided into three tracks according to the speed, and the traffic control system controls the distance between the carriages, gradually switching from the low-speed track to the high-speed track, and when you are about to reach the destination, you will switch from the high-speed track back to the low-speed track and enter the platform of the target station.

This is like changing lanes on a highway, but with the advancement of the control system, it is now possible to operate at a high density and transport the same volume as a large vehicle connecting dozens of cars.

In the case of medium- and long-haul routes in urban areas, the carriages are stored in the connecting car, and the fourth high-speed track is used, so passengers can step out of the carriage and take a break using the equipment inside the large connecting car. However, office workers or students hardly need it.

Encounters on trains, like in early romance novels, can't happen in the modern process of taking the train to school.

Although it can't be used as a place to meet up with friends, it won't be harassed by perverts.

There are no monitors or microphones inside the motorized compartment.

Passengers are not allowed to leave their seats while traveling, and there is an emergency wall between the seats. Because it is the consensus of society that personal privacy must be prioritized.

Nowadays, the tram is a kind of private space, just like the self-use car.

As a precautionary measure, you can only ride a single person in an electric car, or you can take a two-person car (an additional charge will be charged for less than three people in a four-person car), but Li Na and Sutsuki did not take the train separately, and they lined up side by side to take the school train.

"Brother, actually, ......"

Li Na, who turned on the screen of the terminal device to read the news, hurriedly looked up after hearing his sister's hesitant words.

It's rare for this sister to be so intimate.

Probably some bad news.

"Last night, those people called me......"

"Those people? Oh...... So, Dad, what did they do to make you angry? ”

"No, it's not...... It's good to choose the topic carefully when congratulating your daughter on entering school, and those people seem to understand this. So...... Brother's side, really ......? ”

"Oh, that's what it means...... They are the same as usual. Li Na nodded, in fact he didn't receive anything.

The elder brother's words made the younger sister's expression sink and lower her head, and in the next moment, under the long hair that covered her expression, there was an anger that seemed to be able to hear the sound of gritting her teeth.

"That's right...... I originally had a faint expectation, thinking that no matter what happened, I would congratulate him, but my brother didn't even receive an email...... Those people, that ......"

"Calm down."

Deep Snow trembled with unspeakable intensity, and Li Na soothed his adjoining hand a little harder.

The room temperature suddenly dropped, and the temperature in the car fell below the specified temperature, causing the heating to start at an inopportune time, and the sound of warm air filling the silent cabin.

“…… I'm so sorry I lost control for a while. ”

After confirming that the magic was no longer out of control, Li Na let go of Shenxue's hand.

When she let go, Li Na patted her hand and smiled disapprovingly, staring at Shenxue.

"I ignored his order to help out at the company and decided to go on to higher education. So of course he won't congratulate me. You know this dad's personality well, right? ”

"My father is so naïve and humiliating, so I am so angry. What's more, if I want to force my brother to leave my side, it stands to reason that I should have been informed of me, and then I should have my aunt's permission, but he didn't have the guts. In the end, how far do those people have to use their brother before they are willing to give up? Fifteen-year-olds go to high school, right? ”

"High school is not compulsory, so it is not a matter of course. Dad and Aunt Sayuri want to take advantage of me because they agree that I can be on my own, right? As long as you explain that I'm reliable, you won't be angry like this. ”

“…… Since my brother said so......"

Although a little reluctant, Shenxue nodded.

Their father was the head of development at the research institute of Four Leaves Fechnology, a magical engineering machine manufacturing company.

Shenxue didn't know that such a father actually asked Si Boda to take on what position he wanted, and only mistakenly thought that he was handing over the small things he had done after work to do some normal work.

In fact, his brother was only used as a repair device for research test subjects. If Deep Snow knew about this fact, it was really possible that it would be so angry that the transportation system would be paralyzed.

The classroom of Class E of the first year of school was filled with a chaotic atmosphere.

The other classrooms should be similar.

It seems that many students met yesterday, and small groups of small chatter have already appeared all over the classroom.

Anyway, there was no one to greet him, so Li Na looked at the number on the table, trying to find his terminal device.

But unexpectedly, someone called his name, which made him look up.

"Good morning~"

The voice came from Erica, who was as cheerful and energetic as ever.

"Good morning."

Mitsuki, who was beside her, looked at her with a low-key smile that took off her guard.

The two seemed to be fully acquainted, and Erica gently sat down at Mitsuki's table and waved. They were probably chatting before they saw Lee.

Li Na raised her hand in greeting and walked over to the two of them.

Sibo and Shibata are not so much coincidental as they are based on the order of fifty tones, and Li Na's seat is next to Mitsuki.

"We're neighbors again, please advise."

"I am, please advise."

Mitsuki responded to Rina's words with a smile. Immediately, Erica next to her showed a dissatisfied expression - probably deliberately.

"I always felt like I was being excluded."

The voice sounded like it was playing a trick on people.

But Li Na is not so cute that he will be shaken by this,

"It should be difficult to squeeze out Chiba-san."

Lina's crisp voice and tone made Erica squint and give him a roll of the eye.

“…… What does that mean? ”

"You're a big friend, and you're good at socializing."

Even after suffering Erica's white eyes, Li Na's face still did not change, and his expression was still relaxed. On the contrary, Erica showed a rather unwilling expression.

“…… Si Bo, you actually have a very bad personality, right? ”

Mitsuki couldn't help but laugh. Li Na looked at her with a look in his eyes, inserted his student ID card into the terminal, and began to examine the information inside.

From the regulations on courses, discipline and discipline, and the use of hardware facilities, as well as the activities related to admission, the instructions for self-government activities, and the subjects of the first semester, Li Na scrolled the pages at high speed, poured the content into his head, and completed the course selection process using only keyboard operation.

As he raised his head to catch his breath, Lina's gaze met that of the male student sitting in the front seat, staring at Lina's hands with wide eyes.
