The popcorn feast lasted all night before it ended with a satisfied moan from Yuri and Nuko, the big eater! Due to Nuko's super digestive power, the originally thick layer of popcorn blanket on the ground is also almost about a third less. The boy collects the remaining popcorn and puts it in a bag made of a bracelet, seals it, and gives it to Yuri, who has a huge space to carry around, to keep it for later consumption.
"Ah~~~ satisfied! Satisfy! Yuri patted her slightly bulging belly and said.
"You~ You've eaten too much! ………… But I'm not qualified to say that! Chido himself was lying on the ground moaning because he couldn't get up from eating.
"Yuri is really a big stomach! I didn't eat as much as Nuko, but I ate enough popcorn for 10 people! The boy said in amazement.
"Because it's so delicious, the popcorn is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the aroma is even more delicious, and the seasoning powder sprinkled with the floating wave sauce is even more delicious!" Yuri sat up with some difficulty.
"I never thought I'd be able to eat so much!"
"Chi-chan ate a lot! ………… Serves five? Yuri sat up and asked Chino, who was still lying on the ground.
“………… Almost! Qianhu replied with some difficulty.
"But it's still Nuko............ "Yuri said with a strange look at Nuko, whose belly was four or five times bigger.
“………… nuyi~~~ can't move............"
Nuko, who ate about twenty servings, was unable to move because his limbs were too short to support his torso, which had become huge, like a stranded boat.
"Looks like I'm going to have to sleep in this museum today!" The boy looked at the two girls who were eating.
"Hmmm! Now I don't want to move a single step, and I feel like the popcorn in my stomach will squirt out when I move............" Chido said with some pain.
"Sen-chan............ Good food! I can eat a little more............" said the gifted Yuri after a short break.
“…… Don't say such stupid words, You ............ "It's probably because I've eaten too much, and Qianhu even complains a little weak."
"I feel like the corn conjured up in the floating wave sauce this time can really be eaten for a year!" Yuri was almost recovering, and she began to try to stand up and speak.
“………… Stupid, the amount of leftover is far more than we can eat in a year! Qianhu said slowly.
"How many days does that Qian-chan say you can eat it?"
“………… I don't know...... But we should not have to worry about food in the short term! Qianhu thought for a while and said.
"Don't worry about the food? …… That's great! Yuri said with a smile.
"Yes!" Chiho also said with a smile.
Time flew by as the two girls talked............ I don't know when the sky has a touch of fish belly white, and a round of morning sun began to rise slowly............
"Ahh It's already morning! The boy said as he finished packing his things.
"Ah~~~~ I'm so sleepy!" Yuri yawned.
"That's right! I feel even sleepier when I'm full! Qianhu also said sleepily.
"It seems............ We can't leave this morning, let's get some sleep! The boy took out the sleeping bag from the space and handed it to the two girls.
"Uh-huh............! Let's talk about the rest when we wake up! Yuri took the sleeping bag and slipped inside.
"So be it!" Chiho also said after getting into the open sleeping bag.
"Sleep!" The boy said as he got into his sleeping bag after the two girls were ready for bed.
The rising sun brought the first rays of the morning, and in this warm rays of sunlight the young girl fell asleep belatedly......
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Perhaps they were too tired, and the three of them slept until one o'clock in the afternoon before they woke up to prepare for the departure.
"I didn't expect to sleep for so long, Chi-chan!" Yuri said as she folded her sleeping bag.
"Hmm!"
Qianhe, who had already folded his sleeping bags, put on his gloves and walked to the half-track car, ready to start the car.
"Hurry up, Yuri, we're going to get ready to go."
"Wait a minute, I'll be fine in a minute!" Yuri tied up the folded sleeping bag haphazardly and threw it into the carry-on space.
"Looks like we're going to have a long way to go before we can find a place like this complex!" The boy said, looking at the faint buildings in the distance.
"Yes, it looks like there's still a day to go!" Qianhu said.
"Then speed it up!" Yuri jumped into the car and said.
“…… If you keep grinding like this, you can't speed it up! Qianhu said complainingly.
“………… I'm sorry! ”
"Forget it! …… It's the same with the departure now! After saying that, Qianhu started the car and set off.
The scenery on the road is nothing to praise, after all, it is flat and there are not many ups and downs along the way. Even if the thousand households who were driving had not just woken up, they would have been hypnotized by the repeated scenery in front of them.
After all, it was a little late, and the boys and girls had to camp again after driving for about four or five hours. In order to be able to arrive at the complex tomorrow morning, the three of them prepared to rest early after dinner.
"Hmmm! I don't feel much pain in my feet! Qianhe, who got up early in the morning, moved his limbs and said.
"That's great!" Yuri said happily.
"Thanks to the treatment of the floating waves!" Chiho said to the boy.
"Where, it's because you're in good health! Besides, you're just a soft tissue sprain, and you'll get better quickly with a little medicine! The boy said modestly after removing the bandages on Chihu's feet.
"Anyway, it's a good thing that Chi-chan can get back to health!"
"Yuri is right! The recovery of thousands of households is the happiest thing today! The boy said.
"Should this be something to celebrate?" Yuri said.
"Hmmm! It's something to celebrate! The boy nodded.
"Shall we celebrate, then?" Yuri then asked.
"Hmm............ So be it! When we get to the complex, I'll make you a delicious meal to celebrate! The boy thought for a moment and said.
"Great!" Yuri happily stood up from the halftrack and cheered.
"Wow~~" The sound of a cloth tearing came from Yuli's clothes.
"Ahh My clothes are torn............" she said, looking at the rip in her clothes.
"Doesn't it matter?" Qianhu asked.
"It doesn't seem to matter...... It's just a small cut. But...... The human body is so powerful that it can heal itself...... The clothes won't get better on their own, they'll just get more and more torn............" Yuri said to herself.
"It's the same with this city, it's not going to get better on its own, it's going to get worse and worse, isn't it?" Senhe said, looking at the broken ground that appeared around him from time to time.
"After all, there's no one to maintain it! How useful can even a few robots be left? It's such a big city............"
"That's why we're going to climb up while the city is still alive, aren't we?" Yuri said.
"But what's the point of getting to the top?" Qianhu asked.
"You might meet someone alive or something interesting, wouldn't you?" Yuri said.
"It's possible that there's nothing, isn't it?" Qianhu retorted.
"But the only thing we can do is climb up! If you stick to one place, you can only die with this city, and there is no point in dying like this............" Yuri said loudly.
“………… That's what you're talking about! If you don't know anything, you'll disappear............ That's what I hate the most............"
"I finally got it! Sen-chan. Yuri said happily.
"Yes! For us now, getting to the top is the most important thing! As for what happens after the summit, let's talk about it then! After saying that, Qianhu started the car and drove towards the complex.
"Then again...... What if I don't have clothes? Yuri asked, looking at her clothes that were starting to get a little torn.
"Well! It must be cold............" Sendo said, feeling the chilly breeze in the early morning.
"But wouldn't it be nice to keep your hair warm if you kept it long?" Yuri said, gesturing.
"You can understand your feelings, but that kind of feeling and action can get in the way." Qianhu imagined it for a moment and said.
"But if it goes on like this, sooner or later, the clothes will become unusable! What will we use as clothing when the time comes? Yuri asked worriedly.
"Don't worry about this Yuri! Just find the cloth in the next complex and you're done! The boy reassured.
"Really?" Yuri asked in surprise.
"Really, this bracelet can transform cloth into clothes, a function that saves a lot of energy compared to the energy spent on making machinery!" The teenager explained.
"Looks like the food is the fabric!" Qianhu said.
"Yes! ………… Thinking about it this way, nuko is much more convenient than us! Yuri said, patting Nuko's head.
“nu?”
"Yes! You don't have to worry about food, and you don't have to worry about freezing naked......" Senhu said with a sigh.
"Does Nuko feel cold?" Yuri suddenly thought.
"I guess it's going to feel cold! It's just a lot better than us humans! Qianhu guessed.
"nuyi~~ cold, don't like ............"
"Chi-chan is right! Nuko herself admits that she doesn't like the cold! Yuri said, holding Nuko in her arms.
“…… Would you like to make a dress for Nuko......" Chito suggested.
“………… That's a good idea! I'll try it when I find the fabric! The boy said with a smile.
"Great! Nuko, you need to have clothes, too! Yuri said happily as she hugged Nuko.
“nu? ………… Clothes? Nuko tilted her little head in confusion as she listened to Yuri's words.
