"Na! What is this? Yuri asked, pointing to a strangely shaped machine.

"I don't know! Looks like it's broken. Probably something inexplicable! Qianhe looked at the machine that Qianhe pointed to and said.

“…… Is it. But when it comes to it, there are only some inexplicable things around us............ But Chi-chan likes to learn about these inexplicable things, right, and reads books about them......" Yuri said, touching Nuko's head.

"I wouldn't approach something as inexplicable and dangerous as you did!" As he spoke, Chiho drove the car into a foggy area.

"The fog is so thick......," the boy said, looking at the thick fog around him.

"Looks like you're going to have to drive carefully!" Yuri said.

"Yes! ………… Oh! That's ............," Sendo said in surprise as he looked at something ahead of him after driving out of the fog area for a short time.

"Look! There's something inexplicable again! Yuri said, looking at what was in front of her.

In front of the three of them was a machine composed of a large number of gears and metal shafts, with some metal plates mounted on the branches of the machine like flowers, and the whole machine appeared to have neither power nor engines on the surface, but it was constantly moving according to the law.

"It's really a great design............ "The boy said admiringly.

“…… How does this work...... Yes! Is it wind-powered? Chito said as he looked at the gust of wind blowing.

"You guessed it right! This machine can continue to operate with only the occasional blowing wind, which is a very powerful design! And looking at the appearance of this machine, I am afraid that it has been running for I don't know how many years............ Tut-tut! The boy couldn't stop praising him.

"It's so funny!" Yuri excitedly grabbed a pendulum and let the machine move her up and down.

"Don't break it, it's something that has been saved with great difficulty!" Chinohe stood below and called. As she said this, she held up her camera and shot at the machine.

"It's so funny!" She said after the shooting.

"You just said it was funny, didn't you?" Yuri, who had already come off the machine, laughed.

"Hmm............"

Just as Chiho was about to refute, the radio that had been quietly hanging around Yuri's neck played a mysterious ballad again.

"It's this inexplicable song again!" Chiho said, looking at the radio on Yuri's chest.

“…… I love this song......" said Nuko.

"Nuko has something she likes!" Yuri wondered.

"The voice is coming from that side............" Nuko said, staring in one direction.

"Can you hear me?" Qianhu asked eagerly.

"You can hear me! Over there............" she replied as she stretched out her forelegs and pointed in one direction.

The three of them looked in the direction Nuko was pointing, and a breeze brought a chill on their faces............

"Let's go check it out!" Yuri said.

"Even if there is no one, I want to know what is there!" The boy nodded.

"Yes! Let's go see what we don't know much about! Qianhu also echoed and said.

'Good!' Interest has overcome fear! Yuri happily grabbed the pendulum of the machine again.

"It's not just a matter of winning or losing!" Qianhu walked to the half-track car and said.

"Hmm~~~," Yuri cheered as she swayed with the swing of the pendulum.

"nuyi~~" and nuko was lying on Yuri's helmet as before, playing together.

"Maybe only someone like You can create culture!" Chiho sighed as he looked at Yuri and Nuko, who were playing.

"Well! According to me, people like Yuri should create culture, and people like Senhu are responsible for passing on culture, so both of you are indispensable to culture. The boy said with a smile.

"Fubo is always so gentle! Just like grandpa............" Chiho sighed.

"Chi-chan! Ready to go? Yuri, who had already jumped off the pendulum, came to the car and asked.

“………… Get in the car! We're leaving......" Chido said as she watched Yuri, who was sweating profusely as she played.

After Yuri and Nuko got into the car, Chiho drove his car in the direction Nuko had guided. After leaving the machine, the life of the three of them began to become monotonous and boring again. And rightfully so, after all, the journeys of young girls are not always so colorful. Yuri had to play with Nuko to pass the time, while the teenager took out his backpack and started tidying up.

"Na! Fubo-chan, what is this? Yuri said as she looked at the small object that the boy had put aside.

"This one............ It's a flashlight, can you pinch the handle over here and take a look? The boy handed the flashlight to Yuri and pointed to the handle.

“………… Oh! It's lit up! After Yuri pinched the handle a few times, the small bulb on the front of the flashlight began to glow.

“…… It's lit up,......" Nuko repeated as she leaned on Yuri's helmet.

"Na! Fubo-chan, what's going on with this? Why does it glow when I pinch it a few times? Yuri asked curiously.

"I'm curious about that, too." At this time, Chino, who was attracted by Yuri's cheers and turned his head, said.

"Actually, I installed a transmission device on the handle of this flashlight, which can drive a small generator at the front end when pinched to generate electricity to light the bulb." The boy explained cursoryly.

“………… I see......" Yuri said blankly.

"You~~ Do you really understand?" Qianhu said speechlessly.

"Not at all!" Yuri said decisively.

“…… I knew ............," Chito said, with a look on his face.

"What does it matter if you don't understand? I just need to know that if I pinch this handle, this thing will glow, right? Yuri said indifferently.

“………… Sure enough, it's Yuri who would say it! Qianhu said in a cold sweat.

"Hey............ Is that so? ”

“…… I'm not complimenting you! Qianhu was a little speechless.

"Fubo-chan, what else do you have in your bag?" Yuri asked even more curiously, looking at the backpack in the boy's arms.

"Well! There's nothing special about it......" the boy said as he pulled various items from his backpack.

"What's in this box?" Yuri asked, pointing to the metal box that the boy had just taken out.

"This is the box where medical supplies are stored, and there is gauze, disinfectant, cotton balls, and trauma spray found from the hidden room." The boy opened the box and said.

"Oh.................." Yuri nodded knowingly.

"It's the pot...... It's cutlery...... This is table salt...... This is granulated sugar...... There was also a change of clothes and a ............" boy finally took out a strange fruit from his backpack.

"Ahh Isn't this the fruit you get from the temple? It feels the same as when I first got it! Yuri said, looking at the fruit in the boy's hand.

"Hmmm! The epidermis still looks watery, and it doesn't look shriveled at all............ What a strange fruit! The boy also looked at the fruit.

"Na! What kind of fruit is this? Floating wave sauce. Yuri asked again.

"Well! In terms of appearance, it is somewhat similar to cantaloupe, but the surface of cantaloupe does not have such a spiral pattern like a black hole! The boy said as he looked at the fruit carefully.

“…… I'd love to eat this............ "Nuko said. She had been staring at the fruit as soon as the boy took it out, and now when she got closer, she was drooling and lying on it.

"Na! Fukiba-chan! Let's eat and eat now............" Yuri suggested after listening to Nuko's words.

"You ...... Didn't you say that this fruit doesn't taste good? Qianhu reminded.

"But Nuko thinks it's delicious, doesn't it?" Yuri said as she lifted Nuko, who was lying on top of the fruit.

“………… Nuko can swallow even bullets! Do you really think you can eat anything like she does? Qianhu said speechlessly.

"Hmm!" Yuri was speechless.

"Well! Let's cut a portion of it and let Nuko eat it! As he spoke, the boy took out a knife and cut a portion of the fruit and handed it to Nuko.

"nuyi~~" nuko excitedly swallowed the flesh handed to his mouth.

"How? Is it tasty? Yuri asked, looking at Nuko.

“………… It's delicious......" Nuko replied immediately.

"Excellent! Let's eat too! Yuri said immediately after listening to Nuko's thoughts.

"Hey, hey!" A large drop of cold sweat ran down Chiho's forehead.

At Yuri's suggestion, the boy divides the fruit into four portions, and Nuko's portion is carefully cut into small pieces for her to swallow.

"So ............"

Yuri looked at the boy and Chino, who were also holding up the fruit.

"Do you really want to eat it?" Qianhu looked at the fruit in his hand and said with some embarrassment.

"Chi-chan! If you can eat it, you can eat it! Look, isn't nuko a joy to eat! Yuri said, pointing to Nuko, who was rapidly swallowing the fruit.

“………… All right! I eat! Qianhu said with an open expression.

"So...... I'm really going to eat it this time! Yuri said to the two of them.

"Hmm!" The boy nodded.

The three of them looked at the fruit in their hands again and took a bite at the same time............

"Wow~~~~ cough cough cough!"

"Vomit ~~~~~~"

"Hmmm! Super unpalatable! Yuri looked at the expressions of the two people opposite, and calmly said her opinion on the fruit.

"It's the first time I've eaten something so unpalatable! It's so unpalatable to the bone! The boy said with a dishful face.

"I actually ate it and it was gone............ What a terrible feeling! Qianhu also said with a disgraced face.

In the end, except for Yuri, who finished eating the fruit in her hand without changing her face, the other two fed the rest of the fruit to Nuko............
