The melting snow water continues to heat up, and gradually some hot water vapor continues to transpire upward............

"Oh! It's hot~~ It's hot! But it seems that the water level has become shallower! Yuri took off her gloves and tested the temperature of the water.

"Probably because there is a lot of air between the snow blocks! Add some snow and you're probably good to go! Chiho said as he lit the fire under the car.

"Oh! So that's ............"

Yuri shoveled in some more snow blocks, allowing the water level, which had been shallow due to the complete melting of the snow blocks, to rise............

"Na! This is a bath towel for you............ "The boy said as he used his bracelet to transform three long and wide towels.

"............ bath towel?" Yuri took the object handed by the boy and looked questioning.

"That's right! Bath towel...... That way, at least it won't be so embarrassing to take a bath together............" Fubo said as he scratched his cheeks a little embarrassedly.

“………… Thank you, Floating Wave! Qianhu thought about his previous bold request, and finally recovered from the grief of the scrapping of his car, and took the huge towel handed by the young man with a red face.

After waiting patiently for a while, the water temperature in the body finally reached a suitable temperature.

The girls used the boy's makeshift tent as a dressing room and took off their clothes............ Then I wrapped the bath towel in the way that the floating wave explained............

"You have to sink this board to get in! Otherwise, your feet will burn............ "Sendo said after placing a metal plate diagonally into the bottom of the bath.

With a slight splash of water sinking to the bottom of the bath, the bath that was converted from a scrapped half-track is finally finished!

"Oh! That's amazing! Yuri excitedly quickly entered the bath.

As her body slowly plunged into the water, the girl, who had been a little cold before, let out a satisfied moan............

The body of the halftrack with so many parts removed is so spacious that the space that would have been able to accommodate two people doesn't feel cramped when you enter the three!

The girls covered their torsos below the armpit level with towels, but the bath towels wet by the pool water still exposed their youthful figures.

The slender and lovely Chiho has a shy figure peculiar to an oriental girl, while Yuri, who has some European blood, has a plump body that Chiho of the same age does not have............ The sight in front of him made the boy not know where to turn his eyes!

Maybe the water in the pond is too hot, or maybe the two girls are a little shy, whether it's the grinning Yuri or the calm Qianhu, their little faces are starting to turn red, and they look very cute!

A wonderful atmosphere began to fill the air............

"Thousand ...... Chi-chan is really a genius! You can actually transform your car into a bath............" Yuri said to lighten the mood.

However, I don't know if it touched something in Chito's heart again, and her expression became a little sad again!

"Chi-chan?" Yuri looked at Chino's somewhat sad expression and screamed tentatively.

".................." Qianhu, who has been suppressing his feelings since just now, finally couldn't help but explode!

First, tears flowed from his eyes...... Then a loud cry came out......

"Woo.................. Ahh Chiho cried very sadly, and the tears fell into the warm pool like beads of broken threads.

Yuri, who empathized, didn't say any comforting words at the moment, but simply took her companion into her arms............

Maybe he was tired of crying, or maybe he dried up the tears he could shed, and Chihu finally stopped crying after whimpering a few times!

Looking at Chino, who had stopped crying, the boy took out a handkerchief from his space and handed it over.

"Qianhu, wipe it!" He said to the girl.

"Hmm! Thank you. Chiho took the handkerchief and wiped the tears from his face.

Looking at Chino, who still had a sad look on her face, Yuri suddenly thought of something and shouted......

"Ahh ………… I remember that it looked like there was still a bottle left...... I'll take it out and drink it together! She said as she pulled a bottle of beer from her carry-on space.

"There's just one bottle left!" She pried open the cap of the bottle with a knife and handed it to Chino.

Qianhu took the wine bottle, took a sip, handed it back and said, "Nayou~~ Sing the one just now!" ………… The song just now! ”

"Song? Yes, yes! With that, Yuri took a sip of beer and returned the bottle to Chino, and began to hum the tune just now!

"Hmph~hum~hum~hum~" The familiar singing began to echo around the bath again.

After a few more sips of beer, Chido passed Yuri and the boy to the front of the car, and she reached out and gently stroked the familiar handles and instruments............

"So far............ Thank you so much! Chido put his chin on the round dashboard and said with a little sadness and gratitude.

The boy held Nuko, who had become soft due to his inability to use his strength due to being soaked in the water, and silently watched everything in front of him, and he did not say any words of comfort, and silence was better than sound at this time............

There is a day of gain, there is a day of loss, there is a day of encounter, there is a day of separation...... This is how things are! He gave up the few beers he had left to the two maidens and took out the bottle of rum from his space that he had found a long time ago............

The boy recalled his past, raised the bottle and took a sip, as the hot and sweet wine ran down his throat into the stomach pouch, the young man silently felt his nostalgia for the old man............

If you don't get drunk, everyone gets drunk......

The three of them hummed to Yuli's tune, and the loud singing continued to ripple on the empty platform............

The reception and farewell party lasted for a long time, until the beer and rum were drunk by the boys and girls............

The reinvigorated trio put on their clothes and said their final goodbyes to the hard-working half-track.

"Na! What happens after that? Yuri asked, bowing to the half-track.

"What to do............ With the feet, of course............ Floating waves, what is this? As soon as Chido was about to say that he could only move forward on his feet, he was startled by the disc-shaped object that the boy had taken out.

"It feels like a plate! But it looks like you can sit inside............" Yuri said, looking at the strange machine.

"Actually, I already knew from Ishii that the car was almost at the end of its useful life, so in order to be able to move forward after the car broke down, I actually kept an eye on the equipment and machinery on the road............"

"Could it be that the reason why Fukiba-chan wants to take away the rocket jet port is also to make this?" Yuri said suddenly.

"That's right! I had been thinking about what to replace the end-of-life halftrack for a long time ago...... After all, it is necessary to take into account both the material and the operation............ So I found this hovercar in the drawings stored by the bracelet as a replacement! The boy patted the disc-shaped vehicle and said.

"Hovering ............" Qianhu carefully walked to the side of the hovercar and touched the smooth surface of the car.

"The way it works is actually no different from a half-track, after all, this car was originally used as an old-fashioned scooter! So security is also well taken into account............ The semi-circular glass shield can block the invasion of wind and snow...... Equipped with an air filter to ensure air circulation...... The maximum speed is 100KM per hour, and it is driven by a hybrid of electric energy and solid fuel...... What do you think? The boy said to Chihu.

"Hmmm! Very nice look! Qianhu looked at the familiar steering handles and dashboard of the cab inside the hovertruck, and said with some excitement.

“………… Then it's up to you! This is the key ............," the boy handed Chinoha a key with a remote control function.

“………… Can you really take it? Qianhu asked excitedly.

“…… Who else here but you are qualified to drive it? Do you want me or Yuri to drive? The boy laughed.

After listening to what Fubo said, Chito finally accepted the key to the hovercar............

"Wait! Sen-chan ............ Tie this on! Yuri said as she handed over a fish-shaped charm twisted from wire.

“……………… Well! Chito nodded vigorously, took the ornament that had been tied to the half-track car key, and reattached it to the hovering car key.

"Now that everything is ready............ Then let's go! Route according to the map display............ Just follow the path on the outer wall and you will soon reach the top! The boy said to Chihu.

"Hmmm! Then I'm not welcome to use it! ”

"Please enjoy it!" The boy nodded.

Under the guidance of the young man, Qianhe successfully opened the protective glass cover to reveal the circular interior space of the hovering car. The entire circular space is divided into two parts, the front is the passenger seat, and the front is the driver's seat!

In order for Qianhu to get started quickly, the boy carefully modified the operation of the suspension car into the half-track style that the girl is familiar with, so that although it looks like there will be a sense of abruptness, but it is the most suitable for Qianhu!

Insert the key...... Unscrew the lock............ Start the engine in one go!

Under the operation of Qianhe, this brand-new hovercar inherited the will of the half-track car, carrying the three of them to continue to march towards the top!
