Chapter 31: Double Dating
"It's already afternoon, is it too late?" Natsumi asked as she combed in front of the mirror.
"Of course no problem!" Moriki had already changed his clothes at this time, and was extremely excited to wait for his sister to come out... Hawkers, the thing is very simple, Natsumi wants to accompany Moriki to the Beicheng business district.
There are many commercial districts, and the North City business district is also large, but... For home-like lovers like Senmu, the Beicheng business district has a different meaning.
In the Beicheng business district, there is the largest animation street and video game street in the whole city and even in the country. To be more specific, it's like a place similar to Akihabara, and although the name is not peculiar, it can be called a holy place to some extent for Moriki!
When Natsumi offered to take Moriki to the Beicheng business district, Moriki hesitated for a while... Because there are still a large number of shopping places in the Beicheng business district, for non-home enthusiasts, it is not necessarily the largest animation street and video game street.
It's just that when Natsumi clearly told Mori Mu that it was the Anime Street in the Beicheng business district, Mori Mu grew up in disbelief... Of course, this also means that my sister already knows that she loves these things.
The good news is that my sister didn't blame herself, but chose this way... Although there are some strange things to do, the most important thing now is to have a good time to walk around!
"Ready." Xia Mei walked down from the upper floor, and before going out, she still had to dress up.
Moriki had been waiting for a long time, although he couldn't go for too long because he didn't go after school in the afternoon, but with his sister following, Moriki felt much more excited than when he went shopping alone before.
Natsumi looked at Moriki with a smile, her joy could naturally be felt, and she felt very intense in her heart and came up with a good idea... That's right, Xia Mei's proposal to go to the animation street in the Beicheng business district together comes from Lie!
Yesterday, Natsumi sent a message to Yeol, '... I accidentally found that my sister seems to be addicted to sister games, what should I do as an older sister? After thinking about it, Lie gave Natsumi's suggestion.
It's actually very easy to use this kind of entrustment for both parties, especially if both parties are afraid that the other party will know... Ahem, but considering some of the influences, Lie automatically rejected the suggestion that was automatically generated in his mind to make trouble, and told Natsumi some pertinent opinions.
“…”
At least, Lie thinks his advice is pertinent! Since Moriki likes it so much, Natsumi directly shows her attitude by taking her there, which is quite good.
In addition, Lie accepted the commission of both parties, but could not take the initiative to tell the other party about the commission. After all, it is very important to keep the client's information and the contents of the commission confidential.
In this case, Lie decided to complete the commission of both parties at the same time, and going to the Beicheng business district together is only the first step! The next thing to do, just after they have been there, Lie is in the process of working with Zero at this time.
The topic seems to be off, and we put our perspective on Natsumi and Moriki, who have just gone out... Well, after all, it's the same city, so even though I went in the afternoon, I only had a half-hour train ride away, so I had plenty of time.
…
"Ahaha~, Beicheng Anime Street, I'm here!"
A trace of cold sweat appeared on Natsumi's forehead, and her sister stood in front of the street and shouted with her waist crossed, always feeling very disobedient. However, this may be the other side of my sister?
Natsumi suddenly found that she didn't know her sister as deeply as she imagined, and immediately had a crisis, so this trip was even more necessary.
"Let's get started." Natsumi smiled and took a step forward, and after Senmu shouted excitedly, he was also very happy to hold his sister's arm and officially enter the North City Anime Street.
…
"Let's get started!" Lie came out of the corner, wearing a black trench coat and a large black-rimmed sunglasses, looking suspicious.
"The other party didn't notice us, and the tracking operation was carried out very well." Zero appears behind Lie... Compared with Lie, Zero is much more normal, at least just a casual dress, not noticeable.
And Lie, who was dressed in suspicious costumes, said to Zero in frustration when they first met: "We are going to conduct a tracking operation, can't we wear more professionally?" ”
“… Isn't it more noticeable to be like a Master? Zero wanted to say this, but looking at the excited Lie, he smiled, and naturally held Lie's arm and attached it affectionately.
"Well, because I didn't tell them, don't be discovered." While following from behind, Lie said to Zero, "Remember, our mission is to observe their this time..."'date'?" … This allows you to decide whether to proceed with the next step. ”
“… Eh, they've turned, let's keep up! ”
Lie took Zero's hand and ran forward quickly, although he could know their location at any time because of the presence of the machine spirits.
“… Is that? After Lie led Zero to follow for a while, he found that Natsumi and Moriki were the first to enter the store, and it seemed to be a restaurant.
It's also a good choice to replenish your energy before going shopping. Lie carefully hid Zero behind her, she was wearing regular clothes, and she was easily recognized.
"Welcome, master!"
After opening the door, Yeol was taken aback by the situation inside... This is a maid café!
Lie unconsciously glanced at Zero, and subconsciously compared the girls in the maid costume in front of him with Zero... Well, sure enough, Zero is even cuter!
"Master, Zero seems to feel a strange gaze, is it an illusion?"
“…”
Ryuki quickly found Moriki and Natsumi in the store, so he found a convenient and hidden place to sit down.
"Hello, can you call me the master? Or another name..."
"No way!" Zero suddenly became a little tough, his little eyes widened, and he looked at the maid waiter and said, "It's not okay to call Master Master..."
The clerk looked at Zero and Lie in a little surprise, hesitated for a moment, looked at Lie's tall height and said, "So, sister?" ”
"This one does." Zero picked up the tea on the side, indicating that he could accept this title... It's not good to call zero, right? However, Lie felt that this was also appropriate, especially when Zero was by his side.
"What do you need to order?" the maid clerk took out the menu, and Lie handed it over to Zero Choice, and he kept observing Moriki and Natsumi in front of him.
It's a little strange to say.,I always feel like I've experienced a similar scene before.,It seems to be with Zero... Probably an illusion, Lie picked up the drink handed by Zero and drank it.
Moriki and Natsumi sat there very happily, and it could be seen that Moriki was quite happy... As for Natsumi, her face is also full of smiles, and she is very happy compared to this time.
After all, it's been a long time since I've been shopping with my sister, even if it's an unfamiliar place... As long as my sister likes it, it's about this kind of thinking.
Lie nodded slowly, and at this moment, the maid clerk brought the selected food.
"Master, what if... If the Master likes such an atmosphere, then zero... It could be done better..."Zero's voice was very small, especially when it came to the last sentence, which was completely inaudible.
"What did you say?" Yeol had been focusing on the sister in front of him, when he heard Zero seem to be talking to him, and asked.
"No, nothing." Zero skimmed his head and began to enjoy his food.
Lie shook his head, observing and eating... The maid restaurant is just the first stop, the next place and of course the shop for shopping!
Moriki led Natsumi to draw the gacha on the capsule toy machine, and because Lie followed, he also hid with Zero in the gacha machine on the other side.
"Ah, this is?" Lie took out a gacha, which is a random lottery method, and when he opened it, he found that it was a small trinket... It is one of the teammates of the clumsy magical girl Fukiyuki-chan, Yutachi-chan.
"It's very beautiful, Zero seems to have become a local girl compared to her~" Lie handed over the trinkets to Zero and jokingly told her.
"Xili..."Zero looked at the jewelry in his hand in a daze, and always felt that there was something to think of, but in the end it didn't.
"Ah, they've shifted, let's go!" Lie took Zero's hand and hurried towards the next location... Next, Moriki seems to want to go shopping, of course, the goods are those sister games and the figures of the clumsy magical girl Fuyuki-chan series.
…
"It was a rewarding day." Sitting on the tram on the way home, Lie said to Zero.
Of course, it is full of harvest, Moriki bought a lot of favorite items today, and it was with his favorite sister. Lie followed all the way and determined the next course of action, while Zero carried a large number of accessories obtained because of the tracking.
"Today was a very rewarding day." Zero has trinkets in the palm of his hand, and his eyes are full of sweetness.
…
Night, Lie's residence.
"Gathering, gathering?" Xia Mei was very surprised when she heard Lie say this on the phone, and asked, "Offline gatherings sound a little unreliable...."
"No problem, it's all ready... As long as Natsumi and Moriki agree, I'll give the application to the organizers... Well, actually, I wanted to organize my own organization, but I happened to meet an organization that had already been established... If it's a weekend, you should be able to spare time, right? ”
“… On weekends, it should be fine... However, the offline party always feels a little... Ah, it's not that I don't believe in Lie, it's just..."
"I understand, after all, I don't know anyone... But it was an opportunity for Moriki to make friends who shared the same hobbies without having to make changes at school. ”
"It's... That's right. Natsumi fell silent, thinking.
Lie paused for a moment, and then said, "After coming back from going shopping together, didn't Natsumi say that Moriki rarely gets so excited?" It can be seen that Moriki is quite fond of these... If she can have friends with the same hobbies, she will definitely be even happier. ”
"That's what I think~" Lie lay on the bed, looking at the information on the laptop, and said to Natsumi, "So, what is your answer?" ”
"I... I'll ask Moriki if she agrees. ”
"Okay, just send me a text later."
"Goodbye."
Lie hung up the phone, his eyes swept around the computer screen, and muttered to himself: "Time is urgent, I can only rely on the power of the machine spirit... However, as long as the final result is good enough! ”
As I said before, letting Natsumi and Moriki go to Beicheng Anime Street together is just the first step, and the next thing is the offline party! Hawkers, Lie knows his situation very well, so not only do he have to complete their commission, but he also hopes that they can... Happiness?
"Are you a god?" Lie laughed self-deprecatingly, shook his head and said to himself: "Just do what you can, after all, there is a machine spirit, and you should be able to do a lot of things." ”
"Moriki... Natsumi... It's all good. Lie blinked, got a text message of approval, and sent out the application to participate in the offline party on the weekend... Ah, the offline gathering of the otaku girls, I think something very interesting will happen.
It's a pity that Lie can't see it, because Lie won't be following in the dark this time... If you must go, follow it in a dignified manner.
Just as Lie was finishing the matter, opening the starting point website on his laptop, and consulting his novel again, his mobile phone suddenly rang.
"It's... Aina? Lie blinked, not knowing what was going on with Aina looking for her so late.
"Toot toot... Feed? , good evening, is it Lie? On the other end of the line, Aina's crisp voice came.
“…”
“… So, I'm sorry, I gave Lie's number to her without Lie's permission. ”
"It's okay." Lie replied: "It's just weird, why don't you ask me yourself?" ”
"Probably it has something to do with her character, and there must be no malice... In addition, it may be related to the showdown with Lie. ”
"Duel?" Lie was stunned for a moment... I've been very busy these days, but I forgot about the duel with the blazing flames... But what exactly does that mean, seeing that the time is about to come, but it is not even clear what the duel is about.
"Then don't bother Lie to review, see you tomorrow, good night." Aina hung up the phone, and only the sound of "beep" was left on the other end of the phone.
Lie put down his phone, got out of bed, and opened the window to look at the night sky outside... It's a beautiful night, and the evening breeze is cool.
Just now, Aina called and told Lie that she had given Lie's contact number to the inquiring Blaze, and mentioned the duel... If there's anything important going on at the school lately, it's that?
"Lie~!" Just when Lie was stunned, the window next door opened, and Reina shouted in surprise.
Then, North Springs. Reina opened the window completely, and then jumped in lightly, she was already familiar with this road.
"Can't sleep?" Reina's long hair was wet, it seemed that she had just taken a bath, and she was still wearing pajamas, and a fragrance came to her face.
"I just read Lie's novel before, can I complain to the author?" Sitting naturally on the lie bed, Reina said to Lie while arranging her hair.
"Of course." Ryogo get some juice and snacks... The last commission is coming to an end, and the mood is really complicated.
