'Ringing ......'

??????

'Ringing Bell Bell ......'

??????????

“……”

(ー`?? ー)

At night, on the bench of this brightly lit street park, a little girl was frowning and watching her mobile phone vibrate and alarm constantly, she stared straight at the caller information displayed on the interface of the mobile phone, and looked at the picture of 'Shirai Kuroko is calling you ......' and did not move, but did not answer the phone, and did not take the initiative to hang up, even if many pedestrians and students passing by cast strange glances at her, even if those people looked at her with strange eyes, she didn't mind at all.

Because, she knows, knows that only in this way can the other party hang up directly or automatically hang up after the call time reaches the upper limit, so that the person who calls her can feel that she is not deliberately not answering, but is doing something else and does not hear the ringtone, or thinks that she does not bring her mobile phone with her, so as to achieve the purpose of not listening to some people's calls?

'Beep~! ’

Sure enough, after a while, when the frowning and half-squinting little Anne herself was a little impatient, the call display on the mobile phone finally hung up by itself, and made the call interface on her own mobile phone change back to the standby screen, and let there be an eye-catching reminder of missed calls on the top.

"Aha!!"

?? (????????????)????

"Tibbs, look? I'll just say it, as long as you resolutely don't answer the phone, as long as you pretend not to have the phone on you or don't hear it, that sunspot sister will give up after two or three calls at most! ”

???? (*???? `*)????

"She's given up now, and now she can finally enjoy our dessert happily!!"

?? *???? (ˊ?? ˋ*)???? *??

After seeing that the mobile phone in her hand finally stopped, Little Anne cheered, threw the annoying mobile phone directly to the chair next to her, and then hugged the large glass of creamy popcorn with a sweet taste that she had just bought, ready to enjoy her own snack time.

Click!

"Uh-huh......"

(??????????????)

Click~!

"Ha~!!"

ε=(?????? *)))?? It's delicious......

Today's school holiday, in the morning and afternoon, she played with those young ladies all day, and finally found an excuse to 'escape' by herself, and was able to wander outside until now, so she didn't want to go back to that dormitory so early!

Besides, it's still early, far from the time when the dormitory access curfew starts to be closed and strictly forbidden to enter and exit, so Anne is not in a hurry at the moment, she has time to slowly enjoy the large cup of sweet cream popcorn in her arms, and it is not too late to go back after eating them?

(Little master, don't you want to think about it, in case, your Shirai Kuroko-sanko really has something very important and important to call you?) Can't you answer the phone first? Anyway, it doesn't waste much time to answer a phone call......

(●￣(??) ￣●)

- Even Tibbs can't stand the bad behavior of his own bad little master who refuses to answer calls from others three times...... After all, if that Shirai Kuroko called her so persistently three times in a row, then there must be something 'some' slightly more important! But it's a pity, even if it Tiebs had just vaguely 'reminded' the other party, but what kind of guy who only cares about his own playfulness and waiting to enjoy a snack can listen to his advice? ）

"I don't want it!!"

o(?? ^')o hum!

After mercilessly rejecting a bear's suggestion, Anne continued to 'click' and 'click' on her delicious treat.

Today, the school is closed for various reasons, and the labor punishment of the aunt of the housekeeper has also been solved once and for all by her clever means, and it is still early, so little Anne does not feel that there will be anything important to call to trouble herself before she goes back!

In her opinion, it must be those two guys who were fined for their scholarships pretending to 'accidentally' forget to let themselves 'by the way' bring some supper or snacks back to each other or something, like that kind of super troublesome thing, she won't be fooled again!

After all, although she doesn't care about the little things that the other party never buys for herself, Queen Anne is not a courier or a takeaway brother, so she doesn't have time to bring food and food to the three guys in the dormitory every day!!

Not to mention that their hateful fellows never give money, even if they do!

Because, she won't let go of eating, drinking, and having fun that is super meaningful to her and not do it, so don't think about calling her anymore, even if the relationship is good, it's a matter of principle, and there is no room for compromise.

"Uh-huh......"

（?????? ）

"Unless they keep calling and prove that there is something else important, I won't be bothering with their bad guys at this point!!"

?? (????????)??

However, Anne herself knows that the young lady Kuroko has called three times just now, and according to the usual situation, the impatient guy will definitely not call again, if he calls again, then maybe there is something important?!

??????

'Ringing Bell Bell ......'

“！！”

!？ (??''????)??

However, little Anne had just stopped whispering to her little bear, and she was soon shocked to find that the mobile phone that she had thought would never ring again tonight had vibrated and rang around her again?

"It's annoying......"

(lll￢ω￢)

Unexpectedly, little Annie, who had thought badly, had to stop the movements in her hands, and her little mouth, which had been chewing delicious popcorn, couldn't help but pout.

（…… ）

(●￣(??) ￣●)

"Damn fellow, if there is nothing important......"

(ー`?? ー)

After stopping the kind of pleasure that made me feel like eating popcorn non-stop, and finding that the phone still had no intention of stopping, little Anne had to put the big bucket of sweet snacks on the other side of her angrily, and then impatiently picked up the broken phone with the primitive and ugly ringtone, and brought the glowing screen to herself.

In this current situation, I'm afraid she doesn't want to take it......

"Hey?"

Feed! ~ o(*￣▽￣*)ブ

"Is it Miss Kuroko? Do you have anything important? If not, I'm going to hang up, because they're going back soon, and they're on their way back, and the battery doesn't seem to be running out......"

?? (????????)

After opening her eyes and talking nonsense, glancing at the 90% battery display on the mobile phone screen, and looking at the almost full battery of the mobile phone that is enough to standby for more than half a month, even if you use it regularly, it can be used for several days before it needs to be charged, little Anne pouted a little boringly, and after pressing the speaker, she threw it on the knee of her little short leg.

"Uh-huh......"

o(*?????? *)o

"The signal here doesn't seem to be very good...... Sister Kuroko, maybe we can talk about it when we go back, I'm really going to hang up?! ”

(?????? ▽??????)

Picking up her popcorn again, little Anne said impatiently while eating without waiting for the other party to talk.

She wasn't actually lying, because compared to the communicators she had used in Shield Shield and the communications devices she had used in the Kpopru Zone, the battery of this backward phone was really not much, and besides, there was a reason why she said that.

Because, if it's the kind of thing that brings something, it's absolutely impossible! Of course, nothing else, she wouldn't let those guys keep calling her around! The bad habits of those guys, she must resolutely resist and resolutely correct them!!

For example, the next time you deliberately go out without your mobile phone, you just throw this thing in the dormitory?

'Please wait!!' ’

'Annie! That's right, we want to know, now that Intix guy, is she with you?! ’

It's a pity that before Anne could reach out and hang up the phone, the voice of a young lady Shirai Kuroko who finally got through after calling several times came out of the speaker of the mobile phone in a hurry.

"Huh?!"

(???? _?? `)？

"I don't think we're together...... What's the matter, I remember she wasn't fooling around with the four of you guys today?! ”

o(*°▽°*)o？

Subconsciously startled, and turned her head to look around her and around the place where it seemed that people could hide, and found that there was no terrible thing like a starving ghost reincarnated that suddenly ran over and grabbed food from herself, little Anne exhaled a little and said with confidence.

If that Miss Intex was by her side, the other party would have rushed over and wiped out the popcorn in her hand in a very short time, where would she have the opportunity to sit comfortably on the bench like this, and slowly enjoy it one by one with her two little feet?

'Huh?! ’

Are you sure she's not with you? It's over, it's terrible......

'Sister, Anne said Intix wasn't with her!!' ’

'What? ’

So where will she go? ’

'How do I know?! ’

‘……’

Suddenly, a certain black lady directly stopped paying attention to little Annie, but began to talk anxiously with Mai Trin on the other end of the phone, and that kind of nervous atmosphere even affected little Annie.

“！！”

’(°ー°〃)

"Hello? What's wrong, Sister Kuroko? What's the situation, is something terrible happening to Miss Intix?! ”

(???? ω?? `)？？

Listening to the other party's voice from the speaker of the mobile phone and the urgent tone seemed to be really a little wrong, little Anne frowned and thought about it, and her heart ached, and finally held back the impatience in her heart at the beginning, and asked out loud in confusion.

Because she heard it, it seems that something happened to that Intix? Could it be, the other party broke out the small universe again and razed the school's dormitory to the ground, right? But it stands to reason that that kind of thing should be impossible to happen again, because Anne is very sure that she has stabbed the other party's certain prohibition that can harm life and memory and explode the small universe with one shot, and it is still the painless kind! Therefore, she said that she was really a little curious about the panicked reaction of a certain sunspot lady on the other end of the phone.

'Annie! ’

In the afternoon, the five of us walked around for a while before going back to change clothes...... Then Intix, she said that she had nothing to eat with us, so she ran to you......

"Oh......"

(lll￢ω￢)

I knew that this would be the case, and it was clear that the hateful fellow who claimed to have memorized 43,000 copies of the Demon Dao Book was so proud that he didn't want it, as if he had already treated her Queen Anne as a free meal ticket.

'Then ......'

'We just went to your dormitory and we haven't seen her come back until now, and there has been no one in your dormitory, and we haven't seen her come back for dinner......

‘……’

'You called you several times and you didn't answer, we thought she was with you!! ’

Well, maybe she was really captured by the red-haired 'lewd thief' magician, and maybe she was suffering some kind of inhumane torture!!" ’

'Hello? Feed?! ’

'Anne, are you still listening?' Feed?! ’

The fiery voice of Miss Kuroko in the speaker of the mobile phone finally made things clear, and then shouted loudly again, and that kind of sound also made many passers-by once again cast that curious glance at a certain little girl who had not returned to Tokiwadai Middle School so late.

'Hello?! ’

'Annie? Are you listening?! ’

Obviously, a gluttonous who was punctual for three meals a day suddenly disappeared, making Shirai Kuroko very nervous, and couldn't help but worry about whether the other party had encountered some unfortunate thing.

"I'm listening......"

(lll￢ω￢)

In fact, just after the little sister said that a certain greedy guy was missing, Little Anne used her divine sense to quickly sweep it in this school city for the first time, and accurately figured out the whereabouts of that Intix!

However, she didn't give Miss Kuroko an explanation......

Because, that Miss Intixes was indeed captured, but not the red-haired magician, but someone else! However, she is just a LV5 flame control superpower now, and she doesn't want anyone to know that she has powers other than LV5's flame control ability, so she didn't tell the other party so much.

However, Miss Intix's can't be 'found' without hurrying back, she is now urgently thinking of a way, wanting to come up with a good way to get the best of both worlds, without having to be too prominent, and to be able to perfectly complete her behavior?

'Damn! You guy, this kind of thing, please take it a little seriously! ’

'Yikes! Sister, don't rob it......

‘……’

'Hello? Annie? ’

"Yes! Sister Mai Trin, I'm listening, what do you want to do? ”

(，，??????，，)

After hearing the other end of the phone frolicking for a while, and then the voice of Miss Shirai Kuroko changed to someone else, Little Anne didn't have to think much to know who was snatching the phone and talking to her.

‘！！ ’

Just listen, what I want to ask is: Do you know what Intex would go to where she would often go or where she might go? ’

If you know, look for it! It's not early, you have to hurry! Also, don't miss our calls!! ’

'That's right! ’

"I'm going to be in charge of the dormitory soon, I'll go to your dormitory with Kuroko and help you make some disguises, if you really can't find it, remember to call us, I'll sneak out with Kuroko with your spatial mobility ability to help you!" ’

'Hey! Sister-sama......

'Don't rob! ’

'Hello? Annie, did you understand what you just said?! ’

A gluttonous guy suddenly disappeared and didn't come back to eat, that kind of thing must be very abnormal for both Kuroko Shirai and Mikoto Misaka! What's more, there was just a big battle yesterday, and they all knew that someone wanted to be bad for each other?

So, just after seeing off Hatsuharu and Saten, they kept calling and getting through to Annie's cell phone for a long time, and finally confirmed that something might be bad for them.

"Uh-huh......"

???? (??????????????)????????

"Okay, I got it, I'll go now! Uh-huh...... Then I'll hang up first?! ”

Beep~!?? (°ー°〃)

It's so long-winded!!

As soon as she stretched out her hand, without giving the other party a chance to continue grinding, she pressed directly on the red button on the mobile phone screen that ended the fairy tale, and then Little Anne stuffed the annoying mobile phone into her pocket, and then began to pick up her big cup of paper tube popcorn like a small bucket and began to eat it one by one with relish.

（…… ）

(●￣(??) ￣●)

(Great little master, you just scanned it with your divine sense, wasn't that Intikus captured by the bad guys?) Why, you're not worried at all right now, and you're still in the mood to eat here?!

(??????????)

- Tibbs was a little puzzled by the fact that a certain bad little master was still in the mood to stay here and eat popcorn grain by grain, and swayed his legs proudly, as if he didn't have the slightest idea of rushing to save people. ）

"Shut up! Tibbs!! ”

（?? ╭╮?? ）

"People aren't eating right now!"

( ̄~ ̄) Chew!

"People are turning grief and anger into appetite and trying to replenish nutrients to the brain, so that they can think of a good way!!"

ε=(?????? *)))?? It's delicious......

"And, if you think about it, Miss Kuroko and Miss Mai Trin just called to say that Miss Intex was missing, and then they went straight to the door, and they found and rescued the greedy guy from the hands of the evil demon king...... Wouldn't that kind of thing be weird if someone else knew about it?! ”

s(?? ｀ヘ????; )ゞ

"So!"

"People are now thinking of a better way, not only to be able to save Miss Intex in time, but also to try not to attract the attention of others, and not let others think about it......"

(???????? -)??

Yes, it would have been a bit too abrupt if little Anne had called the door now...... It was really easy to make some of the guys who had been secretly watching and watching her every move suspicious, so she had to think of a good way not to feel so strange, and she had to make her behavior logical.

(Really, so troublesome...... So when will you come up with a good solution? You heard it just now, it's not too early, wait any longer, you will be punished tomorrow.

?????? ~??????

- If it were Tiebs himself, if anyone dared to touch his own people, it would have hit the door a long time ago! Then, just wring off the other party's head and eat it in one bite, where will you take care of the tail like now?

Sure enough, it's really too difficult to be a human being or something, so it's easier to be a bear...... In short, it Tiebs doesn't have to think much about doing things, if it weren't for the little master, it can do whatever it wants, bite whoever it wants, and eat whoever it wants!! ）

"I didn't think ......."

(ー`?? ー)

"Anyway, the popcorn hasn't been eaten yet, so you just let me think about it slowly......"

(，，??????????，，)

Little Anne said that she was now trying to think and scan the city with her divine sense, and was constructing a plausible plan in her mind......

In short, it takes sugar and energy to think about that kind of thing, but she thinks that when her popcorn is eaten, she must be able to think of a better, logically reasonable way!

So

All she needs to do now is work hard to finish this large bucket of sweet and delicious popcorn! After eating and drinking, she can pat her little belly and go!

As for the Intix......

It doesn't matter, because ah, the bad guy who captured Intix, the other party hasn't made a dangerous move until now, and it doesn't seem to have done that kind of weird thing to a greedy guy, so she's not in a hurry at all~!

（…… ）

(lll￢?? ￢)

——————————

“……”

"Whew!!"

Looking at the four high-rise buildings connected together in the distance in the night, Steele with a cigarette in his mouth?? Magnus sighed softly.

Today, he had to meet someone he hadn't seen in more than three years, and he didn't know what the outcome would be...... However, he had to go, because he had a mandate, and the people he valued most and swore to protect were among them! Although, he also knew that the guy inside should not do such a dangerous thing, but he was still a little relieved after all!

Moreover......

"Tsk!!"

"It's not too early now, didn't that guy who was split say he was going to bring the person who the client said could deal with magic? Why is it all here now, and it hasn't come yet?! ”

Looking at the sky, looking at the trajectory of the moon in the sky, and knowing that it was not too early, Steele muttered a little impatiently, and directly spit out the cigarette that was about to burn to the filter on his mouth to the ground.

"Hey!"

(?? _??)

"It's not right for red-haired studded villains to spit cigarette butts everywhere and smoke in public!!"

(??????????????)

Suddenly, at this moment, the extremely familiar and cute voice of a little girl sounded behind Steele, which really startled him!!

“？！”

"You! It's you?! ”

Realizing that the person he was waiting for didn't come, it was someone he would never want to see a second time, and after seeing the little guy in the Tokiwa Taichung school uniform coming out of the street lamp behind him and winking mischievously at him, Steele took a few steps back in horror.

Yesterday, although he ran away shamefully with the gods at a critical moment, he could see clearly that Intix, who had burst out with terrible magical power for some unknown reason, the guy who couldn't take it together, was finally defeated and turned back under the hands of the little girl in front of him!

Therefore, if he could, he really didn't want to be entangled by the other party tonight, when he still had an important task.

"Hah!"

|?? ˙?? ˙)！！

"Are you afraid of me?"

(???? ω????)

As soon as she turned out from behind the streetlight, she noticed that the guy had a faint idea of escaping, and little Anne couldn't help but feel a little proud.

“……”

Steele didn't speak, but after hearing the little girl's words and mocking eyes, he gritted his teeth, forced himself to stand still, did not continue to retreat, and temporarily extinguished the idea of escaping.

"Hey!!"

(?????? ▽??????)

"Strange uncle, my Intix has been captured by the bad guys, and I feel that she is nearby, and you are here in a thief...... So, tell me, did you take her away?! ”

s (???? ˇεˇ????) ゞ

Anne knew that it wasn't the other party who took Intix, but since the other party was here now, since the other party seemed nervous, she didn't say it, the other party must know something, she must have teased the other party first, and then, even if she pretended to ask the other party about the situation, it would be good!

"Hmm......"

"Nope! I didn't do it, I didn't take Intix......"

Frowning, Steele thought about it, and finally used his innocent and calm eyes to look at the little girl with the dangerous LV5 flame control superpower, and used his body language to express his innocence.

"Isn't it?"

(ー`?? ー)

"If it wasn't for the bad things you did, if you didn't capture Intix, then what do you want to do here?!"

s(?? ｀ヘ????; )ゞ

Finding out that the other party also knew about Intix's arrest, little Annie, who felt that things had become more interesting, simply did not rush to find someone in the four-conjoined high-rise building, but first planned to interrogate the guy in front of him who didn't look like a good person.

"Heh......"

"Intex should be in that 'Misawa Juku' over there right now...... It's just, little girl, I don't understand, how did you find me here, and then you still feel that Intex is nearby?! ”

Yes, that's what Steele is most curious about right now!

You know, if it weren't for the fact that he happened to have a mission and needed to come to Misawa Juku to investigate, and if it weren't for the fact that he and God Crack had been staring at Intix, I'm afraid they wouldn't have found it very easy for them to find here! Therefore, he is now very curious about the little girl in front of him, this little girl with the ability to find this place even though she doesn't know magic and can't track magic.

"It's easy!"

(?????? ▽??????)

"Because, whoever has fought with me, or who has been burned by me with flames, I can easily rely on the remaining flames on your body?? The breath has come up! ”

< ( ̄) ̄) ↗ Yay!

Yes, even if she didn't use her own divine sense to scan, little Annie only used LV5's flame control ability to find this badass mage and that gluttonous Intix!

（…… ）

(●￣(??) ￣●)

"Humph!"

"That's ...... so"

Nodding, Steele said that this statement was understandable......

After all, as far as he knew, those with LV4 or LV5 abilities, their strength could be said to be almost the same as magic, so he didn't think it was too difficult to accept the way the little girl in front of him who played with fire would find people according to the residual breath of the flames, because it seemed to be the same way he used the magic aura of the 'mobile church' on Intix's body to track down?

"Hey!"

（?? ╭╮?? ）

"You haven't said yet, what the hell are you trying to do here? Are you in the gang of the villains who captured Intix? Hurry up and be honest, or I'm going to set you on fire!! ”

?? (?????? ~????) ╭??

“……”

"I've been asked to come here to investigate the situation at Misawa Juku......"

After thinking about it, remembering what he had seen and heard in the windowless building full of pipes and circuits, Steele finally briefly stated why he was here.

If he hadn't had to wait here for the arrival of the Divine Crack with someone who was said to be helpful to their actions tonight, I'm afraid he would have run away with the runic magic of the 'Mirage', and how could he say so much to the little girl who was playing with fire in front of him?

“……”

(lll￢ω￢)

"But I think it's probably you!!"

?? (????????????)??

Even though he knew that the other party didn't seem to have anything to do with Intix's arrest, Little Annie, who found that she was being watched here, still pretended to ask.

After all, there are some rules of the game that must be followed, since others have not embarrassed themselves, have not exposed their identities and let themselves continue to play in this city, then she, Queen Anne, must also follow the tacit understanding between each other, she thinks that she doesn't know anything, just as if she is a LV5 flame superpower, and continues to let some guys keep an eye on her?

"Intix is in there......"

"Later, when one of our helpers arrives, you can go in with us, and when the time comes, I think you'll know that we have nothing to do with Intix's arrest."

Steele didn't go into any more explanations, but faintly pointed to the four connected buildings in the same place, and pointed to the place where Misawa Juku was.

"Huh?!"

∑(?? △｀)？！

"Does it really have nothing to do with you?!"

(ー`?? ー)

"There really is no ......"

With a sigh in his heart, Steele, who felt that the other party might be unreasonable, felt that it seemed as if it was time for him to change places, although doing so would make it troublesome for him to make the agreement with the God Split......

It's just that he doesn't know if the little girl in front of him is really as the other party said, as long as she has fought with the other party or been burned, as long as she is contaminated with the other party's flame breath, she will be easily found by the other party?

“……”

?? (?????? ~????) o

"Forget it! If you didn't do it, it's not, I'm going to go in and save Intix, so I don't have to be with you!! ”

o(｀^??) o Hmph!

After saying that, little Anne finally stopped making things difficult for the badass red-haired mage in front of her, but stepped out of her little short legs, carried her little bear Tibers, and walked towards the conjoined building in the distance.

“！！”

"Wait! There's a magic enchantment there, and it's not going to work if you go in like this!! ”

Originally, Steele didn't plan to get involved with that little LV5 girl who played with fire, but, thinking about the uncertainty of tonight's mission, thinking about the fact that the other party has already come here, and thinking about the fact that they have all looked for another ability student to help, then now, it seems that it is not impossible to add another powerful little girl?
