Lu Mingfei was walking around the base, and the base in Chaldea was very large, and it was easy to get lost in the similarly shaped corridors even if they had a map.

After the tiring training, he went to the infirmary on weekdays, except for staying quietly in the dormitory and secretly playing games with the giant bull's computer, which claimed to be able to observe the past and the future.

It's too hard for him to wander around in a modern base full of high-tech and magic, and if he accidentally breaks into a workshop or hidden room, the white-haired director will have something to bear.

If it weren't for the inexplicable rhetoric of that literary girl, he wouldn't have planned to go so deep into the Chaldean base.

Speaking of which, that girl's attitude towards him is quite wonderful, and she is also evaluated by the magicians above as she is too lonely to get along, and from time to time she will talk to Lu Mingfei in Chinese.

But when Lu Mingfei said with watery eyes that the fellow saw the fellow, she left with an indifferent face, saying that we are not so familiar yet.

Away from the main activity area of the employees, the huge base seems a little empty, and the white corridors are all the same, and it is easy to wonder if he has been here just now.

So after going around and around, Lu Mingfei, who was almost dizzy, finally arrived at the place where the note was written.

He took out his ID card and swept it, and the closed alloy door in front of him opened. The modern high-tech base naturally doesn't go there if you want to, and the access rights of the Imperial Alternate ID Card must be higher than that of ordinary employees, even if it is his at the end of the crane.

But Lu Ming was not afraid that he would be lost, so he didn't use it much.

"Excuse me......" said cautiously, he entered the door. There is a lot of space behind the door, the floor in the middle is hollowed out, and a fence surrounds it, like an observation deck.

The walls of the room were lined with computers, and the screens flashed with incomprehensible data. On the experimental equipment that I didn't recognize, there was a liquid flowing in the dense pipes that I didn't know if it was blood or medicine.

Lu Mingfei trembled inexplicably, he didn't like this room like a laboratory very much. For a moment, a dark room filled with all kinds of equipment flashed in his mind like an old photograph.

It was obviously just a visual illusion, but he really smelled the pungent smell of disinfectant in an instant, and the nausea almost made him vomit the rice he had just eaten.

Because it was meal time, the whole room was empty, and no one noticed his entry. Holding back his nausea, Lu Mingfei came to the guardrail and looked down, and then he was stunned.

Beneath the parapet is a dome made of blue, high-strength glass, and in the middle of it is a room with only one bed and one cupboard, which may not even meet the minimum requirements.

But none of that mattered, what mattered was that lying on that bed, the girl who was looking beyond the glass with blank eyes.

As if seeing Lu Mingfei, the girl's godless eyes moved slightly, revealing a look that she didn't know whether she was happy or surprised.

Lu Mingfei opened his mouth, and the old picture like a photo flashed in his mind again.

The dimly lit laboratory grew clearer and clearer, and the stains of blood on the small, rusty restraint bed were so clear.

And on the restraint bed, a boy like a girl in a glass room, also staring blankly at the dark ceiling, as if dead.

Gripping the guardrail tightly with both hands,

A "creaking" sound sounded, and the metal guardrail was deformed. There was a rush of high-heeled shoes stomping on the ground at the door, as if the departing employee had returned.

"Hey, who let you in!" With a coquettish shout, she didn't look very old, but the aggressive white-haired girl drank Lu Mingfei.

"Where have all the people on duty gone! Didn't you say that someone had to be here at any time! As if she didn't dare to look at the girl inside the glass, she looked at the empty room and gasped.

Then he turned his head and looked at Lu Mingfei, who was standing by the guardrail with his head bowed, without any movement, and said dissatisfiedly: "I remember you, the forty-eighth alternate master who only cheated and slipped during training!" Who let you in? Roman? However, no matter how she asked, Lu Mingfei, who lost his mind, was unmoved.

"I'm asking you!" The girl who didn't get an answer raised her hand and slapped it.

Lu Mingfei, who was still with his head down, raised his hand and easily blocked her hand. Holding her wrist with his backhand, Lu Mingfei pushed her away, gradually leaving the sight of the girl in the glass room.

"I'm the one who needs to ask questions." He lowered his head, his golden eyes illuminating the girl's pale and panicked face.

He said, "What did you think of him?" A canary in a birdcage for people to admire? Or a pretty little flower in the lab? Or, rats waiting for experiments......"

"Wait...... You let me go! Seemed to be frightened by the golden eyes, and forgot the identity of her famous magic family for a moment, the girl who was grabbed by the wrist reacted and said with an angry face.

“gandr！” She held up her other hand, and the black rays of cursed magic converged on her fingertips.

The body of an ordinary person is subjected to a direct attack of magic at such a distance, and the consequences are probably not as simple as lying down for a few days.

The black ball of light didn't enter Lu Mingfei's body, but it was useless, this guy who stayed in Chaldea with the qualification of a royal master, but was actually just an ordinary high school student, was not affected by magic at all.

"What is this?" Lu Mingfei continued to ask, his golden eyes brought substantial pressure,

"What's the difference between this and a prison? No, maybe the prison might be much freer than it is here. ”

"Do you really see her as a person?" Lu Mingfei lowered his head and looked at the girl at a fairly close distance.

The brain seemed to stop thinking, and the girl had no way to answer, and the golden eyes that looked like magic eyes brought endless pressure, according to the terminology of the magician world, this is the crushing of mystery.

Fortunately, this situation did not last long. The golden light dissipated, Lu Mingfei's eyes simply closed, and he fell to the ground with a snap.

…… woke up faintly, and the familiar ceiling made Lu Mingfei, who was still a little unconscious, stunned for a few seconds.

"Yo, are you awake?" It wasn't until a familiar voice came from his ears that he suddenly woke up. Some of the messy hair is tied into a ponytail, and the doctor who looks like he is not doing his job is watching the live broadcast of an Internet idol on a computer.

After Lu Mingfei woke up, he turned to face him, looking like he hadn't woken up. He scratched his hair and said helplessly, "What the hell have you done?" It's not like you, it's running so far. Do you know how long it took me to move you back? What's even more unfortunate is the person who asked me to move from the director, and you know her preaching. ”

"I seem to have a ......dream," Lu Mingfei, who seemed to have his eyesight affected and had a bit of a lake in front of him, said with a confused face,

"In my dream, I seem to have taught that annoying director a lesson."

"But the reality is that you were taught a lesson, but you, and you woke up so quickly after a gandr, are you really an ordinary person?" The doctor sighed a little weakly,

"Why are you there? Although it is not a too confidential place, there will be no publicity everywhere, especially the director. ”

"Don't you know if I'm an ordinary person......" Finally remembering what he had forgotten, Lu Mingfei sat up all of a sudden, and asked loudly,

"What the hell is going on? Why is Matthew there! The questioned doctor's eyes darkened for a moment, and his voice was a little lower: "That's her room...... Wards, to be exact. For some reason, she was physically vulnerable, and it wasn't until a while ago that she was allowed to walk out of the ward and move into the facility as a staff member. ”

"So she stayed there until then?" Lu Ming couldn't help but clench his palms,

"...... like a prisoner"

"Hey, hey, it's not like you're used to saying things like that." The doctor said, handing over a work card,

"Take this, with this, you can be my assistant, free to go in and out of there."

"I agreed with the former acting director, originally there was a period of time, and after confirming that her physical signs were normal, she could leave there and transfer to the ordinary staff room." The doctor glanced at Lu Mingfei,

"But thanks to you, the process has been shortened. I don't know what you and the director have said, but she agreed to let her out of there when Matthew gets used to life outside. The doctor shoved him with a few books and said, "It's my job, but I think you'd be more than happy to do it, right?" Lu Mingfei lowered his head and looked at these Sherlock Holmes detective books that were still selling well in the outside world, and the font on them was so clear.

Then he looked up and looked at the doctor's unusually mist-shrouded face. …… The memories that I thought had disappeared became clearer little by little, and Fujimaru Rika silently covered the box and stood up.

He stood by the door, silently looking at the girl surrounded by flowers. She didn't feel the pain on her body, and picked up the petals with a mind that didn't match her appearance, like a child, and then threw them high, admiring the petals under the rain with a happy face.

Standing quietly in front of the door, he sighed silently: "...... Forget it, it's just another time. Turning to enter the main house, he sent the suitcase brought by the girl and the living expenses to the guest room.

"Do you want to go there?" After Qingyu's breakfast, Fujimaru Rika asked suddenly. The near-noon sun filtered in through the window, dispelling the last chill of the morning.

The two of them sat in the wooden hallway, eating watermelon and listening to the sound of flowing water in the small pool.

As if sensing a subtle change in his attitude, Eri sat up, bowed her head and wrote on the paper, "Can you go anywhere?" ”

"Nature is a place where you can go." Fujimaru Rika nodded. After pondering for a long time, Eri suddenly thought of something and wrote, "Is it okay to go to Tokyo Tower?" But my brother doesn't seem to want me to go back to Tokyo. That being said, the look in her eyes that she hid behind her notebook was very expectant.

Glancing sideways at the TV that was still playing in the main room, Fujimaru Rika nodded with a chuckle: "Of course you can, do you want to go at night?" With a smile in her eyes, Eri nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and then wrote, "If only there was a moon tonight." Rika Fujimaru smiled silently, Tokyo Tower, cherry blossoms, and the moon.

How many people's memories are of the final battle place of a certain magician. …… On a chaotic street corner, in the middle of a nondescript ramen stall.

"Oh, Daddy Yue, you haven't opened the door for a few days, I thought you really ran back to France!" Eating noodles in a big gulp, Kiritani said loudly,

"Seeing that old street being blocked, I was still a little unwilling. Although the noodles you make are not delicious and very picky, you are still a little unaccustomed to suddenly not having to eat. ”

"Eat your noodles quietly." Uesugi Koshi, who was standing aside smoking a cigarette, glanced at him. He said that he was going to take a few days off, but after he was really free, he found that Tokyo was so big that he didn't have the place he wanted to go.

So he pushed the ramen stall that hadn't been touched for several days, found a street corner and stopped, and continued to sell noodles.

The movement that occurred at Genji Heavy Industries in Shinjuku last night was not small, and many people were talking about it this morning.

In addition to the Tokyo Skytree, which is still under construction, Genji Heavy Industries, which is faintly on a par with Tokyo Tower, is also one of the symbols of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, and the degree of discussion is naturally not low.

Silently retracting his gaze from the direction of Shinjuku, Uesugi looked at Kiritani, who was drinking soup, and asked inexplicably, "Kiritani, do you have any brothers and sisters?" ”

"Have a sister? What's wrong? Kiritani replied subconsciously, and then remembered what was the same positive as saying,

"Looking at Daddy Yue's usual indecent appearance, let me remind you, if you want to say that you want to introduce her boyfriend or something, you don't have to, she's a kendo master."

"Who is going to introduce what boyfriend, and what does this have to do with kendo? My son...... No, nothing. Uesugi stopped talking.

Kiriya asked with a look of surprise, "Huh? Do you still have a son? I've never heard you mention it. ”

“…… I only saw it recently. Uesugi who said the wrong thing simply admitted it. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Have you ever had a conflict with your sister?" The kind that is very deep and deep. ”

“…… Daddy, your family situation seems to be a little complicated. Kiritani said sympathetically,

"There are contradictions, but after I decided not to practice kendo anymore, she didn't pay much attention to me."

"You guys actually practiced kendo?" Uesugi asked with a look of surprise.

"I've said I'm pretty good at swords." Kiritani said with a smug face,

"But I probably can't help you if it's contradictory, after all, my sister doesn't say it, but she still likes me very much." Uesugi glanced at him again: "Why do I think you're showing off?" ”

"You heard it right, it's showing off."
