Getting to Kyoto from Chiyo requires a transfer in Tokyo.

While waiting for the transfer, several people bought lunch boxes and exchanged them for food.

"By the way, President, I'll perform a magic trick for you."

Before getting into the car, behind an unmanned pillar, Hoshikawa Aoi suddenly grabbed Shiratori Mayo's shoulder.

"Huh? Now is the time? ”

She paused in confusion.

Li Wu also stopped to see what they were going to do.

Hoshikawa Aoi reached out in front of Shiratori, and the white light covered the part of her wrist, revealing the cuffs of the magical girl outfit in part.

Before Shiratori could react, Hoshikawa Aoi had already traced a vertical line with her finger that forked in the middle to resemble a deer's antlers, and then pushed forward, and the faint pattern floated into her head.

"THE RUNE 'ALGIZ' THAT REPRESENTS THE MEANING OF PROTECTION - BUT I'M NOT GOOD AT THIS MYSELF, SO THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PROTECTION CAN BE IGNORED, MAINLY FOR THE CONVENIENCE OF THE PRESIDENT, REMEMBER TO WRITE DOWN THE IDEA IN THE NOTEBOOK AT ANY TIME, OTHERWISE YOU WILL FORGET IT LATER?"

Unless a specific method of cognitive interference is applied, ordinary people are not completely unaware of anomalous events or the existence of supernatural beings, just like ordinary students were involved in Yuichi Uehara's attack on the school, but their memories will hide under the subconscious ocean afterwards and be forgotten over time.

If it hadn't been long, they would have been able to recall similar experiences that had happened before when they encountered the supernatural event again.

What Hoshikawa Aoi is doing now is equivalent to using a rune that constantly shows her sense of existence to continuously remind Shiratori that Mai Shiratori is now in an abnormal situation, lest she forget what happened in the middle of her trip.

Although this method can only last for a while, it is enough for her to accumulate materials - the helpful magical girl still remembers the main purpose of Shiratori's trip.

"Is that what you're going to do?"

Li Wu asked beside him.

"After all, it was an invitation from Sister Yuki, but we just need to be visitors from the sidelines."

Hoshikawa Aoi returned to her original state and withdrew her hand, and Mai Shiratori stood in place in confusion due to the impact of her memory, and was pulled by her hand and boarded the train.

"So...... Arisa is a vampire, you are a magical girl, and Li Wujun did the high-rise building collapse last month? ”

After finding a seat, Shiratori looked at everyone incredulously, "Am I the only one who doesn't know anything?" ”

The four nodded in unison.

"It's not fair!"

She covered her face with a scream, "I'm the only one who was left out, and I'll forget what happened this time!" It's like a clown! ”

"Well, I think President Shiratori can write down the valuable experience in a form that will be forgotten later...... Just advice. ”

Arisa suggested.

"-Arisa, you're right!"

She took out her tablet as if she was inspired, "I'll first rewrite the previous events into fantasy materials and write them down, if there are any omissions and mistakes in the details, you have to remind me?" The first is that the school was attacked by the Hyakki Night Walk......"

Will it really be forgotten?

Mai Shiratori thought inwardly.

The memories I think of now seem to coincide with the images I thought were visual illusions before......

"Looks like it's up to the momentum."

Looking at the light family who began to write hard, Li Wu relieved his heart a little.

"Li Jun cares about growing up very much."

Still according to the previous seating arrangement, Hoshikawa Aoi and him happened to be in a face-to-face position, "When I drew the rune of Rune just now, you seemed a little nervous, do you think I will do something bad?" ”

She asked angrily.

"That's because you suddenly used magic in public."

He flexed his finger and flicked it on the head of the approaching magical girl.

The train pulled into Kyoto Station, and they got off the platform with their luggage.

"What's next?"

Li Wu looked at Xingchuan, who was holding his mobile phone to study.

"Hmm, it should, maybe this route?"

"Let's take the Nara Line to Inari Station, I think it's written on it."

Shiratori Mao, who came next to her, said.

"Yes, yes, that's what I want to say!"

About five minutes later, the group got off the train at Inari Station and walked for a short time to the meeting point with Yuki Akabane.

Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine is a shrine dedicated to the god of ceres, who is in charge of agriculture, business, sake brewing, and other fields, and the main shrine of more than 30,000 Inari Shrines, and is also a famous tourist attraction.

Yuki Akabane, dressed in a red and white shrine maiden costume with a hydrangea pattern tattooed on the cuffs, stands under the large torii gate at the entrance, attracting the attention of many tourists.

Hoshikawa Aoi ran over first and gave her friend a hug she hadn't seen for a long time, and Miss Shrine smiled and waved to the group.

"Akabane Amon, did you finally choose to change jobs?"

Glancing at the witch costume, which was completely different from the previous style, Li Wu asked in surprise.

"This is a matter of the Lord...... Anyway, I've already heard Aoi say it. ”

She swept the few people behind him meaningfully, "High school students nowadays really know how to play. ”

"What do you understand?"

"Of course, it's like being free to understand."

After the greetings, she took everyone directly to the inside of the Inari Taisha Shrine.

"Don't we need to find a place to put our luggage?"

Shiratori Mao Yi caught up a few steps and walked side by side with Li Wu, "Is it too late for me to book a hotel now?" ”

"Don't bother, I've prepared a place to stay, I'll take you there now."

Miss Miko, who had walked in the front, turned around and shouted.

"Huh? Is there a place for guests to stay at Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine? ”

With this question in mind, they stepped over the large torii gate and the main entrance, and bronze fox statues were placed on either side of the shrine gate.

"It's a fox."

Hoshikawa Aoi, who stopped, stroked the head of the fox statue, and Airisa watched with interest.

"Does Arisa like foxes too?"

Li Wu asked curiously.

"Hmmm......"

She nodded slightly, "The orphan of the nine-tailed demon fox who was ostracized by everyone finally made friends, and I like that kind of story very much. ”

"It's just fiction, and the setting you said will change later."

Li Wu complained.

"What?! Could it be that the two protagonists didn't end up together? ”

Arisa's eyes widened in shock.

"Based on your definition of the Pink Fur that doesn't include the main character pack, I guess the answer also varies from person to person."

"Woo......"

She lowered her head in frustration, then suddenly grabbed the hem of his dress.

"I'm happy to be able to talk like this again."

The expression of frustration just now seemed to be played, and Arisa stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear.

Since the beginning of the summer vacation, aside from Hikari, who has to see every day, and Hoshikawa Aoi, who often goes out on dates, he really hasn't had any communication with Airisa.

When we met two days ago, she was also in an awkward state and did not speak alone.

The bronze fox statue that was touched by Hoshikawa next to him suddenly turned around and bit it, the magical girl grinned and withdrew her hand, and Yuki Akabane rushed up and pulled her away.

Looking at the light standing in the penultimate who didn't know what he was thinking, the two people who were close in the middle of the line, and the magical girl who happily rubbed the fox.

Shiratori Maoi, who fell to the end, looked away, and didn't even care about the miraculous thing like the fox statue that he thought was a dead thing, and sighed deeply.
