The moment Li Wu left the vampire mansion, the surrounding scene turned into a familiar subway tunnel.
After a while, the train arrived at the station, and the sudden space transfer came to an end.
Shiratori Mai walked in front with her hands behind her back, trying to portray an enigmatic and strong temperament, but her braided hair, which reflected the owner's joyful mood, completely ruined the atmosphere.
Surrounded by vast grasslands, a group of lions could be seen gathering in the distance. From the sun still shining in the sky, it could be judged that they had covered a distance of about six time zones in the blink of an eye.
"Have you listened to the hymn audio?"
Li Wu looked around, "I think the process of using abilities is much smoother."
"Li Wujun, can you still see this?"
"Because the subway is not shaking like last time and the arrival speed has been greatly improved. Have you optimized the running route?"
And it was obviously because he asked for help to check on his ability progress.
"uh-huh."
Shiratori Makoto turned around and pretended to cough a few times, holding her chest high, "That's almost the correct answer, but points will be deducted for the reaction. Shouldn't I be praised for working so hard?"
"You are simply a peerless genius in the world of superpowers. It would be the biggest dereliction of duty for Class Nine to not recruit you on the spot."
"The score of this statement feels quite subtle...but forget it, let's go on."
She extends her hand in an invitation, leading him into the next scene.
The invisible boundaries were overcome by superpowers, and the subway headed to a new station.
They received a piece of hexagonal crystal in the biting cold wind at the top of the snow-capped mountains, flashed through the waves of the endless ocean, and left two footprints in the dense subtropical jungle.
Uninhabited wilderness, bustling cities, dilapidated ruins, ancient churches...
It was like being suddenly locked into a constantly rotating kaleidoscope, and the myriad phenomena in the outside world gradually blurred into a thin line as the space changed faster and faster.
Travel everywhere and visit everywhere.
Shiratori Mayi can now call herself the freest Qing family on earth!
In the end, the ever-changing outside scene was fixed at the corner of a rural street, and the sky returned to the dim appearance it had when the two set out.
It's the end of the day.
She let go of her hand and turned around to bow as if ending a dance.
Therefore, literary and artistic youth are really in trouble, regardless of gender.
Li Wu sighed in his heart, clapped along with her, and walked together to the street where the flow of people was beginning to increase.
"Both the frequency and range have made a qualitative leap...there is only one problem left."
Although Shiratori Mai's performance just now can be said to be that of a celestial being, almost like a land fairy, but for the place they are going to reach, for the extraterrestrial battlefield set up by Lilith, they are only moving and staying in place on the planet's surface. Not moving can be completely equated.
"I know, but it's far from the limit now. It's just that the time to adapt is still too short."
She touched the shell of her ear.
The pseudo-hymn audio copied by Public Security Section 9 is still lingering in my mind, and I continue to push forward the power I gained from the aftermath of this experiment.
But the distance measured in astronomical units still lay in front of her like an abyss, and it was impossible to imagine a way to cross it through conventional means in a short time.
Unless there are less conventional roads.
"Why can it be done when the other party uses it?"
This time it was Shiratori Mai's turn to sigh in frustration.
Is it a user problem?
"Don't force yourself too much. I told you there is an alternative."
"Cut the world open and run through the gap? Do you really think that's okay?"
She tilted her head and asked, but was accidentally stuffed with something strange.
Crispy and soft, when you bite into it, the sweet and warm sauce will spurt out.
"Hmm... If possible, I hope that even feeding should be as gentle as possible."
After chewing a few times, she swallowed the perfectly fried croquette.
"So this is not feeding, it's blocking your mouth and it will grow."
Li Wu handed her another one, "Also, if you miss home, just say it honestly."
The street he was on now looked more and more familiar to him. While the girl was talking and he was buying croquettes, he realized that this was the hometown of Shiratori they had visited during the last summer vacation.
After traveling around the world, they finally returned here.
"It's all because when I was on the phone with Cai Zhi a few days ago, she mentioned that there was a market to be held near her home. As a result, when she was about to end her trip, this was the first place she thought of."
Shiratori Mai looked around, her hair tied into a side ponytail swaying under the inertia, flowing to her plump chest.
She finally found the lanterns hung horizontally above the street and the surrounding stalls that had not yet officially opened: "Because Li Wujun said not to push yourself too hard, come and accompany me."
"Is the frustration just now for this purpose?"
"Who do you think I am?"
The difference between the president and a certain magical girl is that she won't kick him at this time, but she will continue to apply mental attacks sadly.
"So in Li Wujun's eyes, am I such a sinister girl that even my sister would take advantage of her without hesitation?"
"Yes."
Li Wu, who has grown...or is commonly known as thick-skinned, did not hesitate.
"Then just think you were deceived by me and let's go together."
The girl raised her head and looked at the sky. A crescent moon had already emerged from the clouds. "I have something I want you to see."
"We're all here, of course it's up to the guest to do as he pleases."
"You are willing to say what you just said. Li Wujun is just as awkward as Xingchuan-san."
Shiratori Mai showed a satisfied smile and took a heavy bite on the second croquette.
When they were bickering, they almost lost their temper.
The first place to go is naturally her home.
Although tomorrow is a day off, Shiratori's parents are still surprised that their daughter, who is thousands of miles away, suddenly returns home.
Especially when alone with a boy.
She explained this because she heard her sister mention that there was a market recently, so she found a friend who happened to be free to come back and play together.
Caizhi, who had met her last time, didn't think too much and hugged her sister very happily.
"Long time no see, Sister White Bird."
Li Wu came around from behind Shiratori Mayi and said hello to her, directly reading the words on the other person's head to save trouble.
"Caiori has a name!"
It seems that she still remembers her eldest brother who came home last time. Now he is holding Zhen Yi's waist and looking out through the gap in the door. "Where are the other sisters? Where is Guang sister?"
"They didn't come today."
Shiratori Mai closed the door completely, "Isn't it satisfying to have your sister back?"
"I'm thinking about my sister."
Shiratori Ayori let go of her hand and touched her chin like a mature adult, "There were girls in the class who ignored me because they didn't practice in groups with her in physical education class. If they knew that their elder sister and eldest brother had left behind If you come home to play alone, you might get angry..."
Her voice became smaller and smaller, and finally she did not dare to speak anymore under her sister's gaze.
"They won't be angry."
Shiratori Mai looked to the side with a smile, "Isn't that right, Li Wujun?"
"That's right, listen to Sister Shiratori, only you primary school students will ignore you and ignore her because of this little thing."
Even if the big sisters of high school students get angry, they can only stab him a few times. Where can you find such a gentle girl in the world!
After dinner, the Shiratori sisters went upstairs, and when they appeared again, they had already put on different yukatas.
"It's more like going to the market this way."
The overall tone of my sister's side is light red. The yukata is dotted with irises of different sizes, and the belt is a darker vermilion, which looks quite eye-catching.
She kept her hair tied in a side ponytail and tied the ends with a hair tie.
The younger sister was wearing a model suitable for primary school students and was walking in front with wooden clogs.
The parents at home will also go there later, and now the time is temporarily left to the young people who go out first.
"It's a pity that there are no clothes suitable for Li Wujun. Dad's is a bit too big."
The shopping street is noisier than the dividing line between morning and dusk. The hanging light bulbs light up red, and the aroma of various snacks wafts to attract people's greed.
Shiratori Mayi looked at Li Wu's clothes with dissatisfaction.
"No one would have thought that we would be visiting the market at night."
The schedule of these two days has been racing forward with the collision of various things from the beginning. First, Aoi Hoshikawa took over the power of magical girl fusion, and then what happened at Airisa's house. As a result, now they are at the southern border. Relax at the market in a small town.
Looking at the peaceful and lively scene around him and Shiratori Ayaori who was taking the third skewer of meat, he almost thought that everything that had happened before, the war that would break out in the future and the world on the edge of the cliff were all illusions.
"In that case, how about we go back now and you change into your bathrobe before coming back?"
"Then there's no point in going all the way here?"
"That's right."
The clogs fell to the ground, making a crisp sound that broke the silence.
"Caiori, don't eat too much."
The girl who suddenly started to ignore him took a few steps forward, took out a tissue and wiped the sauce from the corner of her sister's mouth.
“But if you can’t eat it, it’s a waste.”
Shiratori Ayaori held a lot of snacks in distress, broke the meat bun in half after taking a small bite, and handed one half to her, "Sister, help me eat?"
"I'm not hungry at all. It's all because Cai Zhi didn't eat dinner properly."
Shiratori Mai pushed up her glasses, took them and gave them to the idiot who followed him and refused her proposal.
"Eat it."
"I'm not the janitor responsible for disposing of food remains...although it was quite delicious."
Shiratori Caori looked at him and then at her sister: "Brother, didn't you have a good dinner too?"
"No, Sister Caizhi, your sister's behavior just now can be called forced tax assessment."
"You seem to be very reluctant, Li Wujun."
Shiratori Mai pushed over an extra piece of pastry and said, "This is a forced tax apportionment."
"If possible, I would like to be fed as gently as possible."
"So this is just blocking your mouth, Vice President."
She threw back exactly what he had said.
He's too vindictive.
This vice president is still a temporary appointment during the sports festival, and it seems that she has no intention of taking it back.
Shiratori Ayaori said with a look of realization: "I know, because my brother is the vice-president and my sister is the president, I have to obey her orders. It's so pitiful."
"Well...that's pretty much it."
Looking at the innocent-looking primary school student, Li Wu felt that his soul was healed.
"It's just as pitiful as the boy in the video who yells "sir" to a girl while she's sitting on him."
"No! What on earth is your sister watching?!"
Shiratori Mai, who was also shocked by the other party's speech, had a gloomy look on her face, while Ayaori ran toward the crowd like a little beast whose survival instinct was working.
"Don't run away! I want to discuss your education issues with my parents!"
After a chase, it became a situation where the two of them were holding her hands, one on the left and the other on the right, to watch this guy.
"There are so many people, what should you do if you get lost?"
Along the way, Shiratori Mai kept lecturing Ayori-san about her behavior just now.
"My sister who hasn't been back for so long is actually more likely to get lost than me."
Shiratori Caizhi shook their arms back and forth and looked at Li Wu, "So brother, you have to keep an eye on her, otherwise the two of us will have to look for my sister everywhere."
"To put it this way, it's easier for me to get lost because I've only been here once."
Li Wu tapped her little head with his free hand.
"No, because sister is always watching you."
"Cai Zhi, there is a goldfish fishing stall over there, do you want to play?"
Shiratori Mai turned her head, as if she was concentrating on looking for entertainment.
But her earlobes were stained with a red glow under the moonlight.
After sending their sister to catch goldfish, they stood aside as spectators.
"Do you feel a little more relaxed?"
She pulled up her hair and moved closer.
Li Wu asked back: "Isn't it you who should relax?"
Otherwise, this impromptu trip would not have happened.
"When Li Wujun told me not to force myself, did you ever think that you were the one who wanted to fight Lilith head-on?"
Shiratori Makoto lowered his gaze, "I think our recent life has been a little too extraordinary, and we need some daily activities to balance it."
It's true, but this style of expressing herself in a roundabout way despite being considerate is really in line with her personality.
"Well, I feel more relaxed than just a little bit. Ayori is very cute."
"Only Ayaori?"
"Your yukata looks great too."
"It's too late to say this now, I'm angry."
She glanced at him sideways, "Are you comfortable with Airisa?"
The noisy market suddenly fell silent as if entering a soundproof room.
"……ah?"
Shiratori Mayi clicked her tongue.
"I thought that by suddenly deceiving Li Wujun like this, I could find out what you did in the afternoon."
"If you really want to know, I can tell Zhenyi."
After hearing the question she suddenly asked, Li Wu's first reaction was that this person used his ability to peek. This was actually what shocked him.
Now that he has decided something, even though he originally made an appointment with Airisa not to mention it for the time being, he is also ready to be honest.
The beautiful girl under the moonlight looked at him for a while and then curled her lips.
"Forget it, I don't want to know."
