Arishi shield Arumiyu was completely dark around the area when he left the alley.

The time is almost eight o'clock at night. The lights illuminating a lonely one-country shopping district are some poor minister, and thin dirty street lights are swarmed with insects that don't even know their names. Many stores already had shutters closed.

It's Friday, so I don't even have to rush my way home.

Think about taking a break and head to the bench set in front of a crumbling ice cream chain store.

Stream protection appears in the store's thin, dirty glass. Normal, it looked like it was reputed.

Black, short, undecorated hair. The face is said to be somewhat feminine and never tall. As far as I'm concerned, I always want one hundred and seventy centimeters, but a few more centimeters were in trouble without stretching them beyond my thoughts.

The outfit is for school return, both up and down, unified in black, a school run that does not have this characteristic either.

Ask about twenty people and they should say 'cool', two say 'cute', one say 'lend me your ass' and the rest say 'normal' - what is the manager of the club saying?

That's why. It's not 'normal' to have both hands covered in blood like that, but the person at the time didn't really care.

Lifeguard keeps herself on the back of the bench and looks at the waves of people going out. There are not as many people on the street.

Adults in suits passing by early enough, students walking in bickering. I'm used to seeing it - you can say I'm tired of seeing it, the sight as usual. A scene where I don't feel anything.

"Ah. Reflux protection. What are you doing?

So inadvertently, I was called from across. It was the voice of a girl I knew well.

Lifeguard answers without looking at the opponent, keeping an eye on the human wave.

"I've been thinking about Kimyra, who just keeps crashing in 'Anche'. What do you think of Ayaka? I was wondering if that was a misadjustment."

"Oh yeah. Why don't you just pull it off and step on it? If I were you, I'd go with a melee first."

The girl answered - I don't care about the colorful flowers - and sat down next to her shield.

"Anche" refers to the popular exploding four-player action game "Unchained". I thought the four of us would work together in a game against a mighty enemy...... and the crux of it was in the battle for a drop item that starts after defeating the enemy. It is a system that is likely to lose friends.

Stream protection wasn't a better game, so I don't know how many times I thought my enemies couldn't defeat me properly before the taking of the item and "let me hit this fucking monster directly already".

"Why don't we just use Gatling? You don't have to aim."

"I bumped it with a melee weapon," she sighed, finally turning her face to the colorful flowers here.

Box pleated skirt in blue blazer with an equally blue knee length. The girl, dressed in such a uniform for the same school girl, has an impressive shiny dark hair stretched out to her waist and a small, tidy and quite adorable face. - but she's like a sister we grew up with since we were kids. The boy is proud that he has no strange emotions.

"So, what are you doing? At this hour."

"... er, a little time crushed, I guess"

Colorful flowers turned away, and I couldn't seem to say where.

"Uh, wait for your boyfriend. It's Friday night. Friendly."

"... why do you say that... you, it"

A colorful flower raised her dissatisfaction and stiffened when she saw the hand of the flower shield.

"Ah? What is it? Unexpectedly bitchy and sexy in my hands...... Ah"

Lifeguard follows the gaze of colorful flowers and inadvertently leaks his voice.

I already forgot my fist was all over the blood. It has already discolored black and is about to solidify.

"It's ketchup."

"That's a lot of poor quality ketchup. I'll make a complaint.... I don't know what you're thinking about, Karate Ace's current protection is a fight."

"You can't help it because you got tangled up. Or do you want me to just keep getting hit unilaterally? What kind of saint are you? I'm going to die. The honorary Lotus Castle, Renji, Colorful Flowers, has something different to say."

"You didn't say that much. When the police are out of business..."

"No one's seen it because it's in the alley, and the guy who got hit never calls it in."

"Why can't you say it all? Whether nobody saw it or not, it's possible that the guy who got hit would report it belly-up, right?

"Hmm... even if it did, at least a few months would be fine"

"... I don't know what that means"

I crushed my throat and fingers, so I stopped saying.

"For the most part, in case something happens to drift protection..."

"Hey."

"Why can you say it all... like that"

"Hey, Mon. No. There were three of us this time, though. Even if this is 30 at the same time, I don't feel like losing."

I'm not alert, but I'm not alert. For example, this opponent.

I don't know what I wanted to do with my thin arms like a dead tree I haven't worked out to Locke in the first place, but I can't get one decent kick out of a pair of pants with my hips on and off and a pair of shoes with my heels crushed. They look like they're walking wide across the city spreading the smell of violence, and it's tantamount to saying publicly, "Actually, you can't have a fight".

That was the idea of drift protection. I seriously think I can take down even if I deal with thirty.

... Once I wore the same outfit, I could barely run. You can destroy each while dealing with a moderate escape. Definitely.

"Oh, my God, it doesn't matter. You have a boyfriend."

"If I had a boyfriend, shouldn't I worry about stray protection?

"I'm worried about you, my car chan or you. For example, if I had a girlfriend and she was worried about another guy, I'd be jealous."

"That's for drift protection, isn't it? Seniors aren't like that."

"Oh hey, what natural are you trying to get into? Just go now, wow."

Shiatsu, who shows the trick of getting rid of it by hand.

"... so why did you say that..., eh"

Colorful flowers raised their voices and took out their phones.

The ringtone didn't ring, so I guess I'm putting it in manor mode. It seemed like it was an email, and when I looked through it, I stood up in a panic.

"... then I'll go"

"Aye. Neat."

…………

Standing colorful flowers, don't try to move.

"Hmm?"

"... hey. Tomorrow, Hima?... time, can't you make it?

"Huh?"

The abrupt offer made me a little confused.

Since when did they say this, I think.

"No, you're not the one who invites me. I don't have time for this."

"... well. Okay."

The colorful flowers walked out, squealing quietly without looking at the driftshield. Long dark hair is windy.

The figure quickly dispersed into the crowd and disappeared.

"... what the heck....... ah"

In the end, what will we do tomorrow? I was upset to hear it.

Well, if you have business, even one of the calls will be made.

I decided not to think too deeply, and the drift protection took a deep sigh.

The light of the street lights that lit up the residential streets on a quiet night seemed to highlight the loneliness, partly because the moon was not out.

Walk the narrow pavement where light cars struggle even if they are different and arrive in front of a wooden detached house that is still going to crumble, listening to the howl of a dog that can be heard from somewhere.

… and at the same time, the driftshield felt a mess on the back of his shoes. It was a dog hun.

"... no..."

Decide not to look and pull open the doors of the poorly erected doors. I knew it wasn't locked. You know, I knew there was nobody there.

'... as can be seen from the above, even now, fourteen years after his disappearance, Professor Iwawa's theory is supported, isn't it? In other words……'

The TV in the messy living room is left on, and the lights are on. The windows are also fully open. As usual, when I think about it, it's a big deal in this noisy time. No, it looks more like there are people out there, and you might expect a high security effect.

Turn off the TV that drools over what you don't really know 'what to do with neutrino' and sit back on the couch somewhere. At a time like that was the signal, there was a sound of opening the front door. followed by ringing, dodgy, carefree footsteps.

"Oh, you're home or you're home."

A stern face, but a sloppily stretched, inert beard. Boneless and large physique, the opposite of drift protection. Military trousers with a white t-shirt on the top and a camouflage pattern on the bottom. A man, who wondered what special forces would be if he encountered them in the woods, came into the living room in grand footsteps.

"Early. Turn off the TV, Dad."

"Oh, I forgot.... than that, you..."

A rare and serious tone. Is it also a serious story - it was an exodus I think.

"You're fucking stepping on a dog."

"You left this father behind because you knew he was falling..."

"No, I was wondering if you'd clean up..."

"Why did you think that?"

"Then next time the first person to step on it decides to clean it up. This is homework."

"I'm going to paint it all over my dad's shoes..."

After all, it was the usual conversation.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. What's up, Colorful Flower?

"What?

"We would have been together a while ago. Didn't you promise to marry me?

"When are we talking? I'm not too busy... with everything."

"Hmm. Just bring him in once in a while. I don't care about your situation, I'll take a look. Colorful flowers are already fifteen, right? Come on, sweetie..."

"In this day and age, it's a crime to say that to fifteen people."

"If I were fifteen, I'd be an adult. Good. Japan is so sweet right now... you think I'll have a drink? It's summer now, here's a cold beer... is that it?

This is again my father, who opened the fridge to have dinner as usual, leaning his neck as he colored Gossogoso.

"Holy shit, were you hanging up Edamame Chan..."

I drew a parabola and a coin pocket flew to the drift shelter that was sinking into the couch a long time ago.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Liquid protection sighs and stands up reluctantly, but nothing like this was usual.

The dog hun was gone.

What was it that you were cleaning up? But from the next time, when the person who stepped on it cleaned it up, it was laid down in home training, so I can't be alarmed.... Is that it? Then what if no one stepped on it?

Stream protection walks the road at night while seriously thinking about being an asshole for what it is.

The lonely residential neighborhood, albeit a weekend night, was quiet and unrelated to the hustle and bustle on the part of the shopping district.

It's almost summer, so it's getting a little hot at night when it's a learning run. Since when do you change clothes? He unconsciously proceeded to lazily walk, thinking, among other things.

Soon we arrive at the convenience store, put the requested edamame chan in the basket, and then head to the magazine corner to check out the weekly comics.

"Ah."

"Ah."

I ran into colorful flowers that reached out to fashion magazines.

She remained in uniform. She was also in uniform.

"Is that a buyout?... Is your boyfriend's house near here?"

"Sticky."

No, "sticky" isn't right for the question right now.

Though I thought, it was also a hassle to penetrate, so the boy listened - though.

(... No, seriously, is boyfriend's house such a neighborhood?

This convenience store is also the neighborhood of the House of Refuge and the House of Colorful Flowers. I've known this neighborhood well for a long time. I didn't know you lived in a neighborhood like this.

"-Ah. Really. Is your boyfriend coming home better?"

"Huh? Why?

"No, look, this is no place near your house."

…… I've been here, as... What does that have to do with drift protection?

"No, nothing. I thought you were going to your boyfriend's house on your own. Does that mean my uncle and aunt approve... or are you admitted to being with me on Friday night... do it nah hey"

…………

For some reason, the colorful flowers pressed silence. The faint face looks angry for some reason, and the drift shield changes the story to take care of it.

"Ah. No, my father said," What's wrong with colorful flowers lately? "I can't see your face anymore. Look how lonely you are.

"Oh, yeah......"

"That's right. What's tomorrow? What are we gonna do?

"Uh... what do you want to do?

"What the hell do you want to do... well, I've been tending to skip archery lately, and don't even think about training"

"Oh well."

To put it that way, Colorful Flowers went straight to the cashier and left the store after completing the liquidation.

"... what the heck is he"

I don't know. Recently, in particular.

Put the magazine that Lifeguard also subscribes to in the basket and head to the cashier.

On my way home I decided to take a walk at night and go home on a different path than when I came.

Arihai Current Protection and Lotus Castle Colorful Flowers are childhood friends.

We used to play together all the time when we were kids, but as we went up with middle school, high school, our chances of being together decreased. When was the last time you two played together? I also remember the two of us doing 'Anche' recently for 10%, but I couldn't remember one now.

It was this spring that I had a boyfriend in such colorful flowers.

Now that we are both freshmen in high school, it will be as soon as we get into high school.

My boyfriend meant with one older senior. It was reported that way by Colorflower himself a few months ago, but he didn't really know what kind of person Colorflower's boyfriend was because he had appropriately listened to it. I've never even seen it. I remember only there because the colorful flowers started to rage when I listened to them. I wasn't sure why I was angry.

Originally, colorful flowers have been popular since middle school.

There was no such floating story on one side of drift protection, just punching even into the karate of the ministry activity.

Karate itself has been going to the dojo since childhood, and I was proud of my skill there - but semi-winner in the individual provincial tournament, which I took part in shortly after high school. I've lost without a hand or a leg, and I tend to get out of training for a while from there.

Frustrated, can it be said? There was a great loss of motivation. I don't have a goal and I'm in a hanging state.

I'm not going to beat that monster. I don't know if I can win after practice. Then I don't know what to do.

So lately, he led his opponent into the alley just because he was tangled up in a few bad galas, and things rarely happened like in the evening.

I know it's just a weak bully. It's over there that I've been putting on a claim, and this one just made a heartfelt excuse to protect myself.

As Caihua put it, it wasn't weird whenever it developed into a police shack.

Colorful Flowers aims to get a culinary job in the future. My boyfriend said he was someone with the same goal. I was listening, but that's all I remember.

That childhood girl has always been. Good honors students with solid goals and procedures to do anything. That's the rating from around.

I've never thought about the future. It's not like I can study. Even karate, the only stunt, is now empty.

"... damn"

When I was thinking about that, I remembered to be a little irritated.

Look up into the dark night sky and take a deep breath. And walk out again.

Thus, it was different from the T-shaped path.

Low house compartment. What is the proportion of grassy vacant land surrounded by concrete walls and knee-length?

At the end of the bend, turn your face somehow. Not a hundred meters at a distance. You can still see it from here, a house no different from the house of the Refuge...... the Lotus Castle family. Colorful flower house.

Speaking of which, I haven't seen your face lately, how's your uncle or aunt doing? Consider that

".................. ah"

That's where I remembered. Tomorrow.

Tomorrow is the summer festival in town. Every year, I go with colorful flowers.

We met here last year, and we were on our way together. I remember feeling lost when I did it in my yukata and thought my cutie would come this way, it was a colorful flower.

"So tomorrow, you asked me if I was free..."

I recall not being able to go around the stall much last year and promising to go around properly next time, etc.

Then you just have to say that clearly. I mean, I've been going with my boyfriend since this year.

I thought so, but maybe there's something going on and we can't go together.

"Shit..."

Take out your phone as you tongue, and hit the text of your email.

'Well, is it tomorrow's festival? You want to come with me?

I was a little tempted to contact where I might be with my boyfriend, but for one second I sent it... I thought I did, and the radio waves were out of range. You're not out of range in the open place, this is why I think the countryside - and I look up a little frustrated.

- As far as I could see, the meadow was spreading.
