Kimama ni Tokyo Survive

71. I did not wake up to horticulture

Shortly after the dawn of the sun, there was a strange sight in the rotary in front of the station.

It's cracked sidewalks everywhere, tarry black liquids washing away with mops.

There are only signs of something happening last night, but commuters think so because the work is lax.

- I thought it was again.

It was the end of the world that a monster appeared. I'd rather think about today's meeting... and lose interest sooner.

Whether it's a strange sight or not, if it happens every day, you can call it everyday anymore. Even so, there are many other things to be concerned about today's dedication, TV shows, and the launch of new magazines.

People hardly changed their lives while feeling more and more unstable. Because there's a company, there's a life.

Perhaps this sight is much more frightening than a monster.

There is a modern society that approaches extinction but does not change the basis of life at all. If you think about it, you might wonder if Goto and others reacted the same way to global warming.

However, there was another strange sight in front of such a station in Tokyo. It's a police officer trying to carry a motorcycle.

Even though there are still signs of destruction, is it necessary to remove the abandoned bike now? A suspicious bicycle with colouring that the militia might be riding on.

It's called the media shooting everywhere, and today's commuters seem to have twisted their necks uniformly.

At the same time, a light will illuminate the dim hallway to let you know how many floors the elevator has.

After a while, when I got to this number of floors, two men in suits appeared, echoing electronically.

A skinny man with a sleepy face, a thin tree, opens his mouth with his glasses flat.

"Why am I carrying dirt at such a time?"

The man next to him looks at the thin tree in that ungrateful voice. He sighed and said, "Plenty of 20 liters of flower and vegetable culture! I was holding a bag that said,"

Symmetrically fit, the man next door exhales like he gave up.

"You're the only one of us who does gardening. I can do gardening at work, so why don't you be a little happy?"

At 7: 00 in the morning? With a complaining face, Thin Wood walks out the hallway holding the bag back.

Why do you do gardening at work in the first place? I only got the explanation "Bring it if there is dirt" in the phone mouth, and I don't understand what that means for Thin Wood.

"Nishioka-san... this is the order if you think you can finally go home. You'd have looked worse if it weren't for me."

Nishioka chases after him as he grabs a horticultural scoop and bowl. With that look, she said, "Will you make me look any worse?"

In fact, I can see that my subordinate, Ashiki, complains.

The way they worked as public servants changed dramatically after the monsters started making noise in the Kanto area.

Needless to say, the night of monster activity is the peak of work. However, during the day, evacuation guidance and staffing for the evening, as well as the task of compiling the report when it is finished, must be completed before the series of tasks must be compiled and the next monster must be dealt with.

Although it is a three-shift system and a shift of "24-hour combat", the toughness for the person in charge of the scene is difficult to exhaust. Moreover, the emerging regions are expanding day by day, and we need to create a system that can deal with each region.

"I've been thinking about it for a long time, but Nishioka-san seems a little sweet to Goto. I think you look like a pretty girl."

It is said to be the end of the whisper, and they are still buying the grudge that caused the beating. Fu, Nishioka deepened her smile.

"Sorry, I couldn't explain anything until I got here. Listen carefully, Thin Wood. That horticultural soil is a matter of state secrecy."

"... what?

"The earth rises," he said, taking off his glasses even more. "Looking at the bag flashy written on it again, he once again made such an idiotic voice.

What a joke it would be to look at a bag of hundreds of yen of dirt. If you're convinced by what I'm saying, you're definitely crazy.

"Follow me, Thin Wood. I'll show you something interesting."

So confidently said, the twinkling and thin tree blinked his eyes.

§

Kuahh, I missed it with my eyes open.

Sleepy. Sleepy. Because I'm a complete night-shaped person, and I've been living my life for about two months as a girl who sleeps when the sun rises.

"Who's a girl? If there's a guy with a face, I'll pinch his cheeks until he bleeds.

It's usually time for me to go to bed, but I'll do my best today. For my beloved Earth.

"Senpai, aren't you just looking forward to staying?

"Hmm, I'm looking forward to it, Ryokan. Quickly finish your work and enjoy your bath before sleeping in the futon."

I have so much nostalgia that I can hug the rain dragon from the front. I'm going to the inn now.

Wearing yukata, walking around, eating seasonal rice, watching nasty daytime shows, and then sleeping well. That's the public expense. I mean, it's free.

"Ahhh, I can't stand it!

Goto-san, please use this place for today.

Looking into the laptop with the rain dragon. What was reflected there was a spacious hotel, and it seemed kind of expensive.

Marble-like sparkling floors and fairly spacious western rooms. I have a slightly older impression, but of course I think it's much bigger than my room.

Until now, you said it was free, but seeing this kind of high upholstery makes me feel a little bit uncomfortable. After all, I'm a commoner, so I'd like to say, "It's cheaper."

"... it looks expensive, but are you okay? If you can't get an appointment, you can go home."

"Yeah, don't worry about that. Rather, it's only convenient here. Goto-san's life is to go out in the evening and come back in the morning, and check-in is usually from the afternoon."

Sure. I can't watch a golden show because I'm exterminating monsters, and I can't enjoy dinner.

But why is it convenient here? Someone you know runs it?

"Well, I'll explain that later. What about Rain Dragon? Do you want to stay with Mr. Goto?

I'm staying.

When I lifted my eyes from the laptop I was peeking into, there was no time lag for a second and Spa and Rainbow replied.

As always, I don't mind the shards, but this one has a slightly different thought circuit, and I don't care what Wakabayashi and I think. I think I only have the criteria to decide whether or not I want to stay.

Of course, the familiar young forest doesn't have a strange face.

Well then, it's a suite. I'll contact the hotel and get my luggage... ah, Nishioka-san "

It was Nishioka-san in unusual personal clothes and thin wooden hair who opened the door and showed up.

You still look fine, Goto.

"Well, it looks sturdy. But I don't know if I want to go to bed soon."

I was laughed at for agreeing.

Thinking about it, it was happening all the time over there, and obviously, unlike me, it wasn't physically strengthened. I think it's tougher than this one.

This room is a room in a research facility, usually a place to spend a meeting or something. There was also a coffee maker that was equipped, and Mr. Thingi looked strangely at everyone relaxing.

"So, Goto-kun, what does it mean to bring dirt?

"Ahhh, thank you! I'm glad you didn't open the home center at this hour. I went all the way to the bowl. Let's bury him and go to the hotel."

As a matter of course, the rain dragon and the young forest take their seats. And even if it gets dirty with dirt, he starts imitating gardening at once on the table.

What are you doing? And you'll look suspicious. I mean, even though it's early in the morning on a weekday, there are five big adults doing gardening together. If I don't know what's going on, I'll look confused too.

"Um, laying light stones on the bottom. What do you use that white granular thing for?

"Ah? Well, this is for root-rot prevention, so I'll use it after planting..."

While explaining so politely, he stared at the root plant.

I might have thought it was strange. The leaves are black, plus the trees. It seems that Mr. Thingi is familiar with horticulture and would be even more surprised.

"I wonder if I've ever seen a tree like this before...."

"Yeah, because this is egia. Ah, ah, the dirt is spilling! Ayagi-san, no more dirt!

Perhaps the Queen of Egia was pleased with the nourishing culture. The sea urchins and the leaves waved and stroked his fingertips to thank him.

"Hah, hahhh!?

"Thin wood, I told you it was a state secret. Don't look so surprised."

"I will!? When will I be surprised if I don't!?

I grabbed Scoop in the air and stared at Mr. Thingi with such a backward voice.

I wonder why. It's only a little interesting to surprise someone who always feels calm.

"It's also a queen species."

"Queen seed!?

Ufuu, I turned my back on Mr. Ashigi with my mouth pressed against the woods. That's right, you're about to blow it out. Good, I'm not the only one.

Drink water and plug the sunlight into the potted plant placed by the window. Although it was winter on the calendar, Egiana was spreading her leaves in a pleasant way due to the effects of warming.

I think I'm in a good mood when I look at it. Maybe he had a heart mark on his head.

So, let's leave the rest to the research team and Nishioka-san. I'm sleepy now.

When I went out while stretching out, I saw people in suits who came to work at a glance. Though I think you're tired, I won't complain because maybe I was more of a hard worker.

"Hey, Rain Dragon, don't walk and sleep.

…………

The rain dragon that is starting to envy me is an unforgettable expression, and as a member of society, I can't stand it anymore. Nevertheless, more than half of them are skipping out these days, so don't feel like you're not that different from me anymore.

I don't know if I'm unconscious, but I keep staring at the dragon grabbing my sleeve.

"No, he was manipulating monsters. Wakabayashi, do you hear something?

Asked the young forest walking side by side, he leaned his neck and said, "Come on." I think this guy used to feel more serious and neurotic, but isn't he getting more and more appropriate?

"You've woken up to a new skill. As long as I've seen it and listened to it, it feels closer to the commands (commands) in the game than to all the manipulations like a radio."

"Eh, do you play games too? I don't even think I'm going to pay for my smartphone games."

"I was at my friend's house when I was in elementary school about a game. That's right, I don't charge you."

Well, I didn't charge you either.

Whatever you hate, it's cold to be suddenly taken out of money. It doesn't matter if you have a favorite speculative character. No matter how beautiful a boy he is, no matter how handsome he is, he is as good as a beast when the money gets tangled up.

"It's not an order (command) expression. Then will you move on an ad hoc basis to some extent? Then there are fewer accidents, but is it still dangerous?

"That's right. If there is damage, you will be forbidden to use it at that time. But we can do something about it. If you tell Goto-san that you are manipulating it or instructing it."

Oh, I see.

The information on the appearance of monsters every morning is already so important that I have defeated a small amount of monsters every day. To be precise, there is a faction that has me as its master.

When you get here, you'll have the option to "close your eyes somewhat".

That presupposes "judgment in good faith". But it looks like I'm serious on the surface. In the back, even if there's a lot of turtles with magic stones.

Those people you've never met in person will think of me as a woman of justice. You will know that your parents are police officials, and that will certainly work for you.

Well, that's how it looks.

If I had to negotiate directly with someone with a reputation for roughness, I'd be in trouble right away. Nishioka-san and Wakabayashi are the intermediaries for this, and they are trusted to some extent.

Well then, please do it in that direction. So, where are you going? You're not walking to a hotel, are you?

I noticed that I was walking in a different direction from the parking lot earlier, and I called out. Young Forest then turned his fingertips outside the site with a smile.

"Yeah, it's right there."

Turning to the other side of Kuru, there was a large hotel called the "Military Hall".

I see. That's why you're a little accommodating. Apparently, there's a discount for the OB guys.

When I heard it was a luxury hotel, I found it suddenly getting cold.
