I finished my tea and said, "Let's get to work! ♪ And somehow cursed to follow the tense Yuki's back, back from the kitchen to the store ♪

Sputnik noticed 'it' when he stepped into the store.

……

Full of store, uncomfortable.

One, two steps. Walk slowly away from the door and stand beside the counter.

What reaches your ears is the sound of a clock cocktail and a little bit of the blurring that arrives from the outside. What's in the store are supplies, cashiers, display shelves, and reception space. Sunlight plugging through the window. Stuffed animal with a stuffed face. I look around, but nothing has changed since before. But.

Signs I feel from somewhere. Slightly weak to say killer, gaze.

Something's definitely looking at this one.

From where?

"What's going on?

Unexpectedly, I heard a voice behind my back. I was surprised only for a moment, but soon I can see that she is not the lord of strange gaze. Also, without Sputnik having to look back and talk about the situation, Yuki behind it seems to have guessed what Sputnik cares about.

"Hung."

He seemed to laugh with his nose.

Ever since Sputnik turned to the simple kitchen on the back, there has been no sound of the front door opening. There was no way the window was opened, and the door leading to the back was open in the first place, so if there was a shadow trying to break in, you'd notice.

But I'm somewhere. Are you spying on this one from the outside?

"Where are you?

"I don't know"

Ask, but unexpectedly emptied. Don't think I know everything, and I don't know if I'm serious or lying.

Then this is also a futile question - don't expect me to ask.

"What do we do?

But there was an answer here. "You can leave it to me," he replied.

Again, I'm going to slap your ears.... nothing like earlier, no different. Sputnik doesn't even know where he is.

But Yuki knew what it was, and her answer seeped confidence. So,

"I asked."

And Sputnik replied. but.

- I thought I had the wrong answer, just after.

"It hurts -!?"

It was because he grabbed the back of his hair with a very strong force.

Keep it up, I can slap your head on the counter. The counter never broke, but that much pain and regret for leaving it to her attacked Sputnik. I look up at Yuki - screaming as I'm about to lose my temper of war in the cold eyes looking down at this one.

"What are you going to do with me?

but Yuki doesn't answer. The eyes that look beyond the lens continue to be in a state of battle.

Then she took something out of her nose - something dull and glowing. I'm holding it. It's not hard to imagine what I'm going to do with it. I don't know at the moment why she brought up the murder weapon or why she's pointing it at us, but she's the type of person who will definitely do it if she decides to.

That's why this one couldn't even be left to be. Sputnik opened the drawer at hand, and when he retrieved the scratch by hand, he took the blade down.

"That's it."

Shortly before I set up to take it, I heard a voice with the doorbell. It's like even tearing air, a loud voice.

But.

"... what?

A familiar dialogue, scene and movement into a sealed status quo.

For some reason Sputnik felt a sense of vision.

"Get your hands off Mr. and back off."

Outside of sight, there is a voice that appeals for restraint. Yuki, laughing slowly at the mysterious voice, took his hands off Sputnik and raised his arms shoulder-height. surrender, posture of. Though it wouldn't be from the heart, it would just be a pose.

Anyway, when I woke up and looked back, I was there.

Thin hair with a loose wavy pigment, seems a little older than Crewe, but from Sputnik, she is still young. However, the eyes are sharply narrowed to hide its infancy. Simple cropped trousers, white cutouts, and an undecorated outfit called a long cardigan also seemed to be managing to push her age up.

"Oh man...?

It's just that Sputnik's voice became something out of between, not because of the girl's outfit or impressions. Because Sputnik already knew about her, a mysterious visitor.

No, I mean, I knew him, I've seen him before. But there is also a saying that we have met before.

Soaran, that man from the vice branch manager of the Witches Association Cokedier Branch.

Her figure bears a terrible resemblance to what Soaran the Wizard used to turn into when Sputnik was attacked by wizard women in Finetica City -

Although.

"Are you okay?"

The girl who guides Sputnik free from Yuki. But Sputnik had more to worry about than his own physical condition.

The girl in front of me, when I met her before, and something.

"... you, that's not him, is it?

Hold on to your aching head, ask. As if the contents were that perverted wizard, it did not seem to me why.

The girl then narrowed her eyes even further, creating an expression that could even be described as chilling.

but that doesn't seem to be an emotion for the human being here. Like, "I was really scared," directed at Sputnik, in a low voice.

"Was the teacher, again, using my appearance to do something?

"'Sensei'?

It's an unfamiliar name.

But the girl didn't answer that. "Let's say hello later," he says, shifting his gaze.

"Better than that, take the woman..."

"Oh, that's enough."

It was Yuki who blocked her from speaking and told her. Previously on the battlefield, he waved with his hands in a blatant manner.

'Cause I just invited you over.

"Invite, pull over...?

Girl carving wrinkles between eyebrows.

Yuki hugged the stuffed animal at the counter, smiling without looking concerned about her suspicious look. And

"Someone lurked somewhere. I didn't feel any killing or hostility from the signs, so I thought there must be something I can do for you here. But if you're a regular customer, you obviously don't act like you're hiding yourself and exploring the store. If so, I guess I need help with Sputnik, the owner of this store, and I tried to do this thinking that if something abnormal happened to him, he would show up - Dompisha. Thank you for coming out here, young lady."

"... chip"

She realized she had been fitted, and the girl's gaze became sharper and colder as she punched her tongue.

Yuki flaunts her shoulder like that.

"Honestly, I thought you were a police officer's daughter, so it's also true that I missed the guess."

"Nuts?"

"That kid, is he called a nut?... Whatever."

Speaking of which, I recall you leaving earlier with a face that said something. I don't know what you cared about - though there's no way to be sure right now.

That's all I said though, the nuts will be back in the evening, and you just have to check then. Now it's about two visitors (irregular) scattered with sparks.

Yuki puts her fingertips on her jaw and hesitates to observe the girl.

"I'd like to speak to your lovely watchman first. Why were you staring at our store?

It's not your shop.

This is the 'Sputnik' jewelry store.

I don't like the rhetoric and point it out, but I'm certainly not willing to ask my sister, such as my brother's complaint.

Yuki looked straight back at the girl who was still staring as she grinned distorted her apricot-like lips.
