It seems that the situation has changed a little.

Xia Ran suddenly couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly, and subconsciously wondered if Yui really went back, or did she say so on purpose?

As for the reason, it's actually very understandable, probably because I don't want her and Hikiya Hachiman's two-person world to be disturbed? If that's the case, then he's going to be impressed with this girl.

Obviously, she was so shy and embarrassed before, and even said that she wanted to help her create opportunities, but she was angry and anxious, as if a cat had been stepped on its tail...... As a result, when it comes to the actual operation, she doesn't need others to help her create opportunities at all, she goes directly to it herself?

"It's a little troublesome, and the two of them are ...... by Hihama-san It's like there's a conflict without us knowing. ”

While Xia Ran was thinking nonsense, Xue Xia also ended the call, she lowered her arms and said with a frown.

"Huh? What does it mean to have a conflict? ”

"It's literal, I don't know what misunderstanding happened between her and Biqigu." The girl sighed, her voice still cold, "Anyway, I heard her tone seem to be sad, it is said that Bikiya-san, too, has gone back, and the two of them seem to be unhappy......"

“……”

“……”

So, what the hell is going on?

Isn't it a normal club activity today? What about the book club? Why is there such a twist and turn?! Is it because I didn't look at the yellow calendar when I went out today?

Xia Ran didn't know what to say, and he even began to doubt that if he went to look at the traditional calendar at this time, then today's Yiji on it must have been written like this-

"It is advisable to move, enter the house, pray for blessings, dismiss, and hunt down my sister"

"Don't travel, start work, trade, sacrifice, and date with two people"

It's a pity that he didn't allocate points to the prophecy system, nor did he master the systematic means of divination. Otherwise, at least you can do some preparation or something in advance.

The two of them stared at each other like this, and after a long while, Xia Ran said helplessly: "Then what should we do?" There's no need for this book club to continue, right? ”

The so-called reading club was originally a club activity for Yui Hihama.,But now even the main owner doesn't seem to know what the blow has been.,Just quit before it started......

So, if there are only the two of them left, is it necessary for this reading club to continue?

Xia Ran and Xue Xia are two people, one is the first in the grade, the other is the second in the grade, the other is the hanging wall with points, and the other is a real genius...... There is no need to improve their grades through tutoring, which is a waste of time for them.

After all, normal learning can reach 100% of the progress bar, so after passing extracurricular tutoring, the completion of the progress bar is also 100%, anyway, the upper limit will not change dynamically......

"I don't know, what do you think......"

Under the snow, he rubbed his eyebrows with a headache, looked distressed, and then shook his head weakly, probably thinking that today seemed to be particularly unsmooth.

- It's as if someone cursed it, and nothing good happens from beginning to end...... Well, maybe except for the guy in front of him, he easily got the contact information of two strange girls, isn't it a good thing?

Thinking of this, Xue Xia stared at him with displeasure.

Xia Ran didn't know what the girl suddenly thought, and she didn't feel that she was suddenly stared at like this for other reasons, but she still felt that this was normal, if it wasn't cold under the snow, was it still under the snow?

So he just held his chin and pondered, feeling that this was really not the right time to continue, whether it was a book club or some other activity.

And not to mention the question of whether it is embarrassing or not, now that there is such a thing, the girl in front of him must not be in that mood, and he himself can't let go of the discovery of the basement space in that shopping mall just now......

Of course, this is the most rational consideration, and sometimes people should not be so rational, which will give people a sense of indifference and indifference.

"Then ...... Let's find a place to sit down first, and as we had planned, we won't have to worry about anything else for the time being. ”

After thinking about it quickly, Xia Ran said calmly.

"Or you can ask Yubihama-san what happened, to be honest, it's hard for me to imagine that she would have a conflict with others, but if it's Hikiya, I can't tell whose cause is."

"You have a point."

Xue Xia nodded in agreement, only on this matter, she and Xia Ran had a surprisingly consistent opinion.

Because Yui Yui Yuira is such a person, she always sees other people as more important than herself, has a gentle and kind personality, and is good at observing other people's faces, but because of this, she often can't express her thoughts frankly. It seems to be a natural stay, but in fact, he often hides his thoughts deeply, and the natural stay is to some extent in order to integrate into the coat put on by the current group.

It is precisely because she is very good at catering to others, very aware of the complexity of interpersonal relationships, in order to protect herself and maintain the corresponding friendship, she unconsciously looks at the faces of others...... Therefore, it is hard to imagine that this girl will take the initiative to have conflicts with others.

If it really happened, then there is no doubt that the source is definitely because of the person opposite!

It was supposed to be like this, but this time the target was Hikiya Hachiman, which made it feel like there was a paradox in this law...... After all, the rotten dead fish eye of Hachiman doesn't want to take the initiative to contact the outside world at all.

Is it really possible for a guy who often isolates himself to take the initiative to provoke others?

"Then you can call and ask Biqigu-san, and see what happened."

Xue Xia thought silently for a while, and did not raise any objections to Xia Ran's suggestion, but sighed lightly and said again, planning to divide the labor between the two and find out what was going on as quickly as possible.

"Well, forget it...... I don't have the contact information of Bikiya-san. Xia Ran thought about it and confidently rejected such an offer.

"You don't have his contact details? Are you still friends? It felt as if she had heard something incredible, and the girl looked at him with astonishment.

"Hey, I'm already friends with Biqigu?" The boy seemed to be more shocked by this statement than she was.

“……”

“……”

……

……

Five minutes later.

Because this time there is no need to think about the problems that the other two companions are going to find, so in line with the basic principle of staying away from Yukino's sister Yukishita Yono, the two of them stayed away from the shopping mall.

didn't go back to the previous McDonald's, but found an ordinary cafeteria at random, ready to sit down to eat something to spend the morning-

I didn't eat anything at McDonald's before, and I didn't have time to take two sips of my drink, so I had to retreat in a hurry because of the elite monsters.

- And find out what happened to Hachiman Hikiya and Yui Yui.

"Xia Ran, wait a minute......"

"Well, what's wrong?"

Xia Ran found that there was a drink machine standing in front of the drink machine under the snow, and his eyes looked at or examined the machine seriously, but fortunately the machine was a machine after all, otherwise, he would probably tremble in the sharp eyes of Miss Under the snow.

And she herself is holding a brand new plastic cup in her right hand, and her left hand is holding it tightly for some reason.

"Well, under the snow, did you call me just now?" Xia Ran was a little unsure.

"I want to ask...... This machine, where are the coins going to be thrown in? The snow didn't look at him, but still looked at the drink machine with scrutinizing eyes, and whispered.

“…… Are you kidding? Xia Ran suspected that she had misheard.

What a high-class family she came from! Could it be that as long as the food and drinks are prepared and delivered to the customers like McDonald's in the past, it is a self-service service provided by ordinary restaurants......

She didn't know what to do? Could it be that I really haven't seen it before, and it is only because of the nature of this activity that is close to the meeting of friends that I came out to contact such a civilian...... Thing?

"What are you laughing about?" The girl turned to look at him, her delicate and good-looking brows furrowed.

"I'll come......" Xia Ran stretched out her hand, wanting to take the cup in her hand, it seemed that the eldest lady under the snow had really never been exposed to such a civilian thing.

Looking at his outstretched palm, he hesitated for a moment, put his clenched fist up under the snow, stretched it out gently, and a coin with the girl's slight body temperature fell into Xia Ran's palm.

“……”

“……”

Xia Ran looked at the 500 yen coin in his palm, and then clenched it expressionlessly, and when he opened it again, the coin had disappeared, as if by magic-

"Not this, I mean the cup."

Xue Xia glanced at his palm with a little curiosity, but didn't ask where the coin went, but handed the quilt in his other hand.

Then, she watched Xia Ran press the button, fill the cup directly with a hot drink, and said softly: "I see, it's ......" It's just a cold sweat, this is no longer natural.

After filling up the drinks they were going to drink, the two returned to their seats.

Pondering under the snow, he lowered his head and edited the email on his phone, intending to send it to Yui Yuhihama. She had seriously thought about it, and Yubihama-san seemed to be sad just now, and was just forcing a smile to talk to her.

If you call again, it is not too appropriate, and the text communication is more convenient, you can speak in more detail, and you can also repeatedly consider and revise when editing, leaving a lot of leeway for both parties.

As for Xia Ran, he didn't do anything, just lowered his head and seemed to be playing with his mobile phone...... It's not that he doesn't really care about anything, but he searches the Internet for various supernatural and mysterious events about Chiba, focusing on the shopping mall just now.

In such a developed information age, many things cannot be hidden, especially if there are serious problems that occur frequently......

But it turned out that nothing happened, and the mall seemed to be very normal, and nothing strange should have happened before...... In this case, there are not many explanations that Xia Ran can come up with.

Either that thing is constantly shifting, and it has just arrived at the mall in the past few days...... Either that thing is really harmless to humans and animals, and it has never been done to ordinary people at all, but it is only the approach of such an equally unscientific person as him that it caused the stress reaction of that thing......

Maybe you can let the dog go over and see it now?

After all, the distance is also very close, nothing more than a few streets away, so it is not necessary to let it take the tram alone tonight to investigate the situation...... And at too far apart, the chain of the mind can't be stretched so long.

At that time, there will be no way to directly manipulate the actions of the demon pet, it can only rely on the pre-set program and a certain amount of wisdom given to it, let it act alone, and if it can come back safely afterwards, Xia Ran will be able to know what happened.

Just do it, and glanced at the frowning snow on the other side, the air next to Xia Ran was very obscure, and it seemed that something completely transparent appeared directly, and then ran out of the store with a puff of smoke.

Even if you stare directly, it will take a while for the average person to be able to see some outlines, so this is completely similar to stealth. Although this kind of stealth is tricky, it is enough for ordinary people not to see it.

Anyway, it wasn't until today that he confirmed that there were indeed some mysterious and peculiar elements in his world, but it was impossible to say that he would encounter transcendents or anything at once...... Xia Ran thought so.

"Huh? Whose Shikigami is this? ”

The voice of surprise came through the pet's hearing, from the chain of the mind.

In an instant, Xia Ran froze at the same time with the summoned dogs...... What the heck? I didn't say it myself.,Is this also a flga?

Under Xia Ran's subconscious manipulation, the latter turned his head to look and found that a girl with long green hair, with snake and frog hair ornaments, hair wrapped in a strand of white snake on the left side, and a frog-style hairpin at the root of the hair.

And she was wearing what was supposed to be a shrine maiden costume, with a white upper body and a blue skirt on the lower body.

As if to capture a subtle and mysterious connection in an instant, the girl turned her head in surprise and looked directly into the restaurant next to her, and her eyes immediately met someone......
