230 Mei Raiden and the Railgun

He obviously planned to find Alicia to confirm her job, and test her identity again.But when the meeting was over, Lin Qiuyue only knew that she had inexplicably added a cosplay task in the manga—besides, is this Alicia the Alicia? There will be a series of questions at this time, Lin Qiuyue does not know.

But I always feel that with this attitude and tone, she is Alysia Ben Aili.

Back at the B&B, Mei had already taken Kiana to finish the simple tidying up.The space of this homestay is not small, with three bedrooms and one living room together, there is a space of nearly [-] square meters.The three rooms are divided into two bedrooms and a study.However, judging from the computers and game consoles arranged in the study room, it is obvious that this place is more for guests to have fun.

"Thank you." Mei has already mastered the corners of the kitchen: "How is the work?"

"Well, although there have been some twists and turns, it's okay overall." Lin Qiuyue took off her shoes, with a slightly weird expression: "That... is really a guy with great energy. He even said that he would drag me to form a club , the name is 'Qiuyue-Ai Li'... It took me a lot of effort to get her to dismiss this idea."

Mei brought two cups of tea to the table for the two of them to use, and at the same time asked curiously: "The name 'Qiuyue-Ai Li' is part of the names of the two of you, right? Is something wrong?"

"Uh... If I really use it, I always feel that something bad will happen." Lin Qiuyue crossed her arms and didn't know how to explain to Mei: "But she really messed up the rhythm completely. , obviously I should hide the name Lin Qiuyue..."

Bronya shrugged, threw off her shoes, walked to the sofa in the living room, gently picked up the system cat lying soundly sleeping in the sun, and placed it on her lap.

"This smelly cat." Lin Qiuyue muttered.

Kiyana ran to the study and fiddled with the game console enthusiastically, while Bronya was lost in thought with the cat in her arms.Looking left and right, Lin Qiuyue found that she had nothing to do, so she could only go to the kitchen to help Mei.

Mei seemed to be preparing dinner, but she did not refuse Lin Qiuyue's offer to help.

Looking at the vegetables that were obviously just bought, Lin Qiuyue asked: "Mingming, you don't need to cook by yourself at all, why don't we go to a nearby restaurant to solve the problem?"

"That's true, but I always feel that I'm not used to not making something for Kiyana myself, and I haven't let Kiyana eat something I made for a long time-speaking of it, I would like to thank you for giving me this Chance."

Lin Qiuyue laughed dryly: "I didn't think in this direction at all."

The atmosphere became subtly awkward, Lin Qiuyue was processing the ingredients dully, while Mei opened the pot from time to time to cook some semi-finished products.The two remained silent for a while, and then Lin Qiuyue finally found a suitable topic.

"Ah, there is something I have to tell you." Lin Qiuyue wiped her hands with her apron, and then took her tablet: "Mei, do you know what my goal in Chiyoda is?"

"You told me before you came, wasn't it for the promotion of your new book?"

"Well, but after chatting with Alicia just now, there is another task, which is to carry out the preliminary promotion of "Railgun." Lin Qiuyue has already obtained the serialization license and will publish it in the magazine soon The "Railgun" manga Chapter 1 was handed to Mei: "Well, I promised you a long time ago, but it took so long to show the results..."

Mei was surprised, she was stunned for a while before turning off the stove, then dried her hands, and took the tablet with a serious attitude.

——This cautiousness made Lin Qiuyue even more embarrassed.

Obviously Mei is the first person to know the relationship between "Magic" and her. Although it was said that the third volume of "Magic" was specially created for Mei, but after thinking about it carefully, I know that this is not convincing. After all, the relationship between Bronya and Mei can be regarded as close. Just ask a little bit to know how many short stories Lin Qiuyue has written for Bronya, not to mention the article "Spherical Lightning" that inspired Mei a lot. " up.

Although Lin Qiuyue later said that she would make a special version for Mei, that is, "Railgun".But thinking about how many works have been between the publication of "Magic Forbidden" and now, Lin Qiuyue is a little ashamed.

But apparently Mei didn't care about it.

She sat down in the restaurant, carefully admiring every image of the "Railgun" manga.Obviously she was just reading manga, but Mei's attitude was as solemn as standing in an art gallery looking at a work of art.On the contrary, this aroused the guilt in Lin Qiuyue's heart even more, and gave her the urge to go to the deep spiral or Xilin's dream world to shut herself up for a while.

Fortunately, this torment did not last long. The content of a manga would not take too much time, and Mei quickly read all the content.

The content of Chapter 1 of "Railgun" is very simple: Shirai Kuroko, who is a disciplinary committee member, ran into Misaka Mikoto who was beating up a gangster violently. After Shirai Kuroko took her away, it was an impressive roundabout kick repair Law.

"However." Mei pointed to the interaction between the two in the bathroom in the manga: "Qiuyue, are you sure this is really a normal way for girls to communicate?"

"Ah... ah ha ha ha... I think this kind of thing happens occasionally, right?" Lin Qiuyue laughed dryly.

Then, while out with friends, they encounter a bank robbery.At first, Shirai Kuroko was still trying to persuade Misaka Mikoto not to intervene, but after the fleeing guest accidentally pushed the crepe onto Misaka Mikoto's clothes, Shirai Kuroko could only sit back and watch Misaka Mikoto use force as a personal provocation against her. respond.

After a crisp "super electromagnetic gun", the plot of Chapter 1 is over.

"This content will be published soon, and I'm still working on the follow-up content." Lin Qiuyue waited cautiously for Mei's reply: "What do you think?"

"Are all of these drawn by Qiuyue herself?"

"Yes, I promised you back then." Lin Qiuyue smiled a little embarrassedly.

Mei nodded, turned back to the pages of the bathroom and tasted it carefully before turning off the screen of the tablet.

She laughed and looked at Lin Qiuyue tenderly: "As my thanks, how about making papaya soup tonight?"

"No, wait a minute, I don't really care about those things..."

231 Don't Be Fooled by the Three-Dimensional People

The city next to St. Freya will fall into silence not long after nightfall, but in the bustling Chiyoda City, this situation will not happen at all.

Even though it was late at night, the urban area of ​​Chiyoda was still busy.Sitting on the sofa of the homestay, Lin Qiuyue could still hear the whistle from outside the window from time to time.Although the sound insulation effect of the homestay is good, it cannot escape the ears of the Valkyries.Although it is not to the extent of disturbing people's dreams, it does make everyone who is used to the quiet of the school district feel a little uncomfortable.

Naturally, Kiana proposed to go to the night market in Chiyoda.

This suggestion was unanimously approved by all.

After walking for a while after leaving the homestay, Lin Qiuyue followed the map and came to a fairly modern commercial street.The dense crowd of pedestrians, the neon lights and signboards that illuminate the sky all make the crowd feel unreal and noisy.

"It's really lively." Looking at the passers-by in all directions, Mei was the first to sigh involuntarily: "This is the city we want to protect in the future."

Qiyana suddenly thought: "Then can we ask them to charge a little protection fee?"

"Even if the protection fee is paid, it will not be handed over to an idiot like Kiyana." Bronya interrupted Kiyana's fantasy cruelly: "And destiny or anti-entropy must have already put these matters in taxation or other way to recoup costs..."

"But it's true, there are a lot of alive and kicking humans." Lin Qiuyue had her own unique way of feeling: "St. Freya Academy is full of beautiful girls. It's a bit uncomfortable to see so many ordinary people suddenly."

"Does Qiuyue want to say that she is also a beautiful girl?" Bronya lowered her voice, breaking through the small thoughts in Lin Qiuyue's words.

Lin Qiuyue smiled. Although she did have such thoughts, she was still a little embarrassed after being discovered by Bronya.

"Qiuyue, Qiuyue!" Qiyana suddenly yelled, urging them to look at their discovery: "This is the poster of "Magic Forbidden"!"

"The latest book is about to be released, and the manga is in hot serialization... Oh hoo." Lin Qiuyue muttered, leaning over to Qiyana's side and knowingly asked: "I remember this book, Qiyana, do you like it very much?"

"Yeah, but now..." Qiyana's expression was a little weird: "But there are too many messy settings now. I have been watching the series, but I always feel that I have forgotten some important plots."

"Indeed, the reason why I didn't read the novel "Magic Forbidden" at the beginning was because I felt that there were too many and complicated settings." Lin Qiuyue has a deep understanding of this: "But it should be easier to understand from the comics."

Kiyana nodded: "I'm also reading comics, and I heard that "Magic Forbidden" may be animated in the future. When the animation comes out, more people should watch it... I hope that by then If someone can summarize the settings in "Magic Forbidden", I am already too lazy to remember those things."

"Animation? Is there such a good thing?"

Lin Qiuyue was thinking about whether to call Naruko Kurosawa to confirm, but at this moment she realized that Mei and Bronya behind her were staring at her intently.

"Cough, I'm just a little curious." Lin Qiuyue stood up with an innocent face: "Did I say anything strange just now?"

Mei stared at Lin Qiuyue, and after a while leaned over to Bronya's ear: "I always think Qiuyue looks like she is enjoying it?"

"...Only the world where Kiyana doesn't know why." Bronya's words contained a rare trace of pity: "From another perspective, maybe this is a happy thing?"

Mei remembered that she didn't know how to urge the "Railgun" for a long time before, and suddenly felt sad: "You are right."

The murmurs between the two finally caught Qiyana's mind, but Qiyana obviously wouldn't associate the attitude of the two with Lin Qiuyue, she just thought it was "Wow, look, it's Two-dimensional" kind of helpless. Clearly stated ambiguous attitude.So she also imitated Lin Qiuyue and coughed dryly, and then leaned to her side: "This kind of hobby is completely normal. It's not a problem to like to read light novels and comics! Qiuyue, don't worry, even if everyone doesn't understand, I'll be with you too!"

Looking at the benefactor in another sense beside her, Lin Qiuyue chose to remain silent.

Just as Lin Qiuyue expected, Qiyana's attention was quickly attracted by the food stalls and izakayas in the commercial street.The high level of consumption has also brought about an excellent taste experience - even though she has just enjoyed the dinner made by Mei herself, Kiyana still can't help but want to taste more.

Mei soon followed Qiyana helplessly into the alley of the izakaya. With the experience of eating and drinking with "Qiana" last night, Lin Qiuyue decisively chose to take Bronya to go somewhere else hang out.Fortunately, Bronya had no objection to this, and the two of them left Mei alone and walked towards the other side of the shopping street.

"It seems like it's the first time I've been hanging out with Bronya at night." Lin Qiuyue looked at the surrounding street scene, and had nothing to say: "Is it okay to leave Rosalia and Lilia in the academy?"

"Those two people are fine—even if they are thrown into the forest, they can take care of themselves." Bronya's eyes flicked across the shop signs on the street. Although there are many shops still open, But most of the clothing stores that Bronya was looking forward to had already closed.

This made Bronya quite regretful. In order to win over Fu Hua, she did not interfere with Lin Qiuyue and Fu Hua's weekend shopping.But when she saw Lin Qiuyue returning to the dormitory with a few dresses, Bronya still felt sorry for not being able to see Lin Qiuyue try more different styles of clothes.

But relatively, spending time with Lin Qiuyue in the streets under the night is also a good choice...

Just as Bronya was thinking this way, a leaflet was suddenly handed to the two of them.

"Welcome to Miss Pink Fairy's coffee shop and take a look—ah, isn't this Teacher Iris?"

That very characteristic, frivolous tone that people couldn't forget at all made Bronya realize who the other party was almost instantly.Alicia was dressed in a rather frightening maid outfit, and appeared in front of the two with a vigorous posture that was completely inconsistent with the nightfall.

"Hey, don't be fooled by those three-dimensional people." Alicia, with an attitude of seeing through what happened to the two, advised them in a heartbroken tone, without giving them any room to argue: "I I know that Teacher Iris and little sister Bronya are very tired from shopping - anyway, they are here, why don't you come to my coffee shop and sit down!"

"Your coffee shop? But we're not in the daytime..."

"The little sister of this store wants me to be the store manager for a day no matter what. The kindness is hard to refuse, and I happen to be a little interested in this, so I will give it a try." Alicia trembled The corner of the skirt: "Are you interested in maids? Teacher Iris? Or... are you interested in this maid?"

232 You Can Always Trust Alicia

coffee shop.

The decoration of this store is obviously based on the theme of thick wood and heavy black metal, highlighting a certain deep and steady momentum.But for some reason, the waiters who were busy in the store at the moment were all wearing maid outfits that didn't fit the decoration style—including the male waiter standing behind the bar.

"Okay, Mr. Iris and my little sister are sitting here. The most famous product in our store is black coffee. It is a great choice to pair with cream tart, berry cake or macaron set meal." Alicia skillfully He quickly announced a bunch of desserts, as if he didn't intend to show Lin Qiuyue the menu at all.

"Well...Although I came in with you in a daze, let me tell you first, I don't intend to drink coffee." Lin Qiuyue pointed to the clock in the coffee shop: "It's past nine o'clock in the evening, and I originally planned to go shopping again. Go back to bed after shopping."

"What? Teacher Iris, how can you sleep at this age?" Alicia "turned pale with shock", but soon her face regained a smile: "But we also have ways to deal with it! Why don't we first Teacher Iris will come with a set of sleeping pills, and I promise that no matter how the little sister here handles Teacher Iris, you will not wake up, teacher..."

"Don't talk nonsense here just because you are cute! You are committing a crime!"

"Crime?" Alicia stretched out her finger and tapped her lips, and then smiled again: "Hey~ how come, crimes only happen when one party is unwilling. Little sister , What do you think of the recommendation I just made? It's our special set meal."

In the stormy moves of Ai Lixi and Lin Qiuyue's embarrassing response, Bronya's expression has not changed at all, as stable as a lighthouse standing in the raging waves.Seeing that the topic suddenly shifted to Bronya, Lin Qiuyue breathed a sigh of relief—for Bronya who lost her emotional module, I'm afraid even Alicia couldn't let her lose her sense of proportion.

But what Bronya said next surprised or disappointed Lin Qiuyue.

"Qiuyue really doesn't seem to be getting enough rest recently, maybe sleeping pills can really help her..."

Lin Qiuyue hurriedly clarified: "Wait a minute, wait a minute, I have been trying to sleep for eight hours, and the doctor said I am healthy!"

Although for Lin Qiuyue, after having the deep spiral, her sleep time is indeed not enough, but this kind of time is obviously not suitable for telling the truth.

"Oh, Iris-sensei doesn't look like she has a bad complexion." Unexpectedly, it was Alicia who spoke for her.She looked sideways at Lin Qiuyue's face for a long time, and then smiled at Bronya: "The little sister may have made a mistake in her judgment, maybe she should... get closer... and look more carefully?"

Bronya's face was straight, and she didn't seem to take Alicia's provocative words to heart at all.But what immediately terrified Lin Qiuyue was that Bronya actually stood up, ran to her side and began to observe at close range.

"I, me, you, you, you..." Lin Qiuyue couldn't speak immediately after being stared at by Bronya: "This... this, I mean..."

"Teacher Iris, why don't you have some coffee and concentrate on it." Alicia's smiling voice passed through Lin Qiuyue's panic and rang softly in her ear.

"Yes! I want one... oh no, two!"

"Just drinking coffee will make your mouth bitter, how about a dessert to balance it out? I think the new cheese cream fruit parfait deluxe meal for two is good..."

"Yes! I want it, can't I!"

"Thank you~ for your patronage~"
