I don't know if it's a coincidence or necessity, but in short, Yu Xiao, who was coerced by Bu Qing to watch the Fireworks Festival, saw a very familiar guy in the process of moving forward——
"Ah, Yu Jun! And senior Bu Qing! Have a good dinner... Oh, no, good evening!"
The green-eyed girl who waved enthusiastically among the crowd was Kaiya Kasaka.
However, it is different from the previous impression——
Today she loosened her ponytail.The dark night sky of the summer season made the girl's long fiery red hair stand out even more.
[In other words, currently the best app for reading and listening to books, change the source app and install the latest version. 】
Also, the clothes have changed.What Raiya was wearing today was a light kimono with a close-fitting style and a white background with cherry patterns.
——Or, it’s the so-called yukata.
Yu Xiao remembered that that seemed to be the attire that must be worn in the culture of Fusang Kingdom when showing up on such festivals.
What should I say.Is this guy unexpectedly a guy who follows the traditions of his home country?
but…
Looking behind the girl, there are laces for fixing clothes that are messed up like some uncles from somewhere.
...Isn't that, the tied one is a bit too rustic?Yu Xiao slandered.
Although I don't know much about foreign customs in this area, Yu Xiao remembers that at least the laces of the bathrobe should be tied into a more beautiful shape.
and so--
"Good evening, Raiya. Let me tell you, why is the kimono tie behind your back tied like this?..."
After Yu Xiao said good night, he also walked up a few steps and asked the girl calmly.
After all, it's someone I've known for a long time, so there's no need to hide anything, right? --he thinks.
"...Ah, it's about tying the yukata. Well, it's because I have something to do, so I didn't go with my family... After that, I was short on time, so...um. It happened like this."
Lai Mi lowered her head in embarrassment.
Up to now, since I just started, I have been monitoring the other party's actions at home——
Sure enough, I can't say it.
"Is that so... Tsk. Sure enough."
After hearing the other party's superficial response, Yu Xiao's expression was also a little tangled.
Sure enough, he still—
"...Let me tidy up for you, Lai Mi. If you are walking outside, you still have to pay attention to your appearance..."
Obsessive-compulsive disorder committed.I don't know why I feel uncomfortable seeing other people's clothes... Maybe this is his heart disease.
So Yu Xiao followed and turned behind Lai Mi, bent her knees and squatted down, and then stood on the high ground below to help the girl untie the tie, and then tied it up again.
Although yukata and hibiscus culture are not in his field of knowledge, tying a bow tie or something is still within the scope of his knowledge.
"Yu Jun?...Ah, that's fine..."
Laimi didn't put much resistance to this.Just let the other party help him tidy up his clothes.
"That's why, Lai Mi...Why can I, a person from another country, help you with your own culture...?"
Naturally, Yu Xiao couldn't avoid some small complaints along the way.
"...Ahaha. I can't help it. As for the clothes, I really like the ones that are easier to move around..."
"I want to say that it's because of this that I can't even figure out the trivial matter of the belt.... Forget it."
Finally, after tightening the tied bow and adjusting it to a relatively suitable position, the work is completed.
Yu Xiao stood up, rested his chin to observe, and then asked:
"That's good, Lai Mi... At least it looks a lot better than what you just did, right?"
"Um...um. Indeed...that is indeed the case, Mr. Yu."
Facing such an inquiry, Laimi agreed with all her mouth—but in fact, she couldn't see the whole picture of the bow tie at the back of her waist.
It's just out of a certain sense of trust, and responding naturally along the other side's words.
After getting a satisfactory answer, Yu Xiao also clapped his hands:
"—Okay. Then, the extra work is over..."
"...Yeah. And it looks like we're done."
But it was Bu Qing's sad chant that took over his words.
What does this mean? ——Before uttering such a question, Yu Xiao already understood the reality.
The crowded sea of people, I don't know when it has filled up the eyes.
Tall, short, fat, and thin, nearly a hundred people formed an unattainable wall of sighs.
"All the vantage points for watching fireworks have been snatched away. Just look at people's heads on the periphery—!"
"Hey. I'm sorry, brother step, it's me..."
"...If you want to watch fireworks, there might be a good place to go."
But at this moment, it was Lai Mi who had been watching silently just now, who reversed the somewhat negative atmosphere.
"ideas…?"
"Yeah. Look. Isn't it pretty empty in there?—"
Then, she pointed her fingertips towards the continuous low hills not far away.
***
One Man Mountain——
There are different opinions on Penglai Island about how to explain this strange-sounding name.
There is a saying that means "Because it will be dangerous, so don't go alone".
Some people also claim that this name is because "if you want to be alone, go there"... or something like that.
However, there is only one thing that is clear at present:
"...It's so nice. Here. You can see beautiful fireworks..."
Looking at the colorful fireworks blooming in the sky, Yu Xiao, who was sitting on the rock pretending to be a chair, sighed like this, regardless of the possibility that the dust might stain his clothes.
——Things that can be clear, that is:
...At least, this place is a good place to watch fireworks, except that it is a bit deserted.
And what Yu Xiao just said was a very ordinary exclamation because of this.
"That's right. The island too, the place here, and the fireworks too. They're all beautiful, beautiful things—"
But these words seemed to evoke some feelings in Mi.
"...It's just. I don't know how long this scene can last..."
Looking at the scene in front of him, Lai Mi seemed a little dazed.
Instead of sitting side by side with Bu Qing and Yu Xiao, she chose to stand quietly by the side——
After all, the girl was embarrassed and reluctant, so she also stained the new clothes.
"...This expression doesn't look like yours, Lai Mi."
Turning his head away, looking at the girl's sad side face under the moon, Yu Xiao judged with some doubts.
"Just now. What did you say?"
But perhaps because of the crackling sound of the fireworks, he didn't hear what Lai Mi said clearly.
"No, no, it's nothing—how should I put it. I was just thinking, it would be nice if such a peaceful life could last forever! ... something like that."
"Hi. I didn't expect you to be worried about this kind of thing... But don't worry, Raiya. This kind of scenery can definitely last."
Grabbing casually, Yu Xiao said casually as he watched the weathered sandstone falling from his fingers little by little.
"This island...although it's small, broken and not rich. But it's because of this...that we can live here and live leisurely in this way."
This is true, it is his sincere words.
After all, he lived in a steel city surrounded by advanced technology in his previous life, and his life in Penglai Island was not much better than his life in this life.
"So you can rest assured, Lai Mi. I think, even if aliens come down one day, they won't take this place as their destination, haha—it hurts!"
And Yu Xiao, who was smiling heartlessly, was suddenly flicked hard on the head by someone.
So he looked towards the source of the movement - Buqing.
"...What's the matter, Brother Step?"
"Because you said it too much. After all, this is also the hometown where you were born and raised? Show some respect, how much—"
"Hey... are you talking about me?! Aren't you the same? Some time ago, you were thinking about going out to the island one day for sightseeing..."
"That is that, this is this! Don't confuse them, Ah Xiao!"
...and looking at the two people who started a chatting and laughing dispute because of this inexplicable trivial matter.
Karazaka Kaiya couldn't help showing a bright smile.
"That's right. From now on, it will always be... Ah, look, it's a frog!"
Chapter 70 The Scorching Defense
And in front of Kronk who silently walked out of Connor's office and walked towards his dormitory.
"Second Lieutenant Kronk!"
Accompanied by a warm greeting, someone walked quickly in small steps, and then came to his side.
It was the figure of a young man who was still a little green on the outside, but he could already see the seriousness unique to soldiers in his gestures.
And in Kronk's memory, the young man's name was indeed——
"Ain. What's the matter? I remember, you should have been assigned to assist in the preparation of the mobile suit just now..."
"Ah, this?" Ain was a little surprised, but then he explained, "Just now, Commander Conrad went to the hangar in person... He said that the next preparation work will be arranged and supervised by him, so, like People from Yanzhou like me... No, an ordinary officer like me has no reason to intervene."
That Connor Conrad would personally intervene in the maintenance of the machine?
Kronk was a little surprised by the information he heard from Ain.
But then he was relieved.The so-called people are one with two sides...
Even if the officer is a little narrow-minded, maybe he will have some good side unexpectedly.
So he turned his attention away from the officer at this moment, and turned to look in the direction of Ain.
"I see...you've worked really hard, Ain. I often think that it would be better if I could take care of you a little more...but I still can't do it right now. I'm sorry."
"where."
After being praised in this way by the superior directly under him, Ain scratched his head in embarrassment.
"I...was originally from the foreign colony of the EU. I was able to come to this army, become a mobile suit pilot, and meet a second lieutenant like you who...you can rely on. Other than that, what else can I ask for? .”
And listening to his words, it is not difficult to understand several facts related to the EU:
That's right. The reason why the EU was able to join the Human Revolutionary Federation and the United States of New World as one of the three major powers in the world is definitely not only relying on the European continent that the country occupies——
In fact, only relying on the resources there, if there is no external energy input, even the heating in winter may not be guaranteed.
Their greatest reliance is the vast colony of the Southern Yanzhou Continent, which has been firmly in their hands since the century of the Industrial Revolution.
As an excellent energy storage place and mineral storage place, they have been the loyal logistics of the constituent countries of the EU for centuries—
[To be honest, I have been using the source-changing app recently to read and update books, switch between sources, and read aloud with many timbres, both Android and Apple. 】
And after the Europa Continent was reorganized into the EU, any supply it needed was continuously delivered to it.
Be it energy or mines...
Naturally, the labor force, which is crucial to development, is also among them.
But, maybe it's because of the sense of superiority that EU people have always had, maybe it's because most people from Yanzhou have some unreliable resumes...
