Endless Silver Machine

The time agreed with Yi Nili happened to be on the weekend, and they were told that they had something to go to the school building, so they did not come with them.

This left some time to show Yi Nili around the school building, and there were no other students in the school building on weekends, but Yi Nili still carefully hid her identity.

After returning home last night, Yinili used the excuse of "wanting to rest" to stay quiet, and Aika lost the opportunity to introduce her to her family.

"Is this where you usually study?"

The two of them walked in the silent corridor.

Arriving in front of the twin class classroom, Yi Nili stopped.

When introducing Shimotsuki Academy to Inili the day before yesterday, Aika also mentioned the class he was currently studying in, and Qiu Ke also selectively talked about some of their affairs.

"Can I come in?"

"It's fine if it's not locked."

Aika pushed the door, but the classroom door was not locked. Inili followed Aika into the classroom.

"The number of desks is very small. Are there actually not many students in Shigezuki Academy?"

"After all, it is very difficult to study here. Without the help of the Holy See, I might not be able to enter here now."

"I see."

Inili walked past the table, touching the surface with her hands, which of course only showed through.

"This kind of body also has many inconveniences..."

Inili retracted her hand with some regret and continued to walk leisurely in the classroom.

The most scenic place outside Shimozuki Academy is the courtyard, which has naturally become one of Inili's places to visit.

However, unlike the school building, the courtyard is the most crowded during leisure times like weekends.

There are many courtyards within the scope of Shigezuki Academy, and there are already people there in the ones Aika passes now, so the two of them continue to walk forward.

Even if you don't sit in the courtyard, the scenery around it is very pleasant.

"I may only be able to walk around here today, and it happens to be rest time, so other people usually make appointments to spend the weekend here."

"That's a shame, but that's okay."

Although Inili said this, her interest was still unabated. Walking along the bustling paths, Yinili's eyes shined like a child's.

As long as Inili can be satisfied, Aika thought. Because the protagonist today is not me, but her.

"Aika Chise, do you feel happy in your current life?"

Inili suddenly called out her full name.

Aika is not very used to calling her this, and she rarely hears it called her this way.

I wouldn't say it's annoying, but it has a special meaning to everyone.

Aika only hopes for a peaceful and peaceful life, but the family is also a connection that cannot be abandoned, so his attitude towards "giving a surname" is very complicated.

If it were her former self, Inili's questions would silence her.

But now, with his new family by his side, this question is no longer so difficult to answer.

"Um."

"That's great."

Why should Inili congratulate herself? Aika doesn't know the answer yet.

…………

After leaving the spring trail, we visited many places along the way.

Shuoyue Academy is very large, and it would take nearly half an hour just to quickly cross the two points and one line of the academy.

And their paths are tortuous. If you can't enter the place, walk around it, and Aika will introduce it to her; if you can enter the place, let her experience it by herself, but Aika's explanation is still indispensable.

Fortunately, not many people noticed Aika's "talking to himself" and did not encounter friends in the academy. Aika deliberately chose to walk on the road with fewer people.

"There's nothing worth seeing when we get here," Aika stopped in the outer forest of Shimozuki Academy, which is one of the boundaries. "Although there are still some places that I haven't reached yet, it's not too early. ”

Aika turned back to look at Inili, who had been lagging behind her since the beginning, and asked her how she felt about today with her eyes.

"It's a beautiful world."

"Although I don't know which corner of the world this is."

"But the world is made up of these beautiful corners little by little."

"'Beautiful corner'..."

"Don't laugh at me, I am obviously very satisfied with this sentiment."

"Yes, yes, I have the same sentiment."

"Well……"

The first star, symbolizing the beginning of night, shines in the sky.

Unknowingly, Aika spent the day like this without realizing the passage of time.

This is probably the peace and tranquility that one pursues, or some people may think that this is just laziness and laziness.

No matter which view it is, as long as you can accept it.

"Aika, I'm very happy today. I haven't been able to walk around so freely for a long time."

"Inili..."

Aika didn't know if she had opened her heart to him now, and some things couldn't be said without opening her heart, so he hesitated in his heart all day today.

"I know what answer you want to get from me, but I can't answer your question yet."

Yinili, who was a head shorter than Aika, stood on tiptoes and gently pressed his lips, signaling him not to continue exploring.

"Now, I am just Inili, you just need to believe this."

It was obviously an unconvincing answer, but Aika somehow wanted to believe her.

If this is the case, then continuing to get along with her as Inili is not a bad choice.

Aika convinced herself in this way and temporarily put the questions in her heart aside.

…………

Before returning to the caretaker's cabin, Inili told Aika that she had to rest during this time.

"There will be a chance to meet again."

For some reason, Aika wasn't surprised. It seemed like she had a premonition that the two of them would part ways temporarily.

"Well, if you wish, we can meet again at any time. Just don't make me work too hard, and let me sleep well occasionally."

"Don't use that kind of terminology that could lead to misunderstanding..."

After saying goodbye, Inili's figure disappeared.

PDA's molecular power furnace is still operating normally, and as Inili said, if you want to meet, you can meet at any time.

Her figure seems to overlap with someone else, so Aika is still nostalgic and wants to get answers from her.

There was light coming from the window of the caretaker's cabin. On the way back, they had been informed of the specific arrival time, so they must be waiting now.

It is an extremely happy thing to have a home to go back to.

Is Inili home now too?

At this moment when she opened the door to her home, Aika couldn't help but think of this.
