Chapter 936: A Long Day in the Life of Miyama Kaito ? (2/2)

She seemed to believe me when I said that I had no idea what I was talking about, and Alice returned her gaze to the board game with a slightly embarrassed expression on her face.

Hmmm, seriously though, what is this? However, this doesn't really feel that bad…… If anything, it's like I have an even better impression of Alice than before or something like that.

I don't know what the cause is, but I probably shouldn't worry too much about it since there's no real damage. Well, except for Alice looking somewhat embarrassed.

Yesterday, I was on a deserted island with a starry sky in sight…… and in front of me was a woman with a mechanical wing.

[I hadn't seen you since yesterday, my child! I had such a good time talking to you yesterday that I called you back again today!!!]

[Y- Yeah…… So that's why huh.]

[Unnn?]

[Ah, no, it's nothing. It's just that a question I had in mind had just been answered.]

Looking at the woman in front of me, Makina-san, and got the answer to the strange exchange I had with Alice during the day. I see, I heard about Alice's past in my dream last night for about 20 minutes…… and I may have forgotten about that in itself, the favorable impression I had of Alice remained in my mind, which is why I had been feeling that way.

[Errr, good evening, Makina-san…… This place is?]

[Good evening! Fufufu, this is the place I told you yesterday, the deserted island where Alice and I first met when we were humans.]

[Heehhh…… So this is that place……]

[By the way, this is what Alice looked like then!]

As soon as Makina-san said that…… a hologram-like image of Alice appeared in front of me. However, this Alice had semi-short hair and was dressed in jeans and a jacket, just like the ones in my world.

[Ohhh, short hair looks pretty good on Alice too.]

[Unnn, unnn, I agree with that. Today, let's continue with yesterday's story…… Errr, where were we yesterday?]

When I saw Makina-san smiling as she made the hologram Alice disappear, I also smiled lightly. She looks a little more childish than Eden-san, but I somehow feel that this is her true self.

I've thought of this before, but I think Makina-san likes to talk to people.

[Errr, if I remember correctly, I think you're still talking about your trip to Japan.]

[Ahh, that's right! After that, you usually go towards what was nearby, right? And yet, the next place Alice brought me to was Australia, you know? Since we went to Japan by ship, we were riding a plane this time……]

When I saw Makina-san talking happily, wondering if Alice would look restless again tomorrow, I couldn't help but smile.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [……The consecutive title count continues…… In other words, the date with Alice would still happen in another arc…… This feels painful.]
