I like traveling the most

"You guys, you must be tired from playing. Here, have something to drink."

While laughing, Xiaolin handed Darkness and the others a few drinks bought from the commercial street.

After Huihui took it, she shook the cup, and some black particles swayed in the light gray liquid, and then slowly settled down.

The little loli said in surprise: "This... What a subtle color, what are the black particles inside?"

"It's milk tea!" Aqua cheered, and urged others at the same time: "The things inside are called pearls. Milk tea is delicious. You guys should try it quickly."

"Oh, oh..."

Seeing Aqua sucking in big mouthfuls, Darkness and the others also tasted it carefully. But soon, they were captured by the dense, sweet and smooth milk tea.

"This is really an incredible drink. It's really hard to suck these black particles into your mouth... um, um?!" Darkness was a little choked after exerting too much force, and covered her mouth and nose and coughed gently.

"It's okay, calm down and drink it."

Yoyo patted her back with concern.

Huihui made a strange pose, hanging the milk tea above her head, and inserted the sucking monster into her mouth and said vaguely: "Hehe, I thought of a cool way to drink it, look!"

"It's just a pearl, it's too exaggerated!"

Seeing their fuss, Sato Kazuma pulled the corner of his mouth.

Aqua teased behind her: "Isn't Kazuma excited too? Recently, he has been mumbling that he hasn't eaten island cuisine for a long time... and so on."

"Noisy, noisy, these are two different things."

The modern stay-at-home boy who was exposed was embarrassed.

Kobayashi asked his companions about the taste and received unanimous praise from them. After thinking about it, he decided to replicate the drink of milk tea in the other world, and then discussed the feasibility of this matter with Sato Kazuma.

Milk tea is a casual drink that basically kills men, women, old and young.

Whether it is catering, a special milk tea shop, or an additional service to attract customers, novel milk tea is the best choice.

If you can make a fortune from it, why not do it.

Suddenly——

[Beep! Reminder, there are ten hours left. If you can't complete the task now instructed within the specified time, you will spend your whole life in this world. 】

A mysterious mechanical sound came from the sky.

Sato Kazuma's face suddenly changed, and he shouted: "Huh?! What's going on, I haven't heard of this!"

"That's right! And it's too much to limit the time suddenly!"

Aqua also complained.

Like some stores that claim to be free, they are free on the surface but actually have hidden secrets, and all kinds of tricks follow that make people hard to guard against.

"No, it seems that it said that if time permits..."

Darkness recalled.

So it seems that when they first came in, there was indeed a reminder of the words "if time permits".

But isn't this the same as beef pie and beef-flavored pie? How dare they play word games...

"Damn it!"

Aqua puffed up her lips in anger.

But there was no time for them to complain, as the mysterious mechanical voice issued a task.

[Then, please look up. ]

The people who received the prompt raised their heads and found that above the originally blue city, there was a large virtual screen floating at the top of the city, and there were a few big words written on it.

[Task! ]

[Escape from the virtual space TOKYO! ]

"Words appeared in the sky..."

"You really put in a lot of effort..."

"Escape?"

The reactions of several people were different, but they were all a little uneasy about what was going to happen next.

[From now on, please collect the props scattered in this virtual space. If you collect all of them within the time limit, you can return to the original world, but if you fail to collect all of them successfully, you will be trapped here forever. Please do your best while solving the prompts. So, let's start. ]

Is that it? Is it a treasure hunt?

Through various hints, code words, brain teasers and other information, you can find the designated people, objects or attractions.

Interesting.

This game is very similar to the variety show in the previous life. Could it be that the bald researcher likes that kind of show and arranged this game to increase the fun?

But no matter what, if you fail, you have to live here for the rest of your life, which is a bit too much as a punishment.

"Hmm? The note fell. Is this a hint? It seems to have something written on it..."

Darkness caught the note that fell from the sky and unfolded it for everyone to see.

[——The symbol of thunder sitting in the Gate of Sorrow. Take a look at the true face of the sacred healing smoke that permeates that land. ]

What a mediocre hint.

But when I think about the guy who designed this game, who once created the Crimson Demon Clan full of Chuunibyou, I am not so surprised.

While others were thinking——

Aqua nodded and said with a smile: "In Tokyo, if it's a door and thunder, it's there."

"Oh, it's a very famous place that even I know about." Sato Kazuma also looked confident.

This is the advantage of being an expert on the local area.

Speaking of which, the Japanese also have the soul of a second-year student in their bones. This kind of awkward second-year student is a specialty for Sato Kazuma and Aqua.

"Okay, follow me!"

Led by the two of them, the group came to Asakusa.

"Asakusa...oh, that's it!"

Kobayashi suddenly realized.

Whenever you come to Tokyo, there is a place you always have to go to, that is Sensoji Temple. And when it comes to Sensoji Temple, the most impressive thing is probably the big red lantern hanging high at the entrance-"Kaminarimon"!

The lantern, which is in stark contrast to the impression, has become a golden signboard of Sensoji Temple.

In addition, the original name of this big lantern is not Kaminarimon, but a more domineering name.

——Wind God Raijinmon.

The small pavilion on the left side of the lantern enshrines the God of Thunder, and the pavilion on the right side of the lantern enshrines the God of Wind. These two are gods who control the world's thunder and wind, respectively, and have extremely powerful powers. Therefore, the name of this gate is called the Wind God Raijinmon.

But later, people simply called it Kaminarimon for convenience.

Darkness looked around and found that there were many pedestrians on the street, and they were all wearing kimonos.

"What a vibrant city. There are so many people wearing kimonos. Is it New Year's Day today?"

"Because it's a tourist attraction, it feels like this. Anyway, let's go to the courtyard first... Wait, where's Aqua?"

"Hey, she was just next to me."

Everyone realized that the stupid goddess had disappeared.

"That... Miss Aqua seems to be over there."

"... What is that idiot doing?"

Following the direction of Youyou's finger, I saw that Aqua had mixed with the people performing at the door at some point.

"Welcome, welcome! Today we have Rakugo and Manzai, and there's also a magic show going on!"

"Here, here is...! Brother, give me a ticket!"

The stupid goddess was excited and wanted to enjoy herself.

But she was grabbed by Kobayashi: "Hey, don't just go in, we have to solve the mystery first."

"Let me go! This is a legendary theater where outstanding artists are active! I can't ignore things related to art!" Aqua kept waving her limbs in Kobayashi's arms, trying to break free.

With such an eager attitude, I couldn't figure out whether she was the goddess of water or the goddess of art.

"Don't worry about art! Let's go to the inner courtyard!"

"Wuwuwu... the legendary theater, I really want to see it..."

"I'll accompany you later."

"Really? That can't be helped."

Before the stupid goddess was about to cry, Kobayashi made a promise first, which prevented her from being seduced by the art theater.

Just reunited with her companions.

Huihui pointed to the other side and exclaimed: "Look! There's a large group of people over there, and there's thick smoke. What on earth is that...!"

"Are they gathered together just to be smoked? I seem to get along well with the residents here! I'll be there soon too!"

"Don't go over there!"

He grabbed another perverted female knight who wanted to blend in.

Even in modern society, can't you bear the turmoil in your heart? No, it's better to say that it's because you've come to modern society and are attracted by new things that you can't bear it even more.

"It's very serious and ceremonial, so don't just go in casually."

"It is said that if you put the part of your body that is uncomfortable on the smoke, it will get better."

After hearing the explanation of Sato Kazuma and Aqua, Yuyou said thoughtfully: "Oh, is it the same thing as healing?"

"It's not a direct effect like healing magic... huh? Healing?"

Sato Kazuma seemed to have thought of something.

Looking at him who was lost in thought, several people tacitly did not disturb him. Because every time this happened, it meant that Sato Kazuma had discovered something, and over time they got used to keeping quiet.

Soon--

"The true face of the healing smoke... yes, it's that!"

Sato Kazuma suddenly realized.

Obviously, he solved the puzzle.

Then, at his call, everyone gathered around the incense burner, ignoring the curious and disgusted eyes of others, and began to search for anything suspicious inside.

"Ahem, Kazuma, is there really a clue here?"

Aqua was choked and speechless.

Sato Kazuma also coughed and said, "If that note is a hint, then it must be right!"

"Haa, haa... This suffocating feeling... Not bad, give me more... Smoke, let me suffer more...!"

Unlike the others who endured the choking smoke, Darkness seemed to enjoy it.

Although she was also enduring, the direction of endurance was different.

Meihui and Yunyun cooperated with each other, and the tacit understanding of the two soon found something from it.

"Found it!"

"Please look, there is something!"

After that, it was taken out and placed on the palm of the little loli.

"Well done, Meihui!" Kobayashi praised, and then asked with some doubts: "What shape is this... Is it the number 4?"

[Beep! Device 4 has been confirmed to be collected. ]

A mysterious mechanical sound appeared in the sky again.

Although there was still no fluctuation in the tone, the words already showed that they had found the right one.

[Now start playing the message of the Creator. ]

[——Congratulations. Yeah, well done. If you want me to praise you, I can. 】

"This sound really makes me angry."

The ups and downs of the mechanical sound made me even more upset.

It was as if they were teasing them in a condescending tone on purpose, and their mood suddenly fell to the bottom.

However, there were no more messages. What the other party said was more like a provocation, trying to make them continue playing.

[New hints are given below, please do your best. ]

Then, another note fell from the sky.

——A spinning flower blooming in the sky overlooking the rainbow bridge.

"What does it mean?"

"Is it somewhere else?"

"I don't quite understand this time, where is Kazuma?"

"Rainbow Bridge? A spinning flower? Hmm... I don't understand it at all. Does Senior Kobayashi have any ideas?"

"Sorry, I'm the worst at deciphering."

Now everyone was at a loss.

The difficulty suddenly soared, causing everyone's thoughts to stagnate for a while, and their brains were a little confused.

So Huihui suggested: "Maybe it's nearby. How about going to other places in the city?"

"Okay, how about going to the nearby amusement park? It seems there are roller coasters and Ferris wheels." Aqua followed closely.

"Oh, what is that?"

"Well... I took a picture of the Ferris wheel in Odaiba just now. Let me show you. Look, it's this."

Aqua opened the photo album on her smartphone and showed the photo she had just taken to Darkness, Megumin and the other three.

Megumin's eyes lit up and she exclaimed, "Oh, oh, oh! It's the one I was interested in when I saw it in Odaiba just now! I really want to ride it!"

"This... is this!"

"That's it!"

Kobayashi and Sato Kazuma said in unison.

After seeing the Ferris wheel, the two immediately thought of it.

"The One-Way Revolving Flower refers to this!"

"That's right. Let's go to Odaiba!"

Without waiting for the others to agree, the two decided where to go.

However, Aqua sighed, "No, I want to go to the nearby amusement park. It's too far to go to Odaiba. Besides, why go to Odaiba? There's a Ferris wheel in the nearby amusement park."

"You idiot... Senior Kobayashi, I'll leave the explanation to you." Sato Kazuma rolled his eyes, not wanting to talk to the stupid goddess.

And Kobayashi explained, "It's true that the one-wheeled flower refers to the Ferris wheel, but the tip to overlook the rainbow bridge is not applicable there, and the only place that can overlook the rainbow bridge is Odaiba. Although it's troublesome, let's go there."

"That's right, Aqua, stop complaining, let's go!"

Sato Kazuma urged everyone.

Soon, the group arrived at the amusement park in Odaiba and rode the Ferris wheel.

Although there was no way to get six people to sit together, they split into two teams to ride the Ferris wheel and experience the feeling of being in the air.

Aqua, lying at the door, looked down at the dense crowd.

"Look, there are so many people, just like garbage."

Her expression and tone were quite gloomy and terrifying, as if she had deliberately said this.

Darkness was lying at the door, blushing and panting, and no one knew what she was imagining.

Sato Kazuma said with disgust: "Hey, perverted knight, even if you jump down from this height, you will die very easily, don't do anything stupid."

"I, I'm just imagining it, don't make me sound so bad!"

"Yes, you can't open the door anyway... Senior Kobayashi, what's wrong with you?"

After perfunctorily answering, Sato Kazuma saw that Kobayashi, who was sitting opposite, was not paying attention to this, but kept looking behind him.

"Well..."

"What are those two idiots doing?"

Sato Kazuma, who noticed something was wrong, turned his head and found that the two Crimson Demon girls who were one position behind them were fighting with each other for some reason.

Hey, hey, hey, this is high in the sky.

If you fall down, you will really die.

Fortunately, there was no such thing as equipment failure in the virtual city. Even though Huihui and Youyou almost caused the position to rotate 360 ​​degrees, they both got off the Ferris wheel safely.

Of course, even after getting off the Ferris wheel, the two stupid Crimson Demons did not let go of their hands that were pulling each other's cheeks.

For some reason, I suddenly felt unconfident about the next decryption.
