Tomorrow's Ark, the Battle of the Sick

Of course, other people in Rhode Island might be interested.

"—so the doctor went to the mall?"

Ghost Shark said without a trace.

"Residential areas, commercial streets, and finally spent a while with Laplande in the city park."

The doctor didn't notice Ghost Shark's tone, and 'explained' his and Laplande's itinerary to the girls one by one.

"—was 'staying' in the city park for a while?"

Ghost Shark's smile froze.

The sharp gazes of the girls turned to Lapland at the same time, and Lapland trembled subconsciously, leaning against the doctor.

"By the way, I did 'that' with Lapland."

After the doctor finished eating the barbecue, he found that the air was quiet.

King of Propulsion, Ghost Shark, Platinum and Black, and even Indra stopped what they were doing. Ghost Shark stroked the broken hair by his ears, and forced a smile on Laplande.

"Stupid - Laplande, can you explain it to everyone in detail?"

Almost called Laplande's nickname Silly Dog, it can be seen that the always polite Ghost Shark seems a little angry.

In normal times, Laplande would definitely not bother to explain, as she has an aloof personality and doesn't need to care about other people's opinions.

But under the pressure of many gazes, Laplande wagged his tail and glanced at the doctor who seemed unaware of the atmosphere, and finally had no choice but to compromise.

"Ah, I see, I didn't want to tell you."

Laplande sighed as if giving up, and took out a few small wooden pendants from his pocket.

After coming out of the wood shop, Laplande carved several small pendants with a knife.

Laplande planned to keep it for himself, and didn't want others to know, since the doctor said it, there was nothing he could do.

The shapes of the pendants include animals such as lions, panthers, and pegasus.

Laplande is very knowledgeable about knives, and the carved pendants are lifelike. Dr. Park in Rhode Island saw her carving before, although she couldn't see what she was carving at that time.

"For a little delay, Laplande has prepared a gift for you."

The doctor's words made Laplande stunned.

Ghost Shark came back to his senses, and then smiled apologetically at Laplande.

"Sorry, it seems we misunderstood you, Laplande."

Then she pointed to the pendant in Laplande's hand.

"Is this for us?"

Laplande glanced at the doctor, then nodded bluntly, and handed the pendant to the ghost shark.

"Anyway, it's just for fun, so I can give it to you if you want it."

"Thank you~."

Ghost Shark picked up a pendant and thanked Laplande sincerely.

"Are you being honest, or is Laplande shy~?"

Holding a wooden pendant in the shape of a pegasus, Platinum said teasingly.

"Stop rambling—."

Although it was not Laplande's original intention to give away the pendants, seeing other people interested in the pendants he made, Laplande's mood quickly improved, and he began to popularize the craftsmanship of the pendants with them.

Seeing the heated discussion among the girls, the doctor didn't bother.

"Thank you, Doctor."

The King of Boost did not join in the discussion, but sat beside the Doctor and watched them.

"What's wrong?"

The doctor, who forced the dishonest Laplande to muster up the courage to send the pendant, seemed unconscious.

The Push King looked at him for a moment, then shook his head slightly.

"It's nothing, you don't have to worry about it."

Chernobog is brightly lit at night, but it can't hide the stars in the sky.

"Have you ever missed your hometown?"

For some reason, the doctor asked a slightly abrupt question.

The Boost King was from Victoria, but the Doctor had rarely heard her mentioned.

"——that is quite far away, and for me now, missing it has no meaning."

Perhaps a little suddenly, the King of Propulsion gently took the doctor's arm.

Perhaps because he was worried that the doctor would avoid it, the King of Propulsion moved very lightly and slowly, but the doctor did not move away.

"Beside you is my second hometown, Doctor."
