"Oh, because this is a large-scale parade, the eight kilometers of roads before and after the straight line are closed to traffic. You can see it is written on the itinerary in the guide book, um——"

The woman said as she flipped through the guide book in her hand.

"There are no overpasses nearby... The closest place should be here, right? The underground street is located three kilometers to the west. From the entrance here, U04, via V01, you can cross it underground..."

"Three kilometers?? So far?"

Index had a dying expression on her face. She could no longer bear the feeling of an empty stomach and slumped to the ground speechlessly.

"Woo, it's obviously within reach, why can't I catch it?"

Index let out an aggrieved cry. Although the guard who placed the no-passage sign looked apologetic, rules were rules after all.

"Xia Qing... Where is the nearest stall?"

"Huh? Let me see..."

Xia Qing took the guide book from the female guard, then flipped through it and said.

"It should be here. About three kilometers to the west, it's the same distance as the distance just mentioned."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!"

"Well, it must have been several hours by the time we arrived. How about I carry you on my back?"

"don't want!"

"Then take the bus."

Xia Qing said.

I glanced at the automatic buses plying the street and found that 70% of the buses currently operating were unmanned autonomous buses.

Xia Qing and Index pressed the button temporarily installed at the bus stop, and the bus, powered by electricity, slid forward without making any sound.

Among the development of unmanned technologies for passenger planes, trains, ships, etc., it is said that the most difficult thing is automobiles.

Of all the areas on the road, land, sea, and air, the control and judgment required are the most complicated, so at the moment, it can only be used under traffic restrictions such as during the Daihasei Festival.

Xia Qing walked into the car through the automatically opened door, then reached out to grab the girl's slender right hand and pulled her into the car.

Since general vehicles are not allowed to enter the venue, it was quite crowded.

Although there is a driver's seat in the car, the seat is surrounded by tempered glass panels like a phone booth.

Just seeing the smooth movements of the steering wheel and accelerator on the driver's seat is amazing.

"Xia Qing, you can obviously run faster than the car, why do you still come to take the bus?"

Index asked doubtfully.

"Why bother running by yourself when you can sit still?"

Xia Qing asked rhetorically.

"Ah, so that's it..."

No gasoline was used and the extremely quiet automatic bus stopped several times before the two reached their destination.

Some roads were closed to traffic due to the band's parade, so the bus route was slightly changed.

As soon as you get off the bus, you can see the dense crowds coming and going, the noise of the crowd is everywhere, and the broadcasts related to the game can be heard everywhere.

In addition to the announcers in the arena, various media such as large screens on the walls of department stores, large screens on the belly of spaceships, and outdoor live broadcast studios temporarily set up by TV stations were used.

[Regarding the results of the men’s obstacle walking race just now, it has been judged——]

[The arena for the next hour of competition is as follows. Once the competition starts, you will not be able to enter the venue, please note——】

[In the borrowed object walk jointly organized by the four schools, Tokiwadai Middle School lived up to expectations and won an overwhelming victory. The first place contestant achieved a feat of seven minutes ahead of the other contestants——]

[Report of the conference, Searching for Missing Children, Miss Charles Goncourt from Saint-Dropez, please listen to the broadcast, go to the nearest security robot camera, and show your face and the Daihasei Festival issued by Academy City With the admission pass, we will send your child to the place you designate——】

News about reported missing persons was followed by reports in several languages.

"It seems that's over there, let's go."

Xia Qing said to Index.

"Well, I'm starving to death!"

The girl held her stomach and said in a tone that sounded like she was about to die.

There are so many people in this kind of place, and it is not convenient to take out magical things like gourmet tablecloths. Besides, Xia Qing is not short of money for food now, so it is better to be cautious. Who knows if a random passerby will be there? Eyeliner.

Suddenly, Xia Qing sensed something.

"Is there a magician...?"

————————————————————————————

Kuroko Shirai.

A petite girl with hair tied into two ponytails, a student of Tokiwadai Middle School, a prestigious girls' school for developing superpowers.

She is a LV.4 person with great abilities. She is good at using "space movement". She is one of the best in Tokiwadai Middle School, but she did not participate in this Daihasei Festival.

Due to an incident that happened a few days ago, her wounds have not healed yet, and she is still covered with bandages everywhere.

However, she should be absolutely resting, but now she sneaked out of the hospital and was on the main road of Academy City.

She was still wearing her usual Tokiwadai Middle School uniform, but she was in a wheelchair.

The wheelchair is a sports style that is different from ordinary wheelchairs. The characteristic is that the wheels are tilted into a figure-eight shape like an F1 racing car.

The person who pushed the chair was not Shironami Kuroko.

It was Uiharu Shiori who was holding the wheelchair pusher behind her.

The two of them are colleagues of the "Fengji Committee", Academy City's security maintenance organization composed of superpowers.

Wearing a white short-sleeved T-shirt and black shorts, she looks like a sports girl, which doesn't match the roses and hibiscus flowers on her head at all.

Chapter 161 Ah, so deep (3/4)

The artificial flowers blooming on her head made her head look like she was holding a large vase from a distance.

Uiharu said with a smile while pushing the sports wheelchair.
