Chapter 562 Is This Cha Gang?

The afterglow of the setting sun reflected so obliquely that the shadows of pedestrians on the street were dragged long.

Yuigahama Yui said that he was going to find Hikigaya Hachiman, but he never came back, probably because he was held back by the latter who knew how to judge the situation and observe the situation, so he didn't run back foolishly by himself.

After all, any fool should know that the two top castes in the Ministry of Service are about to fall in love and kill each other again. How hard do they have to be to take the initiative to bump into each other at such a time!

Of course, the rational choice is to avoid if you can. Hikigaya Hachiman knows very well who is the person he should hold together for warmth, so he will naturally persuade Yuihama Yui.

As the time for club activities passed, it was finally time for school to end, and the students packed their things and walked out of the school one after another.After all, there is neither a boarding system nor evening self-study, and the school will not allow students to stay alone on campus at night.

After all, no matter which school it is, this kind of thing is not willing to see it. Once something happens, whose responsibility is it?Most schools even try their best to shirk their normal responsibilities, let alone such unexpected disasters.

Special building, east side of the fourth floor.

The door to the activity room had just been closed, and there was a rather dull friction sound in the door frame.

Yukino Yukino turned around in the corridor, looked at Xia Ran who was standing beside her, and said coldly, "See you tomorrow, classmate Xia Ran."

On the floor of the corridor, there was the afterglow that came in intermittently from the window. The long hair, black and soft like black silk, hung behind the girl, shining a red light as if it was burning under the setting sun.

"Well, see you tomorrow."

Xia Ran nodded lightly, said kindly, and waved to her enthusiastically as a farewell.

"..."

"..."

It's just that what greeted him was a cold gaze, which was harsh and obviously displeased, almost frostbitten.

Obviously said goodbye, but Yukinoshita didn't move, just stood there silently staring at Xia Ran, without saying anything.

It's just that the low air pressure overflowing around her is so real that it makes people wonder if she can release black magic at any time... Although she doesn't actually have even a magic circuit, nor does she really possess "magic power" ".

However, it has nothing to do with aptitude, mainly because the time is too short, and the mysteries of this world have generally faded and become weaker.Just like the so-called Dharma-ending age, practice has always become more difficult.

Just like that, the two of them stared wide-eyed, Xia Ran still maintained a gentle and polite smile, as if waiting for Yukinoshita to turn around and leave first, to watch the girl leave.

However, the girl obviously didn't think so. She didn't say anything, and didn't take a step. She didn't leave along the middle of the corridor with a straight posture as usual, but just stared at him with displeasure. .

"..."

"..."

"Okay, would you like to visit the Moriya Shrine with me?" After a while, Xia Ran could only shake her head helplessly, said with a sigh, and sent out the invitation with a little amusement.

In fact, it's not that he doesn't know what the girls are fighting for, but he just thinks it's interesting to tease each other like this.

"Hmph, you lead the way."

Yukinoshita Yukino seemed to have been waiting for him to say that, she didn't even have the patience to hide it a little bit, she hummed softly, and agreed directly.

"Actually, there is no need to lead the way. It is the address we visited last time. There is no change. At least the outside Moriya Shrine is still in its original location. If I didn't take over it, it would probably have to be completely moved into Gensokyo. It's..."

Xia Ran chuckled, disapproving of the girl's bossy, knowing that the other party was upset.He took the lead and walked in front of the corridor, and then waved his hands to let Yukinoshita behind him quickly follow.

"At that time, Chiba City will probably be gouged out of an area inexplicably, including the shrine, the surrounding land, and the Fengshen Lake. These lands will be directly packed and migrated to Gensokyo."

"..."

"..."

"Wouldn't such a huge change be easy to detect? After all, in such a city, such a large piece of land suddenly disappeared. This kind of gap is very obvious, right?"

Although he was not very happy to follow behind him, after hearing this statement, Yukinoshita still couldn't help but wondered.

"This is not possible, because it is not the kind that directly digs out an area in the physical sense without technical content... Well, how should I put it? Because the Great Barrier of Gensokyo is a boundary line, it is responsible for filtering common sense And very common sense.”

Xia Ran thought for a while, and changed to a term that should be easier to understand.

"You can see that this world is actually like a lake, which is constantly changing. It is not a solid piece of land. When a large piece of water is dug away, there will be an obvious gap, but immediately It will be filled by the surrounding water body, and there is no difference on the surface..."

"What's the reason?" Yukinoshita frowned lightly. She had a headache. This kind of thing is completely another system. Many things are not unreasonable, but have their own internal logic, so they often appear Abnormal.

"This is a bit complicated to say. The outside world is our world, which is the world of common sense, and those who are not common sense will flow into Gensokyo. The concept of opposites is not a common daily consensus on the same thing in today's society..."

Xia Ran thought about it for a while and began to explain carefully.

"This means that not only mysterious and unscientific things belong to the field of uncommon knowledge, but even things that were common in the past, if they are no longer known to people, naturally no longer belong to the current common sense To put it simply, things that have been forgotten are also very common sense..."

"Student Yukinoshita, you have been to the Moriya Shrine before. You should know that there is no popularity at all, and no one comes to worship there. It has long been forgotten. Even if it is completely hidden, it will not attract too much attention, but The Great Barrier happens to be based on this as the basis for dividing the boundary line..."

Things that have been forgotten by history will appear in Gensokyo, and the Great Barrier has always played the role of filtering and absorbing in this way.

So things that disappear from the outside world will flow into Gensokyo, for example, items that are outdated in the outside world, or even extinct animals, these things can be found again in Gensokyo...

Even the gods and their beliefs are the same. When people admire science and information more, they will naturally lose their faith and be forgotten.Although they often have the ability to choose whether to actively enter Gensokyo or not, the result will not make any difference——

As long as you completely enter the Great Barrier, you will be forgotten by the outside world, and the power of the Great Barrier will also correct a small number of local events.

And this kind of disappearance didn't happen suddenly, it didn't mean that something disappeared suddenly under the eyes of everyone, but it was more like the process of something being forgotten and lost——

If you can always pay attention and remember where things are placed, there will be no loss.

It is precisely because of forgetting, ignoring, and not paying attention to it for a long time... During this process, that thing will be lost unknowingly, and it will never be found again. This is a natural process.

In the same way, the relocation of Moriya Shrine should have been like this, as if it had been forgotten by people, and disappeared without knowing it, and no one would notice it.

Perhaps in the years to come, people from that era suddenly remembered that they had seen such a quiet shrine in Chiba City, but when they searched again, they could no longer find any traces of it. , as if it never existed.

Without that land...

Without that shrine...

Without that lake...

It was as if everything was just their illusion, or just an illusory dream that seemed to belong only to the past.

——That's all.

In the end, even they themselves are not sure whether their impression is correct, so naturally they let it go.And when all these people pass away, everything will be buried and covered by the dust and smoke of history.

Yukinoshita nodded half-understanding, but her brows did not stretch out. She still didn't quite understand the mechanism of this "hidden spirit". She just knew that the Moriya Shrine had been forgotten by others, and then disappeared. The tampering of events on a certain scale also seems to be based on this foundation.

Generally speaking, the girl really hated this feeling, because it made her feel that she was simply out of tune with that world, and the sense of urgency in her heart became more and more serious.

……

……

The tram started moving.

The scenery outside the window receded rapidly, and then disappeared from the field of vision.

Because Xia Ran chose to go back to the shrine in a normal way, he needed to take the tram, which had little to do with the high consumption or rules in the real world, but mainly because he liked the feeling.

Everyday life should be normal. This kind of slow and leisurely lifestyle makes him feel very comfortable, and he doesn't intend to use spells. He pursues instant success in everything.

It may be because of the culture of overtime, most of the social animals can't get off work at this time, so the compartment is quite empty, there are only the two of them in the entire row of seats on one side, and Yukinoshita is sitting next to him.

Neither of them spoke much, just like passengers sitting next to each other on the tram, passing the time.It's just that everyone who saw the two probably didn't think they were really strangers.

The school uniforms of the same style are like couples' outfits, and the appearance of sitting side by side is also very good. Even if there is no conversation and communication along the way, it will not make people feel stiff and unfamiliar. On the contrary, they are inexplicably harmonious and seem to be quite tacit.

——This is a very strange feeling. I can’t say it specifically, but it’s just a subconscious feeling.

The setting sun sank into the horizon, leaving only the last ray of red hanging on the horizon.
