Time in a collapsing world

"Have reinforcements from the Fire Chaser arrived?"

Li asked, changing the subject.

"Already on the way." Eden replied.

"Haha... I guess the Fire Chaser Moth is also very helpless, right? The Fire Chaser Moth's fusion warriors hire Fire Chaser Moth people to help solve tasks and so on..."

"Um……"

Eden looked at Li, "Don't you think it's great, Li? You can do this with as little effort as possible."

"It's very good... huh? Did you hire those people for me and Nozomi?"

"Not entirely, haha... I also hope to have a good rest, and have you forgotten? You still have to swim at the beach?"

Eden mentioned this to several people on the way to this archipelago, and also mentioned that he wanted to choose a swimsuit.

"Indeed, if you can complete the task as soon as possible, you will have more time to rest."

After breakfast, a few people rested and chatted in the leisure room until the sound of a new helicopter propeller came from outside.

Leaving Theophel and Pado indoors, Xi and Eden went out to greet them.

There were three helicopters coming this time, and they were all full of people. After stopping at the special parking area, about a dozen people got off the helicopter.

"Miss Eden."

The captain of this small team stepped forward.

"Well, I'll leave the rest to you. Go to the hotel and let me describe the situation here." Eden said.

"it is good."

The captain made a gesture, and then the team members took off the equipment from the helicopter.

"what?"

On the third helicopter side, several team members encountered difficulties.

"What are you dawdling about?"

"No, captain, we are stuck here..."

Looking at the closed lid in front of them, the team members showed distressed expressions. No matter how hard they opened it, they could not open it. Inside were all the luggage and equipment they had brought!

"..."

Such a familiar feeling.

Xi thought of the situation she encountered on the first day she came here. Wasn't it the same then? Sister Padu hid in the space where the luggage was stored...

"Then don't waste time, just destroy it and go find the tools!" the captain ordered.

"Let me do it……"

Xi raised his hand and volunteered to step forward. Just like last time, he violently lifted the lid, revealing the scene inside.

"..."

"..."

"Hello, Hee~?"

The pink-haired girl hiding inside waved hello to Nozomi.

"...Why are you here, Sister Alicia?"

"Well...it's a long story~?"

"Then let's make a long story short."

"This tone... is it Li? Oops, long time no see~?"

The moment Li closed the lid again, Alicia jumped out, taking her suitcase with her.

"Captain Alicia?"

The team leader blinked, surprised that Alicia suddenly appeared from a strange place.

"It's me. Sorry, I bumped against your helicopter a little~?"

After greeting the team members respectively, Alicia came to Eden with her suitcase.

"Eden, I'm here too, don't you feel very surprised?"

"Ellie..."

Although it was strange, Alicia's unexpected visit was also a little more of a surprise to Eden.

"Ellie, why are you hiding there?"

"..."

Riya hugged his chest and stood side by side with Eden, squinting at Alicia.

"Actually..."

Facing the gazes of the two men, Alicia recounted her experience this morning.

……

"Huh? There is no helicopter going to Eden and the others?"

Alicia was dragging her suitcase and getting ready, but she got this news.

"Yes, every helicopter needs to be put on mission now."

The staff showed Alicia the itinerary of each helicopter on the computer.

"Isn't there one? Or three of them~?"

"Sorry, Miss Alicia, all three helicopters are full."

"Is there no seat at all? Can I sit on someone else's lap, or be sat on someone else's lap? Ah... preferably a cute little girl~?"

"Sorry, Miss Alicia, although there is not completely no space, the helicopter's load-bearing capacity also needs to be considered."

"I'm very light~?"

"...Miss Alicia, I remember that your first team has a mission today?"

"Why...don't you have one~?"

Alicia said naturally.

Toot toot———

"Dr. Mei, Miss Alicia wants to escape." The staff made a call.

"Eh?"

Is it actually Mei's eyeliner? !

……

"After that, I had to hide in the helicopter while others were not paying attention. It was very hard~?"

As Alicia spoke, she came between Eden and Li and hugged one of their arms respectively.

"So you skipped the mission, what are you doing here?" Li took her arm out of Alicia's arms.

"Of course I came to see you~?"

Alicia said matter-of-factly, "You must miss me very much, right?"

"Do not want to."

"I really want to~"

Li's and Eden's answers were completely different.

"Hmm~?"

Alicia took the initiative to listen to Ri's words in reverse.

"Then go to the hotel first. We can't keep everyone waiting too long." Eden nodded to the team members waiting aside. The captain immediately ordered the team members to take their equipment and walk towards the door of the hotel.

"Ellie, let's go too."

"Eden, do you provide breakfast here? I haven't eaten anything at all today~?"

"Haha...of course."

"..."

Li watched in silence as everyone left, but she did not move.

"I didn't expect Sister Alicia to really come..."

"Ugh……"

Li let out a heavy sigh.

……

Dining area.

"Hey! Sister Ellie!"

"Little Padu? I miss you so much~?"

"Sister Aili, I miss you so much~"

Alicia stood up from the chair at the dining table and hugged Pado, as if they were reunited after a long separation, even though it didn't take long.

"Ally, the chef is already making breakfast and it will be brought out later. Just wait for a while." Eden brought news to Alicia.

"Hmm, I feel like I'm starving to death~?"

After letting go of Pado, Alicia sat down again, and Pado also sat next to her, saying that since Sister Aili was here, she would have another meal with Sister Aili~

To translate, when I saw Alicia wanting to have breakfast, I couldn't help but become greedy again.

"Miss Eden..."

The team leader who came for reinforcements said something.

"Go to the lobby, where we can talk about the next mission."

Eden first asked the captain to go out, and then said to Alicia: "Ellie, I will be back soon."

"I'll wait for you here~?"

Alicia told Eden that he didn’t need to pay too much attention to himself.
