[Alice Academy] Monkeys love to eat dates

I always thought.

Ah Zao is a person who will never laugh.

So that image left a very deep impression on me.

In front of that gentle gaze.

In front of a dark tunnel with no exit at all.

What is Ah Zao looking at?

I would like to know.

-----

Elementary Department Class B.

Narumi, who was wearing a silk lace long-sleeved shirt, was standing on the podium with a smile on his face: "Everyone, tomorrow is the preparation day for the Christmas ball that all the students in the elementary, middle and advanced departments will always send out. In order to have a happy Christmas Prom, let's cheer together!"

The students cheered: "Yeah!"

Tomoko threw the male star photobook back into the drawer. Since the bald man mentioned the photobook last time, Tomoko realized that he hadn't read it for a long time. He just revisited it and found that he was not interested in these.

Of course, it wasn't because she was devoted to A Zao or something.Simply.

Time to get in some fresh stuff.

On the contrary, this Christmas ball will attract her more, and Tomoko seems to be in high spirits.Although she has been participating in this event for 8 years (since she was 3 years old), and Alice can't help every time, basically just for tricks.But she just likes the atmosphere where everyone works together.

And that kind of atmosphere happens every time there is a big event.

Narumi on the stage continued: "As in previous years, we have a <decoration class> responsible for the decoration of the huge Christmas tree and the venue, and a <cake class> responsible for the production of huge Christmas cakes. Everyone is divided into groups regardless of age. These two class groups will start on December 12th, that is, tomorrow!"

"As for deciding the class, we will decide by drawing lots."

Mikan turned her head and asked, "Tomoko, Azao, what class do you want to join?"

Ah Zao flipped through the comics: "There is no class without you."

Mi Gan glared: "Why are you talking so annoying!"

"I want you to manage."

"you!"

Long used to bickering between the two, Tomoko didn't care: "I'd rather join the cake class, because I used to arrange classes."

Mikan is happy: "I also want to join the cake class, if only we can be together!"

Xiaoying on the side poured cold water on it and said, "It's useless for us to discuss on our own, it's the academy's decision."

So everyone was quiet.

Finally, the results are in.

Arrangement classes: Imai Ying, Masada Sumire, Xindu-kun, Fox-eye-kun, Nogi Ryuka, Bald-headed gentleman.

Cake class: Miyazaki Tomoko, Hyuga Zao, Sakura Mikan, Umemiya Anna, Ogasawara Noko, Toda Hiroshi (class leader).

PS Other passers-by students will not be listed.

December 12th, Christmas Eve.

Everyone came to the headquarters guest house where the Christmas ball is held every year.Everyone was already busy, everyone from the elementary department was dragged away as soon as they entered the gate of the guest house.

"Azao, you are in the cake class! Great, the fire in the oven is a little weird, try it with your Alice!"

"Imai, you can use the swan you invented to fly up and decorate it. It's really a great help. There are really limited people who can fly up there!"

"Toda, there is a problem with the Christmas tree. Because it's too high, there are many people with trembling feet. It's really troublesome. Can you use hallucinations to make them not afraid!"

"Liujia, can you use your Alice to ask the giant chicken to help, it will be faster!"

"Misaki, I have a lot of things to do here, use your □□Alice to help!"

"Ayi, I'm going to move this chocolate tower over there. Use your shadow Alice to help me watch it. It won't be good if it falls!"

. . .

Seeing that the partners were taken away one by one, only herself and Tomoko were left unclaimed, Mikan squatted on the ground sadly and drew a circle: "Why didn't anyone come to us."

Too.One is the unlucky Alice, and the other is the nullified Alice, what can I do.

Tomoko squatted down with a hippie smile and said, "That's not bad, can we be lazy hahaha?"

Mikan had no choice but to say, "Tomoko, you really are, you can't be lazy, everyone is working hard now!"

Azao turned her head frequently to look for Sophon, but saw her and Mikan squatting on the side doing nothing, so she walked over.

"Well, well, then why are we still squatting here? If no one comes looking for us, we can find something to do on our own. It's not interesting to squat blindly, right?"

Mikan looked at Tomoko with sparkling eyes, and seemed to understand something: "Tomoko, did you mean...?"

Before he finished speaking, Tomoko picked up the tangerine, looked left and right, saw slices of flat sponge cakes on the ground not far away, and hurried over: "I think we have found a job!"

"Hey sweetheart, is there anything I can help you with?"

Ah Zao's walking steps stopped.

The girl who was preparing a large bowl of cream with the power of Alice smiled in surprise: "I know you, it's Tomoko Miyazaki, right? We just don't have enough manpower here, can you help spread the cream on the sponge cake?"

"You can just call me Tomoko, just put a layer of cream on it?"

"Yes, but because the freshly baked sponge cake is still very hot, if you put the cream directly on it, it will melt, so you must wait for the sponge cake to cool before you can spread the cream. But we have no time, so in order To prevent mold, you can go over there and cool the top and bottom of the sponge cake as soon as possible, and then turn the sponge cake over when the time is almost up. Can it be done?"

"no problem!"

Tomoko and Mikan put on their aprons and hats and joined the army of flip-flops.

"Azao, what are you still doing here, I need your help over there!"

Azao, who was silently staring at Tomoko, was dragged away again.

Really busy.

Mikan and Tomoko grabbed one side of the sponge cake to cool off.Mikan was a little shy: "Tomoko, you are so amazing that you can do what you find yourself. I thought just now that the two of us, Alice, shouldn't be able to help you at all."

"It's nothing, in fact, you don't need to care so much. If you want to help, just ask. Don't be afraid of being rejected. The more you are afraid, the harder it is to take that step. Just like now, haven't we succeeded?"

Tomoko winked mischievously at Mikan: "Sometimes you will find that if you don't care about other people's opinions and have a thicker skin, you will live happier!"

"En!" After Mikan nodded vigorously, she suddenly looked behind Tomoko: "That girl?"

Tomoko turned around and saw a girl with her hair covering her face talking to a girl holding a box.And the girl holding the box seemed to be a little afraid of her, and she stepped back and said, "Are you Ibaraki-san? Although it's a bit embarrassing to say that, it seems that there is no place that needs your help now, and everyone has enough people... I still have things to do, so I'm leaving now!"

Mikan said kindly: "She doesn't seem to be able to find anything to do, should we ask her to help?"

Ibaraki-san?

Rose Ibaraki?

The ice princess of the dangerous ability system?

Tomoko asked curiously, "Are you Ibaraki Rose?"

Ibaraki Rose trembled all over.

Tomoko understood, it seemed that it should be her.It is rumored that she has a cold personality (although Tomoko likes challenges) and is not easy to get along with, and she will freeze people up at every turn, but why does she look pitiful now: "We are a bit busy here, can you come to help?"

Ibaraki Rose paused for a moment, then nodded vigorously and quickly, as if afraid of Tomoko's repentance: "I...I am willing!"

Worried that she would bend her neck, Tomoko pulled her over directly: "Okay, let's get to know each other. My name is Tomoko Miyazaki, and she is a new classmate."

Mikan shouted: "It's Sakura Mikan!"

Ibaraki Wild Rose lowered her head: "You... Hello, I am Ibaraki... Wild Rose..."

Not caring about the other party's weirdness, Mikan brought a set of apron and hat: "Put it on, but because you are cooking food, so your hair can't be like this, let's tie it up."

"...Thanks."

After Ibaraki Ye Qianwei took it, she tied up her hair while thinking.

That's fine, maybe now that my hairstyle has changed, others won't recognize me.

Tomoko and Mikan were shocked when they saw her exposed face.

Big watery eyes, slightly flushed (shy) cheeks, small and delicate nose and small cherry mouth.With that dark purple shoulder-length curly hair, she is such a cute girl!

It seems that the rumors are really unbelievable. They say that they have a cold personality and are not easy to get along with, and they freeze people up at every turn.Although this shy character may be faked now, Tomoko still believes in her own judgment.

. . .Those rumors may have been deliberately spread by someone so that Rose Ibaraki could not make friends.As for the reason, of course, it is convenient to control.

Make yourself everything to her.

This kind of bad idea must be that person.

A black figure appeared in Sophon's mind.

Pelsona.

And when Tomoko was beating Paisona in his head like a sandbag, Mikan had already chatted with Ibaraki Yemei: "So you are in the first grade of the middle school, sorry, I didn't know you were a student." sister."

"No...it's okay, don't call me senior."

"Then what is your Alice?"

"...Ice Alice."

Mikan excitedly said: "It's amazing, so it can also make the air cooler?!

"Ah...it should be...okay?"

Haven't tried it yet.

"So it's okay to cool the sponge cake at once? I want to spread the cream quickly!"

Looking at the expectant eyes of the other party, Ibaraki Ye Qiangwei hesitated and said: "Let me try..."

Rose Ibaraki squatted in front of a large piece of sponge cake, and stretched out her hands nervously.

Her control over her Alice has always been weak, but she doesn't want to disappoint Mikan.

Hope it works.

Ibaraki Ye Qiangwei was about to activate Alice, when suddenly flames burst out in front of her eyes, causing her to scream and sit down on the ground: "Ah------!"

The scream brought Tomoko back from his thoughts.A person stood beside her: "A Zao?"

"En." Ah Zao responded softly, and then looked coldly at Ibaraki Ye Qiangwei who was sitting on the ground at a loss: "What is your purpose for approaching them?"

Wild Rose glanced at Tomoko uneasily: "I...don't have any bad intentions. I'm just...just..."

Wondering what your light looks like.

"Don't approach them any more, go back to your companions!"
