Idle Talk Heroine and Mascot

 

　Returning to my room after dinner, I was holding in my hand the inari sushi I had bought earlier at the convenience store.

　Of course, it is a meal for today's little guest, Konoha.

　When I opened the door, the gesture of the little fox that had been curled up on the bed the moment she saw what I was holding, poof, she stood up and looked at me with expectant eyes ...... It's irresistible.

 

"Look, Konoha-chan, I brought you some food!"

"! Thank you, onee-chan !!"

 

　Konoha-chan jumps on the table when I place it on the table and then thanks me.

　Uh...... I asked her to call me, but I guess she got tired of having to add "Amane" every time she called me... Before I know it, it's just onee-chan......

　...... Good, very good!!

　And using both hands dexterously, she chews the inari sushi with relish....

　Kuuh...... I'm deeply disappointed that she's a spirit and I cannot take a picture of her!

　Rarely will you find a subject that embodies the insta-image as much as this one does......

 

"It's inexcusable that the world is rife with horror-inducing ghost photos, but ...... not cute ones...... Hmm?"

 

　And I still found myself holding my smartphone in my hand to see if I could do something about it.

　To the fact that there were quite a few incoming calls in one day today.

 

"Uh...... this is......"

 

　Well, most of them are from the usual Kagu-chan and Kamu-chan, though......

　To be honest, I knew I had been receiving calls for a long time, but I left it alone because I was with Yumeji-kun most of the day ...... and there were things related to Konoha-chan.

　Because ...... frankly, I slept for half of today.

 

"Eh, EEEEEH !?"

 

　But I opened the line and ...... I couldn't help but shout out in response to the contents.

 

Kagura [Around noon today, there is witness information that you were together with Amachi]

Kamui [The story is up! Now, let's have you spit out what you've been up to today?]

 

"Ueh !? Why !? How could these guys know what happened today, or rather, a few hours ago!?"

 

　The two are especially close friends, but they live in different hometowns, so it's strange that the information would be spread on the same day and a few hours later.

　Today, I didn't even meet many people......

 

"What's wrong?"

 

　Konoha-chan, who had finished her inari sushi, climbed in next to me as I sat on the bed.

　She had seen and witnessed the smartphone itself on a mountain passerby, but she had no idea what kind of device it was.

　When I told her about the function, she was very surprised.

 

"It's amazing! You can talk to people far away with this little board!?"

"If you mean the phone, it's been around for years, though."

"......If I had such a handy thing, I could have talked with Chi-chan."

 

　Konoha-chan lowers her tail sadly.

　But I understand how you feel, but it was 30 years ago that these girls were separated.

　Not only smartphones, but never seen a cell phone ...... I wonder if there was even a pager?

　Even if you wanted to get in touch with "Chi-chan," the person you were looking for, that would be a dream that would never come true because not all people had cell phones like nowadays.

 

"So ...... what was onee-chan surprised at?"

"...... My friends get the information too fast."

 

　Having regained my composure, I explained to Konoha-chan that what had happened during the day was already known to the two of them.

　Then Konoha-chan tilted her head lightly and groaned.

 

"I don't know if this is related, but while onee-chan and Yumeji-san were communicating with okaa-sama together ...... several women were visiting the shrine."

"...... Yes?"

 

　That's my first time hearing it.

The disadvantage of using "The Dream Book" is that many dreams cannot be used without sleep.

The "Dream Pillow" is one such example: we were asleep the whole time during the communication, so we could not know what was going on around us during that time.

 

"J-Just to be clear...... Those people...... What were they like?"

 

　I have a some~what tremendously bad or embarrassing feeling about this.

　...... I mean, now that I think about it calmly, I am too embarrassed by my behavior.

　Why did I take the position of being wrapped up in him at that time?

　And that's completely from me......

　Although we are childhood friends, we were estranged until recently, ...... and I think there is a certain ...... way to close the distance between us......

　Suddenly, I find myself moving unusually aggressively, or rather......

　As I was writhing, Konoha-chan gave me the information.

 

"There are women who train with that shrine as their landmark. I'm not sure, but I remember them saying something about "wishing for the next tournament" or something like that."

 

　Wishing for the tournament ...... It's a club-like line.

　But that shrine was a local place where I felt like the locals knew ...... Then I still don't know if those people were acquaintances of mine or not.

 

"And ...... They had the same black clothes with letters on their back!"

"Letters? That is ...... Do you remember what it was written?"

 

　A weird sweat flows... If the matching clothes are jerseys and the letters on the back are the name of the school...

 

"E~tto ... it was written Ginsoku High School, Women's Basketball Club!!"

 

　It was OUT~~~~~~!!

　I can feel all the blood in my body rushing to my head!! Maybe it's on fire!!　

　Even though I have lots of friends in the girls basketball club!?

　You're telling me they saw me at such a crucial scene!?

　From the school to there, it must be at least 5 kilometers!!

　What's with all the enthusiasm for running! You're fired up for this year's Inter-High!?

 

"By the way, I didn't understand what they were saying, but they were saying "it's an accident", "it's unexpected", " exclusive news?" and they were making something shining from the same board."

 

　No ~~~~!! They're definitely taking photos ~~~~~!!

　As I was writhing, my smartphone informed me of a receiving mail.

　I looked at the screen fearfully......

 

 

Kagura [You finally opened the line! Let's hear all about it ...... The night has only just begun.]

Kamui [Various physical evidence came around from the girls basketball club. ...... I was waiting in anticipation of hearing a convincing and interesting story, you know?]

Kagura [Anyway, what happened with him on Saturday and Sunday ...... Shall we go from there?]

 

 

　They've noticed the read...... My friends (hyenas) are swarming!!

　What a blunder! I had opened it without taking any precautions!!

 

"W-W-W-What should I do ...... If I answer......"

"What's the trouble? I think it would be better if you just tell them what happened."

"Things that happened...... on Saturday and Sunday with Yumeji-kun......"

 

　What happened with him on Saturday and Sunday...... I remembered it all from the beginning............ and had to wrap my head around the fact that all of it was nothing but a feast for the hyenas.

　If I disclose, there will probably not be a bone left.

 

"No way I can say that...... right!?"
