Endless Silver Machine

"Recently, the atmosphere in the class has been a bit impetuous..."

During class, everyone seemed a little absent-minded, but they became active after class.

As the class monitor, Qiu Ke played no role at all. On the contrary, she was the most excited one. As soon as get out of class time came, she disappeared from the classroom.

As a result, Luo Luo worried about the future of the twin class instead of Qiu Ke.

"I heard that Shuoyue Academy will hold a large-scale event recently, probably because of this reason.

Aika happened to hear Luoluo's whisper and reminded her.

In the new semester, everyone’s seats have not been changed. The seats in the classroom are not full to begin with. Everyone chooses their own seat at will, and there will basically be no changes.

"I have also heard about the event. It is said that it will be held every year, but this year it seems to be held earlier than in previous years."

"Because this time happens to be the time for freshmen to enroll."

"We have also become seniors."

Aika propped her chin up with the back of her hand and turned her head to look out the window.

The scenery outside the window is still the same as last year, but before you know it, you have welcomed your descendants.

"There's no real sense..." Ling didn't seem particularly interested in the new students. "We don't have many opportunities to interact with first-year students."

"Speaking of which, we don't know many seniors."

To break it down, the student union, the big library, the "Discipline Team", the "Moonlight Bath"... and the seniors among them are all connected in a special common environment.

If you lose this special common environment, you will also lose this connection.

In other words, if there had been even a small deviation in past decisions, we would not have built the network of relationships we have today.

"Why does that activity have something to do with the admission of new students..."

Wei Xi, who was silent, kept tilting her head and thinking about Aika's unintentional words, but still didn't understand the connection.

"Maybe he is preparing to show the characteristics of Shimozuki Academy to the new students..."

Aika was just guessing, and he didn't know the specific content of the event.

"In that case, I can only participate in this event three times at most." Luoluo sighed regretfully, "We have already missed it once..."

"When you say that, it's really..."

Ling was also a little unwilling.

“Just enjoy it this year and next year, along with last year’s share.”

Aika still has that optimistic and casual attitude.

The short recess time passed like this, and Qiu Ke returned to the classroom with the bell ringing.

"Qiu Ke looks very busy."

"Being both class president and student council president will certainly not be easy."

Before the instructor came to the classroom, Aika and Ling looked at Qiu Ke's back and talked quietly.

They didn't notice that Qiu Ke's erect ears twitched back and forth.

Immediately afterwards, the instructor walked into the classroom and announced the start of the class.

…………

After the first class ended, Qiu Ke did not run out of the classroom, but strode towards the place where the four people gathered.

"Yo..."

Seeing Qiu Ke's uncharacteristically serious expression, Aika stiffly raised her hand and greeted her. This was the first time she talked to Qiu Ke today.

"Well……"

She rested her chin and scanned the four people's bodies one after another with a scrutinizing gaze.

"What...what happened?"

When Qiu Ke looked at her, Luo Luo looked away awkwardly.

"Okay!" Qiu Ke seemed to have made some kind of decision, "The decision is yours!"

She raised her arm in an imposing manner and then waved her finger down.

"Eh? Wha...what?"

Luo Luo didn't know what stimulated Qiu Ke. He looked around and found helplessly that Qiu Ke's target was him.

"Lolo, come and organize a committee!"

She swung her big furry tail from side to side and held Luo Luo's hands tightly.

Luoluo still looked confused.

Ling Qing came up behind Qiu Ke and gently lifted her tail.

This action made Qiu Ke reflexively let go of Luo Luo's hand and jump up high on the spot.

"What are you doing!"

It's no secret that her tail seems to be her weak point.

"You should speak more clearly. What is that organizing committee?"

"That's it, the organizing committee of the festival, no one from our class has signed up yet."

Qiu Ke doesn't seem to be stimulated when he holds his tail, but Aika still can't understand why there is such a difference.

"The festival...is that large-scale event that happens once a year that is rumored in the class..."

Wei Xi immediately connected the topics discussed during class just now.

"That's right, that's it!" Qiu Ke clapped his hands, "What's wrong? Don't you all know?"

"We transferred here in the next semester and didn't participate in that year's activities."

Luoluo helped Wei Xi explain.

"Ah, I forgot..." Qiu Ke tapped his head lightly, "It feels like we have spent a long time together."

"I only think of it at times like this..."

Wei Xi nodded, usually not paying attention to such small problems.

"Now I have to explain it from the beginning..."

There was still a short period of time before the next class, and Qiu Ke told everyone all the details of the festival.

The so-called "Moonflower Festival" is the annual feast of Shigetsutsu Academy. The event lasts three days and consists of two parts.

The first day is an ordinary school festival. Each class will hold unique activities, and private team stalls are also allowed.

The second and third days were the unique competition of Shimozuki Academy - maze exploration. Using enchantment magic to create and replicate a simulated environment, students can form teams of two to participate.

This concludes the brief explanation.

"I hurriedly took over the position of student council president when I entered school. As a result, the organization of that class was a bit chaotic."

Recalling the scene at that time, Qiu Ke wiggled his ears in embarrassment.

"But everyone is still looking forward to it. The last one was definitely a success."

Otherwise, how could such a result come about?

"Because there are many people who are more capable than me...so this time I will make good use of the organizing committee and hold the most exciting 'Moonflower Festival' before the end of my term!"

"Qiu Ke, you just said 'use'..."

Luoluo stared at Qiu Ke with suspicious eyes.

"It was a slip of the tongue, that was a slip of the tongue."

She waved her hand with a sneer and tried to fool him.

"You won't continue to be the student council president next year?"

Aika remembered she had just said "before the end of the term."

"This position should be reserved for the freshmen. I will probably take over Xiao Yaya or Xiaoye's position."

"Telua-senpai is also preparing to leave the 'Discipline Team'."

Ling suddenly mentioned the person who was not here now.

"Both you and Xiao Yaya will be very busy this semester."

Qiu Ke suddenly said this.

"Why?"

Ling couldn't think of any reason to connect himself with senior Tiruya.

"Don't you know? The seniors in the assault department are responsible for providing one-on-one guidance to the junior students. Xiao Yaya chose you when registering this year."

"Eh? What does this mean?"

Ling couldn't help but stood up and found that the classmates in the class were looking at her in surprise as she acted strangely. Ling immediately sat down with a blushing face.

"In the afternoon, you will form a team with Xiao Yaya."

"Aren't the classrooms in the assault department divided by school year?"

"Have you forgotten the practical lesson?"

"I had no idea such a thing happened..."

When she was in the "Discipline Team", Tylua-senpai never mentioned this matter once.

"That's great. I also want to form a team with Xiao Yaya, and now I'm in a team with Xiaoye."

"They are all people who know each other."

Aika glanced at Wei Xi. If she were in such an environment, it would definitely be much easier.

"How about it, Luoluo? Come and organize the committee?"

Qiu Ke waited expectantly for Luoluo's answer.

"What exactly will the organizing committee you mentioned do?"

Luoluo was still a little undecided.

"Just arrange the activities that our class will exhibit at the Moon Flower Festival, and then attend the meeting of the organizing committee hosted by the student union on time."

It doesn't sound like anything complicated.

"What do you think, brother?"

Luoluo looked at Aika with questioning eyes.

If she really wanted to do it, she wouldn't be so hesitant. Aika knows this.

"Go and give it a try, it's a rare opportunity."

"But... we still need to ask for permission from everyone in the class, right?"

"Everyone agrees."

Qiu Ke immediately answered.

"how come……"

"We came to you after discussion."

If you take this position, you will spend less time with everyone. Luoluo couldn't say such willful words. She hoped that Aika could help refuse, but he did not respond to her expectations.

"Class is over, everyone should return to their seats."

The next class was Instructor Letika's world history class. She always focused the students' attention instead of ringing the bell.

"Lolo, please think about it again."

Qiu Ke took Luo Luo's hand and shook it up and down, then hurriedly ran back to his seat.

"Qiu Ke, don't run in the classroom!"

"Yeah, sorry!"

In a common scene, Qiu Ke was scolded by Teacher Letika again.

…………

"Hey, why did you just agree to let her go?"

During class, Ling covered her face with a book and quietly scolded Aika who was sitting in front.

"Wouldn't it be nice to take this opportunity to exercise?"

"She obviously doesn't want to go!"

"I know."

"You are really able to do such a thing without changing your expression."

Aika admitted so straightforwardly that Ling had nothing to say.

"The two of you over there, can we exchange feelings after class?"

Letika looked at this side with a slightly angry smile, and the class suddenly burst into laughter.

"Feel sorry."

Aika looked at Luo Luo beside her. Although her eyes were fixed on the books on the table, her thoughts had already drifted away, and she seemed not to even notice the noise in the class.

Wei Xi, who was sitting in front of Aika, secretly looked back at Aika and Ling.

Instructor Letika started to continue the class, and Ling also listened to the class attentively.

After being told this by Ling, Aika was a little suspicious of whether his approach was too tough.

If she didn't let Luo Luo go to that committee, she would definitely do what she wanted.

There is still a chance of redemption.

…………

However, Luoluo did not leave Aika time to regret. After class, she walked straight to Qiu Ke's seat.

"I'm willing to do that."

This is an answer that satisfies everyone.

In that class, she didn't listen at all to what Instructor Letika said, and of course she wasn't thinking about how to respond.

Luoluo just looked at the book in a daze.

What brought her back to reality was the bell ringing for the end of get out of class. She acted like this without thinking about anything.

Without looking for any reason, Luoluo just put the result in front of herself first. As for the next things, she was ready to think about it later.

"Very good!"

"What makes you so happy?"

Before Teacher Letika left the classroom, Qiu Ke's voice attracted her.

"The organizing committee member of our class decided it was Luoluo."

Zuko wagged his tail and submitted a report to Teacher Letika.

"Will Luoluo do it? Then I can rest assured."

Instructor Letika smiled and put her palms together. She was also very satisfied with the result.

"Everyone, please listen carefully to Luoluo's arrangements!"

Qiu Ke announced the news to the whole class and received a strong response from everyone.

"That's good..."

Luoluo, who was supported by so many people, showed a faint smile.

"Ah, that's right." Qiu Ke, who had just stepped out of the classroom door, suddenly remembered something and turned back to the classroom. "When you are too busy, you can find someone to help you."

With an obvious hint, Qiu Ke gave Luo Luo this suggestion.

"Yeah, I'll do it!"

This suggestion made Luo Luo's expression light up instantly.

"As expected..." Qiu Ke smiled slyly, "Is this acceptable?"

"I already accepted it..."

"No, I should ask, 'So you can fully accept it, right?'"

"...I'll try my best."

Luoluo once again answered in the affirmative, only this time, she had a clear will.

"Yeah, that's a happy decision!"

Qiu Ke deliberately let Aika and the others hear his words, and ran out of the classroom when Teacher Letika wasn't paying attention.

Luoluo returned to his seat holding his chest.

Just as Aika wanted to talk to her, Xixi and Abby gathered around, so he had to give up the idea.

If Luoluo hadn't adopted such a decisive attitude just now, there might be another ending now. Aika's mood was a little complicated.

"Lolo, have you decided what we want to show?"

Abby looked anxious for answers.

"What program did our class prepare last year?"

If you can know the content of last year's display, it can be used as a reference.

"Last year..."

"You don't seem to have done anything special?"

"Because we have just entered school, first-year students are required to participate voluntarily."

"We mainly went to visit the activities of the senior class. I remember that someone took a lot of photos at that time...wait a moment..."

Xixi said and walked away, returning with a borrowed PDA in her hand.

"That's probably it."

She placed the PDA on Luoluo's table, and the other three people gathered around her table.

"It feels so lively."

The first bit of information revealed in the photo is this feeling.

Luoluo's fingers slowly slid through the subsequent photos.

"Is this person Tylua-senpai?"

Ling suddenly noticed the familiar long red hair.

"Senior Lilith is also here."

Next to Tirua-senpai stood Lilith-senpai, both of whom were wearing theatrical costumes.

"What their class is showing is drama."

"It's really hard to turn the classroom into a stage..."

"Can the display location only be in the classroom?"

Luoluo suddenly realized this problem.

“It seems that class displays are limited to indoors, but there are many attractions outside the teaching building.”

Abby found photos of the great outdoors.

"It's almost the same as that time."

Ling sighed in a low voice.

It was the first time for all four to attend the festival, but these photos reminded them of that night in Pfa Town.

In terms of atmosphere, the two are indeed surprisingly similar.

"this is?"

The photo below shows a huge fire burning.

"This is the bonfire party held on the first night of the Moon Festival. Look here."

Following the place pointed by Abby's finger, there was a figure dancing. Because the light was too dark, the picture was not very clear.

"Actually, it's just a small social gathering."

Xixi added this.

As a result, after looking at all the photos, Luoluo didn't come up with any novel ideas.
