Chapter 6 The Confused Companion
update icon Updated at 2025/3/16 4:10:12

The first thing is ...... Looking for my companions?

......

'World', are you kidding me? I've gone through most of the school, but I haven't seen a single person who is still awake, huh?

And followed by waking them up.

Do you think I haven't tried?

I didn't dare to experiment on Yaling and the girls. After a few shakes, they didn’t wake up, so I went to the corridor and grabbed an unknown unlucky guy and splashed cold water on him several times.

But he still did not wake up.

Even using the magic of lifting the unconsciousness, he is still also not awake.

In other words, ordinary people are useless in this situation, it seems that it only applies on specific people.

What are you kidding, there are so many people in this school, do I have to splash water on them all at once? Or do I have to use magic on them one by one?

It will be better if there are some hints.

......

No, isn't there another strange skill I haven't tried?

Quickly opened my skill list and turned to the last page. It is the skill with the same name that came with the title of famous detective before, its effect is gaining the ability to see the hidden clues within 10 meters after using it.

After I just clicked the skill icon, and the hint was actually not coming from the surrounding items, but from my menu!

When I opened it, my friends list was actually flashing.

Is this a hint?

When I opened the friends list, I realized that the way it was displayed was completely different from before.

At the top there are Aliyah, Dale and Yuin who are also from the other world like me, and at the bottom there are the original inhabitants of this world. The icons of us from the other world have an additional symbol that looks like a mail than the icons below ...... Does that mean this is the communication device mentioned before?

It looks nice, isn’t? This is similar to the online games, where players can directly communicate with each other.

But ......

is this of any use now?

I tried to press that button, but it said the function was not turned on.

What kind of hint is this...... eh?

Taking a closer inspection, it seems that one person's name is different from the others.

Aliyah.

A human shape icon behind her name is actually green, while everyone else's is gray.

Is that a hint? But the human shape icon seems to be there all the time, and I just didn't pay any attention to it before.

Is this actually a function button?

I clicked on it, and suddenly there was a green arrow on my mini-map!

Distance from your target: 1128 meters

And there is a friendly reminder below, it is like a provocation saying 'see, this is where you want to go, and there is no other choice but to go '......

Damn, but it is telling the truth, after all, after thinking of all the information before, my only conclusion is 'Aliyah is in the direction of the green arrow'

“It's really an easy to understand and amiable hint.”, I think, then I directly used the acceleration to run towards my target.

......

Hey, hey, hey, as a young girl, what is that sleeping posture?

When I arrived at my destination, I saw a white-haired girl lying on the dining table with a fork with pasta on its top in her hand.

Well, I can understand that she was unconscious while eating, but at least ...... don't bury your face in the pasta.

Her white ponytail, which is obviously very shiny, is now covered with tomato sauce, and it seems to have fused with the pasta.

And even in this situation, she also sleeps quite well, how can this guy actually breathe? With her ears?

After all, according to this girl's character, if she wakes up and finds herself like this and I have seen it, she will definitely beat me to death, so it's better to help her clean up before she wakes up.

So, I just pull her up from the table and put her body on the chair.

Her face is really full of sauce, but this guy is still sleeping quite well, and now she even licks the sauce around her mouth, and then giggles from time to time.

What the hell is this guy dreaming about?

Is it possible that this guy is actually a fool?

Anyway, let me just clean up the sauce on her face.

I grabbed a napkin from the table and cleaned the sauce off her face.

But just after wiping her face and then preparing to wipe her hair, suddenly my hand was grabbed by someone!

"You bastard, what are you doing to me?"

"...... Good morning?"

"Is this the time to say good morning!?"

After saying that, she instantly tried to kick me off, fortunately I was prepared and entered the combat mode directly then took a step backward.

How ridiculous, I am now level 18, even if without my occupation bonus, there is no reason to be hit by a level 14 double swordsman.

"It's obviously in the morning now, and you don't even try to find out who slept directly on the spaghetti last night before you say something."

"Ha? Who would sleep on spaghetti ............"

Before she could finish her words, her eyes fell on the table next to her.

Probably because she had thought of something, her speaking speed slowly decreased, and then her face was as red as a persimmon.

It seems that she has remembered something.

She raised her hand and touched her face and then her hair.

"Ahhh ...... that’s why I have a dream that the whole world was full of spaghetti ...... Does that mean ...... I slept directly on it ...... all night ah ...... ah ah ah ah."

"Well, hurry up and clean your hair as well, a girl’s hair is her life."

After saying that, I handed her the rest of the napkin.

She looked at me for a while, and took the napkin with a blush face and started cleaning up.

"How did you know that?"

"Hmm?"

"What you said before."

" a girl’s hair is her life?"

"Yes. ...... It sounds like a top ten sentence in a playboy's special statement."

"Hey hey, obviously it's my good intention to remind you, but what you said sounds like I am with bad intention."

"Isn't that so? Who will specifically run over and help me ...... help me wipe my face or something else ...... you ...... you didn't touch other places, right?"

"Where else can I touch, obviously it is flat ...... hey hey hey, your sword is on fire! I am just kidding!"

"Idiot!"

She ran directly into the restaurant, and then the sound of water came from inside.

Three minutes later, Aliyah came out from inside, the top of her ponytail still stained with water.

"You can't wipe it off with paper! Idiot!"

"Yes, yes, yes ...... By the way, that sentence,"

"Hmm?"

"I also can't remember who said it to me, obviously I remembered what he said, but forgot who said that, haha."

"...... Are you like that too?"

Aliyah suddenly said.

"Eh?"

"Can you ...... remember the names of any relatives, friends, or important people?"

Suddenly a chill rose from behind me after hearing her words.

Names ......

How did I not notice this.

Although all the other memories are incomplete, but at least there is still a bit of vague memory in me.

But ...... only the names are lost.

"Can’t remember any names ......"

'World' ...... What exactly did you take from us?

"Really? ...... haha, don't show such an expression. By the way, now you quickly explain the current situation to me, is that why you came to the restaurant to wake me up? The situation around seems not so simple, right?"

"Eh, that's right, it's useless to dwell on it now. But I did specifically come here to wake you up."

Searching companions complete, mission information sharing begins.

......

Sharing complete.

Mission continues.

Aliyah seems surprised for a moment, then nods in the air a few times.

After a moment, her expression began to look serious.

"That looks like fun."

"You think so too?"

"Very well, then let's get it done!"
