Chapter 198.2

Nostalgic Feelings and Flotsam

Ten minutes on the road later .

Even though Mira was trembling completely silently in fear, Scarlet and I were filled with nostalgia .

After all, it has been six years since I last saw a car, and it has been twenty years for Scarlet .

Well, the scenery outside was forest on both sides and didn’t change whatsoever, though .

By the way, there were no problems with the drawing speed of the Contact Lenses at about 30 km/h .

Reki-kun’s movement speed can sometimes even exceed the 100 km/h mark .

The Contact Lenses were made with that in mind, so there’s no chance of the drawing speed dropping at this level .

However, since it was only possible to test its performance at certain places of the mansion, it seems that moving through an unknown area at above-average speeds causes a little burden on the data collection of the surrounding environment .

Let’s try to improve this aspect when we have free time . Although it would be meaningless once we return to the mansion .

Over there, it’s unlikely that we would be moving through unknown areas at high speeds . I wonder if there would be an opportunity to even take a step into an unknown area to begin with .

It’s possible to collect data in a winder range by expanding the scope of the Contact Lenses . There’s a condition that you have to be nearly staying still, though .

“T, that’s... Lily Ojousama . ”

“Nu?”

While thinking about Contact Lenses improvements, Scarlet called out to me in surprise .

When I turned towards the direction she was facing, the scope of data collection temporarily narrowed down to the surrounding range .

“... Eh?”

When the Contact Lenses drew a magnified picture from the obtained data for me, I let out a voice of surprise just like Scarlet .

Still, my expression didn’t change, which was most likely the result of my years-long sleeping mimetic muscles . No, I don’t think that’s a good thing .

“Hm? Oh, that’s a flotsam, Scarlet . ”

“Flotsam, you said?”

“Yep, flotsam . ”

“Kuti, what’s flotsam?”

“N~... they are thingies that suddenly appear from who knows where . There are some useful items among them, but most of them are unusable . Ah, this car too . There are quite a lot of things like this, but the majority is broken and they can even explode sometimes, so it’s dangerous to approach them~”

Hearing Kuti’s nonchalant explanation, Scarlet and I exchanged glances .

Because who would have thought that the car just “Suddenly appeared . ”

And one conjecture began to take a shape within our minds .

“Ojousama, do you recall the disappearance incident that I spoke to you about before?”

“Of course, rather... that’s exactly what this is, no?”

“Yes . If so, then this comes from the very first disappearance incident... the radio tower . ”

The disappearance incident .

There were apparently frequent cases of the sudden disappearance of objects all around the world during my past life .

The reason I say “apparently” is because I happened to be already dead by that time .

Additionally, it appears to be a relatively familiar event to Scarlet who passed away later than me .

One of the incidents happened in the area where Scarlet lived .

Moreover, that area is said to be the place where the first disappearance incident occurred .

The first thing that disappeared was a large radio tower .

By the time I died, there were taller buildings than this radio tower, but it still was an extremely popular sightseeing spot .

That very tower was now projected on the Contact Lenses .

I can’t, unfortunately, see the characteristic white-red coloring, but it’s still hard to forget the distinctive shape that is so familiar to me . (Tokyo Tower)

The radio tower projected on my Contact Lenses was slanted to the side, and only half of it stood above the forest .

I confirmed where the observation floor was located .

When the data collection was finished and I took a look at the virtual drawing, I saw that the observation floor was severely deteriorated .

I also caught sight of a site of what seemed to be an explosion .

Just what happened here...

“Scarlet, I transmitted the collected data to the Kutipad, so take a look . ”

“Yes, Ojousama . Thank you very much . ”

The 3D drawing virtually constructed from the data I obtained can be viewed on the Kutipad .

Rather than thinking alone, you can hear more opinions by sharing the data with others, and that’s why we have established the Kutipad sharing at its early stages .

According to the data from the surroundings, the fairy town is nowhere in sight just yet .

There seems to be more time to think .
