Chapter 729 The long-awaited fireworks

In the human world.

On the streets paved with stone slabs, water masses gathered, reflecting the crowds of people coming and going under the light of the lights.

Everyone in the village received the news that tonight's summer festival will be held as scheduled.

But the person who spread the news was nowhere to be seen.

Only a dark shadow disappeared in a flash, and a newspaper was left at the door.

Even so, everyone came to the center of the street.

The moon is hidden, and there are thick black clouds in the sky.

Lanterns were hung on both sides of the street, and the light was still slightly dim. Slowly, people gathered, crowded, and looked at the sky somewhere.

"I heard that the fireworks display will be held as scheduled?"

"That's what the newspapers said."

"It's not possible in this kind of weather. The fireworks we prepared were all wet by the heavy rain."

"There seems to be some special method, let's take a look first."

More and more people were gathering in the street, and Kurumi Tokisaki and Sora also came nearby.

Reimu Hakurei said she was a little tired, so she lay down on the tatami. After Qiong and Kurumi Tokisaki left the shrine, the red and white miko got up again by holding on to the floor, and slowly walked to the steps under the torii gate, silently Looking at the black sky in the distance from here.

"I thought you wouldn't come." Kurumi Tokisaki looked at Qiong with a smile.

In Tokisaki Kurumi's impression, Qiong has a relatively quiet personality.

Wearing a pure white dress, Qiong stood under the dark night, without turning her head to look at her companions beside her, and said, "If I don't come over, Reimu won't be able to calm down."

"Ah, is that right?"

Tokisaki Kurumi was a little surprised. She heard Black Cat and Neet Ji say that Ye You was the only one in Qiong's world.

Kurumi Tokisaki felt the same way. Although the contact was brief, he could see that Sora's character was a bit extreme. Just like him, he would not hesitate to make things that he believed in even if he was the enemy of the world.

However, it turns out that this girl also cares about other people's feelings.

"Reimu..." Qiong said, "She is very lonely today."

Qiong saw the shadow of his former self in her.

"I never thought you had such a side."

Qiong turned her head, her silver hair swaying in the night wind. She tilted her head, her expression confused, and said seriously: "Why do you look like you know me very well?"

Qiong's expression was cute and innocent, but he deliberately let people see that it was just a pretense, just to give his words a stronger attack.

Tokisaki Kurumi disagreed and chuckled: "The relationship between people is inherently very delicate. Some clumsy guys still don't understand each other even after getting along for several years. And some people, even if they get along briefly, don't understand each other. I can roughly tell what she’s thinking.”

"oh."

Qiong responded. She couldn't say she liked Tokisaki Kurumi, nor could she say she disliked him.

The short conversation ended with this.

"coming!"

There were noisy sounds from the crowd. Following everyone's gaze, under the bright night washed by the rain, a black shadow flew from a distance.

"Is she the one who made the special fireworks mentioned in the newspaper?"

"Really, no problem?"

"It's definitely no problem!" Xiaoling Moto looked at the sky and said.

"Ah, ah, ah." Shemei Maruwen fell from the sky on one foot with the camera in hand and stood firm, "There are so many people. Sure enough, the job of spreading news should be left to honest reporters like me. , the number of people gathered here is a reflection of my character.”

Izayoi Sakuya put her hands elegantly in front of the ruffled skirt of the maid uniform, "I see, you have a hand in this matter. No wonder the news spread so quickly."

"For things like festivals, I think the more people, the better." Shemeimaru Fumi pointed his camera at the sky, "Besides, it's interesting, isn't it? News should be interesting!"

Human beings in the world are not surprised by this guy with black wings spread behind his back.

Although everyone is still afraid of monsters, because Shemei Maruwen often comes in and out of the village, does not pose a threat to everyone, and occasionally provides entertainment news, over time, they have accepted her existence.

"Okay, it's almost 9 o'clock."

"Just waiting for her to put the finishing touch."

The black sky started to drizzle again.

Marisa was flying on a broomstick under the low clouds, holding the front end tightly with both hands as if she was afraid of falling.

She originally gained the courage from Hakurei Shrine, but when she saw the dark crowd in the human world from the sky, Marisa became uneasy again.

I'm a little scared, I've never responded to so many people's expectations.

Why does it become like this?

He obviously just wanted Reimu to be happy alone.

Why is everyone here?

This was completely different from what she had imagined.

But the matter has come to this, and it can only be done.

Taking a deep breath, he took out the magic stone from the bag.

Infused with magic.

Be full! Be full!

He can only desperately input magic power into the magic stone. This is the only thing the black and white magician can do now.

Until my fingers tremble.

Then, he threw it forward with force, and the four magic stones drew beautiful trajectories in the air.

Please, I must succeed!

The girl is praying...

"..."

"..."

Under the thin curtain of rain, everyone looked up at the black sky.

Benju Xiaoling held an oil-paper umbrella and stared unblinkingly at the place where the fireworks were supposed to rise. However, she seemed to be hallucinating.

"Um...Miss Wen, have you seen anything that seems to be glowing?"

Shemei Maruwen kept holding the camera, pointing it at the sky,

"Well, my camera didn't capture anything."

Sakuya Izayoi and Suzu Moto were under the same oil-paper umbrella. She just watched quietly, "Well, wait honestly, something may have happened over Marisa's side."

As the magic stone dimmed in the sky, Marisa's heart became heavy.

Sure enough, will this still happen?

"Damn it!"

This time she took out a magic stone and said, "Do it again!"

Desperately and crazily infusing magic power.

Throwing down again into the black sky.

However, the only response she received was the silent falling of the magic stone.

The rain gradually became hazy again, and the crowd below became a little anxious.

"Haven't it started yet?"

"It's past nine o'clock."

"Well, it's been more than a quarter of an hour. It came really slowly."

"...Although I don't feel like saying it directly, that...couldn't it be a failure."

"It's possible. After all, it's still very difficult for a person."

"Obviously as long as you tell us beforehand, we can help."

Shemei Maruwen's hand has been holding the camera since just now, and has never put it down for a moment. Her lens is always aimed at the brilliance that may be fleeting,

"You can go back if you want. However, I will wait until the end."

Maybe he failed, or maybe he was too pushy. Although everyone complained, the soles of their feet seemed to have roots, rooted in place, and no one left.
