Ishida looked at his phone and saw an email from him, "Come to the usual bridge?" He thought for a bit and sighed. He wondered whether there was any connection to the earlier incidents. He looked at the ceiling and wondered what should he do right now.---
Yuuki went back to his home after he had delivered Shouko back, "I"m back."
"Yuuki," Makoto said when she saw him.
"What"s wrong?" Yuuki looked at her with a confused expression since it was quite rare for her to be the one who greeted him.
Makoto pouted, "Did you forget that you"re going to help me with the quest?"
"Oh," Yuuki suddenly remembered that he had promised to help her, "That"s right, I"m sorry, when are we going?"
"Right now," Makoto said.
"..."
"Right now?" Yuuki asked.
"Yes, is it okay?" Makoto asked with a hopeful expression.
"..."
Yuuki looked at her and nodded, "Alright, let"s go now."
"Good, I will be the one who drives the motorcycle, is that okay?" Makoto asked.
"Sure," Yuuki nodded and didn"t really mind.
"Let"s go!" Makoto said.

Makoto rode his motorcycle and Yuuki was sitting behind her. She suddenly felt his hands wrapped around her waist, "W - Why are you hugging me?" She was embarra.s.sed right now.
"Of course, it"s dangerous if I"m not holding you," Yuuki said.
"...."
Makoto sighed and was wondering whether she would be eaten by him later. She started to get nervous and it made her drive the motorcycle very awkward.
The motorcycle moved strangely to speed up and slow down suddenly making him very uncomfortable and made the distance between the two of them became very close. He was wondering whether he should change and become the driver.
"D - Don"t eat me!" Makoto said while closing her eyes.
"????"
Yuuki was confused by her. He looked at her closed her eyes and couldn"t help but became scared, "Oi, Makoto! Don"t close your eyes! Look at the front! Front!"

Yuuki and Makoto had arrived in the shopping district and they were very tired right even though their reason to be tired was very different from each other.
"Uegh..." Makoto was near the lighting pole and felt very dizzy right now.
Yuuki caressed her back to make her comfortable, "Are you alright?"
"Hmm," Makoto nodded and wiped her mouth. She took a deep breath and thought that she was thinking too much.
Yuuki looked at the shopping district in front of him and every shop was closed since it was midnight.
"This place is very deserted," Makoto said.
"Yeah," Yuuki nodded. He had only heard that something had stolen a lot of things from every shop in this shopping district every midnight. From the report, he also learned that there was also a strange noise at midnight but they couldn"t find the source of that noise. He thought that it was probably the work of puggles.
Puggles is an animal from the supernatural world that has a shape that is similar to a combination of both mole, rabbit and platypus.
Yuuki felt a bit strange but this creature was a bit cute with ears similar to a rabbit, body of mole, and face of a platypus but it had a habit of stealing something shiny and food from its surroundings. He was a bit strange for such a creature to suddenly appear in this area since usually, it was living in the forest or somewhere that was far away from the human.
"I"m ready!" Makoto said and brought a net to catch the puggles.
"..."
"Is it really okay to only use that net?" Yuuki asked.
"Of course!" Makoto nodded and said, "This isn"t a normal net! It has been enhanced by magic!"
"Enhanced by magic?" Yuuki didn"t think that it would help her to catch the puggles. He knew that this net probably enhanced to make it stronger but to catch that creature she needed to do it using her own power. He was wondering why his cousin was a klutz.
"Let"s go!" Makoto said and raised her hand.
"Ohh!!" Yuuki also raised his hand and said, "Plus Ultra!"
"Plus Ultra!" Makoto said and asked, "What is Plus Ultra?"
"..."
Yuuki was wondering whether his cousin was really alright and started to explain the meaning of plus ultra.

Yuuki and Makoto were walking around the shopping district.
The size of this shopping district is quite large since there are a lot of shops in this area. It is also one of the most popular places in this city since the place is cheap and there is a lot of variety of things are sold in this place.
Yuuki had also come to this place before with Rossweisse before since that girl wanted to buy something cheap. He was wondering what that girl had that kind of personality but it was quite cute. He sighed and wondered when that girl would go back. He knew that she would go back a week later but he had missed her already. He shook his head and looked at Makoto who was walking with a serious expression.
Makoto was a bit nervous since it was her first quest in the witch organization. She didn"t want to fail and wanted to do a good job. She held her net tightly while looking from her right and left for every second.
"....."
"Don"t be that nervous," Yuuki couldn"t help but say.
"But... This is my first quest!" Makoto said.
"There is me here, let"s search for that thing slowly," Yuuki said.
"Alright," Makoto nodded.
They walked around slowly to search the puggles since that creature wasn"t that big it was quite hard to search it.

Yuuki looked at the shaved ice cream shop and thought that he should visit this place when it opened since it was quite hot in the summer and he wanted to eat it, "Let"s visit this place two days later."
"Oh, ice cream!" Makoto said and noticed something strange on the side of this shop. She looked at a strange creature that was happily eating ice cream, "Yuuki, is that?"
"Hmm?" Yuuki looked and saw the puggles there eating an ice cream happily.
"....."
Yuuki and Makoto looked at each other and nodded. They need to catch this guy now.
