11. End of contact





After teaching me how to use the transition gate I came back to the earth.

"Ah, As expected after all"

The center of the field, the place where the spaceship was located before was now beautifully leveled, and a metal base was placed on top of it.

It is a square of 200 m side, and a circle is drawn in it.

"It's the same one back on the star, it's really stands out is it?"

I'm getting it free, so I can't complain much, but it's still conspicuous when it stands out so much.





"Although I can cover it with reflection panel, it still can be touch, so if someone get close it will be exposed "(Goat Merchant)

"That's fine"

So I can't change my minds now.

I do not know when will big brother will come to reconnaissance.

"For now. I will project nearby image for the time being. Later on, I can change it to any image you like"

"Sorry for all the trouble"

"No, It's okey.... Oh yeah ...... I will give you a communication equipment so we can get in touch in the future"

The goat merchant took out something like a ribbon.

"If you roll it on your wrist, your skin will absorb it. It can only talk to registered people, but it can call it regardless the distance. It has also perfect cover"

"Thank you... Is this expensive? Because if I can, I would like to ask for four more of that."

"Fine, it's okay"

I received five ribbons.

I will roll one on my wrist right now.

The length was automatically adjusted when am rolling it.

"It feels like am not wearing it at all, I don't really understand this"

"The data is in. You can change the registered name to however you like, to call someone you just have to call the name"

"OK."

"I still have some place to go. I still need to deliver the Divided Notice"

"Really? Sorry I didn't know. And also can I ask for one last thing?"

"Okay, what is it?"

"The Divided Notice, what is it use for?"

"It has a power to change the future of a star, if it is not too late, it is possible to lead it to a good direction."

Said by the goat merchant while winking.





After the goat merchant leave, I took out my cell phone.

The time now is around midnight.

"It was 9:00 pm when I left the house. So I guess it was about 3 hours"

I think that it was a meaningful three hours.

I slowly opened up my mobile phone and I type an email.

"Do not feel bad"

The subject of the mail is [ORDER] only.

Then I wrote [at ○ ○ station (the nearest station of our house)!]

"Okay! Mail Send!"

While watching my mobile phone while the mail is being send, I opened the door of my car.

"Speaking of which, It was daytime on the other side"(TN: "On his Star")

Jetlag.... Or perhaps.... the length of the day is different on earth.

I thought of such a thing while starting the engine of the car.

I will go home first.

Then I will take a short nap before I head to the station.

I drive the car while thinking about my college friends who said that our next meeting would be on the graduation ceremony.





Human beings all over the world. (TN: I don't get this line " 人間万事塞翁が馬。" )


I muttered so.
