Orphan Adventure in the Blue Sea
Chapter 21 New riddles

I turned on the recording and played the recording that Gisele gave me. The music reminded me of holding Gisele, so I panicked and replaced it to another song.

　Unknowingly, my face turned red. `Raw skin Giselle-tan.'' Johan said and instinctively covered her mouth with a hand.

　Instead, I changed my mind and prepared for another four-day duel.

"Well, I guess it's okay as usual...I'll take Diethelm with me as a witness..."

　Johannes knew how to slash at each other with real swords, and even if he were to determine the real sword rather than the shining sword, he was sure the other party would lend it to him.

　At around 05:00 p.m., Johan, listening to the recording, stopped him, got up from the sofa, and decided to pick Gisele up from church school.

　We arrived at the church for about 30 minutes.

　As usual, Gisele continued to pray to God from church even after church school ended.

“Ji-ze-ru-tan.”.

　soft Johan said.

"Hey," she bowed to her two sisters.

“Halo, Johannes,” greet the new sisters with a smile.

`J-Giselle...?'' Johan called out to Giselle who was praying.

　Giselle looked up and smiled.

"My sister, I prayed to my mother for my sister to become an adult, and then I felt like seeing my mother happy!! This must be true!"

　Giselle said so happily that Johan endured his grief and smiled.

"Yes Gisele-tan, I'm sure it's here! Well, it's already night. Come home," take me.

　On the way home, Johan takes a shower while Gisele works on school PR.

　After that, the two of them made dinner and sat down at the table together.

　After eating, Gisele was cleaning, and Johannes said,

`Giselle-tan, you can clean it later, but I want to talk about the missing chain.

"Yes, brother..."

　So the two started talking.

"Giselle-chan, first of all, I want you to tell me. I have managed to solve two mysterious questions from the missing chain, but when did the first question start to appear the first time I pressed the button? Do you remember? ”

Hmm, said Gisele.

　After which, Gisele thought for a moment,

“Maybe no wonder Onii-chan doesn't know or remember. You know, when I first lived in the orphanage with Onii-chan, even though I pressed the button on the back, nothing lit up, and no lights. Do you remember?”

　“Ya, yes,” Johannes nodded.

“So...” Further Gisele.

"Is that so." said Johan a little surprised.

　The two began living together when Johan was 12 and Gisele was 7.

`Giselle, now that you have solved both of those puzzles, why don't you try again those missing chain buttons?'' Giselle said, `Then, brother, point to the wall.'' So please turn off the lights.'' So Johan turned off the candles and the colored glass lights. This is the living room on the second floor.

“Let's go, Brother,” take Gisele with you while pressing the button on the back. Light is emitted from constellation-shaped points on the surface of the missing chain, and a message appears on the white wall.

“Giselle-tan, this...!!” johann was shocked.

　You two look at each other. “This is a new message!!” they both said to each other.

"Okay, this is a new message! I will finish it soon!! Um, first of all, not 092? This may be a hint that it is 'Okuni', that is, the name of his country. Next , he desperately said 'Tempel'. I wonder about the letters...Hmm, for the numbers, should I use the ones from the previous puzzle to sing the national anthem?`Ke'' it's `ge '' from `geni''...??'' Johannes muttered to himself. Gisele laughed out loud and said,

`Kakakak, this calculation is veiled, '' he said.

"Eh?? This isn't a ticket from Gisele-tan for me, is it?"

"So, stop joking around. You guys just count. If you apply the specified numbers on na, ton, and toke, then complete the equation, de \= 0, sa \= 8, a. \= 9, i \= 2. So, 092 means..."

“Yes for Christ, huh?” Johannes said.

"Oh, so. As I thought, Giselle-chan did quite well in church school."

“i take my classes seriously,” said Gisele.

“True,” Johannes said with a funny laugh.

`By the way, to get to the main topic, Giselle-chan... Daai, in other words, a meeting. In other words, if you follow three messages in order, when you become an adult, continue a journey, aim for the sea, and an encounter will occur... To me, it means... Ithinkso. Giselle, what do you think?”

"Brother, I think that's what you mean, too. It's not like a message from your mother, but if it's a message from a great star god, I think it's worth following."

if things are not going well, the worst thing you can do is go back to Holland, Johannes said.

(My life right now is not so bad...To be honest, I was not dissatisfied.but the number of messages from the Lost Chain had doubled in a short time...It's a little about. )

"Giselle-tan, I feel a little better!! How's it going? Will you sleep with me again today?"

"uh……?"

``You mean `sleep'' in the sense of `two lovers''?'' johan said with a big smile.

"That's it.." said Gisele, her cheeks were flushed, blushing,

`Then it is decided!'' he said, and that night, their sweet night was over.

　The next morning, while the two were having breakfast, Johannes met Aunt Adele on the first floor and said, `Giselle, please take a day off work today, because I am not feeling well...'' But. ..

`Onii-chan...I was in an exaggerated state last night, and my magic power was reduced by half, and in comparison, onii-chan shone because just like she had just undergone treatment.. .'' giselle said as she said with a pale face.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Gisele-tan! I'm not on duty today either, but I'll take some money out of my bank account and give you something nice. Don't worry, Giselle-tan! "

"Eh, yes, sister..."
