Well hello! This is A new goal-fanfiction's new chapter. See ya the next chapter.
"You shouldn't have come with me, senpai," Natsuki said, sitting on the train seat, and looked at Sasuke sitting on the seat next to she's.
Natsuki was wearing a purple winter coat, a light purple hat, black pants, and black winter boots. She had purple gloves on her hands.
Sasuke was wearing a black winter coat, gray jeans, black winter boots, mittens knitted by Natsuki, and a scarf.
"The case interests me somewhat," Sasuke said.
"Or does it?" Natsuki asked, looking out the train window, and it was snowing outside.
"Valuable passengers, we have arrived at Gifu-eki train station in Gifu," The train's loudspeakers announced.
Natsuki, and Sasuke stood up as the train stopped, and took their bags from the top shelf above their seats, and walked out of the train.
"Are you really going to walk all the way to Nagoya? Walking from Nagoya to Gifu is about 33-34 kilometers, and it will take about two hours," Sasuke said to Natsuki, as they walked away from the train station.
"Well, if we can't get a taxi, that's the best option," Natsuki said. "She had said this to Sasuke, when they had boarded the train at Tokyo Station.
"Well, I see. A taxi ride from Gifu to Nagoya takes about 26-27 minutes, and costs about 13,000-17,000 yen. "Taxi are easy to find and a quick way to travel between these cities," Sasuke said.
Natsuki saw a taxi stop in front of she, and extended she hand towards it, making the taxi stop:
"Excuse me, but my friend, and I are going to Nagoya."
Natsuki gave the money to the taxi driver, and sat in the back seat of the taxi with Sasuke.
"You're not the first to have been there. I've driven many people there recently to see the city's isolation phenomenon," The taxi driver gave Natsuki change after Sasuke had closed the door.
"A friend of mine lives in Nagoya," Natsuki said, fastening she seatbelt like Sasuke. "The friend in question is Hikari, who disappeared from Nagoya."
"I understand that. That's a sad situation," The taxi driver said, starting to drive the taxi towards Nagoya.
Finally, the group arrived near Nagoya, and the taxi driver stopped the taxi near the city, outside of which many people had gathered.
Natsuki, and Sasuke got out of the taxi, and walked into the crowd, and saw a purple-black dome, that was partially transparent surrounding the city.
Natsuki touched the dome, but she hand did not pass through the dome, only birds could fly through it:
"Nagoya is really isolated now, and there are no people to be seen on the streets. Is Hikari the only one missing?"
"Yes, it is. "Other people in Nagoya don't stay out of their homes for long periods of time because of fear," a woman said after hearing Natsuki's words.
"Thank you," Natsuki said, as she got back into the taxi with Sasuke, gave the driver the money, and then closed the taxi door. "I'd like to go back to Gifu."
"Okay," The taxi driver drove the taxi back to the Gifu taxi stand.
After Natsuki, and Sasuke got out of the taxi, they booked rooms at a local hotel.
"Well, you've confirmed what you heard. What are you going to do now?" Sasuke asked in the hotel tea room.
"Well, I thought I'd ask the Gifu townspeople, what they think of Nagoya. Then we could take the night train back to Tokyo's Tōkyō-eki train station tomorrow," Natsuki said. "The night bus is another option. You can take the night bus from Meitetsugifu to Basuta Shinjuku. The trip takes about 7 hours and 10 minutes and costs about 2,700-9,000 yen. Shinkansen and trains are another option. Although there is no direct train service from Gifu to Tokyo, you can take a train from Gifu to Nagoya and then back to Tokyo. The journey takes about 2 hours and 26 minutes and costs about 10,000-15,000 yen. I think I'll try the first option."
"You have to have a lot of money to make those trips," Sasuke said.
"I work as a waiter at an Italian restaurant in Tokyo. They're currently undergoing an expansion, and renovation that will take a couple of months, so I'm on leave from work," Natsuki said.
