As the finish line sounded, Yunyi stepped out of the player tunnel. His previous position wasn't ideal, preventing him from seeing the score displayed on the big screen.
As soon as he stepped out, he saw Mayumi Saegusa.
" Mayumi?"
Upon seeing Yunyi, Mayumi Saegusa became even more excited. She jumped up a few steps away from Yunyi Yunyi threw herself into his arms.
" Yunyi-kun, I did it! I did it!"
Hearing her words, Yunyi smiled and ruffled Mayumi Saegusa's hair. He no longer needed to look at the score on the screen, because the fairy's emotions had already told him the answer.
This scene on the sidelines was witnessed by some spectators in the stands. Because the final was between Mayumi Saegusa and the contestant from Third High School, the stands were filled with students from those two high schools.
The scene of Mayumi Saegusa and Yunyi embracing was still somewhat shocking for the students of First High School, but it evoked feelings of "Ah, they really hugged." or "I knew it would happen." But for the students of the other high schools, it was practically a follow-up to the big news that broke during the exchange meeting!
Yunyi and Mayumi Saegusa no Mayumi didn't get carried away, knowing that showing affection here wasn't a good thing, so they only hugged briefly before returning to the contestants' tunnel. Meanwhile, the contestant from Third High School was still kneeling on the stage. Looking at the score of 24:100 on the big screen, all her pre-match mental preparation collapsed.
"How terrifying is 'ElfenSniper'..."
Inside the passageway.
"Congratulations, Mayumi your third consecutive victory in the Speed Shooting event! You've truly cemented your title of 'Elfen Sniper' now," Yunyi congratulated Mayumi Saegusa victory.
" Yunyi-kun, don't you know? I personally don't like that title." Mayumi Saegusa wrinkled her little face and complained unhappily.
"Why don't you like it?" Yunyi looked at Mayumi Saegusa no Mayumi, puzzled. "Isn't it very suitable for you?"
" Yunyi-kun, do you really like this title?" Mayumi Saegusa asked in return.
Yunyi smiled and shook his head.
"Titles don't mean much to me, so it's not a matter of liking or disliking them. I just think this title suits you well, and if you don't like it, I won't call you that anymore."
Hearing Yunyi's words, Mayumi Saegusa lowered her head slightly, as if deep in thought. After a moment, she looked up at Yunyi and said, "Since Yunyi-kun think it suits me well, then I'll reluctantly accept it. Hmph~"
Looking at her mischievous appearance, Yunyi muttered helplessly, "What a little devil."
With the Speed Shooting competition over, all of today's events have concluded.
The second day's schedule included " Crowd Ball," the women's " Icicle Destruction," and the Battle Board Race."
When Mayumi Saegusa Mari Watanabe inviting her to gather in her room for a celebration, she invited Yunyi. However, Yunyi declined to join her, as he also had a match to play the next day and would rather use this time to meet with Tatsuya Shiba to check on the CAD adjustments.
"Alright then, Yunyi-kun, good luck in tomorrow's match!" Mayumi Saegusa raised her little fist to cheer on Yunyi.
Yunyi smiled. He really didn't think he needed to use much fuel to deal with a group of high school students.
After parting ways with Mayumi Saegusa, Yunyi went to Tatsuya Shiba's room.
Tatsuya Shiba was slightly surprised to see Yunyi. He asked in confusion, " Yunyi, didn't you go to celebrate with President Saegusa?"
"No, it's all girls together, so it wouldn't be convenient for me to go, would it?" Yunyi shrugged.
He glanced at Tatsuya Shiba's room, and seeing some logistics department tools inside, asked with a puzzled look, "Won't this be inconvenient?"
Tatsuya Shiba shook his head. In fact, the things in his room were just spare parts; the things that were actually needed had long been moved to the logistics area of First High School.
"Since you're here, why don't you try out the CAD software? It wasn't easy adjusting the CAD for you." Tatsuya Shiba didn't stand on ceremony and directly took out the CAD software that Yunyi used for the competition and handed it to him.
Yunyi took it and tried it out briefly. He should have kept quiet, because the test really gave him a shock.
Compared to the latest CAD model prepared for him by the military, the model in front of him was far inferior in specifications. As a result, when he unfolded the Activation Sequence, he only experienced a slight jerk. Of course, this was not because Tatsuya Shiba had made a mistake in his tuning, but because his magic transformation Activation Sequence was simply too complex. Tatsuya Shiba's ability to compress the Activation Sequence to this extent was already beyond imagination!
"As expected of you, Tatsuya! With you, Mr. Silver, around, I can finally have some fun," Yunyi praised.
Tatsuya Shiba sighed before asking, "I want to know, how did you know about my identity as Silver?"
After a moment's hesitation, Yunyi asked in return, "Is this question important?"
Tatsuya Shiba hesitated for a moment, but he still pressed on, "It's not that important, I just want to know where the leak came from."
"It came from FLT's R&D center. Of course, it wasn't your subordinates, but my family. We applied to FLT for a custom-made CAD system, but it was rejected. And at that time, the person who went to FLT to handle this matter saw you and Shiba- kun."
At this point, Yunyi paused slightly before continuing, "You should also know that with Shiba's looks, it's hard to forget someone you've seen just once. So when he mentioned this to me not long ago, I immediately had a guess. I didn't expect my guess to be true—you really are Taurus Silver!"
Hearing Yunyi's explanation, Tatsuya Shiba was speechless. He thought it was because he had accidentally revealed too much that people guessed it, but he didn't expect that he was seen by someone when he went to the R&D center.
"Since you already know, I won't hide it from you anymore. However, while I am Silver, I am not Mr. Taurus. Mr. Taurus is someone else," Tatsuya Shiba said.
"Oh?" Yunyi feigned surprise and said, "So, Taurus & Silver are a duo?"
"That's right, but let's keep this a secret for now, and please don't reveal it, Yunyi."
Hearing Tatsuya Shiba's words of advice, Yunyi smiled. He got up and walked to the window, gazing at the dark night outside, and slowly began to speak...
