Chimidoro Ice-cream ch24

W-Wait a minute, Lisa-san!
Wah
Why am I coming to this institute too!?

Preventing zombification by making her heart pound is unheard of!
I told her to wait until graduation,
but "during spring break" was the only part she heard.

Well, just think of it as a brief overseas trip.
Eh?

Take care now~
No way~!?

They ended up flying overseas immediately after eating yakiniku.

Heart-pounding excitement with a bloodstained movie♪

Uuh...
An overseas trip
is clearly way too sudden...

What would I even do at this facility anyway?
Oh~
Please don't be frightened!

You just need to make Shion's heart pound like you always do, Hinata-san!
Eh? That's all?

In front of 100 researchers.
NO WAY!

If we can gather some good day, you might get to home sooner than scheduled.
Eh?
Really!?

Of course, you can expect a hefty reward too<3
...

Eh?
I'm gonna make your heart pound lots, y'hear...!

Serious

H-Hyesh...!?

Ten-odd hours later.
Hm...?
We've arrived!

!?
The entire underground of this island is our facility.

Amazing... It's just like in movies.
Ah!

Hey, everyone~!
Wah~

Welcome back, Shion! Welcome, Hinata-san!

What is this? A deserted island tourist attraction!?

Welcome back, Shion!
I'm home!

N-Nice to meet you. I'm Minegishi Hinata.
We've heard all about you from Doctor Nagatsuki.

Our zombies wanted to meet you two too.
Eh!?

The doctor said they wouldn't be scary if they wore masks.
Aaah~
Those seem awfully familiar!

Has Lisa told you about our research?
Yes.
I just need to make Shion's heart pound, right?

I'll do my best so you can get some good data!
I wanna go home right away.
Oh my!
How reliable!

Well then, let's get you changed right away.
In the studio.
Eh?

When it comes to which situations will make her heart pound the most...
we've got 100 different trials!
WHAT THE HECK IS THIS!?

Yes! Now give her the backhug!
Please make it something more normal!

Then how about this?
You're so cool, Hinata-chan<3
HOT!

A vow of love on the last day on Earth is nice too.
Let's just stay like this...
Wah~
Let's just run already!

But we can't exactly leave out the shark either...
Please take this seriously!

Good work, you two!

Let's take a short break, shall we?
I've prepared a special room for you two.

When you think of places where Japanese people like to rest...

You think of this♪
!?

This bed rotates!?
What the heck is this~?
Oh.
Do you not like it?

We've prepared a change of clothes too...
No way I'm wearing that!

I never knew there were places like this in Japan.
This is fun~
Frankly, you're better off not knowing...

I know!
How about we invite Ema-chan and Nene-chan to join us next time!?
How about we don't!?

Alright, I'll call you in an hour.
Hah...
I'm tired, so let's lie down for a...

bit!?
Okay, me too...

Hey, why are you changing into that!?
It's easier to move around in than my uniform...
That's not the issue here...
Ah!

No, you shouldn't go in there!
!?

Aah~
Eep!?
You guys!

It looks like they could tell you were there from your scent, Shion.
Sorry about this.
Uuh~
Aah~
Wah~
You've really grown.

U-Um, these kids...
Ah.
Don't worry!
Our zombies don't hurt others.

Why don't you give them a hug?
Uh~
Ah~
This goes beyond hugging!!

Come on, let's head back.
Nah~
Fufu
Then how about we take a nap together?

Are you sure?
Yeah! The bed's big enough.
You sure you wanna let them sleep in a place like this...?

This reminds me of the time I was in the facility.
...

What's up, Hinata-chan?
N-Nothing!?

Just take it easy and rest.
R-Right. Thanks...

What am I thinking?
For just a moment, I imagined living together with Shion...

When I grow up, I'm gonna be Hinata-chan's wife.

Argh geez! Shion, you dummy~
And so,
the eventful first day came to a close...

...Yes, this is Lisa.

Ah! Doctor Nagatsuki!
Yes... The research is moving along smoothly.

...Yes.
Of course.
But the girls have their own lives...

...Eh? You want Shion to decide?
Are you sure, Doctor?

...Is that so? If you insist
I'll try negotiating with them.

Later...

I didn't think it would be this soon...

but it looks like the day to put this to use has arrived.

What secret does this research facility hold...? Next issue, the final chapter with center color!
