The evenings were indistinguishable from night in the winter. And there I was on top of a train crossing the Great Tokyo Fault. I looked to the side and saw Lady with me in the cold wind. She was making some adjustments with her keyboard hooked up to the electrain’s transformer.

“The Chancellor’s Officers have such a variety of jobs to do, don’t we? It seems weird for a student to be compressing the inside of a train because it’s too crowded.”

“To be fair, this is pretty unique to Tokyo. So how far can you compress it?”

“Up to eight times by speeding up the internal space’s music.”

When Lady began playing her keyboard, I heard what sounded like wind or something moving below the roof. That had to be the sound of the inside being compressed.

Lady continued playing in order to stabilize the music.

“But what are you doing here?” she asked. “I could have handled this on my own.”

“That is a very good question.”

“Wait…don’t tell me you’re here to look up my skirt in this wind.”

“Hold on. I’m not so bored I would come all the way out here to see something I can see anytime I want.”

“I’m not going to even think about what that last part means, but did you see it or not?”

“Let’s not jump to conclusions. In the interest of eliminating all misunderstandings, they were white.”

Her keyboard case proved its effectiveness as a blunt weapon by hitting me in the side of the head. ''Hey, hey, hey, hey! I only saw them once, so I don’t deserve to be hit this many times!

After raising the case overhead once more, Lady stumbled forward and fell.

“Eh?” She fixed her skirt and slammed the case into me again.

“The train’s speeding up.”

“Because I sent high-speed music into it. Eight times speed.”

That meant it was my turn. I could punch the speed, after all. So I stood up.

“You finish your adjustments. I’ll keep on punching until then.”

She’s casually doing some crazy things.

And can she even decompress them when she leaves?
