84. Urgent (?) Request for Dispatch

I watched as my mother cleaned up the remaining 0.7 cups of noodles that had been left on the plate like a lump of hesitation. I put down my chopsticks and looked at the TV absentmindedly, and Momo, who was sitting next to me, caught my eye. She had finished her conversation with my mother at some point and was staring down at her plate, her eyes slightly open and trembling. I wondered if she was feeling sick or if something bad had happened. Momo was acting differently than usual today.

However, pointing that out right now would only hurt Momo’s feelings. Not knowing what to do, I finished the rest of my barley tea and turned my attention to Himawari. This young lady also had a slightly dissatisfied expression on her face. The reason, of course, was because she was shocked to learn that I was a fan of Philance Red.

I have admired Philance Red since I was a child, so I can say that my feelings are not personal feelings towards Akane-san but rather feelings of support as a pure fan. But it would be difficult to explain that here and now, and in the first place, I can’t make any statements that would reveal that we are related to heroes in front of my mother.

It’s difficult to support either of them when there are civilians present. It would have been much easier if we had met at the hero base. This is the first time I’ve felt so out of place in my own home. I wish I could at least move somewhere else.

As I was racking my brain over the situation and the somewhat silent dinner table,

‘Beep, beep, beep’

Suddenly, an alarm and vibration rang out at the awkward dinner table.

“Oh, I’m sorry. It’s me.”

Himawari immediately took out her smartphone from her bag and turned off the sound. It didn’t seem to be a phone call or a timer, so Himawari hurriedly checked the screen on the spot.

An emergency message. There was only one kind of contact that would come to Himawari’s smartphone.

“Could it be a request to go out?”

Himawari, who looked slightly surprised when she saw the screen, whispered to me. I had heard about it, but this was actually the first time I had seen an emergency holiday departure up close. They really do get contacted suddenly. The fact that Momo and Himawari are here means that the standby member today is Uguisu-san, but an incident must have come in that couldn’t be resolved by the standby member alone.

“Yeah. I’m sorry that I brought you all the way to my house, but it seems like I have to go right away since it’s far away… but”

Even if it is an emergency for ordinary people, for heroes, it is usually just the same kind of work, and there is rarely any danger. I was relieved that this situation had been resolved, but Himawari frowned and glared at Momo, who was sitting in front of her with a serious expression.

“Are you not going?”

She asked in a slightly angry voice, different from usual. It goes without saying who those words were directed at.

“……..”

Momo remained silent, not meeting anyone’s eyes. The heavy atmosphere that hung between the two of them made my stomach, which had just eaten somen, felt heavy as well.

“Why are you keeping quiet? I’m going.”

With that, Himawari stood up and bowed deeply to me.

“I’m sorry. I have to go because something urgent came up.”

Could it be that it’s such an urgent matter that she needs to borrow Momo’s help? Multiple heroes must have been contacted, so it could be a major accident. I reflected on myself for thinking that I could use the tragedy that had occurred in an unknown place to avoid a difficult situation, and then asked Momo, who remained silent.

“Momo, are you not going with her?”

At those words, Momo looked me in the eye and quickly looked away, looking embarrassed.

“Uh…well”

“It’s okay. Just come by again when you have time.”

Like Himawari, she must have felt bad about leaving right away after just coming to the house. Well, if she just goes back like this, it’ll be like she just came to eat somen.

“Y-yeah. I’ll do that… I’m sorry for coming over so suddenly, senpai, mother-in-law. Next time, I’ll bring a proper souvenir and contact you beforehand.”

As if convinced, Momo stood up and picked up her bag.

“Oh my, is that so? It seems like there’s some kind of reason. Sora, send the two of them to the station. It would be terrible if they got lost again.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

Well, once they leave the house, they’ll probably be jumping on rooftops and stuff with their hero abilities, so there’s no need for me to send them.

It had only been a little over an hour since I had invited the two of them to my house, so it was still hot outside. Himawari spoke up after we had walked for a while.

“There aren’t many people around here, so I’ll just jump from here.”

She lifted the hem of her T-shirt and showed me the hero suit she was wearing underneath.

“You’re wearing that even in the middle of summer…”

That’s why you’re going to get heatstroke.

“I’ll tell the doctor to make me a cooling suit.”

“I’m fine… but thanks, big brother.”

You didn’t seem fine at all just now. Himawari is really too insensitive to her own pain, which sometimes scares me.

“Ishi-take Momo, come to the scene after you change your clothes.”

After confirming that there was no one around, Himawari took off her T-shirt on the spot and put on a hero mask that she took out of her pouch.

“If you go back to big brother’s house like this, I won’t forgive you.”

“I wouldn’t do that…”

She must really hate being left out, but it’s not like Himawari to say something so sarcastic. Has she been a bit aggressive since the request to go out came in?

I think it would be inappropriate for the heroes who are going to be heading to the scene together to be glaring at each other, so I want to do what I can as Philance Blue to help.

“Don’t worry, Himawari. Even if Philance Pink came back from work and slacked off, I would never let her into the house.”

I said it as a joke, even though it was obvious that I wouldn’t do anything like that, just as Momo said.

“…Wha-!?”

But, Momo’s expression seemed frozen.

“That’s right, you love heroes who do their best to help everyone, so you’d hate a hero who slacks off at work, right?”

indirectly, Himawari seemed to be in a better mood and had a proud look on her face.

“We-well. I don’t hate them, but, hmm. I guess so. But, yeah. I mean, a hero’s health and circumstances are important too, so it can’t be helped if there’s a good reason, but , I guess I’d rather support heroes who are really active.”

“Fufun, you think so? Then I’ll be going!”

Himawari, who had somehow already taken off her pants and had completely transformed into Philance Yellow, struck a somewhat exaggerated pose like a Sentai hero.

“Wait a minute, Himawari.”

“Hm?”

It wouldn’t be good to take up too much of her time, but there was something I had to ask her about first.

“Himawari, did you have something you wanted to talk to me about today?”

Since Himawari basically always obeyed me, the fact that she came to my house on her own made me think that there had been some big change in her feelings.

“If you have something to talk about… how about we meet up somewhere after today’s mission?”

“Eh!?”

I could tell she was surprised, even through her mask.

“A-are you sure?”

“Yeah, if it ends up taking too long and you’re tired, we can do it tomorrow or something.”

“No! Today! I want to do it today! Definitely!”

She jumped up in a burst of joy, and with the help of her suit’s enhanced springs, she jumped as high as if she were high jumping.

“Um, I’ll make sure we’re done by nightfall. I definitely will!”

“R-really?”

I didn’t want to rush her too much, but it was good to see her so motivated.

“Then, how about we meet at the station square around 9:00? If you’re tired, we can do it another day, and it’s okay if you’re late, alright?”

“No, I won’t get tired, so it’s okay!”

That’s impossible, even for her.

“Don’t overdo it and get yourself hurt.”

“Got it! I’ll definitely come, big brother!”

“…Yeah, it’ll be late at night, so make sure you wait quietly at the station. If a station attendant asks you anything, just tell them you’re waiting for your family.”

“Yes! I’ll wait properly!”

With a dazzling smile that was all too fitting for a hero, Philance Yellow kicked off the hot asphalt and quickly disappeared into the distance.

“Well, she’s not as strong as Pink, but her leg strength is amazing… hey, Momo?”

When I turned around, there was no one there. The air was hot and stuffy, and the residential area was deserted.

“Huh? Where’s Momo?”

She must have gone to change her clothes since we talked for so long. Well, she’s Momo, so I don’t have to worry about her. I guess I’ll take a nap and recharge my energy for our meeting tonight.
