Story [ ]

The story begins with Rereko, an average high-school student who lives in Electopia (the land of electricity), failing her final electricity exam. She was forced to skip her summer vacation and go to Earth for summer school. The high school teacher Teteka sensei gave her a “transdimensional walkie-talkie and observation robot” named Yonosuke , which she will use later for going back and forth to Earth. Rereko then met her mentor Hikaru sensei, who did Electrical Engineering Research at a university in Tokyo, Japan. Hikaru sensei explained to Rereko the basic components of electricity with occasional humorous moments.

In the fifth chapter, Hikaru sensei told Rereko her studies are over. Yonosuke soon received Electopia’s call to pick Rereko up. Hikaru sensei told her that he learned a lot from teaching her, and she should keep at it, even back on Electopia. Rereko told Hikaru sensei to keep working on his research and clean his room often. Her sentence was interrupted, and she was transported back to her hometown.

A year later, Hikaru sensei was waiting at the university bus stop. Suddenly, lightning struck his laboratory. He ran to it and found Rereko waiting inside. Rereko told him she graduated, and Teteka sensei assigned her to work at the university as a research assistant, which makes Hikaru sensei and Rereko lab partners.
