To be king and magician

"There are quite a lot of people, anyway, close the door first."

After summoning a strong wind and re-blocking the kicked door, Xia Chuanhu smiled and said, "Sorry, my sister is only eight years old and underage, so she is not suitable for the next restricted scene."

"Considering that you may still be unclear about the situation, let me explain—in a word, except for the victim lying on the ground, none of you can get out of here intact."

No one said a word.

In terms of thinking, every delinquent boy wanted to question Xia Chuanhu's intentions, so he barged in and interfered with their next good thing.But looking at the leader who was hammered directly into the wall and didn't know if he was alive or not, everyone was shocked.

The next moment-

"Boom boom boom boom boom!"

——————————————————————————————————

Yoyo opened her eyes, looked at the chandelier hanging above, and realized that she was Lying Asakami Fujino subconsciously wanted to sit up.

"It's better for you to continue lying down, Asakami Fujino."

Suddenly, a man's voice sounded beside him.

Asakami Fujino turned his head and found a very handsome, blond person who could not tell whether it was a man or a woman was sitting on a chair by the bed and looking at her, and there was a young girl standing beside her girl.

"here is?"

"A room in the hospital. Because I don't know where you live, so after saving you from those little bastards, I can only bring you here, and check your body by the way."

"saved me......"

Asakami Fujino sorted out his chaotic memories.

"That's right, I was on my way back to school and was taken away forcefully by a few people...Did you save me? Thank you so much."

"The road is uneventful."

Xia Chuantor only found out that the kidnapped girl belonged to Asakami Fujino after he hammered all the bad boys into the wall. Because she was wearing a black college uniform and the dark environment, Xia Chuantor never found out. is her.

"Is there any discomfort in your body? You just finished the operation. If you have any discomfort, you can tell me. I'll call the nurse."

"Operation?"

Asakami Fujino frowned.

"But I'm not sick."

"Appendicitis is still quite serious. According to the doctor, it has been happening for a long time." Xia Chuanhu explained, "I originally brought you here only because I thought you were kidnapped by a bad gang. Maybe you were beaten with a sap or something, just in case I will check you, I didn't expect to find out that you have appendicitis."

This is a lie.

After knowing that the girl he rescued was Asakami Fujino, Xia Chuantora immediately took her to the hospital for surgery—all the troubles encountered in the middle were all solved by hint magic.

After hearing Xia Chuanhu's explanation, after being silent for a while, Asakami Fujino smiled helplessly: "I didn't expect to be found out because of this...It really bothered you, it was really very Thank you. I will definitely pay back the cost of the operation. By the way, I haven't asked your name yet?"

"Xia Chuanhu. Just call me Xia Chuan. This is Grey, my sister."

11. night attack

On the square in front of the hospital.

Turning around and looking at the third floor of the hospital behind him, after staring at Asakami Fujino's ward for a few seconds, Gray asked, "Brother, is it okay to leave Miss Asakami in the hospital like this?"

"Probably not, and thanks to meeting her by chance, I suddenly have a place to go."

Speaking of things related to Asakami Fujino, it is undoubtedly the plot of the residual pain, and the person Araya Soren.However, if the pain remains, the time has not yet come, and it is not yet 98, the two rituals should still be lying in the ward, there is no rush.

But Ara Ye Zonglian, Xia Chuanhu felt that it was necessary to meet the biggest shady man in the realm of space.

After all, he, who once acted with the goal of "wanting to save everyone", and Xia Chuanhu, who had the goal of "wanting to help others as much as possible", can be regarded as juniors to the extreme.

(I remember it was Ogawa Apartment, I have to find a map, but this time...)

It's almost eight o'clock in the evening, Xia Chuanhu doesn't care, but the little kid Grey should go to bed, if possible, Xia Chuanhu still wants to take Grey back to the hotel before making any plans.

(Speaking of which, it’s not a problem to stay in a hotel all the time, it’s too expensive... Please ask the master, can she let me live in the Garan Hall? I’ll ask when I go tomorrow. )

Before the end of dinner, Aozaki Chengzi told Xia Chuanhu to go to her office [Garan no Hall] at noon tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Xia Chuanhu said to Gray: "It's getting late, let's go back to the hotel. Are you sleepy? Gray."

"A little bit, but if my brother still wants to continue doing things, I can hold on."

"It's okay. I can do my work tomorrow. Children can't go to bed late, they won't grow tall."

Patting Grey's head and holding her hand, Xia Chuanhu was about to walk on the avenue, but his eyes caught a somewhat strange figure on the empty avenue.

It's weird, but it's based on common sense. It's obviously not raining now, but that person is wearing a yellow poncho uncharacteristically, standing under the street lamp like a sculpture, and the whole person is hidden in the large poncho, because The reason for the perspective is that even a little bit of eyes and expressions are not shown.

The moment he saw this person, a feeling of strangeness and familiarity suddenly rushed into Xia Chuanhu's heart.

I may have seen that person wearing a poncho somewhere, but that person wearing a poncho is not the person he has seen before——that's what it means to express it in words.

"pat-"

The man took a step forward, and the poncho was pulled away by his calf, revealing a corner of the blue clothes.

And at this very moment, like a cheetah pounced on its prey, the man in the poncho rushed towards Xia Chuanhu!

The distance between the two is about 50 meters, at the current speed——

(Six seconds. Too slow.)

For Xia Chuanhu, this time is enough to open a distance of hundreds of meters, but since there is Gray by his side, the best choice is...

"elder brother?"

Faced with Xia Chuanhu who suddenly picked her up by the waist, Grey let out a little exclamation, and was led by Xia Chuanhu to jump directly onto the streetlight across the road.And the second after Xia Chuanhu left the ground, the man in the yellow raincoat pounced on him, and then a silver light suddenly magnified in Xia Chuanhu's field of vision——

(Short knife. Doesn't have any magic reactions, poison... doesn't seem to have either.)

Turning his head to avoid the blow, Xia Chuanhu looked at the person below: "The passers-by who have no grievances or enmity with me for the attack at night, can you give me an explanation?"

"prey....."

"what?"

"You stole my prey."

The voice coming from under the raincoat was somewhat neutral, but it was still a female voice, and the moment he heard this voice, Xia Chuanhu understood why he had a familiar feeling the moment he saw this person .

However, at the same time, he felt incredible and unbelievable from the bottom of his heart.

"You are......"

Looking at the blue corners and red sleeves protruding from the raincoat, Xia Chuanhu was already sure of the identity of the person who attacked him, but how is this possible?Now it's December 97, at this time she should still be lying in the hospital.

"You are two—"

"The weapon is gone. It's a bit arbitrary to just throw it out. I need to bring a few spares in the future."

Before Xia Chuanhu finished speaking, the man started talking on his own, then looked up at Xia Chuanhu, as if to remember his face, his ice blue eyes stared at him for a long time before closing stand up.

"no next time."

"Eh? What do you mean? And you should be—"

Once again, without waiting for Xia Chuanhu to finish speaking, the man quickly sneaked into the night.

(That voice, and those eyes... definitely two rituals!)

It was unexpected!

Xia Chuanhu was even more surprised than the fact that Morgan was still alive!

Why did the two ceremonies appear at this time?Shouldn't she be in a coma because of a car accident in 96, and she won't wake up until June of 98?It's only the end of 97 now.

(Could it be that the two ceremonies in this world did not have a car accident? Then... Could it be a parallel world?)

Not falling into a coma, but still awakening the two rituals of the Devil's Eye of Death - if this is a situation that is very different from what Xia Chuanhu knows, then it can only be explained by a parallel world.

"It seems that there is one more thing to do tomorrow."

Go to the Hall of Garan to visit Aozaki Touko, go to the Ogawa Apartment to meet Araya Muneren, and——investigate about the two ceremonies in 96.

(Since returning to Japan, it feels like one thing after another, don't let me stop?)

Staring at the direction in which the two ceremonies left, Xia Chuanhu sighed slightly.

"Brother?" Gray's voice brought Xia Chuanhu back to his senses, "Is that person just now... an acquaintance of yours?"

"You can say yes, or you can say no, it's just that I know her unilaterally. Let's not talk about this, go back to the hotel."

"Ah."

——————————————————————————————————

【I met her】

[It's a little earlier than expected, but since we're already there, it's just a matter of time]

【If it was him, he should be able to handle it, it must be fine】

[Afterwards, I will also find a chance to meet him again]

【Three years... Hehe, such a long time has passed in the blink of an eye】

12. Changing world line

The next day, noon.

According to the address Aozaki Chengzi left for herself before, Xia Chuanhu and Gray went to her workshop - the Hall of Garan.

"It should be here."

Xia Chuanhu looked at the abandoned building in front of him and said.

But it is said to be an abandoned building, but it is actually a complete ruin.The building itself started construction a few years ago when the economic boom was good, but then the economy suddenly deteriorated, and the half-built building stopped and became a half-finished product that was stopped halfway.Although the appearance and construction are generally completed, the interior is completely undecorated, and the walls and floors are still exposed concrete.

In addition, in the original design, there should be a six-story building, but now there are only four floors, and the floor of the fifth floor directly serves as the roof.

And not long ago, in order to have a place to stay in Guanfuzi City, Aoqi Chengzi bought this place and established the Garanzhitang Office—that being said, apart from her as the president, the office There is not a single employee in the office.

Going up to the fourth floor, pushing open the door and entering the office, Xia Chuanhu saw Aoqi Chengzi sitting in front of the workbench at first sight.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Cang Qi Chengzi adjusted his glasses and looked over, then smiled and said, "Oh, here you come, my disciple. You are really on time."
