Lost Narrative Poetry

"How many shots did you take?"

The black-winged girl couldn't help but ask such a question despite being ashamed and angry.

Because she couldn't imagine how fast this person was, or it should be said that it was not a matter of speed. After all, no matter how you think about it, such a situation is impossible in the physical world. If he could really reach such an amazing level of physical speed...

Does that mean that this person can trade with himself just by running at full speed around a tree?

Therefore, this should be the result of some kind of non-conscious ability, such as the control of time, such as the ability of the head maid of the Scarlet Devil Mansion to pause time, or the power of the princess of Eternal Pavilion to control the moment. , acting in a time that others cannot perceive at all.

Or for example, is it like the power of a certain monster? Because the realm is controlled, it means that the first and the last are controlled, and it also controls the fast and slow.

Taking into account the relationship between the magician in front of him and Yakumo Murasaki, and considering that they had a history of combining to cause mutations, Shemei Marufumi narrowed his eyes slightly, made such a reasonable guess, and at the same time made Due to professional habits, her little brain quickly started thinking.

Having said that, it seems that this point can be made into a fuss.

Isn’t the love-hate relationship between the pretentious monster who claims to be seventeen forever and the recently rising supernova of Gensokyo in front of him more interesting than the photo he just captured?

After all, no matter how much she spreads rumors... ahem, what she means is that even a little bit of artistic processing based on facts and a little bit of well-founded conjectures can't change the people in Gensokyo. Most of them A fact that is quite unfamiliar to the person concerned.

Because let alone the ordinary black long straight human girl, even this magic user is not very familiar to everyone, and many people may not even have any impression of his name.

Therefore, the sum of the two will probably not produce any violent chemical reaction. It is difficult to say that it is sensational news, and it will not help the reputation of the newspaper she publishes - it mainly depends on reputation, and sales are not a problem, because Wenwen She has always delivered her own newspapers for free. To her, this was just a matter of fun out of boredom and not for making money.

But if one of them is replaced by Yakumo Purple, it will be completely different. After all, this monster salty has his own enthusiasm...

Quickly clarifying her thoughts, Shemei Wanwen's eyes gradually became a little subtle. She didn't know that she had suddenly mastered the popular search methods and ideas used by celebrity traffickers in the outside world, but she just felt that this operation seemed promising.

"How many photos have been taken? I haven't paid much attention to this, but the quality and quantity are absolutely guaranteed, and they are available from all angles. You don't have to worry about this Wenwen..."

The magician noticed the subtle change in the Crow Tengu girl's expression and said with a smile.

"It's just that your eyes are not right. Don't you want "Wenwen's Photo Album (Part 2)"?"

"..."

"..."

"Wait a minute, is this considered sexual harassment?" Shemei Wanwen felt that his whole body was in bad shape. This person was really bad. How on earth could he say such a thing?

At most, she only used some misplaced techniques when capturing other people's daily photos, but this person didn't know what method he used to really take a whole set of photo albums for himself from all angles?

"Ah hahahaha, this is actually a lie to you, how could I do such a thing!" Xia Ran laughed heartily and gave a thumbs up to the Crow Tengu girl, "Don't worry, how could I do that to you? Wenwen, do you have any ideas..."

"..."

"..."

"Listening to what you said, I'm not happy at all..." The black-winged girl gritted her teeth, wondering why she found this sentence so insulting.

"This is your problem..." the magician said noncommittally, and knocked on the long table gently with his finger, "How about it, that's what I just said, do you want to do it?"

"……make a deal!"

Under the threat, Sheming Wanwen finally swallowed his pride and agreed with gritted teeth.

She didn't know whether what this person said was true or false, but there was no doubt that the initiative was currently in the hands of the other party. She had no choice but to take what she had and get back some of the negatives first.

"Huh?"

Xia Ran was stunned for a moment and looked at Sheming Wanwen a little strangely. Why did he agree so readily? Could it be that he was at a disadvantage? He blinked and cautiously said tentatively, "How about I give you half of "Wen Wen's Photo Album (Part 2)" after it's done?"

Shemei Maruwen glared at him.

"Ah hahaha, I was actually joking... Mainly because you agreed so readily, which was a bit strange. I thought you would continue to negotiate terms with me, and at least try to take back all (top) together."

It seemed that there was no way to keep lowering the price, so the magician laughed heartily and waved his hands as if nothing had happened, indicating that it was all a joke.

"If I fight for it, will you give it to me?" The black-winged girl sneered disdainfully.

"No." The magician replied instantly.

"..."

"..."

"Then it's over?" Sheming Wanwen took a deep breath. She just knew that there was no room for negotiation on this matter, so she didn't want to waste time with this guy.

"Hey, wait a minute - you just said, "At least try to take back all (Part 1) together." What does "at least" mean here? "

Suddenly reacting with some hindsight, Gensokyo's fastest reporter keenly caught the key words and stared at the person involved suspiciously.

Could it be that……

In addition to (bottom), is there not only (top)?

"That's what it means literally..." Xia Ran still smiled heartily. Regardless of whether it was true or not, he had to scare Wenwen. Otherwise, this Crow Tengu would be a very troublesome guy... Or should I say, She is the most troublesome person in the entire Fantasy Township, bar none.

Immortals usually feel bored when they don't have anything to do, so they always have to find something to do. Maybe most people can't understand the fun of it, but this is indeed a normal thing.

However, this Crow Tengu's hobbies are a bit too unique.

"You..." gritted her teeth again, and the black wings behind Shemei Maru's tattoo opened slightly, and then lowered again. It seemed that she just wanted to try to make a violent attack, and relied on her own speed to grab things and run away. impulse, but in the end reason prevailed.

"Hey." After uttering such a syllable softly, the magician who noticed that the Crow Tengu flinched seemed to sigh softly with some disappointment.

The black-winged girl subconsciously hid the camera behind her back and closed her legs under her short skirt. She was ashamed and angry. What on earth was this person disappointed about? Could it be that he had been thinking about this just now? , want to let yourself act impulsively and take the opportunity to leave yourself some dark history?

"Okay, it's settled then. Mingzhu, come find Wenwen when you have time. She lives in this monster mountain."

Xia Ran found that Wenwen had learned well this time, so he didn't dwell on it anymore. He turned to look at Fairy Ouyang next to him who had always been very well-behaved, and gave casual instructions.

"Just go over here."

She stretched out her hand with an expressionless expression, Shemei Wanwen said something like this, and then turned around and left quickly as if she was sulking. She felt that if she continued to stay here, she would definitely eat everything. You'll be full if you don't eat more.

Xia Ran watched the Crow Tengu's back disappear, and was about to look away, but he happened to see a familiar figure behind the girl in the blue palace skirt.

"Well, just in time, an acquaintance you also know, Mingzhu, is here..."

"acquaintance……?"

Ouyang Mingzhu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and subconsciously turned around to look back, just in time to see the figure of a girl who looked like a fairy coming from the foot of the mountain.

"Liu, Miss Liu..."

For a moment, the time long ago seemed to wash up on the beach. Miss Ouyang murmured to herself, remembering some memory fragments from the past. After so many years, the appearance of the young master of the demon world is still as stunning as before.

She suddenly felt uneasy, frustrated and lost, but she forced herself to remain calm and smiled softly, turning her eyes to the magician:

"I almost forgot. Speaking of which, it seems like it has been thousands of years since Miss Liu and Teacher you left. Now Teacher, you and her..."

"No, what are you thinking about? Time flows at different speeds in the two worlds, and it's not like you don't know our current situation, Mingzhu..."

Xia Ran interrupted her directly and reminded the fairy helplessly, "For Miss Liu, it has been more than a month since you last met."

"..."

"..."

"Eh? Ah? Is that so?" After two cute and cute sounds that represented doubts, Miss Ouyang suddenly realized that it seemed that her world view was still not adjusted in place, and she subconsciously used her subjective and familiar view of time to guess. The situation here is over.

"Of course that's the case. Don't you know if you ask her yourself later?"

"I-I see... I thought..." Miss Ouyang suddenly felt that her worry and frustration just now seemed silly, and she felt like she couldn't laugh or cry.

Although I have been waiting for thousands of years, it seems that judging from the teacher's situation, I am not too late at all! still have a chance! It's alright!

"Why?"

"No, it's nothing..." Miss Ouyang shook her head repeatedly, and then suddenly remembered something, her expression suddenly became a little uncomfortable, "Wait, teacher, if Miss Liu asks Miss Han later, What should I say about their situation?”

"..."

"..."

Just as he was taking the glass of juice handed over by Charlotte, Xia Ran's movements froze slightly, and he suddenly realized that this was a problem.

"Since thousands of years have passed... she should be mentally prepared, right?" Hesitantly speaking in a guessing tone, the magician's eyes wandered and he quickly glanced at Liu Mengli, who was walking over there, and then He quickly took it back.

"Teacher, you just said that from Miss Liu's point of view, it has only been more than a month..." Miss Ouyang reminded him helplessly that now is not the time to escape reality.

"Well, I think Miss Han's health is not good to begin with, and the number of days is destined to be long and yang in the book of life and death. This is also something that can't be helped..."

"Teacher, are you sure you want to tell Miss Liu this way later?"

"..."

"..."

The master and apprentice stared at each other, and the scene was a little quiet for a while.

Just at this time--

“Mr. fragrant.

Or perhaps both. After all, Liu Mengli is good at making secret incense, so her body will naturally have medicinal scents such as cloves and patchouli.

This is also one of her unique characteristics... Xia Ran's mind was a little confused, and she could only think like this. At the same time, she subconsciously raised her hand and waved, "Miss Liu, you are here. Didn't Master Chanyou come with you?" ?”

"I have already said that, young master, just call me by my name..." Liu Mengli smiled slightly, "Mother, she has been in seclusion to heal her wounds recently, so there is really no way for her to come over."

"Oh, yes, her injuries..." Xia Ran nodded thoughtfully.

"Actually, it's nothing. Dr. Ba Yi from Eternal Pavilion is indeed very skilled in medicine. After her treatment, my mother's injury has improved greatly. It is said that it will be cured after a while of recovery..." Liu Mengli said softly.

The next moment, she looked at the girl in the blue palace skirt next to the magician with some confusion, and her expression quickly changed from confusion to surprise: "This is...Miss Ouyang?!"

"It's me, Miss Liu, long time no see..." Ouyang Mingzhu looked a little unnatural, but she still tried her best to maintain a smile.

"Mr. Xia, have you returned to our world?" Liu Mengli looked at Xia Ran anxiously and asked with surprise and expectation.

"No, no, it's just Mingzhu who came here on her own..." Xia Ran stretched out his fingers to scratch his cheek, his mind was spinning. He considered countless plans in an instant, but he rejected them one by one.

There seems to be no way, and it is impossible for people to remain rational in the face of everything.

Comparing the feelings, if it were him, if he suddenly heard that the friend he was talking and laughing with more than a month ago, traveling around the mountains and rivers, and wandering around in the world, was now dead, but he didn't even have time to see the other person for the last time... …

Well, how could this be accepted so easily?

Even if the actual situation is in another world, thousands of years have passed, everything is actually a matter of course and helpless.

"Is that so?" Liu Mengli opened her eyes slightly in surprise, seeming a little disappointed, but she soon calmed down her emotions and gently reached out to brush the black hair beside her ears, "Miss Ouyang, can you come with me?" Tell me, how are Lingsha and the others doing now, are they doing well?"

"..."

"..."

"Ahem, Miss Liu, can you come with me..." Xia Ran sighed in her heart, looked around, and finally spoke to Liu Mengli.

After all, there was laughter all around at this moment, and the atmosphere at the banquet was not suitable for talking about sad things. This would not be good for everyone.

"Hey, now? Mr. Xia?" Liu Mengli seemed a little stunned.

"Yes, I have something to tell you."

Liu Mengli couldn't help but feel shocked, and suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart. Could it be that it was Lingsha and the others...

"... Mr. Xia, if you have anything to say, just say it here." She pursed her lower lip hard and said calmly: "Did Lingsha and the others... have something wrong?"

"This..." The magician opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, but sometimes, not speaking is actually a statement.

"Sure enough...is that so? Has Lingsha already..."

The girl's starry eyes had always been as full as water, but at this moment, they suddenly dimmed, as if they were lost, dimmed, and seemed to be covered with a hazy layer of mist, and even her eye sockets became slightly red.

She was blue-blooded and intelligent, so naturally she had vaguely guessed something.

Everyone else should be fine, except for my friend, who probably has...

"No, no, no, don't cry..." Xia Ran's claws suddenly became numb. He didn't expect that Liu Mengli had already guessed something before he said anything. Seeing the girl's miserable expression, he was immediately in a hurry. got up.

"Mr. Xia, tell me, is it Lingsha..." Liu Mengli shook her head, tears glistening in her eyes.

"...Yes, it's just because the time between the two worlds is not equal. Thousands of years have passed since we left that world." The magician said cautiously.

Immediately afterwards, he saw the girl smile sadly, tears in her eyes sliding down her crystal cheeks.

…

…

"too slow……"

On the outside of the shrine, under the tall torii gate, facing the last rays of the setting sun, the girl with long black hair frowned in displeasure.

"There's nothing I can do about it, after all, there are so many things going on right now..." Yukinoshita Yono showed a sunny smile, stretched hard, and showed her beautiful figure in the evening breeze, "But Yukino-chan is actually waiting here. Sister, you really moved me."

"I'm just worried that you won't be able to find a way in without someone to take you." The girl with long black hair said coldly.

"Really? I don't believe it..." My sister said this with a very sunny expression, "Let me guess, why did he make you angry when he wasn't with you? That's why you Are you waiting for me here?"

"No!" Yukinoshita denied decisively.

"Really do not have?"

"Really not!" There was a hint of obvious impatience between the girl's eyebrows.

"Sure enough..." Yukinoshita Yono carefully studied his sister's expression, then nodded with a clear face and made this judgment.

"You! Don't you understand what others are saying?!" The long, straight black girl was ashamed and annoyed. Sure enough, she couldn't be nicer to her!

"Don't be excited, Xiao Xueno..."

"I'm not excited!" the girl said excitedly.

"Okay, okay, that was my mistake. Let's go there quickly, okay?" Yukinoshita Yono nodded repeatedly. Anyway, you will know if it is true or not, just go in and take a look.
