poor magician

"Oops……"

Chi Mu huddled in the corner of the room. He watched his own bedroom surrounded by flames, almost swallowing it whole. There was no possibility of escape at all.Tongues of fire licked towards him along the wooden floor bit by bit, and at the same time pushed his fear to the critical point step by step.

He dared not move.He was afraid that as long as he stretched out his limbs a little, the flames would mercilessly rush to him.He felt that he had never heard his heartbeat so clearly, maybe he would wait until the room was reduced to ashes, and then this disturbing sound would stop.

He closed his eyes and began to review his life, set up the projector in his mind and started to play the video - he was brought up by his mother, then sent to this magic academy, and then became the fourth-last poor student in his grade.Although he occasionally comforted himself that there were three people behind him, in fact, when he said this to himself, he didn't feel any comfort at all.

All the hard work is like being thrown into a bottomless pit.He thought that maybe he just accepted things slower than others and had to be more patient, but he didn't see any hope until the patience was worn out.

He also thought about giving up magic, but other than that, what could he do without artistic talent and scientific wisdom, after all, magic has such a wide range of applications in today's world.

Maybe it would be nice to just die.As he thought about it, the fear in his heart slowly faded away, and he showed a smile that was uglier than crying, quietly waiting for death to come.

"Chi Mu! Chi Mu, don't die!"

A very anxious female voice sounded outside the door.Immediately, a huge wave rushed into the door, tumbling and swallowing all the flames, and finally disappeared in front of Chi Mu.

Chi Mu was arrested before he stepped into the gate of hell. He looked at the burned furniture and the wall black as charcoal in front of him, and didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

If he died, he would not be responsible for a bunch of messy things including himself, it would be a pity to be alive.

A young girl whose face was unrecognizable in the crowd broke in. She was wearing the same black suit, white shirt and red bow tie as Chiki's college uniform, holding a staff inlaid with blue gemstones. With tears in his eyes, it looked like the embankment would burst in the next second.

"Chi Mu! I thought I'd never see you again!" the girl shouted excitedly at Chi Mu with tears in her voice.

"Why, I'm not doing well." He forced himself to smile, and reached out to pat the girl's shoulder to comfort him, "Senior Fuer is still so powerful."

Seeing Fuer's appearance, he couldn't help feeling a little soft-hearted.She thought that if she really died, she would cry into tears.

Can't die yet.There are people who care about him.Chi Mu patted himself on the head, secretly cursing that he was too bad for begging to die just now.

"You'll be in trouble if I come later!" Fuer pulled him, "Get out of here first."

"You idiot! What kind of attack magic do you use in your own room?" Fuer pushed Chi Mu to sit down at the small round table in the corner of the hall, and patted him on the back pretending to be angry, "Not next time." !"

"Okay." He nodded a few times.

He originally wanted to test whether his magic power was enough to activate the intermediate-level fire attack magic. At the beginning, he chanted the spell once, but there was no response as expected, but he couldn't accept the reality and chanted it a few more times. This led to such a tragedy.

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Hanqi very much these days." Fuer sighed, "I can't help it. Since the teacher came, she has been hanging around him whenever she has time. Hey, woman."

The Magic Academy where Chi Mu and the others are studying has started a study period, that is, the school students are randomly divided into groups, and then the teacher leads the team to different places to practice magic. There are about a dozen or 20 people in each group, and their levels are also uneven. .

Originally, Chi Mu's group was supposed to be led by a female teacher. Unexpectedly, the female teacher suddenly fell ill and was rushed to the hospital as soon as she took everyone to the destination.Due to the lack of teachers, the principal had to ask a male magic researcher who specializes in research in the academy to lead the team for her.It is said that although the researcher is very accomplished in magic, he is very low-key.Because the title of researcher is troublesome to pronounce, the students still call him teacher.

"By the way, Chi Mu, wait for the teacher to tell you to release the task." Fuer went to the kitchen refrigerator and took out a pudding and started eating. "You'd better replenish your energy. Han Qi told me that it might be related to the people in the forest." The murders have something to do with it."

"Ah... that's right." Chi Mu has become numb to any practice tasks, all he thinks about at the moment is just to be with his companions.

"Come here!" Fuer ate pudding faster, almost like a dog pawing.

With a creak, the door of the room closest to the stairs on the second floor was slowly opened.

A man who looked to be in his twenties came out of the door. He had cool short hair and a pair of eyes like a starry night sky, which was completely black but could see light.The tall nose bridge is carved with graceful curves, but the gray scarf around his neck covers the part below his nose, but the white jade-like skin just sets off the half of his face, which makes people feel very good-looking .

Wearing an ordinary white shirt and black trousers, he walked slowly to the last step of the stairs.

Chi Mu was a little surprised when he first saw him. He didn't expect that the highly accomplished researcher that the magicians said was such a young man.Another eye-catching point is how cold the weather is when you put on a scarf in the cool weather of autumn.

"Everyone." The teacher said slowly, walked forward a few steps and put the same number of files in his hands as the number of people on the round table in the center of the living room, "Please go to the forest."

"It's really a forest?" Fuer, who was next to Chi Mu, had just finished planing the pudding, rushed to the table, took two files, and handed one to Chi Mu, "Chi Mu, let's partner."

Practice is originally a personal experience, but the combination of partners within three people is also within the allowed range.

"Is it ok? I'm afraid I'll be slow..." He took the file with a hesitant tone.

"It's okay! Senior sister is very powerful and can protect you!" Fuer finished speaking and pulled Chimu's hand, "Let's go."

Chi Mu looked up, his eyes were full of greenery.The tall and straight trees are densely rooted in the soil, stretching out dense branches and leaves, casting shadows.Just looking at the surface, it is completely impossible to imagine what bad things will happen to such a vibrant forest.

Chi Mu sat under the tree with Fu Er, and opened the file in his hand.

According to the file, there are many magicians living in this forest.But recently, a strange death happened to the magician in the forest.

The three dead magicians were male and female, and they had nothing in common except that they all lived in the forest.

The information of the deceased and the circumstances of the crime scene are posted below.The methods of death of the three deceased were also different. The first one was probably used by some kind of magic. He didn't have any fatal injuries on his body, and there was no sign of poisoning.The second had his heart punctured, and the third had his body cut across the middle.The place of death is nothing special.

Later, I wrote some history about the forest, saying that hundreds of years ago, forest ghosts were rampant, and it was not as lively as it is now, but lifeless.Until the arrival of the magicians, they wiped out the ghosts and still settled down here, which continues to this day.

At the end of the file, the teacher's name was written: Linxue.

"It's the file compiled by the teacher himself, and it's quite detailed." Fuer put the file in the bag he carried, and then took Chi Mu to the depths of the forest, "Go and ask the magician who lives here. Just ask."

"There!" Chi Mu followed Fuer around, and after walking for an unknown amount of time, he saw a small wooden house standing among the layers of trees.

He saw the wooden roof from a long distance, and pointed in that direction to signal Fuer to follow him.Thinking about his impressive level of magic, he could only help in this kind of place.

He walked to the cabin and tried knocking on the door.

After a while, someone opened the door, and it was a young man who looked quite simple and honest.

"Who are you?" asked the boy.

"Hello! We are magicians who are here to investigate the murder. May I ask you about the situation?" Fuer showed a friendly smile.

"Hey, that matter." The young man couldn't help sighing, "What do you want to ask?"

"Do you know the three dead?"

"I know one of them. I had a good chat with him before, why did this happen..." The young man's face became melancholy.

"Then did he have any grudges with anyone?"

"As far as I know, no, he is usually a very good person."

"Thank you." Fuer bowed to show his thanks, then turned around and pulled Chi Mu away.

"Strange, if he was really a good person, why was he killed?" Fuer tilted his head in doubt.

"Hmm... Could it be that you did something bad that others don't know about?" Chi Mu guessed.

"Maybe." Fuer looked at the watch in his hand. It was already past six in the evening. "Let's find the location of the camp written in the file, and meet everyone for something to eat."

Chi Mu nodded.Although in fact, he didn't notice the location written on the file at all.

He looked at Fuer with guilty eyes, thinking how hard it was for her to take him.

The author has something to say:

It's idiot Mengxin! ! !Please advise! ! !yeah(.
