Infrastructure starts from the game

"So, I hate brats the most! You never know what they can do!"

"Are you talking about meow?"

Angel confirmed at first glance that the hat was a peripheral of his shop.

After all, the clothes and key props of the magical girls before and after their transformation are all made by Angel.

The jazz hat is a magic item of the magical girl Lisa whose representative color is blue.

Lisa was born in a middle-class family and studied at Cecilia Women's School. She has a smart and calm personality and excellent grades. She is a standard little lady. As a physicist, he will pretend to be his twin brother and take physics elective courses in public schools.

(Angel: Does this character have a prototype?

Allen: Hahaha, yes? )

This jazz hat is one of Lisa's props when she was dressed as a boy.

Angor set it as one of the novice guide items in the fighting game "Magic Arena", guiding players how to operate the game and use nirvana.

In order to conform to Lisa's "smart" attribute, Angel added a lot of memory grass ingredients when making this hat, so that it can remember the player's operation mistakes and remind them when necessary.

But to be honest, Angel doesn't think the sales of this peripheral will be good in the early stage.

Among the costumes and props of the five magical girls, the shape of the jazz hat looks the most inconspicuous, and because of the limitation of the length of the movie, there is no way to express the characteristics of each magical girl well - when Allen was writing the script He once asked Angel whether to reduce the number of magical girls, but Angel refused. Instead, he asked Allen to write a huge number of lines and plots, which he planned to use in related series of games, allowing players to complete the plots by themselves. , "Magic Ring" is one of them-even so, Lisa doesn't look like a popular character.

Angel classified this hat as an unpopular item sold in the set.

Anyway, the material of memory grass is very cheap.

However, Angel did not expect that someone would use this hat in such a strange direction.

Angel didn't say anything, just went back to check, and confirmed that in just half a month, before "Magical Girl☆Maya" was released, Lisa's jazz hats suddenly appeared, and two-thirds of them were sold. in stock.

——This is nonsense, a school group bought it, can the quantity be small? !

The culprit is also easy to find.

The opponent's name is still hanging on the Hall of Fame of "Magic Arena"!

Angel located the weapon shop in the city based on this name.

Little Poirot was shivering under the quilt.

When he saw Angel, he knew that the matter had been exposed, and immediately yelled: "They did it first! Mr. Yala is still being detained. They insist that Mr. Yala cheated on us, and they are going to fire him!"

"... Even so, if you bring your hats over, aren't you ready to cheat from the beginning?" Angel said.

He wouldn't be fooled just because of the kid's two words!

Angor believed that in the unified cheating actions of these students, there was indeed an element of righteous indignation because their teacher was embarrassed by the SBs, but maybe they bought the hat first after budgeting for it? !

Not to mention that they bought hats just to have a dot reader to memorize words.

"Woooo!" Little Poirot wailed.

He doesn't want to make it so big!

When little Poirot got this hat by accident, he just wanted to secretly "progress" by himself.

It's just that little Poirot went to school with his hat on, and soon astutely noticed that this plan was not going well:

The hat is so conspicuous!

After all, there are only a few people who wear hats indoors. During the exam, it will definitely attract the attention of the teacher, and the style of this hat is quite beautiful. Before the teacher spoke, many students came to ask little Poirot where this hat came from.

But did a scumbag give up his plan because of this?

That's definitely not possible.

Little Poirot immediately bragged to his classmates about his experience of going to the magic gear. On the second day, the same hats appeared on the heads of several students from richer families.

Little Poirot still felt that there were few people. He heard from the players in the workshop that this hat seemed to be of the same style as a movie, so Poirot carefully searched for several newspapers and magazines, and selected the ones with stills of Lisa. Bring it to the class to publicize, and there will be more students wearing hats in the school, and in the case of person-to-person transmission, a fad has formed.

When everyone has a hat, it is not very strange that there are occasionally a few people who forget to take off their hats in the examination room.

Angel: ...you have this energy, wouldn't it be good to use it directly in your studies?

The principal and teachers of the third righteous school naturally noticed the popularity, but because it was a product of magic gears, the school's magic power base station was sponsored by Angel, so no one said anything.

The headmaster even thought the hat was pretty, and it was very suitable for the children. In addition, the magic exam was about to take place, and I heard that there were adults from the royal capital present. The parents of several wealthy families pulled sponsorships and gave all the children a hat.

Angor: ...

Of course, at this time, most people didn't realize that the hat was a magic item. After all, little ghosts like Poirot were rare, and without entering other textual information, the hat was originally a magic item. Will not speak in places other than "Magic Arena".

Everyone just thinks the hat is a bit expensive.

Until the magic examination, the "big shots" poked a hornet's nest.

The first day of the magic exam is a meditation test, which has nothing to do with the hat, there is no way to cheat, even because there is no way to use the "Magic Cube" to meditate in the case of off-campus exams.

Therefore, the students felt that they failed the exam that day, and because the invigilator was too strict and indifferent, and even some actions that interfered with the meditation, the students complained and felt very uneasy.

It was just like this, so it wouldn't be a big problem.

It's just that the children didn't notice that they felt that their "failure in the exam" was relative to their usual grades. After half a year of high-intensity meditation training, these children have far surpassed the ordinary The human level can even stand shoulder to shoulder with magic apprentices who have not undergone long-term training.

Their meditation results caused a riot.

At that time, the "Abandoned School" from Wangdu quarreled with the "Promotional School" headed by Mayor Owen, and called the teachers of Yixue to question, and the attitude of the examiners who took the teachers away was extremely bad.

The students who were already restless suddenly became fried.

Sensitive children were vaguely aware that these invigilators seemed to have malicious intentions towards them, and now that their teacher was "arrested", this guess was confirmed, especially when the adults themselves were arguing and caring for themselves. Not going to the students' side, the little ghosts were in a mess, all kinds of rumors emerged one after another, and some students even proposed to rush to the office directly to save the teacher.

Little Poirot was also affected by the frenzied atmosphere of the time.

It's just that his little brain is easier to use, and he immediately thought that it was impossible for a group of children to beat adults, especially those invigilators and many mages, so little Poirot found the leading senior student and explained the real purpose of the magic hat (X), it is recommended to perform a real "hat-trick" for those nasty examiners.

This proposal was unanimously approved by the other brats.

Then it is the result of full marks in other courses.

"You didn't expect that this actually confirmed the malicious slander against you." Angel asked slowly after listening.

"...I didn't think about it that much at the time! I just wanted to give those guys some color." Little Poirot bit his lip and said.

After all, he was just a nine-year-old kid.

Even if you don’t mention him, the oldest child taking the unified examination is only 16 years old, which is the age most likely to be incited.

In fact, at the end of the exam, this group of children was quite proud, but they panicked when they found out that their teacher had not been released because of this.

Little Poirot was even more keenly aware that if there was a "traitor" among them, he would definitely be arrested as a planner, and even his family members would be hurt.

That's why he was so panicked.

"Don't worry, I'm not here to settle accounts with you." Angel saw the little boy huddled together, so he couldn't blame him, so he just sighed, "After all, I, who provided this hat, It can be regarded as the mastermind behind the scenes."

"...I'm sorry," sobbed Poirot.

He generally understood that he was causing trouble to the master of the alchemy workshop.

"Compared to this, how did you use these hats outside the magic base?" Angel asked, this is what he really cared about.

Although the children's meditation ability has improved, those magic props like hats require higher magic power. Even if there is a magic power base, members with a magic power level below D cannot use it. Angel For the entry threshold of "Magic Arena" on the third floor, only members with a certain level of magic power are allowed to enter and play.

"I... used the runes from the game table." Little Poirot said.

"Game table?"

"Hmm!" Little Poirot explained honestly.

It turned out that the kid's family owned a weapon shop.

In the age of magic, weapon stores, item stores, and grocery stores were basically chain-operated. The supporting facilities near each adventurer's guild, in the magic capital, had similar chain stores on several streets.

In recent years, the business of the weapon shop was not doing well, so Poirot's father had to learn how to repair the radio. The whole shop was similar to an electrical repair shop, and only occasionally helped old customers maintain their swords.

It wasn't until recently that the item stores on the Avenue of the Brave were revitalized by the game tables of Magic Gear, which brought these old stores back to life.

The owner of the prop shop felt that it was a pity that he could not eat the order alone, so he joined forces with his old partners (descendants) to form a supporting production line.

As the child of the weapons store, little Poirot naturally helped out.

He used to repair radios with his father, and now helps build game tables.

Poirot's hands are also nimble. He looked at the magic circuit in the game table, and quickly learned how to make the game's power supply circuit. With the magic cores stockpiled in the weapon store before, Poirot can make one by himself. The game table is just missing the most critical rune core.

So after Poirot got the magic hat, he quickly figured out how to provide magic power to the hat.

"Excellent." Angel praised sincerely.

He looked at his hands and felt that he was not as good as a nine-year-old child.

Angle paused, then felt something was wrong: "But you only added a magic core to your hat, right? What about the other children? Did you do it well in one night?"

"I went back to school secretly with a few seniors, and used the magic power base station to copy the magic power circuit." Little Poirot said, peeping at Angel's expression in embarrassment.

He was even more ashamed, using the other party's donation to do bad things, and let the other party take the blame, which is not what a good boy should do.

(Angel: You weren't such a good kid when you started cheating.)

Angel now doesn't care about the child's mood.

His eyes widened: "Copy? How did you do it?!"

When manufacturing alchemy props such as game tables, although there is no need to continuously release magic power, it is necessary to grasp the flow of magic power, so mass production has not been possible, and it has become a bottleneck in the production of game tables.

Even the workers who made the game table needed people like Poirot who had enough magic power perception ability and enough dexterity. Such people were basically good candidates for alchemy apprentices.

However, this problem was not a problem for little Poirot at all.

"The tape recorder!" replied little Poirot.

"recorder?"

"That's right, the tape recorder can retain the magic nodes. We only need to record the magic nodes in the first pass, and then use the teacher's ink machine to copy the test papers, and we can copy it all at once! It's just that it makes my head a little dirty afterwards. "

"...how did you find this out?"

"In fact, I wanted to copy the school's curriculum at the beginning, so that I could 'learn' outside like a game table, but I tried many methods but couldn't do it. I only found that the radio can record magic nodes." Poirot said, He then explained to Angor a long section about magnetic heads, powder, coils and other things, which made Angor's head dizzy.

It's not knowledge that Angel can master at all.

It's not something a nine-year-old child can master.

However, Angel could tell that the kid didn't know anything about theory, whether it was magic or the principle of the tape recorder. He just wanted to play games, so he used the things at hand to conduct repeated experiments, and then got the result. .

But this is exactly the seed that Angel hopes to see.

Only programmers can't make computers.

Only mages will not give birth to alchemy.

Even Angel is often confused by his own experience and talent, ignoring the existence in front of him-to be honest, in Angel's era, the tape recorder has long been eliminated, and he never used it at all This thing.

Only by exploring between the two can we find the "truth" of this world.

"Maybe I have to talk to your father about the acquisition of this patent." Angel muttered.

"!" Little Poirot was stunned for a moment.

He doesn't understand what a patent is, but he knows that if his father finds out about it, his ass will definitely bloom!

But little Poirot breathed a sigh of relief.

If this cheating incident can end with her ass being opened, it will probably be...a good ending, right?Because even he realizes that the current situation cannot be solved by just beating him up.

If I had known it would become like this, I wouldn't have cheated!

Little Poirot reflected angrily.

In the past few days, he has been reflecting on his learning attitude, hoping that things will pass quickly.

"I'm sorry, I won't dare to do it again next time." Poirot lowered his head and apologized like a puppy.

Angel knew that he had misunderstood what he meant, but he didn't explain it.

If this kind of bear kid wants him to learn a lesson, he needs to let him reflect for a while longer.

——Especially after listening to the whole process, this kid really put in enough "efforts" to play games and cheat!

Angel rubbed the child's head and asked amusedly, "So, where's your hat?"

He still had to check the magic power circuit made by the other party first.

"The sewer near the school."

Up to now, little Poirot has nothing to hide. He reported in detail: "After we finished 'that thing', we were worried that someone would inform us or couldn't help but say it, so we took everyone's hats back. I threw it into the sewer near the school. In this way, even if someone discovers the secret of the hats, they won’t know how we used these hats outside the magic power base.”

"But why the sewer? Wouldn't it be better to just burn it?"

"It can't be burned. The incinerator in the school is too small, and you can see the situation immediately. But the sewer near the school is different. Recently, there are always strange people coming in and out, and those decent adults They are two kinds of people, I suspect they have some kind of conspiracy... But if you hide things under there, at least people like officials will not be able to go down to find them, and even if they are discovered, there will be no major problems."

"You really are a bunch of little clever ghosts!"

Does this criminal plan even include the destruction of corpses?

"I can feel it, the magical reaction below is very intense." Sera said.

In fact, she didn't need to tell it, she could see that in the cage she was carrying, there was a dark green goblin imprisoned, and now that goblin was chirping and screaming, with a huge flower blooming on top of its head.

Sera didn't care about the goblin's reaction, she just frowned and looked at "below".

It was the cover of the sewer, and in the early morning when the grass and trees were all asleep, the sound of the water below could be faintly heard, and the unclean smell coming from below could be smelled.

Sera showed a disgusted expression, and looked at her companions: "Which one of you will go down?"

In front of Sera, stood two men and a girl.

One of the men was wearing a dazzling white robe, as well as a gorgeous high-level mage's robe, which was extremely decorated. He was afraid that he would not stand out enough at night, and he didn't have the consciousness of doing a "secret mission" at all.

Naturally, he didn't want to approach such a dirty place as the sewer, so he took a step back immediately.

The man questioned Sera: "Are you sure it's down here? The magic well is not a real 'well'!"

"Of course I know this kind of common sense, but what if the goblin only responds to the following?" Sera dissatisfied, "Actually, why should we listen to Pei Sen's words! In the name of the mage tower, accuse the other party of a problem with the magic power base station?"

"Do you want to cause a civil war in the magic world? Now the magic association in the east is clearly going to give that black robe a platform." The white robe frowned, and looked at his mindless companion with disgust, "And we are not saying no To deal with him, just figure out where he came from and how many cards he has before making a move! Existence like a magic well is enough to investigate a lot of clues!"

"Then you go down!" Sera said coldly.

The man in the white robe looked at the sewer and twitched his cheeks a few times.

He has a lot of cleanliness, obviously he doesn't want to go down in person.

So the white-robed man looked at the foreign aid invited during this mission: "Doctor, what do you think?"

The one he called 'doctor' was a tall old man, his face was covered with dense age spots, he looked like a huge toad, just looking at it made Sera feel sick, but the people around the old man The young girl had a slightly disgusted expression, she just held the old man's arm affectionately, like a couple.

The old man looked at the sewer with blank eyes, and said to the girl: "Beiling, you go down."

"Yes, master." The girl replied without hesitation.

She lifted the cover of the sewer and climbed down.

The old man took out a crystal ball from his sleeve, touched it, and the scene of the sewer suddenly appeared in it, obviously using the eyes of the girl named Bei Ling as the medium.

"This kind of slave is really easy to use! I want one too." The white-robed man laughed.

"If there is a suitable one next time, I will introduce it." The old man said sullenly.

Sera showed a disgusted expression on the side.

She still doesn't understand what these male mages are thinking, why they can continue to study magic with their minds full of such dirty things. When God chooses a gifted son, doesn't he just choose it?Or is it the same with God?

When Sera was thinking wildly, Belling's voice came up vaguely through the crystal:

"Master, there is nothing abnormal here, but no obvious magic fluctuations have been found."

"It seems that detection is still necessary." The white-robed man turned his head to look at Sera.

"Okay! I'll go down!" Sera gritted her teeth, and she demanded to the old man, "Let your slave draw a cleaning circle below to keep out the good smell. I don't want to get dirty."

Although she could not understand the behavior of the male mage, she was not polite at all when commanding the "slave".

After all, it was just a group of mortals.

They are worthless ants.

After Sera made such a request, she chanted the spell in a low voice, covered herself with a protective cover, and then climbed down the vertical ladder of the sewer.

It was really dirty down there.

The darkness mixed with the stench rushed towards him, making Sera want to pass out.

She remembered that after being tested for the talent of a high-level mage, she never suffered from this kind of suffering again.

"What about that untouchable? Didn't you ask her to draw a cleaning circle?" Sera said dissatisfied.

She performed three cleansing spells in a row before she felt better.

Sera looked left and right, but couldn't find Belling's figure.

It's just that the little fairy in the cage in her hand became even more excited: "Ah! Ahhh!"

The goblin let out a strange scream, and slammed into the cage, his head was bleeding, and the petals on top of his head fell down one after another.

"It's noisy."

Sera only said indifferently, looking in the direction where the goblin hit the cage.

Only then did she discover that a big hole appeared in the wall of the sewer at some point.

"Ah, why is there a hole here...it's obviously not in the image just now!" Sera said strangely, she turned her head to the hole of the sewer and shouted: "Hey, can you see it?"

There was no response from above, as if no one was there.

"Men are really unreliable!" Sera muttered.

She immediately hesitated, not knowing whether she should continue to take risks or retreat.

However, as a high-level mage, everyone came down, and it seemed a bit embarrassing to leave like this. Sera went to the entrance of the cave to have a look, but found that there was a room behind the entrance, and Belling was standing alone in the middle of the room.

"What are you doing?! Why didn't you answer me just now?!" Sera questioned, she didn't go in vigilantly, but ordered: "Hey! What are you doing standing there, come out!"

"...I'm sorry." Belling replied slowly.

She tried to turn her head, but in the middle of the turn, her head rolled off her head and fell to the ground.

But the body made a crying sound out of nowhere: "I've been a little messed up recently, and I don't know what I'm doing! Miss Sera, you are a high-level mage, can you save me?"

"Please, save me!"

The headless body staggered towards Sera.

Sera watched the other party's performance indifferently.

As a high-level mage, how could she be afraid of such a scene.

"Pretending to be a ghost!" Sera snorted coldly, she raised her arm, trying to cast a spell.

But she soon discovered that she couldn't mobilize the magic power in her body, not only that, her head was also empty, and she couldn't use any kind of magic spell, like an ordinary person.

Sera's eyes widened in horror. She hurriedly tried to take out the magic props, but found nothing, not even the cage containing the goblin in her hand!

"I, I know! This is an illusion!" Sera shouted bravado, completing the casting gesture.

But the headless Belling was still there, and she almost jumped in front of Sera: "Miss Sera?"

"..."

Sera shuddered, pushed Belling hard, turned around and ran away.

She didn't rush to go deeper into the sewer, but grabbed the vertical ladder that had just come down and climbed up.

There were no obstacles along the way, and she quickly saw the dim light of the street lights outside, and the voice of the white robe: "Why did you come up so quickly, did you find anything?"

"—it's not a matter of finding anything at all, that slave..."

Sera wanted to ask for help, but she didn't say anything about her inability to use magic. She simply prepared to report Belling's abnormality: "That slave's head fell off! She can talk!"

"Ah, is it like this?" Bai Pao asked.

Sera raised her head, and saw that under the dim streetlights, the white robe and the old man were all looking at her with a smile, and there seemed to be nothing unusual in their expressions, but they...they held their heads in their hands.

... What kind of cliche ghost story is this!

Sera immediately wanted to go down to the well, but when she lowered her head, she saw Bei Ling holding his head and staring at her obsessively.

Sera had goosebumps for a while, and finally touched her existence as the last trump card.

Fortunately, that one is still there!

Sera held down the jewel in the center of the magic circle on her lower abdomen, and screamed loudly.

A ball of flame burned from the gemstone, enveloping Sera.

After a while, there was nothing at Sera's location.

"Run away." Holding his head in his hands, the old man said, staring straight at Sera's position, "What a pity!"

"Ah, what a pity." The white-robed man also said.

He put his head back on his shoulders.
