When Ling Yao woke up, it was already past eight o'clock in the morning.

She doesn't know the class time of the High School of Conjuration, and wonders if this time will delay others too much...

After Ling Yao put on her shoes, she went to the next room three rooms away. Wujo Wu told her last night that this was Xia Youjie's room.

She hesitated for a moment, then knocked on the door.

After waiting for a while, the door did not open.

She had no choice but to take out her mobile phone, find Xia Youjie's number saved last night, and send him a text message: "I'm Ling Yao, may I ask you now..."

The text message was only half edited when the door in front of him opened.

A figure blocked her view. When Ling Yao raised her head, she heard Xia Youjie's voice, very gentle: "Did you wake up so early? I thought you would sleep a little longer."

Ling Yao was taken aback, and Xia Youjie saw the action of putting away the phone.

Xia Youjie smiled, "Sorry, I was getting dressed just now, and the door was a little slow to open, I heard a knock on the door."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm afraid to disturb you... What time are you in class, won't it delay you?"

"Well, no, I asked Teacher Ye Moth for leave this morning, and I will send you back to class again."

Xia Youjie spoke very naturally, which surprised Ling Yao.

It took her a while to realize, "In order to send me back, did you just ask for leave and skip class?"

Xia Youjie smiled, "Yes, it was Wu who asked for leave for me. But Teacher Ye Moth agreed very happily. After all, you have saved many people and helped a lot. Teacher Ye Moth also cares about you very much. Safety."

When he was talking, he noticed that the broken hair on Ling Yao's forehead was scattered in a mess, and he smiled slightly and said, "Is Wu's room locked?"

"Yes! I locked the door when I came out." Ling Yao agreed obediently.

Xia Youjie asked again: "Did he give you the key to the room?"

"Give it."

"That's easy." Xia Youjie took her back to Wujo Wu's room. After Ling Yao took out the key and opened the door, he entered Wujo Wu's room first, and then found a series of things. The toiletries are brand new and haven't been opened yet.

He handed the things to Ling Yao one by one, and adjusted the hot water again, "Okay, come out after washing up."

Ling Yao held the new toothbrush that had just been disassembled, and hesitated a little, "Are these enlightened? Wouldn't it be too good for him to use it up..."

"It's okay, he won't care."

"okay."

After washing up, he walked out of the sink. Xia Youjie was still standing outside, holding a comb and a rubber band in his hand.

Xia Youjie pulled out the chair for her, she sat down and let Xia Youjie tie her braids.

The comb combed through the roots of the hair again and again, the movement was very light, and he asked behind him: "Do you usually wear a high ponytail?"

Ling Yao hummed, "I don't know how to tie my hair. When I was at Munakata's place, only sister Awashima could comb my hair. She likes to tie me into a high ponytail. After being adopted, my mother usually goes to work and leaves early, so I Only with a high ponytail..."

"Want another one?"

Ling Yao showed a little expectation, "Is it okay?"

"Of course." Xia Youjie brushed her hair and lifted it up. The braid that was tied into a high ponytail was twisted a few times, tied into a small ball, and fixed.

Until Xia Youjie took her out of the college and walked to the nearby subway station, Ling Yao was still bouncing around happily.

She also took a photo when Xia Youjie wasn't paying attention, and sent it to Momoi Wuyue. Girls are always willing to share their differences. She sent a message and said, "Does this look good on me?"

Momoi Wuyue replied quickly, "It's so cute!!! The whirling bell is so cute!"

After receiving the compliment, Ling Yao was even happier, "A friend of my good friend pierced it for me."

Momoi Wuyue: "The relationship is so complicated! Isn't your good friend's friend your friend? But, Ling Yao, when will you come back to school? I went to ask the teacher, and the teacher said you were on leave... I miss you so much QAQ"

Speaking of this.

When Ling Yao saw her face reflected on the screen, her expression gradually faded.

She replied a little depressed: "I don't know...I'm going to go back and ask Grandpa."

Momoi Wuyue was puzzled: "Eh? Why are you asking grandpa? Did your grandpa not let you go to school?"

"It should be... I don't know what he means yet, I will see him later, and I will get back to you then."

"Okay! Then I'll copy the notes for you first. The final exam will be coming soon. If you come back to take the exam, it will be in time!"

"Yeah, thank you May."

After arriving in the city, I changed another station.

Xia Youjie has never said a word, he is not like Wujo Wu who always has endless things to say.Ling Yao is also not very talkative, so there is very little communication along the way.

Only when getting out of the car, Xia Youjie would call her.

However, the station of the second train was very crowded, and Ling Yao was standing next to Xia Youjie. She was already short, and it was hard to be noticed when standing in the crowd, so she was always being pushed around.

There seemed to be a quarrel in the front, people on both sides refused to give in to each other, and there was also the sound of children crying loudly, crying loudly, which made people upset and irritable, which also aroused the emotions of other people nearby, loudly scolding and accusing Asking why the parents didn't care about their children, they became very angry for a while.

The two parties who were quarreling even started to wrestle, and the people present let out an exclamation, but no one tried to persuade them to fight, and most of them were in a state of having nothing to do with themselves.

However, no one tried to persuade the fight, and the effort on the lips did not fall. The people around have been pointing and pointing, without stopping.

Crying, yelling, fighting, and persuading, the noise was full of noise.

Ling Yao stood not far away, and could vaguely hear their quarrel in the chaotic noise, as well as the sarcastic persuasion of the surrounding people standing on the moral high ground, so the situation became even more chaotic.

The fight was fierce. One of them knocked the other to the ground, grabbed his head and smashed it on the ground, cursing viciously: "Isn't my son just eating fried chicken, huh? I'm in the way of you!" What's the matter? Don't take this bus if you think it smells bad? Are you pretending to be your mother here? What kind of educated person are you pretending to be? I beat up your grandson who pretends to be educated!"

The man in the suit who was pinned to the ground struggled to resist, while the surrounding crowd continued to point and point.

"Oh, it's really wrong to eat at the station."

"But what's wrong with a child being greedy? It's just a child. Why bother with a child."

"It's obvious that you can reason well, but how could you fight? Both of them are too irritable."

"That's right, what it looks like to fight in public."

"Stay farther away, and be careful not to be accidentally injured by them."

It was the first time for Ling Yao to see such a situation. What she saw on the spaceship was the beauty and warmth of the world, and the few months of living on the ground were also very harmonious and friendly.

Never seen such a picture.

Especially the person who was knocked down on the ground, whose head was being pressed and smashed all the time, she was very afraid that something would happen if it continued like this.

But she didn't know what to do, so she raised her head and looked at Xia Youjie next to her in a daze, trying to find a correct answer: "Should we stop them?"

"..."

Xia Youjie remained silent for a long time.

He pursed his lips lightly, looking gloomy and calm, different from the calmness of rational thinking in Ling Yao's cognition, Xia Youjie's calmness at this time is more like a coolness that has nothing to do with him.

After a long time, he said, "How do you think it should be stopped?"

Ling Yao froze for a moment, "...I don't know."

She asked Xia Youjie because she didn't know what to do, but Xia Youjie didn't give her an answer, but threw the question back.

He said, "It is the responsibility of the conjurer to protect the non-conjurer from the harm of the curse, but the person who hurts the non-conjurer is the non-conjurer. Is this also the responsibility of the conjurer?"

Ling Yao didn't know how to answer, she even felt... Xia Youjie didn't ask him this question, he was just questioning himself.

Xia Youjie stood beside her, watching the whole process with cold eyes from the beginning to the end, without any intention of stopping this farce.

At this time, someone in the crowd exclaimed, "Bleeding? It won't kill anyone, right?"

When Ling Yao heard that someone was injured, she didn't care whether her own way of handling it was right or not, so Liuying flew out and rushed into the crowd.

She turned over her palms and shook them, those fluttering fireflies immediately bound the two of them with a tendency to tighten, Ling Yao swiped her hand back, Liuying seemed to gather strength under her guidance, and bound them together The two forcibly separated the two.

The onlookers were all shocked, and they didn't know what happened for a while after seeing this scene.

This is the center of the city. In broad daylight, where are there so many fireflies?

Moreover, these fireflies seemed to be alive, pulling the two of them apart abruptly. It was too weird, really weird.

The weirdest thing is that the wound on the bleeding forehead of the beaten person is slowly healing——

"Yes, there are ghosts!!!"

"This person is a ghost!! Everyone run away!!!"

The chaotic station suddenly scattered, only a few people who were arguing, Ling Yao and Xia Youjie were left.

The chaos wasn't over until one of them got in the car when it was time to pick up.

Ling Yao took Liu Ying back, thinking of the scene of those onlookers being frightened by the strange phenomenon just now, she was extremely distressed, "I just decided to go back to Grandpa Huang to take responsibility, but... I haven't seen him yet, I seem to be I did something wrong, shouldn’t I save people in this situation? But if I don’t save people, I’m really afraid that someone will be killed.”

Xia Youjie was not silent this time, and replied: "Maybe, maybe you are right."

Ling Yao didn't expect that he would agree to her, so she took the opportunity to ask: "Then why...you didn't choose to save someone just now?"

Xia Youjie lowered his head and smiled at her, "Have you ever thought about it, if the person you save is not worth saving?"

Ling Yao looked at him blankly, "Why isn't it worth saving?"

He was still smiling slightly, calm almost coldly, "What if the person you save hurts other people? If you save him, you are harming the person he hurt. For example, if the person you save is a murderer commit, will you save him?"

"..."

"Your ability is to save people, but if your saving is meaningless, then why do you want to save?"

"........."

The question Xia Youjie asked was completely beyond Ling Yao's range of cognition, and the cognition she had always accepted seemed to have never considered this aspect of the problem.

Among the people I know, brother Xiaobai is the one who dislikes to talk to her the most. He uses projection equipment to let her see the world with her own eyes, and makes her fall in love with the world on the ground, and likes her willingness to protect the world from the bottom of her heart. .

Grandpa Huang is serious and upright. He has always taught her that it is your responsibility to save the suffering human beings.

Munakata Reishi... is the one who cares most about justice and order. Even though he is the King of Blue, above the government, he always achieves perfection in procedures. When he gave her the power of the Blue Clan, Like other members, she also recited the phrase "Using a sword to make a sword, our righteousness has no haze."

All along, in her perception, saving people is saving people.

Does it make sense to save people... She never thought about it. Xia Youjie's questions made her completely confused.

boarding.Arrive.Back at Nanakamado, there is already a familiar rabbit mask waiting for her in front of the courtyard.

Xia Youjie said goodbye to her, turned and left.

She looked back at the figure that was gradually leaving, and for some reason, she always felt that the direction he was heading was not the way home, but a lost road with no future.

When following the rabbit mask in, Ling Yao suddenly thought of Gojo Satoru.

However, when she was looking for Gojo Satoru's contact information, she didn't remember it for a while because she just changed the new note last night. After looking it up several times, she suddenly remembered——

Grow up, idiot.

……

So speechless.

She lowered her head and edited the message, hoping to get an answer from Gojo Satoru: "If the person I save is a murderer, shouldn't I save it?"

send it over.

After only a while, Wutiao Wu sent back a message: "?"

Ling Yao continued to ask: "If my saving is meaningless, shouldn't I save people?"

Gojo Satoru: "?"

Ling Yao stared at the two question marks sent by Gojo Satoru, a little depressed, "Answer me, why did you send the question mark?"

Gojo Satoru called directly.

Ling Yao looked at the gravel road that was about to come to an end, she was about to meet Grandpa Huang, she didn't know whether she should answer the call or not.

...But, she also wanted to hear Gojo Satoru's voice.

Especially the call interface was shaking on the screen, and the phrase "grow up, idiot" was always displayed in front of her, as if some force was pulling her, making her want to press the answer button irresistibly.

She glanced at the yard that was just around the corner, and then at the caller ID flashing on the screen. She clicked to answer the call.

I really want to hear Gojo Satoru's voice.

As soon as the phone was connected, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth unconsciously, "Wu,..."

"Didn't I ask Jie to take you back? How can you still meet weird people, who told you these rubbish words, ah? Tell me, what does it look like, what is its name, is it some kind of evil. They taught the organization, I brought them back when I came back from a business trip!"

He scolded his head and covered his face.

"........."

"Speak, Ling Yao, who told you these nonsense,—forget it, your little head probably can't remember what it looks like, let me tell you, Ling Yao, no one will tell you such nonsense in the future , call me directly, let me reason with him, don't worry about anything, do you hear me?"

Ling Yao didn't know what to say for a while, and after a while, she whispered, "Xia Youjie said it..."

"..." Wutiao Wu was speechless, "Why would Jie say such a thing? He has been emphasizing the truth with me before, and he has said more than Teacher Ye Moth. I am tired of hearing it. How did he tell you the original words? of?"

The yard has arrived.

The King of Gold was sitting in the courtyard, with the waiting rabbit mask standing behind him, and he looked over.

Ling Yao suddenly felt nervous about being caught by the teacher, and she didn't care about Wujo Wuliu, so she quickly said "I'll talk to you when I'm free" and hung up the phone.

She walked over obediently, "Grandpa Jin..."

The King of Gold looked calm, and glanced lightly at the mobile phone in her hand, "Did you just call the heir of the Wutiao family?"

Ling Yao's heart trembled suddenly, she raised her head and stared at the King of Gold with wide eyes.

After a while, she finally spoke, "The Wutiao family... heir?"

The King of Gold is the oldest among all the current kings except the King of Silver. At the same time, because his ability is to guide people's talents to the maximum, therefore, from the national government to all fields of society, Outstanding talents from all walks of life are all over his clan.

Therefore, in fact, the king of gold is the king who dominates the entire country, and has the power to give priority to various institutions of the country.

Although Ling Yao is also a king, she has been growing up under the names of King of Silver and King of Gold since she woke up from the ruins. Both of them are her elders. The King of Silver is very gentle and indulgent to her, so in front of her When facing the King of Gold, there is always an unconscious tension.

When I was answering Gojo Satoru's call in the yard, my heartbeat was so nervous.

In the end, when she saw Grandpa Jin,... she even guessed who she was calling, and she became even more nervous. She didn't know why she felt nervous when Grandpa Jin caught her calling Gojo Satoru.

The King of Gold said: "Well, didn't he tell you, he was born with six eyes, and he is the heir of the Wutiao family, one of the three royal families in the magic world."

Ling Yao was nervous and at a loss, "...I don't know."

Seeing that the King of Gold didn't speak any more, she asked in a low voice, "Grandpa Jin...how did you know I was calling him just now?"

Speaking of this, the King of Gold gave a rare smile, "Is it hard to guess? You stay with him every day, and you don't need the intelligence agency of the Time Court to investigate. Not only me, but also King Qing and King Chi A few days ago, Munakata came to ask me if you are too young to fall in love too early."

A few words made Ling Yao's cheeks feel hot, she kept shaking her head, and argued: "We are not in a relationship, we are good friends."

"Yeah." The King of Gold took a sip of tea, and when he put down the cup, he said slowly, "Actually, even if you're in love, you don't have to hide it from me. I'm not some pedantic antique, and I won't interfere with your freedom of love."

This, how does this feel and does not explain clearly.

Ling Yao also wanted to explain: "We are really good friends..."

Holding the teacup, the King of Gold said, "Forget it, I don't care about the young man's affairs, but if he bullies you, you can tell me, and I won't let you suffer."

Ling Yao froze on the spot, her face flushed with heat.

How do you feel... I didn't explain clearly at all...
