Retired savior rehired daily
Chapter 91 Competitor? [Double more in 1]
"Two fingers of Su Nuo have been collected, come back soon!"
Xia Youjie looked at the text displayed in the message column, and could almost imagine how desperate and helpless the person who sent this message was when he typed this text.
He sneered: "The efficiency has increased now? When I asked before, it didn't mean that there were insufficient manpower and no clues. It's not easy to find a little finger..."
——In short, is it just a bunch of excuses?
Why have two fingers been found in the past two days?
Could it be that you suddenly turned on and hung up?
These people from the association... don't their faces hurt?
Gojo Satoru casually threw the phone back into the changing basket, put on a bathrobe, and said:
"It's not necessarily a sudden increase in efficiency."
Xia Youjie understood: "You mean, they found this finger a long time ago, but they just kept procrastinating and refused to take it out?"
Gojo Satoru lowered his head and tied his yukata straps, "What else? We just came out to soak in the hot spring for a few days, and the search work over there suddenly progressed at a rapid pace... If you say it's a coincidence, do you believe it?"
Xia Youjie: "...I don't believe it."
Gojo Satoru: "Then it's over?"
It's just that this kind of delay doesn't necessarily mean that the Conjuration Association intends to violate the agreement, but it's more likely to be a test—to test how much Qiao Wen cares about the two-faced Nuo's fingers.
Su Nuo's fingers...it's really not easy to find, otherwise it wouldn't have been so many years, and only six of the twenty fingers were sealed in Ju Gaoli.
But you have to find it carefully, and the difficulty of collecting it is by no means as great as what the Conjuration Association said when it was looking for reasons to evade - after all, super-grade spells will more or less have a certain amount of magic power released, if the Conjuration Association If I really make up my mind, maybe within a year or two, I will be able to find all the remaining fourteen fingers.
I didn't do this before. First, there was no such large-scale collection of fingers. For this reason, it is necessary to stop some normal exorcism operations. Second, as mentioned before, the pressure to seal these recovered fingers is getting stronger. Bigger and bigger, the six fingers that were once stored in the curse high taboo library are sealed every time, which is already a big burden for the current magic association. If a few more fingers are recovered, it may not be a lot. The magician responsible for sealing the finger will continue to be drained of magic power.
As soon as the Conjuration Association got serious, within a few days, they had already found two of Su Nuo's fingers?
It's just that they would rather make great efforts to seal the fingers themselves than hand over the fingers to Qiao Wen for a long time, perhaps just to observe——
"Whether Xiao Qiao will go mad again because of their deliberate evasion."
Gojo Satoru said, and turned to look at Qiao Wen who had already changed into his bathrobe.
"Of course, Xiao Qiao can say that he got angry because the Conjuration Association cheated and cheated, and didn't do his best to fulfill the agreement, but in this way, he also sent a signal."
——Qiao Wen's finger on the two-faced Su Nuo is by no means just curious, as he said before, but he values it so much that even if he doesn't know the reason for his importance, it is enough to make people notice it Among them, there may be "opportunities to take advantage of", a dangerous signal.
Xia Youjie frowned in annoyance.
"What the hell are those guys thinking...why was this 'restraint' established in the first place? Didn't they have any idea?"
Didn't you all fall into other people's spells, tried countless methods and couldn't solve it, in order to save a dog's life, you had to bow your head to him and agreed to this exchange condition?
Now that the spells have been released, although the restraint has been established, because there is no real spell restraint, it makes you feel that there is another loophole to take advantage of?
what!
"Did they think that as long as they act carefully this time and don't get caught by Xiao Qiao's eye spell, they won't get that sleep spell again?"
Stupid or not!
Qiao Wen is not the only hypnotic technique available!
The five blue dragons who appeared in Ju Gaoli, the unlucky conjurer who just walked out of the ward a few days ago, and the Zenyuan Naozai who was said to have never left the gate of the Zenyuan house recently because of the loss of face... One by one, have the old guys from the Magic Society forgotten?
It's really healed, the scar forgets the pain, and the roc spreads its wings on the verge of death at the slightest chance...
Wujo Wutiao seemed to have seen through Xia Youjie's crazy complaints in his heart.
He chuckled: "Don't think of them as stupid - although stupid is really stupid, but they have learned a lesson that time, and they will never dare to bet their lives again."
Didn't see you?Qiao Wen didn't express his dissatisfaction clearly yet, he was just dragged out by Gojo Wu to soak in the hot spring for a few days, didn't he take the initiative to take out the two Su Nuo fingers?
"This is not just an excuse to call me and you back to Jugao, it is also a disguised form of giving in to Xiao Qiao."
——It seems to be saying, don't be angry, my lord, although we have found various reasons to prevaricate you, in fact, we are still working hard to fulfill the agreement secretly, but there is still a little bit of dissatisfaction at work, I don't want to let you achieve your goal so easily, but we are just making small troubles and causing you a little trouble, and we have no intention of doing more excessive things!No, as soon as you express your dissatisfaction, we will immediately offer our fingers!
"...Are you cheap?!" Xia Youjie was shocked.
He believed that the attitude of the Conjuration Association was similar to what Wujo Satoru said, but it was definitely not as cheap as his "translation"!
After all, old people still have to face. Even if the hardliners who "would rather die than surrender" were overwhelmed by the moderates who wanted to save their lives, and did not choose to continue head-to-head with Qiao Wen after the spell was unraveled, it would not be as Gojo Satoru said. For the sake of my life... flattery, right?
Or is it that he has been away from the magic world for too long, and the atmosphere in this circle has changed at some point?
Gojo Satoru understood his friend's shock.
after all--
"Jie, you became a special class later on, but you have been running around to complete the task, and you don't have much contact with the high-level..."
Without direct contact, Xia Youjie would not know how shameless some old guys can go.
Gojo Satoru's previous words were indeed suspected of deliberately vilifying them, but his artistic processing aside, in essence, they are not bad——
"They don't mind the means as long as the end can be achieved."
Anyway, it's not them who are ashamed.
"Let's go."
Gojo Satoru was a little lacking in interest.
"After soaking in that medicinal soup pool, I'm afraid we'll have to go back to Tokyo."
For the last little holiday time, don't mention those people and things that spoil the fun.
Otherwise, it would not be so much fun to play.
Xia Youjie: ...
Fine.
as long as you are happy.
The two hooked up shoulder to shoulder, and together with Qiao Wen, who was sitting on his shoulder with his lover, the three of them and one fox completely ignored the word "quick return" in a certain message, and leisurely followed the plan. Went to have dinner.
……
……
It was the afternoon after Gojo Satoru received the message when Qiao Wen and his party returned to Tokyo.
According to the original plan, I soaked in the medicinal soup that I had been thinking about for a long time, and I took several group photos in front of the store and sent them to I. The group of people who were not disturbed by the news at all are still there. I ate the last meal of hot spring cuisine locally, and then took the afternoon Shinkansen from Gunma Prefecture back to Tokyo.
The man who drove to the station to pick him up was a thin man wearing glasses. Qiao Wen had met him a few times before. His name was Yidizhi Jiegao. According to Gojo Wu, he was his and Xia Youjie's junior.
Qiao Wen couldn't help but look at Yi Dizhi a few more times at that time. He couldn't imagine that this tired-looking middle-aged man was actually younger than Gojo Wu and Xia Youjie.
Yizhi Jiegao seemed to be used to such surprised sights.
"I have indeed looked older than my peers since I was a child..."
He smiled, and didn't dare to say another reason - that is, Gojo Satoru is also more youthful than his peers, although he is not a standard baby face, but that beautiful young face is also very good at punching, not surprising Most people would believe that he was only in his early 20s if he walked down the street with a strange bandage or eye patch, wearing only a pair of sunglasses.
"Principal Night Moth is very angry."
On the way back to Jugao, Tokyo, Yidichi Jiegao kindly reminded an unreliable senior.
"Mr. Wujo didn't even say hello, and directly dragged Mr. Qiao Wen and Mr. Xia You to Qunma. The tasks originally assigned to you had to be urgently assigned to other conjurers nearby. The assistant supervisor in the school almost worked overtime for three consecutive nights..."
"Is this a complaint?" Gojo Satoru, who was sitting in the co-pilot, turned to look at his junior.
Yidizhi Jiegao was driving the car, unable to refute in a hurry, and was so anxious that a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead:
"No...of course not..."
"Ignore him, Yi Dizhi, I have to end my vacation early. This guy has nowhere to vent his grievances. He deliberately bullied you." Xia Youjie couldn't stand the fact that his honest junior was being molested maliciously by someone with a bad personality. He glanced at the latter coldly, and comforted the former with a gentle voice.
Yidizhi Jiegao and Gojo Satoru are also old acquaintances, he is just a little habitually nervous when facing Gojo Satoru, and he is not really afraid of this senior.
He smiled weakly at Xia Youjie in the rearview mirror:
"I know, Mr. Xia You. Thank you."
Xia Youjie rolled his eyes.
Yidichi Jiegao is one of the few people who looked at him without fear or vigilance after he "returned" to the magic world, although when he first met the other party, he heard the other party laugh at himself "because there is no fighting ability, so I can only stay behind and do some support work.” Xia Youjie felt that compared with some talented people, Yidizhi Jiegao made him feel much more comfortable when contacted.
When no longer judging others by strong or weak, no longer using magician or non-magician as the dividing line to distinguish the attitude towards others, but treat all people as "human beings" equally, and use a unified, universal Xia Youjie found that he could easily judge whether a person was good or bad.
If only I had discovered earlier that the world is actually that simple.
If only... I didn't impose such a big layer of restraint on myself.
Recently, he has been thinking about what he has been doing in the past ten years.
Obviously things didn't get that bad, and obviously many times, he actually knew in his heart that some of his thoughts were very absurd and completely unreasonable, but he still couldn't control them.
Can't help but think, it's all wrong.
Can't help but wonder what the "correct" development should be.
The result is getting deeper and deeper, going further and further away, if it wasn't for wandering around the door of the house countless times back then, until finally, seeing Jianren Nanami who brought Mimiko and Nanako to visit at home, and seeing the bright lights in the familiar house. There was a familiar light, and a familiar laughter came from it. In the night, a person hid in a dark corner where the light could not shine, watching his father and mother send the one big and two children out of the house, watching his mother squatting The lower body hugged the two children tenderly and affectionately, while the father stood beside him, looking at them with that introverted and warm smile that he had bathed in since he was a child, Xia Youjie really didn't know that day What will I do at night.
Something has been pushing him down the abyss.
But there is also something that has been dragging him upwards, preventing him from falling deeper.
Therefore, he has always seemed moody these years. He just issued an order to curse a certain rich man in the morning, forcing him to spend all his wealth and ask the Panxing Sect, which is already in his pocket, to help lift the curse. In the afternoon, he ordered his subordinates Stop planning, just because he saw in the noon news how many orphanages the rich family donated last year, and how many children showed genuine smiles on their faces...
He felt that he seemed to have been living in a muddle for the past ten years, and a voice kept urging him, go, do it according to your heart, kill all the "monkeys", and let this world usher in its due ending.
It urged itself, as if it wanted to release all the malice in its heart.
But there is another faint voice saying, don't give up!
Don't be disappointed in this world!Wait a little longer, wait a little longer.
Soon, soon...
What will it be?
Xia Youjie couldn't hear the last raving of that voice.
Until he saw Qiao Wen again when he was seriously injured and dying.
The moment his figure appeared in front of him, Xia Youjie seemed to hear the sound of flowers blooming in his heart.
All the evil thoughts disappeared, replaced by an unprecedented clarity of thoughts.
He originally thought that this was a sliver of realization that arose in his heart at the end of his life.
But after being rescued by Qiao Wen, it was discovered that it was not.
But with the appearance of Qiao Wen, the malice that had been haunting him before seemed to be completely subdued.
Without the influence of the chattering voice, Xia Youjie felt his mind was clearer than ever.
He would choose to give up his "righteousness" and return to the "righteous way" that he had abandoned, and he was indeed persuaded by Qiao Wen.
But it was the disappearance of the evil thoughts that had always lingered in his heart that made him break through the confusion and find himself more than Qiao Wen's words awakened the dreamer.
Xia Youjie always thought it might have something to do with Qiao Wen.
But Xia Youjie didn't know whether it was Qiao Wen's appearance that drove away the evil thoughts, or whether everything was really just a coincidence.
All he knew was that he wanted to find out the truth.
I want to know whether the evil thoughts that have been lingering in my heart really exist.
He had an intuition that maybe following Qiao Wen's side would allow him to find the biggest truth he wanted to find out.
This is the real reason why he insists on acting together with Qiao Wen even though he is feared and watched everywhere.
Otherwise, who is willing to work for the Magic Association?
Since the conjurer doesn't have to protect the non-conjurer, why doesn't he just slump in the curse high dormitory and live a leisurely life with clothes, hands, food and mouth?
Jowin was right about one thing.
Who can continue to be a social animal if they can retire early?
It's not like Nana Ming who has no choice but to beat workers.
[Qihai Jianren:? ? ?Have been offended! 】
……
……
Yidichi Jiegao parked the car in front of the teaching building.
"Mr. Gojo, Mr. Qiao Wen, Mr. Xia You, the representatives from the Magic Society are here with the principal right now."
After getting out of the car, he whispered to the three people behind him.
"The principal told me that after the three of you come back, please go to the principal's office as soon as possible to receive Su Nuo's finger, 'Tell Wu, don't make trouble for me, don't drag Qiao Wenjie and run to Nizi again to mess around!'——Principal That's what sir said."
Gojo Satoru, who really planned to do this: ...
"...boring." The bad teacher pouted, leaning on the back of his friend as if he had no bones, letting the other party drag him forward.
Xia Youjie was expressionless, stretched his legs back, and kicked a certain white-haired calf. The latter obviously possessed almost invincible defensive techniques, but he still pretended to be kicked, saying "It hurts so much!" Ah! Jie, you really use so much strength?!" Exaggeratedly complaining, he stretched out his foot and kicked back towards Xia Youjie.
Qiao Wen and Yi Zhijie Gao followed behind the two people who had returned to the days of male high school students, watching them kick me and kick you, fighting and fighting all the way to the principal's office.
"I-I'm really sorry."
Yidizhi Jiegao took out a handkerchief and pressed his sweaty forehead, and smiled weakly at Qiao Wen.
"Mr. Wutiao has always had this kind of character since before... This time Mr. Xia You came back, although he didn't tell anyone about it, he must be very happy... Back then... oh..."
Halfway through feeling, realizing that Qiao Wen is not a suitable person to express his feelings, Yidizhi Jiegao immediately sighed vaguely, and changed the subject stiffly:
"Speaking of which, the reason why everyone went to Qunma before was because you were injured, Mr. Qiao Wen? How is your injury? Do you need Miss Jiajin's help for some treatment?"
The topic I randomly picked up in a hurry, and after I said it, I realized that rather than changing the topic, it was more like mocking Qiao Wenwen and Gojo Satoru's lazy excuses for not being distracted. Even more powerful.
I thought we would be reprimanded by the other party - after all, this is an enhanced version of Gojo Satoru who will immediately take a lesson after being offended even if the opponent is the Magic Association. Unexpectedly, Qiao Wen just smiled and responded casually :
"Please take care of me, I have fully recovered."
While Yidizhi Jiegao breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but feel a feeling in his heart, "The rumors are really unbelievable. Based on the observations I have made a few times, Qiao Wen is quite gentle, and he is much easier to get along with than Gojo Satoru." , I don’t know if it will be proved to be an illusion in the follow-up...
Gojo Satoru and Xia Youjie's fight continued until the door of the principal's office.
After Yidi Zhijie announced the arrival of several people with a loud voice, and got the permission of Noctua Moth Zhengdao, they opened the door and entered the principal's office.
In the room, besides the night moth Zhengdao, there were also three strange conjurers sitting in the room.
The one sitting in the middle was holding a wooden box covered with talisman papers. Seeing Qiao Wen and the others walk into the principal's office, he couldn't help showing a relieved expression on his face.
He didn't even exchange greetings with Qiao Wen, but after Ye Mo Zhengdao briefly introduced the identities of the three and explained their purpose of coming, he immediately handed over the box in his hand to Qiao Wen:
"According to the agreement, these are the two Nuo fingers recently found by the Conjuration Association. Now they are officially handed over to you. Please confirm and sign this document."
Qiao Wen was a little surprised by the other party's overly eager attitude.
However, he just glanced at the three conjurers on the opposite side, then simply took the box, and with a flick of his hand, the talisman papers sealed on it shattered one after another as if cut by a sharp knife, making the box capable of being used by others. Open easily.
The three conjurers were obviously taken aback.
When he looked at Qiao Wen again, there was a bit of surprise and scrutiny in his eyes.
Qiao Wen didn't bother to pay attention to their reactions.
He opened the lid of the box, and saw that there were indeed two strange fingers lying in the box that exuded the same aura as the Su Nuo fingers he had taken from the taboo before, and looked very ominous, so he stopped looking at them and called out Said:
"【ingot】!"
The golden chain broke through the air, wrapped around the wooden box, turned up and down, left and right several times, and wrapped the box airtightly. In an instant, the strong spell power emitted by Su Nuo's fingers disappeared in the room. without a trace.
Qiao Wen casually threw the box that had been "sealed" by the ingot card into the space of the night hat, and accompanied the other six fingers that were sealed in the empty candy box (?).
"I did receive the item." He nodded to the three conjurers who were dumbfounded, and picked up a pen to sign his name on the document in front of him.
"If there is nothing else, you can leave."
Although I didn't have a good impression of the Conjuration Association, the three conjurers did not speak rudely, and their attitudes were quite polite. They had never participated in any attacks against Qiao Wen before, and Qiao Wen was only indifferent to them. Gentle is not so cold, and of course it will not embarrass them.
The three looked at each other.
The conjurer who was holding the box before reached out and put away the document that had signed Qiao Wen's name.
"Since that's the case, we won't bother you any more."
As he spoke, he stood up first.
"If there is no accident, the three of us will come to deliver things next time. I hope to have a pleasant cooperation with you."
Slightly bowing their heads in greeting, after saying goodbye to everyone, the three of them, escorted by Ye Mo Zhengdao, walked to the door of the principal's office.
It's just that when they were almost at the door, the leader stopped again, his expression changed, and he finally turned around and looked at Qiao Wen:
"There's one thing, I think, you should know."
Qiao Wen didn't move much, but raised his eyebrows slightly:
"Please say."
The man pursed his lips, hesitated again, and finally spoke:
"Besides the Conjuration Association, there seem to be other people... who are also collecting Su Nuo's fingers."
The author has something to say: proofreading is complete!
By the way, Su Nuo's fingers are really not particularly difficult to find. In the original book, Huzi was fed more than a dozen fingers in minutes...
5t5: Don't want to work, want to take a vacation
Xia Youjie: I don’t want to work, I just want to find out the truth
Qiao Wen: I don't want to work, but thinking about it, my work seems to be similar to going on vacation in another world...?Hmm... [Falling into thought
Worker Nana Ming:? ? ?Get the hell out of you!
Su Nuo: ...candy box?You put my fingers in a candy box? ? ?Think it's a biscuit, bastard! 【Incompetent Fury
Qiao Xiaowen: Why are you so angry... I even put the jade of the four souls in this box... [Nai Luo:? ? ?

Thanks to the little angel who threw the grenade: 1 wood sample;
Thanks to the little angels of the irrigation nutrient solution: 20 bottles of Jinghua Shuiyue; 10 bottles of Moqi, tea stuffed steamed buns; 2 bottles of aarchy;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
Xia Youjie looked at the text displayed in the message column, and could almost imagine how desperate and helpless the person who sent this message was when he typed this text.
He sneered: "The efficiency has increased now? When I asked before, it didn't mean that there were insufficient manpower and no clues. It's not easy to find a little finger..."
——In short, is it just a bunch of excuses?
Why have two fingers been found in the past two days?
Could it be that you suddenly turned on and hung up?
These people from the association... don't their faces hurt?
Gojo Satoru casually threw the phone back into the changing basket, put on a bathrobe, and said:
"It's not necessarily a sudden increase in efficiency."
Xia Youjie understood: "You mean, they found this finger a long time ago, but they just kept procrastinating and refused to take it out?"
Gojo Satoru lowered his head and tied his yukata straps, "What else? We just came out to soak in the hot spring for a few days, and the search work over there suddenly progressed at a rapid pace... If you say it's a coincidence, do you believe it?"
Xia Youjie: "...I don't believe it."
Gojo Satoru: "Then it's over?"
It's just that this kind of delay doesn't necessarily mean that the Conjuration Association intends to violate the agreement, but it's more likely to be a test—to test how much Qiao Wen cares about the two-faced Nuo's fingers.
Su Nuo's fingers...it's really not easy to find, otherwise it wouldn't have been so many years, and only six of the twenty fingers were sealed in Ju Gaoli.

"Did they think that as long as they act carefully this time and don't get caught by Xiao Qiao's eye spell, they won't get that sleep spell again?"
Stupid or not!
Qiao Wen is not the only hypnotic technique available!

Didn't see you?Qiao Wen didn't express his dissatisfaction clearly yet, he was just dragged out by Gojo Wu to soak in the hot spring for a few days, didn't he take the initiative to take out the two Su Nuo fingers?

"...Are you cheap?!" Xia Youjie was shocked.
He believed that the attitude of the Conjuration Association was similar to what Wujo Satoru said, but it was definitely not as cheap as his "translation"!
After all, old people still have to face. Even if the hardliners who "would rather die than surrender" were overwhelmed by the moderates who wanted to save their lives, and did not choose to continue head-to-head with Qiao Wen after the spell was unraveled, it would not be as Gojo Satoru said.

The two hooked up shoulder to shoulder, and together with Qiao Wen, who was sitting on his shoulder with his lover, the three of them and one fox completely ignored the word "quick return" in a certain message, and leisurely followed the plan. Went to have dinner.

It was the afternoon after Gojo Satoru received the message when Qiao Wen and his party returned to Tokyo.

"Ignore him, Yi Dizhi, I have to end my vacation early. This guy has nowhere to vent his grievances. He deliberately bullied you." Xia Youjie couldn't stand the fact that his honest junior was being molested maliciously by someone with a bad personality. He glanced at the latter coldly, and comforted the former with a gentle voice.
Yidizhi Jiegao and Gojo Satoru are also old acquaintances, he is just a little habitually nervous when facing Gojo Satoru, and he is not really afraid of this senior.
He smiled weakly at Xia Youjie in the rearview mirror:
"I know, Mr. Xia You. Thank you."
Xia Youjie rolled his eyes.
Yidichi Jiegao is one of the few people who looked at him without fear or vigilance after he "returned" to the magic world, although when he first met the other party, he heard the other party laugh at himself "because there is no fighting ability, so I can only stay behind and do some support work.” Xia Youjie felt that compared with some talented people, Yidizhi Jiegao made him feel much more comfortable when contacted.
When no longer judging others by strong or weak, no longer using magician or non-magician as the dividing line to distinguish the attitude towards others, but treat all people as "human beings" equally, and use a unified, universal Xia Youjie found that he could easily judge whether a person was good or bad.
If only I had discovered earlier that the world is actually that simple.
If only... I didn't impose such a big layer of restraint on myself.
Recently, he has been thinking about what he has been doing in the past ten years.
Obviously things didn't get that bad, and obviously many times, he actually knew in his heart that some of his thoughts were very absurd and completely unreasonable, but he still couldn't control them.
Can't help but think, it's all wrong.
Can't help but wonder what the "correct" development should be.
The result is getting deeper and deeper, going further and further away, if it wasn't for wandering around the door of the house countless times back then, until finally, seeing Jianren Nanami who brought Mimiko and Nanako to visit at home, and seeing the bright lights in the familiar house. There was a familiar light, and a familiar laughter came from it. In the night, a person hid in a dark corner where the light could not shine, watching his father and mother send the one big and two children out of the house, watching his mother squatting The lower body hugged the two children tenderly and affectionately, while the father stood beside him, looking at them with that introverted and warm smile that he had bathed in since he was a child, Xia Youjie really didn't know that day What will I do at night.
Something has been pushing him down the abyss.
But there is also something that has been dragging him upwards, preventing him from falling deeper.
Therefore, he has always seemed moody these years. He just issued an order to curse a certain rich man in the morning, forcing him to spend all his wealth and ask the Panxing Sect, which is already in his pocket, to help lift the curse. In the afternoon, he ordered his subordinates Stop planning, just because he saw in the noon news how many orphanages the rich family donated last year, and how many children showed genuine smiles on their faces...
He felt that he seemed to have been living in a muddle for the past ten years, and a voice kept urging him, go, do it according to your heart, kill all the "monkeys", and let this world usher in its due ending.
It urged itself, as if it wanted to release all the malice in its heart.
But there is another faint voice saying, don't give up!
Don't be disappointed in this world!Wait a little longer, wait a little longer.
Soon, soon...
What will it be?
Xia Youjie couldn't hear the last raving of that voice.
Until he saw Qiao Wen again when he was seriously injured and dying.
The moment his figure appeared in front of him, Xia Youjie seemed to hear the sound of flowers blooming in his heart.
All the evil thoughts disappeared, replaced by an unprecedented clarity of thoughts.
He originally thought that this was a sliver of realization that arose in his heart at the end of his life.
But after being rescued by Qiao Wen, it was discovered that it was not.
But with the appearance of Qiao Wen, the malice that had been haunting him before seemed to be completely subdued.
Without the influence of the chattering voice, Xia Youjie felt his mind was clearer than ever.
He would choose to give up his "righteousness" and return to the "righteous way" that he had abandoned, and he was indeed persuaded by Qiao Wen.
But it was the disappearance of the evil thoughts that had always lingered in his heart that made him break through the confusion and find himself more than Qiao Wen's words awakened the dreamer.
Xia Youjie always thought it might have something to do with Qiao Wen.
But Xia Youjie didn't know whether it was Qiao Wen's appearance that drove away the evil thoughts, or whether everything was really just a coincidence.
All he knew was that he wanted to find out the truth.
I want to know whether the evil thoughts that have been lingering in my heart really exist.
He had an intuition that maybe following Qiao Wen's side would allow him to find the biggest truth he wanted to find out.
This is the real reason why he insists on acting together with Qiao Wen even though he is feared and watched everywhere.
Otherwise, who is willing to work for the Magic Association?
Since the conjurer doesn't have to protect the non-conjurer, why doesn't he just slump in the curse high dormitory and live a leisurely life with clothes, hands, food and mouth?
Jowin was right about one thing.
Who can continue to be a social animal if they can retire early?
It's not like Nana Ming who has no choice but to beat workers.
[Qihai Jianren:? ? ?Have been offended! 】
……
……
Yidichi Jiegao parked the car in front of the teaching building.
"Mr. Gojo, Mr. Qiao Wen, Mr. Xia You, the representatives from the Magic Society are here with the principal right now."
After getting out of the car, he whispered to the three people behind him.
"The principal told me that after the three of you come back, please go to the principal's office as soon as possible to receive Su Nuo's finger, 'Tell Wu, don't make trouble for me, don't drag Qiao Wenjie and run to Nizi again to mess around!'——Principal That's what sir said."
Gojo Satoru, who really planned to do this: ...
"...boring." The bad teacher pouted, leaning on the back of his friend as if he had no bones, letting the other party drag him forward.
Xia Youjie was expressionless, stretched his legs back, and kicked a certain white-haired calf. The latter obviously possessed almost invincible defensive techniques, but he still pretended to be kicked, saying "It hurts so much!" Ah! Jie, you really use so much strength?!" Exaggeratedly complaining, he stretched out his foot and kicked back towards Xia Youjie.
Qiao Wen and Yi Zhijie Gao followed behind the two people who had returned to the days of male high school students, watching them kick me and kick you, fighting and fighting all the way to the principal's office.
"I-I'm really sorry."
Yidizhi Jiegao took out a handkerchief and pressed his sweaty forehead, and smiled weakly at Qiao Wen.
"Mr. Wutiao has always had this kind of character since before... This time Mr. Xia You came back, although he didn't tell anyone about it, he must be very happy... Back then... oh..."
Halfway through feeling, realizing that Qiao Wen is not a suitable person to express his feelings, Yidizhi Jiegao immediately sighed vaguely, and changed the subject stiffly:
"Speaking of which, the reason why everyone went to Qunma before was because you were injured, Mr. Qiao Wen? How is your injury? Do you need Miss Jiajin's help for some treatment?"
The topic I randomly picked up in a hurry, and after I said it, I realized that rather than changing the topic, it was more like mocking Qiao Wenwen and Gojo Satoru's lazy excuses for not being distracted. Even more powerful.
I thought we would be reprimanded by the other party - after all, this is an enhanced version of Gojo Satoru who will immediately take a lesson after being offended even if the opponent is the Magic Association. Unexpectedly, Qiao Wen just smiled and responded casually :
"Please take care of me, I have fully recovered."
While Yidizhi Jiegao breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but feel a feeling in his heart, "The rumors are really unbelievable. Based on the observations I have made a few times, Qiao Wen is quite gentle, and he is much easier to get along with than Gojo Satoru." , I don’t know if it will be proved to be an illusion in the follow-up...
Gojo Satoru and Xia Youjie's fight continued until the door of the principal's office.
After Yidi Zhijie announced the arrival of several people with a loud voice, and got the permission of Noctua Moth Zhengdao, they opened the door and entered the principal's office.
In the room, besides the night moth Zhengdao, there were also three strange conjurers sitting in the room.
The one sitting in the middle was holding a wooden box covered with talisman papers. Seeing Qiao Wen and the others walk into the principal's office, he couldn't help showing a relieved expression on his face.
He didn't even exchange greetings with Qiao Wen, but after Ye Mo Zhengdao briefly introduced the identities of the three and explained their purpose of coming, he immediately handed over the box in his hand to Qiao Wen:
"According to the agreement, these are the two Nuo fingers recently found by the Conjuration Association. Now they are officially handed over to you. Please confirm and sign this document."
Qiao Wen was a little surprised by the other party's overly eager attitude.
However, he just glanced at the three conjurers on the opposite side, then simply took the box, and with a flick of his hand, the talisman papers sealed on it shattered one after another as if cut by a sharp knife, making the box capable of being used by others. Open easily.
The three conjurers were obviously taken aback.
When he looked at Qiao Wen again, there was a bit of surprise and scrutiny in his eyes.
Qiao Wen didn't bother to pay attention to their reactions.
He opened the lid of the box, and saw that there were indeed two strange fingers lying in the box that exuded the same aura as the Su Nuo fingers he had taken from the taboo before, and looked very ominous, so he stopped looking at them and called out Said:
"【ingot】!"
The golden chain broke through the air, wrapped around the wooden box, turned up and down, left and right several times, and wrapped the box airtightly. In an instant, the strong spell power emitted by Su Nuo's fingers disappeared in the room. without a trace.
Qiao Wen casually threw the box that had been "sealed" by the ingot card into the space of the night hat, and accompanied the other six fingers that were sealed in the empty candy box (?).
"I did receive the item." He nodded to the three conjurers who were dumbfounded, and picked up a pen to sign his name on the document in front of him.
"If there is nothing else, you can leave."
Although I didn't have a good impression of the Conjuration Association, the three conjurers did not speak rudely, and their attitudes were quite polite. They had never participated in any attacks against Qiao Wen before, and Qiao Wen was only indifferent to them. Gentle is not so cold, and of course it will not embarrass them.
The three looked at each other.
The conjurer who was holding the box before reached out and put away the document that had signed Qiao Wen's name.
"Since that's the case, we won't bother you any more."
As he spoke, he stood up first.
"If there is no accident, the three of us will come to deliver things next time. I hope to have a pleasant cooperation with you."
Slightly bowing their heads in greeting, after saying goodbye to everyone, the three of them, escorted by Ye Mo Zhengdao, walked to the door of the principal's office.
It's just that when they were almost at the door, the leader stopped again, his expression changed, and he finally turned around and looked at Qiao Wen:
"There's one thing, I think, you should know."
Qiao Wen didn't move much, but raised his eyebrows slightly:
"Please say."
The man pursed his lips, hesitated again, and finally spoke:
"Besides the Conjuration Association, there seem to be other people... who are also collecting Su Nuo's fingers."
The author has something to say: proofreading is complete!
By the way, Su Nuo's fingers are really not particularly difficult to find. In the original book, Huzi was fed more than a dozen fingers in minutes...
5t5: Don't want to work, want to take a vacation
Xia Youjie: I don’t want to work, I just want to find out the truth
Qiao Wen: I don't want to work, but thinking about it, my work seems to be similar to going on vacation in another world...?Hmm... [Falling into thought
Worker Nana Ming:? ? ?Get the hell out of you!
Su Nuo: ...candy box?You put my fingers in a candy box? ? ?Think it's a biscuit, bastard! 【Incompetent Fury
Qiao Xiaowen: Why are you so angry... I even put the jade of the four souls in this box... [Nai Luo:? ? ?
