attack on rotten oranges

Chapter 55 February 1995, 11

In an instant, Bunbu Shuhei and Xia Youjie were enveloped in the field expanded by the curse spirit.

It was pitch black all around, and the edge of the field could not be seen. Bunbu Shuhei and Xia Youjie leaned against each other, wary of possible attacks.

It was supposed to be the location of the screen in the movie theater, just like the curtain of the theater was pulled open, a tall and thin figure appeared in the crimson light that was slowly filling up in the background.

The figure stood motionless in the red light, like a puppet.Bunbu Shuhei and Xia Youjie stood still and watched from afar.

"The clothes are the same as those worn by the last victim." Shuhei Bunbe saw the similarity at a glance.

"Slap Wu when we get back." Xia Youjie's nerves were tense, but his tone was still relaxed.

"That's right, he should be beaten up." Bunbu Shuhei agreed, and the text reserves in his pocket turned into spells, spreading silently under his feet.

Curse power comes from curses, so any actions of the conjurer may have curses attached.

Gojo Satoru just yelled to catch the [Double Body], and they encountered the super curse spirit.Not wanting to admit that they were unlucky, Bunbu Shuhei and Xia Youjie unanimously agreed to pin the pot on Gojo Satoru who "accidentally cursed them"

"Pfft!" "Swish!"

The giant mouth of the curse spirit closed, and the string of the spell swept across.

Three and a half ghosts were left on the ground.The appearance of these two secretly attacking ghosts seemed to be wrapped in a layer of gray mist. They were thin and long, and their bodies were as soft as snakes, as if they had no joints.

"Spit it out." Xia Youjie patted the curse spirit on the head.

The curse spirit obediently spit out half of the ghost in its mouth, reuniting the upper and lower halves of the ghost that attacked Xia Youjie.

With the help of the dark red light in the background, they noticed a sudden change in the facial features-less face of the ghost whose upper body had just been spit out.

"..." Seeing the fog dissipate, wriggling granulation appeared on the ghost's face.In just a few seconds, the granulation split to form facial features, and the ghost's face began to resemble Xia Youjie's.

Bunbu Shuhei turned the ghost that attacked him and was cut in two by the string of the spell, and saw a pale and familiar face, which was himself.

Just as they lowered their heads to check, two more ghost figures rushed up from the darkness, and were blocked and killed by the curse spirit and the string.The ghosts went forward one after another, and each time there were a fixed number of two, one on the left and one on the right were allocated to Xia Youjie and Bunbu Shuhei.

In order to keep the battery life, Xia Youjie asked Bunbu Shuhei to accept the spell, and only asked the spell spirit to clean up the surrounding area.

"The intensity is not high." Xia Youjie commented, "But they are more and more similar to us."

Indeed, the imitation of their ghosts is not limited to their facial features. The ghosts that appeared later have been able to successfully simulate their hairstyles and heights, and gradually appeared on their bodies in the style of high school uniforms.

"We can't separate." Xia Youjie frowned, "Once we separate, they might sneak in."

"It's 【Double Body】." Bunbu Shuhei said in a low voice, "The 'other self' of the urban legend."

"In the beginning, it was said that witnessing a double body was an omen of death. Later, as time evolved, the double body became the 'another possibility' of a human being, a monster that would try to kill the original owner and replace it."

"There is also a saying that the double body is produced by people's dissatisfaction and regret for themselves, and will live instead of the original owner, trying to live the life the original owner wanted."

"The name of the domain is Polina Furan, which is the transliteration of Nirvana in Sanskrit." The top student Xia Youjie has a lot of theoretical knowledge, and he has kept up with Shuhei's deduction, "This mantra may be the latter case. It is a metaphor for the new life where the double body replaces the original owner."

"It's disgusting enough."

"..." Wenbu Shuhei asked, "If I ask you now if you have any regrets about the past, wouldn't it be too late?"

"Of course it's too late." Xia Youjie was speechless, "Besides, who can have no regrets about the past?"

"Then we have to be careful about its sure-hit technique." Bunbu Shuhei sighed, "I guess its technique will be related to past regrets."

"Yeah." Xia Youjie responded, he didn't worry much about himself, because he thought that his past was just an "ordinary" life of ordinary people, and it didn't hurt to have a little regret.

But Xiuping...Xia Youjie secretly raised his attention to his companions.

"This is a low-level curse that was assimilated and devoured by [Double Body], not a spell in the domain." Shuhei Bunbe kicked the fragments of ghost shadow that had not dissipated under his feet, "We need to find the body of the curse spirit."

Speaking of the main body, the two exchanged glances, and then attacked the figure under the red light at the same time.

"Hehehe." The moment before the attack landed on the figure, the figure tilted its head and laughed sharply, "Why don't you accept another possibility?"

"Is the dream not beautiful enough? Or is it because the reality is not cruel enough?"

"But the last one, he is very satisfied?"

Its piercing laughter echoed in the space, and Xia Youjie and Bunbu Shuhei's expressions turned serious: This curse is stronger than they imagined.

Among the group of four in the high school, only Gojo Wu has really faced the super magic spirit.And the last time I faced Chuya Nakahara, because the opponent had no desire to be hostile, the pressure I felt was not obvious.

But this time, the suffocating malice of the super-level curse spirit was overwhelmed, as if the air suddenly became thick, and Shuhei Bunbu and Xia Youjie had difficulty breathing for a moment.

Xia Youjie and Bunbu Shuhei stood together, their spell power surging and ready to go.

"No matter who is attacked first, try to delay the time, and the other party will try their best to exorcise the curse spirit." Bunbu Shuhei quickly whispered.

"No, I'm here to attract..." Xia Youjie retorted hastily.

However, before Xia Youjie could finish speaking, the figure tugged at the clothes it had copied from the last victim, and the smile on its face grew wider and wider. At last, the eyes popped out, and a crack across the entire face appeared from the corner of the mouth. All turned and torn apart, and the blood-red tongue was still jumping around surrounded by a circle of white teeth——

"come on!"

"Into the sweet dreams of the past!"

"Calmly be another self!"

Its arms elongated suddenly, as if it was going to "hug" Shuhei Bunbube.

In the opponent's domain, the spells it applies to the domain must hit!Sweat dripped from Bunbu Shuhei's forehead.

"[Spell Awakening Mirror]!" Shuhei Bunbube's mirror image appeared on the trajectory of the magic spirit's arm, and he himself rolled and fled.

Bunbu Shuhei wanted to use the mirror image to bear the damage in exchange for his cooperation with Xia Youjie to exorcise the curse spirit as soon as possible.

however--

The cursed arm passed through the chest of the mirror image without any hindrance, and rushed towards Xia Youjie!

"Jay!"

***

Xia Youjie found himself turned into a ghost.

He couldn't control his actions, so he fell behind a black car not too far away.

The car was quite standard, with no distinctive features, no different from the cars that the magic world rationed to many auxiliary supervisors.

If you want to talk about its characteristics, you can only say that its style is very old and outdated.

The vehicle stopped in front of the house with the "Bunbu" plate, and a gray-haired lady in a kimono got in and out of the driver's seat.With a soft smile, she opened the door of the back seat and released the two children.

These two children should be siblings.The older sister has lighter hair, a beautiful smooth silver-gray color, while the younger brother has darker hair, like a little penguin with unfaded fluff.

Xia Youjie noticed that the siblings had exactly the same, clear pale golden pupils, and saw his future outline from the boy's face, and he was sure—this was Bunbu Shuhei when he was a child.

Recalling the whole process of being hit by the spell, Xia Youjie guessed that the spell of the [Double Body] spell needs to act on the body and spirit at the same time - reading the past of the flesh and body to construct illusions, and then pulling the spirit into it. In the illusion.

Although Shuhei Bunbe's mirror image constructed by [Mirror] provided a target, Xia Youjie, who was closer to the mirror image, was hit immediately because of the lack of spiritual body in it.

Alas, it seems that I have entered Xiuping's memories... Xia Youjie felt a headache.

I hope Shuhei will forgive me for infringing on his privacy.

But thinking of the frenzied speech of the curse [Double Body], Xia Youjie also breathed a sigh of relief—to avoid "becoming another self" after being hit by the spell, one must not interfere with the "past".

Bunbu Shuhei has always been brooding about the accident that year. His goal in entering the world of magic is also to avenge his relatives. There is no guarantee that he will not fall into the trap of the magic spirit. Now that he is a bystander, he should be much safer.

The siblings are both wearing brightly colored kimonos. The girl's pattern is pink and white cherry blossoms, which symbolizes purity and enthusiasm, while the boy's pattern is hemp leaf pattern, which symbolizes healthy growth.

Xiao Bunbu Shuhei tripped over the hem of his clothes when climbing out of the car, and it was a little difficult, but fortunately, an older sister helped the younger brother who was acting recklessly.

The older sister took the younger brother's hand and walked towards the gate. The lady in kimono (Xia Youjie guessed that she was Shuhei Bunbube's mother) brushed up the broken hair at the temples with her hands, and watched the interaction between the siblings with a smile, her eyes loving and gentle.

Xia Youjie understood that the provider of the memories was Bunbu Shuhei, so he naturally couldn't stay too far away from him, so he said "Excuse me" in his heart, and followed the mother and son into the house.

At the entrance, there was already a white-haired silver fox dog waiting there wagging its tail.When it saw its master coming back, it jumped up and down excitedly, circling around the three of them.

"Yukutaro! Sit down!" The girl hugged the pet's neck and comforted it, "Calm down! You'll knock Shuhei down!"

"Sister!" the boy protested with reddish ears, "That's all in the past! I've grown taller again!"

"You play with Yukijiro first, and I'll help my mother make red bean rice." My sister dragged the young Bunbu Shuhei into the bedroom, and gave him a fluffy curse and a box of red and white candies.

Red bean rice?And this is Chitose Candy?Xia Youjie saw the time displayed on the calendar: November 1995, 11.

It turned out to be Seven Five Three.Xia Youjie reacted.This is a festival in which three-, five-, and seven-year-old children in the island nation wear exquisite kimonos and go to shrines to pray for healthy growth.

"..." Bunbu Shuhei, whom Xia Youjie knew, was 15 years old this year. According to him, the accident happened ten years ago.

Xia Youjie watched the interaction between the seven-year-old girl and the five-year-old boy in the past, feeling heavy in his heart, and already had a premonition.

There is also one of the long-haired cursed Xia Youjie, which also seems to be a cursed spirit produced by the plush phobia. It is usually of a low level and the harm is very small.And this curse is a level [-] curse spirit that has been subdued, and it hardly poses any threat.

But even so, a child who has just awakened from the spell can skillfully manipulate a fourth-level spell spirit, her talent is already amazing.

Because of this, Xia Youjie who knows the future feels even more regretful...

"Don't coax me like a child!" The boy took the curse angrily with a candy in his mouth, and plucked its long hair, "Why didn't Yukitaro accompany me."

"Give up, mom and I won't allow you and Yukitaro to be alone in the bedroom." The girl put her waist in her arms, full of momentum, "you two will fight if you don't pay attention."

"And you can't even beat Yuutaro." My sister sighed bitterly.

To Xia Youjie's surprise, Bunbu Shuhei was not a strong side in his childhood.

The boy puffed his cheeks because of the candy, and he actually acquiesced in his statement that "he can't even beat a dog", and mumbled in a low voice, saying: "I don't know how to use spells yet? Besides, it's enough to have an older sister at home." ah……"

The words are full of trust in the family, and the smell of salted fish that makes people laugh and cry.Looking at the series of performances after entering the house, we can know that Shuhei Kobunbe may be more concerned about his height than his future strength.

The two siblings are sitting side by side by the bed. The silver fox dog named Yuktaro is lying at the elder sister's feet, flicking its tail from left to right, while the fluffy curse is taken aside by the younger brother.

Hearing the younger brother's speech, the elder sister's eyes widened, she turned to the boy, then pinched his cheek, and pulled hard.

"How can there be such a stupid child like you in our family?" The girl rubbed her brother's little face vigorously, "Only your strength is really yours, you know?"

"Oh! It hurts!" Shuhei Kobunbube struggled.

So the girl let go of her hand and turned it into a hug. She held her brother's head, looked down at the boy's eyes, and said very seriously, "Xiuhei, you have the power of magic. Father also said that you will definitely be able to awaken the spell."

"Mom and Dad are very hard, because grandparents are ordinary people, so we can't live in the ancestral house, and Dad still needs to go very far to a very dangerous task."

"Only when we grow up and become stronger can we help our parents."

"You don't like hearing those people laugh at Mom either, do you?"

The boy "Kala" bit the candy and sighed: "I understand."

"Those annoying ghosts who point fingers at mom and dad are very annoying, so we need to use our spells to help dad have confidence."

"But it's enough to have a sister now! Dad doesn't really want to move into the ancestral house!"

He complained about serious topics in childish words, frowning like a little grown-up.

Xia Youjie was a little surprised by the conversation between the siblings.I don't know if it's because of being in a family of conjurers, the Bunbu Shuhei siblings have shown a precocious intelligence that is different from ordinary children.

Moreover, they are all very talented...

Xia Youjie imagined the future they should have, and felt deep regret for Wenbu Shuhei.

But Xia Youjie still couldn't do anything.

However, even if he wanted to do something, there was nothing he could do.

If it was Bunbu Shuhei who was hit last, his spiritual body should have appeared in his five-year-old body, but Xia You Jieben did not exist in Bunbu Shuhei's memories.

So he can only be a ghost on the sidelines honestly, waiting for Shuhei from the Ministry of Education to remove the curse and rescue him.

Xia Youjie has no doubt that Shuhei Bunbu will win.

"Youhui!" came the mother's call.

"Coming!" My sister jumped off the edge of the bed, patted Bunbe Shuhei on the head, and took Yukitaro with her out of the bedroom.Before leaving, I didn't forget to close the bedroom door tightly.

Xia Youjie now knows that her sister's name is Bunbu Youe.

"My sister is so annoying, so worry about me." Waiting for her sister to go out, Xiaobunbu Shuhei whispered to himself.

Immediately, he also jumped off the edge of the bed, and slapped the plush mantra in his hand on the sunlit floor, then sat on the mantra, eating candy and reading picture books.

This is a self-made handmade picture book, expressing the common sense of the magic world with vivid stories and pictures, in which the warm fairy tales, bright colors and delicate brushstrokes are different from the magic world under the general understanding exist.

Xia Youjie noticed that the author of the cover said "Love Your Parents" - this is the magic enlightenment teaching material carefully prepared by Wenbu Shuhei's parents for their children.

This is caring, caring, and the unspoken deep love parents have for their children.

Xia Youjie pursed his lips: However, due to the impermanence and injustice of fate, his friend could not grow up with the love of his parents and embrace warmth in the end.

Because Shuhei Bunbu was always in the bedroom when he was young, he naturally had no information about other places in his memory. Xia Youjie tried several times, but he couldn't leave this space.

So, he could only hear the sudden ringing of the doorbell, Bunbu Shuhei's mother opened the door to welcome the guests, and then the rustling sound of conversation...

The conversation grew louder and turned into a heated argument.

Xiaobunbu Shuhei put down the picture book, frowned and looked at the door of the bedroom, with a hesitant expression - he didn't know if this was an inappropriate "adults' moment" for him to appear.

Suddenly, an unfamiliar spell burst out, and there was a dull crash in the living room.

What followed was the girl's exclamation and cry "Mom!" and the silver fox dog's fierce barking.

"Run! Youhui! Run!" Hearing his mother's suppressed painful voice, the boy rushed to the door.

After half a whine, the silver fox dog's barking stopped abruptly.

In the living room, there were constant sounds of fighting and crashing.

"Mom! Ah!" sister Bunbu Yue screamed.

"There are paintings!"

It was loud for a few seconds, then completely silent.

Xia Youjie followed behind the flustered boy, watching the five-year-old Shuhei Bunbubu rush out of the bedroom, across the corridor, and——

Face the harsh reality.

Xia Youjie closed his eyes hard, unable to bear to look directly.

"mom, Mom, Mom?"

"Mother?"

The mother, who had just released the pan, fell on the edge of the living room. There were impact marks on the wall behind her, and the left half of her body disappeared completely, leaving only shocking wounds.

However, even so, she still opened her eyes wide and stretched out her only remaining right hand to the door before she died...

Her child, Bunbu Yue, was there.

Following his mother's guidance, the boy walked around the silver fox dog that had lost half of its head, and found a piece of pink hem.

He pushed away the body of the man he didn't know, and found his sister who was lying silently on the ground.

On top of the pink cherry blossoms, bright red flowers bloomed again.

This bright red flower started from the girl's neck and throat, and spread down warmly and brilliantly, passed through the chest and abdomen, and spread across the floor...

"Sister?" Bunbu Shuhei felt the warmth in his hand, but no matter how he sealed it with his hand, he couldn't stop the safflower from blooming bustlingly...

The girl in his arms can no longer open her eyes to see the world...

The boy hugged his sister and knelt in the ever-expanding pool of blood.

The brain numbness caused by the excessive impact soon passed, and he folded his arms, crying hoarsely.

The candy in Shuhei Bunbe's pocket slipped out, and the red and white candies melted into blood.

And the sweetness of the remaining candies seems to be tainted with the special smell of blood...

Standing beside the young Bunbu Shuhei, Xia Youjie stretched out his hand hesitantly, but he could only helplessly let the phantom shadow of his fingers pass through the boy's shoulder.

"!" The next moment, Xia Youjie suddenly raised his head.

is a curse!

Behind Shuhei Bunbu who wept, the curse that caused the current situation showed his fangs again...

Xia Youjie forgot his determination and tried to summon the magic spirit to protect the boy, but found that he could not use the magic power in his current state...

Blood splattered.

The young Bunbu Shuhei sobbed and looked back, showing tears all over his face.

A hand with sharp claws on its fingertips stretched out, carefully wiped away his tears and the purple-black blood of the curse spirit that had just splashed on it, and then covered Shuhei Bunbe's eyes——

"Don't look, don't look!" My sister's familiar voice came, but instead of the lively sunshine of the past, she begged with tears.

"She" covered her brother's eyes, led him up and walked to the door, then pushed him out forcefully—

"Go to Dad! Go to the police!"

"You are not allowed to come back without Dad!"

The elder sister was crying and yelling in dismay, instead of looking at her blood-stained younger brother who had been pushed down in the courtyard by herself, she closed the door forcefully in despair.

Xia Youjie's pupils constricted. He watched the dead girl tear apart the curse that attacked Shuhei Bunbu, watched her expel her younger brother from the building, watched the sharp claws appearing on her hands and the rising curse breath on her body...

Bunbu Yue's approach was correct. She was dragged back to the world by her mother's curse, but she was inevitably transforming into a cursed spirit.Not knowing whether she would lose her mind, in order to avoid hurting her relatives, she could only push her brother out.

Xia Youjie thought that the young Bunbu Shuhei would go to the police, but after the boy got up, he lay down on the window of the living room, avoiding possible outside sight.

Bunbu Yue stiffened her body, sadly letting her younger brother discover the fact that she was transforming into a curse spirit.

"Sister, I'll be with you." Bunbu Shuhei forced himself to look away from his mother, holding back tears, and said in a low voice, "Let's wait for Dad to come back together."

As he spoke, he still couldn't help sobbing.

"Go, call the police, go find it, Dad." Across a window, the siblings cried at each other.

"No, if, sister, let them know." Bunbu Shuhei held the window sill stubbornly, his eyes were red, "I will let, father, get rid of it, sister."

Xia Youjie silently watched the two siblings. What separated them was not just a transparent window, but the huge gap between life and death, the magician and the magician.

There are mixed feelings in his heart, not only saddened by the cruelty of fate, but also shocked by the firmness of emotion.

But no matter what, Xia Youjie knew that the childhood of that child named Bunbu Shuhei was over.

The author has something to say:

The first time the author has something to say, so repost it.

Cuckoo Whale's first time to get through the text, thank you for your support and understanding~

Because the article was not posted yesterday, the red envelope in the comment area has been changed to a lottery, I hope everyone can accept it.

Let's talk about the settings again:

Qiwusan is a festival for children to pray for health and longevity.

But on this day, Bunbu Yue, who wore a kimono with a cherry pattern, passed away like a cherry blossom, while Shuhei Bunbe, who was wearing a kimono with a hemp leaf pattern, "has tenacious vitality like hemp", and began to bear the lives of two people.

The next few chapters will be from ten years ago to the mimic incident, Xia Youjie will look at the past of Bunbu Shuhei from the perspective of a helpless bystander.

Xia Youjie's jade story begins with the death of Riko Amouchi and ends when he witnesses the encounter between Nanako and Mimiko.Correspondingly, Bunbu Shuhei's tamaori began when his sister died and was completed when he started wandering the streets of Yokohama.

What Jie is about to witness is the process of rebuilding after Shuping the Ministry of Education.

So...maybe a little bit of knives?It won't be very abusive, Cuckoo Whale doesn't write abusive articles! (Slap on the chest to guarantee)

In short, thank you guys for your support~
