I can't see the magic spirit, I'm fighting against the air every day

NO.14 Survival 01

With the joint efforts of the captain and many passengers, Tianhe Zhaosheng and others went ashore safely, and then they, a group of people who had just left the island not long ago, were all left behind by the police for investigation and questioning.

Tianhe Chaosheng, who really didn't know anything, was very cooperative, and told him what he knew one by one.

The group of them were not made things difficult by the police, and they were quickly released after staying for a period of time, allowing them to go wherever they should.

It was said to be very fast, but it actually took a lot of time. After all, the half-sinking of the island is not a small matter. There are a lot of search and rescue personnel rushing there, and various news media rushed over one by one, and all people are busy. People are turned on their backs.

Tianhe Chaosheng and others who "successfully escaped from the sunken island" naturally became popular interview targets for this group of media.

Tianhe Chaosheng didn't want to be famous in this way at all, so he took a walk whenever he had the opportunity.

Of course, this group of media who engaged in live reports to catch the heat were not vegetarians, they carried cameras and ran after Tianhe Zhaosheng.

That speed and endurance can make many sports students feel ashamed, but they are still far behind by Tianhe Chaosheng.

Tianhe Chaosheng, who left the island, is going to inspect the next school according to the original plan.

However, before he left this place, he still heard a lot of reports and people's private speculations about whether Kojima was sinking or not.

The media reports on TV were relatively official, and the police were unable to give a clear answer in a short period of time. However, many experts came forward and analyzed it from various aspects such as tradition and geology, and they spoke clearly and logically.

The matter of sacrificing hungry ghosts on that small island is not a top secret, but the people nearby are generally reluctant to say too much due to taboo, and coupled with the "gold" news that came out not long ago, everyone's private guesses are all kinds of things.

"This must be the work of the hungry ghosts on the island. Has someone disrespected the hungry ghosts again?"

"I don't think it has anything to do with hungry ghosts. People who disrespect hungry ghosts will always appear, but I haven't seen people who can make hungry ghosts so angry that they sink half of the island. Besides, whether hungry ghosts have this ability is another matter." explain."

"It's true, it's true, no matter how much trouble there was in the past, it was always said that someone was missing or something, and you didn't see half of the island sinking?"

"It didn't sink sooner or later, but it sank after the news of the discovery of gold appeared, so ah... it must have something to do with gold."

"This...such words sound more reasonable. Could it be that someone used a bomb..."

"Maybe it's some black and evil organization greedy for gold... This is indeed more reasonable than the words of gods and ghosts."

Tianhe Chaosheng: "..."

Tianhe Chaosheng had heard a lot of analysis from this group of people, and he actually felt that it was very reasonable.

Indeed, although this world is full of curses, in terms of such a large-scale destruction, human weapons are more powerful... right?

Tianhe Zhaosheng was not very sure.

Regardless of the facts, Tianhe Chaosheng, who had narrowly escaped death again, set off again.

The next school to be visited is not far from this small island, and it is also a relatively remote place, but not too deserted.

The town's population is not large, but it has all the necessary infrastructure, and the pace of life is relatively slow. The school's teaching buildings are not as tall as those in the city, and the teachers are not very strong, so there is nothing to be picky about.

Tianhe Zhaosheng spent a whole day wandering around the town, and he felt very good. The only problem was that as a foreigner, he would always receive special attention from the locals.

No matter where he appears, there will always be people staring at him, as if he is some novelty, or... are they treating him like a thief?

I always feel that the people here don't welcome outsiders very much.

However, the owner of the hotel where Tianhe Chaosheng stayed was very enthusiastic and always liked to chat with Tianhe Chaosheng.

After a round of chatting, the hotel owner had the basic information about Tianhe Chaosheng and the purpose of coming here, Tianhe Chaosheng also had enough understanding of this place, and finally decided on one thing.

This "unremarkable" town does not welcome outsiders.

It was a pity that this seemingly "reliable" school in this small town was crossed off the school inspection list, and Tianhe Zhaosheng got on the boat to leave the town.

Tianhe Chaosheng walked on the waterway when he came, and it was the same when he left.

This is a small passenger ship, sailing from other places, passing by here.There were other passengers on board, and everyone seemed to be taking a leisurely pace.

Some people like to go out and make friends, while others stay behind closed doors.

Tianhe Chaosheng, who lived inland in his previous life, did not have many opportunities to see the sea.So when he first took the boat, Tianhe Zhaosheng liked to watch the sea.But after looking at this sea for a long time, I feel somewhat boring.

So after getting on the boat, I nestled in my single cabin, ready to take a good rest.

result……

Tianhe Chaosheng, who habitually likes to organize his things in an orderly manner, found a huddled child in the small locker of his cabin.

When Tianhe Chaosheng first saw this child, his whole body froze.

This scene is comparable to a ghost story, Tianhe Zhaosheng wondered for a moment if he had seen a ghost.

The child looks very thin and looks malnourished.

However, the child he turned out had a very expressive expression. He stared at him and twisted his eyebrows frantically. It didn't look like a ghost at all, but it made Tianhe Chaosheng relax quickly.

Just when Tianhe Zhaosheng wanted to ask what happened to the child, he heard the footsteps of passers-by outside the cabin and the unceremonious knock on the door.

The child who was constantly winking at Tianhe Chaosheng turned pale, and grabbed Tianhe Chaosheng's wrist.

"Help."

Tianhe Chaosheng: "..."

Under the helpless eyes of the child, Tianhe Chaosheng closed the door of the cabinet again, ran to open the door, and then he saw the innkeeper of the town he just left, and several other towns that looked familiar resident.

"It's you!"

The hotel owner looked very familiar, and wanted to squeeze into Tianhe Chaosheng's room. Seeing this, Tianhe Chaosheng stretched his feet forward, and he blocked the entire door.

Although his actions were not polite, Tianhe Chaosheng still had a smile on his face, "Are you all going to travel far away? It's really destined to be on a boat."

The innkeeper looked down at Tianhe Chaosheng's feet, smiled, and searched around Tianhe Chaosheng's small room. He saw nothing special, and he still had a kind face on his face, and explained: "We are not going out. , but a very dangerous kid ran out of town."

"Dangerous?" Tian He Chao was puzzled, "What danger can a child be in?"

The innkeeper shook his head, "You young people in the city really don't know anything, but you haven't stayed in our small town for a long time, so it's reasonable that you don't know. I haven't told you before, In our small town... since a child came, a lot of strange things have happened..."

Then Tianhe Zhaosheng listened to the story of a child who was like a "devil" who killed many people in the town.

The kid who followed his father back to the town always claimed that monsters ate the heads of those people, so they died.

But the residents in the town are more willing to believe that this child killed everyone.

As for how the residents of the town treated the child, the hotel owner didn't say anything, but the hatred in the owner's eyes was not concealed.

Tianhe Chaosheng: "..."

Looking at the innkeeper in front of him, Tianhe Zhaosheng thought of many things.

There are many things in common. For example, ignorant ordinary people will regard those with power as monsters, and imprison, kill, and sacrifice "monsters".

The most typical example is probably the witch hunting that started in the Middle Ages in the West.

For those in power, this is a strategy to divert social conflicts, but those ignorant people really regard those "witches" as "evil monsters" to implement what they think of as "justice".

Although Tianhe Zhaosheng didn't see such contradictions and conflicts between ordinary people and magicians in the anime he watched, it doesn't mean that such contradictions don't exist.

"If you find any trace of that child, please do tell us, you know, he will bring misfortune."

Under the gaze of the innkeeper, Tianhe Zhaosheng showed his excellent acting skills, and changed his expression in accordance with the innkeeper's words.From disapproval at the beginning to suspicion and restlessness later, he finally said cautiously: "If I see the child who ran away, I will tell you."

The hotel owner stared at Tianhe Chaosheng for a long time, nodded slowly, and finally left.

After the innkeeper left, the child who was hiding wanted to come out of the cabinet, but Tian He Chaosheng tapped his forehead, and put his finger on his lips to silence him.

The wide-eyed child was a little puzzled, but he shrank back obediently.

Tianhe Zhaosheng came to the door and walked around until he watched the people in the small town search all the boats, and finally left in the boat they rowed. Then he returned to his room and released the child. come out.

Knowing that he was finally safe, the child let out a big breath as soon as he came out, squinted his eyes and looked up at Tianhe Chaosheng, and waved his hands in a very sophisticated manner: "Thank you, little brother."

With this appearance, where is the previous helplessness?

Somehow, I felt that I was a bit misjudged, and I was going to comfort the child's Tianhe Zhaosheng: "...You're welcome."

The child walked around in the room where he didn't play, poured himself a glass of water to drink, drank it very vigorously, and then "ah~", put the glass away and looked at Tianhe Chaosheng's eyes A little angry, "Little brother, you can't do this."

Tianhe Zhaosheng: "...?"

Child: "Brother, are you too easy to trust others? What if I am a bad person? Are you too easy to be manipulated?"

More question marks slowly appeared above Tianhe Chaosheng's head: "...???"

what's the situation?

Is he being educated by a child who seems to be a future conjurer? ? ?
