Curse this wonderful world

86: [The Curse of 86]

The air suddenly tensed.After a long time, Xia Youjie heard himself asking stiffly.

"……What's the meaning?"

However, Enomoto Takanao's reaction was more surprising than him.Don't you know? With such an expression, the middle-aged man opened his eyes wide in astonishment. The next moment, he seemed to understand, and immediately frowned, showing a serious and annoyed expression.

"Sorry, Xia You-kun, I made a slip of the tongue. Please forget what you said just now." Enomoto Takanao used a rare cold tone, and more than that, he reached out and tapped the back of the driver's seat in front.

"Kagawa, stop by the side."

"Master Enomoto?" Kagawa Kana was taken aback, "But..." I just drove to school, and it's still far from Tokyo Station.

"Stop the car." But Takanao Enomoto didn't wait for her to finish.He felt very oppressive when his face was cold.Kagawa Kana shook her shoulders and quickly stopped on the side of the road.Enomoto Takanao opened the door and got off the car, turned around and walked back towards the school.While walking, he took out his mobile phone.

This is obviously to contact someone else to send it.Looking in the rearview mirror, Kagawa was suddenly embarrassed and confused.Although she also heard the conversation between the two - they were in the same car, it was hard not to hear - but she didn't understand why the atmosphere suddenly froze with just these two sentences.However, one is a super conjurer and the other is the patriarch of an aristocratic family. She dare not ask and doesn't know what to ask.At this moment, her car was still parked on the side of the road. Seeing that Xia Youjie in the back seat did not respond for a long time, Kagawa Kana tried to speak with a numb scalp.

"That, Mr. Xia You..."

"Ah..." In the rearview mirror, the young super conjurer with an ugly face raised his head.Forcibly suppressing the various thoughts that were boiling in his mind for a while, Xia Youjie looked at the auxiliary supervisor in the rearview mirror, and bent his mouth stiffly: "It's okay. It's just a little misunderstanding. Let's go to the station first. The task is urgent, There's nothing wrong with Enomoto-san."

"Ah, yes!"

Xia Youjie smiled a little forcedly, and coupled with the atmosphere just now... In short, it should be assumed that he didn't know.Kagawa Kana quickly looked away, and honestly followed Xia Youjie's instructions to start the car again.

Because her attention was focused on the road in front of her, she didn't see Xia Youjie, who had lowered his head again, lowered his eyes.He looked at the content displayed on the screen of the mobile phone, his brows were deeply frowned, and his hand holding the mobile phone tightened.

——"[Look at] the sins and pains of the world"... Shen Yu, what are you hiding from me?

/ Enomoto: Sorry, Xia Yu-kun.I know what you want to ask.But since you don't know, that's not what I can say.There is an agreement between the Director Council and the main office of the shrine. To those who don't know, a lot of information about Mr. Hinasaki is confidential.Part of it also deals with bondage, which should never be mentioned.I thought—no, please forget what I said.I won't say it. /

It wasn't until the car merged into the traffic flow and disappeared from sight that the middle-aged man in a formal kimono put down his phone with a smile, and stretched out his hand to tear off the wide dark ribbon on his forehead.

It ran across the forehead like sutures, extending from one temple to the other, until the weird scars covered by the sideburns were immediately exposed to the sun.And with the exposure of the scars, Enomoto Takanao seemed to be a different person, squinted his eyes, and smiled happily with a mocking expression that didn't match his serious face.

He suddenly said, "Li Mei, tell me, what will Xia Youjie think when he hears the news?"

"I don't know, and I'm not interested." As soon as Enomoto finished speaking, a white-haired petite figure in cassock rose from his shadow, "By contrast, Iso, are you okay? This is very close to Gaozhuan Right? Why did you call me out like that? Are you not afraid of being exposed?"

"Hehe, don't be so serious, Rime. You are Takanao Enomoto's 'shikigami' now." The corner of Enomoto's mouth curled up, "You can contract a powerful curse spirit to hide in the shadow—this body has only one merit gone."

"However, you can only contract one spell spirit. The target of the contract cannot be stronger than yourself, unless you are voluntary. It's too weak, and it's not even qualified as a lower-level exchange for [Ten Shadow Spells] and [Curse Spirit Manipulation]." Limei's white hair and red eyes, and the expressionless interface of the child-like mana spirit who can't tell the gender, the tone is flat, but the words are very spicy.

But Enomoto—or Esoso didn't care.On the contrary, he nodded in agreement, "So this body can only be used as a transition. No, it should be said to be an intermediate node close to the target."

"You want [Spiritual Manipulation]?" Limei blinked, "Give up, you can't win. According to our agreement, I won't make a move until Master Su Nuo wakes up."

"Hahahahaha!" However, as soon as he finished speaking, Li Suo burst out laughing.He laughed exaggeratedly, as if he had heard some funny joke, "I don't need to win. I don't need it at all." He waved his hands exaggeratedly, "I never thought of doing it myself."

There is no need for him to do it.

With a middle-aged face that was not suitable for a smile, the corners of his mouth were raised high.He stopped laughing, looked at the direction the car was driving away, his eyes were full of cold joy.

"Hey~ Limei. Human beings have not improved at all in the past thousand years. Whether they are magicians or non-spellcasters, there is no difference in my opinion. Love, lust, and curses all come from people's hearts. Compared with force, the human heart is much simpler." He said, turning around, looking at Limei, "Those who have a heart have weaknesses, those who have weaknesses will suffer, and those who are beautiful, gentle and kind will always die first, It's been like this since ancient times."

"Your 'die first'..." Limei looked up at him, "How long is it?"

"Today? Tomorrow? Ten years? Twenty years?" Li Suo raised his eyebrows evilly, "What difference does it make if it's short or long? We've all been waiting for a thousand years, do we still care about this time like a mayfly?"

indeed so.Limei thought, and her lowered eyes once again sank into the shadow of Masao—or Enomoto Takanao.And the latter doesn't mind the curse spirit's self-assertion.On the contrary, thinking of Xia Youjie who began to "lean" as he expected, Enomoto smiled even more happily.

That miko-sama is truly outstanding.It's not just the influence on [Spell Manipulation] and [Six Eyes].She's also quite interesting in her own right.He hasn't experimented with Yequanzi yet.Is it possible to copy [Six Eyes] by using her as the mother body? [Spell Manipulation] Will it evolve?If her womb is used, will it conceive something stronger than the organ and the nine-phase diagram of the cursed fetus?

Unfortunately, for the time being, these ideas can only stay on paper.The middle-aged man squinted his eyes, feeling a little regretful.Although he didn't know how the priestess escaped from Rishang Mountain, but he didn't dare to act rashly if he wasn't sure.

After all, he wants to create, not destroy.Without the human pillar, once the underworld floods and all the people in this land die, he will be very troubled.

"...Do you want to call Ms. Hinasaki?"

When parking the car in the parking lot of Tokyo Station, Kagawa Kana finally couldn't help but speak.She didn't understand what Enomoto Xiaozhi and Xia Youjie were playing riddles, but at least the atmosphere was obviously not a good thing.As a rare auxiliary supervisor who is familiar with the group of four, Kagawa Kana likes these four young conjurers very much.Especially Hinasaki Fukahae and Ieirui Glass, although she can't say it, she regards the two girls as friends in her heart-they also have a three-person gossip group.She appeared in the topic of the two of them. If there is any misunderstanding, it's better to talk about it as soon as possible?

She thought so, but heard a low laugh with complicated meaning from the back seat.

"Oh." Did he not want to ask?Xia Youjie opened the car door first.He can't wait to go back to the high school and ask Shen Yu to ask for clarification.The seven months since she disappeared, the sudden change in her physical condition, the extra constraints, her secret identity, and the words of Takanao Enomoto all gave him a very bad premonition.

However, the current situation is that Takanao Enomoto's silence and restraint on Fukaha made him unable to do anything now!

Xia Youjie tried his best to suppress his inner emotions, but as if he was hooked by this anxiety, the depression and boredom of several months flooded his heart again.High-intensity tasks, disgusting human nature, for a moment, the chest of the black-haired young man seemed to be empty before a storm, and all kinds of thoughts were mixed and turbulent.

However, this is not an emotion that should be vented to others.He looked at the auxiliary supervisor who got out of the car.Xia Youjie ignored Xiangchuan's worried expression, and curved the corners of his mouth symbolically.

"It's okay, let's finish the task first."

"Oh! Okay." Kagawa Kana nodded hesitantly, then turned around and trotted towards the ticket office.

Looking at her back, Xia Youjie narrowed his eyes.It doesn't make sense for him to think about it alone.The best way now is to solve the task as soon as possible and return to the high school.Although he can't ask directly, he can talk to Wu Tiao--the Wutiao family should be able to find the answer, right?

It's just a special-level earth-bound spirit that needs to be exorcised every few years. They have sufficient information in their hands, and he can solve it quickly.

However, no one thought that such a mission would go wrong.

It was early in the morning when Shen Yu sent Xia Youjie away. According to Xia Youjie's plan, he could rush back to the college around dinner at the earliest.As a result, he rushed back before dusk.Not only was it much earlier than the original plan, but it also used the method of riding the rainbow dragon straight into the barrier of the high school.

Rainbow Dragon is a registered spell spirit, but the impact of powerful spell power still touched Gaozhuan's barrier.Shen Yu was chatting with Nitro at the time—she had a rare afternoon free, but Gojo Satoru was called away by an urgent task.When they heard the alarm, the two raised their heads in astonishment at the same time, then exchanged glances very quickly, and ran towards Honglong's landing point.Then he bumped into Xia Youjie who jumped off the curse spirit with Kagawa Kana in his arms.

The young conjurer's face was frighteningly dark, his breath was cold, and there were still bloodstains on his cheeks.But no one cares about him at the moment.The eyes of the family's glass suddenly froze when they saw Kagawa Kana.

"Put her down! It's too late to go to the infirmary! She's going to die!" As she spoke, she tore off Kagawa's skirt, and stretched her hand towards the bloody wound on her chest, and the reversal technique immediately started.

Shen Yu took off his shirt without saying a word and spread it on the floor. After Xia Youjie put him down, he quickly took out his mobile phone.

Fortunately, the ability of the glass is strong enough. When the other staff in the infirmary contacted by Fukaba arrived, Kagawa Kana had already recovered her breathing and heartbeat.Shen Yu finally had time to inquire about the situation after the family entered the nitrate and ran to the infirmary with the stretcher.

"What's going on?" She quickly followed into the medical building and asked Xia Youjie beside her.

If Xia Youjie hadn't come back in time just now, Xiangchuan would never have survived.Xia Youjie had already given her first aid.All available measures were used.But the wounds on her body were too horrific. Not only were there three long and deep wounds on the front and chest extending from under the collarbone to the abdomen, almost tearing her whole body apart, there was also a curse mark like a burn on half of her body— — This is definitely a head-on collision with the curse spirit.

But Xiang Chuan was the assistant supervisor, and Xia Youjie was on the mission with her.How could it be like this?

"The mission does not match the information?" Shen Yu asked in a low voice, she could only think of this.

However, Xia Youjie shook his head. "No." His expression was gloomy, watching Nitro and the stretcher rush into the operating room at the end of the corridor, he suddenly stopped, closed his eyes, and said in a low voice: "It's my fault."

"Ah?!" Shen Yu was stunned.She stopped and looked up at Xia Youjie in surprise, and then heard something that made people want to curse.

Xia Youjie's task today is to bind the earth spirit in an abandoned shrine.Because there is a strange legend in the local area that a woman who comes here at midnight to curse a heartbreaker can make the other party receive heaven's punishment, and the accumulated curses every few years will form a curse spirit.It is a routine task.It's just that people have been missing in the vicinity this year, and the window has also observed that the curse has surpassed the intensity of previous years. He suspects that it may be a special grade, and the task is in Xia Youjie's hands.

After he and Kagawa arrived at the scene, they confirmed that the curse spirit was indeed close to the super level, and a relatively rough domain was born, and quickly found the missing person who was trapped in the domain.Up to this point, everything works fine.Xia Youjie and Xiangchuan were even quite lucky.This curse spirit seemed not interested in the trapped living people, and the missing people suffered no other harm except weakness and fright.

The curse spirit itself is not very good at fighting.Xia Youjie came up and pressed it to output violently, forcing the injured mantra to quickly withdraw from the domain.He intends to subdue this curse spirit.Xiang Chuan and Xia Youjie have rich experience in cooperation and have seen his plan.When Xia Youjie's curse spirit entangled the exorcism target, she immediately entered the tent and began to assist the victims to evacuate.

This was originally the job of assisting supervision, and Xiangchuan knew that Xia Youjie and his magic spirit were in control of the field, so it would not be dangerous to leave with the victim at this time.But she knows, most people don't know.Not only did they not know, they had no way of distinguishing the difference between Xia Youjie's curse spirit and the object of exorcism.So one of the victims, in extreme panic, pushed Kagawa Kana hard, pushing her unsuspecting right into the middle of the fighting spirits.

That was a situation that was completely beyond the expectations of Xia Youjie and Xiangchuan himself.Although Xia Youjie immediately gave the order to rescue and rushed forward himself, Xiangchuan was still involved in the attack.Even, if Xia Youjie hadn't moved fast enough, her head would have fallen off on the spot.No matter how it is not looked down upon by super-level magicians, it is also close to super-level magic spirits. It is no more difficult for it to crush Kagawa Kana, who can't get rid of even the third level, than to crush an ant.

Right in front of Xia Youjie's eyes, with the woman's screams, blood rose into the sky.By the time he caught her before Kagawa collapsed, she was unconscious.

"...Fuck!" Shen Yu gritted her teeth and cursed in a low voice after hearing this, and thumped the wall on one side heavily with one hand.

Xia Youjie was not in the mood to care about her words at this time.Stretching out his hand to press the center of his brows, he leaned against the wall in the corridor behind him, and continued in a hoarse voice: "...she can't be rescued by ordinary hospitals in this situation. So after I collected the curse spirit, I took her to drive away." I'm back. As for those ordinary people who are still at the scene...sorry, at that time, I really didn't have the time to take care of them..."

Fukaba didn't feel that he should control it at all.Rather, if Xia Youjie hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have remembered it. "Don't worry about it. The curse spirit has been exorcised, what can they do?" She opened her hands and gave Xia Youjie a big hug regardless of the blood on his body.

"It's not your fault. Rather, Jie, it's great that you're here." She closed her eyes and leaned on him tightly, "If it wasn't for you, Miss Kagawa would never have come back."

"...Although it doesn't make sense to me, but." She stood on tiptoe, reached out and wiped the blood on Xia Youjie's face, "Jie, you are amazing! Thank you for saving her!"

Ms. Xiangchuan is only a few years older than them. This big sister who has not been in a relationship because of her busy work, shouldn't have died at this time.

The girl's hands were a little cold, and her body temperature had been low since she came back.Originally, he thought he had a lot to ask.However, at this moment, looking at those obsidian-colored eyes, Xia Youjie only felt deep exhaustion.He let out a long breath.At this moment, his and Shen Yu's cell phones rang at the same time.

The two quickly lowered their heads, and saw that it was the group hair from Nitzi.

/Glass: The bleeding has stopped, not life-threatening.Go back first, and contact you when the situation is stable. /

"Let's go, go to your dormitory. You wash up first, and then we'll come over." Shen Yu put the phone back in his pocket, and took Xia Youjie's hand first, "By the way, bring some food for Nitzi. Be busy for a while."

Although none of them mentioned the ordinary person who pushed Xiangchuan, Shen Yu dared not leave Xia Youjie alone now.

The fact is as Fukaha expected.After returning to the dormitory to wash off the blood and changed into casual clothes, Xia Youjie hugged Shen Yu tightly in his arms as soon as Xia Youjie walked out of the bathroom.He lowered his eyes and kissed her lips one after another.The kiss was very gentle, but the strength to hug her was extremely strong, as if trying to embed the girl into his own body.

"Hair..." Shen Yu said between the kisses, Xia Youjie's hair was not dried yet, and the ends of it were still dripping with water.

"Let it go." Xia Youjie just stretched out his hand to brush his wet hair back, letting the water drop down the hair and wet the back of his T-shirt.He reached out and pulled the girl to the edge of the bed, sat down on the edge of the bed, and he hugged her again.Pecking her lips, his voice was as low as a sigh.

"I just want to hug you right now."

There are too many things in my heart.At this moment, Xia Youjie didn't know what he was thinking.In other words, he just wanted to not think about anything for the time being.Just for now.

His voice sounded tired.Even if he couldn't see it, Shen Yu could roughly guess the heaviness in his heart that he couldn't vent.Her heart tightened, she stretched her hand against Xia Youjie's chest with a little force, turned her head to avoid his movement, and reminded: "Curse spirit."

"..."

"Let it be on your body." Shen Yu's hand went up and pressed against Xia Youjie's cheek.She blinked exaggeratedly on purpose, "We'll take it now and avenge Miss Kagawa!"

She didn't mention the whole story of the incident, and her comforting words were a bit clumsy.However, that warmth and sincerity still made Xia Youjie curl his lips.His eyes softened, and he reached out and took out the magic ball from his pocket.However, for some reason, when he was about to swallow it, he hesitated for a rare moment—as if his heartstrings were twitched by something.But looking down at Shen Yu's gaze, he still closed his eyes and put the magic ball into his mouth.

Then the slightly cool familiar arms wrapped around his neck, and the girl's soft lips pressed against his lips.In the darkness, the sweetness of creamy strawberries permeates him along with his breath.Xia Youjie let himself deliberately ignore the lingering smell of blood in the sweet smell - when Shen Yu hugged him before, the blood on his uniform was stained.Now, it is estimated that it will be returned to him.

But even that is fine.Xia Youjie thought, he didn't regard Shen Yu as a spiritual or spiritual support, he was not that fragile.But every time like this, every time the heavy, dark and stagnant part of his heart melts between their intersecting lips and teeth, he feels that everything he has done still has meaning.

He still chose this path after clearly recognizing the darkness of human nature.Even though the world seems to be mocking and torturing his choices all the time, at least on this road, he has friends, companions, and...

Like the cloudless heart in his heart being brushed away forcefully by his slender and white hands, Xia Youjie stepped back a little distance and held the girl in his arms.

"Deep Feather..."

He was thinking about Enomoto Takanao's phone call that he hadn't gotten through all this time, he lowered his head and kissed the top of the girl's hair, his eyes darkened.

——No matter what you are hiding from me, I just hope you are well.

Then, he was pushed away by Shen Yu vigorously.

"Okay." Her face was red, and her eyes were filled with warm water.Seeing his puzzled gaze, she bit her lip, "I'll go back first."

Xia Youjie raised his eyebrows, "Why? Why don't you stay with me for a while?" Wu didn't show up for so long, and Shen Yu didn't mention it.He knew that guy was on a mission again.Then Fukaha should have nothing else to do.

"Clothes." Shen Yu poked the red mark on his white T-shirt, and smiled helplessly. "I just wanted to say, isn't it just for nothing?" She said, patted his hand reassuringly, "I'll go back and change my clothes first. Come here after changing, you just happen to dry your hair first Ah. Don't catch a cold."

It was rare that it was his turn to be educated, Xia Youjie curled his mouth and said, "Okay ~ Shen Yu's mother." After finishing speaking, Shen Yu gave him a deep and helpless look like a spoiled child.

That expression was very cute, until Shen Yu walked out the door, Xia Youjie's mouth was still slightly curved.Then, he saw the phone on the table light up.

Xia Youjie raised his eyebrows, it wasn't his phone.He stood up and saw that it was an incoming call.Unknown number.Shen Yu's phone is locked by fingerprints, so he can't pick it up.I wonder if the girl will be in a hurry.Xia Youjie didn't think much, and went out with his mobile phone.

Shen Yu has just left, and the route from here to the girls' dormitory is familiar.Her short legs were no match for his pace.Although Xia Youjie doesn't have [Six Eyes], she is still a super-level conjurer after all. If you sense her conjuration power, there is no problem in catching up with her.

Thinking of this, Xia Youjie quickly walked downstairs and walked out of the dormitory.He was just about to see where Shen Yu had gone, and when he looked around, he suddenly saw a familiar black and white out of the corner of his eye—but unlike what he expected, Shen Yu was not on the way back to the dormitory.

But...

Xia Youjie's heart sank suddenly.He withdrew his breath and spell power, walked lightly, and walked towards the back of the dormitory building.Because there is neither a back door nor a window, and it is covered by thick green plants and flower beds, it is a dead corner where almost no one passes by. At this moment, the sun has set, so it looks even darker and inconspicuous.But at this moment, the hem of the black skirt and the corner of the white shirt exposed by the corner of the concrete wall are extremely vivid on Xia Youjie's retina.

It is so clear that it makes people feel stinging.

——What needs her to hide here?

Xia Youjie closed his eyes.He already knows.

A few meters away from the girl, the super conjurer's clear and keen five senses have already captured all the subtle sounds of the target.Heavy and unsteady breathing, the sound of fingernails scratching the wall, the suppressed and out-of-tune whimpers like a wounded little animal, and the soliloquy that shattered into ravings.

"...Good...It hurts...Woo!" With the sound of clothes rubbing against each other, Xia Youjie could almost picture Shen Yu's movements in his mind.She probably leaned against the cold concrete wall, shivering while curling herself up.Because the pain was so severe, he would reach out and subconsciously clenched the front of his chest.

But even so, she was still cheering herself up.

"...No, it's okay... Woo! Fukaha... You can do it! It's everyone's pain... It's not yours... Don't be afraid..."

"Ha... ha... today, today I also dropped Xia Xia's magic ball [look]... that's great..."

"Woo!" There was a heavy impact, but after that, the hem of her clothes moved slightly, but she tried to stand up, "I can... woo... I, it's okay... Hurry up, Xia Xia, I'm still waiting..."

Along with muttering to herself, the girl dragged her heavy and unsteady steps, leaning on the wall and walking towards the other side.The sheer amount of missing mana and the effect of pain kept her completely unaware that he was just around the corner.

——My [Looking] can instantly kill curse spirits, absorb spell power, and form tattoos.

At the beginning of the first semester, the girl introduced it like this.

—Tattoos hurt.It just... hurts...

When they found the painkillers, she said awkwardly like a child who had done something wrong.

——The medium of [seeing] is direct gaze or physical contact.

Countless stresses, and countless kisses.

——I didn’t do anything special.It's just clearing a debuff as usual and helping you replenish a mana!I also have no idea why this is happening.

In the sunny forest, she was lying on the ground, refusing to meet his eyes no matter what.

"[Looking at] Miko-sama who sees the sins and pain of the world..."

Enomoto Takanao's exclamation was still in his ears, and then the girl's cute and cute smiling face appeared overlapping.

"I will use more effective magic that can make Jay feel better!"

Xia Youjie stood where he was, feeling cold all over his body.He remembered a time long ago—no, maybe not that long—when Shen Yu was lying on his desk, flicking the magic ball with his fingers, and said to him seemingly unintentionally: "Xia You, I think That smell of yours must not be the real one. It must be because the curse spirit is a curse."

Then, without waiting for him to speak, she was elated, and even smiled triumphantly.

"But it's okay. I'm here. Let him get rid of all the smells!"

Yes, she is here.

There is no way to immediately enter the state of the kiss, the habit of burying in his arms and refusing to look up after the kiss, the steam rising from the obsidian eyes, the trembling and nasal voice in his arms.

Why did he really think that she didn't have to pay any price for what she did for him?

How did he feel at ease and enjoy the ease and comfort brought by her?

"Ha..." A dry sneer overflowed from his trembling throat.Xia Youjie raised his head and covered his eyes with his hands.How many times has he asked Fukaba to [Look at] so far?Dozens?Or a few hundred?How could he take the pain of the girl he loves as the interest between them?

"What the hell am I doing..."
