The favorability system is broken, I decided to put on a vest

The calendar keeps turning.

Soon, the second semester is coming to an end.

However, before the short holiday in January, that is, at the end of December, Mori Miyuki made a call to Riko on her mobile phone.

"Riko, are you ready?"

Perhaps it was because Xia Youjie's voice was indeed calmer and more convincing, or perhaps it was because Sen Shenxue was born with a self-confidence that was strong enough to infect others.

After hearing this sentence, Riko Tenuchi, who was really uneasy in her heart, took a deep breath, calmed down quickly, and said firmly: "Yes, I'm ready—I'm ready for everything. Already!"

"But..." She paused and hesitated, "But, I want to ask... why did you help me do this?"

Mori Miyuki smiled: "Then why did Riko choose to trust me?" Her voice was unhurried, "Actually, I didn't even think that Riko would choose to trust me so quickly... I thought it would take at least Riko will be incited by me next semester."

Mori Miyuki did not hide that she came here with a purpose from the beginning.

But such banter can no longer shake Riko's mood.

Riko whispered: "Yeah, I'm also very strange...why do I trust you like this...but I think it's probably because I had a dream."

"Dream?"

"Yeah, I dreamed that I became a bird and flew to the sky under the gaze of a person..." On that day, the sky was beautiful, and the person watching her was very focused, although Lizi couldn't see the other person's face clearly, even She couldn't see the other party's gender clearly, but she thought, it must be a very gentle person.

"That person stood on the ground and waved to me vigorously, as if telling me 'you can do it'..." Riko clenched her fists and said firmly, "So I believe I can do it .”

·

Before the start of the third semester, that is, during the one-week holiday after the new year, Xia Youjie received an urgent call from the magic world at home.

At that time, Xia Youjie was helping his mother with housework at home.

Housework is generally not done by men in Japan, and as a high school student, few people have the self-consciousness of "helping mother".

But Xia Youjie is very conscious, and even doesn't know why, he has a subtle sense of guilt towards his parents.

[Probably because I feel that I have done something that cannot be turned back. ]Xia Youjie "explained" to Sen Shenxue in this way, or "tree hole", [with a cavity of resentment and anger for no reason, he took the initiative to cut off his own retreat, so as to ensure that he would never regret it, never Looking back... I want to keep going forward, even if I know there is only an end ahead. ]

He said, sighed, and began to take the New Year's decorations off the door.

[Maybe it's a dream... In the dream, I looked at myself in the dream as a bystander, and felt that such a life was really not easy, although I didn't think so in the dream at the time, and even felt that the fetters that belonged to me were in the dream. More and more... But if I had to choose, I don't want to live that kind of life. ] Xia Youjie said, [Actually, my current life is pretty good. Although they are still not what I want, I don’t actually hate them either. ]

Sitting on the wall of the yard, Sen Shenxue couldn't help sighing again and again at Xia Youjie's sad look: [Do you know what I thought of? ]

[what? ]

[When man thinks, God laughs. ]

Xia Youjie: […]

It's really strange, why does this tree hole have a mouth?

Xia Youjie: [For the sake of helping you clean up the mess this morning, show some respect to me, shall we? ! ]

Mori Miyuki coughed and skipped the topic: [So have you figured out your own affairs? ]

[not yet. ] Xia Youjie said, [but I have a hunch... this day will come soon. ]

It's like a general with fg on the stage.

Almost half an hour after Xia Youjie finished speaking, the call from the magic world came.

Xia Youjie quickly put on his clothes and came to the assembly point, but when he arrived at the assembly point, he realized that not only his two classmates and partners, but even Teacher Ye Mo himself had come here Here, I don't know who I'm calling right now.

"What's the matter? Why did you call us suddenly? What happened?" Xia Youjie, who was the last to arrive because of his family's distance, asked his two friends like this.

"Who knows." Gojo Satoru was yawning and distracted.Judging by the way this guy looks, he must be playing games all night again, so he can't be counted on.

So Xia Youjie looked at Jia Ruzi.

Jiarui Nitzi was indeed more reliable than Wujo Wu, and he gave Xia Youjie the answer very simply: "It's about the astral body."

Xia Youjie nodded: "Oh. What happened?"

Gojo Satoru blinked: "What is that?"

Jia Ruzi & Xia Youjie: "..."

I don't know why, when this kind of thing happened to Wujo Satoru, everyone took it for granted.

After that, Xia Youjieyan briefly explained to Gojo Wu about the relationship between the astral body and Master Tianyuan's spells, and then brought the topic back to the topic again, asking: "Then, what is the purpose of calling us in the magic world?" Did something happen to the astral body?"

Jia Ruozi said: "Three days ago, the astral body was found to have disappeared suddenly at home. This incident caused a small-scale earthquake in the magic world, but until now, things should still be within the controllable range, and it is also related to us. It doesn't matter... But this morning, the magic circle discovered the victim's location of the astral body, and the attack form that killed her was very different from the magic power."

Xia Youjie said flatly, "So why were we summoned?"

Jia Ruozi: "Find the murderer who killed the astral body. Arrest him as much as possible, study his power form, and if it doesn't work, kill him."

On the side, Gojo Satoru, who was listening, gradually frowned for some reason, with some daze and confusion appearing on his face.

……

Because this is a mission of searching, tracking, and arresting nature, which is very different from the previous pure combat nature of exorcism, so this mission is led by Teacher Yemo himself and demonstrates it in person.

Although this group of problem children is very difficult to manage, Teacher Ye Moth is still optimistic about the matter.

Soon, the assistant supervisor also came, and drove them away from the city, into the yellow cordon, to the forest road in the outskirts, got off the car and walked deep into the forest.After that, it didn't take long before the eyes of the few people suddenly became clear. A huge deep pit appeared in front of them, and a large amount of blood seeped into the soil at the bottom of the pit.

Young people are quick to act and quick to react.Before Teacher Ye Moth could speak, the two male high school students had already given a helping hand, and they jumped into the pit with their family and inspected the venue.

"There are traces of mantra power, but it wasn't left by the murderer... Did someone come here before us?" Wujo Satoru asked as he looked around.

Xia Youjie said: "That's right, all the students who didn't have assignments in Tokyo Manga and Kyoto Manga have come to see this time, we should be the last ones to arrive."

Gojo Satoru was astonished: "How do you know?"

Xia Youjie: "If you have listened carefully to Teacher Ye Moth, you will know."

"……whispering sound!"

Xia Youjie looked down at Jiarui Nitzi, and said, "Grandma, did you find anything?"

Jia Ruozi did not raise his head, staring at the traces at the bottom of the pit: "Judging from the amount of blood remaining at the bottom of the pit, it is impossible for the victim to be alive.

"

"How to say?"

"A 50kg adult has a blood volume of about 4000 milliliters, and when his blood loss exceeds 1000 milliliters, it will be life-threatening. The remaining blood volume here is conservatively estimated to be about 1000 milliliters, and since the astral body is still an unknown Adulthood, and the infiltration of the land, it is very likely that most of the blood in her body is left here...Normal people can never survive in this situation."

"..."

"But I still have a question, is this really the trace left after the astral body was damaged?"

Teacher Noctua came over at this moment and replied: "It has been confirmed, this is the blood of the astral body, and we found a fragment of a hair tie from the bottom of the pit before, and the lady who took care of the astral body identified it as blood. It is determined that this is an item belonging to the astral plasma."

Speaking of this, the three young men at the bottom of the pit all glanced at the young woman outside the huge pit who was watching all this in a daze.

Their hearing is very sensitive, and they heard that this lady should be called Misato Kuroi, who has taken care of the astral body these years.

Xia Youjie lowered his eyes and sighed silently.

Gojo Gojo frowned even tighter. Seeing such a scene, he suddenly shook his head, and couldn't help but patted himself on the head.

"What's wrong?" Xia Youjie looked sideways.

Gojo Satoru replied vaguely: "No, it's nothing..."

Everyone's eyes moved to the bottom of the pit again.

"Since it is confirmed that this is the scene of the victim of the astral body, what about the other party's body?" Jia Ruozi asked.

Teacher Noctua shook his head: "This is one of the problems - we didn't find any remains of corpses and body tissues."

"How come?" Jia Ruozi was surprised.

Teacher Ye Moth said: "This may be one of the enemy's attack methods, and it is something we need to find out." He stomped hard on the deep pit under his feet, and said in a deep voice, "The enemy took away the enemy under our noses." Astral body, and destroyed her with a power and method we don't understand, leaving only such a pit in arrogance-this is undoubtedly declaring war on our entire magic world!"

"Such a murderer with unknown identity and purpose is very likely to spread his malice, and then endanger ordinary human society, so we must take him down before he strikes again, and we must not take it lightly!!"

After Teacher Noctua's passionate speech was over.

The three young men looked at him: "Oh."

Night Moth said rightly: "..."

Don't be angry, there is no one to replace you if you are angry.

Noctua Zhengdao cleared his throat: "Actually, the three of you will be called together for this incident. Besides that you are the strongest combination, there is another reason."

Facing the puzzled gazes of the three young men, Ye Mozheng paused, sighed silently, and said in a deep voice: "The victim this time, that is, the astral body, is actually someone you all know—especially you, Jay."

"The real name of the astral body is Riko Tennai... that is, the netizen you have been in contact with this semester. According to the investigation, the few of you should have met in Shinjuku more than a month ago, so it will be a little later When the time comes, the three of you will have to accept another routine investigation."

At this moment, Gojo Wu and Jiaru Nitzi were taken aback, with surprise on their faces, and then they all looked at Xia Youjie.

But Xia Youjie lowered his eyes, unable to see the expression on his face clearly.
