Because I'm too afraid of pain, it's worth all the looks

"vomit……"

Mingqiu booked a ticket for the next morning, and had to change planes halfway. It was already a day later when I arrived in London, and the local time was still in the morning. After getting off the plane, Mingqiu went straight to the women's toilet and vomited cleanly. .

Felt like dying...how Webb insisted on flying from London to Fuyuki, she was going to throw up...

After finally clearing out the mess in his stomach, Ming Qiu randomly found a restaurant at the airport to eat, anyway, Mori Ogai said that he could be reimbursed, and he would not eat for nothing.

But she obviously overestimated her gastrointestinal condition, and British food is not suitable for her fragile stomach, so she could only find a coffee shop to sit down and rest for a while, ordered a scone, and sat in the coffee shop openly , Now I can finally lie on her satchel and take a good rest for a while.

If it wasn't for the kindness of the elderly store manager who gave her a cup of hot cocoa, Ming Qiu might have to go straight to the hospital.

Ming Qiu spoke in somewhat jerky English, "Thank you."

"A kind gentleman ordered it for you just now." The store manager said with a smile: "It seems that both of you are foreigners. It should be a kind of fate to be able to take care of each other in a foreign country."

Facing the kind expression of the other party, Ming Qiu really couldn't tell what kind of person "Mr. Kind Heart" was, so he could only show a smile and said, "Really?"

Maybe it was because Ming Qiu was familiar with each other, or because she felt that her frail appearance was attractive, so the leisurely store manager sat opposite her and said, "Miss looks young, are you here to study in London?"

student?It certainly looks like this on the outside, but in reality that sort of thing has been done decades ago.

Ming Qiu blinked, straightened the ribbon on the collar of his shirt, and said, "Well... I'm not a student, I just came to find a male friend who is studying in London."

The store manager was a little surprised and asked, "Oh, where does he go to school? Maybe I can help you."

Ming Qiu thought about it seriously. Weber didn't mention the specific address of the clock tower in the letter. The main reason was the secrecy of the magic, and she didn't remember asking Tokiomi the address of the clock tower at all...Maybe there was no one at all. I know, after all, it is the Higher Magic Association...

Ming Qiu suddenly thought of something, and said, "Ah, there is a big bell tower nearby, it should be a very obvious feature."

"The clock tower...it should be Big Ben." The store manager thought for a moment, then asked, "Is it Westminster College? It's the center of London."

Ming Qiu nodded in agreement, "It sounds like it is." She suddenly thought of something and said, "Do you have a phone here? I want to call him first."

"of course."

Ming Qiu dialed the phone number that Weber had given her before. After a while, someone on the opposite side answered the phone and asked Ming Qiu what was the matter. After learning that Ming Qiu was looking for Weber Velvet, the other party was very indifferent. He told her that with Wei Bo's current status, he could not casually receive guests into the clock tower, and hung up the phone without even telling Ming Qiu the address of the clock tower.

Ming Qiu sighed and said with emotion: "Ah, what a cold receptionist."

The store manager kindly reminded: "After all, it is a famous private school, the fee is expensive, and it is normal to be arrogant."

"really……"

The store manager smiled and said, "But I think if you go in person, miss, the receptionist there will definitely open the door for you."

Ming Qiu looked at him with some doubts, and asked, "Why?"

"Because the appearance and temperament of this lady are no less than any nobleman."

Ming Qiu opened her mouth in surprise, and then showed a smile. She drank the remaining hot cocoa in the cup in one gulp, stood up and bowed slightly to the store manager, saying: "Anyway, I'll go first, thank you for your care."

"Goodbye."

The store manager waved goodbye to her, and was about to clear the plate when he suddenly found a few coins under the cup of hot cocoa, obviously exceeding the value of the cup of hot cocoa.

Ming Qiu first went to change the change, and then took public transportation to the Westminster College mentioned by the coffee shop manager, which was near Big Ben, but it didn't seem to be the clock tower that Weber was talking about, so Ming Qiu Qiu can only wander around the Thames River in Big Ben and look around.

Anyway, completing Mori Ogai's mission is not the primary goal, it is better to take advantage of this time to visit London, she still likes this ancient and classical city.

Perhaps it was because today was a working day, there were no students on the streets of London, passers-by were in a hurry, as if Ming Qiu was the only idler.

"The clock tower... the clock tower..."

Suddenly someone stopped in front of her and said, "This lady..."

Ming Qiu blinked, took a brief look at the other party, and said, "Hello?"

"You seem to be being followed..." The other party was wearing suspenders slanted, with a newsboy cap on his blond hair. He said mysteriously, "Did you provoke some kind of enemy? I work near here. I see that you have turned here several times, but the other party has been following you."

Ming Qiu couldn't help showing a smile, and said, "No, it's a perverted stalker."

The other party was taken aback by her ordinary attitude, and asked hesitantly, "Do you need to call the police for you?"

"No need, I can take care of it myself." Ming Qiu showed him a grateful expression, and said, "Thank you for your reminder, kind foreign gentleman. Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

Ming Qiu walked slowly along the street, looked down at her slightly opened satchel, sighed softly, then turned into a deserted alley, opened the pendant on her bracelet, and opened the The mercury fell to the ground.

There are not many pedestrians on the street now, using magic is not conspicuous, and as long as you use magic, the magic dress on your body will definitely start to absorb the local magic power immediately, and then you can find the location of the clock tower as long as you sense where the magic power is the strongest .

"Wake up, extend, grow..."

"Wait a moment."

Ming Qiu turned his head to look at the person holding his hand, frowned, and immediately walked away lightly. The mercury that was only flowing slowly on the ground due to magic power immediately rushed towards Dazai Osamu like half of boiling water. Jump up, it seems that the next second will rush to attack him.

Osamu Dazai couldn't help but sighed in his heart, and then explained: "Qiu, there is an interesting positioning device in your bag."

Ming Qiu followed his gaze to look at his bag, and stretched out his hand to take out the bud of the vine.

This should be the method used by the other party to track her. Ming Qiu also vaguely guessed that since she came here, someone has started to pay attention to her. It is probably the foreign supernatural organization that Mori Ogai said. As for why not find a women's toilet One of the reasons for throwing away this vine is that she wants to test whether the magic world and the supernatural world overlap, whether the two sides know each other, or understand that there are other forces in the world other than herself.

If magic can be used against abilities, the clock tower may be a good temporary stop.

Osamu Dazai looked at the vine shoots, thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "Why don't we just deal with it like this." He took out a sugar bag from nowhere, pinched out the juice from the vine branch, and glued it on. The sugar was thrown on the ground casually, so there were many small animals looking for food in the dark alley, and soon a mouse snatched the grape vine away with its trembling beard, but who knew the mouse would bring the vine to Where are you going?

Ming Qiu silently watched him finish all the procedures.

The bag of sugar looks like it was taken from a coffee shop at the airport...

Osamu Dazai seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, and explained seriously: "I paid the money, I didn't just take advantage of it."

Ming Qiu lowered his eyes and raised his hand to direct the mercury to extend in all directions. The cracks between the originally dark floor tiles were illuminated by the faintly glowing mercury, which looked like some kind of beautiful scenery in the dark alley, and all of this was done by one person. create.

Osamu Dazai watched her gently close her eyes to perceive the magic wave, and couldn't help showing a faint smile.

If I had to say what I learned from her, it would probably be the kind of attitude that treats others gently at all times. Even if I was angry, I would just say "Never say a word to you again" in the end like a child The oath of anger.

It's just that maybe it's too late to understand all the meaning... If Ming Qiu really talks to him one day, it means that all this is over, right?

——Both good and bad bonds have been completely broken.

Ming Qiu opened his eyes, and without any pause, he directly skipped Dazai Osamu and walked towards his destination.

The clock tower is indeed hidden near Big Ben, but it should be said that the entire clock tower is hidden by some kind of magic that can cut off the space. It looks nothing different from the outside, but if this magic can be broken, Then you can officially enter the clock tower. Of course, maybe the clock tower has something like a door card, which can facilitate the free access of the lecturers and students of the clock tower.

Ming Qiu took out his mobile phone and dialed the phone number that Clock Tower could use to contact.

"Hey?"

Ming Qiu said leisurely: "Hi, I'm a friend of Weber Velvet, and I'm waiting for him in front of the clock tower gate. If you can't transfer the call for me, can you ask him to come out?"

The other party seemed a little surprised, and suddenly fell silent, perhaps to confirm whether Ming Qiu was really at the gate of the clock tower as she said just now, and after a while, she finally said: "This is for you to transfer to Lecturer Weber Velvet , he just finished class."

It seems that he was teaching the students before.

Ming Qiu showed a smile and said, "Okay, thank you."

After a while, Weber Velvet came out from somewhere. Seeing his panting appearance, he should have come running.

When Ming Qiu heard his footsteps, she turned her head leisurely, and said, "Long time no see, Mr. Weber." She suddenly noticed something, let out a cry, stretched out her body and picked up Weber's waist-length hair , said: "You actually have long hair, Weber, is this a necessary image for a teacher? All the lecturers in the Clock Tower have long hair fluttering?"

Wei Bo hurriedly took a step back, and said, "This is for other purposes... But you, why did you suddenly appear here? I just sent you a letter not long ago, right? Suddenly someone informed me that someone was waiting for me at the door... ...Wait, how did you find this place! This is a secret!"

"Ah, it looks like Weber hasn't received my letter yet." Ming Qiu said with a smile, "I'm here to visit you in London, and I want to ask you something about magic. As for finding the clock tower, it's very simple." , Such a high-end magic institution must be established in the place with the strongest spiritual power in London, right? You can find it after a little exploration, and it was Mercury who made it to the main entrance."

Weber looked at the mercury equipment all over her body and the leather satchel that didn't know what it contained. He had a complicated expression for a while, and said, "What happened? How could a magic idiot suddenly become keen on bringing so many magic ingredients... ..."

Ming Qiu said very proudly: "I used to be regarded as a low-rate magician, but now I am at least a low-level magician."

Weber couldn't help looking at the corner of his mouth, wishing he could pull her shoulder and roar, "Your magical power is so powerful, so what am I?" Fortunately, he has met enough weirdos in the past six months, so he won't lose his composure.

So he just patiently said: "...Don't use that kind of words to describe yourself! How can you say that your magic power reserve can reach the level of a genius! Damn! Oda, you are humiliating me!"

"No." Ming Qiu waved his hands with a smile, and said, "I have borrowed a lot of books about magic from Yuansaka's house, Weber can't underestimate me now, but thanks to Weber who recommended these books to me Well, you are worthy of being a teacher!"

"Huh? You actually still have contacts with the Tohsaka family?" Weber suddenly thought of something while talking, and fell silent all of a sudden.

Probably thought of the rider who confronted Archer but failed to win—Iskandar the Conqueror, just like Setant and Emperor Shihuang for Ming Qiu, Iskandar should have changed the trajectory of Weber's life A special existence, even if it has been over for a long time, as if it never happened, it can't change this fact.

Ming Qiu stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, saying: "How about this, Wei Bo, I treat you to dinner, let's talk about what happened around us, how about?"

Wei Bo sighed, and said, "At least I should be doing the landlord's favor, right?"

"This... If you really want to be a landlord..." Ming Qiu showed a troubled look, and said pitifully: "Please help me recommend any delicious restaurants in London. Those who arrive at the airport in the morning I ordered a lot, but I couldn’t eat all of them.”

Weber: "..." Are you disliking British food for being unpalatable?
