mudslides in the magic world

Lantang took Nakahara Chuya to Izu by car.

At Ito Station, Lantang didn't even get out of the carriage, he signaled Nakahara Nakaya to get off: "Someone greets you after you get out of the station, and then you just listen to that person's words."

Zhong Yuanzhong also looked blank, he said in disbelief: "You don't care about me anymore?"

Lantang looked at the shock and suspicion on Zhongya Zhongya's face, and sighed in his heart, 99 Yuki was right, Chuya Zhongya was indeed on deep guard against him, and the boy probably thought he would follow him all the time.

Thinking about it this way, a little distance would indeed make the boy more relaxed.

So Lan Tang said wearily: "Don't waste time, the train will only stop for 3 minutes, you should get off now."

Zhong Yuanzhong also tried to get out of the car, but because he hesitated in the car, the car started just ten seconds after he got out of the car.

Through the car window, Zhong Yuanzhong also saw Lan Tang yawning, leaning against the railing next to the car seat to doze off, and the car rumbled away from the station.

It wasn't until the train could no longer be seen in the Central Plains that he was sure that Lan Tang had really thrown him at the station.

For a moment, Zhongyuan Zhong couldn't help thinking, isn't Gaoyuan Consulting Company worried that he will go to Mori Ogai?

Zhong Yuanzhong was also a little eager to try, but the next second he thought of restraint, because of restraint, he couldn't say anything.

Moreover, he ran back to the Mori Club, and the Gaoyuan Consulting Company had a reason not to pay follow-up funds and weapon support. On the contrary, they would use their own breach of contract as a reason to trouble Mori Ogai...

Zhong Yuanzhong was not stupid, and he thought of Lantang's ability to sweep the offices of European powers. In the end, the orange-haired boy walked out of the station obediently.

The sky gradually dimmed, the sun was setting, and the clouds were thick.

On a bench outside the station, a young man with dark red hair was looking down at a book, with a canned orange soda and a bottle in his hand.

When Zhongyuan Zhongye came out, the young man looked up and showed a gentle smile.

"Mr. Central Plains, here."

Oda Sakunosuke put away the English dictionary, he threw the can of orange juice he had finished drinking into the trash can next to him, and handed another bottle to Nakahara Chuya: "Welcome, I am Oda Sakunosuke, I have been sitting for a few hours Are you thirsty? I don’t know what flavor you like, so I bought the best seller here.”

Chuya Nakahara looked at Sakunosuke Oda. He took the orange soda and didn't drink it right away, but asked, "Chuya Nakahara, so when will the mission start?"

Oda Sakunosuke smiled: "I heard from Ozaki that your mission is long-term and requires you to go all out, so don't worry. It's evening, let's go to dinner first."

Nakahara Chuya frowned: "Long-term mission? What long-term mission?"

Oda Sakunosuke looked at Nakahara Chuya in surprise: "Don't you know? I heard that you also signed the bondage, which is clearly written in the bondage."

Zhong Yuan also curled his lips: "I don't have the right to refuse at all, do I? I didn't watch it."

Rather than saying that I don’t understand it, it’s better to say that I didn’t read it.

Oda Sakunosuke's expression became subtle: "...Then you don't know, you have to be admitted to a university at the same level as Todai University or Waseda?"

Zhong Yuanzhong was also a little puzzled: "What is that?"

Oda Sakunosuke suddenly understood: "Have you ever been to school?"

Nakahara Chuya's tone was light: "I'm a kid from Radium Bowl Street, how can I go to school?"

Oda Sakunosuke: "I understand, then Nakahara-kun, listen carefully, now it is the end of February, you have one month to study elementary school courses, and then go to junior high school in April, this is your job for the next month .”

Nakahara Chuya: "... Huh?"

Oda Sakunosuke: "And I'm your tutor."

Nakahara Chuya: "... Huh?"

On the other side, Lan Tang squinted in the car for a while, and after about half an hour, Lan Tang got out of the car.

When the sea breeze blew, Lan Tang brushed his hair and subconsciously looked into the distance.

The sun that was about to set on the sea in the distance emitted a magnificent light, and the sea was completely dyed golden, bright and dazzling, but the sky had already dimmed, as if darkness was about to swallow the light.

Lan Tang heaved a sigh of relief, he looked away, and chose to walk to Yingji's residence.

Or maybe he needs to clear his mind.

Recently, things happened one after another, quickly and urgently, until he took Nakahara Nakaya out of Yokohama and protected him, his hanging heart slowly fell back into his stomach, and Lan Tang was in the mood to think about what happened in the past few days thing.

Beyonder...

Suddenly remembered that he was a transcendent, and found some past memories, and the strength that came back with the past memories, but before he faced the few partners who came out of Yokohama with a new vision, or with the attitude of a transcendent , 99 Youji brought up the matter of sparring.

She said that she wanted to see the strength of the transcendent, and Lan Tang also wanted to see how strong the so-called super magician was, so he readily agreed.

As a result, he didn't see 99 Youji fully fired, but was beaten up by Fu Heisher.

It's not very accurate to say that it's a fight. If Lantang is determined to open the distance and run to the sea, Fu Heisher can only stand on the beach from a distance and gesture to Lantang with the middle finger.

And to deal with an enemy like Fu Heisher who fights purely with his body, Lantang also has a lot of tricks, such as constantly using space to turn space, or flying directly to an altitude of 8000 meters.

But Lan Tang really needs someone to beat him up to awaken the crisis instinct and sharp nerves hidden deep in his body, so he just covered a layer of subspace on the surface of his body for buffering, and then controlled the fighting range Near the beach.

The effect of sparring was indeed very good. Although I was beaten so hard that I couldn't stand up, the sharp consciousness has completely returned.

However, Lantang never expected that when he went back to Yokohama to torture the dishes, he enjoyed the sourness of a master. The arrogance in his heart had just returned a little bit, and he knew a thunder from 99 Yuki.

Zenyuan Yingji is not a magician!He is likely to be a transcendent! !

Lan Tang's mood was extremely complicated, and there was also some subtle cowardice. Thinking of the fear of being locked in by Ying Ji's golden eyes of the Zen Academy, thinking of the thoroughness and coldness all over his body, Lan Tang couldn't help but hug himself tightly.

That kind of thoroughness is terrible.

Lan Tang smiled wryly and thought, his past, present and future are completely clear under those eyes, everything is displayed clearly, there is nowhere to escape, nothing to think about, even thoughts will freeze, and time will lose its meaning.

Originally, Lan Tang could still comfort himself, but this is a powerful conjurer. The conjurer and other people with supernatural powers are two circles. Everyone has different majors. What happened?Zenyuan Eiji and himself are in the same group!They are all superhumans!

So the arrogance in Lan Tang's heart disappeared completely, and he couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "It's too dangerous outside, I'd better shrink back."

Lan Tang even felt a little regretful. If he had known that he would not be making such a big fuss in Yokohama, he should have been patient and stole the files family by family.

Lan Tang was walking along the seaside road with his head drooping, and after a while, he received a call from Ying Ji.

"I heard from Oda that you're coming to paint me black?" Eiji: "Where are you? Why haven't you come yet?"

Lan Tang said weakly: "It will be over soon."

"Are you halfway? Then you can help me bring some skewers, tempura is also fine, and bring some beer."

Yingji's voice also sounded weak: "Kuisheng is at home, and I can't eat food at home recently. Although I ate in the school cafeteria at night, I have to work on the draft all night tonight. You can bring something to eat."

After a pause, Yingji added: "Shi Er came back at night, he recently shared a room with Aoi Sheng, and he lived in my room, and he helped me post the website, you live in Oda's room, and are responsible for blacking out and posting conversations, May I?"

What else can Lan Tang say?All you can say is, "Okay, no problem."

Lan Tang moved into Ying Ji's house with a bunch of food, Xiyun kitten opened the door, Kui Sheng and Lan Si's wife were watching TV in the living room, and Lan Si of the Zen Academy did not come back at night because of his mission.

Lan Tang greeted the two ladies at the door of the living room, and then strolled to Ying Ji's room.

Eiji cheered: "Grilled fried chicken drumsticks! And beer!"

Lan Tang looked at Zenyuan Yingji, who was about to pounce all over him, and felt a hallucination of being pounced by a big black cat for a moment.

He quickly handed the food to Ying Ji: "Since Mr. Fu Hei is back, I'll buy his portion."

Yingji said casually: "He will eat outside before coming back." After a pause, Yingji curled his lips: "But Shier's appetite is better than mine, so even if you buy more, he can eat them all."

Yingji sat cross-legged on the coffee table, holding the skewer box and started eating, while looking at Lantang with interest: "What did you do? Why did Hongye stuff you here?"

Lantang sat down as if nothing had happened and took a sip of the beer bottle. He said: "Nothing, I brought Chuya out and handed it to Oda for supplementary lessons. In order to check memory, I collected all the files of other countries stationed in Yokohama offices. It was swept away, I am a foreigner. But because of time constraints, it was too late to clean up, so in order to prevent people from finding out, I set a fire before leaving."

After hearing this, Eiki felt that there was no problem with the logic, so he said, "You were kicked out of Tokyo by Hongye just because of such a small matter?"

Lan Tang was ashamed, his eyes on Shang Yingji confirmed that Yingji really didn't understand the hidden meaning of this matter, he was vague: "It's also because Miss 99 said you are a transcendent..."

"Oh, yes, you are also a transcendent."

Yingji played with the stick in his hand, and asked Lan Tang curiously: "So how is the transcendent defined? I think you fought Shier that day, your attack strength should not be as strong as Shier, right?"

Lan Tang retorted: "But my ability is more versatile than Mr. Fu Hei, and I didn't use all my strength to open the coloring book."

He looked at his hands uncertainly: "If I want to, my space will be suppressed for hundreds of miles, especially in naval battles. I can block a battlefield by myself."

Yingji let out a wow, really surprised: "Is it such a wide attack range?"

"What makes me weaker than Mr. Fuhei is strength."

Thinking of how he was rolling around on the sand like a sandbag that day, Lan Tang's expression was not very good: "Mr. Fu Hei's attack power is too terrifying, it can even tear the air in an instant, making the thinner Asian Space collapses."

Lan Tang shook his head, trying to forget about the humanoid weapon. He asked Yingji: "Is the slash that can restore memory that you didn't release last time limited by the number of attacks?"

Eiji: "Of course, I have to rest for a day or two after cutting."

"What about normal attacks?"

"No limit."

Lan Tang asked again: "Your body is stronger than ordinary people and has stronger resilience, but you can't protect your body with spell power like a conjurer, can you?"

"I have 0 mana power, so of course I can't use mana power to protect my body."

Ying Ji: "My physical strength is indeed stronger than that of ordinary people, but so far, it is almost the same as the strength of a trained ordinary magician without magic protection."

Lan Tang concluded: "Then you may indeed be a person with supernatural powers."

Instead, Yingji asked curiously: "What kind of power does the capable person consume?"

"How should I put it, it should be a comprehensive consumption, including body, spirit, will, belief, etc."

Lan Tang didn't know how to describe that feeling: "It's as if we were born with a certain special ability. We interpret and annotate it with our whole life and soul. We and the ability are one."

Yingji's eyes suddenly lit up: "I understand! Ability is actually our microcosm, our pronoun, our stick figure, and the true meaning of our existence in this world."

Lan Tang also nodded excitedly: "Yes! In fact, the spells should have similar meanings, but the spells can inherit the same spells through blood, but there have never been people with the same ability, because each of us is different. exist!"

Ying Ji repeatedly said: "Your words are really good, I will use them in comics later."

Then he reacted suddenly: "Wait, according to what you said, people with supernatural abilities cannot be inherited!"

The corners of Lan Tang's lips curled into a sarcasm, and he said slowly: "Yes, so it is very important for the government to search for capable people. There are even artificially created capable people. There are no magicians Maybe it's better than man-made?"

"Because it is impossible for people with supernatural powers to inherit through blood, we can't form a family power, which is a very useful tool for the government..." At this point, Lan Tang looked a little confused: "I seem to have a teacher. ..."

Eiji looked at Lantang strangely: "Is this for sure? Calculate the time, you are 25 years old, and you were only 19 years old when you came to Yokohama six years ago. A 19-year-old transcendent must be artificially cultivated, right?"

After hearing this, Lan Tang was silent, and he sighed: "Yes, at the age of 19, I must be arrogant and naive and self-righteous?"

A 19-year-old trained transcendent, isn't this just like Zhongyuan Zhongye, just a sharp weapon?

Thinking of Chuya Zhongyuan, Lan Tang suddenly thought of something: "Did I never go to school?"

Fleeing (?) to the Far East at the age of 19, is still a sharp weapon cultivated by the government, has such a self really gone to school?

Yingji said nonchalantly, "You can take a correspondence course."

Lan Tang shook his head: "Forget it, I have already been severely beaten by the society."

The two chatted while eating skewers and drinking beer. They also agreed to go to the nearby beach for morning exercises in the morning to test each other's limits of ability, and then...

Ying Ji returned to the desk to draw the original painting. Lan Tang tidied up the tea table, took out the dots, and carefully pasted the dots according to the marks on the original painting.

...Although I am a transcendent, but I can't fill my stomach, I should work first and be a social animal.

In the middle of the night, when Fu Heisher came home, he first strolled to Kuisheng's room. Kuisheng was sleeping soundly. Fu Heisher pressed the corner of the quilt for his wife, then turned and went to Yingji's room.

Fu Heisher sat on the other side of the coffee table to sort out the task details and precautions, and then emailed the Chanyuan Lansi to facilitate the Zenyuan Lansi to write the report.

When Lan Tang saw this scene, his mood became more peaceful. They are all workers, so work hard.

The days went by like this day by day, Yingji went to school during the day, Lantang looked through all kinds of files and information he had stolen from various offices in various countries, at night Yingji drew comics, Lantang helped paste the dots and blackened them, and sometimes Fuheisher He also pulled Lantang to do the task, after all, all three of them could do the task, but only Eiki could draw manga.

Time flies, and March comes in the blink of an eye. The climate is warming up, cherry blossoms are gradually blooming, and spring is approaching.

The riots in Yokohama finally subsided. It is said that various countries put pressure on Yokohama, and the military and police dispatched to sweep the entire city to try to catch the arsonist. The illegal organizations that dance more happily make up the number.

Taking advantage of the official purge, Mori Ogai finally got what he wanted, making Mori Club the only organization entrenched in the area near the port.

After the military and police stopped, Mori Ogai took the funds and weapons provided by Koyo Ozaki and began to expand the territory and influence of Mori Club.

Because the Takase Club was also retaliated against during the military and police cleaning operation, Mori Ogai took away the gem smuggling and sales channels of the Takase Club. Ozaki Momiji simply cooperated with Mori Ogai. She provided rough stones, and Mori Ogai was responsible for processing and sales. , instant money rolling in.

At the end of March, Mori Ogai received the first money he earned from organizing the sale of gemstones, and almost cried.

——The middle-aged entrepreneur finally succeeded. Who can understand the excitement and joy?

The turmoil in Yokohama gradually calmed down, and Rantang was relieved. In Nakahara, where Ito was studying hard, he heard Oda Sakunosuke talk about the situation in Yokohama. The boy was also relieved, and he wished Mori Ogai to get what he wanted Wish, and then I will completely bury my head in the sea of ​​books.

Under the tutelage of Oda Sakunosuke, Nakahara has already finished learning Chinese, roughly recited some English, and is fighting mathematics.

Living in the Central Plains on Leibo Street since he was a child, he was very envious of those children who can live and go to school normally, especially those who can read, recognize words, and acquire knowledge. Very hard and serious.

After Oda Sakunosuke discovered that Nakahara Chuya's foundation was poor, he took the initiative to help the boy check the terms of bondage.

Because Chuya Nakahara helped Mori Ogai pay the price, the requirements for the boy in the terms were harsh and strict, while Gaoyuan Consulting Company was only responsible for protecting the boy's life and safety, not even including information blocking.

This caused Oda Sakunosuke to have a very bad impression of the middle-aged bastard named Mori Ogai who had never met and pushed the price on the head of a 13-year-old child in Nakahara Nakaya, but since the restraint was set, Oda Sakunosuke can only try his best to help Nakahara Chuya improve his performance.

Leaving aside Zhongyuan Chuya’s assignments during the winter and summer vacations and part-time jobs after graduation to pay off debts, it is extremely difficult to get into the University of Tokyo!Especially in the Central Plains, they don't know English at all, their math foundation is 0, and they can only read a little bit of Chinese and can write their names!

After the vivid metaphor of Oda Sakunosuke, Nakahara Nakaya finally understood that if he did not study hard in the next five or six years, he would not be able to be admitted to a university of the same level as Todai University or Waseda. He also understood why the 99 Yuba extended the time It's been 15 years—he's been in middle school and high school for six years, and college for four years, and he's been bluffing through the past ten years.

To be honest, he left with Lan Tang with the determination to obtain information about his past even if he was completely used, but Zhong Yuan Zhong didn't expect to receive a study plan!

One day, the orange-haired boy finally couldn't help asking Sakunosuke Oda: "Why? Why does the company let me go to school? It's a task?"

Oda Sakunosuke couldn't help asking Nakahara Chuya: "Why? With your strength, you can change your way of life after your revenge is over. Why do you want to work for the port?"

Zhong Yuanzhong also murmured: "...I don't know."

In other words, before Oda Sakunosuke helped him sort out the terms of the studies in the bondage, he didn't even know that he could go to school.

Oda Sakunosuke smiled: "Yes, that's the reason. Reading is just a means, a means and method to let you understand that the world is vast, and there are many interesting people and things. When you graduate, you You can choose a path you like based on the experience and insights you have learned in these years of studying, and then walk on it with your whole life."

"I used to be a freelance killer in Yokohama. I read a novel but didn't see the end. When I was annoyed, someone said to me, why don't you add an ending?"

"I just realized that I can also write novels. If I want to write the ending, I can write it."

Oda Sakunosuke said with a wry smile: "But if no one tells us, we who are in the quagmire will not know that there are other paths in our lives."

Nakahara Nakaya looked at Oda Sakunosuke quietly.

Oda Sakunosuke continued: "Ozaki is the same, she is a killer, she once said that she is a flower blooming in the dark, even if she leaves the darkness, she can't wash away the blood, but she can stand in the shadows and look at the light, but Look, and the light will fall into the heart."

"She never thought that she could start a company and be the boss one day."

"Even the owner of the shop we helped watch was once a killer. He met his wife and broke the past completely. Now his wife is pregnant. He is busy taking care of his wife and dealing with the new home, so he takes care of the shop flawlessly and needs help. I simply contacted Ozaki, who has changed careers, and asked Ozaki's referral to come and help."

Oda Sakunosuke smiled: "It just so happens that I'm in high school, so it's no problem to tutor you in elementary school textbooks, so Lan Tang brought you here."

Zhong Yuanzhong was also a little surprised: "Aren't you an employee of Gao Yuan?"

Oda Sakunosuke thought for a while: "No, I'm an outsourcer and collaborator. If I am admitted to the University of Tokyo, I will live in Tokyo, and I may sign an employee contract with Ozaki at that time."

He smiled and said to Nakahara Chuya: "This shop can only be entrusted to you."

Zhong Yuan's mouth twitched: "I have to go to school during the day, right?"

Although he complained, the boy did not refuse.

Oda Sakunosuke smiled and said: "It's okay, the boss's wife will have a baby next year, and the boss will come back to work."

It is also rare for Zhongyuanzhong to have some expectations: "I have lived here for almost a month, and I haven't met the boss yet. What kind of person is he?"

Oda Sakunosuke thought for a while and said: "I think he is a good person, but the people around him don't have a good opinion of him, saying that he is a jerk and a scum."

Central Plains is also dumb.

"But the boss' brother is a very good person, and Ozaki also admires the boss' brother."

Oda Sakunosuke: "The Rando who brought you here is working for him."

Nakahara Chuya's heart moved: "What does the boss' brother do? Is he the killer who didn't go ashore?"

"...Well, he's a manga artist."

Oda Sakunosuke felt that he hadn't seen the curse spirit with his own eyes, so he probably wouldn't have any real feelings, so he only talked about Eiki's superficial work.

Oda Sakunosuke said: "There is a bookshelf in the warehouse next door to the room on the second floor. There are Shonen M magazines and separate volumes on the bookshelf. The manga is called "The Strongest Manipulator of Ghosts!" You can look through it."

Zhong Yuanzhong also hissed: "Cartoonist?"

He was awed at first, and then his face was full of doubts: "Lantang works for a cartoonist? He can also draw cartoons?"

...I always feel that Lan Tang's painting style has collapsed.

Oda Sakunosuke: "Blackening and pasting dots, you know, people in our industry have good hand speed and are very stable."

Zhongyuan Zhongye: "..."
