Correct use of scientific spells
Chapter 25
Xia Youjie saw someone step into the huge machine.It has three supporting seats, and the whole is oval, which looks like the return capsule of a spaceship.
There are huge sail panels on both sides of it, and two pneumatic cylinders prop up the arched door, which slowly opens with the sound of deflation.
Strong winds on the roof of the building blew his bangs, and the man in his mountaineering jacket turned his back on the escalator, turned back and smiled at him before stepping into the giant machine.
Familiar, that face that couldn't be more familiar, Senior Yuan Shan.
"—"
He said.
Immediately afterwards, the air pressure door closed, and with a beep, the time machine gradually became transparent in front of him, and finally disappeared completely.
"..."
Xia Youjie sat up from the bed suddenly, it was still dark outside the window, he subconsciously reached out and rubbed his face, only to grin his teeth in pain.The skin trauma caused by the curse skeleton is not serious, but it has a sense of presence because of its location.
There's no need to use the reversal technique at this level—Gazi returned to the dormitory after leaving this sentence, and as a result, he still has bruises on his body that haven't healed.
It seems to be the sequelae of watching too many movies, he thought, but the time machine in the dream is quite different from the appearance in the movie, and he doesn't know why his imagination is so vigorous suddenly, and where the inspiration comes from.
On the desk next to him were his homework spread out, and a curse spirit jade that he hadn't had time to eat.Xia Youjie stretched out his hand to reach it, hesitated for a few seconds, and swallowed it into his mouth.After retching a few times, it melted into his mantra like a drop of water falling into ink, and then drank a few sips of water, and finally recovered.
Satoru was still asleep in the next room, showing no signs of waking up.Although this kind of practice of avoiding students of the same level when eating curse spirits sounds ugly, it is better than embarrassing in public.
Although the six eyes can clearly see the effect of the swallowed mantra in his body, it does not mean that he can also finely observe the swallowing response of the throat, his own breathing and more details at the same time.
Or he knows, but doesn't understand.This possibility is also very high, Xia Youjie took another sip of water: After all, there are quite a lot of things that Wu does not understand.
The time indicated on the phone screen was just five o'clock, and he was probably too tired to save the last conversation between him and his senior, so he fell asleep holding the phone.
Xia Youjie: So does the time machine really exist?
Minato Toyama: Although the time machine theory was declared impossible by Dr. Nakhachi a few days ago...but I still think it is feasible.
Toyama Minato: Okabe has always kept his mouth shut, but he won't lie about it.
After waiting for a few minutes, probably thinking that he was asleep, the other party said good night directly.The degree of staying up late at a college student is far from that of a well-behaved magician like him. As long as he doesn't need to stay up all night to guard the magic spirit, his work and rest have always been more regular than most people.
The time machine theory, the predecessors occasionally say something amazing.He knew that Dr. Nakahachi, whose real name was Makise Shoichi, was the father of Kurisu, who won the Nobel Prize.The effect of the time machine in science fiction stories is too amazing, and the ending of "human beings in the future are divided into two types, one preying on the other" can easily make children have nightmares, so that it is difficult for him to create this kind of art The product is connected with real life.
"Sounds like a spell."
He said.
"For us, the conjurer sounds special."
Toyama Minato replied with a smiley face.
In Chiyoda District, three male college students surrounded an old lady selling bead strings tightly, accusing each other of selling fake and shoddy products.
"If it weren't for the support magician who came in time, I would have almost died."
Yuanshan Minato said: "Your rosary is not as good as the props we made ourselves."
"And it is obviously operating without a license, and it is not paying taxes at all."
"If you call the police, you will go to jail for illegal business operations," Okabe Rintaro said.
"Although you only accept cash transactions here, as long as you call the police and let the police pull the deposit and withdrawal records of the bank account, you can get evidence of abnormal operations. The price of the rosary is seriously inconsistent with the market price, and you may be prosecuted for fraud. "
Hashida made a final addition: "Punishment for several crimes, be careful that you will spend your later years in prison."
Granny Sanzhi: "..."
She wanted to run away directly. The physical fitness of a conjurer is always stronger than that of ordinary peers, but unfortunately, there are three young men standing in front of her. Call the police.
She punched the master to death, and she was not a strong character herself.
"What! So you guys know about spells!"
Granny Sanzhi complained dejectedly: "If that's the case, why do you still come to my poor and innocent old man to buy goods... This kind of bead string is still no problem to resist the fourth-level curse spirit, and it is worth selling at this price It's worth it!"
"Poor and innocent old man" retorted in a low voice. The transaction between conjurers is not protected by law, and the price of conjuration equipment is even more huge. Even good conscience.
"But you were trying to sell it to non-artists."
Yuanshan Minato raised his eyebrows: "If you can lie to one person, how long has this behavior been going on? And it's not that conjurers can't open a shop. The three small blacksmith schools in Nara have been around for more than 1000 years. The magic tools and kitchen knives are used together. Selling, there is a clear distinction between the two sides, and I have never seen ordinary people deceived by fake and inferior products.”
That's enough information.First of all, he knew that "Sanjo Xiaojian Zongjin" was selling magic tools. Under the words, he also knew quite a lot about the world of conjurers, and he didn't seem like a character who could be deceived at will.Secondly, this group of people obviously came to trouble her intentionally, and it would be difficult to let it go if they didn't get a satisfactory result.
"Then what are you going to do?"
She said: "Forget my mistake this time... Do I want to get my money back? I'll give you 2 yuan back!"
As she spoke, she opened the small satchel she was carrying on her side, and counted out two [-] yuan banknotes from it.However, Toyama Minato didn't reach out to take the money. He shook his head and said, "I don't intend to ask you for a refund. On the contrary, I want to buy more things from here."
"……what?"
"Do you have rosary beads that can deal with the third-level curse spirits? The previous string is indeed effective, but it is not obvious, and it will anger the curse spirits. So I am thinking, you should also have the same effect here. A spell tool with a greater reserve of spell power."
His voice is steady, apparently he has rehearsed several times for today's passage: "This is Akihabara, and the electrical stores all over the street were once established by the seniors of TEPCO to help dredging relationships and submitting applications. Now We can do something similar."
Granny Sanzhi raised her head and squinted her eyes at Toyama Minato, as if she was looking at the veracity of the other party's words.
"Compared to setting up stalls along the street to sell, is it better to have a fixed channel for legal business? The three small blacksmiths have lasted for more than 30 generations. If you want, you can also become the first generation."
"When I was young, I might be moved by your words, but now I am at this age."
Granny Sanzhi replied cautiously: "It's not the age where you can be fooled by a sentence or two from young people—if you don't have enough promises and credibility, I can't trust you."
"That's okay."
Yuan Shankou replied: "Sell me some more, I want the kind of rosary beads with real materials."
Granny Sanzhi was silent for a moment, looking into his eyes.Although she is old, she still can't see the difference between a magician and a non-magician. The student in front of her is obviously "invisible", but even so, he insists on buying it from himself. A rosary that can exorcise cursed spirits.
Are you infected with a curse and want to find a way to deal with it?However, that didn't seem to be the case. The people in front of them were all clean around them, without the deep resentment of being haunted by the curse spirit.
"That's not a business that can be solved with 2 yuan."
She draws her tone: "And the spell power will dissipate if it is not continuously replenished. I can't make a spell tool that can maintain the power for years, and you don't want to buy something from me and you can do it once and for all."
Yuanshan nodded, expressing that he could fully understand, as long as the information communication between the two parties was clear enough, the most feared thing was to conceal something.
After a round of bargaining, he bought a few strings of rosary beads at a "quite surprising price for a college student", and also finalized the recharging plan after the spell power contained in them dissipated.The wood of the beads is also made of more expensive materials - considering the cost, Toyama Minato chose wood instead of crystal.
But even so, this transaction has already consumed all the rest of his bonus, and even included some of his own living expenses.
After walking out of Granny Sanzhi's field of vision, the two people who were walking with her showed some worried and disapproving attitudes.
"Ah, there's no need to be so serious, right?"
Hashida Zhi followed beside him: "The plan everyone discussed before did not say that we should be so proactive in finding a way to attack the curse spirit."
And it costs a lot of money. They are still non-sorcerers, and they can't do any effective damage to the magic spirits by themselves. After angering them, there is absolutely no good result.
"It was scary coming back with bandages on my arms and legs last time."
Okabe also said: "It's rare to reach the world line of SteinsGate! If someone dies in this world again——"
Ensuring the safety of experiments is the basis of scientific research.
In the case of knowing the danger, more prudent measures should be taken.
He has crossed countless worlds and witnessed countless tragedies, and this should be the end of his journey.
"Sorry, I also know I shouldn't involve the two of you."
Yuan Shan thought about it and said: "I was still thinking last night. It is best for me to complete the follow-up research by myself. After all, I will only know after I have experienced it once. The invisible death just chases after me and bites me." The feeling of not letting go... I don't want to experience it for the second time."
The main reason is that today's situation is special, so I can't lose my momentum in front of that old woman - no matter how old she is, the other party is also a magician. Considering the average moral standard in the forum, he is not 100% sure that he can negotiate a deal and get out unscathed.The worst plan is to call Mr. Xia You for foreign aid. The ins and outs mentioned before about the understanding of the magician is just to give the other party the first impression that he is "a half-in-the-world person".
And it was Mayuri's words that helped them make up their minds.
"Although I don't know what Minato and Okaron are looking for...but if the old lady is a bad person through and through, she shouldn't be setting up street stalls at this age, right?"
She blinked: "Of course it's not right to lie."
Considering those sorcerers who made money in the underground arena by punching or simply offering rewards for a few lives to make money, Granny Sanzhi's level really seemed to be kinder all of a sudden.
Back in time, Okabe and Hashida rejected Toyama Minato's proposal without hesitation.
"How about that!"
Hashita retorted him: "I found that forum at the beginning, right? I should be part of what I have to do afterwards."
"If you die in the hands of invisible monsters like this, then this world line still needs to be changed."
Okabe also said: "Crazy scientists can't stop at this moment! Of course, I also want to find out why Dr. Toyama is so obsessed with exploring the magic spirit..."
"Probably because of being cursed."
Toyama thought for a while and answered.
What? !The answer obviously exceeded the expectations of the two of them. Okabe even pulled out a scanner nervously, and scanned him up and down in the street, attracting many passers-by's sideways glances.Toyama Minato could only drag him to find a nearby coffee shop, and the three of them sat down in a corner before seriously talking about their reasons.
"Curse or bondage are just customary expressions on their side."
Yuanshan Minato said: "If you insist on explaining, it can probably be attributed to curiosity, exploration, obsession with not admitting defeat, and...fear."
According to the data obtained by reptiles, the average age of a conjurer is not even 40 years old. It is a profession with a very high discount rate. If you really want to study it carefully, it is even more dangerous than ordinary people.This may be attributed to the fact that the magic spirit has a higher vigilance and attack intentions against the magician, or it may be based on some principles that he is not yet clear.
The proportion of people who can see magic spirits is extremely low, but if multiplied by the population of 1.2 million people in Japan, even if this ratio is one in 4, the number of magicians will reach an astonishing [-].
"A potential danger affecting 1.2 million people, without any papers and countermeasures, and without any warnings to ordinary people, there are only two colleges in what can barely be regarded as an educational institution... and before that, there was no one People think it's not right."
Minato Yuanshan lowered his head, looking at the coffee in front of him, the latte art was dissolving little by little in the coffee cup: "The biggest fear is the unknown, so I plan to start with understanding."
A simple example: Compared with the horror movie when the ghost actually crawls out, the depression before the monster appears and the protagonist's experience of being helpless is actually a little more scary.People in the old days were afraid of natural phenomena such as thunder, lightning, and wind and rain, and even associated lightning strikes with Sugawara Michizane's wraith... In modern times, when lightning rods are widely used, few adults are afraid of lightning anymore.
No, Toyama Minato thought belatedly, to scare those high-ranking guys into building a shrine to enshrine for generations, maybe Sugawara Michizane's vengeful spirits really exist.
Understanding is the first step in overcoming fear.
The third law of mantra spirits, mantra spirits will be born from the resentment of the dead (doubtful).
Using this logic to continue to infer, the place where ordinary people have the highest probability of seeing the curse spirit should be the hospital.If we refer to "resentment" as a reference factor that has no direct evidence, we can also select places where medical troubles have occurred and critically ill wards as appropriate.
Minato Yuan Shan put on the agenda a trip to the hospital, and just halfway through the conversation, everyone's cell phones vibrated.
It's a group chat message from the Future Science Lab.
Labmen011: This year's Natsucomi[1], are you coming?I plan to cosplay at Comic Con! [expression][expression]
The other party is an otaku friend Hashida met on the Internet, and his screen name is Amayuki (Amayuki). I am a well-known cosplayer on Twitter. I was invited by Okabe to join the small future props research room shortly after I contacted him. Group, and given the number 011.Although this process was very abrupt, Senior Awanyin happily integrated into their small circle, and would invite everyone to play together in the group every time a manga exhibition or someone publishes a book.
Hashida Zhi almost threw the phone out, and after throwing it up, he received it in the air: "How can you reply? You will go?"
"I should be free to see if anyone can make appointments for photography and post-production."
Yuanshan Minato said: "It's just a good time to earn some money for experimental consumables."
"It depends on whether the assistants and Mayuri will go or not."
Okabe said: "If some of them go, I will help carry things."
"Ahhh, damn it, you two are charging now!"
Hashida Zhi grabbed his hair violently: "Everyone has their own things to do, right! I really saw the setting that girls in the upper class will die if they are exposed to the sun after chatting live for more than half an hour!"
"The setting is too complicated, it's better to return to the character set of the super hacker."
Yuan Shan made a complaint.
"But there is no chat module loaded in the part of the super hacker! And it's still with You Jitan..."
Hashida kept refreshing the chat interface nervously, but his anxiety was not empathized. Okabe told Toyama Minato in private that the future child of those two people would become Labmen008, and he is more concerned now. , My daughter has grown so tall - he gestured at the position of his ear as he spoke.
"It's hard to imagine. I thought he would be a virgin until he was 30."
"I'm going to become a magician at 30."
"According to the current direction of the world, the sentence just now should be changed to become a magician."
"? That makes sense."
The person concerned was replying to the news nervously, and didn't care about the two of them talking behind their backs. Toyama Minato also took out his mobile phone to log in to Twitter, updated his personal status, and said that he was free to accept photography and post-production commissions recently. Friends who need it can directly send a private message.
A few minutes later, Gojo Satoru gave him a hint.
His screen name and avatar are both cute and cute. Toru has added several emoticons before and after. The photos he posts every day are stacked and exaggerated desserts and expensive Japanese sweets, because he has never shown his face on the account. , Coupled with the content preference, most people think he is a rich JK.The person involved had no intention of explaining, and allowed this misunderstanding to continue to ferment, and had a great time.
After that, Toyama Minato reposted the latest cosplay work of the tweeter Awan Yuki, which was regarded as a friendly interaction in the small circle, and by the way helped the other party to promote their popularity. ComicMarket is the largest comic exhibition in Japan. It is divided into winter and summer twice a year. It is a grand event that can gather 55 fan booths and an average of [-] people in three days. Weeks of preparation are never too much.
Okabe and the others belong to the accompanying runners of the comic exhibition, and they will not publish the book in person, but Minato Toyama has been working part-time in photography and post-production since junior high school, relying on this hobby to earn pocket money, and now online Also mixed a little bit of his own fame.
Although the research on spell spirits is important, without financial support, everything will be impossible.
Private messages popped up one after another, some were asking politely, and some said they wanted to take a look at his previous works to confirm the style. Xia Youjie's private messages were caught in a large group of red dot reminders, which seemed not so eye-catching But it is very eye-catching.
@Natsuto: Are you going to participate in this year's Summer ComicMarket?
Yuan Shanchao changed the line to reply: Well, everyone is planning to go, is Xia You-kun interested in coming to play?
Xia Youjie: Actually, it's because Wu has been clamoring to come...I've never participated in this kind of event before.
Thinking about it, he was right. His family was in a small town in the north of Iwate Prefecture, and he came to Tokyo for the first time this year. Of course, he could not have participated in such a large-scale event held in Tokyo.Although I have been reading comics, and even followed the serialization of several Wang Dao Shounen comics, I guess I don't know much about the niche culture derived from it.
However, Gojo Satoru is different. Although he has never been to a manga exhibition, his appetite has already been whetted by the Internet. It is a pity that he was not allowed to go to such a crowded place before. Now he is here. When Tokyo came to school, the old orange at home finally couldn't control him anymore, and the whole person seemed as free as letting a tiger go back to the mountain.
"Let's skip class! Let's call Nitro!"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he made people want to cover his face with violent words: "The event with so many people must be very interesting!"
Xia Youjie: "..."
Although the teaching of the High School of Conjuration is quite free, the intensity of his skipping classes this semester has already faintly exceeded his bottom line.
And the homework is actually not as easy as Wu thought... His foundation is only the folklore materials he read in junior high school, which is completely incomparable with the normal teaching content of magicians. Take care of your own progress, and you can no longer delay the speed of learning.
Seeing his best friend showing a hesitant expression, Gojo Satoru grabbed the corner of his clothes and began to act like a baby without any psychological burden. He didn't realize that he was a giant male high school student with a height approaching 1.9 meters.Anyway, it is hard to study boring tasks, and you can make up for the missed homework, but you can never come back for the missed comics——There are a lot of nonsense, and the main purpose is to want to skip class and go out to play.
"And those college students will also go!"
Gojo Satoru raised his mobile phone to show him: "I've already started dating my friends!"
Two accounts, Phyllis Miaomiao and Awanyuji, also reposted Minato Toyama's news, saying that the photography and post-production techniques are very reliable, and the cooperation is very pleasant. Please give me your advice this time.
"Is senior still good at this..."
Xia Youjie took a serious look at the connections of those accounts, and it was true that all of them had Labmen numbers in their profiles.Minato Toyama once said that this was a sorting made up by Okabe on a whim, and that he belonged to the "Future Props Research Institute". In fact, only four of them are working on the development work, and the rest are just working on Play together.
"Then let's go and see together."
He made up his mind and sent a private message to the other party: "Call Nitrate together, if everyone skips class together, there is no need to write a review."
"Great!"
Gojo Satoru happily ran away: "Glass! Glass! There is a class activity! The kind that everyone must attend—"
It seemed impatient.
While waiting for a reply, he carefully checked Yuanshan Minato's twitter account for messages.Different from the line used in private, this account has posted a lot of photographic works, including tutorials on image processing, and even some teaching videos on the use of modeling software for CNC machining programming on Youtube.
There are not many likes and reposts on the video part. Obviously, the person involved did not take the operation seriously, but just recorded some tricks that he usually uses out of interest.
Toyama Minato: Some people will queue up late at night to buy books for this kind of event. Is there anything you want to buy, Mr. Xia You?I can help you pay attention.
Xia Youjie: ...Actually, no, I'm just a little curious so I want to take a look.
Toyama Minato: It’s rare to come here. There will still be places selling homemade figures and ultra-light clay ornaments, and there should be something you like.See you there!
Xia Youjie: Well, see you there.
On the day of the exhibition, the three conjurers all changed into casual clothes.
High school uniforms are special products, and they are also part of the standard spell tools, which can resist a certain degree of spell attacks.This design is very good, but unfortunately it is very hot-the design of black long-sleeved trousers is extremely attractive in summer, Gojo Satoru bluntly said that he would rather open the surgery than wear a school uniform outside.
There was a sea of people outside the exhibition area, and each of the three held an ice cream and looked around at the pre-appointed spot.
"I didn't expect that night moth guy would arrange work for people at this time..."
Gojo Satoru complained with a very unhappy expression: "I can't even enjoy the joy of coming out to play."
"I can't help it. After all, it's the summer when the spells are high, and it's a place where so many people gather—and it's Teacher Ye Moth."
Xia Youjie stretched out his hand, and a curse spirit floated out from the sleeve, and quickly and silently killed a teeny-head crowded in the crowd: "It is inevitable that a curse spirit will appear."
The sunlight was so strong that Kagero could evaporate on the ground, before Gojo Satoru's patience ran out, Toyama Minato and his party finally managed to join them.The two of them were exceptionally tall among the Japanese, and they stood in front of and behind them in the crowd. Toyama Minato, with a DSLR hanging around his neck, waved at the two of them from across the road.
"I brought iced lemonade."
He took out a thermos cup from his backpack: "I've been waiting for a long time, let's have a drink."
As a result, Xia Youjie also found a similar thermos: "Actually, I also..."
Glancing at each other's thermos, the two couldn't help but laughed.
This time Yuanshan Minato finally met the "third person" in the three-person school of the Conjuration High School.Glass has short hair and looks like he is not sleeping well. Standing in the crowd, he is no different from an ordinary high school student.However, he has been popularized about this classmate's inversion technique before, "Even injuries to the extent of missing arms and legs can be healed", and he is a very scarce talent in the industry.
"Students at home."
Xia Youjie introduced both sides: "This is Senior Yuan Shan, and..."
"Mad Scientist Houin Kishoma, my assistant Christina, the hostage Mayuri, and my right arm—"
Toyama Minato pushed Okabe aside before he finished speaking.
"It's all messy settings, don't pay attention."
He spread his hands: "Okabe, Makise, Shiina, and Hashida-san."
"I know!"
Gojo Satoru spoke enthusiastically: "Because it is very dangerous to reveal your real name at will, right! In the past, many conjurers used pseudonyms to protect themselves from directional curses, and you must have similar reasons! "
Toyama Minato maintained a smiling expression:?
This seems to be a bit out of line, and he didn't see this part when he checked the information before.
"It's the net name."
Xia Youjie dragged Gojo Wu back calmly, glanced at several college students who were farther away, stood beside Yuan Shanmin and lowered his voice: "It's like the account of the senior on YouTube is called Yamami (Yamami) Same—sorry, Satoshi lacks common sense, it's probably the first time he's playing with a non-magician who knows conjurers."
"It doesn't matter if you maintain that setting, no one here will take it seriously."
Yuan Shan smiled, and pointed to the various groups of demons dancing in the cosplay not far away: "Compared with air combat magisters, hunters, half-demons and EVA pilots, conjurers sound quite gregarious."
Xia Youjie: "..."
He looked around in all directions, and had to admit that what the senior said was indeed very reasonable.
Not far away, "Asuka" was sitting at a roadside stall, and Inuyasha next to her was playing with her mobile phone. Surrounded by the crowd, Takamachi Naoba was showing her magic device. The magic wand as a cosplay prop looked particularly well-made .
If Wu said that he was a magician at this time, everyone would only think that he was imitating some unpopular work.
It was also the first time for Naruto to come to the comic exhibition, and Mayuri and Felice put on a cat ear headband, and mixed into the non-artist's shopping team lively.Gojo Satoru originally wanted to blend in with the girls, but his own height was too prominent, and he looked taller wherever he went.
He was even more eye-catching when he wore a cat ear headband, and some people even approached him and asked what role he was in Cosplay, and whether he would accept group photos.
"Okay."
Wujo happily agreed: "But I'm not in COS, I always look like this."
"It's a self-created character (Origin Chara)."
Toyama Minato added and helped to hold up the camera: "It feels like a game character."
Is this all right?Shocked Xia Youjie was pulled over to take a group photo. The passers-by who watched the group photo completely accepted the setting and could only follow the camera.Yuanshan Minato took a few photos and then exchanged contact information, saying that it would be better to send them after Ping after returning home.
The manga exhibition is a place where all those who have niche hobbies can let themselves go. Okabe was quickly dragged by the girls to help carry the bag, and Minato Toyama helped take a few photos of Felice and Yuki. Wander around here and have a look.This time he upgraded his shooting equipment, and the drone with a camera buzzed around him, and it was really convenient to shoot bird's-eye shots from all directions and multiple angles.
Xia Youjie couldn't help but glanced at the drone: it was very small, not very noticeable in terms of size, only slightly bigger than his open palm.
However, it was very strange. In his field of vision, the drone was constantly emitting spell power—like some spell tool.
"senior."
He hesitated and opened his mouth: "Is that inside just now..."
"You feel the spell?"
Yuan Shan asked: "Sure enough, the sorcerer can perceive this."
"Well, but senior is a non-artist."
Xia Youjie frowned, and said cautiously: "It is very dangerous to touch spell tools rashly, some spell tools will actively extract the user's spell power, and non-magicists like seniors will directly extract life force instead. "
"Haha, it's not as exaggerated as you said."
Yuan Shan smiled: "It contains the rosary beads that I bought from Sanzhi's mother-in-law before. It works pretty well when used as bullets in the gun, so I put one in the drone as well."
After the incident of the curse spirit in the nursing home, Xia Youjie heard about the whole picture of the rosary, but he didn't expect that the senior would buy more this time, and the effect of the spell power was obviously improved compared to last time.
The whole process sounded fine, and the buyer and seller had reached a reasonable agreement, but he just felt something was wrong——Xia Youjie attributed this to the fact that he had seen too few conjurers, and there were actually some Do magic business with non-magicians.
And... after all, the senior is not an ordinary non-artist. Xia Youjie watched the back of the other party taking pictures, and Yuan Shanmin, who was in the state of photography work, looked like he had never seen before. He had a solid foundation and skilled skills, so he should be Experience accumulated in the early years.
At an even younger age, he spoke to many people about the curse spirit, but none of them succeeded.As for the situation of "the non-magic master actively discovering the secret of the curse spirit", there will not be many times since the Heian period thousands of years ago-otherwise, even Teacher Ye Moth would not be so surprised.
He opened his mouth to say something, but at this moment, Gojo Satoru suddenly jumped over from a distance and hung on his body.
"Jay!"
Gojo Satoru said, "There are takoyaki without octopus over there!"
Xia Youjie:?
What are you talking about, there is no octopus in takoyaki.
However, Gojo Satoru chattered endlessly with a large shopping bag, which was already filled with all kinds of things he bought, and he planned to move to the new venue next, saying that there was a gingerbread linked with the manga.
Xia Youjie glanced at his shopping bag, good guy, it's full of children's works, and some comics for all ages, so healthy that it couldn't be healthier.
"Don't forget we still have missions."
He reminded the other party: "If you find the curse spirit, tell me first, don't disturb the exhibitors, let me solve it—"
"Jie is just too talkative! Wrinkles will come from chattering!"
Gojo Satoru stuck out his tongue and rolled his eyes, "You don't need to worry about things that can be solved in a second!"
After he finished speaking, he ran away. Xia Youjie originally wanted to chase after him, but felt that it would not be good to leave without saying hello. While hesitating, Yuanshan Minato had already walked beside him, obviously overhearing their conversation just now.
"Task?"
He was a little surprised: "I thought you guys were here to play today... you're only 15 years old?"
Xia Youjie was born in 90. If it weren't for his tall stature, even the purchase of R16 doujinben would be restricted. I don't think it is necessary to send a few students here to work here - not to mention that there are police officers on duty near the venue.
Xia You showed a subtle expression when he heard the words: "Let's not say whether the estimated number is correct... Senior doesn't know much about me and Wu's situation, right?"
He looked into Toyama Minato's eyes: "The classification of conjurers doesn't matter their age, it only depends on their ability to exorcise curse spirits - Wu and I are better than most conjurers in this regard."
When it came to the last part of boasting, Xia Youjie couldn't help but flexed his index finger and scratched his face, but in the end he still thought that there was no problem with what he said. be more humble
There are huge sail panels on both sides of it, and two pneumatic cylinders prop up the arched door, which slowly opens with the sound of deflation.
Strong winds on the roof of the building blew his bangs, and the man in his mountaineering jacket turned his back on the escalator, turned back and smiled at him before stepping into the giant machine.
Familiar, that face that couldn't be more familiar, Senior Yuan Shan.
"—"
He said.
Immediately afterwards, the air pressure door closed, and with a beep, the time machine gradually became transparent in front of him, and finally disappeared completely.
"..."
Xia Youjie sat up from the bed suddenly, it was still dark outside the window, he subconsciously reached out and rubbed his face, only to grin his teeth in pain.The skin trauma caused by the curse skeleton is not serious, but it has a sense of presence because of its location.
There's no need to use the reversal technique at this level—Gazi returned to the dormitory after leaving this sentence, and as a result, he still has bruises on his body that haven't healed.
It seems to be the sequelae of watching too many movies, he thought, but the time machine in the dream is quite different from the appearance in the movie, and he doesn't know why his imagination is so vigorous suddenly, and where the inspiration comes from.
On the desk next to him were his homework spread out, and a curse spirit jade that he hadn't had time to eat.Xia Youjie stretched out his hand to reach it, hesitated for a few seconds, and swallowed it into his mouth.After retching a few times, it melted into his mantra like a drop of water falling into ink, and then drank a few sips of water, and finally recovered.
Satoru was still asleep in the next room, showing no signs of waking up.Although this kind of practice of avoiding students of the same level when eating curse spirits sounds ugly, it is better than embarrassing in public.
Although the six eyes can clearly see the effect of the swallowed mantra in his body, it does not mean that he can also finely observe the swallowing response of the throat, his own breathing and more details at the same time.
Or he knows, but doesn't understand.This possibility is also very high, Xia Youjie took another sip of water: After all, there are quite a lot of things that Wu does not understand.
The time indicated on the phone screen was just five o'clock, and he was probably too tired to save the last conversation between him and his senior, so he fell asleep holding the phone.
Xia Youjie: So does the time machine really exist?
Minato Toyama: Although the time machine theory was declared impossible by Dr. Nakhachi a few days ago...but I still think it is feasible.
Toyama Minato: Okabe has always kept his mouth shut, but he won't lie about it.
After waiting for a few minutes, probably thinking that he was asleep, the other party said good night directly.The degree of staying up late at a college student is far from that of a well-behaved magician like him. As long as he doesn't need to stay up all night to guard the magic spirit, his work and rest have always been more regular than most people.
The time machine theory, the predecessors occasionally say something amazing.He knew that Dr. Nakahachi, whose real name was Makise Shoichi, was the father of Kurisu, who won the Nobel Prize.The effect of the time machine in science fiction stories is too amazing, and the ending of "human beings in the future are divided into two types, one preying on the other" can easily make children have nightmares, so that it is difficult for him to create this kind of art The product is connected with real life.
"Sounds like a spell."
He said.
"For us, the conjurer sounds special."
Toyama Minato replied with a smiley face.
In Chiyoda District, three male college students surrounded an old lady selling bead strings tightly, accusing each other of selling fake and shoddy products.
"If it weren't for the support magician who came in time, I would have almost died."
Yuanshan Minato said: "Your rosary is not as good as the props we made ourselves."
"And it is obviously operating without a license, and it is not paying taxes at all."
"If you call the police, you will go to jail for illegal business operations," Okabe Rintaro said.
"Although you only accept cash transactions here, as long as you call the police and let the police pull the deposit and withdrawal records of the bank account, you can get evidence of abnormal operations. The price of the rosary is seriously inconsistent with the market price, and you may be prosecuted for fraud. "
Hashida made a final addition: "Punishment for several crimes, be careful that you will spend your later years in prison."
Granny Sanzhi: "..."
She wanted to run away directly. The physical fitness of a conjurer is always stronger than that of ordinary peers, but unfortunately, there are three young men standing in front of her. Call the police.
She punched the master to death, and she was not a strong character herself.
"What! So you guys know about spells!"
Granny Sanzhi complained dejectedly: "If that's the case, why do you still come to my poor and innocent old man to buy goods... This kind of bead string is still no problem to resist the fourth-level curse spirit, and it is worth selling at this price It's worth it!"
"Poor and innocent old man" retorted in a low voice. The transaction between conjurers is not protected by law, and the price of conjuration equipment is even more huge. Even good conscience.
"But you were trying to sell it to non-artists."
Yuanshan Minato raised his eyebrows: "If you can lie to one person, how long has this behavior been going on? And it's not that conjurers can't open a shop. The three small blacksmith schools in Nara have been around for more than 1000 years. The magic tools and kitchen knives are used together. Selling, there is a clear distinction between the two sides, and I have never seen ordinary people deceived by fake and inferior products.”
That's enough information.First of all, he knew that "Sanjo Xiaojian Zongjin" was selling magic tools. Under the words, he also knew quite a lot about the world of conjurers, and he didn't seem like a character who could be deceived at will.Secondly, this group of people obviously came to trouble her intentionally, and it would be difficult to let it go if they didn't get a satisfactory result.
"Then what are you going to do?"
She said: "Forget my mistake this time... Do I want to get my money back? I'll give you 2 yuan back!"
As she spoke, she opened the small satchel she was carrying on her side, and counted out two [-] yuan banknotes from it.However, Toyama Minato didn't reach out to take the money. He shook his head and said, "I don't intend to ask you for a refund. On the contrary, I want to buy more things from here."
"……what?"
"Do you have rosary beads that can deal with the third-level curse spirits? The previous string is indeed effective, but it is not obvious, and it will anger the curse spirits. So I am thinking, you should also have the same effect here. A spell tool with a greater reserve of spell power."
His voice is steady, apparently he has rehearsed several times for today's passage: "This is Akihabara, and the electrical stores all over the street were once established by the seniors of TEPCO to help dredging relationships and submitting applications. Now We can do something similar."
Granny Sanzhi raised her head and squinted her eyes at Toyama Minato, as if she was looking at the veracity of the other party's words.
"Compared to setting up stalls along the street to sell, is it better to have a fixed channel for legal business? The three small blacksmiths have lasted for more than 30 generations. If you want, you can also become the first generation."
"When I was young, I might be moved by your words, but now I am at this age."
Granny Sanzhi replied cautiously: "It's not the age where you can be fooled by a sentence or two from young people—if you don't have enough promises and credibility, I can't trust you."
"That's okay."
Yuan Shankou replied: "Sell me some more, I want the kind of rosary beads with real materials."
Granny Sanzhi was silent for a moment, looking into his eyes.Although she is old, she still can't see the difference between a magician and a non-magician. The student in front of her is obviously "invisible", but even so, he insists on buying it from himself. A rosary that can exorcise cursed spirits.
Are you infected with a curse and want to find a way to deal with it?However, that didn't seem to be the case. The people in front of them were all clean around them, without the deep resentment of being haunted by the curse spirit.
"That's not a business that can be solved with 2 yuan."
She draws her tone: "And the spell power will dissipate if it is not continuously replenished. I can't make a spell tool that can maintain the power for years, and you don't want to buy something from me and you can do it once and for all."
Yuanshan nodded, expressing that he could fully understand, as long as the information communication between the two parties was clear enough, the most feared thing was to conceal something.
After a round of bargaining, he bought a few strings of rosary beads at a "quite surprising price for a college student", and also finalized the recharging plan after the spell power contained in them dissipated.The wood of the beads is also made of more expensive materials - considering the cost, Toyama Minato chose wood instead of crystal.
But even so, this transaction has already consumed all the rest of his bonus, and even included some of his own living expenses.
After walking out of Granny Sanzhi's field of vision, the two people who were walking with her showed some worried and disapproving attitudes.
"Ah, there's no need to be so serious, right?"
Hashida Zhi followed beside him: "The plan everyone discussed before did not say that we should be so proactive in finding a way to attack the curse spirit."
And it costs a lot of money. They are still non-sorcerers, and they can't do any effective damage to the magic spirits by themselves. After angering them, there is absolutely no good result.
"It was scary coming back with bandages on my arms and legs last time."
Okabe also said: "It's rare to reach the world line of SteinsGate! If someone dies in this world again——"
Ensuring the safety of experiments is the basis of scientific research.
In the case of knowing the danger, more prudent measures should be taken.
He has crossed countless worlds and witnessed countless tragedies, and this should be the end of his journey.
"Sorry, I also know I shouldn't involve the two of you."
Yuan Shan thought about it and said: "I was still thinking last night. It is best for me to complete the follow-up research by myself. After all, I will only know after I have experienced it once. The invisible death just chases after me and bites me." The feeling of not letting go... I don't want to experience it for the second time."
The main reason is that today's situation is special, so I can't lose my momentum in front of that old woman - no matter how old she is, the other party is also a magician. Considering the average moral standard in the forum, he is not 100% sure that he can negotiate a deal and get out unscathed.The worst plan is to call Mr. Xia You for foreign aid. The ins and outs mentioned before about the understanding of the magician is just to give the other party the first impression that he is "a half-in-the-world person".
And it was Mayuri's words that helped them make up their minds.
"Although I don't know what Minato and Okaron are looking for...but if the old lady is a bad person through and through, she shouldn't be setting up street stalls at this age, right?"
She blinked: "Of course it's not right to lie."
Considering those sorcerers who made money in the underground arena by punching or simply offering rewards for a few lives to make money, Granny Sanzhi's level really seemed to be kinder all of a sudden.
Back in time, Okabe and Hashida rejected Toyama Minato's proposal without hesitation.
"How about that!"
Hashita retorted him: "I found that forum at the beginning, right? I should be part of what I have to do afterwards."
"If you die in the hands of invisible monsters like this, then this world line still needs to be changed."
Okabe also said: "Crazy scientists can't stop at this moment! Of course, I also want to find out why Dr. Toyama is so obsessed with exploring the magic spirit..."
"Probably because of being cursed."
Toyama thought for a while and answered.
What? !The answer obviously exceeded the expectations of the two of them. Okabe even pulled out a scanner nervously, and scanned him up and down in the street, attracting many passers-by's sideways glances.Toyama Minato could only drag him to find a nearby coffee shop, and the three of them sat down in a corner before seriously talking about their reasons.
"Curse or bondage are just customary expressions on their side."
Yuanshan Minato said: "If you insist on explaining, it can probably be attributed to curiosity, exploration, obsession with not admitting defeat, and...fear."
According to the data obtained by reptiles, the average age of a conjurer is not even 40 years old. It is a profession with a very high discount rate. If you really want to study it carefully, it is even more dangerous than ordinary people.This may be attributed to the fact that the magic spirit has a higher vigilance and attack intentions against the magician, or it may be based on some principles that he is not yet clear.
The proportion of people who can see magic spirits is extremely low, but if multiplied by the population of 1.2 million people in Japan, even if this ratio is one in 4, the number of magicians will reach an astonishing [-].
"A potential danger affecting 1.2 million people, without any papers and countermeasures, and without any warnings to ordinary people, there are only two colleges in what can barely be regarded as an educational institution... and before that, there was no one People think it's not right."
Minato Yuanshan lowered his head, looking at the coffee in front of him, the latte art was dissolving little by little in the coffee cup: "The biggest fear is the unknown, so I plan to start with understanding."
A simple example: Compared with the horror movie when the ghost actually crawls out, the depression before the monster appears and the protagonist's experience of being helpless is actually a little more scary.People in the old days were afraid of natural phenomena such as thunder, lightning, and wind and rain, and even associated lightning strikes with Sugawara Michizane's wraith... In modern times, when lightning rods are widely used, few adults are afraid of lightning anymore.
No, Toyama Minato thought belatedly, to scare those high-ranking guys into building a shrine to enshrine for generations, maybe Sugawara Michizane's vengeful spirits really exist.
Understanding is the first step in overcoming fear.
The third law of mantra spirits, mantra spirits will be born from the resentment of the dead (doubtful).
Using this logic to continue to infer, the place where ordinary people have the highest probability of seeing the curse spirit should be the hospital.If we refer to "resentment" as a reference factor that has no direct evidence, we can also select places where medical troubles have occurred and critically ill wards as appropriate.
Minato Yuan Shan put on the agenda a trip to the hospital, and just halfway through the conversation, everyone's cell phones vibrated.
It's a group chat message from the Future Science Lab.
Labmen011: This year's Natsucomi[1], are you coming?I plan to cosplay at Comic Con! [expression][expression]
The other party is an otaku friend Hashida met on the Internet, and his screen name is Amayuki (Amayuki). I am a well-known cosplayer on Twitter. I was invited by Okabe to join the small future props research room shortly after I contacted him. Group, and given the number 011.Although this process was very abrupt, Senior Awanyin happily integrated into their small circle, and would invite everyone to play together in the group every time a manga exhibition or someone publishes a book.
Hashida Zhi almost threw the phone out, and after throwing it up, he received it in the air: "How can you reply? You will go?"
"I should be free to see if anyone can make appointments for photography and post-production."
Yuanshan Minato said: "It's just a good time to earn some money for experimental consumables."
"It depends on whether the assistants and Mayuri will go or not."
Okabe said: "If some of them go, I will help carry things."
"Ahhh, damn it, you two are charging now!"
Hashida Zhi grabbed his hair violently: "Everyone has their own things to do, right! I really saw the setting that girls in the upper class will die if they are exposed to the sun after chatting live for more than half an hour!"
"The setting is too complicated, it's better to return to the character set of the super hacker."
Yuan Shan made a complaint.
"But there is no chat module loaded in the part of the super hacker! And it's still with You Jitan..."
Hashida kept refreshing the chat interface nervously, but his anxiety was not empathized. Okabe told Toyama Minato in private that the future child of those two people would become Labmen008, and he is more concerned now. , My daughter has grown so tall - he gestured at the position of his ear as he spoke.
"It's hard to imagine. I thought he would be a virgin until he was 30."
"I'm going to become a magician at 30."
"According to the current direction of the world, the sentence just now should be changed to become a magician."
"? That makes sense."
The person concerned was replying to the news nervously, and didn't care about the two of them talking behind their backs. Toyama Minato also took out his mobile phone to log in to Twitter, updated his personal status, and said that he was free to accept photography and post-production commissions recently. Friends who need it can directly send a private message.
A few minutes later, Gojo Satoru gave him a hint.
His screen name and avatar are both cute and cute. Toru has added several emoticons before and after. The photos he posts every day are stacked and exaggerated desserts and expensive Japanese sweets, because he has never shown his face on the account. , Coupled with the content preference, most people think he is a rich JK.The person involved had no intention of explaining, and allowed this misunderstanding to continue to ferment, and had a great time.
After that, Toyama Minato reposted the latest cosplay work of the tweeter Awan Yuki, which was regarded as a friendly interaction in the small circle, and by the way helped the other party to promote their popularity. ComicMarket is the largest comic exhibition in Japan. It is divided into winter and summer twice a year. It is a grand event that can gather 55 fan booths and an average of [-] people in three days. Weeks of preparation are never too much.
Okabe and the others belong to the accompanying runners of the comic exhibition, and they will not publish the book in person, but Minato Toyama has been working part-time in photography and post-production since junior high school, relying on this hobby to earn pocket money, and now online Also mixed a little bit of his own fame.
Although the research on spell spirits is important, without financial support, everything will be impossible.
Private messages popped up one after another, some were asking politely, and some said they wanted to take a look at his previous works to confirm the style. Xia Youjie's private messages were caught in a large group of red dot reminders, which seemed not so eye-catching But it is very eye-catching.
@Natsuto: Are you going to participate in this year's Summer ComicMarket?
Yuan Shanchao changed the line to reply: Well, everyone is planning to go, is Xia You-kun interested in coming to play?
Xia Youjie: Actually, it's because Wu has been clamoring to come...I've never participated in this kind of event before.
Thinking about it, he was right. His family was in a small town in the north of Iwate Prefecture, and he came to Tokyo for the first time this year. Of course, he could not have participated in such a large-scale event held in Tokyo.Although I have been reading comics, and even followed the serialization of several Wang Dao Shounen comics, I guess I don't know much about the niche culture derived from it.
However, Gojo Satoru is different. Although he has never been to a manga exhibition, his appetite has already been whetted by the Internet. It is a pity that he was not allowed to go to such a crowded place before. Now he is here. When Tokyo came to school, the old orange at home finally couldn't control him anymore, and the whole person seemed as free as letting a tiger go back to the mountain.
"Let's skip class! Let's call Nitro!"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he made people want to cover his face with violent words: "The event with so many people must be very interesting!"
Xia Youjie: "..."
Although the teaching of the High School of Conjuration is quite free, the intensity of his skipping classes this semester has already faintly exceeded his bottom line.
And the homework is actually not as easy as Wu thought... His foundation is only the folklore materials he read in junior high school, which is completely incomparable with the normal teaching content of magicians. Take care of your own progress, and you can no longer delay the speed of learning.
Seeing his best friend showing a hesitant expression, Gojo Satoru grabbed the corner of his clothes and began to act like a baby without any psychological burden. He didn't realize that he was a giant male high school student with a height approaching 1.9 meters.Anyway, it is hard to study boring tasks, and you can make up for the missed homework, but you can never come back for the missed comics——There are a lot of nonsense, and the main purpose is to want to skip class and go out to play.
"And those college students will also go!"
Gojo Satoru raised his mobile phone to show him: "I've already started dating my friends!"
Two accounts, Phyllis Miaomiao and Awanyuji, also reposted Minato Toyama's news, saying that the photography and post-production techniques are very reliable, and the cooperation is very pleasant. Please give me your advice this time.
"Is senior still good at this..."
Xia Youjie took a serious look at the connections of those accounts, and it was true that all of them had Labmen numbers in their profiles.Minato Toyama once said that this was a sorting made up by Okabe on a whim, and that he belonged to the "Future Props Research Institute". In fact, only four of them are working on the development work, and the rest are just working on Play together.
"Then let's go and see together."
He made up his mind and sent a private message to the other party: "Call Nitrate together, if everyone skips class together, there is no need to write a review."
"Great!"
Gojo Satoru happily ran away: "Glass! Glass! There is a class activity! The kind that everyone must attend—"
It seemed impatient.
While waiting for a reply, he carefully checked Yuanshan Minato's twitter account for messages.Different from the line used in private, this account has posted a lot of photographic works, including tutorials on image processing, and even some teaching videos on the use of modeling software for CNC machining programming on Youtube.
There are not many likes and reposts on the video part. Obviously, the person involved did not take the operation seriously, but just recorded some tricks that he usually uses out of interest.
Toyama Minato: Some people will queue up late at night to buy books for this kind of event. Is there anything you want to buy, Mr. Xia You?I can help you pay attention.
Xia Youjie: ...Actually, no, I'm just a little curious so I want to take a look.
Toyama Minato: It’s rare to come here. There will still be places selling homemade figures and ultra-light clay ornaments, and there should be something you like.See you there!
Xia Youjie: Well, see you there.
On the day of the exhibition, the three conjurers all changed into casual clothes.
High school uniforms are special products, and they are also part of the standard spell tools, which can resist a certain degree of spell attacks.This design is very good, but unfortunately it is very hot-the design of black long-sleeved trousers is extremely attractive in summer, Gojo Satoru bluntly said that he would rather open the surgery than wear a school uniform outside.
There was a sea of people outside the exhibition area, and each of the three held an ice cream and looked around at the pre-appointed spot.
"I didn't expect that night moth guy would arrange work for people at this time..."
Gojo Satoru complained with a very unhappy expression: "I can't even enjoy the joy of coming out to play."
"I can't help it. After all, it's the summer when the spells are high, and it's a place where so many people gather—and it's Teacher Ye Moth."
Xia Youjie stretched out his hand, and a curse spirit floated out from the sleeve, and quickly and silently killed a teeny-head crowded in the crowd: "It is inevitable that a curse spirit will appear."
The sunlight was so strong that Kagero could evaporate on the ground, before Gojo Satoru's patience ran out, Toyama Minato and his party finally managed to join them.The two of them were exceptionally tall among the Japanese, and they stood in front of and behind them in the crowd. Toyama Minato, with a DSLR hanging around his neck, waved at the two of them from across the road.
"I brought iced lemonade."
He took out a thermos cup from his backpack: "I've been waiting for a long time, let's have a drink."
As a result, Xia Youjie also found a similar thermos: "Actually, I also..."
Glancing at each other's thermos, the two couldn't help but laughed.
This time Yuanshan Minato finally met the "third person" in the three-person school of the Conjuration High School.Glass has short hair and looks like he is not sleeping well. Standing in the crowd, he is no different from an ordinary high school student.However, he has been popularized about this classmate's inversion technique before, "Even injuries to the extent of missing arms and legs can be healed", and he is a very scarce talent in the industry.
"Students at home."
Xia Youjie introduced both sides: "This is Senior Yuan Shan, and..."
"Mad Scientist Houin Kishoma, my assistant Christina, the hostage Mayuri, and my right arm—"
Toyama Minato pushed Okabe aside before he finished speaking.
"It's all messy settings, don't pay attention."
He spread his hands: "Okabe, Makise, Shiina, and Hashida-san."
"I know!"
Gojo Satoru spoke enthusiastically: "Because it is very dangerous to reveal your real name at will, right! In the past, many conjurers used pseudonyms to protect themselves from directional curses, and you must have similar reasons! "
Toyama Minato maintained a smiling expression:?
This seems to be a bit out of line, and he didn't see this part when he checked the information before.
"It's the net name."
Xia Youjie dragged Gojo Wu back calmly, glanced at several college students who were farther away, stood beside Yuan Shanmin and lowered his voice: "It's like the account of the senior on YouTube is called Yamami (Yamami) Same—sorry, Satoshi lacks common sense, it's probably the first time he's playing with a non-magician who knows conjurers."
"It doesn't matter if you maintain that setting, no one here will take it seriously."
Yuan Shan smiled, and pointed to the various groups of demons dancing in the cosplay not far away: "Compared with air combat magisters, hunters, half-demons and EVA pilots, conjurers sound quite gregarious."
Xia Youjie: "..."
He looked around in all directions, and had to admit that what the senior said was indeed very reasonable.
Not far away, "Asuka" was sitting at a roadside stall, and Inuyasha next to her was playing with her mobile phone. Surrounded by the crowd, Takamachi Naoba was showing her magic device. The magic wand as a cosplay prop looked particularly well-made .
If Wu said that he was a magician at this time, everyone would only think that he was imitating some unpopular work.
It was also the first time for Naruto to come to the comic exhibition, and Mayuri and Felice put on a cat ear headband, and mixed into the non-artist's shopping team lively.Gojo Satoru originally wanted to blend in with the girls, but his own height was too prominent, and he looked taller wherever he went.
He was even more eye-catching when he wore a cat ear headband, and some people even approached him and asked what role he was in Cosplay, and whether he would accept group photos.
"Okay."
Wujo happily agreed: "But I'm not in COS, I always look like this."
"It's a self-created character (Origin Chara)."
Toyama Minato added and helped to hold up the camera: "It feels like a game character."
Is this all right?Shocked Xia Youjie was pulled over to take a group photo. The passers-by who watched the group photo completely accepted the setting and could only follow the camera.Yuanshan Minato took a few photos and then exchanged contact information, saying that it would be better to send them after Ping after returning home.
The manga exhibition is a place where all those who have niche hobbies can let themselves go. Okabe was quickly dragged by the girls to help carry the bag, and Minato Toyama helped take a few photos of Felice and Yuki. Wander around here and have a look.This time he upgraded his shooting equipment, and the drone with a camera buzzed around him, and it was really convenient to shoot bird's-eye shots from all directions and multiple angles.
Xia Youjie couldn't help but glanced at the drone: it was very small, not very noticeable in terms of size, only slightly bigger than his open palm.
However, it was very strange. In his field of vision, the drone was constantly emitting spell power—like some spell tool.
"senior."
He hesitated and opened his mouth: "Is that inside just now..."
"You feel the spell?"
Yuan Shan asked: "Sure enough, the sorcerer can perceive this."
"Well, but senior is a non-artist."
Xia Youjie frowned, and said cautiously: "It is very dangerous to touch spell tools rashly, some spell tools will actively extract the user's spell power, and non-magicists like seniors will directly extract life force instead. "
"Haha, it's not as exaggerated as you said."
Yuan Shan smiled: "It contains the rosary beads that I bought from Sanzhi's mother-in-law before. It works pretty well when used as bullets in the gun, so I put one in the drone as well."
After the incident of the curse spirit in the nursing home, Xia Youjie heard about the whole picture of the rosary, but he didn't expect that the senior would buy more this time, and the effect of the spell power was obviously improved compared to last time.
The whole process sounded fine, and the buyer and seller had reached a reasonable agreement, but he just felt something was wrong——Xia Youjie attributed this to the fact that he had seen too few conjurers, and there were actually some Do magic business with non-magicians.
And... after all, the senior is not an ordinary non-artist. Xia Youjie watched the back of the other party taking pictures, and Yuan Shanmin, who was in the state of photography work, looked like he had never seen before. He had a solid foundation and skilled skills, so he should be Experience accumulated in the early years.
At an even younger age, he spoke to many people about the curse spirit, but none of them succeeded.As for the situation of "the non-magic master actively discovering the secret of the curse spirit", there will not be many times since the Heian period thousands of years ago-otherwise, even Teacher Ye Moth would not be so surprised.
He opened his mouth to say something, but at this moment, Gojo Satoru suddenly jumped over from a distance and hung on his body.
"Jay!"
Gojo Satoru said, "There are takoyaki without octopus over there!"
Xia Youjie:?
What are you talking about, there is no octopus in takoyaki.
However, Gojo Satoru chattered endlessly with a large shopping bag, which was already filled with all kinds of things he bought, and he planned to move to the new venue next, saying that there was a gingerbread linked with the manga.
Xia Youjie glanced at his shopping bag, good guy, it's full of children's works, and some comics for all ages, so healthy that it couldn't be healthier.
"Don't forget we still have missions."
He reminded the other party: "If you find the curse spirit, tell me first, don't disturb the exhibitors, let me solve it—"
"Jie is just too talkative! Wrinkles will come from chattering!"
Gojo Satoru stuck out his tongue and rolled his eyes, "You don't need to worry about things that can be solved in a second!"
After he finished speaking, he ran away. Xia Youjie originally wanted to chase after him, but felt that it would not be good to leave without saying hello. While hesitating, Yuanshan Minato had already walked beside him, obviously overhearing their conversation just now.
"Task?"
He was a little surprised: "I thought you guys were here to play today... you're only 15 years old?"
Xia Youjie was born in 90. If it weren't for his tall stature, even the purchase of R16 doujinben would be restricted. I don't think it is necessary to send a few students here to work here - not to mention that there are police officers on duty near the venue.
Xia You showed a subtle expression when he heard the words: "Let's not say whether the estimated number is correct... Senior doesn't know much about me and Wu's situation, right?"
He looked into Toyama Minato's eyes: "The classification of conjurers doesn't matter their age, it only depends on their ability to exorcise curse spirits - Wu and I are better than most conjurers in this regard."
When it came to the last part of boasting, Xia Youjie couldn't help but flexed his index finger and scratched his face, but in the end he still thought that there was no problem with what he said. be more humble
