Correct use of scientific spells

The vacation of Tokyo Electric Power University is earlier than that of the High School of Conjuration, but most of the members of the Lab, including Toyama Minato, live in Tokyo, and Kurisu has no plans to return to the United States for the time being, so everyone made a private meeting Alright, let's go to the shrine together for the first time.

Knowing that there are conjurers in this world, the influence of religion and gods has been weakening day by day. In addition, these people are all materialists themselves. In a sense, visiting the shrine is more like a kind of "seeing "Red and White Song Club" is a reserved activity for the New Year of the same nature.

During the New Year period, all kinds of equipment in the research room were temporarily handed over to Mr. Tianwangji to take care of them, and everyone carried a little equipment for guarding against curse spirits, and took them back to each house like ants moving.

The nearest shrine to visit is Liulin Shrine—Ruka, as the son of the head of the shrine, is very busy during the New Year. If you want to find a place where everyone can gather, the best choice is to go directly to Liulin Shrine to find him.

On that day, Luca was indeed helping the cash register at the shrine.As soon as we met, he hesitated and apologized a little embarrassedly, saying that he was too busy with work today and neglected the practice of the demon sword Wu Yueyu, but he would definitely make up before twelve o'clock tonight.

Toyama Minato also knew about the 980 yen imitation knife model, so he used it to exercise his body and planned to pick up some shrine souvenirs to take home.Whether you can buy some products and whether they are useful are two different things. New Year's Ema and shrine lottery are one of them. It seems that although the chestnut golden ball is too sweet, I don't like it so much, and it will remain unchanged every year on New Year's Day. I ate there last time.

The sign is Zhongji, which says that new opportunities will be encountered in the new year.Immediately afterwards, Phyllis Miaomiao encouraged everyone to draw the love fortune lottery. As soon as the words fell, Toyama Minato looked around and found that all his little friends had become awkward.

The specific manifestation is that Okabe and Makise looked at the sky and the ground but did not look at each other, and Hashida Zhi also stumbled and looked at the lottery booth with hesitation, and his intentions were so obvious that he could guess it at a glance.So he couldn't help sighing, college is indeed the season of love, even with the heavy work of time machine and spell detection.

Damn it, the smell of cash is everywhere.

In the end, Okabe asked everyone to smoke one in the name of collective activities. He thought this proposal was perfect, and laughed wildly to save himself.Yuan Shanju then followed to join in the fun, and the meaning of signing the letter was good, saying that he would encounter new opportunities this year.

So I took a picture and tweeted it all in one go.

After a while, Gojo Satoru left a comment, apparently still not understanding these puzzling elements of love.When he read the comics, he did see scenes where the hero and heroine are together, such as "Inuyasha" and the like-but to be honest, compared with the adventure elements of the whole work, this is not important.

After a while, Xia Youjie clicked a like for him, but there was no reply.

Except for the lottery, most of the shrine's products are just decorations with little use at home. Toyama Minato's eyes swept over them one by one. Although it hurts Ruka's heart to say so, these products are indeed of little use to him. ……etc.

He saw a row of broken magic arrows.

Specifically, it is a row of Poma Arrows with the words "Kanagawa Hamaya Bongsho" attached to the body of the arrow.

Toyama Minato:! !

He immediately grabbed Liu Hua and asked, "Where did you buy these from?"

"Yes, do you mean purchase?"

The wrist was grasped all of a sudden, and the other party was obviously puzzled: "My father has always been responsible for the purchase of these things... because my family's shrine has not passed the review of the broken magic arrow."

After inquiring in detail, I found out that Liulin Shrine’s Poma Arrows are also shipped from Kanagawa, and his family can only be regarded as a distributor under the main store—although the head of the shrine does not understand the twists and turns of Poma Arrows. Go around, and only regard this as a monopolistic behavior in the industry.

Then buy another [-], Toyama Minato said happily.

Lucia:? ?

He was shocked.

The result of the final negotiation was that Minato Toyama failed to buy all the magic-breaking arrows from Liulin Shrine on New Year's Day, but agreed to purchase from them steadily in the future.Although Luca couldn't understand why they needed such a large number of arrows, he was still very happy to be able to help his friends (it also increased the turnover of the shrine), and he planned to wait for the busy time of the New Year to pass Then I went to discuss it with my father.

Afterwards, there will be red and white songs in each house, Hakone Ekiden, and a series of traditional New Year activities.It is said that Kurisu and her father have finally gotten on better terms, but they haven't fast forwarded to the point where they can enjoy the New Year's Eve together, and Mayuri and Felice are also drawn to celebrate the New Year together.Considering that their stalls are getting bigger and bigger, Toyama Minato plans to rent another house near the school, where they can store their wonderful weapons against curse spirits and their whimsical ideas.

So during the whole winter vacation, he ran around the rental market near the school, and worked at the "window" to earn extra money.

Thanks to the crawler of online data and the analysis algorithm that became more reliable day by day, during the month of the holiday, apart from the few places that he had been continuously monitoring before, he actually discovered a curse once.

This is a P2P investment company that has caused a storm on the Internet before. After the thunder and run away, many people lost their money, and some people even made a suicide statement on the Internet.Yuanshan Minato followed these clues all the way to the company's headquarters, and was shocked to find that the business was still going on here—it was just changed to a new brand after bankruptcy and liquidation.

As soon as he walked near the building, he was chased away by the security guards, which made people feel that there was a problem here.Yuanshan Minato used drones and "spiders" to lurk in through the windows and ventilation ducts outside the building, and found an abnormal signal response.Afterwards, a series of processes that have become familiar now. During the phone call, the assistant supervisor complained with some distress, saying, "This is already the sixth financial-related spell incident this month", killing them like cockroaches in the room. Can't finish killing.

"I'll be there right away, and I'll ask Mr. Yamami to help you wait a while."

The other party said on the phone: "It doesn't matter if you can't enter the building, I will help you contact the relevant functional departments."

Afterwards, the only job left was to help keep an eye on and protect the scene. Toyama Minato was circling around the building boredly, and suddenly found that there was a foreigner younger than him staring at the upper half of the tall building with a tense expression. open windows.

Considering that the auxiliary supervisor might bring someone over to clear the venue after a while, Yuanshan Minato decided to communicate with the other party and try to avoid minors staying in the danger zone.

"……Hi?"

He switched to English: "Are you waiting for someone here?"

"……I am Japanese."

The other party seemed to have been misunderstood not once, "You are the one responsible for solving "those things"."

"Hey?"

"The magic power, I have already felt it, it can be clearly emitted from the machines around you."

The other party pointed to the mechanical dogs surrounding him: "Are you here to solve those things in the building?"

After finishing speaking, the boy looked around shyly, as if to make sure that no one was paying attention to the two of them.

The poor student's stationery is really easy to use... Today's him is still not exposed.

Obviously, the other party is a young conjurer.The young man introduced himself that his name was Jianren Nanami, and he had just moved to Tokyo with his family recently. Since his grandfather was of Danish descent, his appearance was more inherited from generation to generation.After speaking, he expressed a certain degree of curiosity about the situation inside the building, and asked politely what should be done here next.

"There will be more professional people coming."

Toyama Minato said: "It should be a graduate of the Conjuration High School... I went to an ordinary high school, and there are still more ways to deal with curse spirits."

"A high school in magic?"

"It's a school that specializes in teaching methods of exorcising curse spirits."

"Can anyone enroll?"

"The bottom line is to be able to see."

Between the two asking and answering, the assistant supervisor had already arrived at the scene.Qihai Jianren didn't intend to leave immediately, but followed the sidelines to watch the whole process. Watching the auxiliary supervisor, he first notified "the electric power maintenance is going on here, please leave the staff temporarily", and then got the Tokyo Electric Power Co. In cooperation with the power outage of the whole building, a conjurer was finally invited to go inside the building to remove the spirit.

The black tent fell from the sky.

The conjurer who came happened to be Kusakabe, and with a look of tiredness that he didn't want to go to work, he calmly drew a Tai∣sword from his waist and walked up the stairs.The whole process of solving the curse spirit did not take more than half an hour. Comparatively speaking, the time spent on evacuation and contacting around took a larger proportion.

The blond-haired boy looked thoughtful.

"I'm currently thinking about my third year of junior high school."

Qi Hai was a little moved: "I'm going to go to school this year, can I also choose a high school in magic?"

"Even if you don't take the initiative, I will try to invite you. Young conjurers are vulnerable to danger if they don't receive systematic education. Regardless of whether you plan to embark on the path of conjurers in the future, I still recommend you to come." High school."

The assistant supervisor smiled: "In this way, we are considered alumni."

It is said that Xia Youjie also used a similar method to recruit to the college. Yuan Shan thought about it, but it seemed too random and lacked any systematic way of recruiting.

...Forget it, don't think too much, they even started using fax machines in the last few years.

Jianren Qihai seriously exchanged contact information with the other party. After hesitating for a moment, he also turned to look at him and took out his mobile phone: "This...what should I call him? I haven't dealt with magicians much before."

"It's Mr. Yamami. He's studying at a university nearby."

The assistant supervisor introduced on his behalf: "I only recently came to help with a part-time job."

"Even so, I am a senior in the industry."

The young man in front of him obviously has a well-behaved personality: "Please give me more advice in the future."

After the number of tasks like this gradually increased, Minato Toyama faced a new problem.

——He can only determine the location of the curse spirit, but cannot judge the level of the curse spirit.

"Of course, I also understand that Mr. Yamami has never been active in this industry before, so he still lacks experience..."

The auxiliary supervisor showed hesitation, which was a euphemism among adults: "But if the level of the magic spirit is not reported every time, if the situation is particularly urgent, we can only give priority to dispatching high-level magicians, which is actually not conducive to Conjurer turnover in the industry."

Specifically, let high-level magicians deal with high-level magic spirits, and low-level magicians exorcise low-level magic spirits, which is more in line with the division of labor in the industry.

"Sorry, because the puppet can't clearly perceive the amount of magic power, and I don't dare to go close..."

He clasped his hands together and apologized sincerely: "Give me some more time, and I will definitely figure out a way."

Toyama Minato's attitude can't be faulted. Considering that he also has several surveillance tasks, the auxiliary supervision can't be too strict.Even so, the determination of the level of the magic spirit is still an urgent problem to be solved. They must find a method other than sonar detection to detect the magic spirit.

"How does an ordinary magician feel the strength of a spell?"

Yuan Shan went to send a message to Xia Youjie, trying to get some inspiration from him.

"Hmm... this is not easy to say?"

Unfortunately, the other party's answer was ambiguous: "You can feel it naturally, or you can "see it".You can feel the strength of the curse spirit more or less in the spell, if you really want to say which one of the five senses you experience it from, I also..."

Well, sixth sense?

Toyama Minato tried to use the bridge in the manga as an example: "Like Inuyasha feeling the strength of the enemy's demon power?"

"...that's pretty much it."

"Can you see it at a glance?"

"Sometimes you need to concentrate to feel it... If it's enlightenment, you should be able to tell it at a glance."

Gojo Satoru is not considered as a special case, but "perceiving the power of the spell" seems to be the basic skill that every conjurer possesses.

If you can observe, you can understand, if you can understand, you can interfere, if you can interfere, you can try to use it... everything is just like that.

Yuan Shan came together and said, "Mr. Xia You, please lend us a few more curse spirits."

He planned to prepare three spell spirits of different levels to be kept separately, and try to judge whether there is a gap that can be used as a reference by measuring a series of factors such as the electromagnetic environment.This process is estimated to be as tedious and lengthy as Edison's search for filament materials for electric lamps... This will be their first research goal this year.

"Yes, yes."

Xia Youjie's head was full of question marks, "But where are you going to hide these curse spirits? Most of the high-level curse spirits are surprisingly large."

"Recently, I'm actively looking for a new place to rent a house..."

"Ex-senpai, are you going to hide the curse spirit in the rented apartment?"

"It shouldn't be a problem to modify it a little bit? After all, ordinary people can't see the magic spirit, so it shouldn't affect the housing price."

"...not worrying about house prices."

Xia Youjie couldn't help but raised his thumb and pressed it to his forehead: Although he had already understood the character of his senior, sometimes he still couldn't help but want to sigh.

It's better to find a few smaller curse spirits, he thought, and there are a few good-looking ones in his collection.

The young mantra raised his arm, and with a bang, there was a mantra about the size of a desk in the room.

Level [-], the strength of the spell power is also very good... that's all.

"Zomba."

Under the oppression of his strength, the curse spirit screamed on the spot and did not move.
