5t5 still hasn't turned positive today

The air in early spring is especially chilly, but the psychological consultation room in the college is always warm and bright.

For Kuno Kota, who has just entered the second grade, coming here regularly to chat with female teachers who are particularly pleasing both in terms of personality and appearance—meeting days is already a regular decompression program.

He is a good enough young genius. Most of the pressure in the first grade came from Gojo Satoru, the head teacher who was uncomfortably strong regardless of his personality. Troublesome things soon entangled him again, making him unbearable.

The pleasant and relaxed conversation lasted for a while, and only then did Jiu Neng break free from his restlessness and annoyance.

On the low table by the window, the electric kettle boiled water, making a piercing whine.

The beautiful and picturesque female teacher got up from the seat, and poured hot water to make a pot of flower and fruit tea gracefully.

The aromas of fruits and flowers are mixed together, sweet and fragrant. She poured half a cup of light red liquid into a transparent glass, then asked and looked at him, "Do you want a cup? It's not too sweet. .”

Jiu Neng nodded dispensably, and got a cup of warm and fragrant tea.

"Of course I understand how you feel,"

The temperature of the hot tea is transmitted from the stomach to the whole body, making the body seem to be soaked in a comfortable and warm liquid. After a long time, I can see a little embarrassment on the face of the female teacher opposite. She lowered her head slightly, her eyes wandering, "Obviously The information was wrong first... Even in that case, Kang Tai, you have completed the task of removing the curse, and some things are not perfect, of course it is not your fault."

After saying this, she changed the subject, raised her head, and questioned the opposite student with those dark purple eyes covered in a layer of mist, "But if you try harder, don't be so reckless, maybe that's the case. You won't die for your father and daughter... Jiu Neng, do you really have no regrets about this?"

"Why should I regret, what's the use of regret?"

Maybe it was because he was too depressed before, after complicated inquiries, Jiu Neng, who has been able to deal with it perfectly all the time, opened his lips very sharply to fight back, "This is not recklessness, it is determination!"

"If I hesitated at that time, those two people would not be the only ones who would die. Although I am a first-level conjurer, I still have trouble dealing with two first-level curses at the same time! Time is not only for those ordinary people, but also for myself. I believe this is not what Gao Zhuan wants to see, right?

Xi Yin nodded in agreement, "The situation at that time was indeed very urgent. I personally think that it is understandable for you, Jiu Neng, to take some emergency measures."

But in terms of results.

Jiu Neng himself was unharmed, but two of the ordinary people trapped at the scene died on the spot, and the other three were seriously injured—it seems unreasonable.

Xiyin lowered her head slightly, staring at the light red and fragrant tea in front of her, "I know Jiu Neng, you are troubled now, after all, you have lost your life, and the higher-ups need to give an explanation to the government officials, even if it's just a formality There will inevitably be a lot of questions.”

For a long time, she was in a trance for a moment, her beautiful and delicate face and delicate and soft words became vague and ambiguous in the fragrance of tea.

"But I still want to ask—for those who died unfortunately, Kang Tai, do you really have no guilt or regret at all?"

Jiu Neng moved the corner of his mouth, trying to say something.

He raised his head and was facing those deep purple pupils, which were both cold and deep, clear and obscure, as if he could see through everything, but also seemed to be a piece of chaos with nothing.

He suddenly failed to answer the 'correct' answer, but suddenly smiled and said: "I—I always think that you are very special, teacher, and you should be able to understand me."

"Huh?" The woman with a magical beauty asked innocently.

Jiu Neng is very sure of his judgment, "Actually, you and I are the same kind of people."

He stared straight into Xi Yin's eyes, as if he wanted to see through and confirm something.

Xiyin curled her hair with her fingers, and asked suspiciously, "What do you mean by 'same-kind'?"

"If it refers to magicians, of course we are of the same kind, not only us, but the entire college is your same kind."

"Of course I didn't mean that!"

Jiu Neng categorically denied it, and said excitedly: "If you damage a good thing, you will feel guilty, and if you hurt others, you will feel guilty. When you see others in misfortune, you can't help but imagine what it would be like to fall into that miserable situation. Compassion... That kind of thing is called empathy, right?"

Xi Yin blinked her eyes, as if wondering why he would ask such a natural question.

Then she nodded and replied in a low tone, "Yes, exactly."

Jiu Neng's hands on his knees gradually tightened, and his handsome and elegant face showed a little sinister at this moment.

He said: "I don't have that kind of emotion at all and I can't understand it, and I find it ridiculous."

Xiyin's brows moved slightly, showing a little surprise, and then calmed down like a lake surface that was rippling slightly but calmed down quickly.

She heard Jiu Neng ask: "The teacher is actually the same. I felt this way a long time ago. You should be able to understand me."

similar?How can I have any kind in this world?

Xiyin thought it was funny from the bottom of her heart, she put on an impeccable smile, "Indeed, I can always understand your thoughts and feelings, Kangtai."

"Self-interest and selfishness are human nature, so it is natural to hurt others in order to protect ourselves, but because we live in a society that requires coordination, we have received too much domestication and education since childhood, and we will gradually convince ourselves that this is true. I don’t know whether it’s luck or misfortune, among these domesticated lambs, occasionally there will be two born sober, born knowing why they live in this world.”

After speaking like this, she said to Jiu Neng with a relaxed expression on her face: "Since you have been open and honest to this point, teacher, let me ask for a while, Kang Tai, when did you start to realize that you are different from the people around you? "

"Of course it starts with consciousness."

Jiu Neng leaned on the back of the chair, his whole body language showed a sense of relaxation - in the past half a year, the cumulative effect of Xiyin's work has shown, and he has a considerable degree of trust in her.

"And I soon realized that if my abnormality was discovered by others, I would definitely be rejected, and maybe my parents would send me to the hospital or something like that."

"—I have been consciously concealing my true self, and it has been very hard. I thought that the world of conjurers could accept me, but I didn't think it would be the same as before... But I don't want to suppress it anymore."

Dark seeds bloom dark flowers, and their fragrance will surely bring misfortune.

"Don't worry." Xi Yin smiled at Jiu Neng who was eager to get approval, "Of course I understand your feelings."

"You must be very tired, go back and rest first."

"The mission of our conjurers is to exorcise the curse. Everything else is incidental. It doesn't matter if we can do our best or not. For you, Kangtai, just pay more attention in the future. Before that, you didn't— Did you do well?"

Yes, you originally pretended to be very good and easy, and you were recognized and even worshiped and loved among your lamb-like tame and dull counterparts.

With your personality, you enjoy and pursue these things, right?

So why do you want to come to the college to be a conjurer?

Exorcising curses is not an easy job for most conjurers. Even if you are as good as you, you will gradually have no room to maintain a disguise.

You don't have any sense of mission to protect the weak... So, what are you going to get from this hard work?

Thinking of this, she lowered her eyes slightly and hesitated, "Although I can understand Mrs. Kang, I also know that you are a good and motivated boy, and everything you do is to better complete the task, but you also know that everyone is I can’t accept people who are different from me.”

Jiu Neng was very sensitive and immediately realized something, "Could it be that the upper echelons of the high school are planning to do something to me?"

"No, don't get me wrong."

Xi Yin quickly denied it, and comforted her: "Kang Tai, you are the best magician in the new generation. Even if there is a small problem that is not serious, the upper management will tolerate it. However, they need to judge whether your 'problem' is controllable or not." within range."

"Those older adults are always more suspicious and cautious."

Jiu Neng's face was uncertain, and Xiyin said with some embarrassment: "So during this period of time, the upper management will pay special attention to your situation... But the more you are at this time, the less you can lose your sense of proportion. In fact, it's nothing, just do Just do what you have to do, as long as this period of time has passed."

After finishing speaking, she handed Jiu Neng a medicine box, "You have been under too much pressure recently, if you can't sleep at night or have frequent dreams, use this."

Jiu Neng took it and said gratefully: "Thank you, Ono-san, I will not disappoint your expectations."

my expectations?

Xiyin savored this sentence and smiled subtly.

two weeks later.

In the old abandoned school building, the body was in the shape of a giant umbrella. The bloated and disgusting curse was twisted and fell to the ground, not far apart. Two high school students, a male and a female, fell in a pool of blood, their expressions forever frozen in pain and fear.

Just looking at their twisted waists, they knew that there was absolutely no possibility of survival.

Looking at the miserable situation in front of him, Jiuneng Kota patted his forehead irritably.

This is just a second-level curse, and it is a fairly simple task for a conjurer like him who obtained the qualification of a first-level magician in the first grade. The guy who was screaming strangely after being rescued by others had a headache, but he couldn't stop for a while, and was solved by his spell.

Although it was his own 'mistake' that caused the tragic situation in front of him, Jiu Neng is definitely not the type who will regret what he has done.

The reason why he is annoyed now is that he has a headache about how to forge the scene and how to write a report in order to smooth this matter out now that the upper echelons are paying close attention to him.

Just as he came up with an idea, his cell phone rang.

Jiu Neng glanced at the caller number and found that it was an unfamiliar number. He hesitated for a while, but still connected, "Moxi Moxi."

"Kang Taisang, it's me."

A familiar and friendly female voice came from the other end of the phone, which made the tense Jiu Neng relax instantly.

"It's Ono-san...what's the matter?"
