Zongman started from grabbing girls with Wuhe Shidao

"──Besides, at that time, I always felt that I was gradually turning into a cold machine, which felt terrible."

Index smiled.

Although it is a smile that looks like it will collapse at any time, it carries the consciousness that it will never let others worry about itself.

This is definitely not an expression that a machine can make.

Such a smile, only humans can do.

"……sorry."

Kamijou couldn't help apologizing to her.Kamijou felt so shameful that he suspected that she was not human just now.

"Why do you need to apologize, idiot!" Index didn't say anything, just smiled.Then he said: "Do you want to eat? Porridge, fruit, snacks! We have everything a patient should eat!"

"Look how I want to eat with my hands like this──"

Before Kamijou finished speaking, he saw Index's right hand holding the chopsticks in a clenched fist.

"...Uh...Miss Index?"

"Huh? Why should you be embarrassed now? If I didn't feed you like this, you would have starved to death in the past three days."

"...Uh...forget it, please give me some time first, let me think about what this means."

"What's wrong? No appetite?" Index put down her chopsticks and said, "Then do you want to wipe your body?"

"…Uh……?"

An indescribable sense of unease invaded Kamijou's whole body.

Hey, what is this?What was this indescribably terrible premonition?I always feel uneasy that if everything that happened in the room in the past three days was recorded by a video camera, I would definitely die of shame after watching it...

"...Anyway, I know you mean no harm, but sit down and listen carefully, Index."

Index was full of question marks, she was silent for a while and said, "I was sitting down?"

"..."

Index, who was holding the towel, had 100% good intentions, but for such an "innocent" Index, Kamijou really had nothing to do with her.

"what's up?"

"Uh..." Kamijou couldn't think of what to say, so he decided to slap his head and pass by: "I look up at your face from under the quilt like this, and I always feel..."

"Would it be strange? I'm a nun, and taking care of the sick doesn't bother me."

Not surprising.The pure white monk's uniform and mother-like behavior made her look like a real nun now.

And more importantly...

Her cheeks were flushed from tears, and Index, who was looking at Kamijou with tears in her eyes, looked good...

The next sentence was unwilling to say it.So he had to say:

"It's nothing, I just found out that you even have white nose hair."

"..."

Index's smile just froze.

"Dangma! Douma! What do you see on my right hand?"

"What? Isn't it just porridge... Wait... Wait! Don't drop it..."

Next, for the unfortunate Kamijou Touma, all eyes were stained white by porridge and bowls.

Kamijou, who personally experienced that the porridge stained on the quilt and pajamas was difficult to wash off, and Index, who was fighting with the sticky porridge with tears in his eyes, heard the knock on the door, and turned their heads to look at the door together.

"Is it Xiaomeng?"

"...Hey, don't worry about that, you still haven't apologized to me?"

Although the porridge had already cooled down, so Kamijou was not burned, but Kamijou, who thought the porridge would be hot, was so scared that he lost consciousness the moment the carbohydrate touched his face.

At this moment, the voice of "Huh? What are you doing at my door?" came from outside the door.It seems that Teacher Xiaomeng, who was going out, just came back at this time and saw the person who was knocking on the door.

So who was it that knocked on the door?Kamijou tilted his head in thought.

"Kamijou, these two seem to be your guests?"

With a click, the door was opened.

Kamijou's shoulders trembled.

Behind Teacher Xiaomeng stood the two magicians who had met before.

Seeing that nothing had happened to Index sitting on the floor, the two seemed relieved.

Kamijou frowned suspiciously.Logically speaking, they should have come to recover Index.But this matter should have been done three days ago when Kamijou passed out.

Even if the "treatment" time was strictly limited, there was no reason why she should be left alone for these three days.The magicians could have imprisoned her until the casting time came.

A chill.Thinking of the flame and slashing power of these two people, Kamijou's muscles began to tense.

However, on the other hand, Kamijou lost the reason to be enemies with Stiyl and Kanzaki.After all, they are not "combatants of the evil magic association", but "friends of the church who came here to protect Index".

Kamijou was worried about Index's condition after all.In the end, Kamijou could only choose to help them, handing over Index to them and bringing them back to the church.

However, this is only Kamijou's unilateral position.

As far as these two mages were concerned, they didn't need Kamijou's help at all.To put it bluntly, they could even behead Kamijou on the spot and take Index away.The results will not be any different for them.

Looking at Kamijou whose whole body stiffened, Stiyl seemed very happy.

"Well, looking at your body, there should be no way to escape easily."

These words finally let Kamijou understand the intention of the "enemy".

If Index is alone, there is a way to escape from the magician.After all, she had escaped from the church alone for a whole year.Even if we forcefully arrest her and lock her up somewhere, maybe she can escape easily.If only she was alone.

There is not much time left until the final deadline.She has the ability to hide from the church for a year, if she starts to "flee" seriously at this time, the situation will be very difficult.

Even if locked up, she might escape.Even during the "ceremony", she may try to escape.

But if she was allowed to bring the "injured" Kamijou with her, the situation would be different.

That's why the mages deliberately didn't kill Kamijou, and let him return to Index.As long as Index doesn't abandon him, this is the best shackle.In order to "protect" Index reliably and safely, they had no choice but to carry out evil.
