Zongman started from grabbing girls with Wuhe Shidao

"But if you get hit too hard in front of him, it would be rude to him, so I decided to give you a little mental preparation first."

Boom.Index knocked on the door of the ward twice.

Just this kind of action alone made Index's heart burst with tension.Before the other party could respond, Index frantically wiped the sweat from her palms on the skirt of her nun uniform, and crossed herself on her chest by the way.

"Who?" A boy's voice came from inside.

Index was about to reach out and turn the doorknob, when she suddenly thought, if it asks "Who?", shouldn't I first ask "Can I go in?" and then open the door?But if I do this, if it makes him think that I am such a nonsense, why don't you come in quickly, what should I do?Index really felt scared.

Nervous, Index opened the door with a robot-like motion.This is not a ward for six people, but a single ward.

Because the walls, floor, and ceiling are all white, there is a gap in the sense of distance, so it feels very spacious.

The boy sat up on the pure white bed.

The window beside the bed was open, and the pure white curtains swayed in the wind.

He is still alive.

This incident alone moved Index to tears.Index began to worry, should she rush into his arms first, or should she bite his head first to punish him for doing such a reckless thing.

"Excuse me..." The boy with a bandage on his head tilted his head slightly and spoke.

"Did you go to the wrong ward?"

The young man's voice was so polite and full of confusion, it was a sound of probing the other party's details.

It's almost like the tone you would use when calling someone you never knew.

──His condition is not so much memory loss as memory destruction.

What the doctor said in the consulting room just now came to Index's mind.The words that made Index feel cold even though it was summer.

──He didn't "forget" the memories, but the brain cells were physically "destroyed".In that case, it should be impossible to restore the memory.Did you open his skull and insert an electric shock baton?

"...!"

Index stopped breathing slightly, only dared to look down at the floor.

The reaction of the superpower user using too many superpowers, as well as the light attack released by Index herself (although she didn't realize it herself), deeply hurt the boy's brain.

If it was a general physical one—that is, an ordinary "injury", like when Index was slashed on the back, it might be possible to heal the wound with recovery magic.However, the boy with an empty expression in front of him has a right hand called "Fantasy Killer".No matter good or evil, good or bad, as long as it is magic, it will be erased.

In other words, the recovery magic used to heal the boy will also be eliminated.

The conclusion is: this boy is physically fine, but his heart is dead.It's that simple.

"Excuse me..." The voice from the boy's mouth was a little uneasy... No, it should be said to be worried.

For some reason, Index couldn't bear such a voice, and said it from the boy with an empty expression in front of her.

He was hurt for me.But now he is worried about me instead.How embarrassing is this?

Index took a breath, as if trying to repress the emotion welling up in her chest.

I should be laughing right now?Index thought.

The boy's expression was so empty that he seemed to have no memory of Index at all.

"Excuse me...are you okay? You look...like sad..."

However, what was thought to be a perfect smile was immediately seen through by the young man with an empty expression.Thinking back carefully, this boy always seemed to be able to see his emotions hidden behind his smile.

"Well, I'm fine." Index said while exhaling, "Of course I'm fine."

The boy with an empty expression looked at Index's face, and said after a while:

"...May I ask...we...did we know each other at first?"

Such questions made Index feel sad the most.

This is tantamount to proving that the young man with an empty expression in front of him doesn't recognize himself at all.

completely.It's really all.

"Hmm..." Index answered him standing alone in the middle of the ward.The action looks like the elementary school student who forgot to do his homework in the comics and was called to stand in the corridor as punishment.

"Touma! Don't you remember? We met on the balcony of the student dormitory!"

"Have I ever lived in a student dormitory?"

"... Touma! Don't you remember? Your right hand broke my 'Mobile Church'!"

"Mobile Church...Mobile Church...'Athletic Association' {Note: "Mobile Church" and "Athletic Association" are pronounced similarly in Japanese}? Sounds like a fitness center."

"...Touma! Don't you remember? You fought the magician for me!"

"Who is Toma?"

......

Index hardly dared to ask any more questions.

"Touma! Don't you remember?"

But even so, this sentence must be said.

"Index... I like Tomo the most!"

"I'm sorry..." The boy with an empty expression said:

"Index... doesn't sound like a human name. Have I ever had a cat or a dog?"

An urge to cry surged up in Index's chest.

However, Index restrained herself and swallowed all her emotions back.

She suppressed her emotions and smiled.Although, this smile is still far from a perfect smile.At best, it can only be regarded as a very sad smile.

"I lied to you! You have been fooled! Wahahahahaha!"

"Huh...?" Index froze.

The young boy with a hollow expression completely disappeared with an uneasy expression, as if he had changed his face into a smirking expression with canine teeth.

"Why are you so moved when I say you are a cat or a dog? Are you a masochist? You don't like wearing collars very much, do you? Hey, I don't want to be arrested at this age for kidnapping and imprisoning girls. !"

The young boy with a blank expression had taken on a mischievous tinge.
