"Why are you so tall! Bend down a little, hurry up!"
"I'm an older man than you anyway. It would be really amazing if I were as tall as you."
He is not angry with Xingzi's behavior that can be called neither big nor small, but in fact, in Zheng Yi's opinion, the girl's bluffing appearance is much better than the serious one just now.On the one hand, Zheng Yi himself is actually not much older than the children. Although he is a teacher, apart from his responsibilities and bottom line as a teacher, Zheng Yi has never had such a thing as "elderly airs".
on the other hand……
Not everyone is qualified to make Sakura Kyoko willing to go, big or small.
"Don't talk nonsense! You feel it too? If you cause the prey to be snatched by Mami and the others, you will pay me?! Hurry up!"
Angrily, she tapped Zheng Yi's chest lightly, and Xingzi took advantage of the situation and tugged at his collar.
"Good good..."
Zheng Yi obediently followed the girl's little strength and bent down: "What are we going to do? Compared to this, we should hurry up and get rid of the witch—"
As a result, before he could finish speaking, the girl blocked his mouth in a careful yet quick way.
The sweet taste spreading from the tip of his tongue made Zheng Yi blink subconsciously. Of course he saw the girl stuffing something into his mouth, and it was precisely because of this that he didn't stop the girl from making her seemingly rude but unexpectedly considerate actions, and let the other party do it. for.
Staring at Zheng Yi's doubtful eyes, the girl let go of her hand and took a half step back, opening the distance between herself and Zheng Yi again.
"Listen well, I will store that answer with you for the time being, Kongtiao Zhengyi."
Speaking Ling Ran's words like an afternoon book, the girl acted more like she had made an appointment with the big brother next door to go to the fireworks festival this year.At least Zheng Yi didn't see too much coercion from that lovely face, on the contrary, he could feel a little worry about gain and loss and a little leeway to relax.
"You are not allowed to follow me, and you are not allowed to intervene in my battle. Next time we meet, I will get back the answer I deposited from you."
On the deserted street, the figure of Kyoko running away skipped the corner and disappeared into Zheng Yi's eyes.Apart from the sound of footsteps that were quickly leaving in my ears, only the words that the girl said were still echoing in my mind.
Raising his hand to take down the lollipop stuffed into his mouth by the girl, Zheng Yi turned the paper stick, staring at the crystal clear dark red candy, as if he was thinking about something.
But this thought did not last long.
Because in essence, Zheng Yi is actually a person whose body starts to move before his head, in other words...
Sakura Kyoko and Zheng Yi are essentially similar people to a certain extent.
The difference is that the two are now on different paths because of their own ideas.
"Did that kid like apples?"
Holding the apple-flavored lollipop again, Zheng Yi took another step forward. This time, the man did not walk forward leisurely and leisurely like usual, but ran forward with big strides.Different from the leisurely time when returning home on weekdays, the brisk walking man came to the corner of the street almost in the blink of an eye.
——Then, Zheng Yi changed direction.
Carrying the bag and walking in the direction of the girl's footsteps without looking back, Zheng Yi gradually deviated from the way home, but sped towards a direction he didn't even know where he was going.
Although in a human posture, he can't judge the specific location of the witch through fluctuations like the magical girls, but if he only relies on hearing and smell to chase a girl who is less than a few hundred meters away, it is relatively handy.
Of course, this is also based on the fact that the children have little anti-reconnaissance experience.
As magical girls, they can rely on the equally excellent five senses and perception of magic to deal with the tailing of the same magical girl or witch.But when facing Zheng Yi, who has no magical power at all, he is much inferior in terms of the gap in the level of five senses when he is not transformed, or in the experience of chasing battles.
So for Kyoko, she didn't know that the man she had just told her not to follow a few minutes ago was chasing after her without even thinking about it.
If it was Kyoko after transformation, she would naturally be able to get rid of Zheng Yi who was still in a human form.But whether it is Zheng Yi or Xingzi, the transformation needs to be carried out in an unobtrusive place.And unlike Zheng Yi, the transformation of the magical girl will accelerate the pollution of the soul gem.For Kyoko, since she is not yet sure about the extent of the battle she will face, of course she will not do this reckless act of wasting her own strength.
Back and forth, the man and the girl passed through the crowds and streets one after the other, running towards the position of the incoming enemy.
PS:
It is expressly forbidden to shoot JC!
Do you think this sweetness is a girl's kiss?
In fact, it is a quinolin (apple) fruit (fruit) lollipop!
The second is more old-fashioned

Chapter 71: Empty justice is the most capricious person
Is it here?
Staring at the [egg] that can only be seen by the magic holder, Kyoko narrowed her eyes slightly and took out the soul gem hanging around her neck.
It looks like no one is fighting inside yet...
"Huh? No, it's—"
normal person?
Across the barrier of the magic barrier, normally speaking, with Kyoko's preference for fighting rather than supporting magical girls, at best, she could barely detect whether there was a battle inside and which side was more favorable.It is quite rare to be able to judge whether there are ordinary people inside through the diaphragm constructed by magic like this.
As for the fact that the number of people who can judge the average person is not small, it is basically a fantasy.
"whispering sound."
The hand holding the soul gem was slightly loosened, and Kyoko stood on the ruined wall of this unfinished project, looking at the witch barrier below with a somewhat tangled expression.
In such a remote place with few people, suddenly there are multiple ordinary people wrapped in the enchantment of the witch, and I can judge this situation by myself.
- No matter how you look at it, it looks like a trap.
But the question is, what is the purpose of this trap?Is this witch herself possessing the special ability to lure magical girls, or...
For Kyoko, there are actually two possibilities.
Magical girls rely on the seed of lament to purify soul gems, and witches also rely on preying on humans to become stronger. Therefore, compared to weak ordinary humans, if they can successfully eat and absorb magical girls, it is obviously a faster and more effective hunting option.But the relative risk is also greater. No matter what kind of ability a magical girl possesses, the power she possesses cannot be underestimated.Compared with preying on magical girls, which might capsize the ship in the gutter, it is safer to hunt ordinary humans and rely on quantity to make up quality.
After all, in front of witches and familiars, ordinary people are useless even with heavy firepower, and they have no ability to resist.
Even so, witches who specialize in hunting magical girls are not non-existent.The direct status of magical girls and witches is always distinguished by the strength and weakness of individuals encountered.
So, it's not impossible.
As for Kyoko's other conjecture...
She believed in Mami, no matter how long it took for that girl, she would not be able to become an unscrupulous person.
But Kyoko doesn't trust Akami Homura.
The more she fights and the more she is alone, the more ugliness Kyoko faces.Loneliness not only drives away the little happiness left in the girl's life, but also keeps causing more and more ugliness.
Happiness that cannot be shared with others can only be the happiness of one person. This kind of happiness cannot last long and will be worn away by time one day.
But the pain that cannot be shared with others will always be the pain that only belongs to you.
This kind of pain is hard to erase even with time, like an ugly imprint engraved on the soul, if you try to erase it, you can only get rid of that whole piece of the past together.But if that's the case, it will only make the wound on the soul bigger and bigger.
So, just try to fill it up.
But it is difficult for one person to fill that gap.
——Because you were not the one who dug up this scar in the first place.
So even if you can fill in the parts that belong to you, you can't fill in the parts that belong to others.
Therefore, Kyoko can't trust Akami Homura who should be an "enemy" in her position.
In other words, in this city, until now she can trust, there are only two people.
Well, just wait.
Sitting down on the spot, Xingzi took out a delicious bar from her pocket, and directly tore open the packaging bag with her sharp little canine teeth.
She was prepared to wait and see.
This witch didn't restrain her fluctuations at all. In Kyoko's view, even if she didn't do it herself, Mami and Akami Homura would definitely deal with this guy.At that time, when it is found that there are ordinary people inside, let alone the newcomers, even if Mami is a little confused, she will definitely choose to go in to save people in the end.
At that time, whether it is this witch's new trick or that new trick, it will be self-defeating.
Leisurely shaking the slender legs exposed under the hot pants, although Kyoko seemed to relax, her attention was still on the witch's barrier below.
From a tactical perspective, this approach of waiting for work at leisure is indeed the most suitable for the status quo.
The only price to pay is the [possible ordinary people] in this enchantment.
It's a pretty good deal.
The lives of completely irrelevant people, and the safety of herself and her former friends, such multiple-choice questions are not even necessary for Kyoko to answer.
The power of being a magical girl belongs to Kyoko, so saving people is a choice only Kyoko can make.
There is nothing wrong with this in itself.
It's not that having power means you have to bear something. Those who have power also have the power to choose, because from the moment they have power, they are destined to pay a corresponding or even more price for power.
However, people are responsible for their own choices.Whether it is strong or weak, it has nothing to do with whether it has power or not. This is a rule that everyone must abide by.
Kyoko chose to use this power only for herself, so she has to shoulder the responsibility called "solitude" for her choice.
On a personal level, this may not be called a wrong approach.
Because Kyoko is already constantly paying the price for her choices and shouldering the corresponding responsibilities.
but…..
"That's why I said, I have seriously considered it, Sakura Kyoko."
The man's voice made Kyoko's body completely stiff.
Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of anger and disbelief——
She turned her head sharply.
-Dividing line-
Why are there so many abandoned projects in Mitakihara City?
Following the girl all the way to this abandoned construction site, Zheng Yi really couldn't figure it out.To be honest, during his life in this city, except for those few incidents, almost all the battles were in this abandoned construction site.The scene of the construction site that frequently appeared as a battle scene made Zheng Yi feel like [Are all of you witches from the production team of Aunt Dong? ] The illusion.
Anyway, just a few battle scenes.
Being so close, even without transforming, Zheng Yi can already feel the strangeness of being so close to the Witch's Barrier.Originally, he planned to follow up after the girl transformed into the barrier, so that while protecting the girl, he might be able to avoid possible fights between himself and the girl to a certain extent.
But when he saw Xingzi sitting down in place, Zheng Yi realized something.
For Sakura Kyoko, power is something driven only for herself.
Originally anxious, she suddenly sat down and waited like this. She might have discovered something was wrong, so she decided to wait and see what happened, and wait for Mami and Homura to deal with it first.
