I just want a normal life without powers

I looked at my bank card balance in thought.

The salary of working in the library for one month is actually equivalent to the money I earned working in the convenience store for more than half a year.

I didn't do anything except moving books for 3 or 4 hours a day, so Mr. Ango actually gave me a salary increase.

Although I don't understand why the books are messed up every day when there are not many customers in this library, but anyone can do such a thing as moving books?I think Mr. Odasaku can move books for an hour as much as I can for a day.

So why did Mr. Ango give me such a high hourly wage and give me a salary increase?

Libraries shouldn't use lolita to attract traffic like maid coffee shops, right?

Could it be that Mr. Ango is doing charity and wants to help me go to college?

Although no one will have trouble with money, I feel a little guilty about spending so much money on Mr. Ango for doing nothing.

At the end of the summer vacation, Mr. Ango gave me a watch as a thank you for saving him at the station that day.

Watches are an affordable luxury brand that is more popular among girls. They are not too expensive, but I would never buy them.

Because I am used to checking the time on my mobile phone.

But Mr. Anwu said that electronic products cannot be brought into the examination room during the entrance examination in the future. It is more convenient to have a mechanical watch to check the time.

I thought what he said was quite reasonable, so I accepted it.

To be honest, this is the first time I have received a gift from the opposite sex, and the color of the watch happens to be my favorite blue.

If it weren't for Mr. Anwu who has always been unsmiling and never saw anyone except for giving me the book list, I would have wondered if he had taken a fancy to me.Besides, Mr. Anwu and I haven't even exchanged line numbers. We usually use work emails to communicate with him...

So it's weird, really weird, I don't know what Mr. Ango wants to do.

I have no money, no breasts, and I look like an immature bean sprout, and I don't have any profitable interests in me.

I don't believe that there is such a wonderful ability like [Disqualification in the World] in this world.It is impossible for Mr. Anwu to have such a coincidence that he also has the memory of the time loop, and knows the specific situation of my ability.

Having a bandage genie is annoying enough.

Forget it, don't think about it if you don't understand it, you're not very smart, so don't waste your brain cells.

A weak social animal like Mr. Ango who sits in the office for a long time can't threaten me at all.

Mr. Ango should just be doing charity with a lot of money. That's right.

There are still many good people in this world.

I'm going to wear this watch to school and I still like the style of it.

I heard that Yanagiya Hair Tonic works well, and I will buy a few bottles tomorrow for Mr. Ango as a gift for his watch.

The school started, and when I just entered the classroom, I saw the class collapsed, and they all sighed. It seemed that they hadn't played enough during the summer vacation or hadn't finished their summer homework.

"Ahhh——Xia Xia, Xia Xia, let me refer to my English homework!" Hui Naiguo saw me as if he had seen a savior.

"Hurry up and write, Teacher Takahashi will be here in half an hour." I reluctantly took out my English homework from my schoolbag and handed it to her.Huinaiguo must have gone crazy during her summer vacation. Looking at the black and blue under her eyes, she knew that she must have stayed up all night to make up her homework last night.

"Thank you Xiaxia! I love you! I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow!" Hui Naiguo took the homework and started copying it hard.

After I sat down, I noticed that Yao, who was sitting on my right, was also writing something quickly.

No way, Ah Yao, a top student, didn't finish his summer homework?

Before I could ask, Ah Yao had already finished writing and handed the finished homework to Hui Naiguo.

"Here you go, Guoguo, I've finished writing it."

"Thank you, thank you! Ah Yao, you have been a great help! Xia Xia can help me get it, I am too busy with my English homework." Hui Naiguo said to me without raising her head.

I took the notebook in Ah Yao's hand without a word, flipped through it casually, and it turned out that it was written in Hui Naiguo's handwriting.

Hui Naiguo, you are really good at it, asking Ah Yao to help copy homework can actually make Ah Yao develop the unique skill of imitating other people's handwriting.

Hui Naiguo managed to finish all the homework before Teacher Takahashi came.

The deadline to catch up with homework is thrilling and exciting.

During the lunch break, I sat on the roof with a bento, Yao and Huinaguo to have lunch.

"So what on earth did you do this summer vacation? You left so much homework behind?" I felt a little strange. Normally speaking, no matter how crazy Huinaguo was, she wouldn't leave so much homework behind.

"Oh...don't mention it, I'm really unlucky this summer vacation." Huinaguo said vaguely while biting the rice ball, "After I got off the cruise ship with you, I planned to go to a more exciting place to play. It just so happened that the ghost club I joined had activities. , I went to Yayuan with our president."

Yahara?This place name is a bit familiar... By the way, the convenience store owner's hometown where I used to work is there.

"Ah? Yahara is far away from Yokohama. It takes a long time to fly by plane. What are you doing there?" Yao was curious.

"It's like this. Our president saw a post asking for help in the spiritual forum, saying that someone was hidden by the gods after visiting the shrine in Yayuan. The poster of the post went to the shrine with his friends. There were eight people in total. His All the friends disappeared after visiting the shrine. He was the only one left. The host was not hidden because he didn’t visit the shrine. He couldn’t get through to his friends’ mobile phones. Even their parents called the police and couldn’t find the missing seven children. The host When he posted this help post, his friend had been missing for almost two months. The president was very curious about it, so he took us to the shrine in Yahara.”

Hui Naiguo sighed at this point, "We were really unlucky. After we came to the shrine, we didn't even enter the shrine and didn't visit at all. We just took a few photos outside the torii gate. We were just curious It’s not stupid to come here for some excitement. No matter how hard you try to die, you won’t take the initiative to pay homage to trigger Shenyin. As a result, the five of us were pushed by something when we took pictures in front of the torii. After recovering, we The surrounding scene changed completely. The shrine worship hall suddenly appeared in front of us, the rope with the bell hanging on it was just above our heads, and we all bent down on the ground."

"After that, we found that no matter how we walked, we couldn't get out of the shrine. As soon as we saw the torii gate, we would be sent to the shrine. When searching for clues, we also saw seven people in uniform in the Kagura hall. The high school students are dancing the sacrificial dance...it should be those people who were hidden in the help post. No matter how we shouted, they didn't respond, they kept dancing, super weird."

"Oh my God, it's so scary..." Ayao didn't even eat the bento, and concentrated on listening to Huinaguo. "Then how did you get out?"

"It was an onmyoji called Chang Jingsi who took us out. It was the second day we were trapped, and that onmyoji suddenly appeared on the approach to the shrine. After seeing us, he directly took us and that The seven who were dancing all the time were rescued. The shrine that I couldn’t get out of no matter how I walked, I could go directly through the torii gate with that onmyoji. Speaking of which, it’s the first time I’ve seen an onmyoji. It turns out that modern times really Someone has this job! That onmyoji is super handsome, wearing a black bathrobe, he is a classical handsome man. It's a pity that his right eye seems to be injured and has been wrapped in cloth." Hui Naiguo said when talking about that onmyoji The face is a little red.

Well, it's Hui Naiguo's normal nympho state, in short, it's not the mafia, everything is fine.I silently put the rice in my mouth.

"After he took us out of the shrine, we found out that it had been a month since the outside world... Because the father of the president of our spiritual club had some friendship with the family of the onmyoji, so after the president disappeared, his father invited him to come. Mr. Jingji came to us." Hui Naiguo sighed again, "Oh, I was really unlucky. So now you know why I didn't finish my summer homework. After leaving the shrine, there is only one Last week, all five members of our Spiritual Club were tortured by that shrine."

I patted Hui Naiguo's shoulder comfortingly.

It's quite unlucky, it should be the same situation as the old man beating the drum I met at the station.It's just that I don't have a handsome Onmyoji hero to save the beauty, but rely on the hand speed I have trained as a taiko master for many years to solve the problem.

Originally, I thought that after I met the old man playing the drum at the station, I would go back to the daily life of seeing ghosts before I was 12 years old.

The result was not.

I still don't see them in my daily life.

Thank goodness, luckily not.

I'm miserable enough with one uncontrolled garbage ability.

"By the way, Xia Xia, aren't you going to join any clubs this semester?" Hui Naiguo asked me.

"I still have to work part-time to earn money, and I really don't have time to participate in club activities." I shook my head.

"Ah... Xia Xia really worked hard." Hui Naiguo reached out and hugged me. "But have you found a new part-time job recently? When I passed by the station last time, I found that the convenience store you used to work in was closed."

"Yeah, I found it. I work in a library. My new boss is very nice, and the salary is super high."

According to Mr. Ango's generous salary, it is estimated that I will soon be able to save enough for college tuition.

University tuition fees are really expensive. The registration fee + admission fee + tuition fee for the first year will cost about 85w for a common university, not to mention those more famous universities.And the dormitory is required for the first year, and the dormitory fee and living expenses are not counted...

Thanks again to Mr. Ango for his kindness. Without his help, I would be able to save enough tuition fees.

After returning home from school, I immediately found my diary and prepared to record today's itinerary.

Rather than a diary, this notebook is more like a surveillance record.

It is full of what time I did every day and who I met.

This is entirely the result of falling in love with my crap ability for so many years.

All to better find the dead and end the damn time loop.

Since I worked part-time in Mr. Ango's library, my social circle has become smaller.The dead in the last month were all coffee shop regulars I met while soliciting customers at the maid coffee shop.

The job in the maid coffee shop is quite easy, and I only need to hand out leaflets and hold a publicity board for a while, so I didn't quit my job.After all, if you can earn a little more when you have enough time, it is a little bit, and no one will make trouble with money.

It's kind of wrong to say that since I passed my 17th birthday, there have been more and more cases of uncontrolled triggering time loops every month.Originally, after I limited my social circle, under normal circumstances, the leakage of abilities was three or four times a month.But now five times a month is considered a small number, and the passive triggering of the monthly ability soared to ten times when Mr. Oda Saku died.

You must know that the time loop conditions for triggering the death revolving lantern are quite harsh. It must be the deceased who I know the name and appearance and have contact with me within three days before the death.

Are there really so many accidental deaths in Yokohama every month?It so happens that the dead are all people I know?

Wait, I suddenly remembered what Osamu Dazai said to me that night...

Am I actually using my powers to save others, or does my powers require people to keep dying?

Does my ability require someone else to die in order for me to continue using it?

The reason why those people died unexpectedly was entirely because of [my] ability?

……

I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach.

A little nauseous.

The author has something to say:

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————— ——

As mentioned in the last chapter, Ango shakes hands with Qianxia every time before moving a book. It is not Ango who Qianxia thinks is greeting her, but Ango who uses his ability to read the residual memory on the glove.

An Wu was afraid that Qian Xia would not be able to work every day after school started, and would no longer wear gloves with her, so I gave her a watch.Sending the watch has no other meaning, it is to know Qianxia's daily movements, to prevent the ability from getting out of control, etc. In short, it is all for the special ability department, and everything is for national security. Today's Anwu is also a qualified social animal.

————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Ango's salary is actually not much, because the hourly salary of working in a convenience store is very low, so it seems a bit exaggerated.I heard from a friend that the hourly salary of working in a convenience store in Japan is only 900 yen. After working hard for a month, I can only earn 5 yen. It is hard to pay the rent.The monthly salary of ministerial-level social animals is about 50w, and the annual salary plus bonus can reach 800w.
