Bald cape conjurer

In the middle of the night, under the ruins in the center of Xiaozhi Shopping Street, there was a slight noise.

Fragments of masonry on the top of the ruins rustled down, and then large pieces of concrete were pushed away from the inside by a force.A blood man pushed away half of the shattered table and stood up from the ruins.

The blood surging from the blood man's body quickly and slowly slid down, revealing a swollen figure protected by the blood.

When being attacked by Saitama, Baoxiang used the red blood manipulation technique Bailian in time to form a protective film made of blood, which withstood the impact of the entire dessert shop that Saitama smashed down.But even so, the human body after incarnation is also unable to fight due to injuries and excessive blood loss.

The bloated complexion became paler due to blood loss, which made the blue-black under his eyelids more obvious.Standing in the ruins, he meditated and uttered a few syllables in a low voice.

"Saitama..."

Suddenly, the brows of the bulging phase who was in deep thought twitched slightly.

There is a powerful spell coming this way.Probably the conjurer who came to clean up after getting the news. ——Maybe it will be Gojo Satoru.

I have no intention of fighting Gojo Satoru.

Thinking of this, Bao Xiang stepped out of the ruins, and his figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.

The shopping street returned to a dead silence.However, a moment later, two figures appeared at the entrance of the street.

The blindfolded silver-haired man put one hand in the pocket of his uniform, and the other grabbed Yiji Jiedao's shoulder.He stood at the intersection of the street and was silent for a moment: "He ran away."

"Yes, I'm sorry." Yidichi Jiegao whispered, "Because I couldn't make a phone call during the battle...Although you rushed over with a spell, you still..."

"It's not your fault either."

Gojo Gojo stepped towards the ruins in the shopping street, and stopped after feeling the taint of the spell.

"In short, first record the filthy information and sort it out." He said, "If you can use this to track down and get some enemy intelligence, that would be great."

"Eh——The Xiaozhi Shopping Street is closed for two weeks because of renovation? Is it true?"

In the first-grade classroom of the junior high school, Nagasaki Yeqiangwei looked at the push message on the mobile phone, and couldn't help being taken aback. The voice was so loud that everyone was shocked.

"Kagizaki, you have such a loud voice..." Hirohito Kojou touched the broken hair on the back of his head, and asked puzzledly, "The shopping street is closed, so you don't have to be so excited, right?"

"What do you know..." The mobile phone in Nagasaki Ye Qiangwei's hand slid down to the table with a "click" along her fingers, and she fell listlessly onto the table.

"Recently, a dessert shop in Koeda Shopping Street released a cake monster key chain that comes with certain products. It is very popular among female high school students. Many girls ask their boyfriends to buy it for themselves, and then hang it on their own. On the bag, I took a photo and sent it a s, with words like 'I just casually mentioned that I like this doll, but the next day my boyfriend gave me [heart]'." She complained loudly.

"So..." Hirohito Kiwi carefully understood, "Nagizaki, do you... want a boyfriend?"

"Fart!" Nagasaki Wild Rose suddenly raised her hair and said vulgar words, "I would rather be single without a suitable person, this beautiful girl is not something that anyone can climb up to! After all, I didn't intend to be like those girls Let my boyfriend buy it, and I can buy ten or eight of them myself!"

"But just when I planned to go shopping, Xiaozhi Shopping Street was going to be closed for renovation..." She buried her head in her arms again, and said sullenly, "Actually, it's because the cake monster keychain is really It's cute, and I want it too."

"..."

"Ah! After all, why did the Koeda shopping street suddenly renovate? Damn it!" Nagasaki Haruka slammed the table hard.

"..."

In the silence, Saitama turned his head and looked out the window, his bare head was sweating.

He vaguely recalled last night when he was fighting the bulging statue, the dessert shop he moved to, there seemed to be a promotional picture of cake dolls pasted on the door...

"By the way, Teacher Saitama." At this time, Genos suddenly asked blankly, "Didn't Teacher perform a mission near the Xiaozhi Shopping Street yesterday? Do you know anything?"

Saitama turned around with a "swipe", and pressed Genos' mouth, sweating profusely: "Genos, why are you talking so loudly!"

Genos was caught off guard by Saitama covering his mouth, and struggled a few times with a puzzled face.And Saitama kept covering Genos's mouth, and carefully slipped his eyes aside.

——Kagizaki Yamei sat up straight at some point, and turned her head to look at him expressionlessly.

Saitama's sweat became more and more intense: "..."

"I knew it was you..." Nagasaki Wild Rose said in a low voice, like the whisper of a devil, "Saitama, look at your wandering eyes and guilty attitude... You must have ruined the shops in Koeda Shopping Street! After all, when you went down with your fist, the dormitory building of the Youth Court collapsed!"

"...I'm sorry." Saitama recalled the scene when he dug up the dessert shop and threw it at the bloated phase, and said guiltily.

"Ah, I can't take it anymore, I quit!"

Nagasaki Bakami hung her head, pushed the table away abruptly, and stood up.

Under everyone's terrified gazes, she took a deep breath, slowly raised her head, and her gaze instantly became firm.

"I can't bear it anymore, I'm going to Ginza to do some shopping today! Relieve the stress!"

"Eh?" Knotabagi Yuhito was taken aback, "It turned out that this is your final decision?"

……

Three in the afternoon.

Within half an hour, the low-level magic spirits of the afternoon field trip course were eliminated, and another half hour was spent changing into Tokyo women's unique fashion clothes, and a cute Mickey head was tied. Nagasaki Araki came to Ginza with a small bag on her back, and started some shopping .

Ginza is crowded with people in the afternoon, and the visual effect has already increased the power of the late summer heat wave.All kinds of shop doors on both sides of the street spit out a refreshing air-conditioning that can soothe people's restlessness, but it still only covers three parts of the doorway.The asphalt road looks like it is about to be baked by the sun.

"It really makes people feel uncomfortable..." Nagasaki Yaqiangwei held a shopping bag in one hand and fanned the wind with the other hand, and said to herself, "It's so hot, and because it's too hot, I feel that the negative emotions around It's becoming scary... Maybe the curse will come out."

……

At the end of the hot road, the ground rippled like water.A withered right hand covered in asphalt slowly floated up from the ground, its fingers bent, and it grabbed onto the ground.

First the right hand, then the left hand, then the head, neck, shoulders, torso... A grotesque humanoid asphalt monster climbed out of the ground, crawling slowly on the ground with its waist bowed.Its eyes were only sunken eye sockets, its lips were sewn shut, and its facial features were bubbling hot asphalt.

The asphalt monster lay quietly on the ground, its empty eyes aimed at the passers-by on the street.However, pedestrians turned a blind eye to it, talking and laughing with each other, or passing by it expressionlessly.

A man in shorts walks past the Pitch Monster while talking on the phone, and his calf brushes against the Pitch Monster's shoulder, getting a small patch of pitch.

The asphalt monster turned his head slightly and looked at the man in shorts, but the man in shorts continued walking forward without knowing it.

"Damn it, it will take another week for the part-time salary to be paid, but the money has already been spent!" As he walked forward, he said bitterly to the person on the other end of the phone, "I mentioned in the morning that the salary will be paid in advance. The request, the manager of the Mediterranean store actually vetoed it, it's really abominable..."

"Hiss..." The man in shorts suddenly took a breath when he said this, "I suddenly felt something wrong with my leg..."

While talking, the man looked down at his calf.

With a "click", his phone fell to the ground.

"what--"

The man's sudden, loud screams resounded through the entire street.The surrounding pedestrians were attracted by the screams, and dozens of hundreds of people saw the man sitting on the ground at the same time, with his hands tightly pressing his calves.His face was contorted with pain and fear, tears streaming down the lines on his face.

"My leg!" he screamed. "My leg is burnt!"

The appearance of his calf was faintly exposed under the man's fingers—in a few seconds, his calf showed signs of corrosion and burns caused by chemical substances. When touched, large pieces of meat flake off.

There was a sudden commotion in the crowd.Some people called an ambulance, while others raised their mobile phones to take pictures and videos.The street was originally crowded with pedestrians, and it was even more crowded under the riots.As pedestrians pushed each other, a young brown-haired woman was slammed by the people around her, lost her balance, and fell straight towards the asphalt monster.

The long brown hair was raised high, and the face of the young woman was full of consternation and panic.And the asphalt monster raised its head as if aware of something, grinned open its mouth sewn up with thread, and aimed its empty eyes at the slender body of the brown-haired woman.

At this critical moment, a hand suddenly grabbed the arm of the brown-haired woman.

"Dangerous, get behind me!"

With a little force, Nagasaki Yarose pulled the brown-haired young woman behind her.The shopping bags she had been carrying in her arms were scattered all over the floor, and some of them were even stepped on in the crowd, but she didn't have time to pay attention to them.

Nagasaki Wild Rose took a stride, and what was reflected in the orange pupils was the shadow of the asphalt monster with its teeth and claws.

——A monster in the shape of asphalt, which can cause severe burns when it touches people, probably a curse born of the terrible fantasy of the pedestrians on the street about the asphalt road melting;

——The magic power is not very strong, at best it is only level three... no problem at all!

Nagasaki Haruka took out the hammer and nails she hid there from the hidden pocket on her lower back.And at this moment, the asphalt curse waved its arms, and a piece of asphalt emitting white smoke overwhelmingly attacked the wild rose Nagasaki!

Behind him was the woman who almost fell on the curse just now, Nagasaki Wild Rose could not dodge, she had to stand in front of innocent people.Before it was too late, she kicked the kanban of the shop next door to her face as a shield to resist the attack of the asphalt curse.

Only two "slaps" were heard, and the asphalt thrown out by the curse slapped heavily on the surface of the signboard.At the same time, Nagasaki Wild Rose suddenly raised her hand and threw the spike in her hand.

The bright nail was lifted up by the swaying mantra and stayed in the air, with the tip of the nail pointed at the signboard ahead.The power of the hammer, which has been decorated with rhinestones since it went to Beijing, has not been weakened by the change in appearance.

The orange-haired girl took a deep breath, took out a scarecrow with one hand, and raised the hammer high with the other. The spell in her hand was like a burning flame.

"Crafting spell!"

The scarecrow was slammed onto the kanban, corresponding to the position where the asphalt was sprayed on the front and back of the kanban.In the next moment, Nagasaki Wild Rose's eyes froze, and she swung the hammer fiercely, hitting the nail hard into the scarecrow's chest.

The spike pierced through the scarecrow in an instant, and the tip of the nail shattered the thick signboard with a huge force, piercing through the asphalt on the other side, and a star of cold light emerged from it.

Almost immediately, the Curse of Pitch pulled the seamed mouth so hard that the jaw almost dislocated.A large amount of pitch spewed out from its eye sockets, nostrils and mouth, like a gray tide.

However, the ejected asphalt was still in the air, disappearing together with the curse itself.

The man whose calf was burned by the curse of asphalt was still rolling around holding his leg, but the wound on his leg had stopped spreading.When the spell power disappears along with the curse, the wounds that have been caused are just ordinary wounds.

Seeing this, Nagasaki Wild Rose finally breathed a sigh of relief, straightened up, and lowered her hand holding the hammer head.

Losing the support of Nagizaki's mantra, the signboard that had been pierced by the nail fell to the ground with a "snap", and the sound finally brought Nagizaki back to his senses.

In the next second, she looked around and her body froze.

"..."

I saw Nagasaki wild rose surrounded by curious passers-by, some were staring at her up and down, and some were whispering and whispering at a volume she couldn't hear.

——That's right, ordinary people can't see the curse.That is to say, what those passers-by saw just now was that she suddenly kicked up a store signboard, and then used a hammer to nail the scarecrow on the signboard...

Nagasaki's ears suddenly felt hot.But she didn't run away shyly, but put her hands on her hips and yelled angrily: "What are you looking at, have you never seen a beautiful girl? Have you seen enough? If you have seen enough, disband immediately!"

"..."

Passers-by gradually dispersed.After Kizaki Yamei pulled out the nails and put away the hammer, nails, and scarecrow, she suddenly remembered the shopping bag she had thrown aside in a hurry.

Her eyes widened suddenly: "Ah... Oh no!"

Nagasaki Yamei wanted to go back to look for the shopping bag, but when she turned around, she suddenly met a worried face.

The brown-haired young woman who was pulled behind by Nagasaki Yeqiang just now was holding the shopping bag she threw on the ground, and asked softly: "Well, thank you for pulling me just now, otherwise I would have I fell... this is something you bought..."

The voice of the brown-haired young woman suddenly stopped.She stared at Nagasaki Wild Rose for a few seconds, and suddenly exclaimed in a volume that was very different from the soft voice just now: "Wait a minute... is that you? Is it Wild Rose?"

"Eh?"

The hand of Kitazaki Haruka to pick up the shopping bag stayed in mid-air.She looked up at the other person's face, her eyes suddenly widened in disbelief: "Saori-chan?"

……

Ten minutes later, in a nearby coffee shop, the two sat face to face at a small table.

"That..." Saori held the coffee in front of her and said with some embarrassment, "Wild Rose, you have been staring at me without saying a word for 5 minutes."

"Ah, I'm sorry!" Wild Rose Nagasaki suddenly recovered, "I accidentally stared at Saori-chan in a daze..."

While speaking, Nagasaki Yaqiangwei accidentally bumped into the table, and the coffee cup on the table collided with the porcelain plate, making a "ding" sound.On the snack plate in the center of the table, multicolored macaroons arranged in a pyramid shape dangled and fell down.

"Ah..." Nagasaki Wild Rose stretched out her hand towards Macaron, but she didn't know what to do, so her hand stopped in the air.

Silence lasted for a moment.

"Well... Do the math, we haven't seen each other for almost ten years." Saori said softly, staring down at the macarons on the plate.

After the original glamorous macaron tower fell, the layers of regular colors became chaotic, even a bit embarrassed, just like Saori's current mood.

Saori walked through this street after get off work.After a day's work, her original delicate makeup has fallen off, and her perfectly curled hair in the morning is no longer perfect.Especially some time ago because of working overtime for several days in a row, her face still had acne that had not completely subsided, and there were dark circles under her eyelids...

Kizaki Wild Rose is now a beautiful teenage girl, with fashionable hair dyed, cute Mickey head tied up, wearing clothes worn by models in fashion magazines, she looks energetic, and she is already in the same age as her. Big city girls are no different.

Saori rubbed her fingers under the table nervously, thinking to herself, what to do, when she was in the country with a swollen face, she pretended to be delicate, and said a lot of exaggerated things to Nagasaki Wild Rose.Seeing me now, she must be disillusioned...

——Since this is the case, before being said something, you might as well bring up the topic and laugh at yourself, so that you can reduce some embarrassment!

Thinking of this, Saori took a deep breath and opened her mouth.

"I'm sorry, Wild Rose," she said, "you may be disappointed to see how ordinary I am now..."

"I'm sorry! I was in a daze just now because I was thinking, even though we haven't seen each other for so long, Saori-chan is still so shiny!"

At the same time that Saori spoke, Nagasaki Wild Rose suddenly said loudly at the same time, her voice completely suppressing Saori's words.

"...Huh?" Saori opened her eyes slightly, her face full of bewilderment.

isn't it?

"Saori-chan, it's great to meet you by chance today!" Nagasaki Yarose put her hands on the table and said solemnly, "Ever since you moved, I've always wanted to see you again. It's just At that time, your family was completely disappointed with those guys in the village and changed all contact information. I don’t know anything about you except that your family moved to Tokyo.”

"I've always wanted to find you and tell you personally: Saori-chan, I'm here. I've also come to Tokyo where you live."

Nagasaki Wild Rose leaned forward slightly, her tone became more and more urgent.And Saori sat there in a daze, her ears turning red.

"Tokyo is really a bustling and modern city, just like Saori-chan you told me before!" Nagasaki Yarose became more and more excited as she spoke, "There are many things I like here, including delicious desserts and fashion. There are Sky Tree and Odaiba, there is Tokyo Disney, no one will meddle in whatever clothes you wear on the road, it is completely different from that smelly country!"

"I like Tokyo so much! I also like the free, fashionable and beautiful me who is staying in Tokyo now!"

"If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't have come to Tokyo, and I wouldn't have become who I am now."

Nagasaki Wild Rose took a deep breath and said loudly, "Saori-chan, thank you! Also... I like you very much too!"

Saori stared blankly at Nagasaki Wild Rose, and after a while, she suddenly blushed and laughed.

"Thank you, I'm so happy... I also like Wild Rose very much!"

Nagasaki Wild Rose couldn't help showing a smile.She stood up and no longer sat opposite Saori, but sat down next to Saori.

Time seems to go back in an instant to a certain day ten years ago.That day, in the only decent house in the small village in the countryside, Sazhi, a second grader in junior high school, and Xiaoye Qiangwei, a junior high school student, were sitting at the table, drinking hot black tea like adults, and bragging about the recipe the night before eating Sazhi. Macaron, looking at the snowflakes falling outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

"It's been a long time, I have a lot of things I want to talk to Saori-chan!"

"Ok!"

"By the way, what is Saori-chan doing in Tokyo now? Is she still in school, or already employed?"

"I'm already employed. I've been working for a year, and I'm currently a proofreader in the editorial department. Where's Briar? You must be studying high school in Tokyo right now?"

"About this matter, I have a secret to tell Saori-chan... only you!"

"Hey, what is it?"

"Actually, what I'm doing now is saving lives."

"real or fake?"

"Of course it's true. It's a long story. In short, the school I'm studying now is 'Sorcerer High School'..."

Nagasaki Wild Rose babbled a lot of things related to the conjurer, and then stared nervously at Saori, lest she would not believe it.

After all, such things as curses and conjurers are too bizarre, and ordinary people will only listen to them as urban legends on the same level as aliens, and even feel that there is something wrong with people who take such content as facts.

"Well, I understand." Saori nodded seriously, "Wilder Rose is trying to grow into a person who can fight the curse on her own, isn't she?"

"Yes, yes!" Nagasaki Wild Rose let out a sigh of relief, and nodded quickly, "I thought you wouldn't believe it!"

Saori hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "Actually... I can also see the curse."

"Eh?" Nagasaki Wild Rose was stunned in disbelief, "...is it a lie?"

"No, I can really see it. I also saw the asphalt-shaped curse that Wild Rose defeated just now." Saori patted her chest and said with lingering fear, "The crowd was too dense at that time, and I was squeezed near the curse I only found it when I was there, but when I wanted to get away from it, I was bumped into it and almost bumped into it. Fortunately, there is a wild rose."

"..."

"Actually, I have also had the experience of being cursed in the past."

Saori sighed and slowly talked about her past experience.

"About a year and a half ago, I was about to graduate from university and was in the job hunting season. Every day I went to various company promotional meetings and students' private life information exchange meetings. But I couldn't find a job. "

"It may be because the people I came into contact with were all graduates who were anxious about the future. Just like what Wild Rose said, the accumulation of negative emotions turned into a curse, and that curse targeted me."

"No matter where I go, the curse follows me like a shadow, and as time goes by, it gets closer and closer to me. At that time, I didn't know there was a magician, so I was scared to death, and I didn't dare to stay alone somewhere, but was cornered by the curse and entered an area called 'Ghost Town'..."

"Ghost town?" Nagasaki Ye Qiangwei couldn't help being taken aback, a guess that she didn't want to admit gradually appeared in her mind.

"Yes, it's a ghost town. I met a bald hero there."

Saori recalled the scene at that time, her hands subconsciously clenched in front of her chest, her eyes sparkled: "That man is really powerful, he smashed the curse following me with one punch!"

Nagasaki Wild Rose: "..."
