Temple and special horse racing skills

Shir walks the streets of Sapporo.

The nearby elementary school was conducting vision tests on the students. He saw a conjurer in a white coat dressed as a doctor walking into the classroom with a teeny head in a cage, and then there was the sound of the teacher's roll call.

A new medical advertisement was played on the street screen in a loop - "If you find that you can see things that others can't, don't be fooled by others. This new neurological disease please see a doctor at xxxx hospital. The diagnosis and treatment fee is free... ..."

That man is changing the world.

He recognized this very clearly.

The sooner the conjurer is screened out from the crowd, the sooner he can be protected.Necessary knowledge is no longer confined to the hands of a small number of people, but is generously awarded to all who need to seize it.

After being late for three years, someone on Honshu Island finally realized the benefits of the Internet, and the magician's forum began to flourish.The main server of the forum is located in Sapporo, Hokkaido. The original two curse masters have now developed into a small group of five people. Some attempts on the general magic field forum.

Including but not limited to the exchange and trading of spell tools, warnings for the discovery of spell spirits, exchange of experience in operation of spells and spell power, etc.

At the time when the BBS forum was booming, they embarked on the first group of Shinkansen with rapid development in the information age.

Even Shi Er himself had an account registered in advance, and he was considered one of the veterans of the website—but he didn't use the Internet very much, and the account with administrator privileges had never been activated.

"And I'm not a magician."

Shir said at the time.

"Being able to see the curse spirit counts."

The staff who maintained the forum retorted: "Even if you can't see it, it's still counted as someone who can exorcise the curse spirit. Where did so many broken rules come from?"

He was born in the place with the most "rule-breaking", and the first half of his life was soaked in this kind of values. When the whole of Hokkaido was racing towards the new era with full horsepower, he seemed to be a person who could not keep up with the progress.It's just that there is always someone in charge of giving orders on weekdays, and they also say the same thing bluntly, completely covering up this difference in cognition.

This time, the destination was the third floor of an office, where there were several computers that were on. Shi Er knocked on the door, but there was no sound inside. He looked at him with his head.

"You are... oh! Mr. Scheer! Is it a message from Miss Wearing Mirror?"

The other party recognized him, and became enthusiastic all of a sudden: "Last time, we have almost completed the need to synchronize the records of the curse spirit exorcism to the Internet, and the next step is to let the auxiliary supervisors familiarize themselves with the system and cooperate with the input work... Are there any new changes?"

"This time it's a private matter."

Shi'er walked in, raised his legs and stepped over the densely packed basement lines on the ground: "I want you to find a few people based on the information you have collected now."

"Is it for... assassination?"

Everyone's expressions became serious, and the magician killer was famous. Although most of the time he was killing the curser, it would not affect the normal working people like them, but if the other party really came to the door like this, just saying anything would bring Great pressure.

"To avoid being assassinated."

Shi Er simply told them about his experiences in recent years. In fact, the main reason is the burden on Ah Jing's own body. .

Conjurer, curser, superpower, medical expert, whatever, no matter what method he intends to try.After hearing about his needs, these staff members were also willing to help, and even issued a commission in the official name of the Ainu Spell Alliance, saying that they would contact him as soon as there was a result.

As a result, not long after he walked out, he was stopped by a strange-looking person in an alley.

The other party has short white hair with a little red highlights on it, and is wearing a cassock, showing a meaningful smile at Shi Er.

"What do you want me for? Tell me quickly, I have something urgent."

Shi'er drew the Taidao from the mouth of the curse spirit, and held it in his hand, ready to fight.He has dealt with many magicians, and his intuition shows that the person in front of him is by no means an ordinary person.

The man smiled and cut straight to the point: "I heard that you are looking for a magician who can use the reversal technique, Mr. Chanyuan."

"you are?"

"I'm."

"Then show it?"

The other party didn't reply, just took out a dagger from his pocket, and slashed the back of his hand.Blood trickled down the cracks between the fingers, and within a few seconds, the crack disappeared on the spot at a speed visible to the naked eye.

If it is false, this is indeed a reversal spell that works on itself.

"So--"

"Don't worry, I probably know why you're here."

The man smiled: "You two are very famous, and I also know that the Dynagi mirrors of the past dynasties don't live very long. There is no problem in helping you, but there are conditions, and my conditions may not be so easy to achieve."

Shi Er frowned, waiting for the other party to continue speaking.

"Let me introduce myself. You can call me Limei. What you need to do is very simple. I hope you can help kill some magicians——if you succeed in all of them, I will use the reversal spell to treat that future vision. "

"Some?"

Shi Er caught the key word: "Isn't it a certain one?"

"This is not a price that can be solved by killing one or two people. We can establish a long-term cooperative relationship-you work for me, and I can treat your magician on a regular basis. In the future, the load on the brain will exist for a long time. , as long as the eyeballs are not directly removed, one or two treatments are nothing more than a temporary solution, not a permanent cure.”

"In life, there will always be some people who are annoying."

The other party spread his hands and said, "My position is inconvenient to make a move. If I have a handy knife, it would be perfect... How about it?"

The expression is disgusting.

The sound is also disgusting.

And said very nasty things.

He was quite used to this kind of thing in his life so far, but now that he heard a similar order again, he just felt sick to his stomach.Shi Er held the Taidao in his hand, pointed at the opponent with a cold light on the tip of the knife: "If you escape fast enough, maybe you can save your life."

"Oh, why are you so impatient? Maybe the timing of my appearance is not right. You should wait another year or two... One day you will want to contact me, and it will not be too late at that time."

The man had no fear at all, and disappeared in a sudden cold wind, as if the snow girl had melted on the perennial snow of Mount Fuji.

Shi'er stayed where he was, put the saber back into its sheath, and put his sword back into the curse spirit's mouth.He has never seen a conjurer with similar spells before. The other party's purpose is absolutely abnormal, and it contains obvious malice. If he was a teenager, he might agree without hesitation, but now, without going through Choosing to kill the conjurer will definitely disappoint Ah Jing.

Over the years, he has slaughtered quite a few curse masters, but more or less they have been backtracked—people who rely on the curse master profession to die at the hands of magician killers can be regarded as a worthy death.

The trip to Hokkaido was fruitless, and to his surprise, he actually received a contact from a Buddhist monk.

——Specifically, it was Zenin Naoya's contact.

The address was chosen in Kyoto, a place full of bad memories for him, but it was obviously Naoya's first choice.The other party specially booked a tea shop, and the money was generous and calm, sweeping away the old image of "being beaten all over the head by Wujo Wu".

The little devil who would step on the trap at the beginning has changed a lot, with hair dyed blonde, he looks like a villain in the country - but of course Shier will not say this idea, he leaned against the wall at the agreed place Standing: "What's the matter with Eldest Young Master coming to see me suddenly?"

"Mr. Shier!"

Being able to see each other, Naoya showed a very happy look: "I haven't contacted him after so many years away."

"..."

Why did he contact the son-in-law of the Chanyuan family: "Speak quickly if you have something to say."

"Pharmaceuticals to suppress spell power, and medicines to promote body recovery."

Naoya spread his hands, and there were a few small pills in his palm: "If you can continue to work for the Chanyuan family, I can provide these."

He looked very expectant: "Not bad? In this way, safety is guaranteed, and the guy's physical problems can be alleviated, just return to the previous state. Anyway, you are all married, and the child will become a magician, right?" ? Have you read it in advance, is there any spell?"

"..."

Shi Er looked at him: "Who told you to do this?"

"I thought of it myself!"

Naoya felt that she deserved a compliment: "This is a win-win situation, right? I also want to ask her when the pianist's apprentice will appear."

"...Do you think it would be a good choice for me to go back to the Chanyuan?"

"That group of people with unreasonable attitudes just beat them up."

Naoya finds it hard to understand: "The kind of people who don't understand Mr. Er, just use your strength to shut them up."

"...That's not the case."

Shi Er felt that it was difficult for him to explain the poor value values ​​of the Chanyuan family, and what was even worse, even after leaving there, he even vaguely recognized that conjurers were better than non-magic masters, and those with spells were better than those without spells. Logic like the law of the jungle.

However, in a short period of time, two forces have tried to win them over. Shi Er sneered in his heart. Before he left the Chanyuan home, he had never realized that he was so "popular".

He rejected Naoya's proposal, and the other party puffed up his face and seemed very dissatisfied, repeatedly emphasizing that it is better to be alive than to die like this. I have never seen her so ignorant of current affairs before, and not everyone in the family supports him—— It took a lot of effort to run out.

So Shier can only say that it doesn't work for him to make a decision on this kind of thing, and he has to listen to the other party's arrangements and opinions.

"What, it's obviously just a woman."

"Yes, so give up now."

"But it's very important to Mr. Shier, right? So it's better to be alive."

This made Shi Er a little surprised: "I didn't expect such words to come out of your mouth."

"Sou Ajino's music is very important to me, but for someone who doesn't like piano music, it's just one of countless background sounds, and it won't make any difference."

Naoya thought for a while: "It's the same reason. To Mr. Shi Er, that person's value is not limited to the ability to predict the future."

Shir was silent for a moment.

Although he had already made plans to retaliate against the other party, he really did not expect that Zenyuan Naoya would one day realize the importance of empathy——according to the consistent demeanor of this son-in-law, it is like the sun rising from the west.

He vaguely felt that something had changed. Although he couldn't judge what the "original world" should look like with his own eyesight, and what kind of end the boy in front of him would face, there was indeed some slight change taking place. It's like a new sprout growing in the wilderness.

In the end, he accepted the box of medicine—the price was staggeringly high, but considering Naoya's character, this was already an unprecedented big concession, and it was all for Shier's sake.

It was late at night when I got home.

A small light was turned on in the living room, and after the door was opened, the warm air immediately wiped away the night dew from her body.

"I'm home?"

"I am back."

"Welcome back."

"Why don't you go to rest at this time?"

The black cat stepped on his instep, intentional written all over his face.Shi Er took the curse spirit off his neck, hung it on the clothes rack in the entrance, and then went to the other person: "I brought the medicine back."

Ah Jing didn't ask what the medicine was, nor did she ask where she got it from—she has always been like this, lacking curiosity about the details of life, and at the same time maintaining an amazing calmness.

"Thanks for your hard work."

"It's not very hard, didn't you say don't look too much?"

"There is no way to do things like biological instinct..."

"? Creatures don't have this instinct at all."

Xiaohui stretched out her hands to him in a good mood, surrounded by paper cranes running around.

"Want to give it a hug?"

"It's too small."

"Kids grow up."

"Weighs like half a watermelon."

——Shir's wonderful metaphor.

The child who was compared to a watermelon didn't have any dissatisfaction. Ah Jing sighed with a somewhat melancholy expression.

"I don't like toys either, but he seems willing to stay with Ah Xiang. It's a good thing to be close to small animals."

"Ah? It doesn't matter what kind of thing it is."

"...It is said that the construction of a child's character is quite important, at least that's what was said in the pile of books Aaron sent over."

"You actually read it all."

Shi Er showed a look of surprise: "I thought you would rely on the ability and experience of future vision in these things."

"Science is also very important—conjurers also need to talk about science."

Neither of these two people’s childhood can be used as a reference case. One of them is considered by most people to be "born with knowledge". He has observed times several times his own age in childhood, so he appears to be young and old at the beginning; the other It is a mosaic full of bloody violence, even if it is made into a game, it will probably be labeled as R16.

"By the way, I met Naoya today."

Shi Er thought for a while, and decided to reveal part of his experience: "Although I still have that bad attitude... But it seems that something has changed."

"Naoya-kun?"

"Ah."

"I haven't seen anything about him for a long time."

"I have become a special second-level conjurer, dyed my hair and put on earrings, and my appearance has changed a lot."

——and proudly boasted that she had won the special second-tier title several years earlier than her.

Shi Er decided to hide this for the time being, he yawned: "That kind of character should be beaten when you go out to school."

"...You can guess without even looking."

Ah Jing nodded in agreement.
