During recess, the pink, green and blue trio got together again after a long absence, but Hitomi Shizuki couldn't help but yawn.

"What's wrong, Hitomi?" said Sayaka the blue hair, grinning, "Sleep deprivation?"

Renmei nodded apologetically: "Well, it was the police and the hospital last night. ”

"Huh?" Sayaka let out an exaggerated exclamation, pretending not to know anything, and asked, "Did something happen?"

"It's like I'm suffering from sleepwalking or something...... Hitomi said in distress. In order not to snub Madoka, who had never spoken, she also looked at Madoka and said, "And there are many people with the same symptoms, everyone has fallen in the same place, isn't it super strange?"

Of course, Madoka knew what was going on, but she couldn't say it explicitly, and she was not good at lying, so she could only laugh a few times and perfunctory.

In order to avoid being seen by Renmei, Sayaka hurriedly laughed and said, "Haha, it's quite strange, isn't there any specific explanation?"

"The doctor said it was a collective hallucination or something, but I don't quite understand. Renmei spread her hands and said, "But it's really troublesome to have a detailed examination after school." ”

"In that case, why don't you take a leave of absence from the school. With Renmei's grades, it shouldn't be like me and Madoka to fail the course, right?"

"No, isn't that really like you're sick?" Hitomi shook her head and said, "It will make the family even more worried." ”

Sayaka stretched out her thumb appreciatively and said with a smile: "It's really worthy of being an honor student, amazing!"

It was obviously the same hearty laughter as usual, but Madoka listened to it more and more heartbroken.

After school, Madoka and Sayaka were lying on the grass by the river, Sayaka stretched her waist and said with a comfortable face: "Ah, it's been a long time since I've been so relaxed, it's so comfortable!"

Madoka glanced at her friend, and finally blurted out the question after a day of patience: "Sayaka...... Aren't you scared at all?"

"I'm still a little scared, and my head was blank when I fought yesterday. Sayaka looked at the sky and replied, "But if I hadn't fought at the time, I would have lost both Madoka and Asami at the same time, and that would be what scared me even more." ”

"...... Sayaka"

"Besides, yesterday I solved the witch in three or two clicks, so it seems that I am quite strong. Sayaka sat up, took out her blue soul gem and said with a smile: "Self-confidence, security, and the satisfaction of helping others, even I want to praise myself!

Sayaka jumped up, held the soul gem in both hands and raised it above her head, and said loudly: "From now on, when I see the peace of Takiwara City, I will let my magical girl Sayaka protect it!" ”

Sayaka, who was relatively excited, Madoka became more and more lost. In the past, like Sayaka now, she believes that as long as you work hard, you will always succeed, as long as you pay, you will definitely be rewarded, justice will triumph over evil, and heroes will never be troubled by pain.

But actually, what happened last night is the best answer. If it weren't for the appearance of Flame Sauce, her recklessness and recklessness would really have killed Youngluo-san.

It is precisely because she understands her weakness and humility that she understands more and more the difficulties of the path that Sayaka has chosen.

"Sayaka, do you really not regret it at all?" asked Madoka with her head down.

"If you want to say that you regret it, it's probably a little. Sayaka regained her composure and said with some regret: "Since you want to do it, you should have made up your mind earlier." In that case, maybe Sister Mamei won't be ...... Sorry, brought up that incident again. ”

Madoka hugged her legs tightly and said in a trembling voice, "I'm sorry, Sayaka." Obviously, you've become a magical girl.,As a friend, I should be together.,But ...... But ......"

"What a stupid thing you're talking about. Sayaka pinched Xiaoyuan's face: "It's because they're friends that they won't let you step into danger easily." I became a magical girl because I found my wish, even if I fought with my life. Madoka doesn't have it yet, so she doesn't have to take on this responsibility. The so-called friendship is neither a burden nor a shackle, it is just a simple, simple, unique emotion between you and me. Wouldn't it be pitiful to ask too much for that emotion?"

"...... Sayaka"

Sayaka patted Madoka on the shoulder and said, "So you don't have to feel inferior or feel guilty, Madoka doesn't have to be a magical girl, it's just a simple fact." Don't overthink it, just be yourself!"

“…… Well. ”

"Alright, that's the end of the conversation. Sayaka stood up, patted the grass clippings on her skirt and said, "I'm going to leave too, I have something to do, see you tomorrow, Madoka!"

"Ah...... Oh, see you tomorrow. Madoka looked at Sayaka's distant back and muttered, "Do you want to be yourself?" After a moment of silence, she stood up, took out her phone, and flipped to the phone number of Xiao Meiyan, who had only arrived this morning.

"Hey, Hoko-chan, are you free now? I have something...... I wanted to talk to you. ”

……

It's a small convenience store, but business is surprisingly good, and there is a long queue at the cashier, both men and women, young and old.

Kyoko Sakura held a basket full of snacks and said dissatisfiedly: "It's really infuriating to have to line up." With that, she took out a packet of biscuits from the basket and ate them with a click. It can be seen that there are already a lot of empty bags in the basket, and as long as you scan the barcode on it, you can still pay the bill, so the clerk did not stop the behavior of apricots.

"That's it, since there are so many people, let's open a few more windows. The same grumbling came from behind the apricot, followed by the snapping of the can being pulled open.

Apricot turned her head and saw a black-haired girl about her size, holding a can of "tons and tons" of filling. Apricot raised her eyebrows, if you read it correctly, this girl is holding a beer bar, and the underage girl is actually drinking in public, no one cares?

The girl noticed the apricot gaze, threw the empty can into her basket so that she could settle the bill for a while, and then said unhappily, "What are you looking at?"

Oops, the tone is rushing, bad girl?

Apricot became interested, grinned and said, "Interesting, what's your name?"

"Why tell you, if you want to know other people's names, at least report your own name first!"

"It seems that I have been gone for so long that it is terrible to forget me. Listen, my name is Kyoko Sakura. When I met Takihara, you didn't know where it was. Sakura said, tearing open another bag of chocolate, clicking on the next piece, chewing and chewing.

"Oh? Sounds scary. If it was good at the beginning, why should I leave? If it is good now, why do you want to come back? Sakura Kyoko, right? I remember, my name is Yingluo, please give me more advice in the future!"

"Chew Chew Chew ......"

"Tons and tons of ......"

Sakura Kyoko glanced at Yingluo's basket and said defiantly, "Can you afford to buy so much wine? You're a junior high school student, where did you get so much money?"

"Laughing, the protection money collected from the school. Yingluo raised his eyebrows and looked at Sakura Kyoko's basket: "What about you?"

"I'm ashamed to have smashed a few ATMs. ”

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding queuers retreated a long way away, looking at the two girls in the conversation with frightened eyes. In this way, the cash register was opened.

The two glanced at each other, and at the same time gave birth to a little sympathy.

"You're funny. ”

"You're pretty good, too. ”

"This can of beer, for you. ”

"This piece of thick fish is for you. ”

"Thanks, let's see you soon. ”

"Break!"
