Chapter 31: The Resurrected Dead
As a magical girl, Kyoko Sakura lacks a sufficient sense of justice, and will only fight for her own desires, and does not care about the sacrifices of people she never knows.
But if it's someone you have a friendship with, it's a different story.
For example, Asami, the person who taught her when she first debuted, has a friendship that makes her fight.
Even if they have broken up due to disagreement in philosophy, grace is grace and hatred is hatred, and the two should not cancel each other out.
Although it is contradictory, this is Sakura Kyoko's attitude towards life.
She doesn't look like a girl in the modern city at all, but more like a happy revenge in ancient times, only looking at the chivalrous man of today, big grin and chic. Because of this, he will be familiar with Yingluo at first sight.
"What, you're saying that the soul of our magical girl has condensed into this soul gem, and our body is just a walking corpse?" Apricot asked with a chocolate bar in her mouth and a look of surprise, "How do you prove it?"
"It's very simple, the range of the soul gem is only 100 meters, and as long as you exceed this distance, your body will completely lose control. Xiao Meiyan said lightly: "If you don't believe it, you will know it by trying." ”
"Just try!" Apricot didn't admit defeat and took out her red soul gem, and was about to put it on the ground, but stopped moving: "Wait a minute, if you lied to me, wouldn't you let you get my soul gem." If you hadn't lied to me, wouldn't I have let you slaughter my body when it lost control? Hmph, am I stupid? I won't be fooled! Hey, how about you test it with your soul gems?"
"With the same concerns, I refuse!"
"Hey, what a cunning fellow. Isn't there nothing to prove?"
"If you don't believe me, I can't help it. ”
"Wait a minute. Kyoko suddenly grinned, "Magical girl's words, it's not just the two of us, right?"
So Sayaka Miki lay down again, no way, who made her the weakest one.
Although being weak is not a sin, it is enough as a reason to be bullied.
Sayaka is not only weak, but also very unlucky, although she wants to be a righteous partner, but this kind of person has always had no good end, and the best result is just to become a heroic spirit and continue to exert her residual heat, but unfortunately her hair color and gender are not quite right.
This girl has been a little miserable lately, and she made a wish to Kewpie in order to heal her crush's arm, and she didn't know it at all, so she didn't get anything in return.
Of course, righteous partners do good deeds without expecting anything in return, and it is not bad to reap a full sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. When she sees her sweetheart happy, she is happy, which is probably what youth looks like.
But when I came to visit today,,But I was told that Kyosuke Kamijo had been discharged from the hospital.,I'll come to visit every day tomorrow.,Obviously it's a childhood sweetheart.,Obviously they have each other's mobile phone numbers.,There's not even a notice for such a big thing as being discharged.,This seems a little unkind.。
Geniuses don't understand the world?
But geniuses are not orphans, there are always parents, right?
Children are not sensible, and adults are also so-two? I don't even understand this bit of human sophistication, and it is not an exaggeration to say that I am old enough to live on a dog.
For a moment, Sayaka felt a little lost.
In front of the gate of Uejo's house, Sayaka stood for a long time, listening to the sound of the violin playing from inside, but still did not press the doorbell.
She let out a sigh of relief, maybe it was impossible for a genius to be a mortal like her, if the other party could be happy, she would also be very happy.
Sayaka turned around, but was startled by the figure behind her.
Kyoko Sakura stood quietly in the moonlight, eating snacks while looking at her with bad intentions: "Do you want to leave without seeing you? ”
Sayaka frowned, "What are you doing here?"
"It's the young master of this family, the contract you made with Cuppy. Apricot spread his hands and said, "Really, the only miracle is wasted on such a trivial matter, are you stupid?"
"What do selfish people like you know?"
"It's you who don't understand. Kyoko said, "Magic itself is something that fulfills one's own wishes, and it will not end well if it is used by others." This kind of thing should be very clear, didn't that guy tell you?"
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
"What I'm going to say is, isn't there a simpler and clearer way to get the man you like? Now break in and break his hands and feet, so that the other party can only stay with you honestly? Both body and mind, all belong to you!"
Sayaka was shocked at first, then angry, and her whole body trembled: "Can you say such vicious words, are you still human?"
"Why, can't you do it?" said Kyoko with a wicked smile: "That's right, it's an acquaintance after all." Then let me help you, just the friendship of the magical girl at that time!hahaha......"
"It's only you, only you can't forgive!" Sayaka clenched her fists: "A guy like you, you must ...... this time"
"Hmph, it seems that there is a lot of fighting spirit. Kyoko smiled triumphantly and said, "Let's change places." ”
Although it is a clumsy agitation method, it is enough to deal with the silly white and sweet Sayaka. As a little girl on campus, she is as smart as a little white flower in a greenhouse, completely played with by an old driver like Apricot in applause.
Although it doesn't take a reason for Kyoko to fight, it is at least more enjoyable to have a reason to move.
I don't know why there are overpasses on the highway, but there are uninhabited woods on both sides, and no one will walk through them. Thanks to this inexplicable bridge, Kyoko and Sayaka have a great duel arena, at least it's hard for the speeding cars below to notice overhead, let alone it's still night.
Kyoko transformed into a magical girl, holding a spear and grinning at Sayaka: "Come on, let's do a big job!"
Sayaka had a grim expression, although she knew that she was not an opponent of Apricot, but she also took out her soul gem and was about to transform, but Madoka ran over in a hurry and shouted, "Wait a minute, Sayaka!"
"Madoka?" Sayaka was stunned, glanced at Kewpie, who came with her, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why did you call Madoka here, it has nothing to do with her, does it?"
"Don't blame Kewpie. Xiao Yuan panted and said: "This kind of thing is not right, everyone is a magical girl, what can't you sit down and talk slowly, why do you have to fight each other?"
"Hmph!" Apricot sneered: "Sure enough, Mother-in-law's guy will have Mother-in-law's companion." ”
"What about your companion?" Xiao Meiyan suddenly appeared behind Apricot and said coldly, "Okay, it's just an experiment, and I can't sit idly by if there is a fight." ”
The corners of Apricot twitched, and she said unhappily: "If you don't knock that guy down first, how can you experiment? Are you deliberately embarrassing me?"
"Then leave it to me. Xiao Meiyan said, "You just have to watch." ”
"Speaking of which, your strange abilities are indeed suitable for raids, and it is not impossible to hand them over to you. Apricot pointed to the chocolate bar in her mouth and said, "But time is limited to me until I finish eating this one." ”
Xiao Meiyan nodded: "Well, that's enough." ”
"Damn, don't underestimate me!" With such obvious contempt, Sayaka really exploded, and the soul gem in her hand was about to transform as soon as it lit up. But something unexpected happened, in order to avoid everyone fighting, Madoka stepped forward with an arrow, directly snatched Sayaka's soul gem, and then threw it under the bridge without saying a word. Coincidentally, a large semi-trailer truck full of goods happened to pass underneath, just in time to catch the fallen soul gem, and drove off into the distance at a very high speed.
This kind of semi-trailer truck has always been synonymous with speeding and overloading, and now it is night, and its speed can be imagined, just a stunned effort, you can only see the two tail lights going farther and farther.
"Oops!" Although the original intention was to separate Sayaka from the soul gem, it was not planned to be taken to the city by a semi-trailer. Xiao Meiyan's face tightened, and she disappeared directly in place, chasing after the semi-trailer truck like a flash.
Sayaka also reacted at this time, and ran to Madoka Xiao with a surprised look and asked, "Madoka, what are you doing......
Before she finished speaking, Sayaka's voice suddenly stopped, and her body shook and fell softly on Madoka.
"Sayaka?"
Kewpie jumped in front of Madoka and said helplessly, "Hey, Madoka, isn't it too much to suddenly throw your friends away?"
"Huh?" Madoka looked confused: "Sayaka...... What's wrong?"
Kyoko walked quickly, opened Sayaka's eyelids, put her hand on the other party's neck artery, and said with a shocked face, "Dead...... That guy, it's true!"
"Dead? how could it be?" Madoka sat on the ground, staring blankly at Sayaka who was lying motionless on the ground, her face full of horror.
Obviously he was fine just now, but he was still a friend who could talk and breathe, how could he suddenly die?
It's like a dream, full of unacceptable disobedience!
"Hey!" Apricot pointed his spear at Kewpie: "What the hell is going on, tell me clearly!"
Cuppy squatted on the guardrail of the overpass, wagged his tail and said, "The range of magical girls controlling their bodies is a hundred meters, and this will happen beyond this distance. Normally, they are inseparable from the body, but occasionally they have accidents. ”
"What are you talking about, Kewpie!" Madoka shouted hoarsely, "Save Sayaka, don't let her die!"
"Alas. Cuppy sighed and said, "Madoka, it's not Sayaka lying there, it's just an empty shell." Wasn't the real Sayaka thrown away by you just now?"
"Huh?" Madoka was stunned.
Apricot touched the gem on her chest, gritted her teeth and said, "So, are our souls really our respective soul gems?"
"You already know, did Xiao Meiyan tell you? It seems that she does know a lot of information. ”
Apricot grabbed Kewpie's ear and lifted it up, and said viciously: "Less nonsense, if you don't want to become a dead rabbit, tell me everything honestly!"
"Well, if you ask, I'll answer. Cuppy said flatly: "The body of ordinary humans is too fragile, of course I can't let you use that body to fight the witch." For you magical girls, your soul has been reduced to a safe form that can efficiently operate magical power, that is, soul gems, and the original body is nothing more than something outside the body. It's my mission to make a magical girl contract with you, and part of this contract is to extract your souls to make soul gems. ”
"What have you done, aren't we magical girls zombie-like in this way?" Kyoko asked loudly.
"But the efficiency has improved dramatically. Cuppy said as a matter of course: "Whether it is draining blood or piercing the heart, as long as the soul gem is still there and there is enough magic power, it can repair the body over and over again." So go to the witch as much as you can, get the seed of lamentation, you are immortal, isn't this the result of your dreams for human beings?"
"It's too much...... This is too much......" Madoka hugged Sayaka and cried in pain: "Even though I'm still a child, it's too pitiful to become a zombie!"
"Well, I can't understand you humans when I tell you the truth. Kewpie said, "With your level of technology, you can't detect the location of the soul at all, so why bother with whether it is in the body or the soul gem?"
"Even if technology can't detect the soul, the spirit is closely related to the soul. A voice suddenly sounded, and everyone turned their heads to see a girl with long black hair slowly walking up the bridge.
"Yingluo!"
"Yingluo-san?"
"Ah, it's me. Yingluo smiled and waved his hand at Apricot and Xiaoyuan, and then looked at Kewpie: "Soul, spirit, and body, the three complement each other and are highly unified. There is no priority between them, and it is foolish to regard the soul as the subject of life and abandon the other two. Maybe you're doing it to make magical girls better at fighting, but this greatly violates the basic rules of this universe and will cause irreversible damage to magical girls. Kewpie, as an advanced race that can extract souls, you should know this clearly, why don't you talk about it?"
"Humanity has not reached the level of understanding life, and that kind of harm has no effect on them at present. ”
"Simply put, it's bullying stupid, right? Yingluo nodded: "I received your answer." ”
"If you can ask such a question, are you really not human?" asked Cuppy, staring at red eyes.
Yingluo smiled slightly: "Guess!"
Xiao Meiyan appeared on the overpass at some point, panting and placing the recovered soul gem on Sayaka's hand.
Two seconds later, Sayaka took a sharp breath, her eyes regained her strength, and she slowly sat up from the ground.
"I ...... What's wrong?"
Madoka and Apricot turned pale for a while, witnessing the resurrection of the dead, making the atmosphere extremely weird!
