If you have often tasted the unsympathy of human beings, you will be deeply impressed by the self-sacrificing selfless love of beasts. - Edgar Allan Poe, "Black Cat".

◇

After bidding farewell to Weiyang and his brother, he returned to his residence and waited until late, but of course it was in vain, and the game would go on until midnight. Television continues to cover the city's reconstruction.

Ahh

Qingyi, who was holding the puff, was full of dazed anxiety in his head, and when he came back to his senses, it was already ten o'clock in the night.

Dazing up at the circular chandelier on the ceiling.

That's right, I'll have to figure out something for myself. At first, she just wanted to bring Sister Weiyang in, but if it was really as she noticed, the possibility of gradually becoming satisfied was very high.

But if she hadn't come here, my brother and I wouldn't have so many opportunities to get along, so wouldn't it matter if we let it go?

It is human beings who are good at thinking, and because they have no strength, they think.

At this time, that guy is still needed.

"Puffs, hey, puffs?"

Puffs continued to sleep in her arms.

This kind of lonely moment can only think of one name.

"Mom's ......"

Where are you?

Subconsciously said the words of longing, Qingyi put down the puffs and got up with his backpack.

"Seiichi."

“……”

"Seiichi, it's me."

Seiichi turned his head with a surprised look, and found that the cat's gaze had a certain determination, as if it was enduring something, and narrowed its eyes again, and the rhythm of its breathing was also chaotic.

"Mom?!"

Really, really, really, really, or false?! Kiyoichi covered his mouth to stop himself from screaming.

"Qingyi, I have a request, don't hurt yourself, can you promise me?"

The cat walked up to Kiyoichi and looked at her.

"You, are you really?!" Qing picked up the puffs and looked at each other.

"Seiichi, I understand your feelings," Puff said calmly, "but the more you have to endure this moment, and hold on until the second half of the year." ”

Although Kiyoichi faintly noticed that the sudden appearance of the puff was not simple, the puff's request made people feel heartache and loneliness, and the mood couldn't help but become depressed.

"I'm running out of magic," Puff began to gasp hard, "Remember, you have to hold back." ”

“…… Mom, Mommy? Qing held the puffs in his arms.

"Also, don't say ...... to them," the cat whimpered a few times at the end.

"Well, mom......" Kiyoichi was about to answer, when he found the puff asleep.

How the hell did Mom do it?

Put the puff on the sofa, stand up and watch it lose his mind for a long time, but his body is unbalanced and shaking, and he supports himself by holding on to the corner of the wall.

After being in a daze for a long time, Kiyoichi wrapped himself in a cloak.

When I walked down the street, I suddenly felt like I couldn't understand it and gave up on myself. And that emotion became a reason for her to be even stronger, a reason to easily override everything.

Breathing gradually began to be disordered, and his cheeks looked red. It was shaking like a cold.

Passing by, waiting on the side of the road, cycling by, full of happy smiles, she is aimlessly locking on to the object.

"Really, brother...... I don't understand it at all...... Stupid ......"

This is no longer meaningless self-talk, and Seiichi is just muttering in his mouth, driving himself forward with mechanical movements.

What exactly am I doing......

Obviously, I was very happy to meet my mother just now, but because of her appearance, I fell into a greater loss.

There is a curse that haunts me and I continue to pour my feelings into my brother and always act according to his needs...... It's like a part being used indiscriminately.

Besides, for witches, the so-called evil thoughts will not really subside, so why don't you let me write it......

When I arrived at the sparsely populated riverside park, the opportunity finally appeared, and the young couple in front of me were full of happy smiles, walking arm in arm, as if they had just finished watching a movie on their way home.

There are few opportunities, so all you need to do is take out the pen and gently press it towards them, and the grief will all dissipate.

Really...... No, you have to suppress it.

"Ahhh......h I'm disgusting. "Laugh at yourself with your head like this.

The couple gradually walked over.

Nothing happened and passed by.

"Sure enough...... I can't do it......"

Groaning in utter utter utterance, the girl suddenly fell to the ground.

"This kid ...... What's wrong? The woman asked suddenly.

"Leave her alone, don't get into trouble." The man dragged her and hurried away.

◇

After being unconscious for a long time, Kiyoichi slowly got up and smiled stupidly, and now he is much better.

No, no, it was the breath of the magician that woke her up.

The little witch suddenly showed a lazy and silly appearance. Looks like I can't escape this time.

"I'm going to ...... Go home," Kiyoichi whispered, "Go home...... It's just fine......"

Kiyoichi weakly supported himself to his feet, and then said meaninglessly.

Seiichi swallowed her saliva in pain, struggling to speak, her vision blurred, and then she immediately closed her eyes, leaving only the sound of chaotic breathing.

Turning around and walking slowly towards the apartment building, the air was getting colder and colder. But even that can't stop. Inhaling the air carelessly, Seiichi continued to walk on the deserted path.

I have to hold back until my brother arrives at the apartment, maybe he will continue to take care of me, and it would be good if he could serve tea and water, and I feel very satisfied, right? You don't have to hurt anyone that way, do you?

That's why I have to keep walking.

But since the two days that Sister Yang has lived in the apartment, that feeling has never appeared again.

As if laughing at my lonely self, even so, the world is still running unrelated to me.

Yes, alone. She suddenly remembered this fact, why didn't she listen to her brother and go directly to the train station at that time, she just wanted to escape alone, but she was still found by Sister Weiyang.

I don't know if it's because some time has passed, and my thinking is much clearer.

Ah, in other words, that feeling is just envy and jealousy for human beings.

Of course, she didn't know which side he would choose. I just ran away because I didn't want to know.

She sighed self-deprecatingly.

That guy won't go against Chang Lun to make a choice, I know that......

But what is your current self? There is no self-confidence to be able to say it clearly. It's not like Dad is a complete human, and it's not like Mom is a complete witch.

It's just a half-existence, which is really annoying.

Sure enough, let's go back like this, listen to my mother, and persist until the second half of the year, maybe she will help me lift this curse.

Unconsciously blocked by a bench, he shook his head as if he wanted to wave goodbye to his troubles, and cleared to confirm the figure on the bench.

The small square around the benches was completely submerged in a dusk darkness, with only a street lamp and moonlight among the clouds looking down on everything.

The little witch took a small step forward to end the silence.

“Furia？ Halphia？ Apate？ Cacia？ Androka？ The man in a crisp suit sat on a bench and asked one after another.

Seiichi regained her composure, her appearance wrapped in a black cloak was cold and thorough, and everything was still.

"I don't know...... So it's called Karin, and that's fine. Kiyoichi replied softly as he looked around as he was gradually engulfed in darkness.

"I've finally found you, witch, why don't you run away? Has the magic been reduced? The man smiled sarcastically.

"If you're just trying to kill me, it's okay in the morning."

"When I'm stupid Karin, how can I not know the cost of offending these two families? I was curious as to why you didn't do it first, but I have the answer now. ”

The man on the bench suddenly turned into a cloud of smoke and dust.

In the darkness ahead, the man reappeared, "Then the witch who has no magic powers, hand over the things." ”

"What's that?"

"Knowingly ask, but it's okay, I'll get it after killing you."

With an eastern face, a majestic and upright figure and a mustache, he walked over and aimed his palm at Qingyi's forehead.

The palm of the palm gradually blooms with purple fluorescence.

Kiyoichi smiled with relief under the lamp, then closed his eyes.

"Goodbye, brother."

The middle-aged man suddenly smiled pleasantly.

Dying and still thinking about the engraver? It's really annoying to contact him so many times to treat me as a harassing call, and what kind of big words do you want to punch one by one......

"The surname is Guan."

Boom.

The middle-aged man didn't look back, his chest froze in response, and burst in the next moment.

Looking at the corpse that fell down with a straight look in his eyes, Xia Han breathed a sigh of relief after waving the ice cube from his wrist.

"Sorry, it's late."

After walking over and buttoning Qingyi with a wizard hat, Xia Han showed a look of surprise.

Kiyochi touched the brim of his hat and curled the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, but opened his eyes as if he had just woken up.

"Huh, brother? What about Sister Weiyang? Curious, he looked up.

Aren't you afraid at all?

"Don't mention it, she was intercepted by her father as soon as she came out of the committee."

Only then did I know that Weiyang didn't tell his family at all, and Xu Wu's eyes staring at Xia Han at that time were the same as staring at human traffickers.

But for some reason, the moment Weiyang closed the car door, the expression on his face was very happy.

"That's right...... Is that brother going to school? ”

What's the problem......

"It seems that before waiting for Dad's news, I can only serve you." Xia Han replied helplessly.

Hearing this, Seiichi smiled happily.

"That'...... What to do with this uncle? ”

"yes, that's a problem."

The night wind scraped his cheeks like a knife, and Xia Han gradually revealed a gloomy look.

Maybe people kill because they realize the most important thing.

But let's face it, the other party is a magic envoy of the seventh rank, and the death of a person of this level will undoubtedly alarm the upper echelons of the association, and even invite revenge.

There are many ways to destroy the corpse or erase the traces of the scene, but the Skynet is magnificent, and there will always be flaws.

I can't say anything in front of my sister, and Weiyang is not there, and telling my aunt is even more finished, what should I do?

"Leave it to me." In the distance came a girl in a white jacket.
