Chapter Twenty-Seven: Long-Lost Brother and Sister?
Wait, wait! What's going on?!
Mu Xiu, who had just turned around, only had time to blink his eyes before he found that he had been slammed to the ground.
Lying on the ground, he looked suspiciously at the kimono girl who was holding his shoulder with one hand, pressing his knee against his chest, and condescendingly staring at him.
Probably because all this happened so suddenly, he couldn't react for a while, and it wasn't until a few seconds later that he understood what was going on, and he couldn't help but feel the urge to cover his face.
"Okay okay, I see, I'm not going to run, so...... Can you get off me first? β
The two ceremonies were silent, their faces expressionless and their dark eyes looked at Mu Xiu motionlessly. She just pressed the other person's body with her hands and feet, and pointed the tip of the knife in her hand at him as if she were threatening, because she didn't believe what the other person said.
After all, it was at the risk of his life that he finally caught the other party, and if he let go of the other party and ran away, who could he find to reason with at that time.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"But even if you look at me so silently, I don't know what you're trying to say, at least...... Let's get the tip out of the way, right? β
Mu Xiu was a little helpless and took a step back and lowered his requirements, but the kimono girl was still unmoved, and he didn't know what to say.
At this moment, along with the rhythmic footsteps, there was a pretended deep voice
"Yo, it's been a long time, Mu Xiujun...... Well? β
Walking into the milky white hall of the West Building with quite elegant steps, Aozaki Orange smiled quite elegantly while lighting herself a lady's cigarette.
Then, she saw the scene where the two were now deadlocked at a glance, and she couldn't help laughing, and the prepared lines were naturally disrupted.
"Poofhahahaha...... What are youβWhat are you doing here? β
Asakami Fujino and Kuroki followed her, carefully past the corpses of the dolls in the corridor, and walked into the dimly lit hall together.
Then, both of them saw the scene at the same time, and their reactions were almost identical, they both first had their pupils constricted, and then they both fell silent.
"yes, yes, it's been a long time, and choosing to entrust a firm like you with illegal procedures is really the biggest mistake of my life......"
Mu Xiu, who was pressed under the two ceremonies and lying on the ground, turned his head and glanced at Aozaki Orange, and said with an expressionless face.
"Then again, when are you going to compensate me for liquidated damages?"
"Hmm!! The man who is scheming in this regard is the worst, so let's say okay, I have never leaked your information directly...... So don't expect me to lose money! β
Aozaki Orange walked up to him with a cigarette in her mouth, glared at him with a bad attitude, and condescendingly refused Mu Xiu's request.
And her natural statement immediately made the latter's forehead bloom.
So doesn't this guy know what it means to be disqualified in the world? With such a bad attitude, how did her third-rate firm survive until now?
"Forget it, I know, then you can at least let her get me up......"
After staring at this nasty woman for a long time, Mu Xiu finally gave in a little reluctantly, and he sighed in a low voice.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Araya Zonglian's body, which had lost all its vitality, was placed against the wall from the corridor to the entrance of the hall, standing quietly.
At first glance, it looks like a lifeless but lifelike wax figure, obviously the external injury is only a severed hand, but it has completely lost its breath of life.
This makes the puppet expert orange master can't help but be amazed after a simple inspection.
Because she couldn't see how this guy's life was killed.
It was as if there were no signs, and it was impossible to determine whether or not they had been attacked, and Araya Zonglian suddenly suffered "death" silently. It seems to be pointed out by a thousand people, and it ends without a problem.
The hallway was densely packed with the corpses of the dolls, which looked lifelike, but the wounds were all fatal with a single knife, and there was no blood.
It's just that in the dark shadows, the bodies of so many dolls are stacked horizontally, and it seems that the scene still can't help but make people's scalps tingle......
The two ceremonies finally left Mu Xiu's body, and the latter stood up silently, reaching out and patting the non-existent dust on his body.
While ignoring the cold gaze of the kimono girl, he was thinking about how to explain this later, when he heard this sentence from the side
"Mr. Musiu...... Good evening. β
With his hands alternately placed in front of him, with a smile like an eldest lady on his face, and Fujino Asagami next to him bent down and bowed slightly, and his etiquette was impeccable.
"It's Fujino...... Good evening. β
Mu Xiu turned his head to look at the girl who was wearing a black outfit in the style of a European-style maid, which was very similar to the uniform of the previous Liyuan Academy, and changed her expressionless face from before to a somewhat weak smile, and responded like this.
I don't know if it's an illusion, it's clear that Asakami Fujino's behavior is no different from usual, but he always feels that the girl's perfect smile seems to have become a little ...... Is it a delusion?
Immediately afterward, the atmosphere at the scene fell into a strange silence as a matter of course
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
The two ceremonies had been staring at Mu Xiu coldly, that kind of gaze was as sharp as a knife, and in the face of anyone's gaze, Mu Xiu, who could handle it calmly in most cases, felt very uncomfortable.
Because it's not a cold gaze from an enemy, but it's a far cry from a stranger's faux pas.
In fact, he was no stranger to this kind of vision, although he was not very familiar with it, but he did have quite sufficient experience, because most of them could only appear in Daisy-san.
And generally, that happens when you are at a loss.
Now the situation is actually the same, and the inexplicable Mu Xiu feels that he seems to have some reasons, but he is not familiar with the two rituals...... Uh, I guess it's unfamiliar, right?
He thought with some uncertainty.
As for Kuroki Kanya, he didn't even say hello, but this is not that he is not polite, but he is obviously completely lost and wandering in the world.
I don't know if I was shocked by the scene where the two ceremonies rode on Mu Xiu's body just now, or because of
"That, Senior Mu Xiu...... Are you and Miss Liangyi brother and sister? β
After carefully studying the similarity between the eyebrows of the two for a while, Asakami Fujino's expression was very strange, and after hesitating, she still said this idea that she had suspected for a long time.
"Speaking of which...... I think the two of you look really similar, and I'm not the only one who thinks so. β
It was probably because she broke the silence and started the topic that everyone subconsciously moved their eyes to the faces of Mu Xiu and the two ceremonies.
Aozaki Orange nodded quite seriously: "Seconded, I think so too." β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
The two ceremonies immediately raised their eyebrows imperceptibly, and there seemed to be a strange repulsion between her eyebrows, but her lips opened slightly but she didn't say anything.
The corners of Mu Xiu's mouth twitched slightly, and he shook his head decisively: "No...... Why do you think so, if you think about it a little, you know that it's impossible...... I don't have the surname Liangyi. β
That's right, you can see the difference just by the difference in the last name.
One is Liangyi, the other is Mu, and the difference is a little too big, at least it's not the difference between Asagami Fujino's shallow and shallow gods at all!
"Does a surname really mean anything?" Aozaki Orange sneered with some disdain, and then took a puff of cigarette, as if intentionally or unintentionally making up for it, "Besides, who knows if your name is true or false." β
Strictly speaking, she is still a magician with the famous surname of Aosaki! That's the number one magic wizard in the entire 11th district. But now she also breaks off relations with the family and never gets along?
Even in the years when she was sealed and designated by the Magic Association, she mainly relied on herself, at most, with the secret help of Aoko Aosaki, the Aosaki family did not contribute to this matter.
So in a sense, she's probably the least likely to believe in the role of surnames.
Because magicians overlap each other's blood, they want to "leave research to their descendants", "increase their own magic", and "continue the pursuit of the family", and they have these things as their goals.
The goal was clear from the beginning, so it was only natural that it was not a world where family affection was paramount.
The innate determination of kinship itself is meaningless in many cases, and it is just a cold bargaining chip for magicians, so is it really difficult to change the acquired surname slightly?
ββ¦β¦β
The corners of Mu Xiu's mouth suddenly pulled again, so does this guy have to dismantle his own platform?
"What's the matter with me, it's obvious that you're so entangled yourself, and you can't see through such a simple thing, so I'm righteous, okay?" The puppeteer pouted, "If you don't jump out, won't there be nothing?" β
Mu Xiu couldn't help but hold his forehead, and moaned a little weakly: "What are you kidding, do I have to thank you in this way?" If I hadn't come out just now, she would have ......"
At this point, he stopped abruptly, and his words stopped abruptly.
Mu Xiu glanced in a certain direction a little inexplicably, as if he suddenly understood something, he took a deep breath, and then slowly walked to the corner of the hall.
Then, in the midst of everyone's puzzled gaze, he stretched out his hands to press the wall, shaking his body so that the wall hit his forehead again and again.
"So, if you really don't care, why jump out?"
When Aozaki Orange saw this scene, she couldn't help but smile very happily.
"It's such a simple thing, and I care so much about her...... So what is there to worry about, isn't it good to be open? β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"So, so, so, Orange-sama, please shut up for me."
Mu Xiu turned around and said angrily, "It's still in someone else's territory, waiting for that guy to exchange a new body...... You'd better think about how best to deal with him. β
Regardless, it's always right to change the subject first.
"Don't worry, although Araya's doll-making skills are good, they are still far inferior to mine...... The process was not so fast, and it was impossible to say that the old body died, and he was able to revive in the new body in no time, even if it was his other world. β
Aozaki Orange waved her hand in the slightest, she just asked with her eyes shining with interest
"And isn't there still you here, just kill him in seconds...... Continuing with the previous question, I just imagined it before, but now it should be considered confirmed, right? You must have something to do with the formula...... But what exactly is the relationship? β
ββ¦β¦ Relationships are just no relationships. β
Mu Xiu said with an indifferent expression, to be precise, he no longer knew what expression to use at this time. 2k reading web
