（…… Beg...... Save...... ）

Who in the darkness without the concept of time and space - has been whispering in the ear.

（…… Senior Sister ...... Again...... ）

The consciousness is so confused that he has even lost the ability to organize his words, and can only listen unconsciously.

（…… World...... Change...... ）

―――――― Split ――――――

Following.

After coming to Takiwara, the strange feeling became more and more intense, but it was like an illusion, and even if the genetic lock was opened, no abnormality could be observed.

Asami's death was like a pebble thrown into the sea—faint ripples echoed only in the hearts of a few people who were fixed around him, and more than that, he was indifferent.

After the car accident, she has been living alone, and in a situation like this sudden disappearance, it is estimated that no one will care about her except for the teacher who is a little strange.

Lunch break.

Just like yesterday, Mayaka Kame and Sayaka Miki came to the rooftop again with the inseparable Kewpie, however, this time there was one less figure, and the atmosphere became extremely heavy.

"I feel like I'm in a different country...... Whether it's school or Renmi-chan, it's all exactly the same as yesterday...... But I felt like I was in the middle of a crowd that I didn't know. ”

I just don't know, it's anyone. Whether it's the witch's affairs or the affairs of Sister Mamei, only we know. No one else knows. Aren't we just watching different things live in different worlds? ”

“…… Sayaka-chan. ”

"It's changed in the past, and we should have discovered it earlier, and we're ...... too."

atmosphere, falling into an even more unbearable silence.

Just then, a familiar breath approached.

Shifting his gaze, he saw the iconic long black hair in the direction of the clock tower opposite.

At this moment, Xiao Meiyan unabashedly revealed her killing intent to Lin Xuan.

For her, Lin Xuan's behavior is estimated to have been repeated "provocations".

"Madoka, you're still ...... Want to be a magical girl? Miki Sayaka's sudden question attracted Lin Xuan's attention, not only Lin Xuan, but even Xiao Meiyan temporarily gave up the idea of being hostile to Lin Xuan, and nervously paid attention to Lume Yuanxiang's answer.

(Speaking of which, it seems that her purpose from the beginning was just to prevent Madoka Kame from becoming a magical girl)

Madoka Kame didn't answer, but lowered her head in silence.

That gesture was enough to represent her reply.

“…… Well, yes, it can't be helped. ”

For an ordinary middle school girl living in the normal world, death, which was still quite far away before, wants to accept it like this......

“…… I also know it's cunning. Now it's time to regret it...... But...... No, no...... I...... That kind of death...... Just thinking about it, I can't breathe...... I can't stand it, I'm so scared...... Don't......"

"Sister Mamei is really a very gentle person. What kind of consciousness is required to fight, in order for us to know this, that person ......"

“…… Hey, Kewpie. ”

Sayaka Miki suddenly asked the cuppie who was crouching in front of him, "What will become of this city?" Who will fight with the witch in place of Sister Ma Mei in the future to protect everyone? ”

"For a long time, this place was ruled by Asami, but once there is an empty seat, other magical girls will not sit idly by. Soon, other children will come to hunt witches. ”

"But, that's just the guy who came here with his eyes on the seed of sorrow, right? Same with that transfer student. ”

"It's true that a type like Asami is rare, and people generally take the gains and losses seriously, and people expect returns."

"But...... But what's the matter. Cuppy added calmly, "The only ones who can blame them are children who have the same mission as magical girls like them, aren't they?" ”

Lin Xuan scoffed, since Mayaka Shikame and Sayaka Miki had already determined their attitudes, it was time to make a move......

glanced at Xiao Meiyan from afar. She should be happy now, after all, her ultimate goal - not to let Madoka Shikame become a magical girl - was achieved so easily.

(Speaking of which...... Maybe she deliberately let Asami die, just like Kewpie, but the former wanted Mayaka Kame to give up becoming a magical girl out of fear, and the latter wanted to coerce Mayaka Kame to become a magical girl in an emergency...... It's really unjust to die, Asami)

"Well, I know how you feel, it's a pity, but I can't force people to make it difficult."

“…… Kewpie. ”

"Don't leave it at that. I'm going to keep looking for a kid who can make a contract with me—"

"Can I? Instead of Asami, protect the city......"

Lin Xuan, who came out from behind the water tower, said so calmly.

"Lin Xuanjun?"

"Why are you here?"

He smiled awkwardly at the two girls.

"I'm sorry, I've been here since I started, but I can't make up my mind for a while......"

"No, it'......s me," Madoka Kame lowered her head with a sad expression.

Miki Sayaka captured another important point: "You mean, you have to sign a contract with Kewpie and become a magician-"

It is estimated that he realized Lin Xuan's gender, but the last word was difficult to say.

Lin Xuan smiled indifferently: "Well, after all, this city still needs someone to guard it now...... May I? Kewpie"

"Of course!" I don't know if it's an illusion, Kewpie's tone was quite excited, and his tail kept flicking: "Your qualifications are much higher than Ba Asami, and you will definitely be able to become a magical boy who is even more powerful than her!" ”

(Qualifications?) Could it be that this is the reason why Basumi sacrificed to make a contract between Masaka Shikame and Sayaka Miki? ）

"Now, then, sign a contract with me!" Cuppy said impatiently, running towards Lin Xuan.

After hesitating, Lin Xuan didn't stop it from crawling onto his body.

"Not yet, wait for the evening, I still have to think about my wishes...... Is it okay to go home? ”

"Well, it's okay, but for me, the sooner the better" Lin Xuan thought it would take a lot of speech, but he didn't expect Kewpie to agree easily.

"That...... Lin Xuanjun ......"

Madoka Kame's eyes looked like she was a little speechless and stopped. "I'm sorry, I ......"

Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled calmly: "It's okay, this kind of fighting is not what you should do, since I can, let me do it!" ”

He patted his chest hard.

"Replace you and protect this city!"

(Perhaps, try dissecting it?) The corner of his eye swept to the Kewpie who kept flicking his tail on his shoulder, Lin Xuan thought so.
