Chapter 20: Half the Truth
After searching for the witch to no avail, Lin Hyun separates from Mayaka Shikame and Sayaka Miki.
The next day, the day was still the girls' class time - although Lin Hyun couldn't understand why Miki Sayaka and Xiao Miyan had become magical girls, and in this situation where they could die at any time, they didn't actively look for a powerful way, but chose to continue this meaningless class behavior.
In the evening, Lin Xuan routinely came to Takiwara, and after finding Madoka Kame, he found that Miki Sayaka was not together.
"Sayaka-chan, she went to find Kyosuke-kun" It should be thinking of the words that Lin Xuan said to her before, and the mood of Kamoka was quite low: "Na, Lin Xuan, Sayaka-chan, she really ......"
ββ¦β¦ If nothing else, it's still that kind of ending."
"ButγWhy do you still want to help Sayaka-chan?"
"It's not help," Lin Xuan shook his head lightly: "It's just simple mutual assistance." β
The girl was silent for a moment and said in a low voice, "...... Lin Xuan, don't you care even if you lose your partner? β
Hearing this, Lin Xuan's heart tingled slightly, to this day, do he still have a so-called partner to speak of?
Lies, betrayals, deception, concealment......
The more you care, the more painful it will be in the end, and if you don't get it in the first place, what is there to care?
"If it's okay, I'll leave first, and I'll rest tonight."
"Eh, Lin Xuan......"

Night.
Once again, I came to the tower in the middle of the city and looked down at the night view below.
Now, Xiao Meiyan can be sure that she will not reveal more information to herself, and there is no progress at all on Kewpie's side, so it can be said that Lin Xuan has reached a dead end - he can't find the breakthrough point of the mission at all.
The only thing that can break this situation is that strange voice, although it is not Lin Xuan's wish to put hope on that kind of thing of unknown origin, but if it is just to get information, you can still try it.
Taking a deep breath, just as Lin Xuan was about to start-
(That's a-)
On the lane below, a familiar figure suddenly appeared and disappeared in an instant.
In this world, Lin Xuan knew that only one person could use this special way of moving.
(Xiao Meiyan?) οΌ
After hesitating, Lin Xuan jumped off the tower.
After observing, it was discovered that Xiao Meiyan was chasing a truck in front of her.
And the truck happened to pass under the overpass where Lin Xuan was, and above, an object that emitted a pale blue light attracted Lin Xuan's attention.
(Sayaka's soul gem?) Xiao Meiyan did something to her? οΌ
Lin Xuan jumped off without hesitation.
"Chargeβ"
On the ground, the fine cracks spread, and with the speed bonus brought by the skill, Lin Xuan directly jumped over Xiao Meiyan, who was constantly flashing forward.
Pull on the bracket at the back of the truck and climb it up with all your might.
(It is indeed the soul gem of Sayaka Miki...... οΌ
"What's ......?"
The driver parked the truck on the side of the road in confusion and stepped out of the car to look.
"It's estimated that it's a wild cat or a bird or something, forget it, let's go, and I'm still in a hurry to ship."
The driver scratched his hair, and the van started again.
Turning around, the girl was panting and standing in front of her: "...... Give it to me."
"You say this?" Lin Xuan opened his right hand, and the pale blue gem was shining with a strange lightβthis level of light had never been seen before.
When Xiao Meiyan reached out and was about to take it, Lin Xuan suddenly withdrew her right hand.
"What are you doing?"
The girl's eyebrows frowned slightly: "...... Knowing too much won't do you any good."
"I'll judge for myself whether it's good or not."
After taking a deep look at Lin Xuan, Xiao Meiyan turned around: "...... Come with me".
Follow Miho all the way to another overpass, where Madoka Kame, Kyoko Sakura, and Sayaka Miki, who seems to be unconscious, are on itβno!
Lin Xuan focused his attention on Sayaka, a beautiful tree who fell to the ground.
(No breathing, no heartbeat - dead?) Why didn't the soul gem shatter when it died? οΌ
Lume Yuanxiang looked at Lin Xuan with a worried face: "Lin Xuan, Flame Sauce, Sayaka-chan, she-"
"Give it to me" Lin Xuan didn't say anything this time, and directly handed the soul gem to Xiao Meiyan.
Xiao Meiyan put the soul gem in Meishu Sayaka's hand, just when Lin Xuan was puzzled-
"Eh......"
Her pupils contracted, staring at Miki Sayaka's "corpse", her eyes slowly opened, and she looked around: "Happen...... What's up? β
Blood circulation, body temperature rises, breathing is normal, Sayaka Miki - alive again.

Two hours later, the top of the tower.
In addition to being a symbol of magical girls and a source of power, the soul gem also has another role - the most important role, the destination of the soul.
After saying goodbye to the three magical girls and Madoka Shikame, Lin Xuan came to the top of the tower again.
But there is no longer any need to listen to that voice.
If you sign a contract with Kewpie, as the price of fulfilling your wish, it will extract the girl's soul and make it into a soul gem, and at this time, the original body loses its soul and naturally dies - it can be said that the moment you become a magical girl, the girl is already dead.
After that, the soul that resides in the Soul Gem controls the movement of the body and fights - with a maximum control radius of 100 meters. And the body that has lost its soul.,You can block the pain with the owner's will.,You won't die if you're hit.,It's not so much a human being.,It's more like a zombie.,Only the soul gem.,It's the only point of the magical girl.γ
Asami's death was not due to being bitten off her head, but because the soul gem was shattered.
As long as the soul gem is safe, even if the magical girl is seriously injured, as long as there is enough mana replenishment, it can be restored to its original appearance.
This is the information I just got from Kewpie.
(Literally, it's making a biological weapon...... οΌ
There is no pain, there is no vital point, and the recovery power is even more exaggerated than Lin Xuan's "system", which is completely transformed by the magical girl as a weapon to fight the witch.
And the will of the magical girl herself?
Perhaps, the moment he made his wish, he was completely kidnapped.
Open the black notebook.

The night breeze blew, and the place was empty.
