Zheng Qing reacted for a while before he realized that the little girl's name was Zhu Si.

Immediately, he realized what the little girl had just said.

"Do they eat people?" the young student looked nervously left and right: "They...... Who is it?"

"Elves in the mirror," whispered the little girl, "but I prefer to call them Mirror Demons, Mirror Elves." They like to pretend to be other people, use other people's voices, and talk about other people's things...... There's nothing more fake than them! more fake than a wizard saying 'I love you' to a fishwoman!"

It doesn't look like the words of a seven or eight-year-old girl.

"Why do they do that?"

"To replace someone else. Zhu Si's little face tightened, looking very serious: "As long as it is fake enough, you can use the fake to confuse the real, the tanuki for the prince, and the stealing beam for the pillar!"

The small idioms are still set in a set.

The wizard had a look of interest on his face and continued to ask:

"They're in the mirror, how can they eat people?"

Zhu Si showed a look of disdain on his face: "Why are you so stupid! Can you only use your mouth to eat people? What is the most important thing about people? It is the spirit! It is the soul! They can pollute your spirit unconsciously! Suck your soul!"

"It's so scary. Zheng Qing sighed with emotion, and looked over the girl's head to the hidden mirrors behind her.

"I always feel like your gaze is rude. The little girl folded her arms in front of her chest, tilted her head, and looked at the big boy in front of her with dissatisfaction.

Zheng Qing couldn't laugh or cry a little.

"I think ...... I just thought you were the elf of the mirror world. He spread his hands and explained.

"I'm the elf of the mirror world?!" the little girl had a 'you are blind' expression, stretched out her hand and pointed around, drawing a big circle: "Those guys are the elves of the mirror world...... Is there such a beautiful, cute, smart, and eloquent elf as me in the mirror?

The corners of Zheng Qing's mouth twitched.

This is a bit of a talkative, narcissistic, and kind little girl, and he says in his heart - and of course, it could be a real goblin who is insidious, treacherous, and vicious.

Which one it is, Zheng Qing is not sure. But he preferred the first one, for neither his instincts as a wizard nor the screening magic he had just quietly used were aware of the little girl's ill will towards him.

On the contrary, he felt a strong sadness in the little girl's cheerful and serious tone. It lingered around her and didn't disperse for a long time.

"How old are you?"

"This question is very rude!" Zhu Si's eyes widened: "Mom said that you can't just tell the boy's age." Unless you promise to marry me. ”

This is indeed not what a seven or eight-year-old girl would say.

Zheng Qing immediately skipped the topic.

He's got a tree, a cat, and a fox, and he doesn't want to mess with another mirror.

"I mean, you don't look that old. The wizard asked in a different way.

"I can change my diaper by myself at the age of three!" The little girl glared at him unconvinced: "Does age have anything to do with ability?!" Gan Luo became a great wizard at the age of twelve, and Kong Rong was able to discover the nine uses of 'Jiao Li' at the age of eight...... Compared to them, I'm not a little old at all. ”

Zheng Qing couldn't help but smile.

"Wow, that's amazing. He praised sincerely, rubbed the law book in his hand, and asked thoughtfully, "Listen to what it means...... You're a wizard?"

"It's like a fake!" Zhu Si pulled the old robe on his body, full of energy: "The wizard robe specially made by the Institute of Traditional Magic Tools of the First University is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it also repells insects and mosquitoes to ward off evil spirits!"

Whether there is a difference between spring, summer, autumn and winter in the mirror, or whether there are mosquitoes, Zheng Qing is not sure.

But he was sure that Zhu Si should have been in this world for a long time.

Because the 'First University Institute of Traditional Magic Tools' is the predecessor of the 'First University Institute of Applied Magic', that name has been abandoned for more than fifty years.

The wizard's expression was a little more serious:

"If you're a wizard, why are you here?"

"It's always you who ask me to answer, and I'm going to ask you this question too. Zhu Si hugged his arms, looked like a little adult, and snorted: "Why did you come here?

Oh, she came to the world in the mirror to find someone.

Zheng Qing thought silently in his heart, and suspected that Zhu Si was a child who was lost in the world of hide and seek in the mirror world when the "Wizard Code" was not perfect.

"I'm here to learn. He told the truth honestly: "The teacher seems to want me to understand the true meaning of this world. ”

The little witch gave him a sympathetic look.

"You must be the kind of apprentice who was abused by the master," she stood on tiptoe and patted the wizard's arm comfortingly, "I heard my mother say it...... I heard that you all sleep on the floor of the wizard's tower at night, you can't eat enough, and you will be thrown into dangerous places by the master to do magic experiments. ”

Zheng Qing couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it.

The situations mentioned by Zhu Si have indeed happened in history. Before the establishment of First University and the Wizarding Alliance, old-school wizards were all family and apprenticeship inheritances, and it was very common to squeeze apprentices.

Even now, many children of wizarding families have heard their elders scare people when they were young, such as 'If you don't obey, I'll give you to Gellert as an apprentice'.

Gellert was a famous dark wizard of the early twentieth century, and it is said that he was most fond of turning his apprentice into a slippery snake or a floppy slug—no one likes to be a slug.

"How long have you been here?" Zheng Qing touched his forehead and shoved the barrel of the Colt Python back into his mind - Zhu Si had been staring at it since just now, with an eager expression. Zheng Qing was worried that she would jump up and grab the barrel of the gun to swing.

There was a look of disappointment on the little witch's face.

"It's been two or three months. She muttered, her face dissipating with disappointment and turning to a little more annoyance: "I came in quietly...... I remember the book saying that the world in the mirror can lead to anywhere...... I'm going to surprise mom and dad. But after coming in, I got a little lost. ”

Speaking of this, she cautiously looked left and right, motioned for Zheng Qing to bend down, and then leaned into the wizard's ear: "They are doing very important magic experiments in a very secret institution! Usually they can only contact ...... through a double-way mirror."

Then she stepped away from the wizard's ear, put her hands behind her back, stepped aside, sighed heavily, and glanced back at the young wizard with pity in her eyes.

"My escape technique is very good," she seemed to cheer herself up, and seemed to comfort Zheng Qing: "You don't have to worry about me...... I think you're the one who needs to be worried. I've never seen a daredevil...... Break a mirror directly after coming in. Don't you know that the worst thing in this world is to break a mirror?"
