Chapter 297: My Childhood Friend Is Split
[Father who is far away in any deep mountain and old forest]
[My experience this year is quite amazing, but because it is really difficult to explain, I will omit all for now.] γ
[Recently, the weather has turned cold, and there have been a few snowfalls, which reminds me of the fact that I recognized Hikaru as a youkai when I first met her.] γ
[You don't want to say that you've forgotten who Hikari is, do you? γ
[It's the daughter of the Rin Hori family, by the way, ......]
[Recently she doubled.] γ
Li Wu crossed out the last line and put the unfinished letter next to his desk.
The appointed time was approaching, and he put on his coat and went downstairs to go out.
As the end of the year approaches, the cold December wind blows across the river along the embankment, causing ripples on the surface of the ice-filled water.
When passing by the door of Guang's house, Li Wu paused for a moment.
No one came out of it.
The scenery on the street doesn't seem to be the same as it was a month ago, except that the city sky now welcomes new passers-by from time to time.
The figure of the girl walked through the tall buildings, attracting the attention of the passers-by, who exclaimed as if they had seen the arrival of celebrities such as popular idols and gathered to each other's landing positions, shouting the name of this existence that has only recently entered the public eye-
"Magical Girl!" "It's a magical girl!" "Magical girl, magical girl! AIeeee!β
Although there seemed to be a strange reaction mixed in, the girl with the purple Hime-style hairstyle skillfully and politely asked everyone to keep their distance and not disturb her work, and then brought up the dwarf creature that looked like a raccoon in front of her.
"Tanuki Kutaro, huh? You became a stray cat to seduce Miyuki, a classmate in the second class of the fifth year of the nearby Ogitan Elementary School, to take him home to cheat on eating and drinking, and also deceived the body of the three-flower cat raised by others! Now the kittens can't find their father, and Miyuki-san is also heartbroken by you, and I'm arresting you on behalf of the Countermeasures Bureau! β
The unknown creature struggled to escape: "We are free to fall in love and break up, and it is the nature of tanuki to be like other things!" You can't do that, it's violent law enforcement! It's a new era now, and the lives of youkai are also fate......"
The tanuki youkai's mouth is choked.
The strange magical girl nodded at Li Wu, who was mixed in the crowd to watch the excitement, and set off a wave of qi before re-ascending into the air, and soon disappeared.
The scene of this episode is close to the subway entrance, and he follows the crowd into the train, and the car loops the news of the recent days in different languages.
"The existence of abnormally high-energy life forms has been frequently observed and confirmed, and some netizens call this series of phenomena 'Reiki Recovery'......"
"Superpowers are always there for us? Isn't the Ninth Public Security Lesson a shadow government that is secretly in power, and has never arranged for a female high school student who can dodge bullets to assassinate potential criminals? Lilia Moriarty speaks out against conspiracy theories......"
"Magical girls are real!"
"A thousand-year-old wizard's castle ...... in the mountains of the Scottish Highlands" "Unknown light and the remains of celestial bodies observed in the Kuiper Belt......"
The screen scrolled with information that could not be understood and recognized in the past, announcing that since the birth of mankind, the cognitive filter wall that divided the extraordinary and the ordinary into two different species has completely collapsed.
For better or for worse, a new world has descended upon the earth.
When the train opened, Li Wu recalled the decisive battle that had passed for more than half a month.
After defeating Lilith, the rest of the things are not difficult.
If the world consciousness can do everything by itself, there is no need to deliberately cultivate him as a tool man.
As a result, the written script completely collapsed after Lilith got involved, and even didn't even save its own survival in the end.
The end result is a new world in front of him, which has been re-set by him.
He wasn't sure if it was the most correct form, but at least there was a chance to correct it if something went wrong later.
By the end of the memory, he had already pushed open the door of the restaurant.
It was like a comic con gathering crowd of people in fancy costumes, and the stout priest quietly crouched on the corner seat, picked up the dessert that seemed so small to him, and threw it into his mouth; The girl with dark circles under her eyes opened her notebook, and in the celebratory atmosphere, she still couldn't escape the fate of hard work; The witch who came in after Li Wu was blocked by the wine she was holding; Many more didn't even notice him entering, still drinking with his companions.
But it was exactly what he thought.
If you still ask him seriously if he wants to establish a religion for him, as he did when he just returned to Earth, it will be even more difficult to know how to react.
So Li Wu concealed his sense of existence and found a few acquaintances at the celebration banquet to say hello.
"I know you want to go to the second floor, let's go, let's go, remember to tell Xiaokui not to think about arresting me back to work! Finally, there are no negative realm monsters, and I don't even have a retirement leave! Is your girlfriend still human!? β
Saying goodbye to Lu Liangxiang, who was lying on the table and pretending to cry, he stepped up the stairs to the innermost room on the second floor, and could hear the sound of conversation coming from inside from a distance.
One is a familiar but slightly different voice.
"If it weren't for the siege, I wouldn't have lost at all!"
"Your elbow has been chopped off."
The other is Hoshikawa Aoi, who is triumphant and has a somewhat arrogant voice.
"Your attack has obviously been completely blocked by me!"
"Your elbow has been chopped off."
"That's because I was attacked after being distracted by you!"
"Well, don't talk about the elbow, you've been slapped in the face, what a miscellaneous fish. Trash fish, trash fish! β
"Die!"
At first, the voices grew more and more irritable, and then there was a crackling sound, as if the table had been knocked over.
"Ahaha, what can you do now? Not only do I want to say, but I also want to record the scene in a book, and make hundreds of millions of copies for everyone to enjoy for free! β
"Goo-kill me!"
Isn't it almost time to go in and stop them?
Li Wu put down his hovering hand, knocked on the door and entered the house.
The woman who looks like a slightly larger light is pressed in humiliation on the sofa in the box, and the excited magical girl rides on her back on one knee, looking like a bad girl who is bullying her senior sister.
Mai Shiratori sat at the table and looked at the two of them helplessly.
Seeing him coming in from the side, Hikari's face froze, and he turned his head and buried his face deep in the sofa.
"Li Wujun arrived before Arisa and Hikatsu."
"They must have gone to buy cakes on the way."
Li Wu looked in the direction of the sofa, "Don't bully her." β
"It's because of this face that you can't bear it......"
Recently, as she said, the countermeasures bureau was rebuilt, and by the way, Hoshikawa Aoi, who had succeeded in taking the position, muttered and reluctantly moved away.
But the otherworldly light still lay there motionless, like an ostrich with its head buried in the yellow sand.
Why did he, who was still in a hostile position not long ago, be sealed and appear at the celebration banquet they held?
She recalls the situation.
In front of you is a vast starry sky, and the magnificent Milky Way flows through the sky like a ribbon of light.
Why, she could see the sky?
Because I lost.
Losing to this world, I lay uselessly on the gray ground.
"Let's do it."
She said calmly to the light that came as she approached.
If she can't get to the world she wants, it's a good idea to leave.
"But I refuse!"
An annoying look appeared on the other party's face, and he crouched down beside her.
"I'm going to use the Brave Heavenly Lock on you to seal your power!"
What is the Brave Sky Lock?
Putting that doubt aside, she thought of more serious consequences.
If the world had been reset as Lilith had promised, everything she had done would now be wiped out to zero, equivalent to never existing.
But if it's the other side that wins, she'll survive and be imprisoned by them.
And just like that, I met him.
This is undoubtedly the ultimate insult.
"No! No! β
Swallowed by fear, the otherworldly light struggled hard, but eventually fell into darkness in vain.
Just like what you see now when you bury your face down in the cushion, don't look at it, don't listen to it, like a beast hiding in a cave, afraid of the light of the outside world.
That's right, nothing is going to pull her out of it!
"Hmm...... Light? β
"What's the matter?"
Two overlapping responses rang out in the room.
Li Wu looked back at the light on the sofa, she looked at the light that had just entered the door with Airisa, silently pulled over the sofa cushion, and buried her face in it again.
It's a shame.
The new Hikaru reached out impatiently to pull her cushion: "It's almost time for you to accept the reality, don't put on this all day long, I'm not such a troublesome guy." β
No, you are, it's the same person.
The others present had a common sentiment.
"The person who won me by sneak attack is not qualified to preach."
In the face of her, the otherworldly light replied directly very unceremoniously, and it was about to develop into another quarrel.
"Lightβ"
Li Wugang, who wanted to dissuade him, spit out the first word and met the eyes of the two people looking at him at the same time, "No, I can't tell you by calling it like this, the big light!" β
"I'm not small!"
"Don't make a mess ...... you just yet"
Li Wu finished dealing with the protest raised by the light of the trumpet and moved in their direction.
Like a frightened cat, the otherworldly light propped up the back of the couch and flipped over, using it as cover between the two.
"Do you hate contact with me so much?"
This move gave him a critical hit.
After the decisive battle, in addition to the fact that there was no way to explain to Yuko why there was an extra person who looked very similar to himself, the light of the other world has been taken home by several other people to take turns to take care of it in the past few days.
Li Wu, on the other hand, was busy repairing the aftermath of the previous battle, and he didn't have time to celebrate the victory until today, so it was actually the first time he had officially met her.
Although it was expected that she must be different from the light she knew, it was still hurtful to see such a strong rejection.
ββ¦β¦ Not a nasty. β
She poked her head out from behind the couch and whispered in embarrassment.
"She felt that she had done something bad, and she could have used the excuse of the new world to continue to deceive herself, but now she won't dare to face Xiao Wu after failure."
The light has nothing to do with himself.
"What do you understand...... Finish? β
He spoke fiercely to the otherworldly light who had never been afraid of punching hard, and looked at Li Wuhou next to him, and his tone was getting weaker and weaker, and he was almost inaudible when he said the last word.
Is it really the same as the light says?
Li Wu walked around to the back of the sofa, and she really jumped up and ran out of the room.
But for the otherworldly light, who has now lost her power, anyone present can easily handle her.
Arisa at the door grabbed her arm with an apologetic face, and Mai Shiratori snapped her fingers, and the otherworldly light that had just run some distance was thrown back into its original position.
The "enemy" who had once caused them a lot of trouble was now lying on the sofa looking extremely weak, her hands making several marks on the round-necked blue sweater that Shiratori Mai had lent her to wear, and her legs wrapped in white cotton socks under the plaid skirt hung down weakly from the edges, looking like a female college student who had been captured by the evil forces.
The leader of the underworld forces slowly approached, and the otherworldly light breathed a little faster, and closed his eyes tightly.
"I'm sorry ......"
There was no expected scolding, and there was a little cold touch on his forehead.
She opened her eyes.
Li Wu picked up a few loose strands hanging in front of him, straightened them again, and then gently placed his palm on her forehead with satisfaction.
"If you want to apologize, you don't apologize to me. You didn't do anything to me, and you didn't get involved in the things of the Unification Society...... And after all, it's light, I've long been used to being cheated by you. β
"What does that mean?"
Hikari felt that he had been shot inexplicably.
"Aren't you angry?"
The otherworldly light pressed the palm of the hand that was about to be detached, and asked timidly.
"Angry."
Li Wu nodded with a straight face, "Some people not only didn't bring me with them as they said before, but after they came back, they joined the villain organization for inexplicable reasons and wanted to reset the world line...... Are you a phoenix? But my pocket watch hasn't stopped, huh? β
He is really difficult to understand the light of this brain circuit.
To say that others deceived the world in order to save the dead childhood sweetheart, but he is alive and well.
"Because I'm not the same as before, and the old me still occupies my place."
Like a tongue twister, the otherworldly light whispered softly.
"Even if the number doubles, it doesn't mean you're not Rinmitsu Hori."
"No, I'm the only real light."
Guang objected dissatisfiedly, and was driven aside by Li Wu with a wave of his hand and sulked.
It is forbidden to interrupt the treatment, and don't stimulate her to blacken back.
"Then can I still be with Xiao Wu?"
She pushed her palms upward, her head rubbing gently against her palms.
"Wait, wait, how did the conversation get from forgiving this guy to here?"
Hoshikawa Aoi and Shiratori Mai sat next to each other, and after some eye contact, it was finally decided that she should speak.
The otherworldly light glared at her with murderous intent.
"You first do what you said before and get forgiveness from the person who should apologize."
Li Wu withdrew his hand and tapped her on the head.
Otherworldly Hikari obediently walked up to Arisa, and the vampire girl showed a confused expression.
"I'm sorry."
She bowed her head, "If I want to take revenge on that arrow, I can accept it at any time." β
"Huh? It recovered very quickly, so it doesn't matter so I don't care...... In other words, should you apologize to me? β
"That's right, I'm the one who gets hurt the most!"
Hikari was dumbfounded by the unexpected plot development.
A closer look at the two battles with the Otherworldly Light reveals that the only thing she did was to punch herself frantically and shoot Arisa at the end.
Shouldn't I apologize to her first?!
"Because I did it to myself, there is no need to apologize."
The otherworldly light coldly avoided her gaze.
"Xiao Wu, I think it is necessary to eliminate evil."
Hikari took out the holy sword seriously, "Evil is slashed!" β
"Leave her alone Xiao Wu, I've already apologized, so can we be together?"
The otherworldly light stared at him as if he was expecting some reward, "Let's leave these people here and go home." β
"Your values really need to be repaired......"
Li Wu touched her head as reassurance, and the otherworldly light narrowed his eyes.
Frankly, it was quite new to see this expression on the light in his older state, so he couldn't help but try a few more times until several extremely dangerous lines of sight converged from all around.
"So you like me when you're older?"
The light of this world clenched the hilt of the sword coldly, "I like the new and hate the old." β
Shiratori Maki is whispering to Hoshikawa Aoi.
"It's too dangerous...... "The point is that she's too aggressive......"
In the days to come, it seems that it will become more troublesome.
Arisa opens the cake she and Hikari had bought for celebration and sighs helplessly at the noise in front of her.
"Everyone, come and toast to victory."
