As a useless person who is too lazy to go out when he can stay at home, Zhixing rarely planned to go out, but was rejected.

And it was Mami who kindly took him in, upheld justice, and was kind-hearted.

Mami didn't answer immediately. Instead, she finished the whole piece of bread in front of her, drank a sip of milk, and then said:

"There are three reasons."

"One is that you are too dangerous."

"Danger?"

"You seem to be much more susceptible to the Witch's Kiss than others, and you are far beyond the witch's range."

"Therefore, my home is the starting point of all patrol routes and is the safest. Even if you are lured out, it will take a long time to reach the witch's location. This will give me some buffer time to rescue her."

Zhixing opened his mouth but couldn't think of how to refute. After all, he was an outsider who had not been eliminated by the desperate survival of the fittest, and he had the record of two Witch's Kiss in front of him.

"The second is to facilitate your plans."

"my plan?"

"Isn't Conan-kun planning to help us? He will definitely need to come into contact with us five magical girls eventually."

"Sayaka Miki, who had a conflict with you yesterday, is also one of them, isn't she? After what happened yesterday, will Sayaka still have any communication with you?"

"Probably, there won't be anything good to say."

"I saw your abilities yesterday, so it would be best if I could bring the magical girls together. What do you think?"

Zhixing scratched his head and turned his eyes away guiltily.

It is difficult to get a socially anxious person to talk things over verbally unless the other party is kind-hearted, not to mention that the two parties are strangers with no connection.

"So, if you're out and I come back with people but you're not there, how can you help us? First impressions are very important, especially for men. Don't leave a bad impression on girls~"

"So, what's the last point?"

Zhixing already knew from Mami's words that he was completely rejected, but the reasons Mami gave were all for Zhixing's own good, which made it impossible for Zhixing to refute unless he denied the settings and plans mentioned before.

Although the two points had convinced Zhixing, he could not guess what the third point was, so he could not help but ask the reason for the refusal.

Mami finished making breakfast, then cleared the plates in front of the dazed Zhixing, and then instead of answering directly, she said.

"Actually, at first I didn't believe you were from the future."

Zhixing looked up at Mami. Although Zhixing knew that Mami would never believe the future setting, he didn't expect her to say it directly.

"Although you claim to be a messenger who can communicate with witches and receive wishes from girls, I've never seen you use this ability, so I don't even believe it."

"Ok??"

Zhixing looked at Mami with an expression of disbelief.

Although, Japanese and Chinese are different. I have always communicated with Mami face to face. I open my mouth, touch my lips, and spit out two or three sounds. This must have happened before.

I have said so many things, is there ever a time when I closed my mouth and left the words untranslated?

"Don't look at me like that. After all, I can't lip-read. To me, you're just speaking Japanese with a foreign accent. I can still understand you."

"You believe it when you say that, don't you?"

"Well, after that, I observed you for a long time before I finally confirmed that you were the messenger of a certain magical girl who had made a wish."

Zhixing listened to Mami's words and couldn't help but touch his ears, trying to make the translated words sound more normal.

The word "messenger" sounds not much different from "familiar". Could Mami really come up with such a slave-related word?

"Then why did you think I wasn't one before? Um, didn't I communicate with the witch when we first met?"

"It seems you really don't understand, even though you know so much information about magical girls."

"Huh? What do you say?"

Mami cleaned up all the kitchen waste, picked up her schoolbag, and took out the garbage to be thrown away today.

He looked at Zhi Xing, or rather his neck, and replied:

"Actually, whether it's a magical girl or someone with the potential to be a magical girl, they can be immune to the control of the witch's kiss of a familiar."

"That's because the body contains magical power, which can counter the magic power of the Witch's Kiss."

Zhixing's expression changed, as if he had thought of something, but Mami's next words interrupted Zhixing's thoughts.

"And ordinary people who enjoy the power of the magical girl's wish and are transformed by the wish as the girl's messenger will also be wrapped in the magical girl's magic power and become immune to the control of the witch's kiss."

Zhixing raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Xingzi's father's behavior was really voluntary. No wonder Xingzi didn't think it was the witch's fault.

"But in addition to the above two situations, there is another situation that is the most common."

"Is there a third option?"

"Although the familiar's witch's kiss is said to be controlled by the witch's magic, what controls the person is actually the despair evoked by the witch's kiss."

"This forced despair will cause this person to be unable to generate the same level of despair again for a long time. In other words..."

"People who have been kissed by the witch's kiss once will not be controlled by the witch's kiss again."

The subsequent answers were posted on the paper, and a doubt in my heart was resolved. No wonder in the world of "Magic Girls" where death may occur at any time, those non-magical girls who know the truth can still live peacefully.

So this is the solution!

Asami opened the door and answered the last question before closing it.

"So, even though you're a messenger and have indeed been controlled by the Witch's Kiss, not only can you still be infected by the Witch's Kiss, but you can also reverse the location. You will be targeted by other magical girls."

"That's all. See you later. Dong~"

Chapter 24 Just a false alarm?

The so-called magic power of magical girls can actually be summarized into two abilities.

Zhixing returned to his room, picked up his notebook, and cautiously recorded the results of his active thinking due to the new information.

The first of these abilities is "Enchantment".

There are two main aspects of enchantment: living things and dead things.

The magical girl, in the name of a girl, exercises magic and can enchant a teenage girl's body, which is still in its developmental stage and has not even reached the height of an adult, by simply using magic power to do the following:

His strength is unknown, but he can at least hold the gun with one hand and ignore the recoil.

The speed is acceptable, just enough to catch up with a pickup truck on the highway;

The defense is probably that he can directly defend against dozens of stories of buildings falling from the sky, but the injuries only make his legs and feet inconvenient;

Endurance is full, as long as the magic power is not stopped, even if the body is covered with bruises;

The regeneration ability is even more powerful. The healing Xiaolan can even recover from a bone-breaking injury in seconds.

The jumping ability is also calculated in units of floors. In normal times, it can jump two or three floors, but in wartime, it is basically like flying.

His reaction speed is unknown, and it is within the range of ordinary people. His reaction in wartime is impossible to judge, but Xiao Hei can be accurate to the second.

His combat awareness has leaped from a child to a weapon master, and he has mastered the techniques of chopping, slashing, and turning around without any instruction.

The mental strength is enough to conduct long-range telepathy, at least the distance between the tops of two buildings is not difficult;

Its attention span surpasses that of ordinary computers, and it can run dozens of processes simultaneously, fighting against many opponents at once and distracting others.

Adaptability reaches a pure body, all germs and diseases are eliminated, and negative conditions are also extremely resistant;

The computing power is even greater, and the mobile target can calculate multiple trajectories in real time, and each attack is equivalent to the precise prediction of the employee sniper;

According to the paper's understanding, magical girls have never directly enchanted other living people. At most, they consume magic power outside the body and serve as a heat source to maintain body temperature.

The more powerful enchantment ability, and also the most important combat power, is the enchantment of inanimate objects.

First, the capabilities of the original props can be further enhanced, and you can even directly enchant your own magic power!

Magic power flows freely to shape the body, and then the magic power is enchanted to materialize the corresponding weapon.

Therefore, the weapons made by magical girls can be big or small, long or short, and it is even possible to attack with magic power alone.

Moreover, the magic power of some magical girls can even give life to dead things!

Therefore, it can be said that becoming a magical girl is like leaping from a human to a superhuman!

And there are no middlemen between ordinary people and magical girls to make a profit from the price difference. Those who have power have power, and those who don’t have power at all. The gap in strength is huge.

This means that in this world there is no room for power growth, and there is no channel to study and work hard to defeat the witch. It is a world where strength is determined purely by a girl's talent.

Although Zhixing just learned the information about this real-life world from Mami.

The object of the magical girl's wish is actually the effect of the magical girl's magic enchantment.

Given the versatility of magical girls' magic, it can indeed be used as a universal wish-granting machine, but the girls' knowledge level is insufficient, and they are unable to achieve the corresponding results with the least amount of magic power.

So, what happens after the girl's sacrifice? Will the magical enchantment brought by this wish disappear?

What if it's a witch?

Zhixing knew that Mami's understanding of the witch herself was basically summarized from the information told by Kyubey.

As a woman who has to rely on herself for everything from going to school to doing homework to patrolling to fighting and living her life, Mami doesn't have the time to investigate and research and distinguish the truth from the false. As long as the result is in line with her expectations, it's fine.

Therefore, Zhixing does not believe that the so-called witch will forcibly "evoke the body's despair" so that the next witch has nothing to evoke, and thus the control fails.

However, if the beneficiary of the wish has the magical protection of the magical girl, they can ignore the control.

The victims of the Witch's Kiss were actually protected by the magic power left behind by the Witch's Kiss.

Even if the witch has been destroyed and the magic power has been eaten into the stomach, it cannot be retained. Therefore, the magic power of the witch's kiss is likely to remain in the victim's body.

Or... above the soul?

Zhixing was concentrating on thinking and didn't even touch his phone.

As a result, when Zhixing came to his senses, the setting sun had already shone into the hall from the balcony.

"Huh? Why is it getting dark so quickly? Isn't it winter in this world when the days are shorter and the nights are longer?"

Zhixing touched his stomach, which was hungry but he didn't dare to disturb his thoughts, and picked up his phone to check the time.

“2012年5月24号土曜日(周四)17:07”

"Huh? Mami should be out of school by now, right? She's already taken the subway around the city, right?!"

Without caring about the missed lunch, Zhixing ran from the room to the hall and headed straight for the door.

"bump!"

An adult body that has not been exercised cannot open a locked door.

Zhi Xing, who was knocked to the ground by the recoil, felt hungry and dizzy, and the world in his eyes began to turn into a black and white TV with a little mosaic.

Relying on his rich experience with anemia, Zhixing lay on the ground for a while before he barely stood up and looked at the door that trapped him.

It was an ordinary door, the kind with a chain on the inside, like those in old anime.

If Zhixing hadn't tried it before, I would never have thought that this door could trigger the projection keyboard and require a password to open it.

Zhixing has seen Mami open the door several times, but has never seen her enter the password. Therefore, it has always been Mami who leads her out of the room. This is also the reason why Zhixing has to report the purpose of his trip to Mami in the morning.

Zhixing stood in front of the door slowly, touched every possible part of the door, but still couldn't open it.

"I knew that Xiaolan had not left her phone number and therefore could not contact Mami, but I was so stupid as to make such a low-level mistake."

The paper shop was so anxious that it rummaged around, trying to find some tools to pry the door open.

But faced with those locked doors inside the room, and the rooftop where it was impossible to tell which floor it was on.

After an hour of hard work, the paper shop still had a lunch that was as hot as the one they had had the hour before.

After Zhixing calmed down, he realized that his cell phone was bought by Mami, so Mami had her own phone number.

And Mami was always around, and when she was not around, she was at school, so there was no way she would ask for my phone number like that.

It was already past dinner time, but Mami hadn't called or returned home.

There is a high probability that the plot has reached the point where Mami, the ceiling of combat power, has to be eliminated, thus giving the protagonists time to develop.

Zhixing only confirmed that Xiaolan did not become a magical girl, otherwise he would not have told her the riddle.

However, the paper industry has not confirmed whether Madoka is a magical girl. Therefore, even if the senior leaves now, it is not impossible for Madoka to become a magical girl.

After all, the paper industry is the variable.

But now, Paper Line, the variable, is trapped in Mami's apartment.
