"So, where will Makoto Naegi end up?"

Nigui looked at the safe and sound Apacha and immediately realized that he might have misunderstood Zhixing, but how could he say it out loud at this time?

So Nigui quickly turned around and walked outside.

"I'm going to go find the guy who can't jump to the roof yet, and we'll talk later."

Ma Jianxing shook his head and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he looked in the direction where Shi Yu had disappeared and whispered:

"It's been so long, and the elder hasn't come yet. Could it be that the elder is out again? I better go over and take a look."

After saying that, Ma Jianxing also jumped up and flew towards the mountains in the room which also belonged to Liangshanpo.

Only Apacha was left standing there with a confused look on his face. He looked around with some grievance, hoping that Cheng would come out soon.

"Dingling bell~"

As the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Kenichi once again had no intention of joining the club. Instead, he quickly walked out of the school for the competition that was only a few days away. He greeted Miyu at the school gate, and then they headed towards Liangshanpo together.

"...Kenichi..."

But before they could walk far, a voice called Kenichi from behind.

Kenichi instinctively looked in the direction of the voice, and a man wearing glasses appeared before him. He touched his glasses and asked Kenichi with a puzzled look:

"Now...what is the year, month, day, hour, and minute?"

Chapter 198 Am I...already dead?

"Well, it's Monday, January 7th, and school has just ended."

Kenichi initially answered the question with some confusion, then looked at the man in front of him with a questioning look and asked:

"Is there something you need help with? Do you need help, Mr. Naegi?"

Makoto Naegi...Zhixing was still looking at his location in a daze, feeling the gaze being constantly translated, and his attention was obviously not focused.

But soon, as if everything goes to extremes, Zhixing shuddered all over, feeling that the convergence of attention was once again blocked by the witch's magic. While digesting the unread messages, he looked at Kenichi and Miu and said:

"January 7th?" Zhi Xing thought for a moment, realizing he wasn't familiar with dates here. He shook his head and asked again, "When was the last time we met?"

This time, it wasn't Kenichi who answered the paper line, but Miu who was watching from the side:

"The last time I saw you was this morning when I started preparing breakfast and lunch boxes. I confirmed that Mr. Naegi was still resting in his room. Is the injury on your hand really healed?"

As Mi Yu spoke, she moved closer and looked carefully at Zhi Xing's not-so-white hands. She did not see the baby-skin color of the wound that had just healed. It was as if the previous wound was just an illusion.

Even with Miyu's common sense, which seemed strange to normal people, she couldn't explain what happened to Zhixing.

Zhixing also stretched out his hand and turned it under Miyu's gaze, also looking at his body.

"Is it...afternoon already?"

After taking a good look, Zhixing concluded that he didn't find anything special about the appearance, so he closed his eyes and recalled his previous memories.

Just as Zhixing expected, there is no power in this world that can invade the witch's barrier.

Even though this world is considered a world of high martial arts in its later stages, it still does not have the ability to break the void. Therefore, Zhixing was very well-behaved and turned into a doll whose appearance was unknown in the witch's room.

Then Zhi Xing felt that he had lost control of his body. He was picked up by the witch and taken to the doll tower in the inner room.

After squeezing out the guy standing in the middle of the third row, the witch admired the five dolls on the doll tower for a while, then returned to the hall and devoted herself to the tireless work of repairing her familiar.

As for Zhi Xing, he stayed on the doll tower, unable to blink, unable to change posture, and without any other sense except touch, and without any other thoughts or thinking, and spent an unknown amount of time.

Then, as if he had kept his eyes open for too long, his cotton-like eyes became sore, and Zhi Xing felt his vision become blurred, with the illuminated areas and shadows mixed together in a flat surface, unable to distinguish between near and far.

Then, with the blink of an eye, Zhixing arrived outside the gate of the school.

Zhi Xing shook his head, dispelling the fleeting memories, and spoke in a tone that still seemed to be in a trance:

"Take me... back... I want to... find a quiet place... to rest..."

"Are you okay, Mr. Naegi? Let me help you!"

Kenichi immediately walked over, put Zhixing's arm on his shoulder, and helped Zhixing walk towards Liangshanpo.

Fortunately, Kenichi has been exercising these days.

So even though Zhixing was older than Kenichi and didn't put in much effort to cooperate, Kenichi was still able to adjust his posture and lead Zhixing forward at a speed no slower than that of an ordinary person walking.

Miu, who was standing by, wanted to help, but since this was the school gate after all, she didn't want to stand out. Therefore, Miu, who had specially put on a pair of decorative glasses, saw that Kenichi could carry it, so she followed behind him and said to Kenichi:

"We still have other training in the afternoon, so it would be better to conserve your energy."

"We'll take it to a deserted place later, and I'll carry it, Kenichi."

Kenichi followed the pace of the paper line instinctively, and said as he walked step by step:

"It's okay. Compared to Master Qiu Yu sitting in the back, Mr. Naegi is still very light."

"Ahhh! I didn't mean to say that about you. I'm sorry."

After Kenichi said this, he realized that his words seemed a bit inappropriate to Naegi, and he apologized immediately.

"keep going."

Zhixing didn't bother to deal with such a small problem. Instead, he used his free hand to press down on his head and patted it.

Have I escaped from this predicament inexplicably again?

Or was I brought here by the witch's barrier and then airdropped out?

It always feels like too much of a coincidence.

It's understandable, right? A witch's power can't defeat a passive skill that can restore the body?

But it seems that I can maintain my demonized form for a certain period of time.

Is this also a power that can be utilized?

Zhixing could feel that after he translated the unread messages at the school gate one by one, his head was filled with doubts, but the witch's magic blocked the sight of others, and no one understood.

Therefore, Zhixing couldn't wait to find a quiet place where he wouldn't be disturbed, so that he could start thinking while his doubts were still fresh in his mind.

So after a few minutes, Zhixing recovered from the state of having to be supported to the point where he could keep up with Kenichi's pace normally.

Then he even urged Jianyi to run faster so that he could escort him back to Liangshanpo.

As a result, Kenichi, who had only been practicing for a few days, ran forward at a speed faster than Zhixing, an adult.

In response to this, Zhixing showed a hint of envy, but then thought of his current physical condition.

He couldn't help but face the reality and followed the two of them with a slightly lost expression.

Under Miu's leadership, Kenichi and the Paper Company successfully returned to Liangshanpo.

"Appa! Makoto-kun, I finally got you back! Hurry... huh? What's wrong, Makoto?"

As soon as they returned to the door of the gym and before they could open it, they saw Apache jump from the yard and cross the two-person-high wall, and came behind Zhixing. He first patted Zhixing's shoulder with an excited look on his face. However, when he was halfway through his words, Apache saw Zhixing's wandering eyes, and even Apache felt that something was wrong with Zhixing.

"Mr. Naegi..."

Seeing this, Miyu explained to Apacha in a low voice, and while Miyu was explaining to Apacha, Zhixing had already asked Kenichi to open a side door and return to Liangshanpo.

After stepping into the gym, Zhixing regained some strength, and he left Kenichi's assistance and walked towards his room.

Kenichi looked at Zhixing's departing figure and couldn't help muttering:

"It seems that Mr. Naegi looks very tired. Has the training finally started?"

"No, Makoto-kun hasn't been seen since he did that thing this morning. Appa has been looking for him for a long time."

"What is that thing?" Miyu asked Apacha with a puzzled look on her face.

"Listen to me, Miyu-chan. This morning, Cheng-kun said he would take us to a place where we could fight. Then, Cheng-kun suddenly disappeared! Then, he suddenly appeared in front of me and took me to a room."

"Apacha walked for a long time and didn't see anyone else, but I found Shigure-chan's stuff! Look, look!"

Apacha took out a few darts from his pocket, as well as other darts made of paper, and shared them with the two protagonists excitedly.

"Ah, this is it!"

With the keen eyesight gained from years of martial arts training, Meiyu immediately found the map she had thrown out among the paper darts, and immediately took it to confirm it.

Kenichi also came over and saw the unfolded map.

"This route is... ah, it's where I first met Mr. Naegi! Why did it appear in Apache's hands? Weren't we able to find it then?"

"Apache doesn't know either. There are traces of bullets fired there. It must be a place used for shooting training."

Apacha added innocently.

"Bullet?!"

Although Kenichi was still a little confused, the reputation of Bullet was still deeply rooted in people's hearts. Therefore, at this moment, Kenichi labeled the image of Paper Bank as a mafia.

"Well, I remember that Mr. Naegi came here on purpose. Could he be seeking refuge?"

Meiyu was obviously unaware of Zhixing's specialness. In Meiyu's opinion, Zhixing was just an ordinary person who heard about Liangshanpo from somewhere and came here to avoid the limelight under the pretext of curing an illness.

Although Zhixing injured Master Qiuyu's hands in the name of superpowers, they recovered as good as new the next day.

But in Miyu's opinion, some special medicines can also achieve this effect.

After all, the injuries on those hands were not serious, and Qiuyu did not use too much force. They would heal on their own in a few days. It was still possible to recover with the help of fast-acting medicine, which was at least more acceptable than superpowers.

"Ah! Could it be that Mr. Naegi disappeared this morning because he was found by his enemies and beaten, which is why he seems to be unable to move? In that case, Mr. Naegi... I'll go check it out!"

Although the competition in a week was imminent, Kenichi couldn't help his instinct. After wasting training time to help Zhixing back, he wasted training time again and walked towards Zhixing's room.

"Kenichi-kun."

When Miyu saw Kenichi's actions, she was immediately inspired by him and ran towards the paper shop's room together.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Heavy footsteps echoed in the corridor.

Kenichi quickly arrived at the paper shop's room, casually called out "Mr. Naegi!" and opened the door.

Hearing the noise coming from outside the door, Zhixing instinctively looked over. After finding that it was Kenichi, he retracted his gaze and looked back at the other person in the room who did not turn back.

The invincible superman, the elder of Liangshanpo, Hayato of Fenglin Temple.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Elder."

"Wow, I've long wanted to see what the witch you mentioned looks like. This is exactly what I want."

The elder looked at Zhixing with a smile on his face, his eyes sparkling. He then tilted his head and looked at Kenichi, who had noticed him and was greeting him, and asked Zhixing:

"So, do you want me to wait for you for a moment? Kenichi seems to want to see you about something."

"No need to wait. I won't have any urgent matters here, so it's okay to come back and listen. I want to confirm the situation with the witch."

"Really? Sorry, Ha Kenichi, I'll need you later. I have to run some errands with Makoto Naegi first."

The elder said as he placed his hand on Zhixing's shoulder.

Zhixing closed his eyes, adjusted his thoughts, and just came out, calling the little bear again.

Soon, under the watchful eyes of Kenichi and Miu, Zhixing and the elder disappeared from the room without a trace in the blink of an eye, with Kenichi blocking the door.

"ah!!!"

Kenichi let out a scream of surprise, even louder than when he saw Apache hit the sandbag. He even sat down on the ground, staring at the empty room in front of him with his mouth wide open.

"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly yelling?"

Qiuyu was waiting for Kenichi, who was already late, in the backyard and was thinking about whether he should intensify the training. When he heard Kenichi's call, he immediately rushed over.

Kenichi had a grin on his face and pointed at the room where Zhixing was staying temporarily with a trembling hand. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't utter a single word.

Qiu Yu looked at Miyu, who was also terrified but had only taken a few steps back, and asked:

"What's wrong? Did something happen to Naegi Makoto?"

Qiu Yu came to the door and looked at the layout of the room, but he couldn't see anything that would make Kenichi afraid.

"Mr. Naegi...Mr. Naegi and Grandpa were here just now, and then they suddenly disappeared! Kenichi was at the door just now, so it shouldn't be that Grandpa ran away with everyone? But why did they suddenly disappear?"

Qiu Yu touched his chin, quickly sorted out the situation, and then explained to the two of them openly:

"It's okay. If nothing unexpected happens, their disappearance should be due to Makoto Naegi's superpowers."

"Super...superpowers? Do they really...exist?"

After knowing that it was not a ghost, Kenichi felt relieved, and then asked in disbelief.
