Watching the anime from Madoka Magica and writing the rules

Although the entire team was destroyed because of Sayaka's collapse, before the collapse, Anzi and Sayaka were still able to become friends.

"So, is it Sayaka's problem again?"

Zhixing sighed inwardly, regretting again that he shouldn't have forced Sayaka to become a magical girl so quickly.

But it's too late now.

The paper industry can only hope that its performance on the spot will not be so bad, and the rest depends on fate.

After breakfast, I went back to my room while there was still time and wrote down the sentence "Sayaka Miki cannot become a magical girl" in my notepad.

The morning passed quickly and it was noon in the blink of an eye.

Mami led the paper company to the restaurant first, ordered the dishes, and waited for Xingzi to arrive.

Zhi Xing looked at Mami who was sitting next to him and was a little uncomfortable for a moment. He asked awkwardly:

"We'll just wait here. Don't we need to go pick up Xingzi?"

"Well, we can just wait here. After all, magical girls don't always come and go in certain ways in the city."

"Oh, wouldn't that be a waste of magic power?"

"You won't understand how strong a magical girl's body can be, even without a transformation."

"Hey, are you saying bad things about me as soon as you come in?"

The girl, dressed in casual clothes, dropped her backpack unhappily and sat down opposite the two men.

"Sorry, just remembering when we first met."

"That's just chasing the witch. It's a special situation, a special situation!"

"But I've never seen you come here in any other way."

"That's because I haven't left since I came here, and Satomi Takihara wasn't that far away back then."

As soon as they met, the two people who had not seen each other for a long time started chatting, and Zhixing was confused.

Didn’t you say you came here for my business? It turns out I’m just a third wheel.

Fortunately, Xingzi hadn't forgotten why she came here. She quickly turned to look at the paper company and said:

"Is this the weirdo you mentioned?"

"Conan-kun just has a special physique, so he is easily attracted to the Witch's Kiss."

"Eh~ I can't tell at all. I'm saying, you're not being fooled, are you?"

Based on her own experience in society and meeting people, Xingzi could not see any signs of despair from Zhixing. It would be better to say that he was just an older-looking student who did not have the aura of a sophisticated professional.

"Well, you're right, so why did I lie to Asami?"

When the topic came to him, Zhixing quickly responded, fearing that he would not be able to get a word in again.

"Who cares about you? Stop interrupting."

"I'm not as kind as Mami. I'm just an ordinary person begging for our protection. You should have some self-awareness and recognize your position!"

Anzi didn't care about Zhixing's thoughts at all, or rather, since they were not both magical girls, Anzi no longer intended to care about other people.

After all, Anzi used to work in a church, and she had done a lot to help and protect ordinary people. Now she has basically cut off all ties with the past. If it weren't for Mami, Anzi would not believe what happened to Zhixing.

"It's up to you to tell whether I've been deceived or not. That's why I called you here."

"Hey, isn't this obviously a lie to get protection? Maybe the so-called control is just a drawing with some ink, and then a show for you. How could such a thing happen in a witch's kiss without a familiar present?"

"So, to dispel this doubt, why don't you come back and stay for a few days?"

Mami probably felt Anzi's attitude, and compared to the conflict when they just broke up, there is not as much estrangement now.

"I'm very busy. I can't let others take over the position of the Witch of Kazamino."

"But since you're treating me, I can still help you this time."

Xingzi looked at the food on the table and asked while eating:

"So, how can I help you?"

"There are some things about Conan that I haven't told you yet, and one of them is Paper Walker's ability as a messenger."

"Messenger? Oh, so he's the one the magical girl wishes for, right? So, his ability is to attract witches?"

"Conan-kun is from abroad, so he doesn't actually know Japanese. It's only because of his ability that we can communicate normally."

"The ability you are talking about, is it..."

"Yes, although according to the performance, it should be possible to translate other people's words, and also translate your own words."

"But as far as I know, this translation can also turn what the other person says into words that you can understand."

"Ah, is there such a thing?"

After being scolded by Anzi, Zhixing was planning to hand over everything to Mami, but ended up hearing things he didn't even understand.

"Well, I prefer the cool expressions of magical girls, so I also chose a lot of resounding names, such as Final Blow and Emissary."

"What?"

"Conan-kun, what does it sound like I'm saying?"

"Uh, a finishing blow? Messenger? Are those not the exact words I heard?"

Asami didn't explain, but looked at Kyoko.

"I see. You don't really know how to translate, you're just pretending to translate."

"Come to think of it, so this is what TiroFinale means. Isn't it just a translation into a foreign language?"

"Tiro Finale? Oh, this one."

I read it twice before I remembered that this was Mami's voice...dubbing.

Kyoko and Asami looked at each other and sighed:

"It is indeed very similar. It is indeed very similar to my father's past abilities."

"But, it seems like there's basically no infectious power. If I can just understand and express what someone means, then it's like telepathy."

"This is the second unusual point, Conan-kun. Close your eyes and feel it."

"Huh? Hey, hey, hey, what's going on? I feel like I'm dead!"

While eating lunch, Xingzi reached out and held her gem, trying it briefly, but was so shocked by the result of her perception that she put down the spoon.

The magical girl's perception is not affected by vision, so even if she is outside the witch's barrier, she can roughly know the movement of magic power and the battle situation inside.

What is more important is the position of ordinary people.

The witch is in the maze of the barrier. Because the magical girl has not used magic, she cannot find her. She can only keep exploring the maze to meet the witch.

If an ordinary person is brought into the maze, he will often be pulled directly to the witch's side.

Therefore, the magical girl can rush to the location of ordinary people faster, so as to quickly eliminate the witch and rescue her.

However, even though he was right in front of her, Xingzi could not feel the aura emitted by Zhixing, nor could she transmit telepathy to him.

It's as if...Zhi Xing lives in another barrier space different from the witch's.

ps: Time travel itself is the biggest cheat.

Chapter 35 Dealing with the Open Hands

Mami waited a moment, allowing Kyoko to fully perceive the situation before voicing her doubts:

"Normally, magical girls can only sense the reactions of ordinary people under the contrast of a witch's barrier. Since they are surrounded by witches' magical reactions, it's not that difficult."

"After leaving the barrier, a magical girl's ability to perceive people will quickly diminish, but we are no longer novices who have just started learning magic. Although the range may not be as far as the barrier, it should not be so close that we cannot perceive it."

"I've thought of many reasons, but the most likely one is Conan's role as the magical girl's messenger."

"Unlike me who's all alone, you, Xingzi, have more experience in this area, so I'd like to know your opinion."

Zhixing's eyelids jumped when he heard this, and he looked at Xingzi who was staring at him.

Is this something that can be said?

Wasn't this the reason you had your falling out before? So is directly exposing someone's sore spot really something Mami would say?

For a moment, Zhixing wondered if he had been kissed by the witch again, and reflexively took out his cell phone and looked at his neck.

Kyoko took in everything, but she didn't say anything, nor did she react as Kazuyuki had expected. Instead, she responded to Mami:

"Well, that's certainly the case. Those wrapped in magical girls' wishes have a much lower presence than others."

"Just like the sound of the breeze or water dripping from leaves when you walk, these are feelings that will be ignored."

"But this is the first time I've seen something like this, where a normal building is penetrated by magical perception without causing any reaction."

"If he has such a special physique, then what you said is somewhat possible, but why is it like this? Since you called me here, you should have some clues."

After Xingzi told him what she knew about the messenger, she started eating the lunch in front of her again.

"This brings us to Conan-kun's third difference."

Mami paused, considered it, and then said:

"According to Conan, he comes from the future after my death."

"Death? You? What's going on? I've never heard of such a thing."

Anzi stopped eating again and looked at Mami who was sitting there finishing her lunch.

"Can magical girls get sick? Or is there a witch who uses poison?"

Mami didn't say anything, but instead guided Kyoko's gaze to look at the paper line.

Zhixing swallowed unconsciously, but still took over the conversation:

"It's the witch. Witches are inherently dangerous, aren't they? So it's normal for them to defeat her. After all, the most famous Asami didn't even show up at the battle scene with the witches on Witch Night. Is there any other possibility?"

"This is just a guess, right? Do you believe it, Mami?"

"It's a little different from what I first heard. There's obviously not much time left. Can't you explain it more clearly, Conan-kun?"

The sudden pressure from the two of them caught Paper Shop, who was just there to act as a light bulb, off guard.

While I was thinking about what I had said before, the scene suddenly fell silent.

But Xingzi didn't give Zhixing too much time to be silent.

"Ah~ I couldn't come back up right away. So, it seems like I was lying. Now, I'm probably trying to come up with a reason to stay alive."

"I've seen many people like this who, knowing the existence of witches, are so scared that they try every possible way to stay around magical girls."

"Given your personality, it's quite unusual that only one guy like you appears in such a long time."

Mami didn't reply, but continued to wait for Zhixing's explanation.

Seeing that he was about to make a bad first impression, Zhi Xing didn't care about what he had said before and improvised:

"Well, actually I know everything. The reason for Mami's death, and the reason for the death of another magical girl who is not here. But I'm not sure if this future will still happen under the current circumstances."

"I thought you were going to say something, but that's what you said? You just couldn't come up with something on the spot, so you found an excuse to postpone the explanation. That's the kind of thing..."

"I also know the cause of Sakura Kyoko's death!"

After being refuted, Zhixing subconsciously interrupted Xingzi, and then realized what he had said.

"I can't pretend I didn't hear that."

"Are you looking for death?"

Xingzi's expression changed, and her gaze at the paper line seemed to be filled with magic.

After Zhixing realized what was happening, he subconsciously wanted to shut his mouth while thinking about Xingzi's taboo.

I thought of three ways of Anzi's death from the fan fiction, the TV ending, and the if line.

Suddenly I realized that there seems to be nothing that cannot be said.

So the paper industry got tough and responded with a desperate response:

"What I said is all true. If you want to know, I can also tell you the cause of your death."

"Tell me, I won't simply trust your future like Asami."

Zhixing nodded, took a deep breath, and then said:
