Watching the anime from Madoka Magica and writing the rules

The [Disciplinary Officer] explained to the [Bosozoku] seriously.

"But... no one has seen Kyubey anymore, right?"

The programmer, who had the weakest personality, spoke up.

Everyone present fell silent in the face of this fact, but at the same time, they were all expecting Zhihang to appear from the cafeteria door. Although no one said it explicitly, no one dared to act alone, including the "Young Master" who wanted to read after exploring the study.

However, the paper bank transaction did not occur, but Monokuma's night time broadcast came as expected.

As the cafeteria was closed, everyone was forced to return to their dormitories.

Zhixing followed the weakest programmer and saw him clench his fists and take the laptop computer sent from the second floor out of the drawer of the room.

Then he took out the toolbox in his room and started to survive in his own way.

Seeing the other person staying up late to work on the computer, Zhixing couldn't help but ask:

"Although you all signed a contract with [Despair], that contract will eventually expire. That's why I can see the shadow of [Baseball Player] among the school referees."

"So... if you can hear me, you can start preparing now... prepare for your deal with me."

Chapter 315: Make a Wish to Kyubey

Zhixing stood next to the [Programmer], watching him concentrate on disassembling the laptop in front of him, trying to restore it from its unusable state.

He was obviously not paying much attention, but he acted as if he was turning a deaf ear to Zhixing's words, as if they were in two different worlds.

But Zhixing knew very well that these were not two worlds, but were indeed in the same impression space.

Touching the tabletop with a clear sense of texture, Zhixing knew that everything in front of him was not a projection of reality.

"Looking at you, it reminds me of the [Super High School Level Hacker] I encountered last time."

"Although I haven't actually witnessed him use his Hacker abilities, judging by the script, they're capable of influencing a nation."

"Independent, autistic, underdeveloped, with astigmatism, but a woman who was able to use her influence to single-handedly establish a temple and turn it into her own persona..."

"Female...?"

The programmer, who had already checked the external hardware and started adjusting it, finally responded.

"Yes, although the local [thugs], [models], [painters], [young ladies], [student council presidents], [detectives], and [investigators] are not particularly outstanding, only that [hacker] is truly a super high school level."

"So... being a woman is not an excuse to avoid your own weakness."

Zhixing watched as the [Programmer] stopped what he was doing and turned around to look at him, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Because if simply talking can't bring about a change, then physical contact might be necessary.

It’s not like anything big would happen if there was physical contact. After all, the [programmer] in front of him was a girl wearing a skirt on the surface, but actually a little boy.

However, since "Dangan 1" has been developed according to the virtual death of "Dangan 2", it is natural to pay attention to the issue of physical contact.

The fate that Xiaoyan said cannot be changed has a condition that is still unclear, such as physical contact.

Although from the experience of Zhixing so far, it seems that fate cannot be changed even without physical contact.

Even in the past two days, in order to try to deceive the world, Paper Walker first contacted the [Idol] and brought it into the impression space, and then contacted the [Baseball Player] at the execution scene and exchanged it with the shadow.

Although Zhixing learned about cognitive shadows, where a mere toy gun could cause huge damage, he had a rough estimate of the consequences of suffering a blow in reality.

But at the same time, the [idol] and [baseball player] fell into coma one after another, and Zhixing was not sure whether it was just a deception caused by contact and that he could not escape the predetermined fate.

As the victim and murderer of the second case, if you want to avoid the murderer's death, you naturally cannot avoid contact with him.

But it is still possible for the victim to disguise himself through cognitive existence.

Having a contactless victim is still very important for the paper industry.

"I already knew about that kind of thing."

"Eh?"

"Because I've also been following the admissions process at Hope's Peak Academy, I'm well aware that there are just as many outstanding women as men."

"In fact, if you don't include me, half of the sixteen students in our class are women."

"Do you know the identity of Despair? Are you truly the shadow of the Programmer, and not just a perception created by the audience?"

The paper company frowned. After all, coming here to conduct transactions was in line with Shenzuo Deru's idea of ​​going with the flow during his business trip.

Although the two years of amnesia cannot be used as part of the deal, Zhihang can still reach the other party's deal through the development of the script.

And although there is less chance to use amnesia to get a free transaction, it is much easier to get a contract by trading with shadows than with real people.

Once Zhixing can master the method of using the cognitive world to make contracts with other people, he will have the decisive power to create a group of phantom thieves and change their hearts.

And if the target of the heart change is Kyubey, whose memory and cognition are as one, I believe that with the power of P5, the problem of Madoka Magica can be fundamentally solved, and then...the principle of the circle will no longer appear.

Huh? Was that my original plan?

Zhixing's attention was distracted, and his thoughts drifted to the side. Unfortunately, the [Programmer] interrupted his thoughts at the right time:

"If I'm the one who's going to be killed next, then I'll have no choice but to make a deal with you."

"I knew she could be so kind as to leave the computer on the second floor."

"If I'm really given enough time to write the program, I'm confident I can take control of the school."

"Really? I remember in the other ending, you were supposed to be able to discover the motive behind Monokuma's intention to leave it for you from within his body. That motive would come from your research results two years later."

Zhixing recalls the two extra stories after the five-person survival ending of "Dangan 1".

One is the Love Island mode where everyone collects bond stories, and the other is the IF line story where there is no cannibalism and everyone relies on the protagonist Makoto Naegi's [luck] to survive for a month.

Because I know that there is a certain possibility that the fan fiction settings will exist in the real-life world.

The paper company also took a special look at it.

At least during that month, this [programmer] did not do anything special except discovering the Easter egg hidden by Monokuma. According to Monokuma, this Easter egg was even reserved for the [programmer] who was lucky enough to be one of the five survivors.

From this, it can be seen that [Despair] does not care about [Programmer]'s performance after getting his special weapon, and naturally he will not make any special arrangements.

Speaking of special weapons for talented people, Zhixing couldn't help but think of the "bosozoku" in the IF line who were threatened by a black and white bear. After getting the modified motorcycle placed in their own execution ground, they could move freely among the black and white bears.

Although it can't defeat the dump truck exclusive to the other world.

Zhi Xing shook his head, pulling himself back to the present moment after being distracted once again, and then said to the [Programmer]:

"I know you are very confident in your talents, and I also know that you have retained the talents and experience you have continuously developed and cultivated over the past two years as a Shadow."

"But you are only the you of two years ago. Are you really sure that you can achieve the same results as a programmer and develop them two years later by yourself?"

Facing Zhihang's question, the programmer quickly adjusted his computer to its proper position, then smiled sweetly and confidently said to Zhihang:

"I still have you."

"Although for me, who lacks two years of practical experience, it may take a while for me to master my own design."

"But only if I have the opportunity to perceive and connect with it, then my own talents that have grown will not be buried due to amnesia."

"If I had to estimate, I think... in about a week, I would be able to catch up to the current level with a direction."

"One week....hmm!!"

Zhixing calculated the time and suddenly realized that after this computer carrying the AI ​​of [Programmer] was linked to the computer, it indeed experienced the fourth case in 4 days and the fifth case in 3 days. Only with the help of [Lucky] did he barely destroy the execution scene and save [Lucky].

As for the time of accessing the network and the situation where the person being punished does not appear when he is not [lucky], these are probably the uncertain factors.

Zhi Xing looked at the smiling face of the "Programmer," then shifted his gaze to see the other person's talent for programming without any delay in blind typing. He couldn't help but sigh and asked:

"It sounds like you're capable of saving everyone, so what's the deal you're forced to make?"

The programmer kept tapping the keyboard with both hands, put his index finger on his cheek, and said with his head tilted:

"I heard from the Baseball Player that you possess some power that allows you to transcend the world of perception. It was that power that allowed you to save the Idol, right?"

"I'm really concerned about how many days I have left to create my own AI, but even if I knew the date, I wouldn't be able to translate it into reality."

"So... Kyubey-kun, are you okay with any kind of deal? Even if it's a bit whimsical and unrealistic, can you make it happen?"

Zhi Xing looked at the girl on the other side, who was in line with her identity setting, coming to ask Kyubey to make a wish. She began to talk nonsense with vigilance:

"Make a wish? Make a wish to me? Do you still want to become a magical girl?"

"Stop messing around with that fake gender. If you're asked to be a girl, then you're a girl. Regardless of your age or gender, you've already surpassed the standard of a junior high school girl!!"

Faced with Zhixing's argument of using the setting of another world, the programmers who live in the world of the anime "Madoka Magica" naturally don't understand it very well.

Although he didn’t understand the content, the programmer still understood a little bit:

"So, even if it's a wish that exceeds the limits of ordinary people, you can still achieve it?"

"Magical girl, I think I'd qualify as a junior high school girl."

"You...you...could it be..."

Because at this time, Kazuyuki is using the strategy of "Steins;Gate", trying to change his fate by imitating "Dangan 2" while not destroying the Impossible Man's experiment, so that Kamijou Izuru will not make things difficult for him, and he can successfully meet the conditions to leave this world.

Therefore, when I heard that Chihiro Fujisaki, the programmer who was supposed to be a man dressed as a woman, felt that she met the requirements of a magical girl, my first reaction was that she was also the man in "Steins;Gate" who actually became a woman because of the change of the world line.

Therefore, looking at the programmer in front of him, who was the shortest and weakest among the sixteen high school students, and announced that she met the criteria of a junior high school girl, Zhixing came up with a bold guess.

"Is your shadow in this world really a girl around 14 years old?"

The programmer nodded, looked at the camera in the room, and responded:

"Whether in my own mind or in the minds of the general public, I have always been a woman."

"And I did develop much slower than others. Even though I've been a high school student for two years, I haven't changed as much as [dancers]."

"So, it just so happens that I can, as a middle school girl, have the desire to transcend the transaction with you. This must be fate!"

"Is it...destined...? Whose fate is it?"

Zhixing felt something was wrong, but it was just as the other party said, "Programmer" was the only one who met the requirements among these sixteen high school students.

And as the victim of the second case, it is destined that the paper bank will take the initiative to conduct the transaction.

All this makes perfect sense, except for one thing.

Why is it that when I am trading, I am faced with cognitive shadows that can change my gender and age?

Zhixing felt that his breathing became rapid. Although he did not suffer from lack of oxygen when breathing in the cognitive world, Zhixing still felt an indescribable discomfort. However, Zhixing really couldn't figure it out and didn't know where this uncomfortable feeling came from.

"What's wrong? You don't look well."

The words from the "Programmer" distracted Zhixing from the cold feeling. He subconsciously covered his neck with his hands and took a step back. He was afraid to think further, fearing that he would inevitably fall into despair. He couldn't help but change the subject:

"No...it's okay."

"Speaking of which, what is that unrealistic deal you were talking about? You should know that I want to make a deal with you because I want to enter into a contract in the cognitive world."

"You know, this has always been my dream, so... it occupies a huge part of my desire."

"If you can truly achieve this, then you can surely also conclude a sufficiently advanced contract."

"advanced..."

Zhi Xing paused, realizing his attention had been diverted. He worried that if he continued to think about it, he would fall into despair again, causing the witch's barrier to go wild and engulf the cognitive girl in it. He shook his head, squatted down, and asked the [Programmer] at eye level:

"So, tell me your deal."

The programmer withdrew his hands and turned sideways to face the paper. He pressed one palm toward himself and the other toward the notebook, praying sincerely:

"I hope you can store my soul in the AI ​​I created."

"Although I'm not sure if cognitive shadows count as souls... But if it's [Super High School Level Observer] Kyubey-kun, I don't know why, but I feel like you can do it."

"Your...soul?"

Zhixing's attention was indeed diverted to the wish of the [Programmer], but Zhixing never expected that as the most realistic [Programmer] with such talent, he would actually make such an outrageous wish to himself, so that Zhixing didn't even have an idea of ​​what to ask the other party to do next.

Chapter 316 The Second Day of Chapter 2

"You think too highly of me. To the outside world, I'm only a spectator. At most, I'm lucky enough to know some intelligence. How could you have such thoughts?"

Zhixing hesitated for a long time before speaking reluctantly.

"But, right now, my biggest desire has always been this."

"After all, it's my only best friend."

[Programmer] looked at his AI friend who was very skilled at creating something out of nothing, and felt helpless about the fact that the transaction content was too outrageous.

"Ever since I was little, I've wanted a friend who could understand me, so this little creature that can talk to itself is my best friend."

"You could say that the reason I was motivated to work hard on my technology and even enroll in Hope's Peak Academy was to bring it back to life."
