Even after noon, he didn't think about lunch and his eyes were fixed on the school gate.

Until the school gate opened and students began to come out after school.

Zhixing came to his senses and opened his notebook. He specifically picked out students who were passing through Park Road on their way home. Small teams of more than two people would flip through the notebook and look at the comparison figures.

Such actions were naturally seen by students who were leaving school.

But they didn't say anything, they just quietly moved away from the paper bank.

After all, an adult with messy hair, long beard, tattered clothes, bloodshot eyes, and a bad smell as if he hadn't showered for several days, with an age gap, was flipping through a notebook quickly without knowing what was going on, staring at the passing female junior high school student with wide eyes.

The reason why the police were not called on the spot was because people were afraid of getting into trouble.

Otherwise, how can you say that luck has changed? When Zhixing was looking through his notebook and eliminating the wrong options one by one, he made eye contact with a girl with twin ponytails who was his main focus.

The girl with twin ponytails subconsciously shrank behind a companion, and then another companion stretched out his hand to block the sight of the girl with twin ponytails and Zhixing.

Although there were many students whispering around Zhixing that were difficult to hear clearly, Zhixing still heard the girl in the trio who was protecting her twin ponytails with her hands turned around and asked.

"Is that the weirdo you met this morning? Don't be afraid, I will protect you, Madoka."

Chapter 7 There is nothing to be afraid of

Noticing the sudden movement of the paper line, the students, who were already walking in a circle, retreated even further.

The trio who had just been delayed by the twintails and failed to get away immediately suddenly stood out.

But soon, the short-haired girl standing in front reacted.

"Whoa, the weirdo is coming, hurry up, Madoka."

After saying that, he pulled the girl with twintails' hands and tried to walk away from the homeless man.

This action immediately put the already stressed-out Zhixing in a state of panic. Seeing that the three suspects were still a little distance away from him and were about to run away, he blurted out without thinking: "Wait, help me, Xiaoyuan, Sayaka!"

"Ugh?"

The girl with twin ponytails had one hand grabbed and was about to leave with her companions, but suddenly she heard Zhixing's cry for help. She subconsciously turned around and stopped running.

The short-haired girl slowed down after being dragged down by her companion, and then she realized what Zhixing said, so she pulled the girl with twin ponytails' hands even harder and ran.

As he ran, he exclaimed, "That guy even knew my name. He must be a lolita stalker. Run, Madoka."

"Alas! But..."

The words that escaped into the crowd were swallowed up by the crowd, and it was no longer possible to make out what the other person was saying.

Zhixing took two steps and followed, but still stopped.

Because among the trio, the long-haired girl did not leave with the two of them, but stood quietly there, just like the person "Madoka" had just relied on.

"What's wrong? Aren't you here for Madoka? They've already run away, aren't you going to chase them?"

Seeing Zhi Xing stop, the girl asked without any surprise.

Zhixing listened to the translated tone, frowned, and looked at the other person with some uncertainty.

Then he focused on forming a V-shape and holding the bag between the fingers of both hands in front of him.

The girl noticed Zhi Xing's gaze and cautiously lifted her bag up, trying to block his sight. She began to doubt her own judgment.

"Houm, no, you are? Who?"

I didn't see the portable version of the magical girl's transformation device - the magic ring and magic manicure - appear in the other party's hand.

Zhi Xingben spoke with some uncertainty, but when he saw the behavior that was inconsistent with the character's setting, he immediately changed his tone and asked.

Realizing that things weren't going as she'd imagined, the girl quietly took a step back and replied, "You called out Madoka and Sayaka's names just now, but you didn't know mine? Why did you stop then?"

Zhixing looked at the direction the two people had escaped, then looked in the direction of the school, and finally looked at the group of students who were watching the excitement from a distance.

He whispered, "Kaname Madoka, Miki Sayaka. That's the name, right?"

After hearing this, the girl calmed down, as if she had found evidence to confirm her thoughts.

"Oh, yes, and my name is Shizuku Hitomi. I will never abandon my friends, so go back and tell my father to give up this idea!"

As if she had won something, the girl raised a smile at the corner of her mouth, and then without even looking at the paper, she ran in the direction her companions left, with one hand half raised.

"????"

"Is this a conflict with her father?"

Zhixing looked at Renmei's back as she left and felt that he could no longer keep up with the thinking of a junior high school student.

However, Zhixing turned around and walked towards the school, watching the students who had stopped watching the fun and dispersed.

He opened the notebook and typed on one of the pages.

Then, he played with his pen in confusion, muttering to himself, "It's actually the childhood sweethearts group of Pink (Madoka), Blue (Sayaka), and Green (Hitomi). How come they didn't meet any other magical girls?"

Zhixing didn't bother to figure out whether the others were the protagonists. Although he hadn't received any personal confirmation yet, based on Renmei's answer, this should be the correct answer.

He ignored the students along the way and walked up to the security guard who looked nervous and was about to take out his baton.

"Hey, stop! If you come any closer, I'll treat you as a dangerous person!"

Although he is a security guard at the school, his salary is so low. Why should he risk his life for him? He would rather avoid trouble as much as possible, especially when the other party is not only not afraid of him but dares to approach him.

"I'm the student's older brother. I just fell on the road. Don't take it seriously."

Zhixing stopped at the right time and responded from a distance where he could clearly hear the other person's voice.

"Brother? Do you think I'm blind? I couldn't see what you were doing there! Get out of here right now! I've already called for help!"

The security guard breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the paper shop stop, but he still retorted in disbelief.

"My sister just transferred here, so I just wanted to ask her classmates about the situation. I really didn't do anything bad!"

"Transfer student? Humph, this kind of trick can only fool children. I have been working here for five or six years. Don't I know if there are transfer students? I advise you not to waste your time."

Zhixing didn't listen to the rest of the words, but instead looked down at the method of judging the plot that he had written in his notebook.

Since we know that Madoka is still in school, we can rule out the Warcraft plot line after the TV ending.

The security guard just saw Madoka interacting with him, but he didn't think the other party was a transfer student, so the "witch" line in the ending of the movie was also ruled out.

Then there is only one answer left!

The story in this city now is the same as the one in the movie "Mitakihara: Unescapable", where nightmare monsters are created in order to resurrect the witch.

That would explain everything.

Why do I have no recollection of how I got here? It turns out that this movie has the ability to rewrite memory, so I forgot what happened before.

If it's a nightmare, then there's nothing to be afraid of.

To deal with nightmares, the magical girls can not only give early warnings, but can even outnumber the enemy and rescue them by singing and dancing.

Apart from the possibility of revealing some information in your dreams, there is nothing to worry about.

Having successfully gotten the information out of Zhihang, he lost interest in the school and turned around to leave, his head still immersed in the joy of achieving his goal.

According to the story line, we only need to wait for a month until the protagonist of the movie, Xiao Hei, finds Xiao Hong and wants to leave the city. In just a few days, the movie will end.

Then all you have to think about is how to survive being trapped in the city for a month, and then you can return home.

As Zhihang was thinking, looking at the group of students who had not completely disappeared, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind as if it were reality.

Speaking of which, in the movie, Xiaohong is no longer a full-time magical girl, but also enters Mitakihara Junior High School, and is in the same class as the protagonists. Isn’t she also a transfer student?

A trace of cold sweat broke out on Zhixing's face.

This guy, once he has an inspiration, he can't stop deducing one thing after another.

"When did you transfer to Mitakihara Junior High School?")

"before you")

"When was that")

"Um, it was a year ago... um, when was it?")

If Xiaohong has transferred to this school, then she must be in the childhood sweetheart trio, or even replace Xiaolu's position. After all, only Xiaolu is not a magical girl, but a character who maintains daily emotions.

And if Xiaohong hasn't transferred schools yet, that would be even more impossible.

Because the story of this theater version only lasted about a month.

At the very beginning of the story, Xiaohong was set to have the memory of transferring to another school for a year, which was much longer than the actual one month after the story began. It was impossible for her to interrupt her studies and still think about the setting a year ago.

Zhixing began to breathe heavily, his heart beat faster, his blood boiled, and his brain kept thinking about the possibility of escaping reality.

The story of the TV plot, the story of the TV ending, the story of the movie version, the story of the movie version ending.

Madoka goes to school, but that’s not the TV ending; Madoka is not a transfer student, but that’s not the movie ending; Red is not a transfer student, but that’s not the movie story.

"Then there is only one answer~"

A voice accompanied by a tattoo appeared on Zhixing's neck.

"Yes, I might be in the past that Madoka has already destroyed. In other words, I, the butterfly, have changed the original future. The past that no longer exists after being rewritten by Madoka's wishes from the past, present, and future has reappeared."

Zhixing lowered his head with an expression of disbelief, but his body was unaffected as he walked on the unfamiliar road and left the school.

Chapter 8 Is it time to take the next step?

Don't be impatient or anxious, don't be too fast or too slow.

Zhixing's eyes were still fixed on the ground, but his steps did not stop.

They ignore the external factors around them, but they also honestly abide by pedestrian regulations and traffic rules.

You can walk on the side of the road, wait for the traffic light at the intersection, and automatically take the shortest route without even needing navigation.

However, Zhixing did not notice all these things, and did not even realize that he was still walking, but was immersed in his own memories.

(Born in an ordinary family that is neither rich nor poor, he cannot get medical treatment when he is sick, nor can he trade in old things for new ones, and he does not have a stable income. Although he is a little smart, he is not a good student.

There's nothing wrong with this. After all, you can still go to school normally. Even if you can't get into a good university, you can still graduate from college and then do a job that has nothing to do with what you learned.

I thought about saving money but it could only provide me with food and accommodation, and I lived a life of going to work, going home and going home every day. Until my energy was not as good as other interns, and I could not afford to live in my old age, so I resigned without telling my parents and became unemployed.

Fortunately, after working for a few years, I had quite a bit of savings, so laziness made me stay at home every day.

Enjoying a carefree life, until the game becomes too repetitive and the anime loses its eye-catching highlights.

The day before yesterday and yesterday, today and tomorrow, all the days that can be expected are the same repetitions.

It should be like this, until the savings are no longer enough to buy takeout and pay rent, and then under the pressure of life, start looking for the next job, which is a job that anyone can do.

When exactly did I end up here? Poisoned by overeating? Sudden death from staring at the computer for too long? War broke out while I was oblivious to the outside news? What in-game event was going on the day I traveled through time?

Why did I, someone like me, travel through time and space here? Why me? How could someone as useless and incapable of any help end up here, triggering a butterfly effect that took things for the worst?

Where's my power? Where's my cheat code? If I didn't have a cheat code that could solve all my problems, why would I have come to Madoka Magica? Clearly, other worlds offer far superior power systems, technological advancements, rare treasures, and opportunities.

This is just a story about a few girls who, under the trend of the times, have a tragic and sad experience, but still have a not-so-perfect "happy ending".

And now, the only "good ending" future has disappeared, what happened?

If it changes because of me, then what better ending can I have?

How could that be possible? Fans of Madoka Magica have been discussing this for so many years, and there hasn't been a better ending than this. At least I can think of a distorted version myself.

If there were no "variable" like me, the future might have turned out the same as it did originally.

Yes, if it weren't for me.

I haven't met any of the protagonists yet. This is my only contact today, and it shouldn't affect my decision. So)

"If I hadn't been there, maybe everything could have been salvaged."

If it weren't for me, Zhixing, with the help of a certain force, clearly recalled that his "future" did not exist, which was the TV version of the "Magic Circle" story collection.

It was almost dusk. Zhixing watched the 12*20 minute plot and arrived at a residential complex surrounded by uninhabited buildings due to unfinished projects without being disturbed.

The strange thing was that the iron gate, which should have been sealed to prevent thugs from occupying it, was easily pushed open by the paper shop. When it was closed again, it was the locked gate again to keep out outsiders.

Zhihang walked up the stairs one step at a time to the rooftop, which was who knows how many floors high. Not only did he not feel tired, he also easily pushed open the rooftop door that was tied with iron chains.

After pushing open the door, Zhixing's idea of ​​"Magic Circle" in his mind has come to an end.

Gently climbing over the railing that could only prevent accidents, Zhixing stood on the edge of the rooftop and sighed again.

"As expected, only without the useless me can they have a better ending."

Well, I haven't met Homura yet, so the butterfly effect shouldn't affect Homura. As long as there's no interference from me, Homura will still have a chance to lead to a "good ending".
