Watching the anime from Madoka Magica and writing the rules

The quantity is limited and can only last for one month, with a clear countdown.

Is the end of the countdown really just the disappearance of the time-stop magic?

Zhihang turned his head to take a look at the paper documents still on the desk. Thinking that he still had 7 days, he endured it and sorted and organized the things he bought.

After all, if this is over, you might just forget about the sorting.

Winter clothes, autumn clothes, summer clothes, even socks and underwear are all available, and there is no need to report the data yourself. While sorting, Zhixing diverted his attention by complaining about how familiar he was with Xiaoyan.

After finally finishing the tidying up, it was already 22pm.

Zhixing glanced at the information, but still gave up the idea of ​​reading it because he was dozing off.

After working on my brain for several times today, Zhixing's brain is exhausted.

Lying on the bed, closing my eyes, I thought to myself that the 7th had passed and there were only about 7 days left, while relaxing my body so that I could fall asleep faster.

A few minutes later, Zhixing suddenly sat up and said in horror:

"Could it be that the magical girl's death can slow down the correction of the distortion of the wish? So even without the magical girl, they can still enjoy the power brought by the wish?"

Chapter 81: Only One Week Left Until Witch Night

"No matter what the wish is, as long as it does not conform to common sense, it will inevitably give rise to some kind of distortion."

"It is only natural that disaster will eventually arise from this."

"This is the summary of Kyubey, a senior witness of wish-making."

"Simply put, cheating in the game will cause you to accumulate errors, which will eventually be detected by the system and then punished by the GM."

"Because they are not at the same level as the GM, this attack is unsolvable. They cannot directly engage in offensive and defensive battles like hackers."

"But this GM doesn't actually take action. At least, we haven't seen the true power of the GM. But just like the unfalsifiable nature of God, the repeated and obvious results show the existence of a GM, so the existence of a GM is inevitable."

"Wishes are a good thing, but the equivalent exchange they carry out isn't the energy quality we normally see, understand, and use, but rather causality. Therefore, it's OK to think of GM as a time paradox caused by a causal void."

"Is it because I'm going to be the savior that I have this huge cause and effect, or is it because I became a magical girl that I can become the savior?"

"Making a wish distorts reality, and this distortion of reality invites God's correction. This correction will naturally begin at the very source. For example, what if the girl who made the wish no longer had a reason to wish?"

"Then the next step should be to recover the distortion caused by the wish."

"But it was at this time that the magical girl, having given up her original intention, became a scapegoat, and the power of correction bestowed upon her was exiled to another dimension."

"So the wishing continues, and it continues, constantly bringing distortions to reality, but no one cares."

"Because we're tracing back to the source, Kyubey has set a rule that we can't make suggestions, but he's hinting at it everywhere."

"Is this the truth? With this question in mind, I decided to find out how long a wish can last."

"You wouldn't know if you didn't check. It's perfectly normal for a wish to last a hundred years, even longer than a human's lifetime. It still wouldn't completely consume the power of this wish, which is also the result of karma from someone else's lifetime."

"No wonder Kyubey covets this energy. With a fourteen-year cycle, he can generate energy that won't be depleted for a hundred years. How much is this deal?"

"It's not surprising to see traces of the power of wishing in various great figures. For example, before their rise to power, they knew a young girl, or there's no historical record of a certain woman they met in the past."

"There was even a time when giving birth to a daughter was considered the greatest honor. Although not many could become magical girls, the more you gave birth, the greater your chances."

"Then it was banned by the Empress."

"In the history books I've read, the ratio of female emperors is 50:50, which is completely different from our history. Even when I read the history of my own country, some unfamiliar names pop up, even though I don't remember many names in the first place."

"However, the ending of the empress is similar. After ten or twenty years, there will be uprisings in various places in the name of opposing tyranny. But this is also a very long life for a magical girl."

"The longest-lived female emperor in history was Athena of ancient Greece, who personally defeated the rebellious god of war and reigned for nearly 70 years, remaining eternally youthful."

"It was because of the appearance of this Athena, whose deity seemed out of place, that I shifted my focus from historical figures to myths and legends."

"Compared to those magical girls who died for various reasons, ordinary people who were directly granted wishes have the longest-lasting wishes."

"For example, mummies whose bodies remain indestructible, vampires that suck the blood of young girls, Dragon King Temples where young girls are sacrificed to ensure good weather, and mermaids who can live a hundred years if they eat..."

"The unit of measurement of a century can be surpassed by all others. Some have even been able to maintain their value for thousands of years."

"However, a hundred years is too long for human consciousness, so those who are still able to act independently often come out every hundred years or so to find new magical girls, and then are witnessed by others."

"It's hard to tell whether they're just wishing for renewal or just wanton tycoons who spend 648 every week."

"But purely from a physical point of view, the mummies that remain immortal to this day remind me of Kamijou's hands, and the legendary potion made from mummy powder, and why it's so consistently available."

"Similarly, the power of wishing, which is exerted on all of humanity, does not seem to be limited to those who made the wish at the time."

"Their offspring will also inherit the corresponding wish power, except for the magical girl who replaced the power of her own wish with her own magic power."

"Therefore, the effects of brainwashing will be counteracted by the magical girl and will backfire."

"This raises a more interesting question. If the Queen's power of correction represents the awakening and resistance of the new generation of magical girls, then as these rebellious magical girls send their power of correction into alternate dimensions one by one, will they be able to live their entire lives like ordinary people?"

"Unfortunately, the goddess of war, Athena, fell into the water during a typhoon, and thus the holder of the record for the longest reigning female emperor perished."

"Yes, that should be the Witch Night! The Witch Night formed by dozens of witches and familiars combined together."

"The power of correction was banished to the alternate dimension, but this also means that the alternate dimension is already filled with the power of correction. The Witch Night that brought together all the witches was probably a reckoning for the magical girls who had to voluntarily go to the alternate dimension."

"Thinking about it, why is Asami always the first to fall during Witch Night? She's clearly a ranged player and has a lot of experience, but when it's 2 vs. 1, Asami goes first. 3 vs. 1, Asami goes first, followed by Madoka. 4 vs. 1... oh, she didn't make it."

"Although the situation with the Five Colors Squad is different from that of the Empress, and the power of correction is not directly targeted, just as someone other than your own messenger can bring misfortune to a magical girl, the reckoning brought by Witch Night will not be ineffective simply because there are no magical girls bringing the power of correction to you."

"Although this corrective power isn't as tangible as magical power, after discussing it with Homura, I've concluded that witches' barriers do contain this corrective power that can correct the distortions caused by wishes."

"Otherwise, why would ordinary people who can linger outside the barrier have such a short time to wait for rescue once they enter it?"

"The familiars have all been infused with the Witch's Kiss. ​​They can create a fire outside and let it burn slowly, giving the magical girls time to discover and rescue them. Compared to the situation inside the barrier where they have to race against time, the difference is too obvious."

Zhixing took a pen and summarized some key points in his notebook so that he could understand, with a serious expression.

Although the random thoughts I had before falling asleep yesterday allowed me to come to some guesses, I didn't expect that the validity period of a wish could be from ancient times to the present.

After tossing and turning, waking up again and again, Zhi Xing successfully did not rely on the alarm clock and woke up when Xiao Yan went out. Then he relaxed his nerves and started to browse "Duration of wish---30"

I originally thought that it would be easy to finish reading 3 pages, but I didn’t expect that there were not many survey materials and experimental data that could be skipped in the middle, so I wrote the conclusion directly.

Zhixing took another look at the **formalin brain written on his notebook, sighing that the magical creation was still providing evolutionary direction for mankind. He couldn't help but touch his throat, then hesitated, touched his mouth, hesitated again, touched his ears, then remembered the lip reading translation last night, and touched his eyes through the gap between his glasses.

He lamented that after his death, his entire head could be used as a relic, except for his nose for venting air and his useless brain.

I looked at the time and it was still quite a distance from noon. So, since many of the questions that had been bothering me had been answered, I decisively abandoned the remaining *-marked parts and the other two main texts. I only read these two pages and chose to catch up on the show.

Looking at the alien races that often appear in anime, Zhixing can't help but think of the mythical creatures in the world he lives in now, which are born from the wishes of girls and based on certain objects.

Zhixing even wanted to test his translation ability to see if there was an option to continuously stack wishes and become an immortal mythical creature.

Unfortunately, the internet at home is down and I have no reason to go out, so I choose to stay in bed and watch some anime to clear my mind.

The alarm clock rang, so he ordered takeout. After eating, he continued to watch anime. Then the alarm clock rang again. After washing up, Shizuo put on the new clothes he had just bought yesterday and stepped out of Xiaoyan's house again.

This time the destination is - Sayaka's House.

What appointment? That didn't exist. Homura said she would handle it, so it was completely up to Homura. The paper company wouldn't follow Anzi's old path.

Besides, Sayaka has become a bit evil with Asami's presence. If she goes to the appointment, what if Sayaka can't control her emotions and hurts herself in front of her first love Kamijou?

Besides, how could he have the ability to solve the problems that Kamijou had caused by making a wish? He didn't even know whether the witch was involved in Kamijou's finger being cut off last time.

Therefore, Kazuyo decided to take advantage of the opportunity when Sayaka would be waiting for him at school to visit Sayaka's parents who had never appeared before.

Give Sayaka two more guardians to prevent her from surrendering to the enemy on her own initiative, while he himself knows nothing about it.

Although schools in this world often finish earlier than adults get off work, it is still possible to have a housewife or a cook at home.

Since we still have to patrol together at night, now is my last chance.

I thought so, but as soon as I went out, I encountered the first problem.

The new phone couldn't access the internet even when outside, and Homura had no plans to buy herself a phone, so even though she knew the address Sayaka had revealed, she had no idea how to get there.

After confirming again that there was no offline map on his phone, Zhixing stood in the corridor speechlessly looking at the street outside.

Not to mention Sayaka's house, even Kazuyo had no idea how Homura got to school.

After all, I was only taken through it once at the beginning, so how could I have the memory to remember it?

So, go back?

Zhixing looked at the door not far from him, as if he saw the bed and the animation waving at him in the room.

"At this time, it seems your chance to make an appearance has arrived. Come out, unknown uncle!"

Zhixing took out a coin and looked at the two-choice tool with a face on one side and a number on the other. Sure enough, the options changed from 3 to going out and not going out.

"Ding~"

"Snapped!"

Zhi Xing looked at the face facing up and swallowed his saliva. He wanted to try two out of three and three out of five again.

But that would be equivalent to making a decision that he did not approve of. Although Zhixing really did not want to accept the result of going out even though he did not know the way, if he wanted to be a variable, he had to do things that he did not want to do in order to break the constraints of his own logic of action.

After struggling for a long time, Zhixing finally clenched the coin, closed the door, walked out of Xiaoyan's apartment building, and went straight to the subway station.

After leaving Homura's house in one breath, Zhixing quickly came up with an idea on the way to the tram station.

"I can communicate anyway, so I can just ask for directions. I can ask the subway station staff directly. The subway lines here seem to be very complicated anyway, so asking the staff should be better than asking passersby."

With this thought in mind, Zhixing quickly arrived at the tram station, and after shyly asking the staff for the address, he leaned against the wall in silence.

To summarize the conversation:

"Hello, how do I get to Route 456 from here?"

"Are you talking about Route 756 on Line 2 or Route 146 on Line 5?"

Then, I only heard the place names once but did not write them down on paper because I heard two new place names and I was not sure if I heard them correctly.

Then, the staff showed their professionalism and provided several similar place names, which simply confused the paper shop's location information about Sayaka House.

So after thanking the staff, Paper Shop leaned against the cold wall and thought about which road Sayaka's House was.

Unfortunately, this was not something that Zhihang had deduced through his own thinking, so tracing back did not bring back his memory, and his impression of that address had been completely shattered.

"Ah~ So I don't have a choice, right?"

Zhixing secretly glanced at the exit behind him. Although it could be used as a fork in the road to toss the coin again, he had ruled out going out or not going out, not where to go.

After sighing, the paper shop changed a staff member and asked how to get to Mitakihara Junior High School. He quickly got the only optimal route.

Standing in the tram waiting area, Zhixing clicked on the voice message of the time.

“2012年6月8日金曜日（周五）15：21”

"Ah, school's almost over. That's right, I wanted to wait until Sayaka's parents were home from get off work before leaving. I hope Sayaka hasn't detained Kamijou by the time I get to school."

With a lucky mentality, the paper shop waited for the tram and embarked on the journey to the appointment.

Chapter 82 There is no plan without variables

The train only traveled a few stops before arriving near Mitakihara Junior High School.

The paper shop paid attention to the tram stop and got off the tram in time with the crowd.

After leaving the station, there was no need to ask for directions. I just looked around and saw Mitakihara Junior High School with a religious roof and a park in front.

After standing there and taking a deep breath, Zhixing decided to carry out the variable behavior to the end.

Now that we're here, everyone who should be going home from school should have already left, so there's no point in delaying for a few minutes.

When I got to the school gate, as expected, I was stopped by the security guard.

"People picking up children are not allowed in."

Zhihang looked at the security guard in front of him and found that it was not the same one who let him in last time, so he said casually:

"Teacher Kazuko asked me to come to school. She said she had something to discuss with a student."

"Kazuko? Oh~ Is that the second-year teacher, Ms. Saotome?"

"Oh, ah, that's the name."

"Please take a seat. I'll call Saotome-sensei over. Yamada, take care of the parents!"

The security guard made a decision for the paper bank with a smile on his face, then called a second security guard and went into the house to make a phone call.

"No, it's not that strict?"

At this time, school was over and most of the students who should have gone home had already gone. The rest were those who had clubs in the school and were carrying out their own club activities, so there were still quite a few people in the school.

Zhihang stood at the school gate, looking at the security guard who went to make a phone call, and then looked at the young security guard who had just been called over and was about to ask him to go to the security room next door to rest. He felt that he might have said something wrong.
