Shixing looked at Kamijou, who was looking at him from over Homura's shoulder and speaking a language he couldn't understand, and pointed at him and said:

"Sayaka's wish should only be for Kamijou's hand to recover. If recovery is a rule, then why would this guy appear when Kamijou's legs didn't benefit at all?"

"That's because, of course, it's just a hand, nothing more."

"Isn't it just a pair of palms that are restored?"

"Because it needs to be Kamijou Kyousuke's hand to use the power of the wish."

"So, this Kamijou was cloned?"

"The power of witches and magical girls is essentially the same. If the lives created by a witch's magic are called familiars, then the lives born from wishes should be called apostles."

"Apostles? Could it be that those people before were..."

"They are not true apostles, but merely humans who have manifested abilities under the influence of desire."

"You should know this clearly, since you can't understand the voice of a true apostle."

Zhixing recalled and confirmed that they were not speaking Chinese to accommodate him, then nodded and said logically:

“So, because it’s like a familiar, even with Kamijou’s memories, I can’t translate its words? But I can even translate voice messages on my phone.”

"This brings us to the foundation of magical girls' wishes: cause and effect."

Kamijou was very anxious as he saw the two of them ignoring him and talking in words he couldn't understand, but he couldn't break free from Homura's restraints at all. He could only look around anxiously, hoping to find passers-by to help him.

"The abilities gained through karma-based wishes are actually also realized through karma. And because the power is caused by human karma, it is most effective when it comes to human matters. The further away from humans, the lower the effect of the wish."

"In the final analysis, it's just a matter of changing cause and effect, turning it into something that all of humanity has to help you accomplish. It's impossible to destroy Kyubey with a wish."

Jixing thought of the birth of the Principle of Circles and wanted to refute it, but then he looked at Kamijou who had stopped asking for help, and fell silent, listening to Xiaohen's words.

Homura led the way, relying solely on her sense of the people around her, turning left and right in the deserted alleys, making it impossible for Kamijou to find anyone asking for help.

"The same is true of your wish. Madoka made a wish for you to be able to understand the language of human karma, or rather, the words spoken by beings considered human."

"So, even though the witch didn't seem to make much sound, you still believed she was a girl and were able to communicate with her. However, the familiar, which is also part of the girl's soul, cannot communicate."

"Of course, it's mainly because you don't understand. The other party can still understand what you say, just like it answered the question you just asked honestly."

"If it weren't for this kind of judgment based on human cause and effect, there would be no difference between the other person and a real person, whether from the appearance or internal organs."

"Even the other party has a soul and can make wishes again, just like the girl in the Flesh Reformation who was repeatedly resurrected by her companions and then became a magical girl, but was locked up because she was not like the original, and then resurrected again. Such an existence can only exist within a certain barrier, such as the barrier of Witch Night that Mitakihara is in now."

Zhi Xing followed Homura and saw her carrying Kamijou to the edge of the abandoned city. He guessed something in his mind:

"So, now we have evidence that the Witch Night barrier does exist? Now we need to move outside the barrier?"

"Don't bother. It only needs to enter, even if it's just a familiar's barrier, and it will disappear without protection. And there's no definitive evidence to prove the Witch Night barrier. I even tried taking it on a plane to a foreign country, and there was no change."

"Has this Apostle Kamijou appeared before? Why are you so surprised?"

After hearing Zhi Xing's question, Xiao Yan was silent for a while, then looked at Zhi Xing and said:

"Even if you'd said something similar before, Kamijou's fingers wouldn't have separated. I know this because after Sayaka's psychological treatment failed, you gave up on the current round and wanted to finish reading the materials as quickly as possible so you could think about the next experiment."

"Although the Witch's Kiss that awakened you after reading the information has been eliminated, your despair wasn't immediately effective."

"When you think about it afterwards, your mind will occasionally and unconsciously come up with information that you read before but didn't have time to give up on. Then after thinking about it again, you fall into despair."

"I didn't know about this at the time, so I left you unattended and you were inoculated with the Witch's Kiss."

"Because it was daytime, the witch was far away from you, so she couldn't stop you. You fell into despair and your mind went berserk."

"Could it be that!!"

"It seems that you do have plans in this regard. You actually figured it out."

"No, no, no, I just looked at the answer and reasoned, so it matched. At that time, I probably didn't know that this would happen."

"Yes, you didn't know that a second Kamijou would appear. Back then, you were more innocent. Without Sayaka's protection, you wanted to test the Kamijou family's arm to see if a dragon would appear if you cut it."

""

Zhixing opened his mouth, expressing his complete incomprehension of his own behavior, but this was verified from Xiaoyan's mouth, and the reason was obviously said by himself, otherwise Xiaoyan would not know the setting of this kind of animation that does not exist in this world, so he could only remain silent and dared not say anything.

Homura looked away, knowing clearly that although Zhixing couldn't accept the logic behind his actions, he had already understood that the reason was true, so he continued:

"Of course, you didn't do anything drastic right away. You secretly grabbed Kamijou on the park bridge on his way home from school, then performed some experiments on his hand. After confirming that it could heal normally, you finally removed it. The reason you gave was just an excuse after you regained consciousness. Anyway, you probably didn't consider the consequences at that time."

Although it is not at this moment, Zhixing still feels a little embarrassed about his past behavior. Thinking about this round, the plan he made to stimulate Sayaka to make a wish, although it was temporarily changed after meeting Homura, he has been waiting for Sayaka to come out for so long, but he has not reflected on the feasibility of the plan. It can only be said that the influence of the Witch's Kiss is real and it is definitely not his fault.

"Hmm? So, was the plan of having you take Kamijou abroad something I came up with before I woke up, or after I woke up?"

"It was the plan you proposed to me when I found you after you disappeared unexpectedly and you were sitting on the apostle's body, watching his feet recover in front of you."

"After that, you were taken away by the police for kidnapping and assault, and I was implicated and had to go abroad to temporarily avoid the limelight."

"It was only when Witch Night was approaching that I secretly came back and brought you out. However, due to insufficient firepower, I was still unable to defeat Witch Night."

"Feel sorry."

"It doesn't matter. Kyoko didn't agree to join the war at that time anyway, and Asami couldn't fight because of Sayaka's witch transformation. Even if she hadn't gone abroad, she might not have collected enough weapons to fight."

Homura accepted Kazuyuki's apology in a nonchalant tone.

However, Zhi Xing looked at Xiao Yan's back and could not see her face. After hesitating for a moment, he still did not apologize for the second time. He could only mutter to himself in his heart:

Although I would be cleared every round, your experience was actually preserved, so at that time, you were also fighting the Witch Night for Madoka, even if you were the only one left, instead of reincarnating directly.

I'm sorry for doubting your determination for Madoka, and I'm sorry for making you lose the chance to save Madoka again. I hope this time, Madoka won't die in front of you.

Zhixing looked at his apostle Kamijou, who was looking at him with some fear after hearing what Homura said, and made some kind of decision in his heart.

Chapter 94: How to make a rule-based wish?

Humans have their limits. Even though there is still a lot of potential to be developed, the difference is only apparent when compared with other humans.

After being developed by Kyubey, the things humans possess can be directly transformed into superhuman magical girls, who are able to withstand the impact of a dozen-story building at an unknown speed without being damaged. However, without the blessing of magic, steel bars and rubble can trap the girl and make her unable to move at all.

This difference in strength represents the strength of human beings and the strength of Kyubey civilization respectively.

So, to what extent can human cause and effect be achieved?

Destroy Kyubey? Expel Kyubey? Block Kyubey's prophecy? Destroy all witches? Eliminate Witch Night? Destroy familiars? Become immune to the Witch's Kiss? Or just resist a long-range Witch's Kiss?

Relying on the power gained from exchanging wishes, even the branch of the branch of the branch in the magical girl system - the Witch's Kiss, finds it difficult to form effective immunity. Once this result is realized, no one will pin their hopes on the "wishes" brought by Kyubey.

In fact, Madoka's wish to destroy the witches ended up just transferring all the witches from other universes instead of destroying them, and it also led to the birth of the Space Witch, which could not be stopped.

Such a result may be achieved at the cost of the lives of countless magical girls in parallel universes. Therefore, the Soul Gem disappeared with the transfer of filth. Unlike the nearly completely black Homura, whose magic power increased as much filth was absorbed by a Seed of Sorrow. It directly replenished her magic power and she didn't look exhausted at all.

The result of the cause and effect of countless universes is that none of the witches were killed, but were simply formed into the Space Witch. The magic power of the Space Witch is even superior to the human cause and effect gathered by Madoka, so the miracle of making a wish cannot work on the Space Witch.

but!

Zhixing placed his hand on Kamijou's head, blocking his gaze while feeling the real touch and the normal forehead without fever.

Looking at Xiao Yan, who was still concentrating on observing the people around him, Zhi Xing's brain was rapidly analyzing his own ideas, and he said at the same time:

"If they wanted to pull Kamijou into the barrier to obliterate his existence and destroy his body, they wouldn't have to run that far."

"Although I have a poor attraction to familiars, I am also truly desperate. What if a familiar approaches?"

"Why don't you let me listen to the information now that there's no one around?"

Homura, who had stopped in the alley waiting for a break in the crowd, turned around and looked towards the paper path.

"Why are you so impatient all of a sudden? Don't you always need me to force you to read the information?"

"There are only four days left, and only three copies of the information are left. If I have to give up reading today because of Kamijou's incident, won't I fall into despair again on the last night of Witch Night? What if Witch Night arrives early because of this?"

"As for the rest, I naturally have my own plans. Now you'd better not act on your own and add unnecessary variables. Otherwise, I don't mind treating you like Asami did to you, Shinichi."

Zhixing heard Xiaoyan calling this name. Although he knew it was just a pseudonym, Xiaoyan still conveyed his meaning.

"Shinichi? Who? Mr. Edogawa, is your full name Edogawa Shinichi? I remember... Sayaka called you..."

"Kudo Shinichi, you can call me that. Edogawa Conan is just a code name for ordinary people's lives. You know, on the other side of the world, there must always be a code name to block the connection between the two worlds so as not to be discovered."

Seeing Kamijou, who had been silent for a long time, speak, Zhixing immediately interrupted his reminiscence and replied.

"So, have you been deceiving us all along? Whether it's the other Kamijou or Sayaka, have you been using deception to achieve some purpose?"

"How could that be? I'm not bad. Wait, Homura, be careful of any accidents!"

Homura, who had transformed at some point, pulled out a pistol from her shield, aimed at the paper man's head, threw Kamijou off her shoulder, and approached the paper man step by step.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Zhixing seemed to see a faint purple lingering on the gun that Xiaoyan was dragging.

"What did you do just now? What were you thinking about? I'll give you 5 numbers. Say them all before the countdown ends: 5, 4, 3."

"I, I, I, I just said a few words casually. Don't you know all this? I just subconsciously wanted to explain something. I didn't think anything of it!"

"...2, 1! Biu!"

The silenced pistol specially prepared for paper business fired a bullet that was enough to kill a person. It hit the head accurately and unobstructed, leaving a big hole.

Listening to the gunshots so close, even though the silencer blocked the sound and distorted the sound he knew, it was enough to make Kamijou unable to get up. He curled up facing the wall, his fear of being executed reaching its peak.

Homura put down the fired pistol and tilted her head to the side. She looked at Kamijou, who was curled up and trembling. She held down her hand holding the gun and sighed.

"Really? Your reaction is too slow. I clearly told you that fear and despair can speed up your thinking. Why, even after I really started counting down, you're still so slow?"

""

"Didn't I just tell you that you can only understand conversations with beings you identify as human? This identification isn't something you can simply translate by saying you're human."

""

"Until just now, you clearly couldn't understand the Apostle Kamijou's words. Why did you suddenly understand them just now? You clearly understand the mechanism of wishes yourself, and even then you couldn't understand the voices of familiars and animals. What were you thinking about during that time?"

Zhi Xing stood to the left of Xiao Yan, with his head lowered lifelessly, silent.

After a long time, he exhaled and said:

"Just looking at Kamijou, I suddenly felt that the lives of androids are also human lives, that's all."

Zhi Xing turned his head and looked in the direction where Xiao He had just shot, but he could not see anything.

"Really? Is that really all?"

"Really, 24K pure."

"Then why did you want to see the information just now? There are pedestrians and residents around here. Don't you take their lives seriously?"

"I just wanted to save Kamijou, so I used the data to confirm your destination. That's all."

"You're lying. If you really wanted to determine Kamijou's fate, given your personality, asking directly would be the most common option. Why would you use information in a roundabout way?"

Homura narrowed her eyes, turned her head back, passed by the remains of Kyubey not far away, looked at Zhi Xing, and said word by word:

“You, are planning to experiment on Kamijou with his desperate state of mind? Is that right?”

Seeing the glare coming at him, Zhi Xing first looked away guiltily, then reacted and looked back at Xiao Yan. He raised his glasses, which were stable and didn't slip at all, and said in the tone of Kyubey:

"Well, the original intention was indeed to sync with my past self. Only when we are in the same situation can our thinking logic be similar."

"As for whether or not the experiment you mentioned will be discovered later, I don't think there's any need to worry about that. After all, you wouldn't let me do that, would you, Magical Girl Homura Akemi?"

"Finally, you told the truth. It wasn't easy, even though it's a confirmed truth."

Homura retracted the pistol, dispelled the transformation, flicked her hair, turned around, picked up Kamijou who had just fallen, and then walked towards the street outside.

“More than that, what was your reaction just now? Do you really not want me to face Kamijou with such a desperate mentality?”

Although it was just a faint sound of gunfire, somehow the surroundings were briefly cleared, and Homura was able to carry Kamijou across the street openly to the other side.

In the alleyway where Zhi Xing and the others had left, a pair of red eyes opened from the darkness. After a few leaps, they came to the innocent Kyubey who had been caught in the crossfire. Following the direction the Kyubey had been facing, they looked at the retreating figures of Homura and the others, and said in confusion:

"They had been letting themselves be followed all along, but why did they suddenly open fire just because Conan changed the object of the wish? What did Homura Akemi and Conan Edogawa say at that moment?"

Then, Kyubey's gaze no longer lingered on the backs of the three people from Zhixing. Instead, he lowered his head and did some cleaning. Then, he followed the direction of the three people and approached from the rooftop, jumping and skipping.

Something that Mami called "The Principle of the Circle" suddenly appeared.

In the contradiction of the "wish paradox", with the attitude of "fulfilling wishes", he transformed into the appearance of Madoka, carrying Madoka's memories and the memories of countless magical girls from other parallel worlds, and emerged from nothingness.

And on the pretext of destroying the birth of the Space Witch, he targeted Kaname Madoka and shot out pure wish power towards the Earth, the Space Witch, and Mitakihara, not to clone himself, but to destroy her. This created a contradiction in the cause and effect of time, and thus he went to a higher dimension and became a circle that did not exist in the universe.

Just like Mingming just made a wish to heal his arm, although it was a miracle, it was indeed within the scope of human ability. It was obviously just a wish of this level, but it actually resurrected or hatched a new life.

Where does this energy consumption, which shouldn't have occurred, come from?

From the cause and effect of the girl transaction?

But there was no way Kamijou's ability would disappear just like that, otherwise Homura would have been able to tell them apart one by one.
