Watching the anime from Madoka Magica and writing the rules

She's not even a magical girl, so what if she came from the future?

"What a headache! I only wanted to take half a day off. How could this happen? My afternoon class is my homeroom teacher's class!"

Mami didn't care whether to believe what Zhixing said or not.

But on the issue of paper bank ownership, Mami must make a decision.

If you believe in the "future", then the other party is obviously an illegal immigrant.

If you hand it over to the police, the other party will never have the chance to contact you again.

Then the future will become reality step by step.

And if he doesn't believe in this "future", then he might be an insider who knows about the magical girl, and it would be fine if he was thrown into the police station.

Or maybe he is a tool of a magical girl, and he will be bailed out when the time comes.

This is a multiple-choice question that everyone who sees it will choose. Logically, Mami shouldn't be troubled by it.

but.

"Alas, I hope the aunties around here won't spread rumors about this."

Asami picked up the Seed of Sorrow, which as a magical girl, she should have taken immediately.

The story I just recalled came to mind.

"I can't just pretend this doesn't exist and let this happen."

"I see, as expected of Asami!"

Seeing that Mami had made the decision, Kyubey would not object.

"Kyubi, can I ask you for a favor?"

"what's up?"

"Confirm whether what Mr. Edogawa said is true."

"Sure, I'm curious about that, too. Bye then."

Watching Kyubey leave, Mami looked at the adult body that was one section larger than hers and imagined herself carrying him through the streets.

She couldn't help but shook her head and decided to be extravagant. She directly used the state of a magical girl, moved from the rooftop, and flew back home with the paper line in her drag.

It seemed that this unfinished building was about to fall into silence again.

Kyubey, who was supposed to use his invisibility to sneak into the school to look at the roster, quietly took a detour and returned.

Kyubey easily jumped from the roof to the ground in a few steps, and then took a few steps forward.

A notebook appeared in front of Kyubey.

"What happened in the future? Why would an ordinary person come here?"

Kyubey flipped through the notebook, but he had no doubt about what the paper said.

Whether it is the information about Witch Night or the two candidates for Magical Girl, the information from Paper Line can match them one by one.

In this situation, the only thing Kyubey cares about is its purpose.

"Hmm? What is this?"

The pages of the notebook stopped turning, and line after line of Chinese characters were written on it.

Chapter 13 Sincerity is the key to success

The strange ceiling, this feeling has never been experienced by Zhixing.

Instead, I lay in the soft nest for the first time in a long time, feeling so comfortable that I didn't want to get up.

But I’m hungry!

Being hungry because of not eating should make your limbs weak and you can't even lift your hands.

But Zhixing was different. When he regained consciousness, hunger quickly swept through his body and he immediately jumped out of bed.

"Collapse, collapse"

The food that was placed on the bed was bounced against the wall and scattered all over the floor.

Zhixing grabbed the food bag and tore it open, then picked up the water bottle on the ground, quickly unscrewed the lid, and started eating voraciously.

Soon, Zhixing had cleaned up most of the food on the ground, and he finally regained his ability to think.

Zhixing looked around the room he was in. There was a double bed, a mess on the floor, a pure blue wallpaper, several wardrobes, a dressing table and a desk.

"here it is?"

Although the memory should have ended with him falling beside Mami, the room didn't look like a girl's room, especially the pile of cosmetics on the dressing table that students wouldn't use.

Zhixing took a quick look at the environment, then opened the door of the room while holding a bag of half-eaten snacks.

After leaving the room, a hall with only a table came into view.

"Ok?"

When Zhixing came to the table, he saw a piece of paper with some words written on it. Probably.

Since he couldn't understand the words, Zhixing walked across the table and went to the balcony beside it.

School uniforms were drying on the balcony. Zhixing recognized them as Mitakihara's student uniforms at a glance, but they were the only school uniforms hanging there.

I walked past the clothes drying area and looked at the scenery outside. Apart from knowing that this was the 4th floor, I didn't see any landmark buildings that could help the paper shop determine its address.

Zhihang returned to the hall with little interest and looked at several rooms one after another. It turned out that except for the bathroom and the room he came out of, all other doors were locked, including the main door for going out.

Zhixing looked at his image in the bathroom and saw a new towel neatly placed beside him.

Although I couldn't understand the note, I could still understand what it meant.

So he went back to his room and found a lot of clothes for adult men in the closet. He tried them on and took them to wash up.

It was afternoon in a blink of an eye.

Mami used the key to open the locked door, and seeing that the note on the table had not changed, she walked into the room where Zhixing's parents were temporarily staying.

He casually scratched the wall, and the sunlight outside suddenly appeared where the wallpaper was.

Mami glanced at the paper still lying on the bed, then at the obviously reduced amount of food, and said with a dark face: "Since you're up, don't go back to sleep. You've already slept all day."

"Hmm, no wonder I haven't felt sleepy yet. It's been so long."

Zhixing sat up and slowly opened his eyes towards the source of the sound.

She has normal black hair, which is neither long nor curly, and her face is not round. She doesn't have much in common with Madoka and Anita. Apart from her figure being too precocious, there is nothing that matches Mami Tomoe.

"Ugh"

Although I was mentally prepared, the world was not completely consistent with my perception.

Then, in order to further confirm the identity of the girl in front of him, Zhi Xing asked: "It's been a day, have you confirmed the identities of Xiaolan and Xiaoyuan?"

"Xiao Lan? I don't know why you call her that, but now that you're awake, you should explain the previously interrupted explanation in the living room."

Zhixing nodded, silently equating the girl in front of him with Mami Tomoe.

Then he walked out of the room and watched Asami busy herself for a while, then brought two glasses of water and placed them on the table.

"Sorry for the wait."

Mami sat directly opposite the table, and Zhixing also sat down. The two were silent for a while before Mami broke the deadlock.

"Mr. Edogawa, right? I remember you said before that you came from the future to help defeat Witch Night."

Zhixing nodded, like a job applicant waiting for the interviewer to ask questions.

"Then why did you appear in the witch's barrier, Mr. Edogawa? Judging from your appearance, you probably don't have any means to resist the witch and survive her clutches."

Asami didn't believe in the future, but she cared more about the fact that an ordinary person had survived the witch's barrier for more than just one day.

"That was an accident, but also... inevitable."

Zhixing found the entry point and finally stopped being silent and started introducing himself.

"Just like what you're hearing now, I don't actually recognize the characters here, nor do I know the language here. I guess the grammar doesn't even match."

Mami frowned but didn't interrupt Zhi Xing.

"I clearly don't know anything, but the reason I'm here is simply because I have no choice."

"It started with the Witch Night that arrived in this city about a month ago, and it triggered a disaster that spread across the globe."

"A young girl unknown to me, in order to put an end to this disaster, used modern means such as the internet to discover the history of this city."

"About the end of the five magical girls in Mitakihara, and information about Witch Night."

"So, as an ordinary person who poses no threat to magical girls."

"My blessing of communication made me the right person to come to this city from a foreign country."

"But as the person being protected, the information I have is very limited. I only know that the time in the past I returned to should not exceed about a month."

"Besides that, we can communicate relatively well without having to worry about language barriers."

After listening to Zhixing's self-introduction, Mami paid special attention to what Zhixing said.

Sure enough, I found that when Zhixing spoke, he only moved his lips twice but made 3-5 sounds.

Moreover, although there is no grammatical error, there is an obvious incoherence between sentences, as if the object is placed in front of the subject just for the sake of placing it in front.

"So, what's the reason? The reason for surviving the witch's barrier."

"As I said before, it's easier for magical girls to come and change history than for them to come into conflict with the current magical girls in this city."

"Then compared to someone like me who can only communicate but cannot read, it's not my turn."

"And my election obviously has more than just this one advantage. After all, I can speak and write, and there are many elite candidates."

"But I am the only one who can communicate with the witch alone, and thus survive without meeting you or failing."

Although as a time traveler, the golden finger is one of the secrets that cannot be revealed even if you are beaten to death.

"Communicating with the witch" is the only bargaining chip that Zhixing can find to participate in the magical girl's actions.

"Communicating with a witch? Is such a thing possible?"

"Of course you can. After all, this is the power that comes with a wish."

It cannot be said to be a golden finger for time travel, but it is a very convenient excuse to come to this world. After all, making a wish is an opportunity that every girl will get when she becomes a magical girl.

"I see, you're a messenger. No wonder you can influence the witch."

"Messenger? What's that?"

"Eh? Ah, maybe it's because the terms are different between countries. Here, we call the object of a magical girl's wish the messenger of this girl."

"After all, it's usually only people with whom one has a close relationship who would make a wish for someone else, so to some extent, the actions of the messenger can be viewed in the same way as the corresponding magical girl."

"Hmm? Is that what this country is called?"

For a setting he had never heard of before, Zhixing was once again confused by the differences between this world and the anime.

"No, no, that's not it. Well, you see, witches have familiars, so magical girls can't have a familiar companion, right?"

Mami explained awkwardly, "So, as a distinction, the companions of the magical girls who share their power can be called messengers, right?"

After listening to the explanation, Zhixing recalled a little and it seemed that Mami had a second character named Chunibyo?

So Zhixing brought the topic back.

"Let's get back to the point. Although I've arrived at Mitakihara, which is still intact, I don't have the local currency, nor do I have a place to live."

"So, can you please let me stay here for a while until the events of Witch Night are over?"

Chapter 14: IQ is not enough, but accidents make up for it

After saying so much, his purpose was to get closer to her, Mami thought to herself, but she didn't show it on her face.

"So, how far away is the future you came from from now?"

Although Mami didn't believe this statement, she still asked according to what Paper Line said.

"It's been a few years, probably. The guy who found out about Mitakihara didn't tell me the exact time. After all, going back to the past doesn't require my participation."

As is the common practice in society, after the interviewee introduces himself and his specialties, it is the interviewer's turn to ask questions and answer them.

Although both sides were unfamiliar with this, they cooperated very well.
