Toyokawa Shoko doesn't want to become a witch

Moreover, Miaomeng's expression was a bit off.

Somewhat strange. qhi (two) Umbrella Bell? Jiuqi (things)

What exactly is she trying to do?

Xiangzi, carrying Alina, followed Miaomeng's footsteps toward the customs.

But she was still holding Alina's body, and it was difficult to walk fast in crowded places. She could only watch helplessly as Miaomeng's figure got further and further away from her.

His heart started pounding for no reason, as if something was about to happen. Xiangzi bit his lip, watching Miaomeng's figure grow smaller and smaller in the distance.

“(Meow Dream.)”

“（.......）”

"(A cat dream?)"

“（.......）”

"(Can you hear me? Say something.)"

Xiangzi tried to contact Miaomeng by speaking, but received no response after several attempts. Miaomeng could definitely hear him, but she didn't respond.

The feeling of unease became more pronounced.

She saw Meow Dream approach Medine and walk into the VIP channel of customs together with Medine.

If Meowmon wants to get rid of Medien without anyone noticing, the best opportunity is when she passes through the crowded ordinary passage.

But Meow Dream followed behind Medine and hesitated to make a move.

Now that we're in the almost deserted VIP area, whatever we do will be seen immediately. If we try to do something like this, we have to be prepared to lose our lives.

What exactly is Miaomeng trying to do?

Xiangzi's breathing became heavier and heavier.

A possibility she never dared to even think about suddenly popped into her mind.

No, impossible. There's absolutely no possibility of that happening. She didn't believe Miaomeng would—

Xiangzi's eyes widened suddenly as he watched Medine pass through customs, and then... it was Miaomeng, holding her passport, who followed closely behind Medine and passed through customs.

--betray.

The Tale of Reincarnation: The Path of Fall, the Road of No Return: Chapter 656 Betrayal?

When Mujica's group arrived at Xiangzi's side, they saw her standing like a log, holding Alina and staring blankly in the direction of the customs.

Xiangzi stared intently in the direction Miaomeng had left, his arms around Alina growing weak.

"What happened?" Hailing looked around. "Why can't I see Miaomeng?"

"..." Xiangzi silently closed his mouth, his face ashen, and said, "The Meow Dream has passed through customs."

“We still have arrest warrants, how could we possibly get through customs?” Hailing raised an eyebrow. “…Unless Rebecca’s boss has already lifted the warrants for us.”

"Should we give it a try too?" Chu Hua suggested.

“There are many people at the Pentagon with the authority to lift a few minor arrest warrants,” Xiangzi said in a low voice. “It wasn’t Rebecca’s boss who took care of Miaomeng’s passport.”

"What?" Hailing didn't hear clearly.

“Xiang means, did Miaomeng betray us?” Mu said.

"..." Xiangzi didn't reply, but simply nodded quietly.

"What do you mean?" Hailing walked around to Xiangzi's front, blocking everything in her eyes. "You'd better explain yourself. What did Miaomengzi do?"

Upon hearing the word "betrayal," Hailing's expression changed instantly.

This wasn't the first time Hailing had been betrayed; she thought of Ono Mari, the person she had once trusted implicitly.

The agreement with Xiangzi bound her to this team. In fact, after the Nirvana Incident in Luweiyuan, Hailing had already vaguely regarded this small team as her home.

She felt this was a place worth staying in.

Betrayal means that this team, this place, even this "home," has developed an irreparable rift.

Hailing needed to confirm whether she had misheard.

“She betrayed us.” Xiangzi repeated what he had said before, and the air pressure around them suddenly dropped. “She went through customs with Medine, do you understand?”

"How could she possibly—"

"Nothing is impossible." Xiangzi turned his head away, not daring to look Hailing in the eye.

Suddenly, it seemed like she could no longer trust anyone.

“I saw her go through customs with Medine with my own eyes,” Xiangzi said. “Medine also has connections in the Pentagon, and may have even more power than Rebecca’s boss. It would be too easy for her to get Miaomeng through customs.”

"But why? Why would Miaomeng betray us?" Chu Hua frowned, looking in the direction Miaomeng had left.

"Magic?" Mu looked up and asked.

"No...that's right."

Xiangzi's first thought was to deny it, but then she nodded.

“There’s ‘magic’ in Medine’s words, it’s not a lie,” Xiangzi said weakly. “Miaomeng must have been convinced by her.”

The ability to manipulate people's consciousness with rhythmic language, making them violent, calm, or unlike themselves, perhaps aligns more closely with the magic Xiangzi knew as a child.

“We’ve confirmed she’s just an ordinary person. Your only magical girl bodyguard is now lying in your arms.” Hailing frowned.

“It’s not real magic,” Xiangzi sighed. “It’s a specific ‘grammar’ that she discovered that can activate certain areas of the human brain. The massacres that occurred wherever she went were due to this grammar. It’s a technology that has nothing to do with the incubators.”

“If Medine can find the grammar that caused the massacre, she can certainly find the grammar that dominates other modules. It’s very likely that Meow Dream was convinced by her in this way.”

Even if Xiangzi refuses to admit it now, there's nothing that can be done.

Miaomeng was truly bewitched by her words.

“You mean,” Hailing said, “that Miaomeng’s betrayal wasn’t her own will, but rather that she was controlled by Medien in a special way, is that what you mean? Then why weren’t you affected by her? If you know all this, you must have also come into contact with Medien who has the memories.”

"I don't know." Xiangzi still didn't dare to look at Hailing. "I really don't know. What I just said was just guessing."

If she doesn't use this method to convince herself, she might not be able to trust anyone anymore, including herself.

"—Uh, what are you talking about? Who betrayed us?"

Just then, Rebecca's voice finally arrived, albeit belatedly.

She seemed to have been delayed for a while because of something, and was now slowly catching up with them.

“Yutenji Ruomai,” Xiangzi said through gritted teeth, “she went through customs with Medien, and I have to say it a few more times—”

"—But she gave me this."

Rebecca popped out from behind them and handed them a notebook, only then noticing that Xiangzi was holding Alina with both hands and couldn't take the notebook from her.

"Give it to me." Chu Hua reached out and took the notebook.

Opening the seemingly battle-hardened notebook, one finds it filled with densely written content that is enough to make one's head spin.

Various languages ​​and scripts, phonetic symbols, and separators, like an extremely complex musical score, were written from the first page to almost the last.

"Xiao Xiang, do you recognize this?" Chu Hua handed the notebook to Xiangzi so she could see it clearly. "Is it evidence?"

Yes.

Xiangzi realized it almost immediately.

Without a doubt, this is evidence documenting the grammar of massacres, and direct evidence of the many atrocities Medine has committed in so many countries.

Although it's not a list, this can still serve as evidence.

"Where did you get this?" Xiangzi asked Rebecca.

“Miss Yutenji gave me this notebook before she left,” Rebecca said honestly. “She said it was evidence.”

She took out her phone and showed her call history.

"I called my boss on my way here, and he'll send someone over to collect the evidence. I estimate our arrest warrant will be withdrawn in a little while."

“She got Medion’s notebook and gave you the evidence.” Xiangzi’s eyes widened. “You were so slow to catch up because you were reporting to your boss.”

"Oh, right." Rebecca was confused by what she said.

what happened?

"Then why is she with Medine? Ah!" Xiangzi suddenly understood. "I know what she's up to!"

It's likely that Medine has indeed been trying to win over Miaomeng behind Xiangzi's back.

As for Meow Dream, she agreed to Medine's proposal, or at least outwardly agreed.

She did not betray anyone.

Miao Meng never intended to betray anyone, but she still had her own ideas, some of which Xiangzi would absolutely not agree to if he knew them.

She wanted to take down Medinee all by herself, without dragging anyone else down with her.

The Tale of Reincarnation: The Path of Fall, the Road of No Return: Chapter 657 Acting on One's Own Decisions

After seeing the evidence left behind by Miaomeng, Xiangzi finally understood what this guy was really up to.

She and Medine must have discussed many things she didn't know when they were on the third floor—things that Medine believed only Meow Dream could discuss with her.

Although Xiangzi didn't know what they were discussing, she was certain that Medine had tried to win Miaomeng over during the conversation, and that this attempt had definitely led Miaomeng to a new plan that she herself was unaware of—or rather, even if she knew it now, she would never agree to it.

If you hand the notebook to Rebecca and tell her that it is very important evidence, Rebecca will definitely notify her people as soon as possible and instruct them to come and obtain the evidence.

During this period, a certain information gap developed between Rebecca and herself.

By the time this information gap was filled, Miaomeng and Medine had already passed through customs and disappeared without a trace.

In this way, she severed ties with herself and with all of them, officially "betraying" Medine's side.

After that, whatever she did was done in her own name, and had nothing to do with herself or anyone else.

Even if she killed a senior executive of an international public relations firm in front of the whole world, people would only see it as an internal conflict between them, and it would have nothing to do with Xiangzi.

This is the kind of "betrayal" that the cat dreams of.

Having figured this out, Xiangzi couldn't wait to rush out of customs, leave Miaomeng behind, and give her a good lesson.

But she couldn't; she held back.

Rebecca submitted enough evidence to have their arrest warrants revoked, and they would be able to pass through customs in a few minutes.

Miao Meng did this because she wanted to make herself one step behind her.

Xiangzi rubbed his back teeth and told everyone his guess.

I've said it so many times already, don't act on your own initiative anymore.

But Miaomeng never listens.

Like a stray cat picked up from who-knows-where, most of the time it is obedient and well-behaved, but you never know what it is thinking. Maybe one day the window is not closed tightly, and it will never come back.

She completely disregards me, doesn't she?

Xiangzi's anger was like a leaking gas stove bursting from a high-pressure tank, just short of exploding with a bang.

"But there's already evidence, why is Miaomeng still doing this?" Chu Hua asked, puzzled, after hearing Xiangzi's explanation. "With evidence, wouldn't we be able to arrest Medien directly?"

"Does having evidence guarantee that we can catch her? I doubt it," Hai Ling shook her head.

Knowing that Miaomeng hadn't betrayed her, Hailing breathed a long sigh of relief, and her thoughts, along with her emotions, calmed down and became sharp again.

“Yes, Boss said this thing can help us drop the warrant, but getting Medine brought to justice…” Rebecca sighed, “I’m afraid that’s not possible.”

"why?"

"The notebook only proves what Medine has been doing all along—and the massacres she has spread have probably been tacitly approved by many of the bigwigs above," Xiangzi said.

"Tacit approval?!" Chu Hua's eyes widened. "Such a cruel thing was actually tacitly approved?"

"The research into the grammar of massacre was itself driven by those high-ranking figures. Their initial purpose was to monitor the countries and regions they were exploiting to see if there was any possibility of riots," Xiangzi explained. "Do you remember how the Twin Towers were destroyed?"

"Hijacking a plane and crashing it into a building," Mu said softly.

Xiangzi and the others discussed for a long time, and this was the only chance she had to join in the conversation.
