Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 432 Your Friend
Jiu Yue just thought about it silently in her heart but didn't say it out loud.

At least not until she had a complete story.

At the same time, she felt somewhat happy in her heart because she gradually understood it all - this time, she truly entered Duan Mingyuan's heart, both physically and spiritually.

Jiu Yue realized that the doubts about the "black mud" and the void demon were affecting Duan Mingyuan's judgment.

Even if they are not true, just like the news of the annihilation of the Imperial Hunting Court Hunter Team mentioned by Dajiang, they will subtly change Duan Mingyuan's cognition.

Once Duan Mingyuan fell into deep thought along those lines and accusations, change had already occurred.

More and more NPCs that did not exist originally will be generated in the "deep memory" to support his ideas. Once he accepts these views in his subconscious mind, they will become facts that are bound to happen.

Therefore, at this critical moment of life and death, the storyteller Jiu Yue was given the task and was given a limited time to perform.

Jiu Yue conjured up a wake-up stick and a folding fan like a juggler. Her clothes also changed randomly. Her evening gown turned into a traditional Blue Star robe. Her long hair was tied into a long ponytail, and her brows also showed a bit of heroic spirit.

Back when she was on the Mechanical Star, Mr. Ming Yuan had taught her how to use the consciousness space, and now it came in handy.

"What are you doing?"

Duan Mingyuan saw the change in Jiu Yue and asked in confusion.

"It's September now (Storyteller Special Edition), so cherish it. If you put it in a pay-to-win mobile game, it will cost 168 shells for the skin!"

September's fighting spirit was ignited and she was now full of a sense of mission.

Before they knew it, the two had followed high school Duan Mingyuan into the subway station. Looking around the station, almost all of them were students wearing the same school uniform, with a few parents here and there.

Most of them were students from the same class, walking together and talking about strange stories they had heard recently.

Only Duan Mingyuan chose the last carriage and buried his head in studying with a notebook in his hand.

For everyone on the platform, it was a normal evening.

The students are seizing the time to enjoy their leisure time after school. Once they return home, they have to face mountains of homework. Duan Mingyuan begins another journey to exorcise evil spirits.

"Mr. Mingyuan, I remember you mentioned before that you were preparing to enter the industry in the future."

September suddenly spoke.

Duan Mingyuan once seriously considered exorcising evil spirits as his future career, so he went to various places where evil spirits were present, which was equivalent to his joining interest clubs, but his interests were somewhat different from those of most of his peers.

The price of dealing with evil spirits for a long time is that one's whole body is covered with negative energy, and even Duan Mingyuan is no exception.

"This manifests itself in daily life as people around you thinking you are a gloomy man, and after spending a long time with you, they can't help but associate you with some bad things."

Jiu Yue brought up a theory she had heard in the Hunter's Guild. Based on this theory, it is not difficult to know that the vast majority of hunters are lonely throughout their lives. Even if they retire, get married and have children, they almost always look for colleagues in the same industry, which has formed a relatively closed circle of hunters.

Before the fall of the Imperial Hunting Court, many respected hunters came from hunting families, and their ancestors were all in this line of work.

"Why do you say that suddenly?"

Duan Mingyuan always felt that Jiu Yue's expression was a little subtle. Although it seemed that she was popularizing some trivia about the industry, there was always a feeling of sympathy and pity.

"So relax, it's not your fault that you don't have any friends."

When Duan Mingyuan was wondering if there were any other suspicious people in the carriage, Jiu Yue noticed that he was standing at the end of the carriage, which was in stark contrast to the happy students in the carriage. She continued with scientific knowledge, "The evil yin energy will infect humans. People who come into contact with the yin energy will involuntarily think of some horrible things and stay away from you. But in fact, you have a good personal image. In high school, you can be seen as a trustworthy and charismatic senior. If I was studying in this high school at that time, I would definitely have a crush on you."

"…Are you trying to comfort me?"

“No, these are all scientifically based.”

Jiu Yue smiled, but Duan Mingyuan was speechless for a long time.

He could feel September's intentions, but this was probably what people often said about using a warm tone to say something particularly heartbreaking. His attention was not originally on the atmosphere in the car, but now after September's words, he also noticed his own situation.

This directly affected his subconscious mind, making him realize that the way the adults in the car looked at him had changed.

Eyes full of sympathy.

It was as if they had already determined that he was the kind of teenager who was isolated and bullied in school, so he could only focus on studying and find some spiritual comfort in the virtual world.

At the same time, family relationships may be tense, with no grandparents to pick up the child after school. Perhaps the child is a lonely teenager who has been accustomed to taking the subway home alone since junior high school.

These changes made Duan Mingyuan feel heavy-hearted.

September set an example for all the adults in the car.

She hugged Duan Mingyuan's shoulders warmly and let him lean on her shoulders. Even in the space of consciousness, there was real temperature and touch. "It's okay, Mr. Mingyuan, everything will be fine."

"I think you may have misunderstood."

Duan Mingyuan had to make a statement, "Although I didn't have many friends in high school, I was definitely not bullied."

In his impression, their high school is a key school in the district and there is no bullying culture in the class.

At best, he rarely spoke to his classmates, and because he spent all his spare time developing future career skills, he knew nothing about many of the popular cartoons and games that his classmates talked about.

"Mr. Mingyuan, do you think there is a possibility that I once studied in your high school, but you just didn't realize it?"

September whispered, for example, I am actually sitting on the chair over there, I have always been secretly in love with you and have been following you home silently.

"No, there is absolutely no such possibility."

The high school September did not appear on the chair opposite. Not all settings that suddenly appeared could affect Duan Mingyuan's subconscious mind. "Besides, you sound like a yandere."

"What's wrong with being a yandere?"

September's eyes are sparkling, and she is always good at discovering the shining points of human nature.

Although the yandere's methods are a bit scary and difficult for ordinary people to accept, it is not a lie that they have devoted their wholehearted love.

"You should focus on whether there are any suspicious people in this carriage. We are doing serious business now."

"This is business."

September said, "There is nothing more important than this right now."
