The Divine Power of Comprehensive Comics

Xia Qing bumped Index's shoulder with her elbow.

"...Okay, this girl who looks like a witch is actually not a witch but a magician, so what? Just be quiet."

Chapter 42 When talking about witches, they think of chewing wine, right? (2/4)

"What? You are actually cruel to me...!"

The girl's eyes widened with tears accumulating in her pupils, and she looked at Xia Qing in disbelief.

"When did I hurt you? Don't talk nonsense."

Xia Qing replied.

"Woo..."

Index threw her head to the side angrily, and then under the table, Xia Qing's feet were stepped on several times.

"Huh? That's..."

The moment she turned her face, Index seemed to see something, and then turned her head again.

Nearly ten people had already walked over from the other side. Even in the crowded store, no customers noticed the presence of these people.

It's like completely eliminating his own existence, like a professional killer.

They wear the same suit. If they are in a crowded station, they can be inconspicuous and people can't remember their faces and names at all.

However, their eyes do not carry any emotion. Because they are so impersonal, they appear incompatible with the background.

"There's still a hundred yuan left."

The witch spoke.

She stood up quietly as she spoke, seemingly unwary of these people, even as if she saw the people she had arranged to meet here with a relaxed attitude.

One of these people took a step back to make way, and the other respectfully took out a one-hundred-yen coin and handed it to the miko.

"Are these people you know?"

As if he didn't understand the situation at all, Xia Qingming, who had this attitude, asked knowingly.

The witch's eyes turned around and wandered away from Xia Qing for a moment, as if she was thinking about something.

"Well, they are cram school teachers."

The voice sounded very natural.

The miko walked towards the stairs leading to the first floor. Nearly ten men followed silently like shadows and bodyguards.

The familiar noises and music from the cable broadcast seemed to come from far away, and their timbre became blurry.

After the miko's figure completely disappeared, Index slowly spoke out.

"What a strange person..."

——————————————————————————————————

The afternoon passed very quickly. During this period, Xia Qing and the girl named Saten Ruiko were chatting so passionately that the silver-haired girl kept bulging her cheeks and stepping on Xia Qing's feet.

After Xia Qing noticed this, he stretched out his hand to scratch Index's creaky nest so that she would not dare to harass him again.

Through the conversation with Saten Ruiko, Xia Qing learned about the current situation of the "Fantasy Controller" that has been spreading around Academy City recently.

The current month is still in July, and the heat in the air is still lingering around.

She has been a student of Sagawa Middle School for a long time. Even though she came here to work part-time, Kozo Tenreko still wore the student uniform of Tokiwadai Middle School, but she had an extra hat on her head.

The student uniform was worn over the bookstore clerk's uniform. Although it was very thin, the two pieces overlapped and still caused a few drops of sweat to flow down the girl's cheeks.

After finishing their part-time job in the afternoon with a pleasant chat, Xia Qing took Index and started walking towards home.

"ah!"

Less than ten minutes after leaving the bookstore, Index, who was walking beside Xia Qing, suddenly stopped as if she saw something.

"Huh?"

Seeing the girl's sudden action, Xia Qing also followed her gaze and looked over.

At the root of the wind power generation column, there is a corrugated cardboard box. There is a kitten meowing in the cardboard box.

"Xia Qing! Cat——"

"I don't want to raise it, it's so troublesome."

Before Index could finish her words, Xia Qing immediately interrupted her.

"...Xia Qing, I haven't said anything yet."

"Cannot be raised."

"Why why why why? Why can't we have a sphinx?"

The girl who had even started to name the cat spoke eloquently.

"Why did you even pick a name? Even if you raise him till the end, I will still be the one who shovels shit. I strongly protest!"

Index immediately shouted to Xia Qing.

"Why dont you keep a cat! Do as you are told!" (Why don't you keep a cat! Do as you are told!)

"Do you think knowing a few words of English is a big deal?"

Xia Qing raised his eyebrows and immediately retorted.

"Don't think about it. It's impossible!"

"Ahhh, it's disgusting! I want to support, I want to support, I want to support, I want to support, I want to support!!"

Fake tears appeared in the corners of the girl's eyes, and she shouted to Xia Qing as if she was really crying.

The cat was frightened by the sound, crawled out of the carton and ran toward the parking lot.
