Her shoulders, revealed from her sleeveless shrine maiden costume, were stained with a few crystal water droplets, making her snow-white skin appear even more translucent. Under the sleeves wrapped around her forearms, her slender and graceful figure and delicate body were set off against each other.
Especially when contrasted with the food wrapped in a plastic bag in her hands, the originally cold and ethereal feeling of alienation was given a touch of the earthly atmosphere.
Beneath the red miniskirt, two slender legs were also wrapped in black fabric, revealing the absolute area between the knees and the hem of the skirt. And with the combination of wooden clogs, the toes that should have been covered by the heavy tabi moon fei group: 爬杀? 噜衣偲) were now slightly pink in the socks.
However, under the raindrops that were occasionally blown sideways by the wind, the protection of the umbrella did not bring much effect. The cloth wrapped around the soles of the feet was still soaked by a little rain, leaving hazy wet marks on it, allowing the smooth and tender skin to be faintly visible.
But even so, the girl did not seem to be like an ordinary girl, complaining while trying to cover her body with an umbrella. She just stood quietly in front of him, silently staring at the young man in front of her with her crimson eyes.
The young man's own posture reflected in the gem-clear pupils made him widen his eyes slightly, and his body trembled slightly, as if he wanted to make some kind of reaction.
Was it because of the shame of being seen in such an embarrassing state by a young girl? Or was it because of the low self-esteem caused by the huge disparity in their status?
A hesitant expression appeared on his face, but seeing that the girl seemed to be still waiting for his response and had no intention of leaving, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
As if he was making some kind of fateful decision, he slowly raised the broken bowl in his hand and asked.
"Give me some?"
It seemed that even the sound of raindrops hitting the ground paused for a second before the rustling sound started again.
Chizuru Yuzen's eyelids in front of him twitched suddenly, and then she subconsciously wanted to raise her hands to reach into her chest, but her hands were unable to be free because of the food and the umbrella, so she had to take a step back and put on guard.
Moreover, her voice, which was as sweet as a lark, became much colder.
"What are you doing here, Outer Devil?"
"beg?"
Ji Hui blinked and couldn't help but look down at the broken bowl he had picked up from the trash can.
"I thought this appearance should have been obvious."
His mumbling made the girl's brows frown even deeper.
But he didn't seem to care at all. He just threw the bowl to the ground, looked at the alert girl in front of him again, scratched his messy hair, and spoke.
"Also, don't call me that."
Perhaps because he was tired of listening, an expression of impatience appeared on his face.
"Besides, have you ever seen an extraterritorial demon begging for food on the street?"
However, Chizuru Yuzen did not relax at all. She just stared at Ji Hui in front of her and asked in a cold tone.
"How could the demon from outside the domain beg for food here like a beggar? The mere appearance of a being like you will bring disaster to everything around you."
Her words also made Ji Hui look around at the empty streets around him and roll his eyes.
"Which eye of yours saw the disaster that befell this neighborhood?"
"Did you do the theft at Xiluoyuan Mall a while ago, when the security guard was attacked and knocked unconscious?"
"I had no choice. My clothes were no longer wearable. I couldn't just keep running around naked on the street, could I? So I had to sneak in to find some clothes to wear. Unfortunately, I ran into a patrolling security guard."
"How do you explain the Tomorrow Road Optical Shop at the beginning?"
"I only broke a piece of glass, but the damage that followed was caused by your own fireball."
Ji Hui curled his lips slightly, then seemed to remember something and spoke as well.
"Oh, by the way, those talismans of yours are quite useful, otherwise I couldn't even start a fire in the first few days."
"As for why I have to go there, it seems that my ability can only be blocked by wearing glasses. Otherwise, I can't control the switch myself. And I have no money. Apart from doing that, there is no other way."
Ji Hui gently poked the bridge of his glasses with his fingers, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
"Or, having experienced my ability firsthand, do you want me to just wander the streets with it running wild?"
"you"
Suddenly, with the other party's reminder, the suppressed memories that surged up from the bottom of her heart made the girl's cheeks turn red, and her hands began to tremble in shame and anger.
However, with her good self-control, she still endured the restless feeling in her heart, looked at Ji Hui with hatred, and asked in an even colder tone.
"Well, there have been a lot of conflicts in the alleys recently, and many of the thugs who are entrenched there have been injured."
"I can't do anything about it. I watched them drag the little girl in there by force. I can't just ignore it, right?"
"As for the money I got from them, I went back and secretly gave it to the mall and the optical shop. Although it's a bit less than the damage, it's still all I have. Otherwise, why do you think I'd be sitting here begging in the rain?"
As he narrated, the expression on the girl's face became more and more strange.
But Ji Hui didn't seem to care much. He just raised his hand and waved at her.
"Oh, by the way, since we're so lucky to meet, could you please give me one of the cucumbers in your bag? I haven't eaten all day."
The self-righteous tone and the innocent expression that seemed completely unaware of the tense atmosphere made Chizuru Hazen clench her fists even tighter.
Chapter 9: Chizuru Hazen's Question
To be fair, after a few days of exploration, Ji Hui has basically understood his own abilities. He is no longer like he was at the beginning, completely clueless about everything and could only run away desperately.
He had already memorized the extent to which this ability could be used and the effects it could achieve through his battles with those girls who were still tirelessly chasing him while he was trying to make a living.
Therefore, when facing Chizuru Hazen who had also chased him, he did not flee in panic, but remained calm and composed.
What's more, although his ability is quite unorthodox, he has not used it for any evil purpose and has used it with caution.
Anyway, I have nothing to feel guilty about. Moreover, if the other party really wants to fight again, I am not at all vulnerable.
His overly reasonable explanation and self-righteous words made Chizuru Yuzen not know how to respond to the request for a cucumber from the evil demon in front of her, who should have been eliminated as soon as possible.
After all, the other party has not shown any hostility so far. Otherwise, I would have thrown away the things in my hand, taken out the talisman and destroyed the other party.
But her silence made Ji Hui think that she was resisting, and he couldn't help but complain to the crowd: "Come on."
"Hey, I've answered so many of your questions honestly. You wouldn't even give me a cucumber, would you?"
"Let me be clear first. I'm not some criminal or anything like that. Don't take it for granted that I can answer your questions."
This guy
His words, as if he was the bad guy, made Chizuru Yuzen's eyelids twitch violently. Resisting the urge to punch him in the face, she took out a cucumber and a pack of wet wipes from her plastic bag and handed them to his raised hand.
"The cucumbers are washed before being sealed, so there's no need to wipe them again."
Looking at the other person wiping his hands with a wet towel and peeling off the plastic wrap, Chizuru Hazen spoke in a stiff tone.
"Also, along with this pack of tissues, answer a few more questions for me."
"Paper towels"
Ji Hui, who was chewing a cucumber with a crunching sound, glanced at her plastic bag with some hesitation, as if thinking about what else she could chew directly into her stomach. Finally, she nodded with some hesitation.
“Although I’d rather have something to eat or something.”
"If you answer honestly, I'll go back to the convenience store and buy a hot bento."
The way the other person stared at her bag eagerly made Chizuru Yuzen suppress the urge to complain and spoke.
"Deal! Don't worry, sister! I'll tell you everything I know!"
Ji Hui's eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded vigorously.
After all, he was indeed in a very embarrassing situation. No matter what, he was an illegal resident in this world and there was very little he could do.
Therefore, although he was trying his best to make a living, he still had no choice but to sleep under the bridge.
If you can get a box lunch that can last you a day or two just by asking a few questions, it would be a great deal.
Such an evil demon should be the mortal enemy of these magical girls, why did it become like this?
Although I am not qualified to be called a magical girl, I am just a shrine maiden who gave up her mission and worked for money.
Chizuru Yuzen took a deep breath, suppressed the slight melancholy in her heart, and then asked.
"First of all, why are you begging here?"
“Because I have no money.”
Ji Hui said as a matter of course, making Chizuru Yuzen's expression even weirder.
"Why do you have no money?"
Because he was really hungry, Ji Hui stuffed the cucumber stem into his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it.
"Nonsense, because I don't have any identification at all. I'm a complete illegal in this world."
"I can't find a job, and I have no other source of income. In this situation, isn't it just begging?"
"No, no, no, how could that be possible? How could a demon from outside the realm like you be reduced to being penniless?"
However, Chizuru Hazen didn't seem to be willing to believe it at all. She shook her head desperately and spoke anxiously.
"Whether it's using abilities or something else, there should be many ways to get money, right?!"
"First of all, let me reiterate once again that I am not some extraterritorial demon. This title was unilaterally given to me by you."
Seeing that the other party still didn't seem to trust him, Ji Hui couldn't help but sigh and said helplessly.
"I was just traveling by car in my original world. When I woke up, I had no idea why I ended up in the cave."
"As soon as I emerged, I was attacked by a girl dressed similarly to you, shouting about some extraterritorial demon. I felt wronged."
"No... Impossible. It's because the fallen demons of the Broken Star Palace held a sacrifice there that we went there to try to stop them."
However, Chizuru Hazen shook her head violently and said in a firm disbelief, causing Ji Hui to blink involuntarily.
"What is the Broken Star Palace? And what is the Fallen Demon?"
Although he had indeed encountered several attacks, those girls seemed to be extremely stubborn. They almost stared at him until he fainted several times, but they still refused to answer his questions honestly.
During his contact, Ji Hui also discovered that for ordinary people, these super powers seemed unclear, which made him at a loss as to where to start for a while.
He doesn't sound like a good person. Could he be the villain of this world or something?
"The Star-Breaking Palace is an enemy from another world, an evil force that seeks to capture the planet's power and take it for themselves. The Fallen Demons are the bloodthirsty monsters they created as soldiers."
Chizuru Hazen answered subconsciously, and then seemed to realize something, her eyes widened, and she looked at Ji Hui in front of her with some astonishment who was thinking about something.
"Wait!? You don't know about the Broken Star Palace!?"
"Of course I don't know. Since I came to this world, I've been busy trying to survive and sleeping under bridges, except for avoiding you shrews who want to fight me at the sight of you. How can I care about these things?"
Seeing the other party's eyes that looked as if he was a country bumpkin, Ji Hui also spread his hands and his tone became a little unhappy.
"What's more, because of your companions' interference, the brick-moving hourly job that I managed to sneak in last time was also ruined. I really don't know what you crazy women are thinking."
But this time, Yuzen Chizuru didn't care about his somewhat unfriendly tone, but her expression became a little solemn, and she stared at Ji Hui in front of her.
"Are you sure that when you didn't know about the Broken Star Palace and the Fallen Demon, they never came looking for you?"
"No, except for women like you who have strange abilities and are eager to get rid of me, no one has come to me."
Ji Hui shook his head and sighed after finally finding someone he could complain to.
"Rather, I'm just an unlucky guy who accidentally traveled through time and space. Not only do I have no identity, but I also ended up messing with a bunch of crazy women. No matter how you look at it, I'm the one who's more miserable."
However, after finally being approached by someone who knew the situation and didn't kill himself right away, Ji Hui also asked curiously.
"So who are you guys anyway? I admit that this ability I gained for no apparent reason isn't very friendly to girls, but it shouldn't be that malicious, right?"
However, Chizuru Hazen did not answer his question, but just stood there with a frown on her face.
The demon from outside the domain in front of him did not look like he was lying at all, but if that was the case, what was the reason for the recent missing persons case in Yanming City?
"Hello? Hello? Are you listening?"
Seeing that the other party did not respond to him at all, Ji Hui stood up from the stairs and waved his hand, asking with some confusion.
His voice made Yuzen Chizuru grit her teeth slightly. After looking at Ji Hui with some complexity for a while, she also spoke.
"Come with me, I have something to ask you, it's not convenient to talk here."
Chapter 10 Magical Girl
Seeing that she seemed to be about to turn around and leave, Ji Hui couldn't help but be stunned and quickly spoke.
"Hey! Don't leave!? No, then does my lunch box still count?!"
"I'll get you something better, just keep following me. I promise you'll eat until you throw up."
Chizuru Hazen glared at him, took a deep breath, and then spoke slowly.
"As for your question just now"
"My identity is that of a magical girl."
