Persona: Devil Summoner

Wu Jianmiao said this. Jiang Tianwei shrugged and thought: You really don't believe me!

But not only Wu Jian didn't believe this strange experience, even if someone else told Jiang Tianwei about it, he wouldn't believe it either!

"Anyway, drink this first."

As Wu Jian Miao spoke, he handed over a cup of liquid that looked very strange. Has anyone seen the so-called dark dishes in anime? Just imagine it that way.

The purple liquid exudes a luster like that of crystal. If you shake the cup gently, it will hang on the glass wall... Can you really drink this thing?

"Will it be okay if I drink it?"

Jiang Tianwei asked the question that he would ask every time.

"Have you purchased accidental death insurance?"

Wu Jianmiao would always ask back casually.

"No."

"That's it. I don't even have the motive to kill for money anymore."

"This premise is weird, isn't it? Even if I buy insurance, I can't list you, the doctor, as the beneficiary!"

As he spoke, Jiang Tianwei took off his coat, revealing his upper body. Due to frequent part-time jobs, his body was quite strong. While Wu Jianmiao was talking, he pasted various patches on him, which could transmit the subtle changes in Jiang Tianwei's body to the machine through wires.

Judging from the familiar interaction between the two, it is obvious that they have come here to try the medicine countless times.

Jiang Tianwei waited for her to finish attaching the instrument, and without saying anything, he raised the cup and drank it all. Then he lay down on the flat bed at the side. According to his experience of many drug trials, Wu Jian's drug would not be fatal, but it would occasionally cause some effects that could make people faint...

For example, one time, the medicine she gave herself would produce a foul odor in the gastric juice... How bad was it? It was like you took ten cans of herrings and threw a grenade into them, which would shatter them with a bang. The stench that burst out instantly would directly trigger the body's protective mechanism...

By the way, that was the only time that Dr. Takemi himself was so horrified by the smell that he had to run outside and wait for a long time.

This time, the medicine didn't seem to have any special effect. Lying on the flat bed, Jiang Tianwei didn't feel any discomfort, but he felt more and more sleepy...

In a daze, he fell asleep again.

Fortunately, this time he did not dream about an old man in a wheelchair in red clothes, nor did he dream about any strange blue velvet tones. Instead, he seemed to have fainted, his eyelids went dark, and he knew nothing.

Chapter 12 Can your cat talk?

There is a saying that a person only needs 4 hours of deep sleep a day to cope with the energy consumption of the whole day.

The point of this sentence is not four hours, but deep sleep.

It is said that the famous genius Leonardo da Vinci several centuries ago used an even more extreme sleeping method, working for four hours and then sleeping for fifteen minutes. If you do the math, that means he only rested for about an hour and a half a day.

Efficient sleep will have a better recovery effect. This is why some people feel that after a tiring day, their sleep quality improves and they have a good night's sleep, so they don't feel tired the next day.

Now Jiang Tianwei has truly experienced this deep sleep.

After waking up, he moved his body and listened to the crackling sound of his joints, which was particularly refreshing. The various patches on his hands and feet had been put away by Wu Jianmiao in advance. There was no need to worry about stretching the lines.

Wu Jianmiao was not in the room, probably at the counter outside. When she had nothing to do, she would sit at the counter and wait. She would write down various medical formulas that high school students could not understand in her notebook, while waiting for the next person to come and get medicine.

Generally speaking, only people from the community come to see community doctors, so they are all familiar faces. Some people say that compared with large hospitals, community doctors need not be professional, but friendly. This statement is perfectly demonstrated by Wu Jian - but it is a negative demonstration.

Because Wu Jianmiao always looks cold and indifferent to everyone, when he comes to get medicine, he always prescribes some medicines that are very professional and effective but of unknown brands, and he even mixes the medicines for the patients himself.

Although these drugs are very effective, everyone still starts to worry... This is why Takemi Internal Medicine Hospital is always deserted, which is a good thing for Jiang Tianwei. If this place is very popular, wouldn't he have one less job?

Since the other party didn't have time, Jiang Tianwei didn't stay any longer. He picked up his neatly folded shirt and coat from the bedside and put them on. Fang Zexia's spirit sat on Wu Jianmiao's chair, crossed her legs, and stared at Jiang Tianwei with an arrogant expression.

"What are you looking at?"

"(stare)"

"Uh, what happened?"

Although everyone says there is a generation gap every three years, this also depends on the situation. For boys and girls in this age group, let alone the three-year age difference, the gender difference alone is enough to create a gap that makes it difficult for them to understand each other.

"Hey - I thought you liked this look!"

Fang Zexia seemed to be unable to hold it in any longer. This kind of pretending to be profound was really not suitable for a girl like her who had youth and vitality written all over her forehead.

"How can it be……"

Jiang Tianwei put on his clothes and looked at the time. It was almost six o'clock in the evening.

Fang Zexia also jumped up from her chair with a smile and followed him.

Having said that, it seems like I have been sleeping all day, sleeping all the time... When he thought about how he had wasted the day and didn't make any money, he couldn't help but start thinking: What will I do in the future? Although I am Chinese, I can't go back to my country without a passport. Living in Japan, what kind of job can I find in the future? People discriminate against me as a foreigner! Then how can I eat? Can I pay the rent? Can I find a wife? What about my children's schooling in the future?

It seems that a foreigner who was bored to death did a research. The biggest difference between Chinese and foreigners is in thinking mode. Chinese people always like to think about stability or instability. The future life can be ordinary or mediocre, but at least they have to be able to think of a comfortable path that is enough to reach the end of their life.

Therefore, they don't like challenges or adventures, but prefer a calm and peaceful life. Jiang Tianwei is a bit like this now. Although he is still a high school student (on leave of absence), he has already started to worry about the distant future.

The only thing he could do to ease his anxiety was to quickly get dressed and leave. He chose to escape. As always, he escaped from this anxiety about the future by arranging a lot of things for himself, leaving him with no room for thinking.

As soon as he went out, he saw a student from Shujin Academy talking to Takemiya. He had black curly hair, black wide-rimmed glasses, and in his backpack... for some reason, there was a beautiful black cat, which poked its head out of the zipper and lay on his shoulder.

"...You're awake, little white mouse."

Wu Jianmiao moved his eyes away from the curly-haired boy and looked at Jiang Tianwei.

Jiang Tianwei yawned, not caring about the presence of outsiders, and asked, "Today's portion?"

Wu Jianmiao casually picked up an envelope from the table and handed it over: "I have already deducted the accommodation fee from you."

"How stingy, doctor..."

Having said that, Jiang Tianwei still snatched the envelope full of banknotes like a robber.

"Woo! Cat! So cute!"

Fang Zexia noticed the cat behind the boy at a glance, floated over, and reached out to touch the cat's head.

"Um?!"

A peculiar voice that could not be distinguished as that of a boy or a high-pitched female voice suddenly sounded.

This voice obviously did not belong to Takemiya, nor did it belong to himself or Fang Zexia...

Yes, is it the voice of the curly-haired guy with glasses who looks like Harry Potter? Why would a man like him have such a voice?

It seemed that he noticed Jiang Tianwei's gaze: "Excuse me, what's wrong with me?"

The tone was gentle and steady, completely different from that sharp voice.

"Hmm... Is this an illusion? I feel like something is approaching me..."

The shrill voice rang out again.

Jiang Tianwei couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

A famous prosecutor once said that when we have eliminated all possibilities, the only answer left, no matter how unbelievable, is the only truth.

There are five living beings here. Wu Jian didn't speak, Fang Ze didn't speak, I didn't speak, and this curly-haired and bespectacled Harry Potter didn't speak either...

Then, the only possibility left is...

(This cat can talk?!)

I have the Yin-Yang Eyes, so I can see things that ordinary people can't see. The ghost of Kasumi Yoshizawa is a good example. Then, then, then it's not uncommon for me to see a talking cat demon? ! Is this a Nekomata? ! I can't confirm the number of tails...

He glanced at the curly-haired boy in front of him. He looked calm and composed. He didn't know whether he hadn't heard the cat speak human language or he had heard it before so he wasn't surprised. Jiang Tianwei pretended to be calm and said, "No, I just think this cat is pretty."

"Hey! I'm not a cat! Really, these people have no vision..."

Sure enough, the cat responded to what Jiang Tianwei had just said.

"Hey, the cat is talking!"

Fang Zexia obviously understood what they said. It seemed that these weird things could communicate with each other. Jiang Tianwei tried to pretend that he couldn't hear the cat talking and pretended to be calm. He didn't know who this boy was, what was going on, and this cat...

If you act rashly, what if this cat demon does something bad to you?

Moreover, although this is a bit harsh, I would rather die than die with my friend. I don't know this curly-haired man. To be honest, he provoked the cat demon himself, so shouldn't he bear the consequences himself? I am not an exorcist, and I have never learned Taoism. It is better not to get involved in such muddy water...

"Hey?"

When Jiang Tianwei was convincing himself in his heart, he suddenly noticed: "Have we met before?"

The boy with curly hair and glasses nodded shyly: "Yes, in Lubron this morning."

"Ah, it's you!"

Jiang Tianwei then remembered.

"Are you also a student at Shujin Academy?"

As soon as he saw the clothes of Xiujin Academy, Jiang Tianwei couldn't help but think of himself in prison just a few hours ago, when Sakamoto Ryuji watched him die without saving him... He couldn't help but go up to talk to him.

The boy with glasses responded and held out his hand to him: "My name is Amamiya Ren, please give me your guidance."

"Ah...ah, it's hard for me to teach you. Well, my name is Jiang Tianwei...Amamiya...?Amamiya...Len?"

I always feel like I've heard this name somewhere?

"Ah! You're the transfer student with ex--with money?!"

Chapter 13 The Strongest Scout

Jiang Tianwei doesn't think he is a particularly good planner.

He also vaguely remembered that before he came to Japan, his Chinese language teacher had emphasized the distinction between two characters in "Water Margin", Lu Zhishen and Li Kui. The teacher talked about it and said that Lu Zhishen was a representative of rough but delicate.

No matter which country or which course, for children, nothing is as interesting as "playing". Naturally, boring texts are far less popular with students than these excerpts from ancient novels. Jiang Tianwei also listened to this analysis and ran to his grandfather's bookcase to find the complete Water Margin. Every night, he stayed in bed with a flashlight and read the six volumes of hardcover illustrated Water Margin.

If we had to choose a character who is most similar to Jiang Tianwei's personality, it would definitely be Lu Zhishen.

He is straightforward, outspoken, and has certain plans, but he can hardly be called smart.

This time too, when he heard the other person's name was Amamiya Ren, he immediately thought of him as the problematic student who had been talked about in the student group for a long time!

That's why he blurted out that he was a student with a "criminal record."

This is what it means to speak your mind.

But he immediately realized that if he said this here, Dr. Takemiya would definitely hear it, and he would inevitably look at him with tinted glasses... So, halfway through the sentence, he forced himself to change it to "rich." Although he had no idea whether the other party was really rich.

"Ah? Ahahaha...then you must have confused me with someone else."

Amamiya Ren looked embarrassed, scratched her head, and looked confused.

No matter from which aspect, Amamiya Ren is not a rich person now. The most typical example is, have you ever seen a rich person squeezing into the subway to go to school all day long? If there is such a thing, then you have to wonder if this rich person has any special fetishes...

"Ah, ahahaha, sorry, wrong."

Seeing that the topic had become confusing, Jiang Tianwei just laughed it off and went out.

After all, the two people really have nothing in common, so there is no need to talk much. This is the so-called nodding acquaintance. When you meet, just nod to each other, and there is no need for in-depth communication.

but……

As soon as Jiang Tianwei walked out of the clinic, he leaned against the wall like a stereotypical spy in a spy movie and said in a low voice to Fang Zexia who had been following him: "Fang Ze, hurry up! Go inside and listen to what they are talking about."

"Oh! Got it! Sir!"

Infected by this atmosphere, Fang Zexia's eyes lit up. It was obvious that this ghost really liked this kind of thing. She imitated the soldiers and saluted, then used the special convenience of her ghost to quickly return to the Takemi Internal Medicine Hospital.

Seeing how excited she was, Jiang Tianwei even thought that this girl might not actually have any obsession with reality, and was just wandering around the world simply because she wanted to have fun?

Now it has been confirmed that Amamiya Ren is accompanied by a cat demon, so it is definitely necessary to understand what the cat demon wants to do.

Moreover, I can take advantage of this free time to organize my thoughts.

Because he had used up too much brain power in that weird castle, he couldn't think straight. As I said before, people like him, like Lu Zhishen, were not very good at thinking, not to mention that he couldn't think because of fatigue.

Now I am taking medicine here with Wu Jian and having a good rest for a few hours, and my mind is finally clear.

He bought a can of grape juice from a nearby vending machine, inserted a straw, and leaned against the wall. While using the sweet juice to relieve his inner fatigue, he thought about what had happened that day.

(No matter how you think about it, Sakamoto Ryuji is the breakthrough.)

He quickly found the breakthrough point.

Because it was obvious that he saw with his own eyes that Ryuji Sakamoto ran out of that strange castle.

That guy is really famous.
