Fighting you is like being in jail.

"That's okay."

At this moment, Mami Tomoe took a deep breath, clenched her fingers, and looked up helplessly. Her golden eyes glistened with tears as she looked at Leng Chang. Her face was almost bloodless, sadness pulled down the corners of her eyes, and pressure that did not belong to her bent her eyebrows.

"If that's the truth, what am I supposed to do? Those witches I destroyed... doesn't that mean I killed them all with my own hands?"

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes again. She was at a loss, unsure of the meaning behind her actions.

When Leng Chang sat down and picked up his bowl and chopsticks.

The tempura in front of me had dwindled considerably, and I crunched it away.

"Why bother with such things? You're not the one in the wrong, Kyubey is. Why take it to heart? If you don't become a magical girl, you'll die, so you're not at all wrong."

A cold, ordinary voice came from his mouth as he reached out and picked up a piece of tempura, holding it in front of Mami Tomoe.

"If you don't eat this tempura, I will. It doesn't really matter how you eat it. Let's think about how to live a good life in the future. Let's think about which university to go to and what we want to become. We can't be magical girls forever, can we?"

"I still can't accept it..."

Mami Tomoe lowered her head, seemingly understanding, and looked rather dazed.

Homura Akemi, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief. Her gaze toward Mami Tomoe was no longer so wary, and she sat quietly next to Madoka Kaname, observing silently.

"Do you have a way to save us? I don't want to go on like this... I don't want to be alone anymore..."

Mami's lips moved slightly, like the bell ringing to signal the end of a quiet class. She looked up at Leng Chang, her golden eyes glistening with tears of grievance and helplessness as she gazed at him.

Leng Chang scratched his head speechlessly and said with a sigh:

"I was originally going to find Kyubey, but I got pulled into the witch's barrier halfway there... Now the only thing I can think of to break the deadlock is Kyubey."

Leng Chang's words made everyone else take it seriously, and Homura Akemi realized that it wouldn't be so easy to save Madoka by relying on herself alone.

But Leng Chang was different; he knew everything and had a completely different perspective from hers.

Of course, one can find a way to break the deadlock, and there's also that kind of unreasonable ability...

"How do I do it?" Mami Tomoe nodded seriously.

"Find Kyubey, start the battle! Then copy Kyubey's abilities, and you'll naturally understand the magical girl mechanics." Leng Chang's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and his dark pupils shone with the light of victory.

The winning napkin was already in hand from the start!

In terms of combat, with the help of his ultimate move, Leng Chang is not afraid of any enemy. At worst, he can just carry a train and run away after the battle to live in another world.

But technically speaking... there's really nothing that can be done against Kyubey. The only way is to use magic to defeat magic, copy Kyubey's abilities, and then use those abilities to break Kyubey's powers.

"It might even be possible to reverse the witch's power and save everyone."

Leng Chang's lips curled up, and he sat in the chair with his eyes full of anticipation. The white light illuminating the room above cast a shadow on his face, covering three-quarters of it.

"Have you found Cupid? I understand!"

Mami Tomoe nodded heavily, her decision made. Her golden eyes were filled with fighting spirit; she saw hope, and was filled with hope.

......

Nighttime, on the street.

As everyone prepared to go home.

Leng Chang, with a crooked smile, held his bank card between two fingers and said confidently to Kitahara Iori, "Let's find a nice five-star hotel to stay in tonight! It's on me!"

"Yay!" Kitahara Iori jumped up and down, raising her fist, her face full of excitement. She even pointed to the supermarket next to her and said, "Want to buy some more snacks?"

"Perfect!" Leng Changyi gave a thumbs up and smiled brightly, looking determined not to stop until he had spent all the money.

Akemi Homura, standing to the side, watched as Leng Chang's gaze gradually sharpened, her eyes twitching uncontrollably and her lips twitching incessantly.

Standing under the streetlights, I felt that the cold wind tonight was more penetrating than ever before, just like a night with heavy snowfall.

"Um... Xiaoyan, do you have enough money? Or should I give you my allowance?"

Kaname Madoka leaned close to her and asked in a low voice, her face full of worry and concern, as if she was afraid that Akemi Homura wouldn't even have money for food.

"No, no need, Xiaoyuan. I have plenty of money..."

Homura Akemi refused, but as she spoke, she looked to the ground beside her, appearing forlorn. Her long black hair fell across her face, looking disheveled and pitiful, and she felt an emptiness in her heart, a heartache akin to losing a wallet.

"Then I'll bring you lunch tomorrow, and we can eat together?" Madoka Kaname was still worried, so she changed her approach.

"That's a good idea!" Homura Akemi's eyes lit up, and she looked up at Madoka Kaname without even thinking.

Mami Tomoe stared at the group of people in front of her, and for some reason, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

P.S.: Ranking push on Monday! Requesting monthly votes and recommendations! Oh my god! Other authors will do anything!

Chapter Twenty-Two: My Heart and My Actions Are All for Justice!

night.

When the crescent moon reaches the center of the night.

The shadows hidden beneath the darkness begin to stir; tonight is destined to be an unsettling one.

In just one night, hundreds of people have gone missing.

The moment the first rays of sunlight touched the earth, the police station in Mikohara was bombarded with calls, and countless police cars sped through the streets.

Leng Chang and Kitahara Iori, who happened to be having breakfast by the roadside, couldn't help but sigh when they saw this scene. They sat in the ramen shop watching the police cars speeding by on the road outside.

"What a peaceful day!"

"Yes."

"By the way, Iori, are you sure it's okay if you don't go back and tell them?"

"Ya Bei! I completely forgot! I still have class... Wait, no! I can't go back, I don't want to be chased by that naked guy."

"But then again, what are you going to do after you graduate from university? Even if you have to save the world, it shouldn't interfere with your studies."

"Why can you utter such chilling words from that 36-degree mouth of yours? I'm saving the world, and you expect me to study?"

Kitahara Iori couldn't hold back any longer. Her face contorted in pain, she gritted her teeth, forced her mouth open, her eyes squinted together, and her face was covered in wrinkles.

It hurts, it hurts too much!

His hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly, his mind filled with the pain of studying.

"Oh, come on! Don't say such cruel things when you're saving the world. I feel more noble than ever now, and personal thoughts don't need to be considered at this time. We should abandon vulgar interests and elevate ourselves." Then, a glint flashed in Leng Chang's eyes, his dark gaze filled with profound depth, and he slowly uttered a most terrifying reality.

"Saving the world is not a job; it doesn't pay you and it doesn't put food on the table."

"Puha—!"

Kitahara Iori nearly coughed up blood; it was too real, and there was no way to refute it.

"Listen to me, thank you for making me understand the pain of saving the world. So, don't you go to work?"

"Damn it! I've been absent from work for days!"

Leng Chang's eyes widened suddenly, his whole body shuddered, and a chill rose from his spine to his scalp. He finally remembered that he was supposed to go to work; he had been absent from work for several days.

.......

For a moment, the two fell silent, their faces dark with an eerie silence that was deafening.

Finally, Leng Chang couldn't hold back any longer and said:

"Let's stop hurting each other. If we're going to save the world, let's save the world and talk about something noble."

"well said."

"So, should we go back and take care of our own things first? We have some time..."

"makes sense……"

However, both of them were trembling slightly as they held their chopsticks to eat the noodles, feeling that their future was bleak.

Saving the world costs me money and ruins my youth!

But nobody wanted to give up.

If even they give up on themselves, what will happen to those who long to be saved?

I, Common Cold, have only one very simple and unique idea... and that's all I have!

Victory, then domination!

That’s all…

As for the process and methods... they are not important!

Leaving unhappiness in one's heart... regret is life... such a pointless thought, like rat droppings in a toilet, will never appear in my world.

My heart and my actions are all for justice!

Mitakihara Junior High School

Madoka Kaname sat in the classroom with two bento boxes, her face beaming with happiness, even humming a tune. She swayed to the rhythm, radiating joy as she sat in her chair.

Just then, a faint scent of cream wafted over from the side. Sayaka pouted and moved closer to Madoka Kaname, looking on with great curiosity.

"Xiaoyuan, what's making you so happy?"

"It's nothing, I just thought of something happy." Kaname Madoka chuckled, her pink eyes sparkling with excitement, and she couldn't help but smile at the thought of saving everyone.

"Eh? It seems our little Madoka has her own secret too."

Sayaka chuckled gossipy, her eyes full of amusement. After devouring the strawberry cream bread in her hand in a few bites, she wiped her mouth and said mysteriously:

"Xiaoyuan, have you noticed? There seem to be a lot of police cars this morning. I heard that quite a few people went missing last night."

"Huh?"

Madoka Kaname was taken aback, her eyes filled with doubt, and she turned to look at Sayaka beside her.

When Madoka Kaname looked at it.

Sayaka lay on the table and muttered to herself.

"On my way to school, I saw police cars everywhere, and many people were crying by the roadside. I heard that many families had lost their children that morning. They were all girls..."

"What! ?"

Madoka Kaname's pupils contracted, and her eyelashes trembled. Shocked by the situation, her lips parted slightly, and the sound caught in her throat.

She thought of that kidnapping system... which was right here in her school, and a chill ran down her spine.

How is this going?

Why were so many people suddenly kidnapped?

It's almost impossible that so many people went missing without the kidnapping system's involvement. Only that kidnapping system has that kind of capability.

Lost in thought for a moment, she realized that things had taken an unexpected turn.

We must take action.

.......

Chat group.

Madoka Kaname: Oh no! Everyone! It seems like quite a few people have gone missing today. It must be that kidnapping system's doing, right?

Leng Chang: Huh?

Kitahara Iori: Huh?

Madoka Kaname: No, why are you all confused? Don't you know about something this important?

Leng Chang: I've gone home and resigned.

Kitahara Iori: I secretly took sick leave from Kano.

Madoka Kaname: Where are you all at such a crucial moment?! Oh dear!

Leng Chang: I've been absent from work for three days.
