At the hospital entrance, Yu Yi jumped twice on the spot, gripped the shoulder strap of her schoolbag tightly, prepared to go back to school, and turned to give instructions to Ye Shi.
"Ah."
Ye Shi leaned against the glass door and answered calmly as always.
"...Yeshi, can I ask you a question?"
Yu Yi blinked, as if she noticed something unusual in her lover's expression, and asked uncertainly.
"can."
Ye Shi answered without giving it much thought.
"That's right, you..."
Yu Yi pursed her lips slightly, with an uneasy look in her cherry eyes, and asked:
"Do you hate this 'master'?"
"..."
The moment he heard this question, Ye Shi hesitated for a moment.
She didn't answer immediately, but looked up at the clouds floating in the sky. After a brief hesitation, she responded:
"I guess... I wouldn't say it's that annoying."
I don’t know if it’s because the hatred has been diluted by time, or for some other reason, but this feeling is definitely not “hate”.
She used to hate Qian Du's overly Spartan education, but it was because of that hellish training that she was able to survive the battlefield.
It was precisely because Qian Du stopped her from going to the Demon Realm that Ye Si, who had vowed to "kill all the demons", did not do anything terrible.
These things that once disgusted her are slowly becoming the driving force for her to move forward.
Perhaps, this is the irreconcilable contradiction between "master" and "apprentice".
Rather than "hate", Ye Si now feels more "doubtful" when facing Qian Du.
I wonder why Qian Du treats me like this. There is usually a reason for hatred.
However, from the first time she met Qian Du, she wanted to beat her to death immediately.
Ye Shi could never understand where the root of this "hatred" came from.
"I think.....Sister Qiandou might not hate Yesi."
At this moment, Yu Yi's voice came to my ears.
"Why do you think so?"
Yakuto asked.
"Ugh... straight, intuitively."
She gripped the shoulder straps of her schoolbag tightly, looked down at the backs of her shoes, and her voice sounded very weak, probably because she had no confidence:
"Anyway, Ye Shi, try to have a good conversation with her. I'm going to miss the second class. I'm leaving now. Bye!"
"Walk slowly."
Yu Yi waved to Ye Si like a little animal, turned around and ran towards the school, the backpack behind her swaying.
Ye Shi looked at his lover's back, praying that she wouldn't pick up any strange things again.
However, speaking of "communication".
It is a big question mark whether Qiandu can still carry out normal communication now.
...
...
...
dusk.
The afterglow of the setting sun filtered through the windowsill into the room, dyeing the originally pure white ward bronze and bringing a rare touch of warmth.
Wrapped in warmth, the woman lying on the bed moved a little.
It's Qiandu.
Her eyelids trembled slightly, her consciousness gradually settled in her body, she slowly woke up from her sleep, and stared blankly at the ceiling.
"how do you feel?"
Ye Si sat beside the hospital bed, flipping through a food magazine, and asked Qian Du who was lying on the bed.
“It’s terrible…”
Qiandou made a distressed sound, and along with his awakening came an indescribable sense of disharmony.
"is it?"
Ye Si closed the magazine in his hand, placed it on his thigh, raised his eyes and looked at the "master" lying on the hospital bed.
"Wait, who are you and why are you sitting next to my bed? Are you a pervert?"
Qian Du's memory became confused again. The Ye Si in front of her was just a stranger in her eyes, and she didn't know him at all.
"Just think of him as... your psychiatrist."
"What is a psychiatrist?"
"That is, the people who help you."
"Oh."
Ye Si made up a random excuse to fool the other party, and Qian Du believed it without much doubt and nodded repeatedly.
"So, what do you remember?"
She tried to get useful information from the other party, such as the initial conspiracy, but ended up with nothing.
"Uh..."
Qian Du put his hand on his forehead, feeling his temples and heart beating together. His memories were like broken glass, turning into countless fragments in his mind that could not be pieced together.
"Anything is fine. Tell me what you remember."
Ye Shi did not give up and continued to lure the other party to connect his memories, hoping to piece together useful clues.
but...
Qian Du's next words surprised her:
"I remember... I had a very rebellious apprentice, and I really wanted to beat her up."
"..."
Ye Shi was speechless.
She never thought that the other party, even with Alzheimer's disease, still remembered to beat her up.
Where does this hatred come from?
"Why do you hate her?"
Ye Shi followed up on this topic and asked.
However, Qian Du's next answer once again exceeded Ye Shi's expectations:
"Hate her? No....I don't hate her, I just want to beat her up."
Qian Du shook his head, denying this statement.
"I don't hate it."
It's exactly the same as Yu Yi's guess, except...
"If you don't hate her, why use violence against her?"
Ye Si's body leaned forward slightly, with her back to the setting sun, making it impossible to see her expression clearly, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
She wanted to know the answer, to know the root cause of the other party's violence against her, but...
"Because...she wants to be some bullshit magical girl."
Qian Du clenched his fists, and his dark blue cat pupils contracted violently, with a hint of anger.
Ye Shi had heard this answer many times.
At first she thought that this was just a made-up excuse to beat her up, but she didn't expect it to be the main reason.
Isn't Chito herself also a magical girl?
"Why, you want to stop her from becoming a magical girl."
Ye Shi clasped his fingers together and asked further questions, hoping to gain more information.
"Because...all of this is a scam."
Suddenly, Qian Du seemed to remember something, his expression instantly turned ugly, and his cat pupils trembled as if an earthquake:
"We are just puppets, and in the end... we will all become "sinners."
sinner..
Ye Shi remembered this word.
On the first page of that wicked little pink book, Chuzou wrote this sentence:
....Sinners are not qualified to be forgiven...
In other words, the magical girl is just a puppet of Hatsusou, so Chitogi wants to find a way to drive Yoshito away?
The answer to all these mysteries once again lies with the first, most terrifying and most dangerous magical girl who has gone mad.
Sure enough, I still have to face her in the end.
Thinking of the smile on Chuzou's face, Ye Shi felt a dull pain in his temples.
"Do you know... what Hatsuzou is planning to do?"
Ye Shi went straight to the point and asked the most crucial question.
but...
The moment he heard the word "first performance", Qian Du's body trembled noticeably, and he covered his face with his hands.
"She, she intends to...destroy... this world..."
She seemed to be afraid of something, her pupils kept trembling. Ye Shi had never seen Qian Du like this before.
Just as he was about to touch the truth, Qian Du gave up thinking and collapsed on the bed like a puppet with its strings cut, covering his face with the quilt.
"I'm tired."
She didn't plan to continue talking, her mind was completely empty.
Ye Shi asked several questions in succession, but Qian Du still only responded with silence. The conversation could no longer continue:
"no way..."
Ye Shi sighed helplessly, a hint of fatigue in his red eyes.
It seems that we can only progress so far.
"Next, you can have a good rest here."
Ye Si has already paid the medical expenses for Qian Du, so she can enjoy the best treatment in the hospital and have nurses to take care of her. Although it is boring, it is better than sleeping in the open with injuries.
Just think of it as her last act of mercy to this "master".
"I am leaving."
Ye Shi took the magazine, stood up and prepared to leave, when Qian Du suddenly spoke:
"and many more."
Ye Shi stopped and turned around to ask:
"Do you have any other questions?"
"you..."
Qian Du's voice came through the quilt, carrying a heavy sense of distress. After a brief hesitation, he said:
