Upon hearing this number, Yotsuya Miko was stunned.
That Mr. Oda doesn't want a penny and gives all the reward to Yexing?
This is too...
Noticing the surprise in Yotsuya Miko's eyes, Ye Xing explained nonchalantly.
"You still don't understand. For an exorcist of his reputation, the reward for one or two commissions is nothing."
"The key point is his golden signboard."
"He can solve commissions that others can't. If he keeps doing this, he will become the most famous exorcist in Kyoto City."
"The potential income from this kind of fame is what is most valuable to him."
"Oda Noto offered to give me all the commission fees, and said that he could take anything from his shop, which proved that he was aware of this."
"This is Old Deng, who is well versed in the ways of the world."
Yotsuya Kenko nodded, not quite understanding.
To be honest, it is indeed a bit difficult for her, a high school girl, to understand the cooperative relationship between Oda Noto and Yohoshi.
"By the way, why did you take me to that unfinished building today?"
"Didn't I tell you? Training."
When she heard the word "training", Yotsuya Miko's PTSD almost recurred.
She recalled the disgusting black and green tongue that licked the lunch box thoroughly, and Ye Xing was able to eat it without changing his expression.
This is simply not a human being!
I stand in awe. I stand in awe.
"Do you know what our greatest advantage is when facing evil spirits?"
Yotsuya Miko shook her head obediently, looking eager to learn.
"What is it?"
Ye Xing restrained his smile, stood up and walked to the window, looking at the incessant heavy rain outside, and spoke softly.
"The conditions for us to touch evil spirits and the conditions for them to harm us are the same, that is, when they know that we can see."
Then, he changed the subject.
"In other words, if the evil spirit cannot confirm that we can see, then it will have no way to deal with us and can only watch helplessly."
"So, the initiative of when to start the battle is not in the hands of the evil spirits, but is decided by us. Do you understand?"
After hearing these words, even though Yotsuya Miko was slow-witted, she finally understood what the so-called training was for.
"In other words, as long as we can avoid revealing any flaws under any circumstances, we will always have the initiative?"
"exactly."
Regarding the relationship between humans and evil spirits, Yohoshi's view is exactly the opposite of Yotsuya Miko's.
In Yotsuya Miko's eyes, the evil spirits have the upper hand.
A psychic like her who possesses the ability to see ghosts and spirits can only have a chance to survive by constantly hiding, disguising, and escaping.
But in Yexing's opinion, evil spirits and ghosts are actually very stupid creatures.
As long as the "seeing" condition is not triggered, you will never be attacked.
Isn't this a gift?
"Evil spirits that you can't even deal with... this is going to be troublesome."
Yotsuya Miko pursed her lips and looked at the black S mark on the map, with a hint of worry between her brows.
"no way."
Ye Xing looked nonchalant and just shrugged.
"When I summoned the ghost hand, I couldn't use the ability to devour. If it was just the evil spirits at the beginning, even if there were thousands or tens of thousands of them, I only needed to replenish my strength by devouring them and slowly eliminate them. But that turtle... no, snake-shaped evil spirit, I have to use the ghost hand to deal with it."
"I see."
Yotsuya Kenko nodded, and when he looked at Yexing, there was suddenly a hint of intimacy in his eyes, as if he had finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"To be honest, I'm surprised that you also have an evil spirit that can't be eliminated, but it also makes me feel for the first time that you are a normal human being like me."
"Yes."
Ye Xing nodded slightly and smiled.
"Human beings have their limits."
"you mean...?"
"See you, I'm not a human being anymore!"
"Don't be crazy."
........
In the blink of an eye, the peaceful weekend passed.
Yotsuya Miko's daily life can be said to be extremely fulfilling.
Training, training, training.
Now she was able to pick up the fish balls with chopsticks and put them steadily into her mouth without changing her expression, even when she was surrounded by evil spirits and suffered from jump scares from time to time.
As a certain pink-haired female ninja once said.
Lady Tsunade, I finally caught up with them!
happy.
During lunch break, in the activity room of the Supernatural Quantum Mechanics Investigation and Research Society, abbreviated as Supernatural.
Rio Futaba, wearing a white coat like a scientist, is stirring the freshly brewed coffee in the beaker with a stirring stick in her hand.
"May I come inside?"
Hearing the sudden sound at the door, Futaba Rio didn't even raise her head, but just replied indifferently.
"This is also your activity room. Come in whenever you want. You don't need to ask me."
"Well, a deal is a deal, and it must be followed."
Ye Xing replied calmly, walked into the activity room, and sat directly opposite Futaba Rio, without any nonsense, and went straight to the point.
"There is something I need your help to analyze."
"Well, you tell me."
"Is such that..."
Yohoshi told Futaba Rio all the information about how she materialized her own soul to fight against evil spirits.
Of course, the vocabulary has been changed to a middle school style.
"That's it..."
Futaba Rio nodded slightly, raised her hand and pushed the frame down.
"That is to say, one protagonist has awakened his ability, and now the other protagonist also wants to awaken, so he wants to find a way, right?"
"That's it."
Futaba Rio took a sip of the coffee in the beaker and spoke thoughtfully.
"After listening to your description, I think the conditions for awakening that ability may not be objective reasons."
"Is there such a possibility?"
"Is it because the two 'protagonists' had different perceptions when facing the 'enemy', which led to one awakening and the other not awakening?"
033 Yuigahama Yui's Supernatural Request
Yexing nodded thoughtfully.
"Well, keep talking."
Rio Futaba stirred the coffee, and the stirring stick hit the inside of the beaker, making a crisp sound from time to time.
"What I'm going to say next may sound a little outrageous, but it also belongs to the scientific category of quantum mechanics. In some cases, people's subjective cognition can affect the reality. I don't know if you have heard of an experiment called Schrödinger's..."
"Schrödinger's cat girl, I've heard of it before."
Futaba Rio was speechless: "That's called Schrödinger's cat, but since you've heard of it, I won't go into details here."
She picked up the cup, took a sip of the steaming coffee, held the beaker with both hands, and spoke slowly.
"Perhaps whether the protagonist's ability is awakened or not depends on the protagonist's own understanding of the enemy."
"I see. The other 'protagonist' did not awaken the ability to fight the enemy because she did not have the idea of fighting the enemy in her cognition."
"Eh? Do you understand what I mean?"
Seeing that Ye Xing immediately understood what she said, Futaba Rio's eyes couldn't help but show some surprise and astonishment.
She was still thinking about how to explain her ideas in the most understandable language.
Unexpectedly, Ye Xing could actually understand it?
"It's not something that's hard to understand. Of course I understand."
The saying goes well.
Indecision, quantum mechanics.
Even for something like puberty syndrome, Rio Futaba can give a principle that at least sounds scientific.
The analysis she gave is worth trying.
Besides, to put it bluntly.
Evil spirits, psychics, yin-yang eyes, and the embodiment of the soul are themselves very idealistic things.
Combining it with subjective cognition in quantum mechanics may be an effective solution.
"Thank you, Futaba-san."
Ye Xing took out the chocolate bread he had just bought from the school supermarket from his arms and gently placed it on the table.
"For you."
Futaba Rio glanced at the chocolate bread wrapped in a plastic bag and said lightly.
"Do you think I'm a child?"
"If you say yes, then it is. No objection."
Seeing Ye Xing turn around and walk to the door of the laboratory, Futaba Rio showed some hesitation between her brows, but finally she couldn't help but speak.
"that..."
"what happened?"
"If you want to come to the activity room normally, you can come. I don't mind."
Futaba Rio's impression of Yohoshi is that he is a very good-looking person with a severe chuunibyou who likes to act crazy.
Logically speaking, she is not good at getting along with such people.
No, a more accurate word would be that Futaba Rio is not good at getting along with anyone.
But during the two brief conversations with Ye Xing, she didn't feel at all like she did in the classroom, watching her classmates talking enthusiastically while she was excluded, or the embarrassment of not being able to find topics to talk about.
very relaxing.
This is how Futaba Rio feels when she is with Yohoshi.
Even she didn't expect it.
It seems like I get along surprisingly well with this chuunibyou boy?
"Okay, come when you're free."
Ye Xing didn’t play the tsundere role, after all, tsundere has become obsolete.
