Chapter 304: Chapter 191: Two People on the High-Speed Train, The Superpower Instructor with Surna Crow
The C2703 high-speed train departed from the station north of Huanjing, accompanied by bright sparks, shuttling under the pitch-black sky. It slowly headed towards the south of Huanjing.
The wheels rumbled over the high-speed railway tracks, sounding like the buzzing of a giant bee.
At this very mont, atop this high-speed train, Mingye and a girl in a gothic dress were sitting on the edge, the steel plate of the car below them transmitting slight vibrations.
Under the moonlight, both lowered their eyes, silently gazing at the city.
Mingye bent one leg while the other hung between two windows below: it was a tricky position, just in case so unfortunate passenger sitting below suddenly turned their head, saw a human leg outside the window, and got so scared that they foad at the mouth, losing consciousness.
Whooo…
The whistling evening wind brushed against his cheeks, tousling his hair.
Mingye sniffled his swollen nose, the cold air streaming into his nostrils, his throat dry and slightly painful.
Luckily, the superhuman constitution wasn’t too bad. Otherwise, after getting soaked and then sitting in an air-conditioned subway, and being dragged up on the high-speed train to enjoy the scenery, he’d probably have to lie down sick for a couple of days when he got ho.
Mingye did not know how long he would have to stay on the high-speed train, that all depended on his little sister’s mood; he didn’t dare to utter a word in any case.
After a while, he quietly shifted his gaze from the cityscape and glanced over at Magic Girl Ash sitting beside him.
The girl’s side facial profile was clear, her aura cold. Her pupils reflected the brightly lit city. The towering skyscrapers grew more distant, like fragile bubbles about to disappear from sight.
Compared to usual, she seed like a different person. Soone close at hand, yet unreachable.
Mingye didn’t quite understand, it was the sa person, so where did this feeling of distance co from?
He thought, is it the Bai Zini at ho who acts silly and neurotic, or is it this sowhat indifferent Magic Girl?
After thinking for a while, Mingye suddenly said, “Rember last ti at Hongge Comrcial Street? When I wanted to shake hands with you, you rejected . That was really stand-offish.”
“How would I know that it was you?”
The girl in the gothic dress murmured, her tone carrying a hint of complaint.
“But, you really are asking for a beating… It’s my first ti seeing a superhero who talks so much. Should I say, you really are my big brother?”
“Am I that much of an irritant?”
“Yes.”
“Test, what was your first impression of blue owl?”
“La and pretentious.”
“Co on, do you have to be that hurtful? Can’t you be a bit more subtle?”
Though he said that, Mingye had long ago heard this assessnt from Xiaohongmao. So deep down, he didn’t care that much, let alone feel deeply hurt.
“Telling the truth, what else did you want to say, ‘Big brother, you’re so cool, I really admire you’?”
Mingye sighed, trying to salvage so dignity, “Can you not be so sarcastic, considering I’ve just awakened my superpower a few days ago. It’s normal for to seem a bit la, okay?”
He paused, “But don’t underestimate my potential. The association people have all said I’m a rising star. I’ll catch up to you eventually, got it?”
“Catching up to is useless,” Ash suddenly said.
“Why is it useless?”
Hearing this, Magic Girl Ash was silent for a while before she answered, “In a year, I won’t be a Magic Girl anymore… I’ll just be a regular person then, and you can bully all you want.”
“Heh, then I’ll catch up to you within a year, so you’ll lose convincingly.”
“Wow…” Ash glanced at him, unamused, “You really talk big, do you know I could beat ten of you right now? Ten… understand?”
“Be confident. You could beat a hundred of .”
“It seems you’re quite self-aware,” she couldn’t help but curl her lips slightly as she spoke, “Actually, I wanted to say the sa, but was afraid it might injure your pride.”
“No need for that, with our house full of demons and spirits I’ve had my pride wounded so many tis since childhood, it won’t make a difference.”
“Oh.”
“Speaking of which, do you rember that video, when you were little and saw being bullied, you hugged saying ‘I will beco a Magic Girl to protect brother,’ and everyone laughed at you. Every birthday they’d bring it out to tease you.”
Mingye shrugged, “Nobody knew, but later you really did beco a Magic Girl.”
He paused, teasing her, “If everyone saw you now, they wouldn’t be able to laugh.”
“How could I forget that video. Every ti you guys take it out, I really feel like hitting soone, you know?”
“What do you an ‘you guys’? I didn’t join them in making fun of you. After all, I’m the main character in that video too.”
Mingye paused, then added, “And having a kindergarten-aged sister protect is just embarrassing.”
“Oh, so I can’t protect you?”
“So you beca a Magic Girl just for that reason?”
“Hmm… guess?”
“I’m not guessing.”
“Heh, then I won’t tell you.”
“Isn’t that just childish? What’s the difference between you and a primary school kid?”
“The difference is: the primary school kid is still cooped up at ho sulking, he’s been in a bad mood these days.”
“What’s up with him?”
“He’s actually a dragon.”
“Ah, a dragon?”
“I’ll tell you so other ti when I feel like it. Not in the mood now.”
“Co on, are you being serious?”
“Not in the mood. Don’t want to discuss this topic.”
“Alright, miss…”
Talking about this, Mingye sighed, “By the way, there’s sothing I have to tell you: I think you could also try to be kinder to other people outside, not just to .”
