The losers in daily youth have all become witches

"script."

"Nonsense, I can see that."

Li Mo glanced at the signature on the cover: "Yumeno Sakiko... Hmm, this name sounds subtly familiar?"

"I'm the author of the girls' manga "Let's Fall in Love?" currently serialized in Monthly Girls' Romance."

Amakusa Shino revealed the answer.

"Now that you mention it, I have some impression..."

Li Mo, who hardly read shojo manga and therefore didn't know much about this topic, pounded his palm. "I remember it was the one that announced his marriage to his assistant a while ago, and it even trended on the internet, right? Although since it was just text news, it didn't rank very high on the trending topics."

"Yes, that's the one. You wouldn't have thought, but Yumeno Sakiko is also a Sobu High alumnus, and only two years our senior. She left this script with the drama club. It was originally intended for the 'Prince-sama' who was in the drama club at the time to perform during the school festival, but then some unexpected circumstances occurred during the festival, and in the end, the drama club wasn't able to put on the rehearsed play."

Amakusa Shino said, "After finding the script, I asked the teacher, Yumeno Sakiko, for the rights to use it, using the contact information she had left in her student roster. She seemed very happy to have her once-obscured script brought back to light."

"It's indeed a great thing... Then what does this have to do with me?"

Li Mo flipped through the script and found that as a stage play, the whole story was simple and fresh, interesting and at the same time had delicate emotional descriptions. Although the main theme was the old-fashioned prince and princess, the core had been modified. It did not have the old-fashioned taste, but was rather fresh. There were not many roles to be played, and the plot was quite good. It was unexpectedly an interesting short play.

"I hope you can invite Miss Yukinoshita to perform this play with you."

Amakusa Shino said seriously, "I've seen it. This skit is about twenty minutes long, enough to replace one show each from your two clubs. You can choose one of your original shows as a backup to deal with any potential performance gaps."

Chapter 186: Yukinoshita has lost all his fighting spirit.

"No, even if I am willing, Miss Yukinoshita will definitely not agree, right?"

Li Mo raised the script in his hand and was speechless: "What's the difference between this and asking the other party to eat charity? The arrogant person will not lose face."

"It's all up to us. After all, Hiratsuka-sensei was at his wit's end and had to come to me."

Amakusa Shino took another sip of tea to moisten her throat and said, "Miss Yukinoshita is aloof. It would be fine if she could maintain her previous high standards, but she seems to be constantly distracted in class lately, and her grades on the previous academic ability tests have dropped significantly. Mr. Hiratsuka is worried that her symptoms will become more serious, so he asked us to help. We don't ask for too much, just hope that her mental state can be stabilized."

Li Mo hadn't paid much attention to Yukinoshita recently. When he heard that the other party didn't seem to be in good condition, his first reaction was to take a taxi to the other party and laugh at her in person.

Then Li Mo came back to his senses: Anyway, I have a car now, so I don’t need to take a taxi... No, before this, Yukinoshita should still be in school and there was no need for her to run out.

Li Mo had some understanding of Yukinoshita's situation before. To put it simply, her worldview had been shattered and had not yet been fully put back together. He didn't know if she was feeling better now. In any case, the girl had behaved very normally in the activity room before.

"...I can only say that I'll try to invite you, but I don't think it will work. Be prepared."

After thinking for a moment, Li Mo made a decision.

In any case, the reality that supernatural powers exist in this world has caused Yukinoshita Yukino's worldview to collapse and has actually affected the girl's normal life.

In that case, there is no need to hesitate.

The reason why Yukinoshita Yukino's memory was not deleted in the past was simply because Li Mo did not have such advanced technology at that time.

But now it's different. After understanding the true application of the spell [Candle], burning memories is like playing (although the delicate operation is still a bit delicate and may burn some other memories), and I can go back and make up for it.

He planned to have a good talk with Yukinoshita Yukino. If the supernatural events she had experienced in the past were just troubles for her, then he would simply burn the girl's memories and let her go back to the icy beauty Yukinoshita Yukino.

"That's great, I'll leave everything to you, Asakura!"

After unloading the bag that Hiratsuka Shizuka threw at her, Amakusa Shino left happily and relaxed.

Only Li Mo was left flipping through the script in his hand as if nothing had happened, and then he stood up to look for the young lady.

However, after searching the old school building that served as the club building and failing to find any trace of Yukinoshita Yukino, Li Mo had to run to the playground again. Only then did he see Yukinoshita Yukino in the corner of the atrium, building a simple one-person stage by herself.

This small open-air stage is prepared for students who were unable to register for the Founder's Festival performance - more precisely, for those students who have already decided to perform at the school festival.

The pieces they are practicing are almost destined to be performed on the stage of the school festival and it is impossible to reveal them at the Founder's Festival. However, they are also dissatisfied with the situation at the Founder's Festival where others can perform while they have to hold back.

After friendly and harmonious communication with the Student Union, the Student Union plans to set up some of these mini stages in the atrium so that these students can also go up and have fun. At the same time, it can also allow alumni who return to revisit their old place to feel the youthful vitality, rather than the lifeless feeling of the Founders' Festival in the past.

This kind of mini stage is actually quite simple. The main body of the stage is made up of plastic boxes with strong load-bearing capacity, covered with a layer of non-slip cloth, with speakers erected next to it and a solid-color background board erected behind it to form a basic stage.

However, because no one else helped, Yukinoshita Yukino looked a little tired.

"Why don't you ask someone else for help?"

After watching for a while, Li Mo couldn't help but walk forward and ask, while helping the girl lift a very heavy plastic box.

“There’s no need to bother others with things you can do yourself.”

The girl looked at Li Mo with a complicated expression.

"But if this bravado leads to other problems, or even hurts yourself, it wouldn't be worth it, right?"

Li Mo looked at the other person hard, trying to see some fan-shaped pattern in the girl's eyes, but unfortunately his skill was not good enough and he could not see anything.

"I have my own sense of proportion."

"So, may I ask the sensible Yukinoshita-san, besides the harmonica, do you have anything else planned for your two programs?"

Li Mo asked.

The girl was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Of course there is."

"Oh?"

Li Mo raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a surprised expression.

Yukinoshita Yukino avoided Li Mo's gaze somewhat uncomfortably.

"Are you interested in acting in a stage play?"

Li Mo took out the script prepared by Tiancao Xiao: "Tiancao said that if the Ministry of Magic and the Ministry of Service perform a stage play together, it can be regarded as an activity for each of our two departments."

"It's not necessary."

As expected, Yukinoshita flatly rejected Li Mo's invitation.

"If it were the old Yukinoshita, I would probably just pack up the script and leave."

Li Mo stared at the girl's face, then shook his head after a moment: "But you can't do that now."

"Huh? You suddenly come out of nowhere and make such a weird statement to me... Are you trying to start a fight?"

Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes became sharp, and only now did she look as sharp as when Li Mo first met her.

"No, what I mean is that although Yukinoshita Yukino was inexplicably arrogant in the past, she was indeed quite capable. She could come up with solutions and implement them after calm and rational thinking for most problems... But now, Yukinoshita, even if I'm not good at this, I can see that your temperament is very different from before. It's like an adventurer who was shot in the knee. Has your mentality changed?"

"How dare you ask..."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Li Mo and sighed silently.

"Wait a minute, could it be..."

An idea suddenly flashed through Li Mo's mind: "Are you feeling lonely because you can't enter the association's hut and feel excluded by Yui and me?"

As he spoke, his eyes turned gentle when he looked at Yukinoshita Yukino—a look filled with pity that made the girl shiver.

"That's not the case."

Xue No gritted her teeth and said, "I just... just..."

As she spoke, she seemed a little confused.

Was it the shock and shock of seeing the reality of the world? Or was it the emptiness of witnessing a supernatural power that had nothing to do with you? Or was it simply the frustration of having a more personal understanding of your own powerlessness?

Now, even she herself can't tell the difference.

Chapter 187: Self-destructive tendencies.

In Li Mo's opinion, Yukinoshita Yukino's hesitant look was just like she was speechless after being hit by what he said.

After this period of coercion and harm, Li Mo actually got to know Yukinoshita Yukino a little better, and he was not as hostile to her as before.

Although this girl is arrogant and troublesome, she will not refuse if there is a legitimate reason for her to help. Once she agrees to help, she will do her best. Although many times she cannot do things to the best of her ability, it can still be seen whether she is sincere or not.

At the same time, although Yukinoshita Yukino has never had many friends and seems to be always alone, giving people the initial impression of a cold and aloof ice beauty, but in fact she actually values ​​friendship very much. At least Li Mo has noticed that she will use her own methods to maintain the relationship with Yuigahama Yui.

So what he said before about Yukinoshita Yukino being "afraid of loneliness" was not groundless.

"If you really care about me, even if I can't get into our secret base at the Ministry of Magic, I can still accept you as my servant... well, I mean, it's no problem for me to make you a non-staff member of the Ministry of Magic."

Li Mo gave the girl a thumbs up.

"No,"

The girl bluntly refused, "If there's nothing else, please don't stay here and interfere with me setting up the stage."

Li Mo frowned slightly and looked at the girl's expression carefully.

But Yukinoshita Yukino seemed to sense something and turned around to avoid Li Mo's gaze.

"Yukinoshita, if there is a chance for you to forget those related existences and scenes that ordinary people cannot reach, so that you can become your original self again, what would you choose?"

Li Mo asked.

Yukinoshita Yukino stopped what she was doing and looked at Li Mo. Seeing that he had a rare serious expression, the girl pursed her lips after realizing that he was not joking.

"There's no need to hesitate. Rather than being kept in the dark and being a happy fool, I choose to know the truth of the world."

She said it with almost no hesitation.

"But even if one knows the truth about the world and worries about the death and destruction that could happen at any moment, there's no power to change it. In comparison, at least the fool's happiness is real."

Li Mo tried to argue with her: "No matter what, the future cannot be changed, and there is no power in it, so why not choose to be happy instead of gloomy all day and live happily every day?"

"Your words are just like telling the pigs fattening in the pigsty to just live happily and not worry about whether they will be sent to the slaughterhouse tomorrow."

Yukinoshita Yukino also said seriously: "I don't want to lose my life or even more important things without knowing why. Even if I have to accept death, I hope to know why I die."

"You're still the same as before, your head is full of righteousness."

Li Mo looked at the girl and said, he clenched his right fist, and a barely detectable transparent flame rose from his fingertips.

"You're still the same as before, your mind is full of yourself."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Li Mo without any fear and said.

"what?"

Li Mo frowned even deeper.

He never thought of himself as a saint, but being told that his mind was full of himself still made Li Mo feel very uncomfortable.

What's more, the other person was someone whose life he had saved.

"He appears incredibly gentle and kind, appearing like a hero to save those troubled by the supernatural, yet never asking for anything in return. He's like a hero straight out of a fairy tale..."

Perhaps not wanting to be heard by others, Yukinoshita Yukino lowered her voice a little: "Asakura Takuma is that kind of person - everyone, the Ministry of Magic, and the people you saved may feel the same way."

Li Mo frowned and said nothing.

"But in reality, that's not the case... Asakura-san, you have a deep-seated sense of indifference and alienation towards the entire world. Apart from those children in the Ministry of Magic, you have very few ties with the outside world."

As Yukinoshita Yukino spoke, she recalled a request she had received from an unexpected person not long ago.

In fact, she herself did not know that much about Li Mo. The reason why she had such a specific feeling now was not only due to her observations during this period, but also due to some information provided by the client.

"I don't know why, and it's hard to tell from the outside, but Takuma-kun actually has a serious tendency towards self-destruction."

The other party said: "So I hope to entrust the Service Club... entrust Yukinoshita-san to solve Takuma-kun's psychological problems as much as possible."

"All your actions are not 'doing good', but rather a ritual to prove your own existence, to transform yourself from a 'fake' into a 'real thing'."

Yukinoshita Yukino stared at Li Mo: "So what are you going to do now? Just erase my memory? Like those parents who force their children to do something, saying 'this is all for your future' under the banner of doing it for my own good?"

Li Mo looked at her viciously, and the girl did not avoid his gaze, but just stared at Li Mo.

After a while, the fire in Li Mo's hand went out.

"I don't care if you die."

He snorted coldly and turned around hurriedly to leave.

But he was stopped by Yukinoshita Yukino.

"Wait a moment."

"what?"

Li Mo looked back dissatisfied.

"That script,"

Yukinoshita Yukino stretched out her hand towards him and said abruptly, "I accept."
