READ NOVEL ONLINE chapter 33
33. He is truly a genius
After everything was settled, they arrived at the restaurant as usual.
While waiting for the dishes to be served, Yu Yu opened the article on his phone and then shared it to Wu Yue’s phone.
Seeing this report, Wuyue clicked in and began to look it over.
After a while, her expression shifted from curiosity to a frown, and her mood was visibly affected—
It was clear that after learning about this matter, her mood had turned so bad that she could not hide the expression on her face.
“……”
After a moment of silence, she said:
“So… Youyu, is this matter related to how Baiyu became a magical girl?”
“Yeah, I think so. After all, that ‘black flame’ appeared. Didn’t Baiyu show us her records before? It could very well have been caused by that night demon.”
“And look here, there are two figures; they might be that night demon and Baiyu when she first transformed into the magical girl Blue Night.”
“Hmm… I see. Since this report doesn’t mention these two figures, then according to what you said before, Youyu, people’s awareness must have been blocked. And the only things that can block people’s awareness are… matters like these.”
“…… So, she became a magical girl under such circumstances?”
Wuyue couldn’t help but feel pity for Baiyu’s situation.
Because from this matter, it seemed that Baiyu became a magical girl because those evil officials directly attacked her home.
Then… perhaps a desire to protect her family arose in her heart, which led her to become a magical girl.
But…
Is reality really like this?
After flipping to the last page, she saw a photo: a father and daughter, their faces full of pain and despair.
In the photo, they were not just in pain; it also contained many other emotions, such as regret, hatred…
At this moment, her mood was the same as Youyu’s when he saw this photo yesterday.
However, it was even more sorrowful, more compassionate.
“…… If I were to guess.”
Youyu said slowly at this moment.
“The wish she made when she became a magical girl was very likely for revenge.”
“Because… her family was left with only her and her father.”
“So… it’s very likely that everyone else is dead.”
After a rare moment of hesitation, Youyu chose to say the word “dead.”
To be honest, he did have this suspicion at first, but he hadn’t thought too deeply in that direction, just assuming someone was injured in front of her and didn’t wake up or something.
However, after truly investigating Baiyu’s background, he hadn’t expected reality to be so… dark.
Although applying the plot from an anime might be a bit childish… Youyu still wanted to ask, is this still a magical girl? Who’s making things so dark and cruel? It seems like it’s not even his place to intervene!
Well, he wasn’t sure how deep it was, but he could see the darkness and cruelty. From the current situation, both Wuyue and Baiyu were quite similar; they had lost their loved ones.
So how did they endure under such immense pressure in the timeline where he originally hadn’t appeared?
I really can’t make sense of it…
I’ll go find Mamba later to understand more about their situation…
Thinking this in his heart, Yuyu looked at Wuyue, whose emotions had sunk into sadness, and said:
“Then now, we understand.”
“The reason Baiyu became a magical girl… is because her family was attacked by those evil officials.”
“So, the fact that she can still fight as a magical girl until now is because she still harbors the wish for ‘revenge’ in her heart.”
“But… there’s something a bit strange.”
“If according to my theory, the one that has been proven, that doing things related to one’s wishes will make one stronger… then why hasn’t she become stronger until now?”
“…Because she’s tired.”
After pondering for a moment, Wuyue, who had adjusted her emotions, said.
“Exactly.”
Nodding, Yuyu continued:
“Just like last time… according to what she said, for a period of time in the past, she could only defeat the negative beasts and couldn’t affect those evil officials.”
“If this continues for a long time, with no positive outcomes, then the hatred in her heart might diminish.”
“However, a decrease in hatred doesn’t mean she has forgotten; she still thinks about revenge.”
“It’s just that this hatred has brought too much burden to her body and mind.”
“So, unconsciously, she feels tired and no longer wants to take action.”
“The wishes and desires in her heart are slowly weakening…”
“And thus… her attitude towards interacting with us has started to become negative.”
In fact, whether wishes and desires would weaken was still just a guess from Yuyu for now.
But that didn’t stop him from using this as reasoning, because perhaps he could uncover the truth behind the guess.
“…Is that so?”
Lowering her head, Wuyue looked at the necklace around her neck—the one that had been hanging there since she became a magical girl. After a moment of contemplation, she said:
“So, what should we do next? Should we prove to her, explain to her, that we can help her take revenge together?”
“Those are indeed things we need to do, but not right now.”
Shaking his head, Yuyu said:
“Baiyu is already very tired, so what we need to do now is to help her get out of this state first, and then consider other matters…”
A person cannot live in hatred all day long; Yuyu was very clear about this, because if one continues to live like that, they will eventually collapse, both physically and mentally.
And now, since Baiyu has shown signs of being “tired,” he should seize this opportunity to help her break free from this “hatred,” to gradually shift her focus, and then discuss this issue with her.
Otherwise… effective communication would be impossible.
“……Hmm, I understand.”
Nodding firmly, Wuyue said:
“No matter what, Youyu, I will do my best to help her!”
The shared experience of losing a loved one made her feel a connection with Bai Yu.
Just based on that, she was determined to help her!
Seeing Wuyue like this, Youyu couldn’t help but smile inwardly and said:
“Yeah, me too.”
“……”
With that, the action plan to “help Bai Yu” officially got off to a good start.
It seemed that not only was Bai Yu doing well, but Wuyue was also handling things nicely.
Given the current situation, as long as nothing unexpected happened, the two of them would surely become good friends.
By then, the so-called “yandere” would likely be hard to come by.
He truly was a genius.
