Chapter 453 Witches are all liars

As the performance approaches, the lights in the theater go out and the music flows.

The actors step onto the stage, and the presence of the audience is reduced to a minimum. Next to Jiang Xia, Suzuki Sonoko, who had been excitedly pulling him to talk before, also quieted down and sat ready to watch.

Jiang Xia looked around, left two clever ghosts, and briefly asked some precautions.

Then he leaned back slightly against the soft back of the chair.

Shikigami, invisible to ordinary people, rushed into the sky, wriggling out of the ceiling, and condensed and accumulated on the roof.

Soon, on the pitch-black roof, an equally pitch-dark figure appeared and spread its wings.

Jiang Xia's consciousness also moved into the puppet framed by the foggy dog.

He recalled the direction notified in Kidd's notice, and fluttered his wings.

Nearly twenty minutes later.

The time of the notice, the place of the notice.

Jiang Xia silently fell into the shadow at the top of a building.

Then he looked at the man standing on the roof of the other building, lost in thought.

...Before, Jiang Xia passed by the police.

Judging from the police's shouting, in the eyes of others, the arrogant figure on the opposite roof is indeed Kidd.

But in Jiang Xia's eyes, the "Kid" on the roof at this time was a woman surrounded by a dense circle of magic.

The top of the woman's head is bulging with magic power, and there is also a soft extension on the back, which looks like she is wearing a high hat and a cloak. Her whole body was wrapped in pure and delicious magic, and she couldn't see her face, only a little of her figure could be seen.

In addition, behind the figure, there is an invisible line extending out, spreading into the distance.

Jiang Xia glanced at the line where the magic was sparse and hard to see, and then his eyes fell back to the "Kid" covered in magic. A series of images of "breaded and fried until golden" appeared in his mind.

The next second, he shook his head secretly, throwing the strange picture out of his mind.

Then he first threw out the ghosts who were just around the corner.

After , Jiang Xia estimated the amount of magic power to be eaten, as well as the distance between the two sides, and silently weakened the strength of the puppet.

The puppet is made of puppet clay, and the material of the puppet clay is Shikigami.

When weakened at this time, he immediately saved a lot of free shikigami.

Jiang Xia released these extra shikigami together with the shikigami that had been in the pattern before, and let them quietly float to "Kid" who was standing on the opposite roof and was learning Kid's pose.

The number of Shikigami is large, the energy core is picked up, and the efficiency is like a locust crossing the border.

When the good guy who delivered the food opposite was surrounded by Shikigami, she couldn't easily escape with magic power.

At that time, Jiang Xia can easily fly over to grab people, drain the magic power with familiar methods, and in the process, ask where his stable energy core supplier, Classmate Kidd, is now.

According to Kidd's habit of knocking and tying up a person before disguising himself as a certain person, others disguised as Kidd may also take similar actions.

While waiting for the Shikigami to flank by, Jiang Xia secretly looked at the figure standing upstairs, suspected of disguising Kidd.

Although his vision was blocked by magic, he couldn't see the woman's face.

But when you mention the two keywords "magic" and "gender woman", you can't help but think of Koizumi Koizumi.

After guessing about the witch's specific identity, Jiang Xia looked at her from a distance, his eyes moved slightly.

It shouldn't be too long since the last time I squeezed out my magic power.

Koizumi Koizumi's magic power grew out so quickly?

This is also very useful...

As he was thinking, "Kid" in the distance suddenly held down his earphones and listened to something.

followed, and she suddenly turned around and glanced at Jiang Xia's direction, then turned around and ran.

Her speed was much faster than the fluttering shikigami.

Jiang Xia was stunned, glanced to the side thoughtfully, then temporarily put away the shikigami, flapped his wings and took off, chasing after him.

"Kid" heard the unusual wind behind him and looked back.

The one who pretended to be Kid was indeed Koizumi Koizumi.

The clothes that Yuan Hongnai gave her before can assist in the accumulation of magic power, so that she, a witch who lacks magic power at this stage, can also maintain this "Kid" form for a long time.

"If the fog tengu can't see through the transformation magic, and mistook us for 'Kid', he should follow up to check the situation. Of course, this is good, whoever plays the role is the same."

"But, considering that it is an unknown monster after all. If he can see through our magic, then it is better for you to be the bait."

"The piece of love chocolate you used may have already worked on the misty tengu - you see, he just flew with you for a while that day and didn't hurt you, didn't he?"

"That's why I think that only if you play in person can you lead him to that magic circle without fail."

...Recalling what Yuan Hongnai had warned before, Koizumi Hongko looked back at Wutengu, who had caught up, and let out a small sigh of relief, and continued to run.

Jiang Xia was looking at "Kid"'s escape direction while thinking about chasing. He felt that Koizumi Hongzi's goal was very clear - it seemed that he wanted to lead him somewhere.

... After that, can you be attacked by magic power?

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia secretly looked forward to it, and steadily followed behind "Kid" to ensure that he could step into the magic trap smoothly.

Anyway, it's not the body here. If the puppet is injured, just adjust the distribution of the puppet's clay and it can be repaired.

On the other hand, if the magic power will attack the soul... that's even less of a concern.

chased "Kid" who was running fast for a while, Jiang Xia vaguely saw her passing by a very inconspicuous rain cover of the same color as the roof.

Jiang Xia glanced at it and flew straight away.

Sure enough, when he flew directly above, the "rain shield" suddenly lit up, the magic circle hidden below took effect, and a strange red light rose into the sky and enveloped him.

Jiang Xia's eyes lit up vaguely, just about to "unfortunately attacked and fell into the magic circle".

However, he just folded his wings and had a tendency to fall, and his whole body was suddenly empty.

The magic power in that magic circle was sucked up and eaten up in just a few seconds.

Jiang Xia: "...?"

He was in a trance for this sense of dislocation. When he was hungry, he saw a large table of delicacies from mountains and seas. As a result, he stretched out his chopsticks and found that there was only a thin advertising paper in front of him.

...Compared with this kind of empty shell-like magic power, it is the magic power wrapped around "Kid" in front of him, which is heavier and more delicate.

At the moment Jiangxia was deceived by the "advertising paper", "Kid" had already run a long distance.

Jiang Xia glanced at her back faintly, and with a little discomfort of being deceived, speeded up and swooped down. He grabbed the shoulder of the magic block and pressed the person against the side wall of the roof tower.
