Hunting High School
Chapter 88: Zhu Si
It took Zheng Qing a while to realize that the little girl's name is Zhu Si.
Immediately, he realized what the little girl had just said.
"They can eat people?" The young public finance student looked around nervously: "Who are they...?"
"The fairies in the mirror," the little girl whispered, "but I prefer to call them mirror demons, fairies in the mirror. They like to pretend to be someone else, use someone else's voice, and talk about other people's affairs...there is no such thing in the world. Fake things! Than a wizard saying 'I love you' to a murloc!"
These words are not like what a seven or eight-year-old girl would say.
"Why do they do that?"
"In order to replace others." Zhu Si's small face was tense, looking very serious: "As long as it is fake enough, the fake one can be confused with the real one, a civet cat for a prince, and a steal for a pillar!"
There is also a set of small idioms.
There was a look of interest on the wizard's face, and he continued to ask:
"They are in the mirror, how can they eat people?"
There was a look of contempt on Zhu Si's face: "Why are you so stupid! Can you only use your mouth to eat people? What is the most important thing about a person? It's the spirit! It's the soul! They can pollute your spirit without knowing it! Your soul!"
"It's so scary." Zheng Qing sighed, looking over the girl's head to the covered mirrors behind her.
"I always feel that your gaze is very rude." The little girl folded her arms on her chest, raised her head, and looked at the big boy in front of her dissatisfied.
Zheng Qing kind of didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"I think... I just thought that you are an elf in the mirror world." He spread his hands and explained.
"Me? The elves in the mirror world?!" The little girl looked like 'you're blind', pointed around, and drew a big circle: "Those guys are the elves in the mirror world... There are people in the mirror. Am I such a beautiful, cute, smart, and eloquent elf? No!"
The corners of Zheng Qing's mouth twitched.
This is a little talkative, narcissistic and kind-hearted little girl, he commented in his heart - of course, it may also be a sinister, treacherous and vicious true goblin.
Which one is specific, Zheng Qing is not sure yet. But he was more inclined to the first one, because neither his intuition as a wizard nor the discrimination magic he had just used quietly, did not detect any malice towards him from the little girl.
On the contrary, under the cheerful and serious tone of the little girl, he felt a strong sadness. Lingering around her, it has not dissipated for a long time.

"How old are you?"
"This question is very impolite!" Zhu Si opened his eyes wide: "Mom said, you can't tell a boy his age casually. Unless you agree to marry me."
This is indeed not something a seven or eight-year-old girl would say.
Zheng Qing immediately skipped this topic.
He also had trouble with a tree and a cat and a fox, and he didn't want to mess with a mirror at all.
"I mean, you don't look very old." The wizard changed his question.
"I can change diapers by myself at the age of three!" The little girl glared at him unconvinced: "Does age have anything to do with ability?! Gan Luo became a great wizard at the age of twelve, and Kong Rong could discover it at the age of eight." The nine uses of jiaoli'...Compared with them, I am not young at all."
Zheng Qing couldn't help but smile.
"Wow, that's amazing." He praised sincerely, stroked the book in his hand, and asked after deliberation: "Listen to this... Are you a wizard?"
"Replace as fake!" Zhu Si tugged at the old robe on his body, full of air: "The wizard robe specially made by the Traditional Magic Tool Research Institute of First University, warm in winter and cool in summer, and also repel insects and mosquitoes, Bixie!"
Whether there is a difference between spring, summer, autumn and winter in the mirror, or whether there are mosquitoes, Zheng Qing is not sure.
But he was sure that Zhu Si should have stayed in this world for a long time.
Because the "First University Institute of Traditional Magic Tools" is the predecessor of the "First University Institute of Applied Magic", that name has been abandoned for more than fifty years.
The wizard's expression became a little more serious:
"Since you are a wizard, why are you here?"
"You always ask me to answer, and I want to ask you this question too." Zhu Si folded his arms, looked like a little adult, and snorted, "Why did you come here? Are you looking for someone?"
Oh, she came to Mirror World to find someone.
Zheng Qing thought silently in his heart, and suspected that Zhu Si was a child who got lost while playing hide-and-seek in the mirror world when the "Wizard's Code" was not perfect.
"I'm here to study." He told the truth honestly: "The teacher seems to want me to understand the true meaning of this world."
The little witch gave him a sympathetic look.
"You must be the kind of apprentice who was abused by the master." She stood on tiptoe and patted the wizard's arm comfortingly: "I heard from my mother... I heard that you all sleep on the floor of the wizard's tower at night and eat all your meals. If you are not full, you will be thrown to a dangerous place by the master to do magic experiments."
Zheng Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
What Zhu Si said happened in history. Before the establishment of the First University and the Wizarding Union, the old-school wizards were inherited by families and apprentices, and it was very common to squeeze apprentices.
Even now, many children of wizarding families have heard their elders scare people when they were young, such as 'If you don't obey, I will send you to Gellert as an apprentice'.
Gellert was a famous dark wizard in the early twentieth century. It is said that he likes to turn his own apprentices into slimy snakes or limp slugs-no one likes being a slug.
"How long have you been here?" Zheng Qing touched his forehead, and stuffed the barrel of the Colt python back into his mind - since just now, Zhu Si has been staring at it with an expression eager to try. Zheng Qing was worried that she would jump up and grab the barrel to swing.
A hint of disappointment was evident on the little witch's face.
"It's been two or three months." She muttered, the disappointment on her face dissipated, and she became a little more troubled: "I came in quietly... I remember the book said that the world in the mirror can lead anywhere... …I was going to surprise Mom and Dad. But I got a little lost when I got in.”
Speaking of this, she looked around cautiously, motioned Zheng Qing to bend down, and leaned into the wizard's ear: "They are doing very important magic experiments in a very secret institution! Normally, they can only be contacted through the double-sided mirror... "
Then she left the wizard's ear, with her hands behind her back, walked aside, sighed heavily, and looked back at the young wizard with pity in her eyes.
"My escapism is very good," she seemed to be cheering herself up, and also seemed to be comforting Zheng Qing: "You don't have to worry about me...I think you are the one who needs to be worried. I have never seen you like this Daredevil... come in and break a mirror. Don't you know that the worst thing in this world is to break a mirror?"
