My wife is a magical girl, how can I be the villain?

"She saved me once before, and her skillful technique was indeed impressive. This is the second time."

Tang Ming looked at the figure in the distance with a complicated expression, seemingly lost in thought.

"We can't leave for now either." Hua Lingyou looked around and saw that the entire street was cordoned off.

"We still have to wait for the officials to count the number of people and verify their identities before we can open up. I don't know how many minutes it will take. The Anti-Demon Department is notorious for its slow pace."

Hua Lingyou rested her chin on her hand and leaned against the car, grumbling.

Tang Ming checked the time for a while, then took out his phone and sent a message to Lin Ruoyu.

I might be home late tonight.

He briefly explained that he had encountered a virtual beast and probably wouldn't be able to get home on time, leaving the beast to take care of its own dinner.

"Hey, this watch of yours, I picked it out for you."

Hua Lingyou was still holding the watch that had been taken out of the store in her other hand...

"Senior, stealing isn't a good idea, especially since this is a gift from you. What if you find it during the search?"

Tang Ming admired Hua Lingyou's lack of common sense. In such a critical moment, Hua Lingyou could still do such a stupid thing. After so many days, his first impression of Hua Lingyou had been completely shattered.

"The matter of fleeing... can it be called stealing?" Hua Lingyou looked up at the sky.

"In the chaos, there was no time to care what we brought out. A bunch of people's bags are still lying on the ground. Oh right, the clothes I bought are still there. Luckily, they're far away from that son of a bitch, or they'd all be ruined."

Hua Lingyou saw the white bags scattered on the ground, only a few steps away from the pit of the Void Beast, and hurriedly ran forward to check if the new clothes were intact.

"Who are you calling a son of a bitch?" Tang Ming asked hesitantly.

"Both magical girls and phantom beasts are like that. Anyone who breaks my things is a son of a bitch."

Hua Lingyou stood confidently with her hands on her hips: "Anyway, the authorities will only investigate suspicious individuals related to the accident; they don't have time for these trivial details."

The two watched as the street was completely blocked off. All they had to do was lock the car and follow the officials to the side to wait for inspection.

According to officials, the purpose of the inspection is to check for infection by Void Anomalous Matter. If any damage occurs and is not dealt with in time, it could lead to serious consequences upon returning.

Several people used instruments and various complex scanners to scan Tang Ming's body, and then checked for any organ damage.

Many people at the front of the line have already suffered from lung damage due to the noise of the virtual beasts and will need to be taken to the hospital for treatment.

"The care they provide for ordinary people is quite meticulous, but this kind of testing doesn't seem to be very useful. We didn't do anything... and no abnormalities were detected, right?"

After Tang Ming finished his inspection, he walked over to Hua Lingyou, who was waiting to the side. He glanced at the large crowd around him, where the noise was deafening.

Hua Lingyou grinned and said disdainfully, "We're not those ugly parasites whose thoughts and bodies are intertwined with the void."

"We can completely detach ourselves from the influence of the void anomaly before and after transformation, but that's the downside: we have almost no resistance before transformation..."

After speaking, Hua Lingyou gazed into the distance, her eyes unfocused, lost in thought.

"We meet again... Are you hurt?"

A golden figure appeared before Tang Ming's eyes; it was a magical girl named Xingyu.

"That virtual beast almost crashed into you just now, that was so close."

Xingyu floated lightly on the ground and drifted to Tang Ming's side, speaking with concern.

"Oh, thank you so much! I'm so lucky, you saved me both times."

Tang Ming scratched his head sheepishly. He also felt incredibly lucky, as the other party had saved him from two life-or-death crises this week.

It's no exaggeration to call him my savior.

Hua Lingyou watched coldly from the sidelines without saying a word.

"Is this...your wife?"

Xingyu looked at Hua Lingyou with feigned politeness, but there was a hint of inquiry in her eyes.

Hua Lingyou's delicate eyebrows twitched, and Tang Ming awkwardly explained, "No, she's a colleague from my company."

"Out shopping?" Xingyu glanced at the shopping bag in Hua Lingyou's hand.

Tang Ming's expression froze, his facial muscles twitched for a moment, and he didn't know what to say.

Hua Lingyou casually said, "Magical Girl, although you are very experienced in battle, you may not understand the work of adults. Adults need to socialize."

Xingyu sensed the other person's displeasure and realized that even if it was just polite talk, she shouldn't keep asking questions, but...

"Sorry, I'm relieved to see that the person I saved is safe and sound. I talked a little too much."

Hoshino flashed a standard, business-like smile, her eyes curving into crescents, without putting on any airs of a magical girl.

Gun Red on the other side of the street was completely different. Although he was a head shorter than the people around him, he still stretched out his thin arms and bossed the staff around, and would stomp his feet from time to time to urge them on.

Tang Ming opened his arms to indicate that he didn't care. Xingyu told him to get his body checked again before moving on to the other group of people.

As a magical girl in Fangzhou City and a beloved idol, she needs to take care of the needs of disaster victims. Ordinary people who are unarmed can only rely on magical girls.

Hoshino understood this. Although the frequent mechanical work was tiring, wasn't it the duty of a magical girl to bring a reassuring smile to people's faces?

"Are you very familiar with her?" Hua Lingyou asked Tang Ming curiously.

"No, I've only seen her twice. The last time was... on my second day at the company."

Tang Ming stared at her expressionlessly. Hua Lingyou lowered her head, gave an awkward smile, and quickly changed the subject.

"It seems like she cares about you a bit?"

"No, right?" Tang Ming glanced at Xing Yu's location. "They just asked two questions; you actually took their polite words seriously?"

"That's what they say, but their eyes seem a little strange... well, I don't really know how to describe it."

"Just take it as a woman's intuition." Hua Lingyou tossed the bag in her hand into Tang Ming's arms and swaggered toward the parking spot.

They have completed the check and can leave after showing their identification.

The sky was beginning to darken, and the warmth of the ground mingled with the breeze, wiping away the fine sweat from my neck.

Tang Ming opened the car door, turned around and glanced at the pale yellow figure in the distance. The person was sitting on the edge of the mall rooftop, looking down at something.

Only magical girls and Spider-Man could enjoy the breeze so comfortably in this spot. Tang Ming shook his head and, urged by Hua Lingyou, got into the car.

Ding Dong!

Tang Ming took out his phone, and a message appeared on the screen. He was somewhat surprised by how quickly Lin Ruoyu replied; their usual chat history was such that they would only exchange one message every few hours…

I also have some things to do. How about we grab dinner together tonight?

Tang Ming glanced at the people beside him, then at the sky, and typed after thinking for a moment.

Okay, you decide the time and place.

After putting his phone back in his pocket, Tang Ming turned to look at Hua Lingyou.

"Senior, please drop me off up ahead. I have a dinner engagement tonight."

"Oh? I was just about to ask if you wanted to have dinner together, but it's so late... Can I stand you up?"

Hua Lingyou looked at him meaningfully, a smile playing on her lips.

"Looking back... forget about standing me up, let's make it up next time." Tang Ming shoved the other person's face back.

"That's true, there's plenty of time." Hua Lingyou smiled meaningfully.
