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

……

Several months ago, late at night, the abandoned Sky Tower.

Since Tang Ming started having dreams where the addresses of various building rooftops appeared clearly in his memory, he has already found three places.

This is the fourth time he has come to "hunt for treasure" following the images in his dream.

The endless city skyline in his memory could only be seen from the Sky Tower, piercing the sky. With experience, Tang Ming became increasingly efficient at confirming addresses.

He quickly found a quiet night, made an excuse to Lin Ruoyu that he had a meeting outside, and drove to the Sky Tower. Unlike other buildings, the Sky Tower had been abandoned and sealed off since its opening day, so Tang Ming didn't need to spend time figuring out how to sneak in.

In the first three places, he disguised himself as an employee or a tourist to successfully sneak into the building.

Crossing the loosely laid-out cordon, the furnishings inside, though covered in dust, still revealed their newness and sophistication; this building was only completed last year and was ready for use.

Tang Ming was initially troubled, as climbing the safety stairs to the hundredth floor was a painful experience. Fortunately, after walking around the lobby for a while, he found a fire elevator that was still in operation. Soon he would be able to reach several hundred meters in the air and go to the top of the tower.

Pushing open the iron gate, a fierce gust of wind rushed into his eardrums, and it took him a while to adjust to the noise at such a high altitude.

Tang Ming checked his surroundings, took out his drawing notes on his phone, and followed the traces in his dream to find the traces of the spell. The spell he had set up would be hidden in a concealed place along with the medium and magic stone.

If one cannot use scanning spells like a wizard to precisely remove traces of magic, then one can only do what Tang Ming did: lie on the ground, gripping the magic stone and constantly sensing it.

The medium needs a constant supply of magic power stored in the magic stone. When Tang Ming is near the magic medium, the magic stone in his hand will be drawn out by the medium, which is something that even an ordinary person can observe.

He spent a lot of money to find this magic stone, and sure enough, this old-fashioned method really works.

This time, Tang Ming found the "compass" medium buried in a hidden corner, with a black and white magic circle still covering and operating above it.

In order to conceal the magic circle, wizards usually learn concealment magic when setting up the magic circle to prevent attracting ordinary people.

However, in the place Tang Ming found, these visibly precious magic arrays were neither covered with concealing magic nor had any restrictions set up. At least, when Tang Ming reached out to dismantle the medium, he did not encounter any resistance...

Tang Ming was not a wizard and only had a superficial understanding of these theoretical things. Although he felt that his operation was too easy, he never messed up. So he happily put the "stolen" medium into a storage bag that he had also obtained from the black market, which could help him cover up the abundant magical aura.

"How come I can't use such an exquisite medium... But there's not a single restriction set up, and even an ordinary person like me can break it. There are some problems..."

Tang Ming changed from a prone position to a sitting position, tossing the compass in his hand and muttering to himself. The external magic circle shrank continuously as the medium was dismantled, until it returned to the compass and became a black and white miniature array.

"I wonder what this medium set up in this abandoned high-rise is for? Could I have unintentionally thwarted some organization's conspiracy...?"

Tang Ming's eyelids twitched, and he looked up nervously at his surroundings. After turning around, his eyes stopped in one direction.

A girl in a plain white dress sat on the edge of the rooftop, her body swaying precariously in the wind, a pair of Mary Jane shoes neatly arranged behind her.

Tang Ming's pupils contracted; the other person had their back to him, meaning their legs were already dangling over the edge of the rooftop...

Tang Ming gently put down the medium in his hand, his footsteps so light they were almost inaudible, and in that instant all the noise around him disappeared.

His mind went blank for a moment, and then a series of thoughts popped into his head.

When did this person appear here?

Is this girl going to jump off a building?

If she dies, wouldn't I, as the only person present, be in a situation where I can't clear my name?!

One question after another bombarded Tang Ming's head, making him feel dizzy for a moment—though mainly because he had suddenly stood up.

In the dead of night, a woman dressed in white suddenly appears in a supposedly deserted high-rise building—a scene worthy of a ghost movie.

Tang Ming wasn't even sure if it was a real person sitting there or a corpse. He quietly approached, wanting to pull the other person down first. No matter what, the other person couldn't die now. The police were even investigating the Demon Department step by step, and his theft of the magical medium would definitely be exposed.

Tang Ming walked very slowly. When he was only three or four steps away from the other person, the other person turned his head and tilted his head to look at him.

"What...what are you going to do?"

A soft, sweet voice rang out, and seeing the girl's youthful face, Tang Ming confirmed that she was alive and probably a student.

"I wanted to pull you down..." he said truthfully when he realized his actions had been discovered.

"...Do you think I'm going to jump off a building?" the other person asked after a while, his eyes lowered.

Tang Ming breathed a sigh of relief. The fact that the other person could communicate normally proved that he was still a normal person. If it were some strange wizard or one of those wanted criminals, he would have met his end here today.

"Isn't that right?"

"...Yes, the scenery here is very special...it's a good place to end this." The girl turned her head and looked at the night sky filled with neon lights in the distance, the interplay of light and darkness was breathtakingly beautiful.

"Don't come any closer... Just do your own thing. I... I see you crawling around on the ground. You can keep crawling..."

The girl's voice was a little hesitant, but her words were direct and to the point... Tang Ming couldn't tell if she was nervous or if this was just her natural way of speaking.

"You saw it, um..." Tang Ming considered for a moment whether he should just let her jump down and end it all, but he quickly stopped himself from thinking about it.

"I don't want to get involved, but if you jump like this, I'll be in deep trouble. It's just the two of us here, how can I prove I didn't push you?"

Tang Ming decided to try a different approach to persuade the other party: "We've only just met... it's not right for you to drag me into this."

"..." The girl turned her head again, stared at him for a while, and slowly opened her mouth and said, "It seems so, then... then I can't do it today... I'll have to reschedule."

"Let's talk about changing the time later, but let's come down today!" Tang Ming couldn't help but shout in his heart.

He dared not urge the other party. People who do this kind of thing are usually very sensitive at this moment. He was afraid that he might work for nothing and the other party might jump down because he couldn't understand. In that case, Tang Ming would have to cover up the traces immediately and run away quickly. He wouldn't even dare to stay in the city.

The girl glanced at him, sighed, slowly turned around, stretched her legs out from the rooftop, tentatively touched the ground with her toes, and then put them into her shoes.

Seeing that the other person had firmly planted their feet on the ground, Tang Ming immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He was already prepared to pounce on them and pull them away if they made any sudden movements.

Now that the other party has temporarily given up the idea of ​​jumping off the building, Tang Ming can finally consider the next step.

The other person was a child, which gave him a convenient opportunity to subtly inquire how much the child knew about his actions in dismantling the medium. He could then appease the child and find a way to let the matter drop.

After that, whether she lived or died was none of his business, but today's events should be treated as if they never happened. Tang Ming had never seen her, and she had never seen Tang Ming.

Tang Ming never imagined that this unexpected encounter that had caused him so much trouble would not end on the abandoned tower as he had expected.

The girl whose name Tang Ming doesn't yet know will become increasingly intertwined with his fate, constantly imprinted in their memories.
