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

Xingyu stood aside and watched as the members of the Anti-Demon Department stuffed more than a dozen New Human cult members into a car and then left the chemical plant.

Turning his head, he saw Gun Red whispering to Yui, giggling sweetly against her ear. Hoshino smiled knowingly and walked over.

"We don't know what they'll find out after they take them away, but these people have been stripped of their alien essence and are now useless..." Wu Shao walked over and reached out to brush away the strands of hair in front of Xing Yu's eyes.

Xingyu brushed aside Wushao Mao's clumsy movements and said helplessly, "We can't pin our hopes on them anymore. It's just a pity that these people don't know anything. Just how far have the [New Humans] infiltrated Fangzhou City...?"

Hearing their conversation, Qiang Hong asked curiously, "Why don't we just pick a few people, lock them up in the base, and interrogate them severely? They'll eventually confess something. That's the only way we can deal with the Demon Department anyway."

"..." Xingyu was slightly taken aback, not knowing how to answer, so she could only look at Wushao.

Wushao shook her head. "Magical girls can't do that. Our mission is to recover the alien matter and clean up the void beasts. These people have already had their alien matter extracted and have become useless. We can't detain an ordinary person."

"Why? They are all heinous villains. Rather than handing them over to those useless people in the Demon Extermination Department... our spells are more convenient. We can just interrogate them directly, and if we can't interrogate them, we can just get rid of them."

Gun Red had never shown any respect for Wu Shao as a senior, and now she curled her lip in disapproval, clearly thinking that Wu Shao was somewhat indecisive.

"But we've already used a mental spell... so this is it." Xunfeng said softly. She had rested for a while and her mental energy had almost completely recovered.

"Then these hostages can be kept to do more things..." Facing Xunfeng, Qiang Hong was much weaker, but her tone was still somewhat doubtful.

These followers were captured by them, and magical girls have the ability to control these people. With great power comes great responsibility, isn't that just a matter of course?

Hoshino guessed what Gunguy was thinking and gently squeezed her hand, "We can't let people think that magical girls have a lot of power..."

"I didn't want it..."

"But you think magical girls can shoulder more responsibility, while the Ministry of Magic, the government, and society will only think that we want to demand more power."

Xingyu interrupted softly but firmly.

"Some things fall under other people's responsibilities, and we can't interfere arbitrarily. You may not understand this yet... but think about it, if your things were taken away, wouldn't you be unhappy and resentful?"

Wushao and Xunfeng remained silent, while Qiang Hong grasped Xingyu's hand in return.

"Sister Xingyu... but we know we can't trust the Demon Department. Those wizards have no power at all, and in the end, they still need us. If they don't have the ability, they shouldn't interfere in these matters. Why can't they be more sensible!"

Gun Red was somewhat resentful, mainly because she was furious that the Demon Department was always dragging her down.

Half of their magical girl efforts are devoted to protecting and defending against the Anti-Magic Department, even though the requirements of the magical girl [contract] are only to protect the city, exterminate the Void Beasts, and purify the aliens.

But the authorities are always trying to interfere in their actions and secretly pry into their privacy, wanting to obtain information about magical girls.

"Do you know how many cities... magical girls broke with the government, and the cities were eventually destroyed?"

"I don't want Fangzhou City to end up like this. We are still Fangzhou people, still living here. Just listen to what your seniors have to say."

Xingyu rubbed her head helplessly, her tone even turning into a somewhat coquettish request.

Although Qiang Hong could understand what Wu Shao and Xing Yu were saying, she still couldn't understand why the Demon Department was so respectful to them, even though they were much less efficient and capable. Shouldn't the Demon Department be happier if they took on more responsibilities for them?

Why would they break with the Anti-Demon Department if they did more work?

Gun looked at Xunfeng with pleading eyes, wanting to know her thoughts. But Xunfeng just smiled faintly and shook her head.

"Senior Wushao has been through a lot, let's listen to them..."

"Alright..." Seeing that both Xunfeng and Xingyu agreed with Wushao's idea, she could only nod in a perfunctory manner.

They're all seniors, I won't stoop to their level, hmph!

Wushao knew she didn't understand and wasn't entirely convinced, so instead of trying to persuade her, he grabbed Qianghong's head with his large hand, like grabbing a basketball.

"Ouch! Li Shuang, you messed up my hair!" Qiang Hong cried out in pain, even calling out Wu Shao's real name.

"Stop thinking about things that way. You're still young and don't understand anything. Don't be reckless! Just obediently grab the food from me, and you'll naturally understand in time."

After "fighting" with Qiang Hong for a while, Wu Shao shouted in annoyance.

"You guys... three against one, how could I dare disagree?" It was obvious that Gun Red strongly disagreed.

Hoshino and Kaoru exchanged a glance and smiled. They couldn't really do anything about GunRed's childish mentality, but it wasn't necessarily a bad thing; a healthy team needs different opinions.

Speaking of the team...

"Yui, have we made any candidates for the new magical girl?" Hoshino asked, looking at Yui, who was watching the drama unfold.

"Got it! Got it!" Yui stopped smiling, her eyes darting around as she gave a slightly fawning smile.

"Your smile... I have a bad feeling about this..." Xunfeng said quietly.

Yui quickly waved her hand, sat back on Kaoru's shoulder, and looked at the others. "I already have two choices, but..."

"Two candidates? That's great!" Xingyu's eyes lit up.

The vast city of Fangzhou only has four magical girls, and their manpower is already extremely strained. Normally, they can quickly deal with some Void Beasts, but now, with the internal troubles of the Demon Realm and the external threat of terrorist organizations from abroad, they are already overwhelmed.

They can't trust the Magical Department now, so the magical girls can only rely on their own people. Gun Red also has to go to school, so they can't just call her out whenever they want to keep her identity secret.

And now, Yui has said that she has two alternatives, which is the best news at this time.

"Hoshino, wait a minute, what did you mean by 'just'?" Wushao frowned slightly. "Don't bring in any mediocre people to lower the team's quality."

"You're questioning my work ability!" Yui, who had been hesitant, suddenly frowned and became agitated.

"OK, you can say it." Wushao immediately shut up.

Seeing that the other party wasn't arguing with her, Yui had no choice but to say seriously, "These two children have quite good magical talent, and their [Chakra] assessments have also met the standards, but they are only fifteen or sixteen years old..."

"So small?!"

"Younger than me?!"

The first sentence was Wushao's hesitant voice, and the second sentence was Qianghong's surprised and delighted voice.

Wushao glared at Qiang Hong, "Yui...aren't there any adults? It's not very convenient for girls who are too young."

"What's wrong with that? A magical girl, a girl! A girl! Isn't a middle school student the perfect fit for the character? How can you reject a cute girl from becoming a magical girl for this reason?"

Gun Red retorted with great enthusiasm and excitement, not wanting her senior's dream to be dashed.

"GunRed, stop acting like this! I've told you to watch less anime and play less games, but you never listen!"

Wushao scoffed, ruthlessly exposing Qiang Hong's ulterior motives. "Can such a young child fight alongside us? Can he be a reliable teammate? Can he keep our secrets hidden?"

"You just want to drag someone younger than you into this mess! Go away! Don't interrupt adults." With that, Wushao waved her hand dismissively.

"Don't treat me like a child! You're the one who doesn't act like a grown-up at all!"

Gun Red immediately became unhappy, puffing out her cheeks and twisting against Blackie, their foreheads pressed together...
