Go to work, and then educate magical girls.

Chapter 148 Everyone Has Hidden Motives

"I know where he is."

Shi Yin gripped the crystal ball and said with certainty, "It's in the central area."

"But the central area is too big..." Youlian scratched her head.

"Don't worry, you can just follow me." Shi Yin patted her small, thin chest, looking very confident.

She can use divination magic to know the location of her target at any time. Although this magic seems useful, it has many limitations. It requires a certain medium, and the success rate is affected by the distance and complexity. Often, she can only get a blurry image.

But it's more than enough to find a target in the same city.

As for the mediums belonging to Tang Feng, Shi Yin has many here.

Shi Yin gritted her teeth in resentment. She left without a word back then, and now she's secretly coming back without saying a word. If it weren't for this magical girl team finding her, she wouldn't even know that Tang Feng had arrived in Kyoto.

This guy will definitely go find Sakura first!

Where am I inferior to Sakura?! Tokine unconsciously stroked the faint curve of her chest, her expression quite indignant.

Seeing Shi Yin's ever-changing expression, You Lian asked somewhat nervously, "Sister Shi Yin, is something troubling you?"

"Ah, no, no." Shi Yin came to her senses and waved her hands repeatedly.

Jingli then asked, "Is Shiyin coming with us?"

"Of course, otherwise how would you have found him?"

Jingli felt a little regretful. She only wanted to find out Tang Feng's location from Shiyin and then lead the team to find him. She didn't expect that Shiyin, who had just agreed not to interfere, would actually come along.

This is a bit tricky...

"Will Shi Yin make a move then?" Jing Li asked.

"That depends on you guys. Besides, didn't you just say you could beat him without a doubt?" Shi Yin paused. "If he tries to run away, I'll be responsible for stopping him."

Jingli's expression shifted twice, but she didn't say anything.

She estimated that Tang Feng's strength was about the same as Shi Yin's, so that no matter which side wanted to leave, the other side wouldn't be able to stop them. This would be the best outcome.

Just give him a subtle hint later...

At that moment, a magical girl behind her timidly interjected, "Is Senpai alright by herself? Should we ask Senpai Mei or Senpai Sakura for help? I'm worried..."

Shi Yin revealed a very dangerous smile.

"Matcha, what nonsense are you spouting?" Jingli quickly cut her off, "Senior Zhi is wise and powerful; how could she possibly be insufficient to deal with a third-rate weirdo?"

"Yes, Senior is one of the most famous Maple Flowers. If that bastard hears Senior Zhi's name, he'll definitely run away at the mere sight of her," the remaining magical girl chimed in.

Her codename was Shadowmoon, and she was also one of the victims from that year.

This team is quite strong. Youlian, Jingli, Matcha, and Yingyue are all powerful S-rank members and have always been quite famous in Kyoto. However, they are very unlucky. They fell into the hands of that nightmare more than once, and each time it was a group battle. In the end, everyone was killed and left with nothing.

Now, they are ready to go, everyone is fully prepared, and they have also brought strong external support.

This time, we absolutely have to take that guy down!

"Let's go now!"

Tokine led several magical girls aggressively toward the city center.

"Senior, your wheelchair..." Matcha reminded him cautiously.

"I don't need a wheelchair after transforming!" Shi Yin said confidently.

Several streaks of colorful light streaked across the sky above Kyoto.

Many people noticed and speculated that something major had happened. Since the Hero Association was established, many incidents have been resolved by the Inhumans, and it is rare to see magical girls mobilize like this.

As dusk fell, Tang Feng and the two girls had already arrived at the accommodations provided by Ying. Due to long-term neglect, the rooms were covered in dust.

However, this was no difficult task for the magical girl. With a few cleaning spells, the room was quickly cleaned up and looked brand new.

But soon, the two girls started arguing about the room's layout.

Although the house was large and had several bedrooms, Jinju and Ziwan insisted on sharing a room with Tang Feng.

"Why are you grabbing this?" Jinju was furious. Ziwan and Tang Feng clearly didn't have that kind of relationship. Wasn't she just taking up space without doing her job?

"It's normal for the father and daughter to sleep together at night, right?" Ziwan said calmly.

"This is not normal at all!!"

"What's wrong with that? I've even seen dads and daughters bathe together," Ziwan retorted.

Jinju was taken aback, and after a long pause, she finally spoke, "Where did you see these strange things?"

"Use the internet scientifically, see more of the world, and don't just bury yourself in magic," Ziwan said calmly.

"Even if such situations exist, they must be extremely rare, right? They only get reported because they're exceptional. Who in their right mind would do that?"

Do you think Baba is a normal person?

"This..." Jinju was dumbfounded. Tang Feng was definitely not a normal person. In other words, he was capable of anything and could not be measured by common sense.

She deeply doubted whether Tang Feng would still... if he really had a daughter who was a magical girl.

Sigh, I shouldn't think about such dangerous things too much.

Jinju glanced at Ziwan. If she couldn't even compete with this fake daughter, what would happen if her biological daughter joined in the future? Would she not even be qualified to be looked at?

"I want to sleep with my master," Jinju insisted.

"Me too," Ziwan insisted.

Tang Feng then chimed in, "Why don't we just sleep together?"

"..."

This seems like a good approach.

"I agree!" Jinju looked like she had finally gotten her revenge. She and Tang Feng would be able to enjoy themselves to their hearts' content, while Ziwan could only hide to the side with her blanket. Just thinking about it made her feel very happy.

She witnessed firsthand how Ziwan looked when she was eavesdropping that day. She was like a little dog with a big bone in front of it but unable to eat it, only able to secretly swallow its saliva. She was as pitiful as could be.

Since teaming up with Shengxue, Jinju has gradually progressed to the point where she no longer minds having onlookers, especially someone as familiar as Ziwan.

She'll make Ziwan drool with envy! She'll make her regret insisting on sharing a room with them!

Jinju hummed to herself as she thought about it.

At this moment, Tang Feng suddenly realized something and looked out the dark window.

I'm going out for a bit.

After a pause, Tang Feng added, "I might be back a little late, so don't wait for me."

Jinju pouted, and Ziwan nodded lightly. Neither of them asked Tang Feng what he was going to do.

The next moment, Tang Feng's figure disappeared from the room.

Ziwan tilted her head and looked at Jinju, "Baba's gone, are we still going to sleep together?"

"Who wants to sleep with you!" Jinju said, sounding like a cat with its fur standing on end.

"Actually, I don't really care..." Ziwan looked around, then pushed open a bedroom door and went inside. "I guess... he'll come to this room when he gets back."

"I bet he'll choose this one!" Jinju walked into the room opposite Ziwan's.

.

Shi Yin dragged the crystal ball and landed on the roof of a building, where she stopped.

She has already secretly sent a signal to Tang Feng, and he should appear soon.

Behind her, four magical girls quickly followed and landed on the rooftop.

"Sister Shiyin, have you found the target?" Youlian stepped forward.

"Use your code name when you're working, Yu Lian," Shi Yin reminded her seriously. "This is a mistake even a novice magical girl shouldn't make."

"Ah, I'm sorry, Senior Zhi." Youlian quickly apologized.

She was a little nervous at the moment, her heart was beating fast, and she couldn't concentrate, which is why she made such a silly mistake.

Shi Yin didn't pay attention, but looked at the crystal ball with a thoughtful expression, "I feel very close."

Youlian unconsciously swallowed. After several years, was she finally going to see that guy again?

For some reason, she felt conflicted. After hesitating for a moment, she stammered, "Senior Zhi, how confident are you in defeating him?"

"I don't know, I've never fought him, but from your descriptions, if you only slightly outmatched him, I should be able to defeat him easily," Shi Yin said casually.

This means that they could easily defeat their entire team... Youlian looked somewhat dejected. Even though they were all S-rank, they still seemed insignificant compared to the top-tier magical girls.

I wonder how he compares to that guy...

For a moment, Youlian didn't know who to worry about. She hesitated before speaking, "Senior Zhi, could you please refrain from intervening and let our team spar with him first?"

"No problem," Shi Yin readily agreed.

A cool night breeze swept by, and Shi Yin's expression suddenly sharpened. "The target has appeared!"

The magical girls immediately became extremely alert.

"Hehehe, I smell the delicious scent of a magical girl." A sinister-sounding voice drifted from afar.

A cloud of black mist silently spread across the night sky not far away, twisting eerily like octopus tentacles, sending chills down one's spine.

"Who's playing tricks there?" Shi Yin's eyebrows shot up. She stomped her foot and leaped into the air, rushing straight towards the black mist.

"Senior Zhi!" The magical girls were dumbfounded. This wasn't what they had agreed on. Weren't they supposed to go first? Why did Senior Zhi rush forward alone?

The four exchanged a glance and immediately followed.

When they arrived at the scene, they saw that their senior was already fighting with that pitch-black figure.

They looked closely and realized that the black figure was the same nightmare that had plagued their entire team years ago.

You've chosen the right target!

"Senior, we're here to help you!" Just as the group was about to step forward, a powerful explosion erupted from the area where the two were fighting. The deafening roar and terrifying aftershocks made it impossible for them to get in and help.

They don't even have the right to interfere in this battlefield. If they insist on going up, they'll only distract Senior Zhi from protecting them...

Therefore, Youlian and the others could only retreat to a distance to watch.

At this moment, Tang Feng, who was sparring with Shi Yin, discovered that the girl's attacks were fierce, and she showed no mercy whatsoever.

"Hey, are you serious?" Tang Feng dodged the opponent's fierce attack and took several steps back.

Shi Yin leaned forward and unleashed a barrage of magical spells, saying, "So you finally decided to come back?"

"Three years have passed, and I haven't heard a single word from you. Why haven't you died out there?"

"It's such a simple and convenient thing as just leaving a phone number!"

"At least let me know how you're doing!!"

Do you know... how much I miss you?

Shi Yin's voice gradually choked up, and her attacks were no longer sharp. Seeing this, Tang Feng's black mist suddenly spread out, and from the outside, the black mist turned into a huge black dragon, which swallowed Shi Yin whole!

"senior!"

Several magical girls were extremely anxious and transformed into streaks of light to join the battle, trying to blast open the giant dragon formed by the black mist and rescue the person, but to little avail.

Within the black mist, Tang Feng held the girl's slender body, gently comforting her, "It's alright, I'm back this time, and I'll never leave again."

"Really?" The girl tilted her delicate face up, her nose slightly red.

"When have I ever lied to you?" Tang Feng affectionately brushed the girl's delicate nose.

"Hmph." Shi Yin pouted, sniffed one last time, "I'll let you off this time, but don't do it again."

"As expected of Xiao Zhi, who is beautiful inside and out, I like you the most." Tang Feng said with great ease.

"Don't think this is the end of it; there's more to it." Shi Yin said, her gaze turning dangerous. "Tell me, what's going on with those magical girls outside?"

"That's...that's all." Tang Feng shrugged.

"You..." Shi Yin said, looking at Tang Feng with a disappointed expression, and punched him twice in the chest. "Can't you control yourself a little?"

"This is all I have left to pursue. You wouldn't take away even my only obsession, would you?" Tang Feng put on a pitiful act.

Tang Feng knew Shi Yin's personality well; as long as he was willing to swallow his pride, he would forgive her no matter how big the mistake was (this only applies to him).

Besides, this isn't really a mistake; everyone knows the truth.

It's not even as bad as the resentment she felt because he hadn't visited her for three years.

Sure enough, Shi Yin scratched her head, took a deep breath, and said, "I'll help you one last time, and this is the last time!"

"I love Xiao Shiyin the most." Tang Feng kissed her.

This girl was one of the few magical girls he obtained without resorting to force; she was only a little over ten thousand years old when Tokine was with him.

That sickly girl with paralyzed legs back then did not disappoint him and created a miracle belonging to magical girls.

Their relationship has always been extremely close. On the night that Shi Yin's legs were fully healed, he helped her grow in another aspect as well.

After that, it got out of control.

That sickly girl gradually became one of the most powerful magical girls in the world.

Meanwhile, Shi Yin was thoughtfully trying to help Tang Feng. She asked quietly, "How much progress have You Lian and the others made in their campaign? Wait," Shi Yin paused, her eyes filled with suspicion, "you should know them, right?"

"What do you take me for?" Tang Feng asked matter-of-factly. How could he not recognize the magical girl he had been with several times? He wouldn't forget even just once!

"Alright, I don't want to hear the fact that you're scum anymore." Shi Yin said helplessly, getting back to the main topic, "What's the progress?"

"About... 30-40%?" Tang Feng wasn't entirely sure. They'd had several impart meetings before; they wouldn't be so ruthless as to completely sever ties. Maybe...

"It's not negative after all," Shi Yin couldn't help but retort. "You're quite confident."

"I've always been confident in this area." Tang Feng glanced at the four magical girls relentlessly attacking outside the black mist, then turned and asked, "What's the use of knowing this?"

Shi Yin revealed a profound expression, "Different levels of favorability require different methods."

"You should be glad it's not negative, otherwise I'd be in a difficult position."

Shi Yin whispered in Tang Feng's ear.
