After get off work, I become a magical girl

It is better to explain a few more words and see if you can gain the other party's understanding.

As he thought about this, he began to recall and wonder how he had provoked this man in that brief moment just now, but he could not find any possible factors.

Was it because I was daydreaming in the exam room and gave him a bad impression? Or was it because he simply didn't like physical contact?

Just when he was puzzled, the young man in front of him suddenly moved again.

He still didn't say anything, and his expression didn't change at all, as if Tian Sheng wasn't even in his field of vision. Without giving him a chance to say anything more, he just turned around and left with his back to Tian Sheng.

This made Tian Sheng dumbfounded for a moment, and he didn't know whether he should chase after him to explain.

If I chase after him, what if he thinks I’m annoying? If I don’t chase after him, will I miss the last chance to apologize?

This decision was not easy, so he was sweating a little. Just as he was worrying about it, he felt his nose itch for a moment, and subconsciously reached out to scratch it, but saw a small black shadow suddenly escape from his hand and fly forward.

Tian Sheng's dynamic vision was not bad, so he could vaguely recognize that it was a moth.

Under his gaze, the moth flew forward all the way, and finally flew behind the strange man in his sight. After circling for a while, it landed on his collar.

This completely froze Tian Sheng's mind.

What's going on? What happened? Did I see it wrong?

A series of questions popped up in his mind, causing him to rub his eyes subconsciously. He looked again, but the moth was gone.

"…Is it a ritual?" Tian Sheng was a little confused. "Forget it, it's better not to talk to this weirdo anymore."

He was here to take the exam, not to meddle in other people's business. No matter how strange the invigilator looked, it had nothing to do with him.

Maybe the strange behavior and the moth were just a warning? Or a prank? Never mind.

Shaking his head, Tian Sheng stopped thinking and continued walking in the direction he came from. Soon, he and the young man in the Yi Ce Bureau uniform left the place and disappeared at both ends of the corridor.

This somewhat remote corridor once again returned to silence.

Of course, it is not accurate to say that it is quiet, because if someone stops here and listens, they will hear a very faint noise.

Tian Sheng also failed to notice that the direction from which the young man appeared was actually not very usual.

The young man walked out of an emergency exit in the corridor, and the faint noise came from the shadow of the emergency exit. If you get closer, you can even hear an inexplicable "rustling" sound coming from it.

The subtle sounds of friction and collision were hidden in the darkness, but no one noticed them.

Chapter 128 Another Unknown Phone Call

2023-04-30

Click, click, click.

There was a sound coming from the darkness.

Rustling, rustling.

The subtle and chaotic noises never stopped.

Delphinium stood in an empty hall, looking around in confusion.

Why am I here?

She felt that her memory was a little fuzzy and her consciousness was not very clear, as if she was in a fantasy, but the feeling was so real.

Taking a step forward, the crisp sound of the heels hitting the ground resounded in all directions, and the invisible sound waves turned into echoes, dispersing the chaotic noise.

After a brief silence, there was a whispering sound.

Delphinium couldn't tell the source of the voices. There seemed to be men and women, old and young, among them, but the only thing they had in common was that they were all laughing.

The snickers and the echoes of footsteps mixed together, overlapping and repeating over and over again. The sound gradually became sharper and finally formed a kind of harsh noise.

The noise continued to spiral upward, constantly attacking her ears, as if it was going to pierce Delphinium's eardrums, causing a severe headache.

This real pain made Delphinium frown, and she subconsciously used a spell to block out the sound. However, as she began to move, the harsh sound disappeared.

The echoes, voices, and laughter all vanished, as if they had never existed. Everything returned to the beginning, with only the messy and faint sounds in the darkness.

What exactly is that sound?

Delphinium was a little confused.

Just as she was about to move forward to find out what was going on, a light suddenly appeared in her sight.

The blinding light shone from behind her, casting her shadow on the ground in front of her, stretching it very long. She could see her skirt swaying in the shadow, and Bonette, who was projected into a complete circle. There was no doubt that the complete figure was herself.

The shadow belonging to her was just like her, standing quietly in the same place.

What is this light?

I tried hard to use my sluggish consciousness to think, but I felt that my mind was like a ball of paste, and I couldn't move it at all. Confused, I wanted to turn around, but I found that the shadow in my sight suddenly changed.

Very abruptly, in just a blink of an eye, as if a few frames of the video were removed, another black shadow appeared that overlapped with hers. After that, the black shadow flickered and swayed, but with the flickering, it gradually stretched itself out.

Something appeared behind him.

Delphinium realized this.

But she couldn't turn back.

All the hairs on her body stood up at this moment, her limbs became extremely cold and stiff, and her deep intuition kept telling her not to look back.

At this moment, the shadow covering Delphinium's body finally took shape in the flashing and appeared in front of Delphinium with incredible clarity.

It was a bug with its wings spread out.

Or, more precisely, it was a moth.

At this moment, Delphinium finally realized that those originally faint and chaotic noises were already close to its ears.

She raised her hand and looked at her arm.

——【Dear passengers, please note that this trip ends here and you have arrived at your destination, Fangting City.】

“…Huh, ha!”

After taking a deep breath, Lin Yun suddenly opened his eyes and stood up from his seat.

After breathing subconsciously for a moment, he looked around in a daze, only to find that he was in an unfamiliar cabin.

The noisy environment around him and the broadcast above his head gradually made him remember where he was - he was on the land ship, on the way back to Fangting City from Bai'an City.

"I am asleep?"

Mumbling to himself, he turned his head to look at the porthole beside him and saw his face reflected in the reflective window. It was not until this moment that he realized that his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

It seemed like I had just had a nightmare.

Lin Yun can only confirm this now.

He took out his phone from his pocket and checked the time. He found that there were two missed calls in the message column. One was from Lin Xiaolu and the other was from an unknown number.

He swiped open the lock screen and clicked on the message interface. He saw the message Lin Xiaolu left for him, which read: [What time will you be home tonight? ]

This girl actually cares about this?

Lin Yun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

You know, I am not returning to Fangting City to celebrate the festival as Cuiqiao, but as Lin Yun. Although the father-daughter relationship between him and Lin Xiaolu has eased a lot, they still often have nothing in common. His daughter can send such a message in advance, which is enough to show her concern.

He couldn't help but feel somewhat relieved by this, and his expression also eased a little. He typed in the message bar: [I will be back in an hour. ]

This was something that had been decided long ago, after all, today is the Full Moon Festival.

Several days ago, Lin Xiaolu sent a message to her father and Delphinium, wanting to know whether they would come back on the festival day.

She didn't know that these two messages would eventually be presented to the same person. The difference in tone made Lin Yun smile bitterly.

However, he did not agree to the request of celebrating the festival in the identity of Cuique in the end. He only gave a positive reply to one of the two messages sent by Lin Xiaolu, which was the one sent to Lin Yun.

As for Delphinium, he simply refused, saying that the investigation was not yet completed and he was busy with work.

There are actually reasons for making such a choice. The most important point is that Lin Yun still hopes to spend the Full Moon Festival with his daughter as a father, even though he knows that Lin Xiaolu may want to be with Cuiqiao more.

For the people of Donghua Prefecture, the Full Moon Festival is a festival with special symbolic meaning, and this day emphasizes the reunion of blood ties.

Maybe it would be easier to communicate with his daughter as Delphinium on weekdays, but the Full Moon Festival is different. This is a festival that should belong to the family. Regardless of the wishes of both parties, he should spend it with his daughter as a father. This is not only his emotional selfishness, but also an explanation of their relationship.

Another reason was that it was a rare holiday and he didn't want to waste his energy on the brain-burning identity game.

The investigation in Baian City consumed a lot of his energy, and the aftereffects of the excessive burst of magic power in the battle with the spider had not been alleviated, causing him to suffer from migraines from time to time.

Now, Lin Yun just wants to go home and enjoy a peaceful holiday, and find a moment of peace of mind for himself.

After replying to the message from Lin Xiaolu, he followed the other passengers out of the landship and officially set foot on the land of Fangting City. During this time, he also checked the call records, flipped through the missed calls, and called back the unfamiliar number.

Unfortunately, no one answered.

Just when he thought that the other party had dialed the wrong number, or it was just a silly prank, and then put down the phone, he suddenly felt the vibration of the incoming call.

When I looked closely, it was actually the unfamiliar phone number.

After answering the call and putting the phone to his ear, Lin Yun asked in confusion, "Hello, who is this?"

The "hissing" sound coming from the other end of the call made his breathing pause.

He remembered this voice, and the other party's next words seemed to be imminent because of it.

"……careful."

As this voice sounded, Lin Yun seemed to have returned to five months ago, when he first learned that Lin Xiaolu had become a magical girl.

The same unknown number, the same unclear voice, and the same "be careful".

Although there were noisy crowds all around him, he felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave in an instant, as if all the excitement had nothing to do with him anymore.

"...It's you?" Realizing the purpose of this call, he immediately said in a deep voice: "What's going on? Who are you? What's going to happen?"

"Hiss."

"Hey?"

"Be careful tonight...hiss."

The second half of the sentence on the other end of the phone was drowned out by the noise of the signal, so Lin Yun couldn't hear it clearly, so he immediately asked, "What did you say?"

"Be careful, tonight..."
