From the voice, it can be heard that it is Moko, and she is very excited: "I found a girl with magical talent. We can recruit new magical girls!"

New magical girl.

Delphinium frowned, because deep down, she didn't really want to add any more magical girls. Firstly, it meant letting a girl enter a dangerous world, and secondly, it would be difficult to guarantee the quality of the team members.

It’s just that Fangting City is really short of magical girls right now, and she also has to consider training a team for Lin Xiaolu, and now she should be able to take care of the safety of the newcomers...

The series of thoughts took only a few breaths. She smoothed her brows, made a decision, and said calmly:

"where is it?"

Chapter 12 Electric Town

2023-04-30

Fangting City, Xizhao District, the Electric Street near Central Avenue is the most prosperous pedestrian commercial area in the entire city.

Cuiqiao rubbed his wrist and walked out of a deserted alley, ignoring the occasional glances from the people around him. After walking about two intersections, he saw Lin Xiaolu in school uniform at the agreed place.

She quickened her pace, walked forward, and greeted him indifferently: "I'm here."

"Delphinium?"

Lin Xiaolu looked over when she heard that. Her eyes first widened, then lit up. She circled around the delphinium and shouted with an expression as if she had seen something rare: "It's so beautiful. This dress is so cute!"

"is it?"

Delphinium raised her sleeves and looked around, noncommittal: "Thank you for the compliment."

"Ah... I'm so envious. I wish I could wear something this light and soft. This is the magical girl style I want!"

“I think you can do it.”

"Can I take a picture?" Lin Xiaolu took out her cell phone, eager to try.

"Um...what do you want?"

It’s not that Delphinium can’t tell whether a dress is cute or not, but she herself doesn’t know how she looks in her current dress. After all, the dress she’s wearing was just bought, and she hasn’t even tried it on.

Delphinium had not previously prepared regular clothes for her magical girl form, so after being told that her target was in the electronics town and that she had to go downtown in the form of Delphinium, she had no choice but to go to the department store and buy herself a few pieces.

And because he was too conspicuous to enter the mall wearing the magical girl's magic costume with the appearance of Delphinium, he finally went to the children's clothing area in the guise of Lin Yun.

As an average adult male, Lin Yun is 183cm tall. Even when he was 14 years old and had just gained the power of a magical girl, he was about 170cm tall. This figure is very healthy among men, and even makes many of his peers slightly envious. But for some reason, when he became a magical girl and turned into Delphinium, his proud height shrank to only 139cm.

Is this a case of things turning into the opposite when they reach their extremes? Or is it some strange coincidence? Lin Yun never figured it out.

This also meant that when he wanted to buy clothes for his Delphinium form, it was difficult to buy women's clothing normally unless they were custom made.

In contrast, buying children's clothing is much more convenient and hassle-free. Not only are the sizes easy to match, but there are also skirts and pants. So, Lin Yun, who lied that she was buying clothes for her daughter, reported the size that suited Delphinium, and walked into a children's clothing store with the warm welcome of the clerk.

During the shopping, the salesperson also asked him if he had a photo of his daughter, saying that she could give more appropriate suggestions by looking at her daughter's specific appearance. However, Lin Yun did not have a narcissistic habit and would not save photos of herself as a magical girl on her phone. She just chose a few clothes and skirts that were said to be "new styles of the season" and left quickly.

After walking out of the department store, he randomly found a relatively formal-looking chain motel on the side of the road, checked into an hourly room, changed his clothes, and then took the high-altitude flying route directly to the electronics street.

He wasn't worried about whether the clothes would fit him or not.

He actually knew that Delphinium's appearance could be described as "exquisite and cute" from a general aesthetic point of view, and was considered quite outstanding even among the average-looking magical girls.

Because of this, as long as she wears normal clothes and matches the accessories and hairstyle reasonably, she will not look too ugly.

Although as a father, he felt complicated and even a little bit weird when his daughter called him "cute" in this situation, this feeling was soon calmed down.

What else could he say? Dealing with the past indifferently was the best solution.

Without further ado, after this one-sided fashion show, Delphinium got straight to the point:

"So? Where is the child Moko was talking about?"

"Ah, about this..."

When this matter was mentioned, Lin Xiaolu blinked and slowly turned her head to look at Mo Ke: "What do you mean, lost?"

"Lost?" Delphinium also glanced at Moko.

"No!"

Mo Kan saw the gaze of the Jade Bird and shuddered all over. He immediately retorted: "It's not that I lost her, but that child kept going to crowded places, and the aura of magic was covered up!"

"So you lost it in the end?" Delphinium put one hand on her hips.

"That's true." Mo Ke muttered guiltily, "But I can feel that she is still in this area, I just don't know her exact location."

"You guy..."

Delphinium drooped her eyelids and sighed softly. She could guarantee that the pink cat in front of her was the most unreliable sower she had ever seen in her life as a magical girl.

Other sowers, although being fairies, are somewhat tricky, they still have no problem with their job. They can't be called good helpers of magical girls, but at least they can find talented children, transmit information between the kingdom and magical girls, and sense the location and strength of residual beasts... These auxiliary tasks are actually done very well.

As for Moko, it was clumsy even when doing its job, which made people feel uneasy.

But all these can be put aside. The most important thing right now is to find the girl with magical talent, so Delphinium did not make a fuss about this matter and quickly moved on to the topic: "Then what can we do now? Wait here for Moko to lock on the other party's position?"

"Well...how about we go look for a few stores?"

Lin Xiaolu suggested: "That girl should be here to shop and won't leave for a while. Why don't we go and play together? Maybe we can run into her along the way."

“Not safe.”

Delphinium shook her head and calmly analyzed: "She might just come here to buy something and leave after buying. If we don't keep an eye on her, it will be even harder to find her if she leaves the electronics street when we are not paying attention."

"Then let Moko continue to look for someone, and we'll go play?"

Lin Xiaolu's suggestion made Mo Ke let out a surprised "eh".

"That doesn't seem to be a problem..." Mo Ke was even more shocked by Cuiqiao's opinion.

It quickly flew between the two people, waving its two paws: "You can't do this! Even if I am responsible for losing the person, you can't leave me alone to play, that's too cruel!"

"Where on earth do you get the confidence to say such things?"

Delphinium glanced at it and sighed, "Ah, that's right. I'm not comfortable letting you follow alone."

"In that case, let's use the dumbest method. You and I will split up and guard the two entrances and exits of the electrical street. Once we find the target, we will..."

——"So what?" A questioning voice came from Delphinium's ear.

"Just contact each other by phone, then stop the child first and wait for Moko to come..." Cuique wanted to continue speaking, but within two seconds, she suddenly realized that the voice asking the question was not right, or rather, a little strange.

She glanced at Lin Xiaolu in front of her and found that she was looking above her head with a slightly timid expression.

Delphinium speculated: The top of my head? The hair? No, from this position, she is not looking at the top of my head, but at my back?

After a brief thought, she realized something and turned around: a strange girl was standing there with her hands behind her back, a hint of inquiry in her pure eyes, her hands behind her back, a smile on her face.

The girl looked young, only slightly taller than Lin Xiaolu, and had a very childish face, but her clothes looked quite mature and fancy.

The black waisted suspender skirt and loose lace white shirt show her girlishness. Her short black hair is shoulder-length, fluffy, slightly curled, and the bottom of her neat bangs is dyed purple. She has a layer of light makeup on her face, and her thin lips are obviously painted with lipstick. The false eyelashes under her eyelids make her eyes more watery. There is a faint light on her earlobes, probably because she is wearing earrings.

She looked at the combination of two people and one demon in front of her, stepped forward, and leaned closer to Mo Ke: "What is that cat over there, a holographic projection? Augmented reality?"

Chapter 13 Testing

2023-04-30

Delphinium looked at the girl in front of her, her heart moved slightly.

It’s not because of the other person’s clothes or appearance. She doesn’t like to judge people by their appearance.

The "cat" they were referring to was obviously Moko who had been following them all the time.

Ordinary people cannot see fairies like Moko, and under normal circumstances they cannot even detect the existence of fairies. It can be seen that the girl in front of him is not an ordinary person.

Combining her question with Lin Xiaolu's reaction behind her, it is not difficult to analyze that she is the girl with "magical talent" and the target that this group of people are looking for.

"You, you, when did you get here?!"

No one knew when, but Lin Xiaolu had already hidden behind the Jade Bird. She faced the girl and asked in a rather timid tone, "I clearly saw you all walking forward!"

"Go forward...ah, I found an excuse and separated from them."

The girl blinked and smiled, "Because I saw you following me, I wanted to ask you what you were doing."

"See me? Impossible!"

Lin Xiaolu shook her head and pointed at the girl: "There are so many people on the street, and I have been blending in with the crowd. How did you find out that I was following you!"

"But you're wearing the same school uniform as me."

The girl said this and tilted her head: "You are the only student from the same school that I can see around here, so you are very conspicuous in my eyes."

"From the same school? Don't try to use that as an excuse..."

Halfway through her words, as if realizing something, Lin Xiaolu carefully looked at the girl's appearance, then as if remembering something, she shouted in astonishment, "Ah, I remember! You are one of those bad girls in our grade!"

The words "bad hot girl" caught the attention of Delphinium next to her, and she couldn't help but look at the girl again.

With makeup, highlights and pierced ears, this look can indeed be considered a "hot girl" for a junior high school student, but the "bad" element is not reflected.

“A small group of bad hot girls…hahaha.”

The girl did not show any obvious aversion to this word, and even laughed out loud as if she heard something interesting: "This is so interesting, is this how they call us at school? Or is this your original idea?"

Lin Xiaolu did not answer, but took two steps back and grabbed Delphinium: "Delphinium, this guy is very dangerous!"

"Dangerous?" The girl looked puzzled upon hearing such a comment.

Lin Xiaolu said righteously: "I've seen it before, a group of hot girls like her bullying other girls!"

“But I have never bullied anyone.”

The girl retorted: "You are slandering me!"

"Even if you're not bullying anyone, your appearance is immoral!"

"This is just a normal way of dressing myself up."

The girl pouted: "It's better for girls to make themselves look more fashionable, right?"

"Because it's so shameless!"
