After get off work, I become a magical girl

He looked to be in his 20s, with a relatively youthful look, and had a small moustache that made him look a bit sinister. His hair was a bit long and was braided into a small braid at the back of his head. For some reason, there were a few strands of purple in his jet-black hair.

The man was wearing a black robe with strange words on it that Liu Wenqin couldn't understand, forming a golden, evil pictogram. Although it was impossible to tell what it was, it made people feel uneasy just from a distance.

——"It's a wise decision. I want to applaud you, Ms. Liu."

He had an ambiguous smile on his face and said in a somewhat strange voice: "A few calls you made will save thousands of lives. You are a veritable welfare director. I respect you very much."

"Then could you please set an example and stop letting your men embarrass a group of lonely, disabled, old and young people?"

Liu Wenqin felt her hands trembling, but she still insisted: "They can't possibly resist you. No one here will be able to resist you. Just take whatever you want. Why kill people?"

The reason why she said this was because at this moment, at the door of her office, a sturdy man in a guard uniform was leaning against the door frame, his head lowered, a baton in his hand, blood flowing down his guard uniform, and there was only a hole in his heart.

That was the security chief of the welfare home. After noticing the accident, he rushed to the director's office and tried to resist the man in black robe.

He was fearless and strong, and he was no match for the troublemakers he encountered in the courtyard. Therefore, even though he knew that the man in front of him was strange, he was not afraid and rushed towards the man directly. However, his bravery was in vain in front of the black-robed man, and he was killed by some unknown force in the blink of an eye, and fell to the ground at the door.

Afterwards, the group of black-robed men who followed the man dispersed and went to various places in the orphanage, killing those who dared to stand up and resist with bloody and cruel methods. They also forced Liu Wenqin to pass the signal of "submission and no killing" to various departments, thus quickly controlling the entire welfare home.

"For efficiency, ma'am."

Facing Liu Wenqin's questioning, the man spoke very politely, but his words were blunt: "We need to resolve the potential danger as quickly as possible - for example, if you don't hang up the phone call to the Strategy Bureau right now, there will be no more living people in this welfare home. Please believe me, we will act faster than the Strategy Bureau can get here."

Liu Wenqin's heart tightened when she heard this, and her hands, which had been placed behind the desk, also paused. She looked at the man in doubt, then looked at the screen of her mobile phone in a somewhat dejected manner, and hung up the phone with reluctance.

"You are simply a bunch of devils!"

After giving up asking the Strategy Bureau for help, she angrily accused: "You know exactly what kind of people those elderly people and children here are. If you still have a little conscience as a human being, how can you bear to do something to them?"

"What kind of people? Of course I know. To put it simply, they are a bunch of pitiful people, aren't they?"

The black-robed man smiled and spread his hands: "Children who have lost their loved ones, elderly people who have no one to take care of them, many of them are disabled, and some even have trouble taking care of themselves. It's really sad."

"It's just, poor guy, haha, poor guy."

He changed the subject and began to chant as if he were on a pilgrimage: "Who in this world is not a pitiful person? Those without glory are useless in life. After death, they become nutrients and receive the grace of God. Even if they really die, they should thank me. At least at this moment, they are with the grace of God."

When saying these words, the man's expression was extremely pious and faithful, as if these were his true thoughts, even though such thoughts seemed complete nonsense to ordinary people.

"You want them to thank you? That's unreasonable. You are really a lunatic..."

Liu Wenqin's eyes widened, her throat moving slightly. She looked at the man in front of her in disbelief, as if she was looking at a monster: "What on earth do you want to do by coming here?"

This question made the man stop chanting.

He put down his hands, looked at Liu Wenqin behind the desk with some lack of interest, and said in a strange voice:

"To be honest, although killing everyone here only takes time for us, you met my request and did not let the Strategy Bureau interrupt our meeting. In that case, I don't mind showing some small kindness among the mediocre values."

"Our people have already started searching this orphanage, so it doesn't matter if you continue to hide the truth. But you have to know that when we find the target ourselves, the answer you know will lose its corresponding value."

"So, I will ask you the question I asked you when we first met again, and I hope you can give me a good answer this time."

He slowly walked towards Liu Wenqin's desk, ignoring her attempts to retreat, lowered his head, placed his hand on his left eye, and exaggeratedly pulled open his eyelids:

"This is the last time I ask you a question. Tell me, Ms. Liu, is there a girl here who has lost her left eye?"

Chapter 70: Fleeing

2023-04-30

Tian Sheng never imagined that a law-abiding folk magic enthusiast like him who never took risks would one day encounter a terrorist attack from the Gray Magic Organization.

As an ordinary caregiver in Fangting City's No. 1 Welfare Home, he is now using magic to conceal his breath and hiding alone in the utility room of the sanatorium building.

The reason why he chose to work in this welfare home was, firstly, because the environment was stable and the salary was good; secondly, it was convenient for him to study magic techniques in his spare time.

He has worked as a caregiver here for five years, and his knowledge of magic techniques is barely entry-level. Recently, he is considering whether to change jobs and try to be admitted to the local Bureau of Strategy.

But as luck would have it, the very next day after he had this idea, the welfare home was hit by a terrorist attack.

The intruders were well-trained and they skillfully bypassed and lifted the alarm, controlled the vast majority of ordinary people, and killed those who dared to resist. Their bloody means plunged the entire sanatorium into silence.

Tian Sheng realized that something was wrong and immediately thought of trying to protect himself and escape secretly, but he found that the entire block had been sealed off by a large magic barrier. He wanted to get out, but he didn't have time to analyze the structure of the barrier, and it was impossible for him to break through it with his pitiful magic strength.

This also further proves that the ones who came to carry out the terrorist attack were not ordinary criminals, but were most likely the gray magic organization that folk magicians were terrified of.

Gray Magic Organization is a general term used to refer to magicians who engage in illegal activities. Most of these groups are dens of filth and gather villains who conduct illegal research and criminal activities. To put it more bluntly, they are criminal gangs that have mastered the power of magic.

There are actually quite a few such organizations, and every member of them is a complete villain to ordinary people. Even people like Tian Sheng who also studies the techniques are unwilling to deal with them.

Anyway, there is a Special Policy Bureau in the city responsible for maintaining order. Every year, they destroy several dens and arrest a large number of magic criminals. People like this will be arrested one day, so I just need to stay away from them.

He has always believed this, and it is indeed true.

But he had never expected that there would be such an arrogant group of people who would collectively attack a public service agency operated by the municipal government in broad daylight.

The enemy came unexpectedly and was clearly stronger than him, so he had no choice but to hide alone.

In terms of the level of skill in using magic, although he has already entered the stage, he is still far from being an expert, and he cannot even be called a "magician". In terms of the number and strength of magic skills he has mastered, he is also pitifully few. If he challenges an entire team of opponents alone, he will probably die without knowing how he died.

Fortunately, he still had enough magic power left, so he could continue using the spell to conceal his breathing and magic power fluctuations without any problem. He didn't have to worry about being discovered in the short term.

He had already made plans and decided to keep his troops in place, waiting for the Yi Ce Bureau to come to the rescue, and act like a coward in the meantime.

But after hiding in the utility room for a while, the sound coming from the corridor caught his attention.

It seemed like someone was passing by here, he judged so. In the end, he couldn't keep his determination not long ago, he secretly pushed the door open a little and peeked out.

Then, he saw a somewhat familiar figure.

……

……

Bai Jingxuan was unable to return to her room as usual.

Because just as she quickened her pace and tried to return to the room, she saw several masked men in black robes.

Although she didn't know what these people were here for, just from the silence in the welfare home and their ill-intentioned attitude, Bai Jingxuan could feel that she should not be exposed to their sight.

So she hid.

It was undoubtedly dangerous to continue walking in the corridor, and there was no guarantee that these people would come looking for her if she returned to the room, so Bai Jingxuan could only turn around and run in the direction she came from.

According to her thoughts, she had not encountered these uninvited guests on the way here, so the courtyard should still be safe.

But this expectation is destined to be dashed.

Because before she walked out of the porch of the nursing building, she heard a voice coming from the front:

"Still haven't found it?"

"I've searched this open space for places where people could hide, but there's nothing there."

"What the hell, where on earth can a little girl hide? Could it be that the place is marked wrong?"

"Impossible. The information provided by the informant has always been accurate. The whereabouts of all witnesses after the incident at Xizhao Minxin Hospital are recorded. The child was undoubtedly sent here."

"Not adopted?"

"Previous information is that there is none. We are checking with the people here."

"Where could it be? Could it be hidden by someone?"

"We can't rule out this possibility. Anyway, let's pass the results here to Bingchu San first. He will decide whether to check every room one by one."

After the two had this conversation, they stopped talking. Soon, noisy footsteps were heard, and gradually approached the direction where Bai Jingxuan was.

Bai Jingxuan was a little confused about the content of their conversation. She could only judge from the few words like "Xizhao Minxin Hospital" and "little girl" that they seemed to be talking about her.

Because, three years ago, she and her parents died in the Xizhao Minxin Hospital. After that, she was the only orphan sent to this welfare home.

After realizing that she might be the other party's target, Bai Jingxuan had many guesses in her mind, but she quickly shook her head, realizing that now was not the time to think too much, and she had to find another direction to leave.

These people came with such bad intentions that there was probably no good intention for them to find her, so it would be better for her to hide.

Bai Jingxuan was a very active child, she did what she thought, and then she slowly backed away along the wall, turned around and left with light steps. She wanted to escape before the other party walked into the corridor and exposed herself to their sight.

There are two staircases on the left and right sides of the corridor, which can lead to the second floor. Although she doesn't know how many of their people are on the second floor, it seems that this is the only direction for her to escape.

Bai Jingxuan walked up the stairs lightly, but before she took a few steps, she heard the footsteps at the entrance of the corridor change in tone. Such a sound obviously meant that someone stepped into the building from the cement floor outside and stepped on the floor tiles.

Those people are coming.

Listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer behind her and feeling her own heartbeat gradually accelerating, Bai Jingxuan pursed her lips, subconsciously held her breath, and walked upstairs as fast as she could in this state.

Because the stairs were very wide, if she wanted to completely avoid people's sight, she had to go up to the second floor before they reached the entrance of the stairs.

The two groups of people in the corridor were moving forward with completely different mentalities. Seeing their target getting closer and closer, the corner of the second floor was already in sight. Bai Jingxuan seemed to have seen the scene of her successful escape.

But at this moment, she suddenly felt that her calves had lost sensation, and then she lost control of them.

Her legs could no longer exert force, and she could no longer cross the stairs. It was like a malfunctioning mechanical part that no longer had any activity. Unable to stop her own forward momentum, Bai Jingxuan leaned forward and fell on the stairs.

Bang!

The sound of clothes, torsos and stairs colliding suddenly sounded in the corridor.

Chapter 71 Walking Together

2023-04-30

The footsteps in the corridor on the first floor stopped.

The two men in black robes who were walking among them raised their heads and looked vigilantly towards the stairs to the second floor.

There, Bai Jingxuan lay motionless on the ground, like a turtle, not wanting to get up.

Although she knew that this was useless, whether she pretended to be dead or ignorant, she could not change the fact that she had been exposed. But she still found it difficult to accept that she had failed to escape in this way.

It would be extremely inappropriate for the old illness to suddenly relapse at this time.

She suffered from a congenital disease that could not be diagnosed in the hospital. The cause was unknown, and there were no cases like hers in the family genetic genealogy. Yet it happened to her alone.

The clinical manifestation of this disease is like now, the limb muscles suddenly lose control, accompanied by weakness, just like partial paralysis. Unlike epilepsy in the traditional sense: during this process, Bai Jingxuan's mind is clear and she can perceive time and changes in the external environment normally.

The attacks were irregular, and no known drugs could alleviate them. The only good thing was that the disease usually only affected skeletal muscles and lasted for a few minutes. Bai Jingxuan remembered hearing from the nurse that if a similar disease affected the myocardium, she might not be alive today.

And now, at such a critical moment, no matter which part of the body is affected, it makes no difference to Bai Jingxuan.
