After get off work, I become a magical girl

“Mimosa!”

Bai Ji glanced at the magical girl in the light red dress with some annoyance: "Don't say unnecessary things."

"Oh, okay..." The pink magical girl suddenly realized her speechlessness and shrank her neck a little timidly.

"Hello, Patrolman. I'm sorry that my teammate said something rude."

Bai Ji bowed to the Delphinium briefly, still keeping a distance from it, and asked seriously: "It's just that Bai'an City is actually in a very special situation now. Please don't blame me for being suspicious. Can you show me something that can prove your identity?"

Her request was actually a bit rude, and she seemed to know it herself, so when she made this request, Delphinium could clearly see that her body was a little stiff.

However, Kuei Chrysanthemum herself did not care about such red tape. For her, resolving the matter smoothly was the most important thing, so she did not say much, but took off her certification card and showed it to Bai Ji: "This is my certification card."

Bai Ji's expression relaxed when he heard that, and then he carefully looked at the contents on the plaque in Cuiqiao's hand.

"41076, a flower card, and it also has the inspector's logo, right... Cornflower?" After seeing the code on the badge, Bai Ji was obviously stunned.

"Personal privacy." Delphinium didn't intend to explain more about the code name, and just put away her certification card. "This should be enough to prove my identity. Next, can we talk about what I want to ask?"

"No, I'm just... okay."

Bai Ji paused, then continued: "You want to ask about Senior Maowei and the others, right? They came to Baian City about ten days ago, and the first thing they did was..."

——“Waaaaaaah!”

She was only halfway through her words when her voice was suddenly interrupted.

Because the blonde girl who was originally limp on her shoulder suddenly struggled violently, first shouting inexplicably, then breaking free from Bai Ji's shoulder and falling directly from the air.

Fortunately, the blonde girl reacted quickly enough. After realizing that she was falling, she quickly used her ability to float in the air. Then she suddenly opened her eyes and said in panic, "I don't want to be caught by a weird uncle!"

Her series of performances attracted the attention of everyone present. Only when she calmed down a little did Kuaija look at Baiji and ask, "What's going on?"

"Huh, huh, eh? White thistle? Mimosa? Why are you here?"

The blonde girl was still clearly at a loss for words. She looked around blankly at first, then saw the Delphinium not far away. After staring at it for a moment, she suddenly pointed at the Delphinium and shouted, "Ah! Save my people!"

Her jumpy style was actually a bit annoying, but Delphinium somehow saw a familiar shadow in her, so she didn't show any disgust.

"What? Saved you? Senior Inspector?" On the other side, after hearing the words of the blonde girl, Bai Ji looked at the two of them with some surprise.

"Yes! I'm telling you! I said before that I felt some suspicious magic power, and then I met a super weird uncle who was obviously not a good guy. He didn't even move his hands, but he inexplicably plotted against me and knocked me down! Sister Dengzhan might have been plotted against by him in the same way!"

The blonde girl flew to the side of Delphinium with a few leaps, grabbed the golden robe behind Delphinium and said, "But he was chased away before he could do anything to me, because after a while, this senior suddenly appeared! And then I fainted!"

She was very emotional, but her description was so confusing that it was impossible to understand what was happening.

Even though Kusanagi knew the truth, she didn't want to pay attention to her. She ignored the blonde girl's words and asked Baiji in front of her, "Let's make it clear first, who is the lantern?"

Hearing Delphinium's question, Bai Ji first glared at the blonde girl next to him, and then began to explain in her confused eyes:

"In fact, this is why we are on alert now. Our magical girl team in Baian City has a total of 5 people, 4 of whom are permanent members. Among our 4 permanent members, the most experienced one is one of our seniors, and her code name is Lantern."

She paused after she finished speaking, then said hesitantly: "But, just yesterday, Dengzhan... disappeared."

This news made Delphinium's expression become serious: "Missing?"

It’s no wonder that she reacted so strongly. At this stage, the meaning of this word has become particularly special.

From the disappearance of the sower in Fangting City two years ago, to the disappearance of the Investigation Institute's Cat Tail Team not long ago, to the current team in Bai'an City, this is the third time she has heard the term "missing".

You know, with the magical girl's martial arts and the power of the magic empire, it is extremely difficult to make a magical girl disappear silently, but now, such things are happening one after another?

"Yes, just like Cattail-senpai and the others, they disappeared without a word."

Seeing that Delphinium was serious, White Thistle also answered seriously: "Besides, she left us a message before she disappeared."

"what news?"

"She said she spotted a 'suspicious man' and decided to follow him."

This sentence startled Delphinium.

——"It's obviously the uncle I met!"

The blonde girl shouted excitedly, "He used magic secretly at the scene of the beast's destruction, and he even knocked me out for no apparent reason! It's really dangerous! So scary! You almost couldn't see me!"

She seemed to recall her emotions at that time, and became obviously frightened. She became more and more excited as she spoke, and finally she simply lay on the shoulder of the Jade Bird, grabbing her robe, and crying loudly: "I thought I would disappear like Sister Dengzhan! If I hadn't been rescued by this senior, I might have been taken away by a strange uncle and died in this or that way!"

boom!

Unable to bear it any longer, Delphinium punched her hard on the forehead.

The blonde girl was obviously dazed by the blow. She covered her head and looked at Delphinium: "Huh? Why are you hitting me?"

"Miss, please don't rub your snot on my cloak."

Delphinium pushed her aside with some disdain and said coldly: "Also, don't curse your companions casually."

"Snot! Do I have a runny nose?"

The blonde girl hurriedly touched her nose in panic, but found no snot, which was quite strange for a moment.

"Senior Patrolman is right." Bai Ji nodded in agreement. "Although Senior Dengzhan is missing, we should firmly believe that she is still alive. That's why we are looking for her everywhere today."

"That's why she..." Delphinium gestured to the blonde girl beside her.

"Yes, that's why she was so excited." Bai Ji said helplessly, "Mu Baili has a good relationship with Senior Dengzhan, and now she is a little desperate. Senior Patrol Envoy, if it is indeed you who saved her, may I ask if you really saw the 'suspicious man' she mentioned?"

"I asked, and he was just a magician passing by." Kui Ching said calmly, lying with his eyes open. "He said he just happened to be passing by and wanted to contact the Strategy Bureau to control the situation. He had nothing to do with the attack by the beasts."

"He's lying to you, Senior Inspector!"

The blonde girl interrupted their conversation again and said confidently, "He lied to me in the beginning, saying that he was just an ordinary person and didn't know anything about magic. But in fact, he could easily dodge my attacks and even sneak attack me!"

"You attacked ordinary people?" Bai Ji noticed the omission in her words and frowned, "I should have told you many times that no matter what the reason, magical girls cannot hurt ordinary people."

"But what if he is the 'Black Cinder Dawn' that Sister Dengzhan mentioned?"

The blonde girl said a little aggrievedly: "You know, those people are very likely the culprits of Sister Dengzhan's disappearance, and they can also command the remaining beasts!"

"This..." Bai Ji hesitated.

"After all, no matter how you look at it, this incident looks like the work of Black Cinder Dawn!"

Feeling that her words had some truth, the blonde girl immediately pressed the issue: "You've also seen the wanted posters for some of them, right? Both men and women look like they are very educated and refined villains, just like the uncle I saw!"

"Senior Patrolman, who knows what bad ideas he had when he lied to you! If you weren't so strong, he would have attacked you by surprise and taken you away..."

boom!

Delphinium punched her in the head again.

"Why did you hit me again!" The blonde girl said aggrievedly, covering her forehead.

"It's noisy."

Delphinium withdrew her hand, still with an indifferent expression: "And you shouldn't question my judgment. If he is the Black Cinder Dawn you mentioned, I can't be wrong."

"Eh..." The blonde girl wanted to argue, but Bai Ji next to her kept signaling with her eyes, and finally made her nod reluctantly, "Okay."

"So, one of your team members is also missing now."

After finishing this boring topic, Kuei-Jin folded her arms and confirmed with Bai Ji again, "Just like the Cat Tail Team that came to Bai'an City, they all suddenly disappeared, and before they disappeared, they left a message saying that they had found a 'suspicious man'?"

"Yes, that's right."

Bai Ji nodded, looking a little worried: "For further information, we are also investigating it ourselves. I'm sorry that I can't provide you with any valuable information."

"So what about Team Cattail?"

Delphinium asked, "Did they say anything to you when they came here?"

"As for this, it was Senior Dengzhan who was talking to them at the time."

Bai Ji looked around in embarrassment: "Because they came during the day... and the three of us still have to go to school."

"What you mean is, if we can't find the lantern you mentioned, we also won't know the original purpose of the Cat Tail Team?" Delphinium asked thoughtfully.

“Well, well, actually, there should be one more person who knows…” At this moment, the girl in the light red dress who had been silent before suddenly spoke cautiously.

"Who?" Delphinium immediately turned her gaze towards her.

The magical girl in the light red dress stammered and was unable to speak when asked by Delphinium.

She seemed to be very timid and had been hiding aside without saying much. When being questioned so seriously by Delphinium, she did not dare to answer for a moment.

"She must have meant Polly."

Knowing her teammate's personality, Bai Ji took over the conversation and explained. Soon, she realized that she had been a little vague and still failed to explain clearly, so she added:

"It's our sower, a goblin."

Chapter 116 Bai'an City Strategy Bureau

2023-04-30

Following this group of local magical girls leaving the new city area of ​​Baian City, Delphinium flew with them to a street in the old city area.

The streets we visited are a bit old, and most of the buildings on the roadside are quite old. Of course, this does not affect the normal lives of the people who have lived here for a long time.

Because it is an old city area, the streets are lined with storefronts and various shops. Also, because the characteristic of Bai'an City is music, a considerable number of shops have this element, including music restaurants, piano stores, performance halls and the like.

The place where the magical girls took Delphinium was a piano store that looked quite old.

"This is where we usually operate."

Bai Ji introduced it this way: "This is the music store founded by Dengzhan's parents. Later, her parents handed the store over to her, so now Dengzhan is the store manager here."

Although the appearance of this music store is a bit old, the interior is clean and tidy, and the air is filled with a faint wood fragrance. It can be seen that someone has put a lot of effort in this aspect. The furnishings in the store are nothing special. There are various brands and models of musical instruments hanging on the walls, and large items such as pianos are placed in the inner area. Even though it is already night, there are still many customers stopping here.

Delphinium followed Baiji and his party through the business area in front, and then walked into the small door at the back and came to the second floor of the piano store. After passing through the narrow and steep stairs, the space suddenly opened up, and what caught Delphinium's eyes was a private space - an activity room full of life.

This seemed to have been a recording studio. There were still some old-fashioned recording equipment placed in the corners, indicating its former use. However, it has now been transformed into a living area with various furniture added.

It was here that Delphinium first met Polly, the sower of Baian City.

This fairy named Polly has an appearance like a raccoon. He is covered with fur and looks very honest and cute.

And when Delphinium first encounters it, what it is doing is... playing the guitar.

This is a scene that is difficult to describe. A cute-looking little raccoon is sitting on the ground with a guitar spread out in front of it. One of its paws is pressing the chords while the other is plucking the strings deftly.

The melody of the song was soothing and sad, as if it expressed endless sorrow. At the same time, it made Delphinium feel somewhat familiar. She had not paid attention to pop music for many years, but this seemed to be a song that had been popular several years ago.
