As a villain, what's wrong with raising a few magical girls?

The old man did not feel embarrassed at all about being seen through, and continued speaking calmly:

"After the valuation by the Gate Organization, I am willing to purchase it at the original price of the Anbang Group, and I can pay a deposit of two million in advance. Can you agree to this?"

"Well, you guessed it right, I agree~"

PS: Double update, still owe 115 chapters

PS2: I was dragged to attend someone else's wedding today... I just came back to write this chapter. I will try to resume the double-update schedule tomorrow, and I will try to arrange more updates OTZ

Chapter 23 - Encounter

"The one hundred dollars advanced by the White Mushroom Society, the two hundred dollars from the Anbang Group, and the two hundred dollars from the old man selling cards... I seem to have earned back all the money I was given for this business trip?"

On the streets of Licheng in the morning, Luo Shiyin looked at the three cash cards in her hand with a hint of emotion in her tone.

If she remembered correctly, the bank card given to her by her boss, which contained one-tenth of the organization's funds, only had this amount in it.

Moreover, no matter whether it is the White Mushroom Society or the Anbang Group, the amount they give is only the temporary amount they can take out, and there is still a considerable "balance payment" to be paid later.

"Senior, I think I understand why the organization is so rich. If she comes to a party like this one or twice, she can earn the annual salary of several cadres."

Putting the three cash cards back into his pocket, Luo Shiyin chuckled and said.

Hearing this, the headless girl walking beside her couldn't help but pause - which organization would consume a colleague every day to hold a meeting of cadres?

No wonder he was kicked out.

That's right, after successfully buying the top-level invitation letter with the "Anbang Group equivalent", this girl was persuaded by other members of the organization to leave the scene in a gentle tone like a laboratory graduate student soothing a machine soul, and promised that the meeting minutes and brief report would be given to her later.

Although Luo Shiyin felt that the tone was a bit subtle, as if the general manager was persuading the young boss to go to the next room to play with his mobile phone and not stay to disturb the meeting during a company executive meeting, she would rather stroll around the primary schools to look for the little cutie from yesterday than to watch a group of old men scheming against each other.

"I was spotted by the cutie almost as soon as I left the little girl's house last night. That means she was either nearby or she left something on the little girl... Well, both are very likely."

Just as this loli with long black hair was whispering to herself, trying to find the trace of the Lolita-style magical girl from last night by retracing her steps, a familiar figure that should not be here suddenly came into her sight.

He was a big boy wearing simple casual clothes, carrying a mountaineering bag and a baseball cap on his head.

At this moment, the other party was standing in front of three big guys who were also wearing casual clothes, but just by looking at their temperament, one could guess that they had military experience and were chatting about something. His brows were furrowed from time to time, as if he had encountered some difficulties.

"This guy...didn't he just find out the identity of the victim a few days ago? Why is he here?"

Looking at Yu Chengxuan's back, Luo Shiyin's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.

Perhaps her gaze was too obvious, the older boy who was being stared at suddenly turned his head, and then saw the loli with long black hair not far away, and immediately showed the same surprise on his face.

[Oops...I'm not wearing a mask.]

Seeing this, Luo Shiyin felt a tingling sensation in her heart. She quickly glanced at Luo Xue and her senior schoolmate beside her, and immediately decided on the identity she would use later.

On the other side, after whispering a few words to the three big men, Yu Chengxuan turned and walked towards this side, showing a sunny smile as he approached:

"What a coincidence, I can actually meet you here."

"You're... ah, the reserve security guard on the beach?"

At first, she showed a puzzled look, and then she suddenly realized it. As she spoke, Luo Shiyin looked at the big man who was leaving not far away:

"Are they your friends? The age difference seems to be quite big."

"That's it."

After smiling and responding, Chengxuan looked at the senior student who was silent beside him:

"Are you guys hanging out with friends too? This person dressed like this, could he be a famous star?"

"It's just about ultraviolet allergy. Is it really okay to pry into a girl's information like this?"

"I'm sorry, I'm a bit curious. How about this, there's a delicious sweet water shop nearby. I'll invite you to go there as an apology."

With an apologetic expression, Ji Chengxuan made the invitation very naturally.

At the same time, he typed an email with his hand in his pocket.

Feeling the vibration of the phone in her pocket, Luo Shiyin glanced at the other person's right hand in his pocket, and a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes - she said, how could this little guy believe her identity so easily?

Or, in other words, ever since that time in the bar, the other party has never given up suspecting that her vest and her real body on the beach are the same person.

The change in the black-haired girl's gaze naturally could not be hidden from a certain genius security guard in the future. A trace of seriousness immediately flashed in his eyes, but the expression on his face did not change. He continued to invite:

"I ate at that restaurant yesterday when I first came to Pearl City. It tasted really good."

"Really? But... you invited two little girls and a beautiful girl to the street at the same time. Little guy, your body is not big enough to be chopped with a few axes?"

The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a playful smile, Luo Shiyin looked at the boy in front of her with interest:

"You actually left my little canary behind and came to Pear City to play alone. This really makes me sad~"

“…It’s you.”

Hearing this familiar tone, Yu Chengxuan immediately stopped smiling and his expression became serious:

"So, back then at the Golden Coastline, you were deliberately trying to get information from me?"

"Ah, it seems that there have been a lot of misunderstandings."

Hearing this, Luo Shiyin raised her eyebrows unexpectedly, then smiled and pointed to a place not far away:

"I was wondering before, little guy, why have you been doubting my identity? It seems like you know something. It turns out... we are all focusing on the same target."

Hearing this, Yu Chengxuan subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of the other person's finger.

Almost at the same time, Luo Shiyin also activated the ability she obtained from her senior schoolmate - phantom creation.

So the next second, the big boy was surprised to find that a girl who looked exactly like the loli with long black hair in front of him was standing under a telephone pole not far away, looking at a map, with a little confusion on her slightly chubby face.

"How is it? Do you think that child looks exactly like me? Like someone copied him on purpose?"

The slightly teasing chuckle sounded again, causing Yu Chengxuan to look away, with a hint of surprise still lingering in his eyes:

"You...are twins?"

"No, I have no blood relationship with that little girl, and we haven't even had a good chat."

Seeing the shocked expression on the other person's face, Luo Shiyin couldn't help but raise her lips slightly, and the dissatisfaction in her heart that the other person had deceived her by using her little canary dissipated a little:

"Suddenly I discovered that there is someone in this world who looks exactly like me. Anyone who encounters such a magical thing would want to investigate it, right? So, suspicious little guy, are you still willing to buy me a drink now?"

Chapter 24 - Let’s Make a Deal Again

On the crowded street, Yu Chengxuan looked towards the electric pole again.

However, as Luo Shiyin withdrew her ability, the phantom also disappeared, as if it had just left.

Turning his gaze back to the smiling black-haired loli in front of him, Chengxuan was silent for a moment and then smiled again:

"Of course, as long as you don't mind it being a sweet shop."

……

As a store that can be opened in a commercial area, the dessert shop is not large in size, but the interior decoration is very exquisite.

However, what surprised Luo Shiyin the most was that every seat in the store was separated by glass panels, and with retractable door curtains, the customer's privacy was almost taken care of to the extreme. No wonder Yu Chengxuan chose this place to have the conversation.

After casually ordering a can of orange mixed with ice water, Luo Shiyin hugged Luo Xue and sat on the sofa in the innermost "private room".

"Ah Xue, no matter what that little guy says later, you don't have to pay attention to him. Just pretend he doesn't exist."

Rubbing the animal ears on the little girl's head in her arms, Luo Shiyin whispered instructions.

Although Luo Xue was puzzled by this arrangement, she still nodded obediently - it was not the first time she had done this after all.

After arranging the little girl who was most likely to reveal her identity, Luo Shiyin leaned against the back of the sofa and waited patiently for the big boy who would do all kinds of small tricks under the pretext of some sweet soup.

When she saw the other person on the street before, Luo Shiyin had already decided to contact him using the identity of [Anonymous]. Otherwise, when she found that the mobile phone in her pocket was moving, she would not have been so obvious and would not have exposed her identity actively.

The main reason for making this choice is that the senior is right next to him. As a weirdo who may continue to travel around in various places in the future, the suspicion of the headless girl will only get higher and higher. Rather than affecting his real body in the future, it is better to push all the risks to the vest.

"Sorry for the long wait. I asked the boss to prepare some snacks and they will be served up later."

Not long after, Yu Chengxuan came and sat down on the sofa, and the girl who was also holding something sat next to the loli with long black hair.

After seeing what the senior sister was holding, Luo Shiyin was stunned:

"Senior, are you drinking this?"

"?"

Hearing the question from her own maker, the senior student looked down at the drink in her hand—it was the Bitchenor soda produced in Japan. Is this normal?

"Nothing, it's just that seeing a girl drinking Bizi soda brings back some good memories."

With a light cough, Luo Shiyin looked back at the big boy in front of her:

"Have you done your little tricks?"

"Just tell my companions that I will be delayed for a short while."

Not surprised that the other party could see his little action, Ji Chengxuan gently folded his hands on the table:

"Does Miss Anonymous know the information about that little girl?"

"I know, but why are you asking?"

Luo Shiyin stirred the sugar water in the cup with a spoon, and a look of sudden realization appeared on her face:

"Ah~ I see. You're planning to vent your frustration after being bullied by using a girl who looks like me, right? That's a really bad idea~"

"The only thing I don't want is for you to say something bad about me..."

Although Ji Chengxuan was prepared for a headache when he made up his mind to invite the other party, he didn't expect it to come so early:

"I'm just a little curious."

"Just curious? But I feel...feel...hmm?"

Just when Luo Shiyin was about to continue teasing, she suddenly froze, her eyes revealing a subversive expression as if she saw a cute magical girl dragging a struggling and crying tentacle monster into the room and charging computer accessories.

Seeing this, Yu Chengxuan also turned his head to look behind him, and then laughed:

"Ah, those are the cold drinks and snacks I ordered earlier. Thank you for your hard work, waitress."

"No, it's okay."

With a forced smile on her face, a young girl who seemed to be just over 20 years old placed a cup of bright red liquid with a few chili peppers and ice cubes floating on the surface on the tray in front of Yu Chengxuan. It looked more like iced hot pot base than sugar water.

Under the complicated gazes of the people around him, the big boy picked up the cup of "sugar water" and took a big sip, then made a refreshing sound:

"Phew...I feel much better. Miss, please thank the manager for me. When I went to other dessert shops to order this much before, they refused to make it for me, but you guys were willing to do it."

"Okay, okay, enjoy your meal."

The corners of the young girl's eyes twitched slightly, and after forcing a smile, she left the box and quickly closed the door curtain, completely isolating herself from the scene that challenged her worldview.

In the box, Luo Shiyin looked at the cup of "bright red" sugar water and was silent for a few seconds before asking:

"Did you ask the boss to do the same thing when you went to other stores before? And you can still sit in front of me intact now."

"Well, don't worry about my little quirks... Miss Anonymous's purpose of coming to Pear City should not just be to wait for the Star of Deen, right?"

With a light cough, he changed the subject and put on a serious look.

Hearing this, Luo Shiyin held her chin with one hand and continued to stir the sugar water with a spoon:

"Since you know that name, it seems that you have indeed investigated something. But seeing that you can still talk to me calmly and not yell and be dragged away as a pervert... Little guy, you just investigated the location of their organization and followed them here, right?"

"From what Miss Anonymous said, it seems that she is sure that I will lose control of my emotions after knowing the inside story? But if it is just human body research, although I will be very angry, I just hope that the death penalty can be sentenced faster so that I don't lose my mind."

His progress was guessed in an instant, and Chengxuan's pupils shrank slightly, and he even subconsciously ignored the other party's venomous tongue.

Seeing this, Luo Shiyin smiled gently:

"You look so serious inside, but you try to keep a calm expression on your face. It's really funny no matter how many times I see it~"

"Really... Since I'm so interesting, can you ask Miss Anonymous a few questions?"

Under Luo Shiyin's surprised gaze, Yu Chengxuan suddenly smiled and calmly accepted the evaluation of "interesting".

Seeing the young man smiling but with a serious look in his eyes, Luo Shiyin also started laughing:

"So this is how you act when you're actually solving a case? You really have some sense of law and order, some sense of being a detective. In that case, let's make a few more deals~"

"Please say."

Hearing this, Yu Chengxuan's eyes changed slightly, and his body sat up straight involuntarily, while he prepared to confess his feelings to his childhood sweetheart again.
