My brother couldn't be a corrupted magical girl.

Chapter 270 Past

Chapter 270 Past

Midnight,

Within the Security Bureau,

Li Chen sat in a corner of the disaster monitoring center in Yeqiu City. His eyes looked slightly tired, but he still stared intently at the screen in front of him. From the outside,

He should be a model employee, but if you look closely, you'll notice that his keyboard tapping seems a bit too fast, and if you look at his computer screen, you'll find that he's actually slacking off while working.

The job can be simple in some ways, but it can also be complex in others.

If an alarm is received in a certain area of ​​Yeqiu City

He then had to determine the severity of the calamity immediately and quickly contact the magical girls in the vicinity to go to the scene of the calamity.

After contacting the magical girl,

He had to quickly retrieve the information about the abyssal monsters from the archives and send it to the nearby magical girls.

Then....

And that was it.

Simply wait quietly for the magical girl to resolve the calamity, then organize and upload the information about the opponent's battle.

The benefits are good, with five social insurances and one housing fund, one day on and two days off, and free meals and accommodation. The only downsides are the low salary and the somewhat boring workday.

So he found himself a side job writing novels.

Of course, this is mainly a hobby; whether he makes money or not is irrelevant. The main thing is that he likes magical girls.

He's always fantasized about finding a magical girl girlfriend, but he's also aware that with his current circumstances, he definitely can't find one in the real world, so he can only look for one in the world of novels.

suddenly,

A slight vibration interrupted his thoughts; it was a message from his phone.

In a quiet environment,

The voice seemed particularly abrupt. Li Chen scratched his head. He didn't have many friends; he was mostly in groups with his superiors. Who could have sent him this message?

He picked up his phone.

The flashing message on the screen made him frown—it was a message from an unknown number, brief yet all too familiar: "Would it be convenient to grab a coffee at a cafe near the Security Bureau, Brother Li Chen?"

"Phew~"

Upon seeing those familiar words, Li Chen's head throbbed even more. The other party hadn't contacted him for a year or two, and he had thought she had given up. He hadn't expected that this girl would still be so stubborn.

However, considering that the Violet Mage has now returned...

Most of the information related to the Moon Mountain incident has been gradually declassified, so there's no need to worry about leaks anymore.

He felt a sense of relief.

That's it,

Who told him to have been a member (liaison) of the Violet Judgment Squad? Although he had only been on the job for a short time, the Violet Judgment Squad was almost completely wiped out, and later the Lotus Mage needed treatment due to health problems.

Therefore, he was the one who applied for and investigated the subsequent personal compensation for the Violet Judgment Team and the aftermath of the Moon Mountain Calamity.

Li Chen stood up, stretched, and took his spare phone with him, just in case something unexpected happened while they were out eating.

This phone can also receive alarm information from various parts of Yeqiu City, but the disaster information displayed is not as detailed and concise as that displayed on a computer.

Stepping out of the office,

After glancing back at the empty monitoring room and confirming several times that no calamity had been triggered, he locked the glass door outside.

Similar to the area near the Magical Girl Headquarters,

There are also cafes near the security bureau.

It's just that it's not as fancy as the Magical Girl Headquarters. Here, drinking coffee is just drinking coffee. Li Chen usually doesn't want to come over. It's bad enough that it tastes bad, but it's also so expensive. He'd rather use that money to buy Nestlé instant coffee, which is cheaper and sweet.

However, this coffee shop does have one advantage: it's open 24 hours.

Step into the coffee shop,

Li Chen's gaze searched the nearby seats for a moment, and he quickly found a girl wearing a baseball cap sitting in a wheelchair.

"Brother Chen, over here."

Li Chen leaned closer and said with a wry smile:

"Why did you suddenly show up again? Didn't you say you'd given up?"

The girl nodded and said, "Well, I didn't intend to investigate further. I mainly wanted to figure out the specifics of what happened back then. But you can't fool me like you used to. Senior Wisteria Flower told me that information about the Moon Mountain incident has been gradually released."

"Sigh, who knows more about this matter than your captain, the Violet Mage herself? Since she's unwilling to talk about it, she must have her reasons. Why should an injured magical girl like you bother to investigate?"

Li Chen turned his gaze away from Chen Yao's wheelchair and sighed to himself.

Chen Yao picked up her teacup and took a small sip. She hadn't had coffee here in a long time, and it was still as bad as before.

"Sister Violet definitely doesn't want to tell me this. She just hopes I can stay healthy. But I can't get over it myself. Rather than living in ignorance, I'd rather die knowing the truth."

"Fine, fine, I'll just tell you directly. In fact, the scene had already been cleaned up once before you woke up. The situation at that time was countless times more tragic than what you saw when you woke up. Shortly after your Judgment Squad was ambushed by the Abyss Demoness, the Early Warning Center quickly sent a distress signal to the surrounding Judgment Squads."

Several teams rushed there very quickly, but almost the instant they stepped into the location of the calamity, their signals disappeared, and they never returned.

After this happened two or three times in a row, the higher-ups had no choice but to order the other adjudication teams to cease their rescue efforts.

Instead, they waited for the arrival of the S-rank adjudication team.

"Upon entering their destination and confirming the absence of abyssal monsters, the magical girls quickly began searching for survivors, but at the scene..."

Of the dozen or so magical girl bodies, not a single one was alive except for you. They were all killed instantly, and all were cruelly dismembered by scythes—the scene you witnessed when you woke up.

"I know this was all the work of Demoness Illusion Butterfly. Sooner or later, I will make her pay the price."

"Let me finish. When we arrived at the scene, we were also shocked by the cruel scene before us. We had never seen such a cruel and bloody scene before. We almost subconsciously thought that the Violet Judgment Team and several other Judgment Teams had been killed by the Demon Princess Illusion Butterfly. The related news reports were all based on this."

However, in order to ensure that every magical girl could return home safely, the Ye Qiu City Security Bureau invited many experts to come.

The houses were restored to their original state one by one.

It was at this moment that we discovered the true cause of death for these magical girls wasn't what it appeared to be. Their deaths, including those of your Violet Judgment Squad, were caused by being killed with three different weapons, and then dismembered by scythes. The main reason I'm telling you this is to tell you that your Violet Judgment Squad's enemy might not just be the Demoness Phantom Butterfly, but rather the entire Abyss Demoness.”

"Violet didn't tell you the full story of the calamity. I think the main reason is that the power of the four Abyss Demonesses was too great. It's impossible for you to complete the revenge alone." Li Chen looked at the girl in front of him and sighed slightly.

"Brother Chen, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I just want to know the specifics of what happened back then."

Chen Yao nodded, her eyes clear and bright, seemingly unblinded by hatred.

"call"

Li Chen took a deep breath and smiled:

"If you find staying in the hospital too boring, you can apply to become a liaison for the Kikyo Judgment Squad at the Security Bureau's Special Operations Department. This way, you can not only participate in social life, but also continue to fight alongside your Violet senior."

Upon hearing Li Chen's words,

Chen Yao's eyes also lit up suddenly.

This job looks really good; not only can you earn money, but you can also talk and fight alongside Sister Violet.

but,

She looked down at her legs.

If it were in the past

She'll probably apply right away.

But now, she wants to help her sister Violet do something more meaningful.

"Thank you, Brother Chen, your advice was very helpful."

Chen Yao nodded her thanks.

"It's nothing, it's nothing, it's what I should do. If you need anything in the future, you can always come to me."

Looking at the smiling girl, Li Chen felt as if his heart had been struck by something, and it was beating very fast. He waved his hand a little embarrassedly and said...

"Okay, I'll head back now. I've already paid for the coffee and ordered some takeout for you too. Working the night shift must be tough. It should be time to go now."

Chen Yao glanced at her phone and slowly said, "Li Chen turned his head and saw a deliveryman park his electric scooter outside the coffee shop, carrying a delivery bag that looked like it contained quite a lot of things."

"Um... thank you. Um, do you need me to take you back to the hospital?"

"No need, I was brought out by Sister Wisteria, you don't need to worry about my safety," Chen Yao said, pointing to the elegant woman sitting to the side scrolling through her phone.

"Okay, goodbye then. If you have any questions after you become a liaison officer, feel free to ask me."

"OK."

Chen Yao smiled and nodded.

A few minutes later,

Ning Zixuan quietly pushed Chen Yao along the dark street. The street was very quiet, with no trace of pedestrians or vehicles, only the soft and hazy glow of the streetlights.

"Xiao Yao, I just smelled the scent of youthful hormones on that young man."

"Sister Zixuan, don't joke around. Look at my disabled appearance, who would like me?"

Chen Yao said irritably.

"That's not necessarily true. I heard what you were saying. This young man was very concerned about you in his words, especially when you thanked him. I saw his face turn red. You can tell he's a pure and innocent virgin. As long as you don't have any problems, a guy like that can definitely live a stable life with you."

"Hmph, so you're not exactly an innocent virgin either, Zixuan. You liked Teacher Bai, but someone else beat you to it." Chen Yao didn't back down from Ning Zixuan's teasing.

"Oh, you little rascal, teasing me like that."

Ning Zixuan was somewhat taken aback by Chen Yao's words, and she stretched out her snow-white hands and began to rub Chen Yao's face in a retaliatory manner.

"Hee hee~ You were the one who started teasing me first! It's a double standard, isn't it!"

"Hmph, how can that be the same? If it weren't for that wicked woman taking advantage of my vulnerability, I would be with Bai Yuzhe by now. Why would I be here keeping you company, you little brat, staying up all night to go out for coffee? You're just wasting your time."

"Oh no, I forgot about it until you mentioned it. Oh no, I won't be able to sleep tonight."

Only then did Chen Yao belatedly realize that unlike Ning Zixuan, who only took a few sips, she had finished the entire cup.

"Serves you right."

Ning Zixuan smiled gloatingly, then her expression gradually turned serious:

"Xiao Yao, tell your sister the truth. What were you planning to do by asking about the Moon Mountain disaster in the middle of the night? I don't believe you were just trying to put your mind at ease."

"No, Zixuan, you're overthinking it. I just want to know the specifics of what happened on Moon Mountain back then," Chen Yao said earnestly, her face serious.

"That's for the best. But even if you really want to sneak out in the future, you'll have to get past me first. As a senior magical girl, I will absolutely not allow you to do anything reckless." Ning Zixuan snorted. "That's not right. Although I call you Sister Zixuan, in terms of the authority of a magical girl, I should be a bit higher than you."

Looking at Ning Zixuan's serious face, Chen Yao felt a surge of warmth and helplessness, but she decisively shook her head and quickly pointed out the errors in Ning Zixuan's words.

"So, to be fair, you should call me Senior Lotus."

Suddenly,

Ning Zixuan tapped Chen Yao's head with her slender, fair fingers. "You have no manners. Have you forgotten that I got into this hospital after doing a great service? My position is already higher than yours."

"Hmph, that's only because Sister Violet came to our rescue in time, otherwise..."

Chen Yao hadn't finished speaking when

A deafening explosion suddenly erupted from the Yeqiu City Comprehensive District Hospital in front of them. The shockwave ripped through the silence of the night, and the bright flames instantly illuminated the surrounding streets.

"Help! There's a monster!!"

"Murder!!"

"No, don't come any closer!!"

As the flames spread, the sounds emanating from inside the hospital were not only the sounds of burning, but also the desperate cries for help and terrified screams of patients and medical staff.

Almost at the instant the explosion occurred,

The surrounding shadowy figures instantly converged; they were special agents guarding the area. While quickly sealing off the scene, they swiftly dispatched one team to evacuate the trapped people, and another team to extinguish the raging fire.

The last group of people were specifically tasked with keeping an eye on the eerie black figures that lurked like ghosts in the hospital corridors.

Waiting for the arrival of the nearby adjudicator.

Ning Zixuan and Chen Yao looked at each other outside the hospital. Ning Zixuan quickly made a choice, "Xiao Yao, you're not feeling well, stay outside. I'll go in and see what's going on."

Chen Yao opened her mouth as if to say something, but then remembered Sister Violet's teachings, and in the end she said nothing, obediently staying outside with the special operations team.
