Chapter 655 Magical Girls Also Need to Team Up
Su Tianqing had no idea how Shuo Ye knew the location of the rooftop she had chosen.
What is certain is that she flew over after she had set up the rooftop herself. The familiars did not find any trace of her following them. Moreover, she did not have any exaggerated invisibility magic like a certain rabbit. After all, such a large eagle owl flying among the city buildings during the day is quite conspicuous.
"Well……"
"So you've come to ask us for information about Qiu Gui and the others?"
Xin Yuehu sat by the coffee table and looked at the owl girl sitting upright opposite her on the sofa with surprise, her eyes filled with helplessness.
"Yes, I fly quite fast, so even if I get caught, I can escape quickly, so..."
"Why didn't the hyacinth come over by itself? Why did you have to come to us?" Hellcat said irritably, cracking his knuckles in a terrifying sound that frightened the winged girl into shrinking into a ball, too scared to move.
"Um, actually, I came here on my own... it wasn't Hyacinth-senpai who asked me to come..."
Shuoye was clearly nervous, as if afraid of being misunderstood. After snapping out of her initial shock, she quickly shook her head and explained.
"I originally planned to come by myself, but Nightingale and Iris-senpai both thought she wasn't very good at talking and said that she would definitely fight with you if she came, so I volunteered to come..."
Then the little bird was caught by Sagittarius. Su Tianqing thought to herself.
Sagittarius is practically Sakuya's nemesis—similar to the Cheshire Rabbit's stealth ability, precise long-range sniping, and unparalleled reconnaissance capabilities, making it impossible for Sakuya to escape Sagittarius's precise lock-on no matter what maneuvers she makes in the air. It can be said to be a comprehensive counter to Sakuya's characteristics of high mobility and low defense.
If one had to name a rival, she might also have to add another star witch named after a constellation that she is currently researching: Orion.
Just as the cat, fox, rabbit, and wolf were huddled together discussing how to handle the situation, two fox-like familiars carrying a snack plate came running up to the winged girl, holding up the plate and asking her with their eyes if she wanted some snacks.
"Oh, is it for me? No, no, I'm not hungry right now."
Shuoye quickly declined, and the little foxes immediately looked dejected, as if they were about to cry. The winged girl felt conflicted and had no choice but to pick up a piece of beef jerky from the plate and put it in her mouth. Only then did the fox familiars happily wag their tails and leave.
I never imagined that Xin Yuehu's rooftop had so many amazing functions... Magic is truly incredible. I wish I could use so many powerful spells in the future. Shuo Ye couldn't help but think to himself.
As she observed her surroundings, the discussion about Shuo Ye came to an end, and Xin Yuehu personally stepped forward to listen to the information that Shuo Ye wanted to know.
The winged girl was very honest and told him everything she wanted to know and the predicament she had encountered. She looked at Xin Yuehu across the coffee table with a hopeful gaze, eager to know the answers to the series of questions she had just asked.
This, however, troubled Su Tianqing. She wasn't bothered by Shuo Ye's honesty and straightforwardness, but rather by the lack of information from Fengxinzi and the others.
"So, you're saying you have absolutely no idea what happened to Qiu Gui and the others?"
"All we know is that Qiugui has gone missing. We only learned from the Hero Association here that they are trapped in some kind of dream world after we came to the mountain city... That's all we know."
Su Tianqing sighed, rubbing her forehead, unsure where to begin her explanation.
Should I really tell them, "Actually, Qiu Gui traded a bunch of limited-edition merchandise for a Mind World experience card from Fenrir, but it backfired"? I don't even want to imagine how disillusioned they would be if Hyacinth heard the exact words.
You see, Nan Xiaofeng is a huge fan of Qiu Gui. If she knew that Qiu Gui had exchanged so many merchandise items for a Heart World experience card...
...Nan Xiaofeng seems to have a trial card that I gave her too. Could she be following suit and using that card to exchange for merchandise with other people?
Thinking of this, Su Tianqing silently instructed her familiars to downgrade the permissions of all remaining experience cards by one level from super administrator to prevent mysterious incidents like those involving Qiu Gui and the others from happening again, thus taking remedial measures after the fact.
"Well... actually, it's like this..."
Su Tianqing decided to offer an explanation that was half-true and half-false.
"Because Ms. Qiu Gui came to see me, and we were planning to collaborate on some concerts and film production, I gave them one of the remaining Heart World experience cards."
"But they must have made some mistakes during use, incorporating a new type of dimensional monster from the mountain town that was still in an unconscious state, which led to the loss of control over the mental world..."
Shuoye suddenly realized and nodded repeatedly.
Fenrir, who was listening in, wore a fake smile but was actually expressionless. She knew very well that Xin Yuehu was hiding the fact that Qiu Gui was exchanging merchandise for cards. After some internal struggle, she decided to play along and completely conceal the matter.
After all, the other party had said during the transaction, "We've never met before tonight," a phrase usually uttered in black market transactions. The nature of this transaction was self-evident; it was the kind that absolutely could not be spoken aloud.
"—In short."
Having recounted the entire fabricated story, the fox spirit took a deep breath and addressed Shuo Ye,
"We've already launched a comprehensive investigation of the mountain city, but we haven't found any trace of Qiu Gui opening the mental world. We originally planned to conduct a more thorough, door-to-door search, but since you're here now, why don't you take over the investigation? What do you say?"
Shuo Ye was stunned for a moment, blinked, and his amber owl eyes were full of the innocence and blankness of a newbie. He had no idea how to respond to Xin Yuehu's words.
Should he agree or not? If he didn't agree, Shuoye felt he might not be able to leave this villainous rooftop standing up, but if he agreed... it didn't seem to align with his purpose for coming here...
But after much deliberation, the eagle owl girl finally agreed to take on the task. She meticulously recorded all the information in her notebook and took off from the edge of the rooftop.
Watching her silently depart, the fox spirit and the gray wolf beside her exchanged a glance, both revealing expressions of relief.
"Phew..." "Finally, I've managed to get this sorted out..."
"I don't think it's a rip-off. After all, Qiu Gui and the others are really trapped in the Dream World. We've just changed the way we describe the origin of the Dream World," Hellcat said, shrugging, not caring about these insignificant details.
With the strong support of the Hyacinth Squad, the matter of finding the entrance to the Dreamscape should be resolved soon.
Once they find the entrance and enter the Dreamscape, what kind of absurd dreamscape world will Miss Qiugui and her companions be trapped in?
Faced with this impending problem, Su Tianqing gazed at the distant sky over the mountain city and sighed helplessly.
Sigh... I shouldn't send out so many mind-image experience cards next time. It's enough for a small group to enjoy these things. Su Tianqing thought to herself.
