A pleasant afternoon.

In front of the bustling shopping mall, Wu Tina, dressed in simple casual clothes, stood under a street lamp, patiently waiting.

soon……

Finally, a familiar voice called out from not far away.

"Hey, Matsuna-chan!!!"

Qi Wu's voice brought a joyful smile to Wu Tina's face. When she looked over, she saw that Guli Xi, Zhenzhu, and Momo, who had already met up with her on the road, were all with Qi Wu.

Everyone arrived on time.

——

"I'm so sorry, Tina-chan, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." Qi Wu said apologetically.

"Oh no, it hasn't been that long. I just arrived recently," Wu Tina said, looking at everyone with a bit of embarrassment.

"Hehe, my mom heard that I was going to buy a swimsuit today, so she gave me a lot of money and told me to make sure I buy the cutest swimsuit ever."

"After you said that, my mom gave me some money so I could buy something nicer."

Wu Tina and Qi Wu exchanged a smile.

Not to be outdone, Guliqi hopped and skipped along, pulling out a generous sum of money for swimwear from her small handbag, which seemed to have been given to her by her mother.

As for pearls and momo.

The two people glanced at each other.

"Looks like we're all pretty much the same. My mom is really something. As soon as she heard that Jinju was going to buy a new swimsuit, she got all excited and started nagging me nonstop, telling me not to dress too maturely so that the guy wouldn't get too excited, and not to dress too conservatively so that the guy wouldn't be interested at all," Jinju complained.

"I'll just buy some ordinary swimsuits like before, even though my mom sometimes tells me to try dressing up a little cuter, saying that's how I'll look more like a girl," Mo sighed wearily.

Everyone seems to be in a similar situation.

Wu Tina didn't delay any longer and pointed towards the mall.

"Well then, everyone, pick out your swimsuits carefully today! And when the time comes... don't embarrass our evil organization on the beach!"

"Is this also an order from the Commander-in-Chief?" Zhenzhu asked.

"Hmph, that's right!"

"Oh dear, does the Commander-in-Chief even have to concern himself with such trivial matters?" Momo laughed.

"There's no point in saying more. A cute girl should wear a cute swimsuit, of course. Let's go."

——

Enter the shopping mall.

Qi Wu asked Wu Tina curiously.

"Hey, Mutina-chan."

"Um?"

"You said last time that we didn't need to worry about the cost of the beach trip, but what did you mean by that? If we actually go there, we'll need to think about food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation, right?"

Others cast the same glances, seemingly quite worried about this issue.

In response to this.

Wu Tina smiled confidently and began to speak eloquently.

"Don't worry about that, everyone. We'll be enjoying the same private beach and upscale five-star hotel as the magical girls, with private transportation provided. All expenses will be covered!"

"What???" x4

Everyone was so shocked they were almost speechless.

Qi Wu exclaimed excitedly, "How could there be such a good thing in the world? Am I dreaming?"

Kori nodded, both pleased and incredulous.

Zhenzhu said, "Is it real or fake? You're not just joking with us, are you?"

Only Momo frowned. "Something's not right, Mutina. What kind of deal did you make with Lorraine? We're an evil organization, how could we possibly be entitled to the same level of treatment as magical girls?"

——

Faced with everyone's doubts, shock, joy, and unease.

Wu Tina smiled meaningfully a few times, her smile revealing a hint of evil that sent chills down everyone's spines.

"Actually... don't be angry when I tell you."

“There’s definitely a problem!” Momo exclaimed.

"I heard about the magical girls going on a beach vacation from Brother Lin. I was quite envious at the time, and casually asked if we could go with them. Later... I didn't expect to actually get permission."

"Huh???" Zhenzhu was speechless.

"However, of course... there's no such thing as a free lunch. Since we can enjoy this beach vacation together, we have to pay a price."

"So, what's the price, Mai Tina-chan?" Qi Wu asked seriously.

"About this..."

Wu Tina smiled without saying a word, but her smile became increasingly mysterious.

——

——

at the same time.

It was also in a shopping mall corridor.

"Why did you come along, Kaoru and Haruka?"

Water Goddess Sayo, arm in arm with Lorraine, looked at her two good friends, Amakawa Kaoru and Hanabi Haruka, who were standing in front of her with a somewhat unpleasant expression.

Seeing her unhappy expression, Kaoru Amakawa smiled instead.

"Oh my, isn't this Xiaoye? What a coincidence! I never expected to meet you in a place like this. It seems... perhaps this is fate's arrangement."

"What kind of fate is this? You two aren't deliberately blocking us here, are you?!"

"Hey, you can't say things like that, Xiaoye. Xiaoyao and I just happened to be buying swimsuits, and we just happened to walk by here, and we just happened to bump into you guys who were also buying swimsuits. Since we've met by such a coincidence, why don't we go buy swimsuits together? How about it, hehe."
