After learning about the situation of magical girls in this world from Sakura Kyoko, even the dumbest and dullest people realized that something was wrong. Therefore, their goal changed again.

"Now our main goal is to find the QB."

Fang Zheng gave the order decisively.

"But you have to pay attention. This time we will change direction. Illya, Kuro, and Sakura, you three will be responsible for searching. You all have your own unique skills to avoid detection, so I think this should not be difficult for you."

"Yes, sir."

"I understand, big brother."

"Understood, Master."

Hearing Fang Zheng's order, Sakura, Illya and Xiao Hei all nodded.

"Your goal this time is very simple. Since they are magical girls, I think they should be students like you. Therefore, our main target will be concentrated in schools. How about this? Tomorrow morning, the three of you will go around these schools in the city to see if you can find any magical girls. After all, generally speaking, the QB is either next to a magical girl, or should be looking for someone to be a magical girl..."

Having said this, Fang Zheng paused.

"But you have to be careful. I suspect this QB might be problematic. So after you find the QB, don't rush to contact it. Instead, notify others immediately... Nanoha, Fate!"

"exist!"

"Tomorrow you will be on standby at the highest point of this city. Once you receive a distress signal, set off immediately."

"yes."

"Okay, now you can go and rest."

After deciding on the battle plan for tomorrow, Fang Zheng clapped his hands, and the girls dispersed to rest. As for Fang Zheng, he walked to the gate of the old factory and looked outside. Soon, he saw a dark figure flashing through the alley next to him, and then quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Although he didn't see her face, Fang Zheng was certain that the figure was the first magical girl he and his companions had met when they came to this world.

Judging from her appearance, she seems to have some extra attention to me and others...

Looking at the night sky in the distance and the flickering lights, Fang Zheng was silent for a moment and then closed the door.

No matter what, we will meet when the time comes.

That night, everything was normal.

When everyone woke up from their sleep again, there was no situation similar to last night. Therefore, after washing their faces, brushing their teeth and eating breakfast, the girls immediately set off and headed towards their respective goals according to Fang Zheng's instructions.

"This is Mitakihara Middle School."

Hiding in the bushes not far away, Illya also looked out cautiously. This time she was smart. Illya knew very well that even if she materialized a uniform, she would still be caught and investigated by the police. After all, in a place like Japan, different schools have fixed uniforms. If a person wearing a different uniform appeared among so many people wearing the same uniform, it would definitely be very conspicuous.

But Illya has her own way.

She quietly took out her staff, then pulled out the "ASSASSIN" card from under her skirt, tapped it lightly, and whispered.

"ASSASSIN, dream summon!"

Following Illya's whispered call, the next moment a pink magic glow enveloped the girl's body, and then it shattered with a "snap". Then, the originally pink magic girl's costume turned into a completely different outfit.

On the side of Illya's head, she was wearing a skull mask that looked like a mask bought at a temple fair, and her whole body was wrapped in a dark, tattered cloak. Not only that, behind Illya, she was carrying a big sword that was taller than herself.

"Wow... this doesn't look like an ASSASSIN at all."

Looking at the black armor on her body and the big sword behind her, Illya couldn't help but complain.

Fortunately, ASSASSIN still has the breath concealing skill, so no matter how much Illya complained, after transforming into ASSASSIN, she quickly jumped and ran towards the campus.

As the bell rang, the originally bustling teaching building suddenly became much quieter.

"How interesting..."

Walking in the empty corridor, Illya looked at the classrooms here and there, feeling a sense of comfort and freedom. You know, she is a really good student, the kind who is never late or leave early and rarely asks for leave. Illya has never been so free and unrestrained as to wander around outside during class time.

But now, not only can she do this, but she is not afraid of being discovered... This is really cool.

"Woooooa ...

However, just as Illya was happily running up the stairs, a dark figure suddenly appeared beside her, scaring Illya so much that she screamed. But when she looked closely, she found a girl with long straight black hair carrying a schoolbag, turning around the corner as if no one was around, and walking towards the classroom not far away.

Is this late?

But then again, why do I feel like I've seen this girl somewhere before?

Out of curiosity, Illya followed the girl with long black hair all the way and walked forward. Then she stopped at the door of a class, and after a while, a voice came from inside.

"Xiaomei, please come in."

Hearing the teacher's words, the girl with long black hair walked straight into the classroom. She stood in front with an expressionless face, and then introduced herself in a low voice.

"My name is Homura Akemi, please give me your guidance."

I don’t know if it was because her aura was too cold or for some other reason, but it took a long time before awkward applause was heard in the classroom.

"So her name is Homura Akemi... What an interesting name, it sounds very exciting and cool."

Hearing this, Illya couldn't help but sigh. At this moment, she suddenly realized that for some reason, the girl named Akemi Homura suddenly turned her eyes in her direction.

Eh? Wait, I shouldn't be discovered, my breath concealment is A!

Frightened by Homura Akemi's gaze, Illya quickly shrank her body and subconsciously hid aside. Then she looked up again curiously, only to see that the girl's eyes just swept towards the door twice, and then retracted their eyes again.

"Phew... I'm so scared. Looks like I've been discovered..."

Watching the girl with long black hair walk to her seat, Illya patted her chest and then cheered herself up again.

"Keep going, the mission is not yet completed!"

And just like that, a day passed.

By the time the sun set, Illya still hadn't found any clues. Not to mention any strange animals, she hadn't even seen a magical girl.

"Wow...it seems there is nothing here..."

Standing on the rooftop of the school building that had long been empty, looking at the square below, Illya sighed.

"Why not contact them and see who else..."

"Didi!!"

However, at this moment, suddenly, the contact sound of the personal terminal rang, and then Xiao Hei's voice appeared in Illya's ears.

"This is Xiao Hei, I've found that strange animal! Come and meet up, the location is an abandoned underground tunnel in the shopping street! That thing is being chased! It looks like someone is planning to kill it!"

"Why?"

Hearing this, Illya was also shocked.

"I'll be there soon!"
