“It’s all part of the plan.”
"Plan? What plan?" Jinju looked puzzled.
"Just wait and see."
"Where's the rabbit?"
"They will come, but the time is uncertain."
Jinju hated the Riddler the most, and under her torture, Qingning finally told her what happened.
Yesterday, the magical girls studied the law enforcement recorder together and went to the scene of the accident.
Perhaps it was because too much time had passed and all traces of the magic had disappeared, and they still could not find any clues.
They could only start with the magician and his criminal gang.
So, they went to the police during the day to find out about this criminal organization.
They learned that the perpetrators of this gang were repeat offenders, and their targets were often evasive girls and lone homeless people on the street.
According to police estimates, nearly half of the city's missing persons cases that were not caused by disaster beasts were caused by this criminal gang.
Although the police have been trying to catch these criminals, the other side has very good information and every attack on their strongholds has been in vain.
The people who were occasionally caught were often thugs and minions who carried out kidnappings from the periphery and had no idea of the internal situation of the organization.
The police speculated that the organization's personnel composition was very large and complex, and even suspected that there were undercover agents within the police force.
The confrontation between them has been going on for a long time, and the police are overwhelmed by the affairs of this criminal group. The magical girls happened to intervene because of Liu Huang's incident, which made the police overjoyed.
"Is this the plan you discussed today?" Jinju asked.
Because he had spent a lot of time with Tang Feng from last night until now, Jinju felt as if he was out of touch with the magical girls and knew nothing about their actions.
She couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
This guy is really harmful.
"Yeah." Qing Ning said, her pretty face wrinkled slightly, and she put on a mad expression, "Why me again, again, again? You guys are all sleeping at home, and I'm the only one squatting on the street!"
"Just you?" Jinju asked doubtfully.
She had already guessed the magical girls' plan.
Since she knew that the criminal group often targeted the savior girls and the homeless, the magical girl prepared to release the corresponding bait to lure them into the trap.
A lone girl appeared on the street late at night. Isn't that a naked target? If you want to be a bait, you have to cast a wide net to have a higher chance of success. Almost all the magical girls meet the requirements, but in the end, only Qing Ning is here as bait.
Jinju asked with confusion on her face.
Qing Ning got even angrier after hearing this. "Chi Yan is the daughter of the sheriff. She might know her original criminal organization. Shui Lan is not able to show up due to work reasons. Sheng... Bai Xue is the daughter of a chaebol. She has appeared on TV before. Feng Ye and Jin Cheng are not suitable for this job, so!"
She was about to say, "I'm the only one left!", when she suddenly realized that there seemed to be another person in front of her...
“Jinju!” Qingning grabbed Jinju’s arm tightly as if she had found a savior, “You will stay with me, right?!”
"Ahem..." Jinju pulled his hand back calmly, "Everyone will remember your sacrifice."
"Wow, you are all bullies!"
"You are so well developed and so cute, you are very suitable for helping... No, anyway, those criminals are easy to take the bait, come on!"
Jinju knew that Tang Feng would be dissatisfied if she didn't go back, so she pinched Qingning's cute face and then ruthlessly got rid of her.
Jinju flew back home quickly. She didn't go through the front door, but flew in through the window.
Since Tang Feng came, she also started going in and out through the window...
After returning to the room, she saw that Tang Feng was still inside.
"Are you going to stay here tonight?"
Jinju was a little worried. If it happened again like last night, she might have to spend the whole weekend in bed.
Tang Feng glanced at her sideways while lying on the bed, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised, "You are allowed to rest tonight."
Jinju breathed a sigh of relief, but for some reason, there was a faint sense of loss deep in her heart.
She told Tang Feng everything she had learned about Aster from the Magical Girls Association.
After listening to this, Tang Feng nodded slightly.
The next moment, Jinju found herself floating onto the bed involuntarily.
Tang Feng had already put one hand around her, looking very happy. "As a reward, how about letting you come three times?"
"Hey, didn't you say we would take a rest tonight?" Jinju's face fell.
"Don't you want to? But your body disagrees with you."
As Tang Feng spoke, his hands began to move. A large area of Jinju's combat uniform had been corroded, and the warm and snowy skin was exposed to the air.
Tang Feng covered the snow.
After a moment, the sound of beautiful music that was suppressed was heard in the room.
.
Although it was Saturday, Ziyuan got up early as usual. After washing up, there was a knock on the door.
Aster didn't open the door. She came to the door and looked outside vigilantly.
Only after she saw it was Tang Feng did she open the door.
"Teacher Tang Feng, why are you here?"
"As a teacher, it's only natural for you to care about your students' lives, right?"
Tang Feng came in with two breakfasts and handed one to Ziyuan, "You haven't had breakfast yet?"
Ziyuan didn't hesitate to say thank you and started to eat breakfast with Tang Feng.
After taking a sip of the tofu brain which was neither sweet nor salty, Tang Feng said, "It's time to rest today. Do you have any plans?"
Aster shook her head. Weekends were no different to her than weekdays, except that she didn't have to go to school.
She would just go out to buy groceries, cook, study, and practice magic as usual, living an unchanging life.
She didn't think this kind of life was monotonous and boring. After her parents passed away, she had no other pursuits and only wanted to eliminate all the disasters and monsters in the world.
"Let's go out and play today." Tang Feng finished the last bite of noodles and put down the disposable chopsticks.
"Play?"
This word caused a hint of confusion in Ziyuan's eyes.
“Just take a stroll and go to the most prosperous neighborhood on the waterfront to see how crowded it is on weekends.”
Tang Feng tapped the disposable chopsticks in his hand and criticized, "You can't stay at home like this all the time. You need to interact with more people, including at school. Don't you find that you are a little withdrawn now?"
Aster thought for a moment and said, "I'm sorry."
"Not going?"
"No, it's because I'm a loner and the teacher hates me. I'm sorry."
"I don't hate you, I just don't want you to be alone forever." Tang Feng said, and then changed the subject, "How did it feel to fight the disaster beasts with the magic girls before?"
Aster nodded gently, "I'm very happy. They are all fine."
"Do you want to have friends like that?"
"I do." Ziyuan said without much hesitation.
"Then you have to work hard. Even if you don't want to become a magical girl, at least you have to change this personality. No one would like a loner as a good friend, right?"
Aster nodded again, her words as brief as her actions.
"good."
"Then wait until you finish eating, and then we'll set off."
Ziyuan hummed softly and continued to eat her breakfast. When she was almost finished, she placed the two buns on an empty plate, one on the left and one on the right.
Then she closed her eyes and clasped her hands together.
"Mom and Dad, I'm going out to play with the teacher. Please take care of yourselves at home."
Tang Feng glanced sideways, "Are they really here?"
Aster nodded gently, "Although I can't see them, I can feel that they are by my side."
“Feelings often don’t count.”
"This is true." Ziyuan suddenly revealed a mysterious smile and spoke quietly.
"There have been times when I've put food on a plate like this and looked back a little later and they've finished the food on the plate."
Tang Feng naturally didn't believe what Ziyuan said.
Maybe it's just because the poor girl has schizophrenia, so it's not surprising that another personality ate the food.
He stood up and said, "Let's go then."
"Didn't I say it? It's the most prosperous and lively place in Binhai City."
Marina Commercial Plaza.
The square is located in a bustling commercial center, surrounded by high-rise buildings and a well-greened city park.
The two stood at the entrance of the square, feeling somewhat shocked by the surging flow of people.
“A lot of people.”
It was rare for Ziyuan to speak actively, her eyes wandering over all kinds of passers-by.
Most of them are young men and women, in pairs, or groups of three or five girls, as well as some urban beauties and middle-aged women who are addicted to shopping.
"Where are we going?" Ziyuan faced the crowd, a little confused.
"Come with me."
Tang Feng led Ziyuan into the shopping mall next to the square.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
The shopping mall has five floors, and the interior is spacious and well-organized, enough to accommodate a large number of people.
The two stopped in front of a women's clothing store.
Tang Feng looked at Ziyuan's black school uniform that was almost faded from washing and took her into the clothing store.
Even when going out on weekends, Aster wears this black school uniform.
The school uniforms of Magical Girls Academy are of very good quality and are beautifully designed, looking very suitable for young girls.
Perhaps this school uniform is the only clothing she can afford.
Seeing a new customer coming in, the shopping guide of the clothing store immediately came over to greet them, and when she saw the two people in front of her, her eyes lit up.
She has been in this business for a long time, but this is the first time she has seen such handsome men and beautiful women.
Although the girl is not dressed up, her natural and pure appearance with a hint of girlish innocence is enough to make any man's heart beat.
But this did not attract the attention of the female shopping guide, as her eyes were already fixed on Tang Feng.
What a stunning appearance! How could there be such a perfect man in the world! The salesgirl was stunned at this moment. She seemed to have returned to her school days, as if she was feeling the throbbing of her first love.
The high nose bridge, angular face and sexy Adam's apple all attracted her deeply.
In addition, he exudes mature masculine charm, which makes him even more attractive to women of her age.
At this moment, she was already imagining in her mind the scenario of keeping the other person as a gigolo.
"Um, is there any style here that would be suitable for this girl?"
This was the second time Tang Feng asked the question.
The first time, the shopping guide unconsciously ignored it.
He was a little speechless. Although he knew that he had a good-looking appearance, he was not a walking human succubus, and the girls in the school were not to the point of getting aroused as soon as they saw him.
"Oh, sorry."
The salesgirl, who was nearly 30 years old, finally came to her senses. She blushed at her own gaffe and quickly changed the subject to business.
"Yes, yes. For a beautiful girl like this, anything she wears will suit her well."
She went aside to choose clothes, but she was still secretly watching Tang Feng and the others out of the corner of her eye.
The shopping guide was wondering what the relationship between the two people was.
In this line of work, you can't use random names. The consequence of making a mistake is losing a customer at best, or causing a dispute at worst.
The girl was clearly wearing a school uniform, and the young man...
It's impossible for them to be father and daughter, but there's a certain probability that they're lovers, and there's also a high possibility that they're siblings.
To be on the safe side, she took the selected clothes and asked Xiang Ziyuan directly, "What color and style do you like, little sister?"
Ziyuan looked at the white dress and light pink outerwear in the other person's hands without saying anything.
Tang Feng took a glance and said calmly, "Try a black or purple one."
Upon hearing this, the shopping guide turned to a shelf and took down a dark purple Lolita skirt for display.
"How about trying this?" The salesperson picked up the skirt and unfolded it.
Tang Feng nodded and said to Ziyuan, "Let's give it a try."
Aster entered the fitting room.
After a while, Aster, who had changed her clothes, came out.
The exquisite and complicated Lolita skirt made Ziyuan, who usually didn't dress up, seem like a different person. The dark purple color made her even more mysterious. The girl's long black hair was lightly draped behind her, and her deep eyes were staring at Tang Feng intently.
The shopping guide's eyes lit up and he gave a heartfelt compliment.
"This dress is really suitable for your sister. Please buy it. I can help you apply for the highest discount."
Tang Feng was also quite satisfied when he saw Ziyuan's outfit.
I wonder what she will look like after becoming a magical girl, but this outfit seems to give her some sense of that.
"I want this set." Tang Feng said, "But she is not my sister."
"Oh, I'm so sorry."
The shopping guide quickly apologized, fearing that this small mistake would lead to the failure of the order.
"Get another casual dress for everyday use."
When Ziyuan was about to enter the fitting room again with the clothes selected by the shopping guide, Tang Feng suddenly remembered something and turned to ask the shopping guide.
"By the way, do you have any black silk of better quality?"
The shopping guide opened her eyes wide when she heard this.
It turned out to be the relationship she had guessed!
The look in her eyes when she looked at Tang Feng changed. For a moment, she didn't know whether she should envy this girl or Tang Feng.
"If only I were a few years younger," the salesperson muttered to herself.
She chose a pair of black stockings, handed it to Tang Feng with a meaningful look on her face, and whispered, "How about this one? It's a sexy lace style, the material and feel are both top-notch."
"That's it."
However, Tang Feng did not let Ziyuan change it now, but asked the shopping guide to put it on, and then picked out an ordinary black stocking that was not sexy.
Aster didn't say anything during this time. She went into the fitting room with her newly acquired stockings.
When she came out, her temperament had changed again.
The black slim-fit shirt and the black casual miniskirt, with white arms and thighs sticking out from it, create a sharp contrast and provide an extremely strong visual stimulation.
Especially the slender legs wrapped in transparent stockings, with a faint flesh color showing through, making the girl look even more charming.
The shopping guide's jaw dropped to the ground.
This is completely different from the innocent girl wearing a Lolita skirt just now.
"Sir..." Her voice trembled a little, "We have a lot of clothing styles in this store. Can your girlfriend try them all?"
"No, just these two sets." Tang Feng came to the counter and prepared to pay.
"And she's not my girlfriend." He suddenly said to the salesperson.
Ignoring the shopping guide who was brainstorming, Tang Feng paid for two sets of clothes and stockings.
Although it was a considerable sum of money, especially the Lolita dress, which was a bit outrageously expensive, money meant nothing to Tang Feng.
He took Aster and left the clothing store.
"Tang Feng."
Ziyuan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
"Not a sister, not a girlfriend, what do you take me for? And why are you so nice to me?"
"If I say, fulfilling my duties as a teacher, would you believe me?"
"I'm not a child anymore." Ziyuan obviously didn't believe it.
She looked down at her beautiful black dress and slightly sexy black stockings, was silent for a moment, and spoke lightly.
"If you are after this body, there is no need to go through so much trouble. You look very much like my aesthetic, and I won't resist too much."
Tang Feng smiled nonchalantly, "How could I use such a superficial reason?"
Aster lowered her eyes slightly, "If not, then I can't understand why someone would suddenly be so nice to me."
"My mother once told me that, apart from your parents, no one else will be nice to you without any purpose. They all have a purpose."
Tang Feng pondered for a while, "Then... do you need a father now?"
