Chapter 78 Delphinium and Sparrow
Is she a magical girl?
After seeing the figure outside the window, Lin Yun immediately had this thought. After all, only magical girls can fly in the air and wear such fancy clothes.
It's not that a magician can't imitate a similar dressing style, but unfortunately, a magician with the total amount of magic power and proficiency in techniques that can support them to float steadily in the air is most likely past the age of "girl".
So, why is there a magical girl there at this time?
Lin Yun was not familiar with the face of the girl in the black dress. He was sure that she was not any of his "old acquaintances". She should not be a newcomer to Fangting City, otherwise, there was no reason for Lin Yun not to know her.
Is she a magical girl from outside?
Many questions emerged in his mind, and then Lin Yun began to think about his next move.
Should I transform into a magical girl and ask her what she wants to do? Or should I just ignore her and let her go?
It is obviously not feasible to transform directly now.
Right now, I am in the general manager's office. If I transform, I will definitely be seen by Wang Tengfei, who is an ordinary person, which is an unnecessary leakage of information.
Although he could ask the Strategy Bureau to deal with the aftermath, sign a confidentiality agreement, or even use a certain degree of psychological suggestion to stop him from thinking about it, he still hoped to avoid transforming in front of others as much as possible.
It was also impossible to turn a blind eye, because he could not allow a magical girl whose origins were unknown and who he did not even know whether she was an enemy or a friend to move around freely in Fangting City.
In short, if nothing else, at least I can't continue wasting time in the general manager's office.
So he opened his mouth, preparing to end the conversation with Wang Tengfei: "Mr. Wang, I'm sorry, I have something else to do next, so I won't waste your time. Next..."
Once again, Lin Yun's pupils suddenly contracted when he was halfway through his words.
He saw the girl in the sky, her long hair dancing in the wind, her black dress coated with a layer of golden glow in the sunlight.
He saw that a yellowish-brown magical light was lit up in the girl's hand, pointing straight in the direction of the office building.
At this point, he could finally be sure that the person coming had bad intentions.
"Mr. Wang."
Lin Yun stopped talking nonsense, stood up suddenly, and reminded Wang Tengfei very seriously: "Lie down."
This sentence was said too suddenly, so Wang Tengfei couldn't understand what he meant.
He was destined to have no time to understand, because when he saw Lin Yun stand up, he didn't say another word, but ran towards the direction where there should have been only a floor-to-ceiling window behind him.
Then, a flash of azure light appeared at his side, and a moment later, a muffled sound of glass breaking was heard behind him.
The next second, a strong vibration came from outside the window, like an earthquake, making everyone in the entire office building feel an extremely strong shaking.
"Ah? Missed the target?"
Not far away, a girl in a black dress looked at the office building with a big hole on the edge and said, "Strange, I should have aimed right?"
"Forget it, if you missed, just shoot again."
——"No matter how many times you try, you won't be able to hit it."
Such a sound suddenly came from not far away.
The girl looked in the direction of the voice and saw a petite girl in a navy blue dress floating in the air like her, with a cold expression on her face.
Seeing the other person, the girl was a little stunned at first, but then the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a somewhat inexplicable smile: "Ah, you are here after all?"
"'It's here'? Are you here to see me?"
The Delphinium opposite her opened her hand, and magic power condensed into a wand in her hand: "It is not polite to greet with a bombardment spell. You have one minute. First explain why you came here, and then explain your purpose."
"Oh, sorry, I really should have introduced myself first."
As if she really felt sorry for this "disrespect", the girl bowed and said, "Hello, I am a magical girl with a card who used to be in the Magic Kingdom. I was affiliated with the Finance Department. I worked there about fourteen years ago, and my code name was 'Golden Bell'."
"However, this is a name from the past. Now, you can call me 'Sparrow'."
"If you don't understand what this code name means, please allow me to introduce us to you. We are a group of magical girls who have truly gained freedom. We are 'Claw Mark'."
"Are you satisfied with my self-introduction? At this point, the girl who called herself "Sparrow" raised her head, and the smile on her face gradually became a little more ostentatious: "——Are you also the former Hanakari, Cornflower-sama?"
Almost at the same time as she said this, without any warning, an extremely strong beam of magic power shot out from her palm and shot straight in the direction of Delphinium.
Not far away, Delphinium, who was still shocked by her words, reacted quickly. She widened her eyes, raised her hand, and surrounded by several Favor runes. A simple magic barrier was formed instantly, which blocked the sudden attack of the girl who called herself "Sparrow" in time.
"It seems that you know a lot."
The barrier blocked the magic beam, and for a moment they were in a stalemate over the magic strength. Jade Bird looked up at Sparrow with an increasingly cold expression, "You knew it was me, but you still dared to come to Fangting City to provoke me? Or did you think you could launch a successful sneak attack by giving a discarded name? Are all the people in your organization called Claw Mark fools like you who are brave but reckless?"
Her words made the smile on Sparrow's face pause slightly, and his eyebrows jumped, seeming to be very unhappy, but such emotions were quickly covered up, and only a bright smile remained: "Ah, of course not."
"You may be just a former Hana-karuta, but you were once a Hana-karuta after all. I don't expect to easily kill you with a simple sneak attack. Old women like you still have some real skills no matter what."
"But what if I say that this is what I rely on?"
As she said this, the magic beam, which was originally khaki in color, was suddenly enveloped by a purple-black magic power.
And when the purple-black magic power came into contact with the magic barrier of the Delphinium, the barrier that had been standing still suddenly seemed to have aged, becoming extremely shallow and fragile, and then spider-web-like cracks appeared.
The process was so short that Delphinium had no time to make any compensation. The barrier shattered and suddenly exploded in her sight.
Boom! There was no more obstruction in the path ahead of the beam, and it blew up the magic barrier, completely covering its original location, and went straight through the Delphinium.
