Starting as a Magical Girl, I Alone Shall Rule for Eternity Chapter 61
When the bright sound of a suona horn blared, Susan almost thought she was about to be sent off to her funeral.
Outside the Disaster Control Bureau building were two huge red banners:
"Wholeheartedly protecting the safety of BH City citizens!"
"Enduring humiliation to resist external evil organizations!"
A bunch of Bureau employees were gathering there making noise, cheering loudly.
This Iris had even spent money to rent a train, carrying the suona team around the Disaster Control Bureau building while holding a megaphone and playing her pre-recorded thank you speech.
"All Beihai Disaster Control Bureau employees, you've truly worked hard! Facing two major terrorist forces - the Witch Association and the Azure Cloud Sect - you still maintained your integrity, protected Beihai, and didn't let Beihai fall. As the strongest Magical Girl in the Disaster Control Bureau, I, Iris, am truly filled with admiration!"
"So please accept this small gift as a token of my respect! To commemorate your hard work and sacrifices during these three years of protecting Beihai!"
Is this not disturbing the public? I'd like to ask.
Originally, she was supposed to go to the Azure Cloud Sect for an assessment to join the inner sect these past few days.
But one thing after another kept happening, leaving no time to go, constantly postponing it.
The inner sect's salary is really high, and she could also see Shion and Lady Bingtang.
She heard there's specialized guidance on how to advance, but given her status as a new inner sect member, she'd probably only be taught by true disciples. Having Shion and Bingtang teach her would be too much to ask for...
"All Beihai employees, you've truly worked hard! Facing the Witch Association and the Azure Cloud Sect..."
Susan finally couldn't take it anymore, directly opened the window, and looked at Iris outside holding the megaphone on infinite loop, "Haven't you had enough yet!"
"Smack!"
A red envelope was precisely thrown through the window.
Susan froze for a moment, picked up the red envelope and opened it.
Holy crap, five thousand yuan.
"Your voice is so quiet, is your battery dead?" Susan muttered, "You can make it louder, everyone loves hearing it."
The cyan Magical Girl standing on the train carriage, already transformed, gave her a brilliant smile and waved, "Thank you for your efforts and contributions over these three years!"
This Iris person, although showy and arrogant, you have to admit - generous is truly generous, her personality is cheerful, and when she spends money lavishly, she also looks really beautiful.
By the way, because she gave Peony paid leave, Peony hasn't come to work until today.
Iris even paid Peony's salary in advance.
Of course, it's also because Peony's job at the Bureau is dealing with Disaster Beasts, and now that Iris wants to give her paid leave to handle Disaster Beasts herself, naturally she doesn't need to come.
As for Susan, even if Iris gave her a promise, she couldn't really take paid leave.
After all, she's from the security department, and she handles most of the Bureau's defense work.
Now that they've captured a witch, there are even more troublesome matters.
Lady Bingtang also has new tasks...
But after receiving five thousand yuan, Susan didn't feel so burdened anymore, feeling refreshed as she put on headphones and turned up the volume.
After blocking out all the noise, she finished reviewing yesterday's piled-up documents, then tidied her desk and headed to the second floor.
The place where Twins was detained was also quite simple - it was the same room where she had previously interrogated Jiang Si.
They said they were going to conduct a witch trial, but actually the Beihai Disaster Control Bureau doesn't even have a witch trial court.
When Li Yi returned and found out about this, she was dumbfounded.
She had always thought the Beihai Bureau had a trial court, so her mind was full of capturing Witch Association members to put them on trial.
Actually, the witch trial court only existed for half a year. Because of the Azure Cloud Sect's activity, they didn't capture a single live witch during that half year.
The former bureau chief waved his hand and had the trial court dismantled.
After all, maintenance costs money.
It turned out the bureau chief was indeed correct - in three years, they never once used the trial court.
Twins was the first live witch they captured.
But actually, she's a disciple of our Azure Cloud Sect...
Just thinking about it made Susan feel somewhat unable to hold back her emotions.
After entering the interrogation room and closing the door, sealing everything as usual, Susan remembered she had previously interrogated the Sect Master here too, and felt some emotions about the passage of time.
In three years, the interrogation room had only interrogated two people - one was the Azure Cloud Sect Master, and the other was an Azure Cloud Sect spy in the Witch Association...
"I'm Susan, head of security at the Beihai Disaster Control Bureau..."
"I know, I know, Yinluo talks about you with me every day. After having your Miracle Seed destroyed, you still managed to work strongly at the Disaster Control Bureau. But she said your expression when your seed was contaminated and you couldn't transform was particularly interesting."
Twins was casually restrained all over, basically unable to move, but her mouth was as fast as ever, "So desperate and disbelieving, clearly a Magical Girl but acting like a helpless child. Later you even secretly cried at the Bureau, and when Peony found you, you pretended nothing was wrong - it was just too delicious..."
"She sure knows how to enjoy it."
Susan looked at her expressionlessly, "I don't remember her being around at that time?"
"She was your fan back then, followed you many times, knew your movements inside out. Of course she wouldn't let you discover her. Every time she chatted with me, she'd talk about you endlessly..."
"You're really proud of yourself, aren't you."
"After all, I had some credit in it too." Twins giggled, "You're not angry, are you? Sister Susan, I was the one who led Yinluo into the Witch Association, and I was the one who taught her the method to contaminate seeds, making you unable to continue being a Magical Girl. Oh dear, what a pity, when you were such an excellent Magical Girl."
Taking a breath, Susan looked at her coldly, "Do you know your current situation? Being so unrestrained with your words."
"Anyway, you don't dare kill me. As a Witch Association member, being able to destroy a Disaster Control Bureau Magical Girl is a huge victory for me, so naturally I feel accomplished. Hehe, although you can't kill me, you can hit me to vent your anger. Let me see an official Magical Girl throwing a tantrum!"
Although she did like Lady Bingtang and really wanted to become an Azure Cloud Sect disciple, Twins had never held any goodwill toward the Disaster Control Bureau.
Anyway, there was no possibility of her escaping, so when she had the chance to annoy the other party, she would naturally annoy them fiercely - at least she wouldn't lose out.
If she didn't act arrogant and provocative now, Twins might never get another chance in her lifetime.
"Heaven and Earth are not humane." However, Susan just said flatly.
Twins' smile froze on her face.
"Ah?" Her tone also became somewhat strained, "Treating all things as straw dogs?"
Susan finally smiled slightly, "As fellow Azure Cloud Sect disciples, you've really made me suffer terribly."
The interrogation room fell quiet for a while.
"All Beihai Disaster Control Bureau employees, you've truly worked hard! Facing the Witch Association and the Azure Cloud Sect..."
Iris had circled around to this side.
Twins nearly fell off her chair with a smack, then her eyes began to dart around, trying hard to maintain composure: "Um, actually, actually it has nothing to do with me. Even if I hadn't brought Yinluo into the Witch Association, the captain would have found her. The method to contaminate seeds is known by every Witch Association member, it's not any secret. I absolutely, absolutely didn't play any key role..."
Susan didn't speak either, just quietly watched her.
Before long, Twins couldn't take it anymore, directly moved and fell off the chair, writhing on the ground like a worm, kowtowing with "thump thump thump" sounds, "I was wrong, I was wrong! Your Excellency Susan, please don't hold it against someone as insignificant as me, please absolutely don't tell Lady Bingtang and Lady Shion, I'll really die! Whatever request you have, I'll do anything you ask, Twins will definitely serve you like an ox or horse..."
"It's nothing. If it weren't for you and Yinluo making me unable to transform back then, I wouldn't have had to join the Azure Cloud Sect and find my own purpose."
Susan walked up to Twins, "Get up."
Twins squirmed and stood up with Susan's help, her forehead somewhat red with some dirt on it, wearing a somewhat ingratiating smile, "Your Excellency Susan, you can just say whatever you need directly, no need to be polite with me..."
Before she could finish speaking, Susan punched Twins in the abdomen.
Although not very hard, Twins still curled up in pain, drool involuntarily leaking from the corner of her mouth.
"Although I can't blame you entirely, and I'm not angry anymore, just letting it go like this doesn't seem quite appropriate."
Really not angry anymore?
Twins carefully looked up at Susan's expression.
Clearly, super angry...
Twins is done for.
Damn mouth, why did you have to say so much nonsense...
Just as she felt like crying but had no tears, Susan pulled her and pressed her back into the chair.
"Currently we need to know how many Miracle Seeds the Witch Association stole, and where we can get them back."
"Only, only one, with the captain. When Yinluo got them, there were two."
"Then it seems the last one really is in Li Yi's hands." Susan rubbed her chin, somewhat surprised, "When did she take it? Never mind, regardless, Lady Bingtang needs you to help us obtain these two Miracle Seeds."
Twins nodded repeatedly, then asked quietly, "Lady Bingtang... really trusts me this much?"
"What foolish talk is this? All the hardships you've endured as a spy in the Witch Association over the years, Lady Bingtang remembers them all in her heart. With all the intelligence you've provided to the Azure Cloud Sect over the years, how could Lady Bingtang not trust you."
Hearing Susan's words, Twins' eyes widened.
Spy? Me? Me?
Although Twins did send a lot of intelligence to the Azure Cloud Sect, although Twins really didn't do much evil in the Witch Association these past few years, even sabotaging many of the Witch Association's evil plans.
But these past few years, Twins had actually been seriously being a witch.
At this point, the fact that she had actually fled back to the Witch Association because she was afraid of being exposed and purged by the Sect Master was something she couldn't bring herself to say aloud...
"Lady Bingtang has always been worried about you." Susan said finally, "Lady Bingtang said that if it really becomes too much to bear, just return to the Azure Cloud Sect early. She'll always be waiting for you."
She watched as Twins suddenly started giggling foolishly, laughing somewhat disgustingly, so she pinched her face, "Are you even listening to me?"
"I heard, I heard! Twins isn't suffering at all, Twins will definitely complete the mission and not disappoint Lady Bingtang!"
"Hmph, you'd better be able to bring back the Miracle Seeds."
After roughly arranging the work, Susan opened the door preparing to leave.
A bright suona sound made Susan stumble.
"So please accept this small gift as a token of my respect! To commemorate your hard work and sacrifices during these three years of protecting Beihai!"
Iris's megaphone once again filled the entire interrogation room.
Seeing Susan about to close the door, Twins shook in her chair, shouting, "How long is she going to keep shouting! Twins' ears are going to break!"
"Who knows? Until she's satisfied, I guess."
Anyway, she keeps giving out red envelopes, so nobody minds.
"Your Excellency Susan, I'm not going to have to listen to this in the interrogation room all day, am I?"
"Your Excellency Susan, save me!"
Susan ignored her shouts and closed the door.
As for the fact that she had actually recovered her transformation ability, she certainly didn't plan to confess that.
Only this way could she keep this troublesome girl in check later - otherwise, with this personality, she'd be too prone to getting arrogant.
Glancing back at Twins causing a ruckus in the interrogation room, she snorted coldly.
Consider yourself lucky with just this much punishment.
......
Jiang Si looked at the girl before him with tightly closed eyes.
He always felt somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember.
Snow-white hair, sickly pale skin with even some translucency to it. Although still young, her facial features were quite exquisite.
Of course, the Azure Cloud Sect never lacked pretty girls. Not to mention Bingtang who was stunning at first sight - if Yumo weren't so introverted and easily shy, she'd be the type with many pursuers at school too.
Actually, Qinghua's foundation isn't bad either, mainly her personality makes her seem silly. No matter how Jiang Si looked at her, she seemed foolish, so he didn't find her particularly beautiful.
Even children like Four Leaf and Six Leaf were clearly going to grow into pretty girls.
So the most special thing about this white-haired girl before him wasn't that she was good-looking, but her sickly temperament.
Within that fragile weakness that seemed like she'd collapse with a gust of wind, there was also a sharp, piercing edge.
It even made Jiang Si sense a hint of danger.
This one is not weak.
The biggest question was, why was she near the Azure Cloud Sect?
The location of the Azure Cloud Sect headquarters was only known to true disciples and Bingtang - their secrecy measures had always been excellent.
If exposed, it would be very troublesome.
But more than that, the dangerous aura she faintly emitted made Jiang Si's hands itch.
Just from her stance, you could tell she was incredibly strong.
But he also felt somewhat hesitant because she looked really weak. Although she had an aura of strength about her, she probably couldn't withstand even one hit from him.
If he accidentally hit her, she might die on the spot.
"What are you doing here?"
It turned out the other party spoke first, her tone indeed very sharp.
Completely different from her fragile appearance, like a sword ready to be drawn at any moment.
"That's what I want to ask."
Jiang Si looked at her with interest, "Who are you?"
The other party's hostility rapidly increased, actually carrying some oppressive feeling.
Although he couldn't proactively attack, letting the other party make the first move to gauge her strength wasn't a problem for Jiang Si.
The somewhat transparent white girl gripped her cane - she had closed eyes, so naturally she needed the cane to feel her way, but now she put away the cane, placing it at her waist.
Actually faintly emitting sword energy.
Jiang Si's eyes lit up - in this world, besides himself, was there actually someone else exploring the Great Dao through physical cultivation?
"Leave this place."
Hearing the other party's warning, Jiang Si advanced instead of retreating, step by step approaching the blind girl.
"What if I don't?"
A sharp aura suddenly locked onto him. Jiang Si had the feeling of being aimed at by a gun.
What sharp sword intent! What fierce energy!
The heroes of this world are truly as numerous as fish in a river!
The blind girl slowly drew her cane, like a peerless treasured sword slashing forth!
Jiang Si didn't avoid it at all, twisting his waist, turning his body, lifting his leg - a simple yet fierce high whip kick!
The cane and whip kick collided, yet it sounded like a treasured sword clashing with an axe!
When Jiang Si withdrew his leg, half of the broken cane flew out and embedded itself in the muddy ground nearby, like a broken sword.
However, despite such tremendous force, the girl still tightly gripped the other half of the cane, not letting go at all.
And Jiang Si wasn't completely unscathed either - a few strands of hair he hadn't combed down in the morning were blown to the ground.
Praising in his heart, Jiang Si just said loudly, "Again!"
But he saw the blind girl shake her head, "I only know this one move."
Jiang Si froze for a moment, before he could even feel disappointed, he saw the girl say softly and weakly, "But it's okay, I still have one final move."
After speaking, she pulled out a handgun from her bosom and aimed it at Jiang Si.
