Magical Girl's Knight Brother

Chapter 103 Mr. Qingnang (1200020000)

Thanks to the powerful force of the reversed world, in fact, the moment the call was connected, Tang Zijun was able to use Qin Nan's voice to find the person on the other end of the phone.

Just like electronic signals can transmit human voices, Tang Zijun can also use his extraordinary hearing and the fact that there is no distance limit in the reversed world to see what the other person looks like from the reflective mobile phone screen.

For Qin Nan and the strange woman, they were having a voice call, but for Tang Zijun, as long as he wanted, the voice call could be transformed into a one-way video call at any time.

If he wanted, he could even use the bathroom mirror to go to the other person and communicate with the magical girl face to face.

However, Tang Zijun did not choose to do so.

After all, the two parties have had little contact, and this is the first time they have spoken on the phone. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, it is better to respect the privacy of these magical girls.

And the most important thing is that whether it is the reversed world or the mirror plane, this kind of power is extremely evil in the eyes of magical girls and belongs to the power of the greedy.

Xiao Hui mentioned that the magical girl's house where he was temporarily staying had fought against the Greedy Man before, which also proved that the other party was very clear about this power.

So in this situation, Tang Zijun decided to have a chat first.

Tang Zijun took the phone and casually put it to his ear.

"Hello."

When she heard the male voice coming from the receiver, a look of surprise flashed across Tan Zhixin's face.

Now it was her turn to be surprised.

In fact, Tan Zhixin didn’t think too much about the friends Qin Nan came into contact with, because the only people who could understand things like the outer demons and the strange beast eggs were other magical girls.

So she preconceived that Qin Nan had met a strange lone wolf magical girl during the operation, but she didn't expect that the other party would actually be a man!
However, her calm attitude allowed her to adjust quickly. After turning her head to look at Xiaoqing, she slowly spoke.

"Hello, could you please reveal your identity? Also, regarding the Outer Path Demon and the Magical Girl, this doesn't seem to be information that boys should know."

After hearing the other party's words, Tang Zijun knew that she must have misunderstood.

"I cannot reveal my identity at the moment. I know you won't trust me so easily, but there is nothing wrong with my information. The Outer Path Demon can appear in the sunlight. Qin Nan also witnessed this with his own eyes."

Tan Zhixin's eyes moved. She also understood that it was meaningless to argue about the other party's identity now. What was really important was the matter concerning those foreign demons.

"If only the Outer Path Demons can walk in the sun, then there's nothing to worry about. Those guys in the other world have many abilities, so it's not surprising to see a few daywalkers appearing."

"Daywalker?"

Tang Zijun pondered the word. It was the first time he heard such a term.

"Ah."

Tan Zhixin did not hide anything, or perhaps to her, this information was not a secret.

"These are the names we give to different evil creatures. Among the monsters that invade the real world, although the vast majority are night walkers that can only exist in darkness, over the centuries, some have emerged that are not afraid of sunlight. These are day walkers."

Tang Zijun nodded silently. This classification was not wrong. After all, Chang Lei was the best example.

Apart from Chang Lei and the Mirror-Food God of Greed, Tang Zijun has never seen any other weirdos appear in the sun.

Of course, the sun in the reversed world does not count.

The sun in that place is just an illusion in the mirror, a false thing with only shape but no energy, and cannot be considered a real sun.

At this time, Tan Zhixin's voice came again.

"When did you encounter those beast eggs? And what evidence do you have to show that those beast eggs can be hatched in sunlight?"

"I know what you are suspicious of. I have a spirit beast as a witness. It's not just the demons that can appear in the sun, strange beasts are also one of them." Tang Zijun said.

In the flower shop, Tan Zhixin and Xiaoqing looked at each other with serious eyes.

If it was just one family's words, they might not believe it 100%, but if there was a spirit beast as proof, then the seriousness of the matter would be beyond imagination.

"I don't know who you are, but from what Qin Nan said, you should be a senior magical girl with a lot of experience. If that's the case, then you should know that senior officials in the other world have their own territories."

"I do know something." Tan Zhixin nodded.

Hearing this, Tang Zijun also began to show off the clues he had just received.

"According to my investigation, these exotic beast eggs that can appear in the sunlight all come from the Liaosha region, and the high-ranking demon cadre occupying the Liaosha region is none other than Sir Skeleton."

"Liaosha region. Sir Skeleton" Tan Zhixin frowned.

Now she knew why Qin Nan called her. If the target of the other party's investigation was Skeleton Sir, then Qin Nan, who had been looking for Skeleton Sir, would naturally come into the other party's sight.

Of course, this is just her guess.

The next moment, Tan Zhixin focused her attention on another issue.

"You said that the eggs of the beasts that are not afraid of sunlight all come from the Liaosha region. Are you saying that the other demons in the inner world don't have this technology? This is just Sir Skeleton's personal plan?"

"That's indeed our current speculation, because I haven't received any valuable information from the outsiders in other cities. It seems they are completely unaware of this matter."

Tang Zijun paused for a moment and then added another sentence to be more accurate.

"But we can't rule out the possibility that other senior officials are colluding with Lord Skeleton. I'm currently investigating and trying to expand the scope to other cities."

As soon as these words were spoken, the surprise in Tan Zhixin's eyes was instantly magnified.

Who is this guy?
Not only is he capable of investigating the details of the heretic demons, he has also interrogated the heretic demons in other cities and is even preparing to extend his reach into the territories of more heretic demons.

However, unlike Tan Zhixin on the other end of the phone, Qin Nan was actually quite happy. She sat in front of the computer desk, looking obediently at Tang Zijun who was on the phone, and felt a little excited in her heart.

If you offend this person, you will die soon. Hehehe
Taking a deep breath, Tan Zhixin leaned forward slightly. "I understand what you mean. I'll contact the other sisters and ask them to pay attention to this matter."

"Thank you for your help." Tang Zijun smiled. "By the way, my name is Wolf Rider. I don't know what your name is?"

Wolf rider.

What a strange name.

Tan Zhixin gently raised the corners of her mouth. She knew that this must be the other party's pseudonym, but it didn't matter. Given her current condition, using a pseudonym was indeed her only option.

"My last name is Tan"

Tan Zhixin's gaze shifted and fell on the pistil behind her.

"Call me Qingnang."

Qing Nang?

According to legend, the Qingnang flower is very rare in the world. It only blooms on the full moon night in midsummer every year and withers after a short while.

After a brief chat, both parties hung up the phone, but Tang Zijun was still thinking about the name left by the other party. It seemed that the other party was also a person who understood and loved flowers.

I just wonder if the name of this flower is also a metaphor for herself?

Looking at Tang Zijun, who seemed a little lost in thought, Qin Nan put his phone away. "Sister Tan Qingnang is the person who has taken the most care of me. I owe a lot of my growth to her."

"Then isn't she your caretaker?" Tang Zijun asked casually.

"Forget it." Qin Nan opened his mouth, then shook his head. "I'm already an adult, so why would I need a caregiver?"

Speaking of this, Tang Zijun became curious. He was really interested in the past of the magical girl and Qin Nan.

"Just what kind of existence does this Qing Nang mean to you? It seems like you respect her very much, but you're also afraid of her at the same time."

"Well, I'm not really scared." Qin Nan was a little embarrassed, as if this topic touched her heart.

Just then, Xiao Hui's voice sounded from the side.

"That's because Sister Nan often asked Mr. Qingnang for money. At that time, Sister Nan ignored the advice and insisted on going to Sir Skeleton. As a result, her family fell into poverty before her business was even halfway through. If it weren't for Mr. Qingnang, we would all be sleeping on the streets."

"Xiao Hui, no one will think you are dumb if you don't speak!" Qin Nan glared at Xiao Hui fiercely.

Then she looked at Tang Zijun again, curled her lips and said stubbornly.

"I will pay you back. I'm working for you now. You pay me so much money, I will pay you back slowly."

Tang Zijun didn't really care about this. He was just a little curious about Xiao Hui's address to Qing Nang. "Sir, is this Qing Nang Qin Nan's teacher?"

“That’s more than that.”

Little Gray flapped his wings and flew onto the clothes hanger.

"Mr. Qingnang is the mentor of many magical girls. Since she retired, she has been assisting other magical girls in their battles in this way. Sister Nan used to call her Mr. Tan."

Tang Zijun was immediately cheered up when he heard this.

really!

There are similar organizations among the magical girl professions.

This Mr. Qingnang is most likely the one who unites many magical girls to form a relatively large force.

No wonder, even the Outer Path Demons have divided territories. The magical girls have been fighting those guys for so long, it is impossible for them not to unite.

"So, Mr. Qingnang is the captain of your magical girl team?" Tang Zijun asked.

When they heard this question, Qin Nan and Xiao Hui's expressions changed obviously. They looked at each other and neither of them answered first.

Looking at their appearance, Tang Zijun frowned.

"Did I say something wrong?"

"No."

Xiao Hui shook his head and continued.

"It's just that we don't know how to describe this matter. Ms. Qingnang hasn't participated in the war for a long time, and she has no intention of forming a magical girl team. However, with her promotion, several teams have been formed."

Tang Zijun nodded thoughtfully. He didn't know the reason why Mr. Qingnang retired, nor did he know why the other party had not participated in a war for so long, but what he knew was that the truth of this matter might involve a complicated past.

Magical girls are not as wonderful as you imagine. The outbreak of war means sacrifice, which is unavoidable no matter what.

The reason why Qin Nan became a lone wolf and did not join other magical girl teams was probably because, as she said before, she did not want others to sacrifice themselves for her "personal affairs".

"What Mr. Qingnang is doing now is basically auxiliary." Qin Nan explained.

"If any magical girls encounter difficult outer demons or evil creatures from other worlds, they will report the situation to her."

"After receiving this information, Mr. Qingnang will use his own experience to tell them how to defeat the enemy. If they encounter something that a magical girl cannot solve, she will also help contact nearby magical girls for support."

"So that's how it is." Tang Zijun nodded in understanding.

Simply put, Mr. Qingnang is more like a marshal sitting in the rear.

She will judge the actions of the Outer Path Demons from a global perspective, and provide certain guidance and education to the camp of magical girls. Occasionally, she will "dispatch troops" and send some magical girls to cooperate in hunting down the Outer Path Demons.

In this way, not only will the magical girls' combat effectiveness be improved faster, but their safety can also be guaranteed accordingly.

After all, if a newcomer like Tang Cao is participating in the battle for the first time, it is easy for him to be in danger of his life if he faces those powerful evil creatures or those with special abilities.

But thinking of this, Tang Zijun frowned slightly.

"How did you get in touch with each other? Judging from Ms. Qingnang's accent, she shouldn't be from the north. Can you communicate over such a long distance?"

"In fact, it's usually difficult for magical girls to meet each other. Mr. Qingnang occasionally lets some magical girls travel across provinces and look for new people when they pass through cities that may have vacancies."

Qin Nan replied. "But this is just a matter of luck. If we calculate based on the number of magical girls we previously estimated, Mr. Qingnang has been able to contact less than half of them so far."

"Have you ever estimated the number of magical girls in the country?" Tang Zijun widened his eyes.

"Yeah," Qin Nan said, crossing his arms. "There are so many cities in the country, and some large cities are likely to have many magical girls. We've previously estimated that the total number of magical girls is over 160, and that's just within China."

"If we count those from other countries, wouldn't there be thousands of magical girls on Earth!?" Tang Zijun really didn't expect this.

"There will be some error in the actual number, but it's about the same."

I go
Tang Zijun touched Xiaobai's belly to hide his inner surprise.

I had imagined that there would be quite a few magical girls, but Tang Zijun never expected that there would be so many of them. If they were gathered together, this would almost be the total number of greedy people.

During the three years of fierce fighting, the number of greedy people I killed was probably about the same.

Actually, it is normal to think about it. The world is so big, and dispersing these thousand magical girls is probably not much different from a drop of water falling into the sea, which will not cause any waves.

Not to mention, magical girls not only have to deal with threats from the inner world, but also the surface world and the mirror plane, so this number makes sense.

However, Mr. Qingnang does have some knowledge. If there are more than 160 magical girls in the country, it means that she can contact at least 60 or 70 of them.

This kind of connection is already very powerful. It is said that an old man in the family is like a treasure. In the novels about cultivating immortals, Mr. Qingnang must be a figure at the level of an elder in the clan.

Just thinking about it.

Tang Zijun suddenly felt his hands empty.

Looking down, he saw that Xiaobai had disappeared from his hands at some point.

I raised my head in confusion, and the familiar bedroom suddenly turned into a dilapidated wooden house. A stench of decay and silence filled the air and lingered for a long time.

Looking at this strange scene, Tang Zijun's face froze.

"What's the point of this for me?"
