Magical Girl's Knight Brother

Chapter 115 'Power'

Thinking back now, Qin Nan still broke out in a cold sweat.

In fact, it was not her who discovered the abnormality of the fish tank. Qin Nan herself had never come into contact with the Greedy One, and her perception of the Mirror Core was not that strong. It was Xiao Hui who really discovered that something was wrong.

When Tang Cao and Su Siyao were sent away, Xiao Hui followed Qin Nan to Tang Zijun's bedroom. He looked at the lair of this horrible creature with great curiosity.

A wooden desk, a neatly made bed, everything was so ordinary, even a little simple, forming a huge contrast with Tang Cao's room which was filled with figures and surrounding areas.

Just as Xiao Hui was observing the furnishings in the room, he casually noticed the fish tank on the cabinet next to the computer host.

But just this one glance scared him to death!

The fish tank itself is not particularly luxurious, neither too big nor too small, it is a medium-sized fish tank of 90cm. There are no aquatic plants or the like in the tank, but it is neatly covered with a layer of crystal glass.

The colored glazes were colorful and looked extremely beautiful on the surface. On top of the colored glazes, a butterfly-tailed goldfish was swimming sluggishly. Qin Nan even reached out to tease it with great interest.

But Xiao Hui behind her was so frightened that he couldn't speak.

Those are not crystal glass at all, those things are the mirror cores that the greedy people turned into after their death. There are so many of them, I’m afraid all the greedy people in the entire mirror world are here!

It was not until then that Xiao Hui understood why no greedy person had shown up in these seven years. How could they show up? Aren't they all in a meeting here?

However, because Tang Zijun was pulled into the dream world, this matter was always buried in Xiao Hui's heart. It was not until they returned home that they dared to reveal it to Qin Nan.

After Qin Nan learned the truth about the fish tank, she was at a loss for a long time, but then she suddenly felt relieved.

Although this scene is indeed scary when you think about it carefully, doesn't it also prove that Tang Zijun did not lie to himself?

In fact, Qin Nan has been struggling with her relationship with Tang Zijun. On the one hand, she is afraid of Tang Zijun's power and is worried that things will develop to an irreversible point because of her wrong trust.

On the other hand, the other party is her boss, and Tang Zijun has to pay her salary. In addition, Tang Cao is a new magical girl, and various force majeure factors force her to take one step at a time.

But now, the greedy man's whole family is all together. Not only did Tang Zijun not lie, he even didn't bother to hide it. He just put it in the fish tank openly and let him see it.

From Qin Nan's point of view, if she had such a thing at home, other magical girls would have to pay two tickets to visit.

It can't be the kind where if three people go together, one person gets free, so each person gets 200 yuan, and no bargaining is allowed.

As Tan Zhixin listened to Qin Nan's story, her expression became more and more wonderful.

Even though she was a veteran retired magical girl with excellent facial expression control, she couldn't help but lose her composure when she heard such a fantastic thing.

Gently rubbing her temples, Tan Zhixin took a long time to digest this information. "So you think this Mr. Tanlangqi is on our side?"

"I don't know his position, but I know he didn't lie." Qin Nan shrugged.

Looking at Qin Nan's indifferent look, Tan Zhixin was a little at a loss for a moment.

Perhaps it was because Tang Zijun appeared too suddenly, or perhaps it was because of the painful experiences in the past that made her a frightened bird. In this matter, Tan Zhixin had been trying hard to keep up with the other party's thinking.

But no matter how hard she tried, her mind still couldn't sort out the logic and context of this matter. Wolf Rider's identity and his past, these mysteries were like a tangled mess.

Tan Zhixin was also stuck in a dilemma, until she saw Qin Nan's reaction and answer at this time, she suddenly understood.

"Sorry." Tan Zhixin sighed softly and lamented. "The adult world is more complicated. I just like to think about all sorts of things. I wish I were as simple as you."

"You finally admit that you are old." Qin Nan grinned.

Then, seeing Tan Zhixin's gentle smile on the screen, Qin Nan's face suddenly froze and he immediately changed his words.

"I'm just kidding, don't take it seriously. I understand your perspective. After all, you're thinking about this from a broader perspective. Actually, I haven't decided whether to tell you about this. I'm thinking about observing for a while."

At this time, Xiao Hui came over with a smug look on his face. "You're just worried that something unexpected might happen and you won't be able to get a permanent position. I'm embarrassed to point it out to you—Ah!"

Before he could finish, Qin Nan slapped him under the table.

"Promotion? What do you mean?"

Tan Zhixin noticed the key point in Xiao Hui's words.

Qin Nan licked his lips, glanced at Xiao Hui who was cursing under the table, and explained helplessly.

"He asked me to tutor his sister. His sister just became a magical girl not long ago. Don't let your imagination run wild. It's different from the previous situation. His sister is the real deal. Xiao Hui and I have checked several times."

After a pause, Qin Nan continued.

"Logically, every magical girl's spirit beast is responsible for her early education, but for some reason, that girl's spirit beast is like it's drunk and doesn't know anything." Originally, Qin Nan wanted to reveal some information about the dream world, since Tan Zhixin knew a lot and should have some understanding of it.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, she thought of Tang Zijun's warning and quickly shut her mouth. Fortunately, Tan Zhixin's attention was not here, so she didn't notice anything unusual.

"Is that why you came into contact with him?"

"The salary is quite high. It's just that this matter is very complicated and I can't explain it to you in detail. Anyway, I'm telling you, I've thought it over carefully. It doesn't matter if you disagree. The contract has already been signed!"

"Is there still a contract?"

"Of course." Qin Nan opened the drawer and took the small thick stack of A4 paper to the computer, showing it to Tan Zhixin opposite him.

This was the contract agreement she had printed out a long time ago, with both parties clearly signed. However, because Tang Zijun didn't have a seal, she used a fingerprint instead.

"Look, it's clearly written in black and white. Five social insurances and one housing fund, two days on and five days off, free food and accommodation, travel expenses, and even a meal allowance. Don't ruin such a good job for me."

"."

Tan Zhixin took a deep breath and slowly calmed herself down.

To be honest, she hadn't thought of this.

No wonder Qin Nan said that this matter is rather complicated. The actual situation is indeed so. A greedy person killed other greedy people and then recruited magical girls to work for him. The weirdness of this matter is no less than the evil dragon funding the brave man to knock down the devil and his second uncle.

Although Tan Zhixin did not read the contract carefully, the treatment described by Qin Nan was enough to prove the other party's wealth.

Not to mention Qin Nan, if these conditions were placed on other magical girls, I'm afraid many of them would rush over to sign up.

Tan Zhixin has always been worried that the Wolf Rider has some powerful power in his hands, but she did not expect that this is the power of capital.
Tan Zhixin pretended to be calm and drank a sip of tea. She felt dizzy, but soon she returned to her usual lazy state.

Now she could understand what Qin Nan meant by believing in his humanity. Unlike all evil forces, humanity was something that those monsters in human skin could never disguise.

Even if they can suppress their bloodthirsty instincts, they will never be able to truly think like humans.

And Wolf Rider did it, even better than her, the magical girl communicator.

"I think I understand what you mean," Tan Zhixin said softly. "I won't interfere with your choice. After all, you're grown up now."

"But I noticed you look weird. I've seen this expression before. You had it when Little Graybeard scared your customers away. You're not planning on plotting against him, are you? I suggest you don't. His fighting ability is unfathomable."

Before Qin Nan could finish, Tan Zhixin rolled her eyes at her. "What are you talking about? I'm just thinking about how to approach him in the future."

The appearance of Wolf Rider was indeed a surprise to Tan Zhixin, and also an unstable factor. She couldn't be sure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

But what she understood was that the accident had already happened, and in the future more and more magical girls would notice the existence of Wolf Rider.

At present, everyone thinks that the Greedy Ones in the Mirror World are still dormant, but the news of the Greedy Ones' annihilation cannot be concealed for long. Once it is exposed, even the balance between the inner world and the real world may be broken.

The activities of the heretic demons have become more and more frequent recently. Not only is it the conspiracy of Sir Skeleton, but other senior cadres are also ready to make a move.

In a situation where one move could affect the entire body, Tan Zhixin has to face the Wolf Riders with caution. No one can predict what will happen in the future, but at the moment, maintaining order and stability is the key.

Thinking of this, Tan Zhixin said softly, "Go and rest first. I'll find you later if I need you."

"So you called me late at night just to ask this?" Qin Nan twitched his lips. "Can't you tell me during the day? I finally managed to find some time to rest."

Tan Zhixin shook her head slowly and raised her hand to close the computer.

Her eyes fell on the diary next to the computer, and a hint of gloom appeared on her face again.

In fact, she contacted Qin Nan not just for the matter of Wolf Rider, but she hesitated for a long time and ultimately failed to bring the topic to the diary.

Qin Nan was still young when her parents were murdered, and she didn't understand many things, so Tan Zhixin didn't want to open her scars so quickly.

If these things had not happened, perhaps starting with Qin Nan would have been the best way, but now, Tan Zhixin has a better choice.

My gaze shifted, and in the reflection of the window glass, I saw a blurry figure slowly walking towards me.

Seeing this scene, Tan Zhixin stood up with a smile on her lips.
