Magical girls also have intensity anxiety

"This isn't the way to the hospital, is it?" Mu Ming asked, looking at the receding scenery outside the window.

In the past, in order to find the best route to avoid the calamity beasts, he had a rough grasp of the district divisions of Changming City. He couldn't compare to the alleyways and corners, but in terms of familiarity with the main roads, he was probably no less than a taxi driver.

"Okay, let's go to the General Affairs Bureau. I'm more familiar with that place, and the evaluation standards are higher there."

Jin Yu replied naturally, but her words made Mu Ming's heart skip a beat.

He subconsciously thought of the risk of exposure, but immediately calmed down.

Li Huanhuan said she couldn't sense his heart seed, and she didn't even notice Jin Yu right next to her.

Going to the General Administration Bureau shouldn't be a big problem, since it's not the Jiangbei Headquarters.

Before long, they arrived at the Changming City General Affairs Bureau.

"Hello, Ms. Jin Yu."

Good morning, Master Jinyu.

Good morning, senior Jin Yu!

I had only taken a few steps inside when I was greeted by several people, including staff members and magical girls.

Passersby would occasionally cast curious glances at Mu Ming, who was standing next to Jin Yu.

After Jin Yu finished responding to the greetings, she spotted a figure in blue in the rest area and called out:

"Blue Summer".

A girl with blue twin ponytails sat leisurely in a chair, holding a silver spoon in her hand, cutting cake and putting it into her mouth.

"Ah, Senior Jin Yu, what brings you here?"

Qingxia smiled as she put the cake into her mouth, her face beaming with happiness, looking incredibly content.

This made Jin Yu too embarrassed to tell her about her bad mood.

However, since it concerned Zhu Huan of unknown origin, even if she might have overstepped her bounds, she still had to ask:

"Has that magical girl named 'Mu'an' found out anything?"

Upon hearing the unexpected address, Mu Ming's ears perked up.

"Ah...woo!" Qingxia froze for a moment, almost dropping the silver spoon from her mouth. She quickly caught it with her mouth, her smile making her look extremely comical.

"We don't have a clue yet..."

"No clue? It's been about ten days now..."

"Well... there's something I can't say about it..." Qingxia put down her spoon, her expression becoming awkward.

"Is there anything I can help you with? Just tell me," Jin Yu asked, frowning.

Qingxia's guilty conscience was already very obvious:

"No...no, that's not the case."

"Then why is there no progress?"

Faced with Jin Yu's questioning, Qing Xia simply took a deep breath, abruptly tossed her hair, and forced a confident demeanor:

"Wu An's activities are all in the evening, and I get off work at 5 pm."

"...So?" Jin Yu's eyelids drooped slightly.

"I've never even met her once," Qingxia replied, head held high and a proud smile on her face.

I've never even seen it, let alone smelled its exhaust fumes.

People are already tired enough from working and studying during the day. They finally managed to stay up all night, but then they got caught doing manual labor. Who has time to keep an eye on a night owl?

Qingxia also regretted agreeing to investigate Wu'an. She originally thought Wu'an was a diligent folk magic girl, but she didn't expect that she was not active at all during the day.

Of course, this is partly due to her patiently waiting for the opportunity to succeed.

"Then why did you come here on Sunday? It's not your shift this Sunday." Jin Yu narrowed her eyes, her expression kind.

"The food at the General Affairs Bureau is delicious and has a wide variety; there are also many things to do, so it's more comfortable here than at home~"

"Oh, okay? Then come to my office in a bit. I have something for you to eat." Although she was saying affectionate words, Jin Yu instantly switched to a cold, fighting expression.

"Ah...it can't be that bad..." Qingxia's smile froze. Although touching him for more than ten days was indeed a bit harsh, after all, wouldn't Wu'an, who stays indoors during the day but travels thousands of miles at night, be fine?

Is it her fault? No, it's not.

She wasn't shirking her duties; she just had the energy but nowhere to use it.

Qingxia wanted to explain it this way, but she didn't dare to speak.

When someone who always smiles loses their smile, it always makes people uneasy. Qingxia secretly glanced at Jin Yu, but when she met his forced smile, she felt even more frightened.

Then she saw Jin Yu's face, which had been filled with anger, suddenly cool down, and she forced a smile as she looked at the yawning boy next to her and said:

"let's go."

The boy's gaze was cold, not because he was hostile to his surroundings, but more like he didn't care much.

Qingxia hadn't noticed him before, she was too busy with Jinyu.

Looking at them now, they seem completely mismatched standing together, like a glass of ice next to a fireplace.

"She's so afraid of you, are you going to slap her across the face later?"

"cough!"

Mu Ming's question, which sounded like a provocation, made Qing Xia choke for a moment.

She tried to lower her voice so that Jin Yu wouldn't look at her again.

But she found the words absurd; she couldn't imagine someone as gentle as Jin Yu slapping someone.

She stared at Mu Ming's indifferent face, unable to accept that those words had just come from this man's mouth.

This guy seems a bit dim-witted. Asking such a question to someone's face is incredibly disrespectful to a senior. Only a fool would choose to answer.

"No way... I'm not the kind of person who likes to use violence," Jin Yu explained in a hushed voice.

"?"

Jin Yu is indeed very gentle; as the highest-ranking official in Changming City, he has no airs whatsoever.

But... it shouldn't be so mild as to explain such a stupid question, and what's with that waving gesture?

It was as if they were afraid of being disliked if they didn't explain things in time.

This is truly a rare sight. After all, given Jin Yu's status and strength, who in Changming City wouldn't be eager to curry favor with him?

"Senior Jin Yu, who is this young man?" Qing Xia couldn't help but ask.

Jin Yu looked over with a forced smile:

"Qingxia, you should seriously consider your excuse for slacking off for half a month. If you don't have a proper explanation later, I can't deduct your salary, but I can transfer you to a patrol post."

Qingxia lowered her head, silently murmuring to herself:

"How can there be such a fierce smile..."

Even after the two walked away, Qingxia's gaze remained fixed on Muming.

Even though that life seemed boring, Jin Yu was very enthusiastic and patient with him.

"Which family's young master is he?"

Something felt off. A magical girl with power and strength wouldn't need to curry favor with anyone. Besides, her superior held a high position even among the fifth rank.

"younger brother?"

No, they don't seem to be. The two have nothing in common, and their way of getting along isn't very intimate.

Qingxia's gaze followed the two as they walked to the corner. The moment they turned into the corridor, Muming's gaze shifted slightly, and the two exchanged a glance across the distance.

"Purple eyes..."

Qingxia felt a prickling sensation on her scalp, and suddenly realized something.

She quickly pulled out the records about Wu An, which included a few photos of her profile. Even as a woman herself, Qing Xia couldn't help but admire her beauty.

Aside from those purple eyes, he was too cold.

Qingxia recalled Muming's glance just now and felt that he had an inexplicable similarity to Wu'an in the photo.

I vaguely remember that when Senior Jin Yu first met Wu An, he mistook him for an enemy.

Although Qingxia didn't ask for the specific reason why she had misread it, she understood it at this moment.

It must be because of those purple eyes.

Magical girls with this eye color are rare, and... she'd heard that high-ranking magical girls generally dislike purple eyes.

However, Qingxia was unclear about the specific reasons.

Importantly, she had already begun to consider Wu An's identity.

No need to worry about getting your mouth smacked anymore.
