Starting with magical girls, I'll reign supreme for eternity.

"Disaster Management Bureau? Ha, I can't be bothered to talk about them. They're ambitious, deceitful, and their favorite thing to do is immediately claim credit for the Qingyun Sect's achievements. They're ruthless, truly ruthless! But what can you do? They're shameless, that's good..."

When the video ended, the entire conference room fell into a deathly silence.

Camellia tilted her head and looked Susan up and down. "How so?"

After a long silence, Susan flicked her blonde hair and said earnestly, "Camellia, you need to know that no matter how much you do, you will offend just as many people. You can never avoid having one or two people who don't understand you or even oppose you."

“But I have more than a dozen here.” The inspector selected another video from the folder. “Should I show them all to you?”

"no need."

Susan immediately refused, then sighed, "I know the public doesn't understand or support me."

"You just said that the public supports it."

"There are always supporters, but there are also those who don't, it's about half and half."

"I don't even have half of it here."

“There’s too little data; the survey will be biased,” Susan coughed.

Both Mudan and Liyi sighed.

Even Susan probably couldn't hold out any longer; there's always a limit to how blatantly lying can go.

Now that Camellia has exposed all their secrets, there's really no way to hide them anymore...

The General Administration Inspector is terrifying.

Captain Susan, you've done your best, that's enough.

You don't need to face an opponent you can't beat at all...

"However, the Qingyun Sect is just a branch of my Disaster Prevention Bureau."

However, Susan's single sentence commanded their utmost respect.

A lie that wouldn't even fool a child can be uttered with such conviction.

What a powerful sense of conviction this is!

Camellia tilted her head, not refuting, but looked at Li Yi and Peony, asking, "Really?"

Both of them nodded repeatedly.

Camellia paused for a moment, then gave a relaxed smile, nodded slightly, and said, "Okay."

The other three also breathed a sigh of relief.

They finally managed to fool him.

Then, as she packed her things, Shancha said somewhat embarrassedly, "Let's stop here for now. Where's the restroom? I need to use it. I think I drank too much tea."

After someone pointed out the location to her, Camellia came out alone and jogged into the corridor.

Her initially innocent smile gradually turned into one of fear. She hugged her incubator, her voice a little hurried.

"It's all over! Xiao An! The entire North Sea Disaster Management Bureau is now under the control of the Qingyun Sect! The magical girls in the Disaster Management Bureau couldn't possibly have been so obediently studying for so long, and they even dared to contradict the Inspector. There must be something fishy about them..."

As she said this, Camellia suddenly felt a little dizzy.

Then she discovered that the pictures in the surrounding corridors, which used to depict all sorts of magical girls, had all turned into four-leaf clovers.

Four-leaf clover...

She suddenly remembered something.

She seemed to have seen a four-leaf clover in that place where thunder was rolling.

She didn't notice the four-leaf clover floating in the air because of the dazzling lightning.

While wandering around BH City, I also saw it in the eyes of many people...

There was also a four-leaf clover in the teacup I just drank from.

Why did it take so long to realize this?

A chill ran straight up from the bottom of her heart. Camellia didn't know if it was from dizziness or the cold, but she felt like she was about to collapse.

Why did she and Xiao An believe without hesitation that the creation of the S-class disaster beast had failed?

The creation of the Calamity Beast failed?

why?

Is what they saw the truth?

“Xiao An…”

She tried to call out to the incubator, only to find that the incubator also looked dazed, with a four-leaf clover appearing in its pupils.

So many, so many four-leaf clovers.

Consciousness was gradually submerged in the four-leaf clover.

S-class disaster beasts, really, have not been born?

How terrifying, Beihai...

As the four-leaf clover gradually disappeared, Camellia blinked, her vision clearing.

The incubators around them also came to their senses.

Then Camellia scratched her head, "Huh, what was I thinking about just now?"

The incubator next to him reminded him, "We've contacted the headquarters. The Beihai Disaster Management Bureau of the headquarters is doing its best. Everything is fine, don't worry!"

"Oh yeah, oh yeah, how could I have forgotten that?"

Camellia chuckled and picked up her phone. "First patrol mission, a perfect success!"

……

Coco stayed at home waiting, occasionally going out to take a look.

But it never came.

In addition, she spent the whole night thinking about Jiang Si and Teacher Ziyuan, which prevented her from sleeping well at all.

I was originally planning to call Yiyi and chat for a while.

I feel less nervous after chatting with Yiyi for a while.

But Yiyi didn't answer the phone, so she could only sigh as she looked at the empty contact list on her phone.

I opened my text messages and found many, many messages I had sent to my parents.

In fact, when her parents were still alive, she rarely sent text messages because she didn't use a mobile phone much back then.

I only started using a cell phone after my parents died.

Because Jiang Si wouldn't comfort her, nor would she sleep with her, Coco felt both scared and lonely many nights.

I'm always afraid of ghosts or monsters, especially when there's thunder or other noises outside.

Coco is very timid. In the past, she would run to her parents' bedroom at the slightest disturbance. Although she would occasionally disturb her parents, most of the time, her parents would go along with her and let her sleep with them.

Since my parents passed away, even when I go to their bedroom, I'm always alone.

So every night, when I feel unbearably lonely or so scared that I want to cry, I pick up my phone and keep sending text messages to my parents, messages full of complaints, grievances, and venting.

Even though she knew the number on the other end was invalid, she kept sending messages.

Lying on the sofa, looking at a bunch of text messages she had sent before, Coco couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

But I was also filled with immense emotion.

As I grew older, I sent fewer text messages. Since becoming a magical girl, I haven't sent a single text message to my parents.

Now that I have nothing to do and my mind is full of thoughts, I can't help but send text messages to my parents again.

"Mom and Dad, my brother already has a girlfriend."

Contrary to what you might think, it seems there are quite a few people who like my brother.

Yi Yi seems to like her brother a little, and Susan always looks at him with strange eyes.

I've read a lot of romance comics, and it's clear that Susan cares a lot about her brother.

Caring is the prelude to liking.

Iris-senpai also said something very manga-like: "My brother is an interesting person, which caught my attention."

There's also her brother's girlfriend, Shion, who also really likes him.

When they went on their last date, Ms. Shion looked very happy, cute, and beautiful.

However, the older brother did not react at all when he saw that charming smile.

He was cold to Ms. Shion because he had fallen for someone who wouldn't like him back.

My brother is such a jerk. He clearly has someone he likes, but he's dating Shion-sensei.

But everyone really likes him, it's so frustrating. Mom, were you like that with Dad back then too?

I'm really afraid that when I talk to Ms. Shion, she will get angry, and I'm also afraid that she will be sad.

If she cries, Coco will probably cry too.

Sigh, why did it turn out like this?

But, Mom, Dad, I don't know why, I feel at ease if they break up.

Coco is a very selfish child.

I hope that I am the most important person in their hearts...

She poured out her complicated feelings to her parents, and before she knew it, she had fallen asleep on the sofa.

She saw that after she and Ms. Ziyuan had explained Jiang Si's thoughts, Ms. Ziyuan took her to confront Jiang Si.

Jiang Si admitted his feelings without hesitation: the person he liked was the magical girl who had saved them.

The purpose of seeking out Shion-sensei was simply to use her as a substitute, to find the shadow of that magical girl in her.

Even when Ms. Ziyuan was angry, she didn't show any expression; she just shed tears and suddenly attacked Jiang Si.

She tried to stop her, but Ms. Shion gave her a gentle push and she fell to the ground, unable to get up.
