Magical Girl's Knight Brother

"She should still be asleep. She didn't react at all when I got up." Su Siyao didn't dare to look at Tang Zijun. She answered truthfully while playing with her fingers.

"Oh, if only Tang Cao could have a good biological clock like you, so I wouldn't have to spend time waking her up every day." Tang Zijun shrugged helplessly and walked into the kitchen with the bag in his hand.

Su Siyao hesitated for a while and carefully came to the kitchen door.

"Brother Tang, when did you go out?"

"I got up early, and since you guys weren't awake yet, I went out for a walk and bought you some breakfast."

For some reason, Tang Zijun always felt that Su Siyao was a little weird today, as if she wanted to say something but didn't know where to start.

After a pause, Tang Zijun asked with a hint of meaning. "By the way, where did you go last night? I called Tang Cao's phone, but it was out of service."

Hearing this, Su Siyao was stunned for a moment, her eyes a little confused, but her body was not as stiff as before, as if she was recalling something.

After a while, she shook her head slightly. "I remember we went to buy blind boxes, but I don't remember much about what happened afterwards. Maybe the signal was not good there."

While putting the breakfast in the bag onto a plate, Tang Zijun observed Su Siyao's expression without leaving a trace.

Judging from the other party's appearance and steady heartbeat, Su Siyao was not lying.

It seems that she really has no memory of her previous experience of accidentally entering the surface world. This is good news. After all, the fewer people who know about such supernatural things, the better.

"Even though it's the weekend, you can't come back so late." Tang Zijun pretended to mutter, then picked up a large bowl. "Go wake Tang Cao up, it's time to eat."

When she heard that it was time for dinner, Su Siyao suddenly became much more sober.

"Brother Tang, what did you buy?"

"Roujiamo, Liangpi, Youchamogu, and Yangroupaomo." Tang Zijun introduced them and picked up another bag. "Oh, and Zenggao."

"Wow!"

At first, Su Siyao thought she was a little embarrassed that Tang Zijun had discovered her little actions, but now that her attention was drawn to the food, she immediately turned into a foodie again.

Tang Zijun picked up a piece of zongzi with chopsticks.

"Try it, it's sweet and delicious."

"what--"

Su Siyao quickly came to Tang Zijun's side and opened her mouth wide.

After taking a bite, the sweetness of the candied dates immediately burst from the tip of the tongue, and combined with the texture of glutinous rice, Su Siyao couldn't help but let out a soft hum.

"It's called zeng gao, but it's pronounced zing," Tang Zijun explained, then continued, "Don't eat too much. Glutinous rice takes up a lot of space, so don't leave room for other things."

"It's okay, I'm an ox, I have four stomachs~"

Su Siyao smiled innocently, then happily went to call Tang Cao to get up.

"This girl"

Tang Zijun shook his head helplessly and was about to put the mutton soup steamed bun into the bowl. When he turned around, he saw Xiaobai sneaking in and sniffing at Tang Zijun's trouser leg with a curious look on his face.

"You want to try it too?" Tang Zijun raised his eyebrows. He really forgot to bring back canned cat food for Xiaobai.

Xiaobai didn't bother to pay attention to Tang Zijun. He just frowned and lowered his voice.

"Why do you have the aura of an outsider demon?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Zijun broke out in a cold sweat.

He was used to being carefree and almost forgot that his sister was now a magical girl and was very sensitive to the aura of foreign demons.

He used to fight with the power of Kamen Rider, and the energy dissipated after he canceled the transformation. However, he fought without transforming early this morning, so naturally there were some marks left on his body.

After a moment's silence, Tang Zijun carefully listened to the movements in Tang Cao's bedroom. After seeing that there was nothing unusual, he asked tentatively.

"Will Karakusa discover this energy?"

"The scent is very faint and won't alert the Rainbow Crystal Flower. Tangcao isn't as sensitive to the scent of the outer demon as I am." Xiaobai said, and then asked, "You haven't answered my question yet."

Tang Zijun didn't intend to hide it from Xiaobai, so he spoke up. "I helped another magical girl when I went out this morning."

"what?!"

"Shh! Keep your voice down!"

Xiaobai's scream really scared Tang Zijun. He quickly put his finger on his lips and pressed the air with his other hand.

"Who stepped on your tail? Can't you lower your voice a little? Su Siyao is still in the room."

Xiaobai seemed to realize that she had made a bit too much noise, so she shrank her neck, but her expression was still one of shock.

"How dare you contact other magical girls so rashly? Aren't you afraid that they will gather together and kill you?"

"Am I some kind of dungeon boss? Why do you want to form a group to kill me?"

Tang Zijun's mouth twitched, and then he waved his hand.

"Don't worry, I've done all the research. That girl is a lone wolf, experienced and talented. I was just about to have her come over to teach Tang Cao. Here, the agreement and contract have been signed."

"?"

A question mark popped up on Xiaobai's head. She could clearly understand every word, so why did she feel a little confused when they were put together?

"You mean, you found a 'teacher' for Karakusa?"

"You could say that Karakusa has a good learning ability, but she's a bit lazy. She's only enthusiastic about things for a short while. Even though she's so enthusiastic about the magical girl profession now, she'll get lax after a while."

Tang Zijun knows his sister very well.

"So while she's still passionate about this line of work, we should try to improve her combat effectiveness as much as possible. This will also be helpful for her future."

"I've already made arrangements with them. The next time a foreign demon appears in Snow City, I'll arrange for them to come over."

After a pause, Tang Zijun looked at Xiaobai seriously again.

"You better not let anything slip."

Welcome the God of Wealth on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year!

Chapter 52 Alarm

I don’t know if it was because of the smell of breakfast or something else, but Tang Cao was actually successfully woken up by Su Siyao.

Tang Zijun looked out the window in surprise - the sun didn't rise from the west today.

Of course, that's what he said, but Tang Zijun still knew very well why Tang Cao was so "uncharacteristic" today.

After what happened in the outer world last night, Tang Cao was probably worried about what Su Siyao still remembered.

When Su Siyao called him, he perked up even though he was extremely sleepy.

Tang Cao breathed a sigh of relief when she didn't notice anything wrong on her best friend's face. She turned her attention to the dining table.

"Wow! Bro, you traveled through time?"

Hearing this, Tang Zijun adjusted his glasses.

"What are you talking about?"

"If you hadn't traveled through time, how did you get so many Chang'an delicacies?"

Tang Cao ran to the dining table with a thud, his eyes wide open in surprise.

"Forget about mutton soup with steamed buns, they even have oil tea and fried dough twists!"

"Well, it's a newly opened restaurant. I passed by and bought some for you to try." Tang Zijun took a bite of the roujiamo and replied vaguely.

"It's so delicious, which restaurant is it from? I'll go check it out next time!" Su Siyao's eyes lit up.

She is a native of Syracuse and has long been tired of eating at the restaurants around here. Now she heard that a Chang'an Food Restaurant has opened nearby, and she suddenly became excited.

"You can't stop smiling when you talk about food. Don't think you can get away with changing the subject. Where the hell were you two last night? Do you know how worried I was?"

Tang Zijun kept a straight face and cleverly took control of the topic into his own hands.

Sure enough, after hearing Tang Zijun's words, Su Siyao hadn't reacted yet, but Tang Cao's face became visibly tense.

Suddenly, the atmosphere at the table became a little weird.

Tang Zijun didn't want Su Siyao to stare at the origins of the delicacies on the table, but Su Siyao was a little unsure whether her memory of last night was true or false. Tang Cao was worried that his brother would notice something.

The three people present each had their own agenda, and no one broke the silence first.

Finally, Tang Zijun swallowed the roujiamo in his mouth and spoke.

"Since this is your first offense, I won't pursue the matter, but you must remember to inform me before anything you do, especially Yaoyao. Next time, I won't cover for your parents."

"Oh"

Tang Cao and Su Siyao responded weakly.

After dinner, Tang Zijun returned to his room and started working. In order to keep updating, he decided to save as many manuscripts as possible now.

Tang Zijun had a premonition that he might not be able to live a life of idleness and typing for a long time to come.

The years pass by lightly between the spring breeze and the cloudy rain.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

Tang Zijun's life has been relatively peaceful these days. Every day he wakes up his sister, prepares three meals, and then takes time to write more. There is no difference from his previous life.

As for those external demons, no one knew what had happened, but they had all gone silent in the past few days. Even though Tang Zijun habitually searched for them in the reversed world, he could not find any trace of them.

Just when Tang Zijun was wondering if these guys were on a collective vacation, Xiaobai suddenly sneaked into his bedroom.

Looking at Tang Zijun who had fallen asleep, Xiaobai jumped into the air and landed directly on Tang Zijun's chest.

"."

After taking a breath, Tang Zijun's mouth twitched.

".Xiaobai, what are you doing?"

"I told you to get up." Xiaobai said as a matter of course.

"I was awake when you came in." Tang Zijun looked at Xiaobai in front of him speechlessly, wishing he could punch her.

However, Xiaobai had no intention of playing around. She just looked at Tang Zijun seriously and spoke in a low voice.

"I sense the presence of the Outer Path Demon, it's very faint. Get ready, I'll go wake up Tang Cao."

Hearing this, Tang Zijun's expression became serious.

This was the plan he and Xiaobai had privately made two days ago.

In order for Qin Nan to make his debut in a suitable manner, they must wait until the new heretic demon appears.

Once Xiaobai sensed the breath of the heretic demon, he would tell Tang Zijun the approximate location of the other party first. In this way, he could notify Qin Nan, who was thousands of miles away, in advance.

Tang Zijun got up quickly and walked to the window.

Soon, the reflection on the window glass began to become illusory, and not long after, a chaotic light and shadow appeared in Tang Zijun's field of vision.

The first thing that catches your eye is a dazzling light. The colorful lights interweave in the dim environment, coupled with the smoke in the air, giving people a dreamy feeling.

In the huge dance floor, the crowd twisted their bodies to the strong rhythm. Surrounding the dance floor was a circle of sofas filled with people of all kinds.

Some of them were laughing heartily, some were talking in low voices, and some had dazed eyes, obviously drunk and immersed in this intoxicating atmosphere.

The large screen on the wall of the main stage kept changing the images, echoing with the lights. The light and shadow were even about to pierce through the glass of Tang Zijun's window.

No wonder I didn’t notice the other party’s existence, but Xiaobai sensed the heretic demon first.

It turns out that the other party is hiding in such a place.

Tang Zijun frowned slightly, with a complicated expression.

Now Tang Zijun knows where his weakness lies. Although he can monitor the entire world through the power of the reversed world, if those external demons hide in places with chaotic smells, they can still hide from his perception.

After all, I just went through it roughly and didn't check every place one by one.

There is no way around it. The world is just too big. Even if Tang Zijun is willing, he is powerless in the face of countless cities, big and small.

"How is it, did you find it?" Xiaobai also came over and looked at the scene reflected in the glass curiously.

"Yeah, elite-level combat power."

Tang Zijun nodded slightly. Just by taking a look from a distance, he judged the opponent's strength and then turned to look at Xiaobai.

"You go get Tang Cao, I'll go find Qin Nan."

"it is good."
