Chihaya Aine will not fall into the Shura field, never!

"Alright, let's begin today's lesson. Did you record today's match?"

"Yes, yes."

Ai Yin nodded. From the very beginning of the battle, she had Crown Heart start recording.

"Then open it up. I'll review your performance and point out your problems. If there's still time, practice your offensive and breakthrough magic."

"clear."

After finishing his work at Ai-yin's house, Xiangzi received a call from his partner on his way home.

"Hailin, is something the matter?"

"Lixi has entered the underground Tokyo Stock Exchange."

On the other end of the phone came the girl's calm voice, but Xiangzi, who knew the girl's personality well, could hear a hint of urgency in that calmness.

Why would she go there?

"I don't know, Xiangzi, I want to go and bring her out."

"Wait, Hailing, you know we already alerted them last time. If you go there, everything will be ruined."

“I don’t use the identity of Ave Mujica.”

“That won’t work either. Using Hachiman Kairin’s identity will make people wary of your public persona, and we can’t afford that outcome.”

"What should we do? I promised Maki-nee that I would take good care of Riki."

Hearing the determination in Hailing's voice, Xiangzi frowned, her head throbbing. This truly put them in a dilemma. That bastard Shiina Tatsuki, what's he up to? Running off to the underground Tokyo marketplace?

What are you doing?

Wait, there seems to be a way!

They have no way to take action, but some people don't have their limitations!

“Hailin, I’ll give you a cell phone number. Tell her, under the name Timoris of Ave Mujica, that Shiina Tatsuki is in danger at the underground Tokyo Exchange.”

If Aine were to intervene, she should be able to bring Riki back.

As for why he didn't personally notify Aine, well, that involves a very practical issue.

She, Toyokawa Shoko, only has one cell phone!

What's the difference between letting her inform Aine about this and telling Aine in person that she is a member of Ave Mujica?

So, when Aine was getting ready to go to sleep, she received this message.

[Shiina Tatsuki is in the underground Tokyo Stock Exchange; her situation is dangerous. Go help her immediately.]

The phone number is an unknown number, but the message ends with...

Timoris of Ave mujica!

What's going on? Was the message sent to the wrong person?

wrong!

The information said it was about Shiina Tatsuki, who went to the underground Tokyo Stock Exchange?

What is she going there for?

So, Ai-yin replied to the message immediately.

How did you know that Lixi went to the underground Tokyo Stock Exchange? Were you following her?

Believe it or not, I've sent you the address to the exchange. If you don't go, Shiina Tatsuki might not come back!

After that, Timoris sent another link, but after that, no matter how many messages Ai Yin sent, Timoris did not reply.

"What should we do about this?"

Aine scratched her hair.

Go by yourself?

Since Timoris said it was very dangerous, if she went alone, she might end up getting herself killed along with Lixi.

After all, she was quite familiar with Li Xi's abilities.

So she sent a message in the team group and sent the screenshot.

Aiyin: @Sushi @Xiaodeng @Lenai, it's said that Lixi is in danger, what do you think?

Xiaodeng: Lixi? Indeed, Lixi was acting a bit strange on the way back.

Aiyin: @Lixi, are you there? What's the situation on your end?

Li Xi: ... This is my private matter, you don't need to get involved.

Lixi: And that Timoris, I'll remember her!

What do you mean she can't go back if Aine and the others don't come? Is she that weak?

Somewhere in the underground Tokyo Stock Exchange, Riki stared blankly at the information on his phone, then heard a commotion coming from afar.

Lixi: Anyway, I'll handle this myself. It's late now, you guys should go to sleep!

Seeing Lixi say this, Ai Yin felt relieved. Since Lixi could still reply to messages, it meant that the situation was not as bad as she had imagined.

Moreover, Su Shi hadn't responded, so she was probably asleep. In that case, she might as well go to sleep too.

However, a news report on television the next day made Aine realize the seriousness of the situation.

[Urgent Notice: Reports of extreme xenophobia at the Tokyo underground stock exchange have been verified. The public is urged not to enter the exchange in the short term and to wait for the lifting of the curfew.]

Clearly, the Tokyo authorities had always been aware of the exchange's existence and had allowed it to continue; however, they were probably caught off guard by this sudden turn of events.

Upon seeing this, Ai Yin immediately took out her phone and sent a message in the group without saying a word.

Aiyin: @Lixi, Lixi, are you back?

Then, after Ai Yin finished breakfast, Li Xi still didn't respond, but Xiao Deng had already responded in the group chat.

Xiaodeng: Anno-chan, Lixi hasn't responded yet, what should I do?

Suze: Akari, don't rush, let's meet at RiNG first! Chihaya-kun, could you call Yoru-kun over here?

Aine: I'm going out now. As for Rakuna, there's nothing I can do. If it were during the school year, I could find her somewhere, but on weekends, unless she shows up on her own, no one can find her!

Su Shi: Is that so? Well, there's nothing I can do about it then. See you later.

After contacting Su Shi and Xiao Deng, Ai Yin hurriedly went out.

"Seriously, Lixi, is this what you call something you can handle on your own?"

Now, Ai Yin regrets listening to Li Xi last night. She should have just rushed over and brought that guy out.

mygo！！！！！：Chapter Twenty-Three: The Whole City is the Enemy!

When Ai Yin arrived at the RiNG entrance, Xiao Deng and Su Shi were already there.

"Tomorin, Su Shi, have you been waiting long?"

"No, not long ago."

Xiao Deng shook his head.

"Anno-chan, let's hurry and go find Riki."

Yesterday, Aine posted a screenshot in the group chat containing an address link, which is probably the teleportation magic circle leading to the underground Tokyo Stock Exchange.

"Well, come with me."

Guided by the Crown Heart, Aine, Sosei, and Kodama quickly found the teleportation magic circle and entered the underground Tokyo Stock Exchange through it.

The underground Tokyo Stock Exchange, somewhere

"I never imagined that the exchange would actually be such a huge town!"

In a secluded alley, Aine sneaked around.

It wasn't her idea; who would have thought that a local mage would be waiting at the entrance to the teleportation array?

Before the three of them could even observe their surroundings, they were bombarded with magic. If it weren't for Xiaodeng's protective magic, the three of them would have been knocked unconscious on the spot.

"Something huge must have happened to the exchange."

Su Shi also spoke softly.

“When I came here a year ago, this place wasn’t like this.”

Now, advertisements are posted on large screens all over the streets, showing photos of the three of them; it's practically a city-wide reward!

Anyone who provides clues or catches the three of them will receive a huge reward.

As a result, most of the mages in the city are probably thinking about capturing the three of them.

"Let's put aside what happened a year ago. If things continue like this, we won't be able to move an inch, let alone go find Lixi!"

Ai Yin was getting a little frantic.

"Why isn't there a bounty notice for Li Xi?"

At this moment, Xiaodeng asked the core question.

This made Ai Yin suddenly realize, "Holy crap, Xiao Deng is a genius! He hit the nail on the head!"

The reason there's no bounty is simply because Li Xi has already been caught, so naturally there's no bounty.

So their destination was simple: storm the police station!

"That's a crime!"

Su Shi looked at Aine expressionlessly.

"I...I didn't say anything!"

"Your expression clearly showed that!"

"Then what do you suggest we do now?!"

“Come with me. I have a business here, and perhaps she can offer us some help.”

Is your friend reliable?

Ai Yin was a little worried.

"Don't worry about that. She won't even care about such a small reward."

inside."

Aiyin: 。 。 。 。 。

The bounty that would make most of the mages in the city envious was just a pittance in the eyes of her friends. What a rich young lady she is!

After a series of evasive maneuvers, Su Shi, along with Xiao Deng and Ai Yin, arrived at the magnificent manor.

Su Shi stepped forward and rang the doorbell. Soon, the door opened.

"Ms. Sushi!"

"Grandpa Butler, is You Li here now?"

"The young lady hasn't been here recently."

The butler looked around and, finding no one nearby, quickly ushered Su Shi and the other two inside.

"Miss Su Shi, please come in quickly with your friends. The exchange isn't very welcoming to outsiders lately, and it would be troublesome if we were discovered."

Perhaps because the owners do not live here, the huge estate is only managed by about a dozen people.

After leading Su Shi, Xiao Deng, and Ai Yin to the living room, the butler pushed in a television screen.

“Miss Su Shi, I told the eldest young lady about your visit, and she said she wants to speak with you.”

"Okay, Grandpa Butler, connect me."

Su Shi nodded, and then the television was turned on, revealing a baby-faced girl with long, jet-black hair.

"Su Shi, how have you been lately?"

"Long time no see, You Li. Thank you for your concern. I'm doing well."

"Well."
