The witch who hunts the magical girl will not be killed in return

The hand that was clamoring to untie the towel also dropped down.

She never expected that her daughter, who usually disliked even being touched by her, would hug her directly.

Even though her heart was harder than iron, it began to waver at this moment.

"I say, since I became a girl, has your attitude towards me become too nice?"

"..."

"Why don't you speak?"

"Ah, eh? Ouch!"

Luo Zining seemed to have come back to her senses from some extremely pleasant experience, and hurriedly replied: "Who made my dad look much more pleasing to the eye now than before."

"Sure enough." Luo You rolled his eyes.

Cuteness is so omnipotent, but from another perspective, this world where looks matter so much is really damn disgusting!

"Okay, okay, I'll put on a towel when I'm not in the pool, okay? Besides, the wind is blowing so cold, I must put on a towel when I get out of the water, so let go of it."

By the way, the temperature of Jiuming Sea is below 0°C all year round.

"Oh, um."

Luo Zining's cheeks turned slightly red, and she let go reluctantly. At this moment, she was obviously absent-minded, as if her soul was left behind ten seconds ago.

"You guys are pretty quick."

Zhou Xi arrived late.

She was dressed more conservatively, in a half-piece swimsuit that revealed too little, which dampened Luo You's anticipation.

What? She was screaming so loudly in bed, but she's surprisingly timid when she's wearing it.

"Miss Youyou, you..."

"Just call me Xiaoyou."

"puff!"

Someone couldn't help but laugh, but Luo You pretended not to hear.

This address was too familiar, so Zhou Xi used a name he was used to, "Youyou, are you really wearing... that one?"

Luo You spread his hands, "Yes, it's a pity that Zi Ning won't let me show it. How could I have raised such a remnant of the feudal dynasty."

"Well, I think what she said makes sense. After all... you have to see who is wearing it. If you wear it, it will be too lethal."

Zhou Xi spoke rather directly, but he also touched Luo You's heart.

Well~~you have to pinch it~~it depends on the person.

I'm so beautiful, but if they can only look at me but not touch me, it would be too cruel to the little virgins here.

however--

Despite being so proud inside, Luo You showed a youthful and cute smile on the surface.

"Even if you praise me, I can only give you a smile~"

Depend on!

Luo Zining subconsciously looked at the bushes next to him.

If you want to commit a crime, bringing people there is undoubtedly an ideal place.

Zhou Xi was also confused when he saw it. This must be a little angel!

I actually thought she was threatening me before. I reflect on that!

"Well, I'll go down first."

Zhou Xi walked towards the large pool in front, and when she went into the water, she pulled the hem of her skirt without making a sound.

Luo You saw through this little trick at a glance.

It's like...being afraid of being seen doing something unspeakable.

Flower City

Zhao Xin had just finished a meeting and slumped over the table exhausted.

"Alas, I clearly told Zhou Xi to go to Jiuming Sea to take shelter, but he still had to be interrogated."

Elera's appearance caused great tension in the Magic Alliance.

The Magic Alliance will certainly learn the details from the victims this time.

And the one who went to inquire was one of the ten candidates for the Magic Alliance.

"Sorry Zhou Xi, your hot spring vacation might be a little troublesome..."

17. The abacus clanged loudly

[Zining is too much of a nuisance. How can I get close to Zhou Xi? ]

In the hot spring pool, Luo You popped his head out of the water and stared at Luo Zining.

No matter when, she always stood between herself and Zhou Xi perfectly.

She definitely did it on purpose. Luo You blew bubbles in the water to vent her inner dissatisfaction.

That's right, it was intentional.

After Luo Zining missed Luo You and Zhou Xi several times, he couldn't help sneering in his heart.

Humph, Lao Deng, don’t I understand you?

I was saying, how could a virgin like you not be happy seeing a wild magical girl? You were just pretending!

As long as I'm here, don't even think about touching Senior Zhou Xi!

Although he thought so in his heart, Luo Zining didn't realize that there was a bit more hostility and vigilance in his eyes when he looked at Zhou Xi.

Time just passes by every second.

"Zining, your phone is lit up." Luo You suddenly said, pointing at the waterproof bag on the shore.

"Again, I won't be fooled... huh?"

Luo Zining looked back and saw that the phone in the waterproof bag really rang, and it was Zhao Xin calling.

Because of the special nature of magical girls, they must always carry their cell phones with them. Zhao Xin's call was about work.

She took the phone, said a few words, turned around and looked at Luo You and Zhou Xi uneasily, then went to a deserted place to answer the phone, looking back every few steps.

Luo You didn't hear clearly what Luo Zining was saying to the person on the phone.

She only heard the first two sentences, and it seemed that someone would need Luo Zining to receive her later.

[Probably someone from the Magic League.] Luo You thought.

Now it's your turn.

As soon as she turned around, Zhou Xi's voice came first.

"Youyou, what do you think of magical girls?"

"....Celebrity? Internet celebrity?"

"That's a really common answer."

“It is just like this for ordinary people.”

But if Luo You was asked to answer sincerely and objectively, she would probably add a few not-so-decent labels.

That's the one you often see in books.

“But your answer is correct…”

Zhou Xi relaxed his whole body, feeling emotional and melancholy, and slowly expressed what was in his mind.

Celebrities, internet celebrities, idols... this is indeed the general public's impression of magical girls, because this is their usual development path.

"But this is only true for second- and third-tier magical girls," she said.

Those magical girls who are stationed on the front lines at the border customs almost never leave the country.

Because you never know when you might die.

Even the strongest magical girl Xingyue, the reports about her only exist in text descriptions, and there are few photos leaked.

"Yueyuezi and I...ah, Yueyuezi is one of my companions. She and I were temporarily transferred from the front line to deal with a dimensional beast that fled to Huahai City."

"I thought it was a sure win, but the result... was not so good."

"I can't tell you the details, but... the casualties of magical girls may increase again."

Zhou Xi let out a long sigh.

Because of a dimensional monster, the garrison force in Huahai City was almost wiped out.

After that defeat, it became questionable whether she and Yue Yuezi could return to the front line.

It's not because of questioning their strength and physical condition, but because of concern for their psychological problems.

"Oh." Luo You responded calmly.

I don’t know why she suddenly told me these things. Maybe she just wanted to vent the pressure in her heart.

After all, the changes that happened in Huahai City a few days ago were indeed worthy of attention.

A creature that looks like a combination of a human and a dimensional beast is simply unheard of.

It has been more than twenty years since the first dimensional beast appeared, but this is the first time Luo You has seen one like that.

That should be considered an example of 'the first time humans have mastered the power of dimensional beasts', which may cause a bloody storm.

[Are the ones involved in this the Inhuman Organization, the government department, or... the Magic Alliance? ]

Luo You had doubts about all three parties.

The most likely possibility is the Inhuman Organization, after all, they were villains in the past.

The second is the Magic Alliance.

So far, humans do not know much about this mysterious group from the depths of the sea.

This is the reason why local government departments do not provide much media support to magical girls.

Although the Inhuman Organization's criminal record is not very good, at least they are confirmed to be human. Most of their special abilities are obtained through "mutation", and the relevant departments know them inside and out.

As for the Magic Alliance...that's not necessarily the case.

Although magical girls are people selected from the human population, the source of their power remains unclear and unexplored.

There are so many terrifying secrets in the depths of the sea that the advance teams sent out always return empty-handed. More people go out than come back.

In addition, the Magic Alliance is very resistant to the jurisdiction and supervision of the human government, so it is treated with special vigilance.

In the first two years after magical girls appeared, their existence was questioned.

At that time, some people in high-level circles firmly believed that the Magic Alliance was an "aliens from the sea of ​​​​boundary". With their support, magical girls were in a trend of becoming like the witches in medieval Europe.

But it is undeniable that magical girls are indeed the main force in fighting against dimensional beasts.

With this ability, the Magic Alliance has also gained a firm foothold in the human world and is generally recognized by the public.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is the magical girl who is recognized, not the Magic Alliance.

Including Luo You, everyone has long been skeptical of the Magic Alliance.

Therefore, the Magic Alliance's suspicion ranked second in her mind.

"Well...."

Zhou Xi moved his arms, it seemed that the discomfort in his shoulder blades affected his whole body.

Luo You took a look and thought, isn’t this the opportunity?

Two days ago, she tied Zhou Xi's arms behind her back with hemp rope and hung them up for a whole night. It must be sore there.

"About the apology just now." Luo You approached her proactively and said, "Let me give you a massage."
