"Did you have a chat with them?"
"They asked about you."
Keke’s heart skipped a beat, and she clenched her hands. "What did they ask?"
"About your grades, your strength as a Magical Girl, and your relationships with those around you."
She thought for a mont; these were indeed things she might ask about, so it wasn’t really a lie.
Jiang Si always acted in an upright manner, never lying.
"How did you respond?"
"I answered normally," Jiang Si stood up. "Your grades are good, your strength is good, and your relationships are good. That’s all, if there’s nothing else, I’m going to sleep."
After saying this, he planned to go upstairs.
"My grades are thirty points higher than last ti."
Keke also stood up, raising her voice, "My strength has improved too. Captain Yin Lian said I’ll reach New Seedlings soon. I’ve beco good friends with her recently."
Jiang Si paused, turned back to look at her with a sowhat puzzled expression.
He picked up a cloth and casually wiped the table. With her head lowered, Keke said, "Next ti you et her, you can answer her like that."
"Oh."
There was no need to answer; he had already heard.
With this thought, he just stepped onto the stairs when Keke called after him again, "Wait, I have sothing else to ask you..."
"Say everything at once."
The air froze for a mont.
Keke withdrew her hand slightly. Although his words held no malice, the coldness still pricked her, "Will you be bringing Teacher Zi Yuan ho in the future?"
It was a difficult question to ask.
But it had to be asked; after all, as a couple, bringing your girlfriend ho was quite normal.
Even staying overnight is quite normal...
The air was so still that Keke felt ti had stopped, and she found the torturous wait rather long.
It felt like taking three back-to-back classes.
Until Jiang Si answered, "I won’t disturb you."
Keke’s expression was both expectant and conflicted, "If she does co, could you let know in advance?"
"I’ll try."
Watching Jiang Si go upstairs, Keke finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.
Although the relationship between Teacher Zi Yuan and Jiang Si made her feel uncomfortable and awkward.
Having more opportunities to see Teacher Zi Yuan in the future was also a good thing...
Amused by her own bittersweet thoughts, Keke lay her head on the table, lightly banging it against the surface.
No matter how Jiang Si and Zi Yuan’s relationship unfolds, she’ll first focus on getting close to Teacher Zi Yuan.
Maybe she can even teach her so magic power techniques, just like Senior Hyacinth did.
As for being banned from entering the Disaster Strategy Bureau due to Jiang Si and Zi Yuan’s relationship and having to act together with Captain Yin Lian, it wasn’t of much concern.
Just as she was daydreaming about how to ask Teacher Zi Yuan to teach her, her phone suddenly buzzed.
Glancing at it, it was a ssage from the Disaster Strategy Bureau.
"A large number of Disaster Beasts will appear tomorrow. All mbers, please prepare for battle."
She wanted to contact Captain Yin Lian to find out what was going on, but couldn’t get through.
She could only wait until tomorrow.
...
Bingtang watched the gradually dissipating Zi Yuan Puppet, face filled with regret.
Even though they had done their utmost to return the puppet, it was still a mont too late. By the ti they reached Cyan Cloud Sect, it couldn’t maintain its form.
Walking up to it, there was no ti for Bingtang to reach out before the Zi Yuan Puppet began to disintegrate into dust.
Who knows when the next puppet can be made...
"Lord Bingtang, we’ve received news from Susan."
Returning to her senses, Si Ye was looking at her with a serious expression, holding a mirror in her hands.
Susan needed to use their divination abilities to deliver intelligence.
"Didn’t Susan say the Disaster Strategy Bureau is strict right now?"
"I heard they’ve detected a large number of Disaster Beasts about to appear. It’s very busy and a bit chaotic inside the bureau. She finally got a chance to send out information."
Bingtang lightly furrowed her brows, "A large number of Disaster Beasts about to appear?"
"Yes." Si Ye’s little face was clouded with worry, "The Disaster Beast monitoring by the Disaster Strategy Bureau is a technology handed down from their headquarters. It has never been wrong. They even plan on abandoning the southern region, and the people from the bureau have already inford us in advance."
"Hmph, they say abandon, but they just an toss it to us to handle."
Bingtang wasn’t too surprised; the Disaster Strategy Bureau always operated like this. The understanding between them was tacit, "How many of the sect’s disciples are left in the south?"
"Three Budding ones and one New Seedling."
"It’s enough."
The disciples assigned by Cyan Cloud Sect to each area were in groups of four. Usually, a New Seedling would lead, but with fewer New Seedlings available, sotis a more capable Budding Magical Girl would lead.
"Have them stay alert, and let Yu Mo be ready to support at any ti."
"Understood."
Generally, the Disaster Strategy Bureau’s monitoring would issue a warning one day in advance, so the preparation ti was quite sufficient.
The appearance of a large number of Disaster Beasts was most likely related to the Witch Association.
Disaster Beasts arising naturally almost never appeared in such large numbers simultaneously.
So Bingtang was a bit worried about any unexpected occurrences, making it more prudent to have Yu Mo ready for support.
"Looks like the Witch Association can no longer hold back," Bingtang mused for a mont, "What about Yin Luo? Is Susan keeping an eye on her?"
"Susan returned first, but she didn’t know if Yin Luo went back later. However, Susan is already guarding near the safety room. The Miracle Seed is still in there. If Yin Luo were to act, she’d first go to the safety room and wouldn’t miss this, as it’s also the best way to find evidence of Yin Luo being a Witch Association mber."
"Good. This ti we must have her bring out the Miracle Seed. Tell Susan not to lose track."
After making the arrangents, Bingtang, as usual, sent the current plans and latest intelligence to Jiang Si.
Soon after, Bingtang suddenly thought of the Magic Girl Combat Team’s captain.
Yin Lian’s relationship with Keke has been quite good lately.
Feeling a tinge of regret for her, she hoped it wouldn’t implicate Keke.
After checking Jiang Si’s reply, she turned to look at Si Ye:
"Have Cyan Flower and the rest prepare. The Witch Association might also beco active tomorrow, and the Sect Leader has ordered not to let a single one escape."
"Understood."
