Off Work, Then Transform into a Magical Girl

Chapter 35 – Subway Incident

"Mr. Lin Yun, an employee of the Bureau of Special Tactics, although already an extraordinary person compared to ordinary people, and even many people who have mastered magical powers as ordinary humans, but this level of power is nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a chariot for the kingdom."

"We need several people, even a dozen people with equipment to barely deal with the Brutal Beasts at the Egg level, but they are just ordinary prey for the Magical Girls."

"We put in a lot of effort, only to become a tool between the kingdom and the material world. We have to deal with the boring obstacles that the Magical Girls may encounter, and we have to balance between multiple forces and try to appease the emotions of the people. This is the true situation and true role of the Bureau of Special Tactics."

"We are just the kingdom's gloves, and the protection that gloves can provide is so fragile."

"So I can't promise you that we have the ability to protect your daughter. I just hope that you can believe that I will do my best to help her and her companions avoid potential dangers."

"I understand how you feel."

Lin Yun remembered Moss's words.

Even though there were only some details and questions and answers afterwards, a few days later, he would still occasionally think about the content of this conversation.

A simple conversation was not enough for him to judge Moss's position and thoughts, but the information she provided had to be taken seriously. It was not only about the kingdom and the "Claw Mark," but also about what she had experienced and her own matters.

"My daughter was also a Magical Girl before."

This sentence made him think about many things, both about the present and the future.

Moss said that she would find a suitable opportunity later to pass on the information she knew about the Claw Mark to Lin Xiaolu. She just hoped that Lin Yun could keep it a secret and not spread her comments about the Claw Mark and the Bureau of Special Tactics. She would also not reveal the conversation with Lin Yun to Lin Xiaolu.

"Miss Bai Mei seems to be unaware of her mother's situation. Based on the principle of mutual confidentiality, we have not disclosed it to her. You may have your own arrangements for this, but from what I can see, you should tell her the truth as soon as possible."

These were Moss's exact words at that time:

"Children always have to grow up, and a child who becomes a Magical Girl may grow up faster than you think."

A few days later, on the subway, Lin Yun looked at his phone.

There was a text message from Lin Xiaolu, with a very short content, only three words:

[Remember to come].

He leaned against the back of the seat, enjoying the rare moment of being able to sit on the subway, and replied with a slightly cheerful mood: [Definitely].

Time passed quickly. Since the day he sent his daughter to school and made a promise about the truth on the train, he could feel that Lin Xiaolu's attitude towards him had softened a little.

Although it was only a little, it had changed from being unwilling to communicate, mostly negative and resistant during communication, to occasionally having calm daily conversations. However, the fact that his relationship with his daughter could change was already a rare experience.

So today, facing the parent-teacher meeting he had mentioned before, he was fully prepared.

He held onto his Flower of the Heart, its light swirling.

A deep blue Magic Power radiated out, and Cui Que emerged from the brilliance of the magic. From the moment she appeared, the magic power gushing from behind her propelled her to fly after the subway.

She took out the now silent phone, pressed the redial button, and after a moment, the call was connected.

—"Cui Que, Mo Ke said there's a Brutal Beast attack in the direction of Luoming Line 4!"

Lin Xiaolu's voice came from the phone, her words rushed: "I'm still at school, it will take some time for me to get there, but I'll hurry. I'll send you the exact location soon, and Xia Liang, we should be there soon..."

"No need."

Cui Que interrupted her: "I'll be there soon, don't come."

"Why?" Lin Xiaolu asked.

"Didn't you guys mention before that there's a parent-teacher meeting at school today?"

"But..." Lin Xiaolu still wanted to argue.

"The Brutal Beast this time is a Caterpillar, don't come."

Cui Que quickened her speech, calmly replying amidst the howling wind: "I happen to be nearby, not far from the scene now, and I can see the Brutal Beast. Without a doubt, it would be dangerous for you guys to come. Leave this one to me."

"So focus on your own things, don't get distracted. If your parents arrive at school and find you're not there, it would be hard to explain, right?"

"Um..." Lin Xiaolu's reply was clearly hesitant.

"Then leave it to me, don't worry, I'm strong."

Saying this, Cui Que hung up the call.

The deep blue Magic Power chased after the subway, flying all the way. After a few brief accelerations, she surged forward a distance, and in just a few seconds, Cui Que caught up with the carriage where the Brutal Beast was.

At this moment, the Brutal Beast was frantically tearing at the carriage. The carriage under its claws was completely torn open, and passengers were being pulled out, screaming, and thrown into its mouth full of sharp teeth.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

Just as a young man was wailing, struggling to break free from its claws, the Brutal Beast's movement stopped. It was as if it had been hit by a legendary immobilization spell, bound by something. Its forearm was trembling, seemingly still exerting force, but it couldn't move an inch.

The brief calm gave the man a chance to catch his breath. In his fear, he opened his eyes, seeming to realize something, and looked towards the distance.

There, a girl in a dark blue dress was standing on top of the carriage, her blue hair fluttering in the wild wind under her hat. The rain couldn't hide her murderous expression:

"Can't you pick another time to die? Don't get in my way of attending a parent-teacher meeting, beast."
