Idol Culture Really Does a Lot of Harm
Cong Yu asked this, and he smiled, reminding her, "Then you wouldn't need to come to me; the police would definitely ask the Wind City Magical Girl Agency for help."
After all, the principal was undoubtedly responsible for the student's disappearance before the police arrived, but the police had already arrived and cordoned off the scene.
Therefore, the responsible party is clearly the police.
This is what it means to shift blame! And the art of shifting blame is an important modern skill—it's an art! The art of surviving in the workplace!
Don't underestimate the power of shifting blame, lol!
Ah, that makes sense!
The principal responded in this way.
--
"Oh? That's quite a coincidence. We were also planning to investigate this matter... Oh, okay, I'll tell you the details later."
Yaochuan Guang hung up the phone, then looked at Lantian Zhu and Xiao Cui, who had met up with Cong Yu at the school. "My manager just called and said that the agency asked us to investigate the library of Wind City High School."
Cong Yu: "..."
Very good, the art of shifting blame is too good... Damn, I almost forgot about that.
The police sought help from the agency, and then the Wind City Magical Girl Agency ordered the manager of the serious team to investigate.
What could the agent do? He was just a poor agent.
There was no other way but to notify the magical girl squad under my command.
Magical Girl Squad - Yaochuan Guang and Lantian Zhu.
"..." Shifting blame, shifting blame, art, art... Now that I've shifted the blame onto myself, it doesn't feel artistic at all!
As Cong Yu was thinking this, Xiao Cui Cong Yu his pained expression and asked curiously, "Brother Cong Yu, what's wrong?"
Cong Yu: "..."
No, it's nothing.
With a sigh on her face, Cong Yu gazed sadly into the distance and uttered something cryptic. "This may be my destiny."
Xiao Cui blinked at Cong Yu, not understanding what was wrong with her brother Cong Yu... Hmm, was it chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)?
Lantian Zhu looked at Cong Yu with some confusion.
"No matter what, let's go! To the library!"
Yaochuan Guang happily led the way towards the library, saying, "I looked it up yesterday and found something interesting!"
As he said this, Yaochuan Guang walked along, took out his phone, and said, "It's the Wind City's Ten Mysteries!"
Upon hearing this, Lantian Zhu's body trembled instantly.
This made Xiao Cui glance at her sideways.
However, Yaochuan Guang didn't notice this, and instead said, "The eighth ghost story is about a forbidden book in the library of Wind City High School..."
Legend has it that a female senior was murdered by her ex-boyfriend while reading a book. The blood spurting from her neck splattered onto the book, and from then on, the book became the vessel for that senior's vengeful spirit!
"After that, if anyone came to the school library late at night, they would feel a chilling wind, and then something would come from behind..."
"..." Lantian Zhu: Shaking, shaking, shaking--
For some reason, Lantian Zhu had started trembling. Xiao Cui curiously poked Lantian Zhu's butt.
Shock!
Lantian Zhu was startled.
"..." Hehehe, this is fun--
Xiao Cui's eyes sparkled as she asked Lantian Zhu curiously, "Sister Blue Sky, are you afraid of ghost stories?"
Lantian Zhu tried to remain calm in response.
I'm not afraid of ghosts.
Lantian Zhu said this with a serious expression, "There are no ghosts in this world... yeah, definitely not."
They're already hypnotizing themselves, and they still say they're not afraid?
"Hmm..."
Under Xiao Cui's scrutinizing gaze, Lantian Zhu couldn't hold back any longer. Her usually calm face showed a slight glint in her eyes as she gestured with her hand. "Okay, just a little bit."
Lantian Zhu's voice was a little weak. She stretched out her hand and made a "pinch" gesture with her index finger and thumb.
This gesture looks familiar.
"..." Yaochuan Guang recalled for a moment, then tilted her head cutely when she remembered. "I remember, Little Lan, you also said before that you were only afraid of a few cockroaches, right?"
Yes, it turned out that Lantian Zhu was actually terrified of cockroaches, and jumped onto the bed screaming.
Finally, his legs gave way and he could only stand up by holding onto Cong Yu.
"Hmm... I'm a little scared too."
Lantian Zhu answered, then paused, and reluctantly admitted, "A little more afraid than cockroaches, a little less afraid than snakes."
Isn't that just the edge of falling into a coma?!
Also, you really are afraid of snakes!
Nozuchi, you are so powerful.
Chapter 211 Idol Culture is Truly Harmful
In fact, the content of the Wind City's Ten Mysteries varies greatly... except for the first few, which can be found on almost every website.
The remaining ones almost all have their own versions...
Take "The Forbidden Book" as an example... Some say it's a book from Wind City High School, some say it's a book from the library of the Wind City Private Sakura Girls' Academy, some say it's from Wind City Library, and some say it's from Wind City Elementary School.
Well, that last version of events was what the police got from the pervert after arresting him for sneaking into Wind City Elementary School at night.
The reasons for the creation of books are varied, such as "crimes of passion" or "poor exam results in Zisha teapots".
Some accounts don't mention where the book came from, only saying something like "on the bookshelf in the fourth row and fourth column."
"So... so, I feel that the Wind City's Ten Mysteries' and such have very low credibility... cough"
"Yes, very low."
If Lantian Zhu had said this in a less trembling voice and without stuttering, it might have been more convincing.
Thinking this, Cong Yu looked at Lantian Zhu, Yao Yaochuan Guang, and Xiao Cui, who had already transformed, and at her own arm, which was being held tightly by Lantian Zhu.
Touching Lantian Zhu's gorgeous battle dress felt a little unsettling.
Although her arms were wrapped around Cong Yu's chest, Cong Yu felt not a trace of warmth or softness...
On the contrary, it feels like being scrubbed on a washboard!
Although Yaochuan Guang doesn't have much of a figure, at least he's not flatter than Lantian Zhu... He's just really malnourished and should eat more.
So normally, if Yaochuan Guang cooks a little late, Lantian Zhu will start complaining of hunger in no time, because she doesn't have any stored fat!
The case is solved! The case is solved!
Cong Yu: "..."
Lantian Zhu: "..."
After a moment of silence, Xiao Cui suddenly spoke up, "I have a feeling that Brother Cong Yu's eyes are full of disdain."
"..." What a perceptive child!
"No... I actually think Lantian Zhu makes a lot of sense."
Cong Yu said this, pretending to be nonchalant, and explained, " Of the Wind City's Ten Mysteries, as far as I know, many of them are fake."
Many of them are counterfeit...
Many of them are counterfeit...
They're all fake... fake...
Having extracted the keywords, Yaochuan Guang's eyes lit up instantly, while Lantian Zhu's pupils immediately contracted. "So, quite a few of them are true?!"
Cong Yu: "..."
Cong Yu didn't mean it that way. He shook his hand dismissively and pulled his arm out of Lantian Zhu's embrace. "Yes, but it's not all supernatural. A lot of it is just visual illusion or something like that."
It just so happened that it was witnessed and then posted online.
Besides, there are many Cong Yu is unsure whether to believe or not... such as this library thing.
Yaochuan Guang instantly lost interest, while Lantian Zhu felt relieved.
As they spoke, the four of them arrived at the library entrance... where a dense defensive line had now been set up.
The police were speechless.
After all, yesterday after get off work, some students came here to explore and then went missing.
They're helpless about this too...
Therefore, the police in Wind City were forced to work overtime here, taking turns patrolling and guarding the area overnight to prevent similar incidents from happening again.
However, this is actually a rare opportunity to work overtime, and there's even overtime pay.
This is much better than other big cities, like the Earth City or the Tree Cities, where the police are much busier.
Every day I'm cleaning up the messes of weirdos and magical girls.
I've heard that some cities don't even have Emergency Response Office, so even the work of damage statistics has to be handled by the police stations in each region.
This is truly terrifying; even the Wind City be better.
With this in mind, the policeman at the gate chatted idly, not really checking anything, and then he saw Cong Yu and her group arrive.
"Four people! Ahead lies..."
The policeman was halfway through his sentence when the officer next to him suddenly became excited. "Oh my god! Magical Girl Shining☆Chan! Magical Girl Blue Sky ☆Chan!!! Oh my god! We've met the real person!!"
The policeman was beaming with excitement, his face practically glowing with fervor. "Ah! I'm a huge fan of yours! I've been right at the scene of monster attacks several times! I was the one shouting 'Kira! Kira!' the loudest!"
Oh, it's you, kid!!!
You're always the noisiest, yelling so loudly in the middle of the night!
Cong Yu... was furious!
Before moving into the home of Yaochuan Guang and Lantian Zhu, he had witnessed Yaochuan Guang's battles several times... just for fun.
His conclusion was that the magical girls of Wind City were indeed no good.
Back then, he could often hear cheers and shouts of "Kira! Kira!", as if it were some giant rare Pokémon!
The speaker! The speaker!
"..."
"Hey, don't do that, be mindful of the impact."
Another policeman immediately pulled him back to his original position, then looked apologetically at the four men. "Sorry, this guy might... haha, anyway, that's just the kind of guy he is."
To this, Yaochuan Guang smiled at her fans and confidently introduced herself—"That's right! I am Magical Girl Shining☆-chan! My companions and I are here to investigate the disappearance case at Wind City High School Library!"
The policeman nodded, stepped aside, and asked with some confusion, "So, may I ask who this young man is?"
The police could tell the little girl was a magical girl, but this guy... he couldn't possibly be a magical girl, could he?
Or is it actually a man dressed as a woman?
Thinking about it, the policeman pondered Cong Yu's long hair and delicate features... and felt that it wasn't impossible.
Before Yaochuan Guang could explain anything, the police officer who was a fan of the Wind City Squad (that is, the Yaochuan Guang and Lantian Zhu Squad) immediately spoke up, "I know!"
Huh? You know?
Now, not only the policeman, but also Cong Yu and the others looked over curiously... unsure why he...
You will know.
"This child must be a reserve magical girl for the Wind City Squad, selected from among the magical girl trainees."
