Speak of the Devil, and His Tail Shows / Bumping into the Immortal Leader in Mingyue City, Emotions Break Their Limits

With this thought in mind, Cong Yu sighed, placed the instant noodle cup into the void, and then began to seriously consider whether to use someone she knew.

Little did she know that this action would bring Miss Lin yet another shock... because it seemed far too convenient.

As Miss Lin was thinking this, she prepared to pick up the instant noodle cup and pour out the soup... and then she immediately saw a snake's head sticking out in front of her.

The snake's mouth was wide open.

Miss Lin paused for a moment, looked at Cong Yu, and saw Cong Yu nod casually... Indeed, it really is convenient.

After these reflections, she composed herself and, together with Cong Yu, got back into work mode.

The two of them are filling in for me today. For now, Xian Kui hasn't been able to organize the manpower, determine who they need to recruit, or set the recruitment criteria.

The hiring standards for magical girls and monsters definitely need to be relaxed.

Otherwise, just the "Education Level: Bachelor's Degree" requirement alone would be enough to filter out 80% to 90% of the candidates.

After that, neither of them said they would come again.

The job itself was alright, but it triggered a kind of aversion to stupidity... The applicants were just too incompetent.

"Next interviewee, please come in."

Cong Yu spoke these words towards the door, and then the person who had been left waiting by the two for a long time immediately pushed the door open and walked in...

She was a high school girl dressed in office lady attire, putting on airs.

The young woman, a JK (high school girl), saw Cong Yu and Miss Lin and was immediately surprised. "Eh? Cong Yu, are you personally doing HR?"

Yes, it's someone I know... You even know the HR person! You've already won by a huge margin over the other applicants, Zongzheng Ximei!

"What brings you to China?"

Cong Yu asked casually, taking Zongzheng Ximei's resume... but felt there was no need to look at it.

She even knows to bring a resume when applying for a job! Zongzheng Ximei!

You passed!

Chapter 696 The Horse's Leak Revealed

Zongzheng Ximei is just an ordinary, innocent high school girl who has almost no contact with her family and may have organized small bicycle gatherings at most.

At first glance, she doesn't seem capable of handling such an important position as a "coordinating consultant." But upon closer examination, she's actually full of merits.

The word "ordinary" means that she is not special, or at least she doesn't think she is special. She even likes this ordinariness.

It's all her mother's fault.

"Innocent" means she has no opinions about humans or magical girls. She might be slightly biased towards monsters, but it's not a big problem.

She becomes neutral as soon as she comes into contact with most of the Monster Group... Everything is relative.

This confidence was not directed at Zongzheng Ximei, but at the other groups.

The "JK" designation indicates that she at least graduated from junior high school, received some high school education, and was probably a good student.

Rather than a cute little social butterfly raised under a "happy education" system.

"She organized a cycling rally," although she was forced to say so by her mother, but at least it shows that she has experience in organizing events.

Win, win, win... Her resume is filled with nothing but wins.

"Given the choice between two mediocre options, Zongzheng Ximei is indeed a good choice... Don't think I'm being nepotistic."

"Besides, I feel that the weirdos and magical girls I know are all pretty normal, so they should be considered quite good candidates..."

"By then, it's possible that everyone in the organization will be my friend. But that certainly won't be because I used my connections everywhere..."

"Absolutely not, it can't be!"

Miss Lin glanced at Cong Yu helplessly at his explanation, not feeling that he needed to explain anything further.

I don't think anyone would care about something like this.

Why would you hesitate in such a lovely place?

"Okay, okay..."

Miss Lin, who inexplicably found Cong Yu somewhat adorable, said this while comforting him and packing her things to leave work.

Although it wasn't yet time to leave work, there weren't many job applicants outside, so she and Cong Yu decided to take a break.

Since there's no salary anyway, we might as well just accept it!

With this in mind, and being a naturally relaxed China person who is resistant to capitalism, Miss Lin adopted a "let's slack off!" attitude...

Cong Yu, who was naturally lazy and carefree because he was a Federation citizen, was a perfect match for Cong Yu.

The two decided on the spot to skip work and leave early.

Just leave the doorman to keep an eye on things...

"Let's go, I'm going to buy drinks... Do you want to come along?"

Cong Yu asked this, and Miss Lin didn't seem to mind. "Sure, I just had some free time."

As she said this, Miss Lin put her hands in her hoodie pockets, and she and Cong Yu walked down the street like casual vagrants.

"You've just had some free time... So what have you been busy with lately?"

Cong Yu was curious about this because he had been idle for two weeks and hadn't done anything serious.

Basically, they either spend their time at home being lovey-dovey, playing games and watching TV; or they go out to do serious business with Xian Kui.

However, Cong Yu wasn't ashamed at all. After all, it was summer vacation, and this was something students should do during summer vacation!

(Students: You're talking nonsense!)

"While observing the still active followers of Moerae and making some attempts... Moerae has remained completely silent during this time."

As she said this, Miss Lin patted her pockets to make sure she remembered having her wallet with her. "Moerae, we haven't talked much."

Wait... I forgot my wallet.

Oh well, it doesn't really matter anyway.

After Nagashima Koki confirmed his name and date of birth, Moerae had not spoken again.

This doesn't fit Moerae's previous "I'm going to interrupt with a riddle" or "[humble human!]" personality.

Overall, Moerae has been quite quiet.

The silence made Miss Lin feel a sense of danger, but she couldn't find the source, so she was slightly worried.

"So, do you have any clues?"

Cong Yu said this with a sense of helplessness... After all, in this regard, they were completely in a passive position.

It's no exaggeration to say that if Moerae hadn't been so talkative and leaked information so easily... then we might not be able to confirm Moerae's identity and some other information right now.

They might only have a superficial understanding.

In other words... the enemy is in the dark while we are in the light.

This is not a good sign.

"I have no idea what kind of trouble Moerae is up to..."

As she spoke, sighing, Miss Lin shook her head. "Perhaps, she simply understood the saying 'the more you say, the more mistakes you make.'"

That would be perfect.

Thinking this, Cong Yu bought a bottle of Coke... She had been drinking snake water with Xiao Cui again recently, and although she had gotten used to it, it didn't seem so bad anymore, and it wasn't as disgusting as the first time.

But if you're already out buying drinks, drinking snake water is really too much to handle.

It's better to rinse your mouth with some cola.

Thinking this, Cong Yu "plop" opened the can of cola, then looked at Miss Lin was casually standing to the side.

"..."

"..." Cong Yu: "How could you..."

Miss Lin: "I didn't bring my wallet."

Cong Yu: "Then I..."

Miss Lin: "Coke is fine, thank you."

"..." Okay, what can I say?

Cong Yu, whose prediction had been completely anticipated, shrugged, bought another can of Coke, and casually tossed it to Miss Lin.

"..."

"Sigh, the Age of Gods... I wonder when the concentration of magic power will officially return to the standards of the Age of Gods."

As she spoke, Cong Yu rested her chin on her hand and said, "At that time, Moerae will probably descend... Then you will use your body to become a god, and then destroy humanity to end the predetermined cycle."

Miss Lin responded coldly to Cong Yu's words.

Although what Cong Yu said was something Miss Lin already knew, it was still somewhat upsetting to have it said out loud.

It has nothing to do with whether she lives or dies; she stopped caring about that a long time ago.

However, she didn't want Moerae's plan to go too smoothly...

"Isn't there any way to stop it?"

Miss Lin said this with a stern face, "Quickly use your invincible wisdom to think of a solution!"

Cong Yu doesn't possess any invincible wisdom.

From beginning to end, Cong Yu's wisdom was ultimately only "small wisdom," and he himself was very clear about this.

He simply had the appearance of being quite intelligent and in control of everything, and his vision was indeed much broader than that of people of this era.

That's why everyone considers him to be an extremely intelligent person.

In most cases, his conclusions and judgments are simply based on his experience and knowledge... nothing more.

Thinking this to himself with self-mockery, Cong Yu shook his head, still holding the same view. "We're too passive. We can only find out more information when Moerae makes a mistake himself..."

The instant after Cong Yu finished speaking...

"Buzz--"

Accompanied by the strange noise in the distance, Cong Yu and Miss Lin simultaneously turned their attention in that direction.

That's the location of the Bright Moon Immortal Sect's office, where the Xian Kui Leader usually works... and over there, there seem to be some furtive figures.

A semi-circular "cover," like a "barrier," began to gradually envelop the area.

That was the barrier of "Divine Punishment".

Just like in Mexico.

Chapter 697 An unexpected encounter with Xian Kui in Bright Moon City, Emotion Limit Break

Even a monster as strong as it is, fought to the bitter end...

Xian Kui felt her work was getting a bit boring... How should I put it? She felt she really needed Cong Yu right now.

Cong Yu had previously observed and assisted her with her clerical work for a period of time.

All I can say is...

Cong Yu's talent amazed her.

Although he didn't know much about some of the "procedures" and "rules," he wouldn't say anything.

However, Cong Yu seems to be very good at stepping outside of this part of the content, thinking about the intentions behind the information reported by various parties in some emergencies, and providing solutions.

Interestingly...

Cong Yu's solutions are generally quite simple and clear; in fact, he seems to offer the same solution for every different situation.

Kill!

It wasn't all killing; there were also arrests and investigations, but to summarize...

Cong Yu doesn't target a specific issue; instead, he directly addresses the person who caused the trouble or forced others to cause it.
