Dead

Old Wei looked unwell today.

Because the Liberation Faction Harvester, who was imprisoned, died!

Originally, Old Wei wanted to obtain more information from the Humanoid Fallen Beast he captured yesterday, and then verify it with the Harvester to confirm its authenticity. However, he did not expect that the Harvester would die!

And it's not just the Harvester; everyone else does the same.

Relatively speaking, the Harvester is more important, after all, he has a higher status and can know more about the subsequent arrangements for the Liberation Faction.

Even if it's just a guess.

But now, he's dead!

Yesterday, the Association's monitoring showed everything was normal... Staff left work in an orderly manner after hours, while those who needed to work overtime did so.

He went back to his office, and the Branch Director went home.

After the four Magical Girl living in the Association returned to their dormitory, they didn't go out again... They had no reason to go to the Detention Department to kill the Harvester, since Old Wei had told them his thoughts.

To say you have a grudge against the Harvester...

It would be normal for Thousand Blades and Ai to secretly kill him.

But it wasn't just the surveillance cameras! Even the people in the Detention Department yesterday didn't notice anything unusual!

This is a bit too outrageous!

It's important to know that the members of the Detention Department within the Association have all been enhanced by the Association's Branch's Magic Source. Their physical attributes and mental strength have reached levels approaching those of Fluorescent Rank Magical Girl. Coupled with their large numbers, even second-rank enemies would not get the slightest advantage if they broke in.

Inside the prison cell.

The man in the Gray Suit clearly showed a hint of relief on his face.

As for his men, although their faces showed resentment, they were indeed dead, without a single external injury and their internal organs were completely intact.

He simply died.

There weren't even any signs of death.

It was as if she was asleep; if Old Wei hadn't come this morning, we wouldn't have noticed at all.

"Was it the Liberation Faction who did it? To silence them?"

That's all Old Wei could guess.

Beside him, the Masked Heroine's expression was also extremely serious.

"It seems the Liberation Faction are serious this time... To be able to infiltrate the Association Branch silently and kill an important prisoner inside... that's at least Fourth Rank."

There is evidence to support the claim that the Masked Heroine man is guilty.

Because just recently, someone had successfully infiltrated the Branch.

Magical Girl Ai.

Before the Knight's concert, she made a special trip to the Branch's training room to encourage Knight, hoping they could put on a good show.

That time, the Branch also failed to detect any abnormalities.

Should we call Love over and ask her?

Celestial Star asked Old Wei a question.

Although she didn't think Ai would do such a thing at all... after all, Ai had always acted quite openly and honestly since she appeared, and would never stoop to doing such a thing.

After hesitating for a moment, Old Wei shook his head.

While love might provide a motive for killing the Harvester, she probably wouldn't do it...

"Is it an ability like invisibility?"

The Ranger was somewhat unable to bear looking at the corpses of his dead subordinates.

After all, most of the beasts she usually faces are Fallen Beast, which turn into smoke and disappear after being defeated... She wouldn't even get to see the corpses of the slightly higher-level, solid ones.

It was already reduced to dust.

"There's a certain possibility..."

Celestial Star was writing down in his notebook the types of abilities that could allow him to infiltrate the Branch undetected.

"Why don't we just call Ai over directly? It's not that we suspect she killed him, but her Magic Power is more powerful, and she should be able to discover things we can't."

After hesitating for a moment, Old Wei finally agreed.

By the second day after Yang Cheng arrived at school, her classmates had already accepted the fact that Yang Chen had transferred schools.

"Miss Yang... Waaah... It's such a pity she never got a proper farewell... Waaah..."

In the back corner of the classroom, a black-and-white photo of Yang Chen, taken from a previous class group photo, was placed on the ground, next to flowers and snacks.

My deskmate, his eyes red-rimmed, was pouring out his longing to the black-and-white photograph.

However, Yang Cheng just wanted to kick him right now.

What the hell are you doing?

In the story, he just transferred schools, he didn't die! What are you doing?!

And what about everyone else in line behind him! Why are you following his nonsense?

As a new transfer student, Yang Cheng obviously couldn't comment on this kind of class culture behavior, so she could only sullenly lie on her desk.

Chen Qianqian laughed until her stomach hurt.

Miss Friend came to Chen Qianqian's side.

"Speaking of Qianqian... Yang Chen is gone, aren't you even a little bit sad?"

Chen Qianqian was stunned for a moment.

"Why be sad? He's not dead, he just transferred schools. It's not like we'll never see each other again."

"Really?"

Miss Friend tapped her chin with her finger and sat down on the table.

"How about we organize a class trip to visit him sometime? After all, he helped us a lot in class before... Although we don't know why he transferred away, we can't let our friendship end like this!"

Upon hearing her friend's suggestion, Chen Qianqian suddenly panicked.

Visit?

What's the point of visiting him? This "Yang Chen" person is long gone.

Are we supposed to agree now, and then tell the classmates on the day of the visit that "Yang Chen" died in a car accident?

"Hey~ Aren't you going to say anything~"

"Could it be... that our little Qianqian wants to monopolize Miss Yang?"

"I!"

Chen Qianqian blushed instantly, wanting to retort.

Then I realized... there doesn't seem to be anything to refute. Isn't what my friend said right? She really does want to have Yang Cheng all to herself... No, no, no!

Given their relationship, this is normal, isn't it?

Does anyone still want to share?

I'm ignoring you!

In the end, Chen Qianqian decided to get a little angry and scare her friend.

Sure enough, seeing Chen Qianqian turn her head to the side, her friend offered her a bottle of milk in a flattering manner.

"I'm sorry, Qianqian, I was wrong~"

"But... aren't you worried? Yang Chen used to receive love letters from both boys and girls, you know. What if someone gets upset about that and secretly tries to find out about Yang Chen and ends up finding him? What will you do then?"

Seeing that her friend was genuinely worried about her, Chen Qianqian accepted the milk.

But she tilted her head back slightly, looking rather smug.

Find Yang Cheng? That's impossible!

Besides, they're already officially a couple! They're already inseparable and incredibly close! No one can affect their relationship!

"Alright, class is starting... Hey student? Are you in this class? You look a little unfamiliar."

The teacher entered and began to restore order.

My friend gave me an apologetic look.

"Excuse me, teacher, I need to talk to Qianqian about something... I've finished talking, I'll leave now."
