Get off work and become a magical girl

Chapter 111 Birthday Party

Back to a few hours ago, when Delphinium and Xia Liang had not yet returned, in the afternoon, Bai Jingxuan and Lin Xiaolu, who finished their lunch, started to decorate the living room.

About Xia Liang's birthday, they only learned about it from Delphinium.The task Delphinium gave them was to prepare a surprise for Xia Liang before the two came back.

After a simple lunch break, Lin Xiaolu took the initiative to choose to be in charge of the decoration of the living room, while Bai Jingxuan took advantage of the opportunity and went to the entrance, took out the colorful flags and lanterns that had been prepared, and hung them on the ceiling.

Because of their lack of height, both of them chose a very tricky method: directly transform into a magical girl, and use the flying ability of the magical girl to suspend in the air, so as to complete the related arrangements more easily.

Bai Jingxuan carefully arranged the hanging ornaments at the same intervals, and while she was slightly relieved, she glanced towards the living room and saw Lin Xiaolu's back who was also meticulously working, and couldn't help but fell into thought.

It has been more than a month since she joined the Fangting City team, and she still hasn't figured out the relationship between the three seniors in the team.

Her teacher—Senior Delphinium is the captain of the team, and indeed undertakes the responsibilities of a senior, guiding every magical girl in the team, and is a person that Bai Jingxuan feels is worthy of respect.

It's just that the relationship between myself and the teacher is just a simple teacher and student, but the relationship between the teacher and the other two seniors seems to be not that simple, and there is a side that I haven't been able to see.

As for the other two seniors, the relationship between Lin Xiaolu and Xia Liang made her even more confused.

Lin Xiaolu always seemed to be angry with Xia Liang, and Xia Liang was always deliberately provoking Lin Xiaolu. The two of them were always facing each other on the surface. As long as they were together, they always quarreled over some boring things. This state even made Bai Jingxuan think about it for a while. To be reconciled.

But when she got a little deeper understanding, she found that things seemed to be a little different from what she thought?

These two people seem to be targeting each other not because of pure hatred. Rather, although Bai Jingxuan doesn't understand it very well, their relationship doesn't seem to be as bad as it seems on the surface?

After all, if Lin Xiaolu really hated Xia Liang, wouldn't she happily prepare for her birthday like she is now?

——"After all, she is such a dishonest fellow."

A voice suddenly sounded in her ear.

Turning her face sideways, Bai Jingxuan saw a pink cat floating beside her, yawning.

"Ah, Moko, you're back!"

Just finished the work at hand, Bai Jingxuan landed from the sky, put on a faint smile, looked at Mo Ke and said, "How is today? Have you found a new magical girl?"

"No, no, no progress at all."

Flapping the wings on his back, Mo Ke hugged his paw helplessly: "It's really strange, since the previous incident, there have been fewer remnant beasts, and the preparatory magic girl has disappeared. Did it work?"

"Isn't it good to be peaceful like this now? Mo Ke, you don't really like fighting, do you?"

"No! I'm your sower. If there are no beasts and novices, what's the difference between me and a pet that lives in a human's house?"

"...can talk?"

"Xiaoxuan! How can a good boy like you say such vicious words!"

"Eh? But, Moko can indeed talk, is it different from ordinary pets?"

"I'm not a pet! Don't judge me by the standard of a pet!" Mo Ke couldn't help shouting in grief and indignation.

——"You two, don't chat there when you have time, come and help!"

Lin Xiaolu in the living room shouted angrily, "I haven't finished my work yet, so how can I have time for you to chat?"

"Sorry, sister Xiaolu, I'll be right over."

Bai Jingxuan quickly ran to the living room with her unused ornaments, then raised her head and asked Lin Xiaolu who was in the air, "Which way should I deal with?"

"Near the balcony."

Lin Xiaolu pointed casually, and then continued to deal with the work in her hand.

Bai Jingxuan didn't ask any more questions, and floated into the air again, following Lin Xiaolu to complete the rest of the decoration work.

Because it saves the time of climbing and moving with ladders like ordinary people, the efficiency of the two people is actually very high. It didn't take long to complete the scheduled task, and the entire first floor of the villa was dressed up as desired.

Cleaning up the remaining wrapping paper and decoration debris on the ground, looking around the living room

"Sister Xia Liang will be very happy to see this when she comes back, right?"

"Does she dare not be happy?"

Lin Xiaolu said angrily: "I spend so much time serving her, if she is not happy, I will turn my face."

"How could it be?" Bai Jingxuan shook her head, "Although I am not sister Xia Liang, if it were me..."

"You feel a little envious?" Lin Xiaolu asked, turning her face to the side.

"Ah? No, I didn't mean that, and I didn't want to bother you..." Bai Jingxuan, who had been exposed, waved her hands, trying to cover it up.

"No trouble, you'll have it too, by your birthday."

Lin Xiaolu glanced at Bai Jingxuan: "Now you can think about what kind of cake you want for your birthday."

"It's too early, my birthday is still a long time away!"

Bai Jingxuan subconsciously wanted to deny it, but she still couldn't help feeling fascinated: "However, birthday cake."

"It's not too early, is it? Think about what could be wrong?"

Lin Xiaolu snorted softly: "Just wait and see, everyone has their birthday anyway, when it's my birthday next year, I'm going to sit on the sofa and direct Xia Liang to work for me!"

"Is that right?"

Hearing this sentence, Bai Jingxuan blinked her eyes, and couldn't help saying bluntly: "Sister Xiaolu, you obviously always talk bad things about Sister Xia Liang, but actually you seem to have a good relationship with her?"

"Who has a good relationship with that guy?"

Lin Xiaolu said in an angry voice, "It's just that Delphinium asked me to do this, otherwise I wouldn't do such an unflattering thing."

——"She meant that if the Inspector didn't explain how to arrange it, she might celebrate Xia Liang's birthday in an ordinary way."

The thief Mo Ke on the side smiled and said, "Probably to the extent that after buying a cake, you will even sing the birthday song? If you knew earlier, there would be handmade gifts?"

"Don't misinterpret my meaning!" Lin Xiaolu looked at Mo Ke annoyedly, "I mean, I won't celebrate that guy's birthday!"

"Then you secretly bought gifts and hid them under your bed yesterday?"

"Huh? How do you know... No, what are you talking about!"

"I've seen it all! You specially hid from Xia Liang and brought it back!" Mo Ke pointed at Lin Xiaolu and said loudly.

"Nothing! It's just something I bought casually on the road!" Lin Xiaolu retorted loudly.

"So you still bought it!"

"Is it bothering you? I really hate it, you stupid Mo Ke!"

"I'm an idiot? Then what are you who can't even hide from an idiot? Big idiot Xiaolu!"

"Idiot Moko!"

"Big idiot Xiao Lu!"

This kind of unnecessary quarrel lasted for a long time, even if Bai Jingxuan tried to stop it, the two could only stop the scolding battle on the surface, and each sat on the side sullenly.

Until Xia Liang and Delphinium came back from outside, Lin Xiaolu and Mo Ke were still hurting each other one after another.

Of course, unpleasant emotions will not be brought into the birthday celebration process after all.

Accompanied by the ringing of the hand-held salute and the birthday wishes of the companions to Xia Liang, the birthday party that ended on this day, as the last and most lively ending, left unforgettable memories for everyone.

It was night, in the dark living room, everyone surrounded the birthday cake with candles, while singing a birthday song for Xia Liang, while waiting for Xia Liang to blow out the candles.

It was night, and in the brightly lit restaurant, the girls and fairies cut the cake together and tasted the sweetness. Those who celebrated their birthdays were one step closer to growing up.

It was night, and in the corridor at the top of the stairs, everyone took out their prepared birthday presents and handed them over to Xia Liang.

The gift Delphinium prepared was a brand new plush doll, because Xia Liang seemed to like to sleep with such a doll, so she specially prepared one that was not in her room.

The gift Bai Jingxuan prepared was a handmade greeting card, which she cut out of cardboard and handmade paper in the orphanage, and all the parts were made by herself.

Among the three, the latest gift prepared by Lin Xiaolu was a pair of earrings.

"Because I said you were flirtatious wearing these, so you took off your old pair and threw them away, right?"

She turned her face sideways, looked away, and put the small box into Xia Liang's hand: "That is to say... I won't apologize anyway, but I don't like to owe others, so I bought it when I saw it. please do not."

In this regard, Xia Liang covered her mouth at first, lost her voice for a while, and finally threw herself forward, hugging Lin Xiaolu tightly in her arms.

"What are you doing, you're so numb, let go!"

Being held in Xia Liang's arms, Lin Xiaolu struggled to grab her hand: "I said it was just a casual purchase, what are you touching yourself?"

"……thanks."

It was rare for Xia Liang to deliberately tease her anymore, but expressed her feelings to Lin Xiaolu in the most concise and simple language.

Her words were so straightforward that Lin Xiaolu couldn't find any excuse to refuse her thanks, so she could only cast her eyes for help to the other two at the side.

But neither delphinium nor Bai Jingxuan intended to intervene. Instead, they both looked at the two hugging each other with relief.

Xia Liang's birthday party came to an end in such a peaceful atmosphere

Of course, Mo Ke didn't prepare any gifts, but he ate the most cakes.

The celebration finally came to an end, and the dinner party finally ended. After the magical girls celebrated their birthdays together, they had to put away the decorations on the first floor, and Delphinium threw the garbage to the designated place.

Xia Liang and Lin Xiaolu had to go to school the next day, so they went to wash up, said good night to each other, and went back to their room to sleep.

Bai Jingxuan went to the basement alone again—she didn't need to go to school for the time being, and she put most of her energy into training, so hard that Delphinium had to watch her from the side to prevent her from causing damage to herself due to over-training .

In this way, the two of them stayed in the basement until it was close to eleven o'clock before they stopped because of Bai Jingxuan's sleepiness.Delphinium stopped the girl who was still yawning, and asked her to go to bed and rest.

Bai Jingxuan is a sensible and obedient child, so she obeyed Delphinium's request and went back to her room to sleep.

After closing the underground training room, Delphinium was the last to return to her bedroom.

Exhausted from a busy day, she sighed slightly, took off her coat, and was about to wash up before going to bed to rest.But just as she was about to unbutton her neckline, she saw the mirror on the bedside flickering slightly.

That was not an ordinary mirror, but a magic mirror brought to her by the Investigation Institute to communicate with the golden-green cat's eyes.

Flashing text on the mirror reminds Delphinium that she has a missed call request.

Frowning, she moved two steps toward the head of the bed. Delphinium picked up the magic mirror, tapped on the screen, and saw the specific source of the call—as expected, it was the Investigation Institute.

Jinlu Maoyan has something to look for?

With this kind of conjecture in her heart, based on the habit of long-term pain rather than short-term pain, and work that should not be procrastinated, Delphinium stretched out her hand, and several Favor runes fell from her fingertips and hit the surface of the magic mirror.

She chose to ask now.

The goblin dance on the screen didn't last long, and the screen flickered, and soon, a girl wearing a golden hard hat appeared on the screen, looking at the mirror with some seriousness.

Delphinium could recognize her, because this was the magical girl who was in charge of wiring for herself and passing the call to the golden-green cat's eyes last time.

"Master Inspector, hello, thank you for being willing to connect with us."

The girl on the opposite side of the magic mirror bowed slightly, then raised her head, and said in a solemn voice: "Please forgive us for disturbing you at this time. But now, in the southern part of Donghua Prefecture, which is the area where you are, something happened. It's something no one wants to see."

"What is it?"

Delphinium looked at the magic mirror expressionlessly: "Don't tell me, it's our lord dean's nonsense again?"

"...I'm sorry, but this time there is indeed a more serious incident"

The magic girl on the opposite side of the magic mirror bowed again, and then continued: "According to the contact channel of our investigation institute, and the information provided by the magic girl in Bo'an City near your city: I was sent to Donghua Prefecture before. The team that has been in contact with each other, the cattail team, they..."

"It disappeared in the southern part of Donghua State."
