Get off work and become a magical girl

Chapter 22 Companionship and Trust

Delphinium finished pouring the hot water and returned to the living room with several teacups, just in time to see Xia Liang in a bathrobe coming out from the direction of the bathroom.

"Found it in the kitchen."

To prevent the other party from misunderstanding, she explained in this way, and put the brewed tea on the coffee table.

Putting down the cup, pushing the cup, sitting back on the sofa, and picking up the tea, the delphinium was silent for a while, and then said lightly:

"Why did you run away from home?"

When she asked this question, she didn't go to see Xia Liang, just because she didn't want to bring too much pressure to the other party.

Although it was just out of intuition, she could feel that there might be many secrets hidden in Xia Liang's heart.

"Ahaha, this...can you let me get away with it?"

Facing this question, Xia Liang's voice sounded a little dry, and the tone of his answer was somewhat tentative.

Delphinium raised her eyebrows slightly: "What is the saying used to confuse?"

"Let's think about it... How about a normal quarrel with family members?" Xia Liang looked around, smiled and raised her right index finger.

"Sounds like the real thing."

Delphinium was noncommittal, sipped lightly from the edge of the teacup, and then said, "Did you say the same to Bai Mei?"

"Xiaolu hasn't asked me yet."

Xia Liang shook her head, looking slightly disappointed: "I didn't know anything, so I easily agreed to my coming to her house. I had prepared a lot of interesting reasons."

"Although that child doesn't admit it, she is indeed a bit stubborn. Don't bully her too much."

Delphinium put down her teacup, looked sideways at Xia Liang: "However, the name 'Xiaolu'...has she told you her real name?"

"Huh? I said it when we first met."

Xia Liang went in without knowing it, but heard another meaning from the delphinium's tone: "Is there any problem?"

"Yes, when you appear in public as a magical girl, you usually call each other by code name."

Delphinium lowered her eyelids: "I am Delphinium, you are Xiaojin, and Lin Xiaolu is Baimei. When you transform into a magical girl, your code name will be your name."

"This is not only the case when there are enemies and strangers. Even among magical girls, revealing their real names and real identities to each other is something that can only be done after mutual trust."

"Don't easily expose your vulnerable side to people you don't trust unless you are strong enough."

At this point, Delphinium raised her eyes and folded her hands: "So during the transformation, I will always call your code names. This is not only because I only told you the code names, and the relationship needs to be equal; it is also because this is a good way. habit."

Xia Liang nodded as if realizing something, then clapped her hands suddenly: "Can I apply to change my magical girl codename to 'Xia Liang' now?"

"Don't ask stupid questions."

"Then I already told Xiaolu my name, what should I do?"

"Nothing to do."

Delphinium sighed: "Between companions in the same city, real names are always mentioned. It's just that when you leave Fangting City in the future, you will meet magical girls who are not your companions. At that time, you must pay attention to this point."

"Companion?"

Saying this word in his mouth, Xia Liang's eyes flickered slightly, then he narrowed his eyes, lowered his head, and wrapped the bathrobe tightly around his body: "Then, am I fooling around with my companions now?"

"Forget it?"

Delphinium, who didn't notice Xia Liang's small movements, or pretended not to care, stood up and patted her skirt: "Being vigilant against enemies and strangers, and trusting your companions as much as possible is the course of action for magical girls. "

"Baimei is a heartless child. She will believe you; I know you will be a good child, and I am willing to believe you. If you don't want to say something, no one will force you to ask."

"So, when you feel you trust us enough, speak your mind."

After all, every magical girl in the material world has more or less inner confusion.

She didn't say this sentence.

"Little senior..."

Walking out of the subtle depression, Xia Liang raised his head, as if he was slightly touched.

She opened her mouth slowly, as if she wanted to say something, she pursed her lips again, hesitated, and opened her red lips again——

——"I've finished washing, I've been waiting for a long time, you can go in..."

Xia Liang's words were interrupted by a carefree voice.I saw Lin Xiaolu wearing home clothes, with a towel hanging around her neck, walking towards the bathroom with steam in her whole body.

Halfway through her speech, she came to the living room, looked at the two people sitting in the living room, met their slightly strange gazes, couldn't help but stop her original words, and opened her eyes wide: "What's wrong? What were you talking about just now?" What? The atmosphere feels a bit strange..."

Delphinium glanced at Xia Liang, and found that Xia Liang also cast her gaze over.The two looked at each other for a moment, one closed his eyes, and the other smiled helplessly.

The previous conversation seemed impossible to continue.

"Simple chat, nothing to say."

Delphinium prevaricates Lin Xiaolu's question casually, takes a sip of water from the tea cup, puts down the cup, and walks towards the balcony:
"Then, since your side has settled down, I'll go first, and there are other things."

She really couldn't stay longer, after all, she was just taking advantage of her lunch break for a walk, and she still had work in the afternoon.Right now, it has been delayed for more than an hour due to an accident, and if I don't go back, I'm afraid it will cause trouble.

"Hey, I'm leaving now? Delphinium, why don't you stay a little longer."

Hearing that Delphinium was leaving, Lin Xiaolu subconsciously wanted to keep her, looking away, trying to find some reason to keep her.In the end, the search was fruitless, but he glanced at the cups of hot tea on the table: "...the water over there?"

"I can't stay alone, I found it from the kitchen."

Delphinium kept walking, walked straight to the edge of the balcony, and looked back at the living room: "I'm thirsty, so I made tea on my own, but the water is a bit hot, remember to cool it down for a while before drinking."

"See you tomorrow," she said finally.

After speaking, without stopping, he jumped from the railing and disappeared into the air with a stream of azure blue magic power.

Lin Xiaolu and Xia Liang were left looking at the empty balcony.

"Mrs……"

After the delphinium left, Lin Xiaolu stood there, frowning, her eyes straightened, and she muttered something.

"I actually feel nothing?"

Guessing that she was dissatisfied because the delphinium left in a hurry, Xia Liang smiled and waved her hands, trying to smooth things over and said: "Young senior usually speaks directly, so it should be really busy, not an excuse to shirk, No need to be mad at her, right?"

"...so handsome."

"what?"

"It's so handsome!" Lin Xiaolu raised her face, her eyes twinkling with stars.

"Huh?" After hearing what Lin Xiaolu was saying clearly, Xia Liang was stunned.

"Did you see it? Did you see it too?"

Contrary to her usual attitude of rejecting Xia Liang, Lin Xiaolu pointed to the balcony, as enthusiastic as a missionary from somewhere, and gestured with both hands: "Did you see it? That's the one, jumping off the high platform while talking, Then raised a burst of magic power and flew away directly, don’t you think senior Delphinium’s moves are super cool? I want to learn too!”

"Hmm...probably?"

Looking at Lin Xiaolu who was excited by the strange things, Xia Liang smiled along with her face, but at the same time recalled in her heart what delphinium said just now:

My head is a muscle, it seems to be true?
