Chapter 1183 The Rumor Keeper (A lot of people come to this place during the holidays)
“Although I say I’m looking for him, the Shenjing District is so big, can we just find him?”
?Standing on the top of the tall building, looking at the densely packed buildings in front of him, Huan Caiyu asked uneasily. Although it is just a district, the permanent population here is hundreds of thousands, not to mention that it is mainly a residential area and a commercial area, so the area is also very large. To be honest, Huan Caiyu thinks it will be difficult to rely on just a few of them. They found the target in a short time - by the way, they had just visited the place where Huan Iroha met the uncle before, and sure enough, there was no one there.
“If you can’t find them, just add more people. It’s not a big hassle.”
Duanmu Huai is very calm about this.
“Manpower? Do you want to send someone?”
“No, I have a better choice.”
As he spoke, Duanmu Huai stretched out his hand, and then saw a flash of light between his fingers.
【Chant: Prayer of Silver Wings】
【Chant: True Winged Hourglass】
【Chant: Wings of Divine Iron】
【Chant: The Feast of the Snake God】
【Chant: Flute of the Divine Bird】
【Chant: Soul-Purifying Fox】
Immediately afterwards, the magical girls saw a scene that surprised them.
————!!”
?The first thing that appeared was a groan, and then before the girls could react, a huge white falcon fell from the sky and landed obediently on Duanmu Huai''s arm. But this was not the end. The next moment, a fat owl with a crystal hourglass hanging on its chest also emerged from the other side with a "coo, coo, coo" cry.
After that, a giant metal bird made of steel, a huge white snake, a magnificent divine falcon, and a pure white fox with nine tails appeared one after another, surrounding everyone.
“Hey, hey, hey? What is this?”
Seeing this scene, the girls were all shocked and looked at the magical creatures that came from nowhere. Duanmuhuai just stared at the summoned object in front of him, and then issued the order.
“Go find our target and notify me immediately if you find it.”
————!
?Hearing Duanmuhuai''s order, the birds and beasts nodded quickly, and then either flew to the sky or dived into the dark shadows, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
“So awesome……”
?Looking blankly at the magical summons that disappeared, Huan Iroyu couldn''t help but sigh. Even Nanami Yachiyo, Akatsuki Homura and others also showed unimaginable looks. After all, the scene just now was so dreamy that they all felt like they were dreaming.
“So awesome!”
Thousands of voices broke the dreamlike tranquility.
“My little hobby is great, just like the princess of Disney!”
"Yeah?"
“Yes, those animals appeared when they heard your call. It’s just like the plot of an animated movie, and those animals are so cute. Ah, can I hug them?”
“Let’s talk about it after it’s over.”
Duanmu Huai casually sent Qian Zhu aside, and then looked at the others.
“Then that’s it, oh, by the way, everyone should write down their phone numbers. If you find anything, you can report it to me.”
"Telephone?"
“Can’t you?”
"It''s not impossible, but... if it''s a magical girl, wouldn''t it be better to use telepathy?"
Facing Duanmuhuai, Huan Caiyu curiously raised his question, but Duanmuhuai just raised his eyebrows.
“I’m not a magical girl, I don’t have the ability like you.”
"Why?"
“Hey!? Isn’t Miss Duanmu a magical girl?”
I have to say that after hearing Duanmuhuai''s answer, not only Nanami Yachiyo and Huan Iroha, who had just met her recently, opened their eyes in surprise, but even Xiao Meiyan also showed a surprised expression.
"I don''t think I have ever said that I am a magical girl."
Duanmu Huai is very calm.
“But, but, that kind of power just now...?”
“Magical girls are not the only ones with special powers in this world. Not only me, but even Kisara over there is not a magical girl, but if she can deal with you, it won’t take much effort.”
“That’s it, I thought you were all magical girls…”
? Nanami Yachiyo''s reaction was a bit subtle. She initially thought that Duanmu Huai and others were also magical girls who were just "recruited".
??As a result, it seems that they are not magical girls at all?
“Then Miss Qian Shu too?”
"Ah hahaha, don''t count me in. I''m not a magical girl, and I don''t have the power of Ai and Kisara. I''m just an ordinary girl."
Facing Xiao Meiyan’s curious inquiry, Qian Shu smiled hurriedly and waved his hand.
“Okay, let’s do it.”
Duanmu Huai didn''t care about these boring conversations and directly issued the order.
“We must find this person today!”
"yes!"
Of course, the answer is firm, the work is hard, but the results...are not.
Until the afternoon, Duanmuhuai did not receive any meaningful return from others. “So you didn’t find it either?”
"Yes, I''m sorry... We have searched as many places as possible, but we have not found the uncle pushing the bicycle to deliver water. We have also asked the students nearby and they have not seen it either..."
“It’s really troublesome.”
?Hearing Nanami Yachiyo''s answer, Duanmu Huai scratched his head.
“Forget it, prepare to collect... eh?”
?However, just when Duanmuhuai was about to order the work to end, suddenly, one of the summons sent a message to Duanmuhuai. It''s not that I found the target, but... I found something very strange.
What?
Duanmu Huai paused for a moment, then quickly concentrated his attention. Soon another picture appeared in front of his eyes.
I saw a group of students gathering at an intersection, holding a bottle of what looked like soda next to a bicycle. Of course, if that were the case, he would only be considered a street vendor, but...
?What is that thing that is riding on the horse?
Looking at the "thing" that was distributing soda drinks surrounded by students, Duanmu Huai looked confused.
That’s right, that’s not a person at all!
Surrounded by students, the one who was handing out soda drinks to them was a paper figure that looked like a paper cutout! Its body looked like its clothes and facial features were painted in various colors, and it was just there handing out soda while talking to the students. And judging from the way the students were smiling and talking to the paper man, it seemed that they didn''t think there was anything strange about the paper man in front of them.
Could it be that this thing looks different in other people’s eyes?
“Hello? Miss Duanmu?”
"I found a strange thing, located at...forget it, I''ll go directly there, and you guys will go there immediately, I''ll mark the location!"
As Duanmuhuai spoke, he quickly marked the location. At the same time, he stepped on the accelerator and drove along the street, quickly heading in the direction of the weird thing.
??The paper man seemed to have completely ignored the summons that was monitoring him. After distributing the soda, he pushed his bicycle and walked deeper into the Sanjing District. Duanmu Huai also drove quickly to follow, and soon arrived at what looked like an abandoned shop street. At the same time, everyone else basically came here to gather.
“Xiao Ai, what’s wrong? Did you find that man?”
“I don’t know if he is a man, or I don’t know if he is a human being.”
"What''s the meaning?"
Facing the people such as Tomoe Mami, Xiao Meiyan and others who came over, Duanmu Huai briefly described his discovery, which surprised everyone.
“Wait a minute, what is that thing? Isn’t it a human being?”
“Could he be the witch’s familiar?”
“No matter what it is, as long as you catch it, everything will be revealed!”
Duanmuhuai waved his little hand.
“Let’s go!”
Because the shopping street could not be entered by car, everyone rushed in. Fortunately, Duanmu Huai''s summons kept locking on the strange paper man in the air like a drone. It could be seen that the other party was passing through the shopping street. So Duanmu Huai and others did not relax and hurriedly followed.
However, just when they entered the shopping street and planned to catch the paper man, something happened suddenly.
"etc!"
??Just as Duanmu Huai and others rushed into the shopping street, several figures emerged from around the shopping street, blocking everyone''s way. Judging from their body shape, they are all girls, and each of them is wearing a black robe, like Duanmuhuai, wrapping themselves tightly.
“Who are you? What do you want to do?”
Looking at the girls in black cloaks in front of him, Duanmuhuai''s voice deepened and he asked.
"We don''t want to be enemies with you... We have only one purpose here, and that is to hope that you will stop interfering in rumors."
"oh?"
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai showed a smile.
"Why?"
“It’s very simple, even if the rumor is dispelled, it will not do you any good, so we hope you will stop it.”
“Who are you?”
…………”
“Are you related to the rumors?”
…………”
“Okay, no answer, right?”
Duanmuhuai once again glanced at the girls in black cloaks who surrounded him and others, then stretched out his hand and took out his ID.
“I am Duanmu Ai from the Metropolitan Police Department’s Magical Girl Special Investigation Team. I now ask you to answer my question.”
“Police, Metropolitan Police Department?”
“Wait, is that the police?”
Sure enough, after hearing Duanmu Huai''s words, the silent girls in black robes around them suddenly became shaken - this is normal, even if they may be magical girls, they still look like teenagers after all. Girls, unless they are extremely rebellious, who dares to fight against the police?
“No, don’t listen to her nonsense!”
Perhaps the girl in black robes, who was headed by the leader, noticed the wavering on her side, and hurriedly shouted to stop. Then she looked at Duanmu Huai and said dissatisfiedly.
“Don’t try to trick us with this kind of thing! We don’t believe your nonsense. No matter what, you will never pass through here!”
“Yeah……”
Hearing the answer from the girl in black robe, Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders and put away his certificate.
“Obstructing law enforcement and arrest, right? That’s easy to say.”
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai clenched his fists.
“Catch all these people! Get ready to eat pork chop rice!”
