Urging for more updates, then turning into a magical girl.

Faced with the sharp gazes of the two junior high school students, He Siyuan, who lacked any ability to react on the spot, felt her mind go blank.

"Um...you mean...Su Chenjin..."

He Siyuan's gaze began to wander, and her voice stammered, "She...she's actually also a friend of mine..."

"Friends..." Xie Lan clearly wasn't going to let her off the hook so easily, and continued to press, "So how did you and Miss Su meet? Do you know where she used to live?"

"Uh... well... that's a long story..."

He Siyuan was covered in cold sweat.

I have a feeling that if I keep talking nonsense here, I'll definitely make more and more mistakes!

Just as He Siyuan was feeling extremely uneasy, a cell phone rang from her pocket.

Feeling like she'd been granted a pardon, He Siyuan jumped up from her chair, took out her phone, glanced at the caller ID, and immediately gave Liu Xiali and Xie Lan a stiff smile.

"Haha... I suddenly got a call, and it's something urgent! Anyway, you guys enjoy your lunch, I... I'll be going now! Bye-bye!"

Before she could finish speaking, and before Liu Xiali and Xie Lan could react, He Siyuan rushed to the entrance, changed her shoes smoothly, opened and closed the door in one go, and escaped.

Watching the fleeting afterimage, Liu Xiali crossed her arms, confirming her suspicions once more, her tone utterly certain: "Suspicious! Absolutely suspicious!"

"It's really suspicious!" Xie Lan nodded in agreement. "She gets so nervous when asked about the juniors... This reaction is definitely not normal."

"...Let's not delay, Xiao Lan, let's go too!" Liu Xiali suddenly stood up.

"...Go? Go where?" Xie Lan was stunned for a moment, still holding her rice bowl.

"Of course, we're going to follow that woman!" Liu Xiali grabbed Xie Lan's arm. "She's so suspicious, and she's connected to my equally suspicious mother. I absolutely have to find out her true identity!"

…………

On the other side, He Siyuan, who had escaped from Liu Xiali's house, ran all the way to the street. After confirming that no one was following her for the time being, she breathed a long sigh of relief and answered the phone that had been ringing in her hand.

"Mayo, I'm sorry for calling you so suddenly. It took you so long to answer... Are you busy right now?" A cute female voice from the upperclassman came from the other end of the phone.

"...No, no, no! I'm not busy at all!" He Siyuan wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and said with lingering fear, "In fact, your call came at just the right time. Is there anything you want to tell me?"

"Yes, that's right. I'm about to head to the Magic Kingdom with Arc Moon."

Upon hearing this news, He Siyuan involuntarily stopped in her tracks by the street: "Eh? Heading to the Magic Kingdom? Commander, this...this is too dangerous! You're still on the kingdom's blacklist, so is it really okay to just go there?"

"It should be fine."

The voice on the phone sounded quite calm and confident. "Regarding my current body modifications, according to Dr. Zhang, this body won't be found to have any problems. Even the 'Supreme Scepter' in the kingdom couldn't see through the secrets of my body, much less recognize that I am Cheng Qi. On this point, I have a lot of faith in her skills."

"...Commander, you seem to trust Dr. Zhang Menglin a lot," He Siyuan couldn't help but exclaim.

"In scientific research, she is indeed second to none and has real skills. I have witnessed this before."

Cheng Qi paused, his cute female voice gradually lowering, "But I've recently discovered that this guy's words and actions are a bit suspicious; she seems to be hiding quite a few secrets. That's why I specifically chose to contact you. After all, among the current 'Four Heavenly Kings,' you're the most suitable person for me to contact one-on-one."

"Huh?" Hearing this, He Siyuan felt flattered, her cheeks flushing slightly. "Senior...do you trust me that much?"

"Yes, of course. If I were to tell Mo Ranying and Luo Le about my trip to the magical kingdom... their first reaction would definitely be that it's too dangerous, and they'd just drag me back to the underground base and lock me up like a caged bird. They would never agree to my plan to go to the kingdom. So, I'll have to trouble you to keep this a secret for me. I'm telling you now in case something really happens, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Hehe, Commander, don't worry!" He Siyuan was in a good mood, and the sense of responsibility of being the Commander's favorite instantly overwhelmed her.

While He Siyuan was on the phone, she didn't notice that two furtive figures were following her from the crowd not far behind.

"That woman has been on the phone ever since she came out..." Liu Xiali squinted, observing. "She's too far away; I can't hear who's on the other end at all!"

"Hey, don't get so close, she'll find out!" Xie Lan hid behind Liu Xiali and tugged at her sleeve.

Using the buildings and crowds along the street as cover, the two quietly followed He Siyuan.

However, as they followed her further, they noticed that there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street. This was because He Siyuan had gradually deviated from the main road and turned into an abandoned alleyway that was usually deserted.

"She went into the alley, should we follow her?" Xie Lan hesitated.

"Shh... let's get close and just peek through the alleyway!"

The two tiptoed to the corner of the alley and cautiously peeked out into the depths of the alley.

At that moment, He Siyuan, who was in the alley, had already hung up the phone. Apparently, in her haste, she hadn't checked her surroundings carefully before secretly transforming herself on the spot!

A dazzling purple magical light flashed by in the alley.

What appeared was a magical girl with red twin tails, wearing a purple dress and a dark red cape!

"That...that's not..." Liu Xiali was stunned when she saw this scene.

"...One of the Four Heavenly Kings who reside in the Star Realm..." Xie Lan's voice was barely audible, "...Magical Girl, Maya?!"

After a brief moment of shock, the two quickly pulled their heads back.

They looked up slightly, and the red magical light rose upwards. However, the two dared not look closely, and instead found a rooftop to hide from the view from above.

"It seems... I've seen something incredible..."
