Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　Cong Yuwen laughed lewdly as he pressed on with the question.

　"Um... this... that..."

　The homeroom teacher stammered, his eyes darting around as he pondered the outrageous things he had recently done... Logically speaking, Cong Yu shouldn't know.

　However, maybe his own father told him...

　"I shouldn't have bragged about being a master of teacher-student romances at the class reunion and even sent them your photos."

　"..."

　"Hahaha!!!"

　Cong Yu smiled with relief, but her expression instantly turned cold. She grabbed the back of her homeroom teacher's collar with one hand and said, "Principal... I'll take my leave now."

　Class teacher: "Wait... Cong Yu, what are you doing? Stop! If someone sees this, my dignity as a teacher will be ruined... No!"

　Amidst the homeroom teacher's wailing, she was dragged out of the principal's office by Cong Yu like a chick being lifted up.

　The principal smiled gently, waved two fingers together in the direction the two had left, and said goodbye with a flourish.

　“Arrivederci——”

　Chapter 108 Qili decides to seek refuge with the Monster King

　"Regarding the handling of the Cong Yu and Feng Du incident... On behalf of Teacher Qi Li, I would like to propose the following suggestions—"

　The girl stood up in the conference room, staring intently at the A4 paper covered with dense writing on her hand.

　"Firstly, we should adopt a more conciliatory approach and wait until the other party has graduated from high school or college before trying to contact the boy named Cong Yu and interfere in his life because of his special circumstances."

　The girl spoke in a serious and methodical manner, clearly reading from a prepared script, but the people attending the meeting around her didn't seem to care.

　"Secondly, we reject the proposal made at the previous meeting to conduct a more rigorous review of the Fuuto Magical Girls Agency. We believe that the responsibility for this incident cannot be attributed to the Fuuto Magical Girls Agency."

　"In this incident, the magical girls of the Fuuto Magical Girl Agency have actively participated in the battles against boss-level monsters and even king-level monsters. If you want to criticize their lack of ability, I'll be frank... none of you here could have done any better."

　Many people frowned at the girl's words and looked at Cang Kong☆Qili sitting on the elders' seat... because everyone knew that she had written the manuscript.

　So, before the girl could finish speaking, a man with a furious expression slammed his fist on the table and stood up: "What a joke! Since you knew something this big was going to happen, almost turning into a second Beidu, why didn't you request reinforcements?!"

　This caused many people's faces to darken once again.

　Meanwhile, Cang Kong☆Qili, who was sitting comfortably, laughed... She had finally gotten the impatient boy to speak up and refute her.

　"Please calm down, Mr. Yuan'an... I know you're lacking..."

　They became victims, but didn't anyone really apply for support?

　Qili spoke slowly and deliberately, a smile on her face: "I applied... but I was fooled."

　As she said this, Qili glanced at everyone present, but couldn't tell who was involved in the matter.

　She couldn't determine at the moment whether someone had a conflict of interest with the cockroach-man and mushroom-man group, or simply didn't want to get involved.

　Left with no other choice, Qili could only temporarily direct her anger at the data department.

　"I wanted to investigate information and intelligence about the 'King,' but I failed... Left with no other choice, I had to go to Europe to search for information."

　"If even I can't access the information and archives in the data department, then what's the point of your existence?!"

　Qi Li's sharp rebuke drew everyone's attention to the head of the data department, making the young-looking woman somewhat embarrassed.

　But she did hear that Qili wanted to look up information related to "Wang", and immediately made excuses by saying "I need to ask my superiors".

　That's "King" level.

　However, if she had known earlier that she would become the target of public criticism, and if she had known that the situation in Fengdu could be resolved reasonably well, she would have simply relinquished her authority.

　It's a pity I didn't know sooner.

　"Um... please don't change the subject."

　The head of the data department, his face grim, tried to steer the conversation away from himself: "We're currently discussing 'Cong Yu'."

　If Qili wants to continue discussing the division of blame, then it can still continue... after all, everyone is happy to see the situation continue to develop.

　Everyone present, whether they were board members, elders like Sora Kirei, or people from Fuuto like the Toan and Shiratori families…

　They will all have to take the blame, more or less.

　However, if more of the burden could be distributed among the data science department, then the amount of burden they would receive would undoubtedly decrease.

　However, Qili did not intend to continue to pursue the matter, or rather... she did not intend to continue to shift the blame.

　She's not that bad yet.

　"..." In the silence, Qili looked around at the high-ranking members of the Magical Girl Association... Rotten, really rotten.

　They might be incompetent, cowardly, or entangled with the group of weirdos, having been caught red-handed and practically becoming their mole.

　There are good people among them, but just like Qili right now... they can't do anything, and they know they can't change anything.

　With the fall of Beidu.

　The whole of Japan is destined to be a paradise for weirdos.

　The only difference is "when" and "whether it is done openly or not".

　Even if you replace them with a group of people who are as enthusiastic and capable as possible... they are destined to be unable to accomplish anything.

　Unfortunately, Qili is not the president of the association.

　Fortunately... she wasn't the president of the association.

　"..."

　"Ahem, so, the third proposal."

　At Ms. Qili's prompting, the girl continued speaking... or rather, reading from her prepared statement: "Regarding the 'Wang Zhi' proposal from several years ago."

　"On behalf of my teacher, Magical Girl Sora☆Kirei, and in my capacity as an elder of the Magical Girl Association... I request a restart."

　The girl was somewhat confused as she read it aloud.

　Although it came from her own mouth, she had never even heard of "Wang Zhi" or anything like that.

　"..."

　"Are you kidding me, Qili!"

　"Don't be ridiculous, this proposal has already been rejected!"

　Do you know how much international impact this will have?

　Many people asked this question, and at the same time stood up, looking at Qili in disbelief... However, a large number of people maintained an indifferent attitude.

　Honestly, it doesn't matter anymore.

　"I'm just making a suggestion... I'll report my thoughts to the cabinet. Anyone with the same idea can come to me and we can jointly submit a petition. We'll leave everything to the cabinet gentlemen to decide."

　As Qili spoke, glancing at her indignant colleagues, she sighed softly, "I will try to find that 'King' in Fengdu and explain my thoughts."

　Upon hearing her say that, the person who had stood up immediately sat down.

　But Qili hadn't finished speaking...

　"I also appreciate those who voice their dissenting opinions at this moment, and I will try to introduce you to that king."

　Everyone: You son of a bitch!

　"..."

　"Ahem, then..."

　In a seemingly docile silence, Qili coughed twice, knowing that she had now completely taken control of the meeting.

　"Let's begin the vote, the 41 of us here, and the 30 of us participating remotely... Let's begin the resolution on my proposals, especially the third one."

　"..." 26 votes in favor, 31 abstentions, and 14 votes against.

　"..." Without a doubt, Qili's proposal was approved.

　Although it may not be implemented well, for example, most people probably won't really have the patience to wait until the boy named "Congyu" graduates before getting in touch with him.

　But it passed without a doubt.

　Aside from Qili and her apprentice's votes of approval, 24 other people enthusiastically cast their votes in favor.

　This group of people, a portion

　Perhaps they felt that what Qili said made sense, or partly because they had a vested interest in Qili.

　And the remaining people who voted "yes"...

　Their composition is highly questionable.

　……

　Realizing this, Qili understood once again clearly that this country was completely beyond saving... or more accurately, it was the people who were beyond saving.

　This decision was Qili's final test for herself.

　If there are more veto votes, then the Magical Girl Association still has hope... even just a tiny bit.

　Qili will continue to make every effort to make humanity great again.

　But now it seems...

　I decided against it.

　Chapter 109 What is Social Skill? (Proud)

　"Teacher, what exactly is this 'Wang Zhi' you mentioned before?"

　The girl asked curiously, looking around the rooftop, wondering why Teacher Qili had brought her to this tall building in Fengdu again.

　"It means actively increasing the number of Beidu."

　Qili responded in this way.

　This sounds very strange, because the city of Beidu only has one... What does increasing the number mean?

　The girl looked puzzled, her ahoge (cowlick) swaying on her head.

　Then, the slow-to-react girl realized her teacher's underlying meaning: "Huh? Why...why?"

　There are many reasons why.

　"Actually, the strategy of 'rule by kings' was proposed in South Asia a long, long time ago... not just proposed, but implemented."

　"It's still being implemented to this day..."

　As Qili said this, she sat on the edge of the rooftop: "Before submitting to the King of Monsters, South Asia was quite chaotic... Disputes between small countries, monster invasions, and smuggling were always happening one after another."

　"However, after submitting to the 'King'... while it's hard to say things have completely calmed down, the magical girls over there seem to have been 'removed'."

　"The Ninth Group of Monsters has taken over South Asia, and the magical girls there no longer need to fight... but have completely become entertainment."

　"When monsters invade, there are strange heroes to deal with them; when monsters from other groups attack, there are also strange heroes to fight them..."

　"..." The girl blinked her eyes in confusion, thinking that this sounded pretty good... This is a good thing!

　"However, in that case... the life and death of humanity will truly be decided by the King of Monsters in a single thought."

　"Whether it continues to exist or not begins to depend on the 'King's' benevolence and mercy, and it also has an extremely bad reputation internationally..."

　"For example, if a cabinet member agrees to this plan, he will be remembered in history."

　"However, for us, it makes no difference anymore..."

　"In the Battle of Beidu, we exhausted all our morale and strength."

　As Qili spoke, she sighed and looked at her apprentice beside her, hoping to make her understand the meaning of compromise...

　Then she saw the masked man next to her apprentice... the strange man.

　Cong Yu greeted the two of them cheerfully.

　"Ciallo——(∠ω<)⌒★"

　Then, he brazenly sat down to the right of Magical Girl Azure☆Kirei, his legs dangling in the air: "Stay in a familiar place, unleashing a wide range of magic to show off your presence... You're not trying to provoke me, are you?"

　Upon hearing Cong Yu's words, Qi Li immediately panicked: "No..."

　But before she could finish the second syllable, Cong Yu immediately laughed: "Haha, just kidding... You must have been looking for me on your own initiative, right? I think we have that kind of tacit understanding."
