Magical Girl's Knight Brother

Chapter 241 The Ward

Chapter 241 The Ward

Listening to Chang Lei's words, Tang Zijun also fell into deep thought.

The current situation is indeed quite delicate for all parties involved.

The heretical demons are embroiled in internal strife, and war is raging everywhere in the inner world. Other high-ranking officials are all vying for a piece of the knight's territory, and the situation seems to be escalating.

The Flower Fairy Clan remained in the Mirror Dimension. The Tree of Life had not yet recovered, and most of the clan had been killed or wounded. The entire clan now numbered only a little over two thousand, a very small number.

The situation in the country is complex. Although the Bureau of Magical Supervision and the Magical Girls are on the right track, they are still in their early stages and cannot yet protect everyone.

As for the situation abroad, it's an even bigger mess. Some places promote magical girls, some capture magical girls, and some assassinate magical girls from other countries.

Even worse, some have started to engage in the worship of heretical religions.

In just one month, all sorts of cults have sprung up, and in some places, sacrifices have even begun to be made to heretics.

It's hard to imagine that such a thing could happen in the 21st century.

Now, the Shadow Clan, which is causing Tang Zijun and the others the most trouble, has also begun to stir, and has directly reached out to the newly born magical girls, which is a direct attack on their very foundation.

No matter how things develop, Tang Zijun has to admit that the current situation is much more troublesome than when he acted alone back then.

Chang Lei's words did make some sense, but Tang Zijun still had some doubts. "You just said that a blue-level magical girl will appear on the day of the meeting. Even if the Shadow Clan had the guts to do something, they probably wouldn't dare to make a move at that time."

"The cooperation between the Demon Surveillance Bureau and the Flower Fairy Clan is an inevitable trend that cannot be stopped. The Shadow Clan, in its current state, is naturally unable to achieve this, but this is their last chance."

Chang Lei pondered for a moment, then spoke.

"The first case of the Shadow Clan appeared within our territory. If the three-person team is officially formed, the Shadow Clan will completely lose its right to operate in the entire East University region."

"By then, whether it's the Shadow Woman or other Shadow Clans, they will have no choice but to abandon this place and turn their attention to other countries."

"But I feel that this matter may not be so simple. We don't know much about the Shadow Clan. However, if this happened to me, I certainly wouldn't slink away like this."

"So you think the Shadow Woman will make another move, and on the same day that the Flower Fairy Clan meets with the Demon Surveillance Bureau?" Tang Zijun asked.

Chang Lei nodded slightly and gave Tang Zijun a deep look.

"Don't forget, during this period of internal strife around the world, the frequency of breaches in many small cities has skyrocketed, and in some places the breaches have even merged into one."

"I imagine there are quite a few new magical girls."

Tang Zijun silently withdrew her gaze, then turned her attention to the black rainbow crystal flower. Looking at the pearl that absorbed light like a black hole, Tang Zijun's gaze darkened.

A fallen magical girl...:

This is really troublesome.

Noticing Tang Zijun's gaze, Chang Lei also looked at the rainbow crystal flower. "This thing has been contaminated,"

Even if it were returned to that foreign girl, it wouldn't be usable, and there would be a risk of corruption.

"Um."

"Why don't we let the scholars in the bureau study it, or have the Flower Fairy and the others try to see if they can find a way to eliminate these shadow powers, and if they can repair them?"

"The light and shadow have already merged; it can't be erased." Tang Zijun shook her head slightly. "Little Grey has already confirmed that the pollution from the Rainbow Crystal Flower is irreversible."

"That's troublesome." Chang Lei sighed. "Anyway, this thing absolutely cannot fall into the hands of the Shadow Clan. Or... should we destroy it?"

"No need."

Tang Zijun slowly brought it to her eyes and carefully observed the flow of energy within.

"But if we don't destroy it, it will always be a hidden danger, since no one can use it..."

Oh...0

Halfway through his sentence, Chang Lei looked at Tang Zijun with a sudden realization.

"...I see."

The next morning, Tang Zijun, carrying a bag of fruit and a box of milk, arrived at the Harbin Provincial Hospital with Chang Lei.

"I really don't understand, is it always just fruit and milk when people visit the sick? Why can't we change it up, like buying roast duck or sashimi? That would be so much tastier."

"...Roast duck is too oily, and sashimi can harbor bacteria, both of which are detrimental to the patient's recovery. Alright, alright, we're almost there, so stop talking nonsense."

The two talked as they walked and soon arrived at the special ward.

Outside the ward, Detective Zhou and Detective Chen were on guard duty. When they saw Tang Zijun and Chang Lei coming over, they quickly saluted.

"lead."

"Hmm." Chang Lei coughed, waved his hand, and then asked, "How is the girl?"

:

"He's out of danger, but he's a little weak," Detective Chen replied.

"What about her identity?"

"Tatiana, a student from Mauritius, rented a house in Iceland. She had just finished her internship last week. She is a loner with few friends, so no one noticed that she was missing."

After saying that, Detective Chen added another sentence.

"We have not yet contacted her family or the embassy."

Nodding slightly, Chang Lei pushed open the door to the ward.

The ward was very large and fully equipped with all kinds of facilities. If you removed the medical facilities and life monitoring devices, it would look more like a luxury hotel.

Besides Tatiana, Tang Cao, Qin Nan, and others were also in the ward, while Zhang Wei was talking to a doctor. When the door opened, everyone's eyes turned to him.

"Brother." Tang Cao was the first to stand up, rushing to Tang Zijun. "Where have you been? We didn't see you when we came out. Captain Zhang didn't tell me where you were either."

"It's a special mission. I'll tell you when we get back." Tang Zijun pinched her cheek.

Zhang Wei walked over quickly, first glancing at Tang Zijun before turning his gaze to Chang Lei.

"Mr. Tang, Director Chang."

"Yes, Zhang Wei, right? You did a good job." Chang Lei patted his shoulder and smiled. "Staff Officer Ma needs to see you. You can go out for a bit."

"Yes." Zhang Wei did not hesitate and turned to leave the ward.

The group arrived at the bedside and finally saw Tatiana as she was now.

She looked like a young and pretty girl, completely different from the crazy and unruly person in the real world. At this moment, she was looking at the strangers in front of her with a mixture of nervousness and curiosity.

"Hello, let me introduce myself. I am Chang Lei, the deputy director of the Magic Supervision Bureau, and one of the people in charge of supernatural management."

Chang Lei stood in front of the bed, a kind smile full of concern on his face.

"I know you're nervous right now, but don't be afraid. It's all over now, and you're safe."

Tatiana looked at Chang Lei with a blank expression, as if she was thinking about something. After a while, she nodded slightly.

Qin Nan silently walked to Tang Zijun's side and whispered, "She suffered severe mental trauma. Hyacinths can heal her body, but they can't heal her mind. That's why she's like this after waking up."

How serious is it?

"After the doctor's examination, he said that my reaction is a little slower than normal, but it's hard to say for sure. I don't know if I can recover," Qin Nan murmured.

Tang Zijun pondered for a moment, then winked at Chang Lei.

Upon receiving the signal, Chang Lei paused for a moment, then turned and nodded to Tang Zijun.

This level of psychological trauma is something that Chang Lei's deception skills are more than capable of repairing; it's not a major problem.

"Oh, right," Qin Nan added in a low voice, as if remembering something. "Besides that, her body has become extremely sensitive."

"What does it mean when the body becomes particularly sensitive?"

"Ugh." Qin Nan stepped on Tang Zijun's foot and turned her head to the side. "Just the way you understand it."

Tang Zijun turned to look at Tang Cao with a bewildered expression, only to see that Tang Cao's face was also flushed red. Only then did he realize what had happened.

"How do we solve this?"

"have no idea."

"Where are the spirit beasts?"

"That rabbit? It's next door. The spirit beast is still in critical condition. Compared to Tatiana, she's more seriously injured. Hyacinth is keeping an eye on it."

At this point, Tang Cao curiously leaned closer. "Brother, what should we do with that spirit beast?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Zijun shook her head. "I don't know yet."

He then looked at Qin Nan. "Qin Nan, what would you have done if you had encountered this situation before?"

Qin Nan thought for a moment and then explained in a low voice.

"Spirit beasts and Rainbow Crystal Flowers are bound together. Little Grey had lost his partner before, and he only came to me after the Rainbow Crystal Flower was restored."

"But this rabbit is in a bit of a predicament. Not only did it fail to awaken, but it also lost its Rainbow Crystal Flower. In fact, even if it hadn't been lost, there would have been no way to recover it, as the Rainbow Crystal Flower, once contaminated, cannot reassemble the power of nature."

"Even if she survives, she probably won't be able to sign a contract with the girl. In this situation, she'll usually be taken care of by another magical girl. After all, the spirit beast has already received its inheritance, and we can't let it wander the streets."

"Huh? I see..." Tangcao opened her mouth.

Qin Nan shrugged. "I estimate that once she's out of danger, the bureau will arrange for her to stay temporarily at another magical girl's house, just like Xiao Hui did before."

"But as I said before, without the Rainbow Crystal Flower, she has no chance of advancing, and she can't awaken her talent magic like Little Gray and Little White. She'll probably just be a mascot."

There's no doubt that spirit beasts and magical girls are partners.

Both sides always fight side by side and grow together. Under such circumstances, it is unlikely that anyone would want to bring along a burden, and a spirit beast without magic cannot provide much help at all.

So Qin Nan was right. Even if this spirit beast were assigned to another magical girl, it would basically just be there to freeload.

At this moment, Chang Lei coughed lightly and waved his hand slightly.

"Alright, Detective Tang, the mission is over. You can take Qing and Bai back to Snow City now. I'll handle things here."

"Yes."
