Off Work, Then Transform into a Magical Girl

"Do we have a doorbell?"

Lin Xiaolu, who had been resting her chin on her hands, raised her head and stood up straight. "At this time?"

Xia Liang leaned over and asked, "Is it a delivery?"

"I don't know, I haven't bought anything," Lin Xiaolu denied directly.

"Then maybe it's something your dad bought?" Xia Liang suggested another possibility.

"Him? I've never seen him buy anything online."

Still holding a negative attitude towards this, Lin Xiaolu hesitated for a moment before saying, "But I can't rule out that possibility..."

"So should we open it?"

Looking at the front door in the hallway, Xia Liang was eager to try. "It's daytime, so it should be fine, right?"

"Whether it's daytime or not, the security in our neighborhood should be fine," Lin Xiaolu seemed convinced.

Xia Liang waved her hand and purple magic power condensed into a magic wand in her hand. "Then I'll transform into a magical girl and stand by. If it's a bad person, I'll attack."

Lin Xiaolu wanted to ask why Xia Liang didn't go, but she realized that this was her own home and she should take some responsibility. So she suppressed that thought and stood up from the sofa. "Seems like a good idea."

She waved her hand to cancel her transformation as a magical girl, and Lin Xiaolu put on her slippers and walked towards the front door. Xia Liang, on the other hand, knelt on the sofa with the magic wand, only showing her head as she secretly observed the situation.

Lin Xiaolu frowned and walked to the door. Her hand paused on the doorknob for a moment before pressing it down. She carefully opened the door.

- What she saw was a completely unfamiliar woman.

This woman appeared to be in her twenties, relatively tall, with bright features and a simple C-shaped perm. She was wearing a printed white open-front T-shirt on her upper body, and a high-waisted denim skirt on her lower body. She carried a small crossbody bag, giving off the impression of a capable office lady.

"Who are you?" Lin Xiaolu was dumbfounded.

"Ah, this must be... so adorable!" But the woman in front of her seemed to be very familiar with her. Her eyes lit up when she saw Lin Xiaolu. "I've only seen your photos before, but you're even cuter in person!"

Her self-introduction confused Lin Xiaolu even more. "So who are you?"

"Who I am doesn't matter. What matters is that it's the first time we meet, right, Lin Xiaolu? Come and give Auntie a hug!" The woman opened her arms warmly.

"Why? I don't want to!" Lin Xiaolu couldn't help but take two steps back.

Her strong confusion left her at a loss for words, and the commotion made Xia Liang and Mo Ke in the living room unable to resist coming over.

Seeing the two people in a stalemate, Xia Liang was initially stunned, but quickly understood the situation. Facing the woman at the door, she smiled and asked, "Hello, sister? Who are you looking for?"

Her demeanor and etiquette were quite impeccable, making it impossible to find fault. It was as if she was the child of this family.

And her words made the woman at the door instantly delighted. "Ah? You called me sister? Hahaha, you're such a sweet child."

Because she was wearing outdoor shoes, she couldn't enter the house and could only stand in the hallway, waving her hand to signal. "You come over too, let sister give you a kiss!"

"Um, about that..."

Intimidated by the other person's excessive enthusiasm, even Xia Liang couldn't help but show a helpless expression.

"So who are you?" Lin Xiaolu, who was pushed aside, asked again.

It wasn't until she asked this question for the third time that the woman at the door seemed to snap out of her overly enthusiastic state. She carefully looked at the two girls in front of her and realized that she hadn't introduced herself yet.

It was indeed confusing when a stranger was so familiar. So she coughed lightly and slightly restrained her expression.

"Cough, it seems that you don't know who I am. Let me briefly explain."

She lifted the small black ID card in her hand and waved it in the air. "I am Hong Siyu, the liaison officer of the Bureau of Special Tactics. I am responsible for coordinating with your senior, Cui Que. Besides that, ten years ago, I was also a resident magical girl in Fangting City."

A quick look at /2p9emv8w will leave you more fulfilled.

Her movements were quite skillful and refreshing, and her smile was very friendly. But with such a simple statement, it contained a lot of information, leaving the two girls behind the door stunned.

"Cui Que's... liaison officer?"

"A magical girl from ten years ago?"

Obviously, the girls had different focuses.

Lin Xiaolu was naturally more concerned about Cui Que's interpersonal relationships. It was impossible for her not to be curious about what kind of person Cui Que's liaison officer was.

As for Xia Liang, she would naturally think of the same question as Lin Xiaolu, but the latter half of what Hong Siyu said was obviously more important.

Seeing that her self-introduction successfully attracted the interest of the two girls, Hong Siyu at the door knocked on the door frame and no longer showed excessive enthusiasm. She suggested, "I've said so much, don't you plan to invite me in for a sit?"

The two girls exchanged glances. Xia Liang squinted her eyes, and only then did Lin Xiaolu reluctantly pull out a pair of shoe covers from the shoe cabinet in the entrance hall and handed them to Hong Siyu. "Here."

"Hehe, then I'll just have to obey your wishes, sister."@@novelbin@@

Taking the shoe covers from Lin Xiaolu's hand, Hong Siyu skillfully put them on her square-toed shoes. With a sense of excitement that others couldn't understand, she stepped into the apartment in front of her.

As she stepped into Lin Xiaolu's home, she subconsciously looked around. Her gaze moved from the dining room to the living room, taking in the dining table, clock, and cabinets... and then to the neatly arranged sofa. A hint of nostalgia flashed across her face.

It's been a long time.

She murmured to herself.

This strange behavior made Lin Xiaolu, who was standing by her side, stare at her in confusion. Xia Liang was also puzzled. However, out of courtesy, they quickly led Hong Siyu to the living room.

Xia Liang turned to make tea in the kitchen, while Lin Xiaolu pointed casually to the sofa, her expression somewhat tense. "Here, please sit."

"Are you feeling shy?" Hong Siyu turned around and asked her.

"Not at all."

Lin Xiaolu replied stiffly, "Please don't treat me like a child."

"Shyness isn't a trait exclusive to children."

Hong Siyu found a vacant spot on the sofa and casually sat down. "We adults can feel this way too, you know? And we even give it a more serious name, social anxiety."

"...I said I'm not."

"Alright, alright, you're not."

Hong Siyu chuckled teasingly, patting the empty spot next to her. "Can you come sit next to me, so I can get a good look at you?"

"Um..." In response to this request, Lin Xiaolu remained frozen in place, not moving an inch.
