The villainous magical girl's daily mission is to find fault.

Chapter 258 Welcome to the Music Hall

The heat brought by the volcano monster gradually dissipated.

Hyacinth's everyday clothes have changed from yesterday's sweatshirt to a shirt jacket, so that she can look more in line with today's temperature.

At least you won't get strange looks from passersby.

"To ensure safety, we have increased the number of personnel for field operations and canceled the three-pronged division of labor, so as to concentrate our combat power as much as possible."

The white sable sprite, hidden in the hood of Hyacinth's coat, spoke to the people around her.

"In short, you can rest assured. Mai Sui and the others will be at the association headquarters ready to support you at any time. I heard they have prepared ample firepower to deal with this, so there will absolutely be no problems!"

"I hope so."

Iris nodded with a wry smile, still quite confident in the firepower of her senior, Wheat Ear.

Nightingale sighed helplessly, slung her handbag over her shoulder, and quietly checked the contents of the bag.

Smoke grenades... flashbangs... and prepared tear gas and stun grenades... all set!

Walking not far from the three were the red zircon and the amethyst pair, the latter perfectly complementing the magic-suppressing barrier that Xin Yuehu had set up; it could even be said that this was entirely her domain.

Zi Yingshi carried a hard guitar bag, which was disproportionate to her petite figure, but it did not attract attention. She looked just like a student on her way to a music class.

Hyacinth glanced at the quiet girl wearing a mask and a hat, and swallowed hard.

Her guitar case didn't contain any musical instrument—it contained a terrifying weapon, the weapon that made Amethyst famous, a heavy sniper rifle transformed from her wand.

M200 sniper rifle.

"..."

As if sensing Hyacinth's gaze, Amethyst glanced at her discreetly, and the moment their eyes met, she shuddered and quickly shrank behind Red Zircon.

"Hmm? Xiao Zi, what's wrong?"

"..."

"...Oh, that's a hyacinth over there. Haven't you met it before?"

Turning her head to meet the gaze of the hyacinth, the red zircon looked at her companion with a puzzled expression.

Seeing that the amethyst remained shy, the red zircon sighed and said to the hyacinth:

"That's just Xiao Zi's personality, I'm sorry."

"It's alright, we'll be counting on you guys from now on."

"Leave it to me and Xiao Zi!" Red Zircon said confidently with a smile.

The group parted ways at the intersection of a music square. Red Zircon and Purple Fluorite turned onto a house with a wide view by the roadside and headed to occupy Purple Fluorite's sniping high ground.

"Let's go, our task is still quite challenging."

After watching the two leave, Hyacinth turned to look at the iris and nightingale behind her, clenching her fist with a serious expression.

"—Find the barrier set up by Xin Yuehu and the others, evacuate the crowd, dismantle it, and then leave quickly!"

"Let's get started!"

……

Nan Xiaofeng walked into the music square.

It's less of a plaza and more of a large magical girl music theme park.

—That's right, this is also a magical girl theme park. Don't question any magical girl elements in a world with magical girls.

This is the venue for Inari's first performance after her debut, and also the performance location she most often used when she was active as a magical girl.

Today, as always, a music party is being held here, playing familiar anime theme songs, including songs sung by Red Rose.

Hearing songs from fifty years ago here is quite unexpected, Hyacinth thought.

But do such places really have so-called barrier nodes?

The nightingale walked beside the hyacinth, carefully observing its surroundings.

There is a fairly large music hall nearby, with several advertisements for music classrooms posted on the exterior walls. An artificial lake flows around the music hall, and it seems that the sounds of music being taught can be heard from inside.

As for the greenery, it was exceptionally good—

The park is covered with trees and shrubs, and the main roads and forest paths divide the park into three areas, which is even more extensive than the shopping mall terrain yesterday.

"The terrain here is quite complicated," Nightingale said.

Hyacinth nodded, then instinctively reached out and pressed her hand against the cold weapon hidden beneath her coat, ready to deal with any possible ambush or sneak attack from Heart Moon Fox.

But... is Xin Yuehu really nearby?

She would definitely leave herself space to evacuate the crowd before she started fighting. In that case, could I judge whether Xin Yuehu was ready to make a move by the degree of crowd gathering around her?

Nan Xiaofeng suddenly had a dangerous thought—if he stayed with the crowd, could he get rid of that golden fox...?

"No, no! That kind of thinking is absolutely unacceptable!"

Nan Xiaofeng raised his hand and slapped himself twice, throwing this terrible wheat tactic to the other side of the astral plane, startling the two people next to him.

The three began their investigation in the music park.

Bai Ling also peeked out from under the hood of Hyacinth's coat, curiously looking around.

"The environment here is quite nice," Bai Ling said. "Did Inari used to hold her performances here? What kind of performances did she do?"

"That's too many."

The nightingale quickly stepped forward and said confidently.

As a huge fan of magical girls, Lin Muyao's love for Inari is no less than that for others, and she knows Inari's performances like the back of her hand.

"Inari-senpai's magic level is extremely high! She can create a barrier that launches fireworks with the magic power of a single magic missile; her magic show is even more spectacular than Akihachi-senpai's!"

"More magnificent than the poplar? That's truly amazing!" the iris exclaimed in surprise, a sentiment echoed by the hyacinth.

However, the latter is a die-hard fan of Akihabara and didn't say much about it, but her confident expression was enough to demonstrate the level of Inari's magic.

"Inari-senpai even composed many solo songs. There is a studio in that music hall where she used to compose and sing. It is probably a tourist attraction now."

"...So, Kokoro really did have a keen eye on the tourist spots that Inari-senpai left in Hong Kong. They're exactly the same as the ones in her trailer."

The nightingale muttered to itself.

The three chatted and laughed as they walked along a forest path toward the music hall.

What no one noticed was that on a window sill on the second floor of the music hall, a golden figure gently lowered the curtain beside her.

"They arrived and entered the concert hall about five minutes later."

"You came pretty quickly."

Not far behind, the catgirl in tactical attire stretched lazily, pulled the black weapon hanging beside her to her front, pulled back the bolt to check the chamber, and hooked the bullet that flew out of the ejection port with the tip of her tail.

The 5.56*45mm bullet emits a deep blue magical aura, and you can feel its terrifying power.

"Yes, after all, this music hall is quite eye-catching." Su Tianqing said happily, turning to look at the catgirl beside her.

"Today is going to be fun, Kitty, how are you planning to play with them?"

"I already have an idea."

The catgirl walked to the window, peeked out and looked at Hyacinth, who was walking at the front of the line, and smiled slightly.

"I want to have a good talk with Hyacinth."
