She flashed her badge briefly, but before Moke and Lin Xiaolu could make out the inscription, she tucked it away again.
"Even though you might have heard this just now, I'll introduce myself anyway."
With a cold gaze directed at the magical girl and fairy in front of her, she tilted her head up slightly and began with a bit of haughtiness, "I am a patrol officer from the Magic Kingdom, magical girl Erald Sparrow, certified with the floral emblem, badge number 41076. I am now in charge of the stationed investigation regarding the abnormal situation in Fangting City, and I hope you will cooperate."
The cat-shaped fairy's eyes widened, "Ah-ah?"
"Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah..."
Overwheld by shock, Moke could only produce a hoarse squawk. Eventually, with a bewildered expression, she raised her head, "ow ow ow? ow ow ow. ow ow ow ow!"
Lin Xiaolu also widened her eyes, "Moke has started talking gibberish!"
"Oh—seriously!"
After a brief struggle, the cat-shaped fairy could not resist grabbing its own ears and shouted in desperation, "Alright! I admit it! I'm not the original Seeder of Fangting City, okay? I ran away on my own!"
"I myself only arrived in this city last month, planning to seek out a senior I knew, but when I got here, I found out there was nothing in this city!"
"Nini, the senior, wasn't here at all! This city doesn't have a single magical girl; instead, right when I arrived, I faced an attack by Remnant Beasts! And then I found out, nonsensically, that I had been appointed the Seeder here!"
Lin Xiaolu, hearing this, showed a shocked face, "Wait? Then does that an? At that ti?"
Moke chuckled miserably, "Yes, that Remnant Beast was targeting . In my desperation, I saw you seed to have the talent to beco a magical girl, so I chose you!"
"And you told I was a once in a hundred-year prodigy, destined to be the greatest magical girl?"
"I made that up on the spot!"
"You also said that the Remnant Beast randomly appeared there and attacked the citizens?"
"That was also a lie!"
"Ah? Eh? You, you liar!"
"I'm a liar! I'm rotten!"
Seeing the relationship between the two on the verge of collapsing, the magical girl who called herself Erald Sparrow had no choice but to interrupt their pointless quarreling: "Enough, you two, stop for a mont."
With a somber look, she pressed down on her palm: "I need to confirm sothing again. That fairy... Moke is your na, correct? You're saying that you only arrived in this city last month and at that ti you didn't find any Seeder or magical girl in the city?"
Moke, who had completely given in to despair, nodded her head gloomily, "Yes, that's right."
"But you were able to choose this young lady here..."
Lin Xiaolu raised her hand, "My na is Lin Xiaolu."
Erald Sparrow turned to Moke, "And you could form a contract with Lin Xiaolu, enabling her to beco a magical girl?"
Moke drooped her head, "Hmm."
Erald Sparrow pressed on: "So you are saying that you weren't originally a Seeder, but after arriving in Fangting City, you found yourself appointed as the Seeder here?"
Moke continued to nod, "Hmm."
"Unheard-of."
Erald Sparrow pondered, pinching her chin, "The Magic Kingdom's orders should not be sothing taken lightly. Didn't you try to contact the kingdom to understand the specifics?"
Upon hearing this, Moke, who already had a gloomy face, sank even lower.
This sparked so unpleasant suspicions in Erald Sparrow's mind.
"You, did you perhaps..."
She couldn't help but point her finger at the cat-shaped fairy.
Moke turned her head to the side, eyes closed, and admitted:
"Yes, I severed all ans of contact when I ran away."
"Great, now I've started to get a headache."
As these words left her, Erald Sparrow involuntarily supported her forehead with one hand: "So you an all reliable sources of information are lost, what's happened in Fangting City is completely unknown, and the magical defense forces are virtually nil at this mont?"
"That's right, just like that, Lady Patrol Officer, you have to help us!"
With that, Moke quickly grabbed onto the newly ford relationship. She approached with her appealing cat features, looking teary-eyed and pitiful, and clung to Erald Sparrow's shoulders:
"Just tonight has been extrely dangerous. If you hadn't suddenly arrived, Lin Xiaolu and I would've been completely obliterated right here. If it continues like this, we definitely won't be able to withstand the increasingly strong onslaught of the Remnant Beasts!"
"Stop the flattery! Let go first!"
Erald Sparrow frowned and shoved it away, "You need my help? How can I help?"
Undeterred by being pushed aside, Moke put on a pleasing smile on her cat face: "Well, you just need to contact the kingdom and ask for so backup forces. If it were the other officers with the floral emblem then..."
"Floral emblem? Keep dreaming."
Erald Sparrow gave her a sidelong glance: "And regrettably, I must tell you I cannot make contact with the kingdom right now, because I do not have a magic mirror on hand."
The cat-shaped fairy covered its mouth: "Can't make contact? Don't tell you're also a runaway..."
"I am not, I have approval from the royal court to act alone outside."
Erald Sparrow slightly raised her eyelids, cutting off its baseless conjecture: "The issue with communication is a personal matter of mine, and I do not wish to explain further at the mont."
The situation seed to have reached an impasse. Moke, unable to hope for reinforcents, reverted back to a state of utter despondency, while Erald Sparrow was contemplating sothing.
Truth be told, she was sowhat irritated, even considering whether she should, at the very least, punish the fairy in front of her—the cause of the trouble—under her authority as a "Patrol Officer." But considering her past experience with the unreliability of fairies, she knew that bullying them was the most pointless thing to do.
