So, without admitting to being a Magical Girl, what would be the most appropriate thing to say? Claim to be a Magician, or continue to pretend to be an ordinary person and insist it was a case of mistaken identity?
After brief consideration, Lin Yun decided on the latter.
Claiming to be a Magician would inevitably lead to questions like "What are you doing hiding in an alley?" which would undoubtedly be harder to explain. By claiming to be an ordinary person, he just had to firmly deny knowing anything about "Magic Power".
He was confident enough to hide his own magic power without using it, confident that no matter how the other party checked, they would find he was just an "ordinary person".
"I don't know what you're talking about."
Thus, Lin Yun kept a straight face, feigning slight displeasure, and turned the tables, "You look like you might be a Magical Girl. There are Remnant Beasts hurting people behind us, so why aren't you fighting them instead of stopping , a passerby?"
"Huh?"
His retort made the blonde Magical Girl raise an eyebrow, then she scornfully said, "There are three of us on this mission, and my two teammates have already gone to deal with the Remnant Beasts. I'm here to stop you, a Magician who clearly doesn't seem like a good person. Is there a problem with that?"
...Is this girl's brain not working properly?
Lin Yun couldn't help but wonder that in his mind. After all, she had quickly given away how many companions she had after just one question from him.
"I don't look like a good person?"
Although he couldn't voice this doubt, he continued to bla her, "Such baseless speculation without any evidence, if you are really a Magical Girl, how can you make such accusations? Falsely accusing innocent citizens, don't you feel ashad?"
"How is this false accusation!"
The blonde girl's eyes widened as she pointed at Lin Yun, "I clearly felt magic power fluctuations coming from you!"
"Magic power fluctuations?"
Lin Yun looked at her straight on, with a moderate expression of confusion on his face, "What is that?"
"You don't know?" The blonde girl seed taken aback, gradually lowering her pointing finger, "You actually don't know what magic power is?"
After a mont of astonishnt, she stood stunned for a bit, then suddenly raised her eyebrows as if maddened, raising her voice, "Do you think I'm a fool!"
"Hmph, forget it, I'll capture you first, and let Bai Ji and the others judge who you truly are later."
The blonde girl smoothed her eyebrows, once again speaking with so arrogance, "If you surrender now, I won't have to rough you up."
"I told you, I don't know what you're talking about!"
Sensing trouble, Lin Yun thought about his next move while backing away, "Careful, I'll report you to the Abnormal Strategy Bureau!"
"The Abnormal Strategy Bureau can't touch !"
The blonde girl charged at Lin Yun with a fierce deanor, "Don't think of running away!"
It seed there was no room for maneuvering, better to transform now.
Lin Yun sighed inwardly, reaching for the Flower of the Heart on his chest.
Whether it was to counter her attack or to prove his identity, he would probably have to transform to continue. Thus, he placed his hand on the Flower of the Heart, ready to activate it.
——Thud!
"Aaaah!"
Yet, those preparations ultimately went unused.
Before he could make his next move, he heard a sharp noise followed by a scream,
and saw that the blonde girl in front of him stumbled over a trash can unexpectedly positioned at the edge of the alley, losing her balance, she took a couple of hops to the side, then toppled over.
And the direction she fell in was toward the very obstacle that had tripped her.
Clang!
In Lin Yun's field of vision, the blonde girl plunged straight into the trash can, her upper body buried inside with only her legs still flailing on the outside.
And for a mont, the alley was silent once again.
