"Canna?"
In the empty reception room, a voice with a hint of chanical static ca from the magic mirror in Erald Sparrow's hand: "Are you sure that's the code na?"
Within the mirror, a round doll struggled to hold the magic mirror with its paws, and spoke to confirm with Erald Sparrow.
As for Erald Sparrow herself, she leaned against a tightly shut wooden door, expressionlessly looking at the magic mirror in her hand, nodding her head, her azure hair swaying:
"Yes, that's right, can you check it? I can't confirm if this code na is genuine, just deduced it might co from Claw Mark based on the information she revealed, but other than so unverified claims, there's no other substantial evidence at the mont."
After leaving the dining table, unable to suppress the Heart's Gem, Erald Sparrow rushed to the next empty reception room at top speed, then locked the door behind her.
Unable to reverse her transformation because of the uncontrollable Heart's Gem, she took out the magic mirror she carried and contacted Molu.
There was no other reason; the only one who could handle this matter in Fangting City at the mont was Molu.
She had no idea about the strength of this so-called "Canna", suspected to co from Claw Mark, but she was clear about her own level—if Sparrow ca again, she wouldn't stand a chance, not to ntion that this person was obviously much stronger than Sparrow.
"Let see... just wait a mont, I need to have my assistant contact a friend from the Magical Affairs Institute," Molu's voice was sowhat ethereal, probably the body in the faraway realm was doing sothing else, yet she did not forget to emphasize on the word "friend": "You might have to wait two to three minutes."
"All right." Erald Sparrow nodded expressionlessly, "Thank you for your trouble."
"It's a trivial matter, still so distance from being troubleso."
The doll in the mirror waved its paws: "But what exactly happened over there? A Magical Girl from Claw Mark invading the Abnormal Strategy Bureau directly isn't sothing common. As far as I know, White Wolf and her subordinates always avoid contact with ordinary people."
Erald Sparrow hesitated for a long while, but ultimately decided to concoct an excuse about "being caught on the street for dining and dashing", to explain the sequence of events. She added at the end: "This is the process I've heard about, the truth still needs to be verified."
"Although it sounds a bit strange... it doesn't seem impossible."
Molu's reaction was surprisingly calm; she didn't question the story told by Erald Sparrow but instead seriously analyzed: "Though most Magical Girls in the material world are familiar with human cities, the natives of the realm and those old-tirs who have lived too long in the realm really aren't clear about these things. I've even had researchers under my command get lost in the material world before, by the ti they were found they had been wandering holess for half a month."
"Are people from your realm really okay?"
"As I've said, it's 'our realm' you should be speaking of! You need to show so unity, young one."
Molu spoke earnestly: "See, your current predicant is the result of not listening to your elders. I've been advising you to accept treatnt earlier; you questioned and delayed, and now when a real ergency occurs, you still co to for help. Now, shouldn't you reconsider the deal I offered?"
"I'll consider it afterwards." Erald Sparrow replied without expression, "So did you find out anything about that person?"
"Don't rush, in such a short ti I shouldn't have... ah, found it, Canna."
Molu's sentence was cut short and, accompanied by the sound of flipping pages, she thoughtfully said: "Hmm, indeed there is such a person."
"Is it an imposter?" Erald Sparrow asked.
"Shouldn't be."
The voice over the communication slowed down slightly, indicating Molu was reading sothing: "The results I got here show that 'Canna' really was one of the Magical Girls who rebelled and fled with White Wolf more than a decade ago. Before the defection, she was an arbitrator at the Ministry of Finance and also a cardholder, and it seems she knew White Wolf quite early on."
"...She didn't lie?" Erald Sparrow was sowhat puzzled.
"Not everyone is as scheming as you, young rascal," the doll in the mirror shook its head: "Magical Girls are the very symbol of purity and kindness, and it's the sa for young girls, and as an elder of high esteem, I too possess an untarnished and beautiful character. Among the renegade Magical Girls, there are quite a few with simple minds."
Any trace of emotion vanished from Erald Sparrow's already expressionless face.
"I am willing to take your word for it, Chief."
She nodded her head: "Setting aside so contentious issues, it ans that the one who ca to Fangting City is very likely a renegade Magical Girl with combat abilities of a cardholder and abundant battle experience."
"In other words, we're talking about an enemy whose strength alone is not the least bit inferior to 'Moth', and could even be greater, and the current Magical Girl squad in Fangting City put together might not be a match for her. If she wants to do sothing next, there's no one here who can stop her."
"So, Chief, what do you think the purpose of a Magical Girl from Claw Mark might be for appearing in Fangting City at this ti, if she really is up to sothing?"
The other party claid to be "looking for Cornflower", but even if it's to find soone, there must be a certain goal that needs to be accomplished by finding that person. According to Erald Sparrow's own speculation, the person coming to find her is probably not for anything else, but instead for...
