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

Chapter 707 The protagonist should experience a change of teammates.

Hyacinths always seem to ask for help at the most inopportune moments.

Su Tianqing thought to herself.

This kid clearly has outstanding magical talent, but unfortunately she prefers to fight in close combat. To this day, all the magic she has learned is basic. It's hard to say whether she can be considered a qualified Shadow of the Stars.

After all, apart from the two exceptions, Cat and Rabbit, all the other Star Shadows have rich magical abilities, with Hyacinth being the only exception among the exceptions.

While Black Hole Cat and March Hare could be said to have acquired their magical knowledge entirely through comprehension and magic lessons found on the roadside, Hyacinth, despite having a stargazer as her guide, was able to surpass even Nightingale in terms of magic, which makes one feel somewhat puzzled.

Could it be that this kid is pretending to know nothing, waiting for me to let my guard down so he can suddenly strike me on the head...?

But this idea vanished when Nan Xiaofeng called, crying and begging for help:

"Waaaaah, Sister Tianqing, please save me! Waaaaah..."

"Oh dear, what happened, Xiaofeng? Don't cry, don't cry, tell me quickly."

Su Tianqing suppressed the laughter welling up inside her, relaxed, and spoke to Nan Xiaofeng on the other end of the phone.

Nan Jiayu was cooking in the kitchen when she heard a slight noise from the living room. She peeked out and was about to say something when she saw the fox girl make a shushing gesture. She tilted her head and shrank back into the kitchen.

Amidst Nan Xiaofeng's tearful pleas, Su Tianqing finally understood the true purpose of her phone call—

"Was that Xiaofeng on the phone just now?"

Carrying two plates of food to the dining table, Nan Jiayu took the rice bowl from Su Tianqing's hand while asking questions curiously.

The fox spirit nodded, added a bowl of rice to her bowl, and said:

"Yes, Xiaofeng said her best friend has been in a bad mood lately and isn't talking to her, so she came to ask me what to do."

"Hmm... I see... That's terrible." Nan Jiayu raised an eyebrow and nodded in reply.

Two dishes and a soup, a simple dinner.

Dinner was a little later than usual. The original plan was to have a meal with my companions on the villain's rooftop, but Hyacinth's rescue plan disrupted the plan, so we had to go home. As for the meal, we had to choose another time.

Su Tianqing picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks, chewed it carefully for a while, and then, wagging her fox tail, chatted with Nan Jiayu across the table about what she had overheard on the phone earlier:

Leaving aside Bai Ling's connection to magic, Su Tianqing only talked about Nan Xiaofeng's usual circle of friends and a series of things they had talked about. She also heard a lot of secrets about Nan Xiaofeng's childhood from her older sister, Nan Jiayu.

There's the legendary feat of using a box of firecrackers to create a hole in every dog's food bowl during a trip to the countryside for Chinese New Year, resulting in the entire village's dogs blocking the door; and the story of how Nan Jiayu, while studying in Shanghai, was chased by two crabs for over half an hour while collecting seashells at the beach...

They chatted easily and happily, filled with laughter, and Su Tianqing once again experienced what it meant to be unlucky from childhood to adulthood.

"Xiao Feng is much more popular than me."

After dinner, standing in front of the sink, Nan Jiayu took the washed bowl from Su Tianqing and put it into the sink, saying with a smile.

"Hmm... I think you're quite popular, Xiaoyu. Your roommates and many classmates think you're amazing at sports..." Su Tianqing said curiously, tilting her head.

"That might be true now, but back when I was in high school..."

As they talked, Su Tianqing learned more about the catgirl's past life. She had only heard about it briefly before, but she never expected that Xiaoyu had such a secret back in middle school.

The two chatted from the kitchen to the living room, and then from the living room to the bathroom, until Xiaoyu went into the study to start reading and studying. Only then did Su Tianqing sit alone on the sofa in the living room, browsing today's news and summarizing the information she had gained at the Hero Association.

First of all, Nan Xiaofeng asked me to meet him tomorrow, which is the weekend. Xiaoyu plans to study at the library tomorrow, so I shouldn't disturb her study time. I should just go and meet Nan Xiaofeng to help her out.

After all, the school has been teaching a rather difficult course these past two days. Even though I tutored Xiaoyu, she still only has a vague understanding of it. It would be good to strike while the iron is hot and go to the study room to study it carefully.

But Su Tianqing never expected that Bai Ling would be the first among them to fall into a state of despondency.

The fox girl turned off the television and closed her eyes. Her fox brain network, following a connecting thread, transcended the barriers of the astral plane and the physical plane, connecting with her Stargazer familiar—obtained from the secret manual—in a newly built property in an astral town.

Yue Tianxin opened her eyes, sat up from the Stargazer's small bed, and quickly understood the current situation through the Fox Brain Network.

This house in the Star Realm town was bought for Yue Tianxin by Su Tianqing at a high price (approximately 1000 Divine Stones). It is a one-bedroom, one-living room house with a kitchen and a private bathroom, and is considered a relatively high-end residence among the stargazers in the Star Realm town.

After all, Yue Tianxin's identity couldn't have been fabricated out of thin air. In addition, she did receive a generous bonus from the Star God Council, so it was reasonable for her to purchase a residence in the Star Realm to solidify her identity.

As for the matter that Nan Xiaofeng had mentioned, he was naturally aware of it—Bai Ling seemed to be in a daze because of the stargazer on the albatross's shoulder. If they wanted to find her in the astral realm, they could only have Yue Tianxin personally knock on Bai Ling's door to see what the white sable was struggling with.

"...To be honest, I don't even know where Bai Ling lives." Yue Tianxin muttered to herself.

To find out Bai Ling's condition, one must know where she is in her autistic state, but one has no idea where Bai Ling lives.

Unlike the real world, where you can easily find a place by teleporting and flying there, finding the home of a small stargazer in the vast star sector towns of the Astral Plane is like finding a needle in a haystack.

"I'm leaving this matter to you."

After conveying the details to Yue Tianxin Huhu and letting her switch back to automatic mode to figure out a solution herself, Su Tianqing's thoughts returned to the present world, and she opened her eyes on the sofa.

This way, they can work on two fronts simultaneously: one can comfort Nan Xiaofeng, while the other can check on Bai Ling's situation. This way, they can successfully handle these two kids who are currently in the worst state...

...It should work, right?

Su Tianqing began to imagine what might happen tomorrow, including but not limited to Nan Xiaofeng suddenly hugging her and crying, saying that Bai Ling didn't want her anymore and wanted to turn around and follow Yue Tianxin. In her confidante fox mode, she was unlikely to refuse her cries, so in the end she could only ask Yue Tianxin to bring a few more righteous magical girls.

In that case, Yue Tianxin's identity might need to be further solidified, otherwise... oh dear, just thinking about it makes me feel so troubled.

Tomorrow will be busy, Su Tianqing thought to herself.
