Chapter 210 Meeting Up with Online Friends
Nan Xiaofeng felt that her older sister seemed to have changed a lot recently.
"Did you know that when Jia Yu was studying in Shanghai, she was actually quite withdrawn? Not many people in the school were willing to be friends with a cat-like beastman."
While sitting in a dim sum restaurant eating a basket of siu mai, Nan Xiaofeng chatted with her companions about some secrets about her older sister.
"I've heard that before. People in Shanghai are very prejudiced against orcs." The person who spoke was Li Kexin.
"It's said that there were originally no orcs in Shanghai. Rumor has it that the orcs that arrived since the millennium have impacted Shanghai's population structure, so the locals are quite hostile towards these outsiders..."
"Back then, Sister Jiayu almost never wore skirts, and she even had short hair for a while. Although she wasn't as cute as she is now, she was still quite cool."
"Short-haired Jia Yu Jie? It seems to suit her temperament perfectly."
"And she's incredibly good at fighting! I heard she took down several robbers who attempted to rob her in the middle of the night with her bare hands, and it even made the news in the Shanghai newspapers."
Nan Xiaofeng spoke with great enthusiasm and animated expression.
Everyone was listening to her chat, but suddenly their gazes all shifted to the entrance of another dim sum restaurant across the street, looking at the two small figures walking out side by side.
The deep blue catgirl and the golden fox were inseparable, chatting and laughing, and even wearing matching outfits.
The group exchanged glances, nodded in unison, and each pulled a pair of sunglasses from their pockets.
The Fox Squad, all members, are on the attack!
...
"Little Fish, do you like fish balls? Those look pretty good."
"I prefer larger pieces of fish fillet, and the fish balls are alright too."
"You can't just eat meat; eating some vegetables is good for your health."
"It's just because the weather is sunny that you don't like eating vegetables, right?"
"No way! Little Fish, you're still growing, you need to eat some vegetables."
"...I'm way past that age!"
The conversation between the two people, though not enough to elicit stares from passersby, did bring a knowing smile to their faces.
Su Tianqing held a pair of bamboo chopsticks and stuffed the vegetables and fish balls from the lunchbox into the cat girl's mouth, wagging her tail happily.
"Is it tasty?"
"It's delicious. The cabbages here are also delicious. You should try them, Tianqing."
"Really? Let me try it..."
While feeding each other the stew they were eating, Su Tianqing recalled the purpose of her trip out today.
Yesterday afternoon, I confessed to Xiaoyu my identity as Xinyuehu.
In my original plan, Xiaoyu would have been very angry and scolded me, or even reprimanded me loudly, before accepting reality after I comforted her, and it might have taken her several days to recover.
But Xiaoyu wasn't angry as he had imagined. Instead, she showed understanding and even strengthened the bond between them.
What? You're asking what happened last night?
If I were to reveal it, wouldn't the world be destroyed? It's a secret that can't be told.
In short, the fox and cat villain duo finally confirmed each other's identities, and naturally thought of a certain companion whose presence was so low that she seemed almost forgotten—
"Rabbit is also in Guangzhou, let's go meet up with her in person."
Su Tianqing proposed this plan, and Nan Jiayu readily agreed.
Anyway, there's not much to do for the rest of my days in Guangzhou. I'll rest a bit today, go to the wildlife park tomorrow, and then head home the day after tomorrow.
Furthermore, since the righteous magical girls already know each other inside and out, the villainous allies naturally need to meet in person as well! This will be helpful for their future villainous activities!
Cheshire Rabbit's reaction to Su Tianqing's invitation to meet in person was quite strong in the Divine Stone's magical communication system:
"Meeting directly like this? Wouldn't that be a bit too...too rushed?"
"Don't worry, I've already met with Cat, and Rabbit, you're in Guangzhou too, so we can arrange to hang out together~"
Watching the lively conversation between the foxes in the Divine Stone Communication, Cheshire Rabbit felt like a rodent being directly exposed to blinding sunlight, too timid to even speak loudly.
But since it was an invitation from a companion, and the other person was a good friend with whom she had always gotten along well, Xia Taotao mustered up her courage, changed into a dress that she thought looked pretty, and went to find the communication location on the Divine Stone.
But when Rabbit Girl nervously knocked on the door of the dessert shop's private room, the cat and fox sitting inside made Xia Taotao tremble all over, and she was momentarily terrified.
"Huh? Tian, Tianqing? And Jiayu? You two..."
"Tao Tao?... "
Upon recognizing the visitor, Nan Jiayu paused for a few seconds, but quickly showed a relieved expression.
"...I see, that makes sense."
"The magical girl's sensory shielding is truly remarkable. I didn't even notice a companion so close to me," Nan Jiayu thought to herself.
But Xia Taotao was even more astonished, especially when she realized what the situation meant. The rabbit girl's social anxiety and cyberbullying suddenly teetered on the brink of a relapse.
Were all my actions and expressions while in Cheshire Rabbit mode being watched by someone I knew?!
Thinking of my eccentric laughter and the release of my inner true nature when I transformed into the Cheshire Bunny, the expression on my face as I chased after magical girls, smashing and mashing them, and then realizing that my villainous ally had always been my classmate—
"Aba aba aba ah wah wah wah zhi zhi zhi zhi wu ji kun jin kao tang tang tang—"
"Oh no! TaoTao's drawing style has become very messy!!"
……
The treatment of social anxiety and cyberbullying is a bit complicated. Su Tianqing spent a lot of effort to bring Xia Taotao back from her very messy style and get her to sit in front of her and chat steadily.
"In short, I am Heart Moon Fox, Little Fish is Hellcat, and Peach, you are Cheshire Rabbit!"
"Is that right?"
The golden fox wagged its tail and smiled at the rabbit girl in front of it and the cat girl beside it.
Xia Taotao was still trembling on the verge of terror, but it was much better than when she had her social anxiety attack earlier. However, she still had her rabbit ears drooping and was timidly taking small bites of a macaron.
The cat girl didn't respond, but just nodded in agreement.
After recovering slightly from the shock, Rabbit Girl still felt like she was in a dream.
Tianqing and Xinyuehu are the same person... If that's the case, the similarity between the two is indeed quite large. The reason why we couldn't recognize them is all due to the sensory shielding that magical girls have.
"I never expected that you, Tianqing, would be Xinyuehu..."
After taking a sip of the juice drink the clerk brought in, Xia Taotao tacitly joined the barrier between the two of them that blocked out language and cognition, and whispered.
Su Tianqing wagged her tail happily.
"Yes, you're surprised, aren't you? Little Fish was also very surprised when she first found out."
"However, Tianqing knew I was Hellcat a long time ago," Nan Jiayu added.
The three villains exchanged glances, huddled together, and started chatting while eating desserts.
It was like meeting an online friend; there was so much to talk about, especially after a major battle. The topics of conversation were endless.
"Speaking of which, now that we've come to Guangzhou, shouldn't we leave a lasting impression on the residents before we leave?"
Suddenly, Su Tianqing thought of something, swallowed the red velvet cake in her mouth, and said to the two of them.
Xia Taotao was munching on her second macaron when she blinked, a look of confusion appearing in her blood-red rabbit eyes.
"A deep impression?" Nan Jiayu chimed in, tilting her head curiously, her cat tail curving into a question mark.
"What exactly left a deep impression on you, Tianqing? Could you elaborate?"
"Hehehe...of course, it'll be our usual style!"
The little fox revealed a sly smile, flicked its tail, and pointed to the screen showing Hyacinth and the other two being interviewed by the Suicheng Heroes Association.
"See this? It's a hyacinth."
"How about we go find them and have some fun tonight?"
