Get off work and become a magical girl

Chapter 34 Claw Marks
This elderly lady chief looks about 60 years old, with deep facial features, bright eyes, some wrinkles on the corners of her eyes and cheeks, her face is strict yet pleasant.

She was wearing a dark brown woolen coat, her white blond hair was combed neatly behind her head, she looked quite capable, and she was looking at Lin Yun with a smile.

Westerner?
Lin Yun had some guesses in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud.Instead, he nodded calmly: "Hello, Director, what should I call you?"

"You can just call me Moss, the titles are all false names."

The woman said so, with a calm tone: "Please sit down, I believe we will have a lot of common language."

Lin Yun followed her words and sat on the chair in front of the desk, exhaled, raised his eyes and said, "I came here today not for anything else, but to get the truth."

"There are many truths in the Different Policy Bureau that the public doesn't know. I don't know which one you need?"

Moss waved one hand sideways and made a gesture of invitation: "Maybe, we can talk about your situation first?"

"Your bureau should have known about my situation, so I won't go into too much detail."

Lin Yun nodded, appropriately making his tone a little nervous, and then cut directly to the topic: "At the funeral two years ago, I met a young woman, and she told me that my wife is actually a magical girl."

"Afterwards, I started sorting out my wife's belongings, and found a secret diary, which indeed recorded her as a magical girl. Moreover, according to what was recorded in that diary, she had actually noticed it before she died. Some hidden danger."

Three points of this statement are true, seven points are false, only the information he has learned is true, and the way to get the information is completely fabricated by him.In order to prevent the other party from doubting his words, Lin Yun also tried his best to keep his words and deeds in harmony, and kept eye contact with Moss to confirm the true feelings in the words.

"I'm just an ordinary person. I can't do anything in the face of this extraordinary existence. I can only treat it as a sudden disaster. Even if I know that there are other reasons for her death, I can't investigate. The last thing I can do is follow her. The will to raise our children well."

He stared closely at Moss's eyes: "It's just... you already know that I accidentally noticed that even my child has become a magical girl."

"My wife died because she became a magical girl. What about my child? I can't predict her future fate. If something happens to her... I'm sorry, I feel suffocated just thinking about that future. "

"So I have to ask you guys. I think I have the right to know who the murderer is? And, can you protect my daughter?"

After finishing this passage in a row, he let out a long sigh of relief and lowered his eyes: "Sorry, I may be a little emotional."

He doesn't expect to deceive the other party completely by lies, so most of these words are true feelings.The only difference is that the real him doesn't believe that the Different Strategy Bureau can protect his daughter, and has already chosen to fight in person.

"...I'm sorry to bring you back to the sad past."

After listening to his statement, Moss closed her eyes, pondered for a moment and then said: "As for what you said, the murderer who killed your wife is actually the reason why I want to meet you alone. Miss Ying's husband, Mr. Lin Yun .”

"Why?" Lin Yun sensed the special meaning in her words.

Moss still closed her eyes, with a serious expression on her face: "Because this is just my guess, and it is not convenient to say it outside of private occasions. For the outside world, especially in the different policy bureau, the following remarks can be said to be very contrary to our policy." purpose and philosophy."

"What do you mean?" Lin Yun's eyes narrowed slightly.

Opening her eyes, Moss folded her hands on the table and interlocked her fingers: "...Mr. Lin Yun, do you think that all the magical girls in this world represent justice and fight to protect people?"

"……Is not it?"

Lin Yun was stunned by her words, and a little vigilant arose in his heart: "If there were no magical girls to come forward, ordinary people would never be able to live so easily."

Although he retorted with his mouth, he had another answer in his heart to Mousse's question.It's just that "Lin Yun" has no reason to know.

"I really hope that's the case, and that's why the Bureau of Different Strategies was established, but obviously, this is not the case."

Moss did not doubt that she had him, and was looking at Lin Yun: "Magical girls fight for protection, mainly because of the emotional bias brought about by real social relationships, and more importantly, the management and constraints of the country. In fact, if a If a magical girl abandons morality and conscience, and dares to fight against the country, it is entirely feasible for her to exert this harmful power on human beings, and even their companions."

"...Unbelievable." Lin Yun agreed.

"Yes, unbelievable, but reasonable."

Moss nodded: "Because of this, among the magical girls, there will be rebels and even defectors."

"There are magical girls who break away from the constraints of the magical kingdom and use this power to do evil, hurt others, seize power, and do evil unscrupulously."

"In recent years, there have been such a group of magical girls gathered together, secretly fighting against the country, while brewing conspiracy for certain goals. I don't even know why they can walk with the remnant beast, which is the same as the remnant beast... No, They are more dangerous and must be avoided."

"And according to some of their characteristics, as well as their self-proclaimed, such a group of defected magical girls are called 'claw marks'."

This sentence made Lin Yun feel surprised in his heart.

What Moss said earlier, he actually knows that there are indeed defected magical girls in the magical kingdom, but as far as he knows, such magical girls will be marked as wanted objects in the kingdom, and most of them will be chased and arrested by the investigation team, and there are very few defected successful.

As for the number of people so large that they form an organization, it is even unheard of to walk with remnant beasts. "Claw marks" was a term he had never heard before.Never knew such a group of people existed.

So he properly expressed his doubts and asked, "My wife's diary has never mentioned this name."

Moss shook her head and said: "Because of their appearance, that is, in recent years, even I only know of it because of some coincidences. It is normal that Ms. Ying did not record it in her diary in her early years."

"You mean, my wife's death is very likely..." Lin Yun frowned.

"I think Ms. Sakura's death should be related to the claw marks, because according to her contacts, Ms. Sakura is a very powerful magical girl who has been fighting for many years. In theory, if there is a beast that she can't defeat, Then such a remnant beast has already destroyed Fangting City."

Lin Yun couldn't understand what Moss said.

As a magical girl, Anya is strong enough to deal with ordinary beasts effortlessly, and she often attacks alone, otherwise she would not have been stationed in Fangting City lightly for more than [-] years.

As for the current strange appearance in Fangting City, if it is really the work of this group of magical girls named "Claw Mark", it can be explained accordingly.

It's just that he still doesn't understand some things, such as the present moment.

"Then why are you telling me this?"

Looking at Mousse, Lin Yun asked slowly: "If it is really risky to say these things, why did you tell me, an ordinary person?"

"... As I said, we will have a lot of common topics. Because seeing you, I can't help but think of myself."

Moss still had a kind face, but there was an indescribable loneliness in her words:

"My daughter, when she was still alive, was also a magical girl."
