Chapter 1177 Dinner time (I’m really exhausted during the May Day holiday)

“I didn’t expect that the magical girl was an arms thief... If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed it.”

While driving, Yutong Ayano sighed helplessly, while Duanmuhuai also shrugged.

"Indeed, generally speaking, it is indeed unexpected..."

 Duanmu Huai has already heard from Yugiri Ayano about what happened. Not long ago, a large number of arms were lost in a nearby military base, including very dangerous weapons such as RPGs and landmines. Because of this, the higher-ups were very nervous and demanded a thorough investigation into the matter. In fact, both DA and AAA received notifications of co-investigation, but AAA did not take this matter particularly seriously. After all, they faced ordinary demon possessed persons. Neither knows how to use weapons.

Had it not been for hearing Xiaomi Homura's self-destruction, Yugiri Ayano would not have thought of this at all.

The result is good... It turns out that the culprit in the arms theft case that caused the superior to resign and sent dozens of unlucky people to the military court was actually a magical girl.

 The motivation of Xiao Meiyan for doing this is also very simple. Her ability is very powerful, but it is not offensive, so she needs weapons to destroy witches and familiars. At first, Xiao Meiyan chose homemade explosives, but later her companions complained that it was too scary to suddenly explode in front of her eyes, so she started to choose arms as a means of combat.

At first, Xiao Meiyan only stole the gang's firearms. Later, he became more and more courageous and stole them directly into the military base.

The reason why she was able to steal without being discovered is very simple. Xiaomei Yan's inherent ability is to stop time - and her shield after transformation is almost equal to infinite space, the kind that can fit an entire arsenal.

No wonder no matter how hard we investigated, we couldn't find any results, so we commissioned AAA, which specializes in investigating cases of demonic possession. However, at that time, AAA only thought that this might be an internal political conflict, not the work of the demonic possessor. So I didn't pay too much attention to it.

Well, it turned out that this was really within their jurisdiction.

Of course, it is definitely impossible to arrest Xiao Meiyan. However, in order to prevent those dozens of unlucky people from being sent to a military court for trial, Yugiri Ayano still persuaded Akatsuki Homura to hand over all the remaining weapons. As for the report to the military headquarters, it said that the devil possessed The incarcerated person used his special ability to steal weapons and flow them into the market in an attempt to create chaos, but was discovered by AAA and eliminated them, and then recovered the weapons and weapons.

From the perspective of AAA, it can be regarded as selling the other party a favor.

After all, this is not a dereliction of duty - facing a magical girl who can stop time, nothing you do is useless, right?

Although this left Xiao Meiyan with no weapons for fighting, Duanmu Huai patted his chest and promised that he would give Xiao Meiyan a better one.

To be honest, this made Yugiri Ayano very uneasy, but it was a pity that she couldn't intervene.

Had no choice but to go with Duanmuhuai.

“So, let’s go to Kamihama City tomorrow?”

“Well, I will take Kisara and the others with me. It’s always good to be prepared.”

"And Miss Qian Shu... After all, we still need DA's assistance in handling the arms theft case."

After sending Duanmuhuai home, Yugiri Ayano stepped on the accelerator and left, while Duanmuhuai stretched and then walked into the apartment. Arriving at the door of his apartment, Duanmu Huai took out his key and opened the door.

 “Ah, you’re back…”

As soon as Duanmuhuai entered the door, he saw Mami running over like a golden retriever welcoming her master home.

 As for Ba Mami, Duanmuhuai was responsible for the final disposal, and I didn’t seem to object to this. So Duanmuhuai took Ba Mami home directly.

But then again...

Duanmuhuai looked at Tomoe Mami up and down. At this moment, she was like a golden retriever sitting on her knees in the entrance hall wagging her tail at her owner. She was staring at him, and she didn't seem to be afraid of him at all.

 Is this normal? He had just beaten her up before, but now that this guy saw her, not only was he not afraid, but he even took the initiative to come up to her?

  Could it be that she has some special hidden hobby, just like the two goddesses... it would make the driver uncomfortable if she doesn't smoke?

 Forget it, it has nothing to do with me.

Duanmuhuai threw aside the thoughts in his mind and nodded to Tomoe Asami.

 “I’m back, what about Mu Geng?”

 “Ah, Miss Kisara, she...”

 “Boom!”

Before Tomoe Mami finished speaking, she heard a heavy chopping sound coming from the room. Duan Muhuai walked into the living room curiously. In the open kitchen of the living room, he saw Mu Geng with his back to her, holding a hand in his hand. A kitchen knife, cutting cabbage. She raised the knife and cut the cabbage in half like a human head, then chopped it into pieces again...

 “Ah...you’re back.”

As if he had just noticed Duanmu Huai's existence at this moment, Mu Geng turned his head and stared at Duanmu Huai with a pair of dark red eyes without highlights like dim glass balls.

 “I’m cooking, wait a moment, it’ll be ready soon.”

As he spoke, Mu Geng raised the kitchen knife in his hand high, and then dropped it heavily.

 “Boom!”

At this time Tomoe Mami also came over and said a little embarrassedly.

“Actually, I want to help, but Ms. Kisara said that she alone is enough...”

 “Then...whatever.”

I don’t know why, Duanmu Huai always felt that the air in the living room was a bit heavy, but he was too lazy to care about such trivial matters, so he sat down on the sofa and turned on the TV to watch. Tomoe Asami stood there for a moment, and then went to the kitchen again. Soon, the heavy sound of chopping vegetables disappeared and turned into a somewhat rapid sound of chopping vegetables.

 At the same time, the sound of the kettle sounded.

 “Woo————!”

Of course, this has nothing to do with Duanmuhuai.

　Not long after that, Kisara and Tomoe Asami also prepared dinner, and then the three of them ate dinner together. To be honest, Duanmu Huai already has some understanding of Mu Geng's craftsmanship. How should I put it, it's not too good or bad, it's edible, but if you want to say it's delicious, it'll make you laugh in public. With the level of clothing, that's impossible.

On the other hand, Duanmuhuai is somewhat of an exception to the cooking skills of Ba Mami. After all, she is quite skilled at it.

 “I didn’t expect you could cook.”

 “Ah, um...I often cook.”

“Is this so? I thought you usually ate outside.”

"I basically eat alone at home, and occasionally QB will accompany me..." Having said this, Tomoe Asami lowered her head.

“Actually, I haven’t had dinner with other people like this for a long time.”

"oh………"

Hearing Ba Mami's answer, Duanmu Huai was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that Mami's information stated that both of her parents were dead, and she had basically no contact with her relatives.

Hmm, thinking about it this way, it seems that she can only eat alone. From a certain perspective, it is quite lonely, isn't it?

“That...although it’s not a reward, can you let me cook while I live here?”

　　　　???”

 Hearing Ba Mami’s suggestion, Duanmu Huai was stunned for a moment.

 Sister, do you have a little misunderstanding about your position? We are here to monitor you, not to take you in. Why are you so proactive?

 “I don’t care.”

Duanmuhuai couldn't ask for someone to cook for him.

 “Wait, master, what about me?”

However, Mu Geng was obviously unhappy. She was biting her chopsticks, staring at Duanmu Huai dissatisfied and asking, while Duanmu Huai shrugged his shoulders.

"You two can do it together, or take turns. What's the problem?"

Since Duanmu Huai couldn't cook anyway, he had no interest in it. In other worlds, Duan Muhuai would either leave this kind of thing to the maid or simply eat out.

 Ask him, a grown man, to cook and wash dishes... well, to put it bluntly, he is just too lazy to do it.

At the front end of the journey, Muhuai also mainly eats takeout. After all, one person washes vegetables, cooks, eats, and washes dishes. It’s very troublesome no matter how you think about it.

It’s more convenient to take out, just throw it away after eating.

　　　…………”

 Hearing Duanmuhuai's bored answer, Kisara and Tomoe Asami looked at each other.

“So, one, three and five are mine, and two, four and six are yours?”

 “What about Sunday?”

 “Let the master choose!”

"……Ok, no problem."

  “…………What are you doing?”

Looking at the two people facing each other in front of him, Duanmu Huai shook his head. However, at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, then the door outside opened, and then a cheerful and lively voice came.

“Hey, Mr. Qian Shu is here...ah, you are having dinner as expected, add me, add me!”

As he spoke, Qian Shu, who was wearing uniform, also ran over happily, threw his schoolbag on the sofa, and then took the bowl and chopsticks by himself - this person has been eating for a while, first Duanmu Huai invited her to come with him, but now Qian Shu will come over as soon as he gets off work.

 After all, if you have dinner here, you don’t have to go back to cook. This is Qian Shu’s exact words.

Duanmuhuai deeply agrees with this.

Soon, the dinner ended. Duanmu Huai and Qian Shu sat on the sofa watching TV and drinking tea, while Kisara and Tomoe Asami were washing dishes in the kitchen...

 Well, the division of labor is clear.

"Oh, right."

At this moment, Duanmu Huai remembered something and spoke hurriedly.

“Since you are all here, let me tell you that we are going to Kamihama City to investigate tomorrow.”

“Is it the rumor about magical girls?”

Hearing this, Qian Shu also jumped up excitedly, while Duanmu Huai nodded.

"Yes, we suspect there are other issues behind that rumor... Asami, do you know anything about this?"

"this………"

Hearing Duanmuhuai’s question, Mami frowned and wiped her hands, thinking for a moment.

"I haven't gone there yet, so I don't know, ah...but it seems that QB can't get close to Kamihama City."

 “What does it mean that there is no way to get close?”

“It means that as long as it gets close to Kamihama City, it will lose consciousness.”

Tomoe Mami also quickly gave the answer.

"QB came to me before and asked me to help investigate what happened in Kamihama City. At that time, he showed me that at the highway intersection leading to Kamihama City, QB just took a few steps forward, and then It fell to the ground and became motionless, as if it had encountered some invisible obstacle. It wasn't until I picked it back up that it regained consciousness."

 “Oh? Is there such a thing?”

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai's eyes lit up.

“In other words, QB can’t go to that place?”

 “Yes...that’s right.”

 “Ohhh……”

 This is going to be interesting.
