Chapter 21 Magic - Star Silver: Thank you very much!
At the same time, Magic Star Silver also followed the crowd and left the headquarters.
Her memory was pretty good; even without Lin Xuanyi leading the way, she was able to find her way back to the brainwashing department.
……
Leaving the feverish, murky atmosphere of the headquarters and returning to the brainwashing department, Magic Star Silver felt as if she had come back to life.
"Ah, really..."
In any case, her plan with the evil doctor ultimately succeeded. She successfully deceived everyone, pretending that she had fallen.
She can continue living now. She can also leave the Black Rose headquarters and go home.
but……
"But what am I going to do now... I feel like I've lost something very important... Ah... never mind, I'm really going to die..."
She dragged her heavy steps toward the lounge:
"That bastard said I can move around freely now, but I have to be available whenever he calls me."
So I'll go home in a little while. Xia Hua must be worried because I didn't go home last night...
……
As for why she waited a while instead of now, it was because she was exhausted both physically and mentally and wanted to rest properly; otherwise, she wouldn't have the strength to walk.
Then, the lounge.
Magic Star Silver, who entered the room, was stunned.
She saw that there were already people in the lounge.
It was a woman with slightly messy hair and a gloomy face, sitting there typing on her computer while eating potato chips.
Upon seeing Magic Star Silver, she quickly put down her snacks, gave it a shy, ingratiating smile, and greeted it.
"Ah, Magic Star Silver, you're back."
"Yes, I'm back...wait a minute!"
Magic Star Silver subconsciously responded to her, then suddenly realized what she meant.
"You, you bastard, aren't you that female assistant from yesterday? Didn't Lin Xuanyi discipline you?!"
She exclaimed and stepped forward, looking Ida Kuroko up and down. She was practically ready to pinch her assistant's cheek.
"Ahaha, well, how should I put it..." Just like any socially awkward idiot, the female assistant turned her head away, avoiding eye contact with Magic Star Silver:
"Although it may seem like a disciplinary action on the surface, it's actually quite complicated."
Magic Star Silver: "?!?! What do you mean? You... are you saying this is fake, that you're lying to me?!"
"Well, that's what I'm saying—whoaah—it was all the Doctor's idea! I was against it! I'm innocent! Don't point your wand at me!"
Please, I'm still your fan! You're a magical girl, right? Magical girls can't just kill innocent people!!!
……
At first, the female assistant tried to stall, but by this time, Magic Star Silver was no longer an ordinary person.
With a gloomy expression, she pulled out her wand and began charging it with a hissing sound, startling Hei Zi into quickly revealing the truth. Then she shifted the blame to Lin Xuanyi.
"...I see."
After the truth was revealed, the female assistant crouched down with her head in her hands, waiting to be bullied.
But it didn't.
Magic Star Silver muttered something, then dragged his weary steps to the bed and collapsed onto it.
Her behavior, on the contrary, made Kuroko feel very uneasy.
"Hey, don't be discouraged, don't look like you've lost all hope!"
Black Rose has great benefits and is a good villainous female cadre!
Even if you fall from grace, I will still believe you are the best magical girl.
She hurriedly went to Magic Star Silver's bedside. Then she uttered words of comfort that were incoherent and disjointed.
However, due to her poor social skills, her attempts to comfort her were completely ineffective.
"Um, this..."
While she was panicking and at a loss, the door to the lounge opened again, and the doctor walked in with a calm expression.
"Ah, Doctor!"
The female assistant quickly greeted Lin Xuanyi, "Um, I mean..."
"It's alright. Move aside, assistant."
"Yes... but you won't bully Xingyin anymore, right?" Is this the power of idol worship?
Despite being a pushover, Hei Zi wore a wary expression, as if he was worried that Lin Xuanyi would bully someone.
"If I don't bully her, am I supposed to bully you?"
"Waaah, then don't bully Hoshigami-chan, bully me instead."
Unfortunately, she was ultimately just a hater. After pinching her plump, collagen-rich cheeks, Lin Xuanyi pulled her aside. Then, he took out a bank card from his dimensional pocket and tossed it in front of Magic Star Silver.
"The password is six zeros. Please reset it. Starting today, this will be your salary card."
Magic Star Silver: "..."
Hearing Lin Xuanyi say this, the somewhat dazed magical girl raised her head and looked at Lin Xuanyi.
Lin Xuanyi didn't care what she looked like and continued:
"The six million yen we agreed on has already been deposited into your account. In addition, there is an extra advance on your first month's salary."
"Take the money and go get something good to eat."
"Ah...oh."
Hearing Lin Xuanyi say this, Magic Star Silver came to her senses and took the bank card that Lin Xuanyi handed over.
Although Lin Xuanyi had promised before, she still felt a sense of unreality when the money was actually in her hands.
Actually, you really do keep your word?
He's clearly a bad guy who loves to lie. He even pretended to be crazy and threatened to tear himself to pieces, but when it comes to money, he actually kept his promise?
She didn't quite believe it.
Could it be that the card he handed me was empty, with nothing inside?
When I excitedly checked, I saw a string of 0000 in the card.
If Lin Xuanyi had any sense of humor, he might have left a few hundred yen in change, to indicate the cheapness of Magic Star Silver.
If I confront him about this, he will mercilessly laugh at me, once again throwing my self-esteem to the ground and trampling it ruthlessly.
Lin Xuanyi sensed Magic Star Silver's concerns, gave a soft hum, and then said to her:
"If you're worried, you can check it out."
"..."
Although it was somewhat rude, the magical girl gritted her teeth and checked it on her phone.
The query result was the same as Lin Xuanyi's: the balance in the card was eleven million yen.
In addition to the six million as a bonus, there was also five million as an advance payment for the first month's salary.
"So much... Black Rose's salary and benefits are really good... and they didn't lie to me, they really kept their promise and gave me a lot of money."
Magic Star Silver couldn't help but think this way.
Under the magic of money, morale, which had plummeted to rock bottom, quickly recovered. The sluggish mind began to function again, and Magic Star Silver regained its vitality.
More importantly, her trust in Lin Xuanyi increased significantly.
Lin Xuanyi: "So."
Noticing her change, the evil doctor pressed his advantage and asked:
"Nothing else to say, Dark Starsilver? Don't you want to say something?"
Magic Star Silver thought for a few seconds, then rolled out of bed, crossed her beautiful legs, clasped her hands together, and bowed deeply to Lin Xuan and his group:
"Thank you so much."
