Chapter 274 Talk Therapy Backfired Big
"Miss Zixuan, do you like snacks?"
I don't usually eat it, but I wouldn't say I hate it either.
"Oh, that's great!"
Su Tianqing smiled and took a bag of snacks from Bai Ling, spreading them out on the coffee table.
Potato chips, preserved plums, drinks, dried tofu, and all sorts of snacks are available.
"Then let's try this! It's my absolute favorite jelly—"
Su Tianqing pulled out a small bag of sucking jelly from the pile of snacks and showed it to Zixuan across the coffee table.
Zixuan sighed with a wry smile, but still accepted the jelly offered by the golden-haired fox girl and sipped it slowly.
I had nothing to do today—Little Fish said she was going to practice some coordinated tactics with Rabbit and Dog that we might use later, and I happened to have some free time, so I wandered around the port city.
Who would have thought that Bai Ling would make such a strange request to Yue Tianxin, so she had no choice but to transform into the confidante fox, Miss Dandelion, to visit the true form of the Purple Shi.
Even she herself did not expect that this girl named Zixuan would be grounded by Hailanshi and the others.
"Aquamarine and the others have gone too far."
Even now, the white ferret elf, munching on potato chips, hasn't stopped denouncing Aquamarine.
"But that's not quite right, Senior Bai Ling," Yue Tianxin, the fox spirit, said to Bai Ling as she sat on Su Tianqing's shoulder.
"Tianqing just analyzed it as well. Aquamarine did this to protect Miss Purple Shi, otherwise Hyacinth and the others would be even more suspicious."
"That's certainly true..."
Bai Ling scratched her head helplessly and said softly,
"But no matter what, we shouldn't ignore Ziyingshi's personal wishes, let alone leave her at home to rest."
"It feels like an overcorrection," Su Tianqing remarked.
Zixuan gave a helpless smile, and stopped sucking on the jelly, seemingly lost in thought.
Su Tianqing took the opportunity to glance at her a few more times.
This was the first time I had ever seen her face under the veil. It had a unique girlish charm, and compared to her thick hair, it made her look quite adorable.
Who would have thought that the mysterious sniper Ziyingshi, who wears a hooded mask, is actually a well-dressed homebody in her daily life?
"It's alright, Zixuan."
Su Tianqing spoke softly, as if trying to soothe her emotions.
"If you have any concerns, you can tell us, and I'll try to find a solution for you."
"It's not so much that I'm worried... it's just... I'm really confused. I can't understand why Xin Yuehu did this..."
With Su Tianqing's words, Zixuan took the opportunity to express her own thoughts.
Sure enough, although she seemed to be socially awkward like Rabbit, she was actually just shy. Once she gained trust with snacks and gentle words, she could quickly get into the zone.
After listening to Zi Xuan's words, Bai Ling hesitated for a moment before turning her gaze to the two foxes.
"Well... I'm actually quite unfamiliar with Xin Yuehu; I've hardly ever had any contact with her."
"Miss Tianqing, I remember you were able to enter Xinyuehu's mental world under certain conditions. Have you talked to her?"
—Then you've come to the right person. No one in the world understands Xin Yuehu better than me, Fox.
Su Tianqing thought to herself, but on the surface she still nodded in a friendly manner.
"Although we did have a conversation, it didn't go very well. Maybe it was because we had different ideas."
"But based on what I learned from Xin Yuehu, she doesn't seem to have any evil intentions; she's more like she's just having fun."
"Looking for fun..."
Zixuan repeated Su Tianqing's words.
Bai Ling crossed her arms, clearly annoyed, and replied:
"Sure enough, I also felt that Xin Yuehu's actions were very strange. Although she looks like an evil organization, she has never expanded her organization's scale and has always operated in small teams."
"Even if it's for fun, she shouldn't disrupt the city's order. It damages buildings and people's property! And it threatens everyone's safety!"
Su Tianqing didn't say much, choosing instead to let Yue Tianxin Fox talk to the white sable spirit.
"Senior Bai Ling, I remember that Xin Yuehu always helped evacuate the crowd before the attack started. What does this mean?"
"This...it must be because her conscience is bothering her, that's why she's pretending to be evil! It must be!"
Bai Ling stubbornly stood tall in front of her juniors, her confident demeanor causing Su Tianqing to raise an eyebrow, but it still made Yue Tianxin, the fox spirit, show a look of sudden realization.
"I see, Senior Bai Ling's analysis makes a lot of sense."
Hehehe~
As long as you give this white ferret enough emotional value, the Stargazer is the easiest ferret to handle in the Hyacinth Squad, bar none.
"If Xin Yuehu was just looking for fun, were the things she did in Hong Kong also for amusement?"
Zixuan pinched her chin and thought carefully, then came to her own conclusion.
"It sounds pretty plausible, but unfortunately we can't go and verify it with Xin Yuehu in person," Bai Ling chimed in at the opportune moment.
"Anyway, Zixuan, don't take Xinyuehu's words to heart."
Su Tianqing continued to comfort her.
"It's a good opportunity for you to take a good rest and relax, isn't it?"
"Mmm..."
After hesitating for a moment, the girl fell silent and stared blankly at the large pile of snacks on the table.
Take a break...
On the other hand, I have indeed been in a state of high tension during this period.
Finding ways to support Hyacinth, trying my best to find the mole, and yesterday's fierce battle and indoor chase and gunfight have really drained my energy. Taking a break like this is quite nice.
I'm a little worried about Aquamarine and Hyacinth's condition, since they're still injured. What if they encounter Heartmoon Fox again during today's operation...
...But what's the use of worrying about these things?
Two days ago at Whale Reef, Hyacinth and the others were tied up by Heart Moon Fox. Hellcat's overwhelming fighting power is something Hyacinth can hardly withstand under any circumstances.
"Don't worry, I'll talk to Hyacinth later. Although I can't completely dispel their suspicions about you, at least they won't show any more hostility."
"Ah, thank you so much. That must be quite troublesome, right? After all, Hyacinth and the others..."
Zi Xuan was somewhat flattered and quickly thanked Su Tianqing.
Fox is a big help!
"It's okay, I'm quite familiar with Hyacinth, we can just chat for a bit."
Su Tianqing answered with a smile, as always.
Zixuan was bewildered for a moment, then suddenly chuckled.
"Hahaha... Miss Tianqing, you remind me of my older sister."
"Hmm? Your sister?" Su Tianqing curiously raised her fox ears.
"Yes, she was a fox-person like you, but she went abroad to study when I was young and never came back. However, she was a very kind person and very caring."
"She has been sending me a sum of money for living expenses and tuition every month for the past few years. Thanks to her, I was able to successfully study at Gangcheng College."
Su Tianqing blinked.
Are you a fox-person like me?
It seems that Zixuan's family situation is similar to Nan Xiaofeng's; they both have an orc sister, and their relationship seems to be quite good.
"I see, that's quite a coincidence."
Su Tianqing smiled gently.
"Can you tell me about your sister? What kind of person is she?"
"I have photos of myself and my sister from when we were little, they're right there."
When her sister was mentioned, Zixuan stood up excitedly and eagerly picked up an exquisite photo frame from the cabinet in the apartment's entryway to show it to Su Tianqing.
The photo frame shows a young Zixuan, who is very cute.
But the red fox girl beside her... made Su Tianqing's expression freeze instantly.
"This is what I looked like when I was little, and my older sister is next to me."
—Is it fate? Or is it that magical girls are drawn to each other?
Su Tianqing took the photo frame from Zixuan and stared blankly at the red fox girl in the photo.
That pretty fox-woman face, that fiery red fur and fox ears, were exactly the same as the red fox girl he had seen in his Inari memories.
The person in this photo is none other than the magical girl who protected the port city for over a decade—[Inari]!
