The villainous magical girl's daily mission is to find fault.

Chapter 667 The cafeteria is always something to look forward to.

"Tell me, what exactly is Xin Yuehu up to?"

"Who knows? *slurp*... Hmm, this is pretty good."

At noon, in the canteen of the Mountain City Heroes Association, Hyacinth sat at the table with a boxed lunch, taking small bites as she spoke to Nightingale, who was enjoying her meal across the table.

The latter was stuffing a piece of braised pork knuckle into his mouth, carefully chewing and savoring the fresh and savory taste, and answered Hyacinth across the table.

Hyacinth sighed helplessly and picked up a piece of braised pork knuckle from her plate and put it in her mouth. Although it was indeed delicious, the food did not dispel her doubts. Instead, it amplified her confusion.

Last night... or more precisely, early this morning, in my mental world that was invaded by the domain, I assisted Senior Qiugui in fighting against the giant monster. With the help of Cheshire Rabbit, I made a crucial assist, helping the combined mecha successfully destroy Monster 11.

It should have been a happy ending for everyone—Qiu Gui defeated the monster and gained a rare experience, while Xin Yuehu had his share of fun, and everyone had a bright future.

For some reason, Nan Xiaofeng always had a strange feeling: Xin Yuehu seemed to be plotting something terrible in the dark. But no matter who he asked, his companions would all say in unison, "I don't have that feeling," and then look at him with worried eyes, and then tell him to go to sleep.

Whether it's Iris, Nightshade, or Arisaema, everyone feels they look very sleepy, but Nan Xiaofeng is convinced she's definitely awake.

I slept from four o'clock to noon, eight hours of sound sleep. I never slept this soundly, not even when I was in school!

When he arrived at the cafeteria, he bumped into Nightingale at the window, who was serving boxed lunches. Nan Xiaofeng rushed over as if he had found a savior. After talking with Nightingale, he finally heard a different answer from her.

Even though Nightingale didn't think she had done anything wrong, she didn't have much of an opinion about Heart Moon Fox's actions. At most, she felt that the scene was a bit too grand and would be inconvenient to clean up later, and the video editing would be quite troublesome...

"No way, what kind of problem is video editing being troublesome? It has nothing to do with us!"

"That's the biggest problem, so I think even if we don't figure out Xin Yuehu's true purpose, it's not something worth considering given the current situation." Nightingale replied with a shrug. She had almost finished her boxed lunch and casually picked up a carton of milk from the table, poked it into a straw, and started sipping.

"Even you think there's nothing wrong with Xin Yuehu's actions...?" Although Hyacinth was still confused, Nightingale's words reminded her, and she seemed to have some unique insights.

On the surface, everything that's happening right now makes perfect sense: helping to open the door to the world of mental images, arranging the most suitable people to provide support inside, doing her usual live-streaming activities and video editing, and even using the excuse of "assisting with film shooting" to cover up the fact that Qiu Gui is trapped inside the world of mental images.

Putting aside everything else, judging from the series of posts I've seen on the forum, Qiu Gui's fans almost unanimously tend to post and discuss questions like "how long the movie will take to finish," completely ignoring why Qiu Gui disappeared for several days.

What? Trapped in a mental world fighting monsters? That's Heart Moon Fox! Even Garuda struggles to break through her mental world, so she'll definitely be fine. — That's what netizens said.

"Forget it, let's talk about this later."

Hyacinth breathed a sigh of relief, made peace with herself, and lowered her head to continue eating the boxed lunch from the canteen at the Mountain City Association.

The Hero Association is known for its excellent benefits. The cafeteria offers three meals a day for 5 yuan each, and you can buy boxed milk, braised eggs, and boiled eggs for 1 yuan. They also receive a monthly meal allowance. Eating in the cafeteria is almost free, and the meal card is valid nationwide, so heroes don't need to worry about food and accommodation when traveling to any city.

The magical girls were no exception. Hyacinth also got a meal card, but since she usually ate at school and at home, the balance on her meal card kept increasing, and how to spend these meal allowances became the biggest problem.

But now doesn't seem like the time to think about how to spend the meal allowance. Hyacinth thought to herself.

A new idea popped into her mind: who should enter the monster that was going to appear inside the mind this afternoon to provide support for Qiu Gui?

"Don't push yourself. You and Cheshire Rabbit used up a lot of energy just going into the Mind World once. There's no way I'll let you go again this afternoon."

After lunch, Nightingale and Hyacinth sat side by side on a bench in front of the canteen's convenience store, chatting with each of them holding a can of orange soda to cool off from the midday heat of the mountain town.

"Don't worry, I'm aware of my own condition," Hyacinth replied.

Then he got a disdainful look from Nightingale.

"Come on, when have you ever not just gritted your teeth and pushed yourself? You need to pay attention to your condition from time to time. If you collapse, our team will only have Tian Nanxing left to be in the front row."

"Arisaema..." Hyacinth murmured, as if she felt the problem was quite serious, so she had no choice but to listen to Nightingale.

That Bernese Mountain dog girl's offensive capabilities are truly formidable; her close-combat claw attacks can inflict massive damage on monsters in an instant. However, her defense is lacking, or rather, she never even considered "defense," instead compensating for her inherent defensive deficiencies with extreme attacks.

"It's said, just said, a rumor I heard from Fenrir."

The nightingale suddenly leaned close to the hyacinth's ear and whispered...

"The person who entered the mental image support this afternoon is very likely Hellcat." "Let her go? Isn't that a bit too dangerous?" Hyacinth asked subconsciously.

It's not that Hellcat will be in danger, it's that Akiho will be in great danger.

"You don't need to worry about that. We've also sent someone to provide support," Nightingale continued. "We've fully absorbed the intelligence and lessons learned from your and Cheshire Rabbit's support efforts yesterday, and we've decided to expand our long-range firepower to achieve the best support effect."

"...Then it seems there's only one candidate left." Hyacinth didn't listen any further and answered.

Speaking of firepower, aside from the long-retired Red Rose, the next one that should come up is the Iris with the Shadow of Stars. Her firepower is perfectly suited to support monster battles of this level.

A brief silence.

The two watched the heroes of the mountain city passing by. Occasionally, a few heroes would walk up to the convenience store to buy some snacks and drinks, and greet the two in a friendly manner. Hyacinth would also politely respond.

What followed was an even longer silence, and a silent exchange of glances between the two.

"Where are you planning to go later?" Nightingale asked. "We're going to the rift entrance to meet up with Heartmoon Fox and the others, and use the magical camera on White Spirit to observe what's happening inside."

"Shall we reunite with Heart Moon Fox...?"

Nan Xiaofeng hesitated.

Watching the battle was indeed something to be concerned about, but the thought of meeting Xin Yuehu made me feel inexplicably nervous.

Moreover, Hellcat isn't with Kokoro yet, so there's no need to worry about the huge risk of being punched in the face by a cat...

"Judging from your expression, you don't want to go, then I'll tell Tian Nanxing not to save you a seat..." "Hey, I haven't even said that yet! Of course I'm going!"

Hyacinth hurriedly said.

Go! I absolutely have to go! To witness the iris's heroic battle prowess, I'll gladly accompany the fox!
