Chapter 325 Information Sharing at the Annual Meeting
Chapter 325 Information Sharing at the Annual Meeting
"Senior Qiugui, they are very good at performing in fireworks shows."
Huatianli residential complex, rooftop terrace.
Many residents gathered on the rooftop to watch the fireworks show, including Nan Xiaofeng, Hua Ling, and Lin Muyao.
"Huh? Karin, you've never seen Christmas Eve fireworks before?"
Lin Muyao asked curiously.
She was taking pictures with her phone when she heard Hua Ling's exclamation and immediately asked curiously.
"It's not that there's never been any... but I've never come here specifically like I did today."
The girl pushed up her glasses and said with a wry smile.
Fireworks burst in the sky, and everyone in the city could see the magical fireworks blooming in the heavens, imprinting this scene deeply in their minds.
"Christmas is the New Year in foreign countries, which means it's another new year."
"Yeah...time really flies, it feels like we've only known each other for a short time."
Nan Xiaofeng sighed.
"I never imagined that we would become comrades who had gone through life-or-death events together."
"Does that mean we get along quite well?"
"Of course! I heard we've been named the best group and best newcomer of the year, and there's even a bonus and specially made prizes."
"Really?!"
Lin Muyao was overjoyed, and Nan Xiaofeng was full of confidence. The two immediately began to discuss what kind of prize they should choose for the Best Newcomer award.
Hua Ling stared blankly at the blooming fireworks, her lips pursed, as if she were deep in thought.
Are Sister Tianqing and Sister Jiayu watching the fireworks display together?
I really hope they can stay together until the end. The girl thought to herself.
But this thought was quickly interrupted by the vibration of the phone. Nan Xiaofeng and Lin Muyao also received the message, and the three of them opened the text message at the same time to look at the new message.
"The Hero Association?... Oh, is it reminding us to attend the annual meeting tomorrow?" Nan Xiaofeng said.
"Annual party? What's that again?" Lin Muyao asked.
Karin was also completely confused. The two new magical girls looked at their senior, Nan Xiaofeng, at the same time, trying to get some information from him.
Under the gaze of the two, Nan Xiaofeng was caught in a dilemma and could only shake his head and sigh helplessly.
"Why are you two looking at me like that? I've never attended the Hero Association's annual meeting before, so I have nothing to tell you."
"But Xiaofeng, weren't you the only magical girl in Rongcheng before? Why weren't you invited?"
"How should I know!... Bai Ling! Stop being so lovey-dovey with Miss Yue Tianxin! Come over here and tell me about the annual meeting!"
Nan Xiaofeng looked into the distance and gazed at the two stargazing elves sitting side by side on the edge of the rooftop.
The white sable spirit shuddered and flew back with the fox spirit, pouncing on Nan Xiaofeng's head and letting out a series of meows:
"It's all your fault for disturbing me! I finally got to be alone with Xiaoyue!"
"There will be many more opportunities in the future, Senior Bai Ling," the fox spirit replied with a sweet smile, as radiant as the bright moon.
The white sable spirit's anger immediately subsided by more than half.
"Since Xiaoyue has said so... then we'll let Xiaofeng off the hook for now."
"The Hero Association doesn't hold an annual meeting every year. Unless something major happens that year, they won't specifically call the magical girls together for a meeting."
"This year has seen some big developments—several magical girls have appeared in Chengdu, the rate of monster attacks has increased significantly, but the casualty rate is close to zero. It's definitely something worth holding an annual meeting for."
Yue Tianxin laughed and complained.
Everyone agreed with her complaints.
Since the appearance of Xin Yuehu, the casualty rate of strange attacks in Rongcheng has indeed decreased significantly compared to previous years.
As for why there were strange attacks? Don't ask, it would be impolite to ask again.
"Anyway, let's go to the conference tomorrow afternoon. The fireworks show still has one last segment left, so let's hurry up and watch the performance!"
The white ferret elf gave a reminder, and the group looked up again, letting out heartfelt exclamations at the sky.
There were no strange attacks tonight.
May you have a peaceful night.
……
The next day.
Chengdu Heroes Association Headquarters, Main Conference Room.
The six resident S-class heroes sat in their respective seats.
Moira sat at the head of the table, with Messiah and Lancelot sitting beside him. The three of them each held a game console, as if they were playing some kind of game.
"Willow! Don't steal my spot!"
"You wish, you little punk."
"Shrimp head cleaver!"
The three people's cheerful atmosphere filled the meeting room with laughter, and the rest of the group also started their pre-meeting "slacking off" time.
Meteor, Steel, Electromagnetism.
The three S-class field heroes took a sip of tea from their cups.
Meteor flipped through today's meeting agenda and glanced at the few girls sitting upright around the conference table.
"Don't be so nervous, everyone. Today we're just here to share some information and future plans. There's nothing important to say."
"Is...is that so...?"
Nan Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's why I said, Xiao Feng, you don't need to be so nervous. It's just a normal meeting," the white ferret elf said.
The round, orange cat spirit beside Bai Ling nodded as well.
"That's right. And even though Xiangrui and the others are seniors, they haven't actually had many annual parties."
"Big Orange! Shut up!"
The orange cat wisely shut its mouth, but couldn't suppress the smile on its face.
The meeting ended with the three Monster Hunters celebrating, and quickly moved on to the main topic.
"We've invited the Qiugui team from Shancheng to participate in our annual meeting today. Hyacinth, your two teams have already met, right? Then I'll skip the introductions."
Moira, seated at the head of the table, said...
"First of all, the Chengdu Heroes Association thanks the Qiu Gui team for their assistance in the defense during this period, and hopes to cooperate more in the future to jointly ensure the safety of the mountain city and Chengdu."
"Not at all, it's our pleasure. We've also received a lot of care from everyone, and we'd like to thank you all too."
Jin Xiangrui, the real form of the magical girl Qiugui, accepted the thanks quite naturally and politely returned the gesture.
"Next is the second topic. Congratulations to Hyacinth Team for winning the National Best Magical Girl Team Award this year."
Applause rang out in the conference room. Nan Xiaofeng scratched his cheek, looking a little shy.
"In addition, Iris also won the Best Newcomer Award this year. Staff will contact you later to discuss the future customized merchandise."
"Next is the third, and also the most important, topic of this meeting."
Moira rallied her spirits and became slightly more serious, and the magical girls followed suit.
"The Chengdu Heroes Association has received a special request for assistance and hopes that your two teams can participate."
"Hmm? What exactly is the request?" Lin Muyao asked curiously.
"This is a mission assignment from the National Heroes Association, and the specific source of the information is... the Heroes Association of London, England."
Upon hearing this name, everyone was filled with awe and respect.
The Hero Association is an international organization with branches all over the world, including foreign countries.
However, it's quite rare to see cross-border task requests like this; most can be resolved domestically.
Unless there is a real problem, I will not use international connections.
"According to intelligence from the London Association, a dangerous villainous magical girl has recently arrived in Chengdu."
"But we have not been able to observe her appearance, nor do we have any reconnaissance methods against her. We hope that your two teams can help investigate her whereabouts and stop her from causing damage to the city at a critical moment."
The speaker was Messiah, who was sitting next to Moira.
The white-haired, red-eyed, inhuman girl continued:
"The target's crimes are extremely heinous. He has been accused of participating in several vicious attacks in London, causing numerous casualties."
"She is far more dangerous than Xin Yuehu or even Hellcat. Please take immediate precautions to prevent her from causing large-scale destruction in Rongcheng."
The magical girls looked at each other in silence, all understanding the importance of this matter.
"Well... may I ask a question?"
Hua Ling said.
"Does that villainous magical girl have any specific code name? Or any further information about her?"
"The relevant information will be sent to your respective Divine Stones later, and you can also check it in the archives."
The Messiah answered,
"And for her series of actions, the London Society gave her a rather fitting code name—"
"【Jack the Ripper】"
Or rather, Jack the Ripper.
