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

Chapter 346 The Autumn Osmanthus Burns Out

Qiu Gui had never imagined that idol activities could be so terrifying.

Even on a world-class stage, during her world tour, facing the cheers and shouts of thousands of fans, Qiu Gui never felt the pressure of being an idol.

Seeing the smiles and tears on the faces of fans, and ending another concert amidst songs and fireworks, brings me a tremendous sense of accomplishment.

The other members shared the same idea, and the like-minded Qiugui Squad became a well-known idol group.

but,

While active as teenage idols, the Aki Katsura Squad also took on the responsibilities of magical girls.

During their world tour, the Qiugui Squad often participates in local monster-fighting missions, communicating and cooperating with the local magical girl squads, and continuously improving their strategies and tactics.

However, when facing another mysterious force, Qiu Gui felt that she could not defeat it even if she tried her best.

"Heart Moon Fox".

"The fox-girl magician who made her debut in Chengdu half a year ago, teamed up with the Hell Shrike from Shanghai and the local rookie magician Cheshire Rabbit to form a team that would go head-to-head with Hyacinth."

"She is believed to be the mastermind behind many strange attacks, but she would evacuate the local population before launching the attacks, and even set a record of zero casualties in strange attacks in Chengdu in the second half of the year."

"After Fenrir joined the Heart Moon Fox Squad, the squad became the most powerful magical girl team in history."

This is the Hero Association's evaluation of the Heart Moon Fox Squad, which is very fair and left a deep impression on Qiu Gui.

But when Qiu Gui first officially fought Xin Yuehu a few days ago, she realized the terrifying strength of this seemingly cute but actually cunning fox girl:

He encountered Heartmoon Fox head-on, and before he could even cast a spell, Hellcat punched his wand away, and he immediately fell into the hands of the slime monster.

Hellcat's pure speed and power, Kokoro's dazzling array of bizarre gadgets and strange summons, plus the Cheshire Rabbit, the hammer-wielding assassin, that Iris heard about...

There was even a Fenrir who struck Jormungandr half to death with a bolt of astral lightning from the sky!

This team, with everyone being a supermodel, cast a huge shadow over Aki, who had never experienced a magical girl battle before.

but.

When the Moon Fox Squad appeared in the audience, waving glow sticks and fan signs and cheering loudly, Qiu Gui's shadow extended to her already quite skilled idol activities.

There's even a newcomer named Alice with sparkling eyes, and a Cheshire Rabbit dressed exactly like a fanatic.

Qiu Gui felt that her singing tone was a bit off, and her steps on stage seemed very hurried.

Does this seem right?

Singing a song, her back was covered in sweat, and Qiu Gui was very flustered.

What's going on with Xin Yuehu and the others? What's this all about?

[I absolutely did not receive any notification from the Hero Association that Kokoro was also coming to watch the performance! Nor did she publicly announce that she would be coming to see my show!]

Could it be that she's suddenly become interested in her own performance?

After finishing a song, during the intermission when interacting with fans, Qiu Gui's gaze involuntarily drifted towards the villainous five-person group.

She couldn't help but wonder about the purpose of Xin Yuehu's group.

Could it be that Xin Yuehu is hinting at something to her? Qiu Gui wondered.

She's a villainous magical girl who actively disperses crowds, and her resume with the Hero Association is undeniably outstanding, even surpassing Hyacinth's reputation.

There were even rumors that the Chengdu Association was discussing whether to contact Xin Yuehu to formally recognize her, but the stargazers righteously rejected the idea.

So...

While interacting with fans, Qiu Gui heard the voices of her teammates and quietly moved closer to Xia Jin.

"Xia Jin, do you think that Xin Yuehu might have ill intentions?"

"It's hard to say, Captain. Why don't you go and probe?"

"Why do I have to go?!"

"Didn't we agree that you, Captain, would be in charge of fan interaction over there?" Xia Jin said timidly.

Qiu Gui swallowed.

Xin Yuehu made an appearance at the last concert, but she and Hellcat had bought tickets to enter, and their interaction took place after the concert.

And what about today?

Putting aside the fact that the five of them were dressed in their magical costumes, Qiu Gui felt that this matter was definitely not simple, just from the Cheshire Rabbit with her eyes shining.

One or two villains can be interpreted as having made plans to go out and have fun, leaving room for them to banter and exchange pleasantries.

But if an entire villainous team appears in front of you at the same time, then things get a little complicated.

After discussing with her teammates who should interact with Xin Yuehu, Qiu Gui was pointed out by all three of her companions, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and inch her way over there.

The orange-clad magical girl greeted the fans with a nervous, wry smile, then took small steps to the interactive area at the edge of the stage, looking at the five people standing closest to her.

Heartmoon Fox gazed at herself with a smile, while Hellcat and Fenrir remained relatively calm.

Alice seemed to be attending such a large event for the first time, and she looked the most flustered.

As for Cheshire Rabbit...

Hmm? Where's the Cheshire Rabbit?

"Hiss hiss... Miss Qiugui..."

"Huh?!"

Suddenly, the Cheshire Rabbit's heavy breathing sounded beside her. Qiu Gui turned her head in alarm and met the gaze of the pink-furred rabbit girl standing next to her.

Drops of what looked like sweat or drink liquid slid down the undulating valley of the bunny girl's body, and the pink cape adorned with badges and splatters behind her was even more eye-catching.

"Ah... Autumn Osmanthus... Autumn Osmanthus so close..."

The rabbit girl's face was full of smiles. Qiu Gui instinctively wanted to dodge, but the rabbit girl stepped forward and handed her an autographed book.

Qiu Gui glanced down at the book full of autographs.

The title page prominently displays the autograph of "Red Rose," followed by the prestigious codename "Mercury."

The White Lily Squad, the Aquamarine Squad, and even a somewhat immature writer wrote "Inari".

It's covered with all sorts of limited-edition stickers, making it into an exquisite magical girl's notebook.

Qiu Gui thought that this autographed notebook would definitely fetch an outrageous price in the magical girl community.

……but,

Qiu Gui, however, inexplicably began to think of some strange things.

Could it be that this is a book imbued with strange magic, and if I write down my code name, I will become the target of Xin Yuehu and the others' troublemaking?

Will the Mountain City start randomly spawning Heart Moon Foxes in the future?

"Miss Qiugui, may I sign my name here?"

Seeing Qiu Gui standing there, Rabbit Girl quickly stopped breathing heavily and straightened her posture.

Qiu Gui felt this was a sign that Rabbit Girl was about to launch an attack, and with an expression that was almost about to cry, she nervously left her code name and signature.

The rabbit girl was collecting magical girl merchandise when Heart Moon Fox, smiling, stood in the audience and said to the bewildered Hellcat beside her:

"Look, kitty, what did I just say?"

"Even if we do nothing but stand here quietly and listen to the performance, Miss Qiugui and the others will put on some very interesting scenes on their own."

"...That's amazing."

The catgirl swayed her tail from side to side and sighed softly.

Alice paused briefly, and seeing that Qiu Gui was about to flee back to the stage, she immediately ran forward and blocked Qiu Gui's way back.

Then she handed over her autograph book, her eyes shining with anticipation.

"Kitty! Let's both go get an autograph! It sounds like a really fun idea!"

"You two, stay away from this!!"

Qiu Gui let out a silent wail as she was surrounded by the five villains and turned into snow-white ash.

Magical Girl Aki, burned out.
