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

Chapter 283 Aggressive Momentum

Central Bank of Hong Kong.

The lobby manager sat calmly in his chair, staring blankly at the tranquil service counter.

The sales staff were very honest today, and the people who came to handle their business were also very patient. There were no disturbances or accidents all morning, and I was even a little bored.

Looking back, VIPs were always coming and going, and the crowds of people doing their business were noisy and bustling; the entire bank lobby was as lively as a market.

Moreover, the sound of arguing could be heard from time to time, and my daily WeChat steps always started at least 10,000.

"What peace today."

As the security captain walked towards him, the lobby manager smiled and took a sip of tea from his thermos.

"Yes, nothing went wrong all morning, it was a truly peaceful day."

"I wonder if this situation will continue this afternoon."

"That's hard to say."

Their brief, lighthearted conversation did not bring about any change.

After watching the security captain return to his post, the lobby manager leisurely planned to close his eyes and rest for a while.

The drowsiness of an afternoon nap still lingers, so I'll rest for a while to avoid feeling sleepy later...

"Ding-dong~"

The melodious sound of the doorbell.

Four small figures walked in through the door.

The lobby manager instinctively opened his eyes to look at the newcomers, initially assuming they were four children who had come in to enjoy the warmth of the heating. However, their attire gave him a sudden pause:

The four loose-fitting coats were all adorned with strange masks—a dark blue cat mask, a pink rabbit mask, and a gray wolf mask.

The leader was wearing a fox mask on his face.

With a white background, red accents, and gold trim, it exudes a wondrous aura, and the pair of emerald fox eyes hidden beneath the mask are full of smiles.

Upon seeing the four men's attire, even the captain of the guards was momentarily stunned, but he immediately reacted and shouted as he reached for his gun.

"Stand still! You—"

"Bang!!"

Gunshots.

The deep blue magic bullet struck the guard captain, enveloping him in magic, and he instantly collapsed and fell into a deep sleep.

Harmless, powerful stun grenades.

Upon hearing the gunshots, bank customers and tellers immediately screamed and sought cover, while security guards drew their weapons in an attempt to return fire.

But how can a pistol possibly compete with the firepower of an automatic rifle?

In an instant, all the guards in the hall fell one after another. Amidst the hail of bullets, the laughter and voices of the fox-woman filled the air, jolting the hall manager, who had been completely stunned, back to reality.

"Good afternoon, everyone at Hong Kong City Bank! I'm your favorite magical girl—Kokoro-no-Kou!"

"I'm so sorry to have disturbed everyone's business. Please leave the bank and find cover within two minutes."

"Because next... it's my time to rob someone~"

After the opening remarks, the hall fell into a brief silence.

Whether or not they knew Xin Yuehu's style of doing things, everyone scrambled to escape for their lives. The tellers also fled to the safe houses to hide, and soon only countless dizzy and unconscious guards remained in the lobby.

The lobby manager stared blankly as the four magical girls chatted and laughed as they walked toward the stairwell.

Then, with practiced ease, they fiddled with the sturdy blast door for a few moments. After a loud explosion, the entire stairwell door was dismantled and tossed aside. The four men swaggered into the vault stairwell behind the door.

It wasn't until then that the lobby manager snapped out of his daze and rushed to the nearest walkie-talkie to dial the distress channel.

"Help! Help!"

"I am the lobby manager of the Central Bank of Hong Kong! We are being robbed! The robbers are heading towards the underground vault. Requesting backup!"

"The guards have all fallen! There's no one left in the hall who can..."

"What? You're asking how many robbers there are?"

The lobby manager took a deep look in the direction where Xin Yuehu and her companions had disappeared.

"...Four people."

"The one leading the group... is [Heart Moon Fox]."

……

"Heart Moon Fox? Hong Kong Central Bank??"

"robbery???"

Meanwhile, the port city logistics park.

Hyacinth stopped firing continuously and looked at Nightingale behind her, who was answering a phone call.

"That's right, Ziyingshi and Hailanshi received a distress message. Xinyuehu broke into the Hong Kong Central Bank, saying that she wanted to rob the underground vault."

Hyacinth glanced back at the roaring monster not far away.

Iris and Lily were suppressing it with firepower. The magic bullets were very effective against it, and after just a few rounds of shooting, it was on the verge of death.

These strange people are very weak, which is not like Xin Yuehu's style. Could it be her plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain?

But why a bank?

"Shall we go back and provide support now?" Nightingale asked.

"No, we must completely eliminate these strange people before we can leave," Hyacinth said firmly.

This is the biggest dilemma right now.

If I give up fighting the monsters and go back to support the bank, those monsters will definitely cause a lot of damage to the logistics park.

But if they split up and fight individually, the three of them—Iris, Nightingale, and Iris—wouldn't be able to defeat Hellcat and the others...

"Damn it! What on earth is that Heart Moon Fox thinking?!"

Hyacinth was so angry that she gritted her teeth, wishing she could rush back to find the golden-haired fox girl and get an explanation. However, the strange person in front of her was still not eliminated by the magic bullet and was still roaring and launching a counterattack.

"Take care of it quickly, then rush back to provide support! We must block Xin Yuehu and the others' escape route!"

……

As she walked toward the underground vault, Su Tianqing leisurely played with the Heart Moon Magic Wand in her hand.

A few wisps of magic emanated from the tip of the wand, outlining a thin circle of magic around himself and the three people beside him, colliding with the dense magic in the surrounding air and creating scattered sparks.

However, even so, the four of them were not hindered by any barrier and walked unimpeded on the vault stairs, which were the most heavily guarded part of the barrier.

"We actually made it through..."

"Wow, that's amazing... How did you do that?"

Nan Jiayu's eyes were filled with shock, as were Xia Taotao and Fei Yelan.

Upon reaching the barrier defenses, Nan Jia Yu attempted to force his way in.

However, the barrier's strength exceeded the catgirl's expectations. Even with the Black Hole Cat Fist in Starry Shadow form, she could only manage to create a few holes, making it impossible for anyone to pass through.

The three couldn't imagine how Fox would break through the barrier that countless magical girls had worked together to create.

Does she, all by herself, really have a chance to challenge the most formidable barrier in the magical girl world?

Will you use massive amounts of magic to violently tear open a crack? Or will you use delicate and skillful magic to find a weak opening in the barrier and amplify it?

The magical ripples around them, resembling a magical shield but several times thinner, gave the three a new understanding of [magic].

"I have explained the principle behind this defensive barrier."

Su Tianqing said softly,

"Since it's possible to pass through it using a barrier pass, it must have a magical 'identification' process for those who come into contact with the barrier."

"By applying magic to the person who comes into contact with it, and then having the barrier observe the ripples caused by this magic, it can 'recognize' the identity of the person entering and thus choose to refuse or allow entry."

At this point, the golden-haired fox girl glanced at the few wisps of magic emanating from the Moon-Shaped Magic Wand in her hand; these were the very ones that formed the thin magical barrier around the four of them.

"By enveloping the body with carefully tuned magic and emitting opposing waves to external magic, we can counteract their recognition process."

"Without the identification process, the barrier itself will consider us to be 'a harmless wisp of magic,' and thus let us pass."

Su Tianqing softly explained the working principle of this magic.

As the three of them either suddenly realized something or seemed to be deep in thought, the stairs reached their end, and the defensive barrier disappeared and ended there.

Instead, there were bright halls and corridors, and a massive vault door that was thicker than the walls.

"We've arrived at the deepest underground vault."

Su Tianqing chuckled and dispelled the magic, looking up at the solid barrier in front of her.

The underground was completely silent, as if the whole world had vanished.

But deep underground, isolated from the world, lies a massive vault with an iron gate...

Fei Yelan could not hide her excitement and took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. Su Tianqing noticed this small action.

"Dog."

The fox girl said with a smile,

"Behind this door, there might be a secret about your past."

"Come on, let's... open it together!"
