NOVEL NEXT Chapter 12
Chapter Twelve They Are Not Innocent
Even without wearing cat ears or a collar, Mèng Yuè’s demeanor exuded a charming feline aura, as if a cat had suddenly transformed into a beautiful young woman…
This left Bái Yǔ stunned in place, watching Mèng Yuè tilt her head and blink at him, her pure expression of joy even brought a sense of healing to Bái Yǔ.
“I’m back.”
Bending down, Bái Yǔ couldn’t help but ruffle Mèng Yuè’s hair before asking, “How did you turn on the TV?”
Tilting her head in confusion, Mèng Yuè seemed to only then realize that Bái Yǔ was referring to the thing hanging on the wall. She immediately grinned and said, “I don’t know… I just flipped through it, and it lit up out of nowhere! I even saw our enemies on it!”
“Is that so…”
Hearing this, Bái Yǔ didn’t doubt it at all! After all, he never imagined that Mèng Yuè, the strongest magical girl, would still be playing around like this after regaining her senses! He had carelessly left the remote control somewhere last night, so it wasn’t unusual for Mèng Yuè to have found it.
Looking at the reporter, Xiǎo Yún, giving a summary on the TV, Bái Yǔ casually picked up Mèng Yuè from the ground and sat her on the couch beside him, holding her like a pillow while watching TV.
On the TV, Xiǎo Yún was summarizing the incident. In her words, the two deceased were ordinary middle school students, yet they were tortured to death by the Monster Organization for no apparent reason!
“And… to make another student watch it, what kind of demon could do such a thing!”
Xiǎo Yún held the microphone indignantly and said, “I hope the magical girls can quickly eliminate the Monster Organization to prevent more innocent people from suffering!”
Hearing this, Mèng Yuè felt a sense of powerlessness. This was also directed at her, but she couldn’t even think about destroying the Monster Organization anytime soon; she was currently being held by the Monster Leader as a pillow and forced to watch this scene…
But… did the master really do such things?
At this moment, Mèng Yuè suddenly had a strange thought. After spending some time together, she always felt that Bái Yǔ wasn’t the kind of person who would kill without reason!
Could it be… there’s some hidden story here?
“Master, randomly capturing and torturing people… It feels a bit cruel.”
Mèng Yuè leaned closer to Bái Yǔ and whispered, “Our enemies are magical girls, so why harm other innocent people?”
Although Mèng Yuè had amnesia, she believed that even if she truly lost her memory, she would still ask Bái Yǔ such questions because she considered herself inherently kind.
However, Mèng Yuè didn’t expect Bái Yǔ to say, “Those two weren’t innocent.”
Not innocent?
Mèng Yuè blinked, recalling that Bái Yǔ had told her before: ever since he became the Monster Leader, the Monster Organization attacked those who committed evil deeds but never faced justice. With too many events happening, her mind went blank and she forgot about this…
But… were these two middle school students evil? But they were so young, enduring torture for at least an hour! What kind of evil needed such cruel treatment?
“What did they do?”
Mèng Yuè couldn’t help but ask, and Bái Yǔ replied, “Beating classmates, sticking drawing pins on others’ seats, stealing money and framing someone else, putting laxatives in a classmate’s drink to make them miss an important exam they had prepared for, spreading rumors and forcing a classmate to jump off a building… That’s how they paid for their crimes.”
“This… this…”
Hearing Bái Yǔ’s response, Mèng Yuè was stunned. She hadn’t had the time to understand the victims’ situations, so she didn’t have a clear idea of what Bái Yǔ meant by “attacking those who committed evil deeds but never faced justice.”
Mèng Yuè knew that most of the Monster Organization’s attacks were against bad people, but she didn’t know how evil these bad people were! This was the first time she heard such detailed descriptions of evil people, which made her body tense…
“After all, they didn’t push anyone off the building themselves, so normal means wouldn’t punish them.”
To this, Bái Yǔ said cheerfully, “So I took care of them and collected some negative energy too! Isn’t that great! Those people who thought they’d never be defeated suddenly learned they would die after suffering! The fear they felt was quite intense!”
“But, Master, how did you know about these things?”
Mèng Yuez first paused for several seconds before asking, “Did you personally confirm that the two people really did those things?”
“Of course!”
Bái Yǔ replied confidently, “I even transformed into the victim’s appearance and attended school for two weeks, so I’m very clear about it!”
So you have the ability to transform!
Hearing this, Mèng Yuè frowned. No wonder I never saw you outside; I even thought you were just a shut-in in the Monster Base!
Wait, if that’s the case…
“Master, did you just go?”
“That’s right! I personally sent them off!”
Sure enough, hearing Bái Yǔ say this with such excitement, Mèng Yuè could clearly feel that Bái Yǔ thought he had done something worth boasting about!
“Not only that, I made the person who suffered the most bullying witness this scene!”
Bái Yǔ continued, “He asked me to let him see them suffer, and I naturally agreed. Just now, he said he would never forget my kindness!”
It was actually like this…
Lying in Bái Yǔ’s arms, Mèng Yuè was stunned… until she heard Bái Yǔ say, “If not for those pesky magical girls interfering, we would have sent those two to their deaths last week!”
Last week? That wasn’t…
Hearing this, Mèng Yuè suddenly remembered last week… Several monsters were sneaking into a residential area, and she was urged by the Contract Fairy to fight at night! Since she was called to work when she was about to sleep, she immediately used a Purification spell to eliminate the monsters.
In fact, under Mèng Yuè’s influence, many of the Monster Organization’s actions had failed this year! Before, it was hard enough to even kill the targets, let alone torture them!
The reason they could slowly torture the target in the abandoned warehouse was mainly because Mèng Yuè wasn’t present…
