Starting from a Magical Girl, Dominating Eternity-Chapter 114 - 45: Today’s Weather—Overcast, Heavy Rain

Chapter 114: Chapter 45: Today’s Weather—Overcast, Heavy Rain

Beihai City experienced a heavy rain.

The weather in Beihai generally doesn’t favor rain. Even if it occasionally rains, it’s typically a light drizzle with a gentle spring breeze, ceasing after a short while, and not half a day later, people would forget that it ever rains in Beihai.

However, today’s pouring rain showed no sign of stopping.

Susan watched the rain in Beihai transition from a light drizzle to a heavier downpour, eventually turning into a torrential rain. The pits left by the battle between Zi Yuan and Yin Luo quickly filled with rainwater.

Li Yi knelt inside, holding her sister, half of her body soaked and seemingly about to be submerged.

Even after Zi Yuan left, Li Yi did not react at all, she just tightly held her sister, calling out her sister’s name until no sound came, simply kneeling there quietly.

Was it because she knew she was no match for Zi Yuan and gave up, or was it because the sorrow and pain of her sister’s departure overflowed her heart, leaving no room for anger?

Susan did not know. She merely watched the captain, Li Yi, holding her sister Yin Luo motionless in the rain, and felt a pang of sorrow in her heart.

In the end, Li Yi did not cry.

Susan attempted to take Yin Lian and Yin Luo back, but aside from needing to keep her regained transformation abilities secret from Yin Lian, she didn’t have the power to transform even if she wanted to.

It wasn’t until the pit was nearly filled with rainwater that Li Yi stood up, holding her sister, and slowly climbed out of the pit.

Susan helped from the side, pulling her and Yin Luo’s body up.

Shortly afterwards, assistance from the Disaster Strategy Bureau finally arrived.

Such a commotion, even the usually slow-reacting Disaster Strategy Bureau dared not delay too long, especially since it was so close to the Bureau.

Helicopters, armored vehicles, and troops approached.

It was only at Susan’s request that an ambulance was dispatched.

In reality, it was hardly needed.

Eventually she saw Li Yi off into the ambulance. Initially, paramedics wanted Li Yi to ride separately from Yin Luo, but after Susan’s numerous pleas, they allowed Li Yi to ride in the ambulance transporting Yin Luo’s body.

Susan didn’t dare to get on the vehicle.

She squatted for a while longer in the rain, her mind filled with Jiang Si and Zi Yuan. The shocking news hadn’t been fully processed, and Yin Luo’s fate was yet another blow.

The medical team simply wrapped her injuries, and although the police had questioned her about the scene, they ultimately didn’t say much.

She was the head of the Security Department at the Disaster Strategy Bureau, and ordinary officers had no authority to arrest her.

Not to mention, Yue Ji was inside the police station.

Crouching by the roadside, watching the cars and crowds pass by, letting the rain soak her, no one paid attention to her, and Susan was in no mood to talk to anyone, just quietly dazing in the rain.

Sorting through her somewhat chaotic thoughts, there was just too much today...

An umbrella was placed over her head, and Susan turned her head to see Peony with a lollipop in her mouth, also squatting beside her with an umbrella. She handed over another lollipop, "Want one?"

"No."

"In movies and TV shows, we’d normally smoke here, but well, we’re Magical Girls, we can only substitute candy for cigarettes."

Susan, who was initially a bit downcast, was amused by her friend’s words but ultimately sighed, "You still have the heart to joke."

"Things are as they are; what else can we do?" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Peony said helplessly, "The Disaster Strategy Bureau is just preparing to set up a special team to investigate Yin Luo, your instincts were right."

"Hmm."

Susan was not surprised. Yin Luo’s actions this time were too conspicuous to hide.

Even if the Disaster Strategy Bureau was unwilling to investigate, she would expose the evidence she’d gathered.

"Li Yi, she..."

Peony’s expression showed some pity, "Only a freshman in high school, facing something like this."

"A freshman, but also the captain of the Magic Girl Combat Team."

Susan finally accepted her friend’s lollipop, "Believe in her."

"Mm, today has indeed been terribly bad..."

Peony continued to chatter softly about the unforeseen disaster in Beihai City that day, and Susan just listened quietly beside her, occasionally nodding, giving her friend some response to show she was listening.

...

The numerous Disaster Beasts in Beihai City had been dealt with by noon. Even with their large numbers, they were swiftly cleaned up in an orderly fashion by the Cyan Cloud Sect, who had prepared well in advance.

Only two Inner Sect Disciples were dispatched.

The Disaster Strategy Bureau was attacked by Disaster Beasts as well, but the timely return of the Magic Girl Combat Team captain before the Magic Barrier was destroyed meant that no real damage was inflicted.

However, the Inspection Division was breached by unknown individuals, resulting in the untimely death of four Inspection Division employees.

This caused quite a stir at the Disaster Strategy Bureau.

By noon, the rain finally lessened a bit.

Keke didn’t know anything had happened to Yiyi until the afternoon.

She’d tried calling several times to find out what was going on with Yiyi, but ultimately, she couldn’t get through.

Since yesterday, she’d been unable to reach Yiyi on the phone, so she wasn’t surprised.

After school, she received news from Yue Ji.

Yin Luo had died...

Death always felt surreal and absurd.

Just like before, after her parents passed away, she was never able to comprehend why someone who laughed and played with her the day before could suddenly turn into a lifeless object.
