Transform into a magical girl after getting off work-Chapter 377 - 60 Plan_2
Lin Yun and she locked eyes for a long while, and after a stalemate, she slowly averted her gaze, "Because I need to go to the kingdom."
The office fell silent for a moment.
"...What do you mean, where did you say you’re going?" After a long silence, Asou Haruka took a couple of steps back, as if she hadn’t heard clearly before, and asked again.
"To the Magic Kingdom." Lin Yun said expressionlessly. Continue your adventure with novelbuddy
"...Huh?"
In the entire director’s office, for a time, only Asou Haruka’s astonished and doubtful voice echoed.
No wonder she was so surprised. In fact, had Hong Siyu not already heard about it from Molu, she would have been just as astonished.

Because everyone in the Fangting City team knew that the Magical Girl, Emerald Sparrow, formerly code-named Cornflower, had been personally banned by the Queen from entering the Magic Kingdom.
Although the Queen had never specified what the consequences of defying this ban were, there was no doubt that provoking the Queen in the Magic Kingdom was the least wise course of action.
"Are you planning to smuggle yourself in?" Asou Haruka suddenly burst into a hearty laugh, "You say this in front of me, a Magical Girl investigator? Aren’t you afraid I’ll arrest you right now?"
"It’s not smuggling for the time being."
Lin Yun calmly stated, "According to Molu’s plan, she will forge an identity for me and help me sneak in during next year’s qualification certification exams. At that point, the number of Magical Girls coming and going from the kingdom is large, so it’s easier to blend in."
"What’s the difference from smuggling except that it’s in plain sight? Have you thought about what will happen if you get caught? Will it be any better than smuggling?" Asou Haruka continued to ask with a smile.
Her demeanor made Lin Yun sigh inwardly.
Because he knew that the more radiant Asou Haruka’s smile, it didn’t necessarily mean she was in a better mood. In fact, she expressed her anger or dissatisfaction with a smile as well.
And this plan, which seemed very risky, was clearly the source of her discontent.
"Molu has promised to cover for me, and I will also seek the support of our honorable director. If something really goes wrong, there’s absolutely no problem with escaping."
However, as the conversation progressed, Lin Yun could only continue to explain, "I’ve also checked the false identity provided by Molu. Although there’s a part of her personal malice, it’s indeed impeccable in terms of legitimacy. I can play the part of an ordinary candidate, behave normally like one, and then leave."
"You mean to say? You’ll blend in with those candidates entering the kingdom, and then, as the celebrated Emerald Sparrow, you plan to take the exams with a group of young girls?" Asou Haruka narrowed her eyes.
"Cough cough..."
Lin Yun couldn’t help coughing a few times, "Going in as a candidate means I inevitably have to take the exams, but I just need to score poorly and fail normally. It won’t affect the other candidates. There are so many Magical Girls who fail the qualification certification each year; it’s quite normal."
"Then? Once you get to the kingdom, your injuries will heal?" Asou Haruka looked skeptical, "What kind of miracle cure can do that?"
"I don’t know, but I can only choose to trust."
Gathering his emotions, Lin Yun looked at her earnestly, "I need power now, whether for the children or for An Ya, even to go find Su Shengzi, I need the appropriate power. Molu is the only one in the entire kingdom who can make me this promise. To hesitate any longer will change nothing."
"...I understand."
It was unclear what her stance was, but Asou Haruka sat back on the sofa with an unchanged expression, "Have you thought about it? Next year is Queen Year."
"I know."
"You know? Sis, you’re still planning to carry out such a crazy plan knowing that?"
Asou Haruka shrugged, "If it were a regular year, you say you’d sneak in, relying on the director and the chief to completely suppress your case, no problem. But have you thought about what Queen Year means? Her Majesty the Queen will personally come to observe the exams! If she recognizes you then, it’s not just you, but even they will be punished!"
"I will disguise my appearance."
Lin Yun continued to calmly state, "If she only sees me from a distance, without coming close to verify, she won’t recognize me, and the Queen of the kingdom won’t bother to single out an obscure candidate even if she is present."
"...This is too dangerous, I really can’t agree, sister." Asou Haruka shook her head, "I think because you were once appointed as Sapphire, you lack a proper understanding of our kingdom’s royal court, and believe Her Majesty the Queen to be so benevolent, but in reality..."
"I am well aware, Asou."
Lin Yun interrupted her: "I can even say that I understand The Queen better than you do. I’ve met her, seen her with my own eyes, and the conversation between us, I will never forget to this day."
"Do you think just because you met her once, she will let you off after seeing through you?" Asou Haruka slightly smirked, looking at her with an indescribable gaze.
"No, she will take revenge fiercely because I once refused her invitation."
Lin Yun was emphatic: "As harsh a punishment as she can give within the rules, she will give, and even exceeding the rules is not out of the question. Absolute power leads to absolute caprice, stripping away the Heart’s Gem and the source of magic power... No, even execution would be quite normal."
"Then you still want to go?"
"According to Molu, I must go because the thing that can heal me absolutely cannot be brought into the physical world."
Lin Yun continued: "And this is all because I was the one who broke the promise first, not entering the Magic Kingdom, and even not using the Magical Girl’s power was part of my agreement with The Queen, so if I truly get discovered, it’s my own fault."
He adopted this attitude, and for a moment, even Asou Haruka didn’t know what to say to dissuade him.
At this time, it was Hong Siyu who spoke: "But, senior, you don’t really need to go to that extent, right? The Chief said your injury can be stabilized temporarily, and as for repairing the Heart’s Gem, waiting another year shouldn’t be an issue, or even Lulu and the others can simply wait till next year to take the test together. During this year, I should be able to help Fangting City with the more troublesome enemies, and even Yuan Xiang could..."
"Because of this."
Lin Yun’s voice suddenly changed.
Obviously, the clear and steady male voice had suddenly started to shift toward a sharp female tone; it even vaguely sounded like two people talking simultaneously.
Then, right in front of the two of them, the Heart’s Gem in Lin Yun’s pocket suddenly lit up, and immediately after, the adult male standing there transformed into a little girl.
He had transformed into the appearance of Emerald Sparrow.
"...Transforming here? What’s wrong? Is the problem in your true form?" Asou Haruka leaned back slightly.
"No, it’s not that I wanted to transform to show you, but I had already been unable to suppress the magic power spilling out from the Heart’s Gem."
After turning into the appearance of Emerald Sparrow, Lin Yun’s tone became even more indifferent: "This is the side effect of me completely destroying a part of my magical apparatus, I occasionally can’t maintain my human form."
"I’ve actually heard about this."
Asou Haruka nodded: "Although the Dean mentioned it in jest, seeing it with my own eyes is the first time. Is this side effect so severe that you must seek a cure immediately?"
"No."
Emerald Sparrow shook her head: "If it were just this, even though it’s becoming more uncontrollable, I wouldn’t risk provoking The Queen."
"So?"
"The problem is that a few days ago, when I tried to use the magical apparatus, something happened."
As Emerald Sparrow said this, she pulled out a few strands of Magic Silk, the radiant blue Magic Silk stretched taut between her fingers, presenting itself before the other two: "Do you see any problem?"
Hong Siyu and Asou Haruka had to lean forward to take a look and after a brief observation, they each had a different answer:
"The color is paler?"
"The thickness of the threads is coarser?"
But hearing these responses, Emerald Sparrow just shook her head.
She held the Magic Silk in her hand, stretching her arm forward, until she almost brought the thread to the eyes of the other two. She then freed up a finger to point at a bright spot on one of the threads:
— "It has knotted."
