Chapter 60: No Calculation Can Prepare for This
Testing the situation needs to find a suitable time, but another matter is already urgent.
The next day, when the white light gathered before them and transformed into the petite yet mature senior, the three magical girls present began to communicate with their eyes.
“Senior, Linglan, it’s better if you two handle this!” Siam looked eagerly at the two beside her.
The secret of Senior Bai Ye was discovered by Linglan, and Rosemary is their senior and has the best relationship with Senior Bai Ye, so it’s better for these two to reveal the senior’s secret.
“Senior, why don’t you handle it? I’m afraid if I say it, Senior Bai Ye will beat me to death.” Luo Shuangxing also looked at Rosemary with wide eyes.
She found the way Senior Bai Ye’s secret was discovered a bit too abstract, abstract to the point where she didn’t dare to say it out loud.
How could she dare to say such things as, “I saw the scenery under your skirt!” The senior in front of her is a Blooming Level magical girl, one who could easily defeat her with just a finger!
Feeling the pressure from both juniors, Xia Mo was also feeling anxious.
“What are you three playing at, trying to speak in riddles?” Luo Shuangyue, with a pale face, looked confused at the three magical girls. What were they exchanging looks about?
Was there something that couldn’t be said directly?
Was the training too easy?
Prompted by this question, Xia Mo immediately felt a shiver run down her spine. She scratched her cheek and said to her senior in a very embarrassed tone, “Senior, can we talk separately over there?”
While speaking, she pointed toward a small grove nearby.
Luo Shuangyue furrowed her brows, sensing that the matter was not simple.
What could possibly need to be said in private?
“Alright.”
Entering the small grove with Xia Mo, Luo Shuangyue heard her shyly ask, “Senior, when you were training us before, you weren’t actually in transformation mode, were you?”
?
Luo Shuangyue’s pupils constricted slightly. Had she been discovered? Or was it Xia Mo who discovered it?
“I…”
“Senior, you don’t need to think about refuting me. Since I dare to say this, there is definitely a hundred percent certainty!” Xia Mo’s gaze was intense as she looked at the white-haired girl before her.
Seeing this look in her eyes, Luo Shuangyue knew she could no longer hide it.
She recalled her recent encounters with Xia Mo, and there hadn’t been any slip-ups.
So how did Xia Mo discover this secret?
Unable to think of an answer, Luo Shuangyue sighed inwardly.
However, from Xia Mo’s current demeanor, her attitude towards this matter seemed different from what Luo Shuangyue expected. In Xia Mo’s eyes, Luo Shuangyue saw not anger from being deceived, but a sense of concern.
She is concerned about me?
“You’re very perceptive. Tell me, how did you notice something was off?” Removing the white hairpin from her hair, white magical light points emanated from Luo Shuangyue.
Xia Mo personally witnessed her Senior Bai Ye de-transforming. Although the clothes she wore before and after transformation were almost identical, the former was clearly more vibrant compared to the latter.
“I thought my disguise was perfect, even the clothes were replicated exactly.”
After de-transforming, the weakness on Luo Shuangyue’s face became more apparent, to the point where even Xia Mo could tell at a glance.
She, of course, didn’t know it was due to Luo Shuangyue staying up all night battling snake venom, and thought it was simply that Bai Ye was indeed struggling to maintain her transformation.
“Senior, are you alright? Your face looks a bit…”
“Don’t worry, it’s just some minor issues. A few days of rest will do.” Luo Shuangyue shook her head, “You haven’t answered my question yet.”
Then, Luo Shuangyue saw Xia Mo’s expression visibly turn awkward.
“Um… can we skip this?”
“What do you think?” Luo Shuangyue shot her a glare, the imposing aura she had learned from her senior pressing down on Xia Mo.
Facing the imposing senior, Xia Mo lowered her head and honestly said, “Actually, it wasn’t me who discovered it; it was Linglan who accidentally saw that your skirt didn’t have any radiant light blocking the view.”
Silence.
A long silence.
Xia Mo timidly shot glances at Bai Ye, fearing that once the senior learned the truth, she would explode in anger.
But the worst situation she feared did not occur.
Bai Ye’s expression was complex, somewhat resembling someone who had prepared for every eventuality, yet never expected this situation to arise.
Who would have thought her exposure would come from such a reason!
It wasn’t her actions, nor the quality of her clothing, but rather the absence of holy light under her skirt that revealed her!
Though this reason was indeed powerful and could directly indicate that this person was currently not in magical girl mode, hearing this excuse still gave Luo Shuangyue a feeling of absurdity.
No matter the calculations, who would have predicted that little rascal Linglan would have such a peculiar habit!
“Linglan… sigh… I see.”
Looking at her senior’s solemn expression, Xia Mo couldn’t help but shrink her neck, feeling that today, Linglan might just have to face the consequences on her way home.
