Esper X Family – Chapter 536 – Super Non-Stop Work

Parallel Fu Qi found his own thoughts a bit ridiculous.

Three years had passed. That little girl must have matured by now.

She should have grown a bit taller too, no longer as small as the figure on the screen.

Besides, how could she possibly have S-rank mental power?

It was probably just a coincidence.

But there seemed to be even more coincidences.

Parallel Fu Qi slowly narrowed his eyes, staring at the silver-haired figure on the monitor.

Silver hair? A little girl? An S-rank Esper?

Could it be the person holding Ye Ge’s hand back then?

Parallel Fu Qi quickly summoned Lou Wei.

“Lou Wei, look. Is she the target we’re looking for?”

“Based solely on a silhouette? That’s unlikely.”

Parallel Lou Wei glanced at the blurry back and shook his head.

“At least there’s a possibility. Let me tell you what I’ve discovered. Do you still remember the girl named Mo Qiuli?”

Parallel Fu Qi then shared Mo Qiuli’s background, interests, and other information with Parallel Lou Wei.

“I suddenly remembered something. The city where Ye Ge and the little girl beside her appeared back then seems to be the city where Mo Qiuli lives.”

Hearing this, Parallel Lou Wei frowned slightly.

“Are you saying that Mo Qiuli is connected to them?”

“Not necessarily. It’s just a sudden thought of mine. Since the intelligence department can’t find any key information, I have to try linking these seemingly impossible coincidences together.”

Since the intelligence department had made such a huge blunder, he, as the bureau director, had to think and deduce for himself.

Thinking in the wrong direction was still better than making no progress at all.

Parallel Lou Wei nodded.

“Do you want me to go take a look myself?”

“The Countermeasures Bureau isn’t short on people. Not everything requires your personal involvement.

I’ll contact the local Countermeasures Bureau branch and have them verify Mo Qiuli’s situation.”

Rеad oո КαtRеaⅾiոɡСаfе

Parallel Fu Qi shook his head and immediately sent instructions to the local branch.

The three S-rank “magical girls” were still fighting evil forces overseas.

As long as they could confirm Mo Qiuli’s status, the doubts would be resolved.

Soon.

The local Countermeasures Bureau branch received the order and immediately sent a check-in notice to the older Mo Qiuli.

If she could report to the branch in a timely manner, she would be cleared of suspicion.

After a short while, Parallel Fu Qi received a report from the branch.

“Mo Qiuli’s condition is completely normal. Her mental power level hasn’t changed at all. She has never left this city from beginning to end.”

“Good work. Keep an occasional eye on her situation, but no need for surveillance.”

Parallel Fu Qi ended the call and fell back into thought.

“Seems like it was my imagination. Still, I’ll keep a closer watch.

There are too many coincidences. This can serve as a backup direction.”

Parallel Lou Wei shifted his gaze to the three figures on the screen.

“Should I go to the island nation to confirm?”

“No need. Unless they appear within Dragon Country’s territory, there’s no need to make a move. The international situation is too tense right now. Everyone is afraid of becoming the next Sentinel Organization.”

“I can infiltrate silently. No one would detect me.”

Parallel Fu Qi paused for a moment.

“…Alright then.”

Since his comrade had said as much, what else was there to say?

The Countermeasures Bureau truly needed answers.

The weight of Ye Ge’s words about “destroying the world” was still far too heavy.

No one could tell if she would actually go through with it.

The Countermeasures Bureau didn’t want to be caught off guard.

Reаⅾ οո КαtReaԁiոɡСаfе

With that, Parallel Lou Wei immediately set off, preparing to leave right away.

Meanwhile.

A black-haired young girl wearing glasses had just left the familiar Countermeasures Bureau building.

She was none other than Ye Yao’s main body, disguised as the older Mo Qiuli!

“Heh heh~ Good thing I’m one step ahead. Didn’t see that coming, did you?”

How could Ye Yao not have made some preparations?

The older Mo Qiuli had left all her electronic devices with her.

And with her super-level stats, Ye Yao could transform in countless ways.

She could effortlessly disguise herself in a way that no one could see through.

Still, Ye Yao hadn’t expected anyone to react that quickly.

The Magical Girl Alliance had barely finished their spree overseas when the Countermeasures Bureau traced it back to Mo Qiuli.

If you said the other party hadn’t cheated, Ye Yao wouldn’t believe it!

Who could it be?

Could it be those two super guessers, parallel Uncle and parallel Dayun Truck?

Stop guessing so well!

The intuition of powerhouses are really annoying.

But whatever.

Ye Yao was feeling playful at the moment, so it wasn’t impossible for her to toy with them a bit.

By the way…

Ye Yao had sensed a familiar aura back at the Countermeasures Bureau branch earlier.

It seemed to be a certain cubic sugar.

Her aura wasn’t inside the restricted zone anymore, so it looked like she had been released.

The little sugar person no longer had to sit in a prison.

Reαⅾ оո KαtRеαԁіոɡСаfе

How joyous.

The only question was her status within the Bureau.

Given her personality, she was probably treated like some kind of mascot. The Bureau likely wouldn’t assign her any missions.

“Hmm, I’ll have to find a chance to lure her out. Let me see if your sugar levels have dropped in this parallel world.”

Ye Yao immediately made up her mind.

The sky was gradually approaching dusk.

Fission body Ye Yao led the two others back the same way, nearly crossing paths with a certain mysterious stowaway guy.

Ye Yao sensed his presence, but he didn’t seem to notice hers.

When Ye Yao realized the nature of the guy, she was flooded with question marks.

Oh no.

The Dayun Truck has gone abroad and is gonna crash into people!

Truly able to fly anywhere in the country ¹ From what I found, 全国可飞 (can fly anywhere in the country) is the term people put on their wechat or qq profile to let employers or sponsors know that they can travel anywhere to work. Apparently it’s also used by female college students for uhh, let’s just say “compensated dating”, basically saying that they can get to rich old men from anywhere. — no, anywhere in the world.

What kind of genius action plan is this?

“So, the Dayun Truck can be this active without the Found Family holding him back.”

Ye Yao finally understood.

Lou Wei was likely heading overseas to catch the “magical girls”.

No, ‘catch’ wasn’t quite the right word either.

He probably just wanted to see what the three eccentric S-ranks were up to.

After all, the Countermeasures Bureau’s intelligence department was suffering from an information disadvantage. They were probably still scrambling like crazy without finding the slightest clue.

There was at least an orphanage in the original world. In this parallel world, they were completely in the dark.

With no leads at all, they would naturally try to seize every single clue.

Who could blame them, since Ye Yao’s magical girl persona, Lullaby, was also the petite, silver-haired loli type?

Unfortunately for them, Lou Wei would come up empty-handed.

Rеαԁ οո ΚatRеaⅾіոgCαfе

He was destined not to find the magical girls overseas today.

Not that Ye Yao wanted to keep hiding from the Dayun Truck either.

It would look like she was avoiding a fight.

The evil forces in the island nation hadn’t been completely cleaned up yet.

The older Mo Qiuli wanted to go a few more times.

And Ye Yao was more than happy to oblige.

If Lou Wei decided to stay put and wait overseas, then so be it. Let’s see whose truck was tougher if they collided!

The worst-case scenario was an ultimate battle between the retired strongest of the modern era and the parallel-world version of the Magical Girl Alliance.

Who would win?

Ye Yao was looking forward to the outcome.

Back on the familiar rooftop.

Ye Yao brought the older Luo Jianhua back into the painting world to continue keeping the beauty in a golden house.

“Magical Girl Flower Leaf” had burned herself out today. She had uttered many embarrassing lines under the expectant gazes of the other two. She really needed some time to recover.

But even so, she was still far behind the older Mo Qiuli, who seemed several years younger.

After becoming a magical girl again, the “fallen genius” was ready to take off once more. Breaking through to S-rank was just around the corner!

Then, Ye Yao went to the painting world where the parallel Xia Lian and the others were staying.

She was about to start her non-stop work.

Tonight is Parallel Sequence Zero’s turn!

Author Note

Being a Level 5 author doesn’t seem to carry much weight. At my level, I probably will never reach the Gold Series level in my lifetime. I’ll just have to give up.
