The villainous magical girl's daily mission is to find fault.

Chapter 381 Bringing the Cats on the Team

Su Tianqing was very familiar with the Orc Mutual Aid Association.

This is a civilian organization led by the Heroes Association, with branches throughout the country, and the vast majority of its members are orcs from various races.

Of course, there are also human members in the organization.

"The Mutual Aid Association is committed to helping orc children who are struggling financially, helping them complete their studies and enter society, and calling on all adult orcs in society to join the ranks of mutual help."

Su Tianqing read out the slogan from the mutual aid association's website and said it to the catgirl beside her.

"I received a lot of help from the mutual aid society; they sponsored my tuition."

"Therefore, I also want to use the mutual aid association to sponsor other children in need so that they can successfully complete their studies."

The fox spirit said with a smile, and Nan Jiayu nodded repeatedly, showing great appreciation.

The mutual aid society has one of the highest reputations, after all, it is a support organization led by the Hero Association, and the people it helps are carefully selected. Since its establishment, it has never had any negative news.

However, both the cat and the fox had some doubts about the claim that there was "no negative news".

"Could this be false advertising?" Su Tianqing questioned.

Even though it's an official organization, it would be a bit of an exaggeration to say that there's absolutely no negative news about it.

When the two opened the mutual aid association's committee list, the rows of black business cards with gold lettering almost blinded them:

Black background with gold lettering—the only designated name card design for active S-class heroes of the Hero Association.

Leaving aside the familiar names from Chengdu like [Meteor], [Electromagnetic], and [Steel], Su Tianqing also spotted a few less familiar codenames.

[Cobra], [Thousand Eyes], [Swallow's Nest], and a code name I'd only ever seen in the news—

Barbarossa Nanhexi

There was no accompanying photo, and even the business card was very distinctive—black background with blue lettering and gold trim—clearly not an ordinary S-class hero.

Just having their business card on their official website gives off a sense of "this guy is really strong."

"With so many S-class heroes endorsing it, it seems quite convincing."

"Yes, and I've also heard of Barbarossa. He's supposedly one of the founders of the Hero Association, and urban legends about him have been circulating for decades," Nan Jiayu added.

These S-class heroes are absolutely among the top in terms of combat power, and the two of them have nothing to say about the strength of this mutual aid society.

Su Tianqing even felt that if the magical girls didn't have astral magic to protect them, they would definitely not be able to defeat these heroes with superpowers.

"So how can we help the child you mentioned, Tianqing? Should we contact the mutual aid society to donate, or are there any other channels for assistance?"

"I've already contacted the mutual aid association, so let's just go find her directly~"

The golden fox girl scrolled through her phone and showed the cat girl a resume of the people she was helping, which she had obtained from the mutual aid association.

Name: Wang Xiaowang; Race: Dog Clan Beastman; Assistance Assessment: Extremely Difficult.

...

Xiaoyu's tutoring session had long since ended, and in the days leading up to the start of school, the two of them had absolutely nothing to do except play.

On this sunny afternoon, with the warm spring sun shining on the land of Chengdu, the cat and the fox went out together and arrived at the entrance of a Mixue Ice Cream store.

"What would you like to drink, Little Fish?"

"Me? I'm easygoing, I'm fine with whatever I drink."

The catgirl carefully examined the menu on the screen and said,

"How about we try the Peach Four Seasons Spring Tea? I had it last time and it was pretty good."

"Okay, I'll place the order now. Two cups of Peach Four Seasons Spring Tea, Little Fish, how much sugar would you like?"

"Three parts sugar."

"Then two cups with 30% sugar~ I want the same flavor as Xiaoyu!"

"Tianqing, don't you want to drink something else?" Nan Jiayu asked, puzzled.

The fox spirit smiled slightly, leaned close to the erect cat ears, and whispered:

"If it's the same flavor, wouldn't that mean I can taste the same flavor as you, Little Fish?"

"————"

The cat girl froze for a moment, her cheeks turning bright red, while the fox girl had already chuckled and hopped to the counter to order.

...Seriously, I can't withstand the sunshine's onslaught at all. Nan Jiayu thought helplessly.

Fox Girl was taking orders, while Nan Jiayu herself was looking around the shop where drinks were being made.

Like most milk tea shops, this Mixue Ice Cream shop has an open production counter, where you can clearly see the beverage making process, which is one of the shop's selling points.

Her gaze swept over the rows of raw material barrels, then gradually moved downwards, finally landing on a dog's tail that was swaying.

Its fur is dark brown with a tuft of white hair at the tip—a classic Bernese Mountain Dog coat color.

Its height is about the same as mine, which is quite small for the Bern Mountain tribe.

What caught Nan Jiayu's attention was not her appearance or her serious work demeanor, but rather the overwhelming "magical aura" emanating from her.

For ordinary people, magic is a power that is almost imperceptible. Only those with magical talent or magical girls can feel the existence of "magic".

Theoretically speaking, anyone who has seen the starry sky can possess a portion of astral magic; having magic power is not an uncommon phenomenon.

This capacity to bear magic is used to measure a person's magical talent.

Take, for example, the golden fox beside her. Her magic is unfathomable. Even Red Rose and Mercury cannot compare to her. She has absolutely top-notch magical talent.

And this little dog-girl beastman in the shop...

How should I put it? Her magical talent is almost on par with Lin Muyao, whom I met last time, and even surpasses that of Rabbit and Aurora.

Moreover, Tianqing said that the person she was going to help this time worked at this store, could it be...?

"That's the child."

The fox spirit noticed Nan Jiayu's gaze beside her and whispered something to her.

After a brief silence, the catgirl shuddered and looked on with disbelief.

"Hmm? Her? That child?"

"Yes, that's why I brought Xiaoyu here to go shopping. She's still working."

"But isn't it winter break now? Why is she...?"

Nan Jiayu didn't continue speaking, but was signaled to shut up by Su Tianqing's gaze.

After ordering drinks, Su Tianqing sat in the fried potato shop next door and told Nan Jiayu about the background of the person she was helping.

"I met her a few days ago. This child has a very pitiful background, which is why I want to sponsor her."

Then, the fox girl told the story she had heard from Wang Xiaowang, which, together with the information in the secret manual, formed the background of this dog girl.

The orphanage, the days of being adopted, the life of wandering after the passing of my grandparents, and then the experience of successfully being admitted to a liberal arts college after receiving tuition assistance.

After the description, Nan Jiayu remained silent for a long time, and could only sigh.

"Sigh... I can't believe her background is like this..."

"That's why I had the idea to help her," Su Tianqing said.

"Little Fish, would you like to help her with this?"

"Although we can only play a small role, I feel that as long as we can support her, we might be able to help her."

"Of course I'm willing."

Nan Jiayu answered without hesitation, but then raised her own question:

"But how can we help her? Providing direct financial assistance might cause her to develop bad habits and end up harming her."

"Well..."

Su Tianqing leaned forward and whispered to the catgirl:

"This child really likes magical girls, and is also a fan of mine."

"And...she and Aurora, they're roommates~"
