August 19th, 8 a.m. in the morning, inside a certain classroom of Yandai Elementary School.

The space-time rift, hanging in mid-air like a giant pupil, slowly closed up as the dark green train’s head was abruptly yanked into it. However, at this moment, everyone’s gaze was fixed elsewhere.

Kobe stared blankly at the projection of Xizi Yue’s photo on the wall, swallowing.

Her Magic Wand was not a conventional one, but took the form of a scythe; a red and black magic dress; a cigarette dangling from her lips; and that key is her carefree posture and expression–she was the spitting image of Magical Girl Hongyue.

“Good Lord, isn’t that our Lord Paranoia?” Kobe thought in shock.

“Another mutated magical girl?” Kokonoe Sakura eyed the scythe-wielding magical girl in the photo, raised her eyebrows slightly, pondering in silence.

“Miss, who is this character?” Liu Huazi asked quietly.

“I don’t know her.” Kokonoe Sakura shook her head, her mind filled with a jumble of thoughts.

To date, the known number of magical girls possessing mutated wand forms across the world does not exceed single digits, and excluding “Udina,” one of the three giants, at this very moment, they had all gathered in this unworthy elementary school classroom.

Spirit Bell Child with a “bell”-shaped wand, Ash with an “umbrella”, Qili’s “axe”, Kokonoe Sakura’s “tachi,” Liu Huazi’s “kaleidoscope”… These uniquely gifted magical girls were on par with the highest levels of various national Alliances and were invited to gather here at this crucial juncture.

All for the battle against the upcoming “Witch’s Night.”

Xizi Yue noticed the silence in the classroom, and turned her gaze to the few individuals present, observing their reactions.

Spirit Bell Child sat on a floating black bell, her hands by her buttocks, glanced sidelong at the photo of Magical Girl Hongyue, and quickly averted her gaze, gently swinging her legs as she said, “Boring people.”

Qili tipped her cowboy hat lower, just raising a hand to indicate she didn’t recognize this person;
You Ya shook her head lightly, her pale golden hair swaying gently;

She lifted the teacup, which she was holding at some point, and sipped lightly, “Of course, this is not surprising, considering almost everyone who has been online now knows that a mutated wand represents the most direct talent. A magical girl owning such a wand is decidedly set to join the ranks of world-class, and given her appealing appearance, it’s quite normal for these two photos to have such high discussion and attention levels.”

Xizi Yue paused then added, “And so… as you can see, the public is leaning toward hoping that we could reveal her code name and get her on the scene quickly. But what they don’t know is that, as far as I’m aware, before today… Huanjing never had such an individual.”

Saying this, she pressed the shutter of the magic camera in her hand again, and the second photo was then projected onto the classroom’s blackboard.

The photo’s background suggested it was taken at dusk, seemingly at the Hongdeng Commercial District in Huanjing, as the Huanjing Tower’s silhouette could be dimly glimpsed to one side. The figure of a girl in a dark red long dress stood on the rooftop of a building, leaning slightly over the railing, smoking.

The girl held a giant scythe under her arm, her expression indifferent, her gaze low, overlooking the brightly lit streets afar, her dark red hair dancing in the night sky.

If the previous photo was too blurry, this photo clearly displayed the girl’s face and her unique magic wand.

Even… her slightly reddened eyes could be seen, as if she had just shed tears.

“As you can see, she is a possessor of a mutated magic wand. To date, there are fewer than a handful of such wand holders worldwide, so the likelihood of her being targeted by a witch is not low,” Xizi Yue said calmly, “If any of you know something about her, do remember to report to me promptly, okay?”

Still no response.

“It really is Paranoia…”

In the silence, Kobe thought to himself, his eyes bulging, sweat beading on his erect little feathers, making him look like a drenched chicken. But he quickly regained the dignity of an owl, staring solemnly at the Magical Girl in the photo, so as not to reveal any weaknesses.

“That Contracted Beast over there, do you have any leads?” Xizi Yue asked indifferently without turning her head.

“No leads, but she… she’s so pretty.” Saying this, a trickle of blood flowed from Kobe’s nostrils, which he wiped away with his wing, then adjusted his tone and continued, “And she’s so elegant, this kind of mature charm without losing the feel of a young girl, sinister yet not lacking in innocence…”

His words were cut short by a fist coming down onto his head.

Shi Neian, his eyes surrounded by dark circles, tapped gently on Kobe’s head, seemingly unsatisfied, and then, like Nobita’s mom scolding Nobita in “Doraemon,” pressed two fists against either side of Kobe’s head, and ground them fiercely.
