My Superpower Is Piloting Magical Girl Corpses?

“…”

Xia Yao seemed a bit angry about him keeping secrets. She turned her back to him, her shoulders trembling slightly.

Both of them fell into silence.

But in the next instant, accompanied by the sharp shouts of the SWAT officers, the beam of a flashlight suddenly swept over from the factory entrance, illuminating their figures.

“Who goes there!! Don’t move!!”

Just as expected.

Being this close, it was only natural they’d be discovered. After all, the young lady was just an ordinary person and couldn’t conceal her aura.

Uncle An sighed helplessly, squinting slightly in the harsh light as he prepared to step forward and say something.

But at that moment.

The young girl standing in front of him finally seemed unable to hold back anymore. She stretched out her arm and waved it vigorously, her voice bursting with extreme excitement.

“Police officer!! Police officer!!”

Seeing her outfit—the typical look of a wealthy, well-behaved girl—the SWAT officers were momentarily stunned again, then relaxed.

The youthful, beautiful girl bounced over in front of them, her eyes practically sparkling, her pretty face showing not a hint of anger—instead, it was filled with the excitement and joy of uncovering a secret.

Of course she was trembling—it was from sheer excitement. Who had time to be mad?

The captain couldn’t help but scold, his tone carrying a stern reprimand: “A student? Which school are you from? What are you doing here at night with nothing to do?! Do you know how dangerous this place is? Where’s your guardian?!”

Uncle An stepped forward helplessly, watching as his young lady, with stars practically shining in her eyes, shamelessly latched onto the leading officer, her voice brimming with energy:

“Police officer, can I go to the police station with you to give a statement?! I can skip class tomorrow! I can even give you a reward!”

She looked up at the captain, her eyes sparkling like little stars: “In exchange, can you tell me what incredible things Lin Guang has done before?”

“I’m chasing him!!”

The SWAT officers: “……”

Another troublesome young lady showed up.

…

Whether the female officer planned to deal with that flawed statement or not, Lin Guang returned home.

After a quick wash, it was already late at night.

Just then, the old-fashioned phone on the table suddenly vibrated.

It was Officer Gao.

Lin Guang picked up the phone.

“…Lin Guang, you really are…”

The moment he answered, the other party’s voice came through, tinged with fatigue, but more so with suppressed shock and excitement.

Officer Gao thought for a long time but couldn’t find the words to describe it, so he switched to a more practical topic.

“You’ve really made a huge contribution this time.”

“To be honest, I didn’t expect the Black Cloud Society to be so insane, trying to spread that kind of stuff. There’s definitely an organization backing them, and the higher-ups are taking this very seriously.”

“Stopping its spread in advance and cutting off the Black Cloud Society’s reach into Wind Capital—it’s not only safeguarded public order but also greatly boosted my influence within the system. It’s a huge help for my upcoming promotion assessment.”

“I’ll do my best to secure the reward money for this. I can’t give you a specific number yet, but your share alone shouldn’t be less than 150,000.”

Officer Gao paused, as if he found the amount a bit hard to mention, then continued:

“I know this money is too little compared to your contribution. I have some savings over the years…”

“Mm.”

Lin Guang accepted the reward he deserved in a calm tone: “Just follow the usual procedure.”

Officer Gao’s voice noticeably relaxed, as if he’d let out a sigh of relief:

“Alright, I’ll transfer it directly to the public account of that orphanage. I’ll also use my connections as much as possible to give them better access, ensuring they have better educational conditions and guidance, so they won’t go down the wrong path.”

“Mm.”

Lin Guang responded.

Officer Gao’s words also came to a halt.

The two fell into silence.

Perhaps it was because Lin Guang’s performance tonight was too extraordinary, or maybe the statement the female officer had provided was riddled with so many holes that even he found it hard to vouch for.

Even though Lin Guang had assisted in capturing armed criminals in the past, compared to tonight’s display, it seemed insignificant.

This wasn’t something that could be explained by common sense.

But if he were to ask…

It might break some long-standing unspoken understanding.

The silence lasted a full half-minute.

Lin Guang sat at his desk and suddenly asked:

“Is the Black Cloud Society incident related to those cases where people went missing or were even scared out of their minds?”

Officer Gao seemed a bit surprised by Lin Guang’s sudden mention of this: “You know about that too?”

“Mm, I found out a couple of days ago.”

“As of now…”

He paused: “No connection.”

Officer Gao’s tone carried a hint of confusion: “That case is under the jurisdiction of the Eastern District Branch in the eastern suburbs, but I’ve heard about it. The crime scene over there… was eerie. Completely different from the style of gang turf wars.”

The two exchanged a few more simple words.

Just before hanging up, Officer Gao hesitated, then finally spoke.

“Why do you ask? Do you see similarities between the two incidents?”

Lin Guang was silent for a moment.

“I don’t have any evidence yet.”

But he had already started to suspect.

He didn’t voice the latter half, but Officer Gao understood.

“…”

“Even though you’re skilled, make sure to stay safe.”

“Click—”

With that as the final remark, the other party hung up.

Lin Guang looked at the darkened screen, a flicker of surprise in his eyes.

He had been thinking about how to fabricate a reasonable excuse to explain that extraordinary power.

After all, today’s level of performance had been a spur-of-the-moment decision for him too.

Unexpectedly, the other party hadn’t even asked, saving him the trouble of explanation.

…

The dignified middle-aged man in police uniform put down the phone.

This was the most secluded office in the Western District Branch.

The blinds were tightly drawn, and the office was empty except for him.

Under the dim desk lamp, a few photos were scattered across the table.

The photos had poor resolution and looked blurry.

But in the center of those blurry images, a few spine-chilling figures could be faintly made out.

Some had muscles bulging like tumors, their bodies distorted and huge, while others seemed to display animal features—growing wolf-like fur with a faint gleam of sharp claws.

And in the bottom-right corner of the file was pinned a high-definition photo.

A device resembling a special syringe was discarded in the crevices of the rubble, with traces of green liquid still clinging to the inner walls, glinting eerily under the flash.

This was a fresh evidence photo taken tonight.

Officer Gao looked at these fragments of clues, like puzzle pieces, and reached out to put them into a file folder.

—Someone from higher up had reserved these clues in advance and would come to collect them in a few days.

He then rubbed his temples and let out a long sigh.

“Not just the higher-ups, but even you think these things are connected?”

“Troubled times…”

“Wind Capital, a storm is coming.”
