Transform into a magical girl after getting off work

She suddenly realized that the sound was not coming from her own phone, but from Lin Yun's.

"Emerald Sparrow's phone" had been knocked out during the previous battle with Sparrow, falling from the sky onto the road, and by the time Emerald Sparrow retrieved it, the cracks on the screen were nearly as exaggerated as the flower in her heart.

With the phone in such shape, it naturally couldn't be used anymore, so Emerald Sparrow had no choice but to switch to another one with resignation.

Also, because of a mix-up at the shopping center earlier, after getting a new phone, she very cautiously set both phones to permanent silent mode, with only the vibration frequency different, distinguishing which phone was receiving a call by this alone.

Right now, without a doubt, the vibration was coming from "Lin Yun's phone."

Having identified the source of the sound, Emerald Sparrow chose not to take it out in front of the two girls; she jumped off the chair, placed the textbook on its surface, and said coldly, "I'm going out for a moment."

After leaving Xia Liang's room and crossing the living room to reach the balcony, she took out the phone from her pocket and saw a somewhat familiar name displayed on it—it was from a customer at Gaoseng Company.

This actually wasn't surprising, or rather, she had vaguely guessed it.

Because it hadn't been long since Lin Yun resigned, although she had broadcast messages on social media, widely announcing her departure and providing a new post-sales department contact number, there were always people who didn't read messages.

Handling such calls wasn't troublesome; all she had to do was tell the truth. Once they knew she had resigned, they would naturally contact someone else.

However, she was still at Xia Liang's house and it truly wasn't convenient to transform and take the call.

If she reverted back to Lin Yun, speaking just a bit louder on the balcony might allow the two girls in the room to hear a man's voice. That would be too suspicious.

Emerald Sparrow made up her mind and promptly hung up the call. After all, she had seen the caller's name displayed and could just send a text message to inform them.

As she was calculating this, she tapped the message button and a white text message interface popped up on the phone, waiting for her to enter the content.

But at the same moment, she heard footsteps behind her.

She got a shock, quickly pressed the screen lock button, then hid the phone back in her pocket, and turned around nonchalantly as if nothing was amiss, looking over calmly.

The person was Xia Liang.

"Junior, I've finished the problems," Xia Liang said, waving the papers in her hand and yawning, seemingly not noticing anything off about Emerald Sparrow, "It's quite late already, can I go take a bath and sleep now?"

"Finished?" Emerald Sparrow was expressionless, but inside she was somewhat surprised because she remembered that the paper had been brought out less than an hour ago, "That paper should have a large volume of questions, didn't you skip any?"

"I didn't skip any, you can check if you don't believe me," Xia Liang said with a smile, stretching the test paper out in front of Emerald Sparrow, "I even solved the hardest problem."

"The hardest problem?" Emerald Sparrow didn't recall setting any difficult questions on the paper, feeling a bit puzzled, but she still took the paper and subconsciously scanned through the questions on it.

It was at the moment her eyes touched the paper that she sensed something was amiss: the paper only had the multiple choice and fill-in-the-blank sections at the beginning completed, in reality, it was far from finished.

What did this mean?

Emerald Sparrow couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. Your adventure continues at empire

She didn't think Xia Liang would play such a silly little prank; nor did she think it was an act of laziness. Therefore, she figured there must be some purpose behind it, but what could it be?

Thinking back on their previous conversation, she quickly realized something, her eyes widened, and she abruptly looked up to meet the smiling face of Xia Liang.

Vrrr—

Almost at the same moment, the vibrating sound from the phone came from Emerald Sparrow's pocket.

In her gaze, Xia Liang withdrew the hand that was presenting the paper and took two steps closer, pulling out a phone from behind her back.

The girl lit up her phone's screen to show a highlighted call interface, and between the glowing buttons, the caller's name was fuzzily displayed.

—Uncle Lin.

"Junior," in front of her, Xia Liang wore an unprecedented joyful smile, with a little pride as if a scheme had succeeded, and a touch of teasing.

She was like a little fox that had succeeded in its scheme, showing off its prey and leaning in close to Emerald Sparrow's ear, whispering in a lowered voice:

"This time, did Uncle Lin leave his phone at your place?"
