Chapter 21: Sign a Contract with Me and Become My Pet Girlfriend!

A crisp snap of fingers echoed through the containment room.

Lu Yiyi’s eyelids twitched, and her unfocused pupils slowly regained their light.

Her thoughts stalled for two seconds.

‘What was I about to do?’

She vaguely remembered she’d been planning to retrace her exact movements over the past five hours.

She shook her head.

‘Why think about that?’

‘Too much trouble.’

‘Those messy details didn’t matter at all. The only thing that mattered was that she and Miss Xia had hit it off wonderfully.’

‘Happy times always flew by fast. That was completely normal.’

The confusion on Lu Yiyi’s face vanished, replaced by a feeling of fullness and joy.

“Miss Xia, I had such a great time chatting with you today! Time really flew by.”

She turned around and waved her little hand at Xia Qimeng, who sat behind the desk.

Her voice was sugary sweet, the tail end carrying a hint of playful coaxing.

“See you tomorrow! I’ll come early!”

Xia Qimeng took a sip of black tea, her eyes, a mix of black and color, shimmering with a deep smile.

“I had a great time too. Be safe on the road, Yiyi.”

“Mm-hmm!”

Lu Yiyi nodded firmly and hoisted the strap of her canvas bag onto her shoulder.

The pure gold blast-proof door slid open to both sides.

She skipped out, her whole back view radiating carefree cheer, her two low twin tails bouncing with each step.

Xia Qimeng watched the small figure disappear at the end of the corridor, waiting until the door closed again.

She set down her teacup and lightly traced the rim with her long, slender fingers.

The seed planted today had already taken root.

All that was left was to wait for this little rabbit to walk into the cage herself and lock the door.

The elevator climbed upward.

Lu Yiyi leaned against the elevator wall, humming the high-energy tune of “Only My Railgun.”

‘Today was amazing. Not only did I get a super high evaluation score, I also unexpectedly got closer to Miss Xia. Miss Xia is beautiful, gentle, and secretly a fellow anime fan. In the pressure cooker that is the Paranormal Bureau, this is practically a gift from heaven!’

She was already looking forward to tomorrow.

‘What snacks should I bring Miss Xia tomorrow? I need to study some recipes carefully. I can’t let the fairy sister down.’

“Ding.”

The elevator arrived at the first floor.

The moment Lu Yiyi stepped out, she was startled by the scene in front of her.

The entire first-floor lobby was packed with fully armed special operations agents.

Though the dark gun muzzles weren’t aimed directly at her, the interwoven aura of grim seriousness was incredibly oppressive.

Tactical floodlights lit the lobby blindingly bright, and every single person was on edge.

Supervisor Zhao stood at the center of the crowd, pacing back and forth.

Seeing Lu Yiyi walk out of the elevator safe and sound, Supervisor Zhao finally let out a breath of relief and stopped.

“Little Lu!”

Supervisor Zhao dashed forward in a single bound and grabbed Lu Yiyi’s arm.

He looked her up and down, afraid she’d lost even a single strand of hair.

“You’re finally out! Nothing happened, right?”

The concern in his voice was more sincere than a biological father’s.

This girl was the only treasure capable of calming that living ancestor on the 17th floor underground.

Xia Qimeng was a space-type spirit master.

Calamity-class.

If she really threw a fit, the entire Paranormal Bureau would be finished in ten seconds.

No, not even that slow.

“Nothing happened, Supervisor Zhao.”

Lu Yiyi was bewildered by Supervisor Zhao’s exaggerated reaction.

She looked at the special ops team around her, tense as if facing a great enemy, then back at the extremely warm and friendly Supervisor Zhao.

“Miss Xia is very nice. We had a great chat.”

She blinked her big, watery eyes, her voice soft and gentle, carrying a strange kind of pure and simple cluelessness.

At those words, the special ops agents exchanged glances.

Nice? Her?

Could that person… even be considered human?

Supervisor Zhao looked at Lu Yiyi’s adorable, naive little face and found himself speechless.

This girl was clearly the kind, simple, no-scheming type at first glance.

She spoke softly, with a gentle, pushover personality.

No wonder Xia Qimeng favored her.

This kind of natural airhead… was indeed rare in the Paranormal Bureau.

“Glad you two got along, glad you got along.”

Supervisor Zhao wiped his forehead and nodded repeatedly.

“Everyone, stand down! Alarm lifted! Get back to your posts!”

He turned and waved at the special ops agents around him.

The agents quickly put away their weapons and evacuated the lobby in orderly fashion.

The heavy pressure dispersed with them.

Supervisor Zhao put on a kind, friendly smile again, rubbed his hands together, and sidled up to Lu Yiyi.

“Little Lu, you worked hard today. The Bureau highly recognizes your work performance.”

He cleared his throat, putting forth his utmost sincerity.

“I just applied to the higher-ups. Starting today, your personal file clearance is raised to the highest level.”

“You don’t have to do any of those operator odd jobs anymore.”

“Your only duty now is to serve as Miss Xia Qimeng’s full-time psychological consultant.”

Lu Yiyi’s eyes went wide, her little mouth slightly open.

‘Full-time psychological consultant?’

‘She got promoted just like that?’

“That’s not all.” Supervisor Zhao kept adding on. “Your salary and benefits are being raised directly to S-rank. The Bureau is assigning you a personal car, and there’s a premium apartment in the city center. You can move in anytime.”

“As long as you can keep Miss Xia’s emotions stable, whatever you need, just ask. The Bureau will do its best to provide.”

Lu Yiyi was dizzy from this sudden shower of fortune.

‘S-rank salary? A personal car? A premium apartment?’

‘I’m just an eighteen-year-old shut-in with social anxiety who failed the college entrance exam and came to work a job!’

‘Happiness came too suddenly.’

“Supervisor Zhao, this… this is too generous, I…”

“Take it, take it! You deserve it!” Supervisor Zhao quickly steadied her, his tone resolute.

He laughed bitterly inside.

‘Kid, this isn’t a benefit for you. This is protection money for that ancestor downstairs.’

“Then… what time do I come to work tomorrow?” Lu Yiyi couldn’t wait to start her new life.

“Whenever you want.” Supervisor Zhao waved his hand grandly. “Come whenever you like. As long as you go see her once a day and keep her mood stable, that’s all that matters. The rest of your time is yours to arrange.”

“Wow! Thank you, Supervisor Zhao!”

Lu Yiyi obediently bowed, her heart blooming with joy.

‘With this money, my whole family’s quality of life is going to take off!’

‘I’ll take Mom and Dad out to eat all kinds of delicious food, and buy tons of anime merchandise!’

‘Miss Xia is really my lucky star!’

‘Meeting a fairy fellow fan, plus getting promoted and a raise, stepping onto the peak of life.’

‘This is a job I could do forever!’

Meanwhile, on the 17th floor underground.

Inside the special containment room.

Xia Qimeng was checking the “cyber criminal record” on her phone memo with one hand, while playing with the pink insulated lunch box with the other.

Beside her sat a tablet displaying photos of various anime characters.

‘Hmm… Illya… Nyaruko… both of these characters have white hair.’

Xia Qimeng looked at the list on her phone memo, softly muttering these names that were completely foreign to her.

‘But… they look way too young. This little magical girl is still in elementary school, fifth grade!’

Xia Qimeng swiped the screen and zoomed in on the images.

The girl in the picture wore a pink fluffy dress, held a magic wand, and was soft and adorable.

She tilted her head and glanced at herself in the full-length mirror not far away.

Snow-white hair fell to her waist, with a slender, graceful figure and beautiful curves.

From any angle, she was a super beauty who combined mystery and maturity with a touch of seductive charm… ahem.

‘My little rabbit actually likes elementary schoolers who haven’t fully developed?’

Xia Qimeng pushed the tablet away, propping her cheek on one hand, lost in thought.

‘What a strange preference.’

‘Could it be that Yiyi, being small herself, prefers her own kind? Does she feel a sense of substitution when watching anime?’

‘No, I can’t follow that line of thinking.’

‘I can’t shrink myself to cater to that preference. I’m going to be the one on top.’

‘I need to find a way to redirect Yiyi’s tastes toward myself.’

Her gaze returned to the memo.

The list was long, and Xia Qimeng patiently scrolled down.

To captivate her little rabbit, she was working her tail off.

A considerable portion of the anime this girl watched were magical girl shows.

She could use that as a breakthrough and look for a character that seemed mysterious and charming.

She tapped open “Puella Magi Madoka Magica.”

She dragged the progress bar, skipping the lengthy everyday scenes, and went straight for the core plot.

On the screen, that white unknown creature called Kyubey was pitching a contract.

“Sign a contract with me, and become a magical girl!”

Xia Qimeng let out a snicker.

‘This little thing looks rather distinctive, and the line isn’t bad either.’

‘In a few days, I’ll say to Yiyi: Come sign a contract with me, submit to me, become my pet girlfriend, and offer me your body, heart, and soul!’

‘Not bad, not bad. So watching anime really can teach you something.’

Finally, her gaze landed on a character that fit her own temperament very well.

‘Hmm…? This one… looks perfect for controlling Yiyi!’
