Transform into a magical girl after getting off work-Chapter 542 - 109 Memorial Cemetery_3

Magic-free Zone is also divided into blocks, usually, the area of a small residential block covers about 2 to 3 series, which converts to 3 to 5 square kilometers in the Material Realm units. In total, the Magic-free Zone comprises over three hundred seventy small blocks, and near the two blocks closest to the northeast side, which is nearly adjacent to the school district, there is a rather regular green space. This green area does not prevent anyone from entering, so citizens often come here for walks and relaxation.

Residents who know each other well gather to engage in activities or gossip about neighborhood folks when they have nothing else to do. This place has thus become their public square park.

— "Alright, it's ready."

Emerald Sparrow was pushing the wheelchair she just repaired in place while speaking to an old man sitting by: "You try it, it should be fine now."

It happened to be noon. Emerald Sparrow, having come from the Research Institute, intended to walk around the Magic-free Zone to unwind and digest the information she had just received, and to ease her frustration from being let down by Emerald again. Thus, she discovered an old man nearby in the green area who was stuck due to a wheelchair malfunction.

Considering she had no urgent matters at the moment, she volunteered to help inspect and fix the wheelchair, leading to the current scene.

"Oh, let me try... yes, it moves, it moves, thank you so much."

The old man sat in the wheelchair, tested moving it back and forth, and nodded with a smile: "I was about to call my grandson to pick me up, but with this weather, this blazing sun… I would have ended up scorched by the time that lad got here. Thanks to you, you're very kind. I don't know how to thank you enough, um…"

Mid-sentence, the old man paused as if realizing something, squinted his eyes at Emerald Sparrow a bit longer, mumbling something under his breath before continuing, "…young lady?"

Emerald Sparrow also realized what he was pondering during his pause; after all, in the Magic Kingdom, Magical Girls maintain their youth, and many appear young, but their actual age is unknown. Considering she, as Lin Yun, is nearly 37, she couldn't possibly be older than the man in front of her. She nodded and confirmed, "Yes, I just came to the Magic Kingdom this year for the assessment. I am a newbie Magical Girl."

Though it seemed a bit like pretending to be younger, this phrasing, for the time being, accepted the old man's address.

"Oh, a newbie, hello newbie."

The old man, reassured, seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "Yes, indeed it's that season of the year again."

"Old man, how could you tell I am a Magical Girl?"

Emerald Sparrow was a bit puzzled: "Logically, shouldn't there be a lot of ordinary girls around here as well?"

Although she was indeed still dressed in the extravagant cheongsam belonging to "Long Dan"—even in the fashion-diverse Magic Kingdom, this attire is still considered quite lavish—if she remembered correctly, some people in the Magic-free Zone also favored retro outfits, and a cheongsam wasn't too rare amongst those people.

"Heh, what else could it be? Not to mention your outfit, but the vitality and spirit you Magical Girls have is just different from ordinary girls."

The old man, as if he heard something amusing, pointed at Emerald Sparrow's eyes and couldn't help but laugh, "Even as a newbie, your gaze is nothing like your peers. Somebody with your kind of eyes is someone who wants to be a hero."

"Is that so? Thank you for the compliment." Emerald Sparrow used her facial expression management skills, briefly pondered, and then showed a slightly awkward social smile.

After the treatment from Emerald, her original appearance had returned to normal; she no longer suffered soul-like agony when using Magic Armor, and regular activities no longer felt uncomfortable.

Externally, this meant she could now more naturally display various expressions without constantly worrying about managing her expressions and thereby keeping a strained face.

"Ha, after all, my grandma, she was also a Magical Girl, and I grew up under her care. So, I am more familiar with your affairs."

The old man withdrew his hand, leaned back in the wheelchair slightly: "It was her. She used to love dressing as a young girl to play pranks on people, even joked with my spouse at our wedding. But if someone in the family called her younger or mistook her seniority, she'd get unhappy, causing everyone in the family to tread carefully when addressing her."

"That really is… an interesting senior." Emerald Sparrow responded.

"Indeed, at least I loved her, she was one of my most respected elders."

The old man exhaled, squinted his eyes: "It's just that in a blink of an eye, I've reached her age, and she has long passed. Over these years, no Magical Girls have emerged from our family, unlike when she was around, back then…"

Seemingly unlocking a stream of memories, the old man gradually fell into his reminiscing, and as Emerald Sparrow pushed his wheelchair, leaving the green area, he intermittently talked a lot about his grandmother, who was once a Magical Girl.

This conversation lasted a while until Emerald Sparrow took him back to the relatively bustling city area and parted ways with him. He then somewhat contentedly stopped, greeted her cheerfully, and waved goodbye.
