You wouldn't want them to be bullied, would you?

Cecilia gently tapped Rosalia's head, her expression serious and earnest, as if scolding or admonishing her.

Rosalia covered her head, too afraid to utter any bold words of refusal.

Not long after, Cocolia arrived late in her car and parked in front of the Cocolia Orphanage.

"Dr. Qiu Bi, Ms. Cecilia, let's head to the airport now."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Bi and Cecilia nodded in unison, then took Seele, Rosalia, and Lilia's hands respectively, and rode in the vehicle driven by Cocolia to the airport.

……

Two days later.

Upon hearing that Qiu Bi and Cecilia had brought back three new sisters, Sirin immediately abandoned her grand mission of "Magical Girl Army" and chose to come and welcome Qiu Bi and Cecilia, just to see her three new sisters as soon as possible.

Besides Sirin, Sofia, Alexandra, and Bella also chose to come and greet Qiu Bi and Cecilia.

As for the other girls...

They were either in school or busy with other matters and couldn't come to greet Qiu Bi and Cecilia.

"Mom, Celine heard that Dad and Cecilia brought three new little sisters back!"

Celine hugged Sophia and affectionately rubbed her face against Sophia's.

“Cilin, you’re 26 years old now. Don’t be as clingy as you were when you were little.”

"But—Cirin will always be her mothers' daughter!"

As she spoke, Celine didn't forget to hug Alexandra, showing no favoritism.

Alexandra smiled without saying a word, and gently stroked Sirin's back.

Now, Celine is a mature "adult," not only in terms of personality and cognition, but also in terms of her fully developed body, perfectly inheriting Sofia's figure.

However, Celine's temperament is quite different from Sophia's, and there are subtle differences in their appearances, making the two look quite similar, yet they can be easily distinguished.

"But you can't always act like you're never growing up."

Sophia seemed both annoyed and reproachful, but she didn't really mean to blame Sirin.

Then, Celine smiled, as if she had discovered something, and suddenly said, "Daddy and Cecilia Mommy are out!"

Upon hearing Sirin's words, Sophia, Alexandra, and Bella immediately looked towards the airport exit and saw Qiu Bi and the others who had just walked out of the airport.

In an instant, Sirin tore through the purple void and appeared before Qiu Bi and Cecilia.

"Mommy Cecilia, Sirin missed you so much!"

Celine nestled into Cecilia's arms, nuzzling her chest affectionately and skillfully.

Cecilia gently stroked Sirin's long purple hair, then smiled and said, "Little Sirin, I missed you too."

The sudden appearance of Sirin seemed to frighten Seele, Rosalia, and Lilia, causing the three girls to instinctively hide behind Qiu Bi and secretly peek at Sirin, who was being held by Cecilia.

Perhaps noticing the three girls' gazes, or perhaps realizing that she had frightened them, Celine quickly released Cecilia and then looked at the three girls hiding behind Qiu Bi.

"Dad, is this my new little sister?"

"Ah."

Qiu Bi responded lightly, and then introduced Seele, Rosalia, and Lilia one by one.

“Seele, Rosalia, Lilia, this is Sirin—one of your older sisters, and the oldest one at that.”

"Dad, don't mention a magical girl's age so casually, it's a big taboo! It might... bring bad luck~"

sound off.

Before Qiu Bi could reply, Xilin was tapped on the head.

—The one who reprimanded Sirin was Sophia.

"Cirin, you're not allowed to talk to your father like that."

"Woo~"

Sirin let out a cute, pitiful cry, while simultaneously reaching out to cover the spot where Sophia was hitting.

"Mom, don't hit Celine on the head—she might become stupid!"

Chapter 124 "Bronya must be possessed by a demon!"

Sophia glared at Sirin reproachfully, then continued, "If you weren't old enough to be a child, I would have spanked you."

"Waaah~ Daddy, Mommy is bullying Xilin!"

Xilin hid behind Qiu Bi, looking timidly at Sophia.

Qiu Bi chuckled, pressed down on Xilin's head, and gently rubbed it a few times.

“Cilin, stop acting like a child. You need to be more mature.”

“Dad, Celine is very mature in front of outsiders~ Only in front of Dad, Mom and my sisters does Celine act like a little kid.”

Xilin revealed a sly smile, and at the same time took the opportunity to press down on Xier's head, imitating Qiu Bi's stroking motion, and gently stroked Xier.

Seele seemed a little shy and dared not resist Sirin's actions, so she could only grab Qiu Bi's trouser leg and let Sirin rub her.

Seeing this, Sirin squatted down in front of Seele and examined her carefully, as if she had discovered some new and interesting "toy".

At this moment, a certain "quality" of the two attracted each other, unconsciously drawing them closer.

—That is a trait called "little angel".

The next second, Sirin hugged Seele tightly, as if she had found a like-minded "partner", and immediately extended a sincere invitation.

"Seele, quickly sign a contract with me and become a magical girl!"

"Huh? Magical girl... what's that?"

Seele had always lived in an orphanage and had never even heard of the "sea," let alone a "magical girl."

Qiu Bi reached out and gently tapped Xilin's head to stop her "QB behavior".

Compared to Qiu Bi, who has a similar name, Sirin, after acquiring the "Law of Cycles," is more like a true "QB," searching everywhere for girls to sign contracts with.

It's fair to say that 80% of the women in Academy City have become members of the magical girl army.

"Cirin, stop fooling around, let's hurry home—Qiu Bi and Cecilia haven't been home for a long time, and this is the first time Seele, Rosalia, and Lilia have come here."

Sophia grabbed Sirin's arm and pulled her away from Seele and to her side.

Sirin immediately pouted in dissatisfaction, but did not resist Sophia's actions, instead standing pitifully beside Sophia.

Cecilia covered her mouth and chuckled, then took Rosalia and Lilia's hands and returned to the apartment with the others.

Seele, Rosalia, and Lilia adapted to their new environment quickly, having already settled into life in Academy City after only three days.

There was only one thing that made Rosalia and Lilia unhappy: both girls had to go to school.

Seele didn't react much to this and obediently went to and from school on time.

It's worth mentioning that, due to their similar ages, Seele, Rosalia, Lilia, Anne, and Bronya became very close "sisters."

At the same time, perhaps influenced by Sirin, Bronya has become the "big sister" among the five girls.

Most people's lives are ordinary and mundane, with few special ups and downs.

However, everyone quite enjoys this kind of life.

Sofia, Alexandra, Cecilia, and Bella stayed in the apartment, either taking care of their daughters or doing housework, allowing Qiu Bi to work without any worries.

Raiden Mei would occasionally visit Qiu Bi's house under various pretexts, clearly with ulterior motives.

Cecilia, Sofia, Alexandra, and Bella all tacitly agreed to this, and none of them exposed Raiden Mei's little scheme.

……

April 2013, 11, heavy rain.

The rain seemed to veil the world in a dreamlike mist, making it difficult for people to see the outside world clearly.

This is a once-in-a-century downpour, seemingly foreshadowing some ominous sign.

This sudden downpour severely impacted the lives of most people, with shops closing and schools shutting down...

Many people were injured in the heavy rain and struggled to get to the nearest hospital.

—Being a doctor is perhaps one of the few professions where you can't stop working.

The magical girls were also busy, running around Academy City under the leadership of Sirin, Aurora, Agatha, and Galina, helping residents in need, taking them to the hospital, or rescuing them from their predicaments.

As for the seemingly endless downpour...

The magical girls didn't have many good options; they could only try to minimize civilian casualties.

True.

Sirin, Aurora, Agatha, Galina, and Bella can activate the Herrscher powers to completely resolve this heavy rain.

However, the girls, including Celine, were not keen on doing so.

The main problem is that no matter how Sirin uses her powers as a Herrscher of Knowledge to conceal the matter, the traces left by the heavy rain will be difficult to completely erase.

Since that's the case, Sirin might as well let the magical girl army resolve this matter, thereby increasing the friendship and bonds among the magical girls.

While Qiu Bi and the magical girls are busy, Cecilia, Sophia, Alexandra, and Bella are also taking care of the five girls who have had to temporarily stop attending school due to the heavy rain.

"Mom, isn't Dad coming home today?"

Bronya leaned against the window, gazing blankly at the hazy rainy scene outside.

Seele, Rosalia, Lilia, and Annie also gathered by the window, anxiously gazing outside.

This is out of concern for Qiu Bi, who is far away in the hospital.

"Dad will come home, but it might be quite late."

Alexandra gently stroked Bronya's hair. "Bronya, have you finished your homework?"

"Of course it's finished. Mom doesn't need to worry about Bronya's studies."

Bronya nestled into Alexandra's arms, enjoying the warmth from her biological mother.

Alexandra looked at Bronya with affection and then said, "Bronya, don't just focus on your own studies. You also need to supervise your younger sisters' studies. After all, when your older sisters aren't around, you're the eldest sister."
