Chapter 82 Account Operation
"Wow...that girl is so enthusiastic!"
On her way home, Lin Yongxi had to rub her stiff cheeks.
Just now in the lounge, the little girl who barged in saw Lin Yongxi and her eyes lit up:
"You were the one who just emitted such a huge light, weren't you!"
"You're so beautiful, just like a rag doll!"
"Can I be your friend?"
Then, he became very familiar with Lin Yongxi and wouldn't let her go. The two even exchanged contact information and learned that her name was "Duan Zhiyao".
She is younger than Lin Yongxi and is currently in her first year of high school, but she is very tall. Compared to her, Lin Yongxi looks like a little sister.
She didn't seem to be very good at dealing with this kind of enthusiastic and cheerful character, so she could only deal with it awkwardly, and finally made an excuse to ask Chen Mu to leave quickly.
"I thought you two were the same age and would get along well."
Chen Mu said as he drove.
"If we weren't opponents, we could chat," Lin Yongxi said, pursing her lips. "We might even face each other in the next match, I'm not even thinking about it..."
She looked at the contact icon on her phone, feeling a mix of emotions.
Chen Mu, however, was very rational: "You can use this opportunity to gather intelligence."
"Oh, right!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yongxi suddenly sat up straight and couldn't help but ask, "Brother-in-law, have you figured it out? Why are they so confident? What secret trump card do they have?"
"No," Chen Mu replied curtly.
This is also a problem that has been troubling them.
Why exactly do Yulan and her student Duan Zhiyao have such strong confidence in winning the championship?
Is it merely because she accumulated a year's worth of magical power? Even if her magical power is high, it can't undergo a qualitative change until it reaches the [Bud] level. Furthermore, Lin Yongxi possesses the strongest attack method, [Instant Light], making it hard to believe that any opponent of the same level could defeat her. Where does their confidence come from?
"Perhaps only by seeing her compete in person can we find out the truth."
After saying this, Chen Mu stepped on the gas and sped home.
Even if it's just bluffing, they can't overlook any potential threat. They must win this game and cannot accept any other outcome.
...
After returning home, Chen Mu quickly and efficiently did several things.
While cooking, he used his phone to create an official social media account for the identity of "Lin Yongxi".
This is nothing new in today's internet age. I've said it countless times: magical girls are now symbols of celebrities and idols.
He released some brief statements.
The speech included official platitudes such as "As you all guessed, I am the younger sister of [Dawn]", "I came to participate in this competition to inherit her will", "Thank you all for your continued attention and support, and I will not let you down", and "Mr. Chen Mu will be my mentor, and he has given me a lot of help".
It's not too sentimental to make you feel like you're "exploiting the deceased," but it's sincere enough to evoke sympathy for this earnest and hardworking little girl.
Chen Mu is a professional actor; he knows how to write the most appropriate parts without offending people.
That's fine.
These secrets were originally intended to be kept secret for a while, until after the victory, in order to generate the biggest buzz.
But after thinking it over, Chen Mu felt that now was a good time. Although it was good to continue to maintain an air of mystery, being surrounded by the media like today would backfire.
Since the information will inevitably be leaked sooner or later, it's better to take the initiative and issue an official statement first, so as to firmly grasp the initiative in our own hands.
As expected, the post immediately attracted a lot of attention after it was uploaded, with likes and comments soaring.
After they finished eating, a few hours later, their fan count had already risen to over 20,000, and it was still increasing.
"I was among the first to follow! I'm one of the first fans, and I'll always support you!"
"This is so touching. The younger sister inherited her older sister's will and also became a magical girl..."
"Do magical girls also have a bloodline theory? [Aurora] is so strong, her sister must be no ordinary person either."
"Of course! Didn't you see the match footage today? That magic... how could it possibly be cast by a [Seed] level cultivator? That's a genius!"
"Look at the backend, the odds have changed (this comment has been deleted)."
Chen Mu showed these to Lin Yongxi, who completely ignored the previous comments and only looked at the last one. She patted her chest, trembling with fear, and said:
"Luckily, I placed my bet a long time ago!"
"You actually bet on yourself to win?" Chen Mu looked at her incredulously.
Lin Yongxi hummed, "Of course, I started from scratch. All my money was earned by myself. It wasn't easy to come by."
When Lin Yongxi, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, came to Shenyue City to seek refuge with her brother-in-law Chen Mu, she was penniless. She had just bought a plane ticket after running away from home, but the next second her credit card was frozen. She didn't even have money for food and had to rely on Chen Mu for food and drink every day.
Even the money to buy new phone cards and top up phone credit was given to her by Chen Mu, but she was clearly not satisfied with this kind of life, so she wanted to earn her own money.
Chen Mu reminded him, "So you have to win the championship. If you lose, all your efforts will be wasted."
"No need for you to tell me, I'm currently cultivating diligently around the clock!"
Lin Yongxi said, pouting.
She was originally quite confident about winning the championship, but after meeting Duan Zhiyao and hearing the "rumors that shook the morale of the army," she became somewhat uneasy.
That could be a rival who threatens your finances!
So after returning home today, she sat up straight as soon as she finished eating and began to absorb magic and comprehend magic.
Chen Mu smiled and didn't disturb her. Instead, he continued to browse the comments and followers he had received on his phone, as well as the match videos and other messages uploaded today.
"Why don't you take this account and password and run it yourself? I'm already being your mentor, why would I have to be your agent too?"
"Well……"
Lin Yongxi immediately lost her composure and became guilty: "No way, I usually like and comment on silly videos all the time. If someone sees that, my image will be ruined."
Chen Mu thought about it and realized that this guy had indeed forwarded a lot of his past posts to him. When he saw more than a dozen messages, he thought it was something important, but when he opened them, they were all short videos with gibberish and slang. It made him feel a bit of a generation gap and wondered if he was too old to keep up with the things that young people were into.
Thinking that it would be inappropriate for this guy to manage the account himself, I can only say:
"Then you have to pay me a salary, otherwise I'll support you and work for you. I'm just your brother-in-law, not your father."
"Okay, okay, I got it... I'll pay you after I win this match!"
Lin Yongxi finally reverted to her usual pampered young lady demeanor, waving her hand dismissively.
Chen Mu said that was more like it, and continued to browse the contents of his phone. As he looked at the screen, he suddenly noticed that a new video had been pushed to him.
That wasn't the radiance Lin Yongxi released on the stage. In those monotonous videos, the figure of another magical girl appeared.
It was Duan Zhiyao; someone even filmed how she defeated her opponent on the field.
Since it was uploaded to the website, there must be something noteworthy about it.
"oh……?"
As expected, Chen Mu made a meaningful remark after reading it.
