"Meilu, what are your plans after that?" Liang Jingyi asked.

"If I pay the penalty for breach of contract, I might only have this house left. Selling the house might give me some living expenses for the rest of my life," Meilu looked at Panyue, "I wonder if Panyue can take me in?"

"Of course!" Pan Yue said, "Little Pan Yue has been clamoring to live with you recently. I would welcome you to come to my house and live with us!"

"I also welcome you with open arms and feet!" Xiao Panyue said happily.

Half a year passed quickly, and Pan Yue knew that that thing was about to happen.

It was found that Liang Jingyi's father had accepted bribes and was wrongly convicted when he was young. Now the family who was wrongly convicted has found a backer and requested a retrial of the original case, together with the trial of Liang's father who accepted bribes, to seek justice for the wronged person.

And because of some coincidences, it was Liang Jingyi who reopened the case and presided over the trial of Liang's father.

Liang Jingyi could choose to enforce the law impartially, then her father would be thrown into jail and her family would be torn apart.

Of course, if she had selfish motives, she could continue to try the case according to her father's verdict.

But private transactions and breaking the law knowingly were what she hated the most.

In all previous world lines, Liang Jingyi chose to enforce the law impartially when judging Liang's father.

Liang's father committed suicide by jumping off a building because he could not bear the pressure of public opinion. Liang Jingyi's faith was shaken and she finally collapsed and turned into a witch.

No matter how everyone tried to persuade them in each world line, they were unable to stop Liang Jingyi from turning into a witch.

Pan Yue even went against morality and advised Liang Jingyi to avoid the trial of Liang's father by compensating the victim's family, but was sternly rejected by Liang Jingyi and they almost broke off the ties.

But this time, Pan Yue felt that Liang Jingyi had a chance of being rescued.

Because this time, Meilu did not become the Lost Witch.

The magical girl who is about to appear may really be able to save Liang Jingyi.

"Recently, several citizens have said they have seen ghosts in many places." Liang Jingyi took out a few reports and placed them on the coffee table, and everyone turned their eyes to him.

"What the hell? Could it be a witch's doing?" Xia Ling analyzed.

"Jingyi and I did some preliminary investigation. The witnesses came to us and said that they saw ghosts in schools, amusement parks, fried chicken restaurants and People's Square," Hu Mengqian added.

"Ah! When did it happen? Why didn't you take me with you?" Xia Ling asked.

"It's because you insist on watching Huanhuan beat witches to get gold coins all the time, so I can only go with Meng Qian to investigate other witches." Liang Jingyi explained.

"It seems like he is a troublemaker who likes to play..." Meilu thought.

"Anyway, let's split up and conduct field investigations first." Liang Jingyi made the decision.

The six magical girls were divided into three waves.

Liang Jingyi, Xia Ling and Hu Mengqian went to the amusement park to investigate.

Meilu and Yanhuan went to People's Square and a nearby fried chicken shop to investigate.

Pan Yue went to the school alone to investigate.

In the amusement park, several magical girls changed into their regular clothes and were touring around.

"Wow, Jingyi! Look at that float! It's so beautiful!" Xia Ling ran around like a child, holding one string of grilled squid after another in her hands and a bag of roasted chestnuts hanging on her wrist, having a lot of fun.

"You, are you here to investigate the witch or to have fun? I shouldn't have believed you and assigned you to the amusement park..." Liang Jingyi followed her worriedly, fearing that Xia Ling would get lost if she didn't see her at first glance.

Hu Mengqian also followed with a bunch of snacks.

Xia Ling ate the food in her hand, threw away the garbage, and stopped to take a photo of the float from a suitable angle. Suddenly, she was bumped by a girl wearing a local junior high school uniform and a pair of low ponytails tied with a heart-shaped hairband. Although she saved the camera in her hand, the squid skewer in her other hand fell to the ground because she didn't hold it firmly.

"Sorry!" The girl turned around and apologized, then ran away in a hurry.

"Ah! What happened?" Xia Ling pouted and looked unhappily at the squid that had been thrown on the ground and was no longer edible.

"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly unhappy?" Liang Jingyi walked forward and asked.

"Just now a girl ran over and bumped into me, knocking my squid off." When Xia Ling saw Liang Jingyi coming over, she immediately started crying.

"Don't be sad, I'll buy you another one." Liang Jingyi coaxed.

"This rabbit hairpin is quite cute." Hu Mengqian said as she picked up the hairpin that fell not far from the squid skewer.

"It seems to be stuck in the bangs of the girl who bumped into me just now," Xia Ling recalled, "It might have been knocked off by the bump just now."

"Look! That little ghost!" Xia Ling caught a glimpse of a pale little boy ghost, who was mischievously putting lit firecrackers into the hoodie of a man who was shopping.

"Stop!" Liang Jingyi rushed forward and tried to catch the little ghost, but he discovered him and ran away quickly.

"Stop!" Xia Ling and Hu Mengqian chased after him together, but the little ghost had already escaped without a trace.

"Damn it, we can't catch him," Xia Ling cursed, "The kid who was seen causing trouble these days must be that kid. I don't know where he came from."

"There seemed to be a witch wave over there just now," Liang Jingyi pointed at the Ferris wheel in the distance, "Let's go over and take a look."

"Okay!" Xia Ling and Hu Mengqian said in unison.
