The villainous magical girl's daily mission is to find fault.

Chapter 281 The Hong Kong Robbery: Preparation Phase

Legendary Mission: The Bank Robbery in Hong Kong

That evening, the familiar opened the secret manual and looked at the mission page.

The quest page displayed a line of gold and red text, followed by a fox mask pattern, as if to indicate that this was part of the Inari questline.

It seems that bank really was up to something! See, the secret manual was prepared all along!

[Preparation Phase]

[Task 1: Determine the solution, 0/1]

"In short, we need to find a way to get into the deep vault of the Hong Kong City Bank to look for clues related to the dog's background."

On the makeshift rooftop, Su Tianqing addressed the three people in front of her.

The cat girl sat silently to the side, the rabbit girl pinched her chin and thought hard, and only the little gray wolf nervously observed the people around him.

Fei Yelan felt that her understanding of Xin Yuehu seemed to be biased.

How could these three women agree on robbing a bank so quickly? Didn't they even hesitate for a moment?!

"I...I said, Fox."

Fenrir took a deep breath and spoke to the golden-haired fox girl in front of him.

"Are we really going to rob Hong Kong City Bank? Is there...isn't there any other way?"

"Isn't robbing a bank quite fun? And, Doggy, didn't you want to know about your origins? Why don't we just go and see what's written in that document?"

"But that's the Central Bank of Hong Kong! Do you know how heavily guarded that bank is?!" Fenrir said anxiously, even ignoring the subtle form of address he had just used.

"I investigated this matter beforehand after receiving Fox's message."

Contrary to his usual socially awkward self, the Cheshire Rabbit calmly stated,

"The Central Bank of Hong Kong is located in the northwest of Hong Kong. The building has 17 floors above ground and seven underground vaults that are 30 meters deep. Only the deepest floor is qualified to be used to store confidential documents."

"...and gold."

Hellcat added casually.

"The Central Bank of Hong Kong has reserves of more than 2000 tons of gold, all of which are stored in the deepest part of the vault."

Fenrir's expression of terror deepened.

Could it be that, besides the classified documents, these three people are also eyeing the gold?

"Hmm... Although I'm not interested in gold itself, I am very interested in the act of taking it along the way."

Su Tianqing said with a smile.

Isn't this what villains are supposed to do?

Enter the bank vault, search for confidential documents, investigate your companions' backgrounds, plunder all the gold, and then create a little trouble for the righteous magical girls who come to your aid.

"Is there any more information, Bunny?"

"Apart from these, there's nothing else... Oh, right, starting from the third floor, the vault has a defensive barrier set up by dozens of magical girls from all over the world, including Crimson Rose and Crimson Snow."

"I see. It seems this is the biggest problem." Su Tianqing frowned slightly and said in a low voice.

Fenrir breathed a sigh of relief.

"See? I told you this place is heavily guarded; there's no way the few of us could possibly..."

"So that means that once we break through these barriers, the path to the vault will be unobstructed, right?"

"Hello!!"

Fei Yelan felt a little tired.

But as Fei Yelan watched the three of them, Cat, Fox, and Rabbit, enthusiastically discussing how to break through the barrier, she inexplicably felt a sense of peace.

He had only mentioned it casually, yet they were so concerned about his background that they were even willing to take such a huge risk to find a way to break into the vault…

Looking at myself, I realized that I had always treated them with caution, which made me seem a bit too rude.

……

The discussion lasted for more than ten minutes.

Soon, the four-person team finalized several feasible plans:

Let me briefly explain the situation.

Xin Yuehu said, waving a magical light screen in front of him and writing a few lines of text.

"The first plan is [covert infiltration]."

"We need to find a way to get the access card to the barrier, then secretly infiltrate the Hong Kong City Bank and search for the vault password and lock pick in the offices."

"Next, use the access card to bypass the barrier, knock out the guards, destroy the cameras, disable the vault's defenses, open the door, and get what we need."

"Finally, we'll crawl into the trucks that are going in and out of the warehouse and leave quietly before the alarm goes off."

The process involved several steps, ultimately leading to a pattern resembling a document and several gold bars.

Hellcat was the first to express a negative opinion.

"I don't think it will work."

"First of all, none of us have any infiltration experience. Secondly, given our identities, there is absolutely no reason for us to have access to the office floors of Hong Kong City Bank."

"Then this plan is out! Let's move on to the next one!"

Fox casually waved the light screen, turning to a blank page.

"The second plan, [Deceive the heavens and cross the sea]."

"First, we need to disguise ourselves as the personnel responsible for entering and leaving the warehouse, find a way to get the key card, and then drive the delivery truck inside."

"Then, an outside support team launched a surprise attack on the bank's offices, forcing the bank to lock the vault access and prevent their reinforcements from entering the vault."

"Then, the people waiting outside the vault broke into the vault, took the documents and the gold, and drove away in a truck after the vault passage was reopened."

After that, Cheshire Rabbit offered a rebuttal.

"I don't think it will work."

"Oh? Bunny, do you have any insights?"

"...The barrier may not only block the passage, but there is a high possibility that it will also lock the vault door."

"Among us, only you, Fox, have enough magic power to break the barrier. Without you, Fox, it would be difficult for the few of us to stop so many magical girls."

"Even if everyone is unable to use magic right now, it will still be difficult for us to stop them."

Cheshire Rabbit unexpectedly displayed a clever side, which impressed Su Tianqing.

"Actually, I also think this plan is a bit unreliable, so let's go with the last one, which is also my favorite!"

At this point, Su Tianqing lifted both light screens together and presented the final plan.

"The final plan is to be aggressive!"

"Put on the heaviest armor we got from the arms dealers, grab the most powerful weapons, load them with explosives and grenades, find a suitable entrance, blast open the basement wall, and rush in!"

"Then use stun bullets to knock out all the guards, blow open the vault door with my specially made magic bomb, find the documents, loot the gold, and fight your way out the front door!"

"..."

The three of them fell silent.

Fei Yelan stared in disbelief, Nan Jiayu's eyes sharpened, and Xia Taotao smiled.

"...So, how are we going to escape?"

Nan Jiayu asked a question.

"Good question, but I was prepared!"

At this point, Su Tianqing casually waved her hand, opening the magic space and revealing a glimpse of the steel beast.

The gray and black checkered urban camouflage, the sturdy and thick heavy explosive reactive armor, and that 125mm mouth-loading smoothbore cannon—

"T-90M, Cat, the main battle tank you found on the cargo ship."

"Once we get the documents and the gold, we'll use this guy to get out of here!"
