Taku Furui saw the two people on the sidelines, greeted the coach, and ran over happily.
"How is it? Isn't the atmosphere in the baseball club super hot!" The sunny boy said with a cheerful smile.
Yuzumi Yu and Tateno Souta looked at each other.
"It's hot."
It refers to miniskirts.
Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the baseball club manager running over. The two of them looked at him. Furui Taku was stunned for a moment and turned back.
The hot miniskirt swayed gracefully as she ran, and the leggings waved to the three of them.
"Are these two your friends, Gujing-kun?" A very sweet girl.
"I'm a very good friend of mine. This is Yuzumi-kun and this is Tateno-kun."
"Nice to meet you two!" The girl bowed, then stood up and said with a warm smile, "I'm the baseball club manager, Izumitani Tomoka."
The two bowed in return.
"Hazumi-kun, do you want to join the baseball club? The baseball club welcomes you!"
"Come and see."
"You can try it out! You'll be able to make a better decision after experiencing it."
Furui Taku glanced at the miniskirt.
"No."
"I don't have to wear leggings!"
"Really? Then I'll definitely give priority to the baseball club."
"Hazumi-kun is really interesting..."
Rejecting the baseball club manager's enthusiasm, the two walked back.
"Hazumi, you even added the baseball manager's line!" Tateno Souta was indignant.
"Too enthusiastic." Yuzumi Yu said calmly as if he was reciting words.
"ah!!!"
Tateno Souta is going crazy.
The miserable cry attracted a lot of attention.
"Please keep your voice down."
...
Sota Tateno went to the kendo club, but Yuzumi Yu refused his invitation and walked towards the archery club's venue alone.
The current situation is that Minako Hashimoto is very generous, while Kyoko Gono is very stingy.
I don't know what's going on with that senior Ikema.
If you don't work hard and I don't work hard, when will the emotional value reach 1000?
Yuzumi Yu's requirements are not high, just raise the intelligence to A.
The Kyudo Club has a dedicated activity area, which is located in the row of quaint houses on the edge of the school.
The training ground is a semi-open wooden house connected to the shooting range outside, so you can shoot arrows directly from the wooden house.
Yuzumi Yu stopped at the fence at the edge of the shooting range, and there were many students around who were also visiting.
He scanned the area and quickly locked onto Maki Ikema.
She wore a white top, a riding hakama that went from the waist to the ankles, and small white socks.
Little white socks…so cute.
if...
etc!
Yuzumi Yu quickly stopped the thought.
It's all because Tateno Kanata always recommends movies to him.
Different from the senior with long hair in the corridor with a proud look on her face, the senior sister Ikema is now kneeling on the ground in a standard posture, with her long hair tied up into a bun, revealing her snow-white neck.
His peach blossom eyes were still indifferent, but his expression was less arrogant and more aloof, revealing his seriousness about Kyudo.
A round of archery is over.
Another round ends.
Senior Ikema and several female members stood up and walked to the edge of the house. The others knelt sideways with their hands on their hips, while Senior Gao Leng stood sideways with her legs slightly wider than her shoulders.
She breathed calmly, her delicate little face full of concentration, and her posture was very standard. She held the bow, which was as tall as a man, above her head, then slowly lowered it to draw the bow.
The concept of guaranteed hit if you shoot straight - emphasizes correct action rather than simply aiming, believing that as long as the posture is correct, the arrow will naturally hit the bull's eye.
Yuzumi Yu carried a bag on one shoulder, put his hands in his pockets, and watched his senior shoot arrows with an expressionless face.
'It's a little off, what a pity.'
"Bang!"
The sound of the arrow leaving the bowstring was drowned out by the sound of it hitting the target.
Yuzumi Yu looked at the target.
Sure enough, the arrow landed a little bit away from the center, but it hit the center of the target, just not with no deviation at all.
Very strong.
——Recognition from Wu MAX.
Ikema-senpai saluted and stepped back from her shooting position, and a neat but brief applause from the Kyudo Club echoed behind her.
If cheering wasn't forbidden, Yuzumi Yu would definitely shout "Ikema-senpai, you're awesome!"
There are so many rules in the Kyudo club.
This is just a joke in my heart, I won't say it out loud, but I still have to show respect on the surface.
"This can't be brushed off."
Sighing inwardly, Yuzumi Yu turned and left.
Let's go back and find Minako to brush it.
Maki Ikema glanced at Yuzumi Yu's departing back, then looked away expressionlessly.
Not only her, in fact many girls have noticed it.
After all, it is hard not to notice such a handsome guy, not to mention his cold temperament that is not like a student at all, which is too conspicuous.
If someone were to call him cold to his face, Yuzumi Yu might retort.
He is not indifferent, but apathetic. It's just that he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, which has given him a sharp look in his eyes, so he looks rather cold.
Passing by a vending machine, Yuzumi Yu bought a bottle of soda and drank it while walking all the way home.
"I'm back." Yuzumi Yu said after opening the door.
While changing shoes, a head popped up from the kitchen: "Boy, didn't you join the club?"
"I don't want to add it."
Yuzumi Yu changed his shoes and walked inside.
Tomoya Hanzumi, wearing an apron, wiped his hands and walked out of the kitchen: "I won't allow you to work part-time, kid."
"Actually, I've always wanted to do part-time work at a convenience store." Yuzumi Yu poured himself a glass of water.
"Not allowed!" Tomoya Hanzumi shouted with full force.
Then he added, "Since you're not going to the club, come back after class and help out at the martial arts gym!"
Yuzumi Yu finished drinking the water and put down the cup, looking serious: "I will go to the club."
The martial arts school is even more boring than the club.
Going to the martial arts gym is like going to the novice village with a max-level account. You don't know what to do and can only sit there and watch boring "playing house".
If the family martial arts gym needed help, he would go, but it was obviously not needed now.
Tomoya Hanzumi went into the kitchen to tinker again.
"Minako will come to our house for dinner this week." A voice came from the kitchen.
Yuzumi Yu paused on his way to the sofa, turned around and said, "You already said that yesterday."
"when?"
"When I get home in the evening."
"Then I'll say it again." Hanzumi Tomoya repeated what he said yesterday, "Her parents are out playing, so no one will be home this week. They will all come to our house for dinner..."
"Got it. Please don't repeat it tomorrow."
Yuu Hazumi was reading in the living room, while Tomoya Hazumi was tinkering in the kitchen.
It seems that this week's meals will become more sumptuous with Minako's joining.
It was six o'clock in the afternoon, and seeing that Minako had not arrived yet, Yuzumi Yu put down the book and sent her a message.
As soon as the message was sent, the doorbell rang.
Yuzumi Yu went out to pick up Minako, and the two came back and changed shoes together at the shoe cabinet.
Minako took off her school shoes, revealing her small feet wrapped in white over-the-knee socks. Her toes were half transparent, and the redness could be vaguely seen.
...little white socks.
cute.
if...
etc.
It's all Tateno Souta's fault!
Before they had even finished changing their shoes, a kind voice came from the kitchen.
"Minako is here!"
"Dinner will be later!"
It can be seen that Tomoya Hanzumi likes this cute kid next door very much.
"You sit down first." Yuzumi Yu led Minako to the sofa, then went to pour water himself.
He handed the water to Minako, and the girl took it with a smile.
"Thank you, Brother Yuzumi."
Well...that's so sweet.
But he didn't forget his business.
"Minako is cute today too." Yuzumi Yu said gently.
Minako is happy——2
After a chat, the emotional value increased by about 20. Yuzumi Yu felt that it was not good enough, so he suggested going to the backyard to practice.
Minako has a solid foundation. When Yuzumi Yu was practicing martial arts as a child, she often came to ask for help.
The two men stood in the backyard holding bamboo swords.
After a salute, Yuzumi Yu said, "No need to shout, just hit it casually."
"Okay." Minako nodded seriously, "I'm coming."
"Bang!"
The bamboo sword struck the back of the girl's hand.
"Too slow, concentrating."
"Bang!"
The bamboo sword hit the girl on the head.
"Too fast, too many holes."
[Minako's grievances——5]
"Bang!"
The bamboo sword hit the girl's face, and her fair cheeks turned red.
——It's not a matter of being shy.
[Minako is upset and wants to cry——31]
Yuzumi Yu's expression turned serious.
Minako is so nice!
"Come again!" the girl shouted.
This time, the girl's eyes were extremely focused. She held the sword in both hands and stared at the boy who was holding the sword in one hand not far away.
The wind gently blew the young man's hair on his eyebrows, and his handsome face was smiling.
The sound of breaking air!
The bamboo sword made a crisp sound of breaking through the air!
"take!"
The two swords met in the air.
While Minako retreated, she used all her strength to move forward again!
"Bang!"
Last time it was the left cheek, this time it was the right cheek.
It looks better when both cheeks are red.
[Minako is angry and wants to cry——63]
"Come again!!!" The girl was not convinced, or rather angry.
"Bang!"
Yuzumi Yu's cheeks also turned red.
Minako's bamboo sword smacked the boy in the face.
[Minako jumps for joy——32]
...
Dinner time.
[Emotion: 281 (Hashimoto Minako, Gono Kyoko, Ikema Maki)]
"Why are your two faces so red?" Tomoya Hanezumi looked suspicious and his eyes swept back and forth between the two of them.
"Brother Yuzumi bullied me..." Minako's voice seemed to be filled with tears.
"Yazumi!!!" a middle-aged man roared.
Yuzumi You sprinted a hundred meters, ran out of the house and into the backyard. Soon, a handsome middle-aged man in an apron jumped out from the house behind him - holding a belt.
'For the mood value!'
"For the sake of evolution!"
'To add some wisdom!'
Yuzumi Yu was very determined.
The father and son chased each other in the backyard. Yu Yu climbed up the tree in the backyard, and Tomoya Yu took the bow and arrow from the rack in the distance.
The boy jumped down again, and the man put down his bow and arrow again.
Standing under the eaves, Minako watched the father and son chasing each other in the backyard, covering her mouth with her hands and laughing softly, her eyes full of joy.
"Let's have a real man's duel!" Yuzumi Yu picked up the bamboo sword on the ground and turned to face his father.
"You're asking for a beating!"
Tired of playing and making enough noise, Yuzumi Yu was given a few symbolic slaps and started to limp.
Minako supported him and chuckled, "Does it hurt?"
"I will never talk to you again, Minako Hashimoto." Yuzumi Yu was ruthless.
Minako finds it funny—6
"You're wrong, Yuzumi-nii~" the girl tried her best not to laugh, "Besides, you were the one who bullied me first!"
"I'm training you, idiot!"
"You're just bullying me, idiot!"
"Asshole! How dare you talk to your brother like that!"
Minako stepped down.
"Hiss..." Yuzumi Yu took a breath - it didn't hurt.
It's actually kind of refreshing.
Wait, that's not fun either.
Never awaken any strange attributes.
Tomoya Hanzumi was serving dishes in the kitchen, smiling at the two people in the backyard.
"Come to dinner!" he shouted.
[Emotion: 331 (Minako Hashimoto, Kyoko Gono, Maki Ikema)]
At the dining table, Yuzumi Yu looked at the final emotion value.
Minako was his major shareholder, so he approved of it.
The dishes on the table were rich, but they were also home-cooked dishes, showing respect without being distant.
Tomoya Hanzumi is a very good person.
——Recognition from my son.
"Where's my aunt?" Minako blinked her big eyes.
Well...cute.
"Aunt Yoko has something urgent to do, so we just need to eat." Tomoya Hanzumi said gently.
"I'm starting!" The girl clasped her hands together to express her gratitude.
"I'm starting too." Yuzumi Yu said in a serious manner.
The time spent cooking is very happy. If Tomoya Hanzumi had not opened a martial arts school, he might have become an excellent chef.
Yuzumi Yu kept using the serving chopsticks to pick up food for Minako.
It's not that he's afraid of the other party being polite, but she is a girl after all, and she might be shy. He won't be stingy if he can take care of her.
The three of them chatted about school and occasionally about the martial arts school.
Seeing that the drink in Minako's cup was almost empty, Yuzumi Yu stood up and poured her another one.
"Half is fine." The girl whispered.
"Is Minako in a relationship?" A "greasy" question from a middle-aged man.
"No, I have to study hard!"
"That's right. I never allow your brother Yuzhu to fall in love. Now is the time for him to strive hard." The middle-aged man was giving instructions.
Yuzumi Yu glanced at Yuzumi Tomoya.
Who asked me to bring my girlfriend back yesterday?
Minako's cheeks flushed slightly as she picked up the water glass and took a small sip.
"But! He is still in love!" The subject suddenly changed.
Yuzumi Yu was a little speechless.
"Crack..." There seemed to be a sound of breaking.
The father and son looked in the direction he was looking.
The glass in Minako's hand shattered with a "bang" and the drink inside spilled out.
Yes, crushed.
The father and son's eyes were stunned for a moment.
Then he looked up.
Minako's face, which had been rosy just now, had turned pale, and her eyes were empty. Even after the cup was crushed, she didn't react and just remained in that position blankly.
The broken glass pierced the girl's white and tender palm, and blood flowed down her wrist.
"Hazumi!" Tomoya Hanazumi shouted.
Yuzumi Yu quickly stood up, walked around the table, spread out the girl's hand, and removed the glass shards.
Looking at Minako's palm which was deeply pierced by glass fragments, he felt a little distressed and frowned, but the girl still looked dazed.
"What are you doing?" He squatted down so that the girl could see him, and his concerned tone was inevitably tinged with blame.
"Brother Yuzumi..." Minako murmured softly. She seemed to come back to her senses after seeing Yuzumi Yu. Then, her eyes became wet and tears fell down without any hesitation.
Yuzumi Yu looked back and saw that Yuzumi Tomoya had disappeared.
He stood up, gently took the broken girl into his arms, and patted her gently with his hands.
Just like when I was a kid.
"Brother Yuzumi..." The girl raised her head, her eyes full of tears. Yuzumi Yu felt that she could no longer see clearly.
Minako's heartbreak—666
[Emotion: 997 (Minako Hashimoto, Kyoko Gono, Maki Ikema)]
What's wrong?" Yuzumi Yu forced a smile, wiped away the tears on the girl's cheeks, and said softly, "Is someone bullying you? Tell me, and I'll beat him up."
"No..." The girl's voice was muffled. She wanted to put her arms around the boy's waist, but her wrist was grabbed by Yuzumi Yu.
"Don't move."
The boy left, and Minako lowered her head quietly. After a while, Yuzumi Yu came back with a medical kit.
He squatted down to treat the girl's wound. He didn't hear any sound from her and could only ask, "Does it hurt?"
Although he thought it was nonsense.
"It hurts." Minako said weakly.
"Why don't you tell me it hurts?" Yuzumi Yu said unhappily, using tweezers to gently pick out the glass debris embedded in the girl's palm.
"It won't hurt anymore if I tell you."
"I told you I'd be gentle."
When they finally finished treating the wound and were about to apply medicine, Minako's weak voice was heard again.
"Hazumi-nii."
"Hmm?" Yuzumi Yu was looking at the label on the medicine bottle.
"Is your sister in the same school as you?"
Yuzumi Yu unscrewed the medicine bottle, took the cotton swab, and said unhappily: "I, your brother, am not in a relationship. Don't you know what kind of person my father is? He has no advantages except being handsome."
Minako seemed to chuckle.
Minako is alive——99
After holding the girl's hand and looking at it for a while, Yuzumi Yu said, "It's nothing serious, just a superficial wound."
He was often injured when he was a child, so he was already familiar with it and could tell at a glance whether it was a serious injury or not.
After bandaging the wound and putting away the medicine, he stood up and slapped the victim.
"Ah." Minako cried out in pain.
The girl covered her head with her intact hand and looked at Yuzumi You with a look of aggrieved eyes.
"There's no point in being cute." Yuzumi Yu said sternly, showing the authority of a brother, "If you do this again next time, I'll beat your butt to pieces."
The girl kicked him.
Tearing off a few pieces of paper, Yuzumi Yu wiped Minako's body casually.
Well...if it can't be wiped clean, you still have to wash it, but you just need to wipe away the remaining drink.
"Are you full?" He threw the paper into the trash can.
"Um."
"Let's go back and change our clothes."
"Where's my uncle?" Minako looked around.
"Don't worry about him."
Yuzumi Yuu accompanied Minako back to her house, and after the girl finished taking a bath, the two of them read and studied in the living room.
Yuzumi Yu didn't leave until evening.
I have to say that Minako is really hardworking. Sometimes Yuzumi Yu gets tired of watching, but she is still concentrating on studying.
At first glance, you can tell that he is a good student with excellent character and academic performance in school.
Yuzumi Yu was very relieved.
After returning home, Tomoya Hanzumi was watching TV in the living room. When he saw his son come back, he didn't ask anything.
Yuzumi Yuya said nothing.
Some kind of tacit understanding between father and son?
Just like Tomoya Hanzumi, although he is sometimes really unreliable, when he is serious, Yu Hanzumi does not doubt his ability.
Tomoya Hanzumi also believes that Yu Hanzumi can handle it.
After taking a shower and returning to the room, Yuzumi Yu checked the sword under the bed.
Good, it wasn't stolen.
Open the true eye.
Very good, and it was not replaced.
It's too stupid. It would be better if he could summon this sword directly.
[Emotion: 1211 (Minako Hashimoto, Kyoko Gono, Maki Ikema)]
Lying in bed, he looked at the panel.
Is the emotional value already so high?
Minako, I love you so much!
Want to do something whimsical?
"System, after the event occurs, is it mandatory to complete it?"
[Not mandatory]
That's good.
It doesn't matter even if you get naked.
[The previous whimsical event was not completed, and the mood value for the next whimsical event needs to be increased tenfold]
Yuzumi Yuu had a blank expression on his face.
In other words, if it is not completed, 10,000 emotion points will be required to start the event again?
[yes]
If two in a row are not completed, the third one will be one hundred thousand?
[yes]
'...'
It's still a bit uncomfortable to be naked.
How about a whimsical event?
How come it's just like opening a blind box?
Um...
After some thought, Yuzumi Yu decided to give himself a day off.
Let's talk about it tomorrow.
I don't want to remove the spirit tonight.
You should relax in moderation. Always pushing yourself will backfire.
I had a very comfortable sleep.
Early in the morning, I got up for morning exercise, ran, ate breakfast, packed my lunch box, and went out to meet Minako.
He gave the other a portion of the lunch box in his hand, and the two walked along the street together, parting at the intersection.
The girl continued to stare until Yuzumi Yu disappeared around the corner.
"Big sister, those guys from yesterday are looking for someone." A girl's voice came from the side.
"No matter how many people come, she will beat them down." Minako Hashimoto turned around with a gloomy face. She wanted to make a fist, but found that her hand was in great pain.
"Big sister, your hand..." The girl next to her was shocked.
"It's okay, just a minor injury."
Two girls were walking on the street.
"Which school are you looking for?" Minako asked coldly, "Which school dares to mess with Meiping?"
"Double water." The girl looked solemn.
"Shuangshui?" Minako was puzzled, as if searching for the school in her mind. After a moment, she asked in surprise, "Shuangshui High School?"
"right!"
"...High school boys are here to bully people." Minako looked unhappy.
"Big sister, let me go and apologize." The girl looked like she was ready to give it a try.
Minako kept a sullen face and said nothing until they reached the gate of Meiping Girls' Junior High School, where two boys wearing the uniform of Shuangshui High School blocked their way.
"It's them!" The girl following behind the two boys pointed at Minako and the other girl.
The girl next to Minako took a step forward, blocking the injured Minako, and said through gritted teeth: "You bastard, if you can't beat them, call for help."
The two boys with their hands in their pockets and the girl laughed disdainfully, their smiles full of mockery.
Shuangshui University is a university famous for fighting. In the eyes of Shuangshui, other schools are garbage.
"School is over this afternoon at 5:30." The taller boy leaned forward, a teasing smile on his face, "Little sisters, please call more people."
"Haha..." After saying that, he laughed wildly.
"Don't go back to your mother if you keep crying." Another shorter boy also laughed.
"Such a pretty face, getting cut, it's really heartbreaking." The tall boy put his hands in his pockets and said with a lewd look on his face, "Why don't you be my girlfriend, then..."
Minako's face was gloomy, and suddenly, she moved.
She took a step forward and kicked the boy, who screamed. The boy who had teased her covered his crotch and fell to the ground with a distorted face.
The other two's expressions changed.
"Asshole!" The shorter boy stepped forward with his fists clenched.
"ah!"
He also fell to the ground, holding his crotch.
"Bring more people, you losers."
Minako and the other person left without looking back, leaving the frightened girl standing there.
The girl had only one thought.
——Beat the people from Shuangshui High School.
Minako Hashimoto and Megumi Motobayashi are crazy?!
Would you like to pick up Minako after school..."
During class, Yuzumi Yu was listening to the lecture while thinking divergently.
After Minako "self-harmed" yesterday, he was actually very angry. She must not hurt her body in any way. Although he knew that the other party did not mean it, this kind of unintentional behavior is actually very scary.
If she felt the pain, she should have let go, but she still looked dazed, as if it wasn't her hand that was pricked.
Yuzumi Yu was a little worried about Minako and thought, forget it, I'll just pick her up after school and make her happy these few days.
But...Minako is too strong.
Even the hard glass cup was crushed by it.
When the glass shattered, both Yuu Hanzumi and Tomoya Hanzumi were stunned, and their brains seemed to go blank for a moment.
It was as shocking as a child punching a wall.
It's so scary.
People like Tateno Souta and Furui Taku can definitely not break a glass. Compared with Minako, they are more like delicate girls.
At the end of the get out of class, Wu Ye, who was sitting at the front desk, handed over his notes again.
Yuzumi Yuichi sighed, "Thank you."
[Kyoko Gono finds it interesting——2]
stingy and searchy.
Once the money is returned, he will no longer play this boring game of house with the other party.
A piece of paper was handed to me.
It was handed to me by a boy.
"Please, Hanezumi-kun, make sure to attend the sports festival, please!" The boy bowed.
"Just fill it out as you see fit."
"Huh? Is it really possible?" Xin Shisi from the Sports Committee looked surprised.
"Then let me do it." Yuzumi Yu took the paper and was about to fill in his name on the sports event when he heard Gono-san's unique and pleasant voice.
"He is deaf."
Yuzumi Yu looked up, and Shinseki was a little confused.
Gono Kyoko had turned around at some point, and she repeated, "Hazumi-kun is deaf, he can't hear you, you have to write to him."
Hazumi Yu and Shinshiji: "..."
"That's enough..." Before Yuzumi Yu could finish his words, a white and tender little hand was spread out in front of him.
Shut up instantly.
Xin Shisi looked at the boys on the left, then at the girls on the right, and finally gave an awkward smile.
He took the registration form and said with an awkward smile, "Excuse me, I'll fill it out for you, Yuzumi-san. Thank you."
"He can't hear, you have to write it to him." Kyoko Gono insisted, looking at the sports committee member.
The elegant appearance and expressionless little face brought such an oppressive feeling that Xin Shisi almost broke out in sweat on his forehead.
"Don't pay attention to her, just go first." Yuzumi Yu gave the other party a chance to leave.
Xinshisi immediately bowed in gratitude and walked away quickly.
"Give me back the money." The girl stretched her hand forward again, almost poking the school uniform on Yuzumi Yu's chest.
Yuzumi Yu felt in his pocket, took it out, and placed it in the girl's palm, which looked pampered.
Kyoko Gono looked over without moving her head.
What the other person put in her hand was a lollipop, the kind that costs 120 yen each at a convenience store on the street.
[Gono Kyoko finds it interesting——5]
The girl tore open the package and put it in her mouth.
After sucking it for a few seconds, she took it out again, held the candy stick, and passed it to Yuzumi Yu's mouth: "I don't like this taste."
Yuzumi Yu tilted his head back to avoid the saliva-covered lollipop from touching his lips.
"I don't like it either," he said.
The girl frowned: "Then why did you buy it?"
"I didn't intend to give it to you, but you asked me to pay it back. This is the most valuable thing on my body." Yuzumi Yu's head was still tilted back.
He lied. The most valuable thing he had was the money in his pocket.
"Who are you going to give it to?" The girl's pretty brows seemed to deepen.
"Ikema-senpai from the Kyudo Club."
[Kyoko Gono finds it interesting——7]
"Do you like her?" Kyoko Gono seemed to smile.
"I want to stimulate her." This time Yuzumi Yu did not lie.
[Kyoko Gono found it interesting——10]
"How about giving her the lollipop she used to suck on?" Kyoko Gono smiled with a hint of mischief, unfolded the candy wrapper in her hand that she had not thrown away yet, and put the lollipop in it.
"That's too rude." Yuzumi Yuu turned back.
"Don't you want to stimulate her?" Kyoko Gono looked at her masterpiece - the lollipop that had been sucked and wrapped in candy paper, with a satisfied expression.
"But I don't want to get beaten."
"You can't beat her?"
"I'm a newbie." Yuzumi Yu was a little speechless.
Is this a question of whether or not you can win?
Gono Kyoko seemed to be really thinking about it. After a while, she said, "I will help you."
Hazumi Yu: "..."
He snatched the lollipop from the girl's hand: "Don't waste my lollipop if you don't want to eat it."
Gono Kyoko was unhappy, her face became stern, and her elegant appearance looked very cold: "You gave it to me."
"I'm paying off a debt."
"Pay back the money." The hand extended again.
"It's time for class." Yuzumi Yu reminded.
"Pay back the money."
"Here, here." Yuzumi Yu handed over the lollipop, but the girl snatched it away.
"I'll give you 120 yen off." The girl said it with both zeros and whole numbers.
"grateful."
[Emotion: 1244 (Hashimoto Minako, Gono Kyoko, Ikema Maki)]
Take a lunch break at noon.
Yuzumi Yu and his friends were sitting in the stairwell eating their bento.
"Do you know which class Ikema-senpai is in?" Yuzumi Yu took a bite of rice.
The two people who were talking about the sports festival immediately stopped talking and looked at the handsome boy.
"Yazumi, are you going to feel the other person's trash-looking look again?" asked Furui Taku.
"It feels great." Yuzumi Yu said lightly.
Furui Taku and Tateno Souta smiled.
"It's really cool."
Hazumi Yu: "..."
"So, which class is Ikema-senpai in?" he asked.
"Hmm..." Tateno Souta recalled, a little uncertainly, "I think he was in Class 3 or Class 2, a second-year student."
"Class 2." Furui Taku insisted.
"grateful."
"Hehehe..." The other two laughed in a frivolous way.
"You two are affecting my appetite." Yuzumi Yu said expressionlessly.
"But Yuzumi, seriously, why are you going to look for her?" Taku Furui took a piece of meat from Tateno Souta's lunch box and received an angry look from the other party.
"See if senior is generous." Yuzumi Yu felt that he couldn't always grab Minako and pull her.
"?" Taku Furui and Souta Tateno both looked puzzled.
Although he didn't understand, Furui Taku still reminded her: "Ikema-senpai has a bad temper, don't provoke her."
"Please tell me, please." Yuzumi Yu asked humbly.
These two people are simply know-it-alls when it comes to beautiful girls. Yuzumi Yu is a freshman just like them and has been in school for less than a month, but these two people know all the beautiful girls and can even understand their personalities.
Taku Furui sat closer to Yu Zhuyou and looked around the stairwell in a very "sunny" manner.
Tateno Souta also hurriedly took his lunch box and squatted in front of the two of them, looking like he was listening.
"Ahem." Furui Taku cleared his throat and said in a low voice, "Before..."
Before, a senior student confessed his love to her." Furui Taku paused as if to keep someone in suspense.
The other two waited for almost a minute, but he still didn't say anything. Tateno Kanata couldn't help but give the sunny boy a slap on the head: "Tell me, what happened back there?"
"Aren't I waiting for you to ask?" Taku Furui unhappily fixed his messed-up hair—it wasn't much of a hairstyle, just an ordinary messy bun.
The other two quickly took the lunch boxes away.
"Stop messing with your hair, it's snowing!" Tateno Kanata said dissatisfiedly.
"I agree." Yuzumi Yu agreed expressionlessly.
Furui Taku straightened his hair and continued, "And then that senior was rejected."
"Go on." Yuzumi Yu was very smart.
"The next day, the senior came to confess his love again."
"Go on." Tateno Souta is also very smart.
"Then the senior sister made a condition."
Yuzumi Yu and Tateno Kanata blinked, waiting for what was to come.
After a few seconds, Yuzumi Yu put down the lunch box expressionlessly, stood up, and stretched his wrists.
"Hey, hey, hey, sit down, sit down and listen to me continue." Furui Taku quickly pulled Yuzumi Yu's clothes.
They have been playing together since high school, and although they don't know anything else, they both know Yuzumi Yu's combat power very well.
After Yuzumi Yu sat down, Furui Taku continued, "Senior said that as long as you can catch her three arrows, she will consider it."
"Just considering it, not agreeing?" Tateno Kanata frowned.
"I'm just thinking about it, don't interrupt me." Furui Taku continued, "How did you connect these three arrows? It was at the Kyudo Club field. The senior held the target on his head, and the senior shot the arrow at the target."
When Tateno Souta heard this, he stared at the sunny boy with a look of suspicion.
Yuzumi Yuya felt that this was a bit outrageous.
"I also thought it was outrageous when I heard it." Furui Taku could understand how the two of them felt now.
"But it's true." He shrugged helplessly.
"Will the teacher in the Kyudo club agree?" Tateno Souta still didn't believe it.
If something goes wrong with this kind of behavior, it could cost a life. There's no way the school would agree to it.
"I definitely wouldn't agree," Gu Jing said. "No one was there at the time. All the teachers and students were away. It was a sealed venue."
"The senior student came out later and told his friend, and then his friend spread it."
"Go on, go on." Tateno Souta waited for the follow-up.
"The situation is that the senior was very courageous and actually stood under the target. Then the senior's first arrow missed the target and went downwards."
Yuzumi Yu had a blank expression on his face, and Tateno Kanata took a deep breath.
"Hehe, it hit here." Taku Furui looked at the lower body of the squatting Kanata Tateno.
Yuzumi Yu looked over and saw Tateno Kanata lowering his head and instantly clamping his legs together.
"Senior, you're so pitiful." Yuzumi Yu ate broccoli with an expressionless face.
"It didn't hit him, but it did hit him. It went through his pants and the arrow pierced his inner thigh."
"After this matter became known, each person was punished, but it was not made public." Taku Furui finished.
"He didn't get fired, so he has a strong background," Yuzumi Yu commented.
"Where's the second arrow?" Tateno Souta continued to ask.
"There's no second arrow. Senior peed himself on the first arrow."
Tateno Souta suddenly turned to look at the handsome young man who had been calm all along: "Hazumi, you must remember that you are an only child."
"I won't let her hold the bow. If anyone wants to shoot, I'll be the one to shoot her." Yuzumi Yu said lightly.
Although he had previously rated the other party's kyudo as very strong, he still had a new understanding of the arrogance of Senior Sister Ikema because she dared to be so arrogant.
No one can guarantee that they are 100% impartial.
Neither can Yuu Hazumi.
He can only guarantee a 99.9999% chance of being correct.
There are many factors that affect the landing point of the arrow, including wind, weight of the arrow, elasticity of the bow, steady breathing, timing of release, etc.
Of course, none of this matters, Yuzumi Yu can judge the landing point based on his intuition.
But considering Senior Ikema's level, she dared to do this. Should he say that she was confident or stupid?
Not hearing the other two people talking, Yuzumi Yu looked over and saw Tateno and Furui staring at him with strange eyes.
"What's wrong?" he asked puzzled.
"Yuzumi, your words are very profound." The sunny boy's understanding is very sunny.
"Hehe." Tateno Kanata suddenly laughed, very obscenely.
Hazumi Yu: "..."
He patted Furui Taku's shoulder and stood up to go back to the classroom.
"Don't watch too many movies recommended by that guy Souta." After saying that, he left.
"Teacher Rikka!!!" Tateno Kanata suddenly wailed.
Yuzumi Yu's pace of leaving quickened.
"Souta! Stop going crazy here!" Taku Furui's shameful voice sounded behind him.
After class in the afternoon.
15:30.
Yuzumi Yu picked up his bag, stood up and ran out of the classroom.
Tateno Souta looked at his hurried back and muttered softly.
"You're really going..."
Passing by the students who kept coming out of the classroom, Yuzumi Yu came to the second grade floor, looking for Class 2's classroom.
No, don't look for it.
Ikema-senpai has already left the classroom.
He ran over.
His figure attracted a lot of people's attention. His handsome appearance and the light blue tie representing the first grade made people take a second look.
Generally speaking, lower grade students will not come to the upper grade floors.
It's not that I can't come, it's that I don't dare to come.
The hierarchical concept of Mihong society is particularly prominent on campus, whether it is junior high school, high school, or private school.
In terms of spoken language, honorifics should be used when addressing senior students. In terms of behavior, for example, in the corridor, junior students should take the initiative to give way to senior students to show respect and awe for their predecessors.
This is more obvious in clubs, and the most serious ones are wind instruments, kendo, and archery clubs, where senior students have absolute say, organizational power, and leadership power.
In summary, the authority of seniors cannot be challenged.
If you rush towards a senior, you will not only offend that senior, but also all the other seniors.
So, giving a sucked lollipop to Ikema-senpai is simply impossible!
"Senior Ikema!" Yuzumi Yu came to the senior and bowed.
"What a handsome junior..." A girl next to Senior Ikema covered her mouth and sighed softly.
Ikema Maki frowned.
Yuzumi Yu took out the strawberry milk he had prepared long ago and handed it over with both hands, bowing slightly and saying, "Senior Ikema, your arrow shot in the Kyudo Club yesterday was amazing. This is a gift from me, please accept it!"
Ikema Maki's brows relaxed.
"Thank you." The senior said and passed by Yuzumi Yu.
[Ikema Maki's little pride——1]
Even stingier than Kyoko Gono?
The girl who had been following Ikema-senpai before looked at Yuzumi Yuu twice more before catching up.
The two girls were walking in the corridor. She lowered her voice and said with a smile, "Your archery skills have conquered another handsome junior."
Maki Ikema didn't say anything, her brows were full of coldness.
Yuzumi You stood up and looked at the backs of the two seniors as they left, thinking about something.
If you kick the other person now, he will definitely be very generous.
well.
Are there no babies with sensitive constitutions?
There are risks associated with acquiring strong emotions, and Yuzumi Yuu hasn't forgotten that.
If you want to gain more emotional value, you still have to bring big enough emotional fluctuations to the other person.
Just like Minako, he can only cause big emotional fluctuations to the other person if they are very familiar with each other. But now he and the senior are just two strangers, so there is no way that there can be big fluctuations.
But he just wanted to give it a try.
What if I get rich overnight? Well... adolescent boys all love to fantasize.
After putting away the strawberry milk, Yuzumi Yu turned and left, and would give it to Minako when he went to pick her up later.
——I originally bought it for Minako.
Otherwise he wouldn't have chosen strawberry milk.
After returning home, Yuzumi Yu started studying and didn't go out until Minako was about to finish school.
Minako is not like him who doesn't participate in club activities.
In fact, he didn't participate in club activities because he wanted to go out to work to pay back his debts, but he hasn't found a job yet.
Really go to the convenience store?
Yuzumi Yu came to the entrance of Meiping Girls' High School with strawberry milk.
He looked at the time, it was exactly half past five. He leaned against the telephone pole, looking at the school gate, looking for Minako who was coming out of school.
A handsome boy wearing the Senbazuru Private School uniform attracted the attention of many students at the gate of the girls' high school.
Yuzumi Yu stood for a while, but couldn't stand anymore.
Why did he feel that the eyes of these female students were shining when they looked at him?
So scary.
'That's what girls' schools are like.'
Yuzumi Yu could only understand it this way.
"Hello, senior, are you Hashimoto's brother?" A girl came up to him and asked.
Yuzumi Yu looked at it and had no impression at all.
"I am Minako's brother." Yuzumi Yu responded while confirming.
"I was told that you look very familiar, senior." The girl said with a smile.
Really...why doesn't he have any impression?
"Are you waiting for Hashimoto-san? She left the club earlier." The girl said again.
Yuzumi Yu was stunned for a moment, then looked at the time again: "Doesn't the club activity end at 5:30?"
"Yes, well..." the girl hesitated and said, "But she ran away secretly."
Yuzumi Yuu had a blank expression on his face.
"Excuse me, where did she go?" He tried his best to keep his voice from sounding cold.
The girl's voice was a little weak: "Hmm... From what I heard from them, it seemed like they were talking about going to that alley over there."
She pointed in a direction and Yuzumi Yu looked in the direction.
A deep alley next to the school.
"Thank you." He walked over expressionlessly.
The anxious voice of a girl came from behind: "Please don't tell Hashimoto-san that I leaked it."
Yuzumi Yu turned half sideways and saw the girl bowing.
"Okay, thank you."
He walked towards the alley.
Why would a little girl not stay in the club and leave early to play in the alley?
After thinking for a while, Yuzumi Yu could only come up with one answer.
——Having a secret meeting with your boyfriend?
He now has a very cold aura, and there is no warmth between his handsome brows.
Yuzumi Yu wanted to see who Minako's boyfriend was, because he had kidnapped his lovely sister.
The alley is full of old houses with little space, and the electric poles are covered with messy wires.
This has something to do with Meiping's location. There wouldn't be such an environment in Qianbazuru.
Going deeper inside, I could vaguely hear some sounds, but I couldn't make them out clearly.
Then there were faint sounds of fighting.
Yuzumi Yuu frowned and quickened his pace.
By the time he turned the corner and saw Minako and her group, the fight was over.
Minako stood in the middle of the alley with her back to him. On both sides of her were boys lying on the ground holding their crotches. There were also a few boys who looked like "big brothers" standing not far away.
The school uniform of Shuangshui High School?
The scene was a little beyond Yuzumi Yu's expectations, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
He raised his foot and tried to walk over. The Shuangshui brothers in the distance saw him and immediately yelled, "Hey, that kid, get out of the way."
"Get out of here, or I'll beat you up too!" another big brother said.
Yuzumi Yu stopped, expressionless, with his hands in his pockets, and stood not far behind Minako.
The alley was deserted, with no one else there except them.
The wind blew the hem of Minako's school uniform as she walked towards the older brothers.
The Shuangshui brothers also had their hands in their pockets, but their smiles were ferocious. They withdrew their gaze from Yuzumi Yu and looked at Minako.
"Stinky..." Just as a big brother raised his foot to move forward, Yuzumi You's faint voice rang out.
"Minako."
Several older brothers looked at Yuzumi You again.
Minako seemed to tremble all over and stopped walking.
The wind is blowing.
The girl's skirt is moving.
Time seemed to pause at this moment, one second, two seconds, three seconds.
Minako suddenly turned around, her cold and beautiful face looked bitter and aggrieved, with tears in her eyes.
"Brother Yuzumi..." The girl wiped her eyes and trotted over.
Yuzumi Yuxin's heart softened immediately. She caught Minako in her arms and looked down at her little face which looked extremely aggrieved.
"What's wrong?" He said softly.
"Brother Yuzumi, they bullied me..." The girl cried even more sadly, burying her head in the boy's chest. Her soft voice full of tears would make anyone who heard it feel soft-hearted and angry.
"It's okay, it's okay. Now that I'm here, no one can bully you anymore." Yuzumi Yu touched the girl's soft hair, his voice soft as if coaxing a child.
"Hey!" Brother Shuangshui's roar came from a distance.
"It's so noisy." Yuzumi Yu's face turned cold, and he waved his hand. A sound of breaking air was heard, and the three people in the distance covered their stomachs in unison, and knelt on the ground with a low whimper.
The boy hugged the girl and turned away.
"What's going on?" the boy asked the girl.
"I wanted to go home early from school today, but they blocked me as soon as I left the school gate." The girl said in a wronged voice.
"How is it? Are you hurt anywhere?"
"No, they had a fight among themselves. It's none of my business."
"Huh? There is such a thing?" The boy asked in surprise.
The three people kneeling on the ground had red faces and were angry.
The girl's voice was heard again.
"Yes! I don't know why either."
"Then why did you just walk over there?"
"They want me to go over there, what can I do..." The girl seemed about to cry again.
"It's okay, don't cry... Why did they block you?"
"They want me to be their eldest brother's girlfriend..."
"What a scumbag."
The sound behind was no longer audible.
The three elder brothers knelt on the ground, clenched their fists, and exchanged angry glances with each other.
The girl said that the fight was a fight that a group of people blocked the girl and asked her to be their eldest brother's girlfriend. Then they started fighting among themselves and finally forced the girl to come over.
How could you say such an outrageous thing?
Also, why didn't that boy question it? !
ah!
This is what makes them most angry and confused.
That little girl looks cool and pretty, but she fights like a human-sized Tyrannosaurus Rex, and she specializes in kicking people in the back...
It took a while for the abdominal pain to subside and they were able to speak.
They immediately lifted up their clothes and saw a dark bruise on their abdomen.
"The feud is over." An older brother leaned against the wall and said grimly.
The other two also had terrifyingly gloomy expressions.
After resting for a while, the students from Shuangshui High School who were lying on the ground recovered and sat against the wall, all with ugly expressions on their faces.
"Da da."
There were footsteps.
A dozen or so Shuangshui students looked over.
Around the corner, a figure walked out.
He was wearing a dark blue, almost black, western-style school uniform jacket and dark trousers. He stood tall with his hands casually tucked into his pockets.
The man turned his head to the side, his handsome face expressionless as he looked at them.
"Let's have another fight."
The boy's voice was calm.
A thin young man who was not very tall stood in front of a group of people from Shuangshui who often fought and said, "Let's fight again."
What does it feel like?
Shuangshui and his group were all stunned for a moment.
"Huh? What did he say?"
Before anyone could react, the young man slowly approached with his hands in his pockets.
"This guy is so arrogant." A Shuangshui student couldn't help but stand up.
Everyone had a joking expression on their face, except for the three eldest brothers who had uncertain expressions, but they didn't stop it.
"If I can't beat that woman, can I beat you?" The man rubbed his wrist with a fierce look on his face and walked towards Yuzumi You.
A punch was thrown, but the young man dodged it lightly. A knee strike knocked the student down.
Everyone was stunned, and a few of them stood up to greet him.
The result... just like adults bullying children, those Shuangshui students were knocked down slowly by the young man, with his hands in his pockets from beginning to end.
It's as leisurely as taking a walk and kicking a few cans away.
Yuzumi Yu stopped in the middle of the crowd and said in a calm voice, "Let's go together."
"asshole!"
"Who do you think you are!"
Except for the three big brothers, everyone stood up angrily.
The three elder brothers still did not stop it.
In less than ten seconds, all the students from Shuangshui were knocked down with a kick from each of them.
Some were kicked in the stomach, and some were knocked unconscious by a high whip kick. After being kicked by the young man, no one could get up and they all lay on the ground wailing in pain.
The three big brothers looked at this scene and swallowed hard.
The young men looked relaxed in their fight, and beating more than a dozen people seemed easy and without any difficulty, but who were they?
Students from Shuangshui University!
A high school famous for fighting!
These people are either fighting or preparing to fight every day.
And now he was swept away so easily by one person?
Outrageous, absolutely outrageous.
Even more outrageous than that little sister of the humanoid Tyrannosaurus.
At least the little sister looked really fierce in the fight, while the boy in front of him looked like he was just taking a walk.
Seeing the young man slowly approaching, the three older brothers fell to their knees with a thud.
"Brother, there's a misunderstanding here!"
"Yes, there is a misunderstanding. We didn't bully your sister."
"We're just having a normal fight. We definitely don't have any intention of forcing that little girl to be my girlfriend!"
The three of them knelt on the ground and explained.
beat?
What to fight with?
A small stone could make a person kneel on the ground and be speechless, and in the end, he could easily beat more than a dozen people by himself.
Is this something they can mess with?
Even though they love to fight, they are just high school students!
The young man stopped in front of the three people with an expressionless face.
"Who wants my sister to be his girlfriend?" Yuzumi Yu asked calmly.
"No, brother, it's not like that..." An older brother was about to explain, but the teenager kicked him in the stomach. He bent over in pain and couldn't speak.
"Who is it?" Yuzumi Yu asked calmly.
Is it that important?
Does it matter what the truth is?
unimportant.
What matters is that Minako was indeed bullied by them, and what matters is that Minako is happy.
The remaining two people swallowed bitterly and looked at each other. One of them lowered his head and said, "It's me."
"Asshole!" Another big brother punched the person who admitted it and knocked him down.
Then came a brutal beating.
He beat him until the corner of his mouth was bleeding and his face was bruised and red before he stopped. Then he looked at Yuzumi Yu in a flattering manner and said, "Brother, I have already dealt with him. I promise that this will never happen again."
It's not that I'm spineless, it's not a matter of backbone.
The three of them knew very well who they could and could not offend, otherwise they could not become the leaders, and they could not make Shuangshui bigger and stronger.
The young man put his hands in his pockets, bent down, and looked at the other person with cold eyes: "I don't want to see people from Shuangshui near Meiping in the future."
"I understand, I understand!"
"Go to Shangju Martial Arts School. You can go and learn when you have time. You are too weak." After saying that, the young man straightened up, turned around and left.
The elder brother only felt a bitter taste in his throat.
Live in a martial arts school?
Who hasn't heard of it?
How did you offend the people from Shangju Martial Arts School?
They are just a group of high school students who love fighting!
Looking up and watching Yuzumi Yuu's back disappear into the distance, he quickly bowed his head and said loudly, "Thank you, big brother! We will definitely come and ask for your advice when we have time!"
Yuzumi Yu walked away.
A group of high school students who love to fight can't cause any waves.
There are just a group of students around.
After leaving the alley, Yuzumi Yu saw Minako standing obediently beside the pillar, holding a straw of strawberry milk and blinking her big eyes at him.
"Didn't I tell you to go back first?" He walked over and touched the girl's little head.
"I'm drinking milk." The girl is so cute.
"It's sealed."
"Yes! You have to hold hands before you can walk." The cold girl smiled.
Yuzumi Yu held Minako's hand, and the two of them walked home along the street following the sunset.
The shadows were stretched out very long, the billboards on the street were colorful, and the tram on the elevated road passed slowly.
Two figures walked under the neatly tied wires.
"Don't go home early next time. Participate in club activities." This is advice from someone who doesn't participate in clubs.
"I know."
"Study hard at school and don't fight."
"Minako is a very good student!"
"Yeah, Minako is very well behaved."
"...Hazumi-nii, are you really not in a relationship?"
"Even if your brother falls in love, you will always be my sister."
"...Oh, so, did you talk about it?"
"Even if you do get together, your sister will still like you as a lovely younger sister." Yuzumi Yu said gently.
Minako was heartbroken when she heard that he had a girlfriend, and he could understand that, but their relationship would not change just because he had a girlfriend.
Minako will always be his cutest sister.
"Oh, so did you talk about it?"
"Minako, you will always be my most adorable sister, and no one can change that."
"Oh, so did you talk about it?"
"…No."
"Hehe, Yuzumi-nii, you must study hard!"
"…"
After returning home, eating, studying, washing up and returning to the room in the evening, Yuzumi Yu lay on the bed.
[Emotion: 1361 (Minako Hashimoto, Kyoko Gono, Maki Ikema)]
Minako contributed another large amount of emotional value.
She is indeed his good sister.
Want to start an event?
To be honest, I'm a little tired today... Let's take another day off.
Yuzumi You suddenly sat up from the bed.
Resting every day, how shameful!
Work hard.
I just hope nothing weird happens.
But - fantasy is weird.
'System, start a bizarre event.'
[Spend 1000 emotion points]
[Emotion: 361 (Minako Hashimoto, Kyoko Gono, Maki Ikema)]
[Event extraction...]
Yuzumi Yu sat on the bed, silently waiting for the result.
Event - Rescue Across Time and Space]
[This event is a space-time event. Note: You cannot return before it is completed. Do you want to start the event?]
'save?'
'Can't return before completion?'
I traveled through time, what about this side?
[One day there, one hour here]
Yuzumi Yu checked the time.
10:41 p.m.
There are still eight or nine hours until morning, which is equivalent to eight or nine days over there, so there is more than enough time.
but--
'What would happen if I died there?'
[Event failed, forced to teleport back, and unable to gain evolution degree]
Yuzumi Yuu was silent.
He didn't know the situation over there, but the word "rescue" sounded quite dangerous.
This is more dangerous than exorcism, but fortunately his life will be guaranteed.
'Can I bring anything?'
[You can carry anything you have on you]
Yuzumi Yu got up and took out the cloth bag from under the bed.
Some other things need to be prepared.
Pulling open the wardrobe door, Yuzumi Yu took out a small box, took out the star-shaped dart, and gently ran his fingertips across the sharp tip of the dart, feeling a stinging sensation.
Very good, it still works.
Fortunately, this is a cross-time and space event, so he doesn't have to worry about killing people at all, otherwise he wouldn't have taken out such a thing.
'How long will I wear it?' he asked himself again.
Tokyo ten years ago
'Wouldn't that mean I'd meet myself?'
[You cannot meet yourself, otherwise time and space will be disrupted and the event will be forced to end]
'knew.'
Although they were not in the same time and space, he still took out a set of clothes from the bottom of the closet to be on the safe side.
A homemade ninja suit.
I just thought it looked cool, so I bought the fabric and made it. I wore it a few times at home, but never wore it outside.
——From the middle school mentality of adolescence.
He put on the clothes, which were a little small, but wearable. They just fitted him better, showing off the muscles he had trained for years.
With the light on, Yuzumi Yu stood in front of the mirror, looking at himself quietly.
This seems even more handsome.
The color scheme is black as the base with red edges.
Putting on the hood and the mask, Yuzumi Yu only revealed a pair of cold and indifferent eyes.
Behind the left shoulder, a cape hangs down, reaching the knee, black on the outside and dark red on the inside.
A single-sided cape, very handsome, isn't it?
Yuzumi Yu thinks his aesthetic taste is still online.
He wore loose trousers that were tied tightly from the ankles up, and black boots.
This dress can perfectly satisfy the second-year fantasy of adolescent boys.
Yuzumi Yu looked at the mirror, stretched out his hand, and unfolded three star-shaped darts in his hand. The cold light reflected the boy's handsome eyebrows.
"…So handsome."
He turned around suddenly, his cloak fluttered, there was a sound of breaking wind, and with a "bang", three darts accurately hit the middle point on the target.
He walked over, took the dart, examined the tip, and then put it away.
This is much more useful than a gun.
Silent, yet more lethal.
At least that's the case in Yuzumi Yu's hands.
"Knock knock knock" someone is knocking on the door.
Yuzumi Yu immediately turned around to look.
"You, don't study too late and go to bed early." The mother's gentle voice came from outside the door.
"Got it." Yuzumi Yu walked over and locked the door after listening to the footsteps outside the door.
He usually doesn't lock the door because his parents won't enter his room, which is why he feels safe hiding the knife under his bed.
But today's situation is special, so it's better to lock it.
Take out the sword from the cloth bag, hang it around your waist with the bent side facing down, and then hide the cloth bag under the bed.
The side of the katana that bends inward is the back of the blade, which means that the blade is now facing upwards. This way, when you draw the sword with your thumb facing downwards, it is considered a straight grip.
However - the knife was unsharpened, so it made no difference whether it was drawn or not, but to be cautious, he still brought it with him.
There shouldn't be anything else you need to bring.
He put his phone on the bedside table and stood there thinking.
See if there's anything missing.
After a while.
'Open the event.'
[Event - Rescue Across Time and Space, Progress 0]
"It really makes my blood boil..."
His sight flickered and the scene around him changed.
[Time: Late at night ten years ago]
[Location: Yotsuya Suga Shrine, Tokyo]
[The target person is about to appear]
The night breeze was very cool. Fortunately, it was very cool, otherwise Yuzumi Yu would have been so hot wearing this clothes.
He looked around.
"Isn't this the staircase called 'Your Name'?" He was a little surprised.
Yuzumi Yu was standing at the top of the stairs at this time, looking at the steps and the railing below. He had been here before, so how could he not recognize them?
"System, you still watch anime?" he asked in his mind.
[Don't watch]
Hearing hurried footsteps behind him, Yuzumi Yu turned around.
A little girl about eight or nine years old was running towards this side, and behind her, three men in black were chasing her.
The little girl's speed was obviously not as good as the man in black.
only--
Yuzumi Yu was stunned for a moment.
'Why are their faces so blurry?'
[The host does not belong to this time and space and cannot see the appearance of others clearly]
"So... can they see my face?"
[Can]
'?'
[But when the host leaves this time and space, all traces of the host's existence will be erased, leaving only a vague appearance in the memories of others. After all, the host does not belong to this point in time.]
'This outfit seems a bit redundant...'
In Yuzumi Yu's sight, the little girl with a blurred face fell because she ran too fast, and she lay on the ground crying and struggling to get up.
Yuzumi Yu couldn't see the other person's face clearly, but he could still feel the little girl's sadness.
[Target Person] These words flashed past the little girl's head.
He looked at the big man in black suit chasing after him.
I couldn't see the face clearly, but I could clearly feel the other person's ferocious look.
"Ahem." Clearing his throat, Yuzumi Yu walked forward, his left hand resting on the hilt of his sword, and said calmly, "Everyone, please give me some face."
"Swish!"
Two guns were pulled out, with their black muzzles pointed at him.
The other man in black was still running towards the little girl on the ground.
Hazumi Yu: "..."
"How rude."
quick!
Too fast to react!
The two men in black holding guns shook their wrists, and the sound of the guns breaking through the air was heard after they fell down.
Yuzumi Yu held his right hand across his chest, maintaining the posture he had just taken after throwing the stone.
With another flick of his hand, the big man in a suit who was already close to the little girl had no time to react and fell asleep.
"You, who are you?!" The man in black in the distance covered his painful wrist, not daring to pick up the gun on the ground, and asked with shock in his eyes.
Like what?
Before you entered the martial arts world, you saw me as a towering tree. After you entered the martial arts world, you saw me as a floating particle facing the blue sky.
The two big men in suits were obviously not simple characters. Just by looking at Yuzumi Yu's two moves, one could tell that this young man in strange clothes was terribly strong.
Why a teenager?
——Listen to the sound.
"Can you give me some face now?" Yuzumi Yu's voice was flat.
"Are you sure you want to get involved in this?" The big man in the suit looked obviously unhappy - of course, Yuzumi Yu couldn't see clearly.
Yuzumi Yu's left fingertips rhythmically tapped the hilt of the knife, his voice still flat: "I don't want to say it a second time."
"Then...I'm sorry, Your Excellency!"
A man in black quickly picked up the gun on the ground, and the other rushed towards Yuzumi Yu.
This is a great opportunity, even if they die, they will give it a try!
Unfortunately, in front of the young man who was rated as Wu MAX by the system, the two of them didn't even have a chance to fight hard.
Two more stones were shot out. The man in black was well prepared. He dodged randomly when he saw Yuzumi You showing signs of attacking. But this time Yuzumi You didn't hit the stun point, so he didn't need to be so precise.
The two men in black felt a sharp pain in their abdomen and fell to their knees, unable to speak.
Yuzumi Yu walked forward slowly and threw two stones again. This time the two men were unable to dodge and were knocked unconscious.
Why not kill?
He didn't want to commit murder, mainly because after he returned, all the traces he left here would disappear, and even if others remembered him, his appearance would be vague.
What's more, he is still masked now.
So it doesn't matter what happens.
If he can avoid killing, he doesn't want to take human lives, but if necessary, he will not show mercy.
Yuzumi Yu walked towards the little girl who was still lying on the ground.
The little girl has stopped crying. She saw what just happened.
The little girl stared blankly at the masked boy in strange clothes coming towards her, and shrank her neck in fear and crawled backwards.
The young man had handsome eyebrows and eyes without any emotion. He squatted down, and his cloak fell to the ground. The young man just stretched out his hand, but his voice was soft: "Do you need help?"
The moonlight was bright at night at Suga Shrine. A yellow light illuminated the stairs, casting a soft glow around the young man.
The boy's calm demeanor throughout the whole process involuntarily brought some peace of mind to the little girl.
"You, who are you?" The little girl didn't stretch out her hand, but just lay on the ground with her head shrunk and asked weakly.
"Well..." Yuzumi Yu thought for a moment, "I'm just a kind person passing by."
"Good, kind-hearted man..." the little girl muttered, and climbed up. Her petite body looked adorable. She bowed and said in a baby voice, "Thank you, big brother."
Yuzumi Yuu withdrew his hand, supported his chin and looked at the other person: "Aren't you afraid?"
He found that the little girl's emotions came and went quickly.
This might be a child.
The little girl turned around, looked at the three people lying on the ground, and shrank her neck again: "I want to go home."
[Progress: 10]
Yuzumi Yu glanced at the progress of the incident and softened his voice to avoid scaring the other party away: "Where is your home? I'll take you there."
"But, is it okay?" the little girl asked timidly.
Yuzumi Yu discovered that the little girl was a little stuttering.
"That's absolutely fine," he said, extending his hand again.
This time, the little girl hesitated for a moment, then reached out and grabbed a few of the boy's gloved fingers.
"Thank you, thank you, big brother."
"fine."
Yuzumi Yu stood up and pulled the little girl down the stairs.
"Where is your home?" the boy asked.
"I, I don't know either."
"…"
"I, I can't remember the way, but I know my home."
"…"This is difficult.
"How did you get out?" Yuzumi Yu asked again.
"Come out to play with some sisters."
"Still out playing so late?"
"Me." The little girl pouted softly, "I want to go out and play."
"Where are the sisters?"
"No, I don't know. I snuck out."
"..." Yuzumi Yu stopped walking, "Is it inside the shrine?"
The little girl seemed to be stuck, and after a long while she managed to utter a word: "It should be."
"Then let's go back." He turned around and was about to return the same way, but the little girl grabbed his hand tightly.
Yuzumi Yu turned around and the little girl said weakly, "There are bad guys over there."
It should refer to those people just now.
"It's okay, that's not a bad person, that's cabbage." Yuzumi You said lightly, and tried to leave, but was pulled tightly again.
"I, I don't want to go back." The little girl looked pitiful, but unfortunately Yuzumi You couldn't see clearly.
Yuzumi Yu now understood that this little brat just didn't want to go home.
[Progress: 10]
After checking the progress, Yuzumi Yu pulled the little girl to the side of the street and squatted down.
The little girl hesitated for a moment, then squatted down like him.
The two, one big and one small, squatted on the street. In the deserted evening, the pale yellow street lights looked very bleak.
"Didn't you just say you wanted to go home?" Yuzumi Yu said expressionlessly.
"I, I don't want to go back again." The little girl shrank her neck and didn't dare to look at Yuzumi You.
"Why?"
"I, I want to stay with you." The little girl was simple-minded and said whatever she wanted to say.
"Why?"
"You won't scold me."
Yuzumi Yu was silent for a while: "Do you often get scolded at home?"
"Yeah." The little girl nodded softly.
Yuzumi Yu sighed inwardly.
Logically, a girl of eight or nine years old shouldn't be so naive, but this little girl is as innocent as a blank sheet of paper.
It's so easy to trust others.
They had only been together for a dozen minutes when she wanted to leave with him.
Yuzumi Yu didn't know what to say.
"I'm a bad guy." he said suddenly.
"But, but big brother, you said before that you are a kind person."
"A bad guy with good intentions."
The little girl's brain seemed to be on fire. She kept muttering these words and didn't come to her senses for a long time.
At the vending machine, he pulled the little girl, bought two bottles of soda, opened one and handed it to her.
The little girl stared blankly at the small, soft hand that took the soda until she heard another "puff". She raised her eyes and saw Yuzumi Yu pulling down her mask and pouring the soda into her mouth.
Only then did she learn how to pour it into the cup.
"Cough cough..." The little girl coughed and spat out the soda in her mouth.
Yuzumi Yu looked sideways with his head tilted up, feeling a little amused.
"It's so hard to drink."
"It tastes great." Yuzumi Yu continued drinking.
Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard in the distance. Yuzumi Yu put on the mask with an expressionless face and looked over.
Under the pale yellow light, two figures were running towards them quickly.
They were two women in casual clothes.
The little girl suddenly hid behind him and covered her face with the boy's cloak.
'You're really slow.'
The two beautiful women obviously noticed the little figure who was peeking behind Yuzumi Yu. They came to a place not far from the two of them, put their hands on their lower backs, and looked alert.
Yuzumi Yu watched their actions without any fluctuation in his eyes.
If the other party dares to draw his gun, he will only be faster.
The two women stared at Yuzumi You with sharp eyes and said coldly, "Hand over the young lady and we will let you live."
The underworld?
Yuzumi Yu felt someone pulling his cloak. He turned around and saw the little girl looking at him and whispered, "I, I don't want to go with them."
"Are these the sisters you came out to play with?" the young man asked in a soft voice.
The little girl nodded reluctantly.
[Progress: 10]
Looking at the progress, Yuzumi Yu was silent.
Logically speaking, he has now rescued the little girl from the bad guys, and the other party's people have arrived at the scene, so why hasn't the progress changed?
Will there be any problems on the way home?
Yuzumi Yuu looked back at the two women and said calmly, "But she doesn't seem to want to go with you."
The two of them immediately tensed up.
Yuzumi Yu added, "I rescued this little girl along the way. To ensure her safety, I will accompany her back with you."
Rescued along the way?
Miss was attacked?
The two women's eyes instantly turned to the small figure behind the young man and asked gently, "Miss, are you hurt?"
"I, I'm fine. It was the big brother who saved me." The little girl's muffled voice came from behind the boy.
The two men immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but they still remained vigilant, but their attitude was better.
"Thank you very much." The two women bowed.
Yuzumi Yu looked at this scene and felt that these two people were not as bad as the little girl said.
"Please come with us, we will not refuse your request." The two made a gesture of invitation.
Yuzumi You looked back and saw the little girl with her head down and not saying anything.
He took the little girl and walked towards the two women.
I just happened to see the woman holding down the headset and saying, "I know, the lady has been found."
He took the little girl into the other party's stretched luxury car and drove away under the cover of night.
Late at night in downtown Tokyo, there is still traffic and the lights are still bright.
"I'm sorry to bother you." One of the two women in the car said sincerely.
At least the attitude and voice are sincere.
The residence is a luxury apartment located in Yotsuya, Shinjuku Ward.
[Progress: 10]
There is still no change in progress.
The elevator slowly climbed to the top floor. Before the door opened, Yuzumi Yu's pupils shrank. He hugged the little girl, stepped on the wall, and did a backflip against the top of the elevator.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The elevator door was directly pierced, and countless bullets shot in, like a torrential rain, sweeping across the space in the elevator.
Fortunately, there was a vent at the top of the elevator. Yuzumi Yu stuck his hand in the vent and, relying on his core strength, held the little girl against the top.
"What's going on?"
On the ceiling, the little girl was already frightened and Yuzumi Yu frowned.
The heavy rain continued and the sound of large-caliber rifles was whistling.
It was obvious that the little girl was just being chased at the shrine before, and the other party didn't want to kill her.
But when you come here, you just scan the elevator?
——These two groups of people are not together.
Yuzumi Yu could only think this way, it was reasonable.
How many enemies does the little girl have?
It took a while before the gunshots stopped. It seemed that the magazine was emptied directly, and it was an extended version.
How big is the hatred?
Yuzumi Yu landed smoothly with the little girl in his arms, and the elevator door slowly opened.
The two women had been shot to pieces, lying on the ground in a bloody mess. The ground was covered with bullet heads and blood.
Yuzumi Yu took out a piece of cloth from his pocket - prepared to bandage the wound.
He blindfolded the little girl. The little girl had obviously never seen such a bloody scene. Her face turned pale with fear and she let the boy tie the cloth strips on her eyes like a puppet.
As the elevator door opened, a row of masked men in black standing outside saw this scene.
A young boy in a homemade ninja costume was squatting and tying the eyes of the little girl.
It's very heartwarming, if you ignore the bloodstains on the ground and the person in the pool of blood.
The people outside the door were stunned for a moment. If they were swept like this, how could anyone survive?
Before they could react, several silver lights flashed and a row of people fell to the ground with their eyes open.
Yuzumi Yu stood up, holding the little girl's hand. Her eyes seemed to be blindfolded, and the little girl walked timidly.
"It's okay, just follow me." The boy's gentle voice was like a reassurance, allowing the little girl to take bold steps and follow the direction of his hand.
After getting out of the elevator, Yuzumi Yu looked at both sides of the corridor.
It's obvious that there's more than one household on the top floor of this apartment.
He heard footsteps around the corner and looked over.
A row of masked figures rushed out from the corner, holding large-caliber rifles. When they saw the two men, they raised their guns.
"Is it really that serious...to deal with a little girl."
A silver light flashed, and in an instant, four people in the distance fell down.
It seems that there are not enough darts.
He removed the darts from the necks of several people lying on the ground, shook off the blood on them, put them away, and then checked the guns again.
Not only does he have no bullets, he also doesn't know how to use this thing.
The elevator seemed to be malfunctioning. No matter how hard I pressed the button, the door wouldn't close and it wouldn't move. It was stuck.
[Progress: 20]
Do you want to continue killing?
Yuzumi You held the little girl's hand, walked around the people on the ground, and headed towards the far corner, which was the stairwell.
There were footsteps again. He let go of the little girl's hand and rushed over quickly. When he saw her turning a corner, he attacked directly.
In an instant, the four masked men who rushed up were knocked down lifelessly.
Killing all the way down from the top floor of the apartment with the little girl is too exciting, but where are the people on the little girl's side?
Why are there killers everywhere I look?
He turned around and saw that the little girl had already taken off the cloth covering her eyes. Her face was blurry and her expression could not be seen clearly.
Yuzumi You walked over quickly. The little girl looked up at him. He blindfolded her again, then picked up the little girl and ran towards the stairwell.
From the top floor down one floor, you can hear dense footsteps.
He looked through the gap towards the stairwell and saw a dense crowd of masked men in black.
'So many people?'
He immediately turned around and ran upstairs.
It's difficult to fight, there are too many people, not enough darts, and it's hard to defend against hidden guns.
"Big brother, are we going to die..." The little girl's frightened voice sounded helpless and crying.
He turned his head and saw that the little girl he was holding on his shoulders had taken off the cloth strip at some point.
Although he couldn't see the expression clearly, he could feel the other person's fear.
Well, the child is just a little kid, it would be strange if he wasn't afraid of such a thing.
"Why did you take off the cloth on your eyes again?" he asked as he rushed into the corridor on the top floor.
"I, I don't want to die without knowing why..." the little girl said weakly.
"It's okay, nothing will happen." Yuzumi Yu comforted the other person softly and kicked a door.
Didn't kick it open.
As expected of a high-end residence, the door is really solid.
"Where is your home?" he asked.
The little girl pointed in a direction and he ran over quickly. The little girl entered her fingerprint, the door opened, and the two of them rushed in and quickly closed the door.
"Click!" The sound of a gun being loaded.
Yuzumi Yu turned around suddenly, and a woman holding a gun came out from the corner, pointing the gun at the two of them.
"Miss, I'm sorry..." The man looked painful.
A silver light flashed, blood bloomed in the air, and the woman fell to the ground.
The little girl covered her mouth to muffle her voice.
"How come there's still a traitor?" Yuzumi Yuu now felt like he was surrounded by enemies on all sides.
There is a passion to fight against the whole world.
"Click, click, click!" The sound of countless guns being loaded came from inside. Now the two of them were standing in the passage at the door, so naturally they couldn't see anyone.
'My evolution!'
Yuzumi Yu was a little angry.
It's never-ending, right?
He opened the toilet door and pushed the little girl in: "Stay here."
After closing the door, he had no expression on his face and a very cold aura. With a whoosh, his cloak rose up with his figure and he rushed into the house.
The next moment, countless gunshots rang out, followed by screams and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
The little girl covered her mouth to suppress her voice, her tiny body squatting in the corner of the toilet, trembling with fear.
Soon, the noise stopped, the toilet door opened, and the boy appeared at the door.
[Progress: 30]
Blood dripped onto the ground from the tied-up trouser legs, leaving a bloody footprint with every step.
——Other people's blood.
Yuzumi You panted slightly, walked in, squatted on the ground, and covered the other person's eyes with the cloth again.
"Promise me you won't take it off again, okay?" he said gently.
The little girl nodded weakly and whispered, "Okay."
The little girl didn't see much now, and although it was still shocking for a child, if she had seen the hellish scene inside, it would have been truly shocking.
It will ruin the other person's life.
"If you take it off again, my brother will be angry."
"I, I understand." The little girl lowered her head. "Yes, I'm sorry."
"It's okay, just be good now." Yuzumi Yu took off his gloves, washed his hands, took the little girl's hand, walked out of the bathroom and walked inside.
The huge living room was littered with corpses.
Only...this time it wasn't masked men, but a group of people in plain clothes.
How many waves of people are there?
Yuzumi Yu didn't know.
The horror of this incident was beyond his imagination.
If it were someone else, he would have failed and gone home.
Fortunately, even if Yuzumi Yu fails in the end, he will be fine.
The living room was filled with a nauseating smell of blood, as if the air was filled with blood.
Yuzumi Yu held the little girl with his right hand and held the hilt of the knife with his left hand. The bloody scene in front of him made him close his eyes.
During the battle, my adrenaline was surging and I didn't feel much. Now that the battle is over, my sanity is slowly returning and my blood is gradually cooling down, I feel how horrifying this scene was.
'I'm going to have nightmares tonight,' he thought.
"Brother, it smells so bad, I want to vomit." The little girl's timid voice sounded.
Yuzumi Yu opened his eyes and said calmly, "Brother wants to vomit too."
But he couldn't understand why so many people, in so many waves, were needed to deal with a little girl.
Suddenly, he gripped the hilt of the knife tightly, and a sharp look flashed in his eyes.
Did anyone know I was coming?
An idea emerged and grew uncontrollably.
prophecy?
Or divination?
"System, someone seems to have predicted you."
The system is unpredictable
That is...
He suddenly squatted down, held the little girl's shoulders, and asked seriously, "Has anyone ever told you your fortune?"
"Brother, why..."
"Answer me."
The little girl paused and shrank her neck in fear.
"Yes, I have."
"What did that person say?" Yu Zhuyou asked.
"She said, she said, I have a great disaster in my life..." The little girl said weakly, "If I can get through it, I can live peacefully. If I can't, I will die."
Yuzumi Yuu frowned.
"Who calculated it for you?" he continued to ask.
"One, an old lady who is very good at divination."
"Who knows about this?"
"Everyone knows."
Yuzumi Yuu was lost in thought.
So, today is the day when the little girl will die?
So many people were arranged to prevent her from passing through successfully?
The shrine may just be the beginning, and everything that follows is a backup plan prepared by the other party.
After all, if they really survived, according to the divination results, the little girl would live a stable life in the future. They only had this one chance...
"Big brother, today, is today my death?" The little girl thought of it immediately.
The doubts were basically resolved, and Yuzumi Yu felt better.
He looked at the little girl. The little girl was very obedient and did not take off the blindfold.
Although he couldn't see the face clearly, he could feel the other person's panic and anxiety.
"Today is not your death." He pressed the man's shoulder and said softly, "Today is your transformation day. From now on, you will no longer be bound by fate."
"No, I won't be bound by fate anymore?" The little girl obviously couldn't understand this sentence at the moment.
Yes, I will no longer be bound by fate.
How does it feel to know from a young age that you will face a great disaster?
Even if she doesn't know what the death calamity means when she is very young, she will gradually understand as she grows older and time passes. This death calamity is like an invisible rope that traps the little girl.
She was protected too well, like being locked in a cage, which made her naive. She yearned to be outside and wanted to go out and play without any constraints, which was why she rebelled and got scolded.
Also, because he knew that he was going to die, he could not be as happy and carefree as other children.
The double shackles of body and mind make it difficult for girls to move forward at an age when they should be running happily.
[Progress: 30]
Looking at the progress bar, Yuzumi Yu understood the meaning of this event.
Rescue across time and space.
He not only wants to save the little girl's life, but also her soul.
It doesn't mean that once the death crisis is resolved, everything will return to normal. The past days, including today's experience, are like a thorn, piercing the little girl's heart.
Even if the death calamity is resolved, she is destined not to be as happy as other children. The way she grows up is the most fundamental problem.
What Yuzumi Yu had to do was not to pull out the thorn, he couldn't do it.
He could only try his best to make the thorn less painful and less noticeable.
Time will eventually fade everything.
"Ding-ling-ling..."
The phone rang and the little girl shuddered.
Yuzumi Yu pulled the little girl over, walked around the person lying on the ground, and took out a phone from the pocket of a person in a pool of blood.
The call is connected.
"Hey, how's it going?"
"The situation is not bad." Yuzumi Yu said lightly.
There was a moment of silence on the other end.
"Damn it!" With a curse, the phone was hung up.
"Bang, bang, bang!" The door was smashed and made a loud noise.
"Big brother..." the little girl was scared.
"It's okay." Yuzumi Yu comforted softly and shot a dart casually. With a "clang" sound, the dart got stuck in the glass and cracks appeared on the floor-to-ceiling window instantly.
He ran to the window with the little girl in his arms.
How many floors are there here?
About thirty floors.
"Bang!"
The glass was broken, and Yuzumi Yu covered the little girl's head and body with his cloak. The two of them flew into the air outside the window, with broken glass all over the sky, and the light and shadow, as well as the two figures, were reflected in the fragments.
Yuzumi Yu retracted the dart in the air and took off the cloth from the little girl's eyes.
With her back to the window and covered by her cloak, she could not see what was happening inside the room. She could only see the two people in the night sky and countless broken glass fragments around them.
A feeling of weightlessness came over me.
The little girl closed her eyes tightly and buried her head in the boy's blood-soaked chest in fear.
Under the night sky, two figures fell.
But in mid-air...a hang glider opened.
Feeling the flow of air and the sensation of gliding, Yuzumi Yu's hands holding the rope gradually loosened.
He wasn't sure whether this simple hang glider could be used, after all, he had never tried it before.
Fortunately, this thing was useful and his previous day and night research was not in vain.
The apartment door was broken open, and a group of masked men chased to the broken window, looking down for the two people.
After a while, someone shouted "over there". Everyone looked over there and then looked in the direction the person was pointing.
In the pitch-black night, a figure could be seen vaguely flying away on a hang glider...
[Progress: 50]
