Chapter 21: The Messenger of Justice
Just as the story was progressing in the direction that Hanyou no Yorihime had imagined, a black-haired girl wearing suspenders suddenly appeared.
"Hmm? This person looks a bit familiar, don't they? I wonder if I've seen them before? But what's with that sneaky behavior? They walked away and then came back again, repeating it several times. Are they trying to be a hero but got cold feet after comparing the fighting powers of both sides? Intetsu Ichijou watched as things developed, looking more and more interesting by the minute. His legs moved on their own towards that direction - indeed, spectating is one of humanity's hidden attributes!"
Oh no, it seems like they've been discovered! Kaito Fuyuki approaches the scene to get a closer look. As he gets nearer, the black-haired girl takes out her phone and accidentally makes a noise that alerts the delinquents, who then notice her presence. The black-haired girl has an inaudible conversation with the delinquents before walking away with a dry laugh.
"Cut, I thought there would be some good show to watch." Ji Lu's eyes, which had been slightly excited, slowly turned back into dull dead fish eyes as he began to slow down his pace; indeed, the development of things would still become like this. What is this feeling of disappointment in my heart? Being timid and afraid of trouble is a natural human reaction when facing danger, there's nothing to blame about that; didn't you know very well back then when you were expelled from school, all your relatives and friends didn't dare to say a word, and let you work alone at GD?
The beautiful scene of bravely standing up for the victim only exists in 2D! In 3D, it's already good if others don't kick you when you're down, so if you don't even resist yourself, no one can save you!
I started my journey with a bow in both hands, walking towards the iron bridge while gazing at the azure sky. My footsteps returned to normal speed; I fully understand this point, so now I'm not going around doing heroic deeds or being someone else's savior, but simply wanting to go and hunt monsters to earn gold coins!
"Please...please stop!"
A soft, gentle female voice, carried by the vibrations of footsteps through the air, had already reached his ears from the scene; it made him pause for a moment before continuing to move forward.
"This person is already injured..."
Today's wind is a bit loud, Jielu Chuyi raised his head, his eyes fixed on the changing speed of the clouds in the sky. The clouds that had been quiet for a long time in the air seemed to be torn apart by the sudden wind. Jielu Chuyi still had a calm and carefree expression on his face, but his feet seemed to have quickened their pace slightly.
"And... and the morals committee is coming soon"
Soten Ryoko summoned up her courage and looked straight at the delinquent in front of her, who was blocking out the sunlight with his body. She said something that completely contradicted the trembling tone of her voice; although her mind was constantly making excuses to run away, her body made a more honest choice than her brain.
These few vicious words spoken by Satsuki Kiryuin have amused her, who does she think she is? A heroic knight of justice from ancient times? Clearly scared stiff like a chicken that's been soaked in cold water on a winter day, and even the person she was trying to help with her righteous speech has shamelessly run away. This kind of guy who can't see his own strength and wants to be a good-for-nothing hero should be beaten up!
The leader kicked the wall next to Sotenashi's head with one foot, and it wasn't until the wall behind him shook violently that Sotenashi finally came to his senses and covered his head in defense; he was going to get beaten up badly, but at the time, he had already realized something was off when he stood up to stop them. What is this feeling of being so scared that you're almost crying? If you're scared, then why stand up at all?
Satenashi was dragged by the hair, her posture changing from a squat to standing upright, the intense pain on her scalp making her groan; the leader of the delinquents' body odor and the smell of hair gel wafting over to her made her almost suffocate.
"You little brat, you're just a powerless guy who doesn't have the right to boss people around like this. Today, I'll give you a lesson so that you can remember this sentence more deeply." The leader of the delinquents pulled Sotenashi's hair close to his face, speaking in a foul-smelling mouth one word at a time; as soon as he finished speaking, two loud thuds were heard; turning around, those two who were still jumping around and laughing as background characters now lay on the ground, shaking their bodies and foaming at the mouth.
A high school student who appeared out of nowhere, staring with a dead fish-like gaze, nonchalantly turned off the electric baton's switch, which was still sparking. His calm and collected demeanor made it seem as if he had nothing to do with the crime suspect.
"Today's wind is quite boisterous, yet slightly mournful. The wind seems to be blowing ominous things into the town. Let's hurry up before the wind stops..."
Then this dead fish-eyed high school student spat out inexplicable and completely incomprehensible words.
The noisy wind blows by... an awkward silence...
"Although I'm not in a hurry, could you please put down the hostage you're holding?"
If possible, I really don't want to engage in a fierce one-on-one battle, that's not my strong suit. Sneaking up and attacking with the military electric baton I bought from the black market, that's what made me invincible in the past nights of debauchery. In short, aside from being a hidden violent maniac, Jia Lu is still a person who will die if he doesn't use dirty methods to defeat his enemies in battle.
"Huh? You can take down those two useless trash without making a sound, looks like you still have some strength left." The leader of the delinquents let go of Souten's hair and twisted his face in a sarcastic tone towards Kaito. It seemed that all the delinquents from Neon City had similar speaking habits, this way of talking couldn't intimidate Kaito at all, instead it made him think they were like clowns.
Of course, this is not the point, the point is that Jie Lü Chu Yì saw that his initial goal had been achieved, and he was secretly delighted to recite it silently; The skill 'Interrogation' was used successfully, and the skill experience increased by 20. Your skill has leveled up!
"Ah, you're the one from the bank robbery that time!" Soten Ryoko was released by the leader of the delinquents and fell to the ground; before she could even cry out in pain, the figure in her eyes merged with the person who had helped her during the bank robbery.
"Huh? So it's still an old acquaintance, huh? This kind of arrogant behavior really is a case of 'birds of a feather flocking together'! If that's the way it is, then I'll just have to bring you double the pain later!" The leader of the delinquents sneered at Soten no Ko, his expression twisted in confidence.
"Haha, what a ridiculous statement. Do you think you can dodge my slash with your weak and inferior skills? Now let me show you the true power of my slash!
Jia Lu Chu saw that the leader of the delinquents was so confident, he became even more confident himself, taking out his electric baton once again. To deal with this level of delinquent, just a little bit of effort would be enough!"
