Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

“Si Gong, I think he means that you are very likely to be in danger, not what you think.”

“Eh? I… I…”

Due to extreme shyness, Si Gong Huiye even stuttered for a while. After trying to sort out her emotions, she barely returned to her normal appearance.

“I didn’t think anything else…”

“You better not be.”

Hiratsuka Shizuka curled her lips, sighed helplessly, and thought that even the eldest daughter of the Si Gong Conglomerate, the perfect genius beauty Si Gong Huiye, had fallen, right?

Not bad, nearly a year has passed since the other party met Yexing. This is already the second best result.

The current record holder for being stubborn still belongs to the God of Stubbornness, Yukinoshita Yukino, who is still refreshing the record every minute and every second.

“Danger… me…?”

After suppressing the shyness in her heart, Si Gong Huiye heard that she was in danger, but she didn’t have any special reaction, instead, she was unusually calm.

After all, she grew up in such a family environment. Although she has not encountered any real life-threatening dangers under surveillance-like protection, Si Gong Huiye's ability to withstand pressure is still very strong to be able to support herself until today.

It’s just that she is “a bit” love-struck.

Si Gong Huiye frowned slightly, looked at Yexing standing there, her face hesitant, and whispered.

“If I’m with you… my father’s side wouldn’t be too much of a problem, but if I don’t return to that mansion, the news will soon leak. The last time I left Kyoto to go to Nitou Island, it has already aroused suspicion from many interested people… Of course, I’m not worried about myself, the main thing is… the main thing is…”

Si Gong Huiye said here, looking a little hesitant, turned her face away, not daring to look directly at Yexing’s eyes, and said in a standard tsundere tone.

“I… I don’t like to cause trouble for others. If you are with me… if those interested people know… it’s hard to guarantee that you won’t get into trouble.”

Si Gong Huiye is not a fool. She has already discovered that her father, the current head of the Si Gong Conglomerate, Si Gong Yan’an, has not appeared in public for a long time, and she can also hear the weakness in the Si Gong family head’s voice when she occasionally talks to him.

I'm afraid that the father's state has been so bad that it cannot be concealed, and he may not even be able to walk on the ground, leaving only the last unknown amount of time, but it will definitely not be too long.

Even Si Gong Huiye has noticed it. Those who are eyeing the Si Gong family, as well as the Si Gong family's competitors, must have also noticed the abnormality. Among them, there is the Si Tiao family of Si Tiao Zhenfei.

Although Huiye doesn't get along well with Si Tiao Zhenfei, and thinks that this girl is not cute at all, she doesn't think that, according to the other party's character, she would be willing to attack the Si Gong family. I'm afraid that Si Tiao Zhenfei doesn't know the real reason for this student council president election, just like her, she is just involuntarily facing the family's orders.

In such a troubled time, Si Gong Huiye also considered that if she and Yexing were together and were discovered by others, those enemies lurking in the dark and eager to move would most likely regard Yexing as her weakness, and then think of using the other party by any means to achieve some ulterior motives.

The key is…

Si Gong Huiye understands very well that Yexing is indeed her weakness, just like Hayasaka Ai. Of course, Fujiwara Chika is also included, but no one would be stupid enough to provoke Fujiwara Chika and establish a powerful enemy in the political world for themselves. It's completely unnecessary.

“I understand your concerns.”

Yexing nodded and slowly opened his mouth.

“You are also worried that if you don’t live in that mansion, Hayasaka Ai, as your personal maid, will also be easily targeted by those people, right?”

“Yes… you’re right.”

Hearing Yexing say her thoughts, a soft look appeared in Si Gong Huiye's always emotionless red eyes, and she whispered.

“She has been protecting me… now, it’s my turn to protect her.”

“No need.”

Yexing waved his hand and said something amazing with a chuckle.

“Let me protect you two instead.”

“Eh? What do you mean…”

“Both of you, stay by my side.”

Hearing the conversation between Yexing and Si Gong Huiye, and hearing him say that not only Si Gong Huiye, but even the fashionable blonde girl, would be protected together, Hiratsuka Shizuka felt a little jealous and couldn't help but say.

“I also need to be protected.”

“Then come on.”

Before Hiratsuka Shizuka could show a smile, she heard Yexing add nonchalantly.

“But let me tell you first, Yangnai also lives with us. If you move in with us, she will have fun.”

Hearing this, Hiratsuka Shizuka's smile froze, and she imagined the scene.

The image of Yukinoshita Yangnai's sweet smiling little devil appeared in her mind, and at the same time, the little devil's whisper rang out.

“Yo, Shizuka, you joined too?”

“I thought you were very serious. I didn’t expect that you would agree to a teacher-student relationship and move in together.”

“How about this, let’s do it together tonight…”

Just imagining this scene, Hiratsuka Shizuka felt a headache. It is true that she has a good relationship with Yangnai, but she really can't deal with the other party's character. Rather, no one in this world can deal with Yukinoshita Yangnai, even Yexing sometimes finds it difficult to resist.

“I’m not going.”

“Congratulations, you made a wise decision.”

… …

Later that day, inside the exclusive apartment building of the Supernatural Quantum Mechanics Research Society.

“Hmph… you came too…”

Sitting on the sofa, Yukinoshita Yukino frowned slightly when she saw Si Gong Huiye standing there, seemingly not liking the other party.

Si Gong Huiye was not the kind of character who would be submissive, but continued to maintain a polite smile and replied.

“This is… ? Oh, Yukinoshita-san, I didn’t expect you to be here too.”

Feeling that the atmosphere between the two was a bit tense, Yui Yuigahama quickly stood between the two, trying to smooth things over.

“Eh eh eh, don’t quarrel, don’t quarrel. Since you’re here, then everyone is Yexing’s family, don’t quarrel, get along peacefully.”

Yuigahama Yui didn't expect that she originally brought up Yexing's name because she thought it could suppress the two of them, but unexpectedly, when she said Yexing's name, both Si Gong Huiye and Yukinoshita Yukino blushed, and then denied it in unison.

“What do you mean everyone? I’m not.”

After saying that, Yukinoshita Yukino and Si Gong Huiye realized what they had said, looked at each other, and their eyes almost collided with sparks in the air.

Appraisal complete.

They are the same type of stubborn.

“That’s enough, there’s nothing to quarrel about.”

Hearing Yexing speak, Si Gong Huiye and Yukinoshita Yukino calmed down, but the two were still staring at each other, looking like neither of them was willing to admit defeat.

It is normal for Yukinoshita Yukino to hate Si Gong Huiye.

Si Gong Huiye has always been instilled with the noble elite concept that as the eldest daughter of the Si Gong family, every word and deed must conform to her status and cannot be the same as ordinary people, and although her current personality is not as cold as before, the habits she has cultivated since childhood will not be changed after all.

And what Yukinoshita Yukino hates the most is this point.

“Fake.”

In Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes, a private school like Shuchiin Academy, which is self-righteous and considers itself superior, is already a “fake”, and Si Gong Huiye, who has always maintained the image of a perfect young lady, is even more of a “fake”.

Or rather, what Yukino Yukinoshita disliked wasn't Kagura Shinomiya herself, but the feeling that Kagura was constantly suppressing her inner self, as if she were bound.

It was no different from Yui Yuigahama back then, except one sacrificed herself, using gentleness to maintain the "atmosphere" between friends, while the other sacrificed herself, using "nobility" to meet the expectations of the outside world.

And Kagura Shinomiya's reason for disliking Yukino Yukinoshita was also very simple.

Because of the adolescent syndrome, the two girls had been in contact for a while.

In Yukino Yukinoshita, Kagura Shinomiya seemed to see another version of herself. Although the Yukinoshita family couldn't compare with the Shinomiya family at all, if she had had the courage of Yukino Yukinoshita at the time, and had a sister like Haruno Yukinoshita who could sacrifice everything for her younger sister…

Would the person who entered Sobu High School at that time, enjoyed a peaceful and beautiful campus life, didn't need to scheme every day, and most importantly, joined the Supernatural Quantum Mechanics Research Society, and could bicker with Yosho every day, be herself?

Kagura Shinomiya yearned for, even envied, Yukino Yukinoshita's life, but Yukino Yukinoshita was still being stubborn about it.

She couldn't accept it.

“Let's get back to business.”

Yosho leaned lazily on the large sofa, and raised his chin at Yukino Yukinoshita.

“Yukinoshita-san, what do you think about the fainting of the students?”

Yukino Yukinoshita frowned slightly upon hearing this, and glanced at Kagura Shinomiya and Ai Hayasaka sitting there. Yosho noticed her expression, and said with a smile.

“Speak freely, they're pretty much the same, and they should have guessed it.”

When he said this, Yosho suddenly recalled the conversation he had with Eriri Spencer Sawamura at the comic convention back then.

He thought the other party had guessed it, thought that golden-haired loser was on the second floor, and revealed everything directly, only to find out that he was on the first floor, and Eriri…

Didn't even get in the elevator.

Single-celled organism, living up to its name.

But Kagura Shinomiya and Ai Hayasaka could definitely guess it, after all, the clues were so obvious. Ai Hayasaka had even seen with her own eyes the power he displayed that far exceeded human imagination.

If they still couldn't guess it, these two, master and servant, would have been caught and eliminated in the cruel environment of the Shinomiya family long ago.

“Okay.”

Yukino Yukinoshita didn't say much about this, but in the absence of Rio Futaba, who had gone to the Reverse World to train, she took the initiative to take on the temporary duties of combat staff and Yosho's one-time brain replacement, and said thoughtfully.

“Analyzing from the images you saw, a massacre will occur within Shuchiin Academy, and the red moon in the sky proves that the location of the incident is in the Reverse World, but what confuses me the most is the incident itself.”

“Rio and I have discussed it. Originally, our speculation was that the successive fainting incidents of students were SERN's actions, selecting those who have significant influence on the future timeline and are qualified to become spirit ability users.”

“But if your premonition is correct, then creating this bloody incident and completely destroying Private Shuchiin Academy would not be beneficial to the plan at all. Assuming that SERN has already placed personnel into Shuchiin, and… Although I don't want to admit it, the fact is that the students of Private Shuchiin Academy are much stronger than those of other high schools.”

“It has a large number of excellent talents who are enough to become spirit ability users, possessing various specialties and talents, and these talents each have significant family backgrounds. SERN definitely can't find a second place like this besides Private Shuchiin Academy.”

“It doesn't make sense, carrying out a meaningless massacre… Considering SERN's goal…”

Speaking of this, Yukino Yukinoshita raised her head, as if she had suddenly thought of something terrible, and said in disbelief.

“Could it be… that SERN is planning to create a massacre, and then blame it on ‘Masked,’ or… directly put it on you?”

Kagura Shinomiya, Ai Hayasaka, and Yui Yuigahama's expressions changed upon hearing this.

If SERN really had such a plan, and it succeeded…

Then the parents of those students at Private Shuchiin Academy, who have significant influence in all circles, and even high-level figures who are enough to determine the future of Sakura Province, will inevitably have a strong hatred for “Masked.” By that time, not to mention being a hero secretly guarding Kyoto City, even if there are L and Soichiro Yagami as internal support, in the face of such a terrible incident, “Masked” will definitely become a notorious wanted criminal.

Yukino Yukinoshita's analysis did not stop there, but continued.

“If ‘Masked’ becomes the number one wanted criminal… Now that spirit abilities have been revealed, and Rikka Sakurakawa has stated that the power of ‘Masked’ and its assistants comes from their own spirit abilities, the next step will be the government's research and development of spirit abilities in order to deal with the heinous criminal ‘Masked.’ SERN, which has future intelligence and has already mastered the method of mass-producing spirit ability users, will inevitably be able to gain the upper hand and obtain a large amount of funding, and perhaps… can also take the opportunity to enter the high-level and have the right to determine the future of Sakura Province…”

Yukino Yukinoshita's words were indeed very reasonable.

Now the Sakura Province Police Department's attitude towards strange incidents, or spirit ability users, is very simple.

With “Masked” around, everything will be solved easily.

But what if “Masked” becomes the enemy?

The current Police Department does not have any means to stop the actions of “Masked” and its assistants.

And this massacre at Private Shuchiin Academy, which is enough to shock the world, will also make governments realize the terrifying threat of spirit abilities, just like nuclear weapons. The only way is to launch an arms race targeting spirit abilities.

By the way, it can also make “Masked” suffer endless pursuit, plus the mental pressure of being condemned by the people as a criminal all the time.

“That's not right, Yukino.”

Yui Yuigahama raised a question at this time.

“Since the incident happened in the Reverse World, then the real world will not leave any traces. From the outside world's point of view, those students have only disappeared. Although it's also terrible, it's probably not that simple to put the blame on Yosho.”

“I don't know about that.”

Faced with a question she couldn't answer, Yukino Yukinoshita shook her head very simply without concealing anything.

“Perhaps it can only be done in the Reverse World, or perhaps there was a problem with Yosho's premonition, or perhaps there was an accident in SERN's plan. In short, I can only analyze this much.”

Kagura Shinomiya felt a little lost and bewildered listening to things like the Reverse World, the real world, and SERN, but upon hearing that a massacre would occur within Private Shuchiin, she still tried to think and looked at Yosho and asked.

“Are there any other details in the image?”

Yosho shook his head and replied very simply.

“No, the students at your school died pretty miserably.”

“What about the number of deaths?”

“A lot. The entire campus has become a living hell. Just within my field of vision, there are at least hundreds of corpses. Judging from the bloody smell, there must be at least a thousand deaths.”

“Are there any people we know among them?”
