The Daily Life of Saiki Kusuo in Zoldyck

It might be a bit late to explain now, but Kusuke Saiki, with his understanding of his younger brother since birth and his own super high intelligence, can read his brother's thoughts just by looking at his expression, thus completing a telepathic conversation with a superpowered person!

Kusuke Saiki took Kusuo Saiki in the elevator.

Taking the elevator is a privilege reserved for teachers. If Kusuo Saiki had had this privilege before, he could have gone straight to the ground floor and listened to Meruem's opening speech.

In the elevator, Saiki Kusuke pressed the button for the top floor.

Wait a minute, it's just a high school, why is it 18 stories high? Did it look that tall from the outside?

"Huh, it's that tall, isn't it? Kusuo is so oblivious to his surroundings!"

Is this for real? The first-year high school students are on the 6th floor, and the second and third-year students are below them. What are the 12 floors above used for?

"The clubs have activity rooms now, and I haven't finished exploring all the secrets of this school yet."

The elevator doors opened on the 18th floor, and the rooftop was right in front of us.

Hey, generally speaking, the elevator should take you to the top floor, and then you have to walk up one more step to the rooftop. Whose elevator goes straight to the top floor?

"Don't worry about the details. In fact, if you really want to analyze it, Kusuo is criticizing himself for complaining about the strange house structure!"

Ah, that's true.

The rooftop didn't have the protective netting that often appears in school dramas. Kusuke Saiki walked straight to the edge of the rooftop, sat down, and patted the spot next to him.

"Please sit down, Kusuo."

Do you know that if you fall, you'll plummet eighteen stories?

"It would be a shame to get to such a high place and not enjoy the view from up there. Are you scared?"

Who would be afraid of a mere eighteen-story building? I've never been afraid, not even in space.

Kusuo Saiki sat down to Kusuke Saiki's left.

Eighteen stories above, with no buildings in sight, the wind was strong, and the school below was clearly visible. The new arena was behind the principal's office, and the rooftop was a large flat surface. The sports field was very large. Suddenly, Kusuo Saiki looked back and saw the elementary and junior high school sections, which were only six stories high.

That's a bit too abrupt, so the high school section was originally only six stories high, right?

"Over there, my brother lives over there, by the river..." Saiki Kousuke pointed from afar.

Let's get down to business. Didn't you say you wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk on the rooftop?

"Don't be in such a hurry, let me show you something."

Kusuke Saiki extended his left arm; his wristband was on his right hand, and his left arm was bare. Kusuo Saiki had no idea what he was going to do.

Suddenly, a commotion came from below. A pair of mechanical hands propelled the arm upwards with a force. When it encountered the arm in mid-air, it braked sharply, disassembling and reassembling the various parts to successfully fit the arm.

"Haha, success!"

It looks like something I've seen in a movie.

"The next step is to build a nuclear reactor at the heart of the reactor..."

Simply copying Iron Man won't work!

"Haha, just kidding. If we were to actually do it, based on the energy consumption and supply center, it should be placed in the lower abdomen!"

When the nuclear reactor explodes, you'll explode too.

What's it like to be an ordinary person?

Suddenly we got to the point. But someone already asked this question, so let's not waste time.

"Or what are your life goals now?"

The question is about the death of a superpowered person, and someone else has already asked that question.

However, the answer may have changed.

It's true that I caused trouble for others after becoming an ordinary person.

The sudden loss of superpowers, which had been with him for over 30 years, was very disorienting, and there were many moments when he subconsciously used his superpowers but got nothing.

However, as we get older and more accustomed to being an ordinary person, we become more and more used to it. Eating too many sweets doesn't just lead to weight gain; that's a long-term effect of consuming sweets. Before that, the body will send out warning signals that it's too sweet, and the happiness-inducing sweetness will actually make you nauseous. An ordinary person's body has its own alarm system. If it doesn't understand what its body is saying, it will warn you with stomach pain, and then it will understand next time. An ordinary person getting a fever is also a way to protect themselves. Although a fever of 40 degrees Celsius carries the risk of death for an ordinary person, it's a self-preservation gamble for survival!

There are many similar examples. How can an ordinary person climb six stories? It turns out they can risk climbing water pipes. How can an ordinary person move a 20-ton steel plate? It turns out they can get help from dark creatures. Only by placing them in the position of an ordinary person who absolutely cannot help can one truly observe and experience the lives of ordinary people.

Most of the things that superpowers can do, ordinary people can also do with their intelligence. If you can't do it on your own, you can do it with others.

After repeatedly experiencing such pleasant surprises, Kusuo Saiki exclaimed from the bottom of his heart: Ordinary people are amazing!

It's impressive, and it's also a feeling.

In the ordinary world where there was no way out, he witnessed all kinds of situations, from laughter and tears to the struggles between people who didn't know each other's cards in dangerous situations, to medical students kneeling and crying because pharmacies wouldn't accept their patients. He saw the complexity of people, their desires, their expectations, their resentment and their determination to achieve their goals.

It's not necessarily worse than what you experience in comics and novels.

Ordinary people don't have enough time, and they will always encounter unexpected surprises. If they choose to remain ordinary, will they one day become one of those who both laugh and cry?

The answer is probably yes. If his superpowers are permanently removed, he'll be just an ordinary player. In this game called life, he'll have an ordinary life just like everyone else, powerless to defy fate, constantly searching for his place in the gears of society and within himself.

He knew that ordinary people's lives would involve helplessness, frustration, and unavoidable compromises.

But no matter how comprehensively he considered the possible unexpected events, it could not diminish his expectation for such a life to rise.

“Kusuke.” Saiki Kusuo interlaced his fingers and looked down.

At the bottom of the 18th floor, pedestrians hurried by. Even during the brief 10-minute break between classes, some people would run downstairs to gather. It was only then that Kusuo Saiki realized there was a convenience store downstairs.

People move about with their own purposes, gathering in two or three places to exchange ideas.

“Ordinary people are fine…” Saiki Kusuo said earnestly, his eyes filled with expectation and anticipation.

Kusuke Saiki adjusted the robotic arm without saying a word.

"However, those with superpowers are not bad either."

"?!" Kusuke Saiki looked at his younger brother.

“There are things that 99% of ordinary people in the world can do, and doing them will bring them a sense of accomplishment and happiness. But there are also things that 1% or 0.1% of ordinary people cannot do.”

"From massive tsunamis, meteorite impacts, and volcanic eruptions, to minor injuries like penetrating wounds, car accidents that shatter bones, and hearts that are blown apart..."

"None of these disasters will have a significant impact on humanity as a whole. People will learn from the lessons and avoid the next danger. An ordinary person is a complete system that can adjust itself."

"However, if I have people I want to protect, if I have selfish motives, then when I encounter these disasters..."

"It requires superpowers."

“I can get hurt because of my choices, but I don’t want the people I want to protect, even if they don’t know it, to lose the chance to be saved by me.”

"I need superpowers, Kousuke, that's my future, my answer..."

"Beep—beep—"

The sound came from Kusuke Saiki's mechanical arm, which suddenly twisted and slapped Kusuo Saiki on the back!

Kusuo Saiki was also shocked, and his body, which was already leaning forward on the edge of the rooftop, was suddenly lifted into the air.

"Hey, Kousuke!!" Kusuo Saiki exclaimed in surprise.

The wind whipped Saiki Kusuo's body through the air, and he saw the sky and the edge of the rooftop. Saiki Kusuo did not jump down.

Yes, jumping down would be irrational. Kousuke's shoes are just for added elasticity and cushioning, not some kind of flying rocket... But what should I do!?

"It's better not to move." Kusuke Saiki gripped the edge of the rooftop, his eyes utterly calm. "If he sees you rushing to the rescue, he'll definitely feel relieved. Only a real accident can wake him up."

Beside Kusuke Saiki, Nanami clung to the edge of the rooftop. It dared not show its head, but instead used its X-ray vision to watch the main body fall below.

Yes, raising the building to 18 stories was a result calculated by Kusuo Saiki based on Kusuo Saiki's physical strength, and was hastily constructed by Nanami Neko. Even if Kusuo Saiki falls and doesn't regain his superpowers, he won't actually die.

But you will definitely get hurt.

That is, the moment Kusuo Saiki lands without any protection, Nanko will disappear because of Kusuo Saiki's injury.

Kusuke Saiki placed his hand on the collar around Nanami's neck, and Nanami's X-ray vision was canceled.

Whether she wants to continue existing or has some hidden agenda, Nanmao has no chance to regret it.

His superpowers were erased by Kusuke Saiki.

The wall made a slight cracking sound. Nanmao heard it with her keen hearing, took a step back, and pulled Saiki Kousuke's clothes backward with her mouth.

Whether by accident, intention, or due to a malfunction, Saiki Kousuke's robotic arm has already torn cracks in the wall.

There was no loud thud of a person falling from a great height, but no superhuman appeared beside them as expected.

Kusuke Saiki lowered his head and retreated from the dangerous position on the edge of the rooftop, with Nanami following anxiously beside him.

what happens……

"Sigh, there's nothing we can do about it..." Saiki Kusuke said as he and Nanami Neko entered the elevator.

Many people saw Kusuo Saiki fall.

It started with the alert hunter below. After a brief fall of five stories, people spotted him and called out to each other in distress.

Various gazes were fixed on the person in freefall, but the people living near the junior and senior high school sections did not have strong Nen abilities and could not easily catch someone with their bodies.

The noise from below gradually carried up to the people above and was heard.

However, all the dark creatures received instructions that they only dared to peek at the person falling outside the window but dared not make a move.

On the sixth floor, in Kuroro's office, a door was being installed when three dark creatures suddenly started chatting with him. The tightly drawn curtains prevented him from noticing anything outside the window.

On the fifth floor, in the classroom where Killua and the others were having a heated discussion, Kusuo Saiki, who suddenly saw the person who had just appeared, was stunned for a long time, and what came to his mind was...

Anyway, Nanxiong-ge has teleportation, so what's the point of playing?

On the fourth floor, the student council patrol had just finished their rounds, leaving only a red-haired girl with a semi-circular headdress on either side of her head picking her nose and jealous of the kelp. She widened her eyes the moment she saw someone fly past the window.

On the third floor, the student council president with long black hair, along with the vice president with white curly hair and a bespectacled junior, had already noticed the commotion downstairs. After sensing the abnormality, they also looked up in the direction of the people below.

Before Saiki Kusuo landed.

Just as he was about to reach the third floor, a dark figure flashed past and grabbed him, spinning him around and kicking him against the second-floor wall he was about to hit. The long-haired man converted the force of the fall into a horizontal force, which was partially neutralized by this kick. Taking the point left on the second-floor wall as the origin, the man, holding Saiki Kusuo, flew out of the building in a parabolic trajectory with an extremely high initial velocity. The horizontal direction was uniform linear motion, and the vertical direction was free fall. You can write the equations yourself because there's no time!

The man carried Saiki Kusuo to the ground, landing steadily. He glided briefly on the concrete before jumping back two steps to dissipate all the impact and come to a stop.

Kusuo Saiki opened his eyes.

He couldn't see anything; his face was covered in patches of black hair. Then he heard a familiar voice.

"Xiao Nan, what are you playing?"

There are so many heartfelt thoughts.
