Kira Yoshikage, stepping on the blond-haired man's head, glanced at the slick-haired man standing to the side, mouth agape and staring in disbelief:

So, are you going to do it yourself, or should I help you?

"I can do it myself, I can do it myself!"

The slick-haired man hurriedly lay down on the ground, perhaps because the ground was too cold, and he also rested his head on the already sleeping blond man.

"Wait a minute, I have a question for you."

Kira Yoshikage frowned slightly and said in a cold voice.

"Okay, okay, brother, what do you want to ask?"

The man with the slicked-back hair hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground with a fawning expression.

Yoshikage Kira frowned and asked:

Why are there so many bad guys around here?

Although Yuno Mya deliberately tried to bait me yesterday, the prerequisite for fishing is that there are fish.

If there are no bad guys around here, then there's no way any bad guys will take the bait.

"Ah, brother, didn't you know?"

The man with the slicked-back hair paused for a moment, while Kira Yoshikage's gaze grew even colder:

"Didn't your teacher teach you not to answer questions with questions?"

The man with the slicked-back hair felt a jolt run through him and hurriedly said:

"If you ask why, it's because this area is the apartment complex of Shuchiin Academy! For delinquents like us, if we can successfully date a student from Shuchiin Academy, we can brag about it for a long time in our group."

"Even if I can't get a chance to soak, it's okay. It's good to get something for nothing."

The man with the slicked-back hair caught a glimpse of the girl standing behind Yoshikage Kira out of the corner of his eye and asked cautiously:

"Big brother, can I lie down now?"

Yoshikage Kira said calmly:

"Lie down."

"Oh, alright."

The man with the slicked-back hair skillfully lay down on the ground, tilted his head, and pretended to be dead.

Kira Yoshikage turned around, glanced at the girl whose lips were slightly parted, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, and said calmly:

"You heard it too, there are a lot of thugs around here, so be careful."

"..."

Shiina Mahiru bit her lip, hesitant to speak, but Kira Yoshikage left the alley without waiting for her reply.

The girl with long flaxen hair hesitated for a moment, glanced at the delinquent on the ground, and hurriedly followed in his footsteps.

Japan's working-age population, aged 15-64, is approximately 83 million.

Even on average, the population aged 15-20 is around ten million.

However, the actual figures should be lower because Japan has a severe aging population with a high proportion of elderly people, resulting in an inverted triangle-shaped population pyramid.

How many of these ten million people are delinquent youths?

Although there are no specific statistics from schools and the community, the police do!

For example, Japan has 300,000 police officers, but there is a special position called juvenile police, which are police officers specifically targeting juvenile offenders, and there are about 8,000 of them.

How many delinquent teenagers were educated and mentored by juvenile police officers in 2000?

The answer is 885,775.

Although most of them only smoked and drank and did not involve serious crimes, a considerable number of them were juvenile offenders.

Japan commits approximately 60 criminal offenses annually, with 8 of them occurring in Tokyo.

Of the 80,000 crimes committed in Tokyo, more than 4000 involved juvenile offenders.

There are 4 delinquent teenagers who were simply warned by the police without committing any criminal offenses.

Furthermore, due to the protection of the Juvenile Law, in Japan, only those who commit crimes at the age of 14 or older are considered juvenile offenders. Those under the age of 14 are not punished and at most go to juvenile detention centers. Those under the age of 12 do not even need to go to juvenile detention centers.

During the 1970s, the peak of delinquency in Japan, delinquents even formed organizations that controlled all junior high schools in Tokyo and established branches in major cities across the country. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they dominated the entire country.

You might think Crows Zero is a made-up story, but it's actually a documentary.

Therefore—

Yoshikage Kira pressed his thumb.

He's doing something to rid society of a scourge!

Yoshikage Kira truly believes the police should present him with a banner as encouragement.

But that would attract too much attention, so I decided against it. Being an unsung hero is just fine too.

"Kira-kun."

Once they entered the alley, Shiina Mahiru quickly caught up with Kira Yoshikage and whispered:

"Thank you."

The girl looked up, her eyes sincere, but her feelings were somewhat complicated.

On the one hand, she did not think Yoshikage Kira was a delinquent.

Both the teacher's evaluation and her judgment held this view.

But at first, she was actually a little scared and worried—

What if the hero saving the damsel in distress was just an act? What if Kira-kun and those delinquents are actually in cahoots? Although her encounter with Kira Yoshikage was accidental, or even something she did by following him, we can't rule out the possibility that those delinquents knew Kira Yoshikage, or that it was all an act.

This isn't just her paranoia; there are simply too many similar cases in Japan!

The most famous case is the high school girl murder case, which shocked Japan and was known as the worst case in Japanese history.

The case stemmed from the fact that the main perpetrators, A and D, encountered the victim during a robbery and spontaneously staged a "hero saves the damsel in distress" scenario, ultimately imprisoning the victim.

The victim was imprisoned, assaulted, beaten, and humiliated for 41 days, ultimately suffering death from torture. Dozens of people were involved in the abuse, but only seven were ultimately punished.

Among them, E, F, and G, who were accomplices, were merely transferred to a juvenile detention center.

Even the main culprits A, B, C, and D were not sentenced to heavy penalties. The latter three were given indefinite sentences of 5 to 10 years, and A's sentence was only 20 years—this was the result of a retrial and additional sentences. The original punishment was even lower, and the Japanese government was not even willing to give a symbolic life imprisonment.

It is said to be symbolic because, under the protection of the Juvenile Law, even if a juvenile offender is sentenced to life imprisonment, he may only need to be released in less than ten years.

With so many cautionary tales to follow, it's really hard for Shiina Mahiru not to be on high alert.

But no matter what, saying thank you is a must.

"You're welcome."

Yoshikage Kira nodded politely. He could see the girl's nervousness and doubt. Without lingering, he walked straight past her into the apartment building.

Shiina Mahiru's lips twitched a few times, but she ultimately chose to remain silent and followed Kira Yoshikage upstairs.

click!

In front of apartment 502, Yoshikage Kira reached into his pocket but couldn't find his keys.

Just as I was about to let the big pink cat open the door from the inside, the door was suddenly opened.

"Welcome back, Kira-kun!"

A blonde girl wearing a men's shirt opened the door, revealing a gentle and sweet smile.

But she soon realized something was wrong, because there was not only Kira Yoshikage at the door, but also a flaxen-haired girl with her mouth slightly open in surprise.

"Ah ah!"

Yumiko Miura gasped in surprise, hurriedly shrank back into the room, and slammed the door shut—a classic case of burying one's head in the sand.

Kira Yoshikage remained silent for a moment, then glanced at the girl beside him who was curiously observing him with her caramel-colored eyes.

Shiina Mahiru immediately bowed and apologized:

"Oh, sorry, I won't tell anyone!"

"never mind."

Yoshikage Kira sighed.

He originally wanted to restart, but after thinking about it, he realized it wasn't necessary, since Shiina Mahiru lived next door to him, and at the same frequency as Yumiko and Haimeng.

Even if they never go out, they will eventually be discovered by Shiina Mahiru.

We can't just restart every time, can we?

It's possible, but really unnecessary.

It's very troublesome.

click!

With the sound of a lock being opened, the girl, who had been keeping her head down like an ostrich, silently opened the apartment door.

Snapped!

The door closed, and Shiina Mahiru leaned silently against the door panel, her pretty face flushed.

so.

That wasn't some kind of short film, right?

She's not some kind of escort!

Because she knows that girl!

Unlike students from different classes, introverted nerds often lack communication with each other, while students from different classes who are popular and outgoing communicate very closely.

As the core member of the largest "normie" group in Class B, she also interacts with "normie" groups from other classes. And the blonde girl who opened the door for Kira-kun's house—she would never mistake her for Miura Yumiko from the "normie" group in Class C!

Without a doubt, Miura Yumiko was also a student at Shuchiin Academy and a classmate of Kira Yoshikage.

So, aren't they a legitimate couple?!

In other words, she eavesdropped on the couple for two whole nights, mistakenly thought that Yoshikage Kira was watching porn, and even confronted him about it.
