The Knight of the Second Generation of Demons Re-enacts

Watching the two people disappear around the corner of the corridor, Hikigaya Hachiman snorted coldly, then looked at Yukinoshita Yukino who seemed to be preparing to go back to her room to sleep.

"Hey, is it really okay for you to keep doing this?"

"what do you mean?"

Yukinoshita Yukino stopped and turned around to look at Hikigaya Hachiman.

"When I came here before, you forced me to stay and clean up. Now you are meddling in that brat's business. Although it seems a little strange to me, shouldn't you focus on investigating your family's affairs? Why do you always have to do unnecessary things?"

"Extra things?"

Yukinoshita's tone paused slightly, and there was a hint of different emotion in her eyes when she looked at the other person.

"Of course I have my own considerations. If something really happened to my sister and the others, from the time I learned that my family was missing to the time I left for Japan, it would have been too late for me to save them. On the contrary, if they are still alive now, they don't lack that much time. Rather than being too aggressive and putting myself in danger, it is better to investigate step by step and do what I can. This is the best option."

As she said this, she glanced at Hikigaya Hachiman again.

"It's you, Hikigaya-kun. Although your tone towards everyone has never been very good, your attitude was really too bad when you were talking to that child. Did that child say something that concerned you?"

"…I just can't stand the naive little brat."

Hikigaya Hachiman was silent for a moment, and changed the subject as if to avoid the topic.

"By the way, let's change our approach to the investigation tomorrow. If we continue investigating like we did today, we probably won't get any results."

"Indeed, you seemed to want to tell me this before. Do you have any other ideas?"

Yukinoshita did not choose to expose Hikigaya's evasion, but just continued asking questions according to his words. The former was happy to see this and told him the plan he had thought of before.

"Ah, instead of wasting time like this, why don't we just sneak into the Intelligent Brain Company to investigate. As long as we find a poor guy who looks easy to bully tomorrow and steal his work badge, we can sneak in directly, right?"

……

"Ah sneeze!"

Chen Shi touched his nose, which began to itch for no apparent reason, and waved to Nishimiya Naoko, who looked concerned.

"Will Ophino catch a cold again?"

"I don't know. I don't think I have a cold. I feel pretty good now. Compared to this..."

As he spoke, he looked down at the blonde woman who was sleeping in the room. Seeing this, Nishimiya Glass also looked at the woman who had just been transformed into the same type as them not long ago.

"Has she really become Ophio? Will we die like Mr. Toda in the future?"

Questions popped up in the girl's mind one after another. Out of trust in Chen Shi, she confided her concerns to this reliable young man without reservation.

However, even Chen Shi could not give an answer that would reassure Nishimiya Naoko.

At this moment, he is also troubled by these problems.

To some extent, the pressure that Chen Shi has to bear in order to correctly guide Nishimiya Naoko and protect her is no less than that of the girl.

As his mind was in a complicated mess, the young man suddenly thought of a certain person.

The one that the intelligent lady always talks about seems to be secretly directing all the existence of Orphino.

"Don't worry, Nitro."

He reached out and patted the girl's shoulder, trying his best to force a smile to comfort her.

"I will go meet the president of Zhinao Company tomorrow and try to get the truth about Orphino from him. Before I come back, I'll ask you to take care of this lady."

928: Caught in the act

Iron Fist Invincible: Oh oh, with this development, does it mean that Chen Shi will officially meet Hikigaya and the others tomorrow?

Accountant Ishigami: Will it be that fast? Looking at the previous situations of these two groups, I feel that it is more likely that they will just miss it tomorrow.

Mr. Pan: Is my other self going to steal the company's ID card with Hikigaya-kun? Oh, it always makes me feel uncomfortable.

Pink Dumpling: It’s okay, Xiaoxue, this is also to find out clues about your family. We are forced to do this!

Mr. Pan: Is it my illusion? I always feel that Yuigahama-san looked a little happy when she found out that we might steal something.

ZIO Second Generation: Now all the protagonists have cheated on their children, how can we not be happy?

Pink Dumpling: How, how is that possible? I don’t think that!

The dead fish eyes of the Great Sensei: I have no opinion.

Nayako: Xswl, Kamen Rider stole the head of Ophiino, why did I have such a strange dream?

White Rabbit: Sometimes, when Kamen Rider turns bad, he is indeed more terrifying than a monster.

Fever Big Cat: Do you remember the beating from your invincible father?

Super High School Level Detective: No matter what the result is, I should be able to meet the president of Zhinao Company next, right? I am still a little curious about the attitude of this president.

Rebellious Lu Zhishen: I am the same, very curious about what the ultimate goal of Zhinao Company is? Although Ophiinuo can increase the number of his people by killing people, this efficiency is too slow no matter how you look at it.

Rebellious Lu Zhishen: At present, when the number of Orphinos is still relatively small, their crimes may be suppressed by the financial resources and connections of Zhinao Company. However, if they continue to develop at this rate, they will soon be unable to be concealed.

Filming the death: Yes, after all, even the exaggerated awakening method of my sister appeared. Although those people deserved to die, so many people died at once, it's a pity that the intelligent brain company could suppress it.

L: No, at present, the main activities of Zhinao Company are concentrated in Tokyo. Even if there are Orphinhos in Chiba, most of them are sent by Zhinao Company from Tokyo. From this point, it can be seen that Zhinao Company's influence on other regions is not strong. However, the police in Chiba still took many unreasonable actions. I guess it is not only Zhinao Company that is behind this, but the official forces also want to conceal the existence of Orphinhos.

Long-term vegetarian: In other words, there may be a third-party force representing the official authorities appearing in the future?

L: This possibility cannot be ruled out. Of course, it is also possible that the official has long been infiltrated by Zhinao Company. It depends on the specific situation of Zhinao Company's senior management.

【Amid the heated discussions among the audience, time quickly came to the next day.

Chen Shi, who had been worried all the time, hardly slept well last night. He hastily took a few bites of the breakfast prepared by Nishimiya Naoko in the early morning and went out to the Intelligent Brain Company without stopping.

Without spending too much effort, Chen Shi found Ms. Zhinao in the company and put forward his request to her.

"You want to see the president?"

The sudden request made the fashionably dressed girl feel a little surprised. She looked at the serious-looking black-haired young man with interest, and a playful smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of her mouth.

As the liaison for all the newcomers, she had naturally been paying attention to the whereabouts of the two original Orphinos, Chen Shi and Nishimiya Shoko, in recent days, so it was natural for her to know that Toda Eiichi died in front of Chen Shi yesterday.

In her opinion, the scene of Orphino's death had an impact far greater than human death for other members of the same tribe. In their eyes, the blue flame was a symbol of death, which would ruthlessly take away everything of Orphino, so they instinctively felt fear.

In the past, many people like Chen Shi who were as determined as Ophiino eventually gave up their persistence as human beings after witnessing similar scenes.

But Chen Shi showed a completely different state. Although Ms. Intelligent Brain also smelled the scent of fear in him, that bottom line still existed. Even though it was a little shaky, it still seemed to keep burning as if to fight against the fear.

Such a special Orpheino really aroused the interest of Ms. Zhinao.

"Mr. Chen Shi, is there anything you don't understand? I thought Mr. Toda had fulfilled his duties as a mentor very well."

"Do not."

Thinking back to the man who faced death calmly in front of him, Chen Shi's expression became complicated.

"Mr. Toda did fulfill his duty as a mentor and taught me a lot, but I still feel that is not the only way for Ophino to survive."

Chen Shi looked at Ms. Intelligent Computer, her golden pupils were as clear as a mirror.

"Why do we have to fight humans? Even if we have evolved, we are still human. I think there must be a way for Orphino and humans to live in peace. For this reason, I think I must meet with the president. Only after I truly understand everything about Orphino can I find the answer."

"Haha~ What a cute idea."

Covering her mouth and chuckling, Ms. Zhinao neither affirmed Chen Shi's statement nor completely denied it.

"Although I really want to introduce such a lovely you to the president, unfortunately, the president is not in the company today. He is dealing with the legacy issues left by the previous president."

"not here?"

Seeing the disappointment on Chen Shi’s face, Ms. Intelligent Brain chuckled for a while, then reached into her chest pocket, took out a card, and handed it to Chen Shi.

"Don't be so disappointed. Although I don't know when the president will be back, he did leave some tips before he left for newcomers like Mr. Chen Shi who are full of curiosity."

Chen Shi subconsciously took the card handed to him and looked at it.

This card was about the size of his palm and was made of some unknown metal. Apart from the logo of Zhinao Company, there was no other useful information on it.

After fiddling with the card for a while, Chen Shi looked at the card and suddenly remembered the smart phone that Toda Eiichi gave him yesterday. There seemed to be a groove on it that could be used to fill a card.

So he took out his cell phone and, as expected, successfully put the card in it.

The phone's screen flickered, and soon a short text appeared in the center.

"Waiting for the sleeping king to wake up?"

Chen Shi looked at Ms. Intelligent Brain in confusion, hoping that she could interpret the meaning of this sentence for him.

But the latter just smiled and shrugged, saying helplessly that he could do nothing to help this time.

"Well, alright. If the president comes back later, please let me know, Ms. Intelligent Brain."

"Okay~"

Chen Shi sighed, and finally could only keep this riddle-like and human words in mind. He decided to go back and see the current situation of Nishimiya Glass and the lady before making other plans.

——I don’t know if the lady has woken up?

After saying goodbye to Ms. Zhinao, Chen Shi walked out of Zhinao Company with a melancholy mood.

However, what he didn't notice was that on the opposite side of the road, two black heads popped out from behind a telephone pole one after another, and the dog watched him stealthily as he got into his car.

"Hehe~ That guy looks easy to deal with, so let's pick him!"

"Uh, are we really going to do this, Hikigaya?"

"You're asking me now, but didn't you agree yesterday?"

“I kind of regret it now.”

Looking at the young man who gave people a very innocent feeling, and thinking about what the two of them were going to do next, Yukinoshita Yukino's conscience began to ache slightly.

However, Hikigaya Hachiman felt no guilt at all about this.

"Okay, hurry up and drive to catch up, or you'll lose us."

As he spoke, Hikigaya Hachiman jumped onto the back seat of the Mobile Pegasus and waved in front of Yukinoshita Yukino, who was hesitant to speak. His extremely skilled look made Yukinoshita feel even more regretful for a moment. 】

Mr. Mori: What? I still didn’t meet that president! Isn’t that a riddle? Is that president a chuunibyou?

Dark Flame Master: Uh, probably not, maybe?

FAFA0: Kal'tsit, please translate this, what does this mean?

I know it all: Want to cool off on the bridge again?
