I am in Mihua, and the ladies all like me

In short, there are as many reasons as you want.

But if you want to know more specifically, you should go to the Metropolitan Police Department after you go back in the afternoon and ask...

That's what Serabelle thought.

Click——

Just then, a breeze blew through the forest, and the air current, which seemed quite cold in winter, brought with it the faint sound of some metal parts being pulled.

What was pulled was... the bolt!

In an instant, Serabel noticed the strangeness in the sound of the wind, and her eyes changed, like a beast that was originally leisurely strolling in the mountains and forests, seamlessly switching to a hunting posture, with all the muscles in her body tensed aggressively.

The change in atmosphere seemed to shake even the dust in the air around him.

"……What's wrong?"

Before Reiko Akita could react, she just felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the boy next to her.

Without any explanation, the next moment an arm came from the side and tightly wrapped around the former's shoulders, holding her and about to fall to the ground.

Due to her naturally arrogant and cold personality, Reiko Akiba is actually not used to such close contact with others. In daily life, even if someone she knows puts her arm around her shoulders, she will avoid it in time, let alone being hugged and thrown to the ground like this.

The instinct to deal with danger, which is engraved in human DNA, causes the body to automatically start struggling without the brain thinking.

However, the inexplicable sense of security made Akiba Reiko's instinct ineffective for a while. She was held like a sandbag, motionless, and let her body fall to gravity.

PIU!

The whole landing process was not painful at all. On the one hand, there was Serabelle's protection, and on the other hand, the forest was covered with fallen leaves in winter. In addition, it had been sunny in the past few days, which dried the dead branches and leaves on the surface and formed a perfect cushion.

But the sound of something flying at high speed brushing against the tree trunks in the forest above her head, through the bushes, still made Akiba Reiko tremble all over.

And the soft whisper in her ear by Serabelle, who was pressing her down, further confirmed Reiko Akiba's guess.

"Be careful, someone is shooting at us."

shot?

Hearing this word with her own ears, Akiba Reiko froze completely.

It is human nature to be afraid of death, and no one is immune to the threat of death.

card!

The sound of the bolt being pulled was heard again, and Serabell quickly hugged Reiko Akiba and rolled to the side.

boom!

Their backs had just left the ground when a bullet hole appeared where they had been crawling. The bullet hole had penetrated deeply into the dead branches and leaves on the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

"It's a rifle. The time between aiming and shooting is about three seconds."

After two shots, Serabelle had already analyzed the opponent's approximate data. In addition, due to the various obstacles caused by the complex terrain of the forest, the opponent was at most fifteen meters away from them.

It is true that there is a huge difference between the fifteen meters in the mountains and the fifteen meters on the plain, but the rugged terrain and various obstructions in the mountains can also provide excellent cover for Serabel's advance.

However, this also posed another problem. Even if he could easily rush to the opponent's side and kill him without any damage, Reiko Akiba, who was crawling on the spot, would not be able to dodge the flying bullets.

After all, he is just a singer. No matter how good his ears are, he cannot be as sensitive to the sound of a gun bolt as he is to the melody of music.

Especially if the other party saw that he not only did not run away but instead rushed towards him, it is possible that he would get angry and shoot in the direction of Reiko Akiba.

If the wound hits a vital part, even an ambulance won't be able to get there as it's so far from the city center.

Tsk, trouble...

Serabelle stood up from a half-squat with her hands on the ground, and her eyes moved back and forth between the direction where the bullet came from and Reiko Akiba under her, before decisively choosing the latter.

He pulled up Reiko Akiba's arm and put it on his shoulder, then glanced at the singer's face, which was still beautiful, but her queen's aura had completely disappeared, making her look pale and helpless.

"Retreat first, and run."

"Uh...yeah!"

With life and death at stake, Akitani Reiko had no time to think about it. She closed her mouth, clenched her teeth, and nodded.

Just as the two men stood up and rushed out of the bushes, a flying bullet accurately grazed the boy's shoulder.

Chapter 380 She was heartbroken, she was heartbroken

Reiko Akiba's physical fitness is among the best among women. After all, she has to stand on the stage and sing for two or three hours every time she performs.

However, there is absolutely no comparison with Serabelle.

So during the escape, she was basically being dragged along, running so fast that she almost didn't touch the ground, and she had to use all her strength to barely keep up.

Two minutes later, until there was no more sound of gunfire or plants scratching her body behind her, Serabell finally stopped.

The exhausted Reiko Akiba finally couldn't hold on any longer and sat down on the ground, supporting herself with her hands on the soil beneath her body, looking up and gasping for breath.

“Ha…ha…what the hell was wrong with that guy just now! He actually shot at us like that, was he planning to kill us?!”

"Well, we'll talk about this later."

Serabelle knelt on one knee in front of her, her chest rising and falling slightly while her eyes kept scanning the surroundings vigilantly.

"At least you'd better speak softly now, Miss Qiu Ting. Although he didn't catch up with us when we ran away before, it is possible that he will follow us again after hearing our voices."

"I, I understand..."

When she heard that the other party might catch up with her again, Reiko Akiba's cheeks, which were flushed due to the intense exercise of running, suddenly turned paler.

So she withdrew her gaze from the sky, stopped talking, and calmed her breathing silently.

But just as she lowered her head, her sight inadvertently passed over the boy's shoulder, and a glaring dark red color on the light-colored thickened sweatshirt came into view.

"You are hurt!?"

Reiko Akita's pupils shrank.

All along the way, she was only concerned with escaping, and her attention was fully focused on the ground under her feet to avoid stepping on empty air.

But even so, I almost tripped over tree roots buried under the fallen leaves or sprained my ankle several times, and I didn't even notice when the people around me were injured.

But in comparison, Serabelle's reaction was much more bland.

"Oh, it's nothing. I was just grazed by the bullet. It didn't stay in my body. The bleeding should stop after a while."

"That's not what you say!"

Reiko Akita became inexplicably anxious.

"He was hit by a bullet. If the wound gets infected, it will be very serious! We must go to the hospital immediately..."

"Do you have any medical supplies like gauze and iodine at home?"

Serabelle interrupted her.

Akita Reiko was stunned: "Yes, yes..."

"Then go to your house and bandage it."

"Eh? My home?"

"Well, otherwise it would be a waste of time."

Serabelle glanced down at the spot where the bullet had grazed her, and made light of it as if she were talking about what she had for breakfast.

"If it's a hospital, you won't be able to explain this gunshot wound. Besides, I have other things to do this afternoon."

What do you mean there is something else going on in the afternoon...

Reiko Akiba found this statement simply unbelievable.

"Wake up, you were shot. You didn't fall or break your toe. You were shot! You're still thinking about other things. Can you be nicer to yourself?"

"..."

Speechless.

The silence between the two lasted for about five or six seconds. Serabell suddenly stood up and reached out to Reiko Akiba who was still sitting on the ground.

"Anyway, I'll take you back first."

Reiko Akiba did not take the extended hand, but continued to sit on the ground with her head raised, staring at the boy in front of her with stubborn eyes.

"…Send me back, then what?"

Then?

A question mark popped up in Serabelle's head, and she thought, what else is there? I don't necessarily have to buy you a hamburger to coax you to sleep.

"Then go home, bandage yourself, and do whatever you need to do in the afternoon."

"No."

Reiko Akita flatly refused.

"You have to go to the hospital. You have a gunshot wound. How can you bandage it yourself?"

"Why not..."

Serabelle was helpless.

It's not that he deliberately pretended to be a tough guy and played the victim to gain sympathy, but the "serious gunshot wound" in the eyes of Reiko Akiba was nothing to him. He didn't even need to open the wound to remove the bullet. He just needed to apply some medicine and bandage it up.

To put it bluntly, it's the same as breaking your knee while running.

Have you ever seen anyone who, after bruising his knee, would rush to a tertiary hospital to see a specialist for treatment as if they were facing a serious enemy?

By the time it’s your turn, your injuries will probably have almost recovered.

"I'll go with you!" Reiko Akita was extremely determined.

Shit, there's no hope...

Serabelle didn't want to continue this topic and sighed softly.

"Hurry up and get up. I'll take you back first. What happens next has nothing to do with you. I can handle it myself."

"How can it have nothing to do with me?!"

As if her fighting spirit was rising, Akiba Reiko frowned and raised her voice suddenly.

"You were injured because of me, how could it have nothing to do with me?"

"Okay, let's get out of here first..."

"Go to my house!"

"Yeah, that's right..."

"I'll bandage you!"

"No need, I can do it myself when I get back..."

Serabelle was interrupted before she could finish her words.

"Come to my house and I'll bandage you."

Reiko Akitaba's eyes were extremely serious as she spoke word by word.

"Otherwise we'll go to the hospital."

"?"

How does the saying go? People always compromise. If you want to open a window, others will definitely not agree. But if you say you want to lift the roof off, then they will be willing to open the window.

Originally, Serabel was going to go to Reiko Akiba's house for bandaging, but Reiko Akiba was unwilling and said that she had to go to the hospital, so Serabel lifted the roof and said that she would go home and handle it herself. Then Reiko Akiba had no choice but to agree to open the window and let Serabel go to her house for bandaging.

The reverse is also true.

In order to open the window, both parties lifted up each other's roof, and finally they tacitly opened the same window in the same position.

"That's fine," said Serabelle.

"Ah."

Seeing that they had successfully reached a consensus, Reiko Akiba, who was sitting on the ground, raised her hand, held the hand extended by the young man, gently pulled her up on the spot, and brushed the dust off her butt.

It must be said that Serabelle and the other two were quite lucky.
