Knight Asylum

Chapter 69: Humans are really old-fashioned

Soon, the physical education teacher with thick eyebrows and big eyes brought back three student photos and handed them to Red. One of them was of Takashi Mai, who had a ponytail and a slightly gloomy look between her brows, and looked like she had a lot on her mind. The high school girls in the other two photos looked more cheerful or heartless. One had long ponytails and the other had slightly curly medium-short hair.

"What are their names? Where are they now?" Red put away the photos.

"Ha... the one who speaks very slowly and makes people feel at ease is Hamamura Miyo. The one who speaks very directly and squints at people, and speaks in a way that is both true and false, and the one who makes people laugh to death is Ise Ayaka. As for the location," the physical education teacher pinched the bridge of his nose, "it could be in a shopping mall, a donut shop, or an arcade."

"..."

Red hesitated for a while before saying, "I feel like it's all thanks to you."

The physical education teacher just shook his head and said, "I'll leave it to you. Xingxiu District is always in chaos."

"It's okay, I just need to rest."

Reid smiled, supported the mobile Pegasus, and drove away from Amanokawa High School before getting in and starting the engine.

Considering the safety of students, schools below the university level are all built far away from prosperous areas such as Xingxiu District. There are no direct buses and subways between the two, and students have to transfer multiple times. Tianzhichuan High School is a semi-boarding school, so unless your residence is near Tianzhichuan High School, you must stay in the dormitory. It is not surprising that it is impossible for a female high school student to get lost in Xingxiu District during the school day.

Considering that his identity was somewhat delicate, on the way to the Xingxiu District, Red called Enbe through the terminal on the mobile Pegasus.

"A high school girl?"

"What's wrong?" Red keenly noticed that Embe's tone was a little strange.

"Red, you are not a prisoner on parole, so you don't have to report everything. You can act more freely. We trust your judgment, but...ah - the female high school students in [S.L] are quite powerful," Enbei sighed and said, "You'd better be careful."

Red couldn't help but laugh, "Could it be possible to eat people?"

"Many female high school students are keen on paid dating with weirdos."

"cough--"

Reid coughed heavily, his expression was awkward and he didn't know what to say. He hesitated for a long time before he uttered a weak complaint.

"I am a resident outside of [S.L] and I am old-fashioned. So, are you really okay?"

"Who knows, but they think this is cool. Ah~ I can understand it. I used to do some boring things because I thought it was cool. Anyway, although it is not within our authority, since Amanokawa's teacher has asked for it, let's help. But don't let those high school girls eat you up."

It was a rare moment for Enbei to make a joke.

"It's really scary."

Red smiled and hung up the call.

It took Red nearly forty minutes to get from Tianzhichuan High School to Xingxiu District. Including the time spent on going to Tianzhichuan High School, it was already half past ten. As soon as Red arrived in Xingxiu District, he saw the towering buildings and walls. The area destroyed by his battle with Gamego happened to be next to Xingxiu District. As long as it was expanded a little, this most prosperous area of ​​[S·L] would become a ruin. According to Embe, in fact, some buildings in Xingxiu District had suffered different damages due to the impact of the aftermath, and were in danger of collapse and tilting.

But even though Selvi Turia made this statement, the Star District was still crowded with people, and humans and monsters could be seen walking side by side everywhere. While looking for a parking space, Red also saw the Star Station, which was surrounded by guardrails and under maintenance.

It took Red ten minutes to find a parking lot. Although he didn't think Mobile Pegasus would listen to him, Red still tapped Mobile Pegasus's goggles and warned him, "I paid for the parking fee, don't run around, okay!"

After giving the warning, Red couldn't help but hold his forehead.

“I actually talked to a motorcycle.”

The Mobile Pegasus automatically shut down, and no one knew whether it really agreed or was just doing it to get it over with, but Red assumed that the Mobile Pegasus agreed, and left the parking lot carrying Takatera Mai's old backpack. Based on the clues provided by the physical education teacher, he first found Hungry, the most discussed donut shop on the Internet.

"Excuse me..."

"Ah, here comes a cute boy. Do you want to try the colorful donuts we first launched?"

Red just took out the photo and saw the Hungry manager, who was wearing female shop assistant's clothes but looked like a man, twisted his body and walked in front of Red with a girlish posture. He picked up a colorful donut and brought it towards Red's mouth, but what was closer to Red than the donut was the manager's face.

Although his scalp was tingling, Red still politely reached out to stop the store manager from getting any closer, and held up the photo of Takadera Mai and the other two, "Excuse me, I'm here to look for someone. Excuse me, have you seen these three female high school students? They skipped school today."

"Ah la - aren't these Ise-chan and Hamamura-chan? Is this a photo of them from the past? They are so pitiful, just like flowers with all their petals plucked off."

The store manager held up the side of her face with a look of distress. If a normal girl had made such a pose and expression, Red would probably feel empathy, but the store manager was a man, and his face looked like a real man. Even Red couldn't hold back the distressed pose and expression.

However, with this attitude, they probably won't cooperate.

Red was a little worried. The Hungry store manager in front of him looked like the dreamy type who would protect those high school girls.

"Hmm--Have you seen them today?"

"If you kiss me, I'll tell you." The store manager raised his hand and tapped his cheek. Without waiting for Red to answer, he immediately covered his face and shyly twisted his body left and right. "Ah~ You don't really think I would say that."

Red covered his chest and coughed. Just like that, he suffered internal injuries.

"Well - although I don't like them to have all their petals pinched off, I don't like it even more when someone treats them as decorations, picking them and throwing them on the roadside. You look like a good guy." The store manager turned around and packed up the colorful donuts and threw them to Red. "They came here this morning and said they wanted to play in the Xingxiu District for the whole day. Now, they should be near the mall."

Looking at the girlish donut in his arms, Reid had a subtle expression and did not move immediately. "Um... is there any way to get them back to school without making them angry?"

"They hate school and no matter how sweetly you talk to them, if you mention sending them back to school, they get mad."

"I hated school when I was my age, too," Reid said, not surprised at all, sighing helplessly, "but their teacher is worried."

"Ah~ That guy with thick eyebrows~ Thick eyebrows~"

The store manager raised his hand and gestured at his eyebrows. Because it was so vivid, Red couldn't help laughing, but immediately straightened his face and said, "If they are caught again this time, they will be expelled from school."

"This is really distressing," the manager tilted his head with his chin on his head and winked at Red.

Blink wink.

Blink wink.

Unable to bear the manager's expression that looked like a spoiled child but was actually a mental terror, she turned her face away and said, "Then you should have persuaded them in the morning."

"That won't work. They are my customers. Please do me a favor and give them some coupons." The store manager actually took out a stack of coupons from his pocket. "They will probably spend all their money and have no money for lunch. Then they will definitely find someone who looks honest and easy to manipulate and force them to have lunch. These coupons can probably offset some of their losses."

"Normally speaking, shouldn't the bill be free?" Reid took the girlish discount coupon and shook it.

"Well - as compensation, I can kiss you, mua - this is just a deposit, ada - this is the first time I do this kind of thing."

As she said that, the manager blew Red a kiss and turned her back to Red with a shy look on her face.

Rhett, cracked.

Chapter 70 Do I look honest? !

After saying goodbye to the manager of hungry, Red went to what the manager said was the largest department store in Xingxiu District. During the visit, Red flipped through the discount coupons given by the manager. The discount was quite large. Considering the number of discount coupons and Hungry's reputation, in a sense, it was indeed very generous.

After taking another look at the colorful donuts in his hand, Red hesitated and still didn't eat them. It's not that they didn't smell good, but the store manager's flying kiss was too destructive. Maybe he wouldn't have an appetite until the evening.

"But...isn't this department store a bit too big?"

Red raised his head. The department store went straight into the sky with no end in sight. It was almost impossible to find two energetic high school girls wandering around here.

Just when Red was worrying about how to find someone, the voice of Hungry's manager sounded in his ears.

[They will probably spend all their money and have no money for lunch, then they will definitely find someone who looks honest and easy to manipulate and force them to have lunch.]

After a moment of silence, Red turned to face the window. Looking at his translucent figure in the window, Red adjusted his clothes with some confidence.

"No matter how you think about it..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Red smelled a fragrance and saw two young and beautiful figures in the window. Before Red could react, they enthusiastically hugged Red's arms from the left and right.

"Brother! Brother! You look like you have a lot of free time. Do you want to play with us?"

"That's very interesting~"

The girls were laughing carefree and it was hard to get angry at them, but Red felt really fucked up because the ones hugging him were Ise Ayaka and Hamamura Miyo. If the manager of Hungry had said, "They will definitely find someone who looks honest and easy to trick and trick them into giving him lunch," he would probably be happy that he found these two truant high school girls so quickly.

But now he was immersed in the sadness that he seemed very gullible and easy to manipulate. Almost subconsciously, Red pulled out his arm and turned away.

"I'm very busy right now—"

After saying that, Red felt a little regretful. Although Takadera Mai was not there, Ise Ayaka and Hamamura Midori probably knew where Takadera Mai was. Moreover, he had promised the physical education teacher and the manager of Hungry to bring Ise Ayaka and Hamamura Midori back to Amanokawa High School. What would he do if he left now!

But before Reid had taken a few steps, he felt his shoulders sink, followed by the softness and breathing sounds unique to a young girl.

"Don't say that, little brother. You've already written on my face that I'm bored right now," the slowly speaking Hamamura Midori raised her pink-manicured fingers and gently drew circles on Reid's arm. Both her tone and her movements were like a feather, stirring up the little restlessness in people's hearts.

Compared to Hamamura Miyo's slow and leisurely teasing, Ise Ayaka's movements were much rougher. "Really, if you're a man, don't be so hesitant. That's why you come to the department store to shop alone."

After being pulled back and forth like this, Red immediately understood why Embe was saying that today's female high school students are so amazing.

"Judging from your school uniforms, you should be students of Amanokawa High School," Reid raised his hands helplessly.

Although the skirt had been shortened to a dangerous degree, with many decorations added, and the lining tied in a knot above the waist to reveal the navel, the model of the Amanokawa High School uniform could still be barely seen.

"Yes~"

"That's great. I want to ask you about someone. Do you know her?" Reid immediately took out a photo of Takashi Mai at Xingxiu Station from his pocket.

"Um-ah~ Xiao Wu," Hamamura Miyo said in a slow and anxious tone, "Brother, do you want to meet her? Sure, we are friends with Xiao Wu~"

"It's terrible that I secretly took pictures of high school girls, hum——" Ise Ayaka crossed her arms across her chest and shook her twin ponytails vigorously.

"This angle is surveillance, Ayaka," Hamamura Miyo stretched out her hand to take the photo from Reid's hand, and raised her head back, "Come to think of it, brother, the bag you're carrying seems to be Xiao Wu's. Hmm, no wonder she's been in a bad mood these past two days, so brother, are you here to look for Xiao Wu? Hey~ brother, you're really a good person. Now, no one would go around Xingxiu District just to return a backpack."

Ise Ayaka blinked her eyes, let out an "ah", turned her face away, and stopped talking. Her ears turned a little red.

"That's great to hear," Red said with a sigh of relief, "Then I'd like you to return this backpack to Takadera Mai."

"Okay~ But you have to treat us to lunch first," Hamamura Miyo hugged Red's arm, put her face on Red's shoulder and smiled, "right - Ayaka."

Ise Ayaka blinked her eyes, raised her hand and gently twirled her ponytail with her fingers before mumbling, "This is not impossible."

"Okay - I'll treat you to some sweets..."

Reid, who had been mentally prepared, was about to touch the discount coupon in his pocket when he saw Hamamura Miyo tilt her head with a pure face, "I want to eat at a Michelin three-star restaurant."

"Huh?" Reid's hands trembled.

Even Ise Ayaka widened her eyes and blinked desperately at Hamamura Midori.

"Don't worry, brother. You are a good person. I won't rip you off." Hamamura Miyo said slowly, "It's only a few hundred yuan per person for a set meal."

Seeing Hamamura Midori say this, Ise Ayaka had no choice but to put her hands on her hips and said, "What's the matter? Don't you even have this little money?"

The corner of Red's mouth twitched, and he raised his hand to scratch the back of his head, sighing helplessly, "Okay, okay--"

"Yeah~Yeah~"

Hamamura Midori raised two fingers, made a "yeah" gesture, and shook them left and right.

Red shook his head. If it were usual, he would probably feel pained. Each person only costs a few hundred yuan, and Michelin three stars! How could it be only a few hundred yuan, and there were three people? But fortunately, just yesterday, he got a huge sum of money. He defeated Gamego and got the highest value chip from Gamego. According to U, this chip is legal and belongs only to him.

Red puffed out his chest confidently and strode towards the Michelin three-star hotel that Hamamura Midori mentioned, led by Hamamura Midori and Ise Ayaka.

Just a Michelin three star restaurant.

Until Hamamura Midori and Ise Ayaka openly crossed over the symbol of fangs and evil spirits.

"Wait a minute!!! The Michelin three-star hotel you are going to is in the territory of the Tooth Ghost Clan!!!"

Chapter 71: Three Stars of the Tooth Ghost Clan, the Corpses Found

The original law in this world, which has continued to this day, is to eat and be eaten.

Relying on their own wisdom, humans have successfully climbed to the top of the food chain and divided all creatures in the world into humans and other animals. Humans are always the eaters. Even giants like blue whales can only survive by relying on the kindness of humans and avoid extinction. However, the appearance of [S·L] monsters broke this situation.

Among them, the Tooth Ghost Clan is one of the most special monsters.

Ofino is a monster born from a dead man's resurrection, and the Tooth Ghost Clan is like the incarnation of Cain in the Bible, the original sinner. In front of the Tooth Ghost Clan, humans can only be victims forever, because the Tooth Ghost Clan feeds on the life force of humans, and the Tooth Ghost Clan is a race with a very strict ruling class. What is even more horrifying is that when the Tooth Ghost Clan completely appeared in front of humans, humans suddenly discovered that the history of the Tooth Ghost Clan is as long as human history, and traces of the Tooth Ghost Clan can be found everywhere, and the true identities of many historical celebrities are Tooth Ghost Clan.

With the emergence of [S·L], the king of the Yagui tribe moved all the Yagui tribe members to [S·L] and designated one of the most prosperous areas as the territory of the Yagui tribe. The governments of various countries could only agree out of fear of the terrifying power of the king of the Yagui tribe, but they also erected various warning signs around the Yagui tribe and marked the territory of the Yagui tribe as a human restricted area on the map. Trespassing without permission and being eaten by the Yagui tribe was equivalent to running into the wild and dancing in front of a group of lions. They deserved to die.

Of course, what this world has no shortage of is mysteriously confident people. Many internet celebrities went to the territory of the Yagui tribe openly and carried out various kinds of publicity, and governments of various countries rarely made any statements. Over the past twelve years, the territory of the Yagui tribe has even become a must-see attraction when visiting [S·L].

But Red said that he had no interest in dancing with lions. People outside [S·L] were curious because they had never been hunted by the Fang Ghosts and had never seen humans being eaten by the Fang Ghosts. Maybe the citizens in [S·L] were secretly mocking the people outside [S·L] for treating the Fang Ghosts' territory as a tourist attraction.

That's what Red thought until he saw Ise Ayaka and Hamamura Midori walking boldly into the territory of the Yagi clan.

"Wait a minute!" Red grabbed Ise Ayaka and Hamamura Midori by the back of their collars and pulled them back, "I have never heard of entering the territory of the Yagui tribe!"

"Huh? Young man, haven't you heard of First? It's the world-renowned legendary Michelin restaurant where you can reserve a seat just by having money," Midori Hamamura took out her cell phone and shook it at Reid.

"Really - what are you afraid of? It's so embarrassing!" Ise Ayaka shook off Reid's right hand in annoyance and distanced herself from him.

After Ise Ayaka said this, Red noticed that they were not the only ones here. The street leading to the Yagui clan's territory, which was forbidden for humans, was just like an ordinary busy street. Many people walked in and many people walked out. In fact, if he hadn't seen the Yagui clan's logo, he really wouldn't have been able to associate this place with the Yagui clan's territory.

"Brother, if you're scared, forget about helping us. We can go eat by ourselves," Hamamura Miyo blinked, "even though we don't have any money."

Today's high school girls are amazing.

"Okay, okay, but you must not run around, okay?" Red patted his forehead, let out a helpless breath, and nodded in agreement.

"Let's go~"

Hamamura Miyo smiled and pulled Red's arm.

Under the leadership of Hamamura Midori and Ise Ayaka, Red entered the forbidden area for humans, the territory of the Yagi clan.

Because the Yagui tribe is no different from humans in daily life, the Yagui tribe’s territory looks like an ordinary prosperous area.
