Knight Asylum

I immediately put down my hand again.

Da Dao Ke Ji crossed his arms over his chest, frowned, thought for a while, and then slowly said, "Could it be... on Kusaga Masato?"

"Masato Soka?" Reid tilted his head and blinked blankly before suddenly realizing, "Come to think of it, you seemed to have said that Yoshinaga Miyuki and Masato Soka were working together, but is it really possible that Yoshinaga Miyuki would give her golden fruit to Masato Soka? She should just be using Masato Soka and Meteor Academy..."

Kiryuu Sento also nodded and agreed with Reid's opinion, "Incitement, using others to protect yourself, just like plants bloom beautiful flowers to reproduce, emitting fragrance to attract butterflies and bees. This is the fighting method of Yoshinaga Miyuki as the Orchid Undead Beast."

"That's hard to say—"

At this moment, Dong Zuo, who was grinding coffee stones, spoke slowly.

"The flower that is used to attracting bees and butterflies never thought that there would be a day when it would be attracted by someone. So, when she realized it, she had already dropped her petals for the other person, just to stay on his shoulder for a little while."

"...Did he copy it from the Internet and deliberately show it off in front of us?" Red pulled Kiryu Sento and pointed at Ishido Soichi openly.

Kiryu Sento stared at Ishido So for a while with his chin raised, and although he didn't say anything, he raised his hand and pointed at Ishido So.

Even Ishido Soichi couldn't hold it anymore, he stood up and protested loudly, "You are discriminating! There may be similar sentences on the Internet, but I have definitely not seen them! So this is purely original! So you are really going too far! Now drink my coffee, and I will forgive you!"

"…Even if you don't forgive us, it doesn't seem to matter."

“Kaa ...

"Don't even think about running away from home--" Kiryuu Sento narrowed his eyes. The Transcendence Rabbit had already landed on Kiryuu Sento's shoulder, shaking his head harmlessly.

Ishido Soichi, who wanted to shout "I'm going to run away from home", immediately sat back slowly, raised his hand to push up his glasses, "I'm not a kid, how could I possibly talk about running away from home?"

"Really? That's good."

Kiryu Sento's regretful look made even Reid feel a little creepy.

Although Kiryu Sento is a good person, he sometimes accidentally reveals a dark side.

"But, Keji's speculation has some basis. If Yoshinaga Miyuki's golden fruit changes hands, Kusaka Masato is indeed the most likely one." Red put his hands behind his head and let out a long breath, "But, this is bad... If it's in his hands, doesn't it mean that there is no other choice but to rob it?"

Reid believes that most problems between people can be solved through communication.

But that also said, it’s the majority of the problem.

Unfortunately, the problem between him and Masato Souji was one of those small parts that couldn't be solved through communication.

Red was also helpless about this. He really didn't understand why Masato Kusaga was so jealous of him.

"that--"

Mari Sonoda appeared at the door and raised her voice. When everyone looked over, Mari Sonoda tried hard to stand up straight, trying to make herself look tall.

"You don't think you can persuade Sogaya to give the golden fruit to us," Reid stood up and walked to Sonoda Mari. He put his hand under Sonoda Mari's armpit, lifted her up with force, put her on the chair, and then sat directly on the ground.

The others also bent down and sat on the ground out of respect.

Under everyone's cover-up, Sonoda Mari's face instantly turned red like a ripe apple, and her legs began to tremble because she was too nervous and ashamed.

It would have been fine if it was just Red, but even the elder Kurim sat on the ground.

Mari Sonoda took a few deep breaths and finally adjusted her mood. Just as she was about to speak, Red, who was sitting closest to her, raised his hand and grabbed the chair, shaking it deliberately. Sonoda Mari was so scared that her legs went limp and she knelt on the chair.

"Impossible, impossible. If he really wanted to give the golden fruit to us, he wouldn't have waited for us to ask him for it."

Seeing Sonoda Mari puffing up her cheeks, Red immediately raised his finger to emphasize the point.

"Humph - I didn't say I wanted to negotiate -" Sonoda Mari crossed her arms, snorted, and then muttered softly, "Why don't you just go and rob it?"

Chapter 1200 You Have Nothing Left

I have to say, Mari Sonoda has really grown up.

He looked harmless and kind, as if he meant "we should talk first", but he just started snatching things as soon as he opened his mouth.

Red felt that although it was not his problem, he should correct Mari Sonoda's way of thinking a little.

Unfortunately, before Red could speak, Sonoda Mari saw through Red's thoughts and immediately raised her hands to hold Red's face, staring straight into Red's eyes, "Red, don't get me wrong, Soka is special--"

The expressions of the people around him became very subtle.

The word "special" that Mari Sonoda said now is not a nice word.

This means that only Masato Soka and Mari Sonoda gave up on communication.

"Uh-what about me," Red asked curiously, holding up a finger.

Sonoda Mari blinked, tilted her head back slightly, her eyes flickered, and her face began to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye, "Of course you are also... also... Te, Te..."

"special?"

"Ah, ah, ah - this isn't important right now! For the sake of world peace! Quickly confirm whether the Golden Fruit is on Soka. If it is, snatch it away to save trouble. If it isn't, quickly look for it! Over!"

After saying that, Sonoda Mari jumped up, blushed, and walked out quickly. After a few seconds, Sonoda Mari walked back even faster, grabbed my arm, and dragged it back hard, "Let's get going!"

"I understand. As always, I'll ask you to fish out the grass."

Kiryu Sento and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. It was not until Red and Sonoda Mari left that Manjo Ryuga scratched his face and said, "Red should know Mari's... thoughts."

"Long Wo, you are just a fool, don't talk about things you don't understand--"

"I had a girlfriend before, did you have one, Sento?"

Kiryu Sento stood up expressionlessly and kicked Manjo Ryuga's calf in the spot that would cause cramps. Amid Manjo Ryuga's wails, Kiryu Sento stood up with his hands open.

"For scientists, science is their life partner, right—"

Kiryu Sento stretched out his right hand in the direction of Kurim.

After a moment of silence, Kurim looked away very slowly.

……

Jacaranda.

“Wow——Hajime-nii, the pictures you take are getting better and better!”

Looking at the beautiful photo in her hand, Kurihara Tenyin's eyes lit up and she turned excitedly and shouted to Kurihara Haruka.

"Mom! How about I put up Hajime-nii's picture in the store?"

"You can't post photos of people," Kurihara Haruka said helplessly but also very happy.

Hajime Aikawa is not good at expressing himself, but just by looking at his photos you can understand his mood at the moment.

Just like the sunshine, it seems to come from a very far away place, but it can fall on everyone.

“Ah—by the way, Hajime-nii, you can take some pictures of the customers in the store—”

Seeing that Kurihara Amane was so excited, Aikawa Hajime didn't want to spoil her fun, "If you agree."

"Of course I'll agree. We're all gentle people - ah - welcome!"

The crisp sound of wind chimes interrupted their conversation. Kurihara Tenon immediately stood up and waved to the man at the door. Aikawa Hajime also stood up, but his expression was not good, and even a little solemn.

After a long time, he smelled the scent of the undead beast.

"Who are you?"

The man held the door and tilted his head toward the outside.

"Aikawa Hajime, I'm looking for you."

Although Kurihara Tenon is still young, she lost her father early and had faced all kinds of difficulties with her mother. She immediately realized that the other party was not well-intentioned and carefully grabbed a corner of Aikawa Hajime's clothes.

"Tianyin, it's okay—"

Aikawa Hajime patted Kurihara Tenon on the head and followed her out.

Under the guidance of the other party, Aikawa Hajime came to an empty alley.

Aikawa Hajime did not follow the other party deeper into the alley, but stopped in front of the alley, "Who are you? Why do you have the breath of an undead beast?"

"My name is Masato Kusaga - as for the breath of the undead beast you mentioned... I think this is what you are referring to?" Masato Kusaga turned around and raised his right hand, and a golden fruit appeared in his palm.

Aikawa Hajime's pupils shrank, "This is the Gold Fruit of the Heart Category Q. How did you get it?"

Kusaga Masato paused and put down his hand. "I also want to know why she gave me the golden fruit, but I will probably never get the answer, and... I probably don't care about the answer."

Aikawa Hajime loosened his fingers in his pockets, "Why did you come to see me?"

"The Golden Fruit of the Heart Category K is in your possession, right?" Kusaga Masato narrowed his eyes slowly, "It can only be in your possession."

Aikawa Hajime was stunned for a moment, he let out a long breath, turned around and prepared to leave, "If you are looking for me for this matter, I have nothing to say to you."

"I'm sorry - I'm not here to talk to you -"

Masato Kusaga pulled out a belt and a card of the A of Clubs category from his bosom.

"I must get the Golden Fruit of Heart Category K."

"for what?"

In response to Aikawa Hajime's question, Sohka Masato fell silent, but did not stop sliding the card into his belt.

"I have no idea--"

The armor with the plum blossom logo fell.

"I just know that if I don't do something, I'll have nothing—"

"is it?"

【Change——】

Aikawa Hajime raised his hand and waved, and Masato Kusaga, who was wearing the strongest armor, flew backwards and fell heavily into the garbage dump.

“You are not going to have nothing, you already have nothing, and now you are just looking for an excuse for not giving up.”

Aikawa Hajime put down his hand and turned to leave.

Masato Soggi, who was lying in the garbage dump, raised his hand in the direction of Aikawa Hajime, but finally lowered it and the armor on his body was removed.

Lying in the trash can, Soukai Masato looked up at the sky which was extremely narrow due to the alley.

He was like a member of this place, dirty, messy, and no one cared about him. The only thing that still had a hint of cleanliness was the golden fruit belonging to Yoshinaga Miyuki that had appeared in his body at some point.

This was like the last hope that fate had left for him, telling him that he had not lost everything yet, that he still had a chance to fight for it, and that as long as he tried one more time, he could get everything he wanted.

A crisp bell rang.

That was the ringtone he set specifically for Sonoda Mari's number. He had always been looking forward to Sonoda Mari calling him, but gradually, he became afraid that Sonoda Mari would come to see him.

It was as if a phone call from Sonoda Mari would completely destroy everything he had.

You have nothing left

Masato Kusaga pulled out his cell phone and answered the call after a moment of silence.

Chapter 1201: Starting over after losing everything

Under the overpass, Masato Kusaga leaned on his motorcycle, his hands in his pockets, looking at the river in the distance.

A heavy engine sounded, and Masato Kusaga let out a long breath, stood up but did not look over.

"Just as you guessed, the Gold Fruit of the Heart Q is in my possession—"

Red took off his helmet and shook his hair, "Then you should know our purpose."

Mari Sonoda held Reid's back and did not get out of the car.

Although she was the one who made the call, she felt a little embarrassed when she actually arrived at the scene.

Kusaga Masato threw his backpack on the ground and pulled out his belt. "The Category Q Golden Fruit is my last hope. If I lose even this Golden Fruit, I will be completely left with nothing."

Facing Masato Kusaga's declaration of a last-ditch battle and his eyes, Reid scratched his face, raised his hand and slapped the Sengoku Driver on his belt, "When you regard something as your last hope, and think that you will have nothing if you lose that thing, then you are no different from having nothing. This battle is meaningless--"

"Yes, this is a meaningless battle, but... it is necessary for me."

Masato Soga stuffed the card into his belt, his eyes passed over Reid and fell on Sonoda Mari, who was still sitting on the mobile Pegasus with a backpack. The moment her eyes met Masato Soga, Sonoda Mari subconsciously turned her face away.

"Really?" Reid took the Shenghong Lock Seed and the Unified Lock Seed, "If this is what you want--"

"Henshin——"

"That's what I wanted! Henshin!"

Masato Kusaga buckled his belt hard and rushed towards Red.

Kusaga Masato knows what he wants and what he is fighting for, but he also knows that what he wants will probably never be achieved.

The outcome was in no doubt from the very beginning.

Kusaga Masato had no victories or defeats.
