Brave World, I report to the police station in red at the beginning

The girl took her hand off the strap of the guitar bag, unzipped the top zipper of the bag, and reached inside.

For the long-necked monster, this is also quite unusual. He has been feeding these little kids at night for a long time. This is why there are almost no people on the street at this time.

Some were so frightened that they couldn't move, while others were so frightened that they ran away. It was the first time that a girl showed such disgust and aversion.

But he didn't care. With "delicious food" in front of him, maybe this little guy just thought he was performing some kind of show?

The girl's hand was still groping in the guitar bag at this time.

"Tsk."

A smacking sound came from his mouth, with a hint of impatience.

"I'm gonna start now."

The long-necked monster didn't want to wait any longer and was about to bite the girl.

"So, Chikage, it's such a short knife, and it must be difficult for you to carry it with such a big guitar bag! Wow!"

The helpless voice was accompanied by an emerald green whirlwind. It came from a petite little girl. While she was speaking the helpless words, her powerful voice was accompanied by a flying kick, which hit the long-necked monster's forehead heavily.

There was a tornado hidden under the sole of the foot, and the flying kick that seemed to have no lethality directly left a spiral wound on the long-necked monster's forehead. Amid the monster's wailing, the long-necked monster's head was kicked several meters away.

The girl landed steadily without even a speck of dust being raised.

But the girl didn't understand at all. She wasn't wearing a skirt when she was doing the flying kick. The cuffs and trouser legs of the martial arts uniform she was wearing came from some dojo, and she looked very heroic.

But when a girl is doing a flying kick, she can only have a mysterious and cute feeling when she is wearing a skirt...

The other girl hiding in the corner was biting her handkerchief in disappointment. She didn't know if it was an illusion...it seemed that some symptoms were getting worse.

The black-haired girl called Qianjing did not respond immediately, but continued to grope. Finally, she found her weapon from the guitar bag before the long-necked monster stood up again, and pulled out the dagger without hesitation.

This dagger is made of fine iron, with a blade so sharp that it can cut hair.

It is engraved with mysterious runes to amplify the power of the emblem. Experiments have proven that it can directly increase the efficiency of the use of the power of the emblem by 150%, increase the power of magic by 200%, and increase the casting speed by a full double.

So... this is actually a magic wand, rather than a physical use. (Convinced)

Water-blue ripples flowed on the sword blade. Jun Qianjing had a stern expression. He took a step forward, leaving a watermark under his feet, and his figure appeared directly in front of the junction of the long-necked monster's neck and head.

The sword in his hand effortlessly pierced the long-necked monster's skin, which was much tougher than that of ordinary people, and cut straight into its neck.

If the long-necked monster had not realized that it had encountered a tough opponent when it was kicked, and had not retracted its neck in time like those brainless monsters, it would have avoided the fate of having its head chopped off.

However, even so, 1/5 of the part was still split directly. Fortunately, it was a monster, not a normal human, otherwise a wound of this degree would be enough to take his life.

"Qian Jing, you're too heavy-handed. I remember Master said that the final blow should be saved for him."

Nogi Wakaba, who was wearing a martial arts uniform, made a sound of distress while glancing around at various hidden corners. When she saw Kamisato Hinata hiding in the corner, she did not have any special reaction... She had become accustomed to it, but she did not notice the man who was supposed to appear.

"Eh? Where's the master?"

In response to this, the expression on Jun Qianjing's face became a little indescribable, as if a pile of paint had been spilled, with a mixed feeling. His gaze inevitably fell on Nogi Wakaba, who seemed to still know nothing.

"It will take a while, Meng...he can't come...so just kill him this time."

Instead of adding a title after his name as usual, Jun Qianjing held the sword in both hands, and a wave-like emblem pattern appeared behind him.

"So this is ah."

Nogi Wakaba understood, but nodded without fully understanding. She turned one hand into a palm and raised it vertically, and the hurricane emblem appeared behind her.

"I was thinking about cooking again today. It will definitely be better than yesterday."

As soon as these words were spoken, the supply of emblem power that was originally maintaining the emblem of Jun Qianjing stagnated for a moment, and the emblem behind him broke instantly.

No, doesn’t Nogi Wakaba know why Li Mengyu is not here?

There was a hint of embarrassment and resentment in his eyes.

At this moment, the long-necked monster's neck had returned to its normal proportions, and it was about to escape while covering the injured wound with one hand. Gun Chikage had no time to rebuild the emblem magic, but Nogi Wakaba had already completed it.

"Hey! Get torn in half by the wind blade!"

As always, it's a somewhat embarrassing word to say.

Chapter 59: A Nice Name

There is a hospital in Ehime Prefecture that has a very good reputation.

As the red light in the emergency room turned from green, after a brief silence, the nurse pushed the bed, followed by the attending doctor, and pushed the man who was currently on the bed and had lost all hope in life to the ward where he should be.

"Mr. Li, how do you feel now?"

"…Just barely, but it's much better now."

"Mr. Li, if possible, please don't eat weird things anymore."

The doctor held his head.

This old doctor with sparse hair and more than 30 years of medical practice has seen all kinds of strange things eaten by patients. He has even seen the magical little stick that relieves loneliness, but... that ball of colorful black... According to the patient, it has been soaked in stomach acid for at least two hours but there is no sign of dissolution.

Especially when the patient earnestly said that this thing used to be a biscuit, I felt that I still lacked experience.

"Yeah... After all, it's the child's sincere love, so I can't just reject it."

The patient, who was rubbing his stomach which was still a little uncomfortable, with a haggard face but still with a warm smile, was Li Mengyu.

After listening to Li Mengyu's words, the doctor touched his few hairs and thought of his own little cotton-padded jacket.

"If that's the case, I can understand it, but... protecting the child's mood is important, but you have to take good care of your body as well. Otherwise, if the pillar of the family collapses... then it won't be worth it."

The bald doctor patted Li Mengyu on the shoulder, as if he had misunderstood something.

"Accident, haha, it's just an accident this time."

Li Mengyu didn't care about those parts, and her expression was a little embarrassed.

He never expected that he would lose his first time in this world because of stomach pain - meaning he was sent to the hospital by ambulance.

This is irrational. What on earth did that girl Nogi Wakaba put in that cookie? !

It is obvious that he can even withstand the forbidden secret medicine passed down from generation to generation by the demons.

Although it is very likely that the packet of poison has expired...

I made up my mind that I must not let that girl touch any kitchen utensils again.

The bald doctor, not knowing what Li Mengyu was thinking on the hospital bed, ended his chat with Li Mengyu.

Pin the medical record to the clip at the end of Li Mengyu's bed.

"Although the current situation looks good, Mr. Li, you still need to stay a few more days to observe the situation. If you have any physical problems, you can press the emergency button over there. Someone will be on duty 24 hours a day."

"Understood. Thank you."

"fine."

The bald doctor gave the nurse a few instructions, mentioned a few names of medicines, and then left Li Mengyu's ward.

The nurse seemed a little nervous, and her fingers trembled slightly when she went to get the medicine and returned to the room to fill the IV bottle.

Judging from the tag on his chest, he's probably still in the internship period?

It took him a long time to find the vein on the back of Li Mengyu's hand, although he strongly suspected that the nurse had been secretly looking at his face... Actually, it was not a suspicion, because it would be hard for him not to notice such a big movement.

This is the dilemma of handsome men.

(Nurse: This person looks familiar. I think I’ve seen him on TV!)

Fortunately, it was inserted steadily and he did not go to prison for a second time.

After fixing the IV drip, she bowed to Li Mengyu and left the ward.

His dark history was not really exposed, so it's a pity that he was socially ruined.

Li Mengyu looked at the Band-Aid on the back of her hand and the slightly cool feeling she felt when she was receiving the infusion.

It’s been a long time. For him... the last time was a long, long time ago.

He sighed softly and took out his cell phone from his shirt pocket.

I glanced at the dim night outside the window and counted a few numbers in my mind.

The moment the phone rang, I pressed the answer button.

Hold the phone to your ear.

"Is it resolved? As expected of my Chikage, Nogi-san and Kamisato-san have left now? Ah~ There's nothing we can do about it. After all, we just happened to meet them on the school trip. They also have to return to their class. You should also go back early, so as not to make your teacher... and your classmates worry."

"Me? I'm fine now, don't worry, it's just a cookie... By the way, next time you see Kamisato Hinata, please tell her to keep an eye on Nogi Wakaba and don't let her do anything else!"

A girl's uncontrollable laughter came from the other end of the phone.

After talking on the phone with the girl for a while, Li Mengyu hung up the phone, sighed softly, and leaned back on the pillow of the hospital bed.

As I said at the beginning, this is not Kochi Prefecture, nor Kagawa Prefecture, but Ehime Prefecture.

Although they all belong to the Shikoku region, the topography of these three places is quite different.

As for why I appeared here, it’s not because of a commission or anything.

Two months have passed since the Ushiki incident, and the semester's classes at Gun Chikage's school ended a few days ago, and they officially went on vacation...but suddenly they were notified that they would be going on a school trip.

Because they were not as wealthy as other schools and could not go to other big cities to play, they simply found a place within the borders of Shikoku. Because he was a little worried about the child, he followed him out.

It’s definitely not because he can’t get any commissions and he’s afraid of being lonely staying at home alone... Absolutely not!

Coincidentally, Nogi Wakaba and the others had the same destination.

It was an unexpected encounter.

I really don't understand what's going on with these little guys' school. There have been a lot of missing persons and murders in Ehime Prefecture recently, but they still come here... As expected, he discovered traces of monsters and made a special plan to kill them... In the end, it was completely left to those two little guys.

Today, the two little guys have the ability to protect themselves... and they have no problem acting alone, which is why he can lie so peacefully on the hospital bed.

"I always feel that Qian Jing doesn't look very suitable for swords... Why don't we change her weapon someday?"

Li Mengyu rubbed her eyebrows, unable to help but worry again, and scratched her hair.

"We'll talk about it later."

His eyes were fixed on the fluorescent tube on the ceiling. Perhaps he felt that staring at the tube was a bit dull, so he turned his gaze to his "roommate".

He is not some invincible rich second generation, and he definitely cannot be the only one in the ward.

The other person noticed his gaze and instantly wrapped his entire body in the quilt.

He seems to be a very shy little guy, and probably very interesting.

She seems to be about the same age as Jun Qianjing and the others, and is also a girl.

Thanks to the invention of medical record cards in modern society, Li Mengyu can directly know the other person's name without having to guess or shout "hello".

"Iyoshima Anzu..."

Li Mengyu touched her chin and recited it involuntarily.

"This name sounds pretty nice."

Chapter 60 Iyoshima Apricot

"How can there be such a disgusting adult! "

Iyoshima An's heart was filled with sour emotions, her chest was slightly heaving, and she was gasping for breath.

She looked at the young man who was sitting on the hospital bed, his chin supported, a smile on his face, looking at her.

She hid under the quilt because she was not good at communicating with other people. Why couldn't this guy read the air... and kept his eyes on her!

In addition, her body was weak to begin with, and the air quality in the quilt was not very good... At this moment, she felt a little chest tightness.

"I feel like I'm being disliked."

Facing the girl's vicious eyes, Li Mengyu felt a little uncomfortable and finally looked away.

He didn't have any bad intentions, he just wanted to see what kind of guy his "roommate" was during his hospitalization.

Yes, she had sickly pale skin, long wavy golden hair, and although her face looked a little haggard, she exuded the aura of a literary girl.

Hmm? Are you a foreigner?

Li Mengyu didn't realize that to the people here, he was actually a foreigner.
