Knights Don't Need a Youthful Romance Story

Every now and then something would dart through the darkness, occasionally leaving behind a terrifying smile.

But when Horikita looked over, he found nothing.

Horikita Manabu's usually calm and clear mind seemed to have come to a standstill at this moment.

There was only one thought in my mind.

Danger! We must escape this dangerous place immediately.

But remembering what the man had said before, Horikita Manabu gritted his teeth and followed behind him.

The conflict between reason and emotion is amplified to an extreme degree at this moment.

Reason told Horikita that he should continue in his current state.

But his emotions, or rather his physical instincts, urged him to escape quickly.

Horikita Manabu could only constantly suppress his inner impulses.

If this continues, Horikita Manabu might completely stop thinking.

Finally, a glimmer of light appeared in Horikita Manabu's eyes.

My almost stagnant thoughts slowly began to stir again.

A glimmer of light appeared in his empty eyes.

Almost instinctively, Horikita Manabu quickened his pace.

After all, humans have always had a longing for light and fire.

Light appearing in the darkness will instinctively attract people.

But after taking only two quick steps, Horikita Manabu slowed down again and continued to follow behind the man in front of him.

It's still unclear what the situation is.

Horikita Manabu prefers to be a little conservative rather than take risks.

He does indeed make some seemingly radical moves.

But that was based on the premise that he was very confident.

To be honest, even now, Horikita still doesn't understand what's going on.

So let's choose to be a little more calm and conservative.

I'd rather do nothing than make a mistake.

As you walk further in, the light becomes more and more obvious.

Finally, Horikita Manabu emerged from the dark passage.

Before him stood a young man with a smile on his face.

They looked to be about the same age as me.

Although his body was almost at its limit, Horikita Manabu's senses were surprisingly sharp at that moment.

Upon seeing Luo Zhen, Horikita Manabu felt the hairs on his body stand on end.

Alarms kept ringing in my head.

Run!

Get away from this guy right now!

"Hello, my name is Luo Zhen."

But the next second, as the person in front of him introduced himself, that sense of danger vanished instantly.

Horikita Manabu felt that what he had experienced today was too bizarre.

If this continues, he'll eventually develop neurasthenia.

As Horikita Manabu adjusted his glasses, he noticed his hands were trembling involuntarily.

"I'm sure you have a lot of questions right now."

"Come with me, I'll explain it to you."

Turning to the side, Luo Zhen revealed the door behind him and spoke.

After thinking for a moment, he added:

"Don't worry, the test is over."

"You're qualified."

"Is that so? Thank you for your help."

Horikita Manabu said in a somewhat inexplicable tone.

At first, I just wanted to find a job where I could use my abilities and that was somewhat challenging.

But what exactly is the situation now?

I completely don't understand it anymore.

It involves supernatural powers, memory erasure, and trials.

What is this and what?

Looking at the black and white symbol on Luo Zhen's chest, Horikita Manabu felt really tired.

If I say I'm quitting, can you let me leave?

Of course, Horikita Manabu was only thinking about it.

After a moment of silence, he followed Luo Zhen over.

Chapter 896, Section 917: Please, Tom

Inside the office, Horikita Manabu silently stared at the screen on his computer.

In the video, his own face was so conspicuous.

Although she looked very weak, she had no recollection of it at all.

But Horikita Manabu knew that this was himself.

A few cents ago, after listening to Luo Zhen's explanation, Horikita Manabu suddenly wondered if his own memories had also been erased.

After thinking for a moment, Luo Zhen showed him the video.

And he very considerately explained a lot to Horikita Manabu.

This includes some of Horikita Manabu's small actions before his memories were erased.

For example, try leaving some mark on yourself after your memories have been erased.

Therefore, Luo Zhen has always disliked people who consider themselves smart.

Because they will never obediently cooperate with other people's actions.

Moreover, there's a saying that goes something like that.

Only a fool would think he's smart.

In anime, those characters who act like they have unparalleled wisdom are usually defeated by the main characters using powerful brick-throwing techniques.

Forget about scheming or any kind of strategy.

It doesn't exist, okay?

In most anime, wise characters are either assimilated into brutes by the main characters or are simply overpowered by the main characters who don't care about anything.

Those who can outwit force are truly a minority.

It can only be said that sometimes a brute is indeed more effective against a wise man.

"In other words, my memory was indeed erased before I graduated."

Rubbing his head, Horikita Manabu said hesitantly.

Even if you know that your memory was erased on a certain day.

However, Horikita Manabu was also unable to detect anything unusual.

There is still no sense of incongruity in my memory.

It's as if you're watching someone else's story.

Forget about recalling anything, I didn't even feel a sense of familiarity.

If it weren't for the existence of the authorities, Horikita Manabu would have even doubted whether the person in the video was himself.

"Yes, because of your school's chairman, Sakayanagi."

Luo Zhen nodded in response.

"Chairperson Sakayanagi?"

Horikita Manabu said thoughtfully.

Shortly before graduation, the school's chairman of the board was suddenly replaced.

Even he, the student council president who had very close ties with the school's higher-ups, didn't receive a single word of it.

Everything happened so suddenly.

The newly appointed chairman also stated that he was unaware of the matter concerning Chairman Sakayanagi.

Perhaps they accidentally offended some very important person.

Judging from the new chairman of the board, Yuecheng, he clearly has no intention of investigating further.

Although Chairman Tsukishiro believes he is no less capable than Sakayanagi and is very confident in his own abilities.

But he wouldn't be foolish enough to investigate things he shouldn't be investigating.

After all, the other party can make Sakayanagi disappear without a trace, and can also make him disappear without a trace.

He even had to thank that unknown big shot for clearing the obstacles in his path.

Tsukishiro accepted all of Sakayanagi Arisu's hostility.

In their eyes, he must have used some underhanded means to get this position.

Although she desperately wanted to find her father, she always failed due to various obstacles.

But Arisu Sakayanagi did not give up. Her current idea has changed from defeating the so-called artificial genius to building her own team.

This way, after graduation, you can have a subordinate you can trust.

We'll continue the investigation later.

What needs to be done now is to lie low.

"Although it's a bit against the rules to say it like this, I still want to ask if I can apply to have my memories restored?"

"After all, this is my first real encounter with a supernatural event, which should be helpful for my future work."

Putting his hand down, Horikita Manabu looked at Luo Zhen beside him and asked tentatively.

Because he was worried that Luo Zhen might misunderstand, he added a sentence at the end.

The reason that it will be helpful for future work is indeed quite good.

Compared to the unusual events that Horikita encountered, these events did not leave him with any serious psychological trauma.

The reason for erasing his memory was to ensure that these things would not be leaked.

"Hmm, it's a bit difficult."

"Normally, this is unlikely to happen."

Luo Zhen expressed some difficulty in dealing with this.

After all, Horikita Manabu's incident involved many people.

So Luo Zhen and Sakamoto simply brought everyone from the Advanced Education Academy back to the base and eliminated them one by one.

Dr. Jane herself will handle the procedure, ensuring they have absolutely no recollection of it and that the memory will be completely erased.

Horikita said he wants to recover, but it will be quite difficult.
