Zongman, working as a teaching assistant in Trasen

————Yes, in the end he did not kill them, but broke their bones “a little bit” and then mercifully let them go, and even allowed them to receive treatment after being arrested by the police, thus writing off all grudges.

The main reason was naturally that the opponent did not really cause him any harm - that little truck collision at 50 yards was not as powerful as the headbutt that Sakura Shin would give him when he saw him every day!

The secondary reason is that the organization has regulations that try to avoid deaths in social events with great influence, which would undermine the organization's own secrecy.

The kidnapping of Mejiro McQueen was a social event with a huge impact.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

"..."

Oh no, I almost forgot that the real protagonist of this incident is still hanging by his hand.

Saburo Uozuka awkwardly finished the last bit of his cigarette, and casually threw the remaining cigarette butt into the burning iron barrel to burn it. With his other hand, he picked up the hemp rope tied to the iron pillar next to him and quickly and steadily sent it out.

Then, with her eyes and mouth covered and her hands and feet tied, Megumi McQueen sat on her "inseparable" chair, which slowly descended from the roof of the warehouse like a fake moon in a stage play, and stood steadily back to its original place.

On the back of the chair, there was an iron hook for hanging small heavy objects. The connected rope extended all the way to the fixed pulley above the ceiling and finally appeared in the palm of Uozuka Saburo's hand.

————My strength has tripled, and I can really do whatever I want.jpg

The burly man in black said so.

"Hey, be honest and don't think of any bad ideas."

Changing his tone, his body tinged with the scent of freshly smoked, no-name cigarettes, Uozuka Saburo angrily addressed Mejiro McQueen, "Someone paid me three times the price of kidnapping you to rescue you, but they didn't mention whether I had to return you intact. If you dare do anything to harm me later, I won't mind cutting off one of your legs!"

“Woo! Woo woo woo woo…”

Hearing this, even a pervert like Mejiro McQueen couldn't help but shudder all over, lowered his head like an eggplant hit by frost, and nodded weakly.

Legs are the life of a horse girl. Without legs, a horse girl is basically dead... No matter how naughty she is, she will never dare to joke about her legs.

Seeing that Mejiro McQueen had calmed down, Uozuka Saburo narrowed his eyes with satisfaction, pulled out the short knife he carried with him, and easily cut the thick hemp rope that she had struggled with for a long time but could not loosen, allowing her body to regain its freedom.

However, the restraints on her hands, the blindfold and the mouth sticker were not removed. She was simply picked up and placed aside like a chicken, while he helped her tidy up her clothes.

"Woo?"

"I've already called the police using their cell phones. If the police aren't stupid, they'll track you down and get you out within half an hour."

Carefully brushing off the cracked dirt on McQueen's body and straightening her slightly disheveled school uniform, Uozuka Saburo said gently but solemnly, "So, if you dare to escape before they arrive and prevent me from getting the bounty, I will kill you—do you understand?"

"Woooo..."

Chapter 55: My Heart and My Actions Are as Clear as a Mirror

Today was a very long day for Mejiro McQueen.

First, he entered the legendary holy land early in the morning with fear and anticipation to feast on the food, but was caught and deceived by the most evil teacher in history, Treson, and only ate half full.

Then I believed his lies and practiced like crazy for a whole day. When I was exhausted, I found out that this guy was actually picking up girls!

After rushing up to teach him a lesson in a fit of rage, she was then kidnapped by these cowards and taken to this hellish place where she was subjected to inhuman torture. When she was dying, she finally waited for rescue, but it was still a vicious man who beat and scolded her...

pain! It hurts so much!

Her fragile, young and helpless heart!

Why did she, the eldest daughter of the Mejiro family, have to suffer such a tragic fate? Why didn't there exist even a single male creature who dared to actually lay a hand on her?

"Woo..."

"What? Do you want to poop?"

“…Woo!”

Shaking his head vigorously, Mubai McQueen suddenly remembered that he seemed to have had a similar conversation this morning.

“…Woo, woo?”

"Huh? What did you say?"

"woo woo woo woo?"

"...I'm going to tear off the tape for you now. If you dare to scream, I'll blow into your ears. Do you understand?"

"woo woo woo woo!"

"..."

It's strange. Aren't ladies from wealthy families like her usually shy and unable to stand such excitement?

Why does it feel like this guy is not only not avoiding it, but also looking forward to it? ?

Touching his ears, Uozuka Saburo felt a chill all over his body, and he couldn't understand Mejiro McQueen's impatience anymore...

...Does she really want to speak?

Could it be that he remembered that there was some urgent matter that he hadn't dealt with and wanted my help?

Not getting the emotion expressed by Mejiro McQueen at all, Uozuka Saburo pondered for a moment, then looked as if he had suddenly realized something, reached into his pocket and tore off the tape on Mejiro McQueen's mouth.

"Cough cough! Cough cough! Drink——"

The tape that An Ming had casually put on was quite strong. When Uozuka Saburo tore it off so violently, several hairs on Mejiro McQueen's mouth were pulled out. The pain made her cough and curse in her heart, criticizing the other party for not knowing how to be gentle with women.

Just when she felt a little better and was eager to turn around and say something, a dark brown cylindrical object was handed to her mouth. She bit it subconsciously and her expression was stunned.

Sweet?

This is... a super delicious chocolate bar from Delicious Home that we only let eat once a month! ?

“…crunch crunch crunch!”

"Hey hey hey! Slow down! You're almost biting my hand!!"

He quickly withdrew his hand from the packaging bag to avoid being bitten by two rows of teeth marks. Uozuka Saburo shook his hand in fear and said with a strange smile: "Haha~ Fortunately, I brought a few of these things with me. I knew you must be hungry!"

"Crunch, crunch—gulp, huh~"

Cuckoo cuckoo————

"..."

"...Okay, there are only three. I'll give them all to you. Don't choke yourself to death."

"Hmm... hum~"

Although the other person's eyes were covered with a black cloth, Uozuka Saburo could still imagine the funny look of her eyes that were first round and then pointed, showing a happy expression for a moment and then forced indifference, and he couldn't help but chuckle.

"...Naniyo~"

"Haha~ No, no, I just thought you were really open about your desires, and you were very cool about it~"

After swirling her head, Uozuka Saburo also relaxed. He sat down cross-legged against a nearby container with Mejiro McQueen, smiling and saying, "Eat when you want, sleep when you want, and say whatever you want without worrying about offending anyone. Even if you're kidnapped, you can still speak freely and scare these idiots away—you have a bright future."

"...It's not that simple..."

Stopping his hamster-like munching, Meshiro McQueen lowered his hands from tightly clutching the chocolate bar, lowered his head, and said dejectedly, "I'm just following Grandma Kitano's advice and following the planned path... All these achievements and titles so far are just part of the plan, and have nothing to do with my own efforts..."

Yes, these are just plans. They are just parts of the grand machine called "Mejiro Family" that are tightly stuck into the core and connected to all other parts. They don't have any ideas of their own, nor do they need to have ideas of their own.

Train step by step, compete step by step, win awards step by step, and go to school step by step.

Every step was planned clearly, and the optimal solution for each time period was told to her early on. Even if there were slight accidents, they would be corrected quickly, and the journey would continue smoothly and without any disturbances.

There is actually nothing wrong with this. The Mejiro family has been doing this for generations, and the head of the family, Grandma Kitano, is not an unkind person. She will communicate with them carefully at every step and seek their consent before implementing it together.

But... after all, something is missing.

"...A high-speed train running on rails yearns for a car that moves at a slower speed, yet can freely run across the wilderness, mountains, and seas at will... Alas."

After uttering this metaphor, which had a touch of culture, but only a hint of cultural connotation, Uozuka Saburo sighed softly, looked up at the starless night sky, and said with a pretentious air, "People always envision what they don't have, imagining how wonderful it would be if they could truly possess it, and how easily the difficulties they face could be resolved. But in reality, when you actually reach that point, you'll find that it's completely different from your imagination."

"Um......"

Although the wording sounds a bit rough, it really hits the nail on the head for Mejiro McQueen: she saw this and felt the difficulties that might come firsthand.

Like most people, she was afraid, but at the same time she felt confused because of her education.

She is the proud eldest daughter of the Mejiro family. No difficulty can stop her. But what if this path isn't the best one? What if she made the wrong choice?

"Can you... answer a question for me seriously?"

Turning his head and "looking" at Uozuka Saburo through the blindfold, Mejiro McQueen spoke with a weak and pleading tone for the first time: "Is the desire I pursue wrong? Will the things I instinctively want to obtain... never belong to me??"

"...Isn't the answer of course?"

"...I see. Thank you..."

"But even if it's the wrong path, if your heart tells you it's the right one, what's the harm in going down that path?"

"?!!!"

Uozuka Saburo stood up, turned around, and spoke out the thoughts he had never shared with anyone for so many years, thoughts buried deep in his soul:

"My heart and my actions are as clear as a mirror, and everything I do is just."

A dark whisper rang in Mejiro McQueen's ears, lifting her heart from the abyss and allowing her to see the bright moonlight shining into her heart: "Go for it! Become a horse girl who is not defined by others! Use your hard work and your will to forge a path that is uniquely yours!"

Chapter 56 I will never sit idly by!

When McQueen finally returned home under police escort, this farce that took place in the dark night finally came to an end.

The chaebols, the underworld, the police, the officials, all the forces involved and affected by this incident retracted their extended tentacles one by one, and returned to calm as if nothing had happened, only continuing the subsequent game of neither light nor heavy in secret.

The villains who were unaware of the deeper meaning of the incident were exposed and dealt with, the adults who knew the whole story were secretly puzzled, and only a few who fully understood what had happened sighed helplessly and felt fortunate that they had overcome the crisis again.

"That's probably... that's what happened."

Sitting on the hospital bed, facing the solemn-looking Superintendent Masaru and the young chairman sitting beside him with his eyes closed and fanning himself, Mejiro McQueen finished his usual account of tonight's bizarre adventure, leaning forward slightly. "I'm sorry to have troubled you all. On behalf of the Mejiro family and myself, I offer my sincerest apologies to both of you—I'm truly sorry for causing you so much trouble."

"Well, it's okay, it's just an emergency. I'm used to it..."

"That's fine! As the victim, you've done nothing wrong. You can hold your head up high and speak with dignity!"

Compared to the impartial Officer Wanmen, Akikawa Yayoi naturally leaned more towards her own student. With a swish, she unfolded a folding fan with the inscription "Not Guilty!" and spoke passionately in her usual high-pitched voice, "The matter is completely clear. They were just a group of lawless thugs desperate to extort money. When they were about to commit their crime, you turned against them, causing serious injuries to all of them. They brought this upon themselves, and you are absolutely not to blame for this crime—am I right, Officer Wanmen?"

"Ah, that's basically it—what happened to that girl is a serious crime no matter what era or place it is. They'll never be able to start a new life."

After organizing the questions he had just asked into his notes and gently closing them, Superintendent Wanmen spoke in a serious yet approachable tone, "It's just that the answers you gave me just now seem slightly different from the traces we found at the scene. For example, the specific process of kicking from outside the door to inside the room... Can you tell us more about it?"

"......I......"

"Easy! Six meters is nothing to Uma Musume. She can easily jump over it with a kick of her feet! Mejiro McQueen must have kicked the door to intimidate her before jumping to the other side and trying to counterattack!"

"Well, that makes sense, but..."

"Besides! All three of them bore the obvious marks of the horsegirl collision. During the incident, all of the Tresen students remained at the academy, and the few who were outside were unable to reach their location. I'd like to ask what questions the Wanmen Police Officer still has?"

"...Xiao, ahem, Chairman Akikawa, you don't have to be like this."

Being so mercilessly dissed by his favorite junior, Wanmen felt quite frustrated. He almost resorted to the name they usually used in private. After a light cough, he said helplessly, "I'm doing this for your own good... After all, there are still some doubts within the police force as to whether Ma-sama is truly a vulnerable group. If we want to properly resolve this case, we need the cooperation of the three of us."

"I understand! However, a kidnapping is a kidnapping. This is an indisputable fact!"

Folding her folding fan with a swish, Akikawa Yayoi declared with a resolute, almost unsympathetic attitude, "As the academy's chairman, I must speak up for my beloved horse girl! I will never sit idly by and allow someone to deliberately misinterpret the nature of this incident simply because the victim was a horse girl—even in the slightest way!"

"!!!Director Akikawa!"

"......well."

Scratching his head, realizing that he represented an unwelcome force, Wanmen Jingshi Masaya could only give a wry smile, put away his gear, and stood up, saying, "Okay, that's all for today. Miss Mejiro should also get some rest early. I'll visit you again if you have any questions in the future."

"Thank you very much... and about that, my family..."

"Don't worry, they've already been notified, so they can rest assured."

Lifting his hat to cover his balding head, Superintendent Wan Men smiled and said, "After all, it's the 'Mejiro family'. If Ms. Kitano really gets angry, even the Metropolitan Police Department Director can't stand it. You've been rescued, so you must tell her immediately."

"Is that so? Sorry to bother you... What about them?"

"It seems he's still dealing with some things. He said he didn't want to disturb your rest, so he'll come to see you early tomorrow morning."

After walking out of the ward and shaking his hands behind his back, Wanmen said one last thing and left: "They really care about you very much and will never abandon you because of such a trivial matter. Don't worry."
