Why are there only loser heroines around me?

Ukyo turned around in confusion, looking for someone in the direction Kusaki had just been looking, and saw the trembling Yanami.

"stop!"

The grass that wanted to leave suddenly stopped

Yanami's expression was a little gloomy.

"I'm sorry, Kyouna, I just hope you find someone better than me..."

"……do not do that."

Seeing the murderous look on Yana's face vanish without a trace, Ukyo thought he would come over and slap her like Tsukinoki did. After confirming his relationship with Karen, things had become intense, proving that Kusuke was a quick-acting type who was very sensitive to love. If that was the case, he must have noticed his childhood sweetheart's affection for him, but he was indifferent to such feelings.

Cao Jie would not call his parents to school like those bad girls. He knew that he was in the wrong, so he could only take the slap. However, the other party's palm not only did not fall down, but even shrank back like a coward.

Hakamada took another step forward, moving closer to Yanami.

"I hope you can be happy and find someone better than me—"

"shut up!"

Yanami felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained away. At that moment, Ukyo raised his hand and grabbed Kusaki's wrist, squeezing himself between the two of them and shielding Yanami behind him.

Ukyo said nothing, but he squeezed Kusuke's wrist so hard that a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

He looked at Ukyo, seemingly stubbornly believing that he had done the right thing.

"I just hope Kyona finds a new relationship."

You Jing was not impressed by the other party's emotional intelligence.

It seems that every word shows concern, but in fact, every word is a sharp arrow piercing the person involved.

As long as Yanaijian still had a trace of joy for Caojie in her heart, these words would be a heavy blow to her.

Caojie realized the current situation belatedly, because Yanami's face turned very pale.

Twelve years of joy turned into flowing water in Yanami's eyes.

This was the ninth time she'd cried in front of Youjing since meeting him. When she knew Caojie, she'd always been happy and smiling. Since meeting Youjing, she's constantly been attacked and severely injured by demons, yet she feels more comfortable with him. This might be the purest form of friendship. After her breakup, no one dared to mention Caojie's name in front of her, only Youjing, disregarding her life or death, repeatedly attacked her as a loser. Just like no one dared to mention a wheelchair or disability in front of Tiesheng, yet Yu Hua dared to let him be a soccer goalkeeper.

She was very grateful to Youjing for grabbing her collar and pulling her out of the whirlpool of youth, allowing her to enter a world that was countless times more exciting than love. She seemed to like kendo a little, otherwise she would not have gone to the kendo hall during her leave. She also seemed to like ghosts a little, otherwise she would not have followed Youjing out to explore the world out of fear.

She suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Caojie's collar.

Kusai didn't know when Yanami's arm strength became so great that he could actually lift him up from the ground.

"Don't be so self-indulgent, Caojie. I've never liked you. Back at the fast food restaurant, I just felt sorry for you because no one wanted you, so I asked you to go find Hualian! Do you think I liked you before, so you come and say these pitiful words to me today? Caojie...you are so naive."

It's all lies.

Yanaijian put Kusuke down, raised his left hand wearing a white Cartier watch to straighten his messy hair, and his eyes pierced Kusuke like a sharp blade.

"Go back to your Hualian! Stop bothering me!"

.........

Ukyo really had to look up to her.

If she hadn't squatted by the wall and cried with her back against it...

You can see that she regrets it.

I really want to send a message to Caojie to explain my impulsiveness and restore our relationship.

But then she would be even more pathetic.

"It's fine." Ukyo said suddenly.

"What's good about it? Is this another mockery? Haha~, laugh if you want to, call me a loser if you want, anyway, I am..."

"I've never laughed at you, Yanaijian. We've known each other for so long, have you ever seen me laugh?"

Yanai sighed deeply and shook his head helplessly.

"So, you're boring because you just can't smile. If you smile more, maybe I'll really like you~"

The corners of Ukyo's lips seemed to actually curl up a few degrees, "Don't fantasize about things that won't bear fruit."

"That's right." Yana suddenly felt better and supported her chin with both hands. "Tell me, what kind of girl can make the devil Ukyo fall in love?" She stared at Ukyo's eyes and mouth, hoping to get the answer from his mouth.

He never said it before, which made Yanaijian very disappointed, but today, he rarely revealed a little information.

"Her beauty must be 12K."

"What?! So you're like every other clichéd boy, you also like good-looking things! But there don't seem to be any 12K monitors on the market yet?"

Yanaijian raised a finger and made a 1, saying, "This one doesn't count. Let's talk about the others!"

Image: "Image", Location: "Images/1728219810-100416414-112203729.jpg"

Ukyo said without hesitation: "She must have super powers and be able to control the wind."

"Haha~, that doesn't count. Here's another one! Where are there superpowers in real life?"

"That's all." Youjing planned to go back to the classroom.

"This is too little." Yanaijian also stood up with him.

"It's really gone."

Yanai curled her lips, feeling that she had gained nothing from today's self-explosion, which was a huge loss.

.......

.....

The next day was the last day of the first semester.

After the graduation ceremony, Teacher Gan Xia was handing out transcripts on the podium.

The scores for the first grade will be posted in a while. If nothing unexpected happens, Youjing will be first again.

Sitting in the back seat, Ukyo opened the test paper, and the comments on it once again left him speechless -

"If you really don't have someone you like, you can come to the teacher to get one."

Is it because his grades are too good that I can't give him any advice on his studies, so he can only turn his attention to love?

Teachers in China always avoid such topics, but Japanese teachers are just the opposite. At Shifu High School, teachers don't care about students who are in love. Some teachers even say to students with poor academic performance, "XX, your grades are so poor, no girl will like you." Or "XX, you have to be good at one of love and study, right?"

Ukyo put away the transcript and took out the speech manuscript that was hidden in the hole in the desk.

As the first in the senior class, he will speak as a student representative at the graduation ceremony.

The manuscript was two thousand words long, very formal and template-like, but it had some humor. It wouldn't make everyone laugh, but at least it wouldn't make the meeting boring.

At the back door of the classroom, a red-haired girl was waving at him, indicating that he should go out through the back door and check the manuscript.

That was Hibari Fanghuhara, Ishifu's student council president. Outwardly, she was incredibly capable, managing the student council in an orderly fashion. All members obeyed her orders, acting efficiently and fiercely. Ukyo had no idea what her private personality was like; he'd only had a few brief encounters with her.

Volume 59: Chapter The Red Monster

Backstage at the Thousand-Seat Auditorium...

Ukyo and Hibari finished reviewing the manuscript.

"It's really well written. It feels like a talk show. I should tear down the podium for you and leave only a standing microphone so that you can perform better." Fang Huyuan's tone was serious but with some teasing and humor. In the eyes of ordinary people, she was the student union president, and in the eyes of those who were not familiar with her, she was a flower of the mountain. But after just a few contacts, you would find that she was actually quite easy to get along with.

Youjing ended the final summary in a concise and humorous way.

Representatives from previous years always emphasized the importance of studying during the holidays, hoping that they could make good holiday plans and not just focus on playing. The two years after the first year of high school are crucial for further studies, so it is best to review the lessons during the holidays.

But Youjing said that going to school normally was already very tiring, and he hoped that everyone could have fun during the holidays. This sentence made the school leaders' expressions very interesting, and they looked at the class teacher Gan Xia as if they wanted to kill her. It was not until Youjing praised the school leaders' hard work and said that all students would remember their kindness that the middle-aged teachers sitting in the first row looked much better.

In the second half, he shared some learning methods in a humorous way.

He would always take pictures of his wrong questions with his mobile phone, thinking that he could look at them when he was crowded in the tram in the morning. However, he would always open LINE and TikTok. The students laughed and sympathized with him. He thought to himself that he was just like the top student in the grade. They also thought about looking at their wrong questions when they were crowded in the tram in the morning, but their time was stolen by TikTok.

But jokes are just jokes.

There were no wrong answers in Ukyo's phone.

What he looks at are supernatural stories happening all over the world. He rarely opens LINE, and only looks at the daily hot topics on TikTok, paying attention to whether there are any supernatural topics that have become hot searches that day.

Xiaoju looked at him with admiration and respect from the audience.

She longed to be someone like Youjing, who could speak freely under the gaze of tens of thousands of eyes.

Lemon was also listening with her eyes wide open, but her reaction was a little slow as she was thinking about the joke from the previous tram.

Yanami had already expected that this graduation speech would be very boring, so she secretly brought some potato chips. Even if Ukyo's jokes were funny, she didn't want to listen to them. The fact that a devil tells jokes is not funny in itself.

.......

...

"Ukyo, what are your summer vacation plans?" the student council president asked him if he wanted to join the student council for a team-building trip. He wasn't a member of the student council, but generally speaking, if the leader of an organization asked if they wanted to go on a trip with them, they were probably interested in recruiting them. Unfortunately, the student council was too much work. If he'd just been a runner for academic credits like back home, he might have considered it.

He declined Yun Que, but met 8K again after returning to class.

Karen asked him if they wanted to go karaoke together later. She invited a lot of people to ensure that no one would be embarrassed. 8K felt that the conflict between Kusaki and Yanami was her own fault, so she wanted to find an opportunity to reconcile the two. She liked Yanami very much, and the other girls in the class didn't like to talk to her much. When she first transferred to the school, she had a small group around her, but since she confirmed her relationship with Kusaki, those people disappeared.

But Caojie's friends are still around, which makes 8K very distressed. Why can't boys and girls be the same?

Ukyo told her that this was normal in interpersonal relationships and there was no need to worry. He couldn't go to karaoke because he had other things to do.

He declined the 8K, but then received an invitation from Lemon, asking her if she wanted to run a lap with her on her last night at school.

You Jing thought to himself that he had become a hot commodity?

Even Yumu hopes that he can go to the club office after school to give a summary and teach everyone the skills of writing books. This may be very helpful for their summer writing plans, especially Xiaoju. At the same time, Yumu is also asking if his novel, which has been favored by many editors, can be revised. He waits every day and has reached the point of insomnia.

He still declined their invitations and prepared to go home alone on the night of the graduation ceremony.

Everyone left early that day, and the teacher would not be so unsociable as to keep us after class on the last day of the graduation ceremony.

By the time Ukyo had packed up his things, only a few scattered people were left in the classroom.

Yanami was among the first to leave. She told them that a seventy-year-old man at the swordplay hall hoped that Ukyo-sama would come and give them guidance. It would be even better if Ida Iiryu-sama could teach them some demon-slaying techniques. With the resurgence of belief in gods and demons around the world, swordsmen like them could finally shed their protective gear and give it a go, but only if someone could provide them with a way.

Ukyo didn't refuse this. He would take some time to go to the swordplay hall to see the level of their so-called "swordplay improvement".

The sun was halfway down, and before leaving the classroom, he opened his phone to read text messages as usual. After confirming that there was no message signed "Yours sincerely, Norma", he, as the last person to leave the class, locked all the windows and doors. When he reached the gate, Maori's call request popped up on his phone.

They found a monster, and the hunting operation would begin tonight. This time they were well prepared, with three people with super powers, three liters of holy water blessed by a priest, more than twenty bags of highly purified salt, and each auxiliary police officer was equipped with a divine sword. The hunting plan was absolutely foolproof.

But if his old partner "Brother Ukyo" could be present, the operation would definitely go more smoothly.

But when Ukyo asked him what kind of monster they were going to hunt tonight, Maori said he didn't know. The only person in their group who could see monsters was the junior high school student. Based on her description alone, he couldn't imagine what the supernatural creature looked like.

"Actually, you can repeat what the middle school student said to me," Ukyo said. "Maybe I can give you some confidence."

After thinking for a moment, Maori said on the phone that it was a big fat man with short arms, long and thin fingers, and was very deformed. It had four eyes, horns on its head, and a red body.

"Isn't that pretty detailed?" Ukyo said. "Sounds a bit like the demonic protagonist from the movie Hellboy. The weight thing doesn't make sense, but size isn't a constant. Maybe he showed off a lot of sushi when he came to the human world."

Mao Li laughed awkwardly twice to show his respect. He couldn't understand Ukyo's sense of humor.

The image of a red, horned demon is a classic, even depicted in the Bible. If it were a traditional "Western demon," holy water and a cross would be its ultimate killer.

"Silent people" have never been recorded in the Bible, but are a terrifying image invented by modern people. However, demons are different. There are many things that can deal with demons, but Ukyo is not sure whether those things can kill demons. Holy water and salt seem to have only a dispelling effect on demons.

Ukyo felt that he needed to worry. Judging from Maori's description, the "hunting plan" they mentioned might just be a "capture plan". After all, they did not prepare anything that could kill the devil.

"Where is the grave you prepared for him?"

"Three Rivers Park."

"Why are you there again?"

"We don't want to either, but there's a summer festival going on at Mikawa Park tonight. Target is always a fan of these kinds of festivals, and he'll definitely go to any festival no matter where it is."

Summer festivals are a general term for various folk activities held during the summer, with no fixed time or location. The more formal summer festivals known to Ukyo include the Kanda Matsuri in Tokyo and the Tenjin Matsuri in Osaka. There are over a thousand other summer festivals, large and small, offering a wide variety of offerings.

It's common for managers of open spaces to collect stall fees under the pretext of "holding a festival." This is common during student holidays, and Ukyo suspects that this is also the case in Mikawa Park.

Although a paranormal attack occurred in that area a few days ago, many people avoid it, there are many people in the world who are not afraid of ghosts. Many horror attractions promote themselves as "genuinely scary" to attract more visitors. Many curious people specifically seek out these places and are not interested in places that are not scary or dangerous.

Ukyo searched online for tonight's festival and found that the style of the promotional posters was indeed very eerie. The organizers were using the supernatural gimmick to lure people in.

“Is it really feasible to do it in a place with so many people?”

"We've prepared salt bullets and holy water air guns. We'll fire as soon as we confirm our target. There won't be any problems. The Lansters in the prison are very afraid of these two things. Once a possessed person gets touched by them, they won't dare to come out for a long time."

You Jing asked again, since the target has been identified, why can't they take action when he is in a less crowded environment, or simply carry out a targeted arrest after he returns home.
