"Xiao Lian!
Here, here! "
It was a Saturday, at the entrance of the business district.
"Chacha," Rena Kamijima followed the voice and found Chako.
"Sorry, sorry, I'm a little late today," Rena Kamijima said apologetically as she ran to Chako.
"It's fine, it's not our appointed time yet, I'm the one who came early," Chako shook her head, tilted her face, and revealed a cute smile.
Today was the first Saturday since the start of school. The weather was warm and the sun was shining brightly. Rena Kamijima and Chako had agreed to go shopping together.
Their main purpose was to buy some school supplies.
However, when two girls went shopping together, they would want to buy everything.
Speaking of which, Rena Kamijima was quite familiar with this street.
The mud incident happened next door ten months ago. They were now at the street where Rena Kamijima called Yuko Uejima when she ran away.
This was a well-known and prosperous business district, and it seemed like it had not been threatened by enemies recently. It was still in its original state without any signs of renovation.
The town Xiongying was in wasn't particularly big.
Although many professional heroes lived here, including some retired heroes, it wasn't a particularly big place.
But in essence, it wasn't a particularly big place, and it was easy to bump into acquaintances while walking.
"Wow!
Frogs are bragging!
Ashido!
Are you two shopping together today? "
They had just finished shopping in an accessory store when they looked up and saw two familiar figures looking at each other from a distance across the street.
Chako Hikari extended her hand and waved at them enthusiastically.
"Yes!"
Ashido also noticed them, so she extended her hands and made a trumpet gesture in front of her.
Chako giggled, pulled Rena Kamijima and ran to the other side.
The bridge wasn't far from where they were. They could reach the other side in about two to three minutes.
Dragged by her, Rena Kamijima stumbled as they ran. Suddenly, they bumped into a crowd.
Although it was Saturday, it didn't seem particularly lively today. In essence, it was still relatively empty.
Right now, the movie theater on the side had just finished a movie. A large wave of people rushed over, causing the road to become a little crowded.
"Ah — what a scary movie!"
"This ghost, let me tell you about that ghost …"
Among the crowd of people excitedly discussing the plot of the movie, there was a person who walked out alone. His face was as calm as water, and he was exceptionally eye-catching.
He looked like a very ordinary young man with a head of messy black hair. He wore a knitted hat on his head and wore ordinary casual clothes.
However, the expression on his face was very dispirited, unlike their teacher's. He had a desolate and hopeless feeling.
Rena Kamijima looked at him a few more times. She didn't see any other flaws, so she was too embarrassed to continue sizing him up. She followed Chako and ran to the other side.
It was almost lunchtime. The four of them had just met and started discussing where to eat lunch.
"I don't know what to eat. Why don't we find a normal restaurant?" Chako extended an index finger to her lower lip and raised her head to think.
Frogchai looked around at the surrounding shops. "I want to eat egg rice or curry a little."
Ashido extended her hand and said in a lively tone, "Hey!
Hey!
I want to eat sushi! "
Rena Kamijima turned her head and unexpectedly saw the man from just now. He stepped into an ordinary Japanese restaurant.
"I want to eat egg yaki a little. Let's go there?"
Rena Kamijima was a little concerned about the man from just now. It just so happened that the restaurant matched their choices. She extended her hand and pointed at the restaurant.
Chako looked over and nodded. "Okay, okay. I've eaten at that restaurant before. I think the taste is not bad.
Speaking of which, Xiao Lian really likes egg yaki. I think you often eat egg yaki in the canteen. "
Frogchai said, "So Xiao Lian likes egg yaki?
I didn't expect that. I thought people like Xiao Lian wouldn't like sweet food. "
"Egg yaki isn't that sweet." Ashido waved her hand and pointed in that direction.
"Then we've decided on the destination?
Let's go! "
"Hello, how many people are there?"
"Four!"
"Okay, this way please …"
Rena Kamijima followed the waiter inside and chose a seat near the bar counter.
She glanced at the bar counter and saw the man that she was very concerned about. The next moment, her eyes fell on a familiar figure.
"Hey, is that Hom?
Why is he here alone? "Tea Master Yu, who was at the side, saw Bang Jiao Jue and asked curiously.
Rena Kamijima noticed that there was no food on the bar counter in front of Bombardment Jelly. He was scrolling through his phone expressionlessly. It seemed like he had just come in.
"He should be eating here." Rena Kamijima guessed.
"If I remember correctly, Boomkun's house is not far from here."
That was why she chose to shop around here after leaving Bombardment House.
Frogchai tilted his head. "Is it because his family is not around, so he has to eat alone?
Should we invite him over to eat with us? "
Ashido suddenly said, "Hey, four of us girls are inviting a guy over for a meal?
But Hom does look a little lonely. It's so pitiful. "
"Xiao Lian, you are familiar with Hom, right?
Do you think we should invite him over? "
Rena Kamijima did not hear the question clearly. About 80% of her attention was on the dispirited man on the left of Bombardment Jelly. The remaining 20% of her attention was elsewhere. She did not hear Chako's question at all.
"Xiao Lian?" Chako Hikari asked again doubtfully.
She did not know why, but she had a bad feeling.
"Alright, I'll go ask him," Ueshima Rina replied with a sense of loss as she tightened her grip on the jewel around her neck.
She walked to Bombardment Jelly's side with the dispirited man behind her. "Boomkun?"
Bombardment Jelly had vaguely heard the voices of his classmates, but he could not make out what they were discussing, so he did not raise his head to look at them.
Now that Rena Kamijima walked directly in front of him, he raised his head to look at her.
"What's wrong?"
Bombardment Jelly asked expressionlessly. Rena Kamijima noticed that his phone was scrolling through the Hero news. The first one was the latest report on the No.2 Hero, Andwa.
This discovery made her hesitate for a moment. She vaguely knew that the relationship between the father and son of the Bombardment Family was rather subtle.
Now that the other party was doing something completely out of his style, Rena Kamijima suspected that she had disturbed something.
"I was out shopping with Chako and met Frogblowers … Little Mei Yu and Ashido, so we decided to have a meal together.
Seeing that you're here alone, I wanted to ask if you wanted to sit with us. "
Bombardment Jelly raised his head and looked at the table where the four girls were sitting. "No need, it's quite crowded over there. I'll sit here."
"About that, just add another stool to the side."
Bombardment Jelly still refused. "No need, I'm almost done here. Hurry up and finish eating, I need to go back and continue training."
This attitude was very clear, and Rena Kamijima did not intend to force it.
"Boomkun is really working hard. That's it then.
I hope Boomkun is happy eating! "
Rena Kamijima said with a smile. She turned around and wanted to return to her seat, but the moment she turned her head, she saw a pair of bloodshot eyes.
"Little girl," the dispirited man said slowly.
"Why don't you try to invite me over to eat with you guys?
I'm also a loner. "
Rena Kamijima's face suddenly became serious, and then she tried to calm herself down, returning the expression on her face to a normal state.
"Because Boomkun is our classmate, that's why I wanted to ask.
As for uncle, we don't know you … "
The dispirited man snorted coldly, and his face was a little dark.
"Everyone, everyone told me that."
"Because there's something going on at home, because there's something going on with my friends, because I'm not one of them … I'm the only one in this world.
No one cares about me, no one cares about me. What's the point of living in this world? "
Rena Kamijima instinctively took a step back, and bumped into Bombardment Jelly's chair, whose expression had become serious.
Obviously, the two of them intuitively realized that something bad might happen next.
In this individualistic society, the personality of a person who broke down and went berserk was much more terrifying than the personality of a criminal with ulterior motives.
Because they no longer cared about themselves. They just wanted to show all their emotions to others, which was why they were especially violent and violent.
"Quick!
Retreat! "
Bombardment Jelly took a step back when he saw black hair growing out of the man's body. He raised his hand and shot out an ice ball, drawing a mark on the ground.
"Go!
This man might become our enemy! "
The restaurant instantly became chaotic. Many people retreated to the door or the back of the restaurant in a panic.
However, the dispirited man was sitting on a single seat at the bar counter, and further away was the door. The door was not a suitable place to retreat.
The customers could only retreat to the back and rush to the workshop.
"Damn it," Bombardment Jelly and Rena Kamijima did not retreat, and neither did the three students behind them.
Chako Hikari hesitated for a moment. She glanced at the hair growing out of the potential enemy and slammed the table in front of her.
"Quick, throw these to the back!
Even if they're useless, at least we can block them! "
Chako Hikari had a gravity-free personality. Anything that she touched would become gravity-free, and she could toss it lightly.
Now, she could use these tables to the back as a shield.
Other than that, there was nothing else they could do.
They were in a public place, and the person in front of them was a potential enemy. They were just students from the Hero Course.
They were only students and did not have any heroic licenses, so they could not use their aggressive personalities on others.
Bombardment Jelly suddenly said, "Kamijima, can you hide the group of people at the back?"
Rena Kamijima glanced behind her. The restaurant manager was making a phone call to inform the Hero Course. The rest of the people were cowering at the back. Some were trembling, and some were used to it.
"Sure."
As soon as Rena Kamijima finished her sentence, the enemy in front of them went berserk.
The clumps of black hair rolled on the ground and leaped into the air. They crashed into the decorations in the restaurant, creating big holes in everything.
"No!" Chako widened her eyes.
"Normal furniture can't stop him at all."
"Ah."
Bombardment Jelly responded. He stretched out his right hand, and an ice wall stood between the three of them and the three students.
"If attack doesn't work, defense should work, right?"
Rena Kamijima pressed the fingerprint lock on her necklace and released her orb.
"Although people always say that this is a loophole in the law, it would be terrible if defense doesn't work."
She stretched out her hand, and the orb spun in her hand.
