"OK, I won't be polite."

Rhodes nodded with a smile and enjoyed the food in front of him.

Looking at him devouring the food, Busujima Saeko couldn't help but chuckle.

For those who cook, the happier the diners are with their food, the greater the recognition she will receive.

She He propped up his elbows, raised his chin and watched Rhodes eating quietly. The golden sunshine outside the window shone in, filtered by the green plants, and was beautiful and beautiful.

For a moment, this felt like a peaceful time.

"What's wrong, don't you want to eat?"

Rhode noticed her gaze and asked strangely

"No, I was just thinking about something."She pursed her lips, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and took two hurried bites.

"Can you tell me what you are thinking about?"

Rhodes was inevitably a little curious. What could he think of when this girl stared at him?

Busujima Saeko was silent for a moment, and his lowered eyes became darker.

"I'm thinking, why doesn't someone as powerful as Rhodes choose to become a hero?"

"After all, with your strength, you can definitely be promoted to an S-class hero, right?"

"It turns out to be this. Rhodes felt funny,"How do you know I'm not a hero?""

Hearing this, she was stunned.

"You mean, you are actually the hero?"

"Then why didn't I see you in the roster announced by the Hero Association?"

Rhodes smiled and did not answer.

Instead, he changed the topic.

"What about you, why don't you choose to be a hero?"

"I've seen you fight desperately to protect others twice. It would be more beneficial to your life if you became a hero."

Bujima Saeko was speechless, and her expression darkened visibly.

Just when Rhodes was wondering if she had said the wrong thing, she finally spoke softly.

"Actually, I don’t fight to protect others."

"I just enjoy the feeling of releasing my power when fighting."

"Compared with other heroes, people like me seem to be fighting, but in fact they don’t have a heroic heart at all."

"Therefore, it is better for me not to become a hero."

After hearing what she said, Rhodes couldn't laugh or cry.

Was it because he was afraid that his virtue was not worthy of his qualifications?

Having such an idea just shows that she has the qualifications to become a hero.

"No, there is no conflict between enjoying fighting and protecting others."

"If you are really just a violent maniac, then why do you risk your life to fight those weirdos?"

"When you encounter danger that you can't fight, you could just run away, but you still choose to fight."

Rhodes said softly, the girl opposite her eyes were blank, as if she couldn't believe that everything Rhodes said was describing herself.

"In fact, you still have the heart to consider others, right?"

"Don’t deny yourself just because of your personality. There are many weird guys among S-class heroes."

"Like, sexy criminal or something."

Bujima Saeko was quite moved at first, but when she heard the last words, her face suddenly fell.

Is this really good?

Compare her with that kind of sexual pervert.

"Well, I think I understand what you mean."

"But let me clarify, I am definitely not a pervert like a sexy criminal."

She waved her hands stiffly and glanced at Rhodes resentfully.

"Haha, just kidding."

Rhode frowned in embarrassment.

"I just think that more extreme metaphors can make people understand better"

"But you're going too extreme."Bujima Saeko had a bitter look on her face.

The next second, she laughed again.

"But thank you anyway"

"I feel much better. Seeing her like this, Rhodes also nodded slightly.

The two chatted for a while, and it was getting late.

So he said goodbye and returned to his home.

When Busujima Saeko sent Rhodes to the door, she also ate a little I was shocked.

It turned out that the two of them lived on the same floor!

……

…… at the same time.

The dim underground laboratory is full of biological culture chambers containing various physical tissues. In the depths of darkness, there are more than a dozen figures standing in front of the big screen.

"The life signal of Experimental Subject No. 92 suddenly stopped."

"What's going on? Did the hero take action?"

"It's a strange guy."

On the screen, the scene of the weirdo being burned was played over and over again. Behind him, Rhodes' image was enlarged several times.

"This person is not recorded in the hero list published by the Hero Association."

"His flames are not realized by a fire-breathing device, it seems more like a super power."

"It's really strange. Why does he look so familiar to me?"

"etc.——"A person suddenly remembered something and immediately began to control the screen to change the picture.

Soon, the zombie monster incident that happened in Ginkgo Academy emerged.

"He was the one who defeated Experimental Subject No. 79 last time!"

"It turned out to be him!"

"I thought he just had a strong body, but I didn't expect that he had the superpower to control fire."

"Please report these two things to the main body."

Under the light, these people were dressed in uniform white, with numbers similar to numbers embroidered on their chests.

While they were discussing, an eyed man in a black suit slowly walked over.

"No need to bother, I already know."

Kinos pushed his eyes, looked at Rhodes on the screen quietly, and suddenly chuckled.

"A powerful body and mysterious superpowers, isn't this the best material for the new human being that I'm so hard to pursue?"

"Since the collapse of that organization more than ten years ago, the research on human superpowers has stagnated and even set back for decades."

"Although I am interested in replicating the superpower experiments, I really don’t understand the research on superpowers. Maybe this person can help me change the current situation."

The evolution of human beings is the ultimate dream that Jinos strives to pursue.

He once had two ideas, one was physical transformation and strengthening at the genetic level, and the other was strengthening the spiritual level, that is, superpowers.

However, even if he is extremely talented, it is impossible for him to take care of both directions at the same time.

So he chose to take the first path first, genetic modification.

After decades of hard work, he achieved great success.

Not only did he create many powerful new species, he also rejuvenated himself and got rid of the shackles of lifespan.

This gave him more time to conduct deeper and broader research.

Genos originally wanted to start research on superpowers after his life was worry-free.

But an incident that happened more than a decade ago put his plans on hold.

The world's largest superpower research organization was destroyed by the explosion of the current S-class hero, and countless research materials were destroyed in one blow.

There are only a few superpowers left in the world today, including the trembling Tatsumaki.

The shortage of experimental data and experimental materials forced Kinos to give up research in this area and turned around to continue in-depth research on gene editing.

Now, he seemed to have found excellent research material.

It can provide him with research ideas in two directions at the same time.

"Even if he comes hard, I still want to study his body"

"Send an envoy to make contact and invite him to our Evolution House."
