Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

“I wasn't some ‘Mask’ to begin with. That nickname was just a label created by the world to refer to the person they imagined I was when I took action. You're different, ‘Kira’… Heh, ‘Kira,’ how amusing.”

Seeing Yaehoshizuki laugh as he repeated my codename, Nagami Light was rendered speechless, feeling the shame of having his chuunibyou history exposed. He retorted, slightly flustered.

“Hey, hey, hey, it's not something to be ashamed of. Your attitude… makes me feel embarrassed…”

“That's precisely why you're not his match, Light.”

L, who was standing nearby, said calmly.

“You're too emotional. Luckily, you didn't become his enemy back then. You should know that this guy excels at breaking down people's psychological defenses.”

Yaehoshizuki retorted sharply.

“If you really want to be grateful, you should be grateful that I possess foresight and a level of thinking that transcends ordinary people. Otherwise, when you joined that Special Investigation Team at the Metropolitan Police Department, I would have offed you a long time ago. Would you still have time to chat idly here?”

L: “…Then thank you for not killing me.”

Yaehoshizuki waved his hand magnanimously.

“Hey, we're bros, no need to be polite.”

L: “…”

Seeing L being retorted into silence by Yaehoshizuki, Nagami Light couldn't help but reveal a hint of a smile, but then he said with some regret.

“It's a pity that Ryuzaki never awakened the ability of Soul Manifestation in the end. If he could also awaken that kind of power, investigating and solving cases would probably be much easier.”

Upon hearing this, L didn't take it seriously.

“Perhaps that's why, despite meeting all the conditions, I didn't awaken the ability of Soul Manifestation. After all, for me, if all cases could be investigated through special powers, and the challenge was lost, life would become too boring for me…”

Yaehoshizuki expressed his agreement.

“That's right, so you're a truly awful person. You're just purely someone who seeks amusement. Such dangerous power can't be allowed to be possessed by you.”

L replied calmly: “If I weren't this kind of person, I would have directly reported you to the Metropolitan Police Department when I first suspected your identities. There wouldn't have been that opportunity to meet with you two privately. From this perspective, it's precisely because I'm this kind of person that I can live to this day, and that I can experience so many interesting things with you.”

Yaehoshizuki looked disgusted: “Ew… why does it sound like a confession? I won't be happy to receive your confession.”

Then, Yaehoshizuki looked at Nagami Light and asked.

“By the way, you said you had something to tell me, what is it? It's not just because you finally have the chance to spend a week alone in Tokyo with Kazumi, so you deliberately showed up to disgust me, right?”

“Kazumi… Tojimi Kazumi? Isn't she Sakurajima Mai's younger sister… Never mind, it's you after all.”

Nagami Light initially wanted to say, how could Sakurajima Mai's younger sister, Tojimi Kazumi, come to Tokyo alone with Yaehoshizuki, but upon second thought, it's Yaehoshizuki, so it's normal.

But then, he remembered the purpose of his trip, frowned, took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and slapped it directly on Yaehoshizuki's chest. Since they met, this was the first time Nagami Light had shown anger towards Yaehoshizuki.

“Look, look at the good deed you've done!!!”

Yaehoshizuki caught the piece of paper and looked down, discovering that it was a future aspiration survey form submitted by students to the school, and in the name column, the four characters “Nagami Sayu” were written, and in the column for the high school she hoped to attend in the future…

《Kyoto City Soubu High School》

“Oh? Your sister wants to study at Soubu High? A beautiful girl from Tokyo actually wants to run to Kyoto to attend high school, that's really rare. Is it because Nagami Souichirou is stationed in Kyoto? Oh dear, so she wants to reunite the family, so that Mom and Dad can live together and not be separated, and chose to go to a strange city to attend high school, what a filial and sensible daughter.”

“Bullshit, are you still spouting nonsense here with me!?”

Nagami Light's emotions were very agitated, and he clenched his teeth.

“To reunite the family? Maybe that's part of the reason, but why, why did Sayu specifically want to go to Soubu High? You should know that her original aspiration was the private Daikoku Gakuen where I studied!”

“Oh dear, then you have to reflect on yourself.”

Yaehoshizuki patted Nagami Light's shoulder and said earnestly.

“It's probably because of you that Sayu is disappointed in that private Daikoku Gakuen, and even the high schools in Tokyo as a whole. By the way, you're about to go to Todai, right? I get it, Sayu wants to go to Kyoto to study high school, she's trying to avoid you!”

Nagami Light laughed in anger upon hearing this.

“You're still quibbling with me here, right? It's obvious that it's because you're in Kyoto, so Sayu wants to go to Kyoto, wants to go to Soubu High!”

“Hey, you can't talk nonsense, I don't have that much charm, you really overestimate me.”

“You…”

Nagami Light was speechless for a moment, after all, although it was the truth, it was too much to admit that his sister, Nagami Sayu, wanted to go to Kyoto Soubu High to study because of Yaehoshizuki, or even wanted to…

“Forget it, think positively, Light.”

L walked up, patted Nagami Light's shoulder, and spoke in the same earnest tone as Yaehoshizuki, but it made people feel like he was trying to suppress his laughter and pretending to be serious.

“Girls can't be kept forever.”

…

That night, in the Shibuya commercial district of Tokyo.

“Tokyo, it's really lively.”

Seeing Tojimi Kazumi unable to hide her excitement, looking around curiously, as if it was her first time coming to such a bustling area, Yaehoshizuki couldn't help but be curious.

“Didn't you study in Tokyo before? Why do you act like it's your first time here?”

“Because it really is my first time here.”

Tojimi Kazumi sighed slightly, and was about to answer when she noticed that many young girls around were sizing up Yaehoshizuki beside her, her brows furrowed slightly, she directly grabbed Yaehoshizuki's arm, looked at those women who harbored ill intentions towards Yaehoshizuki, her eyes revealed loss and frustration, and then she smiled contentedly and said.

“You know, before I went to high school, my mother controlled me very strictly, basically I didn't have time to go out shopping with friends. After I went to high school, I had to work hard as an idol in practice, and I also had to make sure that my grades didn't decline, so I didn't have time to come out either. Even if I occasionally had time to come out, because I was usually too busy, my relationship with my friends became estranged, and I couldn't find someone suitable to go shopping with, so it became like this.”

“Hoh, you've had it hard too.”

“What about you?”

Tojimi Kazumi wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to be alone to learn more about Yaehoshizuki.

“When you first went to high school… when you first met Miko, when you first awakened that kind of power, you had to balance your schoolwork, exorcism requests, and consider future plans, you must have been too busy to relax, right?”

“I was so happy at that time.”

Yaehoshizuki said with a chuckle.

“I could happily kill and eat every day, and I didn't need to worry about schoolwork at all, after all, I'm always number one, it was so much fun at that time.”

“Fun…”

Hearing Ye Xing's description, Toyohama and Hana didn't know how to comment. After all, as normal people, it was hard for them to imagine that Ye Xing felt no pressure at all in that situation, and even enjoyed it.

“Now that the eerie incidents are over, will you… feel bored?”

“Bored? That's impossible.”

Ye Xing stared at Toyohama and Hana's profiles and said softly.

“Being with you… and everyone, how could I be bored? This is the meaning of protecting the world.”

Toyohama and Hana were both shy and a little angry when they heard this, and couldn't help but gently pinch Ye Xing's arm, muttering softly.

“Even at a time like this, when you're alone with me, you still don't forget to mention everyone… you're really thoughtful, hmph.”

“Yes, I'm just such a thoughtful person.”

Hearing Ye Xing completely ignore the jealousy in her words, and instead look proud, Toyohama and Hana were about to complain, but heard Ye Xing say immediately after.

“That's why, when I went to book a hotel this afternoon, I only booked one room.”

…

Later that evening, inside the hotel room.

“That… that…”

Toyohama and Hana sat on the edge of the bed with a slightly red face. After taking a shower, she was wearing a suspender vest, and her snow-white and delicate shoulders and neck were flushed.

She glanced at Ye Xing sitting next to her, and asked in a voice as soft as a mosquito's hum.

“Can I… can I really do it… will you… will you be disappointed in me later, think I… think I…”

“Think you're not as good as Sakurajima Mai?”

“Yes… you really did see through my thoughts again…”

Listening to Toyohama and Hana's slightly lonely words, Ye Xing restrained his smile, and after standing up, came to Toyohama and Hana, gently put his hands on her snow-white and delicate shoulders, and looked directly at Toyohama and Hana's blushing and lovely face, and said very seriously in a soft voice.

“In my heart, there's no need to compare you and Sakurajima Mai at all. Mai is Mai, you are you. You can't replace her, and she can't replace you. You two, and everyone, are the most important people to me.”

Hearing this, Toyohama and Hana couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It wasn't that she was being pretentious or awkward, it was just that from childhood to adulthood, her mother had always compared her with her half-sister Sakurajima Mai. Although Toyohama and Hana liked her sister Sakurajima Mai very much, she was also very unwilling, because her sister relationship with Sakurajima Mai was used to compare with her.

Especially at this time… especially… the object is Ye Xing.

“That's good…”

Looking at Ye Xing's expression, which was different from usual and full of seriousness, Toyohama and Hana's heart couldn't help but beat faster. She couldn't help but leaned forward and kissed him hard. Then, when their lips parted, she was a little embarrassed.

“That… this is my first kiss…”

“Me too.”

“Such an obvious lie won't make me happy.”

“Not哄you.”

Ye Xing took the initiative to kiss Toyohama and Hana. This time, he took the lead. After a dozen seconds, Toyohama and Hana's breathing became rapid, and her lovely and delicate face was flushed with emotion, which was very charming.

“My first kiss is automatically refreshed 24 hours a day.”

Chapter 587: Eriri Spencer Sawamura and Utaha Kasumigaoka's Collaboration

More than ten days later, inside the Private Toyonosaki Academy.

“Ugh… the graduation ceremony is finally over.”

Utaha Kasumigaoka muttered to herself, then looked at Eriri Spencer Sawamura and Ye Xing in front of her, and said with a rare gentle smile.

“To celebrate my successful graduation, let's have dinner together and then do something, shall we?”

Normally, Eriri Spencer Sawamura, who would always sing a different tune no matter what Utaha Kasumigaoka said, was like a different person at this moment. She glanced at Ye Xing standing next to her, and then coughed lightly twice.

“Well… for the sake of your graduation today, I have no objections.”

“Yes, I'm finally liberated.”

Utaha Kasumigaoka seemed to be really happy, but when she said the reason why she felt happy, it made Eriri Spencer Sawamura reveal that iconic fierce chihuahua expression again.

“Finally graduated from Private Toyonosaki Academy, which means… the life of being on par with Eriri Spencer Sawamura is finally over. Alas, it's really hard. I, the dignified Utaha Kasumigaoka, was actually on par with a guy like you for a full two years. This is enough to prove that most people in our school are complete idiots.”

“Tch… that should be my line, right!?”

Eriri Spencer Sawamura gritted her silver teeth and glared fiercely at Utaha Kasumigaoka.

“I'm actually on par with a dark-bellied and venomous-tongued guy like you, whose mind is full of yellow waste. That's an insult to me!”

“Heh heh, a doujinshi artist actually says my mind is full of yellow waste? That's really funny.”

“You…”

“I say, you two, that's enough.”

Just as Eriri Spencer Sawamura was about to launch an attack, using her two shining golden ponytails to whip Utaha Kasumigaoka, Ye Xing finally spoke.

“What kind of moe daily life are you two acting out, between a black-haired, long-haired, straight-haired, voluptuous beauty and a fair-skinned, tsundere twin-tailed girl? Although I like this kind of plot, it's best if they tear each other's clothes and black silk, and finally both of them are exhausted, panting, and kneeling on the ground with disheveled clothes, and there are many emotions such as disgust, disgust, anger, and sadness in their eyes, causing sparkling tears, but this is after all inside the school. Utaha, you have graduated, but Eriri, you don't want your violent and willful side to be discovered by these classmates, do you?”

Hearing Ye Xing's words, Eriri Spencer Sawamura belatedly noticed that there were many students from Private Toyonosaki Academy watching her and Utaha Kasumigaoka. After all, she and Utaha Kasumigaoka were originally the two most eye-catching beautiful girls in Private Toyonosaki Academy. Appearing alone would attract attention, let alone the two of them standing together.

“Tch… I'll talk to you after we get out!”

…

After leaving Private Toyonosaki Academy, Ye Xing looked at Utaha Kasumigaoka with a smile.

“What are your plans for the future? Going to college?”

“Going to college is a must. My major is literature, and several well-known universities have sent me special recruitment invitations.”

Utaha Kasumigaoka is, after all, a best-selling light novelist. With the popularity of the novel "Love Metronome", even if it hasn't been completed yet, as long as this is added to the resume, no university's literature department would reject such a talented genius.

What's more, since she entered Private Toyonosaki Academy, she has been the first in the grade in every exam. Just by this point, she can skip the provincial joint entrance examination or the special recruitment examinations of those schools and directly enroll.

“However…”

Utaha Kasumigaoka brushed her long hair behind her ear, moved closer to Ye Xing, and their shoulders gently touched each other.

She looked at Ye Xing with a smile on her face, and asked in a soft voice.
