Science Fiction: Starting from Obtaining Sophon

And when it comes to confessing one's feelings, how could she possibly talk about other people's confessions?

As one of the most beautiful girls at Teitan High School, she has actually received quite a few confessions of love, but she has missed them all by using various unexpected methods.

For example, if someone deliberately approaches her and pretends to be pursuing another girl, she will foolishly help them deliver love letters. If someone says that a friend of theirs is pursuing a girl and hopes she can help them come up with some ideas, she will actually go and think of some ideas.

I had no idea that when someone says, "I have a friend who likes you," it actually means that he himself likes you.

Eventually, one of the boys couldn't hold back any longer and confessed his feelings to her face to face.

But unexpectedly, this straightforward woman actually thought that the other person was practicing confessing to the girl he liked.

So she happily helped him refine the details of his confession, leaving the boy both amused and exasperated.

Chapter 133 Underground Space

Upon hearing this, Sonoko immediately wanted to explain that she had put in so much effort and gone through so much danger, and that this was not the end. She still had to confess her feelings!

But at this moment, Genda spoke up, "Thank you, Sonoko. I was too slow to realize that this engagement has indeed caused us a lot of trouble. It's true, we live in modern society now. How can we let an engagement decide someone's marriage like before?"

He looked at Sonoko earnestly and said, "How about this, Sonoko? After we get back, I'll go to the Suzuki family home, find Uncle Suzuki, and cancel this engagement. That way, we can be friends again as new people."

Sonoko is going crazy. How did these two even do reading comprehension?

Are these the keywords, paragraph summaries, and central ideas in your own 'article'?

These two are really, both of them are failing!

Ran quickly interjected, "Genda, Sonoko didn't mean that. She actually wanted to..."

Genda quickly said, "Mouri-kun, I understand. Sonoko is a very kind girl. She's afraid of hurting me. Actually, I've thought about many things a long time ago. You can't force a relationship. If you have to use something like an engagement to bind a girl, it's extremely unfair to her."

"On the contrary, it would be better to temporarily end this relationship and continue to get along well as good friends. Maybe we can even break free from the constraints we used to have. Although it's hard to say goodbye, after all, you can't find another rich girl like Sonoko in the entire East City who is both beautiful and kind."

Seeing the regretful expression on Gendagawa's face, Sonoko cried out in her heart:

"Since you think so highly of me, then why don't you try to get me? I'm easy to get, you'll get me in no time!"

Thanks to Gendagawa's superb acting skills—no, his sincere efforts—the matter was decided happily.

Sonoko looked utterly dejected; her delicate and pretty face was almost crumbling. Ran felt a pang of heartache seeing this and could only pull her best friend aside to comfort her.

Yoko and Haruko, on the other hand, felt extremely sorry for Gendagawa.

The great hero who had just saved everyone by riding on auspicious clouds was unwilling to hurt the kind girl, so he would rather suffer himself than let her be unhappy.

What a great idol drama script! What a perfect character design for a devoted hero!

One of them was adorably naive and the other was innocent and sweet; both of them had been completely won over by Genda River, and her feminine sensibilities and maternal instincts had been aroused at once.

If it weren't for the fact that they were in public, they would have hugged Genda Kawa tightly, letting him feel the warmth and pressure from society.

However, the two still served Genda River food properly, and Sonoko, who was standing nearby, quickly rallied.

He thought to himself, "He just praised me. Obviously, he likes me. It's just that now that the Genji Group has gone bankrupt, he's not the young master he used to be, so he feels he's not good enough for me. No way, A-Chuan, how could such an outstanding man like you not be good enough for me?"

"I, Suzuki Sonoko, may be a woman of unparalleled beauty, but you are also exceptionally talented. Moreover, you are my hero; you protected my life, and I will protect your loyalty with my whole heart."

After making a vow in his heart, he regained his composure and his gaze became even more resolute.

Shinichi Kudo, standing to the side, was practically going crazy!

What did he see?!

Although he's a typical straight man and doesn't understand Gendagawa's tactics, his intuition is still very sharp, being the king of jealousy in Asia.

It's like a woman who's very sensitive to the manipulative women around her, but can't see through her male best friend's ulterior motives.

Men have an innate sensitivity to the moves other men use.

He vaguely sensed that Genda River was cheating, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it or know what he was after. He just felt a little irritated.

Finally, after Genda River had 'rested' enough and gotten out of bed, he hurriedly spoke:

"Genda, we should leave here quickly, otherwise, if there are any new monsters, we might not be able to stop them."

He had been worried about this, even feeling extremely anxious.

The girls immediately tensed up.

"Shinichi is right. Genda and everyone else, let's hurry up and go."

Genda shook his head and said, "Don't worry, everyone. Although I don't know much about these monsters, they are obviously extremely perceptive. The shadow that Yoko saw on the window downstairs was actually one of these monsters."

"I just fought two monsters so fiercely, from upstairs to downstairs. If there were going to be a third one, I would have jumped out long ago. I definitely wouldn't have waited until now."

Upon hearing this, Shinichi Kudo realized what was happening and nodded, saying:

"That's right. If there really is a third monster, then it's probably true."

Despite saying that, Genda still made everyone stay in the room, and then carefully went out to check the surroundings. After confirming that there were no monsters, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and came out of the room.

Shinichi Kudo went straight to the monster's corpse and began to examine it.

For a detective bursting with curiosity, human corpses are common sights, but monster corpses are a first for him. If he hadn't been scared, he would have come out to study them long ago.

"What a terrifying body! Even after death, it can still reach this level!"

He had just put on his gloves and pressed down on the monster's body, feeling as if he were pressing down on steel. He then took out a small knife he always carried and tried to cut the monster's skin.

But when you scratch it hard, there's not a single mark on the monster's skin.

This made him even more curious, and he began to use all his strength to poke and scratch the monster's body, but it was like scraping a cup; he couldn't budge it at all.

He tried tapping the centipede leg on the monster's back with his knife, which made a sound like metal. With a full-force slash, a nick appeared on the knife!

That's what made him utter the sigh he just made.

He thought to himself, "The toughness of this monster's body is probably no less than that of steel. Genda River was actually able to behead it head-on. It's unbelievably strong. I wonder how he developed such strength."

The girls were still afraid of the monster and dared not get close to it.

The girls only breathed a sigh of relief after Genda River dragged the two monsters' corpses out and threw them into the yard.

"Genda, although we are safe now, the appearance of monsters is far from the end; it's probably just the beginning. Where did these monsters come from? What kind of beings are they? If we don't find out, the danger may not truly be over."

Gendagawa nodded: "That's true."

The best way to solve a problem is to find its root cause; merely addressing the surface will only lead to endless troubles.

During the thorough search of the entire castle, a new discovery was made: a basement door had been opened, and Somoko detected that the basement connected to a very deep space, far beyond Somoko's detection limits.

Moreover, two types of traces were found at the gate: one was the footprints of normal humans, and the second was the footprints of the two monsters that were killed.

More importantly, the footprints of humans are moving inward, while the footprints of monsters are moving outward, which already explains a lot.

Chapter 134 Distortion, Shinichi Kudo!

This leads to two possible scenarios.

The first possibility is that someone entered this dusty basement, released the monsters sealed inside, and then the monsters killed and devoured the person before entering the castle!

This is the most reasonable explanation; if this world is still a purely scientific world, then this is the only possibility.

However, after learning about the existence of the mutants, Gendagawa had a second guess, which was even more chilling.

That is, this basement contains something that can cause mutations, which caused two unlucky thieves who accidentally broke into the dusty basement to be mutated and transformed into the monsters they are now!

If that's the case, it's like opening Pandora's box; going inside would likely be very dangerous!

But not going in isn't an option either. I still know too little about the mutants. To make the right judgment, I need the right information.

He even had a vague feeling that the destruction of the Genda family was probably closely related to something below, and that even the death of the original owner of this body might be related to it!

Moreover, he also has a way to deal with danger. The method is very simple: in addition to having Tomoko scan with all her might and be ready to deal with danger at any time, he also needs to bring Shinichi Kudo into the mix.

As the chosen one of the original timeline, he did not have the same BUGG-like abilities as other chosen ones, such as frequently defying fate, breaking through in battle, or being invincible among his peers.

But this guy is someone with the aura of death.

The Death Aura means that, apart from those close to you, everyone else's life or death is random.

So taking him on all the adventures is like an archaeologist stuffing business cards of leaders into coffins unearthed from large tombs.

As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt its debtor. With the Grim Reaper here, even the Black and White Impermanence should step aside. In a crucial moment, they can even draw some fire, which isn't a bad choice.

Most importantly, once you tell him about your discovery, he will absolutely not give up and will definitely go down to see for himself.

So, Conan, no, I should say Corgi, is just too good at scouting.

I had already silently made arrangements for his funeral in my mind—no, I meant for his work.

Making good use of certain so-called protagonist traits can also be a shortcut to success.

People like Conan are perfect for teaming up with in dungeons. His aura can be shared with those around him, so they generally won't die, just like the Mikasa Suicide Squad made up of those kids.

Genta Kojima, Ayumi Yoshida, and Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, despite their underdeveloped brains and completely undeveloped cerebellums, are still able to survive various incidents because they share Conan's aura.

Of course, if it's a protagonist like Han Li, you absolutely shouldn't go into a dungeon with him, or you'll die very quickly.

After a moment's thought, Genda said, "Kudo, I actually made a discovery just now. I found an opened basement in a room in the corner of the back hall. I don't even know about that basement, and I don't know who opened it."

Shinichi Kudo's eyes lit up: "A basement that's never been discovered before? Let's hurry over and take a look!"

He took the lead and walked towards the back hall, passing through two dark corridors. Then, under the guidance of Genda River, he opened a door and entered a suite inside the room. Only from the corner and through a wall that had been smashed open could he see a dark hole.
