Super Fighting Tokyo.

"Hibiki! Let's go to the gym together tonight!"

"No way... I did leg training yesterday, and my muscles are still sore..."

"In that case, how about we go to my family's boxing gym?"

"Wouldn't that be even more tiring?"

"..."

After listening for a while, Bai Mucheng suddenly noticed that the sounds outside the car were perfectly clear.

Yihua was very proud of himself. "The Metropolitan Police Department has such high technology! They used some kind of soundproof sound system that allows outside sounds to come in directly, making it very convenient for eavesdropping!"

Shiramu Cheng: "..."

I'm starting to feel that the people on this bus aren't exactly positive characters.

Just as Shiraki Cheng was sighing, Hope suddenly frowned, as if she had discovered something, and pointed in a direction, saying, "That guy is clearly not ordinary..."

? !

Everyone on the bus immediately perked up.

But upon closer inspection, the person Hope was pointing at was not a girl—not even a high school student—but a fit adult male following behind a female high school student.

Both Ichika and Hana are experts at judging people, so they came to a conclusion instantly.

That man was no ordinary fitness enthusiast; he was definitely the type who was "very good at fighting," and even had a bloody aura!

"That guy must have killed someone, right?!"

Yi Hua noticed something more and asked in surprise, "Is he some young lady's bodyguard? Or some other suspicious person?"

"..."

Shiramu Cheng also looked up, and after just one glance, his expression changed drastically, and he slapped his face with a loud "smack".

"?!"

The atmosphere inside the car tensed as everyone felt a chill run down their spines.

Then, Bai Mucheng muttered to himself, "My sister..."

Everyone was even more confused, "What??"

"It's my younger sister and Maruk."

Bai Mucheng rubbed his temples, feeling utterly overwhelmed. "My younger sister also goes to Huangying School. The guy next to her is... her new friend. He's probably here to pick her up from school."

"..."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the car stared at each other, unsure of what to say.

Hana spoke up, trying to smooth things over, saying, "That's alright then, let's not cause any more trouble. Let's find that Hongo Hime-sensei..."

But that's obviously a bit premature.

As soon as he finished speaking, Maruk suddenly looked at the van, then rushed over in a few steps, opened the van door, and greeted him.

"Ah, it really is my big brother!"

Maruk waved his hand vigorously, while holding the ice cream that Yusa had bought for him in his other hand.

Upon seeing this, Yi Hua was stunned. "This car has one-way windows, how did you see Brother Bai Mu?"

Maruk looked completely innocent. "With my eyes!"

Shiramu explained from the side, "He is a modified soldier—his eyes should also be quite special."

"..."

Clearly, this explanation did nothing to help; it only made the other three people in the car more confused.

At the same time, Arisa also came over.

While eating her ice cream, she greeted Bai Mucheng, "Hey, bro, hanging out with your new friend? What are you doing at the Huangying school gate?"

"..."

Hope and the others thought that Bai Mucheng would brush it off, since what they were going to do wasn't exactly a good thing.

But Shiraki Cheng remained calm. "We're looking for a student named 'Hongo Hina,' who's in the same grade as you. Do you know her?"

That's way too blunt!

The three people in the car felt a chill run down their spines and couldn't understand what was happening.

However, Shiraki Cheng had his own theory.

"I didn't want to bother Yusa, but now that she knows, why should I lie?"

Everyone: "..."

That makes so much sense! But can my younger sister, who's a high school student, really understand?

It really works!

Arisa nodded. "Yes, I know him. Hongo is a good student and has a good reputation..."

She looked around and pointed to the other side of the street, "Look, she's over there by the school gate, the one who was just saying goodbye to her friend."

Bai Mucheng gave a thumbs up, "Great, bring her over!"

Arisa nodded, "Okay!"

After saying that, he ran off in a flash to find "Hongo Hime".

"..."

The series of events left the other three speechless, feeling that the siblings' level of acceptance and thought process were quite outrageous.

And that young man named "Maruk," is ice cream really that delicious?

"--call!"

Seeing the scene in complete chaos, Yi Hua let out a long sigh and decided to cut through the mess quickly, forcibly clearing his mind.

"In short, with Shiraki's sister's help, Hongo Hina should agree to talk to us. The next step is to figure out how to persuade her to play in the competition."

He hoped to remind her, "Don't forget to test her strength; leave it to me."

Yi Hua frowned. "Be careful, don't treat her like an ordinary high school girl—she's really dangerous."

"..."

While the group waited, Hana suddenly noticed that in the distance—where Shiraki's sister and Hongo Hime seemed to be with other people gathered.

They were three adult men, clearly prepared and with a specific objective.

"Hey! Look, are those two being bothered by someone?"

……

……

Streets and alleyways.

Three foreigners in suits stepped forward and blocked Hina Hongo and Arisa Sakurai, who had come to find her.

"Nice to meet you, we're working for IDEAL."

The scarred man at the head of the group revealed a corner of a dagger at his waist.

"Hina Hongo... right? If you don't want to suffer, tell us the whereabouts of the God's Army's 'chemical weapons'."

Chapter 48 Three Against Three

Royal Sakura Girls' Academy—a famous "super rich girl school"—naturally has security guards who are not just for show.

But the three foreigners in suits were clearly prepared and acted with great caution.

The alleyway where they blocked people happened to be in a blind spot for the security guards at the school gate. The surrounding area was deserted, so even if they shouted, no one would notice.

The only "unexpected" thing was the sudden appearance of another female high school student.

But that doesn't really matter, since the three of them only have one goal—

Hongo Himeko.

Although the high school girls were all wearing school uniforms, the three were confident that they would not mistake their target because Hina Hongo's "eyes" were quite distinctive.

Her eyes were nothing special, but on her deep blue corneas—her pupils were two five-pointed stars.

In addition, her light pink hair, long flowing hair, and beautiful face make her easy to spot.

"..."

The three approached step by step, squeezing Hina and Arisa into the alley; their intentions were clearly hostile.

However, Ji Nai was completely oblivious to the tense atmosphere and continued to smile.

She pointed at the three people in front of her, then turned to Arisa beside her and asked, "Sakurai-san, you said your brother wanted to see me. Which of these three is your brother?"

Yarn shook her head.

Hina immediately understood and looked at the three people in front of her again, "You said you work for 'IDEAL'? That doesn't sound like a department of the Metropolitan Police Department..."

"You talk too much nonsense."

Seeing that no one was around, the scarred man at the head of the group simply pulled out a dagger. "After the destruction of the God's Army, a batch of highly lethal chemical weapons went missing. Intelligence indicates that you took them with you."

"Little sister, are you going to tell the truth, or do you want to play with your uncle?"

"..."

"Are you sure? Uncle, you might die..."

Ji Nai tilted her head to observe, and continued to speculate, "IDEAL... is it a foreign criminal organization? They've got their eyes on the chemical weapons made by the God's Army, so they've come after me?"

“My adoptive parents’ house also has security personnel, so you can’t sneak in. You can only ambush me on my way home from school.”

"Hmm...you guys probably didn't bring any guns, right? Otherwise, there would be no need to carry daggers. It's probably because the Metropolitan Police Department has been very active lately, and it's inconvenient to carry smuggled guns on your person?"
