Living your daily life in a shonen anime seems to be wrong.

Perhaps peace will come here, or perhaps it will only be a temporary calm.

But no matter what, she and her sister were going to have to leave this place.

Following Qiye doesn't seem like such a bad thing.

At the very least, I want to give my younger sister a better life.

Chapter 157: All Kinds

Things always revolve around the main character.

Qi Ye didn't know if he was the legendary protagonist, but he felt that he had encountered a lot of things recently.

Now, we've even encountered things like hijackings.

Yes, hijacking.

Instead of using the quick and convenient method of spatial teleportation to get to Japan, they chose to take a plane.

As a result, the plane was hijacked by a group of thugs.

"Life is truly full of unexpected events!"

Seven Nights sighed expressionlessly, his red left eye fixed on the thugs in front of him who were guarding everyone with weapons.

Himegami Akisa sat beside him, looking out the window at the clouds drifting by.

Frenda and Fremia sat in the front seats, their expressions unseen, but perhaps filled with terror.

Because everyone else is like that too.

Many people are even praying for God's protection.

However, some people remained relatively calm.

For example, there was a man sitting across the aisle from Qi Ye who also looked to be of East Asian descent.

Perhaps out of boredom, or perhaps genuinely interested in Qi Ye, the man spoke quietly.

"Japanese? Chinese?"

He asked that question.

Qi Ye slightly raised the brick and glanced at him.

I ignored him.

But the other party did not give up.

"I'm from Japan, I was just helping people find some business opportunities, I never expected to encounter something like this."

He continued talking to himself, seemingly unconcerned about the impending danger to his life.

It's important to understand that among all modes of transportation, airplanes are the kind of vehicles that either don't crash, or if they do, it's almost always a death sentence.

To remain so calm under such circumstances shows he's no ordinary person.

Qi Ye glanced at him again.

"You're being held hostage and still talking so much nonsense, aren't you afraid of getting killed?"

"Aren't you afraid at all too?"

The man was all smiles.

So, is it that Qiye isn't afraid of him, and he isn't afraid of her either?

No, that's not the main reason either.

"Besides, what's the use of being afraid? If it doesn't solve the problem, the outcome is the same whether you're afraid or not."

"Too."

Qi Ye nodded.

If we don't deal with those thugs, who knows what this plane might be used for?

Perhaps they would aim at a building and crash into it, and in the ensuing "boom" of flames and fire, everyone would be reduced to dust.

Of course, this "everyone" does not include Qiye and the three little girls.

He wasn't in a hurry to leave, he just kept yawning.

I had originally planned to take a nap on the plane, since I hadn't rested at all last night and had taken a few girls shopping for clothes this morning.

After that, we went straight to the plane without any time to rest.

Although not sleeping for a few days didn't have much of an impact on him, how could he change his decades-old sleeping habits so easily?

"Young man, aren't you afraid at all?"

The man spoke again.

Perhaps they just wanted to talk to someone to distract themselves from their anxiety.

As he spoke, he seemed to be feeling somewhat emotional.

"Actually, I'm very scared. If something happens, I'll never see my family again, my wife, and my daughter."

As he said this, he glanced at Himegami Akisa, who was sitting next to Nanaya.

"Is this your sister?"

"That's it."

Qi Ye nodded perfunctorily.

Anyway, she's not my biological sister, but a capable one.

Yes, it's the kind of competence, not the other kind, so please don't misunderstand.

The man, however, didn't seem to mind his perfunctory response and nodded to indicate that he understood.

"She's such a lovely little girl, just like my daughter."

As he said this, he suddenly pulled another photo out of his pocket.

Taking advantage of the guards' inattention, he handed it directly to Shichiya.

Qi Ye took the photo with a puzzled look on his face.

Sometimes he found it a bit strange, wondering if Japanese people particularly liked to carry photos of their family, lovers, or crushes on their bodies?

We often see this, especially in some anime works.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that there were three people: a man, a very young woman, and a little girl of about four or five years old with short brown hair.

"This is my daughter, isn't she adorable?"

The man said this.

Then he seemed to sigh.

"I've been away from home for a long time, and I was planning to go back for a visit this time, but I didn't expect to encounter something like this. Now it's really hard to say whether I can go home."

"..."

Qi Ye remained silent.

I stared at the photo for a while.

Then, she turned to look at the man.

"Excuse me, may I ask your... honorable name?"

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Seemingly remembering this, the man smiled sheepishly.

Then, I gave a brief self-introduction.

"My name is Misaka Tabikake. Nice to meet you, though we probably won't have a future together."

"Of course there will be no future between us. My sexual orientation is perfectly normal."

"...Huh?"

"However..."
