"Hey, why are we being so polite? Speaking of which, I made some extra pocket money today. How about we invite Shiina to go shopping this weekend? I happen to have something I want to buy."
That big bad guy gave her a gift, she can't just leave without giving anything in return.
We need to prepare a return gift.
Chapter 114: The Disarrayed Lady Mori, the Necklace Barrier is Real
Upon receiving the invitation from Nibutani Mori Natsumi, Kato Megumi's eyes lit up, and she immediately nodded in agreement.
"I'm fine with it. I'll ask Shiina-kun later."
"Okay, then it's settled!"
With cheerful steps, Nibutani Morika and Kato Megumi entered a small alley together.
Suddenly, Kato Megumi seemed to realize something and subconsciously turned around to look.
"What's wrong, Kato-san?" Nibutani Morika asked, looking at her with a puzzled expression.
Kato Megumi shook her head. "It's nothing, it's probably just my imagination."
She said that, but her heart was far from calm.
She saw a shoe peeking out from the corner of the wall, which meant she wasn't mistaken; someone was following her and Dansheng Valley!
Thinking of the recent news reports on TV about the serial killer targeting women who was still at large, Kato Megumi reached for her phone and sent a message to Lin Mu.
"Mu Jun, can you come over to Dansheng Valley and me? I feel like someone is following us."
Lin Mu replied instantly: "I'll be there soon. Be careful. By the way, is Dansheng Valley wearing a necklace?"
Kato Megumi: "She's wearing a necklace, is there something wrong?"
Lin Mu: "It's nothing, just wear it. Just pretend you didn't notice and keep walking. Try to go where there are more people. I'll be there soon!"
Although Kato Megumi was puzzled as to why he asked about the necklace after receiving a reply, she was relieved.
Pretending not to have noticed, Kato Megumi pulled Nibutani Morika along and slowly walked out of the alley and headed towards the market.
"Dansheng Valley, I'm a little hungry. How about we go get something to eat together? It's on me."
"Hey, now that you mention it, I do feel a bit hungry. Let's go!"
As they passed another alleyway, just as the two girls were about to leave for a more conspicuous place, the man behind them, wearing a hoodie and a mask, couldn't sit still any longer.
He hadn't encountered a suitable target for many days, and now that the opportunity was rare, he didn't want to miss these two fair-skinned and beautiful women.
So he grabbed a brick and threw it at the one who was the most conspicuous in stature.
"Women, stop right there!"
The brick whistled past, about to land on the back of Dansheng Valley Senxia's head, when the necklace around her neck suddenly lit up.
The brick seemed to hit some kind of barrier and fell to the ground with a thud.
Sensing something amiss, Nibutani Morika and Kato Megumi instinctively turned around and saw a man with a fierce look in his eyes, wearing a hooded jacket and a mask, holding a dagger and rushing towards them.
"Ah! It's a criminal!"
In the dimly lit alley, what else could a man dressed like that and wielding a sharp weapon be but a criminal?
When Nissougu Senxia thought of the recent news, her legs suddenly trembled.
"Kato, let's run!"
"Stop! Don't run!" Matsuda roared angrily from behind the two.
Nibutani Morika grabbed Kato Megumi and ran, shouting, "Only a fool wouldn't run!"
She didn't think a man dressed so fiercely would be friendly to her. Although she was scared, that was precisely why she had to run even harder.
Kato Megumi had already turned on her phone's location services and was now running towards the market with Nibutani Morika.
Suddenly, a stone flew past their ears.
The criminal, in a fit of rage, picked up a stone and threw it at me. The force of the blow was so great that anyone who was hit by it would surely fall to the ground and never get up again.
It's said that the more flustered a person is, the more likely they are to make mistakes.
This is not.
Startled by the stone flying past her ear, Nibutani Morika slipped and fell to the ground along with Kato Megumi.
The man, smugly holding a stone and a dagger, stood blocking the alley entrance.
"Hehehe, run, keep running!"
Nibutani Morika glanced at Kato Megumi with teary eyes, her face full of apology.
She tripped and fell by accident, and now this vicious person has caught up with her.
Kato Megumi gripped her phone tightly, gave her a reassuring look, her body trembling slightly, but she calmly looked at the fierce man.
"Uncle, if you want money, we'll give it to you, please don't hurt us!"
"Uncle?" Kato Megumi's words only fueled the man's anger.
"You all look down on me just because I'm an old man, right? And that woman, she looks down on me for not making enough money... Damn it, she deserves to die, they all deserve to die! You all deserve to die too!"
Matsushita, his eyes red, roared furiously, startling Nibutani Morika and Kato Megumi.
The two girls couldn't help but hold hands, hug each other, and huddle together in the corner, trembling.
"What do you want? We'll give you money, okay?" Dansheng Gu Senxia said through gritted teeth, her delicate body trembling uncontrollably.
She is afraid too.
"Money? Heh, what's the use of money? You two are high school students, right? Tsk... You have really pretty faces, and your skin... is so smooth."
The man pulled down his mask, revealing a stubble-covered face. He licked his lips and slowly approached.
"Don't come any closer! We've called the police!" Nissouya Morika stood in front of Kato Megumi, glaring at the pervert.
"Heh, call the police? You dare to call the police? What a waste of such a pretty face." Matsushita sneered, then suddenly swung his dagger at Nibutani Mori Natsu's cheek.
"what!"
Dansheng Valley Senxia instinctively closed her eyes to dodge, but the dagger did not land on her face.
Kato Megumi clearly saw that the necklace around Nibutani Mori's neck glowed, blocking the dagger.
Furthermore, the light gradually solidified, transforming into a purple protective shield that protected both girls.
Matsushita was thrown back by the protective shield and slammed hard against the wall, instinctively letting out a scream.
"Ah... what is this? Damn it... who's stopping me?"
Dansheng Valley Senxia opened her eyes in confusion and saw that her necklace was emitting light and had also formed a dreamlike protective shield.
This stunned her.
She thought of what Lin Mu had said when he kissed her and gave her the necklace, and her heart skipped a beat.
Was what he said actually true?
This necklace can actually transform into a protective barrier when I encounter danger?
Is this really necessary to be so surreal?
Isn't that just a statement from someone with chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)?
Am I dreaming?
While Nishiki Mori was in a daze, the fierce Matsushita got up again. He didn't care what strange thing was in front of him and frantically swung his dagger at the protective shield.
His life is ruined, so he wants to take everyone else to hell with him!
So what if it's a mysterious protective shield? It probably still consumes energy, right?
Once the energy is depleted, I can do whatever I want with these two women!
Nibutani Morika obviously realized this as well, so she suppressed her fear, pulled Kato Megumi to her feet, and turned to run away while holding up the protective shield.
"Kato, let's run!"
At this moment, it seemed that the necklace's protective shield had run out of energy.
The purple energy shield trembled twice and then dissipated.
Matsushita chuckled and blocked the alleyway entrance, shouting, "Run! Keep running... Ouch!"
As he let out an evil laugh, a brick slammed into the back of his head.
Matsushita's eyes rolled back and he collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.
Lin Mu, panting heavily, appeared in front of the two girls.
He was holding his phone, which showed his location.
Seeing that the two girls were alright, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Looks like I arrived just in time. It's good that you're both okay... Hmm!"
Dansheng Gusenxia could no longer control her fear. She threw herself into his arms, hugged his waist tightly, and burst into tears.
"Waaaaah... How scary! Mu Jun... that person... actually tried to hurt us... Waaaaah..."
960 No matter how strong Dansheng Valley Mori Natsumi is, she is still just a gentle and kind girl. When she encounters a serial killer like this, a villain who will slash a girl's face with a dagger without saying a word, she is naturally terrified.
Now that she has a powerful backer and has defeated that villain, she naturally can no longer control the grievances in her heart and just wants to confide in him.
Lin Mu gently stroked Dansheng Gu Senxia's hair to soothe her emotions.
When he saw Kato Megumi, he casually took a few steps with Mori Natsu and pulled her into his arms as well.
"It's okay, the bad guys won't hurt you anymore. I'm here."
As Kato Megumi watched his movements and smelled his aura, she couldn't help but feel her eyes well up with tears.
Like Dansheng Gu Senxia, she buried her face in his chest, her delicate body trembling slightly, and she began to sob softly.
To be honest, she was also frightened.
Lin Mu comforted the two girls, but felt a sense of relief.
Fortunately, he had the foresight to give Senxia a protective necklace; otherwise, he would have regretted it for the rest of his life if something had happened to her.
After the two girls calmed down, Lin Mu gave that wicked man's groin a final kick.
His tools of the crime were destroyed immediately.
Because Kato Megumi had already secretly called the police, he didn't set the fire to kill the guy outright, in order to maintain his image in front of the two girls.
However, he still left a trace of the magic of the Judgment Fire on this guy. When the police and judges finish judging his crimes, it will be the moment when he pays the price and dies completely.
A moment later, sirens blared.
The sight of the fierce-looking police officer at the head of the group made Lin Mu's expression turn strange.
The police officer's name is Daisuke Takasaka.
If he's not mistaken, he should be the father of Kirino Kousaka, the female protagonist of the anime "Oreimo".
He was still quite interested in the tsundere Kirino.
Perhaps, connecting with Daisuke Takasaka through this opportunity wouldn't be a bad thing.
Chapter 115: I was the first, so why did you give it to Mori Natsume first?
After carefully inquiring about the situation, Daisuke Takasaka ordered his subordinates to take away the prisoner who was lying on the ground unconscious and occasionally twitching in pain.
Looking at the handsome and upright Lin Mu, he couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder with admiration.
"Young man, you did a great job! You actually managed to take down this kind of criminal. Well done!"
Daisuke Takasaka doesn't really like going on police calls.
He'd love to have no cases at all.
When the police arrive, the crime scene is usually already completed.
The victim's horrific condition fueled Daisuke Takasaka's intense hatred for the perpetrator.
Therefore, he was deeply moved by Lin Mu's timely arrival and the fact that he had taken down the criminal.
"Um, officer, will Mu Jun be alright? After all... that guy's in pretty bad shape..."
