My deskmate is Nakano Satsuki.

“Tsk…”

Jing Ke'ai pouted and said, "However, in reality, there are still so many people who smoke."

Ye Feng squinted and said, "Why are you comparing yourself to those people? According to surveys, the total number of smokers worldwide is only a small fraction, and it's declining with the times..."

Jing Ke covered her forehead: "I don't want to discuss this with you."

Ye Feng nodded: "Understood."

"Phew..."

Jing Ke let out a breath, put the cigarette back, and said, "Don't worry, I'm just smelling it, I won't smoke it... Please sit down first."

After Ye Feng sat down, Jing Ke'ai said, "I saw the news."

"Ah."

If you see it, you see it; some things simply can't be hidden.

He had absolutely no intention of hiding anything.

This matter was bound to be exposed sooner or later. It's actually good that someone has noticed it now, so that when things come to a head, we won't be completely unprepared and cause an instant collapse.

As for erasing everyone's memories?

forget it!

That would be a thankless and exhausting task.

Seeing that he responded so calmly, Jing Ke'ai couldn't help but ask, "Don't you have anything else to say?"

"say what?"

"Hmm... For example, this world is facing invasion from another world, or aliens have already set their sights on Earth, lurking in the human world, secretly planning to conquer and rule the Earth..."

Why do you look so expectant? Just say it.

You're just being a hypocrite!

If that kind of thing really happened, you wouldn't be curious and expectant anymore, but rather fearful and terrified!

However, this quiet and adorable thought actually represents the thoughts of a large portion of humanity.

Extraordinary power...

It represents power, money, and status.

And isn't this what countless people strive for their entire lives?

With extraordinary power, all of this will be easily obtained, and others will even offer everything to you willingly!

Also.

Modern society is undoubtedly very prosperous, but behind this prosperity lie countless people living mediocre lives, where their futures are predictable...

Dry and numb.

Depression, pain.

In this situation, many people will naturally have thoughts like, "If I had superpowers, I could do this and that..."

However, most people learn to face reality in real life, which means accepting their fate.

If you can't resist life, you can only adapt to it, right?

Of course, some people seek thrills and excitement to escape a dull and boring life, which leads to extreme sports and challenges to the limits of life and death.

This quiet and adorable girl comes from a wealthy family, so she never has to worry about making a living and drives an expensive sports car.

The apartment they live in is a high-end apartment that most office workers can only dream of.

Therefore, they naturally won't have their edges smoothed out like ordinary office workers.

After all, it's quite normal for an older single woman who reads comics and doujinshi to still have certain fantasies.

A dull and monotonous life needs novelty and excitement.

Supernatural powers, or alien invasions... could obviously fulfill this requirement.

Unfortunately, even if such a thing were to actually happen, most people would only feel fear and dread, rather than find it novel and exciting!

Even if you're not afraid, what can you do with the power?

Among those who gain power, perhaps most will be unable to control their desires, thus bringing disaster to the world?

Therefore, Ye Feng has always been an extremely upright and kind person...

right?

Because he clearly had countless opportunities to obtain everything, even to directly ascend the throne and rule this world, then set off towards the stars and the sea, or even other dimensional universes, embarking on a path of conquest...

I will trample countless worlds under my feet and ascend the lone throne!

Jing Ke clenched her fist: "Hey, what's with that expression?!"

Ye Feng said disdainfully, "Guess!"

This cricket is a single woman in her late twenties, and instead of thinking about getting married quickly, she's here fantasizing about unrealistic things...

Ok!

In his view, this is not unrealistic, because there is indeed a critical point invading reality.

But very few people know about this.

So, saying that there's an invasion from another world or the arrival of aliens is just an unrealistic fantasy, and there's nothing wrong with that, right?

Jing's forehead veins were throbbing in a cross shape. I guess... ...I guess what the hell!

That was clearly a look of disdain and contempt!

hateful!

If I weren't outmatched, I would have made sure you couldn't get out of bed for three days straight!

"Phew..."

Jing Ke'ai interlaced her fingers and looked at him sharply: "Ye Fengjun, you've been in deep trouble."

"Ok?"

Ye Feng had a few question marks on his head. He thought about it carefully and realized that he hadn't disciplined any bad girls recently, had he? He hadn't suddenly stopped any girl to charge her, and he hadn't forced anyone to go to a love hotel, had he?

"you... ..."

Jing Ke'ai paused, remained silent for a moment, then waved her hand and said, "Never mind, you can go first!"

She and Kirisu Mafuyu are very good friends.

Although we've only known each other for less than a year, we have a very good relationship. We often go to izakayas for drinks or go shopping together...

During this period, Kirisu Mafuyu was often spacing out and daydreaming, and Shizuka Kei keenly noticed the problem.

Then they found some things for Ye Feng to do.

Simply put, some people always feel troubled every day, like not having enough to pay off their Alipay bills, wondering why life is so terrible, or why their phone battery is always running out of power...

Ultimately, it boils down to overthinking without taking any action to make any changes.

Can't afford to pay back my Alipay bill?

Why don't you buy less stuff, or go find a part-time job?

If life is bad, take action to change it!

Don't you know why your phone battery is running out of power?

In short, they're too idle.

If you give him something to do, do you think he'll still have time to overthink things?

The same goes for Ye Feng.

He didn't join any clubs. Every afternoon, he would occasionally go to the library to sit for a while, and then go home.

Kirisu Mafuyu is similar; she has very little contact with other people.

And these two people, both from Ichinose, have now become neighbors...

Social death is terrifying.

Neither her best friend Kirisu Mafuyu nor Yoruichi wanted to see them make mistakes, experience social death, and then be forced to leave for distant lands...

So even if she's disliked, she'll still do something.

However, after today's news broke, Shizuka noticed that Kirisu Mafuyu's expression had turned very unpleasant...

She even secretly called Ye Feng on her own.

Then he let out a sigh of relief.

Why do we know that Jing Ke'ai was calling Ye Feng?

Because Kirisu Mafuyu isn't good at lying, it was easy for her to figure it out!

In short, Jing Ke'ai suddenly realized it.

Perhaps the relationship between Kirisu Mafuyu and Yoru is much more complicated than she thought.

Leaving that aside for now, Jing Ke'ai is more concerned about something else.

That is--

Mysterious incident!

Chapter 71 May, another buff?

May is the month of... ...

The "space loss" incident involving Ichinose, and the current "demon summoning" incident, are both considered mysterious incidents because they remain unsolved!

"I can't mention Ichinose in front of Mafuyu. I was thinking of asking him about it..."

"But it's not right to just ask like that, is it?"

“In the past, Mafuyu had a few drinks and secretly cried. Then, she would always call Yefeng, as if the world would collapse if she couldn’t hear his voice… …Maybe it was because of Ichinose.”

“When past sorrows are suddenly brought up again, it’s like cutting a fresh, bloody wound into a scabbed one.”

"That kind of thing..."

"How stupid do you have to be to do that?!"

Indeed, Jing Ke Ke admits that she is very curious, well... super curious!

After all, it's an unsolved case, and it may involve some mysterious areas. I believe anyone would be curious about it, right?

For example, one day you discover that someone might actually be a cultivator, and this person is someone you're very close to. And if you just ask them, you might be able to embark on the path of cultivation and roam freely throughout the world...

So, what would you do?

In Jing's eyes, Ye Feng was not fragile at all; on the contrary, he was shameless, ruthless, and very popular.

But even if there was only the slightest possibility of harming him, Jing Ke'ai hesitated.

Jing Ke sighed inwardly and waved her hand, saying, "Alright, just be mindful of your behavior. I'll continue to keep an eye on you. This is none of your business. Go back now."

Jing Ke'ai continues to worry about troubled children.

You should really think about your own life!

Ye Feng replied, "I'm leaving."

He could naturally tell what Jing Ke wanted to ask, but since she didn't ask, he wouldn't say anything more and cause trouble for himself.

Given Jing's meddlesome nature, if she knew that superpowers, Onmyoji, monsters, ghosts, and the like really existed in the world, she might pester herself and go astray, becoming a generation of "True Love Iron Fist Jing!"

Back to the classroom.

It was during the break between classes.

Ye Feng sat in his seat, resting his chin on his hand and looking out the window.

It was raining outside the window, and to be honest, he didn't like rainy days like this.
