Chapter 47
The car came to a stop.
“This is Satomi Rentaro, a friend I've known since childhood.”
Tendo Miku introduced her friend to Bai Ye.
“Rentaro, this is Mr. Bai Ye.”
“Hello.”
The boy named Satomi Rentaro slightly bowed to Bai Ye.
However, his expression was filled with confusion.
What was going on?
Why was Miku sitting in the same car with a man he had never seen before?
And it seemed like they were quite familiar with each other?
What on earth was happening?
Shiba Weizhi stood quietly beside Bai Ye.
She wasn't very familiar with Satomi Rentaro yet, having only seen him a few times.
It was said that he was a civilian police officer.
Similar to a civilian mercenary.
He usually teamed up with those known as Initiators, capable individuals who were cursed, to carry out missions to eliminate primordial creatures.
Beside the boy named Satomi Rentaro stood a young girl with crimson eyes and hair.
If nothing unexpected happened,
she should be a cursed child brought from the International Initiator Supervision Agency.
Thinking of this,
Shiba Weizhi suddenly recalled that the otherworldly deity invited by Tendo Miku seemed to be here to save this world.
She had even specifically inquired about the status of the cursed children earlier.
Next, there might be a good show to watch.
“Miss Miku, what are you planning to do?”
Sitting in the limousine, it didn't look like they were going on an outing.
As for the woman in the kimono, that was beside the point.
The young man in front of him, who was much taller, made him feel a sense of crisis.
Because he had special feelings for Tendo Miku.
It was precisely because of this that he became a civilian police officer and joined the civilian security company that Tendo Miku was preparing to establish.
“Oh, it was sudden, and since you went to the International Initiator Supervision Agency for an assessment, I didn't have the chance to tell you about this.”
Tendo Miku regarded Satomi Rentaro as a friend.
Of course, it wasn't the same as having romantic feelings for him.
So, what she said next was similar to what she had told Shiba Weizhi over the phone earlier.
“Rentaro, Mr. Bai Ye will take me to seek revenge next. The murderers who killed my parents won't escape today.”
Tendo Miku's face revealed an expectant smile.
“Rentaro, you should come along too, and watch the changes in this world with us.”
However,
upon hearing these words, Satomi Rentaro stood frozen in place.
When he finally reacted, a numb and tense expression appeared on his face.
Then he lowered his voice and said, “Miku, I thought... you had forgotten about the past.”
Upon hearing this, Tendo Miku showed a strange expression.
“What are you talking about? Rentaro, how could you forget the enemies who killed your parents?”
“Not to mention, my enemies have become high-ranking officials in this country, appearing on television every day. How could I possibly forget them?”
“I... I know, but what do you mean by revenge? Without evidence, we can't bring them to justice.”
Satomi Rentaro said nervously.
“Moreover, so many years have passed; even if there was evidence, it would have disappeared by now.”
“What does it matter if there's no evidence? As long as I know the Tendo family is the one who killed my parents, that's enough.”
Tendo Miku laughed.
She certainly knew that there would be no witnesses left.
But even if she had evidence, it would be impossible to bring down the powerful Tendo family.
After all, the entire country, except for the Holy Son, was fundamentally rotten from top to bottom.
“I personally don't have the ability to take revenge, but Mr. Bai Ye is willing to help me, so Rentaro, will you join us?”
Tendo Miku invited again.
“No, Miss Miku, this isn't right! You're not thinking clearly! You're completely mistaken! Didn't you always tell me to 'execute justice'? How is wanting to kill anyone justifiable?”
Rentaro said forcefully.
Then he looked at Bai Ye.
“I don't know what methods you've used to deceive Miss Miku, but I won't let you succeed!”
After saying that,
he stood firmly in front of Bai Ye with righteous indignation.
What savior, what saving the world!
It's all nonsense!
This guy was just a fraud under the guise of a savior!
Seeing this, Shiba Weizhi felt as if she saw her own shadow in him.
Her expression involuntarily became a bit awkward.
Just when she thought Bai Ye would treat this boy the same way as before,
an unexpected scene unfolded.
“Miku, what is your relationship with this person?”
Bai Ye asked with a smile.
“A friend I've known since childhood.”
Tendo Miku instinctively replied.
“Just a friend?”
Bai Ye seemed to ponder, then a pleasant smile appeared on his face.
Before Tendo Miku could react, he reached out and pulled the girl into his embrace.
“Huh?”
“Hmm?”
“!?”
The three of them displayed different expressions.
Satomi Rentaro looked at the girl being embraced by someone else, his face showing disbelief.
He had always thought about the day he could hold her in his arms, but unexpectedly, someone else had beaten him to it.
“Mr. Bai Ye, what are you doing?”
Feeling suddenly restrained, Tendo Miku froze in place.
Of course,
as the heir of the Tendo style, if it were any other man daring to do this, she would have retaliated immediately.
But because it was Bai Ye, Tendo Miku's mind was a jumbled mess.
What did the big shot want to do?
Could it be that he really had feelings for her?
Indeed.
Bai Ye had laid his cards on the table.
Although Tendo Miku seemed to regard him as a member and a big shot, Bai Ye genuinely wanted to be with her.
Her long, lustrous black hair shone in the sunlight, contrasting beautifully with her porcelain-like skin.
Moreover, her appearance, dressed in thigh-high socks and a black sailor uniform, added an extra layer of charm.
With her long black hair and JK attributes,
it was no wonder Bai Ye thought, “So cute, I want to be with her.”
Of course,
the main reason he was doing this now was still because of Satomi Rentaro.
