Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

"Alright."

After entering the study, Yukino Yukinoshita frowned slightly and said softly.

"Is the Teru Teru Bozu Killer really dead?"

Ye Xing smiled.

"How would I know? I wasn't at the scene. Anyway, that's what the Metropolitan Police Department's announcement said."

Yukino Yukinoshita stared at Ye Xing's face, as if trying to find a flaw on it.

But in the end, she only discovered one thing.

He…

…was indeed very handsome.

Besides that, there was nothing else.

Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't see through Ye Xing's thoughts before, and it's still the same now.

"Since the Teru Teru Bozu Killer is dead, then…"

Before Yukino Yukinoshita could finish speaking, Ye Xing nodded.

"Oh right, I forgot about that. You can move back home now."

"Eh?"

Yukino Yukinoshita was stunned for a moment, then pursed her lips and said.

"Right… right, after telling my mother, I… I can move back to my own house."

After saying that, Yukino Yukinoshita's expression became complicated.

"About what you said before, that after the investigation into the Teru Teru Bozu Killer incident is over, you would tell me the truth of the world…"

"It's not over yet."

Ye Xing shook his head, looked directly into Yukino's eyes, and said with a smile.

"Yukino-san, regarding the Metropolitan Police Department's announcement, there was no mention of 'Mask' and the others who appeared during the live broadcast. What do you think about this?"

"Is this also one of the trials?"

"Just treat it as one."

Yukino Yukinoshita was silent for a while, then slowly said.

"I think this represents the Metropolitan Police Department's attitude towards 'Mask' and the others."

Ye Xing asked noncommittally.

"What attitude is that?"

"That is, no attitude."

Yukino Yukinoshita said while thinking.

"As an official institution, once they mention 'Mask' and the other three mysterious people in the announcement, it is equivalent to acknowledging their existence."

"If they acknowledge their existence, then facing unidentified individuals who are walking on the edge of the law, even if the public supports them or opposes them, the Metropolitan Police Department, as an institution that maintains stability, can only take one measure, which is to issue an arrest warrant for 'Mask' and the others."

"Judging from the current popularity on the internet, due to yesterday's live broadcast and 'Mask's' remarks, the support rate of Kyoto citizens for 'Mask' has reached over 90%."

"Because of the Teru Teru Bozu Killer incident, the Metropolitan Police Department's credibility in the public's mind has already dropped sharply, and now they finally have a chance to regain the citizens' trust after killing the criminal."

"At this time, sticking to the old ways and showing a hostile attitude towards an unidentified individual who, although violating the law, has become a hero in the hearts of the people, will only arouse dissatisfaction in the public's mind."

"Therefore, the Metropolitan Police Department chose to ignore it."

"As long as they don't acknowledge the existence of 'Mask' in the official announcement, they can blur their attitude and avoid the situation of having to take a stand."

Speaking up to this point, Yukino Yukinoshita paused for a moment and made a final summary.

"But what I just said is only what's on the surface."

"As an official institution for maintaining stability, according to the Metropolitan Police Department's usual practices, it is impossible to take such unconventional measures unless someone overrides all objections."

"This is enough to prove…"

Yukino Yukinoshita looked directly into Ye Xing's eyes and slowly said.

"There is likely a high-ranking, influential 'Mask' supporter within the Metropolitan Police Department, or even…"

"An accomplice."

Chapter 171: Super-Quantity Society Doesn't Support Idlers, Everyone is My Wing

"Oh…"

Ye Xing just nodded noncommittally to Yukino Yukinoshita's analysis.

"I see, what you said makes quite a bit of sense."

Seeing his appearance, Yukino Yukinoshita frowned slightly, her mind racing.

Is Ye Xing's acting too good, or is he really not "Mask"?

Yukino Yukinoshita was also unwilling to believe that a high school student who was able to obtain first place in the Sakura Province Joint Entrance Examination and had a limitless future would gamble his future and destiny to become a vigilante walking on the edge of the law.

This completely does not conform to the logic of normal people.

The problem is…

Is Ye Xing a normal person?

Moreover, besides this, what other explanation is there?

Why was Ye Xing so confident that the Teru Teru Bozu Killer would definitely lose before the Metropolitan Police Department issued an announcement?

Going back to the beginning, how did he dare to use that interview report, using the Super-Quantity Society's members, especially himself, as bait to attract that serial killer?

Is it madness?

Or does he have some unknown reliance?

Yukino Yukinoshita first put aside the doubts in her heart, looked directly into Ye Xing's eyes, and slowly said.

"In that case, is the result of my trial a pass or a failure?"

"There is no such thing as failure."

Ye Xing shook his head, then suddenly changed the topic and smiled.

"However, Yukino-san, with your intelligence, you should have already collected enough clues at this stage to be able to deduce the truth of the whole matter."

"Whether you pass or not does not depend on whether you can deduce it, but on whether you can believe the conclusion you have reached after you have deduced it."

"Even if… it completely contradicts your understanding of the past ten years."

Amidst Yukino Yukinoshita's complicated expression, Ye Xing then smiled.

"What's more, each of our internal members possesses unique, irreplaceable qualifications. I haven't seen this point in you yet."

Hearing this, Yukino Yukinoshita's competitive spirit was aroused, and she said in a flat voice.

"Each member?"

"That's right, each member."

"What about Futaba-san's qualifications?"

"Logical thinking that allows her to make absolutely rational analyses from an outsider's perspective, even when she is in the midst of the situation."

"What about Yotsuya-san?"

"Extraordinary, a super-strong psychological quality that allows her to remain calm even when Mount Tai collapses in front of her."

"What about Mai-senpai?"

"Flawless acting skills, extremely high popularity. As long as someone knows her, even if it's the first time they meet, they won't suspect that she has any malicious intentions, and…"

Ye Xing specially emphasized with a serious look.

"Mai is very good at cooking, taking care of the meals for all the internal members. She is an important cook… Cooking Immortal of our Super-Quantity Society."

Yukino Yukinoshita really wanted to retort.

What you wanted to say just now was cook, right?

Even someone as gentle and graceful as Mai-senpai would be furious if she heard that kind of title, right?

"What about Amano… no, Touma-san?"

Yukino Yukinoshita asked halfway, but suddenly changed her words.

She vaguely guessed the answer.

However, Yukino Yukinoshita was afraid.

She couldn't believe that if she got Ye Xing's personal confirmation that Amano Hina was a supernatural who could change the weather…

…what kind of reaction should she make?

Yukino Yukinoshita usually seems to have a very straightforward personality, and can be said to be outspoken.

But when faced with questions that she can't find answers to, she will subconsciously choose to escape.

Just like an ostrich.

"Touma Kazusa? She plays the piano very well, and because of her family environment, she will say some sharp words that normal people wouldn't dare to say, even when facing me."

Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her lips, thinking to herself that what Ye Xing said was indeed very reasonable.

All the members who can participate in the internal meetings possess unique qualifications.

But…

Are these members amazing?

Compared to these members who each have their own strengths, gathering these weirdos with different personalities, who are considered difficult to get along with in the eyes of ordinary people, into a club and making them take action for the same goal.

Ye Xing, who can do all of this, is the most crucial core figure.

"Then…"

Yukino Yukinoshita hesitated for a moment, and finally asked the doubts in her heart.

"What about Yui?"

…

At the same time, outside Ye Xing's house.

"Ding-dong."

Hearing the sound of the doorbell ringing, Saki Kawasaki stood up and walked to the entrance, opening the door.

"Yaha…"

Yui Yuigahama, who was standing outside the door, hadn't even finished saying the third "ha" when she clearly saw that the person who opened the door was not the person she imagined, but Saki Kawasaki.

The smile on her face instantly froze, and even the hands holding the exquisite box began to tremble slightly.

"That…"

Yui Yuigahama forced a smile.

"I didn't know Kawasaki-san was here. This, that…"

Saki Kawasaki's pretty face also turned red, and she quickly waved her hand to explain.

"Eh… Didn't Ye Xing tell you… Well, that, it's not just me, there are other people here too."

"There are other people!?"

Yui Yuigahama was greatly shocked, her pupils trembling.

Why?

Why are there so many people, but I wasn't invited?

Why wasn't I invited to participate?

"You bastard…"
