Chapter 273, A scene on the road
One floor, two floors, three floors... six floors high, the balcony had a peony-shaped quilt hanging on the fence, with a thin rope pulled in the middle, and many underwear and socks fixed to the rope with clips.
The deep black color was faintly visible in the gap between the two quilts.
When the wind blew, a person appeared.
"The crosswind is very strong, the crosshair should be corrected three spaces to the left..."
The knob on top of the dark tubular weapon turned automatically without anyone noticing.
L39 is a large-caliber anti-tank weapon developed by Finland during World War II. It is very powerful and can penetrate most of today's light armored vehicles.
"... Building wind... Whirlwind coming from three directions... Adjust the crosshair one square to the right... Sniper target "Utsunomiya Shuo"..."
Dong dong dong dong dong dong——
It was like the continuous firing of a semi-automatic heavy machine gun, with deep blue flames spewing out continuously without any pause.
As a result, the next second, the L39 exploded on the spot, its explosion flames poured backwards, the shock wave penetrated the glass door, and the 20×138mm standard ammunition was embedded in the wall.
Fortunately, no one was injured.
The small cube flashing infrared light fell to the ground, making a crackling noise.
"...The momentum impact experiment failed. We are unable to detect the upper limit of Utsunomiya Shuo's reflected momentum. Execute... sizzle sizzle..."
……
The leaves fell lightly from the gaps between the branches. Riding on the Hysteria, the princess was carrying her laboriously towards the central high school.
"Ms. Utsunomiya, the word 'sufficient' is a bit rude." The princess said expressionlessly.
She was sitting obediently in the back seat, holding the hem of her blue skirt to her knees with her hands to prevent it from being blown up by the wind.
Her Royal Highness was wearing her school uniform today, with her tie neatly tied. The white shirt fitted her well, and the knee-length grey skirt gave her a touch of literary and artistic flair. Her slender white ankles were just slender enough to be held in one hand, and the small square-buckle leather shoes on her feet reflected the light and were polished very clean.
Very well behaved and quiet.
Utsunomiya Shuo was grunting in the front.
"Really?" Zhuo was wondering if it would be embarrassing if he stood up and pedaled. It was rush hour and there were many pedestrians on the road.
"I took you for a whole afternoon of riding before, and I never told you that you were heavy." Ling paused and continued, "Why are you talking about me now?"
"It's really heavy." Zhuo replied.
"What should we do then?" Zero asked.
"How about we walk there and you carry the bike on your back?" suggested Utsunomiya Shuo.
"That's a very good idea," Zero said in a flat voice, "but there are a lot of people here, and you might be photographed and arrested by the Metropolitan Police Department."
Is it a child abuse crime?
Zhuo didn't say this.
He looked around and saw an old lady passing by looking at them kindly, her eyes seemed to be saying something like "This brother and sister have such a sweet relationship, but the brother might have a fever, his face is so red, he should make sure to rest."
"Why are they brother and sister?"
"It's normal because you are so young. Twenty years later, people will think we are father and daughter."
"... Obscene." Zero commented calmly.
"..."
Zhuo was speechless and could only say that the mixed-blood's brain worked too quickly. Before he could react, the wheel of the car had already run over his face.
Dong-dong-dong-dong-dong——(A series of sounds similar to firecrackers.)
Utsunomiya Shuo, like other passers-by on the roadside, looked in the direction of the sound, curious about who was getting married today and setting off firecrackers in broad daylight.
Only Her Royal Highness the Princess raised her little face at this time, and took the opportunity to stare at Utsunomiya Shuo's chin in a trance... and then retracted her gaze before he noticed.
"Is this your ability?" Ling asked, staring at the surface of his shoes. "Yeah, it controls the direction of all vectors of contact." Zhuo looked away.
"...very impressive." Zero commented, and then stopped paying attention to this point, "Is it still the Eight Snake Clan?"
"Who knows."
Zhuo shrugged and said indifferently.
The wheels turn, the street scene recedes, and everything becomes farther and farther away.
Ling waved to the old lady in the distance as a goodbye.
Then, the Hysteria suddenly turned from its originally straight path and headed into a small alley beside the road.
Ling nimbly grabbed the handlebars on the back seat and did not get thrown out due to inertia. After the bicycle came to a steady stop, he said calmly, "Zhuo, manslaughter also carries a sentence of imprisonment."
"Well, it's not that easy to die." Utsunomiya Zhuo was speechless.
It's not that he didn't consider Zero, but in his mind, there has never been a possibility that Zero would be thrown out because the bicycle turned too quickly... So it's more like belief than negligence.
"The hearts of mixed-bloods are very fragile. They will be hurt by words and broken into pieces."
It seems that the mixed-blood princess is indeed much smarter than him.
Utsunomiya Zhuo paused: "...I know I was wrong."
Zhuo began to adjust the direction of the bicycle and turned around on the spot - Ling was still sitting on the back seat and did not get off.
"If you really find it troublesome, that's fine. There are only two steps left. You can go first."
"I already know my mistake, Your Majesty, please forgive me."
"it is good."
Utsunomiya Shuo got on his bike again and drove back to the main road - originally he wanted the two of them to enter the school separately. After all, it was too arrogant to drive Zero into the school gate, and it would cause jealousy.
Very troublesome.
Fortunately, Ling saw through his thoughts in advance and told him what he had just said, which allowed Zhuo to turn back to the right path in time.
Utsunomiya Shuo suddenly increased the speed of his bicycle. The bleak autumn wind blew up, bringing with it the fresh scent of earth. The orange-red maple leaves fluttered and swayed in the wind.
On the street, two high school girls in uniform in front of me were playing with their mobile phones with their heads down. When they heard the sound of wheels behind them, they glanced back slightly, and then quickly made way. The bicycle rang its bell to express its gratitude when passing by her.
A flash of light golden hair flashed past in the corner of their eyes, causing the two of them to stop and look back and forth several times before they realized that it was the person on the bicycle who just passed by.
Looking up, they saw a cute, doll-like girl nodding at them.
The female high school students were stunned for a moment and nodded stupidly.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen such a cute girl, with foreign hair color... Is she Romanov-senpai from Class 2-B?
And nodded at her.
The girl's nod brightened my mood for the whole day! The depression I had felt at school disappeared in an instant.
"That classmate has such a great temperament!" commented the girl next to her.
"That's Mr. Romanov. He comes from a good family but he's not arrogant and very approachable." The girl who was nodded at excitedly explained to her companions.
"Oh, I see. No wonder. Her mother must have been very strict with her parents. Her daily life is no different from that of an ordinary high school student. I remember that many students in an international school were picked up by special buses, but she actually rides a bicycle to school."
"Oh, you mean BST, the British School of Tokyo. Many celebrities' children study there."
"Yeah, I think a child from her family should be in school... Um... sitting on the back of a bicycle is against traffic rules."
"Ha, haha, the truth is in the ordinary. Maybe they are just experiencing it once."
"...they?" Her companion looked at her. "Reiko, calm down. I heard that Romanov is a nice guy, but he doesn't like humans. You can't do that."
"Woo——"
