"Did my little darling notice me?" James, hiding in the shadows, looked at Ryusei with a more fervent gaze.
"Uncle, are you a pervert?"
A slightly childish voice suddenly rang out. James's whole body tensed up, and he quickly turned around. It was actually a Little Loli, licking a lollipop and looking very innocent and cute.
James's suddenly tensed heart relaxed a little.
"Little girl, why are you here?" James put on a kind and amiable appearance. He didn't intend to attack this Little Loli but rather drive her away. If he were accidentally discovered and scared off his little darling, that would be bad.
"Uncle, you really are a pervert." January put down the lollipop in her mouth, looking at James as if she were looking at trash.
James immediately flared up. When had he ever been looked at like that, and by a child? In an instant, James changed his original intention and decided to leave this Little Loli here forever.
James directly reached out to grab January, but the January who was just there suddenly disappeared.
"How is this possible?" James's eyes widened. A living person had just disappeared right before his eyes.
"I'm behind you." January's voice came from behind, but before James could turn around, he felt something stick to his pants. Then he felt a burst of intense pain and lost consciousness.
"Boom!"
An explosion rang out. Ryusei, Qi Xiaosai, and the others nearby all looked toward the direction where the flames rose.
"Why was there a sudden explosion?!" Bun exclaimed. The sudden explosion gave him a fright.
"I don't know." Ryusei looked at the site of the explosion, feeling something was wrong. Why would there be a sudden explosion for no reason?
Ryusei, who was beside him, didn't notice, but Qi Xiaosai's expression changed, becoming very solemn. Had that group actually come here? Shouldn't their target be September Days? Could it be that their target was actually Ryusei? That shouldn't be right. Although Ryusei had activated his Sixth Sense, there was nothing special about him. What did that group want with Ryusei?
There were a lot of questions in his mind, but no one gave Qi Xiaosai an answer.
"Is it you?"
Ryusei and the others instinctively looked toward the direction the voice came from. A person was actually standing on a streetlight, his short silver hair seemingly glowing under the sunlight.
'Another showy person,' Ryusei couldn't help but say in his heart.
"It's you, then." October, on the streetlight, looked at Ryusei, holding the photo Asagami Fujino had given him. After comparing, he confirmed that the person in front of him was the target he was looking for. He truly was a pervert, actually liking to cross-dress. Although it looked quite good—even October couldn't help but take an extra look at Ryusei, as he was even prettier than in the photo—it was a pity he was a cross-dressing pervert. However, what surprised October was that this pervert had actually unlocked his Sixth Sense. This was interesting.
"Who are you?" Ryusei asked October on the streetlight, feeling that this person seemed to be looking for him.
"Who I am isn't important, but you being my target is correct." October casually threw away the photo. Now that he had found the target, it was no longer needed. Besides, carrying that photo gave October a very strange feeling, wanting to take it out and look at it from time to time. Such an eerie situation made October feel a bit of a chill, so it was safer to discard the weird photo.
"Target? You're looking for me?" Ryusei frowned, trying to figure out if he knew the person in front of him.
"Don't bother thinking. I'm here to give you a beating on behalf of someone." October rubbed his fists and then leaped down, his fist striking toward Ryusei. He didn't use his Seventh Sense, after all, it was just a pervert who had unlocked his Sixth Sense.
In the distance, in a very hidden place, Asagami Fujino and September were both watching October and Ryusei's group. As for Alice, Sakuya, and April, they did not come along; the three of them were enjoying afternoon tea in a cafe.
"Is it really okay to do this to Ryusei?" With Asagami Fujino's help, September could see the distant scene very clearly. Seeing October attack Ryusei, September could already imagine Ryusei's subsequent situation and couldn't help but feel pity for him. Although she usually liked to bully Ryusei, she wasn't as ruthless as Asagami Fujino, who actually sent October to give Ryusei a beating.
"I'm doing this for Ryusei's own good," Asagami Fujino said earnestly. Hearing this, September couldn't help but roll her eyes. 'Are you sure this is for Ryusei's own good? I only see Ryusei suffering.'
"You really don't know," Asagami Fujino explained to September. "You don't understand this. Only by being beaten can one become stronger. Ryusei has great potential, but it must be thoroughly stimulated through being beaten. September, you have to believe me; I would never lie to you."
"Really?" September looked at Ryusei suspiciously. She didn't think Ryusei's potential was that good; at most, he was a bit thick-skinned and had the virtue of being shameless.
"Fake."
"I knew it." September looked at Asagami Fujino speechlessly. This person had truly had enough.
"Alright, don't worry. I really am helping Ryusei. You'll understand in the future. Besides, Ryusei is no longer ordinary."
Asagami Fujino said with a smile, her gaze once again turning toward Ryusei and the others.
