Chapter 100: Mikami Ai's Friends Are All Terrifying

Mikami Ai looked at Qingshan Li first.

This is a mall, crowded and chaotic, not a good place to fight.

Qingshan Li stood still.

When things exceed a certain degree, he decides to handle it privately with the System instead of acting himself in front of everyone.

"I moved recently, thought security improved, and slacked off on improving my martial power," he reflected.

Otherwise, he could walk over now, slightly show his martial power—like twisting a steel pipe as if it were a charging cable—and they wouldn't dare cause trouble anymore.

The System is still too cumbersome.

Teasing Him as a belt, it really is like a transformation device, unable to be shown in front of people.

"These people are too hateful!" Ono Mizuki said softly.

After Red Hair and the others stopped the Earring Man, they left the courtyard laughing and joking.

"I'll have someone check the surveillance, and deal with them after they leave the mall," Mikami Ai said, taking out her mobile phone and sending messages with a cold expression.

Qingshan Li, who had been staring at that group of thugs, was originally about to follow them, but upon hearing her words, stopped his steps.

"Can you send them to prison?" he asked.

"Rough words and behavior in public places, disrupting order, or obstructing others' normal activities are punishable by detention, up to 29 days; or a fine under 10,000 yen," Mikami Ai said.

"That's too cheap for them," Qingshan Li said.

"Hmph!" Ono Mizuki said angrily too.

"I'm going to the toilet," Qingshan Li said, hands in his pockets, walking out.

"Come back!" Mikami Ai scolded.

She added: "If the crime of obstructing business can be confirmed, the sentence is up to three years in prison or a fine under 500,000 yen."

"Can it be confirmed?" Qingshan Li asked.

"My family has the most professional lawyers, and strong connections with the Shinjuku District Police—dealing with them is a small matter; what's most important now is Senior Mika and the others."

Qingshan Li looked toward the stage.

Agatsuma Haruka, Bass Sakurako, and the others surrounded Ono Mika, comforting her, but even they were at a loss.

They must be encouraged.

Qingshan Li took his hands out of his pockets, raised them high above his head, and clapped hard.

Everyone in the courtyard looked at him, his gaze fixed on the stage.

"Go for it!!" Mikami Ai cupped her hands around her mouth and shouted toward the stage.

"Go for it!!" Ono Mizuki shouted too.

Some people around were puzzled, some frowned thinking it noisy, some thought it was making a fuss over nothing, and some smiled knowingly.

"Very good!" a man shouted loudly.

"So cute!" a girl shouted from another place.

Cheers were few, but the Sunny Band Club still relied on this bit of warmth, gathered courage, and returned to their respective positions.

Ono Mika bowed to the crowd below the stage, then stood quietly under the spotlight.

Drummer Gu Meng Shi struck the drumsticks, playing the music.

【When practicing guitar today, my fingers bled again】

【Looking at the blood on my fingertips, I remembered myself ten years ago】

This time, everyone's gaze in the courtyard was on them.

They felt as if a bit of courage had risen in their hearts; if those people dared come again, they would surely speak out to scold them.

Ono Mizuki hummed along with the rhythm.

Qingshan Li looked at the second floor of the courtyard; that group of thugs leaned on the fence, talking and pointing at the first floor.

"I'm going to the toilet."

Mikami Ai wasn't paying attention and let him go.

She sighed with a headache and said to the unaware Ono Mizuki: "Miyuki, I'm going to the restroom too."

"Oh, okay."

Mikami Ai quickly caught up with Qingshan Li.

"What are you doing here?" Qingshan Li asked.

"I'm going to the toilet too," Mikami Ai answered without changing her expression.

Qingshan Li went up to the second floor, separated from Mikami Ai in front of the restroom, and turned into the men's restroom.

After washing his hands, he turned around and came out; just as he passed the corner, he heard a sound.

"Where are you going?" Mikami Ai stood with her arms crossed at the corner.

"You went to the toilet and didn't even wash your hands?" Qingshan Li said in disbelief.

"I didn't go in."

"."

"Those people are happy like pigs rolling in mud; I stopped you only because I don't want you to fall into the mud pit too," Mikami Ai paused slightly, "there will be professionals to deal with them."

"I really came to the toilet," Qingshan Li said.

"Finished?"

"Finished."

"Can we go back now?"

". How did they come? By car? If by car, where is the car parked?" Qingshan Li asked.

"If you don't interfere in this matter, they will go to prison; if you beat them, they might only be detained—think it through," Mikami Ai left the choice to him himself.

"First one."

Qingshan Li guaranteed they'd be beaten so hard they'd feel like they were in prison for the rest of their lives.

Too ruthless?

Scaring Ono Mika, affecting her first-ever stage performance, and still talking about ruthlessness with him?

"However, I'll trouble you to have your classmate clean up the aftermath," Qingshan Li said with a smile.

"I don't like owing favors," Mikami Ai said with a smile, "but I happen to have something on her."

"Well done! I'll let you publish all my future books, guaranteed to make you the greatest publisher of the twenty-first century!"

Qingshan Li decided to write one book a year; how much would Mikami Ai earn in her lifetime?

He should be able to repay her kindness.

"Now I have something on you too," Mikami Ai continued.

"." That's no fun.

"Go on, I'll have a bodyguard lead the way."

"Keep them far away; once I start fighting," Qingshan Li pointed to his own eyes, "I kill without blinking."

"My friend's home, also counts as her home, there's a company that specializes in handling wasteland, responsible for filling Tokyo Bay, they can handle killing too, but it's best not to."

"You and your friend are too terrifying."

"You're also my friend," Mikami Ai said, "take care on the way."

Qingshan Li didn't like grading people, but he had to grade Mikami Ai, and he'd give her a B.

After all, going from 'B to A' required completing a special mission.

Hope she keeps up the good work.

Qingshan Li hadn't walked far when a man carrying a briefcase approached him without a trace.

"Please come with me," he said in a low voice.

Qingshan Li followed him, and the two left the mall and came to the garage.

Those three's car was a kei car; judging by its appearance, it was so dilapidated that even slightly expensive parking fees made them too lazy to own a car.

Not long after waiting, the three arrived.

After all, they came to cause trouble, might come many times, but couldn't stay long once.

The three, with no one else around, joked and chatted about what happened in the courtyard just now.

"That woman's breasts are really big!"

"But the one singing is still prettier."

"They all look young; maybe one or two are still virgins."

"Feel like they'll become popular; how about sleeping with them once before they become popular?" the red-haired man proposed.

"Hey hey hey, you're more outrageous than me!" the earring man who had pretended to go on stage laughed and scolded.

"Apologize later," the red-haired man said, "after going back, find another group to help, harass them while they're street performing, we pretend to protect them; after a few times, we can take them to a love hotel."

The flower-shirt man said with a smile, "Good idea."

"Must take photos, right? After they become popular, we can ask for money, or shoot a few more rounds!" the earring man got excited.

Chose the right ones.

Qingshan Li walked out from the darkness.

The flower-shirt man sized him up for a while and asked, "Who are you?"

"If the stupidity of 'Winter Invades Russia' is B, then your words and actions just now are A," Qingshan Li said.

"Mall people?!" the flower-shirt man became alert.

The red-haired man drew a dagger from behind.

——System

【Begin 'Free Fighting' Guidance】

System·Ryosuke stepped forward.

【Stamina exhausted, guidance ended】

Qingshan Li was weak all over, gritting his teeth with one breath, intending to give the earring man on the ground a final punch, but failed to complete it.

He had no choice but to sit on the other person.

"Haha." He panted.

His vision went a bit dark; was it from lack of stamina, or had it gotten dark outside, the parking lot dim?

When he had the energy to move his gaze, he surveyed the results.

The flower-shirt man and the earring man had swollen faces and bruises, dislocated joints, while the red-shirt man who drew the dagger was bleeding.

Looking at the chest, they were still rising and falling; seriously injured but not dead.

Qingshan Li took out his mobile phone.

【Qingshan Li: Alright, let your people come over.】

【Mikami Ai: You leave first; they won't dare come over while you're there】

【Mikami Ai: 【Video】】

In the video, Qingshan Li easily and neatly knocked down the three, then it was free beating, no, free fighting.

Even at the scene, as long as one had no hostility, they wouldn't be selected by the system? That was good news.

It was just too brutal; no wonder professional bodyguards were scared to approach.

【Ono Mizuki: Are you constipated?】

Qingshan Li, who had originally planned to rest for a while, struggled to get up.

For a moment he couldn't stand steady, his body swayed.

It's over, what a shame.

But in the eyes of the Bodyguard in the dark, his posture was indescribably relaxed and at ease, exuding a Confidence of absolute control over the situation.
