There is nothing wrong with the training method of the Justice Messenger

——"Will this become tomorrow's headline if I send it to the newspaper? I think it will be a big hit."

——"That scumbag is going to be socially dead."

Li Nian immediately pretended to take a close look at Dalian Temple. Suddenly, as if he had suddenly realized something, he put on a smile and took two steps forward.

"Oh, look carefully, isn't this Dalian Temple? Sorry, I didn't wake up very well. This girl has changed a lot since she grew up. I didn't recognize her even though I have poor eyesight."

With a smile on his face, he shook hands with Dalian Temple. When no one could see, the veins on Li Nian's forehead were throbbing, and he whispered.

"Dalian Temple, what are you playing at?"

"I need you to do me a favor and get rid of this tactless person, so that there won't be a continuous flow of them in the future."

"I'm about to be stabbed like a hedgehog, can you please not involve me?"

"I owe you a favor, and it seems you have no other choice at this point."

"...Okay, then you have to remember this favor... and stop any future trouble, right?"

The incident happened suddenly, but as the situation turned out, they could only reach a consensus in a hurry. Then, Li Nian glanced coldly behind Dalian Temple.

The boy was left behind by Dalian Temple after feeling shocked and confused. Then, when he saw that it was a sophomore who ruined his plans, he realized that he had been dumped without words, and in front of everyone, by being ignored and then thrown into the arms of someone else. He became furious from the bottom of his heart and stormed towards Li Nian.

"Hey, you kid—"

But before he could say anything, the boy was kicked more than a meter away, and he curled up on the ground, holding his stomach in pain.

Amid the uproar, Li Nian put down his kick.

At first glance, he was arrogant and domineering, just like the Yamamoto in the past. Li Nian had long seen through that he didn't take it seriously when he confessed to Dalian Temple, just for fun, and didn't realize how much trouble this action caused others, because he also got Li Nian involved. He had no good feelings towards him, only bad feelings. Now he dared to put on airs and cause trouble? I didn't want to listen to his nonsense, so I just kicked him.

Li Nian walked forward, squatted beside the curled up boy, patted his face, and warned him coldly.

"Be a better person next time. If you want to confess your love to [my friend's sister] sincerely, it's fine. It's no fun to just treat it as a game, understand?"

Li Nian quickly thought of an excuse and made up a rather distant relationship, completely unaware that after hearing the words "my friend's sister", Daliansi's body suddenly trembled.

The people around have accepted Li Nian's statement, which seemed to come naturally.

——"...I remember now. That person is the top student in the second grade, Li Nian from Group F!"

——"I heard that he developed a muscular body after going through a hellish training during the summer vacation, and his academic ability also improved at that time. Some people also saw him in a conflict with gangsters outside the school. It is said that the inexplicable transfer of Sakamoto and others is also related to him. It seems that he is a person who is not easy to mess with..."

——"My friend's...sister? Is she in this relationship with a child prodigy? Aren't they a couple... It feels so weird... But if it's this person, it doesn't seem so strange."

——"Does that mean I have to get past this person before I can confess? Wow, that feels so difficult, let's just forget it."

Seeing the fearful look in the senior's eyes, it seemed that he had learned a belated lesson from the pain, and knowing that he would not have to worry about being troubled later, Li Nian stood up and walked towards the direction of Dalian Temple.

"I've settled it for you as agreed."

Not wanting to have anything to do with her anymore, Li Nian walked past her and continued to go to the cafeteria to buy her own lunch, but she felt that Dalian Temple was following her and didn't seem to care about the poor boy, so she added impatiently: "Master [Prodigy], can you go play and stop following me?"

"What's the matter? I didn't have lunch either. Let's go together."

"You think you haven't made enough noise? Let me be clear, I don't want to become a rare animal like you, attracting countless attention wherever you go."

“Isn’t it gradually becoming like that now?”

"Yes, it's all thanks to you."

It is indeed conceivable that after what happened today, it will spread throughout the campus in a blink of an eye. After that, her name will be brought up for discussion along with the term "child prodigy". Even if she doesn't want to, Li Nian has already become a celebrity on campus.

Including now, it’s all because of this woman. Wherever she goes, the eyes of people around her follow her.

"It's not entirely my fault, is it? You seemed to be quite famous before, and there were people who recognized you, right?" Daliansi protested dissatisfiedly.

"These are all small matters that are gradually being forgotten and should have faded away with the passage of time - but now that they have become a big deal, they will be brought up for discussion."

In the past, Li Nian did leave some deeds that were circulated on campus, but they were not known to many people. However, after what happened today, those things might be dug up and further fan the flames.

"Don't worry. Besides, didn't you use a very clever expression? The one about [friend's sister]?"

"I'm so sorry for making a friend out of nothing. It was you who asked me for help. Please cooperate on your end."

"...You don't need to cooperate. I really have a brother."

"Isn't that better?"

"It's just that it's dead."

The girl's voice suddenly became indifferent and sounded a little low.

Li Nian's steps couldn't help but pause slightly.

"…Sorry, didn't mean to bring it up like that."

"I know, it's okay." Daliansi changed his low voice and said with a smile: "Why don't you just cooperate and say that he is my boyfriend? In that case, I acquiesced. It would be difficult for anyone else to have this honor."

Of course Li Nian realized that Dalian Si's intention at that time was to hint him to do so, but if it really came to that, he would be the only one to suffer. When he heard Dalian Si mention it at this time, he sneered.

"... Becoming the boyfriend of a "prodigy"? Then I won't just be a student at school. I'm afraid the media will come looking for me. Shouldn't you be more self-aware and avoid such nonsense as love rumors? Do you have the awareness of being the face of the Onmyoji Agency?"

Dalian Temple sneered.

"Do you really think of me as an idol? Do you think I have to abide by that ridiculous [No Love Regulations]? Don't forget that this is a genuine national first-class demon exorcist. No one dares to interfere with my free love."

"Yes, yes, you are free to do what you want. Don't drag me into this. Thank you very much."

Chapter 244 Conversation in the Restaurant

Walking towards the cafeteria, they chatted with each other in a few words. She noticed Dalian Temple and saw that more and more people were following Li Nian around her. Wherever she went, passers-by's eyes and discussions followed her. The child prodigy was so well-known that Li Nian could feel it clearly even without paying attention.

He sighed, but Dalian Temple had clearly decided to stick with him and had no intention of leaving. Seeing his reaction at this moment, it felt even more refreshing.

Her initial knowledge of Li Nian came only from what Tenwaku Kiyokatsu, the chief of the Curse Search Department, told her. She was warned that he was a very powerful person who had defeated three great monsters under the command of Yuyuko, and that she should not provoke him easily... After arriving in Chiba, she had some contact with him through missions, and she did see a little bit of his strength from several brief confrontations between Li Nian and the cadres of the Nura group, and realized that what Tenwaku Kiyokatsu said was true.

Seeing someone with such strength, who actually seemed not much older than her, she had a competitive spirit and was very curious about Li Nian.

Before transferring to this school, she knew that Li Nian and the daughter of the Isayama family were also studying here. Due to work, she had originally planned to get in touch with these two people when she had the chance. It just so happened that when the tactless idiot confessed to her, she saw Li Nian watching the fun nearby, so she took the initiative to get involved and come over.

The atmosphere of this person in school seems to be different from that of the capable exorcist at work. When on a mission, Li Nian does not conceal his strong aura. He will always hold his head high and monitor the overall situation with a cold gaze. No matter what happens, he will take the initiative to step forward and stand in front. His presence is very strong.

But it seems that when he was in school, he kept a low profile and the atmosphere was much softer...

Thinking of this, Dalian Temple asked.

"Is it so annoying? The feeling of being watched."

"Excessive attention will bring unnecessary trouble. If you can't see the benefits of something, don't do it. If you can see the disadvantages, you should stay away from it."

"I see. I don't hate the feeling of being the center of attention. It seems like boys of your grade also enjoy it. For example, that idiot who just confessed to me seemed to enjoy the atmosphere of being the center of attention."

"Haven't you figured out that guy's intentions a long time ago? If you had rejected him earlier, this wouldn't have happened."

"That's not good. After all, I'm an idol that's approachable to everyone."

"Oh, have you forgotten what you just said as a national-level demon exorcist? Then why don't you just act like an approachable idol? You just left the confessor who was kicked away by me there and came over here? Isn't it a bit bad not to clean up the mess?"

"Ah...Is that so? Well, it doesn't matter whether that idiot lives or dies."

Dalian Si's purely perfunctory attitude showed that she never cared about the boy from the bottom of her heart, which made Li Nian feel a little sad.

He actually hoped that she would take care of the aftermath and not worry about him... But since Daliansi still took the initiative to stick to him, Li Nian knew that it would be difficult to drive her away now, so he just let it go and didn't bother to care about it. He accepted the fact that Daliansi was following him, ignored the eyes around him, and spoke.

"Back to what you said, regarding my opinion on being watched, I have to warn you. I personally prefer this ordinary and quiet daily life and do not intend to reveal my identity as an exorcist. Today's incident is still a small matter. If Master Prodigy cannot grasp this scale, I will be really angry."

It seemed to be the same calm tone as before, with no change, but because of this, it was easy to understand that Li Nian was serious.

Dalian Temple was not so ignorant as to offend a powerful exorcist over such a small matter. He smiled sweetly.

“…People will pay attention.”

As she spoke, to show her sincerity, she snapped her fingers, and invisible waves spread out, covering the two of them. The small spell took effect, blurring the perception of those students who had their eyes on this place. The presence of [Prodigy] and Li Nian suddenly decreased, and all of a sudden, no one paid any attention to this place anymore.

A standard [Invisibility Technique]. Judging from the structure of this technique, it is undoubtedly learned from the book Fanshi Yin-Yang Technique.

However, it was too late for this hindsight. I don’t know how many people saw it along the way, including the storm caused by the previous confession, which could not be subsided...

Li Nian shook his head slightly, but didn't think about it anymore. Instead, he turned and looked in another direction.

Although Dalian Temple's move blocked the sight of ordinary people, it attracted the attention of two other people. It seemed that they were looking for them, and at this time the two people suddenly came closer.

Li Nian said as he looked at the girl walking over there and the brown-haired boy with glasses next to her whom he had met once before.

"Including those two, they should have the same idea as me, you'd better pay attention to them."

"I found you, Li Nian... and Dalian Temple-sama. I wonder if you still remember me. I am Jianshan Huangquan."

The girl was none other than Jianshan, who bowed respectfully to Dalian Temple.

"I remember." Dalianji waved his hand casually. He would occasionally meet this girl in the Yin Yang Hall and was also aware of the title of the next head of the Isayama family, so he recognized her face and name at this time. "Jinguji asked me to say hello to you for her."

"The director didn't tell me. I only learned about Lord Dalian Temple's arrival today. I didn't have time to visit him with gifts. Please forgive me."

It seems that Isayama was not aware of Dalianji's arrival before and only learned of the news today.

"Alright, alright, forget about the politeness. I'm not good at that anyway." Dalianji seemed to have quickly lost interest in Isayama. She turned to look at the boy next to her with a playful smile, "Oh... this is how Nura looks like during the day... I've seen him in the information, but when I see him in person, I don't think he's anything special. He's completely different from the previous Nura. Has he been wearing human skin for so long that it's become seamless?"

The boy smiled gently, not angry at all when being told that, as if he was used to it. However, he ignored Dalian Temple and greeted Li Nian with a smile first.

"Hello, classmate Li Nian. This is the second time I appear in front of you like this."

"This is the second time, Lord Nura."

This person is Nura Rikuo... in human form. The first time I met him was in his class when I went to find Kanda and Shiina. I didn't recognize him at that time. Now that I see him again, I naturally won't make the same mistake.

Even so, Li Nian couldn't help but look the boy up and down with curiosity. He felt that he was just as Dalian Temple said. He had a gentle smile on his face and seemed approachable, but he didn't seem to have any special features. He was completely different from the handsome and elegant Naughty Ghost he had seen before.

"Just call me classmate. Whether inside or outside the school, I actually prefer to be called that."

Not only his appearance, but his personality also seemed to have changed a lot. He seemed much more polite and respectful. Li Nian felt a little uncomfortable.

Dalian Temple laughed and said, "What? He has set his sights on me since he transferred to the school on his first day. Why is he so impatient to come to me?"

"I have something to say, so I informed Isayama-san first. I was just planning to go find you two next time, but I didn't expect you two to be together. This saves me from having to go look for you separately."

Isayama nodded. She suddenly learned today that [Prodigy] had transferred to the school. She was completely confused and was still thinking about when to go and say hello. During lunch break, she received a message from Nura Rikuo, saying that he wanted to look for her - and Li Nian had something to talk about with Dalian Temple who had just transferred to the school today, so she came over with him.

"Is something wrong?"

Li Nian and Dalian Temple looked at each other, both a little surprised, and looked at Jianshan, who also shook her head, indicating that she had just been notified.

"Well, let's go in and talk."

Since we were already at the cafeteria entrance, there was no point in standing outside and talking, so we all went into the restaurant together and found a table.

It was Nura Rikuo who found three exorcists to talk about something, but he himself leisurely took out a luxurious-looking bento and placed it on the table. He didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and motioned for everyone to go buy some food first.

After everyone bought their favorite food, Nura Rikuo opened his lunch box first, revealing the luxurious dishes inside. He clasped his hands together, said "I'm going", and was about to start eating.

Dalian Temple twitched his eyebrows and glanced coldly at Li Nian next to him. She and Isayama just bought some bread and milk, but this guy brought a luxurious version of udon full of beef. He had already opened his chopsticks and was really ready to start eating. He couldn't help but say first: "Hey, hey, Master Nura? You called three exorcists here just to have a meal together? Can you get to the point quickly? My time is very precious... Isayama over there, say something too."

"Ah ha ha……"

Isayama, who has known Nura Rikuo's character well through long-term contact, seems to have gotten used to it and just smiled helplessly.

"What an impatient person." Lu Sheng shook his head and started talking about business, with a casual attitude as if he was talking about trivial matters: "Actually, I just want to tell you that I received news yesterday that Yuyuko seems to have been contacting monster leaders from all over the country recently, intending to discuss an alliance, and the Nura Group is also among the invited ones."

"Oh, I see." Li Nian nodded as if suddenly enlightened, then slurped a mouthful of noodles.

"What? It's just a small matter... No way! Isn't this a big deal!?" Isayama, who was almost led astray by the attitudes of the two people, couldn't help but exclaimed when he came to his senses and stood up from his chair.

Fortunately, the magic of Dalian Temple was still effective and had already surrounded the area, so her big reaction did not attract the attention of those around her.

Not only Isayama, but Dalianji was also surprised when he heard what Nura Rikuo said, and then he showed a solemn expression.

No matter what, they are all genuine national demon-exorcists, and they are very clear about the priorities of things.

But the first thing Dalian Temple felt was suspicion.

"…Are you serious?"

"Believe it or not, it's up to you."

"…This is very important news. Tell us the Exorcist, is that okay?"

"I called you guys here just because I wanted to tell you."

"What benefit will this bring to your Nura clan?" Dalian Temple asked with a frown.

"Of course there are -" Nura Rikuo tilted his head and said, "But I haven't thought of the specific benefits yet."

"You actually said that you haven't thought it through yet..."
