Wu lowered his head to look at the inky black liquid in his cup. It was obvious that he had drunk it before. Now that he remembered its taste, his face changed slightly, but he still pretended to be calm and picked up the cup to take a sip.

“…! Ugh! So hot and bitter…”

Wu Geng finally couldn't bear the hot and bitter taste and stuck out his tongue with a bitter face.

The true colors are revealed, so why should I order it?

"Do you need sugar and milk?" Li Nian asked kindly.

"……don't want."

"Okay, your answer is full of courage and determination, so I believe you can finish what you ordered."

"..." Wu Geng showed a regretful expression, but raised his head stubbornly: "Of course I can finish it!"

Seeing this, Kasumigaoka smiled. How could she not see that the girl was trying to show off in front of her? She turned around and said to Li Nian, "In the final analysis, success always depends on whether the work is interesting enough... Your book seems to have this potential. Let me finish reading it quietly."

……

……

At the same time, Isayama family.

Isayama, who had been exhausted from a week of work and school, was enjoying his rare holiday by sleeping soundly with his head covered.

But the good times didn't last long. The sudden ringing of the phone scared her so much that she jumped up from the bed.

She was awakened from her sleep and looked blankly at the phone that was vibrating and ringing beside her pillow. She was stunned for three seconds, and suddenly showed a furious expression and grabbed the phone and was about to smash it to the ground...

But finally she calmed down at the last moment.

After taking a few deep breaths, she looked at the caller notes first.

"Kosaka..."

She was suddenly startled and became much more sober. She immediately picked up the phone and put it to her ear.

"Yes, Officer Kosaka, this is Isayama... What, a murder happened? Right here in the area? It's suspected to be a third-level spiritual disaster!? I see, I'll be there right away."

Without caring about getting angry again, Jianshan hung up the phone and immediately got out of bed. However, before changing her clothes, she suddenly remembered something. A person's face appeared in her mind and she looked at her phone again.

Should I call that guy Li Nian...

But she remembered what Xia Zhiqiu had said to Li Nian when he used her phone, and looked at the clock.

"They should still be discussing things at this time... Never mind, I'll go over and take a look at the situation first."

She decided not to call Li Nian for the time being. She changed her clothes and headed to the crime scene by herself.

……

……

Ever since she said she would read Li Nian's manuscript carefully, Kasumigaoka stopped talking and never raised her eyes from the book. She quietly turned the pages, slower and slower, and more and more seriously.

Shiina quietly finished her pineapple bun and reached for the snacks on Kanda's table...

"that's me……"

"Quiet!" Kasumigaoka shouted, and Kanda was so scared that he shut his mouth. His body was stiff and he dared not move. He watched Shiina take the cake from his plate as if nothing had happened.

When Wu Geng saw this scene, he swallowed back the words he wanted to say.

Li Nian, who was sitting next to her, quietly observed Kasumigaoka and knew that she had entered a state of concentration. She felt that she was indeed a literary girl beauty. Her profile looked even more peaceful and beautiful when she was reading.

After taking a look, he turned to the three people opposite him, shrugged apologetically, stood up silently, went to the counter and ordered some food for everyone, and when he came back, he brought a stack of reading materials and put them quietly on the table. He picked up a book himself, drank coffee and started to read quietly, quite happy to have some free time.

Kanda and Gogen followed suit.

Time passes quietly in the melodious and peaceful music.

Shiina finished eating Kanda's snacks and seemed satisfied. He actually fell asleep on the sofa.

Kanda picked up a magazine about game production and started reading it. Unconsciously, he became interested and began to read it seriously.

Wu Geng picked up a novel that interested him, but he couldn't concentrate on reading it. He felt a little restless and kept looking at Kasumigaoka's reaction from the opposite side.

——Because of this, she was the first person to discover the strange phenomenon in Kasumigaoka.

"Xia-Xia Shizi-sensei...you?"

Gogen's stunned voice broke the silence, and everyone came back to their senses after a while.

Kanda looked up and saw the appearance of Kasumigaoka Utaha, and couldn't help but tremble with shock - Shiina, who was leaning on his shoulder in a daze, suddenly slipped down, woke up, looked at Kasumigaoka, was confused for a while, then tilted his head and asked.

"Why are you crying?"

Li Nian turned her head to look, and yes, just as Shiina said, Kasumigaoka was crying, with tears flowing from her eyes, dripping down her cheeks onto the manuscript - the manuscript had already been turned to the last page.

"..."

Despite behaving so out of control in front of everyone, Kasumigaoka just reached out and quietly wiped away her tears, silently closed Li Nian's manuscript, took a deep breath, and turned to Li Nian.

Although there was redness in the corners of her eyes, her expression seemed calm and peaceful.

"…You really wrote it out, without any cumbersomeness, cleanly and neatly, leaving no room for ambiguity."

The layman watches the excitement, while the expert watches the details. When Li Nian heard this evaluation, he knew that Xia Shizi had a sharper vision and could see where her strengths lay.

“I guess so, because I put a lot of energy into thinking about it.”

Kasumigaoka said firmly.

"This book is worth publishing. The editor of the library will definitely see this. I believe that in the near future, I will see your book appear on the shelves of stores."

"I accept your good words."

"You are an excellent author." After a pause, Kasumigaoka added: "Better than me."

"Is it that serious..." Wu Geng muttered, but if she really had to compare the two of them, she couldn't tell who was better.

"...You're exaggerating." Li Nian smiled bitterly, feeling that everyone would praise him to death after reading his book.

“I can’t write what you can write.”

“The writing direction and areas of specialization are just different.”

“Not only that.” Kasumigaoka shook her head, but stretched as if she felt refreshed: “Okay... I won’t say anymore. I’m becoming less and less confident. Seeing such a terrifying junior, I feel a deep sense of crisis. I can’t wait to go back and write the manuscript... But before that, I have to deal with the problem of Mr. Shiina’s comics... I’m sorry to have left you alone for so long, Mr. Shiina, because Li Nian’s book is really amazing, and I was addicted to it without realizing it..."

"It's ok."

"So, Mr. Shiina, if you don't mind, would you like to come to my house to discuss this in detail, or I can go to your place. I think there are some areas in your comics that can be improved?"

Shiina nodded without hesitation.

"Then Shiina, let's go back to Sakurasou first."

It seemed that they would have a second separate meeting. Seeing this, Li Nian waved her hand and decided to leave.

"Wait." Kasumigaoka asked curiously, "I know that Shiina-san lives in Sakurasou...but do you also live in Sakurasou?"

“…That’s right.”

"Then let's go to Sakurasou." Kasumigaoka suddenly made a decision.

"No, if we're talking about a conversation, Sakurasou is a bit..." Li Nian looked at Kanda who looked embarrassed, "Well, it's true that it's a bit awkward to let Shiina go to your place alone. If you don't mind the shabby place, then come on."

Kasumigaoka is going to have a second meeting with Shiina and decides to go back to Sakurasou with them. Gogen is now living in Li Nian's former home and they share a similar journey, so everyone sets out on the journey home together.

While walking on the road, Shiina began to discuss some issues related to comics with Kasumigaoka, and Kanda acted as a translator for Shiina to prevent her from misunderstanding her ideas.

Li Nian walked behind and watched them quietly, and Wu Geng suddenly spoke to him.

"You asked me before if I was working towards my career, right?"

"Hmm? Ah, that's what happened."

"And yourself?"

"..."

“You should have thought about this too.”

“…I used to think about it, but not now.”

"Why?" Wu Geng asked, "You are already so outstanding."

"I wasn't so outstanding before. I was very ordinary, just like you." Li Nian shook his head: "And my current excellence... is given to me by God."

"...What?" Wu Geng didn't understand.

Li Nian knew that she didn't understand, but she continued to talk to herself: "This is not without cost. I have things to do, responsibilities to fulfill, my job..."

His cell phone suddenly rang.

Li Nian said no more, took out his phone and looked at it silently.

"Isayama?"

He answered the phone.

"I'm Li Nian, what's going on?"

Isayama's voice was filled with anxiety, and he said loudly: "The bodies of third-year student Yamamoto and others were found here! They showed signs of being tortured before they died, and it was definitely done by a monster... I suspect that Yuyuko's subordinates came here! They may have asked Yamamoto about you! The bodies died four hours ago, which means that now they may have..."

At this moment, a sudden change occurred.

A beam of black light tore through the space and shot straight towards Li Nian!

I have read all the posts, and I can already feel your passion (murderous intent)!

I want to write, too!

However, my friends in the group knew that I ran to catch the bus right after I finished the update at six in the morning. I have been running back and forth all day. Now I just got off the train and arrived at the hotel. I haven’t had a good sleep. I have a splitting headache and can’t continue typing. I must take a break.

So just be patient, yes, I mean you over there, put down the hammer and machete in your hand and talk nicely!

Give me some time and I'll write it.

Have you ever been deceived by the painful pigeons? The brackets are funny?

Chapter 133 Seriously Injured

The light flashed away incredibly fast. Wu Geng and others had not noticed it yet, but Li Nian saw it clearly.

Enemy attack!

He made the right judgment, and immediately spread out his senses. The spiritual power in his body roared and surged, and he instantly entered a combat state. He keenly and clearly judged the might of this attack and how much terrifying energy was condensed in it. His brain and body subconsciously made the most correct judgment in this situation, which was to hide...

No!

Li Nian knew that he had time to hide, but the people behind him didn't! Not only Wu Geng and his group, but the people around him also didn't have time to hide!

In the blink of an eye, the black light had already shot in front of my eyes, leaving no time for further thinking.

Li Nian did not hesitate, but knelt down and stepped forward towards the black light. An ice knife instantly took shape in his hand, and he dragged the knife upward to chop, colliding with the black light. At the same time, all his spiritual power swept out, and the man, the knife, and the energy became one, and he attacked with all the strength that could be burst out in an instant.

The situation was urgent, and among many methods he had no time to use the most stupid, wasteful, but also useful one, which was to release his spiritual power. At this moment, he was outputting his spiritual power to the maximum extent.

Facts have proved that his judgment was correct.

The blade collided with the tiny black light, which suddenly stagnated and exploded the next moment. The energy wrapped in it suddenly overflowed, finally revealing a spinning spear underneath. The exploded energy did not dissipate, but turned into a blazing black flame, which was entangled by a spiral force, pushing the tip of the spear forward. At this moment, the hidden offensive broke out!

The two energies crushed each other, making a loud bang, the earth cracked, and the air waves picked up the gravel and shot it in all directions. Under the huge force, every grain of sand and gravel became a deadly bullet!

This is an inevitable impact.

But there was no prior warning, no timely evacuation. The sidewalks were filled with people, people, and people. No one expected the sudden outbreak of a battle. They were about to be dragged into it without any resistance. Even if it was just flying sand and gravel, their fragile flesh and blood bodies like those of ordinary people would be shot into pieces. The street, which had just been a scene of joy and peace, would turn into a living hell in the next moment.

Li Nian's aura increased again, and his spiritual power radiated a second time, splitting into large strands that instantly wrapped around the gravel, forcibly swallowing it before the gravel shot out.

But as a result, inevitably, his originally solid defense became scattered.

There was a sharp pain, and gravel swept across Li Nian's cheek, cutting small wounds. At the same time, there was a click, and cracks appeared on his ice skates.

If the ice blade shattered at this moment, Li Nian's aura would be lost, and his defense would collapse...

But Li Nian did not give up.
