Absolute Speed ​​of a Certain Anime

"Nothing like that."

Jiang Li was panicking in his heart, but his face remained calm.

"Actually, we're just simulating a date, don't get me wrong."

"Yes."

The rich woman on the other side curled her lips, feeling a little unhappy, but still willing to consider the overall situation.

"Actually, we're both just a little curious about dating, so we hit it off and decided to have a mock date. Don't you know that's pretty popular among young people these days?"

It was obviously nonsense, but Jiang Li said it so seriously that he almost believed it himself.

"Yes, that's it."

The rich woman on the other side also replied indifferently.

"I'm engaged, how could I possibly date someone else?"

What a smart rich woman.

Although an engagement is a huge obstacle to their relationship, it becomes a powerful tool to prove their innocence at this time.

No one would have thought that the wealthy lady who usually appears dignified and elegant at school is actually a little devil who loves to pursue excitement in secret.

"Is that so? Am I out of touch with young people? I'm so sorry for misunderstanding you two!"

The two acted so calmly that the girl on the other side believed them without much doubt and apologized profusely.

Jiang Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I got over it.

The girl didn't realize that simulated dating was actually quite strange.

However, considering that this is Neon, there are a lot of rivers inexplicably.

"you are?"

The other party put on an elegant coat and looked the other party up and down.

There is no doubt that this is also a beautiful girl, and her figure is quite good. Although not as good as Daohua or Stella, she is also quite eye-catching.

"Excuse me, I'm Ayatsuji Ayase, a third-year student at Pojun Academy, from Class 1."

The girl opposite quickly put her hands together in front of her abdomen, bowed to the two of them politely, and introduced herself in a soft voice.

No impression.

Jiang Li searched the fate memory bank in his mind, but found no one who matched the appearance of this senior sister, so she probably had never confessed to him.

To be honest, if a senior schoolmate with a great figure and face had confessed to him in the past half month, he would definitely be trying to find ways to say goodbye to his virginity.

However, the surname Ayatsuji, could it be the descendants of that Ayatsuji?

"Why are you here?"

The wealthy woman continued to ask.

Could it be that she was suspicious and thought that Ayatsuji Ayase might have followed them here?

"Actually, my home is nearby..."

Ayatsuji Ayase was unaware and answered Kanata's question honestly.

But when she said this, a deep gloom appeared on her face, but it only lasted for a moment. She quickly adjusted herself and smiled again.

"My father is also receiving treatment in a nearby hospital, so I will come back to visit him during the weekends."

It turned out to be the case.

Bifang nodded slightly, accepting the explanation and putting aside his doubts.

"Excuse me, but could your father be Kaito Ayatsuji?"

Instead, Jiang Li next to her suddenly spoke up and asked her with interest.

"Yes, yes... My father is Ayatsuji Kaito."

Ayase Ayatsuji seemed a little shy. She didn't even dare to look at Jiang Li and just answered evasively.

Jiang Li had seen this kind of reaction many times and didn't care much about it.

"Ayatsuji Kaito? Is he a famous person?"

The rich lady asked, somewhat confused.

"In the world of swordsmen, he is indeed very famous."

Jiang Li nodded.

Ayatsuji Kaito, also known as the "Last Samurai".

It is normal for people like Kanata Furuo who are not interested in martial arts not to know her name, but if someone has been exposed to swordsmanship, he will definitely be familiar with this name.

Although he is not a swordsman, he has very superb swordsmanship. He has won many nationally renowned kendo competitions, such as the Tianlong Imperial Tournament, the East-West Unification Tournament, the Musashi Cup, the Tenth Dan Tournament, etc. He is a swordsman who endlessly pursues the ultimate in kendo.

"Most importantly, although he's not a swordsman, he's been involved in suppressing many criminals with special abilities."

Jiang Li introduced the swordsman's achievements, and even he was very impressed by it.

"Swordsmiths usually possess extremely strong magical defenses, making them difficult to injure even with bullets. However, Ayatsuji Kaito's sword is unaffected by magic, making it quite unique. However, because of this, he is hated by many swordsmiths and has a low reputation in the swordsmith world."

As an ordinary person, Kaito Ayatsuji was able to defeat many Swordsmen criminals, which to a large extent stole the Swordsmen's limelight and made some of the Swordsmen very unhappy, so they joined forces to ban him for a while.

"But we haven't heard much about him in recent years, and he hasn't attended any competitions."

Jiang Li recalled the information about Ayatsuji Kaito in his mind, "The most recent match was at least two or three years ago, right? So he fell ill?"

Hmm...why does it feel like déjà vu?

Jiang Li suddenly paused.

It's not like he hasn't had this feeling before. During the time he was lying in the hospital bed, Jiang Li felt strangely familiar when he saw news on TV such as "Black Iron Dragon Horse died of illness"... Could it be that he had touched upon the plot of the original novel?

"Yes, my father was diagnosed with heart disease more than two years ago and has since retired."

Ayatsuji Ayase's expression gradually darkened.

For her, such an outstanding father is also her admiration. Even if she becomes a swordsman, her father has always been her goal.

"heart disease……"

Jiang Li immediately understood.

Although the technology in this world is quite advanced and medical technology has become very advanced due to the existence of the Swordsmen, there are still many difficult and complicated diseases that have not been conquered. Heart disease is one of the terminal illnesses that are fatal if they occur.

With this terminal illness, even if the world's best doctor were to treat it, he would be helpless. Not to mention that with the assets and connections of the Ayatsuji family, there is no way to hire a doctor of that level.

Naturally, Ayatsuji Kaito had no choice but to retire and enjoy his old age.

Considering the character of a swordsman like that, he must have been very reluctant when he retired.

Although Jiang Li sensed the plot, after so many years, he no longer cared about the plot, so he did not force it. He chatted with Ayatsuji Ayase for a few more words and then parted ways with her.

Ayatsuji Ayase went to the front desk to order food, while Jiang Li and Kanata continued to eat their unfinished dinner.

Because of this disruption, they had to eat faster so that they wouldn't miss the school gate on their way back.

“Crack!”

The sound of wind chimes rang out from the door, and several figures came in one after another.

Bifang was sitting facing the main entrance of the restaurant. She caught a glimpse of these people out of the corner of her eye and couldn't help but frown.

"what happened?"

Jiang Li noticed the change in her expression and asked.

"He's a student from the Greedy Wolf Academy."

The other party lowered his voice, his expression slightly tense.

"The leader was one of the top eight finalists in last year's Seven Star Sword Dance Festival. He's quite powerful and a bit of a troublemaker."

Chapter 77 Come and hit me, weakling

2023-06-01

Jiang Li turned his head and looked.

About a dozen people, all wearing the same rouge-colored shirts, were men around seventeen or eighteen years old. They walked into the restaurant, arguing and pushing each other.

The man in the lead was about 180 centimeters tall, with brown hair and slightly ferocious eyes that looked three white.

He was also wearing a rouge-colored shirt, but it hung loosely on his body, revealing a hideous skull tattoo from the open part on his chest.

Jiang Li immediately understood why the rich woman had shown such a look of rejection just now.

This wild guy, full of frivolity and viciousness, exudes an air of arrogance and dominance at all times and places. Obviously, he falls right into the rich woman's trap and is the type she hates very much.

"I remember that man. I saw him during the live broadcast of the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival last year."

Jiang Li narrowed his eyes and looked at the leading man thoughtfully.

The rouge-colored uniform top, with the school emblem on the chest, was clearly the uniform of Tanlang Academy, one of the Seven Star Academies along with Pojun Academy.

As for the man who exuded a sense of oppression, Jiang Li remembered that he had attended the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival last year and was one of the contestants from Tanlang Academy last year.

Although he lost in the quarterfinals, it also shows that he is at least at the national quarterfinal level.

——Especially his title of "Swordsman Killer", which seems too overbearing and he simply doesn't take anyone in the world into consideration.

"The look of us not noticing."

The dozen or so people walked straight to the ordering area and pushed out the people in the queue in front of them in a very rude manner. People were angry but dared not say anything, but they themselves looked indifferent.

"Uneducated fellows."

The rich woman on the other side looked very unhappy.

But she had no intention of forcing herself to take the lead.

If students from the two academies were to fight outside, it would easily cause confrontation between the schools, which would then lead to a lot of trouble.

As a member of the student union, the rich lady Kanata was already very busy during the selection period, but she didn't want to get involved with a hungry wolf like this, which would be a thankless task.

"That's right, let's leave quickly after eating."

Jiang Li had no objection either.

The two gathered the food on the table, quickly filled their stomachs, and tried to stay out of the matter.

but--

"Clang-crack-!"

The sound of a plate falling to the ground suddenly came from the ordering area.

The loud and shrill sound made the entire restaurant silent for a moment.

Jiang Li and Bifang frowned at the same time.

"Let me go, you bastards!"

Then there were angry shouts filled with indignation, accompanied by physical conflicts and the sound of counters being knocked down.

That voice sounded familiar.

If my memory serves me correctly, it should be the angry roar of the girl named Ayatsuji Ayase.

Jiang Li put down his chopsticks.

"Wait a minute, what do you want to do?"

The rich woman on the other side looked over, her eyes full of warning.

"If students from different schools start fighting each other, it's not easy to settle!"

Suspension is a minor punishment.

In serious cases, you may even be expelled from school.

"It's not something that can be easily resolved, but that means it can be resolved, right?"
