After a long while, Xiangzi didn't know whether he had adapted or the pain had subsided, and he spoke with sweat all over his forehead.
“…Huh…Huh, what is this place? A coffin? Why is there light all around you?”
Chaoyang began to understand the logic of what Xiangzi said and realized that she had regained consciousness.
"We're buried underground. I have some defensive magic surrounding us, but it's constantly being broken by the pressure of the rocks and soil, and the cycle keeps repeating. Are you okay?"
"...I was saved again...I'm sorry for putting you in such a situation."
As the conversation went on, Xiangzi remembered what happened before he fell into a coma. Seeing Chaoyang lying on him with sweat all over his forehead, and the strange magic shield around the two of them constantly shattering and then reorganizing, he knew that he had fallen into a vicious circle.
"What an idiot! Why did you come in here?"
Xiangzi made a sound that was almost a sigh, lowered his eyes silently, and bit his lip.
"I didn't mean to run in, but my body moved on its own. If it was a beautiful girl I knew."
Seeing Xiangzi's expression, Chaoyang wanted her not to feel that she owed him anything, so he spoke casually. Of course, he didn't lie.
"So if it was Chihaya or Soyo, you would also rush in without hesitation?"
Xiangzi's voice immediately turned cold.
However, Chaoyang was still distracted by constantly activating defensive magic, so he didn't hear any clues and continued to reply indifferently.
"As long as it's a beautiful girl I know, my body will automatically run to save her. There's nothing I can do about it. I can't control it myself."
Although he didn't mean it, it was indeed the truth. Not to mention someone like Su Shi Aine whom Chaoyang had a crush on, he would save even Li Xi.
"Hmph... I'm so sorry... Could you please not get so close to me? I'm sweating and smelly."
Xiangzi suddenly tried to push Chaoyang away with his weak hands like an unreasonable little girl. Xiangzi knew that he could not do such a thing, but he subconsciously wanted to do it.
"Really, could you please stop making a fuss now? Do you want to be buried alive?"
"...Hey, I want to be buried alive. After all my hard work, this is the end. How do you want me to survive in this situation? Eat your flesh? Drink your blood? If I survive like that, will I still be myself?..."
Xiangzi's mouth twisted with sadness, and as he spoke, tears began to seep out of the corners of his eyes and were about to fall.
"Betrayed by my father, I was engaged to you, and it took a while for things to turn around. I also worked so hard to put together a band, and we already had performances scheduled... But then a natural disaster struck, and I was exhausted and didn't want to live anymore... You must have a way to survive, right? You..."
Chaoyang blocked Xiangzi's shouting lips with his own lips.
"…………!!!"
Xiangzi's eyes almost popped out of their sockets in surprise, and her whole body froze as if she had been cast under a spell.
Xiangzi's cherry lips were as soft as cherry blossom petals. Chaoyang could see that she was upset, but now he couldn't hold it back any longer.
At this time, Xiangzi finally reacted, but did not resist... After a while, their lips parted and they both breathed at the same time.
"Calm down..."
"...How cunning of you to pull this trick at a time like this... As expected, you're still that playboy..."
"It's because you suddenly lost your temper. There's nothing I can do about it... Is this your first kiss?"
"Hmph, please don't treat me like a little girl. If you want to see my ugly face when you take my first kiss, forget it. I don't place much importance on first kisses, and I don't think they have any commemorative value."
But even as Xiangzi said this, his tightly pursed lips trembled slightly, obviously due to the power of the kiss just now.
"Okay, we have to get out now..."
Chaoyang felt the flame of desire gradually spreading throughout his body.
[Fuck myself, I'm so hopeless, wanting to do something like this at a time like this.]
"What do you think of me..."
"...I have many girlfriends...and I don't intend to give up on them..."
Chaoyang answered Xiangzi's question indirectly.
"How cunning... You're trying to evade me with this kind of answer..."
Listening to Xiangzi's mumbling, Chaoyang continued to speak his own words.
"I used too much power this time. Remember to stay away from me after you leave here. My use of power has side effects. My desires will surge. This time, I used power for many days in a row and kept holding it back."
"How are you going to get out in this situation?"
Xiangzi narrowed his eyes and tilted his head slightly to look at the rising sun.
"Haven't you noticed from the beginning that the range of my defensive magic has been changing every time I activate it? From the very beginning, I've been using the shape of the defensive magic to fine-tune the position of the surrounding rocks and soil sliding down. Just now, while we were talking, I finally created a space where I didn't need to maintain the defensive magic temporarily. In this other world, there's a magic that every magician knows, the most basic magic. It's called killing magic, and its special feature is penetration. Do you understand what I'm trying to do? But I don't have the magic power to activate the defensive magic and use it at the same time, so now... Zoltraak!"
"boom!!!"
Like a beam of light of salvation, the white light shot up into the sky and reached the ground directly. At this time, Chaoyang had already started to use flying magic to slowly ascend while holding Xiangzi. Although the soil and rocks on both sides kept sliding down, Chaoyang also kept shooting lasers to grind the sliding gravel into powder to prevent them from hindering their ascent.
"Sunlight!"
When the long-lost sunlight hit Xiangzi's face, she realized that she had escaped.
She gasped for fresh air.
Chaoyang didn't stop as soon as he landed on the solid ground. While no one was watching, Chaoyang held Xiangzi in a princess hug and ran with her.
"?"
"You have a head injury, right? Of course I'll take you to the hospital..."
366. Your mind is full of Xiangzi!
At this time, Aiyin followed the frantically running Suye to the collapse site. Of course, they were not allowed to enter. So they just watched and listened from outside.
I saw people being carried out on stretchers one after another, but they were not covered with white cloth to prove that they were still alive.
"That's great. It seems no one has died yet..."
"Don't you know? It seems everyone's still alive. I have a friend on the rescue team who posted on social media right away. I just happened to come over to check out the situation. By the way, ladies, would you two like to have some tea together?"
"Ahaha, we have something else to do, so we'll leave first~~"
A passerby next to Aine and Su Shi suddenly spoke to them and told them information they didn't know, which immediately made them feel a little relieved. Aine supported Su Shi and planned to leave this place.
"Soyo-san, it looks like everyone has been rescued. Let's go somewhere and rest for a while and wait for Chaoyang to contact us. He'll definitely reply as soon as he sees the message!"
This is Aine's confidence. Ever since she came back to this world, Chaoyang always responds to her quickly.
Aine smiled. "As expected, nothing will happen as long as Chaoyang is here~~ He told me he's very lucky~..."
At this point, Aiyin suddenly realized something. Was it also luck that she was able to be teleported to the moment when he was doing that?
Sushi had no idea what was going through Aine's mind at the moment. Initially, she'd heard about Shoko's accident, and the adrenaline had surged in her, sending her sprinting here like crazy. But now that the adrenaline was fading, exhaustion had overtaken her, so she wanted to rest. Just then, a man in a suit rushed out, looking devastated.
"…Could something have happened?"
It always makes people feel uneasy to see people with this expression at a rescue scene.
"Let's go after him and ask if there's anything going on. After all, he just came out and he must know what's going on. Just say that our family or friends are down there."
After saying that, Aine, who was very active, grabbed Su Shi’s hand without saying anything and ran over.
One after the other, they arrived at a secluded path.
"that……"
Just as Aine approached to say hello, the man started making a phone call.
"Butler! Butler! It's over! The young master had already come out, but he ran back into the tunnel to save Miss Xiangzi. And before we could even figure out what was going on, it collapsed!!! It's all over! I shouldn't have told the master so quickly that the young master was safe. Will the master kill me?! Butler, help me! Hello? Hello? He's dead!"
The two people hiding behind immediately covered their mouths in disbelief after hearing the news.
"That...that! We...I'm Chaoyang's girlfriend, and you said Chaoyang and Saki-chan were buried."
In order to confirm the information, Aiyin took the risk and claimed to be Chaoyang's girlfriend.
"You, you are the young master's girlfriend? Did you hear what I just said?"
"Hmm. What happened there?"
"...It's what we just talked about on the phone! What a unnecessary question! I finally found a high-paying job, but now it's all gone... If I hadn't told Master that news, it would have been fine. But after I told Master, and he was just happy, and then I told him this news right away, I'm definitely going to get mad at him!!!"
What this person from the Toyokawa family said echoed the mood of Aine and Suyo. Aine and Suyo, who had originally relaxed, were on the verge of collapse again.
Su Shi fainted on the spot.
"Soyo-san! Soyo-san! Um...can you help me..."
Aine was just about to ask the Toyokawa family member to help lift Su Shi a little bit, but when she turned around, she found that he had disappeared.
"I can't believe you left a fainted girl here like this... If I ever became the wife of the Toyokawa family, I would definitely fire you!"
Aiyin's little canine teeth were exposed.
I have no choice but to carry Soyo-san back on my back. Even though Chaoyang is buried underground, I feel like he's alright for some reason... As for Saki-chan...
Although Aiyin unconsciously avoided it in her heart, she actually didn't have much feelings for Xiangzi. Unlike Su Shi, she was only worried about Chaoyang, so what she said was a bit sad, but only a little bit.
"Yoshi, Soyo-san is quite light~~Ah...damn, it's bigger than mine."
Aine felt the soft weight behind her, and after reluctantly admitting that she was smaller, she began to move forward.
I felt tired after walking just a few steps.
"Let's take a taxi..."
And at this moment, Aine suddenly felt a vibration.
"Oh, is there another earthquake?"
In an instant, a big hole suddenly appeared in the ground, and a white light emerged at the same time. However, at the same time as the white light broke out of the ground, it turned into light particles and dissipated.
Aine's heart suddenly began to beat with excitement. Although she had never seen such a sight before, she had subconsciously connected all the incredible things with Chaoyang. She immediately felt that this was Chaoyang's arm.
Just as I was about to go over, a black shadow emerged from the ground and stood on the ground.
Aiyin immediately recognized that it was Chaoyang, and the person he was holding in his arms like a princess, Aiyin also recognized that it was Xiangzi,
"towards……"
Before he could even utter a sound, Chaoyang had already carried Xiangzi away and leaped into the distance.
"This guy! He actually ignored me! He always notices me when he's around me normally!"
Habits are terrible. Aiyin had become accustomed to Chaoyang satisfying her needs at any time. The long period of not seeing each other and not having any phone calls caused her extreme discomfort, especially when she saw him come out and hug Xiangzi just now, Aiyin didn't even realize that she had a hint of anger.
"Still holding Saki-chan... That direction doesn't seem to be where the Toyokawa family is... Hmm? Are they going to the hospital? Soyo-san, wake up! Saki-chan is still alive, wake up quickly!"
Aiyin put Su Shi down from behind, patted her face, repeated Xiangzi's message in her ear, and finally woke Su Shi up again.
"Saki-chan! Saki-chan is still alive?"
"Really? Soyo-san's mind is full of Saki-chan. Maybe one of them got hurt and went to that hospital. I remember there's a Nomura Hospital. Let's go check it out."
…………
Xiangzi was rushed to the emergency room and the CT scan results came out soon.
"Fortunately, there was no obvious intracranial hemorrhage or skull crack, but there was mild brain swelling. He needs to be hospitalized for further observation and treatment. He was arranged to rest in a specially adjusted bed with his head slightly elevated to reduce intracranial pressure and prevent further swelling. He is expected to recover relatively quickly."
Facing the doctor's words, Xiangzi
"No! I can't be hospitalized. I have a performance tomorrow. Give me your phone!"
"This……"
The doctor looked at Chaoyang.
"Doctor, don't worry about arranging her for hospitalization. Just follow my lead here."
367. Fighting for People? [4k]
"The latest good news from the scene: Most of the 297 people buried by the earthquake have survived, but four were killed instantly by rocks hitting their heads due to a secondary collapse, and two others are missing... Ah, wait, let me correct the previous report. The two missing people have escaped through another exit and are now receiving treatment at the hospital. This station will continue to follow up on this matter..."
