After lunch, Fang Zheng took a walk along the streets to settle his stomach. Then he received another phone call, changed direction again, made several turns... and headed to the school festival plaza.
"This time, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"
Seeing this, Mikana breathed a sigh of relief. She had genuinely been worried about what she would do if Fang Zheng went to meet some other girl again. But now he was heading to the school festival grounds, so he clearly had business there. She no longer had to listen to Momo's nonsense.
Eve, however, frowned and stared ahead.
"Something seems off."
"Huh?"
Hearing Eve speak, everyone looked up and finally noticed a group of men in suits standing at the entrance to the plaza. They wore sunglasses and did not look like decent people. They had completely blocked the entrance, while a group of students stood opposite them, watching helplessly without knowing what to do.
"What's going on?"
Fang Zheng had also arrived at the plaza entrance. Seeing this, he frowned and stepped forward to ask a student. He had just received a call saying something had happened at the venue, which was why he had come to check. But he had not expected this sort of situation.
"Ah, you're from Cainan..."
"That's right. What happened?"
"You can see it. They've blocked the entrance and won't let us in."
As the main venue for the joint school festival, Cainan Plaza naturally did not belong only to Cainan, Yuioka, and Nijigasaki. Other schools also needed to set up their own stages. As a result, people from those schools were now trapped both inside and outside, and no one dared argue with the men. After all, these people blocking the way were not delinquents, but a group of vicious-looking gangsters.
