A Familiar Back

An Ran didn't think the punishment was too harsh. Even if someone's limbs were broken, they could still live their lives after recovering, except they couldn't fight or hurt others. But the girls they hurt would suffer indelible Mind Stone trauma, living in the shadows for the rest of their lives, their lives ruined.

The punishment they are receiving is deserved, An Ran thinks it's not excessive at all, and she wholeheartedly agrees with the boy's seemingly ruthless actions!

The mysterious boy who appeared at the crucial moment, rescued her from her Extremis, and ruthlessly broke all the thugs' limbs, was, in An Ran's eyes at this moment, a chivalrous Hero with superb martial arts skills from a movie.

They stand up for the weak and rescue them from danger when they are bullied or harmed.

He also personally punished the villains who could not be punished by law, eliminating future troubles!

Coupled with his swift attacks that An Ran couldn't even see clearly, the powerful martial arts he displayed when easily defeating six or seven experienced thugs, and his calm and decisiveness when breaking the limbs of several people one by one, his identity Hero in An Ran's mind was further confirmed.

In An Ran's mind, this boy was a Martial Arts Master hidden among ordinary people. He was highly skilled in martial arts, but he never showed it in front of ordinary people. However, when he encountered villains committing crimes, he stepped forward to help them and save them from danger.

When the boy rescued her and punished the thugs, An Ran did not take the opportunity to escape, but stood aside and watched him quietly, her eyes shining brighter and brighter.

After the boy finished dealing with the group of scum on the ground, he didn't say anything, but turned around and wanted to leave.

An Ran that this "Hero" was about to "leave without a trace after accomplishing his task, concealing his merits and fame," An Ran quickly called out to stop him.

"Thank you for saving me!"

The boy's back, which had already emerged from the darkness, was clearly visible in front of An Ran. Just as she had guessed, the clothes he was wearing were her school uniform, which meant that the "Hero" who saved her was her classmate or senior!

However, because the light was too dim in the darkness and the other party was deliberately concealing himself, An Ran was unable to see his face clearly.

An Ran really wanted to know who the person who saved her was, but he didn't turn around. He just lowered his voice and whispered something.

"Hurry home!"

They then quickly left and disappeared into the distance.

An Ran waited until the other party had completely disappeared before she came to her senses. Looking at the thugs lying on the ground groaning in pain, An Ran felt fear again. With lingering fear in her heart, she quickly ran away, back to her bicycle lying on the ground, picked it up, and fled as if she were running away.

The thugs whose limbs were broken didn't dare call the police. Who would they arrest? The rapist or the good Samaritan? At most, the other party could only be considered to have acted in excessive self-defense, while their attempted rape could get them sentenced to several years in prison.

Moreover, they didn't even see what the other person looked like, calling the police was useless, and they even got themselves into trouble. In the end, they could only swallow their anger and accept their bad luck.

Although she was quite frightened the first day, fortunately the "Hero" appeared in An Ran and she was not harmed. She didn't tell her family for fear of worrying them. After a good night's sleep, she recovered a lot and didn't have any nightmares. Instead, she dreamed of a masked Hero with a long sword on his back, doing good deeds and eliminating evil.

After waking up in the morning, the image of the chivalrous figure who looked exactly like the boy who saved him often appeared in his mind.

The next day, An Ran arrived at school first as usual, opened the classroom door and sat in her seat, her mind filled with the image of that figure that appeared in both reality and her dream.

Just thinking about that figure An Ran with an overwhelming sense of security, making her feel fearless!

While she was lost in thought, her classmates gradually entered the classroom.

Suddenly, a very familiar figure appeared in her line of sight. An Ran quickly looked up and saw a classmate slowly sitting down in his seat a few rows in front of her.

An Ran stared wide-eyed in disbelief as the figure in her mind gradually overlapped with the one in her back—it was him!

An Ran's face flushed with excitement, and she placed her hands on the table, immediately wanting to get up and walk over.

But soon, An Ran relaxed and sat back down.

She remembered that the other person had been avoiding her and hadn't shown his face all night, clearly not wanting her to know his true identity. If that was the case, why should she expose him?

As long as she knows it herself, that's enough!

The true identity of the "Hero" who saved her is Chen Mo!

He left school quite late that day, and when he heard An Ran calling for help behind him, he rushed over and rescued her in time.

However, Chen Mo was furious when he realized what these people were doing.

In Chen Mo's view, it wouldn't be wrong to kill the rapist directly. However, he was still young back then, and his spatial abilities were not strong. He still had some concerns and was unable to completely break free from the constraints of worldly rules.

Breaking his limbs was the limit he could do at the time. This was because he was so furious when he saw a group of people trying to rape her classmate. As for killing, he still had a strong psychological barrier to it at the time.

It wasn't until several years later, when his grandfather was seriously injured in a car accident, that he finally overcame the obstacle and took this step.

When Chen Mo learned that Chen Mo was the highly skilled martial arts Hero who saved her last night, she was An Ran surprised. She never expected that Chen Mo, who usually kept a low profile and acted very ordinary in all aspects, was actually a hidden Martial Arts Master!

From then on, although An Ran never revealed anything, she kept a close eye on Chen Mo and gradually discovered Chen Mo extraordinary qualities from some details.

For example, his grades were actually very good. He could answer many questions that others couldn't, but he was only slightly above average in every exam. The questions he got wrong were not very difficult. His teachers and classmates thought he was just careless. Only she knew that Chen Mo was hiding his true abilities.

The difficult questions seemed easy to him, so he couldn't distinguish between them and ended up making a few mistakes.

It was even more obvious in physical education class. Although his running results were only average to above average, while everyone else was exhausted after the race, he remained unfazed. Moreover, whether it was basketball, soccer, high jump, long jump, running, or javelin, Chen Mo's performance in all events was average to above average, and he did not perform too badly in any of them.

Since none of them were top-notch, they didn't attract the attention of others. Only An Ran paid special attention to Chen Mo, noticed these details that others had overlooked.
