Still pretending not to know me, you despicable fellow?!

"Urgent?"

Every time I see you, you seem so relaxed, engrossed in your phone. And then you tell me you have something urgent to do?

After thinking for a moment, Raiden Mei smiled kindly and said:

"What's the emergency? Maybe I can help."

PS: Mo Yi's favorite thing to do is to turn those self-proclaimed ice queen beauties into silly beauties!

In the previous chapters, there was a scene where Raiden Mei was implanted with the Conquest Gem. That was something the author looked up on Moe Girl Encyclopedia online. It should be a plot from Honkai 2, or is it wrong?

Chapter 72: Is Eriyi as cute and pretty as Mei?!

"There's a poor girl who needs my help—"

Faced with this person in front of him, whose name Mo Yi still didn't know but who seemed to have an explosively long, straight black hair, Mo Yi still came up with a rather subtle reason.

Poor girl? Help?

You actually rejected my promise to Raiden Mei because of another girl! Do you know that this is the dream of countless boys?

No, I was going to reject their confession anyway, so why am I so conflicted now?

Isn't it exactly what she wanted if the other person had someone else they liked?

That makes sense, but Raiden Mei was still very angry. Today, she felt like a monkey being played by the other party. She sat by the stone bridge for more than an hour in the 30-degree sun and was watched by everyone. Without a doubt, people were talking about her embarrassing situation behind her back. Did Raiden Mei suffer in vain?

Moreover

Because of what happened before, Raiden Mei had a low level of trust in Mo Yi, the boy who would stand people up. She couldn't help but wonder if he was serious or just trying to forget his homework and was making up an excuse to fool the teacher.

This is a question that Raiden Mei should consider. It has been said that Raiden Mei is not a naive and innocent person, so naturally she won't believe everything Mo Yi says.

"A girl from the Senba Academy? What's her name?"

The other party didn't come at noon, so the only people who can help are those within the Senba Academy.

To confirm whether the other party was still lying to her, Raiden Mei naturally pressed for details, knowing that the more lies one tells, the easier it is to expose flaws.

"I can help—"

Mo Yi: "..."

Why do you know so much about soju?

High school girls should be focusing on their studies. How can they be thinking about dating?!

Whether it was an illusion or not, Mo Yi seemed to have seen a flash of lightning on the other person's forehead for a brief moment.

Because this is a world with extraordinary powers, Mo Yi couldn't help but make a bold guess: could the other party be Misaka Mikoto from another world?

Fortunately, he hadn't directly mocked or teased the other person, otherwise they might have pulled a coin out of their pocket, and then the background music would have started playing—"Explode! The dazzling light awakens the sincere desire within! At this moment, only my Railgun can Lightning Strike..." Looking at the coin the other person tossed high in the air, and the electric light emanating from their body, the only way Mo Yi could think of to avoid being hit and protect the environment at the school gate from damage was to catch the coin before it fell, using the hand speed he'd had after years of being single!

That's how the opponent unleashed that legendary Railgun!

"Hello--"

Seeing that Mo Yi remained silent, seemingly lost in thought, Raiden Mei became even more certain that he was lying and figuring out how to deceive her!

"What are you daydreaming about? Are you thinking about how to lie?"

"I was just thinking about how to crack the Railgun— "

Mo Yi snapped out of his reverie and said very seriously:

"Excuse me, I'm in a hurry to help someone else. How about we make time for another time?"

Raiden Mei: "..."

Damn it, my patience Raiden Mei's, is limited!

"Is it that poor girl from before? You haven't said her name yet?"

At this moment, Mo Yi inadvertently discovered that the other party had untied the sword sheath from his back and was now slinging it across his waist. Mo Yi, who considered himself to be quite skilled in swordsmanship, naturally knew the difference between the two ways of carrying a sword.

Wearing it on your back is just carrying it on your back, but slinging it across your waist is a preparation for drawing your sword and performing an iaido slash.

Okay, here's the question.

Soju, what are you trying to do in broad daylight?

"Her name is Eriyi— "

Mo Yi, who was still in the development stage of farming money, had no intention of fighting with anyone. Firstly, it was unnecessary, and secondly, it would expose his knowledge of martial arts.

So, I decided to be a civilized person and reason with the other party.

"Eriyi?"

After listening to Mo Yi's words, Raiden Mei began to recall if there was a girl named Eriyi at the Senba Academy.

Why did Eriyi stand me up, Raiden Mei?

Is Eriyi as cute and pretty as Mei?!

While Raiden Mei was searching her memories, Mo Yi knew this was a good opportunity to slip away. He needed to go home and play games; he didn't have time to act out any romantic dramas with her.

"I made plans with Eriyi to go to the haunted house at Disneyland, so I'm heading out now."

Goodbye, classmate.

When it was time to say goodbye, Mo Yi realized that he didn't seem to know the other person's name.

"Okay, goodbye—"

Raiden Mei subconsciously replied, then realized what she had said two seconds later.

Wrong!

Looking around, Mo Yi was nowhere to be seen. Turning around, all that could be seen was Mo Yi's blurry back.

This time, Mo Yi activated one of his signature skills, 'Mo Paopao,' doubling the speed of the ground tremors. Raiden Mei only managed to see Mo Yi's back by turning around in time.
