The Female Reporter in Peril

Satomi Ishihara feels she had pretty good luck today. (Mirko)

Not only did I manage to snag a ticket to the U.A. High School Sports Festival and get the chance to interview, but I also witnessed the amazing performance of the student I had a crush on at the Sports Festival!

However, to Satomi Ishihara's slight disappointment, he was unable to attend the final awards ceremony due to his injury and unconsciousness. But there was nothing that could be done, considering he had directly withstood the monster's attack.

Thinking of Katsuki Bakugo Katsuki's menacing face, Ishihara couldn't help but shudder. Although he was indeed a student, that fierce look would make anyone see him as an absolute enemy.

If I have the chance to meet Jilan, I will definitely cheer him on!

Although Satomi Ishihara thought this way, unfortunately, after the Sports Festival, her team leader dragged her to a restaurant they frequented to celebrate, and she didn't have time to stay and wait for him.

Having meals together is a long-standing tradition of this group. Whenever they capture any explosive news or obtain any information that can attract attention, the group leader will treat Ishihara and the cameraman to a meal out of his own pocket.

At the dinner table, the team leader was very excited, believing that the fact that his TV station was able to get the first-hand news ahead of other magazines was all thanks to Satomi Ishihara, who had managed to grab the tickets in advance. He not only kept toasting her, but also got completely drunk himself.

Although Ishihara was sipping the wine in small sips, his face still flushed red.

After dinner, the cameraman dumped the team leader in the back seat of a taxi parked by the roadside, and said with a wry smile that he would take him back to the TV station to retouch the footage, hoping to get the finished product that night.

He originally wanted to call a taxi for Ishihara as well, but she refused.

Although Ishihara is a location-based presenter who appears quite glamorous on screen, to be honest, she's just a recent college graduate with limited funds. She finds it hard to accept something as luxurious as a taxi, even if it's paid for with the crew's budget.

She politely declined the photographer's offer, telling him that her home wasn't far and she could walk back. Without much insistence, the photographer got into a taxi and hurriedly drove away with his team leader. 35xs

A cool breeze caressed her face, making her feel more awake, and she walked along the road towards her home. Sometimes, when she was in a good mood, she would suddenly make a face at the shop window reflecting her image and play rock-paper-scissors with the person in the glass.

She thought she was sober, but to passersby along the way, she was just a woman in business attire acting crazy.

"Another one gone mad," people along the way sighed silently as they avoided her.

Ishihara rents an apartment in a less-than-ideal location, but compared to people who have struggled for years in bustling Tokyo yet still live in rented rooms of less than five tsubo (approximately 3.3 square meters), her life is already quite good.

Many people in this city are busy making a living, but there are also many aimless thugs who survive by extortion. Although All Might's arrival has made these thugs somewhat more restrained, impulsive crimes are still quite common.

Ishihara was walking down the road, he sensed the sound of footsteps behind him. The footsteps were remarkably synchronized with his own; when he slowed down, the footsteps slowed down, and when he quickened his pace, the footsteps caught up.

Ishihara had a bad feeling. Although the other person might be traveling the same way, Ishihara wasn't naive enough to hope for such a low-probability event. There weren't many people in this area at night, and she intuitively felt that the other person was coming for her.

We must escape!

Ishihara made this decision in her heart, but on the surface she did not make any special moves, and simply continued walking at her usual pace.

Then, as she rounded a corner, she suddenly darted inside!

She knew she wouldn't be able to run fast if she kept wearing high heels, so without hesitation she threw off the high heels she had bought with half a month's salary and ran barefoot on the ground. Well, she was still wearing black stockings, so it wasn't exactly barefoot.

Ishihara hadn't walked this path many times, but she knew very well that there was a small police station not far ahead, where one or two patrol officers were stationed year-round. As long as she ran there, she would be safe!

However, things were not as simple as Ishihara had imagined. The person behind her realized that he had been exposed, so he stopped trying to hide and charged at her with a shout!

The distance that had been created didn't give Satomi Ishihara much time. The footsteps behind her grew increasingly hurried, and soon they were not far from her. A man's voice came from behind, "Where do you think you're going? Stop right there and let me have some fun!"

Ishihara instinctively turned around and saw a man with exceptionally thick legs and a pointed mouth, completely disproportionate to his body, grinning maliciously as he took steady steps, covering the distance of two steps in one, and was about to catch up with her!

Ishihara one of the few people in the world without Quirk, but she took a Quirk research course in college and has some understanding of various Quirk who make their bodies into bizarre shapes.

When she saw this kind of man during her usual interviews, she would at most remark on his difference, but in this dark alley, she felt that this person was so repulsive!

Suddenly, the man stopped. Ishihara had just breathed a sigh of relief, but before she could run a few steps, she heard a loud bang. The beast-legged man launched himself forward from his spot, leaping over Satomi Ishihara in a parabolic arc and crashing down in front of her!

Satomi Ishihara deeply felt this reality and her own powerlessness. She shouldn't have walked home at this time; even if it was more expensive, she should have taken a taxi!

"I have money, I'll give you money." Knowing he had nowhere to run, Ishihara calmly threw his handbag on the ground. "I just hope you won't hurt me."

As a location presenter for a television station, Ishihara once gave a presentation on how to deal with a robbery, which she still remembers vividly.

The first thing to do is run, run to the nearest distress point and get shelter from Pro Hero or the police.

Secondly, if you can't escape, you shouldn't provoke the robber. Just obediently do as he says, secretly call for help, turn on your phone's location services, and wait for rescue.

Satomi Ishihara has a signal transmitter in her handbag. She has already turned on the location tracking. Once the signal transmitter is turned on, the nearby hero agencies and police will receive the distress signal and immediately send people over.

The man with the pointed snout was somewhat surprised that Ishihara would agree so readily, but he still lewdly grinned and said, "Just robbing me of my money isn't enough, I also want to rob me of my virtue!"

Ishihara calmly continued, "Are you sure? I'm not shouting now because I think you still have a chance to repent. If you take the money and leave, I won't call the police. But if you dare to do anything else..."

"Don't forget, today is the U.A. High School Sports Festival. Pro Hero from all over the country are here. If they catch you, you should know what the consequences will be!"

The man with the pointed beak's expression changed. Thinking of the miserable consequences of being captured by those heroes, he agreed with Satomi Ishihara's point of view and said sullenly, "You're right. You got lucky this time."

He didn't touch Satomi Ishihara, he lowered his head and started rummaging through Ishihara handbag. He noticed that the contents of the handbag were a bit messy, so he impatiently turned the bag inside out and emptied its contents.

Foundation, concealer, eyebrow pencil, and several other cosmetics, along with a phone power bank, fell out, making a series of thuds on the floor. Ishihara felt a pang of heartache, but she knew she was already incredibly lucky to be unharmed and shouldn't ask for more.

The man with the pointed lip took Ishihara's wallet and valuables, including his cell phone, and stuffed them into his pocket. Suddenly, he saw a black object on the ground. It was an oval, flat object, about the size of a portable Swiss Army knife, and looked like an egg.

Ishihara Kokoro suddenly tensed up. It was a signal transmitter she had customized from the official store. Once turned on, it would send a signal to the nearby Pro Hero, who would then rush to the scene. The shape of each signal transmitter could be customized by the customer, and the signal could be set for any SpongeBob SquarePants or All Might figurine.

This is a very useful item, but the price is unaffordable for most people.

Satomi Ishihara received this signal transmitter as a gift from her fans, who were worried that she might encounter some mishap while constantly filming on location, so they pooled their money to buy it for her. This transmitter does not have any flashing signal lights when activated, which can prevent enemies from noticing it.

The man with the pointed lip smoothly twirled the signal transmitter between his fingers, then suddenly grinned lewdly, "I didn't expect you, who seemed so respectable, to know how to use something like this. Where's the remote?"

"What are you talking about?" Ishihara didn't quite understand what he meant, but she was somewhat relieved, as it seemed the other party hadn't noticed that she had sent out a distress signal.

"No remote control, so it's touch-sensitive?" The man with the pointed beak pressed the circular transmitter, but instead of the Vibrate he wanted, a loud, clear voice came from it.

"Vibration Hero, Shin Shindo has accepted your commission. Citizens, please rest assured and await rescue. I will eradicate all evil!"

The man with the pointed beak's expression changed drastically; this wasn't the kind of Vibrate wanted!

He looked at Satomi Ishihara with a grim face. "No wonder you were so obedient. So you called the police a long time ago. Mom was right, the prettier the woman, the easier it is for her to deceive people!"

Satomi Ishihara's face also turned ugly. She cursed the Pro Hero in her heart for ruining things. Just when she was about to escape danger, he put her in a dangerous situation!

Generally, after receiving an alert, Pro Hero will not reveal any information, since no one knows the current situation of the enemy. They are used to silently rushing to the scene to provide assistance. Because of this habit, it is common for several heroes to arrive at the same time to face the same enemy.

However, some new heroes, in order to gain exposure, will broadcast their own information on the hero hotline, claiming it's to intimidate the enemy. But in reality, this behavior of broadcasting their own information could very likely put the citizens who call the police in danger.

"That's not how it works..."

Just as Satomi Ishihara was about to explain, she saw the sharp-beaked man charging towards her in Rage!

"I've changed my mind, I want you dead!"
