Chapter 19

Looking at his girlfriend's determined expression, Bai Jingyu could only sigh. "No problem, I'll help you deal with them. You handle this matter." Saying these surprising words, Bai Jingyu handed the armband that belonged to him to Saito Riko.

To this, Misaki Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko were both very unwilling. "Brother, how can you do this? Saito-san alone..."

"Alright, it's decided. I'll explain later. Shizuri, Kuroko, hack the dormitory's surveillance system and find the culprit."

"Yes!"

Without the process of obtaining permission as in the original story, they quickly connected to the dormitory's surveillance system. Based on the general activity range of the attacked Tokiwadai students and the fact that outsiders would be very noticeable and that ESP abilities couldn't be used continuously, they quickly narrowed down the culprit's probable location. Just as Saito Riko ran out, Bai Jingyu stood in front of Misaki Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko.

"Move, Bai." Sparks appeared on Misaki Mikoto's head, clearly annoyed by Bai Jingyu's actions.

"Riko feels very guilty about today's incident," Bai Jingyu unexpectedly began to explain. "If it weren't for her carelessness, Shizuri wouldn't have been attacked for no reason. She feels this way now, so this matter can only be resolved by her. With Kuroko's spatial movement, you can easily get out, but that means you will be against me! Think carefully."

In the end, the two did not chase after her but trusted that Saito Riko could successfully complete the task.

Bai Jingyu and Saito Riko's bond left Shirai Kuroko with a lingering discomfort, an indescribable feeling of chest tightness.

On the other side, Saito Riko had already arrived at the center of the area where the culprit might be. Standing on the street, Saito Riko thought a lot about Shizuri's attack, Bai Jingyu's care, and Misaki Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko's understanding. "I will definitely find you, Bangs Girl!"

Saito Riko's ability is air manipulation, which, in simpler terms, is wind. Similar to Bai Jingyu's true ability, as long as it's within Saito Riko's range, she can perceive and manipulate all air currents. Of course, her range isn't as wide as Bai Jingyu's, and in a certain sense, Bai Jingyu's ESP ability is no longer within the Level 5 category.

Although Saito Riko's range isn't as wide as Bai Jingyu's, due to the nature of wind, it still covers half of the dormitory. Unfortunately, Saito Riko's control over her ability is poor, both in precision and power, only reaching Level 4 or even Level 3.

However, at this moment, to catch the culprit who attacked her friend, Saito Riko rarely calmed down, carefully sensing the flow of the air currents, starting from a few meters around her, gradually expanding until the entire area where the culprit might be was within her perception.

Next, she just needed to find the culprit... At this point, Saito Riko realized that her air manipulation ability doesn't have the function to distinguish people...

With no choice, Saito Riko had to seek help. The few people in the Judgment Committee Branch 177 couldn't help but laugh. In the end, it was Shizuri who first found the culprit's exact location.

It was already close to evening, and some students who had been shopping together began to split up and head home. A Tokiwadai girl had just said goodbye to her friend and took a shortcut to get home faster. This shortcut was currently empty, looking somewhat desolate, and there was a girl lying in wait in a nearby alley. This girl was the culprit who attacked the Tokiwadai student, holding a stun gun.

At this moment, a voice came from behind her, "Finally found you." Turning around, she saw someone in a different school uniform. If she wasn't mistaken, it was the companion of the person from this afternoon. "I will make you pay for what you did to Shizuri's cute eyebrows."

Run! Although she didn't know why she was found, Chongfu Shengfan's first reaction was to flee.

Saito Riko was also surprised to see the culprit disappear. "Really disappeared?" But now wasn't the time to be surprised. Saito Riko, who had locked onto the culprit with her ability from the beginning, could clearly see the human-shaped air void running away. After enhancing herself with upward air currents, Saito Riko followed. A chase began.

Unfortunately, this was an unfair battle. Not to mention the support from Shizuri and others, Saito Riko's ability completely overpowered Chongfu Shengfan.

In the end, when Chongfu Shengfan ran to a park, she was out of energy, and her ESP ability had been deactivated. She had to stop, looking at Saito Riko, who was still following her. Saito Riko lightly jumped and landed in front of Chongfu Shengfan. Although Saito Riko still couldn't control her ability well, she had improved a lot.

"The game of hide and seek is over."

Seeing Saito Riko, Chongfu Shengfan felt a surge of anger.

"Why is such a powerful ability user a friend of a Tokiwadai student?"

"Damn Tokiwadai!" Chongfu Shengfan, venting her anger on Tokiwadai, rushed at Saito Riko with her stun gun. But as she reached Saito Riko, a strong wind howled, and a whirlwind formed around Saito Riko, lifting Chongfu Shengfan more than a meter into the air and causing her to fall and pass out.

Saito Riko, a bit afraid that Chongfu Shengfan might be seriously injured, placed her on a park bench and called Shizuri to notify the security personnel. Then, she took out a marker from her pocket to avenge Shizuri!

When Saito Riko swept away Chongfu Shengfan's long bangs, she discovered that Chongfu Shengfan's eyebrows were naturally thick, which left her stunned.

Just then, Chongfu Shengfan also woke up. Seeing her thick eyebrows exposed, she suddenly became hysterical. She revealed everything, including her reason for retaliating against the Tokiwadai student who had stolen her lover.

"What, what's the matter, come and laugh at me!" At this moment, Chongfu Shengfan seemed to have given up everything.

Saito Riko smiled after hearing this. "It's not strange, it's a kind of charm. Those who truly like you will love everything about you, and the one who abandoned you is just that. What you should do is not seek revenge but find your own new life." Having been with Bai Jingyu for only six months, Saito Riko had a deep understanding of this. "Those who care for you in the little things of daily life are your true destination."

Seeing the person in front of her radiating happiness, Chongfu Shengfan was attracted and asked, "Have you found it? Your destination?"

Saito Riko smiled and replied, "Of course, I will always be by his side forever."

At this moment, neither Chongfu Shengfan nor the people in Branch 177 could say a word. That kind of emotion was beyond any doubt!

Shirai Kuroko looked at her cousin with a complex expression. Ps: Out tomorrow, updating early.
