Unreasonable Boom
Chapter 3
The next day, Tōun did not reply to the message from Adonis.
The direct result was that he did not even dare to look into Bombardment Scorch's eyes.
The situation this time was simple. Due to the appearance of brainless monsters in the neighboring city, the police suspected that the long-dormant Enemy Alliance had begun to cause trouble again. Therefore, they requested the help of professional heroes to solve the problem together.
Heroes who had fought against the Enemy Alliance in the past were the main invitees. Apart from Dongyun's Andwa Firm, which would send people to participate in the event, Hero Doll, Kill King, Tianzai, and other Heroes' firms would also participate in the collaboration.
After a simple explanation, Bombardment Scorch set off with three members to meet up with the other professional heroes.
In the moving car, Miyazaki was the driver. The only female member, Eight Million Dollar, who created the hero, sat in the passenger seat. In the back seat were Bombardment Scorch, who was resting quietly with his eyes closed, and Yayoi Higashikuma, who was stiff all over.
Eight Million Dollar turned her head and looked at the two silent pools in the back seat. Her female sixth sense made her feel that the atmosphere was very strange.
Eight Million Dollar: "Is Tōgumon nervous?
That's right. After all, this is his first real mission. "
Tōun thought to himself, Of course he is nervous, but the reason is that my Adonis is sitting next to him. It has nothing to do with the mission.
Bombardment Scorch next to him also opened his eyes and looked at Tōun. He seemed to be waiting for Tōun's answer.
Under Bombardment Scorch's gaze, Tōun felt his face heat up. He answered softly, "I'm fine."
Eight Million Dollar, who guessed that Tōun would definitely answer like this, smiled in relief. "Don't be nervous. Bang King is very good. Just treat it as a learning experience.
Isn't that right, Lord Hong? "
Bombardment Scorch moved his gaze away from Tōun's face, leaned back in the car seat, and said to Eight Million Dollar.
"He's not nervous. He's just not in the right state of mind."
Tōun felt depressed. He thought to himself that his direct superior, Bombardment Scorch, was probably still worried about him because he hadn't replied to the message.
However, the subsequent Bombardment Scorch's actions made Tōun overturn his previous assumption.
Bombardment Scorch took out his phone, his slender fingers quickly tapping on the screen.
Soon, Tōun felt his phone vibrate in his pocket.
Tōun took out his phone and saw that [Adonis] had sent him a few documents. He accepted them without hesitation.
Bombardment Scorch explained, "This is the detailed information about the incident. Take a look at it while you're on the move."
Tōun nodded and began to focus on reading documents on his phone.
Tōun's fingers were long and thin, and there were some small scars that were not obvious.
His fingernails were neatly trimmed and had a pink tint to them. He gently swiped across the screen.
The half-peeled lychee pendant on his phone swayed gently with the shaking of the car. The obvious red and white color combination made Bombardment Scorch realize that this was his surroundings.
Bombardment Scorch felt his heart being scratched. He was supposed to say, "Be prepared next time", but he forcefully held it back.
Eight Million Dollar also turned around and sat down obediently, hiding his almost unconcealable smile of understanding.
Tōun quickly browsed through the detailed information compiled by Bombardment Scorch.
A variety of genes were detected in the criminals who caused the unrest in X City. They were obviously modified humans. The police suspected that the technology used was from the Enemy Alliance.
Due to the enhancement of strength, the intelligence of the body showed a certain degree of degradation, so they were called Brainless.
Compared to the Alien Forms that appeared before, the trickier thing was that the Brainless this time was closer to the human form. They also retained some human habits in their behavior. It was difficult to tell the difference between them and ordinary citizens. The police temporarily called them [Humanoid Brainless].
There were several incidents of unrest that broke out without anyone noticing, causing a large number of citizens to be injured and causing quite a bit of panic.
Although the incident was suppressed, and the media also declared that it was the anti-social behavior of people with twisted minds, everyone knew that things were not that simple. Many malicious comments were gradually fermenting on the Internet.
What really gave the police a headache and the reason why so many professional heroes were mobilized together was the latest serious situation — [Humanoid Brainless], who had been successfully arrested and should have been under strict supervision, had escaped from prison.
When Tōun followed Boom and others to the gathering place, most of the heroes had already arrived.
Due to the urgency of the situation, before they had time to greet each other, the heroes had already formed teams of two and went to their respective areas to search and patrol. Once they found suspicious people, they had the right to arrest them immediately.
Tōun and Bombardment Scorch were in a group. Under Dehisa's "good luck" glance, they quickly went to the target area.
The bustling street was no different from the past. The bustling crowd brought with it a happy noise. Tōun and Boom walked slowly side by side.
Although it was a workday, the number of people did not decrease because it was a popular business district. There were good friends who had agreed to go shopping, and there were also many young couples who were dating. The girls acted coquettishly to the boys, and the boys carried all kinds of shopping bags dotingly.
Everything looked very beautiful.
Although they had seen the target's photo, Tōun and Boom were not heroes with detection characteristics. To find suspicious people in the vast sea of people, the only thing they could rely on was keen observation and intuition with experience.
At this time, Tōun looked around in confusion. Bombardment Scorch next to him raised his hand and patted his blindly swaying head, and said with a helpless tone, "Be natural."
Tōun did not quite understand.
He felt that compared to his performance in front of Bombardment Scorch in the past, today was very natural.
Bombardment Scorch looked at the rookie that he had personally brought out and sighed in resignation. He pointed to a beautifully decorated milk tea shop not far away and said, "Do you want to drink milk tea?" After saying that, he did not care about Tōun's reaction and pulled Tōun to the milk tea shop.
When the young lady in the milk tea shop saw the two of them walking over, and one of them was the hero Scorching And Freezing, she stuttered, "Huan … Welcome!
That … You can try our shop's new product, Taro Ball Milk Tea … The second cup is half price! "
"Okay, two cups, thank you." Bombardment Scorch smiled politely.
"… Yes!"
The young lady's hand trembled in response to Bombardment Scorch's faint smile and modest voice, and she dug out more Taro Balls.
"That, excuse me, why is Scorching And Freezing here?
Is there a mission? "
Scorching And Freezing gave a short answer, "No, I'm on vacation."
Two cups of milk tea were quickly made.
The two of them each held a cup, and now they looked a bit like good friends going shopping.
The milk tea was warm, and the thick white paper cup gave off a comfortable temperature. Tōun could not help but hold the milk tea with both hands and chew on the Taro Balls bit by bit.
Drinking the milk tea that Bombardment Scorch bought for him, his body became warm, and his courage seemed to grow. For the first time, he took the initiative to ask Bombardment Scorch a question, "Does Bombardment Senior have any plans?"
Bombardment Scorch looked at Tōun, and his eyes revealed a bit of surprise at Tōun's rare initiative, but his tone was still cold, "No."
Tōun was not good at chatting, so he could only mutter an "En" and forcibly end the conversation.
At lunchtime, the empty milk tea cup in Bombardment Scorch's hand finally finished its role as a decorative prop and went into the trash can. Tōun had been focused on Taro Balls and did not drink much of the milk tea. There was still half a cup left, and after it became cold, it was too sweet, but Tōun could not bear to throw it away.
After all, it was Bombardment Senior who bought the milk tea.
So Tōun took the courage of a bear and forced the milk tea into Bombardment Scorch's left hand, and carefully said under his puzzled gaze, "It's too cold, I want to drink it hot."
Bombardment: …
Then Tōun successfully retrieved the warm milk tea, and rubbed his hands back and forth in satisfaction, praising Bombardment Senior ten thousand times in his heart.
After lunch, the patrol continued.
The two of them strolled quietly, and their eyes wandered back and forth inconspicuously in the crowd. For a while, there was no progress.
Dong Yun, on the other hand, didn't feel bored, but he couldn't help but feel a little distracted, thinking about all sorts of things. Why is it that Senior Hong is so gentle and courteous to everyone else, but when he's with me, he's as if I owe him a million yuan? Even if he's a Prince Charming, he can't be like this …
Ah!
With such a gloomy mood, Tōun looked at the young couples laughing and chatting on the road, and he was really annoyed.
However, although his heart was in turmoil, Tōun was still very serious about his work, and he paid careful attention to almost all the details.
For example, the man in front of him, since the morning, had been standing in front of the large women's clothing store that was full of people because of the discount promotion.
When Dong Yun saw him in the morning, he just thought that he was waiting for his girlfriend who was shopping in the shop. Plus, his appearance was completely different from the [Humanoid Brainless] he saw before, so he didn't pay much attention to him.
But in the afternoon, the man was still in front of the store.
As if thinking of something, Tōun looked at Bombardment Scorch sincerely and asked in an extremely upright tone, "Does Bombardment Senior have a girlfriend?"
Bombardment Scorch also answered honestly, "No."
Tōun did not give up, and continued to ask seriously, "Have you gone shopping with a female friend?"
"Yes, if it's a female friend, I went with Eight Million Dollar, and with my sister."
Bombardment Scorch did not know what Tōun wanted to ask, but he answered the question very cooperatively.
"Can Eight Million Dollar shop for a long time?"
"Because time is limited, it is unlikely that she spent a lot of time shopping."
Bombardment Scorch thought about Eight Million Dollar at the time, "But if there is a lot of time, she is likely to shop for a whole day …"
Tōun couldn't help but feel emotional. It turns out that girls are so good at shopping nowadays.
However, Tōun still felt that something was wrong, so his eyes frequently stared at the man. Obviously, Bombardment Scorch also noticed it.
Following Tōun's gaze, Bombardment Scorch explained, "The store is recently having a anniversary promotion, and the discount is very big.
Is there something wrong? "
Tōun pointed at the people waiting in front of the store.
In fact, not only the man, but many people at the door were bored and seemed to be waiting for someone. Some were playing with their phones, some were bored looking around, and some were waiting for someone while eating snacks in their hands.
At this time, the automatic door of the store opened, and the crisp sound of the bell rang. A few girls came out with bags in their hands and smiles on their faces.
Most of the people waiting at the door did not move, but their eyes would first glance at the door before they went back to what they were originally doing.
Except for the man who had been there since the morning.
His eyes were like a pool of stagnant water. No matter how many people walked by him, there was no fluctuation in his eyes.
Bombardment Scorch instantly understood what Tōun meant.
