[My English] Is it wrong to seek an encounter in an office?

The girl with long gray hair bravely stretched out her hand to stop the target she was staring at.

"I'm sorry," she said as she took out the temporary license from her pocket and showed it to the other party, "may I bother you?"

"Huh?" The woman frowned impatiently.Because the other party wore sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, Kongzi couldn't tell what kind of expression the person in front of him was looking at him, "What did the hero ask me for, but I haven't done anything?"

"I'm sorry," the girl apologized again, "Can you show me your ID?"

"Yes, yes," the other party dragged out his ID card and work permit from his handbag and handed them to Kong Zi, "Look carefully, I am a good citizen!"

Kongzi didn't speak, she carefully checked the other party's ID.

The woman in front of her is an employee of an ordinary scientific research company, and her resume is fairly clean. She doesn't look like someone who has any connection with the enemy alliance.

"Thank you for your cooperation," the girl returned the checked documents to the other party, "I'm really sorry for disturbing your normal life."

"Since you know you're bothering me, don't come..."

The woman complained, took the ID back from Kongzi's hand, and immediately turned around and walked to the side alley.

Sure enough, I made a mistake.

Thinking of this, the girl sighed.

All in all, let's go back to the seniors first.

Kongzi turned his head, and Lvgu was standing in front of a convenience store not far away. The No.1 hero seemed to be making a call while holding up his mobile phone. The girl couldn't see the young man's expression clearly from this distance, but she had an intuition that the call that Green Valley was answering was very important.

She took two steps forward, and suddenly felt a little uneasy again, so she looked back at the direction the woman was walking in again.

The alley was not long, and Kongzi could still hear the sound of high heels hitting the ground when the woman walked away, but when she wanted to reconfirm the woman's back, let alone the figure, even the sound of walking footsteps disappeared.

The alley was empty, only the homeless man lying on the garbage dump not far from the exit showed sporadic vitality.

Kongzi instinctively felt something was wrong.

This alley is a shortcut to the school district, and occasionally students pass by here.

Although it is not as safe as the main road, after all, it is a place where there are often people, and the cleanliness is much higher than other abandoned alleys.There is no pile of sundries in the alley, and the end can be seen at a glance. According to the markings on the map, there is no fork in this not-so-long alley—under such circumstances, it is impossible for the woman to be in such a short period of time. just disappear completely.

Are you hiding?

No, nothing was found wrong with the certificate, and it would be too much to go into hiding under such circumstances.

But if there is no problem, why did that woman hide herself in a panic?

The girl frowned and turned her eyes to the direction of Green Valley again.

The No.1 hero is still holding the phone. He seems to be arguing with someone about an important issue, and he even forgot to take a look at the situation of the younger generation he brought over.

It might be too late to catch up after Senior finishes his phone call.An empty thought.Anyway, I am also a hero reserve, and I have the most basic combat ability. It is possible to track a suspicious person without relying on seniors.

After a brief hesitation, the girl turned around and rushed deep into the alley.

Just to make sure where that person went.

Come back when you find her, it won't take long.

She naturally knew that it would be very unwise to leave Green Valley and act alone.The children who are called hero reserves are still just children after all, and there is still a difference from the experienced real heroes.

But now is not the time to worry about these things.

There must be something secret about that woman.

I don't know where this certainty comes from, all Kongzi can do is trust his intuition.

Just as she would tell Green Valley that she believed the whereabouts of the enemy alliance in the Kanno District, the girl never doubted the accuracy of her intuition.Whenever she wanted to deny her conjecture, another voice sounded in her heart.

——Don't try to doubt, that's the truth.

If my feeling is true, then the woman who suddenly disappeared must have some connection with the enemy alliance.

Even a useless guy like me would wish I could help Senpai with something.

Fingers slid across the dry wall, and the scorching sun at noon cast down through the narrow gaps between the tall buildings, but it didn't warm the small world very well.Kongzi felt as if she was running in the deep sea, the damp and cold air was trying to find her flaws all the time, and penetrated into the bone marrow along the gap between the girl's skin and coat.

The Kanno area in this season... is there really such a cold place?

Doubts flashed through my mind.

Now is not the time to worry about this, first find the woman just now.

Kongzi shook his head to put all distracting thoughts behind him, and the girl's hair was fluttering in the air, like a pennant signaling an undercurrent.

For some reason, what comes to mind in such a situation is not the firm figure of Lugu during the battle, but the back of her father standing at the door of the house telling her "I'm leaving".

It's just something that happened not long ago.

That morning, the air seemed so damp and cold.The gray-haired man dragged his suitcase expressionlessly and told his daughter standing at the door that he was leaving. He was not saying goodbye, but just announcing his decision.

Kongzi really wanted to tell him "I'm going to the office where the No.1 hero works for an off-campus practice", but the words hung in his throat, and he couldn't say anything.

Self is not needed.

She was clearly aware of this fact.

That's why I wanted to do something to prove my worth.

It doesn't matter who, even if it's a beggar on the side of the road or a puppy in a pet store, as long as there is a living being that expresses the emotion of "I need you", Kong Zi feels that he can still live.

Admit it, you're terrified that this field mission is really going nowhere.

The high-pitched sound of the beating heart in the chest became more and more clear.

You are afraid that your mistakes will drag down your seniors, and you are afraid that your seniors will say "ah, that's true, Kongzi's intuition is really untrustworthy", so you chase after him.

You don't want to let go of even the slightest bit of suspiciousness that has no connection.If you don't, you become "worthless".

The noise of the girl running fast echoed in the box.When she didn't notice, the homeless man lying on the garbage pile started to move.The other party seemed to inadvertently touch the garbage bags discarded by the residents, and then put the utensils with an ominous cold light into their cuffs.

"It's really annoying." His voice was not as anxious as the lines, and even a little happy, "An Nian Kongzi...it really is 'that'."

The homeless man stuffed his hands into his tattered sleeves, and unhurriedly chased after the girl in the direction she left.
