Chapter 76, Section 75: Survive! That's right! (First Update)
Down the mountain, leaning against a tree, Ishidou Mirei put down her Energy Burst Gun, staring blankly at the ground, muttering, "I killed someone, I killed someone? I killed someone!"
Not far away, a motorcycle lay overturned on the ground, and a man wearing a helmet lay on his back beside it.
It stopped moving immediately, looking as if it were about to die.
After a long journey, Jiang Yu and Tailuo arrived at the foot of the mountain and took in the entire scene.
More than the strange behavior of Ishidou Mirei, what both of them were concerned about was the overturned motorcycle.
It wasn't the motorcycle that was strange, but rather the lingering dark aura on the person and the dark virtual sparks lying quietly on the ground.
"Was it really Lugiel's doing? Why so quickly?"
Jiang Yu's heart sank. The auditorium had not yet returned to Jiangxing Town, and the plot of Galaxy TV had not yet officially begun.
Is Lugiel's early action intended to eliminate this unstable factor first?
Jiang Yu quickly stepped forward, picked up the Dark Virtual Spark and a Melba Spark doll, and came to Shi Dong Meiling's side.
"Miss Ishidou? Are you alright?"
Shi Dong Meiling slowly raised her head and met Jiang Yu's concerned gaze. Almost instantly, she couldn't hold back her tears and broke down crying on the spot: "Mr. Jiang Yu, I killed someone!"
I'm just a high school student, and I've already killed someone!
I didn't want to kill him; I was only doing it to protect myself!
Mirei Ishidou's tears fell onto the Energy Burst Gun in her hand, as if venting her inner fear, helplessness, and regret.
Under the sunlight, the energy blast gun gleamed.
Jiang Yu slowly reached out and took the Energy Burst Gun from Shi Dong Meiling's hand, saying gently, "Miss Shi Dong, could you tell me what exactly happened?"
Even without Ishido Meiling telling the story, Jiang Yu could guess pretty much what was going on, given Ishido Meiling's personality—she would actually save a stranger and bring him home.
She was forced to fire her gun, which shows how critical and dire the situation had become.
Moreover, flies don't land on eggs without cracks. Everyone has their own darkness in their heart, but it's hard to say how dark the darkness in the heart of someone who can be easily bewitched by Lugiel's power is.
Judging from the scene, it's possible that the motorcyclist intended to ram her directly, which is why Ishidou Mirei fired her gun.
"Mr. Jiang Yu, I—I just—"
Mei-rei Ishidou suppressed her urge to cry and recounted the events in a sobbing voice.
Taro was also listening in Jiang Yu's pocket, his thoughts silent.
Human beings are always complex. Sometimes their radiance is comparable to that of Ultraman from the Land of Light, while at other times the darkness in their hearts is enough to extinguish all light.
"So, he came over on his motorcycle first, and despite your warnings, he remained unmoved, even saying he wanted to run you over?"
Amidst Shi Dong Meiling's sobs, Jiang Yu gleaned the crucial information, which was exactly as he had guessed.
"Yes."
Shi Dong Meiling wiped away her tears, her eyes reddening even more, and nodded vigorously.
Regardless of who is right or wrong, the fact remains that she killed someone.
"Then why is Miss Ishidou blaming herself?"
Jiang Yu straightened up, looking in the direction the motorcyclist was going, his eyes filled with a hint of coldness.
"If only one of the two people can survive, why can't that person be you, Miss Ishidou?"
"what?"
Shi Dong Meiling didn't have time to continue grieving; she just looked up at Jiang Yu in a daze.
"A guy who wants to take someone's life at will, wouldn't he deserve to die?"
Isn't life itself something that needs to be respected?
Jiang Yu didn't mention anything about darkness clouding one's mind; he simply explained it to Shi Dong Meiling from a human perspective.
There's nothing wrong with living!
The ones who are wrong are those who treat the lives of others as part of their own amusement; it is these people who should be deprived of their lives.
If Mirei Ishidou hadn't had the Energy Burst Gun and had been run over and killed, that would have been the worst thing that could have happened.
"is that so?"
Mirei Ishidou looked at her hands with a somewhat bewildered expression, as if something she had never felt before had suddenly appeared in her heart.
"Of course, if it were me, I would probably be even more decisive and efficient."
Jiang Yu gave an affirmative answer.
He now knows exactly what state Mirei Ishidou is in, and he thinks that Onoda's death was largely due to him.
Taking the blame for mistakes that are not yours only adds to your troubles and makes you more vulnerable; it serves no other purpose.
If we don't let Shi Dong Meiling wake up, things will probably go wrong again.
Jiang Yu still remembers that Lugiel, as the childhood friend of the protagonist Hikari Ritsudo, paid a lot of attention to Misaki Isurugi.
Both the biological father and the mother have fallen into darkness, and the only one left in the family who hasn't even appeared yet is still doing well.
"But what should I do now? Go to the police station, explain the situation, and turn myself in?"
Mei-Ling Shi was no longer so sad, but the words she uttered still caught Jiang Yu off guard.
This poor kid, he's just so honest, isn't he?
Don't say it's not worth turning yourself in for this situation. Besides, that scumbag who tried to kill someone on his motorcycle didn't die.
Jiang Yu glanced at the energy burst gun in his hand, and finally decided to tell Shi Dong Meiling the truth.
When a person is possessed by an abnormal force, the energy blast gun's light bullets will prioritize eliminating the abnormal energy that is possessing them.
If we're going to give an example, the fact that Brother Zhun shot Gu Men in the forehead with this, and ended up eliminating a monster, is enough to illustrate the point.
The Nexus Force is surprisingly intelligent when it comes to dealing with people and other things.
The guy who hit him was just numb from the beating; he's probably unconscious now, lying on the ground.
"Not dead? How is that possible?"
Shi Dong Meiling exclaimed softly, which made Jiang Yu's forehead turn black with annoyance.
If she's not dead, you feel something's not right; if she really dies, you're not happy. Are all girls this conflicted?
"He's not dead. Just watch, I'll go wake him up."
Putting the Energy Burst Gun back into his pocket, Jiang Yu saw the Bronze Divine Light Rod reappear in his hand.
If we're talking about saving people, Ultraman Tiga's power is definitely the best.
Fortunately, the guy was wearing a helmet, so there was no need to worry about him getting hurt because he wasn't physically strong.
After being gently awakened from his slumber, the motorcyclist, under Jiang Yu's subsequent iron fists, sincerely admitted his mistake and apologized to Shi Dong Meiling.
After that, they sped away on their battle-damaged motorcycle.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the motorcyclist never wants to encounter bronze artifacts again in his life.
Jiang Yu and Shi Dong Meiling did not stay long and returned to Shi Dong's house together.
Because she wasn't feeling well, Mirei Ishidou and the old priest took a long leave of absence to focus on making sweets at home. The old priest readily agreed, as there wasn't much to do at the shrine anyway.
Life continued peacefully until the return of the light to the auditorium.
