Today seems much easier than before.

The fact that she stayed home last night to take care of the unconscious Tu Xiaohei didn't seem to cause any disturbance.

It seems that something happened to Pear and her little group today. Even when Yui accidentally bumped into Pear, Pear hurriedly ran away.

All of this is confusing.

However, although Pear was acting strangely this time, it was still much better than Pear leading her little team to bully her.

Although she didn't have any close friends today, just like yesterday, she did chat with some classmates.

Overall, Yui's luck today seems to have swept away yesterday's slump, and she's regained her fighting spirit.

On the contrary, the pears seem a bit dazed today.

When he saw Youyi, he felt extremely guilty and didn't dare to look her in the eye, so he hurriedly ran away.

This is completely different from the pears of the past.

However, this did not attract Yui's attention.

Yui didn't ask Riko what had happened last night.

Time flew by and it was noon.

Yui and the other students ate their lunchboxes together in the classroom.

Of course, it's the kind of bento box you buy outside.

The taste wasn't great, and the nutritional value was even more of a question mark.

But at least we can eat our fill.

In fact, it is quite normal for students to eat lunch in the classroom in Japan.

Besides these, the playground and rooftop are also places where students eat their lunch boxes.

However, most students find it too troublesome and simply eat in the classroom.

The lunch break is also one of the students' leisure times.

This was also the time when gossip spread the fastest.

These bored students always end up chatting about seemingly random gossip.

While it may not be entirely accurate, at least for that brief moment, everyone could enjoy plenty of gossip.

After all, there's that inner yearning for gossip.

It's almost like human nature.

"By the way, have you heard? That urban legend..."

A girl with a few pimples asked a question while eating her already tired bento box.

"Urban legend? Could it be another hoax?"

Soon a girl picked up on her story, though she seemed to have a slight aversion to those urban legends.

"Yeah, last time they said there was an alien who tried to kidnap a child, but it turned out to be just a drunkard who picked up trash and took it home."

Another girl chimed in, but her words were even less impressive.

"Yada, how annoying~"

The two exchanged a glance and then spoke in a coy manner.

"Hehe, this urban legend is definitely not like that~"

The girl with acne stuck out her tongue, then took a bite of her bento box and said.

"Some people on the internet say that every night, aliens kidnap beautiful girls, and the one who stops them is a mysterious white-haired man!"

Before the girl with acne could finish speaking, another girl retorted dismissively, "This urban legend is so low-brow, and the dialogue, no matter how you look at it, sounds like something written during a bout of teenage angst."

Clearly, for them...

Aliens, monsters, Ultraman.

These are just stories passed down by word of mouth. Even though such cases have been observed in reality, they are only found in China, so they don't care at all.

In fact, this is normal.

That's just how human psychology is.

Even Yui couldn't discern the connection between them.

Time slowly passed.

Soon, it was time for school to end in the afternoon.

Everyone went home in twos and threes, and after the extortion by Lizi stopped, Yui's days were unexpectedly pleasant.

Quite a few girls were willing to talk to her, and some girls would invite her over after school.

However, Yui ultimately chose to refuse.

Yui walked back to her home, smiling foolishly.

For someone like Youyi, happiness is never about how much money you have, nor is it about staying young forever.

She's happy if someone is willing to talk to them.

It's silly, but people like that really exist.

However, it's clear that their good luck is coming to an end.

When Yui walked home, she saw the open door.

And those two men with unfriendly expressions.

Her father, and... her mother.

"Wh...wh...what happened?"

Yui lacked confidence, and this feeling of unease became even more pronounced after seeing the fierce expressions on the two people's faces.

"Oh, I didn't realize you hated your sister so much."

Seeing Youyi's guilty expression, the man became even angrier.

His pupils were practically spitting out flames of rage.

"Varied……"

Before Youyi could even say anything, the woman suddenly rushed forward and slapped her across the right cheek.

"You slut, you owe my daughter a hundred thousand dollars! If you hadn't made her go drinking, how could she have been raped!"

After slapping her once, the woman seemed unsatisfied and slapped Yui's left cheek again.

This woman used all her strength.

After the two slaps, Yui felt her face burning.

"No! I didn't!"

Yui covered her face with her hands, and tears slowly dripped down her cheeks because of the pain.

"You're still trying to deny it!"

This time, it wasn't a woman who took action, but an angry man.

Seeing Yui's state, the man seemed to recall something and kicked her in the stomach.

Although the man wasn't a brute who did manual labor, he was still a grown man, and he didn't hold back at all when he kicked her, sending Yui staggering back dozens of steps before she collapsed, clutching her stomach in pain.

Meanwhile, a crowd of onlookers gradually appeared nearby.

Among them, words like "domestic violence," "this girl is so pitiful," and "who should call the police" kept flooding into the man's already uncontrollable mind. Without thinking, the man shouted at the crowd.

"This slut tricked her sister into going drinking, then let some thugs take advantage of her. She even ran away last night and didn't come home. Tell me, can't I beat up this kind of slut?"

The direction of public opinion is always unpredictable.

The moment the man spoke, the crowd, who had initially felt sympathy for Yui, instantly changed their expressions.

They all mocked Yui, saying how pitiful Riko was, and how unfortunate this family was.
