"Why?"
Seeing Fang Zheng suddenly appear, both parties were stunned. The green-haired girl looked at Fang Zheng in surprise, then put down her hand that was stretched into her arms. But at the same time, the gangster in front of them obviously did not intend to give up.
“Hey, who are you, little brother? Do you know it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts…”
"At least you should have some manners when you're chatting someone up on the street in broad daylight."
Fang Zheng held the other's right hand indifferently, and did not let go no matter how the gangster screamed. He just watched the scene with a smile on his face.
These people can be killed.
Unlike the previous time with Hojo Teppei, when Fang Zheng had the intention to kill these people in front of him, he did not feel the warning and danger that seemed to come from the whole world. It seems that this world is indeed weird. People like Hojo Teppei who deserve to die are protected by the will of the world, but these little hooligans who are not guilty of death are killed at will... Hmm, it's really interesting.
"Leave now. I don't want to say it a second time."
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng withdrew his thoughts and then looked coldly at the gangsters in front of him. At this moment, the gangsters had lost their previous arrogance. They were frightened by the murderous intent emanating from Fang Zheng and dared not even move. It felt as if they were surrounded by countless monsters, and those monsters were staring at them covetously. As long as they gave an order, these monsters would pounce on them and ruthlessly tear them into pieces.
"Do you understand?"
"Yes, yes, sorry! We'll leave right away!!"
After Fang Zheng let go of his hand, the gangsters almost turned around and ran away, even abandoning the motorcycle they drove. But it was better this way, after all, if you were too nervous, you would easily get into a traffic accident while driving.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng turned around and looked at the girl behind him.
"Meiyin, why aren't you going to class? What are you doing here?"
That’s right, the girl who was picked up by the gangster was Fang Zheng’s student and one of the protagonists - Sonozaki Mion.
No way!
Fang Zheng certainly knew her true identity, but this true identity was just as he had just said...it was Sonozaki Mion.
But this Sonozaki Mion is not the one from Hinamizawa.
Strictly speaking, the one who was in Hinamizawa's class was Sonozaki Shion, and the girl who was shopping in Okumiya was Sonozaki Mion.
This brings us to a very speechless surprise in the cicada's chirping.
The two children were twins and looked the same since childhood. But according to the Sonozaki family's rules, if two daughters were born, the second daughter would be drowned. Of course, Shion was not drowned in the end, but was sent to the Okumiya Palace, which was basically exiled. As for Mion, she was left in Hinamizawa to be trained and studied as the next head of the family.
The two sisters would occasionally meet secretly. At that time, Shiyin was very envious of Meiyin, and Meiyin would ask them to change their identities so that Shiyin could enjoy her own life. So, the tragedy happened when they exchanged identities.
It was before a banquet. Meiyin, as the elder sister, didn't know how important this banquet was. She thought it was just an ordinary banquet. In addition, Shiyin was very envious at that time and begged her sister to exchange identities and go to the banquet to have fun. Meiyin nodded and agreed at that time. As a result... the tragedy happened.
The banquet was actually a ceremony to confirm the successor of the Sonozaki family, and as the successor of the family head, a demon tattoo was required on the back. Since the two sisters looked exactly the same, no one recognized that the Meiyin in front of them was Shiyin in disguise, so a demon emblem was tattooed on her back, and then the tragedy happened.
As the younger sister, Shion was considered a "magic sound" and stayed in the main family.
But Meiyin, who was originally the elder sister, was driven away as "Shiyin".
This is very embarrassing.
After that, Mion cried several times, but unfortunately the Sonozaki family only looked at the tattoos and did not recognize the person, so in the end she had to accept her identity as "Shion" and live in Okumiya as a "sister".
This is also one of the reasons why Shiyin eventually turned evil. Because of a little prank when she was a child, she lost everything she had. Instead, her sister lived a happy life instead of her, while she could only live alone in Xinggong without a home to return to...
No one would be able to bear this. If it were the protagonist of a novel from Qidian, the whole thing would not be over until a river of blood flowed.
So the Ono-shrine gods are causing trouble, and Hinamizawa syndrome and all that is nonsense. It would be abnormal if one could remain calm and accept such things. Everyone should be indifferent.
"Eh? Ah...I'm sorry."
Perhaps it was at this time that Meiyin - or Shiyin - realized what was going on. She smiled awkwardly, took two steps back, and then waved her hand.
"Um, teacher, I'm sorry, I just have something to do..."
"teacher?"
Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes and looked at her with interest.
"You are not Meiyin...you are her..."
“…”
Hearing this, Shiyin's expression became a little complicated. She hesitated for a moment, then revealed a sly smile.
"Yes, I'm so sorry. My name is Sonozaki Shion, and I'm Meion's younger sister. You must be Mr. Fang Zheng, right? It's our first meeting. Thank you for taking care of my sister."
"I see, you are her sister."
In fact, it should be the elder sister.
"Yes, thank you for your help, Mr. Fang Zheng."
Having said that, Shiyin looked at Fang Zheng and then made an invitation.
"If you don't mind, how about having a cup of tea together? I'm also very interested in my sister's life in Hinamizawa."
See, this is the benefit of having high charm.
"Of course not."
At Meiyin's invitation, Fang Zheng and she came to a nearby cafe. After sitting down, Shiyin immediately looked at Fang Zheng without any hesitation.
"I never thought that Mr. Fang Zheng could tell that my sister and I are not the same person. To be honest, I'm really curious, how did you find out this, Mr. Fang Zheng?"
“Because the aura is different.”
"Aura? You don't mean smell, do you?"
"It's aura, or you can imagine it as each person's personality."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng took a sip of red tea and then looked at the girl in front of him with interest.
"For example, you may seem very restrained in front of some people, but you feel at ease around others. This is your aura. Some people's aura makes people feel nervous, but some people don't. This is innate and cannot be changed. You and Meiyin give people different feelings. Meiyin is more lively, while you are more stable."
“You can actually look at it this way…”
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Shiyin opened her eyes wide in surprise.
"I heard from my elder sister that Mr. Fang Zheng is a psychological counselor at school. It seems that Mr. Fang Zheng has some real skills... Has my elder sister ever come to you to discuss any of her troubles?"
"As a psychologist, I have an obligation to maintain confidentiality."
"What's the matter? I'm your younger sister. If you have any troubles, you can talk to me."
"But everyone has a different view on troubles."
Having said that, Fang Zheng looked at the girl in front of him with a smile.
"Perhaps to you, the troubles that Meiyin has are just small troubles and not worth worrying about at all, but to Meiyin herself, they are huge troubles... The same is true in reverse. Everyone has different troubles, and their views on them are also different."
Having said this, Fang Zheng stood up.
"Well, I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now. By the way, if you are interested, you can also come to the school to consult me. It's free."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng nodded at Shiyin, then turned and left.
Shiyin stared at Fang Zheng who was walking away with an inexplicable expression on her face. After a moment, she let out a long sigh.
"Kasai, you're here."
"Yes, ma'am."
Along with the voice, a tall man in a black suit, wearing sunglasses and looking like a gangster walked out. He bowed respectfully towards Shiyin and then sat down in Fang Zheng's seat.
"What do you think of Mr. Fang Zheng?"
"Excuse me, that is a very dangerous man."
"oh?"
Hearing Kasai's answer, Shion's eyes widened in curiosity.
"This is the first time I've heard you say that someone else is dangerous, Kasai. Could he be a playboy?"
"That's not the reason."
The big man in the black suit shook his head and then spoke in a low voice.
"Just now, when the young lady was entangled by those hooligans, I felt a very terrifying murderous aura emanating from him. Even I couldn't bear that feeling..."
"Huh? But I didn't feel anything?"
"I've heard that some strong men can skillfully control their murderous aura. It seems that gentleman has such a skill."
"How interesting..."
Hearing this, Shiyin's eyes became more curious.
"Why would someone like you, Kasai, who scares you, come to a small place like Hinamizawa?"
"Am I not also working for you, Miss? Everyone has their own past, but I don't think that gentleman will cause any harm to Miss Meiyin."
"Really..."
In response to Kasai's answer, Shion rolled her eyes, and then her eyes lit up.
"Hmm... I suddenly had a good idea."
