What delayed Shuichi Akai was not saving people, but settling scores with him.
Guangyou didn't tell Mingmei these things, only telling her that it would probably take some more time.
This is a good opportunity for her to prepare and dress up.
After two years apart, he could understand the desire to be in the best possible condition for this reunion.
"Then I'll hang up now."
"Kuangyou, remember to send me a message when you're almost there."
She was probably thinking about getting ready as soon as possible.
After saying this to Kwang-yu, Akemi hung up the phone without giving him a chance to speak.
"Tsk..."
Shaking his head and smiling, Guangyou helped call the fire department and then put his phone away.
Turning his gaze back to the house engulfed in flames, he couldn't help but sigh:
"It really is heaven's help."
He certainly didn't arrange the fire.
Even if no one is in the house, most of the things left inside are worthless trinkets.
He wouldn't deliberately cause a fire just to persecute Shuichi Akai.
There's no need for that.
Recalling his meeting with Shuichi Akai, Kōyū couldn't help but smile.
Except for the fire, everything went as he planned.
Whether it's Shuichi Akai's reaction or what might happen later.
There are slight differences in the details.
After all, Shuichi Akai is a person with the ability to think, and he cannot predict every detail of the meeting process in advance.
Coming to his senses, Guangyou started doing warm-up exercises on the spot.
He might have to fight Shuichi Akai later, so he's warming up now.
Given his current physical condition, he probably can't win.
But at least we can't lose too badly.
If we were to use game stats to describe it, Shuichi Akai's combat power would be 100, and his...
He's probably only in his early fifties.
This figure was obtained even though he believed in his own abilities.
The disparity between the two is too great; even if you lose, it's not shameful.
But even though he lost, he wouldn't surrender before the fight even started.
That's a bit embarrassing.
After warming up and loosening all his joints, Kwangyu let out a long breath.
The fire is getting fiercer and fiercer.
As the fire raged, the wooden structure of the house crackled and popped.
This house is an old house that has been around for quite some time.
The person living here is an elderly person with considerable mobility issues.
Japan is somewhat unique in that not all houses have property management.
Only apartment-type properties charge monthly management and maintenance fees.
Over time, major repairs will be carried out to ensure the safety of the house.
In Japanese, a detached house like this is called "一户建".
Most of these houses are repaired by the owners themselves.
The house is inhabited only by an elderly person with limited mobility, so it is impossible for them to undertake the repair work.
Therefore, this house has not been repaired for a long time.
Most of them are still made of wood.
If it burns any longer, the house will probably collapse.
Looking at the house, Guangyou recalled the things he had arranged in it.
Seeing that Shuichi Akai hadn't come out yet, he casually said in a joking tone:
"Could he be planning to commit suicide for love?"
Of course, this was just his statement; Shuichi Akai is not the kind of person who would commit suicide for love.
Keep in mind, the organization hasn't been destroyed yet.
At that moment, Shuichi Akai rushed out of the fire and returned to the street.
After walking around the fire, his clothes inevitably had several holes torn in them.
However, Shuichi Akai's true form:
—The black knitted hat was still intact.
The smoke from the burning left its mark on his cold, handsome face.
The exposed skin turned bright red after being in a high-temperature environment for a period of time.
Combined with his gloomy expression, he looked quite frightening.
"Have you seen anyone?" Kwangyu...
Just as Guangyou, now reverting to his black-robed identity, finished asking his question, he said:
Judging from your expression, you probably didn't see it, right?
If it were an ordinary person, hearing this would be like...
Even sarcastic remarks would probably make them angry.
Those who are confident in their own strength or who lose control of their emotions may resort to violence.
However, although Shuichi Akai's face was gloomy, he remained calm.
His sickly red cheeks contrasted sharply with his gloomy expression.
It gives the impression of a volcano about to erupt.
He risked his life to rush into the burning building in order to save the people inside.
Although he didn't completely believe what the man in black said, he was still willing to risk everything to save Mingmei.
That's good.
If there were people inside the house, his rescue would be considered saving a life.
What if it's Akemi?
He'll definitely regret it to death if he doesn't go.
Last time, he wasn't able to get to Mingmei's side immediately to protect her.
But this time, he watched helplessly as Akemi was engulfed in flames.
He learned some good news while rushing into the fire.
That is, he did not find any human bodies in the fire.
Not only did they not find a body, they didn't even see a single person.
This also means that Mingmei is not in any danger.
At the same time, this is also bad news.
He had expected to see Akemi, but he didn't.
Perhaps the man in black really knows where Mingmei is, but he just hasn't seen her yet.
