After avoiding the maidens' gazes, Su Rui quickly flew up using his wings, moving out of the maidens' range of observation, and then flew in the direction of Shizuka Hiratsuka's residence.
During his flight, he received a phone call from Shizuka Hiratsuka.
However, because he was flying rapidly, Su Rui's call was somewhat intermittent, and Shizuka Hiratsuka's voice on the other end was a bit muffled:
"Su Rui... can you hear me?... Saw... a girl... bleeding."
Although he couldn't completely determine what Shizuka Hiratsuka had said due to the intermittent communication, it didn't stop Su Rui from worrying about her safety.
Especially after hearing about the bleeding, which in any case meant a dangerous situation, Su Rui quickly accelerated his flight. Before he reached supersonic speed, he said:
"Be careful, I'll be there soon."
Then, Su Rui hung up the phone, as communication would be meaningless due to excessive noise if he exceeded the speed of sound.
Putting away his phone and breaking through the sound barrier cloud, Su Rui streaked across the night sky like a golden thread, flying rapidly towards Shizuka Hiratsuka's residence. Along the way, even children who enjoyed stargazing noticed the trail Su Rui left, pointing to the sky and saying to their families:
"Look, look! There's a shooting star, let's make a wish!"
However, such minor matters were not within Su Rui's observation. He quickly arrived at Shizuka Hiratsuka's residence, but he didn't see any special energy fluctuations nearby. Instead, he observed some bloodstains leading upstairs in the building.
Relying on his excellent memory, Su Rui immediately determined that Shizuka Hiratsuka was in her room, as her residence was lit up at that moment.
So, Su Rui quickly arrived at Shizuka Hiratsuka's window, directly opened the window with his spiritual power, flew in, and landed on the floor.
Then, he saw two startled women in the room: one was Shizuka Hiratsuka, who sighed in relief after seeing him, and the other was a girl with red twin tails, who immediately became alert upon noticing Su Rui.
However, Shizuka Hiratsuka quickly held the girl down and comforted her:
"Don't worry, this is my boyfriend Su Rui. He came because he was worried about my safety."
"Is that so? Forcibly entering a woman's room, and through the window no less, he's truly an impolite fellow."
The girl still hadn't relaxed, but her gaze towards Su Rui softened a bit. After carefully scrutinizing Su Rui from head to toe, she tilted her delicate face and began to introduce herself:
"Nice to meet you for the first time, I am Shirai Kuroko, it's a pleasure to meet you."
"I am Su Rui."
Su Rui could roughly tell that the girl was just habitually unfriendly, but he was still somewhat concerned. He just nodded, then approached the girl, and then asked Shizuka Hiratsuka beside him:
"So, what happened to her? Why is she covered in blood? Did she run into thugs?"
"Of course not, I am from Academy City. I accidentally came here while pursuing a group of monsters born from an experiment."
Shirai Kuroko's words immediately caught the attention of Shizuka Hiratsuka and Su Rui. Shizuka Hiratsuka pondered with a confused expression, pinching her chin:
"Academy City? Is there such a place in Neon?"
"No, there is no such place as Academy City here."
Su Rui, however, immediately recognized Shirai Kuroko's identity. It seemed that this was not just an ordinary everyday world; it appeared that people from other worlds might accidentally wander in.
Upon receiving the response, Shirai Kuroko immediately became anxious: "How is that possible? Haven't you heard of the name Academy City? This is a globally advanced city, decades ahead of the world in technology!"
Su Rui didn't pay attention to her panic. He just took out his phone, casually took Shizuka Hiratsuka's phone as well, and handed them to Shirai Kuroko:
"You can try searching for yourself. It really isn't here. Neither of our phones have been tampered with. You'll know once you see for yourself."
"Alright. I just think it might be because you two as a couple don't pay attention to the news."
Shirai Kuroko stubbornly said, taking both phones from Su Rui's hand and beginning to search.
While the girl was searching, Shizuka Hiratsuka, on the other hand, was happy that the way Su Rui and she addressed each other had become more intimate. She glanced at Shirai Kuroko, who was looking down and searching, then leaned close to Su Rui and wrapped her arm around his.
"Alright, don't worry, it's a small matter, there won't be any problems."
Su Rui glanced at Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was holding his arm, and gently brushed her cheek with his lips. Considering there was an outsider present, he didn't directly kiss Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was so close.
But Shizuka Hiratsuka could no longer contain her excitement. This was a rare display of affection from Su Rui towards her.
Excited, Shizuka Hiratsuka immediately wrapped her arms around Su Rui's shoulders and kissed his lips.
...Considering that the progress between him and Shizuka Hiratsuka had indeed been delayed for a bit too long, Su Rui didn't avoid it. Instead, he cooperated with Shizuka Hiratsuka's kiss, and casually wrapped his arm around her waist.
Meanwhile, Shirai Kuroko had already searched both phones and found no information about Academy City. She immediately became anxious and looked up in disbelief:
"How is that possible? How can there be no information about Academy City here? Maybe it's just a problem with the phones. Can I use a computer?"
Then, Shirai Kuroko saw Su Rui and Shizuka Hiratsuka kissing right in front of her, and the girl immediately showed a deadpan expression:
"Hey, even if you two are a couple, please consider the occasion! I'm still here!"
Shirai Kuroko's words immediately caught Shizuka Hiratsuka's attention. Her cheeks flushed as she ended her kiss with Su Rui, and she shyly averted her gaze.
Su Rui, however, stopped Shizuka Hiratsuka, who wanted to take Shirai Kuroko to see the computer, and instead approached Shirai Kuroko.
"What do you want to do?"
Shirai Kuroko was a bit nervous, her twin tails on her head even seemed to be flailing menacingly because of it.
"Don't move, I'm just helping you with treatment."
Su Rui extended his hand, and a golden light bloomed from it, shining on Shirai Kuroko's body, bringing warmth while healing her wounds.
"Mmm~" The warmth and the sensation of her wounds healing made the red-haired twin-tailed girl instinctively curl up. A moment later, she sat up with a slightly flushed face.
Due to her excitement, and without regard for Su Rui still being there, Shirai Kuroko directly untied the bandages on her body, and then saw that her wounds, which had originally been deep enough to expose bone, had all healed.
The girl immediately let out an incredulous gasp: "How is that possible! It didn't even leave a scar!"
Then, Shirai Kuroko looked at Su Rui with a fervent gaze: "Are you a rare holder of healing abilities?"
