Chapter 46 What Can You Do About It?

"————"

Kushida Kikyou lowered her head.

Her bangs covered her eyes, making it impossible for Fang Li to see what expression she was making.

However, a chilling atmosphere surrounded Kushida Kikyou.

When she lifted her head, her eyes were no longer just cold. They were like black holes that could devour everything, creating an eerie feeling.

"I want you to keep everything you saw and heard to yourself," Kushida Kikyou said in a deep and oppressive voice.

"Otherwise, you'll regret it."

There was no doubt that this was a threat. A very explicit threat.

"As smart as you are, you should know that I'm not just talking."

Kushida Kikyou stared at Fang Li with a poisonous expression, and it was terrifying.

"I have the ability to make it all happen."

This was the weapon Kushida Kikyou could use.

As she said, she had the ability to make it all happen.

Just her popularity alone could spread rumors that would be extremely harmful to Fang Li.

If Kushida Kikyou said, "This person has been trying to do something to me," there would be countless naive people in the school who would come to her aid.

Like Ike Kanji and Yamauchi Haruki.

Then Fang Li would be almost enemy of the whole school.

Even if Fang Li tried to say that it was a lie, nobody would believe him, right?

After all, Fang Li had not made any friends in the last month and was known to be reclusive.

One was a reclusive figure that nobody knew.

The other was a gentle little angel that everyone loved.

Whose words would people believe? It was clear without saying.

Just as Kushida Kikyou wanted to use Fang Li to defeat Horikita Suzune, she could also use others to defeat Fang Li.

So, this weapon was very powerful.

But...

"Do you really think this will make me compromise?" Fang Li laughed as if finding it both funny and ridiculous.

This made Kushida Kikyou's expression even more terrifying.

"Do you think I can't do it?" Kushida Kikyou's tone was now tinged with anger.

But Fang Li still wanted to say it.

"Of course, you can't do it," Fang Li said decisively, "because you haven't figured out the situation."

"I haven't figured out the situation?" Kushida Kikyou was stunned.

In this situation, Fang Li's statement seemed only natural.

"You want to defeat me when you haven't even taken care of Horikita? Do you think I'm easier to deal with than Horikita?" Fang Li asked.

This question left Kushida Kikyou breathless.

It was an extremely direct question.

Fang Li, as always, didn't act according to reason and theory.

But, unfortunately, Fang Li's words were overly persuasive.

If it were before, Kushida Kikyou might have been able to dismiss Fang Li's confidence since she had an advantage over him in this school. But now, with no sign of even being able to deal with Horikita, Kushida Kikyou did not have the confidence to take on Fang Li.

But from a realistic standpoint, Kushida Kikyou was more advantageous than Fang Li in this school. Even if Ayanokouji Kiyotaka were to analyze the situation, he would have believed that the situation would not be favorable if Fang Li went up against Kushida Kikyou.

However, if Fang Li were to act according to reason and theory, he would not be Fang Li.

Fang Li was a type of person who used unconventional means as his weapon.

He was able to judge that the entrance exam was not important to this school based on his intuition alone, and he was able to identify Kushida Kikyou's secret based on just one look. These were things that others could not do.

It's because of this that Fang Li said that Kushida Kikyou still hadn't figured out the situation.

"Anything visible has a way to deal with it, only the things that cannot be seen are the truly deadly ones," Fang Li said indifferently.

"If you want to use the 'weapons' I can see to attack me, then be prepared to be counterattacked by me and be assassinated by the 'weapons' you can't see," Fang Li continued.

These words made Kushida Kikyou feel a bit creepy.

Not to mention, Kushida Kikyou had overlooked something.

"No matter what happens in the future, here and now, I am the one who truly has the absolute advantage," Fang Li looked at Kushida Kikyou with a smirk, as if kindly reminding her.

"If I wanted to do something to you now, what could you do?" Fang Li asked.

This woke Kushida Kikyou up from her delusion.

That's right.

This was another situation that Kushida Kikyou didn't understand.

Now, Fang Li was the real superior one here.

To avoid being caught, Kushida Kikyou had specifically chosen a time and place where no one would appear.

And here, if Fang Li really wanted to do something to her, Kushida Kikyou had no ability to resist.

"Unless you can do what Horikita said and subdue someone who uses violence against you," Fang Li taunted, "Come on, tell me, do you have that kind of ability?"

As Fang Li spoke, he mercilessly tightened his grip on Kushida Kikyou's wrist.

"Ah..." Kushida Kikyou let out a cry of pain.

"It hurts...! Let go...!" Kushida Kikyou struggled under the pain.

Unfortunately, with Kushida Kikyou's strength, she couldn't break free from Fang Li's restraint.

And Kushida Kikyou doesn't have the same experience in martial arts as Horikita Suzune.

"You can see now that you don't have the ability to threaten me, right?"

Fang Li looked at Kushida Kikyou's pained expression and suddenly lost interest, speaking in a bored tone.

"Or you can take your dirty little tricks and use them against someone else."

After speaking, Fang Li let go of Kushida Kikyou's hand and quickly distanced himself from her.

Kushida Kikyou could only cover her wrist while glaring angrily at Fang Li, her face showing mixed emotions.

After a while, Kushida Kikyou seemed to give up and reluctantly spoke up.

"What do you want from me?"

Obviously, Kushida Kikyou was willing to compromise.

In order to keep her secrets hidden, Kushida Kikyou was prepared to make concessions to Fang Li.

But Kushida Kikyou had also misunderstood one thing.

"I'm not that interested in your affairs. If the questions I had about you have been resolved, there's no reason for me to continue to pay attention to you."

Fang Li glanced at Kushida Kikyou and spoke in such a manner.

"Just don't try to use your schemes on me again. I'm too lazy to do anything to you."

Leaving these words behind, Fang Li turned around and left without any hesitation.

Only Kushida Kikyou remained, staring at Fang Li's departing figure and biting her lip hard.

"This is just terrible!"

Kushida Kikyou could only kick the door to the rooftop angrily.

After leaving this place, Kushida Kikyou would surely revert back to being that gentle and kind little angel.

Therefore, let this girl vent her emotions for a while.
