The Strongest Loner Redo His Youth With Unmatched Prowess!! ~In the Second Round of School Life, He Made Beautiful Girl Friends!~ - Chapter 42

The supplementary lesson was interrupted midway. 

It seemed an incident had occurred behind the school, and the police had come. 

When Yuito opened his smartphone, he found a large number of messages from Hina. 

He hadn’t noticed them because he had his phone on silent during the supplementary lesson. 

After reading the messages, Yuito dashed out into the hallway with just his smartphone. 

As he stepped into the hallway, he passed by Satou. 

He seemed flustered, as he had also heard about the incident.

“Hey, Yuito. Did you hear――” 

“I’m sorry!” 

“What the hell are you doing!!!?” 

Yuito jumped out of the window. 

Landing without a hitch, he ran to the back of the school. 

There were many police officers on the back road. 

Among them, he saw a familiar face. 

“Yuito!! What were you doing!?” 

Hina rushed over in a panic. 

“I’m sorry. I was in a supplementary class…” 

“Seriously, this is really bad!!”

He heard the detailed story from Hina. 

Hakari and Kirika were kidnapped. 

It seems that some shady people and male students from Reimei Academy were trying to abduct them. 

However, they were saved by a red-haired beauty and taken somewhere. 

“…For now, I think both of them are safe.” 

“How can you be so sure?”

“I met that red-haired person yesterday… she said she would come to see me today too.” 

Yuito recalled what happened just yesterday. 

The red-haired beauty――Reiya, had said she would come to see him today as well. 

She must have encountered that incident when she came to see Yuito. 

“And I don’t think she was a bad person.”

Reiya was acting with genuine concern for the kid. 

He can’t believe she is a villain. She must have taken Hakari and Kirika purely to help them. 

“Besides, her skills were exceptional. I think it’s unlikely she got caught by some thugs.” 

According to Yuito’s assessment, Reiya’s current abilities are on par with a B-rank explorer.

If that powerful person fled with all her might, it wouldn’t be easy to catch her. 

Even if she was caught, it would have turned into a major incident due to Reiya’s resistance. 

However, there’s been no news of such a thing. 

“I see. For now, it’s highly likely she escaped to a safe zone…” 

Hina sighed as if to release her anxiety. 

Then, she pinched his cheek while glaring at Yuito.

“And you were hitting on another girl again, huh?” 

“N-no, no, it’s a misunderstanding… It’s not like we got particularly close or anything, probably?” 

“Why are you asking like it’s a question…” 

“I just don’t really understand her sense of distance.” 

Reiya had an unusually close distance with Yuito. 

But then, at the parting, it felt like she was about to hit him. 

They were from completely different worlds, and he couldn’t quite grasp her feelings.

“Then, maybe you are liked.”

“Why?” 

“Because you’re too oblivious to people’s feelings.” 

When she said that, he couldn’t argue back. 

In reality, Yuito was a socially awkward guy with a poor understanding of people’s emotions. 

Even Hakari and Kirika had become friends with him without him realizing it. 

“B-By the way! What kind of guy was involved in the kidnapping?” 

Yuito raised his voice to change the subject.

“W-why are you asking about that? Are you planning to look for the two of them yourself?” 

“That’s the plan, but…?” 

“No, no, I know you’re strong, but wouldn’t it be better to leave it to the police?” 

“The police, huh…” 

Yuito looked around at the police. 

They were moving around, interviewing neighbors, and examining tire tracks.

From most of them――there is a lack of motivation. 

They seem somewhat lethargic. 

Some, particularly bad ones, were smoking in the shadows. 

“…Hina-san, did you come to the Exploration City from high school?” 

“Yes, but what about it?” 

Yuito hesitated to speak. 

“Hmm. The police in this city――”
