Chapitre 34: Chapter 34
A few days have passed after the concert. And it was insane.
The news about the president's corruption and his involvement with a human trafficking organization is known now. And everyone keeps talking about it even at school.
"What about this actor?"
"Then my favorite idol was about to be sold?!"
"It's the dark side of entertainment industry."
Everyone talked about it all the time. Even when I tried talking to someone about the game I'm playing, they suddenly talk about it.
Can I just talk about my game?
Also, this is not just the dark side of entertainment industry. It's the dark side of the world.
The fact that the news keep saying about how this is the dark side of entertainment industry only making those illegal criminal organization becoming more active. They ignored their involvement with entertainment industry momentarily and started going to other industries. That's how it is.
It's the same with my past life. Just that it's more active in this life. I can sense the unease in everyone whom I thought to be involved with the underworld while walking on the street. Or maybe it's excitement.
They are walking normally while being vigilant. They are criminals after all. Even if they are just a lowly member in the organization, they should be more vigilant than ordinary people. So I know that they are from a gang or whatever organization it is.
For ordinary people, even for experienced Heroes, they seem to be acting normal. But their eyes keep darting around checking security cameras. And in this modern day, they also checking anyone who is recording videos or taking selfies and avoid them while walking.
It's just a signal for someone experienced like me saying that they are from the underworld. As for me, I don't have to bother with being that vigilant. Because I learn how to act naturally in everything without being obviously vigilant.
And also, I got myself a hacker/stalker that can easily erase my traces from any security cameras. Though I haven't asked her to do that now.
[Oh, school is interesting. They talked about anything that doesn't involve themselves as if those topics are the most important thing,] G said in my ear.
Ever since that day, I kept one at all times in my ear even at school. A very small one that is difficult to notice by anyone. Though during a test, I have to remove it.
One time, I tried listening to music. Then suddenly, G started singing in my ear. She's not a good singer. That's all I can say.
And today again, I enter the nurse's office. Not only for relaxing with Halberd. But I have something important that I have to do. Making money.
After the concert, Reina visited the backstage and met the girls again. She then heard about Anita's scars and she told her that I could remove scars with healing magic. So Anita pays me to heal her body. Since it's also a request from Reina, I didn't complain by saying that they should hire me just like how Bora did it. I'll let it be.
On one of the beds in the nurse's office, the curtain is closed. Anita and I are inside. Sitting on the bed to heal her scars.
I already informed Halberd about it. And he said to not use the nurse's office however I like. But he's fine with it when I sneaked in some expensive beers to the school.
And when the girl who entered the nurse's office was someone involved in the recent news, he agreed to it even more.
Knowing him, he will agree already when I said that I'm going to use this place to heal someone. He's just being annoying.
And today, Jade also came here. We made sure that they can enter the school without anyone knowing. And she's watching me touching her cousin's body.
…That sounds wrong. But that's the truth. But that's wrong. I should have used a different line to explain it.
"Your scars are disappearing!" Jade said.
"Only a little. It's something that has to be done repeatedly. It hasn't been long when I started the treatment," Anita said.
"Says the girl who cried after the first treatment. She's more excited than you when I first healed her," I said.
"Can't you just do it somewhere else?" Jade asked.
"I can. But doing it at school will not waste much time. I want to train so I can reach the next level before the entrance exam," I said.
Even if I'm confident with my fighting skill in practical exam, I know that it will still be hard to pass the exam. Especially if there are a lot of corrupt rich people bribing the Hero Academy to let their kids pass.
"I was surprised to learn that you're really just a high school student. Kaiser, was it? So Kai was short of Kaiser," Jade said.
"The long name is Your Imperial Majesty. Say it properly," I said.
"As if."
Then the door to the room is opened. Another person entered the room. I don't know who because the curtain is closed.
"Oh, is there a patient today?"
I know that voice. It's another person who used this place as a hideout recently. Ms. Yuzuki. A teacher here whom I healed before.
"Stop coming here to hangout!" I said.
"That goes for you too!"
That's Halberd. He always said that. But if I said that I would take the hidden fridge from this room, he will beg me to stay.
It's easy to install a fridge. Because all fridge and all devices are magic devices. TVs and smartphones as well. And they used Magic Crystal as their source of power. So as long as we provide the Magic Crystal by ourselves, the school will never know about the fridge.
"Oh, that's Kaiser. What are you doing inside?"
I can hear her getting closer. So I stopped her.
"Something perverted. Please don't come in," I said.
As soon as she said that, she checked inside and sees that there are three people sitting on one bed. And two people are the most talked about people today.
Good thing that I was just finishing today's portion of healing. So Anita is already dressed properly.
But still, seeing two famous people on a bed together with her student is not a good idea at all. So I quickly moved from the bed and close her mouth with my hand before she could scream.
"Shh… don't scream," I said.
"Now you're totally a criminal. Don't forget that she's your teacher. What you're doing just makes it worse," Halberd said as he hurriedly closed the door before anyone sees us.
As soon as Ms. Yuzuki calmed down, I removed my hand from her mouth.
"Alright, don't scream. Seems like we can't use this place as a hideout again with more people knowing about it," I said.
"That's why I said to not use this place to hang out!"
Halberd is really angry today. This is fun.
In the end, Ms. Yuzuki asked for autograph from Jade. And Halberd who just remembered it asked Jade for an autograph as well. He's not a fan it seems. Not even half a fan like me. He just wants autograph from someone famous.
After that, school goes on like normal. Other than those two girls had to leave the school ground secretly.
It's a good idea to get Anita to school. I can use the time to heal her as practicing my magic. So now that school is over, I can focus on training my body.
That's what I thought. But when I returned with Reina to where I parked my car, someone is waiting there. He's the guild leader who visited the school before.
I bet he's going to annoy me again. So it's best to ignore him.
"Hey, valet guy. Thanks for keeping my car safe. Here's a tip."
I threw him some coins and entered the car with Reina who is already used to my attitude.
"Wait! I'm not your valet guy! It's me!" he stood in front of the car to stop me from leaving.
"Oh, right! Isn't it Smith? We haven't met in a long time. You've grown up well, huh? How's Uncle? Is his waist okay? Oh, wait. Sorry, but I'm busy. See you next time," I said as I stepped on the accelerator.
…He's a strong warrior. I learned it today. He can stop a car with his strength.
At what level is he? Maybe a level 4 warrior.
"What the fuck are you doing, Smith? You're scaring my sister!"
"I'm not Smith! And I'm sorry that I come to you again but this is urgent! Please help us!"
"Kai, we can at least hear him out."
All of a sudden, Bob appeared. Why does he always do this? Can't he just say call before he comes?
"Ah, it's you! Please, help me," Smith begged.
"See? It's you that Smith wants to talk to. Not me. Let me leave," I said
"I see. But you have to stay at least so we can hear what Smith is saying," Bob said.
"Fine. Five minutes."
I stopped the car and get out of it. And quickly as soon as we move out of the way, Reina took the car and drive away.
…Now I have to walk home.
"Alright, Smith. Let's talk," Bob said.
"Umm… I'm not Smith."
"Thank you for telling us what you want to say. Now we can leave," I said.
"No! That's not what I want to say! Okay, you can call me Smith! Just please help my guild members! They might die!"
Nice. I got someone to change his name. Someone who should have a bit of authority since he's a Guild Leader.
Wait, that's not important.
Reina! My wallet is in the car!
