Chapter 240 Awakening One Day
Chapter 240 Awakening One Day
Somewhere in Tokyo.
In the dimly lit apartment, several people gathered together in a rather furtive manner.
The silence lasted for a long time.
"Are you telling the truth? Guan Gu has actually been possessed by that [monster] all this time..." one of the men suddenly spoke up.
"I don't think those people have any plans. Besides, even if Guan Gu is fine, she hasn't contacted us for more than half a month," said the young man next to him.
This is the gathering place for everyone on the Dawn.
Except for Aki Sakaki, Masumi Sekiya, and Saeko Shinohara who rarely contacts others due to mental disorders, all the members of the Rising Sun group after the incident were present.
Although there are only a few left now.
Led by Katsuhiko Sagara, those present included Tomoko Miura, Koji Mashima who was still a high school student, and Jun Tachibana, a good friend of Masumi Sekiya.
Apart from them, Kaoru Kino said he would arrive later, and another passenger, Mr. Ashihara, died a month ago for unknown reasons.
Ashihara Ryo's father was also a passenger in the "Dawn Incident".
When Ashihara Ryo first met Sakaki Aki, he told her this identity, so everyone on the Rising Sun also knew about it.
Miura Tomoko whispered, "Don't you think it's strange? Why did Mr. Kino insist that we kill Mr. Ashihara's son? Is it because he will turn into... into that monster?"
"Hey! What do you mean?"
Mashima Koji suddenly stood up and said angrily: "Are you saying that Mr. Kino has ulterior motives? No matter what, Mr. Kino will definitely not harm us!"
Among the members of the Ryokan, Koji Mashima, who is only sixteen years old this year, is the one who respects Kaoru Kino the most.
In fact, all the survivors of the Dawn respected Kaoru Kino very much, not only because Kaoru Kino was the oldest among them, but also because of his identity as a doctor and his extensive experience.
After that incident, it was Kino Kaoru who gathered everyone together for warmth.
Miura Tomoko sighed and said, "That's not what I meant. I just think Mr. Ashihara and the others are not bad people. And now that the police have fully announced the existence of people with super powers, it means that there are actually many people like us. Maybe there is no need for us to hide like this."
"Then... who knows what the purpose of their Knight Academy is... anyway, let's wait for Mr. Kino to come back!"
Mashima Koji grunted and sat down again.
Everyone fell into silence again.
Katsuhiko Sagara frowned as if he was thinking about something.
Ju Jun remained in a daze without saying anything. She was still immersed in the fact that her friend was actually the "monster" that appeared on the Tianliang, and she seemed a little dazed.
Before this, Ju Chun had the most stable life among everyone on the Dawn. She was not too afraid of the life threat posed by monsters, and lived her life positively with the attitude of living one day at a time.
But once Masumi Sekiya's identity was exposed, she recalled the many times she had come into contact with him before, and her whole body felt a tingling sensation on her scalp.
It turns out that she has died countless times.
But oddly enough...
Tachibana Jun's thoughts were still somewhat empty and rational.
When everyone was silent and thinking about Miura Tomoko's words, there was a rustling sound suddenly in the apartment.
Tomoko Miura noticed it immediately.
She was stunned for a moment and then looked around. She saw that the furniture in the apartment was shaking slightly, and the water cup on the table was rippling in circles.
"What... Miss Tachibana?!"
Tomoko Miura suddenly looked at Jun Tachibana who was sitting there quietly.
And Ju Jun seemed to come back to his senses with a start, and looked at her dazedly when he heard the sound, and the abnormality in the apartment stopped.
Miura Tomoko looked at her in surprise: "Your superpowers... could it be that you have also awakened?"
Hearing this, Ju Jun looked down at his hands, then raised his head as if he sensed something and tentatively extended his hand towards the water cup on the table.
The other two stared at the water cup in confusion.
After a while, the glass full of drinking water suddenly exploded, startling Koji Mashima opposite him so much that he jumped up from the sofa.
He looked at the cup on the table in disbelief: "Is this...is this the superpower we will all have in the future?"
Although everyone on the Dawn was illuminated by the "power of light" and became a reserve of superpowers, until now, only a few people have successfully awakened their superpowers. At least except for Kaoru Kino who seems to have some abilities, everyone else is still an ordinary person who can't do anything.
Tachibana Jun looked at his hands thoughtfully, then turned to look at Miura Tomoko next to him: "You have also awakened your power."
Tomoko Miura's face looked slightly awkward.
She gradually awakened after visiting Shinohara Saeko, and it was for this reason that she went to find Sakaki Aki.
But even though she came to the party this time, she only told everyone about Masumi Sekiya and the [Knight Academy], and did not mention at all that she had awakened her superpowers.
do not know why……
She felt that this could not be said.
Perhaps it was because she had already begun to feel suspicious and wary of the calm and reliable Mr. Kino.
Mashima Koji asked curiously, "What? So you have also awakened your superpowers? Why didn't you tell us earlier?"
Tomoko Miura seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Katsuhiko Sagara suddenly said, "Aki didn't come this time either. Is it because you all came into contact with that guy called 'Ashihara Ryo'? You are still doubting Mr. Kino, right?"
As soon as the words fell, the already gloomy atmosphere in the room became inexplicably more solemn.
……
……
"Yeah, why on earth would he want to kill me?"
On the rooftop of the apartment building, Ashihara Ryo, who was leaning on the railing, looked at the person next to him with a confused look on his face and asked, "Did he have a conflict with my father on the boat?"
So just kill him to vent your anger?
Kawahara leaned against the railing and said leisurely, "There is no reason. It's just that he has a mental problem and can't bear to see other Agitos born in this world besides him."
But after hearing this, Awihara Ryo was even more confused.
"Why? Then why did he gather the other people on the Dawn? Wouldn't it be better to let them be attacked by angels?" Ashihara Ryo frowned.
"Because his conscience makes him not want to see those people being killed by angels, nor can he bear to see them live in fear for the rest of their lives, so he wants them to band together for warmth and redeem each other." Kawahara smiled again.
Awihara Ryo: “???”
So does he want to kill or save?
Kawahara smiled and didn't intend to explain any further to the confused Awihara Ryo.
When Tomoko Miura came for the appointment, he and Ryoya Ashihara followed her here, but they did not tell Tomoko Miura about this.
If people who have the "power of light" in their bodies come into contact with Agito frequently, their power will be easily awakened.
Although there is no Agito here for the time being.
But there are Gills and Kawahara.
If Kawahara just quietly relaxed the breath in his body a little more, Tachibana Jun would awaken in his turbulent mood, but the talents of the other two people did not seem to be very good.
If Kino Kaoru comes over later and finds that everyone present has awakened superpowers...
Will he become ill and transform into a single fighter against four?
Kawahara was inexplicably looking forward to it.
The other people on the Rising Sun respected and trusted Kino Fumio too much, even Miura Tomoko was the same. If he wanted to quickly disintegrate the small group of the Rising Sun and absorb its people, he had to let them see with their own eyes that Kino Fumio was sick.
Thinking of this, Kawahara's heart suddenly moved. He turned his head to look at the end of the street and saw a speeding motorcycle.
"Here it comes!" His eyes lit up.
Upon hearing this, Awihara Ryo also looked over.
He was a middle-aged man wearing a black suit and sunglasses. He had a calm and heavy aura. At first glance, Awihara Ryo knew he was not a good person!
Of course this may also be his prejudice.
