Even though it's almost midnight, the central area of Houston is still bustling with activity.
Because of the characteristics of this city.
Each neighborhood has not been planned, including barbecue restaurants, bars, roadside stalls, and daily necessities.
These stores, which should be classified into different categories, are crowded together in the central area of Houston.
When you first come to this city, you may feel that this layout is very confusing and difficult for outsiders to adapt to.
However.
This densely populated and rapidly developing city is indeed a rare and lively place.
"Where are we going at night?"
However, no matter how lively it is.
For Young Master Harry, he just wants to stay in his hotel room at this point.
Even if you don't sleep.
Come get some beer, some fried chicken, and watch some midnight shows.
No matter how you think about it, this is more interesting than wandering on this unfamiliar street.
However, Zhao Li did not listen to him.
In front of Brother Li, this kid Harry has no right to speak, so he just follows along.
He had previously asked Platycodon to recall the Death Soul Insect.
I was worried that the evil things that suddenly appeared might eat those little bugs.
Now the witch girl is one of our own. If there is a loss, that would be bad. After all, Zhao Li considers himself a gentleman.
But in fact, he was tired of staying in the hotel.
After taking Harry downstairs, in the shadowed corner, he found a wisp of cold current that exuded an unpleasant smell.
The other party seems to have the ability to control Yinhan.
"Tsk!"
"He's cold and doesn't look like a good person at first glance."
Official Zhao slapped his mouth.
Now there are two women in the underworld who are not easy to mess with.
While the queen is full of momentum, she is accompanied by a large area of ice whenever she appears.
but!
When he thought of Pluto Chacha and Esdeath, Li Zhao was not in a good mood.
One is his immediate boss, so he knows how to order him around.
As for the other one, except for Chacha who could communicate with her, he usually looked up at the sky from the corner of his eyes and never talked to Li Zhao at all.
Kikyo girl has a good personality, but unfortunately, she is not completely in the same camp.
Zhao Li, this is too difficult.
and!
Ever since Acha, the king of Hades, lent money to the underworld.
With the recent development of the underworld, it has taken on a different look.
When New York was in chaos at that time, the underworld also successfully took away some souls, and various official affairs in the underworld were officially put on the agenda.
However, with the increase in the number of employees in the underworld.
Instead of relaxing, Li Zhao felt even busier.
Now I can't even stay in New York and have gone all the way to Texas.
"Why!"
Zhao Li held a cigarette in his mouth, looked at the night sky in Houston, and sighed.
It's not easy for a man to work. I really thought he would be happy to travel around the world.
Again, Kikyo's seal and Moonlight Moria's escape from the trap really have nothing to do with him at all.
But, Platycodon grandiflorum doesn’t think so.
When she was in New York, Moonlight Moria was the one who performed the sealing.
Now the seal has been broken, and a very troublesome person seems to have appeared, coming towards her.
Naraku!
Just because of this name.
Just by virtue of that, he has probably come to this new world.
Platycodon can't be ignored.
If she wants to take care of it, then the wayward Pluto Acha will take care of it, and naturally this matter will fall on Zhao Li.
"Look I found you!"
"I won't kill you alive."
He blew out the smoke ring fiercely.
Zhao Li couldn't take out his temper on Master Chacha, so naturally he wanted to find a punching bag now.
What a coincidence!
This evil thing that suddenly appeared is Zhao Li’s target!
As long as you find it, whether you kill it or capture it alive and bring it back to Lord Chacha, it will be a good harvest for Zhao Li.
The night is getting darker!
The midnight clock has passed, but there is still traffic passing by on the streets in the early morning.
“Houston is really lively!”
Harry also had to sigh.
This city has a completely different feeling from the high-rise buildings in New York.
Because there is no planning method, the place looks even more chaotic and confusing.
Official Zhao was smoking a cigarette along the way.
While taking Harry through the dark corners of Houston.
The evil object was not found, but it was not without gain!
Facts have proved that even in a place full of entertainment and entertainment, darkness cannot be avoided.
Or rather.
The more lively the scene is, the darker the darkness hidden behind it becomes.
"So you take me out to have some fun."
"Just to be a street hero?!"
Under the instigation of Officer Zhao, Harry kicked the robber who had just been beaten to the ground by Mr. Zhao.
"Thank you, thank you!"
The silver-haired old woman hugged her small satchel, thanked her nervously, and ran away quickly.
"Well!"
"Young Master, I see you are enjoying it!"
Zhao Li leaned against the corner of the alley and looked at the excited Harry.
This is a night full of wonders in Houston that this young master Harry has never experienced before.
In the dark alley, he defeated the evil villain who was robbing the old woman.
How does it feel to be thanked by an old woman?!
"That's great!"
"I've never felt like this!"
Harry was very excited.
He has never been short of money, but this feeling of being appreciated!
It’s so exciting!
Boom!
One kick!
Young Harry, who has been exercising regularly all year round and even plays rugby and boxing, relies on his strong physique.
This kick directly hit the robber's head!
"Ah!"
It was dark in the alley, and the color of blood was not noticeable.
However, the robber was lying on the ground, and his voice gradually became fainter as Harry kicked him.
"You damn guy!"
"Look at that old lady, you actually have the heart to do it!"
"asshole……"
At this time, Master Harry felt like a hero.
And this bastard who was trampled under his feet is simply a moth that should not exist in human society.
He is a scumbag, he is a scumbag.
Tonight's ending was simply his own fault.
"..."
Zhao Li watched this scene silently!
He held a cigarette in the corner of his mouth and slowly blew out the smoke.
Street heroes subdue criminals?!
Maybe!
This robber who is being beaten, no, or brutally beaten, he really deserves it.
but!
Does Master Harry have to be righteous?!
Officer Zhao felt the hostility from Harry, the eldest son of the Osborne family who always treated others peacefully!
Very heavy, very heavy!
This seems to be hidden under the other side of Harry who is obedient, gentle, kind, and always willing to help others.
Just like that night in New York, when they first met.
What Zhao Li felt, hidden in Harry's heart, was the wildness and arrogance of the Osborn family!
[Harry Osborn's excitement of becoming a "hero" and receiving a small amount of ruby]
[Harry Osborn's "good impression" of you will earn you a small amount of ruby]
[Harry Osborn starts to feel "good" and gets a small amount of ruby]
[Harry Osborne to you...]
Because he was forced out by Zhao Li.
This led to tonight’s “refreshing” street hero experience.
Under Harry's mood swings.
Various reminders about [Red Jade] flashed in front of Officer Zhao!
"Tsk!"
"No wonder those guys make money so quickly."
"If this is how to make money..."
Official Zhao's expression remained unchanged, but no one knew what he was thinking.
The willful Queen Chacha put a lot of pressure on him, urging him to find a way to accumulate [Ruby] as soon as possible every day.
It is impossible for Li Zhao to keep putting off doing it.
If Acha, the king of Hades, was really angry, Zhao Li was worried about what she would do.
Wallon's crazy night in New York?!
No!
Official Zhao knew it very well!
If Ocha goes crazy, it’s no longer a New York problem!
…
On the street near Rice University, walk two blocks ahead and you will find a bar with a flashing light sign.
"Forehead……"
"Did I go too far just now?"
Finally calming down from the excitement just now, I sat on the bar of the bar and looked at the dancing light balls around me and the pretty boys and girls writhing on the dance floor.
Harry was holding a glass of fruity cocktail while thinking about the heroic deeds just now.
Probably, maybe...
He should have been gentler?!
"You have to feel it yourself."
"It doesn't matter what I say."
Official Zhao ordered a glass of fire whiskey.
Compared to wine mixed with fruity flavors, he prefers the burning sensation that goes straight into the throat.
"I, I feel it myself!"
"I've never..."
Harry spoke softly.
He wanted to say that he had never done this before and this was his first time.
Beating others wantonly, even though the other person is a bad person.
Can……
At that time, it felt like the old woman wanted to thank him and then vented her anger!
"not bad?!"
Harry looked confused.
He didn't know if what he did was right, but he felt very good from the bottom of his heart.
and.
The robber was clearly shot by Officer Zhao first, and he just went up to make up for it.
This is no problem!
"I feel like a hero."
As if he had found a reason for himself in his heart, Harry almost blurted it out.
"..."
"Okay, boy!"
"It's not bad that you think so."
Zhao Li raised his head and drank a whole glass of whiskey in one gulp.
Squinting his eyes slightly, feeling the wine flowing down his throat, he didn't say anything more to Harry at this time.
What can I say?!
There are some things that the young master should figure out for himself.
Besides.
If there really is one more "hero" in this world, it would be much better than having more "other things".
"Forehead……"
"Hot Johnny, how do you feel about him?!"
Harry seemed to want to find a topic.
He casually mentioned something about Explosive Johnny.
Because of Mary Jane's influence, he has been in the team recently and learned a lot about things among stunt drivers.
Harry gradually became interested in stunt motorcycles.
In other words, there should be very few boys of his age who would refuse the wild excitement of lightning-fast speed.
I just haven't been exposed to it before.
Now that he has seen Johnny's Death Race show, Harry has gradually become a fan.
"How about what?!"
"Are you talking about the speed show?!"
"It flies over in one swipe, it's really a death-defying thing!"
Official Zhao curled his lips.
That "same kind" is really too immature.
Although we don’t know his specific origin yet, just look at Johnny’s troubled look.
This made the "well-informed" Zhao Li feel like he was watching a good show.
Just wait and see!
Hot Johnny will definitely face a lot of hardships.
after all.
Although the time of contact and understanding between them is very small.
But!
Official Zhao is certain of one thing.
Explosive Johnny is definitely not alone, there is someone above him!
I just don’t know how his immediate boss will fare compared to Pluto Atcha?!
However, Harry's words reminded Zhao Li.
Could it be that the evil thing I sensed before was aimed at Johnny?
"Uh, that's not what I meant!"
"never mind!"
"I mean, when the car show is over, where will we go?!"
Harry was actually thinking about it.
Zhao Li can tell him about supernatural powers and the like.
I have the experience of that night in New York.
Harry knew very well that Li Zhao and the witch Kikyo were both people with special powers.
As for the explosive Johnny's attitude, neither Zhao Li nor Kikyo tried to hide anything.
Harry, who knew the details, had naturally guessed it.
Is there some supernatural secret hidden in this explosive Johnny?
But he really couldn't see it himself.
But.
Seeing that Li Zhao didn't want to talk more about Johnny, he could only talk about what happened next.
"After that, go back to New York!"
"Isn't your kid about to start school too?!"
Official Zhao knew it well.
Thanks to Master Harry's connections.
Including Sawada Tsunayoshi and Yukihira Soma, as well as Peter Parker and Mary Jane, two of Harry's friends.
They formed a group and all transferred to Horizon High School.
Good!
A group of boys who were quite lively at first are now able to be classmates.
Even if half of New York is destroyed, it doesn't stop them from continuing to go to school. This is really fun in Zhao Li's opinion.
"ah!"
"I still have to go to school!"
If not for Zhao Li’s reminder.
Young Master Harry, who has gone crazy playing outside, has forgotten that he still has to go to school.
"Brother Li, what happened after you returned to New York?!"
In fact, this sentence was what Harry mainly wanted to ask.
With a "hero's journey" like tonight, he wants to integrate into the other side of the world with superpowers.
He wanted to ask about Zhao Li's itinerary.
I also want to see if he can participate again, if possible...
What teenager in adolescence doesn't want to think that he has super powers like flying into the sky and escaping from the earth.
However, following Li Zhao is an opportunity.
Harry knew this very well and worked hard to seize this opportunity.
Just like Mary Jane, she won't let go of any chance of big news.
Same goes for Harry!
What's more, he experienced the feeling of a hero tonight.
It’s so cool!
"..."
Official Zhao was speechless.
As the eldest young master of the Osborne family, his thoughts fluctuated and his emotions began to fluctuate.
The screen in front of Officer Zhao began to refresh again.
It can be said that as long as you have this kid by your side, [Ruby] will never break!
"New York!
"There is indeed one more thing."
"I have a funeral to attend."
Harry was stunned when Officer Zhao said something.
"funeral?!"
Zhao Li was drinking wine and looked disapproving.
"He died a bit miserably, but... he is now my colleague!"
