Clearly, this was just an ordinary little bodyguard with a bit of capability, not one of those existences from certain novels in his past life who hid their true strength to exploit their enemies.
A guy like this shouldn't have crossed paths with a young lady from a major financial group like Sugimoto Shoko.
However, Sugimoto Ichiro had always disciplined her strictly, forbidding her from associating with boys.
Adolescent girls naturally had surging hormones, and with only this one boy around, she naturally developed feelings for him.
A similar situation had happened to the eldest daughter of the Samsung Group in his past life.
If Old Man Lee hadn't been so strict, she would have had to be blind to fall for a little bodyguard with no education and no looks.
She had even willingly given up her inheritance rights for him.
"It's just a small gift, nothing too precious. If Shoko doesn't accept it, I think Uncle Sugimoto might be unhappy!"
Hearing this, the girl hesitated for a mont before finally nodding and accepting it.
At this mont, Shiroko seed to hear a crack beside his ear, like glass shattering.
After chatting with her for a mont, Shiroko took the initiative to leave.
For a first eting, it was best to know when to stop, otherwise it would be easy to overplay his hand.
Of course, during the conversation, he didn't forget to leave a [Spatial Mark] on her, just in case.
After he left, Hino Yuri ca to her side and asked softly, "Shoko, do you know that gentleman from just now?"
"Yes! He's a childhood playmate of mine..."
Nodding lightly, Sugimoto Shoko suddenly realized sothing, a teasing smile appearing on her lips. "What, has Yuri taken a liking to him? If you really like him, I can introduce you two!"
Although she said it jokingly, this was her true thought.
She wasn't a naive fool. She knew exactly what her grandfather was trying to do by specially arranging for them to et tonight!
But she only had her Onii-chan in her heart, how could she fall for anyone else?
Since that was the case, she might as well introduce her best friend to him.
The other party's father was her grandfather's capable subordinate. If the two of them could be together, then her current predicant would be resolved.
It could only be said that a young girl was still a young girl. Her foresight was far inferior to an old fox like Sugimoto Ichiro, who had been imrsed in the business world for years.
She didn't even consider that if the other party really got together with Shiroko, would the Sugimoto Group still bear the surna Sugimoto in the future?!
Fortunately, the other party didn't agree.
Otherwise, in a few days, her father would happily receive a dismissal letter.
On the way back to the hotel in the middle of the night, Mitsuko gently stroked the long hair by her ear, her throat moving slightly.
Soon after, she looked at Shiroko with a sly gaze. "It seems that old fox Sugimoto Ichiro wants Yuichi to be his grandson-in-law!"
To this, Shiroko smiled without a word, rely gently stroking her cascading black hair.
What needed to be said had already been said before.
Mitsuko's words now were just to tease him.
"Tch, how boring!"
Seeing that he had no reaction, Mitsuko curled her lips in dissatisfaction, then smoothed out the wrinkles on her long dress and sat beside Shiroko.
With the bright moon hanging high in the sky, Shiroko placed a light kiss on the sleeping beauty in his arms before gently pulling away.
After changing into a night suit, he used the [Bamboo Copter] and leaped down from the twenty-fifth floor.
When the ambulance arrived earlier, he had clearly seen the na of the hospital printed on it. Tonight, he could send that guy on his way.
Over ten minutes later, at Seika Hospital, Shiroko slowly sank into the ground.
After so searching, he finally succeeded in finding Sada Kenji in the intensive care unit.
Looking at this sadistic bastard wearing a ventilator, his brows tightly furrowed and his face contorted, Shiroko suddenly wanted to try out a new thod.
The next mont, he slowly placed his hand over the man's chest.
Accompanied by a flash of blue light, Sada Kenji's body convulsed violently, his expression becoming even more hideous.
Various instrunts beeped loudly, and the electrocardiogram displayed violent fluctuations.
Outside the door, a flurry of panicked footsteps gradually approached.
But this did not make Shiroko stop; instead, he continued to intensify his assault.
In an instant, the blue light in the room flared brilliantly.
A mont later, a slender nurse walked in, wearing a pink uniform and gold-rimd glasses perched on her delicate nose, her long black hair draped over her back.
Seeing the scene before her, she was instantly so terrified that she slumped to the floor.
On the hospital bed, a completely shriveled, hideous corpse was staring straight at her.
However, Shiroko was completely unaware of this. At this mont, he was traveling underground, happily checking his harvest from this trip.
"Na: Shapeshifting Treasure Garnt Type: Armor Grade: Blue Effect: When worn, it can withstand a full-force strike from a Tier 4 powerhouse at most, and can automatically change its appearance according to the user's thoughts. Description: An item worn by ordinary cultivators in a certain world."
Although it was only a Blue grade item, Shiroko was still very satisfied. With this thing, he would never have to worry about what to wear in the future.
A mont later, he took out the Shapeshifting Treasure Garnt to try it out. After changing into a few different styles, Shiroko put it away in satisfaction.
Then, he slowly extended his right hand. Looking at the water sphere gradually forming on it, a smile slowly curled on his lips. "I didn't expect this to actually work. How interesting!"
That's right, what Shiroko had used earlier was the Sea King's first skill—[Water Pulse].
The description stated that it could allow him to manipulate the water elents within a ten-ter radius for his own use. At the ti, Shiroko had thought this skill was rather useless.
But looking at it now, it could simply be called a divine skill.
After all, the water content in the human body accounted for 78%. If he used this on an enemy during combat...
'My goodness, I can't even imagine it! I simply can't imagine it!'
Of course, Shiroko's line of thought was taking things for granted. After all, not all enemies would lie there like Sada Kenji, waiting to be drained.
Besides, with his current ability level, draining ordinary people was one thing, but if he wanted to drain those powerhouses, he might as well wash up and go to sleep early; he could have anything he wanted in his dreams.
And this was a point he only ca to understand later, after putting it into actual practice.
Waving his hand to disperse the water sphere, Shiroko put on the [Bamboo Copter] and headed toward the hotel.
One could imagine that tomorrow, Kanna City would inevitably be swept up in a massive storm.
After all, the death of a Pharmaceutical Review Board director was no small matter.
But what did that have to do with Shiroko? He was just a student who was still attending school!
