Chapter 545 Do You Understand?

"Thud, Thud..."

After effortlessly knocking down the three gangsters, Fang Li clapped his hands, lowered his head, and looked towards Natsuki Subaru, who was huddled there with his head buried, his eyes once again resembling dead fish.

Because Natsuki Subaru looked as lifeless as a corpse, lying there motionless.

Of course, Natsuki Subaru wasn't dead.

Otherwise, Fang Li would have been swept into the turbulent flow of time reversal long ago.

At that moment, Fang Li sighed and reached out towards Natsuki Subaru.

However, just at that moment, Natsuki Subaru suddenly moved.

"Now's the time! Behold, my Friendship Burst Fist!"

With this meaningless shout, Natsuki Subaru suddenly jumped up, without even glancing around, and thrust his fist towards Fang Li's face.

"Thud!"

With a crisp sound, a seemingly powerful punch was effortlessly blocked by a palm.

Looking at Natsuki Subaru, who was grimacing and throwing punches at him, Fang Li couldn't help but speak with a hint of sarcasm.

"Is this how you express joy at our reunion?"

Finally, Fang Li's voice made Natsuki Subaru react.

"Eh?" Natsuki Subaru looked at Fang Li's face, first stunned, then hesitated for a moment, and tentatively called out, "Fang Li?"

"Yeah." Fang Li nodded and said, "It's me."

Natsuki Subaru fell silent.

After a while, Natsuki Subaru's face twisted into a grimace again.

"Friendship Burst Fist!"

With a shout, Natsuki Subaru tightly clenched his other hand into a fist and fiercely smashed it towards Fang Li's face.

"Thud!"

Another crisp sound, Fang Li used his other hand's palm to block the incoming fist.

In this situation, Fang Li's mouth twitched slightly.

Meanwhile, Natsuki Subaru's face was now streaming with tears.

"You jerk! Aren't we part of the Transmigrators Alliance, bound by love and friendship? Why did you leave me alone in the Royal Capital? Do you know how much pain I've been through here?!"

"Is that so?" Fang Li narrowed his eyes and asked, "How painful has it been for you?"

"Very painful!" Natsuki Subaru shouted.

"Every day, I'm dragged out onto the streets by self-righteous Knights to help people, and at night, that Knight comes to me saying, 'I don't know why, but I feel lonely at night.' Then it's either a night of endless conversation until dawn, or falling asleep directly, waking up the next day with his head resting on my chest, and then he says with a gentle expression, 'Are you awake? Last night was truly unforgettable.' Do you understand? Do you?!"

As he spoke, Natsuki Subaru began to cry uncontrollably, screaming as if his heart were being torn apart.

"And you, you followed a silver-haired beautiful girl home, and I heard you're being pampered by twin maids in a luxurious mansion that's about to explode!"

"Aah, I know all about it, you must have planted flags everywhere!"

With that, Natsuki Subaru grabbed Fang Li's shoulders and shook him desperately.

"Tell me, where is that mansion? I'm going to pull out all your flags. Don't look at me like that, I was once known as the Flag Pulling Master. My right hand, which didn't awaken just now, must exist for this moment!"

Seeing Natsuki Subaru's eyes starting to bulge, almost gasping for breath, Fang Li was at a loss for words.

Perhaps Natsuki Subaru could indeed be proud of himself.

You see, due to Fang Li's personality, his blunt and merciless words have left many formidable characters speechless.

However, when faced with Natsuki Subaru, Fang Li instead became the one unable to retort.

So, Natsuki Subaru could truly be proud.

With yet another sigh, Fang Li addressed Natsuki Subaru, "If that's the case, then the classic Hero-saving-the-beauty scenario is indeed a rare sight. Aren't you also planting flags right now?"

Just a quick glance would reveal it.

The reason why Natsuki Subaru was being beaten up by a group of gangsters in such a narrow alley was because of the girl who had been coldly watching from the sidelines.

It was certain that this young girl was somehow involved with those gangsters, and Natsuki Subaru, upon seeing this, probably deluded himself into thinking he could be the hero and rushed over to intervene, right?

With Fang Li's reminder, Natsuki Subaru finally realized.

"Oh right, I came to rescue the beauty, according to this classic development, the next step should be the grateful smile from the beautiful girl of Another World, followed by her secretly admiring me and willingly throwing herself into my arms!"

This was the scenario Natsuki Subaru imagined.

Unfortunately, the reality was harsh.

"Rescue the beauty?"

The girl spoke for the first time.

Her voice was filled with strong self-awareness. Underneath this voice, there seemed to be an element materializing.

That element was called confidence.

With confidence, the girl spoke.

"Indeed, this one is very beautiful."

Such a declaration from the girl.

"But, the title of Hero doesn't suit a clown like you. At least, this one has never seen a Hero lying on the ground being beaten."

With just one sentence, Natsuki Subaru let out a strange sound, clutching his chest as if struck by a sharp blade, and collapsed back onto the ground.

Meanwhile, Fang Li seemed to be sizing up the girl, directing his gaze towards her body.

She was a girl who stood out completely from her surroundings.

With vibrant orange hair fastened with what appeared to be expensive hairpins, cascading down her back, shining with a brilliant gloss and radiance.

She wore a pure red dress that resembled fresh blood. Adorning her neck, ears, and fingers were many precious ornaments. Her eyes were a fiery red, resembling phoenix eyes, giving off a sense of stubbornness.

Furthermore, with light pink lips, snow-white skin as smooth as snow, and a voluptuous figure, the girl's beauty was enough to make one wonder if she was the Queen herself.

Such a beautiful and glamorous girl, staying in this dim and dirty alley, how could she not stand out like a sore thumb?

Not to mention, she held a valuable lace fan in her hand, looking every bit like a noble Ojou-sama who had just stepped out of a mansion, exuding an aura of elegance.

If Emilia was the epitome of purity, then the girl before them could be described as extravagance personified.

It was clear that she was someone of noble standing.

Coincidentally, the girl's gaze also fell on Fang Li's body.

Her red eyes were filled with interest.

"You seem different from that clown over there."

With an attitude that seemed either mysterious or arrogantly confident, the girl said to Fang Li.

"This one permits you to introduce yourself."

"So, tell this one."

"Who are you?"
