Chapter 142

An explosion happened outside the lobby, where the students were resting. Lee snapped back, he Itsuka and Reiko, just as everyone else who had passed the first round.

"What's going on?"

"The ground is shaking violently!"

The students around were smart enough to conclude why is this happening in the test. After all, it can't be that it happened due to a real villain attack.

"Seems like the second stage of the test is starting," Itsuka said as she grabbed Lee's shoulder and stood up. "Mm…" Reiko stood up and floated with her hands extended forward. She looking at the outside.

"Let's go and see where it is going to lead." Lee followed the rest of the people as they were kicked out.

Next to where they were resting, some of the buildings of the false city were destroyed.

Next to the destruction marks and the piles, people were lying on the ground, groaning in pain. Holding their legs, arms and heads, and they were crying for help.

"Heroes… oh my God. Thanks. We were saved."

"Help up, please," yelled an old woman, extending her hand forward.

"My son, he was outside."

They were begging for help with their cries reaching the heroes' ears.

This wasn't so logical. It was so obvious. Yet, it was so believable.

"Are you really injured," one of the possible future heroes asked.

Another shook his head. "Not here. Remember, this is a testing centre."

Itsuka's eyes twitched. Yanagi turned to Lee, no emotions in her voice, she said, "They are actors, professional actors."

Lee flinched all of the sudden. "You mean…"

"Yep," nodded Itsuka, "we have to rescue them."

Suddenly, a voice reached their ears.

[Dear Heroes. Apparently, this city is under the attack of a terrorist group. Please, do your best to rescue the civilians and stopping the villains.]

After hearing the voice, everyone understood what happens.

Lee breathed calmly as he saw the people moving around. 'Don't be nervous. Just act like a cheer up person, try to smile.'

Lee thought as he saw his girlfriend's moving.

That's right. Just like Julia had taught him. There is no need to worry. All he has to do is to act like a good man. Right, that shouldn't be hard. Julia had praised him always for his fast learning and how good his acting skills had become.

Only for the fact he couldn't act rudely around her as he can around the other people.

"Hurry UP!" One of the actors, who pretended to be a kid, yelled at the heroes as his crocodile tears vanished. "Do you want to lose points or what?"

The heroes were alerted. Obviously, this test had a pointing system.

One of the heroes went to help a victim and told him to stand up, only to get yelled at by the actor and getting asked what kind of heroes who doesn't ask for the condition of the victims.

Lee looked at the shadow of his girls, going to help the actors.

'It's not that hard, really. We have to stop a fake terrorist attack, and act with actors.'

Lee made his way to the centre of the events, while, obviously, he has to help those who seem that they need it.

"Help me, help me…"

Lee turned. A blonde woman was sitting, crying, and looking at him with wide-opened red eyes.

"Are you fine," asked Lee, remembering what he has to do as he approached.

"How can I be fine? Isn't that obvious!"

Lee had some veins appearing on his forehead. Nonetheless, he could endure this. He forced a smile and asked. "A pretty lady, like you, give me the urge to ask."

"What, this is too s.e.xist!" she yelled again at Lee, only for his smile to vanish.

The Pro Hero association would simulate all of the cases that the heroes have to deal with, starting from real victims, to the people who are slightly injured and can move, and finally, to the drama queens bitches.

Lee stared as the woman stood up, held her finger, and pointed to it. With a soft tone, she said, "Can't you see that my little pinkie nail is broken. How Am I supposed to be fine."

The actress surely would find it funny, seeing how Lee is clenching his jaw. Teasing a guy with such a hot outfit. Mm… seems there would a +18 rated male hero in the future. She's going to take advantage of each second.

That, the broken nail thing.

That's the scenario he had been holding himself with his Mom.

Lee suddenly exploded in her face.

"Move Away! You Are Annoying, Bitch!" Lee screamed from the depth of his heart. It had been a week since he was holding the desire to say this.

The actress opened her eyes widely, stared at Lee's angry face, only to realise how handsome he is. The fact he yelled at her, made her feel something move inside.

"Hai…" Blushing, she said softly, turning and walking away. "But you lose points unless you give me your number."

"Move in this direction, you'll find the rescue team."

As the actress left, Lee breathed slightly.

These guys were too professional in their actions that they played on his nerves.

'Damn it.' although he was calm now, he was in dilemma about what to do. He has just talked to what was supposed to be an actress, and he lost his calmness.

Lee didn't know if he would be in a mood to tolerate more of them.

But,

He can't just give up. He has to get his hero license. But what to do. Lee scratched his chin, looking at the actors lying on the ground. "This's Big Brain time."

Channelling his Hamon to the creativity part in his brain, Lee opened his eyes widely.

"No way."

The idea that just stroke him seemed to be the only way for him to act like a hero.The only way for him not to get angry. Or, the only way for him not to yell at anyone.

"Hurry up," some annoying looking kid extended his hand to Lee as if asking for him to hurry up. The kid looked to be injured.

Lee took a deep breath.

The Hamon, running from his lungs to his blood flow, and finally, they reached his brain.

Lee felt dizzy and light-headed all of the sudden.

A silly smile appeared on his face.

"Kiddo, worry not," Lee said. He took a step forward, let a chuckle. Putting his hands on his h.i.p.s, he smiled. This kid suddenly turned pink. It was funny from Lee's perspective.

Itsuka, who was now in her giant form, taking victims away, stopped suddenly as she looked at Lee.

Everyone could see her flinching.

'Lee… is high!' She blinked twice, seeing the very familiar expression on Lee's face. 'Oh my God!'
