Honkai Impact: Grandma Pine Sparrow is still chasing me!

Chapter 14 I cannot tolerate even the slightest evil in my eyes!

Is this the place?

"Yes, Miss Kiana. According to Rita's information, those thugs' hideout is in a warehouse not far ahead."

"Speaking of which," Kiana said, scrutinizing the ever-elegant Rita, "how did you know where those thugs were, Miss Rita?"

No matter how you look at it, it's amazing that they were able to find out the exact location of the bad guy in less than half an hour!

"That's not important."

It just means that a hapless thug who was so scared he almost peed his pants was intercepted by Rita and confessed everything before even being interrogated.

When the three arrived at their destination, it was already late at night. Most of the people in this old town were fast asleep at home, as if the night had brought tranquility to the area.

But this was an illusion; the night brought no peace. The blond, scarred man in the floral shirt kept instructing the thugs dressed similarly to describe their situation. Meanwhile, the purple-haired punk was taking notes on the thugs' descriptions of his miserable state, glancing nervously every now and then at the two vials of medicine stored in the wooden box.

This thing has been in his pocket for too long, he wouldn't...

"Oh no, this is bad."

I thought I had spent a lot of money to get some good stuff from North America, but it turned out to be a zombie drug. Not only did I lose money, but I might even lose my life!

"Second brother, the seller you contacted said they would come to our door to collect the items. Are you sure they're not lying to us?"

"No, no, boss, that Gray Snake is a notorious 'Big Snake Head,' he wouldn't..."

As the two were talking, the old iron door of the warehouse was kicked open.

"Stop! Don't move! Be judged for your crimes!"

"Hands up! Or we'll shoot!" Kiana shouted, gun raised. But all she received in response was a mocking laugh.

"Hilarious, you dare to do that with just a toy gun..." The blond scarred man had just turned his head when he saw a bullet flying towards him.

"Bang—" No one was hit after the shot rang out, but all the thugs realized: This was a real gun!

"Whoa!" The blond scarred man quickly hid behind the box, while his other henchmen also looked on high alert.

"Everyone, please do not try to resist." Rita emerged from the shadows, a scythe in her hand, her face still bearing that unchanging smile. "If you don't want to suffer physical pain, just surrender obediently."

--------------

Qiong discovers that because of his small experiment on his power, the two people traveling with him have labeled him as having "unhealthy mental state".

Everyone has vanity, and Qiong is no exception. In Qiong's imagination, after demonstrating his abilities, Kiana, who also wields a baseball bat, should tell him that he's pretty good and even want to learn his cool move, "Stardust Ace." Maybe he can even earn the title of "the first mentor of the future Herrscher of the End"?

However, the reality is that Kiana believes that Sora may have been infected with Honkai energy. Even after Rita gave "false testimony" to clear up the misunderstanding, Kiana not only did not become a fangirl, but she didn't even say a word of praise!

After all, vandalizing public property by smashing trash cans and causing litter to fly everywhere is certainly not something to be praised. Besides...

For the current white-haired ball of fur, the combination of firearms and gunfighting is far more effective and visually appealing than the baseball bat that just looks like it's being swung around randomly, right? The only thing worth praising is the "special effects" of the baseball bat, but no one can imitate that, can they?

Most importantly, he hasn't fully mastered it yet. He can't keep mentally chanting "trash can" every time he takes action, can he?

But all that is for later. Right now, the most important thing is to deal with the trouble caused by these thugs. And coincidentally, these thugs, who aren't very strong, are a good source of practice for me.

Unfortunately, the thugs didn't have the courage to fight to the end. When they saw Kiana wielding firearms and Sora who could send people flying with a single blow, all the thugs smoothly slid to their knees.

"Dude, where's your sense of decency as bad guys? Didn't you say you were going to beat me up? At least put up a token resistance, right?"

Qiong looked helplessly at the thugs in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh that the thugs in Changkong City were all a bunch of cowards who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Where could he vent his anger?

Besides, he had originally hoped for a less intense battle so he could properly assess his strength and maybe even show off in front of the two of them, but now all of that is gone.

However, since the enemy has surrendered, someone as kind as Qiong won't make things too difficult for them. As long as they cooperate well with the upcoming questioning.

"You guys know what's good for you. Now I'll ask you questions, and you'll answer them, understand?"

Faced with Kiana's fierce-looking face, the thugs felt like they had been granted a pardon, nodding vigorously in agreement. Although some seemed unconvinced, they had no choice but to cooperate after seeing Kiana's gun.

"Where did that medicine come from?"

"I bought it from 'Big Snake Head'."

What is a giant snake head?

"It's a nickname for a black market merchant."

"Where is he?"

"do not know."

"Hmm? You might not know this, but there's an old saying in China."

Seeing that Qiong seemed to be raising his baseball bat, the thugs who had not yet been restricted in their movements also began to grab their weapons.

"Those who are discerning in the times are called heroes."

Qiong pointed to the dual pistols Kiana was playing with and her own baseball bat. The blond scarred man quickly stopped her with a look and glared at the purple-haired punk. The purple-haired punk, having been glared at by his boss, had no choice but to speak.

"That guy is elusive, appearing and disappearing like a dragon."

The three were not satisfied with this answer.

"But he said he'd come back in a few days to collect the remaining two vials!"

"There's still some left? Where's the medicine?"

"Forehead……"

"Is it in that cabinet?"

"You can't take it! That stuff is so expensive!"

--------------

"Aaaaaah, it's all gone, all gone..."

"Well, it seems everything's taken care of," Rita said, turning to Kiana and Sora. "Let's go."

In the end, the three of them snatched the remaining two vials of medicine from the thugs and obtained the "Big Snake Head's" contact information. Rita's goal had been perfectly achieved, but Sora's had not.

"Wait a minute, I have another question to ask you!"

"Go ahead and ask..."

The blond scarred man looked at the lifeless purple-haired punk, and learned from the maid that his fourth and eighth brothers had turned into monsters and died. He felt a little sad. How much worse could things be?

"How do you prove the Big Bang theory and the existence of extraterrestrial life?"

"Huh? How am I supposed to prove that?"

The blond-haired man with the scar was somewhat puzzled.

"Besides, there are no aliens in the world at all!"

"Wrong answer, deserves a beating!"

"You just want to hit someone, don't you?!"

Qiong swung his baseball bat and smashed it hard against the blond, scarred man, making him howl in pain. The thugs nearby, however, dared not step forward.

"I'll give you one more chance. How will you prove Goldbach's Conjecture and the existence of non-scientific forces?" Qiong's face turned fierce as she asked the question, but her bat didn't stop swinging.

"I……"

"Refusing to answer? I admire your unwavering courage!"

"Young Master Qiong, you... never mind."

After hitting for a full five minutes, Qiong finally felt comfortable.

They wanted to hurt him, and judging from how they bullied Miyuki Asakura, this probably wasn't the first time they'd done it! These thugs, who are beyond the reach of Far Eastern law, deserve to be beaten! I, Galaxy Baseball Hero, cannot tolerate even the slightest evil!

Hmm, +1 for high moral character.
