<h4>Chapter 269 Arcade II </h4>


    As those people fumbled, a gap formed in one part of the crowd. From those gap, Hiro saw the image of Shun.


    However before anybody could find out the reason behind themotion, Takeshi quickly pulled out Honda and dragged him away.


    "Who''s that?"


    "Can''t you stay put?"


    "Who pushed me?"


    The crowd of people who were affected, as they stabilised their bnce began to rebuke furiously, trying to find the culprit behind the source ofmotion.


    Unable to find the person who caused themotion, some of them began to point fingers at each other.


    Soon a heated argument started in the crowd. However the argument didn''tst long as something interesting diverted their attention away from the argument.


    By now, Honda had calmed down as well. At first he was startled but after seeing the familiar faces of his teammates, he immediately calmed down.


    Immediately as the situation calmed down, Hiro started to interrogate Honda, "So what''s happening over there? Why are you all gathering around here? Why is Shun surrounded by this crowd?"


    Before Honda could even answer to Hiro''s question, Yutaka interrupted as he raised his own question, "Shun''s over there as well?"


    Since most of them hadn''t seen Shun among the crowd, they were quite shocked to hear that Shun was among the crowd and that too at the center of the crowd.


    Just as Yutaka opened his mouth, Hiro tilted his head towards Yutaka, coldly staring at him, "Let him answer first"


    His deep voice carried a hint of annoyance.


    Although he didn''t voiced his opinion but his gaze right now was screaming, "Wasn''t I asking the same thing? Was it necessary for you to repeat?"


    Facing Hiro''s gaze, Yutaka immediately zipped his mouth as he diverted his gaze away from Hiro.


    Hiro then once again turned towards Honda and asked, "Then will you tell us why?"


    "It all happened a moment ago. While we were trying to make an impression on that cute girl from before, some Korean guys showed up and pushed Ken. Seeing those guys bullying Ken, Shun stepped infront. But we were just too few in numberspared to them. However since there are CCTV cameras installed, those guys also didn''t dare to fight with us in open."


    While hearing Honda''s exnation, Hiro felt a sense of uneasiness rising within him. Honda''s exnation wasn''t sitting right with him. He felt as if something was amiss.


    Thus to satisfy his uneasiness, he interevend Honda''s exnation with a question, "So you''re saying that they came asking for troubles without any reason?"


    Just as Hiro asked this question, Honda''s neck reddened, beads of sweat started appearing atop his forehead and his eyes tried to desperately avoid Hiro''s gazes.


    Hiro who was closely monitoring Honda immediately caught onto his distress. Sure enough he had hit the nail.


    Sure enough he figured out that something wasn''t right with Honda''s exnation.


    While rolling his eyes away from Hiro, Honda shuddered while continuing, "Well... They did find trouble with us first"


    Hint of hesitation could be found from Honda''s words. As if he was trying to mask the truth, Hiro could tell that Honda wasn''t speaking the truth.


    Why would they start a fight over an unknown girl whom they don''t even know?


    Even that part about Ken being pushed, sounded kinda fake. Like there are so many CCTV cameras installed, how could someone be so courageous to tantly push someone infront of that many cameras?


    From earlier Hiro had been suspicious of Honda''s words. Although it''s rude to say, however Ken was kind of a creep.


    Especially his habit of staring was really creepy. He''d stare at any beautiful female without taking his eyes off her.


    And now upon seeing, Honda''s expression filled with anxiousness and trepidation, Hiro finally confirmed his suspicion.


    Thus to squeeze the truth out of Honda, Hiro started to put pressure on Honda, "So you''re telling me that they pushed Ken right under the nose of camera for absolutely no reason?"


    Hiro''s question made Honda even more flustered than before. Even his hands started to tremble at this moment.


    And just as Honda was about to open his mouth, Hiro further added the pressure on him, "Honda, this story sounds extremely made up. I know you''re hiding something. So it''s better if you tell us the truth"


    Suddenly a chill ran down his spine as he heard Hiro''s words. He tried to sneakily take a peek at Hiro.


    But upon meeting eyes with Hiro, he felt like he was striped naked under the snow. As if those piercing gaze was not looking at him but looking at his soul, he felt like he couldn''t hide anything from those eyes.


    Thus he resigned to his fate and answered honestly without hiding anything, "That girl whom we were trying to approach. We thought she was alone. But turns out that she was sister of one of the yer from Korean national u17 team and she wasn''t all alone."


    As if ayer of cloud lifted from his sight and revealed the mystery hidden behind the cloud, Hiro started to understand the situation which had taken ce.


    Probably Ken would have creeped her out. After that the girl called her brothers. And finally they got into this mess.


    "We tried to converse with her, however since she spoke in Korean we couldn''t understand her. We then decided to give up pursuing her. However Ken didn''t. Even after we stopped pestering her, Ken kept on following her. I''m not sure what she spoke. But I can tell that she probably would have told him to stop following him."


    As Honda was saying such, Hiro intervened, "Then why didn''t you guys stop him?"


    "All of us were busy doing something else. Probably most of us didn''t even see him. And I also only found that out on my way to restroom"
