Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 110

Chapter 110: TROUBLE MAGNET

"W-WHAT did you say?"

"I said don’t touch me without my permission," Yuno said bluntly, swatting away the woman’s hand. "If you do this again, I’ll call HR and report you for sexual assault. I’m only letting it slide now because we’re both Guides, and I have a soft spot for our class."

The young woman looked even more shocked now. "Why would you report me for sexual assault when I just touched you?"

"You touched me without consent," Yuno said firmly. "If you don’t know how consent works, I’ll teach you. Consent is—"

"Guide Noh Yuno-ssi, why are you wiping the floor with your behind?"

Aigoo.

Why am I the one getting scolded?

Yuno raised his head and saw Bambi looking down at him with a disapproving look on his pretty face.

Team Leader Bambi-ssi has an angelic face, but he’s so strict and scary.

Anyways, Bambi wasn’t alone.

"Esper Ryu Sungbin-ssi, please help Guide Noh Yuno-ssi get up."

Yuno was surprised when Ryu Sungbin suddenly grabbed him by the arm, and the Esper pulled him up so effortlessly.

His pride was a bit hurt.

Am I that light?

No, that couldn’t be.

Espers are just freaking strong.

"What’s happening here?" Bambi asked, giving Yang Youngjae and the young woman (who stood up at the same time Ryu Sungbin pulled up Yuno) the side-eye. "We don’t allow bullying here."

Yuno gave Bambi a dire look.

But you bullied me on my first day here, Team Leader...

Bambi ignored the complaint in Yuno’s eyes, and then the Team Leader focused on the young woman. "Guide Eun Rina-ssi, do you have business with Guide Noh Yuno-ssi?"

’Eun Rina.’

So, that was the name of the new Guide, huh?

I’ve never heard that name before in the Lab.

But, then again, almost all the survivors from the Lab had changed their names.

"I-I made a mistake, Team Leader Bambi-ssi!" Eun Rina said, bowing her head politely. "I got angry on behalf of my Esper, and I took it out on Guide Noh Yuno-ssi!"

Aigoo.

Eun Rina immediately cried on the spot as if she was scared.

Yuno wasn’t surprised, though.

The Guides from the Lab had an acting class before where they were taught how to either act innocent or seductive.

I’m not saying Eun Rina is an E-Class Guide in disguise, but the possibility isn’t zero.

"I apologize, Bambi-ssi," Yang Youngjae said in an indifferent yet polite tone. "I ranted to Rina-ya recently, and I made a slip of the tongue. Although it was irrational, I blamed Yuno-ssi for Choi Kangmin’s death. So, Rina-ya made a mistake and lashed out at Yuno-ssi."

Bullshit.

Yuno thought that Yang Youngjae was speaking nonsense.

If Esper Yang Youngjae-ssi is really blaming me for Guide Choi Kangmin-ssi’s death, then it only means he already knows about the serial killer’s message that was caught on camera.

Which was strange because only the Top 5 Espers and Guides had seen the video.

Unless the serial killer said something about killing the wrong target to Esper Yang Youngjae-ssi, of course.

But Esper Yang Youngjae-ssi didn’t say anything like that during the investigation.

"Is that so? Then be careful next time," Bambi said. It was hard to read the blank look on the Team Leader’s face, but it was obvious that he was trying to appear neutral. "The only person we should blame for Guide Choi Kangmin-ssi’s death is the serial killer." _{freewēbnoveℓ.com}

Oho?

Yuno was surprised that Bambi didn’t side with Yang Youngjae and Eun Rina.

Why is the Team Leader protecting me?

"And you should apologize to Guide Noh Yuno-ssi."

Aigoo.

Yuno was about to say that he didn’t need an apology, but Eun Rina already bowed towards him while crying.

I don’t need a fake apology, though...

"I’m really sorry, Guide Noh Yuno-ssi!" Eun Rina said between sobs. "Please don’t be mad at Esper Yang Youngjae-ssi! Everything is my fault!"

"Yes, I know," Yuno said bluntly. "You were the one who offended me, so why would I blame Esper Yang Youngjae-ssi for your blunder?"

Ah.

Did I say something wrong again?

Eun Rina raised her head, and there was a shocked look on her face.

Yeah, I should really do something about my big mouth.

***

Apparently, the two were summoned by the chief.

And that was when the Team Leader began scolding me.

Or maybe they’re really busy with work.

Ah, my fellow Guides are done pretending they aren’t listening to the conversation.
