Fighting

The situation was still the same. There were five of the stranger's men ready to fight with Claire. Basically, Claire couldn't fight against that many people. Then what should she do?

"Since it's like this, then I have to do it" Claire thought.

"Attack that girl. She is no match for you. Just a street rat" he said with a booming voice inside this small alley.

His men had surrounded Claire from all sides. She couldn't escape anymore. The only way was to fight back.

"Now where are you going?"

"Hahaha, look at the scared expression on her face" said one of the stranger's men.

Wherever Claire went, she always carried a small, very sharp knife. It was just in case, especially in a situation like this.

The five men prepared to hit Claire from all directions. With all her strength, Claire jumped as high as she could to avoid the opponent's blows.

A split second later she grabbed hold of one of her opponents. Throwing towards the other four men. They could not read Claire's movements. All of them were blown away until their heads hit the wall.

The facial expression that was originally proud, as if in power, now turned into a shocked expression. Couldn't believe her men would lose a single attack.

"What are you guys doing? Get up quickly. Counterattack."

The five of them stood staggering. Almost losing their balance. But they continued to fight back. Sending punches in all directions. Erratically.

Claire easily dodged the punches. Surviving would take a long time. While they were weak, she had to attack immediately.

Exerting all her strength, Claire slammed into the body of the enemy in front of her. Hitting it with great force. The rest of the time, she would tear her opponent apart with her spare knife.

Srat...

She managed to tear the flesh of her opponent's neck this time. They were all unable to stand. A dying state. No need to attack anymore.

Occasionally, look over there. Where is that stranger? He seems to have escaped. Just relying on these weak men won't be enough to fight him.

"That's enough. I have to go home soon. Mom will wait for me for too long" he muttered.

Blue Street, Number 18 - B

After a long journey, Claire finally arrived at her house. It was located on Blue Street. With the number listed as 18 block B.

"I'm home"

Claire sat on the floor of her house. Taking off the footwear she was wearing. Her mother immediately greeted her. And Claire gave her what she bought at the supermarket earlier.

"It took so long, was there a problem?" mom asked.

"Nothing. I met an old friend on the way, Mom. So we chatted for a while," she replied while making up a story.

"I see. Who did you meet?" mom asked again

"Hana, I met her earlier" Claire lied again. Before her mom could ask her any more questions, it was best to go to her room.

Claire changed her clothes. Her clothes were ruined from fighting with the stranger's men. She actually ran away when her men lost badly.

A scratch was exposed on her arm when she took off her jacket. Claire quickly smeared it with medicine. Before her mother found out and asked questions that Claire wouldn't be able to answer.

The cell phone on the table vibrated. It signaled an incoming message. It was Claire's cell phone. Apparently it was a message from the middle-aged man she met this morning at the supermarket.

^^^"Good afternoon. I'm Astra. The person who met you this morning at the supermarket."^^^

^^^"Mr. Astra. I'm Claire."^^^

^^^"You must be wondering where I got your cell phone number"'^^^

^^^"If I may know, where did you get my cell phone number, sir?"'^^^

^^^"You don't need to know that. Don't forget, tomorrow we meet at BoKo restaurant"'^^^

^^^"Yes sir, I won't forget"'^^^

^^^"You're still young. Don't be forgetful, hahaha~^^^

^^^Let's meet tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock"'^^^

^^^"Yes sir"^^^

^^^"Then I'll see you tomorrow. Good afternoon"'^^^

^^^"Good afternoon"^^^

That was more or less the exchange of messages between Mr. Astra and Claire. As far as Claire knew, BoKo restaurant was a five-star restaurant in this city. It was said that the menu prices there were quite expensive. If Mr. Astra took Claire there, he probably came from an upper-class family.
