Blood Of Platinum
Chapters 105. Rescue bag. 7
“There are people who have walked in front of us!”
“Eh?”
Hearing that, Ryou who was still trying to catch his breath turned pale and shocked. Not only Ryou but the two children also could not hide his fear.
“Ahead there.there are others who have been waiting for us” Ryou said with his shocked facial expression.
“Ta–but Kaito-niisan..” Stelani tried to bravely raise her head and ask Kaito.
“I'm serious. Ryou, take a look around this place” Kaito who slightly lowered his head asked Ryou to look at the streets in the area
Ryou follows Kaito's direction and his two eyes cannot hide his surprised expression. Around the road, he did not see the head belonging to the gatekeeper and there were faint footprints formed.
“Jejak...kaki.” Ryou surprised and said quietly.
“We can't be rash now. There is a possibility that up front there has been waiting for a black market manager who realizes these two children have escaped”
“Eh? They realize we escaped?!” Fabil was surprised
Stelani began to think and blame herself.
‘It turns out to be true, everything is a trap! There was no way the two of us could escape from that place easily and without any guard at all! It's all our fault!’
Stelani looks so moody, so does Fabil. In contrast to Stelani who blames himself inwardly, Fabil clearly says it with a disappointed and sad face.
“This is all because Stelani and I ran away from that place! It's all our fault! We already knew that it might be a trap, but we didn't care about that fact and just thought about saving Kino-niichan!”
Hearing that, Ryou spoke in a stern tone and it was all addressed to those two brave children.
“You are my brother's savior.”
The two children raised their heads and looked towards Ryou. Ryou continued his sentence.
“...Thanks to you guys, Kaito and I can get Kino out of that place and we are already one step closer to the exit. Never regret the great things you have done! Without you guys, Kino might be stuck in that cursed place a lot longer
“Ryou...nii-san..”.
“Trap or not, the fact that we will still meet with the enemy will not change. Now, all we can do is go ahead and face them”
Ryou's words make the two children better and begins to think that what they are doing is not wrong. Only, Kaito still looks anxious.
“Ryou, we will probably involve these children in the fight. Besides, I remember the gatekeeper locked the gate. There's no way we can open that door without lock”
“Lock?” Fabil with all his courage approached the corpse and tried to reach into the pocket of his pants to find the key
“Me and you are too focused to get to where the black market manager was and forget about such an important thing. It could have been the key that was taken by the person who preceded us” continued Kaito
Kaito's words were accurate. Fabil said that he did not find the key in the pocket of the gatekeeper's undead pants.
“Sial!” aspersons Ryou
In this way, they again faced serious problems. And although it is not yet known by the four, in fact they have been besieged from two opposite directions.
“We have to how now? Kino can die if we stay in this place continuously!” Ryou spoke again in an annoyed tone
Kaito was silent and thought for a moment.
‘Can I do something to keep these two kids away from the fight and bring Kino to safety? Should I bet on luck? Nah! It will only take time! Kino's safety is at stake now, I have no other choice! I will bear the risk if my calculation is wrong’
Kaito spoke with a sharp eye and a serious expression. He has decided to work on something and take responsibility for all his decisions.
“We have no other choice. I think we should keep running towards the gate and work on something to get out of this place”
“Then don't waste time and run!”
Ryou pushed the wagon back and ran. Fabil followed behind Ryou. Kaito whispered softly to Stelani.
“Close handle yes, Stelani”
“I understand, Kaito-niisan. Beware”
They begin to leave Will's body on the ground and move away from the location. A few minutes later, when the shadows of the four of them were no longer visible, from a distance there were two people who came near the location of Will's corpse.
**
Jack who had left his residence walked leisurely while looking at all the shops and stalls on the main street of the black market started muttering to himself.
“Should I give Justin's body to Max's shop to sell to his subscription? Or should I sell myself in my shop? Hmm...It looks like how yes?”
“.....” Riz just silently listened to Jack mutter from behind
Riz who walked behind his role model continued to pray in his heart.
‘Hopefully no problem, hopefully no problem, hopefully no problem! I beg you whatever happens, hopefully no one is involved in troublesome things like killing each other. At least if they want to do it, not in front of me! I'm enough to sell the bodies of anyone who dies!’
Jack, who had seen Riz walking with a depressed face behind him, started calling out his name.
“Riz...are you okay?”
“.....” Riz did not answer Jack
“Riz?”
“……”
“……”
“.....” Jack start silent
The silent Jack began to recall what had happened before, as he was alone with his wife in the cutter room.
‘Now I know how Seren felt when he called my name even made him throw his knife because I ignored his call. Oh, my angel~forgive this behavior of your husband, my dear’
Even without his wife, Jack could still do a monologue in the drama.
Riz who had finished praying started to take a deep breath and asked Jack.
“What did Jack-sama call me?”
“No. I just feel that karma just came to me”
“Karma for killing many people?”
“Not. Karma for ignoring my wife's call three times this afternoon. If that karma can still be when I die. So if you can't come while I'm alive”
“....” Riz was speechless with a flat face
Jack's sense of humor is really not easily accepted common sense. This proves that Riz has a role model with an extraordinary level of humor is difficult to accept by most normal humans.
“A–I want to know why we do not run and instead relax like this, Jack-sama” Riz asked with the aim of switching topics earlier
“Hmm..I just want to take a leisurely walk. You also don't forget that my wife is ahead of us, right? Besides, this is still my territory. Therefore, I am very confident..”.
“Confidence..?”
“Confidence can cut off the feet of intruders who dare to bring the masterpiece of God's creation it”
Now, Riz is back to provoke the aura of killing Jack. It seemed like he was really not talented making the atmosphere calm. Jack continued his words.
“Oh, but since they're the ones who came along with you and Arkan.maybe I can offer you some things like..”.
“Like to go from here on life?” Riz became a little excited
“...As go with two to three broken bones and one severed arm. But, I will try their heads can not be separated from the place”
“Ja–Jack-sama.it is not funny..at once” said Riz with a scared face.
“Indeed who called that a joke. Of course I'm serious”
Riz could not drift any deeper. All of Jack's words sounded provocative and provoked his fear. He had to do everything he could to stay calm while thinking about all the worst possibilities in front of him later.
‘If indeed Jack-sama meets with Ryou and Kaito later, I should be able to make him confident to let go of the brand all and do my initial intention to go home. After taking the money and paying for the teenager's freedom, I really had to stay away from Arkan and all of them for a while. Come, Riz! You should be able to do it! Luck...party to me!’
After a leisurely walk, about five to ten minutes later Jack began to pause.
“I smell a familiar scent here”
Riz sniffed the air there then answered Jack in an unconvinced tone.
“This...is not aroma...blood?”.
Jack still had not changed his facial expression and remained calm. He started walking around with a smile on his face. Riz who saw Jack walking with a smile started to feel scared.
‘My feelings are starting to get bad. It was clearly the scent of blood. Could anyone have been killed there? The only guess I have is the possibility that one of Ryou or Kaito managed to get into this place and defeat Uncle Will. I don't think Uncle Will will actually lose or be killed while facing them. But..is this scent of blood the scent of one of the two teenagers?’
Riz's palms began to sweat and his heart began to beat faster as if he had run a marathon.
As Riz walked while thinking about many of the heavy hypotheses, his footsteps came to a halt not long after he saw Jack stop. With a gulp of his saliva, he walked up to Jack and was surprised by what he saw.
“Mu–mustahil..why...why can this be?”
Riz covered his mouth with one hand and saw something lying on the ground. The large body was muscular with tattoos, the right arm being separated from his body and a large meat knife. Moreover, the corpse had no head around the place.
It was impossible for Riz not to know whose dead body was lying there.
“Pa–pa–paman..Will...” a smirked tone Riz out call Will's name.
The silent Jack approached the corpse and looked at it up close.
“This William. Where's his head?”
It does sound like he's talking nonsense, but Jack is actually paying attention to the wounds on Will's entire body.
‘Rugged long strokes and gunshot wounds. There were also marks on his left neck and calf. This was obviously done by two different people. But, the cut wounds on the neck and right hand are neater than the long incisions on his body. It seems, the person is used to fighting’
Jack started to look a little excited and saw Riz.
“Riz..”
“Ah? I–iya Jack-sama?” Riz who was still in shock answered Jack
“I really want to meet the person you brought in now”
