[Master K] The bad one next door

It was already the next day when the group was really ready for the battle.

Of course, there is no bedroom in this situation, and the few people spent the night in the warehouse to make do.Because of overwork and constant fear, they fell asleep quickly, and only felt sore when they woke up.Fortunately, my energy and spirit are much better than yesterday, so I can prepare well for today's battle.

"However, it's really hard for you, Misaki, to keep watch at night again."

At the corner of the corridor on the third floor, Mami put his sniper gun on his back, carefully checked the pistol that had been refilled with ammunition, turned his fingers around the wrench neatly, and then inserted the muzzle firmly in the In the holster at the thigh.

"...Not at all." Hatta replied in a low voice, "After all, you should take a good rest, right?"

"Hey - thank you so much for your thoughtfulness."

Shinya showed a relaxed smile, took his pocket knife from Hatta, and spread the blade out in front of his eyes.In the bright blade, her quiet black eyes staring at the gap on the blade are clearly reflected.

"It's rare that Misaki cares about others so much, I'll treat you guys to a big meal after I get out."

"You..." Hatta opened his eyes wide, stared at her for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Is now the time to say such things?!"

Mami was stunned, put down the folding knife in his hand, and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm a little nervous... I always feel that if I don't say something to divert my attention, I will be so nervous that I can't move, so..."

She didn't say any more, but Misaki Hatta could understand.

He opened his mouth, but suddenly he couldn't utter a word, so he could only keep silent.The empty corridor with only two people fell silent with his silence.

After a few seconds of silence.

"Hey, sure enough..."

Maki glanced at Hatta suspiciously: "Huh?"

The orange-haired boy suddenly raised his head, took a step forward, and stared straight at her: "As expected...forget it!"

"It's just turning on the power, and it doesn't have to be this way! You're a girl, and you're still injured, so there's no need to take such a risk!!" Hatta's amber eyes were full of anxiety .The hand hanging by his side keeps opening and closing, obviously he has fallen into a state of extreme anxiety: "F-Few more! If something happens to you, how should I explain to Aunt Ryoko—"

sorry.

Hatta Misaki completely regretted agreeing to this ridiculous plan.

The black-haired girl in front of her was carrying a gun. Even though her body was covered with lethal weapons, her clear eyes and harmless appearance made her look like a child carrying a toy.

It's impossible to imagine her surviving that kind of onslaught.

Hatta opened his mouth, his throat was dry.

If anything happens to her...

If anything happened to her—

Maki looked at him quietly, was silent for a while, and said, "Misaki."

"Indeed, there may be other ways, but so far we have only this way out. There are still people waiting for us outside, and we don't have time to waste it like this." She took a deep breath, "Besides, some things always It takes someone else to do it.”

—like those students in the espionage department.

——They know that this is a road to darkness, but they have no choice for the people they want to protect.

Hatta stared blankly at her firm gaze, pursed his lips after a while, pulled down his hood to cover his eyes, and looked away: "...I see. At least let me accompany you, in that case the chances of escaping will be higher." It will be bigger..."

However, Maki shook her head: "No."

"Huh?" The orange-haired boy paused and glared at her angrily, "What the hell do you want!"

Mami looked into his angry eyes, spelling each word clearly: "Mr. Akagi and the others need you."

"What kind of a bad reason is that?! Do you just want to die and—"

"Misaki, maybe you don't realize it, but you've been the pillar of our four-member team from the very beginning!" Maki said, "If something happens to me, it's just a burden, but what if something happens to you?" What to do? You are the core of the team and the main force in the battle. Akagi alone cannot take care of Yuantaro easily. It can only be said that he is alone and helpless! I can't let you take this risk!"

Not far away, a wandering blood man was already attracted by their arguments, and staggered towards them.Hatta's eyes were red with anger from her theory: "Troublesome? Yazawa Shinya, are you an idiot?! Who do you take us for? We Barbara will never do anything to abandon our companions—"

"But Barbara can give everything to protect his companions." Zhenya interrupted him.When the orange-haired boy was in a daze, she raised her head and looked straight into his eyes: "Misaki, tell me, will Barbara put Mr. Zun into danger?"

Hatta replied subconsciously: "Of course not!"

"Does Mr. Zun really trust everyone in Barbara?"

"Is not this nonsensical!"

"Then," Maki let out a breath slowly, lowering her eyes, "Misaki, please trust me like Mr. Zun trusts you."

She bowed deeply to the orange-haired boy who was suddenly stunned, and stretched out her hand.

--"please."

On the open palm is the emblem of Tokyo Butei High School, which is gradually shining.

yesterday.

The fist mixed with the fierce wind stopped abruptly less than one centimeter away from the boy's cheek.

Hara Taro's side face was wiped with a slight red mark in the blowing wind of the fist.In the silence, he stared blankly at the gloomy face of the orange-haired boy in front of him. His chest and abdomen heaved violently, and a numbness and pain began to spread from the wound on his side face.

Hatta Misaki's eyes were slightly bloodshot, and the amber pupils were stained with blood red, and the irrational gaze made people tremble.Hara Taro was stunned for a while, then regained his senses for a while, and said with a blank expression: "...why?"

Hatta took a deep breath, and only slowly lowered his arms after suppressing the turbulent fire pressure in his heart.

"Don't get me wrong, brat, I really want to kill you, and I still do it now." He glanced coldly at Gentaro's side face that was beginning to ooze tiny drops of blood, "But Shinya would never want such a thing to happen. "

Harutaro remained silent.

"That idiot can show kindness even to people like you. The extremely idiot vocabulary of good man was invented just for an idiot like her." Hatta jumped out word by word from between his teeth, obviously aiming at the person in front of him. The boy hated it to the core.

"Although I don't know what's going on with you, I'll tell you clearly when we first meet, right?"

"Mami has a good temper, but I'm not such an easy-talking person like her."

"It's all right that you're so self-willed, you brat, to make such excessive demands on Mami is to push her into the pit of fire! It's because she treats you so hard as a companion!" As he spoke, Hatta was already angry His voice became unsteady, "You bastard..."

Yuan Taro watched quietly as he was about to run away, without saying a word.When the boy scolded him so much that he really didn't know how to scold him, he said calmly, "Do you really think Yazawa Maya is just an idiot?"

"……what?"

"Indeed, she is a kind person, even a bad kid like me can be patient with her, but that doesn't mean she is an out-and-out soft-hearted fool." Hara Taro paused, then said, "Deciding whether to carry out this The plan is her own decision. She knows exactly what she's doing."

Hatta was so angry that he grabbed his collar and picked him up: "So you mean you have no responsibility at all, you bastard?!"

Hara Taro looked back at the past without flinching: "...No. What I mean is that she would make this choice not because she blindly trusted me, but because she knew what to do was the most correct and beneficial."

"—She knows how to protect you in her own way, Mr. Hatta."

……

Hatta's pupils suddenly shrank.

"Varied--"

"Mr. Hatta, I am just playing a guiding role, and she is the one who really makes the decision." Yuan Taro pulled out a mocking smile, "She is a sensible person, if it is only for herself or me, she will not do it at all. Such a big sacrifice. For her, I hope you can at least be a sensible person."

"Respect her choice and accept her kindness. Choose to believe in Yazawa Maya's ability for self-comfort—this is what you should at least do, Mr. Hatta."

Asakamihara Taro—Yada didn't know whether the person who said this to him was Asakamihara Taro himself, but he still called him that—this person, he saw things very clearly.Even Shinya himself may not have understood what he said.

— After all, she's an idiot.he thinks.

That day, after Hara Taro finished muttering a lot, Hatta was silent for a long time before letting him go and saying: I understand.

Then, in the next second, he raised his arm and punched the boy hard in the face.

After a dull "bang" sounded, Yuan Taro fell to the ground with his hands covering his cheeks.Hatta restrained himself a little with this punch, so that he didn't knock out his teeth mixed with blood, but obviously, even though he was as shrewd as a boy, he didn't expect this to happen.He lay sideways on the ground, looking in disbelief at the orange-haired boy blowing his fists easily, completely unable to understand how the person in front of him could change like a typhoon.

Hatta Misaki put the baseball bat on her shoulder, stepped on the shoulder of the boy on the ground, and said with disdain on her face, "Tch, I still don't feel relieved until I punch you...I said you, I want to know why I hit you Right?"

"I don't understand your rationale. It's annoying to hear you twittering there. Anyway, I understand. First—" Hatta raised an index finger, "It's you, a scumbag, who instigated Mami to do this kind of thing." Errands. And the second—”

A sinister smile appeared on the boy's face.

"Your look makes me sick, bastard."

……

On the girl's white palm, the special school emblem of Tokyo Butei High School gradually glowed under the light, making it extremely dazzling.

Misaki Hatta stared at the black-haired girl who bent deeply towards her, and remained silent for a long time.

"...Tch, I see."

"Huh?" Mami raised her head, her clear black eyes looked at him in surprise.Hatta scratched her orange hair a little irritably, grabbed the school badge in her hand, and held it tightly in her palm: "I've said it all, I know! Now that you've said that, it's too much not to believe you. … ...Anyway, your feet are all right, right?"

Mami froze for a moment, her eyes lit up.

"Yes, basically nothing serious!"

"Has the terrain been scouted?"

"Yes! I surveyed the terrain of these floors with Mr. Akagi yesterday, and we have already decided on a basic escape route!"

Hatta sniffled, and said in a muffled voice, "...Hey, didn't you say that you would treat me to dinner after you go out?"

"...Huh? Yes, yes, there is such a thing..."

Hatta Misaki looked at her, turned her head away slightly, and her face blushed a little: "Si-since you have made a promise... Then when you go out, you must, must, must treat you! At that time, pull Barbara Those guys will definitely eat you poorly, just wait for me!"

After the orange-haired boy said these words with an awkward expression, Maki finally couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth.

In the bright light, her smile looked even brighter.The black-haired girl nodded heavily, and the cute little canine teeth loomed at the corners of her mouth: "Okay, you can eat as you like then!"

"Puff--puff--"

In the pale corridor, a few blood-red humanoid creatures walked alone.

The skin on their bodies was almost festered, and the flesh was crumbling with the vibrations brought by the walking, and a bloody smell wafted faintly. The combination of bright red and white was inexplicably reminiscent of the scarlet splashes on the snow-white sheets of the hospital.

"...Akagi, how is the situation?"

The young man in the peaked cap at the corner of the corridor turned his head and nodded to the three people behind him: "No problem, it's easy to break in."

"I understand." Hatta Misaki put a baseball bat on her shoulder, put one hand on her waist, and scanned the surrounding people sharply with her eyes, and said, "Later, Akagi and I will cover Miya, and the brat will be responsible for hiding himself." , are you clear?"

Seeing the three people around nodding seriously, Hatta pursed his lips, turned around neatly and jumped on the skateboard, kicked off the ground, and rushed out from the corner in a hurry.

"So--"

When the blood men wandering in the corridor heard the noise, they all turned their heads and walked towards him dragging their broken limbs, roaring "ho ho" from their throats.

The orange-haired boy raised his baseball bat, and a fierce light flashed in his amber eyes.

"—The battle begins!"
