Chapter 226: All beings are equal in front of you!
Chapter 226: All beings are equal in front of you!
Azusa Enomoto curled up under the bar, almost holding her breath, her heart beating rapidly.
Her eyes were filled with fear, and she didn't even dare to look up at the stranger in front of her.
There were constant gunshots outside, and she could only hold on to Miyano Akemi's sleeves tightly, feeling her heartbeat quicken due to nervousness.
Arak had that sickening smile on his face.
"You are just a small character, insignificant, but your sister Miyano Shiho is a talent that the organization values very much. As long as we get you, Miyano Shiho will be ours."
Miyano Akemi's eyes remained calm, her voice icy cold: "My sister and I are very different. I'm afraid your organization can't afford to offend the person next to her, right?"
Arak was stunned for a moment, then laughed, as if he had heard a funny joke.
"Hahaha! Indeed, Wu Chen is a legendary figure."
He spread his hands.
"but……"
His smile grew more sinister.
"The organization has sent a secret weapon to deal with him. Tsk tsk, I'm afraid Wuchen is already dead! The amplification of that drug is really tempting. If I bring you back to the organization, I wonder if the organization will also inject me with that drug? It's really exciting~~~"
Hearing these words, Miyano Akemi's pupils shrank sharply, and a strong sense of unease rose in her heart. Her mind was racing. She simply didn't believe what Arak said. She tried to remain calm and not let these words affect her decision-making.
A dangerous light flashed in Miyano Akemi's eyes, but she still maintained a serious expression, and even curled up a sneer at the corner of her mouth: "Are you the only one who came to see me?" she asked lightly.
Arak was completely unaware that he had been completely seen through by Miyano Akemi, and he spread his hands triumphantly: "How many more people do I need to deal with you?"
Miyano Akemi's smile remained. She did not rush to respond, but just lowered her head slightly, as if she was thinking about something.
She looked at Enomoto Azusa with a soothing look in her eyes, then raised her head again, her lips curled up in a chilling smile: "Then I'm relieved."
Arak was about to say something else when suddenly, Miyano Akemi's smile disappeared without a trace.
Her eyes suddenly became sharp and cold, and her hands quickly stretched out from under the bar, grabbing the long-hidden weapon without hesitation.
"boom!"
A loud noise broke the silence of the coffee shop, and the sound waves even caused Azusa Enomoto's eardrums to vibrate violently.
The bullet passed through the bar and hit Arak's abdomen with a violent impact.
Arak's face turned pale in an instant. He stared at his abdomen with wide eyes in disbelief, and blood gushed out like a fountain.
His body shook violently and he took two steps back. His mouth opened, but no sound came out.
Only then did he feel the pain. The wound in his abdomen had expanded rapidly, and his intestines were almost pouring out. He covered the wound with one hand, his legs weakly kneeling down, his whole body shaking violently.
Miyano Akemi didn't hesitate at all. She took out her gun, a Beretta 686, from under the bar with quick and decisive movements.
The barrel twisted slightly, ejecting a red shell. She skillfully loaded two shotgun shells, and crisp "pop" sounds echoed in the air.
She shook the gun lightly and adjusted the angle of the gun, still maintaining a high level of vigilance against Arak.
Arak widened his eyes. He looked at this usually weak-looking woman and suddenly felt a chill.
He found it hard to understand why this seemingly harmless woman could be hiding such a deadly weapon and shoot without hesitation.
He wanted to say something, but no sound came out of his throat and he could only stare at Miyano Akemi.
She still showed no mercy, but just looked at him coldly, as if he had already been condemned and death was only a matter of time.
"You...you actually...can..."
Arak uttered these words with difficulty, his whole body trembling, but his eyes were full of anger and unwillingness.
Miyano Akemi's eyes remained calm, as if she was facing a defeated prey.
She slowly raised the gun and scanned him with a cold gaze: "You underestimated me and overestimated yourself."
She didn't wait for a response, she fired directly, her movements clean and sharp.
"boom!"
"you……"
Before Arak could finish his words, his head was shattered by the powerful force of the shotgun. His body began to completely lose strength. He fell to the ground powerlessly, and blood covered the floor.
Miyano Akemi lowered her head, calmly put away the gun, and turned to look at Enomoto Azusa.
The cold murderous look in her eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a gentle comfort. "It's okay," she said softly, "You can come out now."
Azusa Enomoto cautiously poked his head out from under the bar, his face pale and his eyes full of shock and confusion.
She couldn't believe that Sister Mingmei in front of her could face all this so calmly, and even dealt with this ill-intentioned enemy without mercy.
Miyano Akemi took a deep breath and looked up at Enomoto Azusa who was looking at her in shock.
The gunshots and everything that happened just now obviously shocked this girl who had always lived in the sunshine. Even the air seemed to be still, and the whole world seemed to have stopped.
Miyano Akemi's heart sank slightly, and a trace of helplessness flashed through her heart.
She knew that what she did was indeed too cruel. For a girl as pure as the sun, such a scene would probably be difficult to accept.
Azusa Enomoto's eyes were filled with fear and confusion. Her world had just been completely turned upside down. Miyano Akemi felt a little regretful for a moment, regretting that she had not tried her best to avoid this violence.
But then she realized that she had no other choice.
So, she whispered, trying to comfort this friend who had shared warm times with her: "Xiao Zi, don't be afraid, I..."
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly heard a soft murmur: "So handsome..."
Miyano Akemi was stunned.
She subconsciously turned her head and looked at Azusa Enomoto in front of her.
He saw this once delicate girl who always had a sunny smile, now staring at him with admiration, and even little stars in her eyes, as if what he had just done was not ending a life, but completing some great feat.
"Uh...what's going on?"
Miyano Akemi looked at Enomoto Azusa in confusion, she didn't react at all.
Suddenly, Azusa Enomoto jumped up, rushed over like a child, and hugged Miyano Akemi.
Her voice was filled with excitement and admiration: "Sister Mingmei! You're so handsome! So cool!"
Miyano Akemi was completely stunned. Her mind went blank, and for a few seconds she couldn't even comprehend what was happening before her.
Azusa Enomoto, who is usually well-behaved, gentle and a little shy, now pounces on her like a fan, with a crazy look on her face, and her tone is full of excitement and admiration.
"Uh, Azusa..."
Miyano Akemi spoke somewhat at a loss and gently patted Enomoto Azusa's back.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"Sister Mingmei, you are so handsome!"
Azusa Enomoto was not afraid or uneasy at all, but became even more excited. She hugged Miyano Akemi and spoke quickly in her ear.
"You've become like a superhero! I used to think you were awesome, but now I know you're actually a hidden mastermind! You know what? That shot just now was so cool, it was straight out of a movie!"
Miyano Akemi was completely dumbfounded, feeling completely devastated. This best friend seemed to be even more powerful than she had imagined...
However, Miyano Akemi was relieved. No matter what, Enomoto Azusa was not too scared and did not distance herself from her, which was a good thing!
---
"Jingle Bell!"
"Manager! Xiaozi! You... uh..."
As the wind chimes at the door of the store rang crisply, Akemi Miyano subconsciously raised the Beretta 686 in her hand, pointing the muzzle directly at the door.
At this moment, her expression was calm, as if she was accustomed to this sudden danger, but there was a hint of panic in her eyes.
The relaxed conversation with Azusa Enomoto just now seemed to disappear in an instant, replaced by a state of concentrated alertness.
However, when she saw the blond, dark-skinned young man rushing in, her hand paused slightly.
Toru Amuro raised his hands, looking extremely innocent, and the words he wanted to say were blocked in his mouth by the gun barrel.
"Touko?!"
Miyano Akemi growled, her brows slightly furrowed, a hint of surprise flashing across her eyes.
However, before Amuro Toru could speak, Yuya Kazami, who was following closely behind him, quickly pulled out his pistol and pointed it at Miyano Akemi, his eyes alert, obviously prepared for any emergency.
"Put the gun down!"
Miyano Akemi was yelled at, and the muzzle of the gun was pointed directly at the uninvited guest.
Only then did Toru Amuro suddenly realize that the gun in Miyano Akemi's hand was not a toy. The caliber looked like it was used directly to deal with elephants. Even though he was carrying a pistol, he couldn't help but be secretly alert in his heart.
"Kazami! Don't get excited!" Amuro Toru shouted quickly, his voice filled with anxiety: "We are one of them! These are innocent citizens!"
Yuya Kazami was stunned for a moment, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, but when he saw that Toru Amuro did not make any abnormal movements, he retracted the gun and continued to look around vigilantly.
Miyano Akemi also put down her gun and let out a long sigh.
She carefully looked at the two people in front of her, and saw that Amuro Toru had a thoughtful expression on his face, and she felt a little relieved: "You guys are really... I was almost scared to death by you."
"Uh... you're the one who's going to scare me to death..."
Amuro Toru glanced inside the store, his gaze fixed on Arak's headless body. His expression froze slightly. "Manager, did you do this?"
Miyano Akemi nodded, her tone a little frightened. "Yeah. Arak, the guy from that organization, came to kidnap me and threaten my sister, but I ended up killing him."
After hearing this, a look of realization appeared on Amuro Toru's face.
“Oh~~~ I see…”
He nodded slightly relaxed, his eyes moving away from the corpse to look at Miyano Akemi.
"I'm glad you're okay. I just happened to be passing by and saw the door of the cafe was damaged, so I came in to take a look. In that case, I won't bother you anymore. You and Xiaozi stay here and don't go out. Wait for my news."
Miyano Akemi nodded, and her tone suddenly turned serious: "Wait a moment, Touko."
Amuro Toru paused, turned around, and his relaxed expression instantly regained its alertness: "Manager, is there anything else?"
Miyano Akemi narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a lukewarm tone, "Just now, Arak talked about their plan. It seems that they have developed some kind of human enhancement drug, and they have already sent enhanced people to deal with Mr. Chen Shuo. You have to be careful."
Hearing this, Amuro Toru's eyes darkened, his pupils constricted slightly, and he quickly regained his composure. He nodded, his tone becoming serious: "Thank you, Manager. I'll be careful."
Toru Amuro nodded slightly and pulled Yuya Kazami to leave.
At this moment, Miyano Akemi's voice rang out again, with a cold and threatening tone, like a whisper from the abyss: "Wait..."
Toru Amuro paused, feeling a little uneasy involuntarily.
He looked at Miyano Akemi and saw that her eyes were unfriendly, and it seemed that the atmosphere around her had become cold and severe.
Toru Amuro suddenly had an ominous premonition. He could already sense the coming "storm" from Miyano Akemi's eyes.
Miyano Akemi's voice was still gentle, but with a chilling coldness: "Since you are always absent at critical moments, I think I have to think carefully about your salary this year."
Toru Amuro was stunned. He subconsciously widened his eyes, as if he had not yet reacted to the sudden words.
The smile on his face froze instantly, but a huge wave had already risen in his heart.
He stood there in a daze as if he had been hit by a spell, his eyes were empty, and an expression like the world-famous painting "The Scream" instantly appeared on his face. The word "salary" in his mind was like an ice cone piercing every nerve in his body.
"Ahhhh!!!!" Amuro Toru's voice was so loud that he even screamed out of control.
P.S. Touko's expression is exactly like mine... I've been heartbroken! I'm single now!
