Chapter 646: Let’s Exterminate

　　Because of the festival, Dotonbori was much less crowded than usual tonight.

　　Three handsome teenagers in floral yukata, together with an older man holding a little girl’s hand, leisurely walked towards the Black Sycamore Club.

　　Lin Qiye, Xiao Jin, and Amamiya Haruhide were holding a skewer of barbecue in their hands, eating as they walked, and in the words of Uncle Kyousuke, this was a little bit of payment for their good publicity and advertisement tonight ……

　　Eating the barbecue, Lin Qiye got a little soft and decided to give Uncle Kyousuke a more festive big red color when he puts the sack on him tonight.

　　”Brother Seven Nights! Uncle Kyousuke agreed that I should bring Grandma Tsuru over and stay at the club together from now on!” Yuzurina excitedly ran to Lin Qiye’s side and said.

　　”Hm?” Lin Qiye’s eyebrows rose slightly as if he was a bit surprised, “Bringing Grandma Crane over?”

　　Lin Qiye looked towards Uncle Kyousuke, who was walking at the end, and doubt surfaced in his eyes.

　　Normal bosses would want their employees to work as oxen and not stop until they milked him dry of his value, but Uncle Kyousuke’s behavior made him a bit puzzled ……

　　Hiring Yuzurina was already outside Lin Qiye’s expectations, after all, she was only a twelve or thirteen year old girl, although she was very hardworking, there were definitely some things that were not as perfect as a regular waiter would do, but he still chose to hire Yuzurina and gave her a generous salary.

　　It would be understandable if this was to retain Lin Qiye as a new star of the cowboy, but now that he was willing to pick up Grandma Tsuru it was completely beyond Lin Qiye’s scope of understanding.

　　Picking up a seventy-something year old grandmother to a cowboy store, wasn’t that adding to his burden?

　　”Right! Uncle Kyousuke is so nice!” Yuzurina smiled brightly, “In the future, we can be together all the time.”

　　Lin Qiye looked at Yuzu Rina’s smile, his heart was a little complicated, the Yuzu Rina he knew, from the very beginning, was mature to the point of being a heartbreaking young adult, this was the first time he saw the pure smile belonging to a twelve or thirteen year old girl on her face.

　　But he didn’t answer, because he knew very well in his own heart that it was impossible for him to stay here for long.

　　However, if Yuzurina could stay here and live happily, it seemed not bad at all?

　　Yuzurina bounced in the forefront, the light pink cherry blossom hairpin swirling a faint halo under the neon lights, the few wisps of sideburns that floated up dancing in the air as she smiled like a flower.

　　The other four followed behind her, the corners of their mouths all bringing up a hint of a smile if nothing else.

　　Yuzurina turned the corner and was about to walk into the club when she suddenly froze in place.

　　She stared blankly ahead, the end of the street that should have been brightly lit was now pitch black.

　　”Why don’t you go?” Xiao Jin spoke in confusion as he turned the corner and froze in place as well when he saw the scene in front of him.

　　At the end of the dark street, the ground was filled with broken glass slags, reflecting the hazy moonlight, like a carpet of broken silver laid on the ground. Club doors, windows, all smashed to pieces, high-end atmospheric neon sign has now fallen to the ground, the font on it crooked, occasionally a few strands of sparks from the neon tube splashed out, illuminating a corner of the dark street.

　　Inside the club, the front desk had been smashed, the cabinet with expensive drinks had been emptied, a dozen or so bottles of wine shattered on the ground, the liquor liquefied into a lake that slowly flowed, soaking the tables and chairs of the restaurant that had fallen to the east.

　　The Black Sycamore Club, a mess.

　　”This is ……,” Lin Qiye’s brows tightly furrowed.

　　Amamiya Haruhide’s eyes narrowed slightly as he turned his head and locked eyes with Lin Qiye, both already having guesses in their hearts.

　　Something like smashing a store could only be done by the yakuza, but the Black Killer Group was definitely not possible, so the identity of the person who did this was already calling out ……

　　”Aiya, you guys are finally back!” In the izakaya next door, an older woman hurriedly ran out and said to several people, “Two hours ago, I saw that group of yakuza that had been causing trouble in Dotonbori running over, and without saying a word, they directly smashed the door and went in, as if they were looking for something, and made a mess inside ……

　　Either, or you guys should call the police!”

　　Yuzurina stood at the door of the dim and wretched club, staring blankly at the scene inside that was just like a garbage dump, her body trembled uncontrollably, and she bit her lips tightly, her eyes a little red.

　　”Why ah ……” she muttered, her voice took on a hint of crying, “Why, those people have been chasing me not to let go …… I clearly what have done nothing wrong …… Why are they doing this ……

　　It’s been so hard for me to find a little place in this world where I belong …… Why ……”

　　Yuzurina stood there, only feeling her heart breaking apart piece by piece, a few seconds ago, she was still envisioning a bright future living here, and now, reality shattered all her expectations and fantasies.

　　She stood in the darkness, tears streaming down her face, like a child who had lost everything.

　　Just then, a figure slowly walked behind her.

　　Uncle Kyousuke placed his hand on her shoulder and looked at the Black Sycamore Club, which was in shambles in front of him, those eyes were like a deep winter lake, calm and terrifying.

　　”It’s not your fault, little Yuzuri-chan ……” he said softly and comfortingly.

　　Yuzurina turned around, her eyes that were red from crying looked at Uncle Kyousuke accusingly, she opened her hand and hugged Uncle Kyousuke’s waist as she bawled her eyes out:

　　”I’m sorry …… Kyousuke uncle, it’s all because of me …… because of me, they made this place like this, it’s all because of me …… I’m sorry ……”

　　Uncle Kyousuke gently touched her head, the calmness in those eyes could no longer hold down the stupid rage, like a volcano in the deep sea, about to erupt.

　　”Let’s go out for a bit.”

　　Lin Qiye took a deep breath and averted his gaze from Yuzurina’s body, doing his best to contain the anger within him as he calmly said.

　　In his eyes, a morose killing intent surfaced.

　　Amamiya Haruhide turned around in silence and walked side by side with Lin Qiye, gradually disappearing at the end of the street.

　　When they walked onto the deserted neon street, Amamiya Haruhui slowly pulled out a long, dark blue sword from the red umbrella he had put away, slung it around his waist, and gently gripped his left hand on top of the hilt.

　　Tick-!

　　A drop of rain fell from the sky.

　　Two red umbrellas opened.

　　Clattering ……

　　The rain, the more it fell, the bigger it became.

　　The rain poured onto the surface of the two red umbrellas, and flowed onto the asphalt pavement along the tilted angle.

　　This sudden downpour drenched the pedestrians around them, and they cried out in alarm as they ducked under the eaves of the surrounding houses, looking worriedly at the night sky overhead.

　　With such a clear night sky, no one thought it would rain, so they didn’t bring umbrellas.

　　But some people had brought umbrellas.

　　They, also, brought knives.

　　In the rain, two teenagers in floral yukatas held red umbrellas, calmly walking on the hazy neon streets, their figures fading away.

　　A vague voice came from the rain.

　　”The Cold River family …… exterminate it.”
