Chapter Seven: That's it, Hikiya Hachiman's choice (II)
What happened? After the gunshots rang out, the surrounding guests became more or less impatient. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć As a result of the discussion, the whole restaurant has become less quiet, and some curious people have begun to walk towards the point of the incident, while a few people are anxious, wondering if it is time to leave.
[Koki, what should I do?] Yubihama looked at me a little anxiously, not only her, but also under the snow and Komachi looked like me.
[No, even if you ask me that, I can't make up my mind] You look at me like this, it's the first time I've encountered this kind of thing.
I looked around, and there were already quite a few people gathered around what was supposed to be a children's pool, and it seemed that the gunshots were coming from there. The police in the crowd are trying to control the crowd, shouting with loudspeakers to maintain order, but there are still many people squeezing into the crowd, people are curious.
I shook my head and expressed my opinion, indeed, if it's just an ordinary bandit, it's fine, but judging from what I just shouted, this bandit obviously has a gun, and if the negotiation with the police is not good, it is very likely that he should raise a gun and shoot at the crowd for emotional outbursts, I really don't know what those people think, aren't they afraid of being injured and innocent?
[Yes, yes, then let's go] Under the snow, he looked worriedly at the crowd at the place of the incident and the police who kept shouting, and sighed.
[Hey, it's hard to come out and play once, and you can actually encounter this kind of thing......] Yubihama also said regretfully [I don't know if anyone will get hurt]
[I'll leave this matter to the police.,Let's go back honestly] I turned around and pulled Komachi, who had been standing on a chair looking out at the crowd, down [Let's go, Komachi, don't be curious]
[Eh, brother, don't you want to look at it again?]
[No, no, no, it's not a special show, so if you want to see it, go home and watch a movie] When did Komachi have such curiosity, hey.
Komachi, who was pulled down by me, complained, and his face was puffed up, so why would you be interested in this? Normal female high school students are not usually interested in this kind of thing, right? However, Komachi still went to pack up his things and prepare to leave, which is still very easy to communicate.
Just as we were packing up our things and preparing to leave, another word came over the loudspeaker of the police in the distance
[We will try our best to meet your request, but it will take time, please be sure to ensure the personal safety of Miss Snow Down]
Miss Snow is with us, so, under the snow..... No, it can't be, that person will be a hostage? It's ridiculous to think about, but ......
I looked back at the snow, and she was turning her head to look at the crowd in the distance, with a worried and hesitant expression. Yuhihama and Komachi are also together with the snow.
[Well, under the snow, you heard the shouting just now," I asked.
[Well, it's just...]
[Just not sure]
Yukixia nodded, but seemed to be struggling with something.
[If you can't put your mind at ease, let's go check it out.,Let's go and we'll do it together] [Uh-huh, Koyukino, I'm with you, don't worry] [Komachi will be with you, too, Sister Yukino] Yubihama and Komachi are also persuaded by the side.
[That... I'm going to make sure, please]
The four of us slowly walked towards the crowd, and the expressions under the snow began to become solemn, and our hands were already clenched into fists, not sure yet, but still worried. Although the relationship between Xuexia and her sister is not so good, they are family after all.
When we reached the periphery of the crowd, we couldn't know what was going on inside because of the close crowd. I looked at the crowd, there must have been too many of them.
[You guys wait for me outside, I'll check on the situation] I said to them, and before they could reply, I turned around and squeezed into the crowd. After all, I'm a boy, so it's more convenient.
After some struggle, I finally squeezed into the front row and could see inside:
The police have set up a cordon in front of the crowd, because there are too many onlookers, they have to divide some police forces to maintain order, in the middle of the pool, there is a stage built for children to perform programs, and the color of the water around the stage has become bright red, the smell of blood! On the edge of the stage, there were already two people in security uniforms, but they didn't seem to be dead, because they could still clearly see the ups and downs of their exhalation, but the thighs of the two people were still bleeding, and it would be dangerous to go on like this. In the middle of the stage, a middle-aged man is holding hostages and confronting the police.
Under the Snow - Yang Nai! is really a sister under the snow. Now she was being held to the head by the robbers, with one hand around her neck, and she was held hostage in front of the robbers. The gun-wielding bandit was a tall, lanky man in a white suit, and his face was now distorted by excitement, and he didn't have the kind of beard on TV, and he looked like a businessman? Look at Miss Yono, who was taken hostage by him.
............ Miss Yono has changed back into her dress, but her face no longer has her signature smile, but a strong face, and there is no trace of fear on her face, but, I always feel that it is very incongruous, this strong expression, more like a disguise.
Miss Yono's eyes are no longer the same colored eyes as before, looking at her eyes, I feel that the whole person has been sucked into a black hole - self-blame, self-mockery, regret, relief.... And despair! Yes, it's despair, there's nothing wrong, it's a desperate eye, I can't see it wrong, I can't remember it, it's the same as it was back then! I took a deep breath and shook my head vigorously, trying to clear myself up. He looked around again and squeezed out of the crowd.
As soon as I came out, the three of them asked worriedly in order to come up and under the snow.
[Under the snow, although I also hope it is not your sister, but the fact cannot be changed, your sister was taken hostage by the robbers, but she has not been harmed in any way, and the robbers do not seem to have any concerns and do not continue to shoot, so the current situation is stable for the time being. I calmly told them the truth.
[Really..... It's okay for the time being] Xue Xia lowered her head after hearing the exact news, and became even more worried, as you can tell from her trembling hands from pulling the corners of her clothes. She was so worried. Although he wanted to comfort her, he couldn't speak, after all, his sister was kidnapped, and it was a lie to say don't worry. Yuhihama and Komachi sat down on a chair under the snow, patted her on the back with their hands, and tried to relax under the snow. But it didn't work.
I frowned, thought for a moment, and silently made up my mind - this is for me, for her and her agreement.
I walked over and looked at the snow that had turned pale [my words, if you are safe, you can save your sister, so don't be afraid] I really don't want to see a sad look under the snow again.
[Really?] suddenly looked up at me under the snow, but said excitedly [No! you can't go, you can't go!]
[Koki, what can you do?] Yubihama also looked up and asked me, while Komachi looked at me with a puzzled expression.
[Hey, under the snow, don't be so excited, I have my own judgment] I looked firmly at the snow [believe me, it's going to be fine.] After all, I'm Hikiya - Hachiman]
Under the snow silently looked at me, closed his eyes and thought for a while, and nodded at me [I believe you!]
I smiled [thank you, let's talk about what we need to prepare before solving the incident].
If it goes well, this incident will be resolved perfectly, hopefully. Despair... I won't let despair come to me again! Even if I lose everything I have, I must succeed!
