Chapter Forty-Seven: Draw Your Sword and Strike a Blow
If at the beginning, Shota was dominated by anger and rushed down the slope to kill the first person, then the second and third were to maintain absolute calm.
This does not conflict with his anger, on the contrary, the instinctive restlessness in Shota's body has not been extinguished, but he has learned to use reason to control it in battle.
It's like Iaido, you never know what is hidden in his sword until he draws it, and only when the sword is unsheathed, what is contained in the sheath is life and death.
"I heard you're looking for me?"
Without hiding his body anymore, Shota stood about two meters behind him, and he didn't notice it until he said it.
"Don't come here!"
At this time, the flashlight had already been thrown by him in the panic just now, and there was only a black shadow in front of them in the field of vision of the two.
"You called me, don't you remember?"
Shota's voice was very low, although his body was still standing, his spirit was already too tight, and even the slightest accident could frighten him, and he was now going to focus all his strength on the next sword.
The first time he faced a pistol, he had a sense of fate.
"Boy! I'll kill you! ”
"Then come on."
The voice was still unhurried, as if all he was holding in his hand was a piece of iron, and under the boss's face that was about to collapse, Shota slowly bent down.
"Bastard! You give me ......!!! ”
"Bang!"
The whole world was silent.
"Can you still go? I think the police are coming soon. ”
Before, he took advantage of the darkness to cover Yoshizawa's mouth and hide her in a small puddle, but now when he looked at her, he could only see a vague approximation.
"I have leg cramps and can't walk."
Even though the battle was over, Yoshizawa still didn't recover from the battle just now, wooden knives, pistols, four-on-one, these were unknown corners of her consciousness, looking at the figure standing in front of her, she had never felt that this person was so tall.
"If you don't want to be taken back by the police for questioning, then hurry up."
As he spoke, he pulled her up from the puddle, put her on his shoulder, and began to run wildly, vaguely he had heard the siren.
"Where do you live?"
When he arrived in the city, Shota stood at the intersection and looked left and right.
"The school is closed now, and I have nowhere to go."
She buried her head behind his neck and didn't dare to show her head, because she really hadn't figured out how to face him, and the hands crossed over his chest felt the beads of sweat falling, and she felt a little guilty.
"What a hassle! There is no hot water where I live. ”
There was no way for Shota to take her to where he lived, put her down and turn on the light, and Yoshizawa exclaimed.
"Ah!! You're hurt. ”
It turned out that what was dripping from Shota's face just now was not sweat at all, but blood flowing from his cheeks, and the wound was grazed from the cheekbone, leaving a long gap, and now half of his face was covered with blood.
"Oh! I see, you go and wash later, I'll wash again. ”
I didn't care at all, I just felt that my face was hot, and when Yoshizawa entered the bathroom with some anxiety, Shota sat directly on the ground and gasped for breath.
It's false to say that he wasn't nervous, and when he faced the real gun, he was almost so frightened that he lost the wooden knife and ran away, but there was always a voice in his heart telling him not to be afraid, to meet him! Down with him!
Maybe he was really crazy at the time, he listened to the voice in his heart, and now that he thinks back that sword is the strongest sword he can swing so far, the powerlessness of looking at his hands has disappeared.
He's back.
"Officer Sunset, come and see!"
At this time, the river was already surrounded by police, and since it involved guns, they had to pay attention to it, and the four people fell to the ground and wailed.
"It's Inuzuka and the others."
"It's a few of them again, it's really going to cause us trouble, and we're all going to take them all back."
The middle-aged uncle with a cigarette in his mouth and a scruffy beard is Officer Sunset, he is the oldest and most irresponsible old fritter policeman in this area. So when I saw that it was Inuzuka and a few of them lying on the ground, I kicked them impatiently and prepared to turn around and leave.
Several of them are already frequent visitors to the police station, and they have to go in two or three times a month, and this time he plans to deal with it as a fight.
"Please wait."
"What's wrong?"
Stopped by someone below, Sunset had a look of displeasure on her face.
"Day...... Officer Sunset, there's only Inuzuka and no one else here, and ......"
As he spoke, the young police officer ripped the three of them apart to reveal their chests, and Sunset suddenly dropped the cigarette in his mouth, squatting down and touching the collarbone that had collapsed and turned black and purple, his face a little heavy.
"It's broken!"
"I think so, and looking at the location of the wound I suspect it's a large robe."
"Satsuma Manifestation?"
"It's possible."
As police officers, they also have to train in kendo, but they may not be able to do this precise and powerful blow.
The others all laughed when they saw Officer Sunset as if he had changed into a different person, don't look at him as a hanger on weekdays, but when it comes to kendo, it's different.
"Anything else?"
"I've checked with the other two, one of them is the same, and the other was attacked first and then shot in the arm."
"Someone got shot? What about Inuzuka! ”
As he spoke, Sunset stepped over to Inuzuka's side, clutching his arms in pain and wailing on the ground.
"I don't understand his injuries."
At this time, Inuzuka's right arm was already extremely swollen to the thickness of a calf, and the whole body was black and purple, and the four fingers were also twisted outward.
"This is a bone crack, and the bone of his hand is cut vertically from the inside to cut it off, and he is afraid that this hand will be useless."
As he spoke, Sunset gestured with his hands, and after determining the location of the slash, he stood up and took a deep breath and looked around.
"I think the murderer should be a person, who is armed with a weapon such as a bamboo sword or a wooden knife, and he let this person go first."
He pointed to the first person.
"The most seriously injured he was a large robe slash that directly broke the collarbone, which is exactly in line with Satsuma's style of showing the current, one blow will kill!
After that, he used his tactics to level out the other two, and then faced Inuzuka alone. ”
"Inuzuka with a gun?"
The surrounding policemen all looked at each other, daring to use a wooden knife or bamboo sword to face the person with the gun, this guy was either a kendo supergod guy, or a complete madman.
"I'm sure the two of them must have been facing each other at the time, and the killer took down Inuzuka's pistol with a wooden or bamboo sword, and also broke his hand bones and four fingers."
"What! Which kendo school can do this? ”
"No genre can do it."
"That ......"
Sunset looked at Inuzuka's swollen arms, and her face was not very good.
"The only one who can do this kind of quick knife is Iaido, but such a powerful knife draw blow should be called a knife drawing technique!
Take them all back, and when they come to their senses, I'll interrogate them myself. ”
