Chapter 162 - Deserve It

Now that the boy was safe. Narukami shifted his attention to the young man. Should he approach the boy, it would make things complicated as he did not know who the boy was.

With the men in black collapsed. If he came to the boy's side, some people might connect the dots and find out it was Narukami's doing, which was something he had to avoid.

However, Narukami could not leave him alone just like that, right?

"Someone stop this man! The woman yelled for help. She was desperate as her vision was moving at rapid speed in the crowd.

Though, her call for help was in vain as everyone avoided her eyes.

"Who wants to help a piece of garbage like you?" The young man asked as he mocked.

"Everyone, listen. This woman is more than garbage, she is a leech for this society and has to be erased. She joined a dangerous gang and was involved in the illegal weapon trade, drugs, human trafficking, and robbery.

"As a good civilian, I have the right to capture her, right? And you might think since I'm a good guy, shouldn't I give her to the police? Not judge her sins myself?" He paused as he walked around the woman.

"No, no. You get that wrong. Although I call myself a good civilian. That does not mean I have to do what must be done.

"I mean, you guys have done some petty criminal acts, right? Like stealing your parents' money for something you want."

What he was saying was that most good civilians sometimes did something bad.

"Hey, do you have any last words?" The young man asked as he halted his steps and pointed the barrel on her forehead.

The woman's lips were quivering as she was terrified. Tears came out of her eyes as she lightly shook her head.

"Please, no. I still want to live. What do you want? I'll give you anything! Money, my body, anything! But just please let me live," she said as her voice was shaky as though she was cold.

"That's what your victim say but did you hear their words?" His eyes turned sharp as his voice went cold. Killing intent spilled and locked onto her.

Her pupils were shaking as she felt death was just around the corner.

"You know what, if you do what I tell you, I may let you live," said the young man as he changed his mind and retracted his gun

The woman's eyes sparkled as she silently heaved a sigh of relief. She hurriedly said, "Do tell!"

"Get naked," ordered the young man in a calm voice.

"What?" The woman almost doubted her ears.

"Let me repeat, it seems your ears have problems and are already old despite your appearance. I want you to take off your clothes and show your naked body to everyone here."

The woman wore a shocked expression and forgot to breathe. He can't be serious, she probably thought to herself.

"I don't want to do it!" The woman opposed what the young man told her to do. It's simply too much!

"Do you realize the situation you are in? Don't you think negotiating is rather, no, quite impossible for you?" Said The young man.

"Even so, naked in public is just too much!"

Bang!

The woman's shoulder slightly convulsed as she was startled. Slowly shifting her eyes to the ground, she saw a bullet hole. Her legs went weak almost immediately as she collapsed to the ground.

"Try speaking again and the next thing that happens is a bullet in your head," said the young man playfully and casually. He seemed to be calm despite being about to kill someone.

Not nervous or terrified. He looked enjoying this.

"You're a monster…" the woman murmured.

"I don't mind if you call me that. So, do you still want to do what I tell you? I'll let you live if you can last five minutes without anything on."

As soon as he said that, the crowds whispered to one another. Possibly guessing if the woman is going to do it or not.

The majority thought the woman would do it and a tiny amount thought otherwise.

Abruptly, a ruckus happened within the crowd. Everyone shifted their gaze to the source as they heard rapid footsteps as though someone was running.

Anyone could not depict the figure as the latter was running so fast that they only saw a man's silhouette, running at the young man.

Before everyone could realize what was going on, a loud thud like something heavy fell to the ground entered everyone's ears.

They hurriedly looked at the thing that just fell and was perplexed. It was a pistol!

Following that was another thud and shriek as someone in pain!

Instantly looked away from the pistol and to the thud. They saw the young man was pinned down by someone.

It was none other than Narukami.

"Ouch! Ouch!" The young man felt his arms were stretching and slowly, his bones were separating.

"Who are you?" The young man weakly asked.

"Who I am doesn't matter. You miss the important part here. So, why do you want to kill her?" Narukami asked without any emotion in his tone.

While he was being asked, the woman was surprised and delighted. Finally, someone saved her! She probably thought.

"Um… thank you," thanked the woman as her voice was soft.

Narukami glanced at her, "what did you do to him that he wants to kill you badly?"

"I… don't know. I don't even recognize him. He suddenly pointed his gun at me and said a bunch of nonsense."

Narukami retracted his gaze to the young man, "You said something happened in Star's Bank a few years ago? Speak, tell me what happened and why did you do this."

With his face pinned against the floor, it was rather hard to speak, "Fine, fine! But let me go first! It's hard to speak like this!"

Narukami fell silent as he was thinking if he should do that or not. A second later, he let go of the young man as Narukami get up from the ground.

In the next instant, the young man saw an opening and grabbed a small knife out of his black, inner jacket and quickly slash Narukami.

Narukami dodged it easily and karate chopped the young man's right arm. He let go of the dagger as he felt like his arm was broken as it was twisted in a direction it should not.

One could hear the noise of bones being broken.

It was not 'felt' at this point. It did happen. Narukami just broke his arm with a simple karate chop which looked weak but was not!

"Aaaaa!" The young man shouted as he touched his broken arm.

"What are you trying to do?" Narukami sighed softly as he was standing and looked down at the young man.

After he shouted, he then collapsed to the ground as he rolled to the left and right, still shouting.

Shortly thereafter, he stopped as he moved his legs up and down frantically. This time, however, his yell was more deafening.

Some people had to close their ears.

"Aaaaa!"

Narukami approached the young man and bent his torso as his head was in the same direction as the young man.

"Shut up or I'll cut your throat," said Narukami rather casually. It was more terrifying than a savage expression, though.

The man hurriedly shut his mouth as his face was pale.

"Now speak but if you did anything funny, it will be your head next."

The young man nodded his head vigorously.

Telling the long story, it went something like this. The woman robbed Star's Bank and killed his sister. Right now, he was seeking revenge.

"I see, so that's the case. You want to kill her. Then go ahead," said Narukami as he walked away.

This left the crowd stupefied. What just happened? Didn't Narukami rush here to help her?

"Hey, wait!" The woman was flustered as she instantly called out Narukami and at the same time reached out her hand in Narukami's way.

Abruptly, Narukami halted his steps and turned his body around.

"However, you did say you'll let her live if she takes off her clothes, right? I'll be the judge of that. Lady, I don't know who you are but you've done some horrendous acts in the past, and killing you is probably the best thing this young man did in his life."

"You believed his words? There is no proof I've robbed a bank or joined a gang!"

"That tat behind your right ear said otherwise," said Narukami.

The woman quickly moved her hand as she placed it behind her ear.

"Why don't you show it to the crowd?" Narukami suggested and the crowd was curious as they whispered.

With the enormous people saying at the same time albeit with a low volume, the train became crowded.

"Let me help you," said Narukami as he came to the woman's side and moved her long, brown hair away from her ear.
