Chapter 527: The Kid is Just That—A Being Who Will Believe Anything Adults Say!

Chin Pirako had forgotten how many times she had charged at Kawaki and how many times she had been kicked away, but now, it seemed all she wanted was to kill the man in front of her and that vixen.

The heavy rain continued to fall, splashing on Chin Pirako's face, who seemed to have just passed out. Struggling to open her eyes, Chin Pirako tried hard to see Jirochou lying beside her, a naive smile on his face as he held a broken smoking pipe, but no breath left his body.

"It wasn't supposed to be like this..." Large tears mixed with the rain rolled down Chin Pirako's face. "The outcome I envisioned wasn't supposed to be like this. I wanted Jirochou to take over this town, so why? Why did it turn out like this... why..."

"Ah, lying on the ground in this rain can easily lead to a cold, you know~" Kawaki's voice suddenly came from above Chin Pirako. "After all, you're kind of our benefactor, and it would really be troubling for us if you got sick like this~."

Chin Pirako tried hard to open her eyes wide, staring venomously at Kawaki.

"Kid, you don't really think that everyone will be played around by you, did you?" Kawaki, holding an umbrella, squinted and showed a sinister smile that looked very ominous to Chin Pirako. "You... are still too green. Do you think the thing binding these two guys to this town is the same? All for a promise with some dead man? Who said? Why would you think that? That silver-haired perm may be, but maybe your Dad isn't~ In fact, such a promise might not even exist~."

"No... it can't be!" Chin Pirako gritted her teeth like a cornered dog. "Jirochou... Jirochou..."

"So, how was that person killed?" Kawaki smiled and asked back. "If that were really the case, you wouldn't think this old dog could actually bring himself to kill that person, would you? Don't you ever wonder? If there really was such a promise, how could he possibly kill that person?"

"Jirochou... must have had his reasons!"

"If that's what you think, then I won't say anymore," Kawaki shrugged, then his tone became ice cold, "Next, it's time to send you on your way. I had thought about chatting more since the villains in TV shows do that. But since you're not interested, there's no need..."

"I... must kill you and that stinking fox!" Chin Pirako gritted her teeth and spat out hatefully. "Even if I become a vengeful spirit, I'll come back!"

"Indeed, it seems you have nowhere else to go but to become a lonely ghost," Kawaki spread his hands and smirked deliberately, "After all, even if you went to hell, those there would devour you completely since you're the ones to blame for their plight."

"You bastard—!!" Chin Pirako lost her reason once again, but this time, she didn't even have the strength to stand up.

"Oh, one more thing I forgot to tell you," Kawaki said as if suddenly remembering, "Didn't you say you wanted to help your Dad conquer the world? Don't worry; that message was properly delivered to Edo Castle. The bakufu took great interest in your family after that. Not just here, but that flower field thing, too; they're paying close attention. By now... the bakufu's troops might have already reached the flower field. Perhaps it has truly become a proper flower field now..."

Chin Pirako made no sound, then gritted her teeth and used all her strength to get up from the ground, emotionlessly knelt towards the town hall, and bowed deeply.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Chin Pirako just mechanically repeated the bowing motion, murmuring apologies over and over.

"And... one last thing before I send you to your dad," Kawaki stood up, holding his umbrella, and smiled slyly, "Actually... everything I just said was a lie."

"Eh?" Chin Pirako suddenly paused, lifting her blood-streaked forehead.

"Revenge prank a huge success!!" Shinpachi and Kagura came out holding a banner that read, 'An eye for an eye, the prank on Chin Pirako was a great success!'

"That, was it all recorded? Tama?" Kawaki asked towards the door.

"Yes, it's all recorded, Kawaki-sama," Tama switched off the camera mode.

"Really, this girl is incredible, believing such a flawed story," Kawaki turned away, chuckling, "What an idiot."

At this moment, Chin Pirako still hadn't come to terms with it.

"Cough!" Jirochou spat out a black pill from his mouth and then stood up. "So she's still just a kid, huh? Adults only need to say a few words to make them believe anything, this naive kid. Looks like I need to educate her properly. But speaking of which, lying in the rain with injuries for half a day, this old man really can't handle it anymore."

"Where did you get these black death-faking pills?" Gintoki got up, puzzled, and looked at the black pill in his hand.

"Got it from Zura," Kawaki shrugged and replied.

"Dad..." Pirako murmured.
