Now, Mina, turn it!

Kyouko-san shouted from the tray!

Margo, tear gas!

Maru-chan throws a tear gas grenade from outside the window!

Violas subordinates have their hands full with dealing with the sudden gunfire from the side!

They cant stop our car!

The rifles and machine guns roar!

The shouts and barks!

The men shot fall down!

There are people who are fighting behind the cars and the entrance of the buildings too.

Dont fuck with me you idiot! Stop them!

Viola shouts in a loudspeaker

He himself ran to a nearby building.

ThenA white smoke wraps our car.

Faster, Mina!

Hearing Kyouko-sanSensei steps on the accelerator!

Our truck runs through the Chinatown!!!

Kei-chan and I hold our heads and crouched on the rear seat of the truck!

The gunfires and screams are getting away faster!

Kei!Ill never let you escape!!!!

Violas voice echoes from far away.

Ill take the passenger seat. Margo, take care of the two on the back

The teacher stopped the car after we ran about four blocks.

Kyouko-san whos holding at the tray jumped down and entered the car.

Maru-chan went next to us in the backseat

We leaked that Cesario Viola will come to that place!

Kyouko-san said in a slight excitement

Viola says that hes theKing of Los Angeles underground society! However, theres a lot ofKingsin this huge city. Both on the surface and back. If there are colleages from the old days, there are also new emerging power. Obviouslythere are a lot ofkingswho have a grudge against Viola. Thats why we told those guys!

Kyouko-san opens her laptop while saying that.

She probably likes to know the current situation.

Viola is a man who usually disguises himself so nobody knows his identity. Therefore, Viola is always a one-sided assailant. Those hostile to Viola are the ones always killed. But!

Shes reading information on the monitor with sharp eyes.

This time, its the opposite. I told them that Cesario Viola would appear at that location in that time. FurthermoreIt was clearly showed who is Viola in disguise!

Thereforewith Kyouko-sans instructions.

Viola and others were shot by those opposing power.

What now Kyouko-san? Is there a route we can use?

Sensei asks Kyouko-san from the driver seat.

No goodLAPD and the nearby sheriffs began to move. Its hard to escape the town with this car. Especially the inland are dangerous. Once they identify our escape route, we will be ambushed!

If we leave the city and head to Las Vegas or Phoenixitll be a highway in the desert.

If we get caught by the enemy there

Theres nowhere to escape to.

Theres no obstacles in the horizon after all.

Just like when father and mother were killed

Nobody will come to help to a crime in the desert.

That said, if we head to the Mexican coastlinethat would be within Violas influence

Then lets head north and go to San Francisco?

Sensei asks Kyouko-san.

Nolets go back to the villa temporarily

Are we going to hide in Los Angeles?

No wayIm bad at holding up you see

Kyouko-san smiles wryly.

Well be taking plan B!

The expenses will be rising again

Sousukes going to pay for it though right?

Rightroger

Sensei seems to have agreed.

Should we change cars somewhere before going back?

Sensei looks at the car then asked.

This truck has been seen by Viola.

We dont have much time right nowAnyway, lets hurry back

Got it

Our truck starts once again.

Its okay. Theres a lot of pick up trucks in Los Angeles!

Kyouko-san said to reassure us.

Our car passes through Los Angeles like that

Along the way, we bought a hamburger on a drive through and ate it while driving.

Eat even if you have to force yourselfyou need strength in case you need it

Kyouko-san said as she forced the hamburger to my stomach and poured in cola.

Kei-chan seems he cant eat.

If its impossible then at least drink some cola

Maru-chan said and Kei-chan somehow drank the cola with a straw

Are we really going to be fine?

Kei-chan asked Maru-chan.

Will I be saved?

Maru-chan smiled at Kei-chan

In the endI think itll depend on your willpower

Willpower.

If you have the will tosurvivethen you can overcome any hardships

Kei-chan

I honestly think that Im fine dyingbut

Kei-chan looks at me

Id like Onee-chan to live. Id like her to live and be happy!

My heart is wet from my twin brothers words

I want Kei-chan to live. I want Kei-chan to be happy

IIm no good. I can no longer be happy!

Thats not true!!!

Maru-chan grabbed our hands.

Both of you! You are worrying at each otherthats good!

Her beautiful eyes look at us.

The sister for her brothers sakeand the brother for her sisters sakesurvive with all your life. You have thewill Put that in your chest firmly!

Maru-chan pats her chest.

Its not for your sakeif you think its for someone elsethen you should be able to find resolve!

Yes, understood

I replied

ButKei-chan

He just looked down in silence

Thenthe car returns to the villa we left this morning

Lets use that one

Kyouko-san points at the boat anchored in the bay ahead of the villa.

Well reach the sea with that and be picked up by a big cruiser. An acquaintance of mine is supposed to be sailing a ship today. Minas acquainted with Joan Slim right?

Yeshe was introduced by Kouzuki-sama. When he came to Japan, we sent one of ourwomento his hotel

Well have Joan help usthat mans cruiser is as good as a luxury hotel. Well have him take us to San Francisco Better, we can even go to Hawaii!

That seems to be expensive

We can just push that to Sousuke

Got itThen, Ill contact Mr. Slim

Sensei takes out a phone from the drivers seat.

Margo, prepare the boat with me

Roger

Maru-chan opens the door and gets off the truck.

You twowhats wrong? Feeling unwell?

Looking at Kei-chan who has a pale faceKyouko-san asked.

I-Im fine

Kei-chan answered, but

We cant get to the boat immediately so rest in the villa for a while!

Kyouko-san said then gave the key to me.

Look after him

Yes

Thenwe got off the truck

Kei-chan and I held hands

Are you okay, Kei-chan?

U-Un. Onee-chan

Im worried

Ships on the sea shake a lot.

In our state right now

Will Kei-chan be able to hold out?

Anywaylets go to the living room. Ill prepare warm tea

I pull Kei-chan

Opening the door to the living room

I thought my heart would stop

Heey, were barging in!

Whos there is

Rosalind Orlando drinking tea

ThenThe one sitting opposite to Rosalind

As expected, you are mine. This must be fate!

A man in white suit

If I recallit was Shirasaka Sousuke

Mr. Shirasaka told me this. This is where you were hiding

Rosalind said with a mean smile

Dont worryI didnt tell my brother anything. Ill be killed if I made a bad report!

I see

Normally, Rosalind is supposed to act together with Cesario Viola all the time

She didnt show up in Chinatown

She knows this hideout

Zubabababa!

Tatun, tatoun, tatoun!!!

I hear gunshots from outside the villa.

Weve caught the twins! I dont mind if you kill those outside!

Rosalind shouts at the transreceiver

It was a trap.

Are you really sure? Arent those outside your friends?

Rosalind asks Shirasaka Sousuke.

No way. Those people are from Brazil, my enemies. I would appreciate it if you can handle it here

Shirasaka Sousuke said while smiling.

WellI dont mind whatever it is

Rosalind looks at us

She took out a pistol from her handbag

She aimed it at me

Uwaaaa!

Kei-chan!

The frightened Kei-chan embraced me.

His cold sweat flows in my body.

Ill take Kei home. Actually, Id like to shoot you in this place but if I dont bring you back, my brother will kill me!

Then, Ill take the sisteryou dont mind that do you?

Shirasaka looks at me with vulgar eyes.

YeahIll give you a discount from the original price

This is what they callWIN -WIN situationdont they?

Shirasaka smiled.

The gunshots outside has stoppedit seems that its all done

Kyouko-san and others

Kei-chan and I despairs

At that moment!

Bashu!!!

Kyouko-san jumps in the window!!

What!!!

Rosalind aimed the pistol in panic and Kyouko-san kicked it off.!

The black pistol danced in the air and rolled on the floor.

Six subordinates in all?

Kyouko-san glares at Rosalind.

Rosalind looks at the handbag and the pistol on the floor.

She must still have a weapon in her handbag.

Thats right, what about it?

At the moment Rosalind said that!

Youre really a liar!!

Kyouko-san aims at the window she rushed into

She throws an iron kabutowari!!

Busha!

Gyaaaaaaaaa!!

Rosalinds follower hiding behind the window spouts blood from his forehead and blown away!!

Thats seven!

Suddenly, the door opens!

Rosalinds subordinate held its gun!

But, Kyouko-san slipped into the mans foot!

Then she kicked up his crotch!!

Gueeeeeeeeeee!!

The man who has his vital point crushed collapsed in agony.

Eight!

A man screamed from outside the window!

Kyouko-sanI knocked down the two!

Maru-chan said.

Thats tenis there someone still hiding?

Kyouko-san looks at Rosalind with bloodshot eyes.

Just what are you?

Rosalind mutters in a frightened voice.

You know it dont you? Im a BrazilianKyoukoDothnomechey!

YoureKyouko Messer?

Rosalinds surprised

There are those who call me that too!

Rosalind looks at Shirasaka

Why didnt you tell me that it wasKyouko Meser?!

I-Is she that famous?!

Youre an idiot!

Rosalind insults Shirasakaand Kyouko-san

SorrySousuke is a real idiot. Hes helpless you know!

Thenshe looks at us

Lets go and escape!

Shirasaka shouts at Kyouko-san

Waitbring me too, Kyouko. If I get left behindCesario Viola will kill me!

Kyouko-san spit on the floor

Get out quickly Ill have you pay all of the expenses here. You dont mind that do you?

Y-Yeahwell of courseby the way

Shirasaka looked at us

Since Ill be paying upits okay to think that I own these children dont I?

Kyouko-san slaps Shirasakas face!

Shirasakas large body was blown off to the back of the wall

W-What are you doing!

You seeits impossible for humans to own another!

Kyouko-sans eyes were burning in anger.

Ill take responsibility for these twoI wont let you touch them even with a single finger!

Shirasaka looks up at Kyouko-san with eyes of hatred.

I dont mind it even if you die here, Ill just report it toKakka

Kytouko-sans hand has the kabutowari shining as she hold it.

Wait, Kyouko!

Then

SuddenlyRosalind jumps to her handbag!

She grabbed the pistol from inside

Onee-chan, its dangerous!!

Kei-chan jumped in

Kei-chan whos been pale all this time

Kei-chan whos trembling

He picked up the pistol on the floor!

Rosalind aims the pistol towards me

Like hell you will!!

Kyouko-san throws the Kabutowari towards Rosalind

Agaaa!!

The iron lump hits Rosalinds left chest and her body rotates

But still

She pulled the trigger of the pistol

Doguuuuun!!!

The muzzle blows fire!

Then

Kei-chans belly

Kei-chan rushes towards Rosalind

While holding down his wounded stomach!

Then.

He jumped at Rosalind!

Rosalinds second bullet went through Kei!

Dogyuuaan!

Kei-chans body jumps up!

Kei-chan clenched his teeth

He shot the gun towards Rosalind!!

Jyohyuuuuun!

A hole opens in Rosalinds stomach!

Rosalind drops the gun from the acute pain

Kei-chan then fell on the floor.

Slowly

In slow motion

I screamed in tears.

I can do nothing but cry.

Rosalind opens her mouth filled with blood.

Dammitwhy did it hit Kei?The sisters the one that shouldve died

She drags bloody self to the handbag.

Kyouko-san suddenly takes a stance.

I dont have any weapons. Dont worry. I just want to smoke

Saying thatRosalind took out a cigarette from her handbag.

Then she put one on her mouth and set it on fire.

FuuuuuThats calming

His body is getting colder every second
