Chapter 19: Hunting and retaliation (pt.1)

Feng Yu Chen is standing outside the Takagis quarters waiting for them to end their argument. Hes here because he wanted to sniff out the hunter by borrowing and looking over the list of personnel here.

He might be able to find some clue as to whos the hunter this way.

The sound coming from inside slowly dimmed down and Yurimo came out, shes startled at him for being here but she quickly recovered and smiled amicably at him.

You here to find Saya? Hmm.. I dont know how to say this.

He noticed something underneath her tone as he blinked.

Maa, you can say it, what cant you say?

Yuriko pursed her lips before continuing.

Ahaha, youre a strong man arent you? Its a bit overbearing but I am doing the as well so I guess its okay. I hope that you will look after Takagi in our stead after this.

He shrugged her off.

Wouldnt she be better off with you people? Why force her on us, you have water, electricity and enough supplies to probably endure this one out, wouldnt it be safer staying here?

Yes, thats our thoughts as well but you see Saya has made her resolve, in this troubled world there is no longer a safe haven on earth, only those that would kill and fight on their own volition stand the biggest chance of surviving, our Saya is a strong girl, just like my husband.

Yuriko smiled at him.

Nodding hishead he continued.

Be at ease madam, as her senpai its our duty to look after our kouhai. Frankly I think it might be better if you ask Takashi seeing as theyre childhood friends.

Yuriko nodded.

Hmm, you have point but the thing is, Takashi can be a bit hot blooded you see, he loses his cool sometimes and that might endanger her at which point its your turn to shine, I know this request is kinda

He lifted his hand to cut her off.

Nn, I understand, you dont need to request anything of me, shes a comrade in my book and I will automatically protect my comrades.

That really puts me at ease, if theres anything you need of me just ask and I will do my best

She bowed and then took her leave.

Come in, I already know youre out there

Saya called out to him from within the house.

He walked in after nodding, he then sat on one of the sofa there while praising the place.

Ah, what a fancy place, nice views, luxurious manor, nice decors, and whats this a leather sofa, not bad.

Che

She pushed her glases while continuing.

Senpai probably already made plans to leave here right?

Naturally, thats why Im here to say adieu

He chuckled while nodding to her statement.

Liar, you wont act like this if you were really leaving, say it, why are you really here? If you dont say it out loud I cant say I can offer much of an assistance.

She curled her lips at him.

He self deprecatingly laughed.

ah ah, Saya saw through me, yeap Im here to ask your help on something, I wish to borrow a list of name of everyone here, the more comprehensive the better.

She raised her eyebrow at him.

Whats this senpai? Do you have enemies here?

He turned stern immediately.

Im actually a government official sent by China to do some surveillance intel ops, I got tagged by some forces working for the Japs and I feel like the guy has been on my tail for some time now, I want to identify this person.

Spy? I dont care anymore, youre good with your hands sure but I can still tell youre lying. Maa, I will give you the list later, have fun with that

Helplessly he nodded.

Why cant you cooperate a bit here, say something like you will lodge an accusation against me or something, go with the flow

She rolled her eyes at him.

Che, who has the time to play games with you, plus would a country still be concerned with another country when theyre all busy dealing with the outbreak? I should guess the government has shut down by now and along with the passage of time their power would corrode. The armies and the group that has banded up make the rules now.

And that leads to the subject I am abou tto discuss with you, I have no mood to stay in this place, this isnt a place that will exist in the long run, we should leave. In this chaotic world where could one find a safe haven? Thats why the only thing we can do now is leave while its still possible.

He nodded.

Since youve clearly made up your mind I guess we best prepare to leave, theres no time to be wasted here, but I do still have some business to settle, I will have to impose the matter regarding the name list on you.

She nodded, she could feel killing intent coming off of him, probably against the enemy in his mind right? But who is it?

..

In a bit, Saya passed the list onto him and he took the list over to Zi Yue Lings room.

Lets start searching, we have to crack down on this fellow, I dont like being on the receiving end.

He threw the list onto the bed.

She blinked her eyes when she saw the list.

I had expected you would go find Saya for the list, now it looks like we might be 2 steps ahead, lets begin. Its a long list so finding him might not be easy, but we do have the time.

And so the two started doing their homework.

The 2 narrowed the list of suspect down to 3, 2 with a gun and a normal youth always with a knife.

One of the two is armed with T95 rifle, he might be the hunter since their gun is one of the default weapons.

Zi Yue Ling pointed out.

He nodded but then he looked at the youth with a knife.

I think its him, the system also offered another option a weapon of 10 strength, any weapon fitting this standard can be chosen.

Then its these two, whats our plan?

Hehe, now that were clear, lets test our hypothesis, tonight we strike starting with the knife user.

She raised her eyebrows at him.

If were wrong?

Wrong?

He snickered.

Kill, we kill them still, Big daddy () have no favorability with some chump in Japan, theyre both japs. I say serve them right, the knife guy gets it first, I have a gut feeling its him! (Tl: sometimes I wish the author would keep their prejudice hidden or at least not so blatant. Then again, not the first time I have seen Jap being portrayed as villains.)

Nn, lets do as you say.

She nodded to the suggestion.
