Piero went in the House Quattrocchi, only to see the surroundings was under renovation cause of the attack. He came to visit Teodora but unfortunately, she is currently gone for now. He heaved a deep sigh and decided to give the flowers he brought to Marco's tomb. He sat on the grassy ground and stared at his friend's tomb, "If you are watching right now, you can laugh all you want okay?! I cried on your death.. well f*ck! Once I'll see you, I will hug you real tight and yeet you out!" he yelled while looking at the sky before putting on a wide smile.
"Now, Salvatore, how will you assassinate Luciano?" Dante asked while sitting on the ground.
"I can use the same poison I used to Delta. Then just watch him die." Salvatore pondered as he started rubbing his chin.
Currently, they are staying in a hotel room at the nearby the 5th Branch's Cafe. "But, does he have any defense? Or maybe plan if there is someone to kill him unexpectedly?" Wilhevit asked while eating a potato chip.
"Just by deducing, maybe he has one since Salvatore tried to kill him. Let's see.. I don't really know, maybe he has an antidote." Dante sighed. "Wait... If homunculi exists.. is it possible that clones too?" he asked.
"Well, if you don't know, House Quattrocchi has a knack for cloning people. Still I don't know if Luciano knows how." Salvatore stated.
"Luciano is known for his stalking and hacking skills, there's a possibility that he knows how to clone people." Wilhevit muttered.
"Come to think of it, he was supposed to be Giusto's partner in crime. But I don't know what happened, the two didn't continued on talking to each other at all. Giusto sticked on working with Nunzio though." Dante explained.
"Oh right Dante, I have something to ask you.." Salvatore said as he laid his eyes on Dante.
"What is it?" the latter asked cluelessly.
"Is Donatello Guerra your brother?"
Dante's face distorted into despair he looked down, Wilhevit had noticed the change and she looked at him.
"Yes.. we are blood-brothers." he answered while clenching his fists.
"Uhh... Did I triggered you or something..?" Salvatore looked at him worriedly.
"Nothing, it's just, my blood is boiling whenever I hear his name." Dante stated before smiling at Salvatore. Wilhevit had noticed the grim and the thirst for vengeance glinting in his eyes. Salvatore was intimidated for a bit, "Uhh.. so, back to the topic.. How can we corner Luciano? Do we need Gamma's help?" he asked the two.
"Let me and Wil explain everything to Gamma. Then let's plan it." Dante stated.
Rosamaria and Sula can be seen sitting under the tree, the two bonded for a bit while braiding each other's hair. "Rosa, your hair is beautiful.." Sula commented while tying Rosamaria's hair, the latter smiled softly.
"So, I haven't asked you this but, what was the crime you committed??" Sula asked before sitting right infront of Rosamaria.
"I was framed for murder that happened 7 years ago. So, how about you?" Rosamaria asked.
"I murdered the person who raped my sister." Sula answered, "I was drowned in anger, eventually I saw the guy and murdered him using my own fists." she added while looking down.
"Well.. you did it for justice. I couldn't blame you.." Rosamaria pats Sula while smiling.
"I maybe justified my sister's honor, yet what I did was wrong.. I admit that I did the wrong thing, and I accepted that long ago. All I wanted is to redeem myself.." Sula responded with a smile, "You kind of look like my sister, you two has the same hair color to be honest." she added.
"I don't know how to respond..but thanks I guess..." Rosamaria smiled.
"When I'll get out of here, I will hug the one I love, which is my sister and my niece.. how about you, Rosa??" Sula lays down while looking at the sky.
"I.. will continue doing my work. I don't really have anyone to hug though. My mother, bestfriend and the one I like died. I don't know who is my father, I don't even know if the guy who courts me really like me, I feel like he is just using me to compel himself." Rosamaria answered while looking down.
"I-i'm sorry, condolence even though it's late.." Sula looked at Rosamaria.
"It's fine.. I will die anyways, if I am deemed as guilty. I wonder how will they kill me.." Rosamaria pondered.
"Hey, don't think like that. You still have hope you know!" Sula tried to cheer her new friend up. "I'm getting tired.. to be honest, I longed to see Fausta again... Or Alicia.. my mom and the person I like.." she stated lifelessly.
"You see, this is not how people should live their life, the people who died had passed their hopes on the people who are currently living. Your friends, your mom and the person you like had passed all of their hopes on you. Live and live!" Sula smiled.
"Uhh.. Ms. Acerbi, someone had visited you." the policeman jumped in to their conversation, "Oh! Ursula, I see, you are cheering the newbie up. We polices thank you a lot!" the policeman smiled at Sula, "Welcome Mr. Travis!" Sula smiled.
Rosamaria stood up and let Me. Travis put shackles on both of her hands, the two proceeded to the visiting area, only to see a Filippo and a black haired man waiting for her.
"Ohh.. Filippo, I assume you are here representing as my lawyer. Also, care to introduce the man sitting beside you?" Rosamaria smiled before sitting on the chair.
"Delta, he is Fuuniku Shinigai, your father." Filippo introduced the man beside him.
"Oh.. I'm so delighted I finally saw my father.." Rosamaria muttered with a hint of sarcasm. Fuuniku only looked away, embarrassed that after 23 years, he finally approached his daughter.
"I have a way to win the case." Filippo stated before pulling out a manga out of his briefcase.
"Just give up Fil and let me die." Rosamaria stated tiredly.
"I shall not allow that." Fuuniku finally spoke.
"I didn't even asked for your help, I stopped calling and seeking for you after all these years. I mean, why bother to come here?" Rosamaria shrugged her shoulders.
"I see, you can hate me as long as you can. But I won't let you die, I can't redeem myself, I still need to be a better father to you.. please let me.. I'm begging.." Fuuniku looked down. Rosamaria only looked at her father, "What? Are you gonna use me like what Ortensia did? Are you going to make me as the heiress of the House Shinigai? Well no, I won't let that happen." she stated coldly.
"Still, Delta.. The Branch 1 is waiting for you..also, how about Letizia? Pio and Carlotta? Beta I and Beta II? Gamma?" Filippo tried to convince Rosamaria.
"Hmm.. okay then, try to win this case. Let's see if you guys can." Rosamaria said nonchalantly.
"We, can win this. Just tell the truth." Filippo insisted seriously.
"Only you guys." Rosamaria smiled unnervingly.
