"Don't come over yet. Throw away the sword you're holding!"
"Clank - ding! -"
Kurumi was still smiling. The stainless steel sword in her right hand had been thrown to the side, making a loud noise as it collided with the ground. In the silent night sky, it was especially loud. Not far away, many zombies had noticed this and began to move slowly.
"Big brother, is this okay?" Kurumi spread out her hands and turned around to show that she really did not have a weapon on him.
The man stared at the bottom of her pleated flower skirt, trying to look inside. He did not see anything else besides the white skin and the black stockings. His heart itched just thinking about it.
"Let me say it first. If you come over and get tied up by me, I will let go of this girl! But your bus belongs to me!" The man looked at the small bus with the words "Fujimi Academy Advanced Academy" printed on it, and his heart started to thump.
He wanted to obtain as many benefits from it as he could. This was one of the seven sins of humanity, greed.
Before Kurumi could answer, Takashi Komuro spoke first, "The bus is out of gas!"
"You little prick, didn't you go inside to get the money? Hurry up and fill it with fuel! Do you need me to remind you!"
"That's true, but we can talk this through..."
"Don't come over!"
Just as Takashi Komuro began walking towards the school bus, he suddenly turned around and took a few steps towards the man. He was still thinking about the possibility of dealing with him.
Unexpectedly, the man was extremely sensitive. Just as he took a few steps forward, he gripped a knife and left another wound on Rei's neck!
"Don't hurt Rei! I'll go and fill it for you." Takashi Komuro walked to the side of the car, picked up the nozzle, and began to refuel the bus.
"And you!" The man shouted in the direction of Saeko Busujima, "Find me a rope and tie her up for me! Otherwise, I won't let this girl go!"
"Isn't it kind of hard to find a rope right now?"
"That not my problem. Hurry up! You don't have much time! Little demoness, stay there and don't move. I have plenty of time to dote on you tonight!"
The man kept using his knife to threaten everyone. Saeko Busujima did not dare to act rashly. She looked at Kurumi. Seeing her nod, she turned to Kohta Hirano, "Kohta, come with me."
...
Behind the school bus, in the blind spot of the man's vision, Saeko Busujima lowered his voice, "Kohta, can you hit him with your pneumatic nail gun?"
Kohta Hirano frowned, "No, he's too far away. It would be more or less the same if it were a pistol. Although Takashi has it, it's hard for me to attack while that man has his guard up."
"Does that mean that we can only let Kurumi take the risk?"
"Although it is a little embarrassing for a man to say such things, the truth is indeed like this. Believe in senior sister Tokisaki. She won't do anything she is not confident in."
Saeko Busujima became silent. If it were only herself, she would choose to take the risk without hesitation, if it were the first friend she had ever made... She became a little hesitant.
Gritting her teeth, she took the nail gun from Kohta Hirano's hand. Ignoring the latter's reluctant eyes, she forcibly removed the white tape on it, walked to Kurumi, and shouted to the man, "Is this enough?"
The man looked at Kurumi's slender and white limbs and assumed she had no strength to break free. He nodded at Saeko Busujima, "You have to tighten it more!".
"Kurumi, are you confident?" Saeko Busujima whispered into her ear.
"Don't worry. I don't take risks."
...
Kurumi also turned around to reveal her tightly bound arms. Her white skin was covered in red marks. "Is this enough?"
"Walk over slowly. No one else moves!" His expression was fierce, and he kept propping up his courage. He was originally just a gangster who had not learned any martial arts.
He relied on extorting students and getting the government's handouts to continue his days.
That was until the Cataclysm. What happened this afternoon was inconceivable to him. At first, he was afraid and ran away. Later on, it turned into excitement, and he began smashing things everywhere. No one came to stop him, even the cops didn't come. Other than the monsters, this world was basically heaven to him!
Today, he threatened a group of students again, but this time he even got to feet the soft touch of a student in his arms. Although there was a smell of blood, she was still a top-quality good! Moreover, it was a beautiful female student!
The white and tender skin, the delicate face, and the black silk, tsk, tsk, tsk, he couldn't find a word to describe it. His primary school language teacher must have died early.
His eyes almost popped out as he watched Kurumi walking over step by step, but the strength in his arm did not relax at all, which foiled Rei Miyamoto's escape plan.
Halfway there, Takashi Komuro and others saw a fruit knife slip out of Kurumi's sleeve! It was caught by two slender jade-like fingers accurately. With a twist, the white tape was torn apart!
Saeko Busujima suddenly started to doubt herself. She did not notice a knife hidden in Kurumi's sleeve earlier! Was she blind?
Unsurprisingly, it was taken out from Kurumi's inventory. It was the fruit knife she found in her "home" on the first day. In order to not arouse suspicion, she had to use this method to pull it out.
With a slight exertion, her two points of strength easily broke the tape and freed her. The fruit knife danced in Kurumi's hand, causing the people behind her to jump in fright. Master, how do you still have the leisure to play with the knife. Is this considered being bold?
"Hey, did you know that those monsters are actually just sick and can be cured ---"
Moving closer and closer to Rei Miyamoto, Kurumi revealed an innocent smile, causing the man to be dazzled. "Don't joke around! Don't try to lie to me, you little demon! How can those man-eating monsters just be sick? I'm not brainless!"
"Then have you been to the hospital? Let me tell you. Of the patients in the hospital, some have already been treated. Don't you want your family to become normal again? "
Unconsciously, Kurumi's charm spread out. The closer they got, the more the breeze blew. The man could smell a fragrance from it. Deciding that the expression on Kurumi's face was not fake, he asked, "Really? Can they really return to normal?"
His soft tone made Kurumi smile even more, like the whisper of a demon, seducing the soul astray. "Of course, if you threaten them with me as a hostage and then you tell them about the situation, well, you will be using soft and hard methods. They will accept your request ---"
If Kurumi looked at her status panel at this point, she would be surprised to find that there was a complex red pattern under the other attributes. The word "Charm", written in a minuscule font, was present at the bottom...
Her wine-red eye became deeper. The man felt like he had fallen into it, but he instinctively did not want to resist. He stammered, "Really? If it is really like this, I will make a confession! Please save me. I really don't want to do this!"
Snot and tears flowed out as he spoke, and his arms unconsciously relaxed. However, Rei Miyamoto still did not take the opportunity to escape.
She was one of the first to bear the brunt of Kurumi's charm! At that moment, she too believed in the 'truth' Kurumi spoke of. She was too convincing!
Takashi Komuro and the others were a little confused. This script was kind of strange. Why was he crying? Kurumi was always kind of scary, but this was something else...
Just as the man let go of Rei Miyamoto and began to wipe his tears with his hand, a light flashed in Kurumi's eyes. The force far beyond ordinary people instantly tore through the tape, and the blade in her hand slashed towards his neck!
