Hearing the man's desire for her child, Mrs. Kamiki hugged her baby tighter. She tried to get up to escape, but her body was too weak after giving birth.
"Bastard! Don't hurt my family!"
Driven by adrenaline and the instinct to protect his newborn wife and son, Mr. Kamiki ignored his pain, pushed the geek man against the wall, and restrained him.
"Honey! Go quickly!"
"But—"
"Just leave me, ugh—"
Warning his wife to go quickly, Mr. Kamiki took a punch to his face from the geek man. Despite his swollen and bleeding face, he refused to let go.
"Don't act tough! How dare an ordinary person like you interfere with me! Let go, damn it!"
*✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻*
The geek man continued to throw punch after punch at Mr. Kamiki's face until it turned black and blue.
"Darling..."
Mrs. Kamiki's tears flowed as she saw her husband being beaten until his face was unrecognizable.
Not wanting her sacrifice to be in vain, she forced her weak body to rise and moved away from the bed.
Just standing up, she felt incredible pain. After all, she had just given birth.
"My son..."
Biting her lower lip, Mrs. Kamiki looked at the baby in her arms and took step by step toward the ward door.
Her heart ached hearing the moans of pain from her husband for her and their son's escape.
Unconsciously, her walking speed increased.
In facing life and death situations, the Kamiki family brought forth the hidden potential of humanity.
When threatened, humans unleash potentials they were unaware of before. This occurs because the human body releases adrenaline, which can enhance strength, speed, and endurance.
Adrenaline also makes people more courageous and daring.
In the case of a mother holding a car to protect her almost-hit child, the urge to protect a threatened child triggers the release of adrenaline, making the mother stronger and braver to hold the speeding car.
"Fuck! You're making me angry. Die!"
Seeing Mrs. Kamiki and her baby about to leave the ward, the geek man could no longer stay calm.
His fists were covered in black and blue energy. He then hit Mr. Kamiki until his head spun backward.
"Help, anyone, help us! There's a murderer!"
As soon as she reached the door, Mrs. Kamiki shouted for help with all her might. Seeing her husband being killed in front of her eyes, her heart was filled with sadness.
"That bitch... I have to hurry before the other Sorcerers come. Huh?"
The geek man didn't want to waste any more time. As he approached Mrs. Kamiki, he found Mr. Kamiki still holding onto his waist.
Even after his death, Mr. Kamiki didn't release his grip.
"What is this!"
Realizing that people were starting to gather due to the earlier screams, the geek man took out a folding knife from his pocket.
Enveloping the knife with Cursed Energy, he effortlessly slashed both of Mr. Kamiki's arms like a hot knife through butter. After that, he chased Mrs. Kamiki down the corridor and coincidentally met another man.
"There's a murderer!" Shouted a man checking the situation in the ward.
As a result, people around them fled as quickly as possible. However, the man who shouted was not as lucky. His head was severed by the geek man.
"Leave that bitch and her baby if you don't want to die!" The geek man shouted at a young man helping Mrs. Kamiki escape.
"Madam... Forgive me."
Under the threat of death, the young man turned and fled with guilt, leaving Mrs. Kamiki seeking his help.
After everyone in the corridor fled, only the geek man remained, casually walking toward Mrs. Kamiki.
"Madam, stop running. If you obediently hand over the baby, I promise to let you go."
Feeling the situation under his control, the geek man began to play to satisfy his perverted desires.
He most enjoyed seeing someone's hopeful expression turn into despair when he broke his promise.
"Hah... Hah... Hah..."
Mrs. Kamiki gasped for breath, exhausted. She was not at all swayed by the other party's offer.
(At least I have to let my child be safe)
She continued walking forward without looking back.
"Tsk. You're annoying, bitch. Let me help you reunite with your husband in the afterlife."
The geek man threw the knife in his hand forward.
The knife flew straight, piercing Mrs. Kamiki's back and through her left chest.
"Cough... Eiji... Mom apologizes..."
The baby's face was contaminated with his mother's blood as she coughed up blood.
Mrs. Kamiki lost her vitality quickly. Using the remaining strength she had, she positioned herself to fall so that her child wouldn't be crushed by her or fall to the floor hard.
"Eiji..."
With a weak voice, Mrs. Kamiki kissed her son's forehead for the first and last time. Then, she died.
*Tap... Tap... Tap...*
The geek man arrived, looking at the scene in front of him. There was no sadness on his face, only a twisted smile.
"Well, besides getting money, my reputation will rise in the jujutsu world after I kill the bearer of the Six Eyes."
"Oh, poor baby. You've become an orphan right after birth. Instead of letting you live alone, how about I send you to be with your parents in heaven? If heaven really exists."
With a broad smile on his face, the geek man reached out to snatch the baby still in his mother's embrace.
For him, killing a newborn baby didn't require a weapon or Cursed Energy.
"So, you're the culprit, huh."
A young voice was heard behind him as his hand was only a few centimeters away from the baby.
Before he turned to look, the other party grabbed his collar and threw him to the ground.
"Ghg."
"You!"
Seeing the person attacking him, the geek man's arrogance disappeared in an instant, replaced by fear.
Although the other party was only 12 years old, the white hair and blue eyes were distinctive features that identified him.
Gojo Satoru!
Run!
Run as far as possible!
In his mind, there was no intention to fight.
"You've made me angry," Satoru said emotionlessly.
After arriving at the hospital, he left both members of the Gojo Family, and he went ahead to check the situation.
Satoru didn't use the elevator or climb the stairs; instead, he flew following his intuition.
Upon reaching the ward, he saw the corpse of an adult man whose hands were mutilated, and a nurse whose face turned blue from lack of oxygen.
Then, he saw a woman still wearing patient clothes lying on the floor in a pool of blood while hugging a baby, and a man who looked suspicious.
With his extraordinary brain computing power like a supercomputer, Satoru understood everything that happened in just a few seconds.
"W-Wait, I surrender. Don't kill me."
Knowing there was no chance but surrendering, the geek man begged for mercy for his life.
"Denied. May you be born as a cockroach in your next life."
Satoru struck the left chest of the geek man.
The punch instantly crushed the other party's heart.
The geek man died with wide-open eyes.
After that, Satoru tried to take the baby. However, he found that the woman's hand wouldn't let go.
"Madam, your child will be adopted by the Gojo Family. Rest assured, we will take good care of him."
Perhaps because of Satoru's promise, Mrs. Kamiki's resistance weakened.
"You resemble me a lot."
Satoru observed the baby in his hands.
The baby had white hair and beautiful blue eyes, just like his own.
After a brief observation, Satoru took out his phone and called two members of the Gojo Family.
He informed them of his location and explained the situation.
The Gojo Family would handle the cleanup.
