Chapter 635 - The Final Bait (2/2)

“Then, who was it?” Kuroda Kiyotaka asked.

“The Thousand-Faced Killer, Xiao Han,” Anbei informed him.

That name confused Kuroda Kiyotaka. He did not know who that was, but he could only guess that it was the person responsible for the destruction of the genetic engineering research base.

“He is a super fighter that the Hua Nation had sent. He has the ability to disguise himself and can change his appearance at will. We had originally thought that we could identify him with his fingerprints. But he can peel off a person’s skin and use it as if it belonged to him. The only foolproof identification method is to conduct DNA testing. Otherwise, no one would be able to tell the difference.”

“He killed everyone else?” Kuroda Kiyotaka asked. At that point, he was fearful, and it showed in his eyes.

Anbei said, “Other than Takahara Kei, everyone else had been killed by him. Takahara Kei gave up on himself and committed suicide. He took sleeping pills after spending three days with his daughter.”

“Then, why are you here?”

Kuroda Kiyotaka no longer had the calm expression that he had earlier on.”I don’t think you would be kind enough to send soldiers to protect me,” he said.

“As you are the last one alive, you will be our bait. I believe that Xiao Han will be here, and he will stand right in front of you. When that happens, he must pay his debt, and it must be paid in blood. You and everyone else in this prison will become sacrificial lambs. This is your sacrifice to redeem yourselves,” Anbei stated with a somber-looking face.

Sacrificial lambs?

Kuroda Kiyotaka started to shiver. He stood up and opened his eyes wide, as he lost control of his emotions. “Shinzo Anbei, what are you trying to do? Just what in the world are you trying to do? The court will decide my punishment. You do not have the authority to sentence me. I am the Deputy Prime Minister of the Ri Nation. You do not have the power to pass me a death sentence!” he screamed.

“Kuroda-san, don’t be silly. Just continue reading your book. I came here today to bid my farewell to you.”

Anbei laughed as he spoke. Then he waved his hand at Oshima Jun, who was beside him. “Oshima-san, it’s time for us to go,” he said.

“Yes!”

Oshima Jun nodded his head and followed behind him respectfully.

Kuroda Kiyotaka lost control at the thought of being a sacrificial lamb. He had not foreseen that his fate was to die together with the Thousand-Faced Killer in that prison. He expected to receive life imprisonment and had mentally prepared to live an idle life in prison. He could quietly read his books, newspapers, and life would still be acceptable. It would not go to the extent where he could not handle it. But now, that prospect of living a quiet life was no longer possible. Anbei was trying to get him killed.

“Shinzo Anbei, this old man here won’t let you off!”

He shouted and charged toward Anbei.

Oshima Jun’s eyes spotted the attack in a flash. He took a step back and slammed his right foot into Kuroda Kiyotaka’s chest.

“Arghh!”

Kuroda Kiyotaka screamed in pain as he flew backward. He slammed into the urinal, sending his head into it and his face pressed against the bowl. His pair of round glasses broke and he looked a pathetic sight.

“Kuroda-san, just stay here and be a good bait. Wait for Xiao Han to appear right in front of you.”

Anbei waved his hand at him and guffawed for a bit. Then he left without turning back. “Get him a new pair of glasses,” he said to Oshima Jun on his way out.

“Yes,” Oshima Jun replied and nodded his head.
