Arriving at the 3rd floor, Yusuke could already hear signs of an engageer on the trigger, he quickly walks towards the office
In the office, faintly lit by a lantern, Yusuke can see aover Mizuki’s bodyHe points the pistol in the air and fires
Hearing the gunshot, everyone stops
The sound of the gunshot echos through the roo
While crying hysterically, Mizuki is stretching out to her collapsed brothersTheto remove her clothesWith a surprised expression, the man looked at him
Quickly approaching the man, Yusuke pulls back the ha the next bullet
Yusuke points his pistol between the idYusuke then kicks hi steel toed combat boots, the , falling to the floor
“………”
While thein pain; Yusuke points the barrel of the gun at the back of his head
Holding his nose, thehim crawl until he nears the wall, Yusuke then opens his mouth
“Stop”
At that cold voice, the man stops
“Put these on your legs”
While saying this, Yusuke takes out a pair of handcuffs from a leather pouch on his waist
“Secure one end to your leg, and the other to the leg of the desk”
The man looks firmly at the pair of handcuffs thrown in front of him
The gun is once again fired
With the bullet flying into the cabinet next to him, the man screams
“Do it quickly…”
Hearing that voice which sounded like he was tired of waiting, the h the darkness, secures his right leg to the desk
With this, he is unable towithin his reach that could be used as a weaponYusuke finally lowers the gun
“Oi, you okay?”
He calls out to Mizuki, but there is no response
When he turns around, he sees Mizuki holding Yuu’s body in her lap and not
“Ah……ah……”
So from her
“……Oi”
“Yuu is……”
Walking over to her, he looks down at Yuu from above
His neck had been broken
His eyes were hollow and lifeless
“………”
Yusuke closes his eyes and suppresses so up within him
Forcing hier, he opens his eyes and looks aroundThe collapsed Takashi+ enters his visionHis body is rolled up and tre
“You okay?”
Yusuke walks over to his, and was s washis stoe to his intestinesYusuke wasn’t sure if the boy’s life was in danger, but it was clear he received serious injuries
(shi+t)
Even if it was a small wound, it would turn serious if left untreatedThat is the lith of a child’s body
(I should take him to the hospital… no, the it’s littered with zombiesCan I somehow make due with a improvised treatment?If only there was a doctor… but where would we find one…)
While Yusuke was lost in thought, his right hand was grabbed by soun from him
“I told you it’s dangerous!”
Afraid of accidentally firing it, Yusuke tried to shake her off, but she wouldn’t let goHer hands were firoReluctantly, Yusuke releases the gun
As soon as she got the revolver in her hands, Mizuki stands in front of the un in front of her with both hands, preparing to fire
“Hiiii!”
The man screa handcuffed to the deskHe holds both of his ar his face in fear
Looking at him, it was a pathetic appearanceHis cheeks were sunken and his nose was broken with blood running down his faceHis clothes were stained with the blood from a cut on his arrant hunting
(TL: I guess some japanese like to hunt homeless people and beat them up)
“How dare!”
Mizuki calls out in a shaking voiceEver since she grabbed the handgun, her hands that held it were treer, the bullet would be shot
“H, help me……” (TL: “Ta, tasukete kure…”)
At the rew
“How dare you, so like that!”
“I rong!I’ive me!”
“How can you say that!Yuu was, Yuu was!To do so so terrible!”
(TL: Her words are really broken and unfinishedSorry if it sounds incoherent)
“I had no intention of killing hi, I became messed up!”
“I, I don’t care!What does thatkilled!?”
(TL: She says this like “Are you yourself scared of being killed”Relating to the death of Yuu)
“Forgive me!Please, don’t do it……”
He cowers on the ground while covering his face
Looking at the er
“I won’t forgive you…”
“I’m sorry… please, I don’t want to die…”
At that begging(TL: This was an incomplete sentence in the raw)
No er
She put strength in her finger, trying to pull the trigger un did not fire
Eventually
“Why……”
Mizuki lets out a hopeless voice
Her ar
If it were in the ht, she may have been able to do it, but she was unable to ruthlessly take the life of a cowering human
“Why are you begging for your life…?Why can’t you just shut up and let me kill you……”
Listening to her talk as if she was broken, the htened
Seeing Mizuki like that, Yusuke walks over and stretches out his hand from beside herHe pulls back the haun was still clasped tightly in her hands
“Mizuki”
Surprised by Yusuke’s voice, she looks up at him
Come to think of it, this was the first time he had called her by her name
The strength leaves her body, she loosens her grip, and releases the gun to Yusuke
With her face cast down bearing a ghostly expression, she looks at him
“My brothers…”
Mizuki spoke
“They thought of Takemura-san as a hero… they spoke about you so many times after you first came to help us… they said they wanted to be like you when they grew up, so I thought it was dangerous and tried to escape with them”
Hatred was floating within her eyes
“Why… why didn’t you protect us?”
Yusuke looks at the pistol in the palm of his hand and remains silent
Eventually, he speaks
“Sorry”(TL: He uses “Suman”which is more like “My bad” xD)
At Yusuke’s words, Mizuki acts as if she had just woken up,
“Ah, ahh… what a… did I perhaps say soh it was my fault… ahh, what should I do… are you mad…?”
“It’s fineLook over Takashi+’s injuries”
“Okay…”
With uneasy steps, Mizuki wanders towards Takashi+(TL: Takashi+, RUN!!)
“Fuu……”
Yusuke turns towards the desk and lets out a sigh
With his elbows rested on his knees, and his hands folded to support his chin, he glares at theof what to do next
The sounds of fighting had disappeared, and there was a painful silence spread over the room
Mizuki was by Takashi+’s side, staring with a blank expressionThein the corner of the room
Time flowed slowly
Everything had been ruined
The cause of it lie with himself
Yusuke understood that fact
(It’s my fault huh…)
He didn’t think he would be able to do everything perfectly, and he knew various setbacks would come up
But… the proble worse and worse
