Chapter 058 – Businessman
“Power?” Miyaichi Rio was a bit dazed: “What kind of power?”
If it wasn’t for the courage Luo Feng gave her, she would have already collapsed by now.
When she left the police station, she learned of Luo Feng and Yukino’s conversation, she knew there were many problems, but she still came resolutely.
“An assassin’s top-level abilities.” Luo Feng said seriously: “I’m a devil, a devil who helps people fulfill their wishes, I can give you the power to take revenge on them.”
“Hane Mihoko, if it wasn’t for her, your life wouldn’t have become this miserable, she should die, right?”
“Her father, if he hadn’t raised a daughter like this, it wouldn’t have been possible, he should die, right?”
“That reporter, after hearing your words, even knowing how much you’re suffering, he still sold his conscience for money, he should die, right?”
“Those who gave false testimony for her, they should die, right?”
“They should all die…” Miyaichi Rio sat in the same spot as yesterday, murmuring: “I’ll kill them.”
“I know you’re in pain.” Yukino couldn’t hold back after hearing these words: “But many people are innocent! They’re wrong, but not deserving of death…”
Bang!
“So am I the one who should die?” Miyaichi Rio slammed the table hard, stood up and shouted: “What did I do wrong!”
“For this matter, I’ll continue to help you…” Yukinoshita Yukino gritted her teeth: “I’ll find a chance to go on a business trip there, I promise, I’ll definitely find evidence of that man’s crimes…”
“Sister, thank you, sorry, I shouldn’t have vented on you.” Miyaichi Rio sat back down: “I know, if it wasn’t for you, my fate would have been even more tragic.”
“It’s just that you’re too impulsive, last night was also my fault, for not coordinating the action time with you, I wanted to help you…”
“Heh… I’m an ordinary person, just want to live, just want to live by my own efforts, just want to support a family, get married, have children, live an ordinary life.” Miyaichi Rio looked a bit confused at Yukino: “In the end, to protect my rights, I have to rely on your authority? What is the law for? To help the bad people?”
“The law itself is fair, the enforcers may not be.” Luo Feng said softly: “Rely on those useless police? Rely on that bureaucratic government? Japan’s underworld is all legal. To protect yourself, to protect your mother, do you know what you should rely on? Rely on your own hands, only power is eternal, only power is worth trusting.”
As he spoke, Luo Feng walked over to Miyaichi Rio, sat down, and smiled: “As long as this big sister agrees, I’ll take 30 years of your lifespan, plus your soul, I’ll give you the abilities of a top assassin and provide you with weapons ensuring you have the power for revenge.”
“Then, if they want to retaliate against you and want to use the law’s weapons against you, you can tell them: Where’s the evidence?”
“Don’t worry, I’ll give you not only power but also the experience of a top assassin, guaranteeing that the incompetent trash in Hokkaido can’t find anything.”
“No, you’re too prone to impulse now.” Yukino quickly stopped her: “Even if the mastermind really deserves to die, you can’t harm so many innocent people, they… they…”
“Not deserving of death?” Miyaichi Rio looked at Yukino, stood up, walked in front of her, knelt down with a thump: “Please, 30 years of lifespan, my soul, I can offer anything, I just want to take revenge!”
“Do you know what it means to offer your soul?” Yukino said anxiously: “It means you’ll go to hell after you die and be tortured forever…”
“So what!” Miyaichi Rio shouted: “I just want power, please… otherwise, otherwise I can’t do anything.”
“I’m a police officer, I can’t watch you break the law, nor can I become an accomplice to evil.” Yukino said decisively.
“Police? Evil? Ah! I see, so you’re on their side…” Miyaichi Rio murmured: “So, you’re here to protect the bad people…”
Hearing her voice, Yukino didn’t know why, her heart tightened.
I’m obstructing her revenge…
Emotionally, I shouldn’t do this.
Legally, I must do this!
In the past, when her mother asked her to use her position to do something, it never made her this conflicted.
She realized for the first time, what a real dilemma is.
She pressed her hand on her chest, her face pale: “Just make the trade if you want, why make me make this decision?”
Thump…
Yukino knelt on the ground, speechless.
“Big brother, please, please…”
Bang, bang, bang…
Her forehead was slamming violently on the ground, as if using all her strength with each strike.
If Luo Feng didn’t stop her, she might have directly passed out from the impact, or even die.
“Child, she’s just a hypocrite, it’s my fault, I shouldn’t have let her make this decision, as a police officer, other than protecting those evil people, what else can she do?” Luo Feng raised his hand, stopped the girl who was kowtowing: “Since she doesn’t dare make this decision, since she can’t uphold justice for the commoners, let me do it then.”
“Yukino, do you understand now? The meaning of a devil’s existence.”
“If a country is absolutely just, there would be no room for a devil to exist, because everyone has the law to rely on, won’t seek the devil’s help.”
“But look at now? Without the devil’s help, what can she use to take revenge? Rely on your authority, or Japan’s laws?”
“Ridiculous…”
A contract appeared in front of Miyaichi Rio, clearly stating the price she had to pay, and what she could gain.
Looking at the hellish scene in her mind, she trembled all over: “Will Mihoko, will Mihoko be like me, forever damned in hell?”
“I don’t know, but I can guarantee, the people you kill will go to hell, how many years they’re punished, has nothing to do with me.” Luo Feng said softly: “Are you still willing to sign?”
“I’m willing!” Miyaichi Rio gritted her teeth and pressed her finger down.
The contract was established!
She felt a surge of power flowing through her limbs, the experience of using various firearms, various criminal techniques, even the indifferent mentality that Luo Feng had additionally gifted, all stimulating her brain.
For the first time, she felt that living was so wonderful.
“I won’t give you the weapons here, so that this big sister doesn’t hear and stop you again.” Luo Feng said softly: “I’ve placed those things in the places where you have the most memories, and your secret base, the place where you vent your emotions, go, go get your own things, take revenge on those who have hurt you.”
“I will.” Miyaichi Rio stood up, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.
Cowardice, futility, have all disappeared without a trace.
Now, she is like a battle-hardened cold-blooded assassin.
As for how many people she will kill, how many will sacrifice their lives for her, this has nothing to do with Luo Feng.
He, is just a spectator, a businessman who has just made a profitable deal.
