Chapter 6: The Evil Monster. Personified Calamity

I see we have new people here, right?! Amazing! The more people we have, the more fun the games will be!

The man who practically appeared out of thin air had an animated voice full of energy that didn't hide his euphoria like a child who has just been given a new toy. He was now walking through the rows facing each of the people with a wide smile showing his white teeth like a clown.

- UHHH! - did the man.

Along with the strange man were 8 other soldiers who were carrying rifles and pointing them at the group of people.

"What is this bastard analyzing?! It shouldn't be more than 1.65 meters tall, taking into account the height of the soldiers around it, who should be somewhere between 1.70 and 1.75 meters in height. Judging by his excess fat, surely he must not have been hungry, much less is eating the same portion of food that we eat at meals. His white coat isn't dirty, but it's a little faded, which means it's constantly washed and isn't new. He can't stop smiling and his voice and mannerisms are cheerful and boisterous. However, his gaze… It really bothers me. Disgusting! He looks exactly like a clown. Why are there uniformed dogs here too?! Is he really that scared of people?!"

Realizing that he was staring too much, Nakajima disguises it by turning his gaze to the same girl Dr. Johann was watching, as he noticed that the strange man in the lab coat was looking at him in front of the next row with a smile even more bizarre than the previous one where he now showed his white teeth and his eyes were half closed and mischievous.

- UH!

- Ooo! - Moving away from the queues back forward between them all. - Ahhh! His face takes on an expression of total surprise, his black eyes widened. - How rude of me! I was so excited to see them again that I forgot to introduce myself to our new friends! I am Doctor Mengele, Johann Mengele! We will meet every day to have fun together! - speaking with his comical voice continues - But let's not waste any more time! I know you must be as excited and excited as I am to get started, right?! So who wants to be first?!

" Fun? What do they do here every day?!"

The room was completely silent, Nakajima starts to observe the people who were with clearly visible features of discomfort and fear.

"I don't think they have any fun here"

- Let's go guys! What happened?! Aren't you excited?! Ummmmmm. I already know! If no one volunteers, I will choose who will participate first! To encourage them! - With a wide smile he turns his back to the lines, takes two steps forward and then turns to face them again. Dr. Johann stretches out his right arm and with his index finger points to the people - Hmm, let's see who goes first?! -While he waggled his finger and switched his eyes between the rows, after looking at them for a moment his eyes and mouth opened almost as if he had received a shock of clarity and understanding- I know! - As he spoke, his gaze roamed the room, always returning to a fixed point, one young woman in particular with short hair to just above her shoulders as pale as caramel. When she startled she started counting out loud-One, Two, Tr...

Before he can pronounce the next number, Doctor Mengele is interrupted by a strong young voice.

- I!

- Kai-chan! - The voice of the caramel haired young woman sounded low and trembling, as well as her red eyes that started to form tears in their corners.

The boy who stood at the front of the lines with the eyes of a wild beast was approximately 1.70m tall. Despite his height, his body was not slender, as small contours formed on his clothes were visible, although small, he clearly had a healthy body. He had fierce black eyes that looked deep like a bottomless well that was sucking you in making it almost impossible to look away. His hair was the same straight color with black strands that fell in a fringe above his nose.

As Hasegawa started walking, Satoru started to look around.

"OHO! Interesting! What will their relationship be?! Friends? Lovers? From the look of despair on her face, he sure must be very important to her."

The young woman Satoru was staring at was the same as Dr. Johann was staring before and that would probably be his choice to be first. Her face was visibly pale. She was about five feet tall and had short hair that fell over her light brown shoulders like caramel candy. Her eyes that gleamed with the light reflecting off the tears that were beginning to form in the corners of her eyes were also light caramel.

- Oh! Hasegawa Kaito-Kun! AMAZING! - Doctor Mengele's eyes sparkled as he spoke to everyone - Since we have a volunteer, everyone can go to the corner and wait for their turn.

The sentence had barely been said and all 58 people left went towards the wall next to the door and gathered in small groups, with the exception of Nakajima and Kurihara who remained isolated from the other groups. Watched by the 5 soldiers and Sergeant Takahiro who were divided among the small groups that formed.

Standing next to Kurihara, Nakajima remained motionless following each gesture of those in the center of the room.

"What are they going to do?!"

Nakajima sees the 8 soldiers who were standing behind Doctor Mengele, start to move and leave their weapons at the other end, starting to form a circle around the young man, leaving him in the center, separated by a small distance.

- Right! - Johann shouted euphoric - We won't take any longer. Begin! -He shouted moving away to the wall where the weapons were.

- THERE IS! THERE IS! THERE IS! You must be very brave to volunteer as first, don't you boy?! It reminds me of when I was your age…-The soldier paused for a moment and began to speak warmly from the nostalgia he felt at the moment-I was also fearless like that!

- You're just trying to show off! shouted a soldier, his bitterness in the words.

- THERE IS! THERE IS! THERE IS! Trying to play the hero isn't it boy?! Let me tell you something?! We'll teach you what happens to those who try to be heroes! -This time it was a soldier who was on the right side of the young man and who smiled bizarrely as he spoke at the end at the moment he had finished part in a direct charge.

Kaito notices the soldier's movement and turns around in the hope that he could dodge or block the attack. However, the moment he turns around he is hit by a punch in the face that hits a soldier who was on his left, being then violently thrown by the impact to the other end of the wheel that surrounded him.

Barely having fallen to the ground, Hasegawa quickly opens his eyes, which had been closed by the sudden impact, but when he opens them he finds the sole of a boot. It turns out that the soldier he fell close to tries to trample him. With agility, the boy dodges rolling to his right, quickly getting up in a jump.

When standing up, the soldiers who until then were not fighting and who remained with their arms folded just watching the fight until then shouted euphorically every time Kaito was hit or thrown brutally to the ground, while trying to dodge the continuous attacks.

"AHHH… I don't think it will. I should protect Riko. But I haven't even been able to defend myself! Their punches are strong and agile, I can't fight back! I don't know how much longer I can take it either! How pathetic I am!"

- THERE IS! THERE IS! THERE IS! What happened kid?! Already bleeding just from that?!

[Hasegawa was lying on the ground with a small red puddle around his face turned to his right.]

Upon being kicked again in the stomach, his body twitches involuntarily.

In silence his eyes opened with some difficulty. He saw that he was looking to where the largest group of people in the room was. He slightly lifting his head, moving it slowly until he finally stops it in one direction and remains motionless for a moment.

" Do not Cry. You shouldn't cry. I'll take care of everything, so don't cry, okay? Your radiant smile is so much prettier."

Kaito begins to move his no longer stretched arms to the sides, placing them close to his chin as in a push-up. However, everyone especially Hasegawa saw how the boy's arms wouldn't stop shaking. Knowing what the inevitable result of his desperate attempt would be. Serving as fate would have it, the moment Hasegawa pushes his arms against the ground, he taps his head lightly against the ground. He then resumes trying to get up, but he ends up hitting his head on the floor again. More and more blood flowed from his nose and mouth with each new fall, painting the floor a bright red. Despite the flaws, the boy tries to get up, again, again, again... not caring about the soldiers' evil laughter.

" No! That's enough Kai-chan! Everything is fine! You've done enough! PLEASE STOP!"

Riko's eyes filled with tears and shine as she saw the devastating scene:

[Kaito had stood up. He was bent forward, staggering from side to side, but still standing.]

- THERE IS! THERE IS! Do you already have wobbly legs?! Was this the kind of HERO I was trying to be?! One who can't even stand up?! - The mocking tone in the speech of the soldier who looked with his head raised at Hasegawa as if looking at a crawling insect.

- THERE IS! THERE IS! What a nice example huh?!

- Pathetic!

- THERE IS! THERE IS! THERE IS!

The soldiers' amusement at the whole situation emanates from their loud laughter.

Three soldiers, one in front of him, one on the right and one on the left, started to attack him. The boy who remained with his head down and who didn't seem to have noticed the movement around receives a sequence of punches and a hook in the chin by the soldier who had come in front of him and who, while making his attack, smiled cynically. With the first attack the already badly injured and partially unconscious boy takes a step back, bending his spine considerably to the point where the back of his head touches his spine. Hanging by the shirt that the soldier grabbed, he pulls him to him quickly with his left hand ready to punch him. The inevitable happened. The blow hit his face, instantly his head and body were again hanging by the shirt, however this time the body didn't show any reaction or even breathed. With disinterest and coldness, the body is thrown to the ground, crashing violently against the ground.

The moment the body hits the floor the entire room went completely silent. Not daring to utter a single word, no matter how small, and breaking the crushing silence, they remained motionless.

Even without speaking, the thoughts of those who felt sorrow in their hearts were the same. The remote idea that there were beings who defined themselves as "HUMAN" and still acted in this perverse and brutal way was inadmissible.

Those who had a certain hardness of heart made a point of watching that monstrous and repulsive scene, keeping bitterness all that whirlwind of emotions in the deepest and darkest of their hearts.

[Kaito had returned to the ground with his face covered by small wounds and red bruises that oozed his blood while his mouth was completely red and his nose had broken due to the strong impacts he had received.]

After 10 minutes without any reaction from the body still thrown on the ground, a soldier relatively tall for his group, but who didn't lose in terms of muscles, crouched in front of Hasegawa and aggressively grabbed the boy's hair.

- Ahhhh! Is that all you got boy?! - With a certain expression of discontent and anger, the soldier pulls Kaito's hair back more forcefully- If you couldn't do anything, you shouldn't have tried to look strong. You're the type I hate the most! Useless worms who don't know their places and act like they're the big ones! Worms like you are only fit to be trampled on. - In his thick voice, the soldier's words showed his hatred and disgust, as well as the look he cast at the boy's downcast. When he finished, the soldier carelessly dropped the head of the one he was holding.

- Let go. There's nothing else to do with that corpse. Leave it where it doesn't get in the way and let's go to the next one.

- Where did that determination of yours go?! That hate?!

- How boring~! That didn't even serve to take away my boredom!

POFT! Kaito is hurled to the ground by the soldiers like a stone, with no sign that he could be conscious.

"This scum beats people up just for fun. It is they who do not know their place. Those people …"

- Ohhh! - Doctor Mengele quickly goes to where Hasegawa was dropped and checks the pulses. - Uuuh…! Fortunately! It's still alive!

Dropping the boy's wrist to the ground with the same gentleness as the attacker. Turning around and to the surprise of the soldiers who saw the scene intrigued, they felt a certain chill down their spine that came from their lower back to the back of their neck, making something inside them tremble slightly. What the soldiers saw was that for the first time:

[Dr. Johann had no expression on his face or in his eyes. Not showing any emotion, it looked like he was totally empty inside.]

" What is happening?! They are scared?! What are they seeing?"

Not understanding what would have happened, Satoru continues like the rest of the groups to watch the doctor's back, trying to understand what would have happened while Doctor Johann faced the hostile group of insane..

Turning around and looking at the groups of people leaning against the wall he starts again saying in his brisk voice and his bizarre, frightening clown smile:

- Right! Let's go to the next. We can't waste time, can we?! I'm sure everyone is SUUUUUPER looking forward to getting started, isn't it?! So, who will be next?!
