the friend

Sanzo, you got all the info out of him, so what do you want to do with him anymore?

Lucy handed the towel to Sanzo after he was washing his hands in front of the sink in the same room.

He turned and took the towel as he coldly looked toward the floor and dried his hands.

-I think we don't need him anymore, let him go, he won't be able to do anything, and also they will kill him anyway.

Sanzo hits his arm beside her head against the wall and approaches her, softly passing his hand around her waist. His frightening eyes widened as he looked toward Shelly whose body shivered from what had happened to her for the first time.

Then he said in a calm tone.

I enjoy killing them quietly, of course if I throw it away I'll just lose my prey.

He came closer to tuck him completely against his body while Lucy tried hard to avoid his gaze, but he turned her head back towards him after he grabbed her lower jaw with his two fingers.

Has the lion ever abandoned its prey? Unless he was just going to die.

"It's true that Sanzo walked away from me but... he was scary, he's like a monster, his eyes... his words... even his breath were heavy, I can only say that the people who fall into his hands are poor in every way."

Lucy tried to control herself, put her hand on her chest and breathed slowly to regulate her breathing.

And she tries as much as possible not to make him notice her tension, which he has already noticed before

As Mikey rested his head on Shelly's thighs, who was playing with his white hair lightly, she looked into his cold eyes and said

I see there are words trapped between your lips, tell me.

He didn't speak, he just remained silent, he wanted to talk if she spoke to him again and asked him, he just wanted to hear another word from her, as if he was waiting to empty his worries.

Shelly smiled and stroked his hair lightly and then bent down and kissed his forehead and both eyes after forcing him to close them

. Exactly and her looks were serious, as if she wanted to know what was wrong with him to wipe the pain from his heart.

-I...

-You what? Say I don't want you to keep secrets from me anymore.

Mikey's gaze changed and became cold. He pushed her hands and got up and stopped after turning into the office with fanaticism.

Shelley, you have no right to ask me about these things. Who do you think you are to ask me about these things?!

Shelly got up from the sofa and stood right in front of him, while he looked at her coldly and forcefully, exchanging the same looks and said in a steady voice.

- You are always what you need and when you need me, I will be there for you, I told you that I will stay for you, but you refuse to do so, I want to know what is wrong with you so that I know how to deal with your problems.

Shut up, you don't know anything and you can't deal with anything about me.

- You refuse to tell me! How can I know when you refuse? How do you want others to help you when you refuse to talk about what hurts you??

- how long?!

She turned around nervously in the office and moved her hands in all directions as if he was seeing her with this nervousness for the first time, since he met her until now.

She approached and placed her origin in front of his face with a sharp expression and said in a stern tone

Don't come to me again if you don't want to tell me your troubles, just consider me dead, yes, consider me dead.

She opened both hands without calmness or caution

- consider that a bullet went through my head and killed me, and there would be no Shelley in existence anymore.

-Then you will come to my grave and talk about everything, but at that time I will not be able to answer you, even if I am. I hear you, but I can't answer you.

She quickly walked over to the sofa, grabbed her bag, and quickly left his office, slamming the door behind her to close it.

Mikey was in such a state of shock and nervous breakdown that he smashed everything in the office without anyone interfering with it, although everyone outside knew what he was doing but no one dared to enter.

He sat down on the sofa after making the desk a wreck and noticed his body trembling for the first time, I thought he was going to go crazy, but he hit back with both hands hard.

Then someone came in without knocking on the door and raised his foot and quietly crossed over the wreckage and sat down next to him, black pants and white shirt, muscle-slayed body, yellow eyes and charcoal-black hair.

He was silent for a few seconds, then said in a hoarse voice.

- What happened this time? I met a woman running out of here.

- Who are you and what is wrong with you?

Nothing, it's just a woman I know.

He turned to him and looked coldly, then smiled and said

- A woman you know?

He tilted his head and put his hand on Mikey

-Mike's shoulder, just confessing to her.

Women are like butterflies, you can break their wings with just one touch.

Don't hurt her, she's pretty, and she's strong, too.

- Mikey, go for her, don't leave her.

The woman who's been with you for so long you have to keep.

Mikey turned to him and said coldly.

- Baji... How do you know all this?

Baji smiled and looked up and raised his leg to put it on top of the other quietly and sighed, and he smiled and winked at him.

Chifuyo, Kasatora...these two, they give me everything.

So you must know about the rabbit?

- everything.

- That's why I told you to go to her, come on move, you bastard!

Baji shouted twice at Mikey to actually move him. Mikey stood up and Baji stood behind him, putting his hand on his shoulder from behind.

I'm Chifuyo, Kasatura, your brother Shinichiro, and Izana, we're all with you and you know it, but that woman should go to, she's your woman, idiot!

- Now go, I support you!

Damn everything, what did I expect from Pontine?!

This time Shelley was going for a walk since she had previously smashed her car for him.

She walks fast as if she wants to fly, the cold streaks of smoke scattered from between her lips, her heavy overcoat wrapped around her chest.

Shelly stopped when she saw a car coming towards

her, ran her hand behind her back and remembered that she had forgotten her gun in Mikey's office.

She ran but the car got in her way and they held a gun in her face.

She raised her hands back, panting, and took a few steps back

Four men got out of the car and were pointing at it with their pistols.

- Get in the car with us, there's something you should discuss with the chief.

They all approached her and were about to handcuff her back, but she dropped them on the floor with a quick movement from her

- that won't happen you bastards

She turned around after feeling that someone else was behind her to receive a hit on the head and she fell to the ground and fell unconscious.
