The Demon's Menu-Chapter 1051: You are the wind and I am the sand, lingering love until the end of the world!
Confessed by a beautiful girl.
Everyone has had a similar dream.
Moreover, they’ve even researched what posture would allow them to have such a dream.
Urashima was no exception.
His research concluded that it’s best to choose a soft and rollable quilt.
But, it’s just a dream.
Reality?
It’s more painful than having all ten fingers broken.
He’s just a poor boy from a fishing village.
Perhaps his future isn’t too bleak, but for now?
It’s far off.
So far that, no matter how much he likes her, he would never speak up.
It’s not that he can’t.
It’s that he dares not.
Urashima fears that once he confesses, he won’t even be able to be friends any longer.
But then, Yukiko confessed to him.
It’s not a dream.
It’s reality.
Normally, at this moment, Urashima would surely burst out laughing.
But at this time...
He was still replaying Yukiko’s recent words in his mind.
Yukiko murdered someone.
She killed their dormitory roommate.
She killed people around him.
This...
Urashima felt his breath trembling.
"Yukiko, you must be joking, right?"
Urashima stammered.
"Not at all!"
"I’m serious!"
"I love you!"
Yukiko shook her head and said more earnestly.
"No, no."
"I mean, you’re joking about killing someone, right?"
Urashima stressed.
"How could that be?"
"That’s my love for you!"
"Ashi, Kiko, Mayi, they were all deliberately getting close to you, inventing one pathetic excuse after another, yet Urashima, you didn’t notice. Aren’t you a police officer? Why didn’t you see through their flimsy excuses?"
"It was me who came first!"
"Why do they have to come one by one to steal you away?"
"Why don’t you know how to refuse, Urashima?"
"Why do you have to be so gentle?"
Yukiko’s words started out gentle, but they became harsher and harsher towards the end.
Under such ferocious words, Yukiko’s pretty face twisted into a grotesque expression.
A similar aura appeared around Yukiko.
She stared at Urashima.
Indistinct cries came from her mouth.
Then, she charged straight at Urashima.
Bang!
Urashima, young, healthy, and definitely strong among his peers, was just tackled to the ground.
He was powerless to resist, and when Yukiko’s palms grabbed his wrists, Urashima couldn’t even manage to struggle.
Such great strength!
How is that possible?!
Urashima thought incredulously.
He had frequent contact with Yukiko, naturally knowing that she was quite athletic, but as for strength?
She even needed his help with jar lids.
Why is it now as easy for her to overpower him as it would be to overpower a child?
"You are mine!"
"Mine!"
"I will keep you by my side forever!"
"Never to be apart!"
Yukiko said this as her other hand directly seized Urashima’s neck.
Suddenly, a suffocating feeling surged forth.
"I, I treat them and you all the same!"
Urashima said with difficulty.
What he said was the truth.
Knowing that he couldn’t provide a future for any of them, Urashima restrained the impulses in his heart and regarded everyone as friends.
Or rather...
Sisters.
But why did such a thing happen?
Where did I go wrong?
Urashima pondered.
And Urashima’s recent words had completely pierced through Yukiko.
"It’s different!"
"It’s different!"
"We are not the same!"
Yukiko roared with anger, and her youthful face twisted to the extreme.
At this moment, Yukiko no longer looked like a ’person’.
Instead, she seemed a bit like... a demon!
She glared at Urashima.
The jealousy in her eyes was almost tangible.
"I love you!"
"They’re just playing around!"
"We are not the same!"
"Now that they’re dead, you are mine alone!"
As she uttered these chilling words, Yukiko began to tighten her grip on Urashima’s neck.
Already suffocating, Urashima’s vision began to darken at this moment.
And then
Bang!
A gunshot!
Urashima, whose consciousness was about to fade, rapidly regained clarity.
Then, he felt the grip on his neck loosen, and he was abruptly pulled up.
"Ry, Ryosuke Officer?"
Looking at Ryosuke, who had pulled him up, Urashima was somewhat stunned.
"Stop dazing!"
"Go find Lord Jason!"
"We can’t handle this kind of person!"
Ryosuke pointed at Yukiko, who had taken a bullet, and abruptly pushed Urashima.
Although it was a small caliber service pistol, a normal person taking a bullet, even if not fatal, would generally lose the ability to move. However, Yukiko, who was shot in the shoulder, behaved as if nothing had happened.
Bang, bang!
Ryosuke fired two more shots.
One at the forehead.
One at the heart.
Both hit their marks precisely.
But Yukiko, aside from being knocked to the ground by the shots, seemed virtually unharmed.
The only change was the bullet holes left on her body.
"What, what’s this?"
Urashima was completely at a loss.
"Hurry up and start the car!"
Ryosuke pushed the Assistant again.
This time, Urashima finally snapped out of it and began to scramble towards the car in the yard.
This car was an official vehicle.
A perk that came with Ryosuke’s transfer into ’Section Zero’.
"It’s you! It’s you! It’s you!"
"You’re just like those women!"
"All here to take Urashima away!"
"He’s mine!"
"No one can take him away!"
"I’ll kill you!"
"I’ll kill you!"
"I’ll kill you!"
Yukiko murmured to herself, which soon turned into a roar.
