I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

Chapter 98: Evil Thief! (First Order Request!)

A flash of bright silver slashed from top to bottom, followed by a sound.

Owari Satake was already on guard, and at this moment he dodged to the side in embarrassment.

The man with the knife refused to give in. He walked steadily and methodically, approaching closely and slashing rapidly. There was a flash of silver light before his eyes, and the sharp blade cut through the air, making a monster's scream.

puff!
Owari Satake was careless and was cut on the outside of his arm by the tip of the knife, cutting a hole in his thick felt coat.

He staggered back quickly, touched the cut with some fear, and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that he was not injured. Looking up, he saw that it was an old man who showed up halfway.

The man was tall and strong, wearing an old-fashioned sweater and shirt, jeans, and a pair of shiny leather shoes.

His gray hair was covered by an old brown baseball cap, and he wore tortoise-shell reading glasses on his face. He looked at himself with bright and serious eyes.

In his hand, he held a gorgeous samurai sword, which looked like a sacrificial sword enshrined in a shrine. It shone with a cold light under the street lamp, making people feel cold.

The chief priest of Inari Shrine and Iori Miko's grandfather.

Owari Satake recalled the information he had read before, and some of the strange things that had always seemed to him were finally answered.

He had been wondering before, how could a normal parent allow a disabled child to go to and from school on his own.

Now we have the answer. This old man disguised himself and secretly followed his granddaughter to escort her every day.

Owarisaburo frowned his broken eyebrows, and the "川"-shaped wrinkle between his eyebrows was very obvious.

The employer provided too few people. What can three people do? If there were more people keeping an eye on them, the old man's secret escort should have been discovered.

This will cause more trouble.

Owari Satake pulled out a boning knife from his bosom. The handle of the knife was stained with reddish-brown stains that could not be washed off. He stared at Iori Tadamichi to prevent him from running away, and shouted.

"Come and help me!"

Seeing this, his accomplice behind him tore the stray cats off his body and ran back to the van in a panic to get out a machete, and killed several of them with a swing of the machete.

The other stray cats scattered with their tails between their legs, but they did not run far away. They still squatted not far away and made threatening low growls.

After getting rid of the stray cat, three men surrounded them with weapons.

Iori Tadamichi confronted the three people without saying a word, protecting his granddaughter with one hand.

He originally wanted to let Iori Miko go first, but he was not sure whether the other party had other manpower.

What if Yuko was captured as soon as she left her protection?
Iori Miko hid behind her grandfather, her smart eyes observing the situation around and behind her, while her other hand groped around her schoolbag.

But he caught nothing. He frowned and looked over, only to find that the alarm hanging on his schoolbag was gone.

On the other side, Owari Satake didn't want to waste time. Although the street was remote, who knew if someone would come out in the next second.

He used the machete in his hand as a throwing knife and threw it towards Iori Tadamichi. At the same time, he shouted and the three of them attacked together.

Iori Tadamichi was tense, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat. He held the hilt of the sword with both hands and used the blade to block the machete.

As he retreated, he controlled the sword in his hand to make standard and beautiful swinging movements, trying to force the three people back.

But his swordsmanship was not that great, and he learned the Kagami-shin Akechi-ryu which was more ornamental.

In addition, he had never fought with real swords and guns in his life, and he was in his seventies or eighties. His physical strength and reaction time were extremely limited, so his swordsmanship was not very sharp.

He also had to protect Iori Miko. Facing the siege of three habitual murderers, although he managed to hold them off by constantly retreating, he still seemed a little clumsy.

Moreover, he was soon forced back to the wall of an alley, with nowhere to retreat. Behind him, Iori Miko was watching all this with a pale face, and her glass-like eyes were filled with panic like a frightened deer.

How to do how to do.

She pursed her lips tightly and tried not to scream out of control, but she didn't know what to do.

He just used his cane to keep up with his grandfather's pace at all times to avoid affecting him. The next moment, Iori Tadamichi was embarrassed to block the attacks of the other two and left a flaw. Owari Satake seized the opportunity and kicked him in the chest. Iori Tadamichi groaned and took a few steps back, holding on to the wall to barely stand.

Iori Miko lost her protection and was completely exposed to the three people.

Less than two minutes had passed since they got off the bus.

Owari Satake showed a simple smile and reached out to Iori Miko.

Iori Tadamichi struggled to stop it, but found it was too late. His eyes were bloodshot: "Miko! Run!"

Upon hearing this, Iori Miko immediately ran into the alley, but she was too slow with her crutches, and Owari Saburo caught up with her in just two steps.

Seeing that she was being caught up, she had no choice but to throw the crutch in her hand towards Owari Samu, and her small body fell backwards. Several stray cats from before gathered around her and growled at Owari Samu.

Owari Satake smiled silently, easily blocked the thrown cane with his arm, picked it up, and moved closer.

"Meow!"

Seeing that they couldn't scare him off, the stray cats rushed over in a hive, trying to stop him from getting close to Iori Miko.

Owarisabune used his cane as a club to whip the cats. The cane made a whirring sound in the air, and each blow hit one or two cats.

One cat was even hit on the head, bleeding profusely and twitching on the ground.

"Run away." Iori Miko crawled backwards using her right hand to support her body, muttering softly.

The cat's blood splattered on her little face. Dongquan's misty eyes were covered with mist, and tears slid down her fair face mixed with blood.

Sadness appeared on that cute little face that seemed to always be calm, ethereal and curious. Iori Miko sobbed and shouted, "Run away!"

Iori Miko, wearing a white dress, was lying on the ground crying. Not far away, the injured Iori Tadamichi was fighting with two gangsters with a knife in the shadow cast by the street lamp. He looked over here from time to time, feeling extremely anxious.

Owari Satake killed or injured several cats in just a few moves, then walked over, grabbed Iori Miko's hair and lifted her up.

He looked at the girl and smiled, with obvious nasolabial folds on his face.

Iori Miko's hair was pulled so hard by him that it hurt, so she had to grab his hand, and stared at the man in front of her with hatred in her misty eyes.

He was wearing a dirty baseball cap, dressed like a homeless person, and had a broken eyebrow.

He has thick eyebrows, big eyes, a square face and heavy bags under his eyes. He looks like a simple and honest middle-aged man. He smells strongly of fish and is probably a butcher at the seaside.

Owari Satake didn't say much. He looked at Iori Miko with a very pure gaze, as if he was observing a fish to be slaughtered, and the sharp knife in his hand seemed eager to cut it open somewhere.

He carried Iori Miko and looked back at Iori Tadashi who was still resisting, "Hey, old man, if you don't want her to die, let her go--"

"Evil villain! The general of Higashino Castle, Shukichizaemon, is here!"

A talking raven-sized pigeon fell from the sky. Its voice sounded like that of a powerful old man, but its words sounded like those of a warrior from the Warring States Period.

It swooped down at a speed that ordinary people could not react to, and its claws with a steely luster accurately grabbed Owari Satake's face.

Owari Satake hurriedly threw Iori Miko away, covered his face with one hand, and waved a boning knife with the other hand to drive away the pigeon.

Xiuji dodged nimbly, and at the same time, his sharp claws scratched Owari Saburo's arm, leaving it bleeding.

After charging, it flew to the side of the alley, and stopped on the awning of a pub that had not yet opened for business. It laughed three times, "How dare you show off your skills in front of an expert?"

After saying that, white mist sank like moonlight. Xiuji lowered his head slightly, looking solemn and meticulous, as if he was welcoming something.

Owari Satake glared at the pigeon monster standing on the awning of the pub but ignored it. It was just a pigeon monster. What else could it do except harass it?
Now the important thing is to bring the person to the employer first, and then the five million will be in hand.

His hand reached out to grab Iori Miko again.

There will be another chapter later, and the two chapters together should have 5,000 words. I can’t hold on any longer, so I’ll take a nap first, and then write today’s update after I wake up. From now on, I’ll update 6,000 words daily.
