Nanashiki Mio thought this secretly in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it out loud. She also realized that neither Shirasaka nor Asano Chiya seemed to like her saying such discouraging words.

Since all the experiences she was enjoying now that she had never enjoyed before were brought to her by them, Nanashi Mio naturally wouldn't say anything that would make them unhappy.

"Tsk, stop staring at that lousy bill of yours. Isn't money meant to be spent? I won't let you waste it, okay? You've earned the smiles of two beautiful girls, so shouldn't you have earned a lot of money?"

Only Asano Chiya, who ate the most and had the thickest skin among the three, saw that Shirasaka had been staring at the bill in his hand since he left the house. She decisively grabbed Nanashiki Mio who was standing beside her, moved closer to Shirasaka, and gave him a somewhat flattering smile.

After all, he is my God of Wealth. If I eat his food, of course I have to make him happy.

"Yes, I'm making money, isn't that enough? I'll leave this guy to you for the whole night. You can't refuse anymore, right?"

Shirasaka shook his head. He had gradually become accustomed to Asano Chiya's shameless behavior.

As for Nanashiki Mio, for now, Shirasaka can only temporarily place her at Asano Chiya's house. Firstly, this place is close to his home, and he can rush to the scene as soon as anything happens. Secondly, Asano Chiya's personality can help him keep an eye on Nanashiki Mio, so that she won't become depressed and quietly hang herself in a deserted place.

"Also, if anything unexpected happens, notify me immediately. Don't feel embarrassed... Never mind. The word embarrassed doesn't exist in your dictionary."

Shirasaka did not forget to give Chiya Asano a piece of advice at the end. After all, according to Nanashiki Mio, her ability to kill monsters was beyond her control. If she really encountered anything, Chiya Asano, the otaku girl, would have no power to fight back.

This is also the reason why Shirasaka did not find a hotel for Nanashiki Mio to stay in. He even planned to find the landlord the next day and rent the empty house next door for her.

Anyway, the rent is not expensive, and there are many empty rooms in the apartment, so it will save you from any unnecessary trouble later.

"What kind of accident could happen? Is it possible that this marshmallow can eat me?"

Upon hearing this, Asano Chiya reached out and pinched Nanashiki Mio's intact little face, forcing a pitiful smile out of her, then turned around and asked Shirasaka.

Saying that Nanashiki Mio is cotton is overestimating her. She looks like she is at the mercy of others. Even Asano Chiya has never seen such a person before.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

With her face pulled, Nanashiki Mio could only make hesitant sounds and didn't even dare to struggle, for fear that it would cause trouble to Asano Chiya.

Asano Chiya really couldn't understand what kind of accident such a girl could cause. Could it be that she was too weak and easily targeted by criminals and taken away to be used as a soft cloth ball?

"It's best..."

Before Shirasaka could finish his words, he heard an urgent brake sound, and then saw an old-fashioned van suddenly stop in front of the three of them.

Asano Chiya and Nanashiki Mio, who were also stunned, looked at the van that almost hit them with puzzled eyes. The four pairs of eyes were filled with confusion.

Then, with a rough sound of a door opening, the side door of the van was suddenly opened, revealing two bald men inside.

After looking at the paper-like thing in their hands expressionlessly, a hint of doubt flashed in the eyes of the two bald men. But before the three Shirasakas could speak, they grabbed Chiya Asano and Mio Nanashiki in front of Shirasaka into the car with a sack each, just like catching chickens.

The whole process of arresting people, closing the door and setting off was done in one go, and it took no more than ten seconds. These people took Asano Chiya and Nanashiki Mio away, leaving Shirasaka standing there with nothing to say.

"no?"

Even Shirasaka hadn't expected someone to snatch someone in broad daylight. As someone who had lived under the rule of law for years, this was something he had never imagined would actually happen.

This is too lawless, right? Are all the police officers in Japan from Akaashi?

Uh. It seems so.

Shirasaka, who wanted to see what these guys were trying to do, curled his lips, caught up with the van in front in one step, and with a power jump, he jumped onto the roof of the van.

As the saying goes, there must be something wrong when things are out of the ordinary. The other party dared to arrest people so blatantly in front of others, so they must have some support and confidence. Shirasaka wanted to see what these guys were up to.

There were three of them here, so why didn't they tie me up? What? Discrimination, huh? How the hell could I tolerate this?

The people in the van hadn't guessed that someone could easily catch up with them and jump onto the roof, so the impact of Shirasaka falling down was ignored as a bump in the road.

"Are you sure that's the person they asked us to arrest? He doesn't look like him to me."

When Shirasaka pressed his body against the car, the sound of the robbers' discussion could be heard from inside the car.

"That should be it. The location they gave us is right here. Since we've already caught both women, we can just let the people over there do the verification themselves. We'll just collect the money."

Another man's voice sounded, answering his companion's question. From what he said, it seemed that their kidnapping this time was premeditated, which also meant that they must have other conspiracies behind it.

Shirasaka calmed down and listened carefully to what was said in the car. When he confirmed that Asano Chiya and Nanashiki Mio were just captured and not under any other threats, he controlled his urge to take action, took out the shadow cloak from his backpack and put it on himself.

Since Asano Chiya and the others are not in danger for the time being, they must find a way to catch the person behind the kidnapping first. Shirasaka doesn't want to investigate afterwards, as that would put them in a passive position and they would be targeted sooner or later.

Now, all I have to do is follow this car, and they will naturally lead me to the person I want to find.

The van was speeding along the road in Kamihama. Shirasaka even suspected that the driver was a tofu delivery man named Fujiwara. He was on the roof of the van and was almost thrown out several times.

With the help of the shadow cloak, Shirasaka's figure hidden on the roof of the car did not appear, so he did not attract too much attention from passing vehicles. Otherwise, a person lying on a speeding van would definitely become the most eye-catching thing, causing Shirasaka's plan to fail.

It was not known whether some kind of drug was used to control Asano Chiya and the others, but Shirasaka did not hear any movement from the two girls along the way. The car was also eerily quiet. After the initial conversation, everyone inside fell into silence.

From this perspective, these kidnappers are indeed a bit too professional. They don't look like the professional qualities that street robbers would have.

The more this happened, the more Shirasaka became interested in the person who planned this kidnapping. He just didn't know if the person was targeting Chiya Asano or Mio Nanashiki.

If it was the former, Shirasaka would have already known that Asano Chiya had her own little secret. If she didn't say it herself, Shirasaka would naturally not ask too much. But if it was related to her, it would be a good opportunity to see what this live pig was hiding.

But if it involves Nanashiki Mio, Shirasaka feels that it is most likely related to the cult group that her rotten father belongs to.

In that case, Shirasaka glanced at the kitchen knife in his backpack, and a sense of anticipation rose in his heart.

If I remember correctly, a cultist has 100 experience points. Although it is not as good as a ghost, it is easier to deal with.

If a hungry ghost is almost equivalent to a chicken to Shirasaka now, then a normal human being, without weapons, is not even a chicken to Shirasaka.

It's simply a mobile experience book.

Shirasaka shook his head, feeling inexplicably anticipating the act of killing. People say killing people makes one nervous, so why did he feel even more excited?

Could it be that I was actually a cold-blooded murderer? But on a normal day, I didn't have the habit of worshipping the Great Western King...

Soon, as the van slowly drove into an underground garage in the suburbs of Kamihama, the answer that Shirasaka had been waiting for finally came.

Chapter 49 disappeared?

After watching the kidnappers coming out of the van and taking away the two people wrapped in sacks, Shirasaka finally lifted his invisible state and followed these people very cautiously.

After briefly observing the number of people on the other side, Shirasaka determined that there were only four kidnappers at the moment. With his speed, he should be able to subdue them all in an instant.

But Shirasaka couldn't be sure how much was hidden in the basement.

Shirasaka was highly focused along the way, but he didn't forget that there were cameras in this world. He needed to guard against not only the four kidnappers in front of him, but also various surveillance cameras that might appear around him at any time.

Fortunately, his triple agility was enough for him to perform many inhuman movements. In addition, the basement was already dark, so he did not trigger any alarms along the way.

Soon, after the four of them took Asano Chiya and the other two to a room in the basement, Shirasaka took the opportunity to sneak in and, with the help of the shadow cloak, hid himself in the shadow in the corner of the room.

"We have brought the people here, please confirm it."

After removing the sacks covering Asano Chiya and Nanashiki Mio, revealing the two unconscious girls inside, the kidnapper in charge sat in the boss chair facing him, and spoke as if he had been waiting for a long time.

When the figure in the backlight saw Asano Chiya and the other girl, he finally stood up and came under the light. He checked the two unconscious girls with some doubts. After reaching out to lift Nanashiki Mio's hair and seeing the almost iconic burns, he nodded with satisfaction.

"Why are there two people? Didn't I say that only the one who brought you the photo should come back?"

The man in charge of the handover spoke in a somewhat steady male voice, but under the light, he revealed the face of an extremely ordinary middle-aged man, just like the ordinary office workers that can be found in large numbers on the street. He was even wearing a work suit, and there was no distinctive feature on him.

It is hard to imagine that such a person planned such a blatant kidnapping.

"You couldn't tell the difference yourself, did you? Don't you see how different the photo you provided is from the real person? We didn't have time to tell the difference back then. We must have caught them all for you."

"There was a companion walking with them along the way. You'll have to figure out how to deal with that afterwards. Calculating the time, he should have called the police by now."

The leading kidnapper didn't care about that. He only considered whether his mission was completed. He turned around and told the man in front of him about the troubles he had encountered before.

As for Shirasaka, the boy who witnessed the whole thing, their tone was as if they were discussing a passerby, and they were not worried at all that he might call the police.

"Why don't you just capture the witness as well? You still need us to help you with this..."

The middle-aged man who was in charge of the handover frowned when he heard this, as if he had not expected that there would be more complications than just this one. He couldn't help but complain a little when he spoke.

"There's no room in the car, and someone's coming up next to us. We might as well just kill them on the side of the road. You'll help clean up the mess, right? Members of the infamous False Words Cult can't even handle such a minor matter? Isn't it said that once you join their cult, you can do anything?"

The kidnapper leader sneered back, obviously not having the time to chat with the person in front of him. He even mentioned the other party's background in order to show that he was not completely unaware of his background.

"...Don't know things you shouldn't know. As mercenaries, hasn't anyone ever told you not to investigate your employer's identity?"

"The money is in the box. I'll take the person away. You can deal with the rest yourselves. Remember to clean it up and don't leave any unnecessary trouble."

The middle-aged man paused for a moment and issued a warning. Then he took out a box from the side and threw it to the kidnapper leader. Then he decisively grabbed Nanami Mio who was still unconscious and walked towards the small door on the side.

After the kidnapper leader opened the box in his hand and confirmed that the amount of reward inside was correct, he grinned and nodded to his companions beside him.

"Boss, what should we do with this remaining chick? Just pour cement on her and sink her to the bottom of the ocean? That's a bit of a waste."

After completing the task, the few people were obviously much more relaxed. It seemed that this was not the first time they had done this, and everything could be described as familiar.

One of the sturdy men walked up to the side of Asano Chiye who was still unconscious, took a close look at her delicate and pretty face, and then showed a look of regret on his face.

What a beautiful girl! Isn't it a waste to kill her like this?

"Take your mind off your second brother. If you have money, you can go to the red-light district and find a few more. Keeping such troublesome people around will only cause us trouble. I don't want to cause any more trouble, so let's deal with it as soon as possible."

The kidnapper leader glared at his companion who was speaking. He knew clearly what lust was like and had a sword hanging over his head. He always adhered to the principle of never causing unnecessary trouble. Naturally, he would not agree to his companion's proposal.

"I was just joking, so just let it sink."

The man who was scolded sighed with some regret and scratched his head. He did not feel angry because of being scolded. Instead, he honestly wanted to pick up Chiya Asano from the ground.

He naturally knew how easy it was for the small head to control the big head and how easy it was to fail. Since his boss said so, there was no need to think about it anymore. It was just a pity for this high-end stuff. It was not easy to find such a pure little face with such a perfect figure in the red-light district.

The man, who had just squatted down thinking that he should at least satisfy his desire to touch the girl in front of him before dealing with her, at least by rubbing those two plump and soft pieces of flesh, felt something coming through the air, followed by the sound of two dull objects colliding.

His instinct as a mercenary made him subconsciously want to roll to the open space on the side, but the next second, two more sounds of breaking through the air were heard. He could only see a red meteor flying towards him, and then he fell into eternal darkness.

Just like a gift of reciprocity, the lurking Shirasaka also caught the mercenaries off guard. He had been listening to the whole process and collected a lot of information he needed. It was time to take action.

If he delayed any further, the live pig on the floor above him would really be sunk into the sea.

With a brick in each hand, Shirasaka used up the four bricks he had just prepared in his backpack in less than a second, and in return, he saw four men lying in a pool of blood.

In addition to the four kidnappers, there are two members who were supposed to be here as guards in the room. After Shirasaka dealt with the four most vulnerable targets, there are only two enemies left.

Among them was the kidnapper leader.

It's not that Shirasaka doesn't want to deal with this guy first, but it's obvious that compared to his companions, this guy, the leader of the kidnappers, knows some other useful information. If he keeps it, he will definitely be able to get a lot of good stuff out of him.

As for the others, Shirasaka would kill them directly with one blow. After all, it could be heard from their conversation just now that they were a group of desperate criminals who did not take human life seriously. Since they liked killing, they must be prepared to be killed.

While the room was still in chaos due to his sudden attack, Shirasaka dodged and slashed the neck of the last person in the room except the leader with the kitchen knife in his hand. In just a few seconds, only one kidnapper was left among the kidnappers who had just been laughing and enjoying the joy of completing the mission.

Like a killer descending from hell, Shirasaka didn't care about the blood splattering on his body, and instead rushed towards the last kidnapper leader left in the room.

But soon, Shirasaka stopped what he was doing and an expression of "as expected" appeared on his face.

How should I put it? Although he had anticipated the possibility of an accident and had used the fastest burst speed possible, man proposes, God disposes, and Shirasaka still missed a key issue.

Originally in his plan, even if he killed the remaining five people, he could still rely on his speed advantage to get close to the kidnapper leader. At that time, with his own physical fitness, controlling him would be a piece of cake.

But perhaps he was so used to staying in his original world that Shirasaka forgot that this was not the Celestial Empire with its ultimate control rules. The metal product in the hands of the kidnapper leader, which was flashing with black light and representing the progress of human warfare, finally reminded him of this.

As the saying goes, a gun is fast at seven steps away, and accurate and fast within seven steps. Although Shirasaka has a speed beyond ordinary people, he still dare not challenge the other party's hand speed of pulling the trigger. This is not a joke, especially when this guy's gun is not pointed at himself, but at the head of Asano Chiya next to him.

If Shirasaka gets shot, he might be able to hold on thanks to his armor and health, but if Asano Chiya, with his weak arms and legs, gets shot in the head, there's definitely no chance of survival.

"Don't move! Who are you?"

Compared to the regretful Shirasaka, the kidnapper leader was the most terrified one. Shirasaka was like the god of death who suddenly appeared from hell. In just a blink of an eye, all his companions died tragically on the spot. If he had not been lucky enough and not been chosen as his target and instinctively pulled out his gun, he would probably be lying in a pool of blood like them at this moment.

When he saw Shirasaka clearly and vaguely recalled that he was the boy who had traveled with the two girls before, he felt like his worldview was about to collapse.

What the hell are these high school students like these days? It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them unparalleled killers, right? What kind of horrible thing had I provoked?

The stupid employer just now didn't tell me that such a scary guy would appear in this mission!

In his heart, he had silently cursed all the ancestors of his previous employer. The kidnapper leader looked at the young man in front of him with horror, his body covered in blood. His eyes were fixed on the kitchen knife in his hand. It was this thing that just cut off the neck of his companion who was best at close combat in less than a second.

At this moment, he could not care about anything else and could only hope that the young man in front of him could take care of the girl who was held hostage in his hands.

"Okay, I won't move."

As it turned out, his bet was right. Pointing the gun at the monster was obviously not as effective as pointing it at the unconscious girl next to him. At least for now, the boy really stopped moving forward and stayed where he was.

"one……"

"two……"

Just when the kidnapper leader wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, he heard the low whisper of countdown coming from Shirasaka's mouth. Like a frightened bird, he was about to warn Shirasaka not to make any small moves, but he was horrified to find that the young man who had just stood in front of him disappeared into the air in front of him as if he did not exist at all.

"Disappeared?"

He looked around with an incredulous look, and fear from the bottom of his heart surrounded the kidnapper's heart. Even as a mercenary, he had never seen such a strange thing. Now he could only frantically try to find the figure of the young man again in his sight.

But the next second after he shifted his gaze, a black kitchen knife flew out from in front of him and cut off his arm holding the pistol before he could react.
