Chapter 109

My smile faded away the moment I saw her.

Shit..

"Atsushi! Kyouka!" I shout whispered at them.

They looked at me.

"Get in that crowd!" I quickly walked to the crowd of people to our right.

"What.. what's going on?" Atsushi asked as he and Kyouka hid in the crowd with me.

I peeked over someone's shoulder.

It was Kouyo. She was walking around while looking at people, as if she was looking for someone.

Kyouka looked in the same direction, "What is it?"

Atsushi finally realized who I was looking at, "Kouyo?"

Kyouka's eyes widened a little.

Kouyo looked in my direction.

I quickly looked ahead as we continued walking in the large crowd.

"Just. Act. Natural.." I told Atsushi and Kyouka, "If we do that, she'll carry on with her search. Is she still looking?"

"Yeah." Atsushi said, "Wait.. no. She's walking away."

I sighed in relief, "It would've gone to shit if I was found.."

We continued walking in the crowd.

Atsushi looked at me, "Why is she looking for you?"

"I ran away from the Headquarters. I had a gut feeling that she was searching for me."

He nodded, "Wait a second.. Where's Finch?"

My eyes widened a little, "He's.. He's not here anymore."

"Oh." Atsushi's eyes widened a little as well. He looked ahead.

"There it is." Kyouka said.

We walked out of the crowd and into the alleyway.

"How do we get in?" I asked.

"The vents." She looked at me, "We get to Mushitaro's cell through the vents."

"Alright." Atsushi smiled at us, "Let's find him."

~Time Skip~
We were crawling in the vents quietly.

"How much longer?" Atsushi whispered.

"Here." Kyouka stopped.

"...How do you plan on getting us inside that room?" I asked her.

"Demon Snow."

Suddenly, a blade cut the surface we were on and fell to the ground.

Kyouka landed perfectly on her knees as Atsushi landed face first with his ass in the air. I landed on all fours with slightly wide eyes. She had caught me by surprise.

I quickly sat up so I was on my knees. I saw him.

Mushitaro.

He was kneeling in front of a small table.

He began shouting some weird gibberish, "SECH STEMPEL SHRECKEN GEHT DURCH MEIN GEIBEN! YAAAAAHHHHHH!" He was wiggling with his hands in the air with his back facing us.

My eyes widened.

What the fuck?

Atsushi sat up, "We're here to help you."

Mushitaro suddenly stopped yelling.

"We're from the Armed Detective Agency." Atsushi told him.

Mushitaro lowered his arms. He looked over his shoulder and stared at us with a serious expression.
