BAREFACED

Chapter 107

Baji runs in the direction Kisaki ran in.

"BAJI NOOOO!" You shout. You try to pull yourself up but your hair is still tied to the railing. You groan in pain as your head hits the railing again. You look around you to see a shattered phone on the ground and a piece of glass. You use your good leg to pull the glass towards you. You pull the piece of glass closer to you with the back of your shoe. Once it gets close enough, you grab it, gripping onto it. You grab your hair and start cutting it with the glass shard. You hear the shredding of your hair as you cut through it. You feel yourself come free, and slowly push yourself up. You can hardly feel your leg now, but you quickly rush in Baji's direction.

"So... your grandma owned this shop..." The boy says as he slowly walks through the store.

"... yeah... a lot of the stuff here were sold at high prices." Hana answers, nodding her head a bit.

"I see..." The boy slowly walks through the store and stops at a door. He places his hand on the doorknob, trying to open it but it doesn't open. "If you don't mind me asking..." The boy looks towards Hana. His white hair moves as he does and his blue eyes pierce at Hana. "What's behind this door?"

"Nothing... It's just storage... the useless stuff..." Hana hesitantly answers.

"... they say... storage holds a lot of treasures..." The boy smiles.

"I- guess... but I don't have the key to unlock that door."

"Hmm..." The boy continues walking around the room, looking at different things in the store. "... So you want to give me the entire store... as a trade?" He asks.

"Mhmm..."

"You know... my men have been ordered to kill Yuki a few times. I question what's so unique about Yuki that she has such as huge target on her head..."

"..." Hana stares at the boy before looking down.

"You don't have to tell me why you want me to kill her... though I was hoping for some sort of answer." He smiles. The boys pocket vibrates and he pulls his phone out of his pocket, looking at it and then he places it back into his pocket.

"So are they doing the job now...?" Hana asks.

"Mhm... by the way- where's the other girl that was supposed to be here with you?" The boy asks.

"She said she was supposed to ready her sisters funeral..."

"Really- so she made you come here alone?"

"I guess..." Hana slowly says.

The boy smiles and tilts his head, looking back at the door. "That sucks honestly..."

"Hmm...?"

"Not only did she make you do her dirty work... but she also tricked you."

"What?"

POP CLING POP CLING THUD

"I thought you would have never came..." The boy smiles, looking in the direction of the person holding the gun.

"Yeah... well- Koda missed his bus." A girl slowly says, handing the gun to Koda.

"Did you have to kill her?" The boy asks, slowly walking towards Hana's dead body. "I was considering selling her to that brothel in Roppongi... You know how they are... always wanting newer and younger girls~" The boy smiles.

"... Didn't you do the same thing to that Ayame girl?" The girl asks.

"Shin..." Koda starts.

"Yup." Shin smiles up at Koda, his blue eyes piercing at Koda.
