Never Not
Ch. 37: Reverse Rinse
A few minutes earlier, the compact walkers looked up when the videotron screen suddenly scrambled. They immediately gathered on the shoulder of the road because they were sure that the broadcast of Black Shadow would take place soon. At the Metropolitan Police Department, a police officer yells at detective Shu and others if Black Shadow is on air. Then they turned on the television in the room. The same thing happened to Yuriko, Seina, and Kei Ayano who focused on their devices in their respective places. It doesn't matter if it's twelve o'clock tonight.
Right, before long appeared the inscription "Black Shadow Comeback". Uniquely, just showing someone's voice. The screen was dark black without a single speck of images.
"Are you the Black Shadow that the fools out there adore?" said someone who was heard directly by the audience.
"Who is he, huh?"
"Whose voice is it?"
"Why is the screen dark?"
That was some of the reaction of the audience at the opening of the Black Shadow live broadcast. They also wondered who the owner of the voice was.
"Who do you think you'd dare expose the crimes I've done over the years? You want to know the truth behind the disappearance of that viral girl, right? Look ... He's right next to you right now! Even you can't do anything to help him get out of this place." The voice in the video is heard again.
The police suddenly jumped to hear the hostest girl mentioned. At this moment, people instantly learned that the one talking to Black Shadow right now was someone related to the missing hostess girl.
"Does this mean that Black Shadow and the girl are being held hostage by the owner of this voice?" seto Tanaka's.
"Check where this broadcast location was taken," Inspector Heiji asked his men.
Everyone refocused on hearing the man's words. One by one the confession sentences that were thrown from his mouth made the public dumbfounded. Among them are about the reasons he employs foreign workers, money laundering, to the reason the hostess girl was held captive. Of all his confessions, some of them began to second-guess the identity of the man.
"Record his words as evidence!" pinta inspector Heiji returns while continuing to hear the expression of the crime that the man opened in the unspictured video.
In the next instant, the public was stunned by the appearance of a figure of a ministerial official who was plastered clearly and large on the screen.
"Ah, he's the social minister, Kento Hayase!" shouting people.
Right now, Black Shadow was smiling coldly while recalling Mr.'s remark. White said the other day that they had to make Hayase Kento himself take his cover off in public. Because, the man's crime is too neat and has no gaps to know.
Black Shadow recalls last night's fight with Hayase Kento's men.
"If it's like this, I can die in vain," Black Shadow muttered inwardly as the infusion hose continued to choke him.
He pretended to be unconscious in an attempt to stop the man who had been sent to kill Shohei. Yes, after his body was exhausted and looked unconscious, the big tall man immediately released an infusion hose wrapped around him. In fact, Black Shadow was intending to counterattack right then and there. However, since the man pulled out a cell phone to contact someone, Black Shadow decided to remain unconscious. He needs information on what the man's next move will be and who is behind it.
After the man contacted his boss, he immediately took Black Shadow away somewhere. Until arriving at the warehouse, the masked man who was embraced by the community was still pretending to faint. He was placed in a chair next to the hostess. When the tall man turned around to pick up the rope, Black Shadow immediately stood up and stuck the anesthetic plaster behind his neck.
"Ichi (one), ni (two), san (three)!" In the count of three, the man before him instantly fell unconscious.
Black Shadow gave a frail smile then pulled the man to take his place in the chair earlier. He tied his legs and hands, then gagged the man's mouth with a small camera that was stored in his pants pocket and covered his head.
Black Shadow turned his head towards the girl who looked terrified. "Are you Miss Hostest?"
The girl nodded slowly.
"I'll save you from here, but not now. Be patient for a while!" black Shadow's message convinced the girl.
Right now, Black Shadow immediately jumped down. Coinciding with that, five of Kento Hayase's men instantly attacked him. No doubt, fights are inevitable. Black Shadow gave a twisting kick to five people at once. He climbed on the back of one of Kento's men who fell, then beat and kicked every opponent who approached. The man whose back he was on tried to stand up, thus making Black Shadow topple over.
Two people came holding both hands to lock his movements. One of them ran towards him while holding a large piece of wood. However, Black Shadow swung both of his legs to kick the opponent's stomach as well as elbow the two people who blocked his hand. It's not that hard. Given, he had learned the technicalities of self-liberation from Shohei.
He ran backwards and purposely rolled several empty drums forward to make them fuss after him, then threw one drum towards the two opponents chasing him from the left side. He stood gallantly on the pile of drums that formed the pyramid, then leaped beautifully giving a kick that landed perfectly on each of the opponents heads.
Their fight was apparently still recorded on camera in the mouth of the man who replaced Black Shadow. The people who were watching the Black Shadow fight scene with some Kento bodyguards could only hold their breath. So did Seina who seemed worried about the safety of the masked man.
Just about to step up, a voice with a chipmunk effect roared in the room.
"Mr Hayase Kento, may I give you a little advice?"
Hayase Kento looked left and right for the source of the voice.
"As long as you can't see your own back, you don't deserve to boast. Man always forgets that he can fall while still on the ground. As you are now, this is your downfall right now" said the man with the voice of Chipmunk.
Hayase Kento finally realized the sound came from a speaker placed in the stomach of his men who were still locked.
"Inspect all your filthy actions. You have committed a violation of foreign labor by paying below the minimum standards set by the government. Then laundering money for years through the casino. You put all your ill-gotten possessions in the form of casino coins. Then you exchange the coins back in cash. Every time you run your mission, you take advantage of that hostest girl. When the illegal casino is raided by the police, the casino owner who is your man uses the excuse that all his money was taken away by the girl and made her a fugitive. You didn't run out of sense and asked the girl to smuggle all the money in the form of diamonds that were bought directly at the jewelry store. It has been proven from the recognition of the jeweler who said the lady bought two diamonds of the same size with fantastic value. In order not to be caught, the two diamonds are used as doll eyes. Unfortunately, you found out the hostest girl was trying to betray you, so you decided to keep her. Isn't that so Mr Hayase Kento?"
Mr. Hayase Kento looked dumbfounded. "Ba–how ... can you know everything? Si–who are you really?" ask her with wide eyes.
A man sitting in a Hospital bed with an infusion still attached to his hand said, "I Am ... Mr. Whites. The controller of Black Shadow."
Mr. White smiled coldly while recalling the events of last night. Precisely, when he had just regained consciousness. That night, Seina who had just arrived, was surprised to see some nurses were in Shohei's room.
"Shohei-kun, since when did you wake up?" asked Seina who immediately approached him with a happy face.
"I think it was an hour ago" he said in a weak voice.
From Seina, he finds out that his phone has been destroyed. Shohei asks his mother to bring him the tablet stored in his room. The tablet is very important because it stores the application, username, and contacts he uses with Rai in launching the action. He contacted her and found out that Rai had made a dangerous big move without her, which was to enter the warehouse where the hostess girl was.
"I'll do my act tonight, but none of this will go smoothly if the main culprit doesn't show up" Rai said this afternoon when Shohei contacted him.
"You've done your best" Shohei praised.
Thanks to Rai as well, he knew of the casino coin-clad money laundering scheme that Kento Hayase was carrying out. Because, Rai used to be a high-class gambler and once conquered a large casino in Macau. So, such a dirty way has also been used by him. However, the smuggling of illegal money through diamonds set in the eyes of the doll was discovered by Shohei himself before he was attacked and stabbed.
Currently, the police came to the location of the warehouse located in the map of the location of the Black Shadow live broadcast. They found Kento Hayase with his six men tied to a chair with their mouths gagged with paper. They also immediately saved the hostess who was still there even though the rope had been removed. It seemed that the girl was too weak, so she was unable to walk.
Seto Tanaka picked up the camellia petals strewn across the warehouse floor. His head went around to search for the whereabouts of Black Shadow. Without him knowing, it turned out that the masked man had just come out of the warehouse.
Leaning against the outer wall of the warehouse, Black Shadow was communicating with Mr. White passed through the earpiece that was attached to his ear.
"I'm so glad you're recovering. You know, because you're critical, I'm so driven to dismantle the man's cover, let alone he's made you like this," said Black Shadow who was still furious.
"Arigatou, you've tried hard even without me. But, it seems that the person who attacked me back then was not Kento Hayase's man," replied Mr. White remembers the stabbing.
"If not him, then who?
Mr. White remained silent. He remembered a name he had not known.
who wants to join you in taking the look of Sholeh?
