Chapter 248: Dark and Windy Night
In the prison, Guren was sealed in the soil and could not move his limbs, nor could he form seals.
When Onoki finally appeared, Guren immediately raised her head and looked at him with hatred!
"Where is my partner?"
"In fact, you have already guessed it, haven't you?" Onoki asked coldly.
When Guren heard this, her whole body suddenly trembled, as if she had lost her spirit. Her eyes were empty and she did not want to believe it.
Then she shouted crazily, "You killed her! You killed her! She is just a child. Onoki, you will die a horrible death!"
As she shouted, two lines of clear tears directly flowed down.
"I originally thought that without these worries, you would still be able to change back to Guren that used to only have missions and killing people. But in the end, I found that I thought wrong, so I could only do this."
"You know too many secrets. You are the dark side representative of Iwagakure, so you will never live the life of an ordinary person. Either you live and continue to kill, or you carry everything and die."
"Obviously, you chose the latter. This is too regrettable."
Onoki said in the end with some regret, which was a great irony!
But Guren had collapsed, and the last motivation to support her to persevere had disappeared. So death was not something that could make her afraid.
Perhaps her only obsession right now was to not kill Onoki and avenge her family!
"Taiseki, the two of you can be considered to be working together. Send her some food later and then send her off tomorrow so that she can reunite with her partner."
Onoki said to someone behind him as he left.
Taiseki immediately agreed.
He and Guren used to be in the same department, specialized in dealing with dirty work, and his hands were also stained with blood.
However, unlike Guren, he had already resigned himself to his fate. He never really thought that he could leave and live the life of an ordinary person.
Perhaps one day, he would die in the mission, and exposing his body in the wilderness was his fate.
And Guren's partner was given to him by Onoki.
Now, he wanted to take Guren as well.
Looking at Guren in despair and numbness, Taiseki sighed silently in his heart and left.
When night came, he brought good wine and dishes to visit his former companions, also to let the other party be a full ghost.
However, the fine wine and delicacies were right in front of him, but Guren remained indifferent.
Right now, she was no different from a walking corpse.
Seeing this situation, Taiseki's face was extremely struggling. Finally, he remembered that in a certain mission, Guren had once saved him from the siege of the enemy.
"Sigh!"
With a heavy sigh, Taiseki saw that there was no one around, so he moved closer to Guren' ear and said in an extremely small voice, "I know you can still hear my voice. I said, you listen. Don't have any reaction. Consider it as returning the favor you saved me before."
There was a hint of emotion in Guren's numb eyes.
"Back then, Tsuchikage-sama handed over him to me to deal with. However, I was unable to do so in the end, so I secretly sent him to the Land of Grass. I found a villager and left after leaving some money."
"If nothing goes wrong, Yukimaru might still be alive."
Guren' eyes suddenly burst out with an intense light. Taiseki's words seemed to have saved her from hell.
However, she was not overly excited, because she remembered Taiseki's warning to her just now, so she did not do anything out of line or shout.
She just looked at Taiseki with eyes full of hope, as if she wanted to confirm again that her partner was still alive.
Taiseki gritted his teeth and nodded hard, "If nothing goes wrong, after all, that place is not safe. But I'm sorry, I can't save you. I'm telling you now because I don't want you to die with regret and despair."
"If there is a chance in the future, I will help you tell him who are you and let him live an ordinary life."
Hearing Taiseki say that he could not save her, Guren did not feel disappointed. Instead, she was very grateful to the other party for saving her daughter!
She was even more glad that she felt that it was a pity that this guy died there and turned back to save him.
This decision made her see hope again!
"Thank you."
Guren said in an extremely hoarse and soft voice. She did not want to ask for more. With this news, it was enough. The rest would depend on herself and whether that poisonous tongued guy was reliable.
At this point, she had no other choice but to gamble.
Then, she ate all the food in Taiseki complicated eyes.
After all, only after eating full would one have the strength to kill!
...
That night.
Guren was resting with her eyes closed.
Suddenly, she seemed to have sensed something. Her sharp eyes opened and she looked at the dark corner of the prison.
A guy wearing a golden cloud robe and a ghost mask on his face walked out from the dark.
With the help of the hazy moonlight, Guren saw the person and could not help but feel relieved. The other party had come to save her according to the plan...
Of course, it was also possible that he wanted to kill her in order to silence her!
Thus, the two of them looked at each other, neither of them taking the initiative to speak.
Until the other person leaned close to her ear and said in an extremely subtle voice, "According to the agreement, I came to pick you up. Do you know where the child is hiding?"
A complicated look flashed in Guren's eyes. It could be said that she had reached a basic foundation of trust with the other party.
"He is not here. He was sent away by someone."
Although Haru was a little surprised to hear this, in fact, it reduced the variables of this operation, and there was one less burden.
"I haven't done my business yet. Are you going to leave with me first, or do you want me to come find you later?"
Guren was silent for a moment. Although the most rational way was to escape without anyone knowing,
"Let me out. Give me some time. Come find me after you finish your business."
When Haru heard the other party's murderous tone, his teeth hurt a little.
Although he really wanted to teach Onoki a painful lesson, he didn't want to make the matter so big.
"Are you sure you want to do this? I might not be able to save you when the time comes." Haru said helplessly.
However, Guren had already made up her mind, "Don't worry. Although I am not Onoki's opponent, he can't easily defeat me this time!"
"I will make that bastard pay the price!"
When Haru heard this, alright!
Then so be it.
"When you can't hold on any longer, make this gesture crystal. Try to be as high as possible so that I can see it."
As Haru spoke, he made a very high gesture for Guren to see.
