Chương 55: Safe But Sick

My arms aren't numb anymore. I could elbow Shuu's gut, but I don't know if I'm strong enough to make him drop his knife from the strike... Wait, he was hurt earlier. Where did Ryuu kick him again? His left side... That's the side I can dig my elbow into!

Alright! You only got one shot at this, Haru!

"Give me control of this entire area, and I'll consider letting him go." Banchou sneered at Ryuu. Meanwhile, I slowly tightened the zip tie around my wrists. 

Pft, good thing Shuu wasn't keen enough to cut off the extra length.

"If I do, you'll leave him alone." I could tell Ryuu was trying with all his might to keep from killing the bastard in front of him in fear of me getting hurt.

"Haha! You're really going to give it all away? For a little boy?!" Banchou laughed hysterically. Even Shuu scoffed beside me.

Good, he hasn't noticed me lifting my arms. Go on, keep laughing.

"He's more than worth it." Ryuu growled back in response.
