Chapter 1068 Be your own master
Chapter 1068 Be your own master
The next day, early in the morning, it was still dark.
Deep in the snow-capped Kamakura Mountains, there is a dilapidated hunting house that is leaking from all sides.
Next to the fire that was about to go out, Shen Wu, who had fallen into a deep sleep, suddenly felt a heart palpitation. She woke up suddenly, turned over and sat up.
Her movements were not small, and she also woke up Kagura beside her. Her fever had subsided at this moment, but she was still a little confused. She rubbed her strange-colored pupils and looked at Shenwu in confusion.
"Shenwu, what's wrong?"
Shenwu frowned, and just when she was about to speak, the voice of Shota Shiina came to her ears.
"Are you awake? Shenwu, Kagura, good morning, but breakfast has to wait for a while, you can actually sleep a little longer."
Shota Shiina, who was fidgeting with firewood to boil water, smiled and raised his hand in a very friendly way to greet them.
Kagura was too dazed to react, but Shenwu was stunned.
From childhood to adulthood, they have been living in a very harsh and even cruel environment, and they are used to turning a blind eye even when sleeping.
This was the first time in her life that she had experienced Shouta Shiina's gentle and homely greeting, and she was very unaccustomed to it.
But Shen Wu was not an ordinary person after all. He immediately shook his head to regain his senses, and reminded in a solemn and low voice:
"Shiina Shouta, someone is approaching here very quickly. The person is very heavy and very fast, incredibly fast."
"Hey~"
Upon hearing this, Shiina Shota was very happy:
"No wonder sir values you so much, Shenwu, you are indeed amazing. You can sense it from such a distance. But don't worry. Mr. just came back from hunting. He hunted a, uh, sika deer."
"hunt?"
Hearing this answer, Shen Wu was also confused. Shota nodded:
"Yes, sir, he said that your bodies are relatively weak now and you need to supplement with high-nutrition protein, and our supplies have been exhausted, so sir went out hunting himself early in the morning."
Upon hearing this, Shenwu and Kagura, who had already woken up, couldn't help but look at each other.
how to say? Although they knew that Du Weiguo was deliberately trying to win people's hearts, they still felt uncontrollably moved.
This is so evil! The number one person in the dark world has been regarded as a god. Who can let him condescend to hunt in person today?
After a while, a very strong bonfire rose in the fire pit in the center of the hunting house, heating the entire hunting house.
On top of the bonfire, a few wooden strips were used to make a simple stand, on which a skinned and huge male sika deer was roasting.
"Crack~"
At this moment, the whole body of the stag had turned into a golden color, and the fat on its body dripped onto the firewood, splashing out a few sparks.
At the same time, the strange burning aroma instantly filled the entire space.
Shota Shiina stood up quickly, carefully turning the stag over and spreading salt evenly on top. The alluring fragrance suddenly became more intense.
"Gulu~"
Shenwu and Kagura swallowed uncontrollably almost at the same time and lowered their heads in shame.
They are all capable people, their physiques are far superior to ordinary people, and their recovery speed is naturally astonishingly fast. After the supplements and rest last night, most of their bodies have recovered.
Especially Shenwu. She was not injured at all. She was just locked in a cold environment and starved for several days, and she was a little exhausted and low on sugar.
Yesterday I ate some hot food and slept for a few hours. At this moment, my physical strength has recovered to 7%.
Kagura's injury was more serious, but now her fever had subsided, her wounds had scabbed over, and she had regained her basic mobility.
This is the abnormality of top ability users. Not only do they possess all kinds of weird superpowers, but their physiques are also otherworldly and their recovery speed is unimaginable.
If an ordinary person were to go through such a torment like Shenwu, he would have to shed his skin even if he died.
Shenwu and the others swallowed loudly, and Xiangta, who had become smart, naturally heard it. He quickly pulled out a dagger from his waist and looked at Du Weiguo with a naive smile:
"Sir, the outer layer of the venison is almost done. Can I cut it?"
Du Weiguo shook his head:
"Shouta, the main function of your paratrooper dagger is to pierce. The blade is too thick and is not suitable for cutting meat. It affects the taste. Shenwu, you cut the meat."
Shota Shiina's dagger was given to him by Du Weiguo. The standard paratrooper dagger of the British Royal Parachute Brigade, although sharp, is in the shape of a dagger and is indeed not suitable for cutting.
Suddenly being called by Du Weiguo's name, Shen Wu was stunned. Then his eyes widened and he looked at Du Weiguo in astonishment:
"Me, I cut? You, you let me cut the meat with life thread?"
"Life Thread" is the invisible filament controlled by Shenwu. This cool and slightly middle-of-the-road name was given by herself.
Du Weiguo rolled his eyes at her angrily, took out a small matte Tang knife and handed it to her:
"What are you thinking about? With this, you usually cut things, so you must be pretty good at it."
Upon hearing this, Shen Wu's face suddenly darkened, but a different feeling also surged in his chest.
She couldn't tell whether Du Weiguo was praising her or making fun of her. She couldn't tell clearly, but she didn't feel disgusted.
Seeing her dazed, Du Weiguo handed the Tang knife to her hand again:
"Take it? What? You only have super powers and can't use a knife?"
"Uh~"
Subconsciously taking the Xiaotang knife, she carefully felt the sharpness of the blade with her fingers. Shen Wu suddenly raised her head and looked at Du Weiguo with stern eyes:
"Sha Shen, are you so confident? Aren't you afraid that Kagura and I will suddenly join forces to attack you after we fully recover?"
"Haha~"
Hearing her question, Du Weiguo chuckled and shook his head, but did not answer immediately.
He took out his cigarette case, slowly pulled out a cigarette, picked out a piece of burning wood from the fire, lit it, and gave one to Shota.
Slowly exhaling the smoke, he replied in a leisurely tone: "Don't be afraid, you are no match for me, even if we join forces, it won't work."
Shen Wu's eyes flashed with a dangerous light, and his tone became a little cold:
"That's right, the two of us are indeed no match for you, but if you add Mr. Shouta Shiina, who is a scumbag, I'm afraid even you will be in a hurry, worrying about one thing and losing the other, right?"
As soon as these words came out, the originally harmonious and lively atmosphere suddenly became tense and tense.
Shota Shiina suddenly stood up, his eyes instantly blackened, he clenched the paratrooper knife in his hand, and looked at her with an unkind expression.
The shadow at Kagura's feet seemed to come alive in an instant, hesitating like a poisonous snake's letter, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
"Crack~"
Du Weiguo suddenly stretched out his hand and slapped Shen Wu on the back of the head, neither lightly nor hard. His tone was loud, as if he was casually lecturing a junior:
"You're naughty, aren't you? Go get to work quickly, why are you talking to me here?"
After receiving this blow, Shen Wu covered the aching back of her head. Her eyes straightened.
Shenwu looked at Du Weiguo stupidly. She had never had such an experience in her 20 years of life.
She knew very well that of course Du Weiguo didn't really hit her. He denied it. With his terrifying power, he exerted enough force that this slap could directly blow her head off.
This time, it was more like the feeling when an elder teaches a junior, the element of joking is far greater than the lesson, and there is even a trace of indescribable tenderness.
That's right, it's warmth, an emotion Shen Wu has never felt before.
The next moment, Du Weiguo refused to say anything and directly pushed the marching pot into Shenwu's hand, his tone became more and more rude:
"What are you looking at? You're stupid, why don't you hurry up and cut the meat? And you, Kagura, your injury is healed, but your skin is so itchy, right? Give me a break."
Kagura was really frightened of Du Weiguo. Being called out and scolded, the shadow under her feet that was about to move instantly shrank back, like a frightened bastard. Shenwu was holding a small Tang knife in one hand and a marching pot in the other. She was still thinking about it in a daze, and Du Weiguo suddenly raised his arm, as if to fight.
"Tsk! Are you still in a daze?"
"Don't, don't, I, I'll cut it."
Shenwu dodged almost subconsciously, stood up suddenly, and walked to the roasted deer carrying a knife and pot.
Her face was red and she was extremely ashamed. She was a little unfamiliar with her current performance and a little awkward, but she didn't feel bad at all.
How can I put it, compared with the cold Shenwu Xiang, she now has a touch of humanity!
Shen Wu is a person of action, and she has already taken action as soon as she speaks. She is an extremely powerful ability user, in addition to the super power of controlling invisible filaments.
Her physical fitness, eyesight, speed, nerve reflexes, and muscle control are all top-notch.
Although he had never cut a whole deer or used a small Tang knife, Shenwu got started after just two cuts.
In the dazzling light of the knife, the movements of the divine dance are smooth and smooth, which is pleasing to the eye. The cut venison is also as thin as cicada wings, neat in size, and falls into the marching pot as accurately as snowflakes.
With her splendid skills, even if she doesn't become a dead assassin in the future and instead becomes a professional teppanyaki chef, she still has a bright future, hehe.
"Wei, Mr. Wesley, you are so confident that we won't really do anything?"
Kagura's timid voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Du Weiguo's random thoughts.
Du Weiguo turned to glance at her and nodded:
"Well, I'm indeed very confident. I bet you won't do anything to me, especially you, Kagura. I'm sure you won't do anything to Shota."
Upon hearing this, Shen Wu suddenly froze, stopped moving, and pricked up his ears. Even Shota turned his head and looked over curiously.
Kagura asked even more cutely and in astonishment: "Why?"
After exhaling the smoke for a long time, Du Weiguo flicked the cigarette butt into the fire:
"Kagura, although the tragedy of the Shota family's destruction was not caused by your own hands, it is inseparable from that beast Mitsui Takizawa.
As a dead soldier under his command, you were indirectly involved, so you cannot escape the blame. However, your conscience is still lingering and you feel guilty, so you will definitely have no face to attack Shota again. "
Du Weiguo accurately guessed what was on his mind, and heard him praise that his conscience was still intact. Then he thought about the countless nastiness he had experienced before.
Kagura's two-color pupils suddenly turned red, her expression became very tangled, and her tone trembled:
"Conscience, I, I don't deserve it. I have done many wrong and bad things before, I~"
Du Weiguo had long discovered that Kagura's loyalty to the Mitsui family had already been shaken, and she began to question the correctness of her actions, and even had a death wish.
Du Weiguo waved his hand and interrupted her:
"Kagura, before you were just a sword and gun held in the hands of others. Although you did many bad things, you were forced by others and did not have your own consciousness."
After a pause, Du Weiguo stretched out his hand to hold her shoulders, and said in a more seductive tone:
"Kagura, from now on, no one can force you to do anything. You are your own master and can act according to your own judgment."
"My own master~"
Kagura repeated in confusion, but a faint but irrepressible light rose in her eyes, which was the flame of hope.
At this moment, Shenwu, who had her back to Du Weiguo, was shaking unnoticeably, and her mood was obviously not calm.
After a while, the sky was bright, and a whole stag was eaten clean by a few big-bellied men. Du Weiguo clapped his hands and stood up, and said in a calm tone:
"Okay, you continue to stay here for a few days. I have some things to do outside. I will pick you up in a few days."
Du Weiguo did still have things to do. Although the assassination of Mikhail had to be put on hold for the time being, supporting the new head of the Mitsui family and interfering with the Iwasaki family were all earth-shattering events.
As for leaving them here, there is nothing wrong with it. This place is located deep in the hinterland of Kamakura Mountain. In the cold winter, the mountain is blocked by heavy snow, so it is unlikely that anyone will enter the mountain.
Shenwu and Kagura have now been initially surrendered by Du Weiguo, and they no longer have the will to resist, let alone attack Shota Shiina who is the victim for no reason.
Besides, Shota is not a helpless little white sheep. Not only can he heal himself, he can also control crows, and he may even be a top expert with the ability to regenerate.
In a real fight, as long as they are not instantly killed, the two sides can open at almost 55. Once the distance is opened, Shota will definitely win.
As for survival, there is no need to consider this issue at all. Low temperature and food are not a problem for them.
"Yes, sir."
Shiina Shota has now been completely subdued by Du Weiguo, his loyalty is full, and he regards his words as golden rules, so he naturally responded without a word.
However, when Shenwu and Kagura heard that Du Weiguo was leaving, their eyes flashed almost at the same time, seeming hesitant to speak.
Du Weiguo smiled and curled his lips, his tone slightly teasing:
"Don't worry, I didn't go out this time to start a war with the Mitsui family. That battle has already been fought."
Although their defenses have been loosened, the long and loyal service of more than 20 years has already penetrated into the bone marrow and become instinctive, and it is impossible to disappear immediately.
Sure enough, upon hearing Du Weiguo's words, the faces of the two women showed an obvious look of relief.
At this moment, the South China Sea, Luzon Island, the southwest tip, Batangas City.
The Philippines, a small island country in the South China Sea, has been colonized by Spain, Citi, and Japan for hundreds of years since the 14th century. It did not become independent until the end of World War II in 1946.
Except for the capital Manila, warlords in other places are divided into separate regimes. They listen to orders but not propaganda, and attack each other. Public security has always been chaotic.
Batangas City, located at the southernmost tip of Luzon Island, tightly strangles the throat of Port Galera. While it is chaotic, it also reveals a trace of strange prosperity.
The local government's ruling power is very weak, only during the day. At night, it becomes a land of lawlessness, a world of gangsters, and a paradise for crime.
In the west of the city, there is Barry Street near the pier. There is also a local saying for this street, Ghost Street.
This street is not only dotted with dozens of chicken houses with red lights, but also shops selling flour, guns, and women and children.
Rapes, fights, fights, stabbings, and bloody conflicts in the street are commonplace and happen almost every day. They are no longer strange.
At the northernmost end of Barry Street, there is a two-story restaurant. It is said to be a restaurant, but it also functions as a brothel, bar, hotel, grocery store, and information station.
Because it is located in the tropics, most of the buildings here are made of wood, and the overall tone is gray.
However, this restaurant has an extremely rare brick structure, and the entire restaurant is painted a dazzling bright yellow, which looks very abrupt and a bit out of place.
The name of the restaurant is Lemon, Lemon Restaurant.
It rained heavily in Batangas City today, and there were only a few people on the street. It was not meal time, so the store was particularly deserted. There were not a single customer, except for a young waiter crawling on the table to catch up on his sleep.
"Bata, bata~"
The store door was suddenly pushed open, and a tall and thin figure wearing a black cloak walked in, soiling the originally shiny and spotless floor.
"Damn it, are you eating or staying in a hotel?"
The man who was woken up rubbed his eyes and straightened up, and asked in the local dialect angrily.
"I'm looking for tiger prawns."
The visitor slowly took off the hood of his cloak, revealing his gray hair and beard. His voice was low and hoarse, and he spoke English with an accent. He was clearly the Illuminati Pope Masar.
"What tiger tail shrimp? There is no such person, you old fool, you are not here to cause trouble on purpose, are you?"
The boy stared at the dirty floor, thinking that his boss had severe mysophobia and that he would have to mop the floor again in a while, and his face suddenly looked so ugly that he looked like he had eaten cakes.
Marsar couldn't understand the local dialect he spoke at all. His eyes suddenly lit up, and then he ordered in a low voice:
"Go and find your boss."
At this moment, the boy's eyes were empty and dull, and he stood up mechanically. He was being controlled by Masar.
