Chapter 388 Koizumi Akako: What the Hell is Wrong with These Crazy Couple?
Meanwhile, after hanging up on Akako, Hakuto used Annihilation Maker to immediately create countless magical beasts.
These magical beasts had no combat ability whatsoever. Their only function was tracking. As soon as these magical beasts found Shouko, they would immediately notify Hakuto.
Upon receiving the news, Hakuto would rush over. Hakuto could even use the Anywhere Door to appear instantly.
On the other hand, Akako was completely losing her mind at that moment.
Akako never expected Hakuto to be such a lunatic.
Was it really necessary?
Koizumi Akako just wanted to ask… Was it really necessary?
All Hakuto had to do was hand over the black pearl, and she would release Shouko.
But Hakuto, that lunatic, didn't even ask about the terms. He just hung up the phone, not caring whether Shouko lived or died.
She even wondered if Hakuto wanted to use her hands to kill Shouko?
Akako looked at Shouko, her expression extremely unpleasant. But Shouko just looked calmly at Akako, a hint of mockery on her face, without any fear.
"Don't you think Hakuto is crazy? I just wanted to get the black pearl from him. As long as he handed it over, I would let you go. But why is he willing to burn everything to the ground rather than even discuss terms? He just hung up. Are you sure he doesn't want to use me to kill you?"
Akako was starting to doubt her life. Were Hakuto and Shouko really a normal couple, or just a couple on paper?
Completely lost in her self-doubt, Akako now had no way out. She either went all the way down this path and ended up being found by Hakuto, which would surely end badly.
Her other choice was to give up, let Shouko go, and maybe Hakuto would let her off the hook.
But there was no guarantee. What if she let Shouko go and Hakuto still didn't spare her? Then Akako would also die without a burial place.
Akako couldn't help but curse Hakuto for being a lunatic. If Hakuto were even slightly normal, he wouldn't have refused to even discuss terms. He was clearly out of his mind.
Seeing Akako's expression, Shouko smiled. "Hakuto will not accept any threats. You can kill me. You can torture me. But after Hakuto catches you, he will take revenge on you a hundredfold, a thousandfold."
Akako's face darkened, and she didn't speak. Given how Hakuto had just hung up without even discussing terms, Akako could imagine that Hakuto would definitely do something like that.
Who negotiates like that? Normally, you should have a good discussion first, and if you can't reach an agreement, then you make threats or do something else. But Hakuto didn't even discuss. He just directly broke Akako.
Shouko didn't say anything more. Her eyes held a mocking look as she stared at Akako.
Since the other party had kidnapped her, they had to be prepared to bear everything. Shouko wasn't afraid of death. She just felt a little regretful.
If she had to die, at least let her have been with Hakuto before dying. What a pity that even until death, she was still a virgin. (T/N: I don't know why she was still a virgin even after going to a love hotel with Hakuto.)
"Are you really not afraid of death at all?"
Akako looked at Shouko, unable to understand. Was the other party really not afraid of death at all? Wasn't that a bit unreasonable?
Shouko looked calmly at Akako and said, "Because I believe Hakuto will avenge me. And even if I die, he will remember me forever."
'Crazy. Yagami Hakuto was a lunatic, and this Kirishima Shouko was also a lunatic.' At this moment, Akako finally saw clearly that both Hakuto and Shouko were lunatics.
Hakuto didn't care about Shouko's life at all. Shouko didn't care about her own life either. Who would act like them?
But unfortunately, she had run into these two lunatics.
And what made it even more unbearable was that Akako found herself caught between a rock and a hard place.
Akako realized that whether she advanced or retreated, there was no way out.
Before kidnapping Shouko, Akako had considered many scenarios. But she had never considered this one. What the hell? What kind of lunatics were these two?
"Do you think there's a possibility that I let you go, and you have Hakuto let me go?"
Akako was scared. If Hakuto were a normal person, Akako wouldn't be afraid. But Hakuto was not normal. Neither was Shouko.
One wasn't afraid of Shouko dying, the other wasn't afraid of her own death. Given that, could she expect these two lunatics, who weren't even afraid of that, to let her go?
No way, right?
So Akako was scared. Akako wasn't afraid of death, but she was afraid of a fate worse than death.
Earlier, Shouko had said that Hakuto would use a scalpel to cut her flesh into nail-sized pieces. Akako didn't even know how many cuts that would take.
Flaying alive would be too few.
So Akako was scared. That's why she asked Shouko whether letting her go would make Hakuto let her go too.
"Give me the phone. I'll ask Hakuto if he's willing to let you go."
Akako handed the phone to Shouko. Shouko dialed the number. The call connected.
"It's me."
Shouko's voice came through the phone to Hakuto's ears.
"This kidnapper asked me to ask you, if she lets me go, can you let her go too?"
"Impossible. But I won't kill her. However, there will be some punishment."
Shouko had the phone on speaker, so Akako heard Hakuto's words too.
"Aren't you afraid I'll kill Shouko?"
"I am afraid. But if something happens to Shouko, you'd better kill yourself. Because as long as you're alive, even death will be a luxury for you."
Akako finally broke down. "You're f***ing crazy!"
