Chapter 672 This is Sumire

Tokyo - Suburbs harbor, 7:30 pm

It was the first time she had actually wanted Yuhi to leave her early. But up until an hour ago, he stayed by her side. The amount of kissing they did remains firmly on her mind. Ah, her dear is so good at kissing. It felt like she was on cloud nine the entire time.

Unfortunately, they didn't do anything more than kiss. It's so unfair; why can't they do it when she is pregnant?

"First, you arrive late, and now your spacing out." An annoyed-looking Nakura Shin said.

Sumire chuckled. "Sorry, sorry. But it's just like you to be punctual."

The person she decided to drag along with her was Shin. Hino was the other option, but Hino had been just as overprotective over her since they discovered her pregnancy. Hino certainly nags more. Shin knows about it, but he won't nag her.

"I already planned to charge the Holy knights a large fee if I got injured."

Her sweat fell. "Despite what it looks like, our group isn't made of money." She trailed off. "So, did anything interesting happen?"

"In those cargo boxes are little children, female orphans from the looks of it."

Sumire's gaze dimmed hearing those words. So, it's enough that they stole the guns, but now they plan to do something with those children? She could think of all types of scenarios, forced prostitution or being treated as slaves, but no, in this case, it is much worse.

"Human weapons," Sumire mumbled. "They plan to turn those girls into killers."

Shin nodded. "I overheard them say something about them swapping ships mid-way."

"Then we should stop them at the harbor or jump onto the ship. Sensei, which one do you think is better?"

"We shouldn't be jumping into ships that we don't know anything about. Besides, if they are swapping ships halfway, don't you think they will blow up their other ship?"

"Oh that's true."

Shin looked at her with a troubled expression and then back at her stomach.

"You know I am going to prioritize your life over the deal, okay?"

"I know already." Sumire trailed off. "Sorry, and thank you, Shin."

She understands that this is reckless behaviour. But other than her, nobody else can stop this deal. Although there are thousands of members in the underworld, and a larger group may be better for this job. However, there is a higher risk of thousands of people dying.

"As for where the guns are," Shin pointed to many boxes in the harbor area. "I think it's obvious."

Sumire sighed deeply. "Well, it's good that we don't have to search, but now it's just too obvious. The boxes are so close to the sea. When we fight, we have to be careful that we don't knock them down." She trailed off. "Shin, how confident are you at shooting?"

"I suppose I am good, but why?"

"Can you shoot the two drones that have been watching us the past few minutes?"

Shin looked alarmed, and she chuckled. "Relax, it's not like we spoke about any sensitive information."

"You should have still said something sooner." Shin sighed and aimed his gun at the two flying drones.

Sumire used this moment to appear in front of one of the armed dealers. A man with blonde hair was wearing a strange bandana on his head and unusual sunglasses.

'These people dress weird.' Why does nobody in the underworld have a decent sense of fashion?

He seemed startled seeing her and aimed his gun clumsily; she only had to move away slightly for the bullet to miss her. Sumire swiftly pulled out her gun and aimed at the man causing him to fall down, leading to alerting the other men.

Seeing her, they quickly surrounded her.

She quickly changed the bullets to laser beams and aimed at the others. She trapped some against the boxes and on the ground.

"Rubber bullets?" Shin said from behind her.

"Right, this is why only I can do this job."

If it was anybody else, they would have killed these people.

"So your not going to-"

"Of course not! If I kill someone, it will be bad. I know when to cultivate good karma."

Besides, she plans to jump on Yuhi-san when he gets back. How could she do that reeking of blood? She will be cutting it close, so she won't have the chance to take a shower.

"Moreover, you could tell just now. These people are not good at fighting; they are very clumsy at using guns. Oh, but of course, not everybody here is inexperienced. I am sure the experienced ones are hiding in the shadows somewhere. Those are the ones I'll kill."

Shin raised his hand. "Forget it. I'll do that. Like you said, it's bad karma. I am fine with having bad luck, but you shouldn't." Shin looked towards her stomach. "-even though it's not obvious. Is there really two in there?"

At those words, Sumire laughed. "Mm, my dear is amazing."

"You sound so proud." Shin trailed off. "Is Nagawa okay with that?"

"Don't you start as well? What Sano thinks doesn't matter." Sumire mumbled.

Right at that moment, she felt blood lust and looked towards the large warehouse in the center. Her lips curved to a smile.

"See, they are the ones we have to kill." Sumire beamed happily. "Shin, can you aim that far?"

"Unlike you, my range isn't that good. I am better at close-range combat."

"Then I'll serve as bait." Sumire walked towards the center. She could hear Shin's protests, but it was already far too late. A rain of bullets came heading her way in seconds.

Sumire dodged every single blow and loaded her gun with real bullets. 'Just in case.' These people are attacking to kill her; unlike the ones earlier, their bloodlust is obvious.

The attacks became more aggressive, but she dodged every single bullet. Each movement in the air felt like she was dancing. Dance! Oh right, this is a good opportunity to test it. It became easier to dodge the blows when she used some of the dance moves.

Maybe it's because she has been practicing nonstop for days, but it feels like her reflexes have gotten stronger. Sumire increased her speed as she fired several bullets. She heard Shin fire from behind her, and some of the snippers went down.

He said he couldn't shoot from a far distance, but that was quite good.

But still, this is unusual.

'The boss ordered everybody in the organization not to kill you. He said he wants you taken to him alive. So nobody should be attacking you with the intention to kill.'

That's what Sano told her, and she even confirmed it with Eli. But, there is no doubt that these people want to kill her.
