Tokyo: Rabbit Officer and Her Evil Partner-Chapter 350 - 263: Sect Hierarch Beheaded_4

"Hey there, friend, calm down..."

Asahara Shoko forced himself to stay composed, saying, "Just name your price, whatever you want...be it power or status, as long as you nod your head and let me go, I won’t mistreat you in the future... If you kill me, Aum Truth Sect will collapse, and you won’t gain anything..."

"Oh?"

A voice filled with curiosity came from behind. Asahara Shoko felt a weight on his right shoulder, as a blood-stained katana rested on it, the blade aimed at his neck.

A strange chill ran down his spine, Asahara Shoko felt his blood reverse its flow, his brain swelling with blood. For a moment, he considered turning and fighting back with a knife but recalling the gruesome fate of his subordinates, his resistance vanished.

"Let me ask you a question," Fushimi Roku tapped his shoulder with the blade, speaking softly, "Do you think money is more important to me, or you?"

Asahara Shoko was taken aback, instinctively replying:

"...Me?"

Fushimi Roku moved the katana closer: "Think again."

Asahara Shoko swallowed, stretching his neck to stay away from the blade: "Isn’t it...money?"

"Think again." Fushimi Roku pushed him into the corner with the blade.

Asahara Shoko suspected he was being toyed with, but he didn’t dare utter a ’no’; thinking carefully, he figured he shouldn’t say money was more important, his own life was at stake: "It should still be... me, right?"

"Neither you nor money matter to me." Fushimi Roku moved the katana away.

Asahara Shoko just let out a sigh of relief, turned his head, and saw the butcher knife raised, his heart jumped. He wasn’t sure where he went wrong, instinctively asking, "Then who is important?"

"Without you, that’s important to me."

As soon as the words left his mouth, the blade rushed forward, enlarging before Asahara Shoko’s eyes. He hadn’t even reacted, when suddenly a chill spread below his neck, and he felt nothing.

Soon after, his view spun uncontrollably, landing on the cold floor. That’s when he saw the hallway behind him was splattered with blood, his followers and core members had all become corpses, lying tilted on the ground with frozen expressions of terror.

Demon...

Definitely a demon’s messenger...

The last trace of thought crossed his mind.

Asahara Shoko’s head fell to the ground, Fushimi Roku didn’t spare it a glance; he felt no joy, having just accomplished what needed to be done.

His work wasn’t over, now wasn’t the time to rest.

There’s still Shirakawa Miki, she’s alive, leading a group of believers and searching for their enemy’s traces.

Fushimi Roku wiped off the blood, using a sword has this hassle, it needs regular cleaning; otherwise, the congealed blood sticks to the blade, reducing efficiency in slashing.

Fushimi Roku’s gaze fell on the Sarin Poison Gas Canister; before the broadcast announced the start of the trial, he already noticed that counting everyone present including himself totaled 159 - impossible for him to kill himself, so there must be another way to earn points.

But Fushimi Roku didn’t care; even without the Hide and Seek trial, he intended to kill every one of these people.

"Hmm, this designer is really disgusting..."

Finally, his eyes landed on the red and blue wires.

From the start, Fushimi Roku cared about the total points number, neither 160 nor 150, but oddly 159, a mix of zero and whole numbers, even if excluding the accidentally entering Matsusaka Shintaro, it’s still 158...Plus, he believed, the designer wouldn’t let someone unfit appear in the Trial Field.

In Japanese culture, Japanese traditional kimono patterns often bear numerical significances, notably in techniques like Yūzen dyeing and Komon, where numbering is linked to color and pattern complexity - 159 can symbolize Blue Wren pattern, while in "Color Viewing" and "Dress Code Manual," 159 corresponds to grade insignia "Indigo."

Considering this, Fushimi Roku held the katana, casually slashing upward, the tip splitting the blue wire in half.
