Chapter 142 - Save Or Kill?
"Why, Okaa-san? Why do you have the heart to betray grandpa so much, um?" Sifeng said quietly.
Sifeng kept looking at his birth mother's beautiful face. Sifeng already didn't care if he was recognized by his mother or not. Reality remains reality. The woman was still Sifeng's biological mother, whether she wanted to admit it or not.
Sifeng didn't need any acknowledgment at this time. Sifeng just wanted to make his mother aware that all of this was wrong.
Madam Haruhi is allowed to hate Sifeng, but Sifeng doesn't accept that Madam Haruhi also betrays Grandpa Watanabe.
"Grandpa is a good person, Okaa-san. Why did you betray Grandpa Watanabe?"
Madam Haruhi glared at Sifeng. "Huh? You're asking me the reason why I betrayed that old man, huh?! Listen to me, Boy! That old geezer kicked me out 24 years ago. And since then I'm part of the Dojin-kai.
"And you know the reason for all that, don't you? It's all because of you being born, Damn it!"
The woman aimed the muzzle of the gun at Sifeng's forehead.
At first, Sifeng was so shocked that his body jumped, but moments later, Sifeng finally made up his mind.
"Do it, Okaa-san! You really have no other choice right now, right? Now decide! Do you want to save or kill me? But to me it's the same." Sifeng said with a bitter smile.
Sifeng knew very well how much that woman wanted to kill Sifeng long ago. That's right, everyone wants to kill Sifeng.
No one wants Sifeng's presence in this world. It's been like that ever since. Not only his biological mother, his stepmother was also trying to eliminate Sifeng from this world. Madam Haruhi and Madam Wang hated Sifeng so much that they attempted to assassinate Sifeng several times.
However, Sifeng did not know why he was still alive until now. It was also possible that the King of Hell didn't want Sifeng to come to Hell yet.
If he had to choose, Sifeng wanted to be reborn into someone so loved by many. No matter Sifeng will live very poor and have nothing. All Sifeng wanted was a complete family that loved him dearly.
Ah, but that doesn't matter anymore. For Sifeng, life is still living the destiny that has been written. It's just a matter of how Sifeng follows fate so that he can be guided by fate, Sifeng thought that he was being wise.
"So decide now, Madam Haruhi! You want to save or kill me!" Sifeng spoke, without referring to Madam Haruhi as 'mother'.
"You're so good at talking, huh?!"
His mother's words made Sifeng come to his senses from blaming fate. It was clear that Madam Haruhi was very upset. It looked like she was about to pull the trigger.
Sifeng was getting more and more happy provoking his mother. If he had to end up in this place, then so be it. At least, Sifeng did something good before he died. And Sifeng would die in the hands of his own birth mother.
"You brought me to this world, you are also the one who has the right to remove me from this world, Haruhi-sama. Believe me! I've been trying to understand you all this time, but you never gave me a chance to do good to you."
"Kheh! You're so good at talking like your father, huh?! All of Zhang's descendants are sweet-mouthed, but rotten-hearted," snapped Madam Haruhi.
"I'll keep talking until you choose to save or eliminate me, Haruhi-sama?"
Sifeng paused his speech. Tears slowly dripped from her eyes even though Sifeng had been trying to hold them back for a long time. As it turned out, Madam Haruhi's attitude never changed. The woman who gave birth to Sifeng still hates Sifeng to this day. Sifeng felt hopeless and didn't expect to get any more recognition from Madam Haruhi.
Sifeng forced himself to smile.
"Thank you, Okaa-san. You have given me life. You have given me eyes to see the world. You are also the one who gave me breath. Even though, you never considered my presence, I have no problem with it. Sorry for my presence, you are suffering. Now, I'd be happier if I died at your hands, Okaa-san."
"Shut up, you Rancid Boy! Don't call me like that!!" shouted Madam Haruhi, sounding very frustrated.
Madam Haruhi's body trembled, so that the gun she had pointed at Sifengng's forehead, was also shaking at this moment.
"Now decide, Okaa-san! You want to save me or you want to kill me! I will not to you," said Sifeng, smiling bitterly since earlier.
Silence for a moment.
Everyone at the location was waiting for Madam Haruhi's decision. There were only two choices, save or kill Zhang Sifeng.
BANG!!
The gunshots were deafening.
Sifeng still closed his eyes. Sifeng was sure that the gunshots were gunshots that made hot lead pierce his brain. Damaged all nerves and broke Sifeng's skeleton.
However, it turned out to be wrong. It wasn't the gunshot of Madam Haruhi's hand, but a shot into the air by someone who had just come into the dimly lit room.
Slowly, Sifeng opened one eye. In front of him, there was still a woman. The woman Sifeng called 'Okaa-san', despite refusing.
The woman who gave birth to Sifeng, Madam Haruhi. Madam Haruhi still put the muzzle of the gun against Sifeng's forehead.
Sifeng looked up, in case there was blood dripping. It was not. The gunshots had come from a shot into the air of a man who had just entered this dimly lit room. Sifeng just found out about it.
"Kenshin-kun!" called Madam Haruhi as she turned around and hugged the man who had tattoos all over his body.
The man did not return Madam Haruhi's hug. The man walked over to Sifeng. He fiddled with the muzzle of his gun, touching the battered face of Sifeng, who had previously been beaten by seven of his men.
Bruises on face will definitely have no effect on the owner of the 'Meteorite Jade' shard. Even though there are scars, the owner of the special stone doesn't feel pain in the end.
The man lifted Sifeng's chin with the muzzle of his gun.
"So, this boy will continue the Okami-kai organization? Hmm, looks like the old geezer chose the wrong successor," he said as he lightly smacked Sifeng on the cheek with his gun.
"What do you mean, Uncle? Okami-kami-kai what? Don't speak in a language I don't understand!" shouted Sifeng, as usual.
In fact, Sifeng didn't even know that his grandfather was the 5th kumicho yakuza of the Okami-kai. And has announced to the Japanese mass media, that Watanabe Takumi is the successor, the 6th kumicho. Ah, even Zhang Sifeng was not familiar with those terms.
"Haruhi!" called the tattooed man.
"What is it, Honey?" said Madam Haruhi who had been by her side.
"Do you prefer to be with me or this child, huh? If you prefer me, kill this child right now!" said the man. His gaze was sharp, aiming straight at Sifeng's dark eyes.
Sifeng instead whistled casually, imitating his brother's cool style.
"I've been telling Haruhi-sama to kill me, Uncle. But, it seems Haruhi-samw can't afford it."
Sifeng smirked at Madam Haruhi who seemed to be suddenly stricken with anxiety.
"Hmm, eh, just leave him alone, Ken-kun! He could be our weapon to destroy that old geezer's organization, right?" said Madam Haruhi.
Madam Haruhi wrung her hands, looking nervous. It seems her motherly instincts are starting to surface, or does Madam Haruhi have other plans? Ah, we all do not know.
Kenshin's gaze shifted from Sifeng to Madam Haruhi. Kensin felt that there was something strange about the woman.
"Are you starting to care about him, Haruhi?" Kenshin moved the muzzle of the gun from Sifeng's chin to Madam Haruhi's temple.
Madam Haruhi was silent, cold sweat dripping from her forehead.
"Hey! Keep your weapons away from Okaa-san, Uncle!" shouted Sifeng, making Kenshin's 7 children act quickly. They stuffed their mouths with cloth and sedated Sifeng with a re-anaesthetized handkerchief.
"Come with me, Haruhi!"
The man grabbed Madame Haruhi's hand roughly. They both walk away from the place.
After a while, Madam Haruhi returned to the place where Sifeng was being held. Madam Haruhi is accompanied by two men, who are Kenshin's subordinates.
Sifeng was still unconscious in a limp standing position because his hands were tied to the pillar using chains.
Madam Haruhi smirked. She had to do something he should have done a long time ago. However, Madam Haruhi did want to give Sifeng some pain when Sifeng passed out.
Killed while conscious, must be very painful. So, Madam Haruhi intended to kill Sifeng while Sifeng was unconscious like he is now.
Unlike before where there was too much drama, this time Madam Haruhi put it right on Sifeng's head.
Sifeng's eyes slowly opened as he felt something stick to his forehead. Sifeng saw the image of Madam Haruhi holding a gun in front of Sifeng.
Bang!!
The gunshots were deafening.
