After the executioner left, Chief looked at his now flushed palm, with a half-dreamed gaze.
His words still ring in his ears.
You have three days ...
It's not just a threat. That's a warning.
His eyes now shine with revenge, anger and hatred as he's now clenching his palm firmly, restoring the messy bones inside with a horrible crackle voice that made anyone whoever heard it cringe in horror.
You have three days ...
This is not kidding anymore.
He doesn't need three days. First, he just needs to get rid of that damn Shinichi Kudo!
Slowly, a horrible smile spread across his face.
He's very, very confident, that Shinichi Kudo did shrink into a small kid. Somehow he could enlarge, he didn't know how. But, that's not a problem, he'll find the answer, anyway!
His smile turned into a cruel grin.
He loves to play games like this!
"Heh? Dragon whiskers? Do you think we are in the wizarding world, we can get dragon whiskers?" Kaito Kid protested in a very loud voice. Strange things needed to restore this Kudo into his original form.
Kudo hissing in annoyance "Keep your voice lower, Kid! Okay, first of all, it's not me who saying we need dragon whiskers! It's written in this book!" Kudo's index finger tapped firmly and impatiently on the thick cover of the red book he had just read.
"And secondly ..." Kudo paused dramatically, but somehow Kid already knew what he's gonna say "It's because of you I turned into a kid like this! That means it's your responsibility, Kid!".
"But, but ..." Kid is now protesting in a weak voice. In case you're forget, Kaito Kid doesn't like confronting the wizards, moreover the witches!
Suddenly, an idea, which he thought was brilliant, came into his head. Kid said it out loud "We can buy it in the store! It's easier and a lot safer!".
Kudo saw it as if Kid was out of his mind "Buy in the store? Which store? Such a store is indeed only exist in the wizarding world! So, isn't that the same? You must go there! Then, after you're there, just find a dragon and slash its mustaches directly from its face! It's original and cheaper! If you buy at the store, lots of them are fake! Oh, and make sure the dragon is a female dragon".
Kid is now gaping silently. The veins in Kid's forehead began to twitch.
WHAT. THE. HELL?
A female dragon?
This Kudo ...
It's very easy for him to say found a dragon and slashed its mustaches!
It's a dragon! DRAGON, for goodness sake!
Not a cute, harmless little puppy ...
If the dragon is angry, which is obvious, he's the one who got the blow of fire!
Plus, how does he know if the dragon is a female? By checking it? Oh, surely he's going to get burned, even before he can get close!
No way! Nu-uh! He doesn't want to go! No, no, no and no!
"Better find out how to heal wounds on Kazuha Hattori's arm!" Kid suggested aloud.
Kudo shook his head with pursed lips "Can't found the recipe". Then he glanced at Kid as he realized what he was saying, but before Kudo could say anything, Kid hastily interrupted "Don't you wonder who's with him? You know, about what Yamamura said earlier ..."
"He certainly is not me! Don't change the subject, Kid! But, since you have mentioned about this, that's why you need to find the dragon whiskers as soon as possible before ..."
'Indeed you are' Both Kudo and Kid completely missed the owner of a pair of red eyes that had been watching them.
Yamamura always felt awkward with this situation.
Now he's waiting for the spirit of a football player he has just picked up, who is watching his family weeping over his dead body in the emergency room. Sudden death is always more emotional than a predictable ones.
While waiting, Yamamura's eyes catch a familiar figure. Apparently the figure was not aware of his presence there.
Isn't that ... Chief?
Where he's going?
Kazuha's eyes widened in shock and disbelief as Heiji suddenly kissed her. Slowly her eyelids closed. From his kiss, Kazuha could feel Heiji's fear, despair, longing.
His love ...
Kazuha's eyes opened again, realizing what had just happened. She pushed Heiji away from her.
No!
She can't!
She shouldn't enjoy the kiss!
Kiss is for people who love each other. Not for people who married in order just to win the bet!
"Kazuha?" Heiji asked in a broken voice, which is now as devastated as his heart and face. He looked at Kazuha with wounded eyes. He doesn't understand. Wasn't that ... Kazuha kissed him back?
"Don't you ..." She swallowed painfully. "Don't you ever, do it again!" Kazuha said in a trembling voice, holding back her tears and anger.
Suddenly Heiji was filled with anger and despair to explain to her "Don't you understand, Kazuha? I did make a mistake, I admit it! But I really love you! I married you not for winning a bet ..."
"But you did take the money, didn't you? How much did you win? How much is ..." Kazuha gulped "my price to you?".
When Heiji didn't answer, Kazuha continued hoarsely "I may not remember you, but I certainly know, at least I must marry you for loving you". She laughed bitterly "My destiny is really bad. Died at a young age while pregnant, with a husband who doesn't love me. Now even when I'm dead, I still have to see you again?".
An uninvited guest suddenly was at the door.
"Sorry to interrupt!".
