Shankar was too afraid to go outside as he leaned against the wall. Perhaps he just stumbled upon a serial killer who wants to kill everyone in the warehouse.
He looked at the clock on the wall. The current time was 1:05PM now.
Shankar felt uneasy about this, his life was in very great danger. However, at the same time, he couldn't only stay in this room any longer and just waiting for Kyoujurou and his juniors to come back. Sooner or later he need to get out from this room and made an escape to the outside.
Unfortunately, when Shankar opened the door, he saw another young white-haired man dressed in a uniform similar to the earlier man with a white jacket, clenched both of his fists tightly as if he was very angry right now.
Shankar was terrified when the another guy slowly turned his face at the him. He wore a mask too, but his mask was a scary-looking one instead.
"Another one!?" Shankar's face was looking pale. Too bad for him, he was doomed.
Shankar finally fainted as he collapsed on the floor.
But don't worry about him. This wasn't the end for him yet.
...
The fugitive was successfully arrested, and and the Erionian military cops were already left the hospital. No one had expected or wanted this incident to happen in here, but yeah, it did.
"If you asked about that fugitive's name, then his name Tohru Sakuraba, He was suspected to be a member of Dark Tunnel organisation, yet the authorities couldn't find any proofs for the accusation against him" Kuromi, the mortician spoke to the Slayers as he leaned on the wall near the morgue.
"Dark Tunnel?" Murata raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, he was the one who responsible for a series of mass riots inside Sector 88" Kuromi added.
"I heard that he was planning to launch a bomb strike in the city squre" Giyuu said.
"A bomb strike!?" Murata was half-shocked.
"How unbelievable" Kanae's expression changed. "He's a very dangerous guy after all"
"At least the authorities will send him back to the prison, and now we don't need to worry about that guy anymore" Kuromi assured.
"Hahahahaha!"
Out of sudden, they saw a mental patient wearing a lab coat (the same mental patient from the previous chapter) running away as a group of doctors, nurses and security guards were chasing him.
"Stop right there!" one of the guards shouted.
"What the..." Giyuu was half shocked.
"Seriously, not him again!" Kuromi sighed as he then joined the chase.
"Alright, now let's chase that guy" Giyuu said.
The three of them followed the mortician from behind.
...
"Shankar, wake up!"
"Manushwari-san, are you okay?"
Two hours passed, and finally Shankar slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he realized was Kyoujurou, Takeuchi and Yushiro were staring at him.
"Ah!" Shankar was frightened out of sudden as he quickly raised his upper torso.
"Good thing that you're awake" Kyoujurou smiled.
"Can I have some water, please?" Shankar requested.
"Here" Takeuchi gave him a bottle of mineral water. Shankar quickly drank it.
"I can't believe it, There isn't one...but two of them" Shankar said.
"Two of them?" Kyoujurou raised his eyebrows.
"Yes! Two of them! I saw the another one with my own eyes!" Shankar was worried.
"Looks like this isn't a good situation" Kyoujurou wrapped his arms around his chest.
"Of course! Who knows if they're actually a serial killer or an alien in disguise or something?" Shankar speculated.
"Perhaps they're searching for something in here, i guess" Tanjirou guessed.
"Can someone please tell me what's going on in here?" Shankar sighed.
Beep! Beep!
Shankar just received a message from someone via his smartphone. When he checked the message, it was from his own manager.
"Good, now I got my salary in this month deducted" Shankar dropped his smartphone on the floor before started crying.
...
"Ogienko-san!"
Otto had already knocked the door several times, yet no one opened it from inside. It looked like Petro wasn't in the house now.
"Perhaps I've come in the wrong time after all" Otto sighed.
Otto then walked away from the door as he briefly looked at his digital watch. The current time was 5:55PM now.
However, as he reached the street, he saw a certain blonde boy came from another direction. That boy was none other than Zenitsu, and he was on his way towards his gramps' house.
"Eh? Zenitsu?" Otto raised his eyebrows.
"Ah, good evening, Otto" Zenitsu greeted him with a gloomy smile.
"Are you okay, Zenitsu? You don't look very well" Otto was concerned about him.
"Don't worry about me, I'm fine" Zenitsu assured. "Besides, I'm going to my grandpa house"
"Why?" Otto asked.
"He's fell sick so I need to visit him" Zenitsu answered.
"Well, I can prepare the dinner for your grandpa if you wouldn't mind" Otto offered.
"Are you sure, Otto? I felt like I was bothering your time" Zenitsu said.
"It's fine, Zenitsu" Otto chuckled. We're friends, right?"
Both of them soon walked towards Jigorou's house.
