He didn't speak, but slowly walked forward step by step.
Under Sato Miwako's bewildered, pained, and confused gaze, Hanyu Nan gently but firmly embraced her from behind, her body trembling slightly from excitement and struggle.
This hug carried a warm power.
Then, he extended his right hand and gently but firmly covered Sato Miwako's hand, which was gripping the gun tightly and whose knuckles were white.
“Miwako,” he called her name for the first time, his voice low and gentle, “Officer Takagi is right. The oath you took, the duty you bear, does not allow you to do this.”
Sato Miwako's tears flowed even more fiercely, her body relaxed slightly, but the pain in her heart did not lessen at all.
Are we just going to let this bastard get away with it?
However, Yuzuru Hanyu immediately changed the subject:
"but……"
His voice remained calm, yet carried an undeniable resolve.
"I am not a police officer."
"I never took such an oath."
"so……"
He held Sato Miwako's hand, slightly adjusted the angle of the gun, and kept it aimed at the bomb maniac who had relaxed because he saw hope.
"This sin..."
"This pain, born of hatred, that forces one to shed blood..."
"Let me take responsibility for you."
His lips brushed close to Miwako Sato's ear, and in a voice only the two of them could hear, it was like a devil's whisper, yet also like an angel's salvation:
"I will bear all the sorrow and all the karmic obstacles."
"You just need to... continue being the upright and righteous Sato Miwako."
...
