Chapter 97 Artificial Weapons 33

The dark cemetery looked even more gloomy and mysterious in the drizzle. A blond young man stood in front of the tombstone holding a black umbrella.

He ran his fingers across the cold stone platform, and because he used too much force, the raised stones cut a tiny cut on his fingertips.

A trace of spilled blood was washed away by the drizzling rain and flowed down the gray surface of the tombstone.

Isn’t this ridiculous?

Furiya Rei twitched his lips. He actually began to hope that the legend was true. But before he knew it, he was already standing here.

What if it is really possible?

He looked up at the night sky and let the umbrella in his hand slip. The cold air around him swept the icy rain towards his face.

The short light blonde hair was wet by the rain in an instant.

But the eyes are still dry.

He hadn't shed tears for a long time.

When asked where she buried Cherry Brandy, Bermode was very reluctant.

"He's already dead, but as a great intelligence expert, can't you let him go?"

This is what he answered at that time.

"After all, he had been my partner for so long. I am very sad that he died just like that. Can't I go and pay my respects?"

Vermode was silent for a long time, and when she spoke again, Toru Amuro could imagine her impatient expression.

"Forget it. I can't control what you want to do. Just don't dig up his grave. It's up to you."

The public security department is also inquiring for information related to cherry brandy.

Tori Amuro calmly submitted a written report of his death.

The report began with his own handwriting: Cherry Brandy, aged 20, dead.

If there was a tomorrow, he would be almost 21 years old.

Cherry Brandy's birthday was set to be the day he was picked up and brought back to the organization.

But birthdays have no meaning to the people in the organization. At least Sakura Yasushi doesn't know what a birthday is.

Amuro Toru specifically looked up the birthday listed in his profile. He had already planned to carefully select the first birthday gift for Sakura that she would receive in her life.

He said his life was enough.

How can it be enough?

He only lived for 20 years, and the time he actually spent outside the laboratory was pitifully short.

He has not seen the real world yet, he should go and see it.

Toru Amuro closed his eyes facing the rain, laughed at himself, and muttered to himself: "If that's true."

If there really is a god.

"I want to see him again."

"Even if you have to pay with your soul?"

…

The blond young man suddenly opened his eyes, and his whole demeanor changed drastically. One of his hands was on his waist in an instant, and his usual pistol was hidden under his clothes.

"Who is it?"

From his tone, it seemed like he would shoot the head off anyone who dared to peek at him in the next second.

The god played: “…”

You are so nice, Bourbon.

In comparison, Officer Matsuda is really a little angel.

The god, whose confidence in the success of the sale had dropped, began to falter. He lowered his body, sat cross-legged on his own tombstone, and looked Bourbon in the eye.

To be precise, because of the effect of [Pretending to be a God], his body in Bourbon's eyes was always shrouded in a hazy mist, and he could not see himself clearly.

This realization gave the gods some confidence.

"Hello, I am the Resurrection God." He started talking nonsense after just one serious sentence. "My main business is to promote the return of souls from the underworld. This activity is coming to an end. If you want to participate, you'd better hurry up. I am very busy."

Amuro revealed an expression that showed he was overwhelmed by the huge amount of information, and he had already taken out part of the gun.

He frowned and looked at the god Zou, whose face he could not see clearly. The latter cooperated and flew around him twice.

"What's that look in your eyes? Are you doubting Master Ben Kami?"

Akiyama Kanade did something he had wanted to do for a long time. He flew above Amuro Toru and tried his best to ruffle his short light blond hair into a mess.

"Don't doubt Master Kami!"

Damn it! Who told you to always knead cherries?

Toru Amuro's eyes became more suspicious and sharp, but after a moment of silence, he put the gun back.

"Can you get him back in exchange for my soul?"

When the god heard that something was going to happen, he quickly landed in front of him and nodded, "That's right, listen to me, I won't let you..."

"Can."

Amuro Toru did not wait for the chatterbox to finish. His expression was calm, and his brain was working calmly, "But not now. I still have things to do. Give me a year, or half a year."

He paused, staring at the blurry face of the god, "But after I die, how can you guarantee that he will come back to life?"

"Wait," Shenmingzou was confused by him, "I didn't say I would kill you."

He explained, "Resurrection does require you to exchange your soul, but because your soul is very strong, you won't die if I take away a part of it. You will just be weak for a while. You can recover if you take care of it."

Shenming Zuo showed a sweet smile, but when he realized that the other party couldn't see it, he put it away in dismay, "What do you think? Is it a good plan? I am a honest man."

Amuro Toru's expression was slightly startled, and his eyes suddenly became eager, "So..."

“No.”

He was anxious, "You can take my entire soul, as long as..."

"No." Shenmingzou emphasized again, "There is only one chance to resurrect, and it can only be used on one person. People can't be too greedy." He was still a little angry as he spoke, "You should care about yourself a little bit, right? Do you think no one cares about your life or death?"

Toru Amuro was stunned.

Shenming Zou saw his expression and felt a little sorry for him. He flew around him again and said, "Anyway, this is what happened. If you still want to continue after understanding this, we can start the transaction."

Amuro Toru looked at the god who was blurry and excited, and felt as if he was dreaming. No matter how he thought about it, it was too unscientific.

But if it is a dream, one does not want to wake up.

He asked, "If I give a part of my soul, will he really... come back to life?"

Shenmingzou put his hands on his hips and said, "I've already told you not to doubt Lord Kami!"

He hinted, "Not just the people who died recently, even if they died a few years ago, if you want, Ben Kami can bring them back to life."

Amuro Toru lowered his eyes, and the tombstone without a name on it came into his sight. "But only once."

"Yes, I told you that people should not be greedy. So have you thought about it? Who do you want to give the one and only chance to?"

I would choose Scotland.

Although Akiyama Kanade believed that Bourbon really cared about Cherry Brandy and even included him in his territory, it was not a choice between a member of an organization that was like a bomb and a close friend who had died many years ago.

Akiyama Kanade thought so and looked at Amuro Toru. The blond young man stared at the empty tombstone with a distant gaze. Even at this moment, it was difficult to read what the other person was thinking from his face. Bourbon was really an expert in controlling his expression.

But in the mouths of instructor Onizuka at the police academy and the convenience store clerk, he used to be a different person.

The young man at that time was full of vigor and vitality, and his joy, anger, sorrow and happiness were all shown on his face.

See you again.

Akiyama Kanade also wanted to see that kind of Furuya Rei again. No need to hide emotions, just smile when happy, cry when sad, no need to force, no need to pretend.

What kind of expression would he have if he saw his friend who had died many years ago reappear in front of him alive and well?

Akiyama Kanade couldn't wait to see that scene.

At this time, the blond young man slowly said: "Cherry Brandy, no, his name is Akiyama Kanade. He was 20 years old and is buried right in front of me, under this gray stone. I want to save him."

This time it was Akiyama Kanade who was stunned.

He couldn't help but ask, "Why? I can clearly see... you have more important friends, don't you?"

"You even know this?" Amuro Toru glanced at him, and after a while, he said softly: "I killed him, I should give it back to him."

There was no negative emotion in his tone when he said this, it was just a calm narration.

Akiyama Kanade was confused.

No matter how you look at it, Cherry Brandy's death had nothing to do with Bourbon, right?

Does this guy like to carry everything, whether good or bad, on himself?

"Okay." He said angrily, "As you wish."

As you wish!

You really want to see Scotland, but please be a little selfish at this time!

Amuro Toru's eyelashes trembled slightly, and when he raised his eyelids, tiny drops of water gathered on the top, about to fall. The rain that never stopped soaked his clothes. He swallowed, his voice slightly hoarse, "What do you want me to do?"

Shenmingzou said unhappily, "Close your eyes and wait."

He was going to teach Bourbon a hard lesson today, to let him know that only cherry brandy would listen to him unconditionally and without any reason.

But the real world is cruel!

After extracting a portion of the soul from Bobon's body, the shelf of resurrection water lit up, and a crystal clear bottle flew out by itself and floated into Akiyama Kanade's hands. The bottle was filled with liquid that sparkled with tiny starlight.

When he saw this thing for the first time, Akiyama Kanade thought it was filled with the Milky Way. There couldn't be a more beautiful liquid in the world.

This one bottle of resurrection water is more valuable than the other two products, and requires the most souls. Only a soul as pure as Bourbon can afford the price.

In fact, Akiyama Kanade could have kept the bottle of revitalizing water for himself - maybe he could use it for himself.

Anyway, Bourbon's wish is to revive Cherry. That's easy. He can just make a new backup body and fool the other party for the rest of his life. He originally planned to fool Higashino Kazuki in this way.

But he didn't do it in the end.

The corpse of Scotland had lain in his warehouse for too long.

Now that I think about it, maybe he had thought about saving him when he saved his body?

As for how to explain it to Bourbon.

While waiting for the resurrection water to take effect, Akiyama Kanade returned to Bourbon. The blond young man was surprisingly obedient and really closed his eyes.

"Don't blink, just listen to me."

When he is not wearing a vest, Akiyama Kanade has dignity. Even if he knows that the other party cannot see him clearly, he will be embarrassed to lie to others.

The blond young man moved his head slightly to indicate that he was listening.

Akiyama Kanade let out a breath and said slowly, "As a Kami, I have to respect the opinions of both parties when resurrecting others. I have already asked the man named Cherry Brandy you mentioned. He said he doesn't want to come back."

"He also asked me to tell you not to blame yourself. His death has nothing to do with you."

"He won't come back from the dead, but there's no need to grieve for him. He just..." Akiyama paused, looking past Bourbon into the distance, "He's going back to his hometown soon."
