PPFC 356 - Futaba's
Afternoon in Hamu City looks beautiful when the sunlight illuminates the city which mostly has a pedestrian bridge considering some of the creeks in the city.
Fei Chen smiled warmly as his body was buffeted by the sunset rays. Fei Chen's goal to Hamu City was to ensure the existence of the entire Black Crow samurai.
Fei Chen traveled through Hamu City and met several times with samurai who were asking for wages or taxes. Most of the population could afford to pay, but the samurai who felt they could be in control took advantage of their situation as members of the Black Crow.
Harassing or venting their savagery on women has become commonplace even some who deliberately exceed the tax payment because the money is used for personal gain.
Fei Chen met all the samurai like that until he finally arrived at a river around which there was a simple building. There the occupation is a little and quieter and it looks like the fish are being dried in the sun that will sink.
‘Fish salty?’ Inner Fei Chen while trying to taste the fish that was being dried. Before long she heard a hysterical scream from the house close to her standing.
“Do not! I beg! Isn't the money right! Last week you asked me to pay taxes on 20 gold pieces! I've paid it off!” The voice of the hysterical woman sounded.
Fei Chen sharpened his sense of sight and immediately put on a mask using his identity as an Onigari. After that Fei Chen listened clearly to what was going on inside the house.
"Shut up! Why your taxes haven't paid off isn't it obvious it's because we need more money! Better pay and if you can't afford it you should serve the five of us!” Shake a man in there.
“Release! Please-” The woman's voice disappears as if swallowed by the earth and only the man's voice is heard.
“Your body is beautiful Futaba! If it's not wrong you're also Gara's former concubine, right? We've traced your identity and this is the reason why we did this on purpose! I feel bad for Mr. Kuroma but I want to enjoy you before him!
“It looks like tonight will be long!”
“True, the atmosphere here is also quiet so don't be shy about yelling spoiled Futaba!”
The laughter of the five men echoed and the moment Fei Chen opened the door. The five men stopped groaning on Futaba's body and saw one of them stuffing Futaba's mouth with a washcloth and her hands tied with rope.
“Hey, you who-” One of the samurai moves forward to approach Fei Chen full of anger but is held captive by the other samurai.
“Wait! That mask! Isn't the mask the same as Onigari?!? ” The Samurai said as he pointed at Fei Chen.
Futaba thrashed out for Fei Chen's help. Now Futaba's condition is very tempting where the top clothes are open and show their beauty, while the bottom shows the inside of the thin clothes.
“What do you want?! Are you interested in this woman?!” One of the samurai grinned widely and approached Fei Chen.
“That's your talk..” Fei Chen approached the man and smacked his face to pieces, “I don't like it!”
Fei Chen's actions caused the other four samurai to keep their distance and one of them immediately took Futaba as a hostage.
“Don't come any closer or I'll kill this woman!” The samurai touched the tip of his katana to Futaba's smooth chest.
Fei Chen did not ponder and kept going, “Do you think such a threat affects me?!”
“Said don't come near!” The samurai again shouted and made Futaba shake her head so that Fei Chen would not come closer.
Fei Chen took a breath and disappeared from everyone's sight. Two seconds later Futaba screamed obscurely with her mouth still covered in cloth as she saw the hands and head of the samurai holding her hostage lying on the floor.
Futaba's reflexes poked her body at Fei Chen like trying to hug him. The condition of his hand tied to a rope and his mouth that was gagged with cloth made Futaba difficult to hug Fei Chen to reduce her fear.
Fei Chen who had gotten a warm chance Futaba was silent for a while. Finally he felt uncomfortable because the condition of Futaba's clothes were almost completely detached.
‘I'm also a normal guy.’ Fei Chen looked at Futaba and gulped. Then said softly and softly while removing the cloth that had clothed Futaba's mouth.
“Mistress, calm yourself and trim your clothes. Everything's gonna be fine. I will protect you,” whispered Fei Chen gently.
“Huu... Hix... Hikss..” Futaba cried after the cloth that had clothed her mouth came off.
Fei Chen attentively removed the rope that tied Futaba's hand. Then Fei Chen turned his head around staring at the three remaining samurai.
“Basic men looking for a chance in narrowness! I have to feel that body even if I have to die!” One of the samurai who could not stand his salivary attack Fei Chen.
Fei Chen pushed Futaba's body slowly and aimed his Qi-coated punch at the sharp katana that was eyeing her. The samurai was shocked when his katana broke even more so now he saw Fei Chen punch towards his neck.
BUCK!!!
The loud sound of Fei Chen's punch sent the samurai's life flying. Fei Chen smiled coldly from behind his mask as the two remaining samurai fled. Deliberately Fei Chen let them escape because all of that would make Kuroma not act recklessly in Hamu City.
“Searching for opportunities in narrowness? I don't know such a term. And you're dead so you can't feel it. It's a pity..” Fei Chen looked at the samurai he killed, then turned to look at Futaba.
Sooner or later Fei Chen would rush towards the Kuroma residence which was now the headquarters of the Black Crow.
Seeing Fei Chen save himself, Futaba bowed her body and thanked him.
“Thank you Master for saving me,” said Futaba sincerely.
Fei Chen turned his face and gulped because Futaba had not tidied up her clothes yet. Obviously Fei Chen saw two smooth white hills, so it caused the blood of the King of Hell to flare up.
“Why turn your face Mister?” Futaba asked.
Fei Chen sighed and looked at Futaba seriously. Fei Chen guessed that Futaba was thirty-five years old. Her maternal and frail face was very innocent to Fei Chen's eyes.
“Mistress, lucky I'm a man unlike them. Quickly trim your clothes. And after this go from this place.” Fei Chen turned his body and stepped out his legs.
‘Why can I forget... Ah this is embarrassing!’ Futaba was half-dead embarrassed as she covered her chest and tidied up her clothes.
After confirming his clothes, Futaba asked Fei Chen who stepped closer to the exit.
“Gentleman where are you going?” ask Ichiba.
"Of course I'll go. I have no reason to linger here.” Fei Chen replied and returned to his feet but he was intercepted by Ichiba.
"Master, please take me with you. I'll pay you! Twenty pieces of gold for you.” Futaba offered Fei Chen twenty pieces of gold that she had taken from the samurai Fei Chen had killed.
Fei Chen sighed and revealed the contents of the room in the King's Room that held many treasures. Suddenly Futaba choked and coughed.
“Mr... Who are you exactly?” Futaba asked seriously.
“Did you hear the name Onigari?” Fei Chen asked back and Ichiba nodded his head a sign that he had heard the name Onigari.
“Yes, it's me.”
Futaba was surprised and immediately kept her distance.
“Till down Madam. I'm not gonna do anything to you. If I wanted to, I could do it now. Especially tonight the sun looks very bright, I'm having another mission.” Fei Chen said as he looked at the moon.
“Can I help you?”
Hearing Fei Chen who asked made Futaba want to ask Fei Chen to take her to her friend's house outside the city precisely in the fisherman's settlement.
Fei Chen also drove Futaba there but there was no figure of his friend. Moreover, the fishy smell that stings is very pronounced in this settlement.
"Madam, this place has just been massacred. Probably about five hours ago.” Fei Chen explained and instantly Futaba looked extremely shocked and fainted.
Before fainting Futaba mentioned her friend's name, “Sayuri..”.
Fei Chen restrained Futaba's body and brought the woman's body to his house. Fei Chen cleaned the corpses of the samurai using black flames then accompanied Futaba for a few minutes before rushing towards the Kuroma residence.
“Hukong, come out!” Fei Chen called out to Hukong and ordered the Heavenly Ape to bury the bodies of the people in the fishing settlement of Hamu City.
