Chapter 219
"*Cough, cough, cough. *"
Akame leaned over and coughed, spitting out blood in large mouthfuls.
The severe pain of the energy in her body being burned made her whole body tremble, but Akame didn't make a sound.
Tatsumi in the distance wanted to rush up to help, but just as he made a move to move forward, an orange laser entered the ground in front of his feet. A hole the size of a finger appeared, and blue smoke came out.
Mine's meaning was very clear: don't come up to send yourself to death, the enemy that even Akame couldn't face head-on, you can't deal with it even more.
Now Akame's state was not optimistic, with multiple bone fractures all over her body and a penetrating wound on her chest.
"9, 7, 3, 7, 9."
Akame roared a string of numbers, which was clearly a code.
Tatsumi had just joined the night raid unit and was not familiar with this kind of code, but Mine understood it.
Three orange lasers shot toward the front of Tatsumi, these three orange lasers gradually approached Tatsumi, meaning retreat.
Akame dragged her wounded body and began to retreat gradually. Mine's firepower disappeared. Tatsumi also understood the general situation and began to retreat slowly.
Akame stared fixedly at Su Xiao, expecting Su Xiao to chase after her.
Su Xiao glanced at Akame, then glanced at Mine in the distance, and finally glanced at Tatsumi. The three retreated from three directions, he could only chase and kill one.
"Forced to use this method?"
Su Xiao suddenly erupted and rushed toward one person at full speed.
His target was Tatsumi! He didn't believe Akame would stand by and watch.
Akame gritted her teeth, the enemy was a hundred times more cunning than imagined, she could only give up the original strategy.
At this time, Tatsumi understood the current situation, he had become a burden.
Thinking of this, a big stone seemed to press on Tatsumi's chest, his gaze gradually became firm, this boy was gradually maturing.
Tatsumi looked at Su Xiao who was rushing over quickly, and then looked at the bottomless river three meters away.
With a leap, Tatsumi jumped into the river from the pier. This required great courage. You have to know that Tatsumi's entire chest cavity was slashed open, even if he wasn't drowned, he might die of bacterial infection.
With a *thud*, Tatsumi fell into the water.
"A boy with backbone."
Su Xiao's direction of running changed, changing to Mine.
There was another *thud* in the distance, Mine also jumped into the river. Although Mine was not old, she was an experienced Black Ops member.
Su Xiao's footsteps stopped. It was a waste of talent for these night raid members not to participate in diving events.
"As you wish."
Su Xiao chased Akame this time. Akame turned and ran after discovering Tatsumi and the other two jumped into the river, running faster than a rabbit.
If there were no bloodstains along the way, Su Xiao would doubt whether this girl was injured. She ran really fast, and Akame knew the terrain of the Imperial Capital very well.
Su Xiao was somewhat hesitant during the pursuit, he was thinking about whether to continue chasing.
He had been chasing and killing enemies since noon, and now it was sunset. Today, he didn't seem to be fighting to the death with the enemy, but participating in a sports meet.
First was a marathon (chasing Leone)
Then was a mud long jump (jumping over visible swamps one by one)
Also acted as a spectator for diving once (witnessing Tatsumi and the other two jump into the river)
Now started a new marathon (chasing Akame)
Akame's escape direction was inside the Imperial Capital. The environment inside the Imperial Capital was complex, which was more suitable for her to escape. Before, Leone chose the forest because of the influence of the Teigu Lion King, 'beasts' preferred nature.
A girl covered in blood was running in front, and a few minutes later, a man holding a sword was chasing behind.
This scene scared the residents of the Imperial Capital, and some residents notified the guards in the Imperial Capital.
Of course, chasing and killing people on the street in the Imperial Capital was not allowed, and a large number of Imperial Capital guards were dispatched.
They didn't intercept Akame in front, but instead stopped Su Xiao half an hour later.
"Stop, put down the sword, you murderer."
A guard captain raised a gun with a strange shape. The guards in the Imperial Capital would be equipped with thermal weapons.
"Black Ops business."
Su Xiao showed his Black Ops identity proof.
"Sir, I'm sorry."
After Su Xiao showed his Black Ops identity proof, the guard captain's attitude underwent a 180-degree turn.
"I am chasing a Night Raid member. Notify your chief captain immediately, seal all exits of the Imperial Capital. The fugitive is a girl who looks eighteen or nineteen years old, carrying a sword, black clothing, injured, no suspicious personnel similar to this can enter or leave the Imperial Capital."
"Yes!"
The guard captain stood straight, his face full of cold sweat at this time.
These Imperial Capital guards were arrogant in front of civilians, but in front of the Black Ops, they all turned into obedient little sheep.
The Black Ops were generally under the direct jurisdiction of the royal family or individual generals, and had the right to execute first and report later. Even if they were slashed on the street, they could only blame their own bad luck, and their families wouldn't even get compensation.
This was the Imperial Capital, power was everything, and those in power could trample on the dignity and body and mind of others at will.
It was only reasonable for such an Empire to be destroyed.
The guards in the Empire were quickly mobilized, and all exits were sealed. It was no small matter for Night Raid members to sneak into the Imperial Capital.
Walking into a small alley, Su Xiao squatted down, and there was a pool of blood on the ground.
His finger touched the blood, and the blood was still somewhat warm, which meant Akame had just left, and he was already very close to Akame.
Some white cloth strips were scattered nearby, stained with large patches of blood. This should be Akame tearing her underwear to bandage her wounds.
Su Xiao chuckled. After Zhan Long Shan stabbed into Akame's chest, he slashed out a wound diagonally.
This kind of wound, although not long, was extremely difficult to bandage, not to mention Akame was a woman, so the wound on her chest was even harder to bandage.
Following the bloodstains, Su Xiao tracked in the Imperial Capital. Akame was like an injured deer running around in the Imperial Capital.
"Massive blood loss, let's see how long you can hold on."
Following the dotted bloodstains to track, twenty minutes later, Su Xiao found that the surrounding buildings began to become dilapidated, and occasionally some drunkards could be seen on the side of the street.
This was the slums, the most chaotic and poorest place in the Imperial Capital.
If a woman with some beauty dared to walk alone on the streets of the slums, she might be kidnapped and appear in the flower street not far away the next day.
The degree of chaos here far exceeded imagination. Women being kidnapped was not the most terrifying thing. Those drunkards on the side of the street were the most pitiful people. They might sleep on the dirty street today, but tomorrow morning they might lie on some cold experimental table, waiting for them were crazy human experiments.
Su Xiao first passed through a dark alley, and not long after, he arrived at a lively street.
It was getting dark at this time.
This street was dominated by pink and red lights.
Both sides of the street were dominated by two-story or three-story pointed small buildings. Glazed tiles covered the roof, and round or square lanterns hung in front of the small buildings.
The soft sound of musical instruments intertwined with the laughter on the street, and many men and women leaned against each other intimately.
On the pavilions on the side of the street, you could vaguely see some women dressed in revealing clothes, holding long, thin pipes. These women scanned the pedestrians below, as if looking for bed partners or fat sheep tonight.
Su Xiao came to the flower street of the Imperial Capital, which was the liveliest place in the slums.
Su Xiao not only came to the flower street, but also walked into the flower street with a sword. The bloodstains on his lapels represented that he had just committed murder.
This scared the guests of the flower street, and the pairs of men and women leaning against each other ran away.
Su Xiao entering the flower street with a sword affected the interests of some people, and immediately someone couldn't sit still.
