我女朋友的妹妹

Chapter 272 100TH EPISODE [BLIND JUSTICE] (VI)

NOA didn’t say anything at that moment. He just stayed silent no matter what kind of insult Gerald threw at him. He was waiting. Waiting for a chance. And it came faster than expected when the other turned his back on him to answer a call from his Terminal. 

He stood up with the chair still tied to him. It was hard but he didn’t feel it at all. There was only one goal in his mind and that’s all that mattered to him. He threw himself to Gerald with all the force he could muster. The chair was facing the other when he did. So, when he hit Gerald, the chair was the first one that came into contact with the other. 

Because of the force and add to Gerald’s size, the chair broke easily. The impact hurt every muscle in Noa’s body. But he didn’t care. He quickly picked up a piece of the broken wood and stabbed it towards Gerald.

The other who had fallen managed to move quickly. But the wood still slashed at his arm. The mockery on his face was now replaced with pure anger. He raised his hand and didn’t even hesitate to slap Noa. 

The boy was immediately thrown to the side. His lips broke and the side of his cheek that was slapped was quickly becoming swollen. But he seemed to not feel that at all. Because he stood up and rushed forward again, still with the broken piece of wood in his hand.

**********

The following scene was very painful to watch for the audience. They saw the teenager continued to attack Gerald despite him constantly being punched or kicked. He didn’t say anything. He just attacked with all the power his thin body could muster. 

All of them could see in his eyes why he was doing something so futile. Because he didn’t want to be a burden to the young master who saved him and gave him a home. He was simply exuding with the determination that he’d rather die than be a weakness to the young master he adored. 

Every time he fell and stood up, they wanted to tell him that it’s okay. That Remi would never think of him as a burden. That he should just stay put and wait to be rescued. Their heart simply ached for him. They were feeling so anxious that they hoped Remi would arrive faster and save Noa.

Their wish was fulfilled because the next scene shifted to Remi.

**********

Remi just landed the aircraft almost a kilometer away from the location where Noa was. This way he wouldn’t alarm those bastards who kidnapped Noa. He then transformed the aircraft into a land vehicle and he continued to drive it towards the location.

Just thinking of what he had discovered about how Noa ended up being kidnapped like that could easily make him enter a state of outrage. The cook that Remi thought he could trust was actually easily bought just like that. But at least the other was not so shameless as to continue staying at the mansion after what she had done.

He would make sure that he would pay for that later. Right now, he needed to save Noa first. 

Soon, he saw the abandoned warehouse where Noa was being held captive. He parked the land vehicle on a spot that was not easy to see if one was standing near the warehouse. 

Stepping out of the vehicle, he took out his particle gun and rushed forward. He made sure that the path he took wasn’t noticeable. He already downloaded the blueprint of this warehouse the moment he found out that Noa was here. 

Before even reaching the place, he had already disabled all the locks. So, when he arrived at one of the entrances of the warehouse, he was able to easily opened the door. He peeked inside through the gap but saw nothing because of the dimly lit light. But he heard voices. No, it was more like grunts.

His fear was suddenly heightened a hundred times. But he still had to remain composed or at least as composed as his brain would allow him. He carefully walked inside, making sure that his steps were as light as a feather. But even if he was walking carefully, that didn’t mean that his steps were unhurried. In fact, if he could fly, he had already done so.

Remi walked towards the direction of the voice. When his eyes finally got used to the darkness, what he saw completely froze him in place.

In front of him, a teenager was sitting on top of a man lying on the floor. He was holding some sort of wood and he was stabbing at the man under him like the latter was some sort of meat bag. 

He couldn’t properly see the face of the man lying on the ground but he could see the blood splashing around. Remi rushed forward as if his body was moving on its own. He hugged the teenager from the back, holding the other’s hand that was about to stab on the man under him. 

”It’s alright, Noa… it’s alright, it’s okay now,” he said continuously in the best soothing voice he could muster. 

Remi felt Noa’s body shudder. He easily took the wood the other was holding. Noa turned towards him and he almost gasped because the other’s face was full of blood. Showing that he must have been hit on the head quite fiercely. It’s not just that, even his clothes were torn. His body was filled with bruises and cuts everywhere. 

Remi gritted his teeth. He was on the verge of picking up that piece of wood and stabbing the bastard himself.

But he stopped. Because Noa needed him. Not his anger. He carefully helped the the other up, as if he was protecting a treasure. “We’ll go home now, okay?”

Noa stared at him and his eyes were blurred with tears. He couldn’t speak because it was too painful, his jaw was probably broken. So, he could only nod his head.

Remi was about to carry Noa when he saw a flash of light coming from the side. He immediately recognized it as the light coming from a particle gun. There was no time to dodge. There’s only one thing he could do at this moment. 

He pushed Noa out of the way. Even if he shielded the other, it’s unsure whether it would still hit Noa or not. Because lasers from particle guns had tendencies to pass through a human body. He then felt something hitting his chest. Thankfully, it’s the right side or else, he would be lying dead now. 

Remi quickly pivoted and raised his gun to the direction where that shot came from. Then, he pulled the trigger and shot three consecutive times to make sure he wouldn’t miss. He was a pretty good shot, so he’s confident that one of those shots would hit the intended target.

He fell down, blood continuing to pour out of the wound on his chest. In his blurring vision, he saw Noa scurrying towards him. The other’s face was full of tears. 

”Don’t… cry.”

That’s the last thing he said before he lost consciousness. And that’s also the last time he saw Noa.
