Chapter 360 - The Incident (III)
I might hesitate in killing someone who is not originally a criminal but these guys are real criminals, they are the worst of all the worst and they deserved to die. If this incident is not prevented, there will be 20 student deaths and 129 injured. Not only that but they also have been able to become really dangerous after they escaped prison. After their escape, they became one of the most wanted people in the world and are deemed to be the "shoot on sight" criminals and due to their escape in their confinements, it resulted in more deaths in the process.
Now that I returned in the past, this matter is not something I can just pass by and do nothing. If being a vigilante can help reduce the injured and stop deaths, then so be it.
After killing the bastards in the room, I look at the students in the classroom and check if anyone is injured. Seeing no one is seriously injured in the process, I look at the girl who was being choked earlier.
"Are you alright?" I helped her get back up.
"Thank you..." she is still coughing up after being choked so hard by them.
"Help her get good fresh air, don't let her confined around in tight spaces as that will make her breathe harder. Also, lock the doors so that no one else comes in. Unless it is a teacher or rescuers, don't open them alright?"
Those who managed to catch up on what I meant nodded while those who are still scared sh*tless on what happened just stare at me.
I didn't dawdle in that room for long. I also left behind the weapons of the dead hostage-takers in case the students have to deal with someone else who is not part of the faculty and tries to break in. It all depends on how they use it. That being said, I still needed to do what I needed to do. After all, the faculty are still in the dark after this. I don't know what is happening but perhaps there is someone that is an accomplice in the faculty since the timing of the meeting is just too perfect.
After that, I rush towards the next room and did the same thing to the hostage-takers. I didn't do any flashy moves or introductions and just barges in before doing the kill. There are a few rooms where there are already injured students but thankfully, no one is killed yet. The plan is doing well.
Now that I have disposed of half of the people who tried to do some violence, I wonder how will the mastermind do and respond to my attacks.
....
....
In the dean's office, the boss who held the dean of the school hostage is frowning when some of the people he asked to deploy on the lower floors of the school cannot be contacted anymore.
"What the heck are these bastards doing? Didn't I ask them to remain their radios on for me to contact them? What the f*ck are their problems?!" the young mastermind of the hostage-taking is currently gritting his teeth in anger after trying to attempt some contact with his people.
"Should I check up on what is happening on them?" one of the bodyguard people of the mastermind asked.
"No, you should stay. Those bastards are good for nothing but they will not show any compassion and mercy on anyone. There must be something that must have happened before so perhaps that was the case."
"Perhaps the police already caught up on our acts?" the other bodyguard who is a woman wearing glasses tried guessing.
"Didn't the first course of action boss has instructed them is to confiscate and destroy the phones before they do anything else?" the bodyguard guy contradicts her.
"Perhaps someone else has hidden their device and tried to do a secret call."
"Nah, that is bullcrap. If they did, they should be dead already. Don't even think they can call the cops in the end."
"Hmm, you got a point there."
"Still, it is indeed strange. I only heard a few gunshots earlier but I doubt that should be it. Don't tell me most of the students in this f*cking school are all good students and are all quiet and compliant enough? That is just pure bullcrap right?"
"Perhaps. Let's just wait for more news on them, I doubt they will stay silent for too long."
What they didn't know, was most of their troops deployed to take hold of the school are already dead. It is only a matter of minutes or an hour before the vigilante arrives.
....
....
....
I underestimated the number of intruders in the place and most of the rooms I entered almost have someone died if I didn't intervene at all. These f*ckers are all pain in the crap.
I continued killing them and make my way into the dean's room. From what I can remember, the main boss decided to camp out in the Dean's room. The boss of this group is a complete psychopath and will not hesitate to kill. Of course, I doubt he has killed the Dean just yet but he has indeed killed her in the past timeline. But it would take a bit more time before she was executed by the f*cker.
I hurried up and cleared up the remaining rooms. Thankfully, all of my silent assaults allowed me to keep the injured minimal and the deaths of the students who should have died in this event have been saved and they are not killed.
Then, my homophone rings. It was Janus who is calling me.
"Hello? Janus, what is going on?"
"Manato, should I call the police right now?"
"No need. Someone else should have called them already so just stay in the rooms properly, Don't open the room unless someone else tried to rescue you guys like the police. Also, don't open it if it was someone from the faculty. I am guessing someone from the faculty is an accomplice for how they managed to get in so easily without any problem and how the meeting coincides with their time of entrance."
"An accomplice in the faculty?"
"Yeah. But that was just an assumption. The only people you can trust right now are yourselves and once they arrive, the police too. Other than that, keep yourselves holed up there. Don't even bother going out or it might endanger your lives."
"Roger that."
After that, I ended the call and proceed to go to the Dean's room after the death of all the people who tried to take over the school. Time to do the final showdown.
...
"What the f*ck... all of them cannot be contacted now. What the hell is going on? I can still contact all of them earlier, why are they not responsive now?"
"Should I go check out what is happening now?" the bodyguard woman asked.
"Yeah, bring him along with you. I don't like what is happening right now. If something is messing up with my plans, I wanted that gone as soon as possible."
The two bodyguards nodded and opened the door when the door they were about to open was sent flying and the male bodyguard who was holding the doorknob earlier and was about to open the door was sent flying alongside the door.
"What?!" the female bodyguard tried to aim her rifle on the unknown assailant but she realized her gun has been cut in half and cannot be used anymore. Seeing it broken, she pulled out her pistol and used it instead, and started shooting on the unknown assailant.
However, the unknown assailant was fast and before she can respond, a lightning shock electrocutes her body alongside the pain on her abdomen like she was punched too hard in her gut. She almost died and spit out lots of blood in the process.
The boss who was sitting at the desk was shocked but he found it interesting someone is fighting them. However, his anger is much more on the overflowing side and he didn't have enough time to do that as the bodyguards who were just standing guard earlier were now unconscious.
He thought the assailants were about to stop and face him now that the two are already unconscious but to his surprise, the guy pulls out something and it transformed into a sword. The assailant didn't even hesitate and stab the two bodyguards on their chest multiple times, effectively killing them.
Quickly grabbing the gun on his side, he aimed it at the unknown assailant but he released it when an arrow almost pierced his left hand.
"W-wait!" he was about to plead and surrender but the unknown assailant didn't even talk to him or even stop to spare him. He was kicked in the abdomen hard and he was sent flying from the table to the nearby cabinet, causing his back to break from the impact. However, he is still alive.. Now, he is facing the grim reaper waiting to harvest his life.
