Chapter 48 - Waiting for Black Rabbit and White Rabbit, Waiting for Trouble

Oedo Credit Bank.

The famous streamer Krystel Keno was holding a microphone, facing the camera as she reported the situation.

"This is right in front of the Oedo Credit Bank, where the bank robbers are currently holed up..."

The camera turned to the Oedo Credit Bank, and through the briefly opened automatic door, everyone could clearly see what was happening inside.

Krystel the streamer gasped, saying at an incredibly fast pace, "The culprit has shown his face! His dark circles are so bad, he probably hasn't slept well!"

"Looks like something's happening. Should we go around?" Shinpachi asked, seeking opinions.

Onlookers + TV station personnel ≈ Trouble.

"No need. We'll rest here for a bit and wait for Gintoki." Muyang raised his left hand and lightly tapped the surface of his Bracelets. The projection device activated, and a virtual screen floated in the air.

"(*⊙o⊙) Wow! Amazing!" Shinpachi and Kagura, who didn't even have cell phones, stared at the high-tech Bracelets with amazement and envy.

Muyang, while sending a message to Gintoki Sakata, asked Shinpachi and Kagura with a smile, "Do you want one? If you want, I can give you one each."

"Eh! Really?!" Shinpachi and Kagura immediately looked at Muyang in surprise.

Something that looked so high-tech must be very valuable! And very expensive!

Could he really just give them away?

"Actually, it's not that expensive. Didn't I give one to Kotaro Katsura before?" Muyang took out two Bracelets from his pocket and tossed them to Shinpachi and Kagura.

The two caught the Bracelets and put them on their left wrists. The moment they put them on, a stream of information appeared in their minds, and Shinpachi and Kagura's expressions were immediately stunned.

"Ahahaha... Maybe I'm too happy to receive a gift, I seem to be hallucinating! How embarrassing..." Shinpachi was stunned for a moment by the information in his mind, and after recovering, he scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.

"Oh~~" Hearing Shinpachi's words, Kagura's fist met her palm, a look of realization on her face, as if a phantom lightbulb had appeared above her head. "So it was a hallucination!"

"Eh~" As if finding a kindred spirit, Shinpachi suddenly looked at Kagura, his glasses gleaming white due to the angle. "Kagura-chan, you're having hallucinations too!"

"Yeah! After putting on the Bracelets, a voice just popped into my head, talking about some Dimensional Shop! Saying any wish could come true, I almost believed it, aru..."

For every word Kagura spoke, the more sweat appeared on Shinpachi's face, as if he had been fished out of water.

"Eh~, how coincidental! Our hallucinations are the same!" Shinpachi-kun's expression was very stiff; he seemed to have thought of something.

"Eh?" Kagura was stunned.

"It's not a hallucination," Muyang said.

"Eh!!! This… that… Eh——!!!"

A few seconds later, at the edge of the street, Kagura and Shinpachi were crouched in a corner, staring blankly ahead, presumably trying to process what they'd just witnessed.

Muyang, on the other hand, was stroking Sadaharu's soft white fur, considering whether to give the dog a bracelet.

Sadaharu, the Komainu, a cosmic being, possessed extremely high intelligence and could understand human language.

Lost in thought, the TV station staff had already left. The Doshin, or constables, arrived belatedly, setting up a cordon to prevent the crowd from getting too close to the Oedo Credit Bank.

At the same time, one of them picked up a megaphone and shouted towards the bank's automated doors, which were tightly shut.

"Hey, hey, hey! Criminals, listen up...

You're completely surrounded! Come out quietly!"

Muyang naturally heard the voice echoing through the street and looked up at its source.

"So slow! When I watched the anime, it felt fast. One scene change and the bald guy appeared. Why is it so slow in reality…"

Muyang's eyes gleamed, ignoring the crowd and the walls, focusing on the bank robbers. One of them was a black-clad, bald man, like a monster spewing his guts.

A Parasitic Alien Monster, acting on instinct, would parasitize humans, cats, dogs, and any living thing. It appeared in the Seihoubou arc.

In the original story, Kagura used her "This one here" scam to get into the bank and encountered this monster. She got stuck and couldn't escape until her dad showed up to save her.

There were two possibilities for Seihoubou's reason for being at the bank.

One was that he knew Kagura was there and came looking for her. The other was that he knew the monster was in the bank and came to eliminate it.

Pinpointing someone's location in the vastness of Edo wasn't easy. Seihoubou had just arrived in Edo and didn't have much information. Even if he got information from the police, he should have gone to the Yorozuya instead of the Oedo Credit Bank.

If one possibility was eliminated, the remaining one was Seihoubou came to the bank to eliminate the monster, and happened to find Kagura.

So, Muyang was waiting here, like a farmer waiting for a rabbit, or rather, two rabbits: Black Rabbit and White Rabbit.

Speak of the devil...

There he was, Black Rabbit, a strange figure completely shielded from the sun. He wore a full-coverage hat, goggles, bandages wrapped around his face, a scarf around his neck, a cloak, gloves, and even carried an umbrella. Not a single inch of skin was exposed.

"Hey, you! The criminal! What do you think you're doing?" A Doshin with a megaphone stared in astonishment at the figure heading towards the bank doors. "That's dangerous!"

As the figure approached, the automatic doors slid open, revealing the scene inside.

The man, who was spewing out the Parasitic Alien Monster, tilted his head slightly, his bloodshot eyes glaring at the crowd outside. The monster opened its fanged maw and roared at the onlookers.

"Ah! A monster!!!"

In the blink of an eye, both the onlookers and the Doshin had scattered, disappearing from sight.

"Oh, here it is."

Kamui didn't pay any attention to the noisy ordinary people behind him. As he closed his umbrella, he walked inside, and flung the closed umbrella forward.

"Heyah!"

The dark green umbrella instantly shot out like a cannonball, wrapped in golden light, and whistling through the air. It resembled a spear thrown by a god to destroy a monster.

With a single blow, the monster's body was shattered. In the monster's screams and the violent air currents, its body gradually lost its vitality, eventually spreading on the ground like a pile of mud.

Having eliminated the monster with a single blow, Kamui acted as though it was a trivial matter. There was no change in his expression. He stepped on the monster's corpse, walked to the umbrella, grasped the handle, opened it, and headed towards the door.

He should go find Kagura.

The automatic door slowly opened, revealing the scene across the street, bit by bit, to his view.

When the automatic doors opened to their fullest extent, a girl with lifeless eyes, squatting in the corner, rudely barged into his unprepared view.

After a 0.001-second recognition, Kamui immediately widened his eyes.

"Kagura!!!"
