[Comprehensive] How to kill a rabid dog gently

"Why does the mafia still do this..."

Bell, in his school uniform (overalls and a shirt with a striped tie), looks well-behaved, if you ignore the sharps he keeps in his pockets and the rude words he's about to blurt.

"Watch your words, Bell."

Cheng knelt down and straightened his tie for him.

"Because it is not the era of 200 years ago, Vengley has to work harder to maintain his leading position... So, even if you are already a skilled assassin, you must receive basic education and get the proper training. Proof of education is enough."

she added.

"This rule is also valid for Xanxus and Squalo."

Cheng thought that it was probably the last sentence that convinced Belphegor. After saying goodbye, he reluctantly walked towards the school under the management of Vengley, which was specially opened for the children of the family and allied families—the primary school. .

"Don't use me as an example."

Cheng didn't notice when Squalo came to her, he glanced at her as he passed by.

"Besides, it's really a stupid rule."

Cheng smiled and quickened his pace to follow him.

"Isn't Xanxus coming today?"

"Who knows, maybe I went to watch underground mma again... that bastard boss."

Squalo's face suddenly turned fierce, and when he said this, the two had already walked to the high school department.

In this Italian five-year high school for those related to the Mafia, there are some hidden considerations in the group division of students. class.

And when Cheng, who was on duty today, picked up the class roster, this became even more intuitive.

Most of the students sitting in this classroom have the suffixes of families that are quite close to Pengo Lie.

Holding a pen, Cheng rolled the names and ticked off each name.

"Angelo."

When no one responded, Cheng raised his voice slightly and repeated it again.

"Angelo Facchetti?"

"I'm afraid he won't be able to come in the future."

A girl below said casually.

"The Facchetti family has had some succession matters recently...Angelo is the second in line, and the guy in the third line is the one who took the top spot—you know, in the season of power change, someone will be unlucky."

Apparently accessible humor to mafia kids, the classroom was quickly erupting with laughter.

Cheng lost her expression, she paused for a while, and then announced the next name.

"Dino... Dino. Gabrielone?"

No one answered that name either.

However, Cheng had a clue as to where he had gone.

She circled his name and closed the roster.

As expected, Cheng found Dino on the roof during class break.

"Cheng?" Dino was startled at first, and then smiled brightly at her, "I saw you instead of reborn, this is really the happiest thing today."

Dino.Gabrielone has a very good looks, especially when he smiles.And if he compliments a member of the opposite sex with this glorious appearance, the charm will probably be hard to resist.

But Cheng was amused by him instead.

"Is Mr. Reborn really so strict?"

"Severe is no longer enough to describe that person. He is simply a demon crawling out of Spartan hell!"

"Maybe it's because Mr. Reborn, as a tutor, has high expectations of you, Dino."

"I don't think I can become the kind of person Reborn expects... I am not suitable to be the leader of Gabrielone."

His expression suddenly became melancholy.

"... Cheng."

He propped up his body and approached her, his blond hair hanging down as if kissed by the sun god.

"Let's run away."

He said.

"Go to a place where there is no mafia, and where you don't have to hurt others and be hurt by others."

"Dino." Cheng turned his face to meet his gaze, "I..."

"That's too rude, Dino."

Reborn who suddenly appeared ruthlessly kicked the disciple to the ground.

"Leaving aside whether you are a waste or not, Miss Cheng has always done a very good job as a consultant in Valia. Before making such unreasonable demands to her, please at least recognize the gap between the two of you."

Reborn lifted the brim of his hat, his expressionless face revealed a dangerous meaning.

"Also, I can't pretend that I didn't hear about the topic of escaping..."

"Mr. Reborn." Cheng tried to divert the other party's attention, "It is impossible for someone like Dino who values ​​his family to run away—right, Dino?"

"Huh?...Well, that's true." Dino was discouraged, "Father and Romario are here after all."

"Then go back to class."

reborn said grimly.

"But, but there is a practical class today, I'm not very good at dealing with this kind of..."

The sound of loading sounded.

"Death or actual combat class, choose one."

"Leave it to me, Mr. Reborn, I'll take care of him."

Cheng smiled and pulled Dino back.

"Let's go, Dino."

"How many are you already?"

Dino asked Cheng who was beside him in a low voice.

"If this one also fails the challenge..." she replied, "then there will be twelve people defeated by Squalo in this round."

"It's horrible...I definitely don't want to confront him."

Dino was slightly stunned. At this time, Squalo had defeated No.12 enemies. He stood where he was, did not put away his sword, and his sharp eyes slowly swept across the crowd.

Squalo's eyes finally fell on where they were, and Dino tensed up unconsciously as if the real sense of oppression, but the other party's actions finally exceeded his expectations.

"Cheng, come here."

He said.

"You do the next one."

Even Cheng himself seemed surprised for a moment.

"What...Cheng!"

Dino turned around quickly, but after a brief surprise, she walked out calmly. Dino tried to hold her hand, but in vain.

"Squalo, I'm not a combatant."

She walked up to him and reminded him gently.

"So what."

Squalo threw a gun at her.

"I use the sword, you use this."

He said.

"I won't show mercy, so you must also shoot me with the will to kill me." Squalo stared at her, "If you understand, raise your weapon and aim at me."

Cheng's eyes lowered and fell on the barrel of the gun, he didn't hold it tightly for a long time.

"...It seems that I have to use other methods to make you understand."

Squalo's face was serious, he drew his sword very fast, but the other person moved faster than him.

Dino's whip blocked Squalo's sword at the critical moment.

"Horse jumping..."

Squalo's expression darkened.

"I'll be your match, Squalo," Dino said with a smile. "It's not gentlemanly to involve a weak lady."

"As Gabrione's heir, you can still say such innocent words, Vault."

He squinted his eyes and locked on to the improvised opponent.

"I'll make you regret it."

The relationship between Squalo, Dino and Cheng can be traced back several years.

Gabrielone and Vongola have a long history of alliance. In contact, it is not surprising that Dino, whose style is far from that of a mafia heir, would become friends with Cheng—as for Dino and Si Although the two of them already knew about each other's existence and heard about each other's personality, they were fundamentally doomed to be unable to coexist harmoniously.

Their battle was evenly matched for a while.

"Surprised?"

Cheng, who was paying attention to the battle situation, suddenly felt a slight heaviness in her left shoulder. She turned her face, and reborn, the strongest killer who looked like a baby, was sitting on her shoulder.

"If you want to talk about the ability to inherit the family, Dino already has that quality." He said, "What that guy still lacks is consciousness and will."

"I actually don't think he lacks anything, Mr. Reborn." Cheng said to him, "Dino is a gentle person by nature. Compared with the power itself, he always prioritizes what to use his power for... Although sometimes this It makes him look a little clumsy."

"Probably." Reborn curled his lips, "Sooner or later, he will grow up for someone."

She nodded slightly, and refocused her eyes on the two of them.

On the other hand, there is still a considerable difference in the combat experience of Squalo and Dino after all, and the latter gradually begins to be stretched to the left and right, and is at a disadvantage.

At the moment when the whip was cut off by the sword, the two decided the winner.

The episode that happened in the actual combat class seems to be quickly forgotten by people, only the gun that Squalo gave her at that time reminded Cheng of this incident.

Returning it to its rightful owner was a matter of twilight.

Squalo was silent for a while, then took the gun.

He pushed down the stock of the gun, ejected the bullet, and handed it back to Cheng again.

"Hold it."

With his right hand he guided her to raise the muzzle of the gun, and Squalo bit the edge of his left glove and took it off.

Under his glove is a prosthetic, and the blade takes the place of his left hand.

Squalo's blade was on Cheng's stomach, and at the same time, he held her gun to his heart.

"My sword is very fast." He said, "Even if you hold a hot weapon, I'm [-]% sure that I will attack before you... So, Cheng, do you know what to do?"

Shadows fell over half of his shoulders, and the setting sun was slowly sinking, and the afterglow streamed slowly through Squalo's hair.

His hand covered it, exerting a little force.

The trigger was clicked, making a slight sound.

Neither of them spoke.

After a long time, Squalo put the bullet into the girl's hand, and then let go.

Long after Squalo left, Cheng was still there, she seemed to be still looking at the sky, but the sun had clearly sunk completely, and a few stars climbed up the edge of the dark blue.

The metal bullet Cheng held in her hand had become warm, and when she began to realize that time was slipping away, Dino suddenly appeared in front of her as if falling from the sky.

"I fell asleep in the infirmary during the dressing... I didn't expect it to be so late."

He wrapped a hastily repaired whip around the window frame railing, stroked his sleepy hair, and stretched out his hand to her.

"Can you give me a hand, Cheng?"

Cheng couldn't help smiling.

"of course."

She held Dino's hand, and Dino jumped into the room with a little leverage... But he couldn't grasp his balance for a while, and almost hit him, Cheng stepped back half a step, and Dino supported the wall in time , the distance between the two was drawn very close, Dino's eyes flickered slightly, and the corners of his mouth shyly and apologetically bent.

"...I know you didn't help me just to hear me say this."

Cheng hesitated for a moment, then said.

"However, Dino, thank you for today's matter."

"No, don't thank me."

Dino said.

"Squalo is right, I am indeed a naive person...Cheng, I hope my rash intervention did not offend you, I just—"

After a while, he continued.

"Reborn said that you are far more determined and decisive than what we have seen, so don't presume that you are the party that needs protection."

"But when you don't want to pull the trigger, it's nice to have someone give you a reason not to."

"Cheng."

He called her name.

"Maybe this is what I really wanted to do for you at that time."
