Butcher Demon

Chapter 144

Chapter 144

??? (Gevaudan's point of view)

"Are you going to eat him too?"

Natsuki looked down in horror at the man, Shigeaki, lying on the floor.

?It's for preserves?

She looks at the note I held up and then simply nods.

I was joking about preserving the food, but it is better to keep the face fresh for later use.

I also took into account the fact that eating it makes the girls nervous. From now on, I have to make sure that the girls don't see any more brutal scenes than necessary. It would affect their trust. I'm not just a cannibalistic demon. I have to make them understand that I'm a disciplined butcher.

--After all, I had made a lover contract with Natsuki and decided to move our hiding place to a higher floor.

We do not have much time so I asked Natsuki to do her dirty trick and decided to take over the room of this idiot who keeps bragging.

Apparently, The target was decided by Yakumo. Natsuki has been silently watching her brother's gaze to the street, and when she saw Yakumo's eyes land on a man who happened to be walking by, she called out to him and that man was Shigeaki. According to her, in this kind of situation, it's better to trust Yakumo's choice. That's quite a blinding sisterly love.

Pig Haven is the first choice in the Fort where one can avoid surveillance, but the upper floors are also less monitored.

Slums are not suitable as hiding places. Because slum dwellers are desperate to survive so they have strong ties with their neighbors and that's means there are a lot of eyes. The main topic of conversation among them is what happened to someone or other from somewhere else. The population density is also high. There is never an empty room, and if someone disappears they will notice it the next day, and if a stranger shows up out of the blue, word will spread quickly.

I had promised Natsuki and the boy that I would provide them with food, clothing, and shelter, and I was practically forbidden from living on the streets or underground. I couldn't just take the two of them from one hotel to another. It would be too dangerous with so many eyes watching us. this was the only place.

There are not many surveillance cameras in high-class residential areas because of the respect for privacy. It's a well-known fact. There are no cameras at the entrances to the upper floors, and the majority of the security system is old-fashioned, with security staff and some janitors.

If the residents themselves granted the access, the guards will not act as they sometimes called some prostitutes and other embarrassing services.

Nevertheless, the guards at the entrance gave us a rather suspicious look, considering the fact that I, with my Pedro's face, wore a Santa Claus costume, and Yakumo wore a reindeer costume, making the two of us look like Christmas event personnel.

But thanks to the quick thinking of Natsuki, who responded cheerfully over the intercom, we were able to avoid any further suspicion. Good job Natsuki.

--Like this, I was able to avoid the surveillance of the Fort officially. with the status of the upper floor dweller.

The residents of the upper residential area are indifferent to each other. There is an unspoken manner of not interfering more than necessary. I wondered if this is what it meant to be rich. On the surface at least.

Even if I do take over Shigeaki's room, it shouldn't be a problem for a week or so. Still, sooner or later, this man's disappearance would be discovered. I'm thinking two weeks at the most.

I quickly tied Shigeaki, who was still limply lying on the ground.

I take the two of them with me and do a quick tour of the place.

The living room had windows on two sides. The view was outstanding. There were only buildings, though.

By the way, the glass is a one-way mirror. In the daytime, the exterior of the room is reflective, but since it's nighttime now, it's completely visible from outside. I found a switch and activate the LCD screen , making them opaque to block the view from outside.

The living room led directly to a room that looked like a work space. It was a desk with a computer and other things in it. There was an ID card on the desk. Shigeaki was an employee of the Procurement Bureau. I recall that this was the Bureau that bought food and supplies from outside.

The Fort is not self-sufficient in food. Not only food, but also daily necessities are purchased from outside. Fort 88 is said to be one of the richest forts in the region and therefore it is able to procure luxury items such as fresh seafood and high quality goods. The Procurement Bureau is the people who make such purchases. They also handle weapons and ammunition.

We went down the hallway to the bedroom.

The bedroom was large and had direct access to the bathroom with separate toilet. It had a walk-through closet.

Furthermore, there was another door to the room at the end of the hallway.

When I opened it, I found out he was quite a perverted.

It was a room that was fully equipped with SM stuff.

?rooms(3LDK), he's quite a rich man. He probably took bribes from people who wanted him to procure things, illegal of course.

I wrapped Shigeaki in Diamond thread and threw him into the SM room.

This is a good place. It's a perfect hiding place.

This is the end of the year. the time when the whole Fort is in high spirits.

In Fort 88, they celebrate New Year in a grand way as a sign of surviving the year. In peaceful times, there are even fireworks. Maybe there'll be a chance to make contact with Abigail.

--Well.

By the way, this SM room.

*sniff* *sniff*

My Butcher's meat sense is tingling.

"What's the matter, Gevaudan?"

At my sniffling, Natsuki's face turned curious. Yakumo was still expressionless .

I stopped them both with my hand and pointed to a large wooden cross at the back of the room.....how nostalgic.

I shifted the cross to the side.

What emerged was a hidden entrance and a small room behind it.

--Oh, well, Shigeaki is a real pervert.

--The room was filled with jars and boxes, refrigerators. And on the walls are tons of photos.

In the jars are organs soaked in liquid. The boxes are filled with piles of hair and nails. In the refrigerator, there were small portions of meat.

The photos on the wall are all woman.

A smiling woman, probably on a date.

A naked woman, probably after sex.

And a bloody photo. The so-called snuff film.

--That was a close one, Natsuki.

This was indeed unexpected, and she was standing behind me with her face pale. I pat her on the head.

You've got some serious talent, Natsuki. You managed to lure a butcher and a murderer in one night. An unusually high amount of luck has fallen upon this sacred night. If you go to the casino now, you will surely win the 777 jackpot.

Since we were busy, I crucified Shigeaki and bound him with diamond thread. Leaving him there, I took the two back to the living room.

I nudged Natsuki, who seemed to be in a bad mood, to sit down on the sofa.

She sat down and picked up the glass in front of her.

I stopped her from taking a sip by holding her hand. The way things were going, it could be anything in the glass.

I threw it away and filled another glass with water.

Natsuki drank it in one gulp, took a deep breath, and then asked, "Gevaudan won't use that room, right?".

No, I won't. My butcher lance is an unparalleled S equipment. Man-made goods are just a burden.

When I shook my head, she looked relieved and patted her chest.

--Koooooooooo .......

I heard a cute sound coming from her stomach as Natsuki try to pressed it down.

"Well, the last time I ate was before noon, so ......."

Natsuki makes excuses and turns her face down. her ears turns red.

?I'll make you a meal.?

"Eh? you can?"

I affirmed, by making a gesture of flexing my arms.

I'll make it. The kitchen is gorgeous. My creative mind is buzzing with excitement.

"..."

Immediately, a sharp gaze shot from her eyes pierced me. the suspicion is rising from Natsuki's shoulders like a black aura.

No doubt she thinks I'm going to serve human flesh.

Don't worry. I actually prefer regular meat to human meat when it comes to the taste. Of course, beef, pork, and chicken meat taste better than human meat. But if it's a live one, I'll choose human.

?I'll make it with what's in the fridge. I was trained at a butcher shop, so I can cook for you.?

"butcher ...... shop ......?"

?It's a little late, but let's have Christmas dinner. I still want to play lovers on Christmas night?

".....now? ....in this situation?"

yep yep.

Natsuki tilted her head with a dumbfounded expression and stared up at me.

I just can't wait. What's with that dress? The miniskirt looks super good on you.

Is there anything you want to eat, Yakumo?

I opened the refrigerator, lifted Yakumo with my arms, and showed him what's inside.

swoosh! He pointed to a lump of meat.

The children love meat. All right, all right, I got it.

As soon as I fill Yakumo's stomach and put him to bed, it was time for me to partake in this sacred night.
