FIND THE WHITE LOTUS WITH THE HORMONE YAKI FOR YOUR NEXT CLUE
āI canāt believe they thought you knew how to read coordinates,ā Sevyn laughs out. Leave it to this pair to have some laughs like this is a friendly game of hide and seek.
āDonāt act like I couldnāt have just held down on my phone screen and click ālook upā just like you did.ā
Sevyn gasps dramatically, feigning offense, āDonāt you dare downplay my critical thinking skills!ā Shujiās right that it was that easy. Unlike him though, Sevyn had the common sense to investigate a bit before running right into this anonymous Sadistās hands.
Three days it took them to actually come to the location spelt out to them from the beginning. Shuji was all the impatient, ready to go within hours of realizing something was off. Only his absolute trust in Sevyn kept him from hauling ass at first chance.
āWeāll be lucky if anyone is alive by the time we get there.ā Shuji was only half joking. āMy non-existent granny could have found them faster than you.ā
āIs that attitude the reason she left you to your whore of a motherās care?ā Sev asks ruthlessly. āI wouldnāt blame her.ā
Shujiās left hand steers the wheel while his right snatched up the loaded gun in his lap. A click can be heard as a bullet is dropped into the chamber, begging for a pull of the trigger to release it right into his friendās temple.
The two are interrupted by the voice of the GPS through the carās sound system. It signals their arrival and the car is immediately parked up to the curb, with doors open before they even come to a full stop.
The clue wasnāt too hard to find. The problem is what was found with it. A lotus shaped plate with the local specialty dish, typically consisting of animal organs though given the circumstance, both men were skeptical. Next to it was a glass of deep red liquid, thicker in consistency than any soda. It resembles a fluid Shuji knows all too well. The worst part ā thereās a note with it saying to eat and drink up for the next clue. Realizing theyāre being watched, the two look around. All of the nearby windows are shut with blinds and curtains, not leaving a single hint of human presence.
āIām not fucking eating that,ā Sev backs up. āTheyāre your friends.ā
āYou once had the biggest crush on Willow and now you wouldnāt take an innocent little nibble to save her son?ā Shuji asks with one brow raised.
āSheās your best friend,ā Sev passes the cup of blood to Shuji with a smile on his face. āProve it.ā
The two stare at each other looking for the slightest unraveling of the otherās nerve, but it quickly becomes apparent Sevyn has no intention to eat the remains in front of him.
āTomorrow Iām a newly born vegan.ā
With that, Shuji lifts the plate to his mouth and scarfs it down as fast as he can, trying hard to convince himself that itās teriyaki. When heās done, he grabs the glass and downs it down to last drop. His beer bong experience has never came in handy like it does in this moment. A hand wipes away some of the liquid around his mouth, and he puts his hands up in the air, signaling completion.
