Chapter 306

306 Unusual

Black was a girl. She was a figure who from the beginning of her appearance had caused an uproar in the dark world of Handway City, which was ruled by men. She was the figure that possessed terrifying fighting abilities, the figure who succeeded in destroying the four major gangster groups.

However, the thing that surprised Calvin Lee and the rest of the Jita Kyoei core team was who was the woman inside the mask of the Black figure. That girl was Emma Hilland, their own friend.

Isn’t it very funny, that the person who made you curious to death, turns out to be very close to you?

“Looks like you guys were so shocked you couldn’t even speak,” Emma said with a grin.

“You... really are Emma Hilland, aren’t you? Am I dreaming?” Calvin muttered, still trying to believe his eyes.

“I’m Emma Hilland. Sorry for lying to you all this time.” Emma said in a loud voice, so that all Jita Kyoei could hear.

“No way!” Martin exclaimed while grabbing his hair.

“Why, Emma? What’s the point of all this?” Calvin stood on her side.

“You should already know what I mean. I want to destroy the gangsters in this city. That’s all.” Emma answered.

.....

“I mean, why are you doing this? This is very dangerous, Emma. Look, you’re badly hurt now.” Calvin said. His face grimaced seeing the number of wounds on the face of the girl he loved. “Those bastards...” he muttered, clenching his fists tightly.

Calvin immediately turned around and stepped roughly towards Creed who was lying unconscious because he was beaten by Rachel. “He’s dead meat now,”

“Leave it, Calvin! You’ll get yourself in legal trouble.” Ian immediately blocked him. He knew Calvin could truly kill Creed. He would not hesitate, even though Creed was in a stupor.

“You don’t have to do that, Calvin,” Emma said loudly, making Calvin stop his track.

“Yes, I’m injured. However, you must not forget that I am Black, who has been your fighting partner all this time. You must not forget that I was the one who attacked the main headquarters of Hell Gate, Creeper, and Beast Empire. Just like you, I’m used to getting hurt.” Emma continued.

“I am indeed a woman. However, I am not weak. I am strong. And I have proven it to you.” She continued in a louder tone.

“Damn. I didn’t think women could be this shocking,” Ian muttered.

“Maybe it’s because you underestimate us too much,”

Ian instantly turned to the girl’s voice that answered him. Kathy smiled at him. Ian gaped even more.

Emma looked at Kathy. “Why do you take off your mask?”

“What? Your mask is also open,” Kathy replied casually.

“But... If your identity is exposed...”

“We’ll be fine, Emma.” Poppy cut her after removing her mask as well.

“It’s like you said, Emma. We are strong women. Although the risk of crime is more vulnerable to women, we can protect ourselves. And we don’t need to be afraid because Black Swan protects each other.” Linda added before taking off her mask.

One by one, all Black Swan women removed their masks in front of Emma and Jita Kyoei.

All the men were flabbergasted to find that the men they thought were men were actually women. Yes, all Black members were female. They weren’t schoolboys or midgets.

“Black Swan?” Frank repeated what one of the girls had said.

Emma nodded. “Our name is not Black. Our real group name is Black Swan.”

“What the hell...” Nicko muttered when the man beside him took off his mask. It was Britney. The girl even gave him a friendly smile.

“F*ck! I can’t believe this. Is the world going to end?” Troy said while holding his head. He didn’t know what to say or how to act anymore.

Seeing all this chaos, finally, Ian, the sanest person in Jita Kyoei’s core team, stepped forward.

“Emma, ??we need to talk about this. We can’t all look at each other in this place.” He said.

Emma nodded. “You’re right. We should talk about the Dragger’s treasure that fell into our hands, right?” she smiled.

“We can go to Jita Kyoei headquarters to discuss...”

“No need. Your place is too small and messy. This time, I will be the host.” Emma cut with a big smile.

She would show who the real Emma Hilland was and how great the Black Swan group was.

Black’s identity had been exposed. Now, Emma would show her base to the Jita Kyoei core team. 𝘧𝓇𝗲e𝑤𝑒𝙗noѵ𝒆𝚕. 𝒄o𝓶

In the middle of the night, a group of motorbikes stopped in front of a pretty building with a glass door that had a sign with a swan motif that read ‘CLOSE’ hanging on the inside.

Ian took out his cell phone from the pocket of his brown leather jacket. He re-read the address given by Emma.

“This is the place,” Ian said to Troy and Calvin who were on his right and left riding their respective motorbikes.

“Ah... of course,” Calvin muttered with his head looking up to stare at the building’s nameplate.

The fact that Poppy’s ballet studio was Black’s headquarters made the boys laugh. No wonder not a single gangster managed to find the headquarters of the Black group. Even if they searched for years, while Black still managed to cover up their identity, then no one would be able to find its base.

“They’re smart,” Ian muttered.

After Calvin called Emma, ??not long after, a girl in a baby blue long pyjama suit emerged from the studio. She opened the glass door and came out. “Hi,”

“Hi, Emma.” Martin greeted too kindly, as usual.

“Where should we park our bikes?” Troy asked directly.

Emma didn’t answer and instead approached Calvin. “Can I have a ride for a while?”

The man smiled faintly. “Of course,”

“Thank you,” Emma said as she climbed onto his motorbike.

“You’re not wearing a helmet?” Calvin asked.

Emma shook her head. “It’s near,”

Then, Emma directed Calvin to ride his motorbike down another block which led them to the building behind Poppy’s studio. Calvin’s motorbike rode in front, so the others just had to follow it.

They arrived in front of a building that looked empty. The building had window panes covered with newspaper and no lights were on, even at the front. It made the outside of the building and the street in front of it a bit dark.

Emma asked Calvin to stop before she jumped down. She pressed the bell button beside the fences which were the only entrance to the building. Only after a few seconds, the fences open to reveal two girls inside. The two girls were in charge of guarding the fences for today.

“Thank you. girls,” Emma said as she stepped inside.

“That’s okay, Emma. I’ll direct them into the parking lot.” One of the girls replied.

Then Emma turned to the group of men on motorbikes. “Follow her. You will be directed to the parking lot. Park the bikes neatly and don’t be noisy please.”

“I know,” Troy answered lazily. “She’s as fussy as your mother,” he said to Ian, which the man responded with a chuckle.
