The Beloved Daughter of the Crime Family, Even After Reincarnation Became the Young Lady of a Gangst

Chapter 102

Scenario

Te protagonist was at her wit’s end seeing Graziano in this state, but somehow she managed to call for help from the family members, and carry him to the hospital.

(After that, Graziano would remain in the hospital in the capital getting treatment, and while the protagonist would be left unable to continue the investigation, the news of Graziano’s father’s assassination would arrive. That was how the story was set in the game……..)

But Francesca had a hunch.

(During the drugs incident, most incidents followed the Chapter 1 of the game, even if the finer details and the cast of characters changed, the broad events remained the same as always.)

No matter how much she tried to avoid it, Francesca would end up getting dragged into the game’s events.

(The party I was supposed to attend with Ricardo, I ended up going with Leonardo instead. I was supposed to save Ricardo from getting shot, but instead Papa ended up saving me from getting shot instead…….)

Which means, the events of the game may get rearranged , but something resembling the original event was bound to occur.

(In this scene, if someone other than me was also here, that person would have definitely gotten badly hurt and would have had to suffer instead……….)

That’s why, Francesca made sure that no one else got on to this carriage other than herself.

Having brought them down to the last man, Francesca and the enemy aimed guns at each other, and she continued to grip the gun tightly.

(If I face the event all on my own, there’s a chance I’ll get shot instead. But, if it’s me, I’m sure it won’t be fatal. After all…..)

Having reincarnated, [Francesca] was the game world’s protagonist.

(It’s not something I want to think of but, in the chance that one of the other ‘playable’ characters were to die, they might simply get replaced by someone else and the story will continue. But the one exception to that, a person that cannot be replaced, is the protagonist. i.e. Me.)

Francesca story could not be written if she were to die. If the protagonist changes, then it might as well be a different story.

(I am at the centre of the main scenario. As long as I remain ‘me’, I will never be able to avoid that. Only I alone have the guarantee that I won’t die, and if that is truly my unavoidable destiny then…….)

Without moving the gun even an inch from the man who showed no opening, Francesca hardened hr resolve.

(In times like these, I should be the only one who gets put in danger. Born as the protagonist, yet being a villain that is trying to run away from my own story, this is my unbreakable resolve……!!)

Villains must never drag innocent people into their own problems. As she quietly observed the man, his gun wavered just slightly.

“Kuh………”

A slight gap, just enough to hit his vitals opened up. Francesca aimed her non-lethal resin bullet and was about to fire it at his chin, it was just at that moment.

“——-I’m here to pick you up, Francesca-chan!”

“!”

From the other side of the forest, a sweet voice of a woman echoed.

“Ara? Was it my imagination? I swear I saw her beautiful red hair but……….”

(no way.)

Francesca turned around, and heard a relieved voice.

“Ah you were here after all Francesca-chan! I was right to follow the carriage tracks, right………”

From inside the forest appeared a beautiful woman. It was the woman that had been chased by the man from Savini household by the riverbed and had been saved by Graziano. The prostitute from the Ranieri household.

The woman had a stole wrapped around her delicate shoulders as she blinked in surprise.

“Eh………..? What’s going on….”

“This bitch………SHIT!! My face got seen now, then………..!!”

“NOOO!!!!”

The man aimed his gun at the lady instead, as Francesca quickly pulled her trigger. The resin bullet hit his hand and then another at his stomach but, even as he collapsed, he still tried to pull the trigger.

“N, noo……..!!”

(I don’t have the time to aim…….!!)

Francesca dashed, to cover the lady who had squatted down on the ground from fear. She jumped between the lady and the man, and tried to shield her from the bullet.

(In the end, it really did end up like the scenario…….!)

Confident in the reality of her getting shot, she held her breath to brace herself, just when…

“GAH……….!!”

“!!?”

A lightning-like light flashed, as the man screamed in pain.

(Leonardo’s skill? But, no, it’s somewhat different……..!)

She didn’t know what had happened but, now as not the time to hesitate. Francesca quickly dashed in towards the man and then lunged at his arm.

“Hand over the gun……!!”

“Let, me go!!”

She was met with a strong resistance but she grabbed on to the man’s gun and successfully closed the safety lock on it.

The man quickly raised his fist to hit her, it was at that moment.

“……..!!!”
