Japanese Terrorist: What? I'll fight Hellstar!

"What else do you want to ask? Go ahead and ask."

Seeing Yu Gonglin's attitude, the head balloons also started urging.

"First, could you kill the wrong person? And what would happen if you did?"

"Secondly, must the target you kill be Fujino Terumi? Or someone whose appearance is exactly like yours? Or a body possessing Fujino Terumi's soul?"

"Third, where does your power begin to take effect? ​​In the scalp? And when does it begin to take effect? ​​From the moment you were born?"

"Fourth, what if the person you're trying to kill survives even after being beheaded?"

After a moment's thought, Amamiya Rin cautiously raised several key questions.

"So many questions~~"

Faced with a barrage of questions from Amamiya Rin, the head balloon was slightly troubled.

But seeing that the human head balloon didn't answer, Amamiya Rin was about to ask a new question.

"Are you an isolated case? If not, where are your kind? How are they born, and what are the rules governing their birth?"

This relentless pursuit even created a sense of pressure for the person holding the balloon.

It didn't have time to carefully consider the hidden intentions behind Amamiya Rin's questions, nor did it have time to judge which information should be revealed and which should be concealed.

"……snort."

The human-shaped balloon made a muffled nasal sound and finally spoke.

"I won't kill the wrong person; my lasso will only target Fujino Terumi."

With an attitude that it didn't matter even if Amamiya Rin found out, the human-headed balloon answered his questions straightforwardly.

"The only target for killing was Fujino Terumi. As for souls and such, I don't understand such mysterious things. Someone whose appearance is 100% identical to mine? You could say that, but don't even think about escaping through plastic surgery. If Fujino Terumi's appearance changes, my appearance will change in the same way."

"Where does the power begin to take effect? ​​The scalp? That sounds like a strange question."

It repeated Amamiya Rin's words, blinked its huge eyes, and felt that the question was a bit strange, but did not delve into it.

"Pretty much. From the moment I was born, I established a one-way connection with Terumi Fujino's head. Whenever I am damaged, the same wound will appear on Terumi Fujino's scalp, and all the tissue inside will turn into gas and leak out."

The human-shaped balloon paused, then issued a warning to Amamiya Rin.

"Also, don't even think about damaging her scalp to make me leak air. The impact is one-sided; only I can affect her. Her injury won't affect me."

"Moreover, my influence is continuous. From the moment I was born, the skin on her head was destined to become nylon. Even if she is safe and sound now, her skin will become nylon in a month at the latest."

"As for immortality... that's wishful thinking. How could such a thing possibly exist?"

Is this an isolated case? I don't know.

For the last question, it merely wavered and gave a vague answer.

Amamiya Rin took out her notebook from the violin case and quickly and clearly recorded every piece of information revealed by the human head balloon.

Intelligence confirmed:

1. Target Targeting: Uniqueness. A mechanism ensures a 100% identical appearance for the individual "Fujino Terumi." (If plastic surgery cannot sever the connection, then what about giving up one's own appearance?)

2. Connection Mechanism: Unidirectional influence, established at birth, with the suspected point of effect being the scalp skin layer. (Is it only the skin layer? On the surface, yes, but when the curse takes effect, the internal layers of the skin will also be fatally affected.)

3. Synchronized damage: When the balloon is damaged, the skin and underlying tissues at the corresponding location on the target's head are mimicked as being damaged and vaporized.

4. Irreversible transformation: The target scalp is destined to become "nylon-like," a process that continues and can be completed within a month at most. (No solution.)

5. Suspected lack of similar consciousness: This is the case at present, but according to information from the previous life and the original story, after Fujino Terumi's death, other human head balloons will gradually appear. The pattern is: starting with people who were close to Fujino Terumi (doubtful), and then people who had a death wish because of Fujino Terumi (doubtful).

As Amamiya Rin's expression grew increasingly serious during the analysis and recording process.

No wonder the human head balloon is so fearless.

From the moment it was born, Terumi Fujino was already doomed to an irreversible dead end.

However... if that's all there is to it, there is a solution!

There are at least three ways to deal with the "head balloon" problem.

But it's only a possibility.

Each plan is based on fragile assumptions and is fraught with unknown risks.

Amamiya Rin closed his notebook, subconsciously turned around, his gaze sweeping across the living room, landing on Fujino Terumi standing next to the sofa, leaning against the back of the sofa.

Their eyes met in mid-air.

Fujino Terumi felt a sudden tremor in her heart. Amamiya Rin's eyes held thoughts she couldn't understand, making her extremely uneasy.

Before she could figure out the meaning of that look, Amamiya Rin suddenly moved.

Without warning, he took a step back, gripped the handle of the balcony glass door with his right hand, and pulled it inward.

"It's getting late, let's not bother each other any longer, goodbye."

The sound of the glass door sliding and closing was crisp and clean, followed by the rustling sound of the curtains being quickly drawn shut. The blackout curtains blocked out the night outside the balcony and also blocked the huge face that was suspended in mid-air.

The bright and warm living room instantly distanced itself from the eerie and gloomy atmosphere outside.

The human-shaped balloon in mid-air outside the balcony was stunned. It hovered in place for a long time without making a sound.

Those huge eyes blinked blankly, clearly not expecting that Yu Gonglin, who had just been asking and answering questions and testing each other, would turn on her so quickly.

"Hey! Lin-jun, what does this mean?"

It paused for a few seconds before floating forward half a meter, pressing its entire face against the cold glass door, and shouting at the blurry figure inside.

The sound, coming through the glass, sounded dull and irritating.

"It doesn't mean anything special."

Amamiya Rin's voice came from behind the curtain, clear yet cold.

"It's getting late, and Huimei and I both need to rest. Let's end our conversation here."

"So... what is this?! Hey! Answer me! Rin-kun? Amamiya Rin!"

Faced with this almost perfunctory reply, the human-shaped balloon grumbled in dissatisfaction, even gently bumping its forehead against the glass, making a dull "thump" sound.

However, it is not very strong, at least not strong enough to break glass. When the mechanism is fully activated, its values ​​are abnormally low, so no matter how angry it is, it is just doing useless work.

Inside the house, Yu Gonglin no longer responded; only the light reflected on the curtains outlined his blurry silhouette as he walked deeper into the living room.
