I said you are all war criminals

"Damn it..." Xiangzi cursed in a low voice.

She had seen the ruthless individuals in the dark culinary world, treating humans as ingredients, wantonly toying with them, and cooking them into so-called "dishes." She thought she had seen the lowest depths of human nature, but the information from the Wildfire organization had once again refreshed her understanding of "cruelty."

To study the regenerative abilities of half-demons, a certain country strapped them to operating tables and repeatedly cut and dismembered them like vegetables. Blood splattered, staining the entire laboratory red. Even through the thick data bags, Xiangzi could almost hear the half-demons' screams. They were treated like animals, observed, and recorded. The speed of their healing and the size of their wounds were meticulously documented. These cold words, however, were more chilling than any form of torture.

Another nation sought to weaponize the special abilities of half-demon. They imprisoned them in small, secret chambers and repeatedly shocked them with high-intensity electric currents, claiming to "replenish their energy" and help them awaken. Drug injections, mind control, and other brutal experiments caused many half-demon to suffer mental breakdowns or even die. Those distorted faces, those empty eyes, those desperate wails... What infuriated her even more was the fact that in the experimental records, those half-demon who had been repeatedly shocked actually awakened. These lunatics had actually found a shortcut. Even without Chef Dragon, they could awaken half-demon.

"Those bastards..." Xiangzi punched the wall hard, the tiles making a dull thud. She thought of the half-demons being used as organ banks, their organs arbitrarily harvested for transplant experiments. The images of them being dissected alive, the remains of limbs discarded in the trash... Xiangzi could barely breathe, feeling a burning rage scorching through her.

Xiangzi wiped his face vigorously, trying to calm himself down.

Just then, there was a gentle knock on the bathroom door.

"Who?" Xiangzi turned on the faucet.

"it's me."

The refreshing tone spreads out.

It was Kita Ikuyo.

She's also a member of the Wildfire, but unlike Shoko, who's more of a combatant, Kita serves more as a researcher. Together with her assistant, Kanesada, she's developed a method for safely awakening hanyou—through prolonged drinking of highly purified Golden God Water, a process that slowly awakens hanyou. In this sense, Kita is far more important than Shoko, perhaps even more so than Hakuno.

Xiangzi wrapped himself in a bath towel and opened the door.

Kita was sprawled across Xiangzi's bed, one leg casually bent, the other stretched out. Her snow-white thighs shone softly in the dim light. She wore only a loose white shirt, the hem rolled up, revealing a large expanse of smooth skin. Her cascading red hair cascaded across the white sheets, like fine satin or a blooming rose, shimmering with a hazy luster in the light. Through her hair, the pale nape of her neck and the delicate contours of her collarbone were faintly visible.

Drops of water dripped down Xiangzi's hair, leaving dark circles of stains on the wooden floor. She was wrapped in a bath towel, and her exposed skin still retained the heat from the bath, making it white and almost transparent. Seeing Kita Ikuyo lying casually on his bed, Xiangzi felt a little uncomfortable and subconsciously pulled at the bath towel, "Kita, this is not your room."

Kita Ikuyo turned over, her red hair as flamboyant as flames scattered on the bed, and her beautiful skin color was faintly visible through her open white coat. "Oh, we are all girls, what are you afraid of? Besides, your figure is nothing to look at." As she said that, she looked Xiangzi up and down and smacked her lips a few times.

"It's the same for you," Xiangzi said with a slight twitch of his lips. "What do you want to say?"

"I say, you like Bai Ye, right?"

Kita chuckled and said, "We're all girls, there's no point trying to lie to us."

"No, don't talk nonsense." Xiangzi was caught off guard by Kita Ikuyo's sudden question. She was stunned for a moment and retorted subconsciously.

Kita Ikuyo just smiled, sat up from the bed, and handed Xiangzi a document. "This is the latest research report on the purification technology of the Golden God Water. Take a look."

Xiangzi took the document and flipped through a few pages hastily, but her mind was completely unable to focus on it. She threw the document on the bedside table in frustration, scratched her hair in annoyance, and finally couldn't help but say, "Hakuno is Deng's husband."

"Deng has been dead for two years," Kita said shrugly, "Besides, when Deng was alive, he and Hakuno hadn't married yet... right?"

Hakuno married Deng's corpse after returning from the moon. This, of course, would not have any legal protection. From this perspective, Hakuno was still single, and Deng was never Hakuno's wife.

The marriage between Xiangzi and Bai Ye can be said to be reasonable and legal.

“…The light is my friend.”

Xiangzi pursed her lips. She would never do such a heartless thing.

"Is that so? What a shame. However, I can only advise you... I hope you won't regret it."

Kita stood up, slapped his thigh, and then walked quickly to the door of Xiangzi's room.

"Also, don't do this kind of thing with Miss Kita's face next time, Kanesada."

When "Xiduo" and Xiangzi passed by each other, Xiangzi whispered this.

"Xiduo is not such a tactless person."

Kanesada is a half-demon with a "living armor" that can transform into the appearance of anyone who wears it. Kanesada's most frequent teammate is, of course, her close friend Kita Ikuyo.

"Xiduo" paused for a moment, then walked quickly again, leaving only this sentence.

"I'm just advising you not to regret it... After all, there are more than one person who shares the same thoughts as you."

"Kita" is gone.

Xiangzi slowly walked into the bathroom and looked at himself in the mirror.

Then she spoke in a low voice.

"Toyokawa Shoko, you're disgusting."

Next is the testimonial

Another new book is on the shelves.

Let me just talk about my journey.

To be honest, since this isn't the first time it's on the shelves, I'd be embarrassed to write a short essay about how grateful I am or how much I love Hedgehog Cat.

how to say.

I have been writing for seven years now, on HedgehogCat.

2015-12-10 00: 22: 31

This is the time for my first chapter on Hedgehog Cat.

How many words did you write in total?

This book doesn't count

My Cousin Has Three Years to Live (6726831 words)

"Your Hero Academia" was removed from the shelves after 58222 words. This is to blame the hedgehog cat, and has little to do with his hero. His heroism was exposed much later.

"Vtuber Falls in Love with Paper Man" 844334 words, suspended due to hololive's thunder

I wrote 221744 words for "The Cartoonist Who Traveled to Anime" because of the college entrance examination. Although I won the runner-up or the championship, I didn't continue writing.

The chat group is full of strangers. I wrote 1656598 words. Later, I wrote about Umineko, but it became bad because of my poor writing skills.

"Starting from the Girls' Opera JOJO", only 1258337 words were written, because the outline was completely rotten due to repeated hospitalizations for pancreatitis

"Uma Musume Pure Love Record" has 535859 words. During this period, I was repeatedly hospitalized for pancreatitis and I didn't have the emotion to write any more.

I wrote 976932 words for "The Quiet Daily Life of Boys and Girls" and then it fell apart. I was also sick, but that wasn't the main reason.

Academy City's Amamiya Ren (699543 words) I couldn't continue writing due to depression caused by medication.

"Shoko Toyokawa, Will Make a Fortune in Academy City" was hastily concluded with 382599 words, and about 20 words of plot were cut.

...Other books that only have a few thousand words at the beginning don’t count.

Adding up, it can be regarded as an author with tens of millions of words in unfinished works.

I'm not saying anything about finishing the book, just trust me or something like that.

Just think about it, my book has been filled with 11 treasure chests by the boss. If I run away, the boss will definitely buy my hands and feet.

So, Ole Ge!

I'm going to finish all the words I haven't written before for the sake of a book!

Chapter 66: Yukinoshita, the Messenger of Justice.

As his consciousness faded, Bai Ye felt the pungent smell of disinfectant enter his nose. He struggled to open his eyes, but everything was blurry. His entire body ached, as if it had been disassembled and reassembled. After a few seconds, his vision gradually focused, and he could clearly see the white ceiling and the IV stand beside the bed.

"you're awake?"

A dry voice sounded in his ears.

Hakuno turned his head with difficulty and saw Yukinoshita Yukino sitting in a chair beside the bed. Her face was covered with a white mask, half of her face was obscured so that no trace of skin could be seen. A gas tube connected to a gas cylinder hanging from her waist. Beneath the gas tube, dark red scars could be seen on her neck.

Her breathing was so thick that it sounded like concentrated sulfuric acid, making people shudder.

"Yanaimi wasn't able to evacuate you in time, and half of your body was burned by the flames. However, I didn't tell those people about your injuries. I only said that you planned to rest."

"……well done."

Bai Ye raised the corner of his mouth, "You too, did a good job."

Bai Ye coughed twice, and his throat felt rough as if it had been polished by sandpaper.

"How long have I been unconscious?"

"Three days."

Yukinoshita Yukino's voice was flat and steady, "Three days is enough time for people outside to make a big fuss about your 'death'."

Hakuno closed his eyes, feeling the waves of pain radiating from his body, as if countless ants were gnawing at his bones. Although Yanami's healing abilities were formidable, this injury was indeed severe, and even he would not be able to fully recover in a short period of time.

"What's going on outside now?"

“It’s a mess.”

Yukinoshita Yukino chuckled softly, but the laughter sounded particularly strange under the filter of the mask and respirator.

"Everyone believes you were silenced for revealing the 'truth.' Even your beloved subordinates firmly believe those nations were responsible. Everyone believes you are innocent and a hero."

She paused, a hint of amusement in her tone.

"Of course, no one would have guessed that this was a play you staged and acted out yourself. Burning yourself like this is truly... cruel."

Then, Yukinoshita Yukino was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke.

"Next, if you kill me, you'll be the only one in the world who knows the truth. Completely safe, isn't it?"

Hakuno didn't immediately respond to Yukinoshita's words, but struggled to get up. A sharp pain emanated from the burned area, causing him to groan. Seeing this, Yukinoshita stepped forward to help him and set him on the pillow. The overly rough movement affected Hakuno's wound, causing him to gasp in pain.

"Gentle...hiss..."

Hakuno said through gritted teeth, feeling like his internal organs had shifted.

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at his painful expression, and the corners of her mouth under the mask seemed to curl up slightly, but she did not express anything, just stood quietly by the side, waiting for his answer.

Bai Ye finally spoke, his voice hoarse as a broken bellows: "Kill you? Why would I kill you?"

He paused and swallowed hard. The burning sensation in his throat made him cough a few times.

"Ahem... I know better than anyone how many sins you've shouldered, and I also know better than anyone how much you...long for justice."

Yukinoshita Yukino was silent for a moment, and the regular hissing sound of the ventilator was particularly harsh in the quiet ward.

"Justice? What a ridiculous word."

Her tone was cold, as if it came from the depths of hell.

"I just killed tens of thousands of people."

"He was killed three days ago, right?"

Bai Ye twisted his mouth, "Besides, I ordered you to kill him."

"Yes, you told everyone that this speech was for justice."

A hint of mockery seeped from Yukino's respirator. "And then, you asked me to shoot a fireball at that building."

She scoffed, "Is this justice?"

"Oh, justice..."

Bai Ye scoffed, as if he'd heard something funny. Waves of burning pain washed over him, forcing him to take deep breaths and maintain his rhythm. "I never cared about that. This world is rotten, rotten to the core. Those politicians who sit on the sidelines, those greedy tycoons, those whose souls are bound by gravity—they're the real sinners. All I do is uproot them and establish a new order."

Hakuno's voice was hoarse and low, "I want to build a world where even half-demons can benefit."

"A world where half-demons... benefit?"

Yukinoshita Yukino's voice sounded like she was holding ice chips in her mouth, hissing, and intertwined with the sound of her respirator, it was creepy.

"Do you think... I will still believe your nonsense?"

She slowly raised her hand and unfastened the buckle of her mask. Bai Ye's eyes were fixed on her movements, and he knew what he was going to see next.

The mask was taken off, revealing not the delicate face of Yukinoshita Yukino, but a face... that is difficult to describe in words.

The skin on the lower half of her face was ulcerated and pitted, as if it had been splashed with sulfuric acid, making it look hideous. Her lips were swollen and cracked, revealing her white teeth and a tongue that looked like rags.

"You know what I want... I don't want justice, I want revenge."
