Substitute Toyokawa Shoko, you can become stronger by breathing

"I feel like... 'it' has been getting more and more aggressive lately. Just now... just now I could even hear 'it' banging on the 'door'!"

The "it" that Mortis mentioned refers to the mysterious personality that was "imprisoned" in the depths of Mu's consciousness and needed to be "corrected".

And that "door" is the mental barrier that Mu set up to isolate "it".

Mu, who was in the center of the stage, slowly opened his eyes, seemingly unaffected by Mortis's anxiety.

She raised her head and looked towards the deepest part of the theater, an area shrouded in thick darkness, as if she could penetrate layers of obstacles and see the imprisoned "existence".

After a moment's silence, Mu spoke softly, his voice ethereal and ethereal, with a kind of almost fatalistic certainty:

"It's ok."

She turned her gaze to Mortis, her eyes calm and gentle, as if comforting this "sister" who lived with her:

"I don't think... 'it' will hurt us."

"But..."

Mortis wanted to say something more, but looking at Mu's eyes which were calm and yet contained some indescribable power, she finally swallowed the rest of her words.

She knew Mu's decision.

I also know that once Mu makes a decision, it will be difficult to change it.

"Okay, okay, whatever you want."

The girl said somewhat self-deprecatingly.

..

at the same time.

Bai Shihu was also shirtless, revealing his sturdy body covered with ferocious tiger tattoos, and leaned casually on the sofa.

He was holding a tablet computer that looked a bit old, and the screen showed the "cooperation information" that Hidehiko Toyokawa had just encrypted and sent to him.

This is a private room on the second floor of a slightly shabby mahjong parlor he owns, located on the edge of Kabukicho.

The air was thick with the smell of cigarettes and some cheap perfume. A few outdated pin-up posters covered the walls, and a few empty bottles lay in the corner. A badly worn leather sofa and a low table covered with ashtrays, empty cups, and a stack of documents provided almost all the furniture in the room.

He quickly swiped the screen, his eyes briefly scanning the text and pictures.

- Such things as using power for personal gain, secretly cultivating personal power, colluding with other factions, etc.

Bai Shihu just sneered.

He was neither interested in nor completely convinced by these twists and turns. In his opinion, the most effective way to deal with a sinister villain like Kimura was to find him and then use his fists to let him know who was the boss.

Gathering evidence, using someone else's knife to kill someone... it was too much trouble, and too girly. However, since Toyokawa Hidehiko was willing to provide "ammunition", he didn't mind using it to cause some real trouble for Kimura.

But this is just a means. The ultimate way to solve the problem must still be Bai Shihuye's style.

His attention was more focused on the second task entrusted by Toyokawa Hidehiko.

A high school girl named "Wakaba Mutsu." The tablet displayed a photo of the girl—long light green hair, an expressionless face, looking slender and quiet.

The information also includes her family background: her father is Wakaba Takafumi and her mother is Mori Minami.

Oh, it's all those frivolous affairs of the rich who live in the spotlight. Bai Shihu had no interest in the gossip of the entertainment industry. Even if he had heard of Wakaba Longwen and Mori Minami's names, it was only to the extent of "Oh, those two stars."

He quickly flipped through the "action suggestions" provided by Toyokawa Hidehiko: sending people to harass the other members of Ave Mujica, creating internal conflicts within the band, spreading rumors that were detrimental to Wakaba Mutsu, using the media to pressure him, and ultimately aiming to intimidate and threaten Wakaba Mutsu so that he would voluntarily leave the band and "voluntarily" return to his mother, Mori Minami...

Looking at these plans that were step-by-step and interconnected, trying to achieve the goal "without bloodshed", Bai Shihu couldn't help but sneer with contempt.

"Tsk, this is so troublesome."

He spat under his breath and tossed the tablet aside.

Why make it so complicated? Threats, discord, and even the media?

These women's tricks are totally useless!

That guy Toyokawa Hidehiko is indeed a coward who only knows how to plot behind people's backs.

In Bai Shihu's opinion, the matter was very simple. Wasn't Toyokawa Hidehiko's goal to make the little girl named Wakaba Mu leave Toyokawa Shoko and return to her mother?

Is this not easy?

Wouldn't it be better to just tie him up and send him back directly?!

He didn't care whether the band would fall apart or pay attention to public pressure.

He didn't care about the grudges and hatreds between the Toyokawa family, the Wakaba family, and Mori Minami behind this.

He was fed up with listening to the dirty deeds going on within the wealthy families.

He only needed to fulfill Toyokawa Hidehiko's request - to get Wakaba Mu "home." As for the method, Toyokawa Hidehiko didn't specify it, so naturally, the most direct and convenient way would be the best!

Just send a few people, find an opportunity to shove that little girl into the car, blindfold her, gag her, and then dump her in front of her mother's house. Wouldn't that be mission accomplished? Clean and neat!

As for what will happen between Toyokawa Shoko and Mori Minami in the future, whether the Roye family will pursue the matter, and what kind of turmoil will arise within the Toyokawa family...that's none of his business.

Bai Shihu is only responsible for "delivering the goods to the door", and the subsequent mess will naturally be dealt with by Toyokawa Hidehiko, who paid the money.

...

Bai Shihu never considered himself a patient person.

He decided to do it himself. Firstly, he didn't trust his idiots to get things done cleanly. If they messed up, he'd have to clean up the mess. Secondly... the restless and violent nature in him needed some "activity" to vent.

Kidnapping a helpless little girl, while not very challenging, was at least more interesting than sitting in an office and reading boring documents.

As the night deepens, the lights come on.

Bai Shihu also drove an inconspicuous, even somewhat shabby black van and parked it in a secluded street corner not far from Yuezhisen Girls' College.

He had a cigarette in his mouth, and his eyes were like a lurking beast, scanning the crowd coming out of the school sharply.

According to the information provided by Hidehiko Toyokawa, the little girl named Wakaba Mutsu usually leaves school early.

He just needed to wait for the right moment and take action the moment she was alone.

Not long after, a figure appeared in his sight.

——It was Wakaba Mutsu, carrying a guitar bag and walking quietly towards the subway station.

It's now!

A fierce light flashed in Bai Shihu's eyes. He suddenly pushed open the car door and rushed out silently like a cheetah.

His movements were astonishingly fast. In just a few breaths, he had already circled behind Ruoye Mu.

Mu seemed to have noticed something, and he paused slightly, just as he was about to turn around -

Bai Shihu has also taken action!

He directly pulled Ruoye Mu into the car and tied her eyes, hands and feet.

"drive."

Bai Shihu also sat in the passenger seat and gave cold instructions to the driver.

The van started its engine and merged silently into Tokyo's night traffic.

The light inside the car was dim, with only the flickering shadows of the streetlights coming through the front window.

Bai Shihu also looked through the rearview mirror at the curled-up figure on the back seat floor.

The girl was tied up tightly, with a black cloth bag covering her head. She was motionless and too quiet.

This made Bai Shihu feel a little puzzled.

This was not the first or second time he had done this. The people who were kidnapped, especially the young girls, were all trembling with fear and sobbing. Even if they were knocked unconscious, they would most likely struggle and cry desperately after waking up.

But this Wakaba Mu... was as quiet as a mana from beginning to end.

Is this little girl frightened out of her wits? Or... is there something wrong?

An inexplicable feeling of irritation came over him. He didn't like the feeling of being out of control.

"Hey."

He turned his head and shouted harshly to the figure in the back seat, trying to break the depressing atmosphere.

no respond.

Bai Shihu also clicked his tongue, impatiently unbuckled his seat belt, and climbed into the back seat.

He squatted down and roughly pulled off the black cloth bag covering Wakaba Mu's head.

He wanted to see if this expressionless face would reveal even the slightest trace of fear in the darkness and despair.

However, when the black cloth bag was pulled off, what Bai Shihu saw was not the fear or tears he had expected.

Those were a pair of golden eyes, as clear and bright as top-grade glass.

In the dim light, there was no panic or fear in those eyes, only a cold, deathly calm.

She just stared at him quietly and calmly, as if she was looking at an...insignificant object.

This look...

Bai Shihuye's heart skipped a beat. A very familiar feeling, yet one that made his scalp tingle, instantly gripped him!

Before he could recover from this sudden strange feeling——

A sudden change occurred!

The girl, whose hands were supposed to be tied tightly, had quietly untied the ropes on her wrists at some point!

The seemingly slender and weak arm suddenly burst out with a speed and strength that was completely inconsistent with its appearance!

Without any warning or unnecessary movements, a clean and powerful right straight punch, with a sound of breaking through the air, came towards Bai Shihuye's face like lightning!

The speed, angle, and explosive power of this punch far exceeded the level of an ordinary high school girl!

It was even more tricky and deadly than the fist of the bald strong man in the ring before!

Bai Shihu's pupils also shrank suddenly!

The instinctive reaction developed through years of fighting left him no time to think, and he subconsciously raised his arm to block!

"boom!"

The fist and arm collided heavily, making a dull thud!

A piercing pain came from his arm, and Bai Shihu even felt his bones crackling!

His arms were numb from the immense force, and his body staggered back involuntarily.

How is this possible?! This little girl's strength...?!

However, what shocked him even more than the severe pain in his arm was the extremely familiar feeling he had just felt when he blocked the block!

The way the punches landed... the rhythm of the attack... the impeccable judgment and timing hidden beneath the seemingly simple and direct movements...

He suddenly raised his head and looked at the girl in front of him again.

The girl missed her attack and didn't pursue immediately. She simply stood there, maintaining her icy calm. Her golden eyes, like two bottomless pools, stared at him indifferently, without anger, fear, or even... without any emotion belonging to "Ruoye Mu."

That look...

That cold, indifferent look that seemed to have everything under control...

Bai Shihuye's breathing suddenly stagnated. A figure buried deep in his memory, which made him both awed and terrified, instantly overlapped with the girl in front of him!

Impossible... Absolutely impossible...

But...that look...

That's clearly...

The boss's eyes?!
