Unjust Anime, but with Death Note

"Come to think of it, why do you look familiar to me? Have we met somewhere before?"

The internet celebrity's words brought everyone back to reality: "I, I remember now, you're the one who said you wanted to take advantage of the first wave of traffic at the entrance of Araki Financial Company?!"

"So, he brought us here because we were the first ones at the door that day?"

"Just for this reason, you brought us here? This is too... too ridiculous!"

"That doesn't seem right. I wasn't at the door at the time. I was discussing business nearby."

"I'm in the hotel with my girlfriend ○○!"

"These are not the main points! So is Kira really among us? There seems to be no movement outside. After Kira killed them, he didn't attack us again!"

Everyone was talking about it, but they no longer had the fear they had when they were first kidnapped here.

Even though Kira was a complete murderer, staying in a room like this more or less gave him a sense of insecurity, as if his life was not under his control. The blood on his hands was probably more than that of all the breadmen who had been killed, but... they were not afraid at all.

Because they were the first group of onlookers of the Kira incident, they knew more about Kira than the average Chiba citizen.

The most important premise for Kira to do things is that he does not kill ordinary people.

His reputation as a psychopathic murderer was based on the bodies of the criminals and had nothing to do with ordinary citizens like them, and that... was enough.

The internet celebrity's thoughts began to stir again. After he got out of here alive, could he use this to his advantage? He was an eyewitness and survivor of the Kira murders.

He could even use the "golden water" Kira personally distributed to establish a private Kira fan club, with himself as the leader. Leveraging Kira's fans and traffic, he could create buzz and traffic for himself, eventually starting a livestream. Once traffic reached a peak, he could start selling goods through livestreams! In the later stages, he could even profit immensely by selling items labeled "Kira's hair" or "Kira's bath water" to his followers without any investment.

Anyway, Kira only killed those criminals who committed serious crimes. He was just using his fame to make money, so his crime did not deserve the death penalty.

The bold die of overeating, the timid die of starvation. The internet celebrity has completed his future career plan in a short period of time.

"Everyone, listen to me!"

After a while.

Light Yagami turned around and faced the crowd. Many people were shocked when they saw him. Light Yagami looked truly horrible. He was covered in blood, and there was hardly a single spot on his body that was clean.

Even though Light Yagami tried his best to show his friendly side, he still gave people a sense of fierceness. His previous image of a gentle, kind, shy and innocent high school boy was no longer there.

"What that guy just said may not be true. I was eating in the restaurant at the time, which means we didn't all meet at the door. But I think that if Kira was really among us, he wouldn't dare to kill us. That would only reduce the number of survivors and increase his own risk of exposure. I think Kira must understand this!"

"And Kira won't hurt innocent people like us! Kira will only kill the villains who deserve to die! So there's no need for us to be afraid."

Although Light Yagami now looked like a killer, his words seemed to have some kind of magic that slowly soothed the fear in people's hearts.

Just as he said, "Kira" did not attack the people here again.

Light Yagami secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although the mysterious public security officer had no regard for life, he wasn't crazy enough to kill ordinary people like them.

Outside the house, the sound of hurried trotting could be faintly heard. It was clearly other members of the Truth Cult's security detail who had heard the commotion and come to confirm the situation. However, the trotting had vanished just as quickly as it had arrived. Yagami Light suspected they had been frightened away by the bloody scene.

But today he has temporarily lost the power of the Death Note and is arguably at his most vulnerable.

The only thing he has left is his strong body that has been strengthened over the years as a means of survival. He doesn't even need anyone with super powers to target him. As long as there are a dozen muscular bread men, Light Yagami is not sure if he can withstand it.

Was his physical enhancement merely pushing him to the limits of an average person, or was it still within the normal range? It didn't strengthen him to the point of becoming a Japanese captain. Having only learned combat techniques online, Light Yagami himself didn't even know how strong he was.

After the initial shock wore off, the other party would soon react to the people in the room, and it was hard to say what they would do. By then, Light Yagami would have to rely on his own body to fight.

"This is really troublesome..." Yagami Light narrowed his eyes. He had to admit that this was the most dangerous time since he had traveled through time. If he wasn't careful, he could lose his life here.

Now that things have come to this, let’s get help!

"Everyone, does anyone have a cell phone hidden on them? We need to contact the police for help right now. This is probably the headquarters of the Truth Cult, and there might be other villains out there."

"I...I have one here. I usually carry an extra one with me because I have to deal with phone searches at school."

"Okay, give me your phone. I know a police officer there."

Light Yagami smiled and reached out, taking the phone from the boy. He logged into his social media app and sent Ryougi Shiki his current coordinates and an SOS sign without further explanation.

He raced against time to call Machima: "Hello, Miss Machima, I'm..."

But before Light Yagami could finish his words, a purple arrow pierced through the cell phone in his hand. The arrow had terrifying penetrating power and it pierced the distant wall with Light Yagami's blood and the remains of the cell phone.

……

……

"This afternoon is a crucial time for the election. Immediately destroy all traces of the scene. Absolutely do not leave any so-called 'evidence' to the media or the police!"

"Did you hear me."

An emergency call came in from the office of Nakagawa Tomomasa, the deputy leader of the Chiba branch of the Shinrikyo.

In Chiba, Nakagawa Tomomasa, who enjoyed the same rights as the deceased Hayakawa Kiyo, was unable to breathe after hearing the order from the leader Asahara Shoko.

In any case, he never expected such a shocking change to happen.

This afternoon was a crucial day for the leader's candidacy, a day that would mark the rise of the entire Truth Church. That bastard, Hayakawa Kiyo, had the audacity to reveal the church's secrets in front of the media.

Putting aside the fact that he confessed all the evidence under Kira's manipulation, does he not have any problems at all? Does he not have the willpower to resist Kira?

Did his family come in wholesale?

Damn Hayakawa Kiyo! Damn Kira!

Nakagawa Tomomasa was about to comply when his men came running in from the doorway, reporting, "Lord Nakagawa! This is bad. Our men have spotted police outside the dojo. We seem to be... surrounded."

"Damn it, how did it come so fast?!"

Nakagawa Tomomasa exclaimed. The Truth Cult's influence in Chiba had long been consolidated, and they had even established connections within the Chiba Police Department. Even if their dirty laundry were exposed in front of the media, they would likely procrastinate and drag their feet, waiting until the leader had given them enough respect before they could even symbolically apply for a search warrant to raid their branch.

This should be the truth.

But why did they come so quickly this time? It completely exceeded his stereotype of Japanese police, and this was despite all the efforts. They were simply turning their backs on him, as if they had received orders in advance to target the Shinrikyo, without even a single person tipping them off.

Little did he know that this was not a legal procedure at all.

Instead, the Chiba Police Chief was essentially having a gun pointed at his head by Himeno, forcing him to mobilize all Chiba police officers from top to bottom to surround and search the Shinrikyo.

The order was not based on the negative information revealed by Hayakawa Kiyo, but on the fact that the Shinrikyo church was harboring Kira. This was the most important thing. The masters could not care less about public opinion or the dirty deeds of the Shinrikyo church. They only cared about when they could kill Kira, the super criminal who could threaten their lives at any time!

This was an order from the Public Security Department, which was equivalent to an order from the Chief Cabinet Secretary and even the entire Cabinet.

The police chief complained bitterly about this. Taking money and not delivering the goods was breaking the rules, but orders from above were orders from above. In the face of power, money had to take a back seat. He didn't want to be pointed at his head with the gun of power, as Ji Ye did. Should bad people be pointed at guns?!

Nakagawa Tomomasa was completely overwhelmed. Evidence hidden within the stadium, evidence that could land them in prison for life or more, was innumerable. Surrounded by police, they had absolutely no time to process or remove it.

For a moment, the thought of "surrendering" and "betraying the leader" started to creep into his mind. He spoke stiffly into the phone, "Leader, we might be surrounded by the Chiba police."

"What?! Assholes! I usually ask you to give money to the chief of the Chiba Police Station, but you embezzled that money?"

"How dare we disobey your orders, Master!" Nakagawa Zhizheng complained bitterly, "Why don't you ask the Director what's going on?"

"There are simply too many incriminating documents in the arena, including specially crafted human weapons and seventeen people kidnapped by the Ministry of Self-Government under Hayakawa Kiyo's orders. There's no way to handle or transfer them."

"What?! You're planning a kidnapping at this critical moment?!"

Asahara Shoko was already furious, but thinking that his men were not completely brainless, he suppressed his anger and asked, "Why kidnap people?"

"I don't know... I don't know. You know Duanmu's personality, BOSS. He keeps talking about 'secrets to make men more manly' and says he won't tell us until he gets the results."

"...You bastard..." After a series of meaningless curses, Asahara Shoko gave another order: "I'm going to ask the chief of the Chiba Police Station now. You immediately go and ask that fellow Duan Benwu about this in my name!"

beep—

The busy tone reached the ears of both of them.

Nakagawa Tomomasa waved his hand blankly, ordering his men to search for Duan Benwu for answers. Within moments, another round of panicked trotting could be heard. Even before anyone arrived, the younger brother's terrified cry could be heard: "Boss, this is bad! Dead, dead! All dead!"

"What the hell?!" Masatomo Nakagawa looked at his younger brother in surprise.

"They are all dead. The grounds of the Autonomous Department are all covered in blood. There is nothing but blood. There are no bodies left. Only clothes scattered on the ground. Hell, that is hell!" The younger brother's face was pale, and it was obvious that he was frightened by the extremely shocking scene.

"Damn it!" Nakagawa Masatomo pushed his younger brother aside, walked to the corner of the corridor, and peeked out at the field on the other side. As his younger brother had said, the ground was covered in blood. In this scorching summer heat, under the scorching sun, someone like him could easily detect the smell of blood.

It was too late to confirm what had happened, and we had to report to the leader immediately.

The phone rang again in a hurry.

"Master... this is bad. Duan Benwu and the others were all killed. They died in the dojo."

This extremely abstract report completely silenced Asahara Shoko. After a while, he said, "I say... Nakagawa, why did you choose to follow me in the first place? Do you remember?"

Nakagawa Masatomo's heart skipped a beat. Even though it was a sunny September day, he shuddered unconsciously. "It's to let my family live a good life and not be looked down upon by others."

"I know you. You're different from others because your family's situation has improved greatly. It's not for the church or me, but for your family, you can do anything, right..."

"Yes, Master." At this time, Nakagawa Masatomo was no longer afraid.

"The chief of the Chiba Police Station only told me one thing, and that was an order from above. So, there's nothing we can do."

"I will be running for the Truth Party in Congress soon. This is our church's ultimate goal, and you understand that. But the situation has already occurred and cannot be completely resolved. Therefore, we must minimize the impact."

"We need someone to step up and take responsibility for this."

"... "

The air seemed to have fallen silent. Nakagawa Masatoshi's face was gloomy, but he finally said, "I understand, Master. I will take responsibility for everything! So, please treat my family well."

On the other end of the line, Asahara Shoko glanced down at the person beneath him. The family members Masatomo Nakagawa had mentioned were now flashing their Ahegao gestures towards him. With a sinister smile, he raised his feet and stepped on the heads of the Nakagawas and their daughter. "Don't worry, this is certain!"

After hanging up the phone, Masayoshi Nakagawa's entire face was hidden in the shadows.

If someone needs to take all the blame, then the matter should be handled calmly, and the impact of public opinion should be minimized as much as possible. The best option is to open the door wide and let the police outside come in to search for the hidden items.

Finally, when facing interrogation, he admitted that he had done it without telling the leader, making a black and white distinction. The ignorant people will not understand these twists and turns, they will only believe the public opinion manipulated by the media.

In the end, he would be sentenced to death, which might not be delayed any further due to public pressure, but would be carried out immediately. Or he might be killed in prison by assassins sent by the leader.

"But..."

"Do you really think I don't know what you've done to my wife and daughter? Before, I could choose to turn a blind eye and a deaf ear just to survive, but now... it's time to drag you down with me to hell."

The current situation is not big enough. Even if he points all the fingers at Asahara Shoko during his confession, it may not attract attention. Perhaps he will be directly ignored due to the conflict of interests.

So now, he wants to do his best to make things bigger!

"Boss, what should we do next?"

"You take the rest of the people to the gate and hold the police. I'll take care of the rest myself!"

After the bread men left, Nakagawa Tomomasa went to the basement alone.

After scanning his irises, a purple crystal was revealed hidden behind the basement door. These were supposed to be the secret weapons they had planned to use to overthrow Japan if all their plans failed... one at the Minami-Aoyama headquarters, one at the Chiba branch. Now it was time to release them early.

Nakagawa Tomomasa first pulled out a tube of purple reagent and injected it into his aorta, then used his last bit of sanity to press the container release button.

The missing persons in the disappearance cases related to the Truth Church now opened their eyes, which were flashing with purple light, in the special liquid.

……

……

"Damn it! The director still didn't answer the phone?"

Outside the dojo.

The person in charge of directing the operation on the scene was the second-in-command of the Chiba Prefectural Police, the deputy chief. At this moment, the chief's phone was completely turned off. The last order given to him was to be responsible for commanding everything on the scene.

In other words... if the work is done well, it will be the director's responsibility, but if any problems arise, you will have to take the blame yourself.

The deputy minister took a deep breath and asked, "Have all the personnel been assembled?"

"All the police officers we can mobilize in Chiba have already arrived at the scene. The mobile team from Tokyo headquarters is still on the way and will take about twenty minutes to arrive."

The deputy minister nodded and quietly pulled his confidant aside: "How is it going? Have you contacted that guy Nakagawa Tomomasa?"

"No, I have been out of contact."

"Damn it..." The deputy minister narrowed his eyes. He had heard a little about the things that the Truth Church had done. Considering the high amount of filial piety fees, he let them settle all the small matters.

This time the order from above is to enter the dojo and search for Kira, but... the pretext is no longer important. Searching for Kira may just be a pretext given by the higher-ups. With the election approaching, it is not impossible to use this pretext to attack the Truth Church.

The scandal just reported on TV was the most direct trigger.

But now... Nakagawa Tomomasa stayed indoors and the door of the dojo was tightly closed. It was obvious that they were probably transferring or destroying evidence inside the dojo.

With the idea that less trouble is worse than more and more friends mean more ways, the deputy minister is obviously willing to give face to Asahara Shoko, who is far away in Minami-Aoyama. As for the evidence of crimes and the rescue of hostages... if it is done well, it will also be the credit of the director.

No rush~No rush~

He looked lost in thought. "Then let's wait for the Tokyo mobile team to arrive before we discuss our next move."
