Onoue Nami suddenly raised her head and looked at Yukinoshita Yukino: "Yukinoshita-san, what should I do? What should I do?"

"My sister is dead, and I have nothing left..."

What should I do?

Such a question, with the momentum of a tidal wave, hit Yukinoshita Yukino. She almost subconsciously looked towards Light Yagami's seat, and found it empty. Only then did she realize that Light Yagami had left.

Such a commission can only be handled by her personally.

But what could be done? Yukinoshita Yukino wanted to say there was no other way. Knowing the Chiba police, even if Yagami-san used his family connections, he could only wipe out the existing videos online. But those photos already saved on phones would, once the hype died down, be spread online as gossip.

For ordinary people who have no connection with the matter, it would be a great favor to the Ye Shen family to just clean up this kind of video once, but to keep a close eye on it at all times, the police can only do so when it involves their own life safety and that of their families.

This was a human evil that no force could stop. Sex and violence, the unchangeable original sin etched into human genes, even Kira couldn't stop it. After all, individuals on the internet were just strings of false code and false numbers. If Kira could kill people across the internet, it could still help limit this kind of thing.

But now, there is no way.

But the hopeful look in Onoue Nami's eyes made Yukino unsure how to speak. She pondered for a moment, "I'm sorry, Onoue-san. Right now, the only possibility is to ask the police to remove the product links to those videos from the source."

“But it’s already been sold for dissemination…there’s nothing we can do.”

Yukinoshita Yukino suddenly felt relieved. At this moment, she realized how childish she had been. Her thinking was like playing house. She thought that changing the weak side of people's hearts would change the world. How childish!

When problems truly arise, the adult world always relies on money, power, violence, and sex to solve them. What can the power of the human heart truly change? Can Yukinoshita change the soft side of people that spread pornographic videos?

Nothing can be changed, nothing can be done. People are born into different starting lines: physical strength, brains, looks, emotions, and finally, money. It's not enough to simply categorize people as winners or losers, and only their shortcomings can be called weaknesses...

"Is there really no way out? In this world... my sister, as a victim, can't even preserve her good reputation. That scumbag did such a thing, yet he doesn't have to bear any punishment and can even enjoy the money he earned from selling my sister's reputation and live a life of luxury..."

"I wanted to go over and kill him, but he had bodyguards around him, so I couldn't do it..."

Hell is empty, the devil is on earth.

Yukinoshita Yukino hesitated to speak. She understood Onoe Nami's feelings very well. They were sisters with a deep bond. If she put herself in her shoes, she would probably never be able to get over this kind of thing if she committed suicide. She would also desperately want such a scum to face the punishment of the law.

It is impossible to restore one's reputation, but there is still a possibility that the beast in human skin will be punished.

Kira could convict people of crimes the law couldn't. He could kill people the police couldn't. And her sister, Yukinoshita Haruno, was Kira. Just tell her sister, and this matter would soon be resolved.

But could Yukino do that? She couldn't. She had always wanted to cleanse Haruno of her sins, so how could she let Haruno sink deeper and deeper into the cycle of murder? Even if she identified with Kira, Kira could be anyone, but it couldn't be her sister Haruno. Murder was not something Haruno could do.

Sometimes, Yukinoshita Yukino feels that she is selfish, but that is human nature.

"Is there really no one who can punish that scumbag?"

Yukinoshita Yukino was silent, unable to utter a word.

Let Onoue Nami's disappointment spread in the activity room.

"I understand." Onoue Nami stood up dejectedly: "Thank you, Yukinoshita-san."

"No need. After all, I can't accept this commission." After a pause, Yukinoshita continued, "But I will help you. I will help you remove those videos from the source, and then have the police responsible for the Internet sweep the videos on the market."

"Although there is no way to solve this problem from the root, but at least..."

"Onoue-san, please cheer up."

"Thank you, Yukinoshita-san, you are a good person."

Onoe Nami gave Yukinoshita Yukino a bright smile, as if she was really enlightened by Yukinoshita's words and came out of the haze.

Seeing such a smile, Yukinoshita Yukino's heart gradually settled down, and the uneasiness and guilt in her heart finally felt better.

This would be a happy ending for everyone. The older sister wouldn't have to sink deeper into the vortex of killing, and Onoue Nami would be able to move on from the loss of her loved ones and temporarily let go of her hatred for the scum.

So, be well.

Yukinoshita Yukino breathed a sigh of relief.

Onoue Nami walked out of the activity room and turned to close the door. Then she heard the voices of passersby outside the corridor: "Did you hear? Kira killed someone again."

Volume 1: 90 Why am I so skilled?!

Just two steps after Light Yagami walked out of the school gate, a Crown Toyota stopped steadily in front of him.

The person coming is from the shore.

Light Yagami opened the car door expressionlessly and sat in the passenger seat.

But after waiting for a long time, the engine was not started on the shore.

Light Yagami asked in surprise, "What's wrong, Mr. Kishibe?"

"We'll give you one final test. If you pass, we can lift the surveillance on you."

"Hmm?" Yagami Light was startled. He was about to tell Kishibe about keeping an eye on Hayakawa Aki, but after being interrupted by him, he suppressed the thought. Curious, he asked, "Do they have a new Kira suspect?"

"No, until now you are still Kira's number one suspect. Although you are number one, the possibility is getting closer to zero."

"It's really stressful for me to keep staring at a high school student like you."

Kishibe spoke bluntly, having just seen the expression on Light Yagami's face after he saw the love letter through the surveillance footage. At this point, Kishibe's heart was completely broken. He couldn't see anything wrong with Light Yagami's expression through the surveillance footage.

It really is just an ordinary love letter, not some secret message...

However, such a conclusion can only be made after seeing Light Yagami with one's own eyes.

The empty eyes on the shore stared at Light Yagami: "This is the last time I ask you this, Light Yagami, are you Kira?"

"No."

Light Yagami's answer was as straightforward as ever, his eyes were clear, without any trace of disguise.

The two of them stared at each other in the car for a full five seconds, and finally, Anbian was the first to give in. He sat back in his seat and opened the door for Yagami Light.

"This is?"

"You can go now. Since you are not Kira anymore and are no longer a target of surveillance, there is no need for me to be responsible for picking you up and dropping you off every day." Anbian waved his hand. After Light Yagami lost his necessity as Kira, he was too lazy to even do the social interaction of picking you up and dropping you off.

Maybe he and Makima didn't get along well.

"...Mr. Kishibe, you really are."

Light Yagami complained a few words, half of his body leaned out of the car door, and after thinking for a while, he left a clue: "Mr. Kishibe, if I were you, I would pay attention to Hayakawa Aki."

"Huh? What?"

Kishibe gripped the steering wheel tightly, his dead facial nerves preventing him from expressing anything, but something strange was brewing inside him. Hayakawa Aki had just passed his assessment and joined the Kyoto team before he arrived.

He has a clean background, tried to save Kurosawa Kusakata, stopped Kurosawa Kusakata from leaking information, which angered Kira and he stood on the opposite side of Kira. He has a strong sense of justice and outstanding abilities, and even passed his lie detector test... It is impossible for Kira to exist.

How did Light Yagami know about this? Was there a traitor within the Kyoto Group? Impossible. Everyone had to pass his assessment before joining, and their identity information files were all hidden. There was no way Light Yagami could have contacted them.

"Just now at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's joint press conference on Kira, Kira killed someone. Hayakawa Aki's actions were a bit... excessive. It was like he was deliberately trying to attract someone's attention."

"And given his status, he shouldn't be in such an occasion."

"Of course, the above is just my guess. Perhaps Officer Hayakawa is just such a passionate person."

The shore was silent.

I didn't expect that Light Yagami could analyze such a long passage of content based on those fragmentary images. If Kira were such a person... it would be a despairing reality.

He lit a cigarette for himself on the shore and blew out a puff of smoke with a hint of melancholy: "I have my own judgment on matters like this. Never think you are smart. Don't rely on luck, don't try."

"What follows is an internal matter of our public security department. Now that we have lifted the surveillance on you, it is better for you to pay less attention to these matters and not get involved in Kira's vortex again."

"This time, I can guarantee in front of the Chief Cabinet Secretary that you are not Kira. But if Kira kills someone next time and you 'happen' to be involved, whether you will be wrongly killed is not something I can judge."

"Thank you for reminding."

Yagami Light got out of the car and closed the door. Anbian no longer hesitated, stepped on the accelerator, and quickly disappeared from Yagami Light's sight.

"Shore... he's a good policeman, isn't he?"

"But is it possible to stop paying attention to Kira?"

Light Yagami, carrying his satchel, walked alone on the path home. As he crossed the traffic light, the clarity in his eyes faded once again as he fell into deep thought, replaced by a look that could only be described as cold-blooded.

As I walked along the street, I could vaguely hear the announcement coming from the television in the window: [Next news item. After noon today, a serial ghoul struck again in Chiba's Hanamigawa district. Witnesses reported that the killer was wearing a red jacket and had short, neutral hair. Citizens are requested to...]

Yes, the ghoul—

Light Yagami could still remember the tacit understanding between him and Ryougi Shiki at the beginning, monitoring each other in the quiet grove. But until that day, Ryougi Shiki said that the "surveillance game" would stop before Kira was captured.

Now, the ghoul has struck again. And once again, witnesses have spotted a suspect wearing the same outfit as Ryougi Shiki... Is it Ryougi Shiki, or someone imitating her? Whichever the case, Light Yagami will find out, catch the culprit, and clear Ryougi's name.

"Same thing, day after day. It's so...boring. The world is rotting."

Suddenly, the movement in the alley at the corner ahead caught Light Yagami's attention.

It's called an alley, but it's actually like being under a bridge. Such places are prone to crime. Drug addicts gathering, or gangs engaging in illegal transactions... these things are common.

But looking at the high cordon, flashing neon lights and onlookers, I'm afraid something serious must have happened.

Light Yagami put one hand in his pocket and walked outside the cordon.

With his height advantage, Light Yagami was able to see the tragic situation inside through the three layers of crowd inside and outside.

Blood splattered everywhere, and two severed hands could be vaguely seen on the ground. These hands were covered in dense tattoos, a picture of a dragon and a tiger. Tattoos don't necessarily make people bad, but bad people who roam the streets definitely do.

With just one glance, Light Yagami had some guesses about the identity of the deceased.

The severed hand seemed to have been torn apart by a force too great for a human to withstand, twisting 360 degrees. The horrific scene was difficult to describe.

Police officers, wearing masks and gloves, suppressed their nausea as they picked up the scattered severed limbs and put them into body bags one by one.

"Hey, what's going on? Is there another perverted murderer in Chiba?"

"I don't know. I came here early, and when I saw it, it was already like this. The ground was covered with minced meat and blood. It was just... ugh..."

"But looking at that yellow hair, I'm afraid the dead guy was some street thug."

“Good death—!”

It was a common sight, a bloodbath. Light Yagami withdrew his gaze, not intending to meddle in other matters. As he walked, he felt his mind grow increasingly dizzy. Finally, he boarded the train home. When he opened his eyes again, he had already arrived at the bus stop near his home.

When they got home, Makima had already prepared a sumptuous dinner to welcome Light Yagami.

As if he noticed something strange in Light Yagami's expression, he said, "Light-kun, are you feeling unwell?"

"Yes, I think I have a cold."

"Do you want Miss Liang Yi to kill your cold?"

"Forget about it." Yagami Light shook his head. They each had their own lives. What kind of a deal was it for Ryougi Shiki to rush to her house just because of a cold? Besides, Ryougi Shiki had told her about the workings of the Mystic Eye. This kind of fever or cold probably wouldn't kill her.

A curious point... When did Makima-san learn of Ryougi's abilities? Was it during the rescue operation that day? Light Yagami's memory was hazy; he couldn't recall how he escaped after being kidnapped. But it seemed likely that Makima-san and Ryougi Shiki arrived at the scene together, and Ryougi displayed her abilities in front of Makima-san.

"Well... Yue-kun, go and rest after dinner. Get some rest tonight, and we'll see how things go tomorrow morning and decide whether or not to go to school."

Makima looked hesitant, as if she was wondering whether to use her ability to control Light Yagami and force the healing cells in her body to take effect.

But after thinking it over, Makima decided to give up on this idea. The human body is a delicate instrument, and not everyone has her immortality. Rashly activating the body's healing ability could lead to worse consequences.

Makima, for once, didn't physically harass Light Yagami anymore, nor did she feed him like a pet dog. After Light Yagami finished his dinner, she let him go.

Light Yagami returned to his room and locked the door as if by muscle memory. Even he himself didn't understand why he did that. It was as if he had some hidden secret that he was afraid of being discovered by Miss Makima.

As soon as I lay back on the bed, my phone screen lit up.

It was a call from Ryougi Shiki.

"What could be the reason for calling me at this hour?"

Speaking of which, ever since leaving the hospital that day to say goodbye to Ryougi Shiki, the two of them hadn't been in touch much. It wasn't because their feelings had faded, but rather... Ryougi Shiki seemed to have received a new commission, and her reaction when she left that day was clearly that.

Yagami Light answered the phone: "Hello, Liangyi, what do you want to talk to me about so late?"

"Sorry to disturb your rest, Yashin." Ryougi Shiki's tone was a little anxious. "I have a commission and I'd like to ask for your help in investigating it."

"what's up?"

"Do you know about the case that happened near Sobu High School?"

Near Sobu High School?

As Ryougi Shiki spoke, Light Yagami suddenly remembered the tragic scene he saw in the alley when he passed by.

"I see, Liangyi, the person you are pursuing is..."

"The criminal who committed this crime is the one I've been tracking down these past few days. I'd like to ask Ye Shen to help investigate the murderer's whereabouts. We can't let him continue killing people like this."

"Any clues?"

"No, every time he committed a crime, he would deliberately avoid the surveillance cameras. If he couldn't avoid them, he would destroy the surveillance cameras. As for the Chiba Prefectural Police... Yagami, you know them. Also, there was no hair left at the scene. I suspect that he is also a psychic..."
