Unjust Anime, but with Death Note

But even if he has the ability to take a person's life at any time, he has to make sure that the matter is clear before he takes action. Light Yagami doesn't want to stain his hands with innocent blood, so every time he takes action, he is sure that the person deserves to die.

If it meets the criteria for execution, then Yukinoshita Haruno's knife wouldn't be a problem, but based on the information in front of us right now, it doesn't meet the criteria for execution...

In addition, there is another thing that Light Yagami cares about.

According to Yukinoshita Haruno, it has become common knowledge in their circle that Yukinoshita was targeted by the Shinrikyo Cult, so what consequences will come from acting rashly?

"Just as the enemy was about to attack the Yukinoshita family, they all died tragically at the hands of Kira. This will only lead people to speculate that there is some kind of secret connection between the Yukinoshita family and Kira."

Even the most sophisticated script cannot prevent such speculation.

"The final outcome of countless coincidences is inevitable."

"Finally, under the Public Security Bureau's investigation into the Demonic Section 4, the relevant personnel will definitely be taken away and investigated using their own methods. This will inevitably include me, and perhaps I am the most suspicious among them."

"I was near the scene when Araki Financial was executed, I was there when the bully was executed, and I was connected to the Yukinoshita family, the only one involved with Kira."

"If we investigate further through interpersonal relationships, we'll find that I'm the most out of place person in Yukinoshita Haruno's network."

"Eliminate all the impossible, and whatever remains, no matter how unbelievable, must be the truth. And in the end, I will become that glaring truth."

"It's possible that the Public Security Anti-Magic Section 4 possesses the ability to force a target to reveal the truth..."

If it was just a lie detector, or even truth serum, Light Yagami would be confident that he could pass the test from the "imaginary enemy" with his acting skills. But in this world where superpowers exist, inhuman forces are not something humans can resist.

Light Yagami, who possessed the notes, knew this very well.

"How can I carry out the execution without arousing suspicion?" Yagami Light fell into deep thought. This question had been on his mind since he first received the notes. It was only now that it was put on the agenda again.

The frequency of executions is increasing, and we should have expected that this day would come sooner or later.

After a long while, Light Yagami asked, "Is there any way to temporarily make me lose my memory of Kira and the notebook?"

"After relinquishing ownership of the Death Note, all your permissions, Death Eyes, and related memories will disappear."

"When your name is written on the Death Note, or your body comes into contact with the note again, the relevant memories will be restored."

"Note: During the period when you give up ownership, the distributed notes will still have the original authority."

Light Yagami closed his eyes and thought.

"First, divert the Public Security's attention from the Demonic Section 4. After finding out the truth about the Truth Cult, execute them. At the same time, relinquish ownership of the notebook until you pass the Public Security's inspection and regain your memory."

"But during amnesia, who can you trust?"

"If Kira stops executing the criminal during the investigation, the suspicion on me will not only not disappear, but will be magnified."

Light Yagami began to feel distressed. He usually chose his execution method on the day of execution. Although he could set the notes to work at a fixed time, if they were all pre-set, it was inevitable that people would notice the phenomenon.

"It's like paying for one's past actions."

"To choose a deputy Kira."

Light Yagami tapped away at the keyboard expressionlessly. "The target candidate needs to meet the following requirements: strong emotions or interests as a driving force, and the wisdom to adapt to changing circumstances..."

"Once you've used the notebook, if you try to leak the memories associated with it, you'll immediately lose your memory. You don't have to worry about the police investigating this."

Light Yagami reflected carefully on the people around him and realized that the only one who seemed to meet this condition was Yukinoshita Haruno. Even though they had only just met for the first day, driven by profit... and supplemented by lies and threats, he could barely trust her, acting out a dark drama.

After all, after using the notebook, the moment you want to reveal its contents, the relevant memories will be erased. You don't have to worry about police scrutiny, but this will put you right back to square one, and there's a good chance your condition will be attributed to amnesia.

The worst outcome is that the execution will be carried out according to the order of execution set by Light Yagami. The suspicion cannot be completely cleared, but there will be no risk of exposure in the end.

"It's not a solution. Of course, the Anti-Demon Section 4 might also adopt a strategy of killing the wrong person rather than letting him go, and kill anyone suspected of anything."

"However...all our plans are based on the assumption that the Public Security Anti-Magic Section 4 possesses the ability to make people reveal the truth. Before that day comes, we can slowly select Kira's agents."

"Really? You've already guessed that I'm Kira, but you still dare to come and meet me like this? Aren't you afraid that their whereabouts will be discovered during the garlic cleaning afterwards?"

"Sobu High School's surveillance footage is retained for fifteen days, and the footage of her journey before arriving at the school is retained for about a month. Hacking in and deleting it directly would arouse suspicion, and waiting for the footage to automatically delete would take too long."

"What a stupid woman. After all, they are sisters. There is no difference between them in essence."

Sometimes, Light Yagami could understand the desire of those who wanted to play all five positions by themselves. They were not afraid of god-like opponents, but they were afraid of teammates with many loopholes.

"This isn't good. We're really cornered."

Light Yagami put his hands behind his head with a relaxed expression, not showing any pressure at all.

Perhaps this was a game of chance. As long as he chose to ignore the existence of the Truth Cult and let them devour the Yukinoshita family, nothing would happen. Even if they deserved death, he could just wait until the storm died down and execute them one by one. That way, the attention he would draw would be much less.

But, Light Yagami was born a bad guy, his morbid love of seeking excitement had dominated his brain. He dared to ask the teacher's name if he thought the teacher was dull, and he dared to scare the girl into incontinence if she was interesting. But even so, he could still distinguish those disgusting evils.

Evil religious forces are no different from others. Simply executing the evil leaders cannot destroy their "spiritual community". If the fools believe in miracles, then give them a real miracle!

Now we just have to find out the truth of the matter.

Light Yagami gradually relaxed. He drew aside the curtains and looked out at the quiet street. The animals' activity seemed to have returned to normal, unlike the restlessness of three days ago.

Light Yagami silently memorized this rule in his heart: the enemy's ability to use animals as spies can only last for three days.

With nothing to do, Light Yagami opened the [Savior Kira] website and read through the comments to see if there was anything interesting happening.

The top of the homepage is:

【Nishiguchi Hideyuki attack incident】

[Nishiguchi Hideyuki died in an attack during escort]

Just like the ratings of the same movie on Bandou and Puhu in his previous life, as long as the movie involved topics about men and women, such as the last movie he watched in his previous life, "Hot and Hot", the ratings would be polarized. A similar situation also appeared on the "Savior" website.

The affirmative side argued that Nishiguchi Hideyuki was guilty of serial murder and could not escape legal punishment, and that Kira was completely trampling on the law in an unnecessary way. The negative side, however, argued that Japan's current laws were designed for people like Nishiguchi Hideyuki and had no binding force at all, leading to a fierce war of words between the two sides.

Apart from the initial frenzy of admiration, more and more people with "guilty consciences" flocked to the website, criticizing Kira with similar views to Yukinoshita Yukino and accusing Kira of atrocities. Of course, there were also Kira's fanatical fans who fought back crazily, accusing the former of being potential criminals, and petitioning in the comment section for Kira to punish these people.

The most eye-catching one among them was a guy with the ID [泷], who even said that he was a policeman and wanted to catch all the spiritual Chinese who defended Hideyuki Nishiguchi through the Internet.

Light Yagami smiled silently across the screen, ignoring their dispute, and pressed the X in the upper right corner of the screen.

"The more my enemies criticize me, the more I'm right; the more my enemies affirm me, the more I'm right beyond reproach; the more my followers criticize me, the more they've become my enemies; the more my followers affirm me, the more I'm right. Enemies, followers, and passersby all support me, which only proves I'm on the right path."

What does the outside world's chaos have to do with him? As a pure idealist, Light Yagami always adheres to the philosophy of clarity and walks on the right path.

"Allowing such a website to grow wildly without taking any action to ban it, are you trying to sting for law enforcement? There are really a lot of hooks left behind." Light Yagami muttered to himself, his ten fingers tapping on the keyboard quickly, deleting all records of his login to this website.

These outdated methods of the Metropolitan Police Department were completely within his expectations. Apart from the unpredictable superpowers, there was no challenge at all.

Ding--

At that moment, a pop-up window in the corner of the screen caught Light Yagami's attention. It was an automatic indexing program he had placed within the police department through Makima's authority. The title of the message was: [Araki Financial Company Post-Investigation Report - Detailed]

"It's finally out." Light Yagami controlled the mouse and clicked it with an expressionless face.

This day has been a long time coming.

His information came from the police, but the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's efficiency in handling cases was really hard to accept. It was not until now that they issued a detailed investigation report.

"Come on, let me see who the man behind the scenes is that you're talking about."

[Deceased: Endo Hiroshi, social relations ▆▆▆]

【…】

[According to the investigation, the person with whom she had frequent debt transactions and correspondence was: Hayakawa Kiyo]

【…】

Hayakawa Kiyo, male, 39 years old. Leader of the Chiba branch of Aum Shinrikyo...

After all, it was a wide-area designated incident, and the level of detail in the investigation report was completely different from that of an ordinary case. The report, which was as many as a hundred pages long, recorded in detail all the trading partners of Araki Financial Company since its establishment. It could be said that all the related people and things were checked out.

Light Yagami nodded slightly, and his regret about the Metropolitan Police Department's low efficiency in handling cases was greatly alleviated.

Pressured by the safety of those in power, the Metropolitan Police Department is also trying hard to find clues about Kira through social connections~ But it is obvious that such efforts are completely in the wrong direction and are in vain making wedding dresses for Light Yagami.

Among them, Hayakawa Kiyo's name is so conspicuous.

"Another member of Aum Shinrikyo?"

"In this investigation report, you're the only one who best fits the identity of the person behind the scenes, right?"

Looking at the man on the screen, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and looking like a gentleman, Light Yagami narrowed his eyes slightly. He was always so accurate in his judgment. Even though this guy looked like an elite, even through the screen, Light Yagami could still smell the stench of corruption and evil.

"Chiba branch leader? Could he be the same person Yukinoshita Haruno mentioned?"

Yagami Light redirected to Wikipedia and searched for Hayakawa Kiyo's name. It detailed the cases he had defended. Most of them involved defending powerful companies and individuals with shady backgrounds against the underdog. Therefore, he was a lawyer with a very high success rate in conservative disputes.

Let’s turn to those companies and individuals, many of whom have already joined the Truth Church and become one of its believers.

"It's getting more and more interesting~"

Given the nature of the Japanese, Light Yagami was almost certain that this guy was the real murderer who killed Tsuruta Kusuko. And behind him, and behind the Truth Cult, there was definitely more than one such tragedy.

After getting the answer, Light Yagami looked calm and didn't seem angry about it.

"Who would harbor hatred towards those weaker than themselves? Some would only be merciless when crushing an ant..."

Light Yagami silently took out a pen from his pocket, spread the Death Note flat on the table, and silently began to write for the first time after his authority was upgraded.

Volume 1: 66 Sky Eye X Kira Exposed (6K)

beep—

"Miss Makima, something bad has happened!"

Ji Ye pushed the door open in a panic, rushing into Makima's office with the files in his arms.

Makima's white and slender fingers clasped the edge of the paper cup, and she looked expressionlessly at the anxious Himeno. She seemed to be in a bad mood because she had failed to control the animals to monitor Kira the whole time.

A holy golden halo faintly appeared in the depths of his eyes, and the bewitching voice spread towards Ji Ye: "It's Ji Ye, what's the matter, tell me slowly."

The voice seemed to have some kind of magic that soothed Ji Ye's inner anxiety, and her jogging body gradually slowed down.

"At midnight this morning, three more criminals were found dead in prison."

"Ah."

Makima nodded slightly, as if she was no longer surprised by Kira's killings. She even jokingly said, "It's been so long, and Kira hasn't killed all the prisoners in the prison who are considered to be extremely evil."

"How many people are there in our Japanese prisons who deserve to die?"

Ji Ye smiled awkwardly: "It's not appropriate to joke at a time like this, Miss Makima. The main reason is that this time...an unexpected situation occurred."

"Unexpected situation?" Makima chewed over Jiye's words, a little curious: "What surprise did Kira bring us again?"

"Before they died of heart failure, several criminals wrote these words on the wall of their surveillance room with the blood of their bitten fingers..."

Ji Ye quickly opened the documents in his arms and neatly placed the photos in front of Makima. The dense blood-red text covered the entire wall, and it was hard to imagine the mental state in which these words were written.

"Or perhaps, the deceased didn't write these words themselves. Instead, Kira wrote them through their hands under his control."

Makima nodded thoughtfully, having long known that Kira and she shared the same ability. It seemed only now that Kira had evolved from simply writing "M" to being able to manipulate the dead to write such a lengthy essay.

"Kira's ability is gradually evolving..." Makima's heart grew increasingly hot, and a golden halo appeared in his eyes.

Ji Ye pointed at various places where the words were written.

"These words all seem insignificant, but when they are strung together, they become—"

Makima followed the text in the direction Ji Ye pointed and couldn't help but read out loud: "I found you... Public Security."

"September 9, 09:09, Chiba, Shinrikyo."

"Execution."

"This is a crime notice!" Ji Ye was more serious than ever before: "Kira has become so rampant, Miss Makima...what should we do?"

Machima picked up the photos, held them in her hands and examined them, muttering to herself, "How's the control group I asked you to set up, Jiye, doing now?"

"Control group?" Ji Ye was startled and quickly replied, "No, not a single one died."

"That's it~"

The so-called control group was the criminals who had committed serious crimes but had not yet been reported on TV news or entered into the police internal network and were imprisoned in the public security's own secret prison after Makima and Kira fought three days ago.

According to Kira's previous pattern, he would choose criminals to execute on the same day or the next day.

Although there is still a large degree of randomness, none of the control groups specially selected by Ji Ye died.

But what does this mean?

Ji Ye was thinking, and Makima's mouth corners were slightly raised, and she gave the answer in a gentle voice: "Although the price of Kira's ability to kill people has not been found, but... the prerequisite for killing has revealed a flaw~"

"What is it!?" Ji Ye blurted out.
