After Hayakawa Aki finished reading the report on the suicide, Kishibe slowly explained, "Based on our analysis, I'm afraid there's a superpower behind this who's using their abilities to constantly incite people to commit suicide by jumping off buildings."

"Compared to Kira, this antisocial serial killer who wantonly kills innocent people to satisfy his perverted desires is more urgent."

"However, due to pressure from the Chief Cabinet Secretary, most of the Kyoto Group and the Anti-Magic Section 4's resources must be used to capture Kira. Therefore, cases like this can only be handled by you newcomers."

"I grant you the corresponding authority. Mobilize all available forces to apprehend the culprit responsible for this series of suicides."

Hayakawa Aki didn't ask the simple question of whether it was Kira who did it. This killing style was completely different from Kira's.

First, Kira only kills the guilty. Second, he ranks the victims by severity, from heart attack to self-immolation, but never by suicide. Kira, using the "heart attack" as the cause of death from the outset, tells the police he is a criminal with a "lynching principle."

Not every hat can be put on Kira's head.

"By the way, now that you've passed my test and joined the Kyoto team, go improve yourself."

Step on the shore and make a deal with the devil to gain your own power that surpasses humans.

"Yes." Hayakawa Aki acted a little indifferent, and didn't seem to be very excited about it.

Just as the two of them stood up and prepared to go to the basement, the door was urgently knocked open, and a subordinate hurriedly reported:

"Commander Ryuuzaki, this is terrible. Another woman has committed suicide by falling from a building at Sobu High School in Chiba's Chuo Ward."

"And the case is related to Kira!"

Volume 1: 93 Kira is me, Yukinoshita Yukino!

Bidubidu——

The shrill sound of sirens surrounded the gate of Sobu High School, and several police cars were parked at the gate.

Hayakawa Aki was the first to get out of the police car. Perhaps because the case was related to Kira, even though it was a case of a woman falling from a building, all the police officers who arrived wore metallic masks.

They wore black masks and black coats, and had pitch-black guns casually exposed at their waists. In the huge campus, there was no other noise except the rustling sound of their boots rubbing against the ground.

Sobu High School had already announced an emergency suspension of classes. In the classrooms of the teaching building, everyone, under the teacher's command, turned to face the other side of the windows. Perhaps for the sake of confidentiality, the view outside the windows became a forbidden area for the students until the Taima Public Security arrived.

But there were still a few brave ones who sneaked into the empty activity room, raised their mobile phones and pointed the cameras at the playground, recording everything happening outside.

They even started live streaming and recording in their own small groups, without realizing the consequences of being held accountable later.

The attire full of the aura of a mysterious organization attracted the attention of these young people, so much so that they temporarily ignored the corpse lying in a pool of blood.

No one cares about Onoe Nami.

Hayakawa Aki could see the corpse on the ground clearly through the one-way mask.

Because she didn't fall headfirst, Onoue Nami maintained a last bit of dignity, and her body didn't have any strange bends. Even though it looked like just a simple scratch, she was dead.

Life is so fragile, like a dandelion swaying in the wind and scattering at the slightest touch.

"what happened?"

The police officer who arrived first wiped the sweat from his forehead. For every Chiba Prefectural Police officer, this dark outfit was enough to be called a nightmare. The woman wearing this black uniform that day was the one who killed their immediate superior in public.

To this end, they also made every effort to investigate part of the matter before this group of people arrived.

"This troublesome girl is called Onoe Nami. She prepared a large number of... flyers accusing Kira on the rooftop."

"We arrived at the scene a little too late. The flyers had probably already spread among the student population."

“Where are the flyers?”

"this."

The leading police officer quickly handed over the flyer in his hand. Hayakawa Aki took a quick glance and roughly understood what was going on.

Seeking help on the Kira-related network, she was unexpectedly humiliated by online trolls... Desperate, Onoue Nami decided to use this extreme method to attract Kira's attention and punish the scumbag and the bastards who took advantage of others online...

"Sir, that's pretty much it. What should we do now? Should we have someone take the body away first? I don't think that would have a very positive impact."

Hayakawa Aki stared silently at the girl's body on the ground, the flyer she clutched tightly in her hand, which she hadn't let go of until her death. In a heartless voice, he asked, "She called the police at first, right? Why didn't you do anything about it?!"

"Ahaha..." The leading police inspector was sweating profusely. Why hadn't he accepted the case then? Well, it seemed he'd thought it was better to be meddlesome than not, and to just ignore it. Who could have imagined that this troublesome guy would choose to commit suicide?

"Because, because there was insufficient evidence in this matter, we did our best to investigate, but there really wasn't enough evidence, so..."

"Would someone risk their life to slander you?" Hayakawa Aki's eyes, hidden beneath the single-faced mask, looked as if he were looking at a corpse. "Do you like dying?"

"Don't you know Kira is watching you?"

"This... I..." The leading police inspector was completely panicked. His name was mentioned on this flyer! If this happened, Kira might really kill him in a rage!

He trembled as he crawled in front of Hayakawa Aki and stood up again. "Sir, I was confused for a moment. What should I do? What should I do?! That damn criminal Kira won't really kill me, will he? I'm just dereliction of duty at most, not a crime punishable by death!"

"What's your name?"

Hayakawa Aki turned his back to the young inspector, squatted down, and took the tightly clutched flyer from Onoue Nami's hand, which was considered to be a way for her to rest in peace. In his eyes, which no one could see, a deep red shadow appeared in Hayakawa Aki's eyes.

Kira is the bond, passed down from generation to generation.

"My name is Okita Eiji, sir, you must..."

"That's enough. Your men will have Onoue Nami restrain herself and stop making any more offensive moves."

"Yes, I understand, sir! I'll leave this matter to you!"

Hayakawa Aki stood up.

He was right, the crime was not punishable by death. But...Hayakawa Aki, now possessing this power, no longer intended to sink into hell with that corrupt code.

Now...Kira is the law.

Hayakawa Aki turned around and instructed the Kyoto Public Security Bureau, "Find the scumbag accused in this flyer."

"This... Commander Cass (code name), Lord Kishibe's order for us is to investigate the mastermind behind the fall. This case looks like a simple suicide of a young girl, so I suggest that we hand it over to the Chiba Prefectural Police."

People's hearts are so cold and indifferent——

Beneath the mask, he had a heart that had completely turned cold. Now, he only hated Kira for being too conservative and not being able to kill people earlier to change everything.

"Now I suspect that scumbag is the mastermind. Any questions?"

"...No more. But I will report this matter to Lord Anbian."

"It's up to you. Go investigate. Now, let's go interview the people this girl had contact with before her death to make sure Kira or the mastermind behind the suicide are among them."

……

……

"Hey, who died?"

"I don't know. It seems the seniors got the flyers that dropped down. I'm asking them."

"My phone was confiscated. This incident seems to have become a big deal, and the school won't let us spread the news."

"I saw someone had sent the message before my phone was confiscated. It's so tragic. Using death to attract Kira's attention. Those scumbags... The principal is also a scumbag. A classmate risked her life to attract Kira's attention, and he even wanted to block the message. Didn't that girl die in vain?"

"Oh, I hope the news can be taken seriously."

Whispering and sighing.

Young students are, after all, the foundation of a nation's conscience, a group of people with integrity, integrity, and simple emotions. If even students at this stage lose their sympathy in the face of bloody death, it will be a disaster for the entire nation and country.

Fortunately.

The world is cruel and it is hard to cool down one’s passion.

"Students down there, be quiet!"

Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was in charge of maintaining order at the scene, didn't speak out to remind them until the discussions reached a point where they could no longer be ignored.

This matter pained her deeply. After all, she was just a fragile person with too many dark things to deal with besides studying. Shizuka Hiratsuka couldn't take care of everyone. But if Onoe Nami came to her, she would do her best to help the child.

"Why...why would you choose such an extreme method?" Shizuka Hiratsuka sighed and whispered to herself.

There is so much pain in this world that no one can fathom. People's emotions don't connect. Some feel it's unnecessary, while others feel they have nowhere else to turn.

Shizuka Hiratsuka looked around and found that one of her most valued students, Yukinoshita Yukino, was exuding an aura that made even her, the teacher, feel vaguely afraid.

What kind of temperament is that?

Coldness, despair, sadness, self-blame, madness—it’s like the intersection of all kinds of negative emotions, the absolute evil in this world!

At this moment, Yukino was speechless as she stared at the whitewashed wall before her. Tears, like pearls from a broken string, silently slid down her delicate face. Her shoulders trembled slightly, as if burdened with endless anger and sorrow.

Yukinoshita Yukino pursed her lips, and she looked as fragile as a piece of breakable porcelain.

Although it was just a quick glimpse, she still saw that the girl who jumped off the building was Nami Onoe who came to her for help yesterday.

Why did things turn out like this? Yukinoshita Yukino didn't understand.

"There's no reason to commit suicide... I just didn't fly today."

If she had agreed yesterday, and let Kira's sister, or her other self, kill those scumbags directly, could she have saved her life? Wouldn't her brilliant and beautiful life have been saved from withering away in Sobu High School?

Unfortunately, there are no ifs in this world. She, Yukinoshita Yukino, was also one of the murderers who forced Onoe Nami to commit suicide!

Perhaps because she also has a sister, Yukinoshita Yukino can completely empathize with Onoe Nami's despair. This also became the last straw that broke the camel's back, hitting Yukino's back hard. She had been bent for so long, and at this moment, her waist finally broke.

Endless regret and anger filled Yukino's heart, and the shackles of memory called seals were breaking.

At that moment, the front door of the classroom was opened by Hayakawa Aki, dressed in a black uniform. The voice, processed through a voice changer, said coldly, "Yukinoshita Yukino, please come out and cooperate with our investigation."

"what's up?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka, who had lost confidence in the police, stood in front of them, gazing unkindly at the faceless monsters before her. These guys, in a sense, were more like criminals than criminals themselves. At least criminals feared the law, but these guys were so arrogant they ignored everyone.

"According to our investigation, the last person who had contact with Onoe Nami at Sobu High School yesterday was Yukinoshita Yukino. This is related to the confidential case we have been investigating."

"Please cooperate with our work."

"This……"

Shizuka Hiratsuka nodded. Since she was the last person to make contact, she should be investigated. Of course, Shizuka Hiratsuka also understood that it was probably because Onoe Nami had sought psychological counseling from Yukinoshita before committing suicide, or perhaps she had asked Yukinoshita to help deal with her sister's affairs.

What's the point of asking a student like Yukinoshita for help with something like this? This is a matter of society. But... for a girl who has been dependent on her sister since childhood and has nowhere else to go, a club like Yukinoshita might be the last straw...

"It's just that, looking at Yukinoshita's condition, I'm afraid she's had some psychological trauma."

Shizuka Hiratsuka sighed. She had seen everything that Yukinoshita Yukino had just said. You couldn't hide the murderous intent in her eyes; that look was a clear sign of wanting to kill someone in every sense of the word.

Shizuka Hiratsuka had seen this kind of eyes in the Hiratsuka group when she was young. Perhaps that was why Shizuka Hiratsuka chose to become a teacher when she grew up.

"I want to accompany her."

"can."

Hayakawa Aki immediately agreed to Hiratsuka Shizuka's request. Soon, the group arrived at the Shinto Club's activity room to begin interrogating her.

Yukinoshita Yukino unknowingly sat in the seat that once belonged to Light Yagami, her figure overlapping with his across time and space. Hayakawa Aki sat opposite Yukinoshita.

At this moment, Hayakawa Aki was in a trance. The midday sun shone on Yukinoshita Yukino, creating a backlit sheen. Bathed in the sunlight, she appeared filled with...divinity.

Although she was just a 17-year-old high school girl, she gave Hayakawa Aki an indescribable sense of majesty, a feeling that made his soul tremble slightly.

"Yukinoshita Yukino, Onoe Nami came to see you around four o'clock yesterday afternoon, right?"

"Yes."

"I've told you everything in detail. Please explain it to me in detail."

Yukinoshita Yukino's voice was cold, her expression as stiff as a robot's. Her eyes, usually full of light, were now completely dimmed, just like the light in the deepest part of her heart.

Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at Yukinoshita Yukino with a worried look on her face. This situation was really terrible.

I'll probably have to contact Yang Nai later and ask her to provide some psychological counseling for her sister. Some things can only be handled by those closest to you, and even without a trace of blood relationship, it won't work.

One person spoke, one person listened, and one person worried. The whole morning passed under Hayakawa Aki's meticulous interrogation.

Finally, Yukinoshita's cold voice suddenly asked, "Excuse me...what incident is Onoue-san involved in?"

"Due to confidentiality regulations, this matter..." Hayakawa Aki was about to refuse Yukinoshita's question, but after seeing those eyes full of negative emotions, something seemed to be touched deep in his heart, and a red light flashed in his eyes.

"In fact, Onoue-san was involved in a series of women jumping off buildings. Anti-Magic Section 4 classified this case as a crime committed by a psychic. However, based on the traces at the scene and your confession, Yukinoshita-san, we can basically rule out the possibility that Onoue Nami was involved in the serial murders."

"Just an ordinary suicide."

"above."

With that, Hayakawa Aki left the activity room and led the other Kyoto group members out of Sobu High School. On the playground, the police had also completed their cleanup efforts. However, the cordon had not yet been removed, and it was likely that it would remain so for a long time.

In the empty Shindai Club activity room, only Yukinoshita and Hiratsuka Shizuka were left.

As if to lighten the dull atmosphere, Hiratsuka Shizuka gave a couple of awkward laughs and said in a voice that was vibrant and energetic beyond her years, "Ahaha, speaking of which, that kid Yagami didn't show up for class today. That's really unusual."
