dong dong dong——!

The dense pounding, like the five-speed liberation drum, seemed to stir everyone's heartbeats. At this moment, a certain resonance was achieved.

Hayakawa Aki and his men parked their Crown Toyota on the other side of the street. They sat in their cars, staring at the throng of people. The man said anxiously, "It's Kira. Kira saw the online information and is killing people in public... Should we stop him?"

Under the mask, Hayakawa Aki's expression seemed confused.

But he quickly responded to his men: "No, didn't you hear Kira using them to pass information to the outside world? If you stop him from executing someone, you might actually get killed."

"Our faces and names haven't been revealed, Cas..."

"I advise you not to take such a risk."

Hayakawa Aki pulled back his subordinate's hand as he tried to open the car door. Since his intuition was wrong, and since Kira was still carrying out the execution, he would become a thorn in the side of the Anti-Demon Public Security, doing everything in his power to prevent the Public Security from investigating Kira and obstructing him.

Which...includes Kira's execution.

"...Kira, is he manipulating these two guys to kowtow to him? He wants to be deified in people's hearts?" The subordinate finally gave up the urge to stop him and sat in the car with Hayakawa Aki to observe this strange scene.

"Do not."

Hayakawa Aki shook his head firmly. Although he had never met Kira, the brief conversation with Kira that night, combined with his execution style... Kira was making these two guys kowtow and apologize in the direction where the Onoe Nami sisters died.

Kira, in his own way, made the sinner pay the price of his life to comfort the souls of the Onoue sisters in heaven.

How gentle.

This action once again strengthened Hayakawa Aki's determination to follow Kira and act as a traitor in the Anti-Magic Public Security Force.

among the crowd.

The internet celebrity happened to be there too, and he couldn't help but ask, "Are they... in Baikila?"

There were many people who thought this way, using their lives to appease Kira's wrath and to apologize to Kira. In this situation, just thinking about the bad things they had done in their daily lives made them feel weak in the knees.

Suddenly, as if realizing something, the internet celebrity shouted to the crowd, "Kira said that anyone who tries to stop us will be killed. This means Kira is watching all of us!"

"Lord Kira can see everything about us and wants us to cleanse the sins in our hearts!"

"Here, right now, everyone! Let's kneel down before Lord Kira and cleanse the sins in our hearts—"

"Let's pledge our loyalty to Lord Kira!"

After shouting hysterically, the internet celebrity handed the gimbal selfie stick to his assistant. Like a loach, he pushed his way through the wall of people in front of him and reached the front of the crowd. At the nightclub's door, he turned and showed his face to everyone.

Then, imitating the execution of Masaki Yoshitoki and Okita Hideyoshi, he knelt on the ground with his knees limp, and kowtowed repeatedly in Chiba's direction, kowtowed like pounding garlic. But it was obvious that he was not sincere, and the strength of his kneeling and kowtowing was just a ritual, nothing compared to the suicidal movements of the other two.

To be more precise, he was doing the earth-stepping pose. He knelt on the ground with his knees together, his head held high and his chest lifted. He placed his hands on his thighs, assuming the posture of sitting upright. Then, he placed his hands in front of him in a square pose, leaning forward and lifting his upper body until his forehead touched the ground. He performed this movement smoothly, likely because he had mentally simulated the salute to Kira countless times.

But he achieved his goal. This pious pilgrim look attracted many people to imitate him. Several young people behind him, dressed in fancy clothes, stepped forward from the crowd and came behind the internet celebrity, imitating the action of getting up from the ground and getting down from the seat.

Like a virus spreading, with the dense flow of people, more and more people came forward to follow suit.

Some people have hidden ulterior motives and seek comfort through this. Some genuinely revere Kira and want to express their admiration. And some, unassuming as they are, simply want to follow the trend, asking their friends to film their "pilgrimage" and then posting it on platforms like Xiaochishu to attract attention...

This mentality of following the trend is probably just like the word "citywalk" in Xiaohongshu, which makes people speechless when they hear it.

"These people are crazy." Hayakawa Akimoto, sitting in his car, looked at the absurd scene and cursed, "Kneeling and bowing before a criminal, am I crazy or is this world crazy?"

In modern times, the phrase "地下座" (Doxiaza) is generally used to express the deepest apology or sincere request. Now, the very people whom the police have always tried their best to protect are actually bowing down to their biggest enemy.

Crazy, completely crazy.

The world had finally become insane to a degree beyond his imagination.

……

……

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at the internet celebrity who took the lead in getting off the seat with an indifferent expression, without a trace of fluctuation in her eyes. There is a saying that goes - the better the cooking, the better.

Yukinoshita Yukino doesn't care whether these guys with exaggerated actions want to repent from the bottom of their hearts or want to use Kira's traffic to become traffic monsters on the Internet.

She only glanced at them before refocusing her attention on the two men who were kowtowed in apology. She gave the number: ninety-nine. At the ninety-ninth kowtow, the lives of these two would end.

She is more concerned about this.

This was, in fact, Yukinoshita Yukino's first true murder. Without being bewitched by Light Yagami, she'd used her emotions to wipe someone from every dimension. Unlike the last time, this time, she could clearly feel every beat of her heart... powerful and forceful. Every cell in her body trembled with the urge to execute the criminal.

The reason humans kill other humans is simple. When hatred for another exceeds one's tolerance, it becomes a reason for murder.

The word "人" is often interpreted as people supporting each other, but when written it is one-sided. Since their choice is to devour each other one-sidedly rather than support each other, Yukinoshita Yukino can devour them without hesitation.

Human growth is such an unavoidable thing. Only after suffering trauma, being degraded, and being insulted can one grow up for the first time. Yukinoshita Yukino has now completed her transformation into a grown-up.

Even though it was the first time he had truly taken someone's life, he didn't feel the slightest bit of discomfort. Perhaps for someone like Yukinoshita Yukino, once the cognitive transformation was complete, such a pure person, once darkened, could become darker than anyone else.

The will of darkness.

The one who is born evil is not Light Yagami, but Yukinoshita Yukino!

"Helping each other, achieving success together, and being happy together are just ideals. In reality, when someone is happy, someone else is left behind. When someone shines, someone else must be mired in mud... When someone breeds evil, someone else will inevitably turn into darkness."

Bang-!

In the scene, the two men slammed their heads against the ground with all their might one last time, then lost all movement. Their bodies, like statues, stood motionless, letting the blood flow from their brows down the stairs. A gentle breeze rustled their clothes, rustling them as if carrying their souls to hell.

They just... died.

He died in the middle of the crowd, but the magical thing was that the group of people sitting at the bottom of the crowd were not afraid of the corpses next to them, and they kept paying their respects to Kira.

Outside the crowd, the sounds of ambulances and sirens could be heard in the distance.

Whether it's a show or sincere, with the supervision of this group of extreme Kira believers, I'm afraid that the body organs and all the property of Masaki Yoshitoki and Okita Hideyoshi will be put to good use.

Full of sins in life, full of treasures after death...

Yukinoshita turned off the screen, and the contents she wrote on the notebook drifted away with the wind along with their lives, as if no words had ever appeared on the notebook, as if the two of them had never been in this world.

On the empty notebook, only the lonely name "Yagami Light" was left.

"Now, we are really accomplices whose destinies are entangled with each other and cannot be separated." Yukinoshita Yukino stretched out her hand and touched Light Yagami's name again.

This was the opportunity she had longed for but could not get at the beginning, the best chance to expose Light Yagami. Now Light Yagami was as fragile as a newborn baby, and the notebook was defenselessly grasped by Yukinoshita Yukino.

As long as Yukinoshita Yukino has an idea, sends this note to the Metropolitan Police Department, to the Anti-Magic Public Security Bureau, and then writes down a random name to verify its effectiveness... then, Light Yagami, who has a name written on him but is not dead, can almost be defined as Kira and arrested.

The obstacles that had plagued the Japanese police were overcome and arrested. Kira, who had committed the most heinous crime in Japanese history, would die under the judgment of the law. Forget about the juvenile protection law, Soichiro's political legacy, or the will of the people... These were no obstacles to the Cabinet and the dignitaries in the Diet.

Once Kira is captured and all the information is extracted from him, he will definitely be executed in secret.

Oh, not necessarily. It's also possible that after Kira is squeezed dry, he'll be handed over to their boss, treated with respect as a token of loyalty. While Kira's current actions suggest he's only targeting criminals and corrupt police operating in Japan, who knows... what will happen in the future?

At least for now, the Japanese bigwigs in Okinawa have shown great interest in Kira. Perhaps they have already secretly sent FBI agents to Japan to secretly investigate Kira's whereabouts.

In short, in this situation, if Yukinoshita Yukino wants Light Yagami to die, perhaps she only needs to move a nerve in her brain, and a thought will send Light Yagami to hell.

But, these are things that the old Yukinoshita Yukino would do. The current Yukino is no longer the cowardly and childish girl she once was.

"Everything is about working towards the right future..."

Light Yagami is right, severe punishments should be used in troubled times.

"As long as those who seek justice have a place to stay, they don't have to turn into stars and face a tragic end of burning up."

"If justice were served, there would be no Kira."

Yukinoshita Yukino closed her eyes, her will was incredibly firm. Wait until this day comes, just wait until this day comes, when justice can truly be served, Kira will disappear.

This justice is not about following the correct laws, but about justice that conforms to the simple values ​​of good and evil of ordinary people.

Even if Yukinoshita Yukino hadn't asked Light Yagami about this, they both shared the same sentiment. Just look at Shiratsuki's reaction. Deep down, they both shared the same desire: a peaceful life, untroubled, blending into time, existing as the average of the masses, quietly breathing their own air. A simple, uneventful life, enjoying the kind of youthful romance that only appears in light novels...

The laws of the world's development don't change with human subjective consciousness, but that's the law for ordinary people. For those who possess the Death Note, it's possible to change everything. In other words, the world moves according to one's will!

Yukinoshita Yukino didn't want her future to end in a tragic fire. She didn't want to become an idealist helpless in the face of a cruel and dark reality after losing her notebook.

To do this, she needs Light Yagami's power.

"Lend me your power, Night God!"

Yes, borrowing the power of the Death Note, this is Yukinoshita Yukino's plan. Perhaps for a long time to come, she will not write Light Yagami's name in the notebook again.

This is called "occupying the magpie's nest." Let Light Yagami wallow in dreams, and let the past Black Moon, drowning in pain and anger, be forever sealed within Light Yagami's body. When he opens his eyes again, the world will have become what he desired. This is the gift Yukino Yukinoshita gave Kira as a token of gratitude for "borrowing the notebook."

Or, Tian Gang would repeat on Light Yagami what Light Yagami had done to her.

"Yagami, he really wanted to catch Kira to prove his innocence. I remember his eyes and kept them in my heart." A faint curve appeared at the corner of Yukinoshita Yukino's mouth.

How long had it been since she last laughed? It had been so long. Ever since she moved out of her home, it seemed she hadn't laughed so sincerely again...right?

She secretly encouraged Light Yagami to capture Kira, and inadvertently revealed clues to Light Yagami. When Light Yagami was about to get the answer she pointed out, after establishing a deep and inseparable friendship with Light Yagami, she revealed to Light Yagami that she was Kira -!

“Uh hehehe——!”

Flowering, bearing fruit, and finally blooming. The seed of injustice that Light Yagami had planted in Yukinoshita Yukino's mind from the very beginning has now grown into a towering tree.

This is called reaping the fruits of one's own actions.

Yukinoshita Yukino looked out the window leisurely, already looking forward to tomorrow.

She's completely broken.

Volume 1: 96 Yukino: I am God

Light Yagami opened his eyes drowsily.

I sniffed and felt that the humidity in the air was too high. A wet, sweet vapor seemed to permeate the air and could not dissipate.

When he opened the curtains and saw it was drizzling outside, Yagami Light didn't think much of it, just thinking it was just the wetness that led to the wetness later.

After a quick wash, he ate the breakfast Makima had prepared, glanced at the heartwarming note she had left, and smiled knowingly. He then pulled out his phone and began browsing the news from Japan yesterday.

For a real-time game like Earth Online, even a one-day hiatus could have a significant impact.

Before Light Yagami could even begin scrolling, his finger stopped. The top trending topic was the news of Kira's murder.

In the video, two men repeatedly kneel and kowtow in one direction until their heads bleed and they become motionless. Compared to Kira's previous methods of forcing people to self-immolate, this is undoubtedly much milder.

What confused and shocked Light Yagami was that the two men executed by Kira kowtowed to death, which was fine. But what about those crazy people at the bottom of the stairs? The leader, in particular, looked vaguely familiar, but the image quality was so blurry that Light Yagami couldn't place him for a moment.

Light Yagami's expression gradually became confused.

If he were Kira... I'm afraid he would have been executed by self-immolation. No, depending on the severity of the crime, there might be some adjustments, but it probably wouldn't be a mild death like kowtow.

Kira seemed like a completely different person, becoming... somewhat compassionate.

"Kira, you've become a different person!"

When this idea came out, even Light Yagami was shocked. What a bold guess, Kira had been replaced.

From Light Yagami's perspective, Kira had previously been more like a cold-blooded executioner, a butcher with no mercy in his heart. But ever since Kurosawa Kusakata was manipulated into donating his organs... Kira seemed to have changed. Until yesterday, this Kira was a completely different person.

"Donate all the money and usable organs... Will Kira care about this?" Light Yagami murmured.

It was a truly momentous discovery, but somehow, Light Yagami felt relieved. At least when facing this Kira, he no longer felt the nervousness of suspecting he was Kira.

Kira is Kira, and he, Light Yagami, is Light Yagami! Now, he can track down Kira without any psychological pressure or burden.

The shore told him not to get involved in Kira's affairs anymore, as doing so would bring misfortune.

But Light Yagami doesn't think so. He may not arrest Kira, but he must know who Kira is. This is the desire for exploration engraved in his bones. Whether he has amnesia or not, he will take the initiative in such matters into his own hands.

Besides, it was also to make things easier for Miss Makima. The Metropolitan Police Department's joint investigation team into Kira didn't disband simply because Kira killed Kurosawa Kusakata. Instead, to save face, they intensified their publicity and investigation efforts, vowing to bring Kira to justice. And so, Miss Makima was called away early.

Kira's existence has seriously affected Miss Makima's daily life. Even for this reason, Light Yagami must find Kira.

But no matter how hard he tried to find it, he had to do it under the premise of ensuring his own safety. He didn't want to become a hot-blooded fool.

So now the question is, where should I start? Yagami Light thought he knew Kira very well, but he had to admit that he had no idea where to start.

If you put yourself in the shoes of the person on the shore, you might also think that you, the special case among countless coincidences, are Kira, but you know that you are not. If you are not Kira, then who else could Kira be?

All the clues were cut off.

In the era of information explosion, Kira has too many channels to obtain information. But Yagami Light still firmly believes in one thing: in order to ensure the correctness of the trial, Kira will definitely implant his own power into the Metropolitan Police Department or the Public Security Bureau.

Or, like me, use network technology to obtain detailed reports of the case from remote intrusion.

"Speaking of remote hacking, the possibility that I'm Kira has increased..."

"Well, now that things have come to this, let's go to school first."

Light Yagami picked up his backpack and walked out the door.

He was very concerned about Hayakawa Aki, who was doing unusual things in unusual places. If he were An Ran, he would monitor him 24 hours a day without blind spots and treat Hayakawa Aki like a spy.
