The outcome was that he was buried under the collapsed building and died a glorious death.

No, failing to rescue even one hostage cannot be considered glorious.

Members of the Metropolitan Police Department represent the law, but they are also human beings.

Since we are human, we are subject to emotions and cannot maintain absolute rationality.

In the end, it was Soichiro Yagami, the head of the Criminal Investigation Bureau, who took a deep breath and gave the final verdict.

"Whoever 'Mask' is, having such incomprehensible abilities is a security risk that must be addressed."

"As defenders of the law, our Metropolitan Police Department cannot only pursue justice in the outcome while turning a blind eye to the injustice in the process."

"Only power under control and supervision can provide the greatest guarantee for law and justice."

"As for requesting that person's support... don't worry about it for now. Continue the investigation and don't miss any clues."

"Of course, while investigating the identity of 'Masked', we must not forget that reducing the crime rate in Kyoto and protecting the personal safety of citizens is our Metropolitan Police Department's top priority."

"That's it, let's break up the meeting."

........

the other side.

On the way home, Rio Futaba suddenly stopped, and a rare look of panic appeared on her usually calm and composed face.

"Night, night stars, I feel like someone is watching me again."

Upon hearing this, Ye Xing kept her gaze fixed on what was in front of the two of them.

In Rio Futaba's eyes, there was an empty space in front of her, with nothing there.

In Ye Xing's eyes, there stood a girl who could be described as beautiful.

Mai Sakurajima glanced at Rio Futaba, who seemed a little nervous, then turned her gaze to Yohoshi, who was staring directly at her, and said softly.

"You...you can see me after all."

062 Senior Mai Sakurajima and Rio Futaba's Truth Deduction

"Hey, can we change our opening line?"

Ye Xing couldn't help but make a comment.

Mai-senpai, you have no idea how creepy your opening line was.

Thankfully, Yotsuya Miko wasn't here this time, otherwise she would have developed PTSD from the shock.

"Who are you talking to?"

Rio Futaba's eyes showed confusion and bewilderment.

There's no one in front of me!

Could it be that...

Has Ye Xing's chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) gotten so bad that it's causing hallucinations?

"Can't you see?"

Upon hearing this question, Rio Futaba involuntarily took two steps back, glanced around, and timidly asked.

"You...you're not trying to scare me, there's no one around here."

"You are quite capable."

Night Star's praise was truly heartfelt.

Goodness, Rio Futaba is no ordinary person either.

Even though he couldn't see Mai Sakurajima, he could still feel her gaze.

what is this?

Spider-Sense?

No, there's something I need to confirm.

Thinking of this, Yoruhoshi asked Futaba Rio.

"Sakurajima Mai, have you heard of her? She's the second-year student at our school, the former national idol, Sakurajima Mai-senpai?"

"Sakurajima...Mai?"

Rio Futaba muttered these words, a look of bewilderment in her eyes.

"Have not heard."

Ye Xing thought to herself, "As expected."

The description of Mai Sakurajima's symptoms as simply "not being able to see" doesn't quite fit the actual situation.

The correct description should be:

She disappeared from everyone's "knowledge".

Not only is its own existence unobservable, but even the memories stored in people's minds are erased.

Of course, this is not Yoru's analysis, but the analysis given by Futaba Rio in the original story. He just copied the answer verbatim.

Then the problem is coming.

Now how to do?

"Goo~~~"

The soft rumble of Sakurajima Mai's stomach broke the silence.

As a senior who considered herself a mature adult, she demonstrated extraordinary abilities at this time.

Faced with such an awkward situation, Mai Sakurajima only blushed slightly, then coughed twice and said in a calm tone.

"I'm hungry."

Ye Xing thought to herself, "You really can hold your nerve."

Code name: The One with the Ability to Bound.

"Then let's eat first."

Yoru looked at Rio Futaba and said confidently.

"It's decided, I'll come to your house for a meal."

"Huh? You're at my house?"

Rio Futaba paused for a moment, then hesitated slightly.

"But...my family situation is a bit special. My parents aren't home, and I live alone..."

"If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have gone. Let's go, let's go."

.......

Twenty minutes later.

"Your house is really big."

Hearing Yoru's sigh, Futaba Rio sighed softly and said noncommittally.

"well enough."

Her parents were both very accomplished people.

Needless to say, Rio Futaba has never worried about money when it comes to her family's financial situation.

But her problems could never be solved with money.

"Please make yourself at home."

Sakurajima Mai seemed a little embarrassed. She took off her shoes, and her feet, clad in black stockings, touched the wooden floor as she politely said something.

"It's my first visit, I apologize for disturbing you."

Ye Xing pursed her lips and sat down on the sofa, seemingly unconcerned.

Even if you talk to her, she won't hear you.

Mai Sakurajima was taken aback by what she heard, and thought that made sense, so she spoke softly.

"Then please pass on my message, thank you."

"Hey, Futaba."

"Well, what happened?"

"Sakurajima Mai said, 'This is my first time visiting your home, I apologize for disturbing you.'"

Rio Futaba sighed, rubbed her forehead, took out two boxes of instant noodles from the cabinet, and started boiling water, saying helplessly.

"So... who exactly is Sakurajima Mai? Please stop talking nonsense."

Rio Futaba's voice was very steady, and her expression looked very calm.

But in reality, her heart was pounding in her throat.

What to do? What to do? What to do?

Why did it turn out this way?

This is the first time someone my age has come to my house to play.

And he's a boy!

calm down.

Calm down, you're Rio Futaba!

Just interact with Ye Xing normally, as you would normally do.

The situation in this apartment right now is quite complicated.

It looks like there are two people, but there are actually three.

There are two people in Rio Futaba's life.
