Jujutsu Kaisen: My spells have no limit

Nighttime, Shinjuku Ward, Kabukicho 1-chome, Tokyo metropolitan area.

This area is home to a large number of bars, clubs, cinemas, and love hotels.

This is a place for young urban men and women and yakuza members.

Lin Yi stood on the roof of a mixed-use commercial and residential building, wearing tactical goggles, looking down at the scenery inside another mixed-use commercial and residential building dozens of meters away—a bathhouse.

Several scantily clad, shapely women were laughing and joking as they walked through the passageway, their playful antics providing Lin Yi with a feast for the eyes.

Lin Yi was also muttering to himself.

"As expected of Tokyo, the quality is really good. Hmm, the woman in the black dress has a bit of a fuller figure, but she's my type."

At that moment, Lin Yi also heard a sound.

"Hello, Mr. Hayashi Ichiro, are you listening?"

"As a private investigator, you should be doing your job for me, your client!"

The sudden increase in volume interrupted Lin Yi's enjoyment of the scenery, causing him to sigh.

"Let me reiterate, Mr. Hiromi Nichiro, just call me Lin Yi, there's no need to be so formal."

"I don't recall having any relationship with you that close, Mr. Hayashi Ichiro. Focus on doing the job I've entrusted to you."

"Yes, yes, yes."

Lin Yi responded to the client's words through the earpiece, shifting his gaze from the bathhouse to a mixed-use commercial and residential building not far away. In the cool-toned lighting, several men with dyed hair and large tattoos were crammed into a room, seemingly discussing something.

"Mr. Nichisha, let me double-check. As long as they can't appear in court tomorrow, that's fine, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Hayashi Ichiro, as long as they don't have to appear in court tomorrow, I don't want to wait too long."

"Don't worry, it won't take up too much of your time."

Lin Yi hung up the communication, estimated the distance between himself and the surveillance building, and slowly stepped back, leaving himself a running track to jump.

Taking a deep breath, he began to adjust the surging magical power within his body. The tactical goggles that had been on Lin Yi's face vanished the moment he mobilized his magical power, revealing a roguish and handsome face.

He has sword-like eyebrows, deep-set eyes with a hint of frivolity yet seriousness, a high nose bridge, a playful smile on his lips, short dark brown hair with a slightly tousled top, and is about 185cm tall with a robust physique.

She wore a khaki trench coat over a red crew-neck T-shirt, paired with black slim-fit trousers and black leather ankle boots.

Lin Yi rolled up the sleeves of his trench coat, revealing his well-defined forearms, bent his body slightly, took a running start, and jumped!

With his body enhanced by the spell, Lin Yi leaped off the roof and easily crossed the distance between floors without needing any tools. In just a few jumps, he arrived at the floor of the target building.

The glass window shattered instantly.

A flying kick that burst through the window struck a yakuza member in the chin, sending him flying. He bounced off the wall and landed unconscious.

"Oh dear, are you alright?"

Lin Yi brushed off the remaining shards of glass from his body, looked at the man he had knocked unconscious with a flying kick, and uttered words of insincere concern before turning his gaze to the others in the room. His eyes locked onto the man sitting in the crowd with his hands under the table—this was his target.

"Who do you think you are?!"

Lin Yi's entrance made the gangsters in the room hesitant to make any rash moves, and they could only loudly question his background.

Lin Yi did not answer the question, but instead gave a malicious smile.

The next second, Lin Yi moved.

His superhuman speed and strength made him move like a phantom. He didn't need any fighting skills; he simply used his speed and strength to easily crush the yakuza members in the room.

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"

Six quick, brief gunshots rang out. The man looked at Lin Yi standing in front of him with terror in his eyes, the small revolver in his hand making the sound of the bullets being emptied.

Lin Yi stood still, released his raised left hand, and the six deformed bullets fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

"Who the hell are you?!"

"As you can see, I am a sorcerer."

-----------------

Half an hour later.

Several police cars that received the emergency call gathered downstairs in the mixed-use commercial and residential building. Inside the room where the police tape had been put up, Kiyotaka Ijichi, the assistant superintendent of Tokyo Jujutsu High School, entered the crime scene with a bitter and resentful expression.

Seeing the signs of a fight at the scene, he then made the phone call.

"Yes, I am Kiyotaka Ijichi. According to the victim's description, the attacker was a tall man who claimed to be a sorcerer. We confirmed the presence of faint traces of magic at the scene. We have confirmed that there are no sorcerers operating in Kabukicho Ichiban-gai. He was an unregistered sorcerer. Target? Hmm, we need to follow up on the suspect. We are unsure whether he is a sorcerer or a curse master."

Yes, I will continue the investigation, please don't worry.

On the other side, Lin Yi stood next to his client, Che Kuanjian, watching as the yakuza members he had brutally beaten were put into an ambulance and driven away. Only then did he say, "Now you can rest assured, right, lawyer? I really did my best to complete your case."

Hiromi Nichiro, dressed in a black suit, ignored Lin Yi's question and turned to leave as he watched the ambulance's taillights disappear into the distance.

"I will transfer the final payment to your account before noon tomorrow, Mr. Lin Yilang. I hope we will never meet again."

Seeing the other party's unapproachable attitude, Lin Yi ran forward and put his arm around Ri Che Kuanjian's shoulder.

"Hey, lawyer, don't be so cold. Lawyers like you who uphold justice are rare breeds in the legal profession. I think we can work together. You provide the targets, and I'll handle the execution. I can help you get justice and I'll get paid. You can also help me manage my assets. Let's work together, grow bigger and stronger, and create new glories!"

"I'm sorry, I have no intention of cooperating with potential criminals; this is just a deal."

"A fair deal. Look, the price I charged was so low, and I even helped you win the case. I think we could really work together more deeply, lawyer."

"Who exactly are you, Mr. Hayashi Ichiro?"

"Hehe, as you can see, I'm just a city hunter, Mr. Hiromi Hitsugaya. If you've thought it over and know how to contact me, just write XYZ on the blackboard at Shinjuku subway station. I'll be waiting for your good news."

Lin Yi released his arm from Nichiche Hiroki's, watched his client Nichiche Hiroki merge into the crowd, then turned around, put his hands in his pockets, and hummed a little tune as he returned to the scene of the incident.

Seeing the worker, Kiyotaka Ijichi, with a bitter and resentful expression, appear, she brushed past him.
