In this crossover anime, Yoshikage Kira longs for a peaceful life.

Terada Tokunosuke and Yumbara Saki immediately tensed up and, guided by Gasai Yuno, discovered the door leading to the basement.

For some reason, as soon as they opened the door, they immediately felt a chilling aura rushing towards them.

hiss!

Terada Tokunosuke shivered and looked at Yumbara Saki, who nodded solemnly at him.

Terada Tokunosuke silently reached for his waist, though it was probably useless, it would at least give him a sense of reassurance.

Thump! Thump thump!

The two walked down the stairs step by step and soon found the switch for the basement light.

Snapped!

The bright light dispelled the darkness, allowing the two to see the entire basement.

Nothing.

There was no clutter, nor the expected corpses or any horrific scenes.

It was just an empty space, with nothing there.

However, Terada Tokunosuke and Yumbara Saki's expressions became extremely serious.

"Did you see that?"

Terada Tokunosuke asked in a deep voice.

"Ok!"

Saki Yumbara took a deep breath, staring intently at the remaining traces in the basement—

Although there was nothing there, they could clearly see the traces left behind, traces of filth!

Yumbara Saki quietly approached Terada Tokunosuke, lowering her voice:

"Even though a long time has passed, the filth here is still so concentrated that it affects the surrounding environment. This is definitely not an ordinary curse master!"

"Then it's almost certain that this is the primary crime scene."

Terada Tokunosuke rubbed his temples and let out a long sigh. "The girl wasn't implicated, probably because she was still in school at the time, or maybe she came home late. But my wife and her husband weren't so lucky. We probably won't find their bodies unless something unexpected happens."

Saki Yumihara stared at the remaining traces around her, frowned, and asked:

"Terada-senpai, do you think it might be an anti-intellectual cult?"

"Anti-intellectualism?"

Terada Tokunosuke frowned slightly and thought for a while. "It's hard to say. This doesn't fit the usual practices of the Anti-Intellectual Cult. It's more like those curse masters who take money to do things. It's more like the Wagatsu couple offended someone, and the other party directly hired a curse master to take action."

"Ha, after all, they are people from high society, they are very filthy."

"But it doesn't matter, it has nothing to do with us anyway, we just need to report it truthfully."

"So we're just going to ignore it?"

Saki Yumbara couldn't help but ask, "She's all alone now, and the people who killed her parents are likely still watching her in the shadows. She's in constant danger!"

"But what can you do?"

Terada Tokunosuke looked at his emotional junior and asked a question in return.

Saki Yumihara opened her mouth, but quickly fell silent.

"We're just the window!"

Terada Tokunosuke sighed, his tone somewhat helpless. "I would like to do something, but we are not true sorcerers after all. The only thing we can do is investigate the remnants; the rest can only be left to the professionals."

"Don't overthink it. Since she's still alive, it means the curse master who killed her parents has already left. That's pretty much in line with how curse masters operate—they only do what they're paid for. The mission was probably just to kill my wife and her husband. Since she's lucky enough to escape, the curse master probably won't bother her again, since nobody's paying him!"

Terada Tokunosuke gave a self-deprecating laugh; this was all they could do.

Investigating, comforting myself, making my conscience feel a little better.

That's it.

Despite her senior's words of comfort, Yumihara Saki kept her head down, looking somewhat dejected.

Are they really just supposed to stand by and watch?

Terada Tokunosuke said nothing more and turned to walk out of the basement.

Saki Nishikino asked in a low voice:

"Officers, is there anything in the basement?"

She glanced at the two girls in the living room out of the corner of her eye, afraid that they might overhear something unpleasant.

There was nothing there.

Terada Tokunosuke shrugged and reassured everyone, "However, based on the preliminary investigation results, this appears to be a kidnapping case, and the victim may still be alive. You don't need to worry too much; we will continue to follow up on the investigation."

Yumihara Saki had already left the basement, and upon hearing her senior's words of comfort, she lowered her head even further.

Is this really the case?

The couple is probably long gone, and the curse master has probably fled far away. What's the point of following up with an investigation?

She didn't dare linger, because she didn't know how to face Yuno Gasai's eyes.

Knowing that her parents had been murdered, he, as a police officer, was powerless to do anything about it. The guilt stemming from feelings of shame almost crushed the girl.

"Big sister,"

As Yumbara Saki approached the entrance, the girl in the living room spoke softly, "Thank you."

Yumihara Saki clenched her fists, didn't dare to look back, and left straight away.

Terada Tokunosuke sighed, then left the villa without lingering any longer.

"Yuno."

Saki Nishikino looked at the tragically fated girl in front of her with sympathy and asked gently, "Would you like to stay at my house for a while? Maki has just started high school and doesn't have many friends at her new school. I hope you can keep her company for a while."

She didn't dare to tell the truth directly, and she was worried that Yuno would refuse, so she had to make up a reason on the spot.

"Huh?"

Nishikino Maki blinked. Why are we suddenly talking about her?

"really?"

Yuno Gasai looked at Maki Nishikino with some surprise.

Nishikino Maki hesitated, not daring to refute under her mother's watchful gaze.

But what do you mean she doesn't have any friends?

How could she not have friends?

What?! The meaning is unclear!

This is utter slander!

"Yes, the classmates are not easy to get along with."

Nishikino Maki lowered her head and said weakly.

Saki Nishikino looked tenderly at Yuno Gasai, then leaned down and gently stroked the girl's cheek:

"Is it okay? It's just for a few days."

Yuno Gasai stared blankly at Saki Nishikino's hand.

Wow, she's so beautiful! Aunt Nishikino seems to be a doctor, right? And a famous one at that, running her own Nishikino General Hospital. Maki's hands are beautiful too; she must have studied piano for a few years, her fingers must be very nimble.

And there's also the mother-daughter buff, which is truly amazing.

Unfortunately, her mother's hands were not pretty at all, nor were they as gentle as Aunt Nishikino's.

Even though the mother is the one with the illness, she insists on using her as a punching bag. If she is even slightly dissatisfied with the child's performance, such as eating an extra grape, accidentally tripping over a chair, or failing a test one less time than usual, she will immediately lock the child in a cage.

She only wanted them to understand her feelings, which is why she locked them in the cage. But they were so inconsiderate; all they did was curse and demand that she let them out.

There's really no other way, so we'll just have to kill them.

But it's really lucky, his mother's hands aren't pretty at all, so killing her wouldn't make Kira feel sorry.

So why does Yoshikage Kira only like hands?

If this continues, even Yuno will turn into a pervert.

The girl's thoughts flashed through her mind, and she nodded obediently:

"Thank you, Aunt Nishikino."

She needed a pair of hands to help her hold up the House of Commons. Miku's hands were beautiful, but Miku had other sisters, which posed too great a threat.

Five babies? That's just too much!

Then we'll have to find someone else.

Hmm~ Maki is pretty good~.

Weak girls are the easiest to bully. Before giving them to Kira-kun to enjoy, let's train them properly first.

Aunt Saki is nice too, it's just a pity that her hands need frequent surgery, and they'll have a disinfectant smell, which won't do.

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

Shuchiin Academy, Class C, Year 1.

Kira Yoshikage's arrival went unnoticed by anyone.

Unlike at the beginning of the school year when rumors were flying everywhere, after more than a month of getting along.

The students in Class C of the first year generally understood that Yoshikage Kira was simply tall and his blond hair was natural; he wasn't the delinquent they imagined. However, due to his aloof personality, the students still didn't interact with him much.

But Yoshikage Kira was happy with it; it was exactly what he wanted.

That's how I got through junior high anyway.

In fact, he wouldn't have needed to do this if his height hadn't been so striking.

Kira Yoshikage gazed at the treetops outside the window; the cherry blossoms of May had long since faded, leaving only bare branches.

Although plants may have dazzling flowering periods in their life cycle, they spend most of their time alone and lonely.
