At the high point.

Makima silently raised her right arm: "Jiye, no matter what happens next, do not disturb me until I declare it over, and do not let anyone enter this room."

After saying that, Makima opened her five fingers towards Hayakawa Kiyo, who was dancing with rage under the torture of the flames but still insisted on giving a speech. "It would be bad if you revealed this to the police~"

"Kira, is this what you want to achieve? Through the mouth of Hayakawa Kiyo, who is at the center of the vortex, to expose the darkness of the entire Japanese government..."

"It's a pity that I can't let you do this~ Death, who resides in Hayakawa Kiyo's body, stop and tell me your origin!"

"This is... an order!"

Golden ripples rushed towards Hayakawa Kiyo with overwhelming momentum. Invisible spiritual chains stretched and spread from Makima's spine, covering the sky of the entire venue like a block of the sun, entwined and intersected at the sun, and then suddenly refracted towards Hayakawa Kiyo.

Obviously nothing happened, nothing appeared, but Ji Ye beside him felt that the sun above his head dimmed, and the cold air spread throughout the venue.

The golden ripples struck Hayakawa Kiyo's brow, and a tremendous force exploded, shattering his soul. Layer upon layer of chains surged towards him, centered on the sun, tightly locking onto his limbs and continuously attacking his body.

There is only one goal for all.

That was the power of death that dominated Hayakawa Kiyo's every action from the depths of his soul. His pained expression was instantly relieved, and the dark secret he was about to reveal slipped away, leaving him standing there in a daze.

"Uh-huh-"

"Ababa——"

A meaningless growl emanated from his mouth, and his entire face suddenly became distorted, physically. It was as if Tai Chi was stirring in his brain, with both halves of his face in a fierce struggle, each part irrelevant to the other. Karmic fire continued to spread across his body, and he collapsed to the ground, twitching non-stop, as if possessed by a demon.

……

……

Light Yagami sat obediently in the rear of the Wuling Hongguang. The front row was packed with burly men, and perhaps because Light Yagami's appearance was so deceptive, resembling a frail student, they felt comfortable placing him in the last row.

After all, they didn't dare use too harsh methods. They just had to take him back to the prison to clear his suspicion. Only this one person would be released. And it wasn't a blatant kidnapping, but they offered him a ride under the pretext of "stopping by the Metropolitan Police Department."

[Son of the former Superintendent of Police, brother of the current Superintendent of Police]

If it weren't for the death order from above, they wouldn't dare to move. Please politely go back and investigate, then politely apologize and send them back. Otherwise... it's hard to say whether this will be defined as a crackdown on organized crime or counter-terrorism.

The crackdown on organized crime requires the police to investigate and collect evidence, and then arrest these gang members. But if it's counter-terrorism...

To show their politeness, they didn't even take away Light Yagami's cell phone, leaving him to entertain himself in the back seat with a piece of paper in one hand and his cell phone in the other.

The bread man secretly rejoiced, yet couldn't help but scoff internally. He was being kidnapped, and he was still watching the news? He even looked like he was taking notes! This was hilarious. He must have been idiot from studying! It was a good thing he dropped out early. Otherwise, he wouldn't know how he'd face his ancestors if he'd become this bookworm.

They didn't notice that Light Yagami's expression gradually became solemn from relaxed and happy at the beginning.

On the phone screen, Hayakawa Noriyo, twitching non-stop on the podium, wasn't following his planned scenario. Furthermore, the words on the Death Note, like decaying Buddhist text, became ethereal and blurry, poised to be blown away by the wind.

Yagami Light realized that the public security officers had taken action. This was a situation he had never encountered before. If he didn't do something, he was afraid that something unexpected would happen...

But, Light Yagami had a pen and paper in his hand, so how could he let the public security officers follow Hayakawa Kiyo to find him?

Light Yagami's lips curled slightly. Using Makima's brown paper file as a pad, he uncapped his pen and gently pressed the tip of the pen against the white paper. Just as the name was about to vanish in the wind, Light Yagami moved, repeatedly writing Hayakawa Kiyo's name on the white paper.

Light Yagami's handwriting was powerful, piercing through the paper. The name written on the notebook held an eerie beauty. The name and cause of death, previously swaying like the wind, suddenly ceased their movement. They became docile, like a tamed pet.

Makima's Sea of ​​Consciousness.

The singularity emitting black light was within reach. Makima placed her hand on it with a look of delight, preparing to read all the information within.

"Come on... tell me the answer~"

But the moment it prepared to invade, the singularity exploded like a supernova, emitting a burst of black light several times more powerful than before, annihilating the invading Makima. It didn't even hold out for a moment before being swallowed by the black light.

The sea of ​​spirit returns to nothingness again.

Back to the real world.

"cough--"

Makima suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, splattering the floor. As if struck by an invisible shockwave, she stumbled back a few steps, crashing into the chair behind her. Then, limp and slumping against the chair, she slid down the back. Her head tilted, her face pale, her eyes vacant, and the blood gushing from the corner of her mouth betrayed her current state.

The golden lines in his eyes, as majestic as the sun, continued to spread and condensed into a single point. This tragic scene was like the spark that Taro saved with his life during the battle to protect the Plasma Spark Tower.

But Makima is not Taro, and this last spark could not withstand the erosion of death and was extinguished invisibly.

September 9, 09:19 — Machima, dead

"..."

"what?"

Ji Ye stood by, dumbfounded. How could the passive state of being isolated and helpless be triggered in the blink of an eye? What on earth...had happened?

Not knowing Makima's exact condition, Ji Ye asked tentatively, "M-Ms. Makima?"

Ji Ye swallowed stiffly, moved closer to Makima, and placed a finger about two inches in front of Makima's nose. The air movement she hoped for didn't respond.

The only response she got was dead silence.

"Miss Makima...is dead?"

The outside world is bustling with activity, but the inside is like falling into an icy cave.

Although he did not approve of Makima's cruelty and almost evil methods, but... Miss Makima was a correct and pragmatic boss. Apart from the time of the task, she was also very gentle to her subordinates. There was no doubt about that.

But now, Miss Makima died right in front of him? Died at Kira's hands?!

One after another, the truly capable, capable, and willing police officers left Ji Ye's side. This world is so cruel that it makes people feel despair...

"No, no, forgiveness! Kira, I must, must arrest you, you bastard!" Ji Ye growled with red eyes and gritted teeth.

The fire man on the platform was completely engulfed, thrashing about frantically, howling. The terrifying flames, like a beast mounted by a god, threatened to consume the entire venue, mercilessly devouring everything around it. The orange-red glow of the flames illuminated the eyes of everyone below, and the entire venue suddenly became chaotic. Thick smoke transformed into invisible, deadly chains, rapidly descending upon everyone.

The air was filled with the unpleasant smell of the burning Apocalypse Virus, pungent and suffocating. The flammable support materials around them were ignited by Hayakawa Kiyo's karmic fire, and the flames reflected on his face, which had completely lost its human form.

The connection of the huge plaque of [Aum Shinrikyo] was also burned off, and the huge plaque fell down, smashing Hayakawa Kiyo heavily under her body.

Machima's dominance would not cease with her death. Even if she died, those who were commanded would still faithfully carry out her orders. Naturally, the order Machima gave him included "staying alive."

But this time, the power of death within him was so strong that it threatened to materialize and overflow from his body, completely overwhelming Makima's control. There would be no repeat of the previous situation where his soul died while his body survived.

Simply put, death is inevitable! But before death, constrained by the command to live, the body will continuously provide the motivation to survive until all the survival potential of the flesh is completely drained.

The body repeats a cycle of self-repair and then burning and necrosis. Before being drained dry, it is unable to live or die.

The situation was very good for the police, but it was instantly reversed with Machima's fall.

Blessings are unparalleled, and misfortunes do not come singly.

There was no time to grieve over Miss Makima's unexpected death, as bad news came one after another to the center of the chaos.

Just as Ji Ye's mind was in chaos, a rapid cell phone ring came into her ears.

Here comes the bad news.

Ji Ye is a meticulous person. While ordering the investigation of the five tainted families, he also ordered the monitoring of the movements of the Truth Church.

"Inspector Himeno, something bad has happened. About half an hour ago, members of the Shinrikyo Autonomous Division, whom we are responsible for monitoring, carried out a large-scale kidnapping in Chiba. We have monitored a total of ten cases so far, and due to lack of manpower, we have not been able to track many more."

"Inspector Himeno, this is bad! Light Yagami, a contact of the tainted family Yukinoshita Haruno, was just kidnapped and put into a Wuling Hongguang van. Please give me instructions on what to do next!"

"Inspector Himeno, something bad has happened! The Chiba Shinrikyo dojo has been alerted, and a large number of members with tattoos have entered the venue."

"Ji..."

A large amount of complicated information filled Ji Ye's mind like an infinite space, but she still captured the most critical one.

"You said Light Yagami was kidnapped?"

"Yes, yes! The license plate number is..."

The square-faced detective on the other end of the line reported with a serious expression that he hadn't seen the entire incident, only superficially noticing that Light Yagami was being "dragged" into the car. The implications of this were self-evident. Without a doubt, this was a kidnapping case!

"Why would the Truth Cult members kidnap a high school student? Is there some hidden secret behind this?"

You have to know that Light Yagami's identity is enough to be called a second-generation official with a clean family background. Are the people of the Truth Cult crazy enough to kidnap such a second-generation rich man?

The square-faced detective's suspicions about Light Yagami grew even stronger. He warned, "Inspector Himeno, although this speculation is difficult to accept, the possibility that Light Yagami is Kira has greatly increased. Otherwise, he would have no reason to kidnap a high school student like this."

"Do not."

Ji Ye flatly rejected his speculation, and it wasn't his fault. Putting aside the fact that she had personally verified Light Yagami, the possibility that it was Kira was infinitely close to zero. Even if there was a possibility, it was only a fraction of a percent due to sheer coincidence.

Fourteen kidnappings were also occurring simultaneously. The Chiba Shinrikyo's frenzied kidnappings must have a purpose. As for their motive, Ji Ye's CPU had already begun running at full speed and overclocking, but their true purpose remained unknown.

For this reason, Ji Ye decided to follow his heart.

Putting aside the fact that Light Yagami is the orphan of her most respected Lord Soichiro, and Miss Makima's adopted brother or son, the Metropolitan Police Department, the Public Security Bureau, and even the entire police force need fresh blood like Light Yagami who has a correct outlook on life and a strong sense of justice.

Even if it's not Light Yagami, as long as it's the fresh blood the police force needs, Himeno will choose to rescue them without hesitation and at any cost!

Therefore, nothing must happen to Light Yagami!

"Light Yagami can't be Kira." Ji Ye was the first to make a conclusion on this matter, and spoke quickly: "Follow him and save him. You must ensure Light Yagami's safety, I mean definitely!"

"If you need help, call for reinforcements from the local Chiba police station! If they're unwilling to go, issue a public security order! In the name of arresting Kira, rescue the hostages at all costs!"

"...Yes, I understand. I promise to complete the task!"

The square-faced policeman was clearly startled by Ji Ye's harsh tone and quickly responded. Complete the mission first, then question. This was the way of life for secret police officers affiliated with the Public Security Bureau.

After quickly explaining the order regarding Light Yagami, Himeno also ordered Chiba's police to surround the Shinrikyo compound. If they can't catch Kira, can they catch you, a Shinrikyo branch?

After spending so much time with Miss Makima, Himeno's judgment and guessing abilities were fully developed. The most important thing was that Kira's orders were absolute.

Based on this entry, Hayakawa Kiyo's confession on the podium must have been true.

How horrific! Kidnapping, live experiments, the purification and suppression of the Apocalypse virus... and the darkness that Makima had organized before he even spoke of it. Compared to this, Kira's crimes of wanton massacre of criminals can be put aside.

"This guy should all go to hell under the judgment of the law!"

Ji Ye's face was gloomy, and his mood was extremely bad. The ghost demon behind him was looming, sensing his master's emotions, and punched the wall hard, venting his anger, and a huge crack appeared.

Ji Ye's mood finally calmed down.

At the moment of Miss Makima's accidental death, at least in Tokyo, she was the absolute leader of the Public Security Anti-Magic Section 4. She could use the power in Makima's hands to stage an operation of "issuing an edict with the corpse of the First Emperor" and preside over the operation to capture Kira.

Sometimes, she also wants to be a little willful.

If legal proceedings were to be taken, investigating the Shinrikyo would undoubtedly be a massive undertaking. Even if it were just a branch in Chiba, a search warrant and other cumbersome procedures would still be necessary. And this was despite Hayakawa Kiyo revealing such damaging information... A normal investigation would inevitably fail due to the numerous obstacles.

But even so, by the time the search warrant came down, the evidence hidden in the Chiba Shinrikyo venue had already been destroyed and moved.

Slow, slow, slow, too slow!

Ji Ye clenched her fists. One of Makima's words was deeply engraved in her heart.

They acted first and reported later to the demon police, which was a special permission from the government.

Arresting Kira was the highest order received by the Public Security Anti-Magic Section 4 and the highest privilege granted by the Chief Cabinet Secretary.

When a super-powered criminal appears who threatens the top figures, in a sense, their Demonic Police will transform into a privileged department that is above order and can completely trample on normal legal procedures.

Such power is boundless and unchecked. Anyone who dares to stand in their way would be antagonizing the entire elite interest group. A horizontal comparison would be like the Jinyiwei of ancient China or the prosecutors of neighboring South Korea...

In the past, Ji Ye hated such behavior of trampling on the rule of law the most, but now, it seems that it has reached the point where he has to do it.

"So be it……"

Ji Ye's face was sullen, and he had already thought of a plan. He immediately announced that Kira was hiding in the Chiba Shinrikyo base and requested a search.

Anyone who dares to stop us will be considered harboring Kira and will be killed on the spot!

"Well……"

But at this moment, a voice that surprised the blackened Ji Ye sounded in his ears.

Jiye turned around in surprise, only to see Miss Makima, whom she had just believed dead, sitting up straight again. Her dull eyes were now bright again, but the bloodstains on her black coat told Jiye that what had just happened was real, not just a fantasy.

So... Miss Makima is back from the dead?

How is this going? !
